PASADENA, CA. – July 27, 2011 – Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. (NYSE: ARE) today announced financial and operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2011.

 

Financial Results

 

For the second quarter of 2011, we reported FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $67,158,000, or $1.15 per share (diluted), before loss on early extinguishment of debt, compared to FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $54,563,000, or $1.10 per share (diluted), before loss on early extinguishment of debt, for the second quarter of 2010.  For the six months ended June 30, 2011, we reported FFO attributed to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $130,268,000, or $2.30 per share (diluted), before loss on early extinguishment of debt, compared to FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $108,547,000, or $2.18 per share (diluted), before loss on early extinguishment of debt, for the six months ended June 30, 2010.  During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we recognized an aggregate loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $3.7 million related to the repurchases, in privately negotiated transactions, of approximately $96 million of certain of our 3.70% unsecured convertible notes and the partial and early repayment of our unsecured term loan.  Including the aggregate loss on early extinguishment of debt, FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, was $65,921,000, or $1.13 per share (diluted), and 126,557,000, or $2.23 per share (diluted), respectively.

 

FFO is a non-GAAP measure widely used by publicly traded real estate investment trusts.  We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) in its April 2002 White Paper and related implementation guidance.  A reconciliation of net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) to FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders is included in the financial information accompanying this press release.  The primary reconciling items between GAAP net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders and FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders is depreciation and amortization expense and gain on sales of property. Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $40,363,000 and $30,342,000, respectively.  Depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $77,070,000 and $60,080,000, respectively.  Net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders for the second quarter of 2011 was $25,986,000 or $0.44 per share (diluted), compared to net loss attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $20,393,000, or $0.45 per share (diluted), for the second quarter of 2010.  Net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $50,351,000, compared to net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $206,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

(1)

Due to the loss on early extinguishment of debt recognized in the three months ended June 30, 2010, FFO results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 did not assume conversion of our 8% unsecured convertible notes for FFO per share (diluted) purposes as the impact to FFO per share was antidilutive for the periods pursuant to the if-converted method of accounting. Excluding the loss on early extinguishment of debt, the impact of the assumed conversion of our 8% unsecured convertible notes would have been dilutive to FFO (diluted) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. For all periods since issuance of the notes in April 2009, except for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, there is no add back for the assumed conversion of our 8% unsecured convertible notes since FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders, as reported, already assumed conversion of our 8% unsecured convertible notes pursuant to the if-converted method of accounting.

 

Leasing Activity

 

For the second quarter of 2011, we executed a total of 49 leases for approximately 728,000 rentable square feet at 34 different properties (excluding month-to-month leases).  Of this total, approximately 436,000 rentable square feet related to new or renewal leases of previously leased space (renewed/re-leased space) and approximately 292,000 rentable square feet related to developed, redeveloped, or previously vacant space.  Of the 292,000 rentable square feet, approximately 148,000 rentable square feet were related to our development or redevelopment programs, with the remaining approximately 144,000 rentable square feet related to previously vacant space.  Rental rates for these new or renewal leases (renewed/re-leased space) were on average approximately 3.1% higher on a GAAP basis than rental rates for the respective expiring leases.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2011, we executed a total of 92 leases for approximately 1,280,000 rentable square feet at 54 different properties (excluding month-to-month leases).  Of this total, approximately 769,000 rentable square feet related to new or renewal leases of previously leased space (renewed/re-leased space) and approximately 511,000 rentable square feet related to developed, redeveloped, or previously vacant space.  Of the 511,000 rentable square feet, approximately 224,000 rentable square feet were related to our development or redevelopment programs, and the remaining approximately 287,000 rentable square feet were related to previously vacant space.  Rental rates for these new or renewal leases (renewed/re-leased space) were on average approximately 2.4% higher on a GAAP basis than rental rates for the respective expiring leases.

