INDIANAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Kite Realty Group Trust (NYSE: KRG) (the “Company”) today announced
results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2010. Financial statements
and exhibits attached to this release include results for the three
months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.
Financial and Operating Results
For the three months ended March 31, 2010, funds from operations (FFO),
a widely accepted supplemental measure of REIT performance established
by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, was $7.1
million for the Kite Portfolio, or $0.10 per diluted share. In the first
quarter of 2009, FFO for the Kite Portfolio was $8.3 million, or $0.20
per diluted share. The decrease in diluted FFO per share between years
was primarily a result of the dilution from the issuance of 28.8 million
shares in the Company’s May 2009 common share offering as well as lower
gains on sales of land and outlot parcels of $0.6 million.
FFO allocable to the Company for the first quarter of 2010 was $6.3
million compared to $6.7 million for the same period of the prior year.
The Company’s total revenue for the first quarter of 2010 was $25.6
million, down from $30.2 million for the same period in 2009. This
decrease was primarily a result of lower construction activity ($4.3
million) and lower gains on sales of land and outlot parcels ($0.6
million). The Company recorded a net loss of $1.1 million for the first
quarter of 2010, compared to net income of $0.7 million in the prior
year. The decline reflects higher depreciation charges of $1.1 million,
lower construction activity and lower gains on land and outlot sales.
John A. Kite, Kite Realty Group’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
said, “We posted another strong quarter of leasing activity, and
operating results in the quarter met our expectations. The leasing
environment continues to improve, and we are diligently working to
capitalize on opportunities. We remain focused on further strengthening
our balance sheet, increasing occupancy in our operating portfolio and
completing our in-process developments.”
Operating Portfolio
As of March 31, 2010, the Company owned interests in 51 retail operating
properties totaling approximately 8.4 million square feet. The owned
gross leasable area (“GLA”) in the Company’s retail operating portfolio
was 90.0% leased as of March 31, 2010, compared to 90.1% leased as of
the end of the prior quarter.
In addition, the Company owns four commercial operating properties
totaling approximately 499,200 square feet. As of March 31, 2010, the
owned net rentable area of the commercial operating portfolio was
unchanged from the prior quarter at 96.2% leased. For the combined
retail and commercial operating portfolio, the leased percentage was
90.6% as of March 31, 2010, compared to 90.7% at the end of the prior
quarter.
On a same property basis, the leased percentage of the Company’s 52
operating properties was 90.6% at March 31, 2010 and 91.7% at March 31,
2009. Same property net operating income for these properties decreased
2.9% in the first quarter of 2010 compared to the same period in the
prior year. Same store NOI growth will be positively impacted in the
latter half of 2010 by rent from recently executed junior anchor leases.
Leasing Activities
During the first quarter of 2010, the Company executed 23 new and
renewal leases totaling 345,600 square feet. New leases were signed with
12 tenants for approximately 53,100 square feet of GLA and represent a
5.4% cash rent spread. A total of 11 leases for 292,500 square feet were
renewed during the quarter. Rental rates for these renewals were
approximately 0.3% below previous rents. The renewal production includes
the 237,500 square foot lease with Macy’s at Glendale Town Center.
The Company is currently in various stages of negotiations for 40 new
and renewal leases with tenants for a total of approximately 200,000
square feet.
Development Activities
As of March 31, 2010, the Company owned interests in two projects under
construction that are expected to total approximately 297,700 owned
square feet. The total estimated cost of these projects is approximately
$87 million, of which approximately $78million had been incurred
as of March 31, 2010. The Company also has five properties in
redevelopment representing a total of approximately 493,800 square feet.
Financing Activities
As previously announced, the Company has satisfied all of its 2010 debt
maturities. During the quarter, the Company completed the following
financing activities:
- The South Elgin Commons loan was reduced to a balance of $9.4 million.
The maturity date was extended to September 2013 at an interest rate
of LIBOR plus 325 basis points, subject to a LIBOR floor of 2.0%.
-
The construction loan on Cobblestone Plaza was reduced to a balance of
$28 million and the maturity date was extended to February 2013 at an
interest rate of LIBOR plus 350 basis points.
-
The Shops at Rivers Edge loan was reduced to a balance of $14.3
million and the maturity date was extended to February 2013 at an
interest rate of LIBOR plus 400 basis points.
These loan extensions were completed with an average 9% paydown of the
outstanding balances at the date of the extensions.
Distributions
On March 16, 2010, the Board of Trustees declared a quarterly cash
distribution of $0.06 per common share for the quarter ended March 31,
2010 to shareholders of record as of April 7, 2010. This distribution
was paid on April 16, 2010. The Board of Trustees continues to evaluate
current economic and market conditions and anticipates declaring a
quarterly cash distribution for the quarter ending June 30, 2010 later
in the second quarter.
FFO Guidance
The Company is reaffirming its earnings and FFO guidance for the year
ending December 31, 2010 in a range $0.42 to $0.47 per diluted share.

Funds From Operations
The Company’s business is the ownership, operation and management of
real estate. It believes that Funds From Operations (FFO) is helpful to
investors when measuring operating performance because it excludes
various items that are considered in the determination of net income
that do not relate to or are not indicative of operating performance,
such as gains or losses from sales of operating properties and
depreciation and amortization, which can make periodic and peer analyses
of operating performance more difficult. A reconciliation of net income
to FFO is included in the attached table.

Management will host a conference call on Thursday, May 6, 2010 at 1:00
p.m. EDT to discuss financial and operating results for the quarter
