"2016 was an excellent year for CBL. Operationally we generated improved growth from our higher-quality portfolio with a same-center NOI increase of 2.3% and a 120 basis point improvement in occupancy. The progress we've made on our disposition program and focus on reducing debt has resulted in a balance sheet that is stronger and more flexible than ever. We meaningfully reduced shorter-term, floating rate debt through a well-executed 10-year unsecured bond offering in December and applied asset sales proceeds and cash flow to debt reduction, ending the year with our lowest debt balance in ten years.
"2017 represents a year of reinvention for the CBL portfolio as we embark on a number of transformational redevelopment projects at some of our best assets. With our track record of executing profitably on anchor redevelopments, we are excited about the opportunity to transform our properties to meet changing consumer preferences and attract high-quality in-demand uses, all while delivering enhanced returns to our shareholders."
Net income attributable to common shareholders for the fourth quarter 2016 was $57.6 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $33.5 million, or $0.20 per diluted share for the fourth quarter 2015.

FFO allocable to the Operating Partnership common unitholders, as adjusted, for the fourth quarter of 2016 was $135.9 million compared with $141.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2015.

ANCHOR TRANSACTIONS
In January, CBL closed on a sale-leaseback transaction for five Sears department stores and two Sears Auto Centers located at CBL malls, providing CBL with control of these locations for future redevelopment.
CBL acquired the locations for a total consideration of $72.5 million. Sears will continue to operate the department stores under new 10-year leases. Under the terms of the leases, CBL will receive aggregate initial base rent of approximately $5.075 million, with Sears also responsible for paying common area maintenance charges, taxes, insurance and utilities. CBL will have the right to terminate each Sears lease at any time (except November through January), with six months advance notice.
Additionally in January, CBL closed on the acquisition of three Macy's stores located at Jefferson Mall in Louisville, KY; Parkdale Mall in Beaumont, TX and Eastland Mall in Bloomington, IL, for future redevelopment. CBL acquired the locations for $5.0 million.
FINANCING ACTIVITY
During 2016, CBL completed more than $1.0 billion in financing activity including:
- In December CBL's majority-owned operating partnership subsidiary, CBL & Associates Limited Partnership, closed a $400 million offering of 5.95% Senior Notes Due 2026 (the “notes”) under its existing shelf registration statement. The notes mature on December 15, 2026. Net proceeds from the offering were used to reduce amounts outstanding under the unsecured revolving credit facilities and for general business purposes.
- During the fourth quarter, CBL closed on a $60.0 million ($30.0 million at CBL's share) non-recourse loan secured by The Shops at Friendly Center in Greensboro, NC, which is owned in a 50/50 joint venture. The new loan has a term of six-years to coincide with the maturity date of the existing loan secured by The Friendly Center, and has a fixed interest rate of 3.34%. Proceeds were used to retire the maturing $37.6 million loan ($18.8 million at CBL's share), which had a fixed interest rate of 5.9%, with excess proceeds used to reduce outstanding balances on the Company's lines of credit.
- In June, CBL closed three separate non-recourse secured loans with an aggregate borrowing amount of $227.7 million. The loans have a weighted average interest rate of 3.9% and a weighted average term of 9 years. The loans included a $47.7 million 7-year loan secured by Ambassador Town Center in Lafayette, LA, bearing a fixed rate of 3.22%; a 10-year non-recourse $73.0 million loan secured by Fremaux Town Center in Slidell, LA, bearing a fixed interest rate of 3.69% and a 10-year non-recourse $107.0 million loan secured by Hamilton Place in Chattanooga, TN, bearing a fixed interest rate of 4.36%.
- Additionally, in June the foreclosure of Gulf Coast Town Center in Fort Myers, FL (owned in a 50/50 joint venture) was completed, reducing debt by $95.4 million, at CBL's share.
CBL also completed four loan restructures in 2016, representing an aggregate loan balance of $162 million. The loans were restructured at a weighted average interest rate of 4.75%, representing a 188 basis point improvement over the prior weighted average rate.
- In December, CBL closed on a restructure of the existing $46.7 million loan secured by Cary Towne Center in Cary, NC. The term of the loan was extended two years with an additional two-year extension available at the Company's option for a final maturity of March 2021 and the interest rate reduced from 8.5% to 4.0%, interest only (retroactive to August 2016). Excess cash flow generated from the property will be used to fund a proposed redevelopment. More details of the project will be announced once finalized.
- In December, CBL closed on a restructure of the existing $70.8 million loan secured by Greenbrier Mall in Chesapeake, VA. The term was extended three years with an additional one-year extension available at the Company's option for a final maturity of December 2020. The interest rate was reduced from $5.91% to 5.0%, interest only.
- In April, CBL closed on a restructure of the existing $27.4 million non-recourse loan secured by Hickory Point Mall in Forsyth, IL. The term of the loan was extended three years, with an additional one-year extension available at the Company's option, for a final maturity of December 2019. The interest rate was maintained at 5.85%, with future amortization payments eliminated.
- In February, CBL closed on a restructure of the existing $171.09 million ($17.1 million at CBL's share) loan secured by Triangle Town Center in Raleigh, NC. The term was extended two years with two additional one-year extensions available at the Company's option, for a final maturity date of December 2020. The interest rate was reduced to 4.0% from 5.74%.
Subsequent to the end of the fourth quarter, CBL retired loans secured by Hamilton Corner in Chattanooga, TN; The Plaza at Fayette Mall in Lexington, KY and The Plaza at St. Clair Square in Fairview Heights, IL. The aggregate balance retired was $70.1 million. The properties were added to CBL's unencumbered pool. CBL's consolidated unencumbered pool of properties currently represents nearly 53% of 2016 total consolidated NOI.
CBL currently has three properties in receivership with an aggregate loan balance of $189.6 million: Chesterfield Mall in Chesterfield, MO; Midland Mall in Midland, MI and Wausau Center in Wausau, WI. Foreclosure proceedings are in process and are expected to be finalized in early 2017.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Funds From Operations
