Acadia Realty Trust Reports First Quarter 2020 Operating Results

RYE, N.Y.--()--Acadia Realty Trust (NYSE: AKR) (“Acadia” or the “Company”) today reported operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. All per share amounts are on a fully-diluted basis.

Acadia operates dual platforms, comprised of a high-quality core real estate portfolio (“Core Portfolio”), through which the Company owns and operates retail assets in the nation’s most dynamic corridors, and a series of discretionary, institutional funds (“Funds”) that target opportunistic and value-add investments.

Please refer to the tables and notes accompanying this press release for further details on operating results and additional disclosures related to net income, funds from operations ("FFO") and net property operating income ("NOI") which were impacted due to the COVID-19 Pandemic (see “COVID-19 Pandemic Update” section that follows).

Highlights

  • Earnings: Other than the impacts from the COVID-19 Pandemic, earnings were on target with initial expectations:
  • GAAP loss per share of $(0.10), inclusive of impairment charges on real property within the Funds of $0.14 per share and FFO per share of $0.30 for the first quarter, which includes $0.04 of credit loss and straight-line rent reserves, primarily associated with the COVID-19 Pandemic
  • Core Portfolio Operating Results: Decrease in same-property NOI of -1.4% for the first quarter primarily as a result of credit loss reserves of approximately 300 basis points associated with the COVID-19 Pandemic
  • Leasing Progress: Executed 42 new and renewal leases in the Core and Fund portfolios during the first quarter, including key street locations in Rush and Walton in Chicago and Greenwich, Connecticut
  • Balance Sheet and Liquidity:

Core Portfolio

  • No material scheduled Core debt maturities until 2023, inclusive of extension options nor material capital commitment obligations

Fund Portfolio

  • Completed a $15.3 million Fund IV disposition subsequent to March 31, 2020
  • No material secured or unsecured debt maturities in 2020, inclusive of extension options
  • No material construction or development commitments
  • Approximately $150 million available under its credit facilities as of March 31, 2020
  • Fund V has 40% of future acquisition capacity (approximately $600.0 million on a leveraged basis) remaining to invest

“We are grateful to all our front-line responders and essential businesses that are staying open to serve their communities during this crisis. As we continue to navigate through the uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, we remain confident that our strong balance sheet and enhanced liquidity position provides us with the flexible financial ability needed during this challenging time,” stated Kenneth F. Bernstein, President and CEO of Acadia Realty Trust. “We have seen the paramount importance of physical stores and remain optimistic that our best in class locations will prove to be resilient.”

COVID-19 PANDEMIC UPDATE

The onset of the COVID-19 Pandemic in the United States significantly decreased consumer activity. In early March, Acadia was able to successfully transition to working remotely and continue its business operations, while protecting the safety and health of its employees.

As a result of “shelter-in-place” or “stay-at-home” orders, mandatory business shutdowns and social distancing practices, certain retailers across the country were forced to cease or decrease operations throughout the months of March, April and May-to-date. Certain retail tenants within the Company’s portfolio have been permitted to continue operating at full or decreased capacity, while other tenants have been directed to temporarily decrease or close operations for an indeterminate period to protect their employees, consumers and communities from the spread of the virus. A significant number of Acadia’s stores in the following cities were forced to close on the following dates: California (March 19), Chicago (March 21), New York (March 23), Boston (March 24) and Washington D.C. (March 30).

The Company’s first quarter metrics were on track until the pandemic struck. Additional reserves were taken as a cautious measure as businesses began to suspend their operations.

The Company continues to have active discussions with existing and potential new tenants for new and renewed leases. However, the uncertainty relating to the COVID-19 Pandemic has slowed the pace of leasing activity and could result in higher vacancy than the Company otherwise would have experienced, a longer amount of time to fill vacancies and potentially lower rental rates. While Acadia anticipates these disruptions to be temporary, the Company’s revenues, results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity, potentially for the full year 2020, are likely to be adversely impacted.

April Collections

To date, 38% of the Core portfolio (based upon revenues) is essential and/or operating and the Company has collected over 50% of April rents and billed recoveries. Within the Fund portfolio, 41% of the Fund portfolio (based upon revenues) is essential and/or operating and the Company has collected over 50% of April rents and billed recoveries to date. Please refer to the supplemental information package for more details on the Company’s website under Investors. The portfolio statistics in the supplemental information package are as of April 30, 2020, and to the best of Acadia’s knowledge.

Dividend

Due to the economic uncertainties, the Company’s Board of Trustees has suspended distributions on its common shares and units beginning in the second quarter of 2020. The Board of Trustees has not made any decisions regarding its dividend policy beyond the second quarter of 2020 and will closely monitor the Company’s financial performance and economic outlook and assess when to reinitiate an appropriate dividend to maintain compliance with its REIT taxable income requirements.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL RESULTS

A complete reconciliation, in dollars and per share amounts, of net income attributable to common shareholders to FFO attributable to common shareholders and operating income to NOI is included in the financial tables of this release.

Net Loss

Net loss attributable to common shareholders for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 was $(8.4) million, or $(0.10) per share, inclusive of (i) $12.4 million on a pro rata basis, or $0.14 per share attributable to impairment charges within the Funds and (ii) $4.2 million, or $0.05 per share, related to credit loss and straight-line rent reserves, primarily due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. Net income attributable to common shareholders for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 was $12.2 million, or $0.15 per share inclusive of $5.8 million, or $0.07 per share related to previously-announced accelerated tenant recaptures.

FFO

FFO for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 was $27.7 million, or $0.30 per share, inclusive of $4.2 million, or $0.04 per share, related to credit loss and straight-line rent reserves, primarily due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, compared to $34.7 million, or $0.39 per share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 inclusive of $5.8 million, or $0.07 per share related to previously-announced accelerated tenant recaptures.

