Urban Edge Properties (NYSE:UE) (the "Company") today announced its results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021.

Financial Results(1)(2)

  • Generated net income attributable to common shareholders of $42.5 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, for the quarter compared to $19.0 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2020. For the year ended December 31, 2021, net income attributable to common shareholders increased to $102.7 million, or $0.88 per diluted share, from $93.6 million, or $0.79 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2020.
  • Generated Funds from Operations applicable to diluted common shareholders ("FFO") of $67.8 million, or $0.56 per share, for the quarter compared to $49.0 million, or $0.40 per share, for the fourth quarter of 2020. For the year ended December 31, 2021, FFO increased to $180.3 million, or $1.48 per share, from $156.3 million, or $1.27 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2020.
  • Generated FFO as Adjusted of $33.1 million, or $0.27 per share, for the quarter compared to $28.0 million, or $0.23 per share, for the fourth quarter of 2020. For the year ended December 31, 2021, FFO as Adjusted increased to $133.5 million, or $1.09 per share, compared to $107.5 million, or $0.88 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Operating Results(1)(3)

  • Increased same-property Net Operating Income ("NOI") including properties in redevelopment by 16.0% compared to the fourth quarter of 2020 and by 14.1% compared to the year ended December 31, 2020.
  • Increased same-property NOI excluding properties in redevelopment by 17.5% compared to the fourth quarter of 2020 and by 14.3% compared to the year ended December 31, 2020.
  • Reported same-property portfolio leased occupancy of 94.1%, an increase of 120 basis points compared to September 30, 2021 and of 250 basis points compared to December 31, 2020.
  • Reported consolidated portfolio leased occupancy of 88.8%, a decrease of 190 basis points compared to September 30, 2021 and of 60 basis points compared to December 31, 2020.

  • Collected 99% of fourth quarter base rents.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity(1)(4)

Balance sheet highlights as of December 31, 2021, include:

  • Total liquidity of approximately $820 million, comprised of $220 million of cash on hand and $600 million available under our revolving credit agreement.
  • Weighted average term to maturity of 4.9 years with $80.8 million of debt maturing in 2022.
  • Total market capitalization of approximately $4.0 billion comprised of 121.8 million fully-diluted common shares valued at $2.3 billion and $1.7 billion of debt.
  • Net debt to total market capitalization of 37%.

Leasing, Development and Redevelopment

The Company executed 271,000 sf of new leases, including a 134,000 sf lease with Kohl's at Bergen Town Center in the vacancy created as a result of Century 21's bankruptcy. The Company also executed a 20-year lease with Hackensack Meridian Health to build an 80,000 sf medical office building at Bergen Town Center on a vacant outparcel facing Route 4. The new building is subject to certain state and municipal approvals, which are expected to be received by the end of the year.

The Company commenced $81.2 million of redevelopment projects during the quarter and now has $218.7 million of active redevelopment projects under way, of which $146.6 million remains to be funded. These projects are expected to generate an approximate 8% unleveraged yield.

During the quarter, the Company stabilized two redevelopment projects aggregating $12.5 million. The 102,000 sf CubeSmart self-storage facility developed on excess land at Tonnelle Commons reached 87% occupancy. Additionally, the build-out of Fun City at our property in Salem, NH was completed and the tenant opened in November 2021.

The Company has signed leases that have not yet rent commenced that are expected to generate an additional $22 million of future annual gross rent, representing approximately 10% of current NOI. Approximately $6 million of this amount is expected to be recognized in 2022.

Acquisition and Disposition Activity

In December, the Company closed on the acquisition of Woodmore Towne Centre, a 712,000 sf grocery-anchored, regional shopping center in Glenarden, MD which includes an adjacent 22-acre land parcel, for a purchase price of $193.4 million. The initial unleveraged yield on this transaction is approximately 6.4%.

To fund the acquisition, the Company entered into a 10-year, $117.2 million non-recourse first mortgage secured by the property. The mortgage has a fixed interest rate of 3.39% and is interest-only for the entire loan term.

In December 2021, the Company disposed of its ground lease position in Vallejo, CA for a sales price of $2.4 million.

Dividend

On February 15, 2022, the Board of Trustees declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.16 per common share, resulting in an indicated annual rate of $0.64 per share, an increase of $0.04 per share or 6.7%, over the prior annual rate. The dividend will be payable on March 31, 2022 to common shareholders of record on March 15, 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses certain non-GAAP performance measures, in addition to the primary GAAP presentations, as we believe these measures improve the understanding of the Company's operational results. We continually evaluate the usefulness, relevance, limitations, and calculation of our reported non-GAAP performance measures to determine how best to provide relevant information to the investing public, and thus such reported measures are subject to change. The Company's non-GAAP performance measures have limitations as they do not include all items of income and expense that affect operations, and accordingly, should always be considered as supplemental financial results. Additionally, the Company's computation of non-GAAP metrics may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP metrics reported by other REITs or real estate companies that define these metrics differently and, as a result, it is important to understand the manner in which the Company defines and calculates each of its non-GAAP metrics. The following non-GAAP measures are commonly used by the Company and investing public to understand and evaluate our operating results and performance:

