Prologis, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2011 Earnings Results

SAN FRANCISCO, July 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Prologis, Inc. (NYSE: PLD), the leading global owner, operator and developer of industrial real estate, today reported results for the second quarter of 2011.

On June 3, 2011, AMB Property Corporation and ProLogis completed their merger and became Prologis, Inc. Under the structure of the merger, AMB Property Corporation was the legal acquirer and ProLogis was the accounting acquirer. Therefore financial results for the second quarter reflect two months of stand-alone legacy ProLogis and approximately one month of results of the combined company. These quarterly results also reflect the consolidation, of approximately one month, of ProLogis European Properties (Euronext/Amsterdam: PEPR, hereafter "PEPR") due to the acquisition of a controlling interest by the company. All prior periods financial comparisons reflect legacy ProLogis results. The operating metric and capital deployment comparisons for 2011 have been generally conformed to legacy ProLogis definitions and represent the combined company.

Core funds from operations ("Core FFO") per fully diluted share amounted to $0.35 for the second quarter of 2011, compared to $0.28 for legacy ProLogis for the same quarter in 2010. Funds from operations, as defined by Prologis ("FFO") per fully diluted share was $0.03 for the second quarter of 2011, compared to $0.32 for legacy ProLogis, for the same period in 2010. The differential between Core FFO and FFO in the second quarter of 2011 relates to impairment charges of $0.34 per share and merger costs of $0.33 per share, offset by net gains on acquisitions and dispositions of real estate of $0.34 per share.

Net loss per share for the second quarter of 2011 was $(0.49), compared to a loss of $(0.11) for the same quarter in 2010. The year-over-year change primarily relates to the impairment charges and merger costs, again offset by net gains on acquisitions and dispositions of real estate.

"Our global footprint and access to capital provide us with the ability to seize opportunities around the world as the economic recovery continues," said Hamid R. Moghadam, chairman and co-chief executive officer. "Operating performance was strong, demonstrated by significant improvements in same-store net operating income, occupancy and rent change on rollover. We believe our company's positive performance in the second quarter is indicative of a trend that will continue through the rest of 2011 and into 2012."

Operating Portfolio Metrics

Prologis' operating portfolio was 90.7 percent occupied at the end of the second quarter, up more than 80 basis points from 89.9 percent occupied at March 31, 2011. Same-store net operating income increased by 3.1 percent for the second quarter, compared to a 0.7 percent increase in the first quarter of this year. Rental rates on leases signed in the same-store pool decreased (6.1) percent for the second quarter, a significant improvement over the (8.9) percent decline in the first quarter.

Leasing Activity  

During the second quarter, the company leased a total of 33.5 million square feet (3.1 million square meters) in its operating portfolio and 1.4 million square feet (126,348 square meters) in its development portfolio. Year-to-date, Prologis has leased approximately 68 million square feet (6.3 million square meters) in its operating and development portfolios. The company also achieved a 76.7 percent tenant retention rate for the quarter, signing 22 million square feet (2 million square meters) of renewals.

Capital Markets Activity  

During the second quarter, Prologis:

• Completed the issuance and sale of 34.5 million shares of its common stock in a public offering at a price of $33.50 per share, generating approximately $1.1 billion in net proceeds. The follow-on offering is part of the company's strategic priority to further strengthen its balance sheet.  Prologis utilized the proceeds from the equity offer to fully repay debt under the bridge facility used to fund the company's tender offer for PEPR. The remainder of the proceeds was used to reduce debt under the Prologis global senior credit facility and for general corporate purposes.
• Completed an exchange offer for $4.6 billion of legacy ProLogis senior unsecured notes and convertible debt, with approximately $4.4 billion, or 95 percent, of the aggregate principal amount of legacy ProLogis notes having been validly tendered for exchange. The legacy ProLogis notes were exchanged for notes issued by Prologis, Inc.'s operating partnership, Prologis, L.P. and guaranteed by Prologis, Inc.
• Entered into a new $1.75 billion global senior credit agreement with a syndicate of 20 banks. The pricing on the new facility represents a reduction of 180 basis points from the pricing of the legacy ProLogis global credit facility, which was terminated at the closing of the merger.
• Amended a JPY 36.5 billion ($456 million) revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of eight banks. The revised pricing on this facility represents a reduction of 70 basis points from the yen revolver pricing in place immediately prior to the amendment of the agreement.