CORE AND FUND PORTFOLIOS

Core Operating Results

The Company had a decrease in same-property NOI of -1.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 primarily as a result of credit loss reserves due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. Reflected in same-property NOI is a previously-announced vacancy at 11 East Walton in Chicago, a majority of which has been successfully re-leased.

The Core Portfolio was 93.1% occupied which includes tenants that may have been temporarily closed as of March 31, 2020 and 93.9% leased as of March 31, 2020 compared to 94.0% occupied and 94.8% leased as of December 31, 2019. The leased rate includes space that is leased but not yet occupied and excludes development and redevelopment properties.

The Company generated an increase in rent on a GAAP and cash basis of 36.9% and 35.7% on one conforming new lease signed during the quarter. During the first quarter, the Company generated an 11.8% increase in rent on a GAAP basis and was flat in rent on a cash basis, on six conforming new and renewal leases aggregating approximately 32,000 square feet.

Leasing Progress

Acadia signed 42 new and renewal leases in the Core and Fund portfolios during the first quarter.

  • The Company executed key street leases with Veronica Beard at 11 East Walton (Chicago, Illinois) and 252-264 Greenwich Avenue (Greenwich, Connecticut) post COVID-19 within the Core portfolio.
  • During the first quarter, the Company executed a new lease with Lidl at Frederick County Square (Frederick, Maryland) within the Fund portfolio.

In addition, subsequent to March 31, 2020, the Company has executed six new and renewal leases.

Core Acquisitions

As a culmination of previously-negotiated and announced transactions, during the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company acquired $19.2 million of Core Portfolio properties as follows (amounts below are inclusive of transaction costs):

Soho, New York, NY. In January 2020, the Company acquired 37 Greene Street for $15.7 million. The Company now owns six contiguous buildings on Greene Street.

Lincoln Park, Chicago, IL. In February 2020, the Company acquired 917 W Armitage Avenue for $3.5 million. The Company now owns 12 buildings (seven of which are contiguous) on W Armitage Avenue.

Given the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the markets where Acadia’s properties are located, the Company anticipates a reduction in acquisition and disposition activity during the second quarter and potentially for the remainder of 2020.

STRUCTURED FINANCING INVESTMENT

As previously announced, in January 2020, the Company funded a $54.0 million loan on a mixed-use redevelopment in Sunset Park Brooklyn, New York.

BALANCE SHEET AND LIQUIDITY

Core Portfolio

As previously announced, there are no material scheduled Core debt maturities until 2023 (inclusive of extension options subject to customary conditions).

During the quarter, prior to the mandatory closure of non-essential businesses, the Company repurchased 1.2 million of its shares totaling $22.3 million at a weighted average price per share of $18.29.

Fund Portfolio

Subsequent to March 31, 2020, Fund IV completed the disposition of Colonie Plaza in Albany, New York, a property within the Northeast Grocery Portfolio for $15.3 million and repaid the property’s $11.6 million mortgage. During its ownership, the Fund stabilized the asset through tenant lease extensions and by securing attractive financing. The Company does not report return metrics for partial sales of portfolio transactions but expects to report a gain related to the disposition in the second quarter.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, two properties (Wake Forest Crossing and Lincoln Place) within Fund IV exercised options to extend their mortgages by one year to 2021. Subsequent to March 31, 2020, the Fund V subscription line was extended by one year to 2021.

As previously announced, there are no material secured or unsecured debt maturities in 2020, inclusive of extension options (which are subject to customary conditions). There was approximately $150.0 million available under Fund credit facilities as of March 31, 2020.

Fund V has $208.0 million of acquisition capital remaining to reinvest (approximately $600.0 million on a leveraged basis) as opportunities arise.

2020 GUIDANCE

As previously announced, Acadia withdrew its full-year 2020 guidance due to the economic uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 Pandemic. The Company is not providing updated 2020 guidance at this time.

ACADIA REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Financial Highlights:

(a)

For additional information and analysis concerning the Company’s balance sheet and results of operations,

reference is made to the Company’s quarterly supplemental disclosures for the relevant periods furnished on Form 8-K to the SEC and included on the Company’s website at www.acadiarealty.com.

(b)

Diluted earnings and (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised or converted into common shares. The effect of the conversion of common units of partnership interest (“OP Units”) in Acadia Realty Limited Partnership, the “Operating Partnership” of the Company, is not reflected in the above table as they are exchangeable for Common Shares on a one-for-one basis. The income allocable to such units is allocated on the same basis and reflected as noncontrolling interests in the consolidated financial statements. As such, the assumed conversion of these OP Units would have no net impact on the determination of diluted earnings per share.

(c)

The Company considers funds from operations (“FFO”) as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) and net property operating income (“NOI”) to be appropriate supplemental disclosures of operating performance for an equity REIT due to their widespread acceptance and use within the REIT and analyst communities. FFO and NOI are presented to assist investors in analyzing the performance of the Company. They are helpful as they exclude various items included in net income (loss) that are not indicative of the operating performance, such as gains (losses) from sales of real estate property, depreciation and amortization, and impairment of real estate property. In addition, NOI excludes interest expense. The Company’s method of calculating FFO and NOI may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. FFO does not represent cash generated from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and is not indicative of cash available to fund all cash needs, including distributions. It should not be considered as an alternative to net income for the purpose of evaluating the Company’s performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Consistent with the NAREIT definition, the Company defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (losses) from sales of real estate property, plus depreciation and amortization, impairment of real estate property, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

(d)

The pro-rata share of NOI is based upon the Operating Partnership's stated ownership percentages in each venture or Fund’s operating agreement. Does not include the Operating Partnership's share of NOI from unconsolidated joint ventures within the Funds.
