HIGHLIGHTS:
- Entered into binding contract for the sale of two malls and completed the sale of an outlet center and two office buildings year-to-date. The transactions are expected to generate aggregate equity proceeds of nearly $100 million, at CBL's share.
- FFO per diluted share, as adjusted, was $0.52 for the first quarter 2017, compared with FFO, as adjusted, of $0.56 per share for the first quarter 2016. First quarter 2017 was impacted by approximately $0.05 per share of dilution from asset sales.
- Total Portfolio Same-center NOI for the first quarter 2017 declined 1.0%.
- Portfolio occupancy increased 50 bps to 92.1% and same-center mall occupancy declined 100 basis points to 90.5% as of March 31, 2017 compared with 91.5% as of March 31, 2016.
- Stabilized Mall leases were signed at an average increase of 2% over the expiring gross rent per square foot, including a 18% increase in average gross rents for more than 130,000 square feet of new leases executed in the quarter.
CBL's President and Chief Executive Officer Stephen Lebovitz commented, "Our malls are evolving into suburban town centers as we add more dining, entertainment, value and off-price, health and wellness, service and non-retail uses to adapt to the changing retail landscape. We faced a challenging retail environment in the first quarter, which impacted our NOI results. However, leasing demand remains strong, and we are making major progress on our anchor redevelopment program.
"We are improving our balance sheet through additional dispositions including the sale of The Outlet Shoppes at Oklahoma City and two office buildings as well as a binding contract for the sale of two malls. These transactions will generate equity proceeds of nearly $100 million, contributing to further reductions in debt. Coupled with our significant free cash flow, this will create additional liquidity to fund redevelopment activity."
Net income attributable to common shareholders for the first quarter 2017 was $22.9 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, compared with net income of $28.9 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, for the first quarter 2016.
FFO allocable to common shareholders, as adjusted, for the first quarter 2017 was $88.4 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, compared with $95.0 million, or $0.56 per diluted share, for the first quarter 2016. FFO allocable to the Operating Partnership common unitholders, as adjusted, for the first quarter 2017 was $103.0 million compared with $111.2 million for the first quarter 2016.

DISPOSITIONS
CBL has entered into a binding contract for the sale of two malls, College Square in Morristown, TN (2016 sales psf $265) and Foothills Mall in Maryville, TN (2016 sales psf $283), for a total gross sales price of $53.5 million. The buyer has posted a significant nonrefundable deposit. The transaction is expected to close in May.
During the first quarter 2017, CBL closed on the sale of two office buildings located in Newport News, VA, generating gross proceeds of $6.25 million.
On April 28, 2017, CBL closed on the sale of The Outlet Shoppes at Oklahoma City in Oklahoma City, OK for a gross sales price of $130.0 million. Approximately $70.1 million, including defeasance costs, in loans secured by the property were retired concurrent with the closing. CBL's share of net equity proceeds, after retirement of secured loans and closing costs, was $38.0 million. Net proceeds were used to reduce outstanding balances on the Company's lines of credit. CBL anticipates recording a gain on sale of approximately $44.0 million in second quarter 2017 results related to the sale.
FINANCING ACTIVITY
During the quarter, CBL retired four loans totaling $158.3 million (at CBL's share) and added the properties to its unencumbered pool of assets. The loans were secured by Layton Hills Mall in Layton, UT, The Plaza at Fayette in Lexington, KY, The Shoppes at St. Clair Square in Fairview Heights, IL and Hamilton Corner in Chattanooga, TN.
During the quarter the foreclosure of Midland Mall in Midland, MI, was completed. CBL recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt of $4.1 million related to the foreclosure.
In April, the $125 million loan secured by Acadiana Mall in Lafayette, LA, matured. CBL is currently in discussions with the lender to restructure and extend the loan maturity.
OUTLOOK AND GUIDANCE
CBL is updating its 2017 FFO, as adjusted, guidance to reflect first quarter results, dilution from announced disposition activity (approximately $0.04 per share) and its current outlook. CBL anticipates FFO, as adjusted, in the range of $2.18 - $2.24 per diluted share. This FFO assumes same-center NOI growth in the range of (2.0)% - 0% in 2017, which includes an additional estimated income loss of $10.0 - 14.0 million from store closure and bankruptcy activity for the remainder of 2017.
The guidance also assumes the following:
- $10.0 million to $12.0 million in gains on outparcel sales;
- 75 to 125 basis points lower total portfolio occupancy as well as stabilized mall occupancy at year-end;
- G&A expense of $62 million to $64 million for the full year; and
- No unannounced capital markets activity.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Funds From Operations
FFO is a widely used non-GAAP 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 (loss) 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 the Operating Partnership common unitholders. The Company then applies a percentage to FFO of the Operating Partnership common unitholders to arrive at FFO allocable to its common shareholders. 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 and the weighted-average number of Operating Partnership units held by noncontrolling interests during the period.
FFO does not represent cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP, 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 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 non-GAAP 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).
The Company computes NOI based on the Operating Partnership's pro rata share of both consolidated and unconsolidated properties. The Company believes that presenting NOI and same-center NOI (described below) based on its Operating Partnership's pro rata share of both consolidated and unconsolidated properties is useful since the Company 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's definition of NOI may be different than that used by other companies and, accordingly, the Company's calculation of NOI may not be comparable to that of other companies.
Since NOI includes only those revenues and expenses related to the operations of the Company's shopping center properties, the Company believes that same-center NOI provides a measure that reflects trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, sales at the malls and operating costs and the impact of those trends on the Company's results of operations. The Company's calculation of same-center NOI excludes lease termination income, straight-line rent adjustments, amortization of above and below market lease intangibles and write-off of landlord inducement assets in order to enhance the comparability of results from one period to another. 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 condensed 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. Same-center NOI is for real estate properties and does not include the results of operations of the Company's subsidiary that provides janitorial, security and maintenance services. We include a property in our same-center pool when we own all or a portion of the property as of March 31, 2017, 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 March 31, 2017. 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 under major redevelopment, 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 related property. |
