Kimco Realty® Announces First Quarter 2022 Results

Strong Operating Performance Generates Solid Growth –

  • Net Income Increases 23%
  • Funds From Operations* Increases 18%

Board Raises Quarterly Cash Dividend on Common Shares by 5.3% –

Raises 2022 Outlook –

Kimco Realty® (NYSE: KIM), North America’s largest publicly traded owner and operator of open-air, grocery-anchored shopping centers, including mixed-use assets, today reported results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2022. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, Kimco Realty’s net income available to the company’s common shareholders was $0.37 per diluted share and $0.30 per diluted share, respectively.

First Quarter Highlights:

  • Produced Funds From Operations (FFO) of $0.39 per diluted share, representing an 18.2% increase over the comparable period in 2021
  • Leased a total of 4.7 million square feet including 3.9 million square feet of renewals and option exercises
  • Grew pro-rata portfolio occupancy by 30 basis points sequentially to 94.7%, representing the highest sequential occupancy increase in a first quarter in over 10 years
  • Increased pro-rata anchor occupancy by 20 basis points sequentially to 97.3% with small shop occupancy improving by 70 basis points to 88.4%
  • Generated pro-rata, rental-rate leasing spreads of 18.6% for new leases on comparable spaces
  • Produced an 8.9% increase in Same-property Net Operating Income* (NOI), including redevelopments, over the same period a year ago
  • Lowered Net Debt to EBITDA* to 6.4x on a look-through basis, which includes outstanding preferred stock and the company’s pro-rata share of joint venture debt, representing the lowest reported leverage level since the company began disclosing this metric

“Our ongoing commitment to leasing, leasing, and leasing resulted in our team signing 4.7 million square feet which drove both sequential and year-over-year occupancy gains as well as strong NOI and FFO growth to start 2022,” commented Kimco Realty CEO Conor Flynn. “With tenant demand robust for stores that serve their respective communities as last-mile fulfillment and distribution locations, Kimco Realty remains well positioned to outperform in the coming years, as we remain committed to building additional long-term shareholder value.”

Financial Results:

Net income available to the company’s common shareholders for the first quarter of 2022 was $230.9 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, compared to $131.6 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2021. The year-over-year change is primarily attributable to an increase in consolidated revenues from rental properties of $143.8 million, partially offset by an increase in real estate taxes of $15.4 million and operating and maintenance costs of $22.7 million, primarily stemming from the merger with Weingarten Realty Investors (Weingarten) in August of 2021. In addition, there was a $60.7 million benefit from mark-to-market gains on marketable securities, primarily from change in the value of Albertsons Companies, Inc. (NYSE: ACI) common stock held by the company. Also impacting the change in net income were increases in depreciation and amortization of $55.4 million, interest expense of $9.3 million and general and administrative expenses of $5.5 million, all of which were primarily due to the aforementioned merger with Weingarten. The company also recognized a $7.2 million early extinguishment of debt charge in the first quarter of 2022 related to the prepayment of $500 million, 3.400% unsecured notes that were scheduled to mature in November 2022.

*Reconciliations of net income available to the company’s common shareholders to non-GAAP measures Nareit FFO, Same-property NOI and Net Debt to EBITDA are provided in the tables accompanying this press release.

Nareit FFO was $240.6 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, for the first quarter 2022 compared to $144.3 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, for the first quarter 2021.

Operating Results:

  • Pro-rata portfolio occupancy ended the quarter at 94.7%, representing an increase of 120 basis points year-over-year.
  • Increased the spread between Kimco Realty’s leased (reported) occupancy vs. economic occupancy to 310 basis points at the end of the period, representing $47 million of future rent.
  • Ended the quarter with pro-rata anchor occupancy of 97.3% and small shop occupancy of 88.4%, representing year-over-year increases of 110 basis points and 260 basis points, respectively.
  • Signed 653 leases totaling 4.7 million square feet with blended pro-rata rental-rate spreads on comparable spaces increasing 7.2%, and with rental rates for new leases up 18.6% and renewals and options growing 6.4%.

Transaction Activities:

  • During the first quarter, the company sold three shopping centers that were in joint ventures, totaling 626,000 square feet, for $81.9 million. The company’s pro-rata share of the sales price was $17.5 million.
  • Kimco Realty also separately sold four land parcels for $8.7 million. In addition, the company acquired the full interest in two adjacent parcels at existing centers for $18.4 million.

Capital Market Activities:

  • In February, the company issued $600 million of new, 10-year unsecured notes at a coupon of 3.200% that mature in April 2032. Subsequently, the company redeemed $500 million of 3.400% unsecured notes that were scheduled to mature in November 2022. As a result of this transaction, Kimco Realty recognized a $7.2 million early extinguishment of debt charge.
  • Ended the first quarter with approximately $2.4 billion of immediate liquidity, including full availability under the company’s $2.0 billion unsecured revolving credit facility, and $370 million of cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet. In addition, Kimco Realty’s investment in ACI, which is subject to certain lock-up provisions which are scheduled to fully expire in June of 2022, was valued at over $1.3 billion at quarter end.

Dividend Declarations:

As previously announced:

  • Kimco Realty’s board of directors declared a cash dividend of $0.20 per common share, representing a 5.3% increase from the prior quarterly dividend. The quarterly cash dividend on common shares, which is based on projected REIT taxable income, is payable on June 23, 2022 to shareholders of record on June 9, 2022.
  • The board of directors also declared quarterly dividends with respect to each of the company’s Class L and Class M series of cumulative redeemable preferred shares. These dividends on the preferred shares will be paid on July 15, 2022 to shareholders of record on July 1, 2022.

2022 Full Year Outlook:

There were no changes to the company’s guidance assumptions that were previously provided other than the better-than-expected actual results for the first quarter and the impact of the ($0.01) per share charge for the early extinguishment of debt. Based on these results and outlook for the remainder of 2022, the company has raised its full-year guidance ranges as follows:

(1)

The company considers Same Property NOI as an important operating performance measure because it is frequently used by securities analysts and investors to measure only the net operating income of properties that have been owned by the company for the entire current and prior year reporting periods. It excludes properties under redevelopment, development and pending stabilization; properties are deemed stabilized at the earlier of (i) reaching 90% leased or (ii) one year following a project’s inclusion in operating real estate. Same Property NOI assists in eliminating disparities in net income due to the development, acquisition or disposition of properties during the particular period presented, and thus provides a more consistent performance measure for the comparison of the company's properties. The company’s method of calculating Same Property NOI may differ from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

(2)

Amounts represent Kimco Realty's pro-rata share.

(3)

Amounts for the three months ended March 31, 2021, represent the Same Property NOIs from WRI properties, not included in the Company's reported NOI.
