Franklin Street Properties Corp. Announces Third Quarter 2023 Results

WAKEFIELD, Mass., November 07, 2023--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Franklin Street Properties Corp. (the "Company", "FSP", "we" or "our") (NYSE American: FSP), a real estate investment trust (REIT), announced its results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2023.

George J. Carter, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented as follows:

"As the fourth quarter of 2023 begins, we continue to believe that the current price of our common stock does not accurately reflect the value of our underlying real estate assets. We will seek to increase shareholder value by continuing to (1) pursue the sale of select properties where we believe that short to intermediate term valuation potential has been reached and (2) strive to increase occupancy through the leasing of vacant space. We intend to use proceeds from property dispositions primarily for debt reduction.

During the third quarter of 2023, on August 9, 2023, we sold our only single-story-flex office property, which contains approximately 64,198 square feet, located in Charlotte, North Carolina and known as Forest Park, for gross proceeds of $9,200,000, or approximately $143 per square foot. Subsequent to the end of the third quarter of 2023, on October 26, 2023, we sold an office property containing approximately 214,110 square feet located in Plano, Texas, known as One Legacy, for gross proceeds of $48,000,000, or approximately $224 per square foot.

As a result of our recent property dispositions and our ongoing operations, as of November 7, 2023, we had cash, or cash equivalents on our balance sheet of approximately $73,500,000. We intend to use these funds primarily for continued debt reduction. We are also currently engaged in discussions with our existing lender group regarding extending or refinancing our remaining debt and anticipate further property dispositions this year, which we estimate will result in additional aggregate gross proceeds ranging between $108,000,000 and $153,000,000. Proceeds from any additional property dispositions are also intended to be used primarily for debt reduction.

We look forward to the remainder of 2023 and beyond with anticipation and optimism."

Financial Highlights

• GAAP net loss was $45.7 million and $51.7 million, or $0.44 and $0.50 per basic and diluted share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.

• Funds From Operations (FFO) was $7.5 million and $23.0 million, or $0.07 and $0.22 per basic and diluted share, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.

Leasing Highlights

• During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we leased approximately 571,000 square feet, including 206,000 square feet of new leases.

• Our directly owned real estate portfolio of 19 owned properties, totaling approximately 6.0 million square feet, was approximately 74.8% leased as of September 30, 2023, compared to approximately 75.6% leased as of December 31, 2022. The decrease in the leased percentage is primarily a result of lease expirations and property dispositions, which was partially offset by leasing completed during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

• The weighted average GAAP base rent per square foot achieved on leasing activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was $29.35, or 7.2% higher than average rents in the respective properties for the year ended December 31, 2022. The average lease term on leases signed during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was 6.3 years compared to 6.4 years during the year ended December 31, 2022. Overall, the portfolio weighted average rent per occupied square foot was $31.46 as of September 30, 2023, compared to $30.48 as of December 31, 2022.

• We are currently tracking more than 900,000 square feet of new prospective tenants, including approximately 500,000 square feet of prospective tenants that have identified our properties on their respective short lists of potential locations.

• We believe that our continuing portfolio of real estate is well located, primarily in the Sunbelt and Mountain West geographic regions, and consists of high-quality assets with upside leasing potential.

Investment Highlights

• We remain committed to seeking to sell select properties during 2023 and using proceeds primarily for debt reduction.

• Since December 2020, we have completed the sale of properties resulting in gross proceeds of approximately $909 million and reflecting an average price per square foot of approximately $220.

• On August 9, 2023, we completed the sale of Forest Park in Charlotte, North Carolina for approximately $9.2 million in gross proceeds. On August 10, 2023, we used the net proceeds from this sale and cash on hand to repay $10 million of the BMO Term Loan.

• Subsequent to September 30, 2023, on October 26, 2023, we completed the sale of One Legacy in Plano, Texas for approximately $48 million in gross proceeds. Proceeds are intended to be used primarily for the repayment of debt.

• We have entered into purchase and sale agreements with three different (and unrelated) purchasers for the potential sale of three properties that would result in aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $153 million. The transactions remain subject to customary closing conditions, including without limitation, successful completion by one of the purchasers of a due diligence inspection period. If successful, the transactions are expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2023 and the proceeds are intended to be used primarily for the repayment of debt.

Dividends

• On October 6, 2023, we announced that our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend for the three months ended September 30, 2023, of $0.01 per share of common stock that will be paid on November 9, 2023, to stockholders of record on October 20, 2023.

Consolidation of Sponsored REIT

As of January 1, 2023, we consolidated the operations of our Monument Circle sponsored REIT into our financial statements. On October 29, 2021, we agreed to amend and restate our existing loan to Monument Circle that is secured by a mortgage on real estate owned by Monument Circle, which we refer to as the Sponsored REIT Loan. The amended and restated Sponsored REIT Loan extended the maturity date from December 6, 2022 to June 30, 2023 and was further extended to September 30, 2023 on June 26, 2023), increased the aggregate principal amount of the loan from $21 million to $24 million, and included certain other modifications. On September 26, 2023, the maturity date was further extended to September 30, 2024. In consideration of our agreement to amend and restate the Sponsored REIT Loan, we obtained from the stockholders of Monument Circle the right to vote their shares in favor of any sale of the property owned by Monument Circle any time on or after January 1, 2023. As a result of our obtaining this right to vote shares, GAAP variable interest entity (VIE) rules required us to consolidate Monument Circle as of January 1, 2023. A gain on consolidation of approximately $0.4 million was recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Additional information about the consolidation of Monument Circle can be found in Note 1, "Organization, Properties, Basis of Presentation, Financial Instruments, and Recent Accounting Standards – Variable Interest Entities (VIEs)" and Note 2, "Related Party Transactions and Investments in Non-Consolidated Entities - Management fees and interest income from loans", in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

A reconciliation of Net income to FFO, Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO) and Sequential Same Store NOI and our definitions of FFO, AFFO and Sequential Same Store NOI can be found on Supplementary Schedules H and I.

