RPT RPT Realty

RPT Realty (NYSE:RPT) (the "Company" or "RPT") today announced its financial and operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.

"We are pleased with our second quarter results as we continue to drive robust leasing volumes and historic double-digit rent growth, exemplified by rent spreads of 56.0% and 10.7% on new and renewal leases, respectively," said Brian Harper, President and CEO. "Leasing volume eclipsed 500,000 square feet for the fourth consecutive quarter, highlighted by the signing of several leases with high-credit, national tenants to backfill our Bed Bath & Beyond stores. Given our proactive approach that began over a year ago, we are ahead of our internal expectations on re-leasing our Bed Bath & Beyond locations, which we believe will be a significant driver of near-term growth. As we look forward to the second half of the year, we expect leasing volumes to remain elevated as we march towards our two million square feet leasing goal, positioning us for near and long-term top and bottom-line growth.”

FINANCIAL RESULTS

Net (loss) income attributable to common shareholders for the second quarter 2023 of $(1.6) million, or $(0.02) per diluted share, compared to $5.1 million, or $0.06 per diluted share for the same period in 2022.

Funds from operations ("FFO") for the second quarter 2023 of $24.1 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, compared to $22.0 million, or $0.23 per diluted share for the same period in 2022.

Operating FFO for the second quarter 2023 of $23.5 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, compared to $25.3 million or $0.27 per diluted share for the same period in 2022. Operating FFO for the second quarter 2023 excludes certain net income that totaled $0.6 million, primarily attributable to a gain on sale of land. The change in operating FFO per share was primarily attributable to lower NOI at properties under redevelopment and higher rental income not probable of collection.

Same property NOI during the second quarter 2023 increased 0.3% compared to the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily driven by higher base rent growth of 3.4%, after adjusting for abatements associated with offsetting reversals of rent not probable of collection, partially offset by higher rent not probable of collection after adjusting for reversals associated with offsetting abatements of base rent and lower net recovery income. Please see slide 20 of our Second Quarter 2023 Earnings Presentation for additional details.

OPERATING RESULTS

The Company's operating results include its consolidated properties and its pro-rata share of unconsolidated joint venture properties for the aggregate portfolio.

During the second quarter 2023, the Company signed 88 leases totaling 527,440 square feet. Blended re-leasing spreads on comparable leases were 21.1% with ABR of $19.34 per square foot. Re-leasing spreads on 12 comparable new and 58 renewal leases were 56.0% and 10.7%, respectively.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $9.3 million of signed not commenced rent and recovery income.

BALANCE SHEET

The Company ended the second quarter 2023 with $6.1 million in consolidated cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and $471.0 million of unused capacity on its $500.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility. At June 30, 2023, the Company had approximately $854.1 million of consolidated notional debt and finance lease obligations. Including the Company's pro-rata share of joint venture cash and notional debt of $3.3 million and $53.8 million, respectively, resulted in a second quarter 2023 net debt to annualized adjusted EBITDA ratio of 6.8x.

Total debt including RPT's pro-rata share of joint venture debt had a weighted average interest rate of 3.75% and a weighted average maturity of 4.7 years.

DIVIDEND

As previously announced, on July 27, 2023, the Board of Trustees declared a third quarter 2023 regular cash dividend of $0.14 per common share. The Board of Trustees also approved a third quarter 2023 Series D convertible preferred share dividend of $0.90625 per share.

2023 GUIDANCE

The Company is maintaining its 2023 operating FFO per diluted share guidance at $0.97 to $1.01. Selected expectations are outlined below.

Guidance and Selected Expectations	Prior 2023 Guidance	Current 2023 Guidance	YTD Actual as ofJune 30, 2023
Operating FFO per diluted share	$0.97 to $1.01	$0.97 to $1.01	$0.50
Same property NOI growth(1)	1.50% to 3.25%	1.75% to 3.00%	2.0%

(1) Same property NOI growth includes unfavorable impacts from assumed elevated bad debt expense and occupancy loss due to tenant bankruptcies.

The Company does not provide a reconciliation for non-GAAP estimates on a forward-looking basis, including the information under "2023 Guidance" above, where it is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and/or amount of various items that would impact net income attributable to common stockholders per diluted share, which is the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure. This includes, for example, acquisition costs and other non-core items that have not yet occurred, are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures provided without the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding GAAP financial measures.

The Company’s 2023 guidance reflects management’s view of current and future market conditions, including current expectations with respect to rental rates, occupancy levels, tenant bankruptcies, acquisitions and dispositions and debt and equity financing activities. To the extent actual results differ from our current expectations, the Company’s results may differ materially from the guidance set forth above. Other factors, as referenced elsewhere in this press release, may also cause the Company’s results to differ materially from the guidance set forth above.

RPT RealtyNon-GAAP Financial Definitions

Certain of our key performance indicators are considered non-GAAP financial measures. Management uses these measures along with our GAAP financial statements in order to evaluate our operations results. We believe these measures provide additional and useful means to assess our performance. These measures do not represent alternatives to GAAP measures as indicators of performance and a comparison of the Company's presentations to similarly titled measures of other REITs may not necessarily be meaningful due to possible differences in definition and application by such REITs.

Funds From Operations (FFO)As defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT), Funds From Operations (FFO) represents net income computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of operating real estate assets and impairment provisions on operating real estate assets or on investments in non-consolidated investees that are driven by measurable decreases in the fair value of operating real estate assets held by the investee, plus depreciation and amortization of depreciable real estate, (excluding amortization of financing costs). Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. We have adopted the NAREIT definition in our computation of FFO.

