Taubman Centers Announces Third Quarter Results

PR Newswire
posted: 32 DAYS 2 HOURS AGO

BLOOMFIELD HILLS, Mich., Oct. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Taubman Centers, Inc. (NYSE: TCO) today announced its financial results for the third quarter of 2009.

(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20080428/CLM116LOGO )

Net income (loss) allocable to common shareholders per diluted share (EPS) was $(1.77) for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, versus $0.17 for the quarter ended September 30, 2008. The 2009 results include the $2.00 per share impact of the previously announced impairment charges relating to The Pier Shops at Caesars (Atlantic City, N.J.) and Regency Square (Richmond, Va.). EPS for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $(1.39), versus $0.26 for the first nine months of 2008.

Adjusted Funds from Operations per diluted share (which excludes the 2009 impairment charges) was $0.74 for the quarters ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 respectively. Funds from Operations (FFO) was $(1.26) per diluted share for the quarter ended September 30, 2009.

Adjusted FFO (which excludes the 2009 impairment charges and the restructuring charge taken in the first half of the year) for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $2.13, an increase of 2.4 percent from $2.08 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. There were no adjustments during the first three quarters of 2008. FFO per share was $0.11 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.

"We're continuing to experience a tough retail environment," said Robert S. Taubman, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Taubman Centers. "As retailers rationalize locations, we have been very successful collecting lease cancellation income. This more than offset the declines in rents and recoveries during the quarter."

Operating Statistics in Line with Prior Guidance

Ending occupancy for Taubman's portfolio was 88.5 percent on September 30, 2009 versus 90.5 percent on September 30, 2008. Leased space was 91.0 percent on September 30, 2009 versus 92.4 percent on September 30, 2008.

Average rent per square foot in the company's 16 consolidated properties for the third quarter of 2009 was $42.36 versus $44.04 for the third quarter of 2008. For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, average rent per square foot in the consolidated properties was $43.47 versus $44.04 in the nine months ended September 30, 2008.

Mall tenant sales per square foot declined 8.0 percent from the third quarter of 2008. For the twelve months ended September 30, 2009, mall tenant sales per square foot was down 11.8 percent to $497 per square foot.

"The sales performance trend is the best we've reported since the third quarter of 2008," said Mr. Taubman. "In fact, the month of September, while down 2.9 percent, was significantly better than we have been reporting all year. We are hopeful that the improved sales trends mark the bottom of this cycle. As sales improve, our retailers will become more profitable. Eventually, this will be reflected in stronger leasing and operating results."

Guidance

The company previously announced adjusted FFO guidance in the range of $2.73 to $2.93 per diluted share, excluding the restructuring charge incurred in the first half of the year. Excluding the impact of the impairment and restructuring charges, the company is narrowing the range for adjusted FFO per share guidance to $2.88 to $2.93, the top of the previously announced range. FFO per diluted share is expected to be $0.87 to $0.92. The company is also narrowing its guidance for 2009 EPS to $(1.13) to $(1.03).

    (1) The three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2009 include
    impairment charges related to the write down of the book values of The
    Pier Shops and Regency Square to their fair values. The nine month period
    ended September 30, 2009 also includes a restructuring charge, which
    primarily represents the costs of termination of personnel. No similar
    charges were incurred in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008.

    (2) On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted Accounting Standards
    Codification (ASC) Topic 810, "Consolidation" as it relates to
    noncontrolling interests. Consequently, noncontrolling interests in
    consolidated subsidiaries with equity balances of less than zero are now
    allocated income equal to their ownership interests in the subsidiaries.
    Under previous accounting, because the net equity balances of the
    Operating Partnership and the outside partners in certain consolidated
    joint ventures were less than zero, the income attributed to the
    noncontrolling partners was equal to their share of distributions. The net
    equity of these noncontrolling partners is less than zero due to
    accumulated distributions in excess of net income and not as a result of
    operating losses. Net loss attributable to Taubman Centers, Inc. common
    shareowners for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 would
    have been $(153.0) million and $(146.9) million, respectively or $(2.88)
    and $(2.77) per common share, respectively if accounted for under the
    previous method of accounting for noncontrolling interests prior to the
    new accounting requirements. Certain 2008 amounts have been reclassified
    to conform with 2009 classifications.

    (3) Beneficial Interest in EBITDA represents the Operating Partnership's
    share of the earnings before interest, income taxes, and depreciation and
    amortization of its consolidated and unconsolidated businesses. The
    Company believes Beneficial Interest in EBITDA provides a useful indicator
    of operating performance, as it is customary in the real estate and
    shopping center business to evaluate the performance of properties on a
    basis unaffected by capital structure.

    The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT) defines
    Funds from Operations (FFO) as net income (computed in accordance with
    Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP)), excluding gains from
    extraordinary items and sales of properties, plus real estate related
    depreciation and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and
    joint ventures. The Company believes that FFO is a useful supplemental
    measure of operating performance for REITs. Historical cost accounting for
    real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets
    diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have
    historically risen or fallen with market conditions, the Company and most
    industry investors and analysts have considered presentations of operating
    results that exclude historical cost depreciation to be useful in
    evaluating the operating performance of REITs. FFO is primarily used by
    the Company in measuring performance and in formulating corporate goals
    and compensation.

    These non-GAAP measures as presented by the Company are not necessarily
    comparable to similarly titled measures used by other REITs due to the
    fact that not all REITs use common definitions. None of these non-GAAP
    measures should be considered alternatives to net income as an indicator
    of the Company's operating performance, and they do not represent cash
    flows from operating, investing, or financing activities as defined by
    GAAP.

    (4) Based on reports of sales furnished by mall tenants.

    the costs of termination of personnel. The Company discloses this Adjusted
    FFO due to the significance and infrequent nature of these charges. Given
    the significance of the charges, the Company believes it is essential to a
    reader's understanding of the Company's results of operations to emphasize
    the impact on the Company's earnings measures. The adjusted measures are
    not and should not be considered alternatives to net income or cash flows

    (1)  In the third quarter of 2009, the Company recognized impairment
    charges totaling $166.7 million on The Pier Shops and Regency Square to
    reduce their book values to their fair values. TRG's share of these
    impairment charges was $160.8 million.

    (2)  In 2009, the Company recognized a restructuring charge of $2.6
    million, which represents primarily the cost of terminations of personnel.

    (3)  Per share amounts for Funds from Operations are calculated using
    estimated average diluted shares, which include the impact of common stock
    equivalents. Per share amounts for net loss attributable to common
    shareholders are calculated using estimated average outstanding shares,
    which exclude the impact of common stock equivalents because the impact is
    anti-dilutive to net loss per share.