 

As of June 30, 2011, Prologis' liquidity exceeded $1.5 billion, consisting of $1.3 billion of availability on its lines of credit and $261 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents.

Private Capital Activity

Year-to-date through June 30, 2011, Prologis raised $1.3 billion of new third-party equity in its Private Capital business, with $207 million of that amount raised in the second quarter.  

As previously announced, the company completed a mandatory tender offer for PEPR, a Luxembourg closed-ended investment fund. As of June 30, 2011 Prologis owned approximately 92.4 percent of the outstanding units of PEPR.

Also as previously announced, Prologis acquired its partner's 50 percent interest in its AMB-SGP joint venture during the second quarter.

Capital Deployment Activity

Year-to-date through June 30, 2011, the combined company deployed $796 million, $368 million of which was deployed in the second quarter. Activity in the second quarter included:

• $317 million of new development starts in seven countries. Nine of the 13 projects are build-to-suit.
• $50 million in acquisitions comprising 4 properties totaling approximately 910,000 square feet (85,000 square meters).

 

Also during the quarter, in partnership with Bank of America Merrill Lynch and NRG Energy, Prologis announced an offer of a conditional commitment from the U.S. Department of Energy's Loan Programs Office to help finance a 733-megawatt distributed rooftop solar power generation project, the largest of its kind in the world. The government loan guarantee supporting $1.4 billion of debt facilitates a total project size of about $2.6 billion, which is being financed primarily by the private sector over the next four years. Prologis will lease its rooftops and will also act as developer, construction manager and program sponsor, in addition to making a modest equity investment.

During the second quarter, the combined company completed $258 million in asset dispositions, primarily consisting of $115 million related to the closing of the remaining Catellus assets and $144 million of industrial land building sales.

Common Stock Dividend Update

Subject to approval from its board of directors, Prologis expects to declare its third-quarter dividend in September, payable in October 2011.

Integration Update

The company has identified more than $90 million of merger cost synergies including gross G&A savings, reduced facility fees on its global line of credit and lower amortization of non real estate assets. Since closing the merger, Prologis has already realized approximately 60 percent of these merger synergies and expects to realize the total amount on a run rate basis by year-end 2012.

"Our overall progress on the integration is on target and in many areas is ahead of plan," said Walter C. Rakowich co-chief executive officer. "When we put the companies together, we gained an unparalleled platform of distribution facilities throughout the world. We are able to serve customers in ways few other companies can, and we can accomplish this at an overall lower cost of capital. The organization is already beginning to benefit from combining the two businesses and, importantly, our customers are benefiting as well. The merger has primed Prologis for success globally."

Guidance for the Remainder of 2011

The company expects to achieve its previously provided Core FFO guidance of $0.78 to $0.82 per share for the second half 2011, with an expectation in the higher end of the range. The company also expects to recognize a net loss of $0.15-$0.18 per share for the second half of 2011. In reconciling from net earnings (loss) to Core FFO, Prologis adds back real estate depreciation, amortization expense and merger costs estimated at $0.93 to $1.02 per share. Net income guidance excludes any potential gains (losses) recognized from property dispositions due to the variability of timing, composition of properties and estimate of proceeds.

NOTES AND DEFINITIONS

Please refer to our annual and quarterly financial statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Forms 10-K and 10-Q and other public reports for further information about us and our business. Certain amounts from previous periods presented in the Supplemental Information have been reclassified to conform to the 2011 presentation.

Our direct owned segment represents the direct, long-term ownership of industrial properties. Our investment strategy in this segment focuses primarily on the ownership and leasing of industrial properties in key distribution markets. Our intent is to hold and use these properties; however, depending on market and other conditions, we may contribute or sell these properties to property funds, co-investment ventures or sell to third parties.  When we contribute or sell properties we have developed, we recognize FFO to the extent the proceeds received exceed our original investment (i.e. prior to depreciation) and present the results as Net Gains on Dispositions. In addition, we have industrial properties that are currently under development and land available for development that are part of this segment as well.  We may develop the land or sell to third parties, depending on market conditions, customer demand and other factors. The private capital segment represents primarily the management of unconsolidated property funds and joint ventures and the properties they own.

