Weingarten Realty Reports Second Quarter Results

Weingarten Realty (NYSE: WRI) announced today the results of its operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The supplemental financial package with additional information can be found on the Company's website under the Investor Relations tab.

Second Quarter Financial Highlights

  • Net income attributable to common shareholders (“Net Income”) for the second quarter was $0.10 per diluted share (hereinafter “per share”) compared to $0.09 per share in the second quarter of 2020 and $0.22 per share in the first quarter of 2021;
  • Core Funds From Operations Attributable to Common Shareholders ("Core FFO") for the quarter was $0.50 per share compared to $0.34 per share in the second quarter of 2020 and $0.48 per share in the first quarter of 2021;
  • Cash collections of rent and billable expenses were 97% of the total billed for the second quarter;
  • Dispositions in the quarter were $15.1 million bringing the year-to-date total to $70.9 million; and,
  • During the quarter, the Company signed a definitive merger agreement with Kimco Realty Corporation (“Kimco”) to create the premier open-air shopping center and mixed-use real estate company with 559 properties primarily concentrated in the top major metropolitan markets in the United States. The merger is currently scheduled to close on August 3, 2021, subject to customary closing conditions, including the approval of both Kimco’s and the Company’s shareholders. Subsequent to quarter-end, a special cash distribution of $0.69 per common share was declared which is payable on August 2, 2021 to shareholders of record on July 28, 2021. The special distribution is being paid in connection with the anticipated merger with Kimco and to satisfy the REIT taxable income distribution requirements. Under the terms of the merger agreement, the Company’s payment of the special distribution adjusts the cash consideration to be paid by Kimco at the closing of the merger from $2.89 per share to $2.20 per share, and does not affect the payment of the share consideration of 1.408 newly issued shares of common stock of Kimco for each WRI common share owned immediately prior to the effective time of the merger.

Financial Results

The Company reported Net Income of $12.7 million or $0.10 per share for the second quarter of 2021, as compared to $11.4 million or $0.09 per share for the same period in 2020. Revenue increased $0.16 per share due to a reduction in COVID related reserves and the initial write-offs of receivables for cash basis tenants. This increase was also enhanced by contributions to NOI from both our 2020 acquisitions and new development projects. This increase has been offset by an increase in expenses related to the merger of $.07 per share, as well as reductions of net income due to lower gain ($.06) on sale of property from the Company’s disposition program and a decrease in capitalized interest as new development projects approach completion.

The decrease in net income when compared to the prior quarter was due primarily to costs related to the merger of $0.07 per share and a reduction of gain on sale of property of $0.07 per share. Offsetting these decreases were higher revenues.

Year-to-date, Net Income was $40.7 million or $0.32 per share for 2021 compared to $64.0 million or $0.50 per share for 2020.

Funds From Operations attributable to common shareholders in accordance with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts definition (“NAREIT FFO”) was $56.0 million or $0.43 per share for the second quarter of 2021 compared to $43.9 million or $0.34 per share for the second quarter of 2020. Included in NAREIT FFO is $8.4 million of transaction costs and other expenses related to the pending merger with Kimco.

Core FFO was $64.4 million or $0.50 per share for the second quarter of 2021 compared to $43.9 million or $0.34 for the second quarter of 2020.

A reconciliation of Net Income to NAREIT FFO and Core FFO is included herein.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain aspects of our key performance indicators are considered non-GAAP financial measures. Management uses these measures along with our Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") financial statements in order to evaluate our operating results. Management believes these additional measures provide users of our financial information additional comparable indicators of our industry, as well as, our performance.

Funds from Operations Attributable to Common Shareholders

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") defines NAREIT FFO as net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of certain real estate assets (including: depreciable real estate with land, land, development property and securities), changes in control of real estate equity investments, and interests in real estate equity investments and their applicable taxes, plus depreciation and amortization related to real estate and impairment of certain real estate assets and in substance real estate equity investments, including our share of unconsolidated real estate joint ventures and partnerships. The Company calculates NAREIT FFO in a manner consistent with the NAREIT definition.

Management believes NAREIT FFO is a widely recognized measure of REIT operating performance, which provides our shareholders with a relevant basis for comparison among other REITs. Management uses NAREIT FFO as a supplemental internal measure to conduct and evaluate our business because there are certain limitations associated with using GAAP net income by itself as the primary measure of our operating performance. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP 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, management believes that the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that uses historical cost accounting is insufficient by itself. There can be no assurance that NAREIT FFO presented by the Company is comparable to similarly titled measures of other REITs.

