RPT Realty Reports Third Quarter 2021 Results; Raises Full Year 2021 Outlook

  • Net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders for the third quarter 2021 of $24.0 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, compared to $(3.6) million, or $(0.05) per diluted share for the same period in 2020.

  • Obtained $500 million of additional capital commitments in November from GIC Private Limited (“GIC”) for the core grocery focused R2G Venture REIT LLC ("R2G") platform, bringing GIC's total commitment to $818.3 million for their 48.5% stake in the joint venture.

  • Closed or obtained commitments of new capital totaling approximately $670 million including the additional $500 million from GIC, $130 million of new fixed rate, unsecured private placement debt and $40 million of equity capital through the Company's at-the-market equity distribution agreement, reflecting the Company's access to multiple sources of capital to accretively fund its growth plans.

  • Closed on the acquisition of the Dedham shopping center in the Boston market for $131.5 million in October, resulting in year-to-date acquisitions of $499.4 million by the Company across nine multi-tenant open-air shopping centers in the high growth, target markets of Boston, Atlanta, Nashville and Tampa, demonstrating the power of RPT's three differentiated and complementary investment platforms.

  • Closed on the sale of Market Plaza on November 2, 2021 for $30.2 million, reducing the Company's exposure to the non-strategic Chicago market and capitalizing on current investor demand.

  • Signed a new 54,800 square foot investment grade grocer at Crofton Center in the Baltimore market. Subsequent to the end of the third quarter 2021, signed a 55,000 square foot expansion lease with the existing grocer for a new flagship prototype store at The Crossroads in the Miami market, enhancing the durability of the cash flows of these centers.

  • Generated comparable new lease spreads of 16.0% and 24.1% during the third quarter 2021 and on a trailing twelve month basis, respectively, demonstrating the embedded mark-to-market opportunity within the portfolio.

  • Increased the third quarter 2021 signed not opened balance to $3.8 million, up from $3.2 million last quarter.

NEW YORK, Nov. 03, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RPT Realty (NYSE:RPT) ("RPT" or the "Company") today announced its financial and operating results for the quarter ended September 30, 2021.

"Our success over the course of 2021 continues to be balanced across our leasing, investment and finance disciplines," said Brian Harper, President and CEO. "We again posted strong leasing volumes at attractive spreads during the quarter, while executing on almost $500 million of multi-tenant shopping center acquisitions across our strategic investment platforms. We also accessed multiple sources of capital including debt, equity and joint venture funds, allowing us to continue to accretively transform our portfolio through acquisitions and leasing, while further enhancing the durability of our cash flows."

FINANCIAL RESULTS

Net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders for the third quarter 2021 of $24.0 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, compared to $(3.6) million, or $(0.05) per diluted share for the same period in 2020. Funds from operations ("FFO") for the third quarter 2021 of $24.0 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, compared to $16.6 million, or $0.20 per diluted share for the same period in 2020.

Operating FFO for the third quarter 2021 of $24.4 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, compared to $15.2 million or $0.19 per diluted share for the same period in 2020. Operating FFO for the third quarter 2021 excludes certain net expense that totaled $0.4 million, primarily attributable to transaction costs. The change in Operating FFO was primarily driven by lower rental income not probable of collection and straight-line rent reserves and higher NOI from acquisitions completed in 2021. The benefit to the third quarter 2021 Operating FFO from reversals of prior period rental income not probable of collection was $0.8 million, or $0.01 per diluted share.

Same property NOI for the third quarter 2021 increased 9.6% compared to the same period in 2020. The increase was primarily driven by a decline in rental income not probable of collection and higher base rent, which contributed 9.9% and 1.1% to same property NOI growth, respectively, partially offset by lower net recovery income and higher non-recoverable expense.

OPERATING RESULTS

The Company's operating results include its consolidated properties and its pro-rata share of unconsolidated joint venture properties for the aggregate portfolio.

During the third quarter 2021, the Company signed 52 leases totaling 280,453 square feet. Blended re-leasing spreads on comparable leases were 8.2% with ABR of $15.93 per square foot. Re-leasing spreads on six comparable new and 31 renewal leases were 16.0% and 5.2%, respectively.

As of September 30, 2021, the Company had $3.8 million of signed not commenced ABR.

The table below summarizes the Company's leased rate and occupancy results at September 30, 2021, June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020.