 

As of June 30, 2011, approximately 95% of our leases (on a rentable square footage basis) were triple net leases, requiring tenants to pay substantially all real estate taxes, insurance, utilities, common area, and other operating expenses (including increases thereto) in addition to base rent.  Additionally, approximately 92% of our leases (on a rentable square footage basis) provided for the recapture of certain capital expenditures, and approximately 93% of our leases (on a rentable square footage basis) contained effective annual rent escalations that were either fixed or indexed based on the consumer price index or another index.

Unsecured Credit Facility

 

In January 2011, we entered into a third amendment (the “Third Amendment”) to our second amended and restated credit agreement dated October 31, 2006, as further amended on December 1, 2006 and May 2, 2007 (the “Prior Credit Agreement,” and as amended by the Third Amendment, the “Amended Credit Agreement”), with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and certain lenders. The Third Amendment amended the Prior Credit Agreement to, among other things, increase the maximum permitted borrowings under the unsecured line of credit from $1.15 billion to $1.5 billion, plus a $750 million unsecured term loan (the “2012 Unsecured Term Loan” and together with the unsecured line of credit, the “Unsecured Credit Facility”) and provided an accordion option to increase commitments under the Unsecured Credit Facility by up to an additional $300 million.  Borrowings under the Unsecured Credit Facility bear interest at LIBOR or the specified base rate, plus in either case a margin specified in the Amended Credit Agreement (the “Applicable Margin”).  The Applicable Margin for LIBOR borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility was 2.4% as of June 30, 2011.  The Applicable Margin for the LIBOR borrowings under the 2012 Unsecured Term Loan was not amended in the Third Amendment and was 1.0% as of June 30, 2011.

 

Under the Third Amendment, the maturity date for the unsecured revolving credit facility is January 2015, assuming we exercise our sole right under the amendment to extend this maturity date twice by an additional six months after each exercise.  The maturity date for the 2012 Unsecured Term Loan remained unchanged at October 2012, assuming we exercise our sole right to extend the maturity date by one year.  The Third Amendment modified certain financial covenants with respect to the Unsecured Credit Facility, including the fixed charge coverage ratio, secured debt ratio, leverage ratio, and minimum book value, and added covenants relating to an unsecured leverage ratio and unsecured debt yield.

 

2016 Unsecured Term Loan

 

In February 2011, we entered into a $250 million unsecured term loan.  In June 2011, we amended this $250 million unsecured term loan (as amended, the “2016 Unsecured Term Loan”) to, among other things, increase the borrowings from $250 million to $750 million and to extend the maturity from January 2015 to June 2016, assuming we exercise our sole right to extend the maturity date by one year.  Borrowings under the 2016 Unsecured Term Loan bear interest at LIBOR or the specified base rate, plus in either case a margin specified in the amended unsecured term loan agreement.  The applicable margin for the LIBOR borrowings under the 2016 Unsecured Term Loan was amended initially to 1.75%.  Under the 2016 Unsecured Term Loan agreement, the financial covenants were not amended and are identical to the financial covenants required under our existing Unsecured Credit Facility.  The 2016 Unsecured Term Loan may be repaid at any date prior to maturity without a prepayment penalty.  The net proceeds from this amendment were used to reduce outstanding borrowings on the 2012 Unsecured Term Loan from $750 million to $250 million.  As a result of this early repayment, we recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $1.2 million related to the write-off of unamortized loan fees.

 

3.70% Unsecured Convertible Notes

 

During the first quarter of 2011, we repurchased, in privately negotiated transactions, approximately $96.1 million of certain of our 3.70% unsecured convertible notes at an aggregate cash price of approximately $98.6 million.  As a result of these repurchases, we recognized an aggregate loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $2.5 million during the first quarter of 2011.

 

In July 2011, we repurchased, in privately negotiated transactions, approximately $81.5 million of certain of our 3.70% unsecured convertible notes at an aggregate cash price of approximately $82.7 million.  As a result of these repurchases, we recognized an aggregate loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $1.9 million.  As of July 27, 2011, approximately $123.1 million of our 3.70% unsecured convertible notes was outstanding, net of approximately $1.3 million of unamortized discount.