The Company also presents Core FFO as an additional supplemental measure as it is more reflective of the core operating performance of our portfolio of properties. Core FFO is defined as NAREIT FFO excluding charges and gains related to non-cash, non-operating assets and other transactions or events that hinder the comparability of operating results. Specific examples of items excluded from Core FFO include, but are not limited to, gains or losses associated with the extinguishment of debt or other liabilities and transactional costs associated with unsuccessful development activities.

NAREIT FFO and Core FFO should not be considered as alternatives to net income or other measurements under GAAP as indicators of operating performance or to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as measures of liquidity. NAREIT FFO and Core FFO do not reflect working capital changes, cash expenditures for capital improvements or principal payments on indebtedness.

NAREIT FFO and Core FFO is calculated as follows (in thousands):

Same Property Net Operating Income

Management considers SPNOI an important additional financial measure because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level and when compared across periods, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. The Company calculates this most useful measurement by determining its proportional share of SPNOI from all owned properties, including the Company’s share of SPNOI from unconsolidated joint ventures and partnerships, which cannot be readily determined under GAAP measurements and presentation. Although SPNOI (see page 1 of the supplemental disclosure regarding this presentation and limitations thereof) is a widely used measure among REITs, there can be no assurance that SPNOI presented by the Company is comparable to similarly titled measures of other REITs. Additionally, the Company does not control these unconsolidated joint ventures and partnerships, and the assets, liabilities, revenues or expenses of these joint ventures and partnerships, as presented, do not represent its legal claim to such items.

Properties are included in the SPNOI calculation if they are owned and operated for the entirety of the most recent two fiscal year periods, except for properties for which significant redevelopment or expansion occurred during either of the periods presented, and properties that have been sold. While there is judgment surrounding changes in designations, management moves new development and redevelopment properties once they have stabilized, which is typically upon attainment of 90% occupancy. A rollforward of the properties included in the Company’s same property designation is as follows:

The Company calculates SPNOI using net income attributable to common shareholders excluding net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, other income (expense), income taxes and equity in earnings of real estate joint ventures and partnerships. Additionally to reconcile to SPNOI, the Company excludes the effects of property management fees, certain non-cash revenues and expenses such as straight-line rental revenue and the related reversal of such amounts upon early lease termination, depreciation and amortization, impairment losses, general and administrative expenses and other items such as lease cancellation income, environmental abatement costs, demolition expenses and lease termination fees. Consistent with the capital treatment of such costs under GAAP, tenant improvements, leasing commissions and other direct leasing costs are excluded from SPNOI. A reconciliation of net income attributable to common shareholders to SPNOI is as follows (in thousands):

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate

NAREIT defines EBITDAre as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, plus interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization and impairment of depreciable real estate and in substance real estate equity investments; plus or minus gains or losses from sales of certain real estate assets and interests in real estate equity investments; and adjustments to reflect our share of unconsolidated real estate joint ventures and partnerships for these items. The Company calculates EBITDAre in a manner consistent with the NAREIT definition.

As mentioned above, NAREIT FFO is a widely recognized measure of REIT operating performance which provides our shareholders with a relevant basis for comparing earnings performance among other REITs based upon the unique capital structure of each REIT. However as a basis of comparability that is independent of a company's capital structure, management believes that since EBITDA is a widely known and understood measure of performance, EBITDAre will represent an additional supplemental non-GAAP performance measure that will provide investors with a relevant basis for comparing REITs. There can be no assurance that EBITDAre as presented by the Company is comparable to similarly titled measures of other REITs.

The Company also presents Core EBITDAre as an additional supplemental measure as it is more reflective of the core operating performance of our portfolio of properties. Core EBITDAre is defined as NAREIT EBITDAre excluding charges and gains related to non-cash and non-operating transactions and other events that hinder the comparability of operating results. Specific examples of items excluded from Core EBITDAre include, but are not limited to, gains or losses associated with the extinguishment of debt or other liabilities, and transactional costs associated with unsuccessful development activities. EBITDAre and Core EBITDAre should not be considered as alternatives to net income or other measurements under GAAP as indicators of operating performance or to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as measures of liquidity. EBITDAre and Core EBITDAre do not reflect working capital changes, cash expenditures for capital improvements or principal payments on indebtedness.

EBITDAre and Core EBITDAre is calculated as follows (in thousands):
