Catellus Development Corporation (Catellus) hereby files this Current Report on Form 8-K in order to incorporate by reference its second quarter 2003 financial results into the Registration Statement on Form S-4 of Catellus SubCo, Inc. which was filed with the SEC on May 2, 2003 and subsequently amended. Catellus previously furnished the press release referenced below on a Current Report on Form 8-K under Item 12 on August 6, 2003.
Item 5. Other Events and Required FD Disclosure
On August 5, 2003, Catellus issued a press release reporting earnings per share (EPS) for the second quarter of 2003 of $0.21, compared to $0.37 for the same period in 2002. EPS for the six months ended June 30, 2003, was $0.47, compared to $0.73 for the same period in 2002.
Net income for the second quarter of 2003 was $19.3 million, compared to $33.6 million for the same period in 2002. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2003, was $42.7 million, compared to $65.1 million for the same period in 2002.
The decline in net income for the second quarter of 2003 is attributed to, in part, the acceleration of residential sales activity into the first half of last year, in combination with a desert land sale in the second quarter of 2002, partially offset by an increase in management fee income in the second quarter of 2003 and the growth of the core rental portfolio. In the press release, Nelson C. Rising, chairman and CEO of Catellus, said:
Year-to-date, sales activity has been down compared to the same period last year, however, we fully anticipate that sales activity for the full year 2003 will be in line with previous forecasts. We confirm our guidance of 10 percent growth in earnings per share for 2003, as adjusted for REIT conversion items.
The portfolio continues to perform well, even in light of this difficult environment. Leasing activity has been steady, and the rental portfolios occupancy rate at quarter-end was 94.4 percent, up 20 basis points from the same time last year, added Mr. Rising. Year-to-date, development completions total 2.3 million square feet, of which 1.2 million square feet is industrial property that was added to our rental portfolio at 100 percent occupancy, contributing to the quarters 13 percent increase in net operating income over the same period a year ago. Additionally, at June 30, 2003, the development pipeline totaled 4.4 million square feet of space, including 3.2 million square feet of predominantly industrial property that is 77 percent preleased and will be added to our rental portfolio upon completion-further enhancing our portfolios performance in coming quarters.
The previously announced restructuring of Catellus business operations, in order for it to qualify as a real estate investment trust (REIT), is in process. Following a stockholder vote that will occur later in the year, the conversion is projected to be effective January 1, 2004.

Rental Portfolio
| For the second quarter of 2003, net operating income (NOI) from the rental portfolio, including equity in earnings of operating joint ventures, increased 13.0 percent to $56.4 million, from $49.9 million for the same period in 2002. For the first half of the year, NOI from the rental portfolio, including equity in earnings of operating joint ventures, increased 12.9 percent to $113.6 million, from $100.6 million for the same period in 2002. |
| At June 30, 2003, the rental portfolio totaled 37.4 million square feet. The net increase of 687,000 square feet from March 31, 2003, is due to the completion of three development properties totaling 736,000 square feet, offset by the sale of one building totaling 50,000 square feet. |
| The 736,000 square feet of development properties completed and added to the rental portfolio during the second quarter of 2003 include three distribution warehouse facilities: a 97,000 square foot speculative facility in Portland, Oregon; a 171,000 square foot build-to-suit in Denver, Colorado; and a 468,000 square foot speculative building in Rancho Cucamonga, California. The three buildings are 100 percent leased and represent a total investment of $26.3 million with a projected return on cost of 10.8 percent. |
| At June 30, 2003, the rental portfolio occupancy was 94.4 percent, compared to 93.9 percent at March 31, 2003, and 94.5 percent at year-end 2002. |
Development and Investment Activity
| Construction starts during the second quarter of 2003 totaled 1.4 million square feet in five buildings, of which 1.3 million square feet in three buildings will be added to Catellus rental portfolio upon completion. Two buildings totaling 58,000 square feet are build-for-sale developments. |
| The 1.3 million square feet of construction starts during the quarter that will be added to Catellus rental portfolio upon completion include three industrial developments: a previously announced 450,000 square foot build-to-suit distribution warehouse for Kellogg USA, Inc., at Kaiser Commerce Center in San Bernardino County, California; a 617,000 square foot speculative building, also at Kaiser Commerce Center; and a 252,000 square foot build-to-suit distribution warehouse in Winchester, Virginia, transacted with Ford Motor Company in the second quarter of 2003. Following the completion of the Virginia development, Ford will lease 1.8 million square feet of distribution warehouse space at six Catellus properties. |
| At June 30, 2003, total construction in progress was 4.4 million square feet, of which 3.2 million square feet will be added to Catellus rental portfolio upon completion; 300,000 square feet is build-for-sale; and 880,000 square feet will be owned in joint ventures. |
| For the 3.2 million square feet under construction that will be added to Catellus rental portfolio upon completion, the projected total cost of development is $109.8 million. These buildings are 77 percent preleased, and when fully leased, they are projected to yield a return on cost of 10.0 percent. |
3
| During the quarter, a 600,000 square foot industrial building was completed in San Bernardino County, California, as a build-for-sale development for CB Richard Ellis Strategic Partners, L.P.; a 185,000 square foot office building was completed as a fee development for Anixter International in Glenview, Illinois; and in joint venture, a 118,000 square foot retail property was completed for lease to Home Depot in Avon, Colorado. |
| Residential lot and home sales through joint ventures during the quarter totaled 54. These sales included 33 lots at Serrano in El Dorado Hills, a suburb of Sacramento, California, and 21 homes at Talega in San Clemente, California. |
| During the quarter Catellus Residential Group (CRG) named Warmington Homes as its development partner at its Alameda Bayport residential project in Alameda, California. CRG closed with the city of Alameda and began site improvements on the first 190 lots of the 485-unit residential community, which CRG expects to deliver to the partnership entity for construction of homes by the end of 2003. |
| Subsequent to the quarter, and consistent with the companys stated objective to develop and operate property in the countrys largest distribution markets, Catellus expanded into northern New Jersey with the acquisition of a 24-acre land parcel. |