Acquisitions

 

In April 2011, we acquired 409 and 499 Illinois Street, a newly and partially completed world-class 453,256 rentable square foot laboratory/office development project located on a highly desirable waterfront location in Mission Bay, San Francisco, for approximately $293 million.  409 Illinois Street is a 241,659 rentable square foot tower that is 97% leased to a life science company through November 2023.  499 Illinois Street is a vacant 211,597 rentable square foot tower in shell condition for which we plan to complete the development.  Based on our current view of existing market conditions and certain current assumptions, we expect to achieve a stabilized yield on a GAAP and cash basis for this property in the range of 7.2% to 7.6% and 6.5% to 7.0%, respectively.  Stabilized yield on cost is calculated as the quotient of net operating income and our investment in the property at stabilization (“Stabilized Yield”).

 

In June 2011, we acquired 285 Bear Hill Road, a 26,270 rentable square foot office property located in the Greater Boston market, for approximately $3.9 million.  We plan to begin the redevelopment of this property into life science laboratory space in the fourth quarter of 2011.  Based on our current view of existing market conditions and certain current assumptions, we expect to achieve a Stabilized Yield on a GAAP and cash basis for this property of approximately 8.6% and 8.0%, respectively.

 

Earnings Outlook

 

Based on our current view of existing market conditions and certain current assumptions, we expect our FFO per share (diluted) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders and earnings per share (diluted) attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2011 will be within the following ranges below. Our earnings outlook reflects certain current assumptions, including higher interest expense related to the timing and amount of refinancing of a portion of our unhedged outstanding balance under our 2012 Unsecured Term Loan, higher interest expense related to estimated timing of additional unsecured debt, and a $50 million decrease in projected acquisitions in 2011.

 

		2011
FFO per share (diluted)		$4.37 - $4.42	(1)
Earnings per share (diluted)		$1.82 - $1.87	(1)

 

(1)      Includes loss on early extinguishment of debt recognized from January 1, 2011 through July 27, 2011 of approximately $5.7 million, or $0.10 per share.

 

The following table provides a reconciliation of our prior guidance for 2011 FFO per share (diluted) to our current guidance for 2011 FFO per share (diluted):

Note Regarding Funds from Operations

 

GAAP basis accounting for real estate assets utilizes historical cost accounting and assumes real estate values diminish over time.  In an effort to overcome the difference between real estate values and historical cost accounting for real estate assets, the Board of Governors of NAREIT established the measurement tool of Funds from Operations (“FFO”).  Since its introduction, FFO has become a widely used non-GAAP financial measure among real estate investment trusts (“REITs”).  We believe that FFO is helpful to investors as an additional measure of the performance of an equity REIT.  We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of NAREIT in its April 2002 White Paper (the “White Paper”) and related implementation guidance, which may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO utilized by other equity REITs, and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.  The White Paper defines FFO as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.  FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of financial performance, or to cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions.

Company Profile

June 30, 2011

 

The Company

 

Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc. (the “Company” or “Alexandria”), a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”), is the largest owner and preeminent REIT focused principally on science-driven cluster formation.  Our operating platform is based on the principle of “clustering” with high-quality assets and operations located adjacent to life science research and innovation entities driving growth and technological advances.  The Company has significant real estate assets adjacent to these key life science entities which we believe results in higher occupancy levels, longer lease terms, higher rental income, and higher returns.  Our targeted locations are in the best submarkets within each of the top life science cluster destinations, including San Francisco and San Diego, California; Greater Boston; New York City, New Jersey, and Suburban Philadelphia; Research Triangle Park, North Carolina; Suburban Washington, D.C.; Seattle, Washington; and international locations.  Client tenants include institutional (universities and independent non-profit institutions), pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device, product, and service entities, and government agencies.  The Company was founded in 1994 by Jerry M. Sudarsky and Joel S. Marcus and the Company executed its initial public offering in 1997.  Alexandria is the leading life science real estate company and is known for its very well located high-quality environmentally sustainable real estate, technical infrastructure, and its long term experience, and the unique expertise it provides to its broad and diverse high-quality life science industry client tenant base.