Additionally, and as previously disclosed, on July 30, 2021, RGMZ closed on the acquisition of a Walgreens property in Las Vegas, Nevada for $4.7 million. In conjunction with the RGMZ acquisitions closed in the third quarter 2021, the Company invested $2.6 million in preferred equity directly with its RGMZ joint venture partners, Zimmer and Monarch, which will earn a fixed return of 7.0%.

FINANCING ACTIVITY

During the third quarter 2021, the Company sold 3.0 million common shares under its $100 million at-the-market ("ATM") equity distribution agreement at a weighted average price of $13.00 per share generating gross proceeds of $39.5 million. As of November 3, 2021, the Company had approximately $60.5 million available for future issuance of common shares under the ATM program.

Additionally, R2G entered into a rate lock agreement on a $12.8 million mortgage loan secured by the East Lake Woodlands shopping center and on a $16.3 million mortgage loan secured by the South Pasadena shopping center. The Company's pro-rata share of the loans is $6.6 million and $8.4 million, respectively. Both loans have 10-year terms and fixed interest rates of 2.94% and are expected to close in the fourth quarter 2021, subject to customary closing conditions.

Subsequent to September 30, 2021, the Company notified the lender of the Bridgewater Falls mortgage of its intent to repay the $51.4 million loan in full on November 8, 2021.

On October 8, 2021, the Company and its operating partnership entered into a note purchase agreement with certain institutional investors in a private placement transaction pursuant to which the operating partnership expects to issue (i) $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior guaranteed notes that mature on November 30, 2030, with a fixed interest rate of 3.70%, and (ii) $55.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior guaranteed notes that mature on November 30, 2031, with a fixed interest rate of 3.82%. The funding of the notes is expected to occur on or before December 22, 2021, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Proceeds from the sale of the notes are expected to be used to repay all of the operating partnership’s senior unsecured notes due in 2023 and 2024 with an aggregate principal amount of $116.5 million and weighted average interest rate of 4.33%. In connection with the repayment, the Company expects to recognize a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $9.3 million in the fourth quarter 2021.

2021 GUIDANCE

The Company is raising its 2021 operating FFO per diluted share guidance to $0.90 to $0.94 from $0.88 to $0.92 per diluted share.

The Company does not provide a reconciliation for non-GAAP estimates on a forward-looking basis, including the information under "2021 Guidance" above, where it is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and/or amount of various items that would impact net income attributable to common stockholders per diluted share, which is the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure. This includes, for example, acquisition costs and other non-core items that have not yet occurred, are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures provided without the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding GAAP financial measures.

The Company’s 2021 guidance reflects management’s view of current and future market conditions, including current expectations with respect to rental rates, occupancy levels, acquisitions and dispositions and debt and equity financing activities. To the extent actual results differ from our current expectations, the Company’s results may differ materially from the guidance set forth above. Other factors, as referenced elsewhere in this press release, may also cause the Company’s results to differ materially from the guidance set forth above.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements represent our expectations, plans or beliefs concerning future events and may be identified by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “continue,” “predict” or similar terms. Although the forward-looking statements made in this document are based on our good faith beliefs, reasonable assumptions and our best judgment based upon current information, certain factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Many of the factors that will determine the outcome of forward-looking statements are beyond our ability to predict or control. Currently, one of the most significant factors is the potential adverse effect of the current COVID-19 pandemic on the financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and performance of the Company and our tenants (including their ability to timely make rent payments), the real estate market (including the local markets where our properties are located), the financial markets and general global economy as well as the potential adverse impact on our ability to enter into new leases or renew leases with existing tenants on favorable terms or at all. The impact COVID-19 will continue to have, on the Company and its tenants is highly uncertain, cannot be predicted and will vary based upon the duration, magnitude and scope of the COVID-19 pandemic as well as the actions taken by federal, state and local governments to mitigate the impact of COVID-19, including social distancing protocols, restrictions on business activities and “shelter-in- place” and “stay at home” mandates. Additional factors which may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not limited to: our success or failure in implementing our business strategy; economic conditions generally and in the commercial real estate and finance markets specifically; the cost and availability of capital, which depends in part on our asset quality and our relationships with lenders and other capital providers; the Company's ability to consummate the acquisitions described herein on the anticipated timeline and terms, or at all; risks associated with bankruptcies or insolvencies or general downturn in the businesses of tenants; the potential adverse impact from tenant defaults generally or from the unpredictability of the business plans and financial condition of the Company's tenants, which are heightened as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic; the execution of rent deferral or concession agreements on the agreed-upon terms; our business prospects and outlook; changes in governmental regulations, tax rates and similar matters; our continuing to qualify as a REIT; and other factors detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), including in particular those set forth under “Risk Factors” in our latest annual report on Form 10-K and quarterly report on Form 10-Q, which you should interpret as being heightened as a result of the numerous and ongoing adverse impacts of COVID-19. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future.