  • FFO: The Company believes FFO is a useful, supplemental measure of its operating performance that is a recognized metric used extensively by the real estate industry and, in particular real estate investment trusts ("REITs"). FFO, as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("Nareit") and the Company, is net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable real estate and land when connected to the main business of a REIT, impairments on depreciable real estate or land related to a REIT's main business and rental property depreciation and amortization expense. The Company believes that financial analysts, investors and shareholders are better served by the presentation of comparable period operating results generated from FFO primarily because it excludes the assumption that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably. FFO does not represent cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance, and is not indicative of cash flow as a measure of liquidity or our ability to make cash distributions.
  • FFO as Adjusted: The Company provides disclosure of FFO as Adjusted because it believes it is a useful supplemental measure of its core operating performance that facilitates comparability of historical financial periods. FFO as Adjusted is calculated by making certain adjustments to FFO to account for items the Company does not believe are representative of ongoing core operating results, including non-comparable revenues and expenses. The Company's method of calculating FFO as Adjusted may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.
  • NOI: The Company uses NOI internally to make investment and capital allocation decisions and to compare the unlevered performance of our properties to our peers. The Company believes NOI is useful to investors as a performance measure because, when compared across periods, NOI reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs and acquisition and disposition activity on an unleveraged basis, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income. The Company calculates NOI using net income as defined by GAAP reflecting only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level, adjusted for non-cash rental income and expense, and income or expenses that we do not believe are representative of ongoing operating results, if any. In addition, the Company uses NOI margin, calculated as NOI divided by total revenue, which the Company believes is useful to investors for similar reasons.
  • Same-property NOI: The Company provides disclosure of NOI on a same-property basis, which includes the results of properties that were owned and operated for the entirety of the reporting periods being compared, which total 68 properties for the quarters ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and 66 properties for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. Information provided on a same-property basis excludes properties under development, redevelopment or that involve anchor repositioning where a substantial portion of the gross leasable area ("GLA") is taken out of service and also excludes properties acquired or sold during the periods being compared. As such, same-property NOI assists in eliminating disparities in net income due to the development, redevelopment, acquisition or disposition of properties during the periods presented, and thus provides a more consistent performance measure for the comparison of the operating performance of the Company's properties. While there is judgment surrounding changes in designations, a property is removed from the same-property pool when it is designated as a redevelopment property because it is undergoing significant renovation or retenanting pursuant to a formal plan that is expected to have a significant impact on its operating income. A development or redevelopment property is moved back to the same-property pool once a substantial portion of the NOI growth expected from the development or redevelopment is reflected in both the current and comparable prior year period, generally one year after at least 80% of the expected NOI from the project is realized on a cash basis. Acquisitions are moved into the same-property pool once we have owned the property for the entirety of the comparable periods and the property is not under significant development or redevelopment. The Company has also provided disclosure of NOI on a same-property basis adjusted to include redevelopment properties. Same-property NOI may include other adjustments as detailed in the Reconciliation of Net Income to NOI and same-property NOI included in the tables accompanying this press release.
  • EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre: EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre are supplemental, non-GAAP measures utilized by us in various financial ratios. The White Paper on EBITDAre, approved by Nareit's Board of Governors in September 2017, defines EBITDAre as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), adjusted for interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation and amortization, losses and gains on the disposition of depreciated property, impairment write-downs of depreciated property and investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, and adjustments to reflect the entity's share of EBITDAre of unconsolidated joint ventures. EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre are presented to assist investors in the evaluation of REITs, as a measure of the Company's operational performance as they exclude various items that do not relate to or are not indicative of our operating performance and because they approximate key performance measures in our debt covenants. Accordingly, the Company believes that the use of EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre, as opposed to income before income taxes, in various ratios provides meaningful performance measures related to the Company's ability to meet various coverage tests for the stated periods. Adjusted EBITDAre may include other adjustments not indicative of operating results as detailed in the Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre included in the tables accompanying this press release. The Company also presents the ratio of net debt (net of cash) to annualized Adjusted EBITDAre as of December 31, 2021, and net debt (net of cash) to total market capitalization, which it believes is useful to investors as a supplemental measure in evaluating the Company's balance sheet leverage. The presentation of EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre is consistent with EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as presented in prior periods.

The Company believes net income is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to the non-GAAP performance measures outlined above. Reconciliations of these measures to net income have been provided in the tables accompanying this press release.

Operating Metrics

The Company presents certain operating metrics related to our properties, including occupancy, leasing activity and rental rates. Operating metrics are used by the Company and are useful to investors in facilitating an understanding of the operational performance for our properties.

Occupancy metrics represent the percentage of occupied gross leasable area based on executed leases (including properties in development and redevelopment) and include leases signed, but for which rent has not yet commenced. Same-property portfolio occupancy includes properties that have been owned and operated for the entirety of the reporting periods being compared, which total 68 properties for the quarters ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 and 66 properties for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. Occupancy metrics presented for the Company's same-property portfolio excludes properties under development, redevelopment or that involve anchor repositioning where a substantial portion of the gross leasable area is taken out of service and also excludes properties acquired within the past 12 months or properties sold during the periods being compared.

Executed new leases, renewals and exercised options are presented on a same-space basis. Same-space leases represent those leases signed on spaces for which there was a previous lease.

Weighted average diluted shares used to calculate FFO per share and FFO as Adjusted per share for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively are higher than the GAAP weighted average diluted shares as a result of the dilutive impact of LTIP and OP units which may be redeemed for our common shares.

(2)

During the fourth quarter of 2021, net income includes $33.5 million of accelerated amortization of below-market lease intangibles resulting from the termination of our leases with Kmart and Sears. For the year ended December 31, 2021, net income includes $45.9 million of accelerated amortization of below-market lease intangibles resulting from these terminations. The $44.5 million adjustment to FFO in calculating FFO as Adjusted is net of the $1.4 million attributable to the noncontrolling interest in Sunrise Mall.

(3)

 

Amount for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021 reflects final adjustments to local and state income taxes in connection with the debt transactions and legal entity reorganization at our malls in Puerto Rico in 2020. Amount for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2020 reflects the original estimated income tax benefit resulting from the debt and legal entity reorganization transactions.

(4)

Amount for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2020 includes transaction costs associated with the debt and legal entity reorganization transactions that occurred for the malls in Puerto Rico of $4.7 million and $5.7 million, respectively.