2023 Net Income, FFO and Disposition Guidance

At this time, due primarily to economic conditions and uncertainty surrounding the timing and amount of proceeds received from property dispositions, we are continuing suspension of Net Income, FFO and property disposition guidance (other than our expectations for property dispositions for the balance of the year set forth above).

Supplementary Schedule H
Reconciliation and Definitions of Funds From Operations ("FFO") and
Adjusted Funds From Operations ("AFFO")

A reconciliation of Net income to FFO and AFFO is shown below and a definition of FFO and AFFO is provided on Supplementary Schedule I. Management believes FFO and AFFO are used broadly throughout the real estate investment trust (REIT) industry as measurements of performance. The Company has included the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT) FFO definition as of May 17, 2016 in the table and notes that other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently. The Company’s computation of FFO and AFFO may not be comparable to FFO or AFFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that define FFO or AFFO differently.

Funds From Operations ("FFO")

The Company evaluates performance based on Funds From Operations, which we refer to as FFO, as management believes that FFO represents the most accurate measure of activity and is the basis for distributions paid to equity holders. The Company defines FFO as net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, hedge ineffectiveness, acquisition costs of newly acquired properties that are not capitalized and lease acquisition costs that are not capitalized plus depreciation and amortization, including amortization of acquired above and below market lease intangibles and impairment charges on mortgage loans, properties or investments in non-consolidated REITs, and after adjustments to exclude equity in income or losses from, and, to include the proportionate share of FFO from, non-consolidated REITs.

FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income or loss (determined in accordance with GAAP), nor as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance, nor as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP), nor as a measure of the Company’s liquidity, nor is it necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of the Company’s needs.

Other real estate companies and the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, may define this term in a different manner. We have included the NAREIT FFO as of May 17, 2016 in the table and note that other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do.

We believe that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of the results of the Company, FFO should be examined in connection with net income or loss and cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities in the consolidated financial statements.

Adjusted Funds From Operations ("AFFO")

The Company also evaluates performance based on Adjusted Funds From Operations, which we refer to as AFFO. The Company defines AFFO as (1) FFO, (2) excluding loss on extinguishment of debt that is non-cash, (3) excluding our proportionate share of FFO and including distributions received, from non-consolidated REITs, (4) excluding the effect of straight-line rent, (5) plus the amortization of deferred financing costs, (6) plus the value of shares issued as compensation and (7) less recurring capital expenditures that are generally for maintenance of properties, which we call non-investment capex or are second generation capital expenditures. Second generation costs include re-tenanting space after a tenant vacates, which include tenant improvements and leasing commissions.

We exclude development/redevelopment activities, capital expenditures planned at acquisition and costs to reposition a property. We also exclude first generation leasing costs, which are generally to fill vacant space in properties we acquire or were planned for at acquisition.

AFFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income or loss (determined in accordance with GAAP), nor as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance, nor as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP), nor as a measure of the Company’s liquidity, nor is it necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of the Company’s needs. Other real estate companies may define this term in a different manner. We believe that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of the results of the Company, AFFO should be examined in connection with net income or loss and cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities in the consolidated financial statements.

Reconciliation and Definition of Sequential Same Store results to property Net Operating Income (NOI) and Net Income

Net Operating Income ("NOI")

The Company provides property performance based on Net Operating Income, which we refer to as NOI. Management believes that investors are interested in this information. NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company defines as net income or loss (the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) plus general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, including amortization of acquired above and below market lease intangibles and impairment charges, interest expense, less equity in earnings of nonconsolidated REITs, interest income, management fee income, hedge ineffectiveness, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, gains or losses on the sale of assets and excludes non-property specific income and expenses. The information presented includes footnotes and the data is shown by region with properties owned in the periods presented, which we call Sequential Same Store. The comparative Sequential Same Store results include properties held for all periods presented. We exclude properties that have been placed in service, but that do not have operating activity for all periods presented, dispositions and significant nonrecurring income such as bankruptcy settlements and lease termination fees. NOI, as defined by the Company, may not be comparable to NOI reported by other REITs that define NOI differently. NOI should not be considered an alternative to net income or loss as an indication of our performance or to cash flows as a measure of the Company’s liquidity or its ability to make distributions. The calculations of NOI and Sequential Same Store are shown in the following table:

(b)		Nonrecurring Items in NOI include proceeds from bankruptcies, lease termination fees or other significant nonrecurring income or expenses, which may affect comparability.

*Excludes NOI from investments in and interest income from secured loans to non-consolidated REITs.