(1) Amounts noted are included in Earnings from unconsolidated joint ventures.

(2) The total noncontrolling interest reflects OP units convertible on a one-of-one basis into common shares. The Company's net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 (largely driven by gain on sale of real estate), resulted in an income allocation to OP Units which drove an OP Unit ratio of $0.32 and $0.97, respectively (based on 1,881 and 1,897 weighted average OP Units outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively). In instances when the OP Unit ratio exceeds basic FFO, the OP Units are considered anti-dilutive, and as a result are not included in the calculation of fully diluted FFO and Operating FFO for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.
(3) 7.25% Series D Cumulative Convertible Perpetual Preferred Shares of Beneficial Interest, $0.01 par (“Series D Preferred Shares”) are paid annual dividends of $6.7 million and are currently convertible into approximately 7.0 million shares of common stock. They are dilutive only when earnings or FFO exceed approximately $0.24 per diluted share per quarter and $0.96 per diluted share per year. The conversion ratio is subject to adjustment based upon a number of factors, and such adjustment could affect the dilutive impact of the Series D convertible preferred shares on FFO and earnings per share in future periods. In instances when the Preferred Share ratio exceeds basic FFO, the Preferred Shares are considered anti-dilutive, and as a result are not included in the calculation of fully diluted FFO and Operating FFO for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and three and nine months ended September 30, 2020.
(4) For 2021, primarily costs associated with terminated acquisitions. For 2020, costs associated with a terminated acquisition and a terminated disposition.
(5) Amounts noted are included in General and administrative expense.
(6) For 2020, amounts noted are included in Other (expense) income, net.

Non-GAAP Financial Definitions

Certain of our key performance indicators are considered non-GAAP financial measures. Management uses these measures along with our GAAP financial statements in order to evaluate our operations results. We believe these measures provide additional and useful means to assess our performance. These measures do not represent alternatives to GAAP measures as indicators of performance and a comparison of the Company's presentations to similarly titled measures of other REITs may not necessarily be meaningful due to possible differences in definition and application by such REITs.

Funds From Operations (FFO)
As defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT), Funds From Operations (FFO) represents net income computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of operating real estate assets and impairment provisions on operating real estate assets or on investments in non-consolidated investees that are driven by measurable decreases in the fair value of operating real estate assets held by the investee, plus depreciation and amortization of depreciable real estate, (excluding amortization of financing costs). Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. We have adopted the NAREIT definition in our computation of FFO.

Operating FFO
In addition to FFO, we include Operating FFO as an additional measure of our financial and operating performance. Operating FFO excludes transactions costs and periodic items such as gains (or losses) from sales of non-operating real estate assets and impairment provisions on non-operating real estate assets, bargain purchase gains, severance expense, accelerated amortization of debt premiums, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, insured expenses, net, accelerated write-offs of above and below market lease intangibles, accelerated write-offs of lease incentives and bond interest proceeds that are not adjusted under the current NAREIT definition of FFO. We provide a reconciliation of FFO to Operating FFO. In future periods, Operating FFO may also include other adjustments, which will be detailed in the reconciliation for such measure, that we believe will enhance comparability of Operating FFO from period to period. FFO and Operating FFO should not be considered alternatives to GAAP net income available to common shareholders or as alternatives to cash flow as measures of liquidity.

While we consider FFO available to common shareholders and Operating FFO available to common shareholders useful measures for reviewing our comparative operating and financial performance between periods or to compare our performance to different REITs, our computations of FFO and Operating FFO may differ from the computations utilized by other real estate companies, and therefore, may not be comparable. We recognize the limitations of FFO and Operating FFO when compared to GAAP net income available to common shareholders. FFO and Operating FFO available to common shareholders do not represent amounts available for needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations, or other commitments and uncertainties. In addition, FFO and Operating FFO do not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and are not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs, including the payment of dividends.