FFO is a widely used measure of the operating performance of real estate companies that supplements net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) defines FFO as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding gains or losses on sales of depreciable operating properties and impairment losses of depreciable properties, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures and noncontrolling interests. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures and noncontrolling interests are calculated on the same basis. We define FFO as defined above by NAREIT less dividends on preferred stock of the Company or distributions on preferred units of the Operating Partnership, as applicable. The Company’s method of calculating FFO may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.
The Company believes that FFO provides an additional indicator of the operating performance of its properties without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which assumes the value of real estate assets declines predictably over time. Since values of well-maintained real estate assets have historically risen with market conditions, the Company believes that FFO enhances investors’ understanding of its operating performance. The use of FFO as an indicator of financial performance is influenced not only by the operations of the Company’s properties and interest rates, but also by its capital structure. The Company presents both FFO allocable to Operating Partnership common unitholders and FFO allocable to common shareholders, as it believes that both are useful performance measures. The Company believes FFO allocable to Operating Partnership common unitholders is a useful performance measure since it conducts substantially all of its business through its Operating Partnership and, therefore, it reflects the performance of the properties in absolute terms regardless of the ratio of ownership interests of the Company’s common shareholders and the noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership. The Company believes FFO allocable to its common shareholders is a useful performance measure because it is the performance measure that is most directly comparable to net income (loss) attributable to its common shareholders.
In the reconciliation of net income attributable to the Company's common shareholders to FFO allocable to operating partnership common unitholders, located in this earnings release, the Company makes an adjustment to add back noncontrolling interest in income (loss) of its Operating Partnership in order to arrive at FFO of its Operating Partnership. The Company then applies a percentage to FFO of its Operating Partnership in order to arrive at FFO of the Operating Partnership common unitholders. The percentage is computed by taking the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and dividing it by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and the weighted average number of Operating Partnership units outstanding during the period.
FFO does not represent cash flows from operations as defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) for purposes of evaluating the Company’s operating performance or to cash flow as a measure of liquidity.
The Company believes that it is important to identify the impact of certain significant items on its FFO measures for a reader to have a complete understanding of the Company’s results of operations. Therefore, the Company has also presented adjusted FFO measures excluding these significant items from the applicable periods. Please refer to the reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders to FFO allocable to Operating Partnership common unitholders on page 9 of this earnings release for a description of these adjustments.
Same-center Net Operating Income
NOI is a supplemental measure of the operating performance of the Company's shopping centers and other properties. The Company defines NOI as property operating revenues (rental revenues, tenant reimbursements and other income) less property operating expenses (property operating, real estate taxes and maintenance and repairs).
We believe that presenting NOI and same-center NOI (described below) based on our Operating Partnership’s pro rata share of both consolidated and unconsolidated properties is useful since we conduct substantially all of our business through our Operating Partnership and, therefore, it reflects the performance of the properties in absolute terms regardless of the ratio of ownership interests of our common shareholders and the noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership. The Company computes NOI based on the Operating Partnership's pro rata share of both consolidated and unconsolidated properties. The Company's definition of NOI may be different than that used by other companies and, accordingly, the Company's NOI may not be comparable to that of other companies.
Since NOI includes only those revenues and expenses related to the operations of its shopping center and other properties, the Company believes that same-center NOI provides a measure that reflects trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs and the impact of those trends on the Company's results of operations. The Company’s calculation of same-center NOI also excludes lease termination income, straight-line rent adjustments, and amortization of above and below market lease intangibles in order to enhance the comparability of results from one period to another, as these items can be impacted by one-time events that may distort same-center NOI trends and may result in same-center NOI that is not indicative of the ongoing operations of the Company’s shopping center and other properties. A reconciliation of same-center NOI to net income is located at the end of this earnings release.
Pro Rata Share of Debt
The Company presents debt based on its pro rata ownership share (including the Company's pro rata share of unconsolidated affiliates and excluding noncontrolling interests' share of consolidated properties) because it believes this provides investors a clearer understanding of the Company's total debt obligations which affect the Company's liquidity. A reconciliation of the Company's pro rata share of debt to the amount of debt on the Company's consolidated balance sheet is located at the end of this earnings release.

(1) CBL defines NOI as property operating revenues (rental revenues, tenant reimbursements and other income), less property operating expenses (property operating, real estate taxes and maintenance and repairs). Same-center NOI excludes lease termination income, straight-line rent adjustments, amortization of above and below market lease intangibles and write-offs of landlord inducement assets. We include a property in our same-center pool when we own all or a portion of the property as of December 31, 2016, and we owned it and it was in operation for both the entire preceding calendar year and the current year-to-date reporting period ending December 31, 2016. New properties are excluded from same-center NOI, until they meet this criteria. The only properties excluded from the same-center pool that would otherwise meet this criteria are properties which are either being considered for repositioning, minority interest properties in which we own an interest of 25% or less, or where we intend to renegotiate the terms of the debt secured by the property or return the property to the lender. |