Operating FFOIn addition to FFO, we include Operating FFO as an additional measure of our financial and operating performance. Operating FFO excludes transactions costs and periodic items such as gains (or losses) from sales of non-operating real estate assets and impairment provisions on non-operating real estate assets, bargain purchase gains, severance expense, accelerated amortization of debt premiums, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, insured proceeds, net, accelerated write-offs of above and below market lease intangibles, accelerated write-offs of lease incentives and payment of loan amendment fees that are not adjusted under the current NAREIT definition of FFO. We provide a reconciliation of FFO to Operating FFO. In future periods, Operating FFO may also include other adjustments, which will be detailed in the reconciliation for such measure, that we believe will enhance comparability of Operating FFO from period to period. FFO and Operating FFO should not be considered alternatives to GAAP net income available to common shareholders or as alternatives to cash flow as measures of liquidity.

While we consider FFO available to common shareholders and Operating FFO available to common shareholders useful measures for reviewing our comparative operating and financial performance between periods or to compare our performance to different REITs, our computations of FFO and Operating FFO may differ from the computations utilized by other real estate companies, and therefore, may not be comparable. We recognize the limitations of FFO and Operating FFO when compared to GAAP net income available to common shareholders. FFO and Operating FFO available to common shareholders do not represent amounts available for needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations, or other commitments and uncertainties. In addition, FFO and Operating FFO do not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and are not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs, including the payment of dividends.

Net Operating Income (NOI) / Same Property NOI / NOI from Other InvestmentsNOI consists of (i) rental income and other property income, before straight-line rental income, amortization of lease inducements, amortization of acquired above and below market lease intangibles and lease termination fees less (ii) real estate taxes and all recoverable and non-recoverable operating expenses other than straight-line ground rent expense, in each case, including our share of these items from our R2G Venture LLC and RGMZ Venture REIT LLC unconsolidated joint ventures.

NOI, Same Property NOI and NOI from Other Investments are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures of real estate companies' operating performance. Same Property NOI is considered by management to be a relevant performance measure of our operations because it includes only the NOI of comparable multi-tenant operating properties for the reporting period. Same Property NOI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 represents NOI from the Company's same property portfolio consisting of 39 consolidated operating properties and our 51.5% pro-rata share of 11 properties owned by our R2G Venture LLC unconsolidated joint venture. Given the relative immateriality of our pro-rata share of RGMZ Venture REIT LLC in all periods presented, we have excluded it from Same Property NOI. All properties included in Same Property NOI were either acquired or placed in service and stabilized prior to January 1, 2022. We present Same Property NOI primarily to show the percentage change in our NOI from period to period across a consistent pool of properties. Same Property NOI excludes properties under redevelopment or where activities have started in preparation for redevelopment. A property is designated as a redevelopment when planned improvements significantly impact the property. NOI from Other Investments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 represents pro-rata NOI primarily from (i) properties disposed of and acquired during 2022, (ii) Hunter's Square, Marketplace of Delray and The Crossroads (R2G) where the Company has begun activities in anticipation of future redevelopment, (iii) properties held for sale as of June 30, 2023, (iv) certain property related employee compensation, benefits, and travel expense and (v) noncomparable operating income and expense adjustments.

NOI, Same Property NOI and NOI from Other Investments should not be considered as alternatives to net income in accordance with GAAP or as measures of liquidity. Our method of calculating these measures may differ from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

RPT RealtyNon-GAAP Financial Definitions (continued)

Net DebtNet Debt represents (i) our total debt principal, which excludes unamortized premium and deferred financing costs, net, plus (ii) our finance lease obligation, plus (iii) our pro-rata share of total debt principal, which excludes unamortized discount and deferred financing costs, net, of each of our unconsolidated entities, less (iv) our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, less (v) our pro-rata share of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of each of our unconsolidated entities. We present net debt to show the ratio of our net debt to our proforma Adjusted EBITDA.

EBITDAre/Adjusted EBITDA/Proforma Adjusted EBITDANAREIT defines EBITDAre as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, plus interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization and impairment of depreciable real estate and in substance real estate equity investments; plus or minus gains or losses from sales of operating real estate assets and interests in real estate equity investments; and adjustments to reflect our share of unconsolidated real estate joint ventures and partnerships for these items. The Company calculates EBITDAre in a manner consistent with the NAREIT definition. The Company also presents Adjusted EBITDA which is EBITDAre net of other items that we believe enhance comparability of Adjusted EBITDA across periods and are listed as adjustments in the applicable reconciliation. EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative measure of operating results or cash flow from operations as determined in accordance with GAAP.

Pro-RataWe present certain financial information on a “pro-rata” basis or including “pro-rata” adjustments. Unless otherwise specified, pro-rata financial information includes our proportionate economic ownership of each of our unconsolidated joint ventures derived on an entity-by-entity basis by applying the ownership percentage interest used to arrive at our share of the net operations for the period consistent with the application of the equity method of accounting to each of our unconsolidated joint ventures. See page 33 of our quarterly financial and operating supplement for a discussion of important considerations and limitations that you should be aware of when reviewing financial information that we present on a pro-rata basis or include pro-rata adjustments.

OccupancyOccupancy is defined, for a property or group of properties, as the ratio, expressed as a percentage, of (a) the number of square feet of such property economically occupied by tenants under leases with an initial term of greater than one year, to (b) the aggregate number of square feet for such property.

Leased RateLeased Rate is defined, for a property or group of properties, as the ratio, expressed as a percentage, of (a) the number of square feet of such property under leases with an initial term of greater than one year, including signed leases not yet commenced, to (b) the aggregate number of square feet for such property.