Net Operating Income (NOI) / Same Property NOI / NOI from Other Investments
NOI consists of (i) rental income and other property income, before straight-line rental income, amortization of lease inducements, amortization of acquired above and below market lease intangibles and lease termination fees less (ii) real estate taxes and all recoverable and non-recoverable operating expenses other than straight-line ground rent expense, in each case, including our share of these items from our unconsolidated joint ventures.

NOI, Same Property NOI and NOI from Other Investments are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures of real estate companies' operating performance. Same Property NOI is considered by management to be a relevant performance measure of our operations because it includes only the NOI of comparable operating properties for the reporting period. Same Property NOI for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 represents NOI from the Company's same property portfolio consisting of 42 consolidated operating properties and our 51.5% pro-rata share of five properties owned by our R2G Venture LLC unconsolidated joint venture and 100% of the 27 properties owned by our RGMZ Venture REIT LLC unconsolidated joint venture (excludes one property that is part of our Rivertowne Square multi-tenant property where activities have started in preparation for redevelopment). All properties included in Same Property NOI were either acquired or placed in service and stabilized prior to January 1, 2020. We present Same Property NOI primarily to show the percentage change in our NOI from period to period across a consistent pool of properties. The properties contributed to RGMZ Venture REIT LLC had previously been parts of larger shopping centers that we own. Accordingly, 100.0% of the NOI from these properties is included in our results for periods on or prior to March 4, 2021 and, for these prior periods, we had not separately allocated expenses attributable to the larger shopping centers between these properties and the remainder of these shopping centers. As a result, in order to help ensure the comparability of our Same Property NOI for the periods presented, we are continuing to include 100.0% of the NOI from these properties in our Same Property NOI following their contribution even though our pro rata share following March 4, 2021 is only 6.4%. Same Property NOI excludes properties under redevelopment or where activities have started in preparation for redevelopment. A property is designated as a redevelopment when planned improvements significantly impact the property. NOI from Other Investments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 represents NOI primarily from (i) Webster Place and Rivertowne Square where the Company has begun activities in anticipation of future redevelopment, (ii) certain property related employee compensation, benefits, and travel expense and (iii) noncomparable operating income and expense adjustments. Non-RPT NOI from RGMZ Venture REIT LLC represents 93.6% of the properties contributed to RGMZ Venture REIT LLC after March 4, 2021, which is our partners’ share of RGMZ Venture REIT LLC.

RPT Realty
Non-GAAP Financial Definitions (continued)

NOI, Same Property NOI and NOI from Other Investments should not be considered as alternatives to net income in accordance with GAAP or as measures of liquidity. Our method of calculating these measures may differ from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

Net Debt
Net Debt represents (i) our total debt principal, which excludes unamortized premium and deferred financing costs, net, plus (ii) our finance lease obligation, plus (iii) our pro-rata share of total debt principal of each of our unconsolidated entities, less (iv) our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, less (v) our pro-rata share of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of each of our unconsolidated entities. We present net debt to show the ratio of our net debt to our proforma Adjusted EBITDA.

EBITDAre/Adjusted EBITDA
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 operating 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. The Company also presents Adjusted EBITDA which is EBITDAre net of other items that we believe enhance comparability of Adjusted EBITDA across periods and are listed as adjustments in the applicable reconciliation. EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative measure of operating results or cash flow from operations as determined in accordance with GAAP.

Pro-Rata
We present certain financial information on a “pro-rata” basis or including “pro-rata” adjustments. Unless otherwise specified, pro-rata financial information includes our proportionate economic ownership of each of our unconsolidated joint ventures derived on an entity-by-entity basis by applying the ownership percentage interest used to arrive at our share of the net operations for the period consistent with the application of the equity method of accounting to each of our unconsolidated joint ventures. See page 33 of our quarterly financial and operating supplement for a discussion of important considerations and limitations that you should be aware of when reviewing financial information that we present on a pro-rata basis or include pro-rata adjustments.

Occupancy
Occupancy is defined, for a property or group of properties, as the ratio, expressed as a percentage, of (a) the number of square feet of such property economically occupied by tenants under leases with an initial term of greater than one year, to (b) the aggregate number of square feet for such property.

Leased Rate

Lease Rate is defined, for a property or group of properties, as the ratio, expressed as a percentage, of (a) the number of square feet of such property under leases with an initial term of greater than one year, including signed leases not yet commenced, to (b) the aggregate number of square feet for such property.

Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA)
Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) information is sourced from the United States Census Bureau and rank is determined based on the most recently available population estimates.
