Acquisition/Disposition Activity

During the quarter, Camden acquired a 15.9-acre land parcel in Richmond, TX for future development purposes. Subsequent to quarter-end, the Company acquired two land parcels for a combined acreage of 42.6 in Charlotte, NC for future development purposes.

The Company also disposed of a 245-apartment home community in Largo, MD during the quarter for approximately $71.9 million.

In April 2022, Camden purchased the remaining 68.7% ownership interests in two discretionary Funds for cash consideration of approximately $1.1 billion, after adjusting for our assumption of approximately $514 million of existing secured mortgage debt of the Funds, which remained outstanding. The Company now owns 100% of the interests in 7,247 apartment homes.

Capital Markets Transactions

During the quarter, the Company issued 159,368 common shares through its at-the-market (“ATM”) share offering program at an average price of $165.01 per share, for total net proceeds of approximately $26.2 million. Subsequent to quarter-end, Camden issued 2,900,000 common shares in a public equity offering and received approximately $490.3 million in net proceeds. The Company used the net proceeds to reduce borrowings under its $900 million unsecured line of credit.

Liquidity Analysis

As of March 31, 2022, Camden had approximately $1.5 billion of liquidity comprised of approximately $1.1 billion in cash and cash equivalents, and $385.4 million availability under its unsecured credit facility. Subsequent to quarter-end, the Company used all cash on-hand to fund the acquisition of the remaining 68.7% ownership interests of the two discretionary Funds discussed above. At quarter-end, the Company had $182.3 million left to fund under its existing wholly-owned development pipeline and no scheduled debt maturities until 3Q22.

Earnings Guidance

Camden updated its earnings guidance for 2022 based on its current and expected views of the apartment market and general economic conditions, and provided guidance for second quarter 2022 as detailed below. Expected EPS excludes, gains, if any, from real estate transactions not completed by quarter end.

(a)

We elected to combine lease and non-lease components and thus present rental revenue in a single line item in our consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recognized $311.4 million of property revenue which consisted of approximately $277.0 million of rental revenue and approximately $34.4 million of amounts received under contractual terms for other services considered to be non-lease components within our lease contracts. This compares to property revenue of $267.6 million recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2021, made up of approximately $235.8 million of rental revenue and approximately $31.8 million of amounts received under contractual terms for other services considered to be non-lease components within our lease contracts. Revenue related to utility rebilling to residents was $8.3 million and $7.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

DEFINITIONS & RECONCILIATIONS

(In thousands, except per share amounts)

(Unaudited)

This document contains certain non-GAAP financial measures management believes are useful in evaluating an equity REIT's performance. Camden's definitions and calculations of non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those used by other REITs, and thus may not be comparable. The non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indication of our operating performance, or to net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.

FFO

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) currently defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP")), excluding depreciation and amortization related to real estate, gains (or losses) from the sale of certain real estate assets (depreciable real estate), impairments of certain real estate assets (depreciable real estate), gains or losses from change in control, and adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures to reflect FFO on the same basis. Our calculation of diluted FFO also assumes conversion of all potentially dilutive securities, including certain non-controlling interests, which are convertible into common shares. We consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of operating performance because, by excluding gains or losses on dispositions of depreciable real estate, and depreciation, FFO can assist in the comparison of the operating performance of a company’s real estate investments between periods or to different companies. A reconciliation of net income attributable to common shareholders to FFO is provided below:

Adjusted FFO

In addition to FFO, we compute Adjusted FFO ("AFFO") as a supplemental measure of operating performance. AFFO is calculated utilizing FFO less recurring capital expenditures which are necessary to help preserve the value of and maintain the functionality at our communities. Our definition of recurring capital expenditures may differ from other REITs, and there can be no assurance our basis for computing this measure is comparable to other REITs. A reconciliation of FFO to AFFO is provided below:

Expected FFO

Expected FFO is calculated in a method consistent with historical FFO, and is considered an appropriate supplemental measure of expected operating performance when compared to expected earnings per common share (EPS). Guidance excludes gains, if any, from real estate transactions not sold as of quarter close due to the uncertain timing and extent of property dispositions and the resulting gains/losses on sales.

Net Operating Income (NOI)

NOI is defined by the Company as property revenue less property operating and maintenance expenses less real estate taxes. NOI is further detailed in the Components of Property NOI schedules on page 12 of the supplement. The Company considers NOI to be an appropriate supplemental measure of operating performance to net income attributable to common shareholders because it reflects the operating performance of our communities without allocation of corporate level property management overhead or general and administrative costs.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is defined by the Company as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, including net operating income from discontinued operations, excluding equity in (income) loss of joint ventures, (gain) loss on sale of unconsolidated joint venture interests, gain on acquisition of controlling interest in joint ventures, gain on sale of operating properties including land, loss on early retirement of debt, as well as income (loss) allocated to non-controlling interests. The Company considers Adjusted EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental measure of operating performance to net income attributable to common shareholders because it represents income before non-cash depreciation and the cost of debt, and excludes gains or losses from property dispositions. Annualized Adjusted EBITDA is Adjusted EBITDA as reported for the period multiplied by 4 for quarter results. A reconciliation of net income attributable to common shareholders to Adjusted EBITDA is provided below:
