GREAT NECK, N.Y., Nov. 08, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — One Liberty Properties, Inc. (NYSE: OLP), a real estate investment trust focused on net leased properties, today announced operating results for the quarter ended September 30, 2018.
“We continued to execute on our long-term growth strategy by staying disciplined and selectively investing in properties located in strong local markets that produce sustained cash flow,” commented Patrick J. Callan, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of One Liberty. “We expect to benefit from the targeted acquisitions and timely divestitures we have made over the past several years. As we move forward, we remain committed to building value for our stockholders.”
Operating Results:
Rental income was $17.2 million for each of the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. Rental income was impacted favorably in the current period by a non-cash write-off resulting from a lease termination, the tenanting of properties that were vacant in the 2017 period and properties acquired in 2017 and 2018. This was offset by properties sold in 2018 and 2017 and a non-cash allowance for an unbilled rent receivable.
Total operating expenses in the third quarter of 2018 were $11.5 million compared to $10.8 million for the same period in 2017.
Net income attributable to One Liberty in the third quarter of 2018 was $10.1 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, compared to $7.1 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2017. Net income for the 2018 quarter includes a $4.6 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, gain on the sale of real estate, a $2.0 million gain, or $0.10 per diluted share, from the sale of real estate by an unconsolidated subsidiary and offset by $636,000, or $0.03 per diluted share from the non-cash adjustments described below. The 2017 quarter includes $3.3 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, of gain on sale of real estate.
Funds from Operations, or FFO, were $9.4 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, compared to $9.3 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter. FFO for the current quarter was negatively impacted by $0.07 per diluted share related to the non-cash allowance for the unbilled rent receivable, offset by $0.04 per diluted share of non-cash income from the write-off resulting from a lease termination.
Adjusted Funds from Operations, or AFFO, was $10.3 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, in the 2018 quarter, compared to $9.9 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2017.
Diluted per share net income, FFO and AFFO were impacted during the quarter ended September 30, 2018 by the approximate 709,000 share increase in the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the third quarter of 2018 from the third quarter of 2017 due to stock issuances pursuant to One Liberty’s at-the-market offering, dividend reinvestment and equity incentive programs. A reconciliation of GAAP amounts to non-GAAP amounts is presented with the financial information included in this release.
Balance Sheet:
At September 30, 2018, the Company had $17.2 million of cash and cash equivalents, total assets of $742.4 million, total debt of $403.0 million, and total stockholders’ equity of $306.1 million.
At November 2, 2018, One Liberty’s available liquidity was approximately $104.6 million, including approximately $8.6 million of cash and cash equivalents (net of the credit facility’s required $3 million deposit maintenance balance) and up to $96.0 million available under its credit facility.
Transactions:
During the quarter ended September 30, 2018, the Company recognized a gain of $4.6 million from the sale of a land parcel ground leased to the owner/operator of a multi-family complex and a gain of $2.0 million, representing its share of a gain from the sale of a property by an unconsolidated joint venture.
Subsequent Events:
As previously reported, subsequent to September 30, 2018, the Company purchased:
- an industrial/office facility property for a purchase price of $12.8 million, and
- an industrial property for $7.4 million.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
One Liberty computes FFO in accordance with the “White Paper on Funds From Operations” issued by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) and NAREIT’s related guidance. FFO is defined in the White Paper as net income (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus real estate depreciation and amortization (including amortization of deferred leasing costs), plus impairment write‑downs of depreciable real estate and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. One Liberty computes AFFO by adjusting FFO for straight-line rent accruals and amortization of lease intangibles, deducting lease termination fees and gain on extinguishment of debt and adding back amortization of restricted stock and restricted stock unit compensation, amortization of costs in connection with its financing activities (including its share of its unconsolidated joint ventures) and debt prepayment costs. Since the NAREIT White Paper does not provide guidelines for computing AFFO, the computation of AFFO may vary from one REIT to another.
One Liberty believes that FFO and AFFO are useful and standard supplemental measures of the operating performance for equity REITs and are used frequently by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in evaluating equity REITs, many of which present FFO and AFFO when reporting their operating results. FFO and AFFO are intended to exclude GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, which assumes that the value of real estate assets diminish predictability over time. In fact, real estate values have historically risen and fallen with market conditions. As a result, management believes that FFO and AFFO provide a performance measure that when compared year over year, should reflect the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, interest costs and other matters without the inclusion of depreciation and amortization, providing a perspective that may not be necessarily apparent from net income. Management also considers FFO and AFFO to be useful in evaluating potential property acquisitions.
FFO and AFFO do not represent net income or cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as defined by GAAP. FFO and AFFO should not be considered to be an alternative to net income as a reliable measure of our operating performance nor as an alternative to cash flows as measures of liquidity. FFO and AFFO do not measure whether cash flow is sufficient to fund all of the Company’s cash needs.