 

Management

 

Alexandria’s executive and senior management team is highly experienced in the REIT industry (uniquely with both real estate and life science experience and expertise) and is the most accomplished team focused on providing high-quality environmentally sustainable real estate, technical infrastructure, and unique expertise to the broad and diverse life science industry.  Our deep and talented team has decades of real estate and life science industry experience. We believe that our expertise, experience, reputation, and key life science relationships provide Alexandria significant competitive advantages in attracting new business opportunities.  Our management team also includes highly experienced regional market directors averaging over 20 years of real estate experience and almost 10 years with Alexandria.  Our regional market directors have significant experience, expertise, as well as highly valuable relationships and networks that enable Alexandria to develop long-term relationships with preeminent life science entities.

 

Strategy

 

Alexandria’s primary business objective is to maximize stockholder value by providing its stockholders with the greatest possible total return based on a multifaceted platform of internal and external growth.  The key elements to our strategy include our consistent focus on high-quality assets and operations in the top life science cluster destinations with our properties located adjacent to life science entities driving growth and technological advances within each cluster.  These adjacency locations are characterized by high barriers to entry and exit, limited supply of available space, and represent highly desirable locations for tenancy by life science entities.  Alexandria’s strategy also includes leveraging on its deep and broad life science and real estate relationships in order to attract new and leading life science client tenants and value-added real estate opportunities through acquisitions, redevelopment, and development.

For the second quarter of 2011, we reported FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $67,158,000, or $1.15 per share (diluted), before loss on early extinguishment of debt, compared to FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $54,563,000, or $1.10 per share (diluted), before loss on early extinguishment of debt, for the second quarter of 2010.  For the six months ended June 30, 2011, we reported FFO attributed to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $130,268,000, or $2.30 per share (diluted), before loss on early extinguishment of debt, compared to FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $108,547,000, or $2.18 per share (diluted), before loss on early extinguishment of debt, for the six months ended June 30, 2010.  During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we recognized an aggregate loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $3.7 million related to the repurchases, in privately negotiated transactions, of approximately $96 million of certain of our 3.70% unsecured convertible notes and the partial and early repayment of our unsecured term loan.  Including the aggregate loss on early extinguishment of debt, FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, was $65,921,000, or $1.13 per share (diluted), and 126,557,000, or $2.23 per share (diluted), respectively.

 

FFO is a non-GAAP measure widely used by publicly traded real estate investment trusts.  We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) in its April 2002 White Paper and related implementation guidance.  A reconciliation of net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) to FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders is included in the financial information accompanying this press release.  The primary reconciling items between GAAP net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders and FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders is depreciation and amortization expense and gain on sales of property. Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $40,363,000 and $30,342,000, respectively.  Depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $77,070,000 and $60,080,000, respectively.  Net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders for the second quarter of 2011 was $25,986,000 or $0.44 per share (diluted), compared to net loss attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $20,393,000, or $0.45 per share (diluted), for the second quarter of 2010.  Net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $50,351,000, compared to net income attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders of $206,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

(1)     Due to the loss on early extinguishment of debt recognized in the three months ended June 30, 2010, FFO results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 did not assume conversion of our 8% unsecured convertible notes for FFO per share (diluted) purposes as the impact to FFO per share was antidilutive for the periods pursuant to the if-converted method of accounting.  Excluding the loss on early extinguishment of debt, the impact of the assumed conversion of our 8% unsecured convertible notes would have been dilutive to FFO (diluted) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.  For all periods since issuance of the notes in April 2009, except for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, there is no add back for the assumed conversion of our 8% unsecured convertible notes since FFO attributable to Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.’s common stockholders, as reported, already assumed conversion of our 8% unsecured convertible notes pursuant to the if-converted method of accounting.