On June 3, 2011, AMB Property Corporation ("AMB") and ProLogis combined through a merger of equals (the "Merger").  As a result of the Merger, each outstanding share of ProLogis common shares was converted into 0.4464 shares of AMB common stock, with cash paid in lieu of fractional shares.  At the time of the Merger, AMB changed its name to Prologis, Inc.  After consideration of all applicable factors pursuant to the business combination accounting rules, the Merger resulted in a reverse acquisition in which AMB was considered the "legal acquirer" because AMB issued its common stock to ProLogis shareholders and ProLogis was considered the "accounting acquirer" due to various factors including that former ProLogis shareholders hold the largest portion of the voting rights in the merged entity and ProLogis appointees represent the majority of the Board of Directors. As such, the historical results of ProLogis are included for the full period and AMB results are included from the date of the Merger going forward.

In April 2011, we purchased 11.1 million ordinary units of ProLogis European Properties ("PEPR"), increasing our ownership interest to approximately 39%, and launched a mandatory tender offer to acquire any or all of the outstanding ordinary units and convertible preferred units of PEPR that we did not own at that time. On May 25, 2011, we settled on our mandatory tender offer. Pursuant to the tender offer and open-market purchases made during the tender period, we acquired an additional 96.5 million ordinary units and 2.7 million convertible preferred units of PEPR for an aggregate purchase price of approximately euro 615.5 million. We funded the aggregate purchases through borrowings under our existing credit facilities and a new euro 500 million bridge facility, which was subsequently repaid with proceeds received from our June equity offering.

After completion of the tender offer, we began consolidating PEPR. In addition, in accordance with the accounting rules for business combinations, we marked our equity investment in PEPR to fair value, which resulted in the recognition of a gain of euro 59.6 million ($85.9 million). Following the tender offer, and including purchases through June 30, 2011, we owned approximately 92.3% of the voting ordinary units of PEPR and 94.6% of the convertible preferred units as of June 30, 2011.

We have preliminarily allocated the aggregate purchase price related to the Merger of $5.8 billion and for PEPR of euro 1.1 billion ($1.6 billion) as set forth below. The preliminary allocations are based on our preliminary valuations, estimates and assumptions and are subject to change.  

Assets Held For Sale and Discontinued Operations. As of June 30, 2011, we had 7 land parcels and 8 operating properties that met the criteria as held for sale.  The amounts included in Assets Held for Sale include real estate investment balances and the related assets and liabilities for each property.

During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we disposed of 38 non-development properties aggregating 2.8 million square feet to third parties, including 31 properties aggregating 1.3 million square feet that were included in Assets Held for Sale at December 31, 2010. During all of 2010, we disposed of land subject to ground leases and 205 properties aggregating 25.4 million square feet to third parties, 2 of which were development properties.

The operations of the properties held for sale and properties that are disposed of to third parties during a period, including the aggregate net gains recognized upon their disposition, are presented as discontinued operations in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented. The income attributable to these properties was as follows (in thousands):

For purposes of our Consolidated Statements of FFO, we do not segregate discontinued operations.  In addition, we include the gains from disposition of land parcels and development properties in the calculation of FFO, including those classified as discontinued operations.

Calculation of Per Share Amounts are as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Core EBITDA, As Adjusted. We use Core EBITDA, as adjusted to measure both our operating performance and liquidity. We calculate Core EBITDA, as adjusted beginning with consolidated net earnings/loss and removing the affect of interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, impairment charges, gains or losses from the acquisition or disposition of investments in real estate, gains or losses on early extinguishment of debt and derivative contracts (including cash charges), similar adjustments we make to our Core FFO (see definition below), and other non-cash charges (such as stock based compensation amortization and unrealized gains or losses on foreign currency and derivative activity), including our share of these items (other than interest and current income taxes) from unconsolidated investees.

We consider Core EBITDA, as adjusted to provide investors relevant and useful information because it permits investors to view income from operations on an unleveraged basis before the effects of income tax, non-cash depreciation and amortization expense and other items (including stock-based compensation amortization and certain unrealized gains and losses), gains or losses from the acquisition or disposition of investments in real estate, items that affect comparability, and other significant non-cash items. In 2011, we adjusted Core EBITDA to include a proforma adjustment to reflect a full period of NOI on the operating properties we acquired through the Merger and PEPR acquisition and to exclude Merger, Acquisition and Other Integration Expenses and costs associated with the hurricane and tsunami that occurred in first quarter 2011 in Japan. By excluding interest expense, adjusted EBITDA allows investors to measure our operating performance independent of our capital structure and indebtedness and, therefore, allows for a more meaningful comparison of our operating performance to that of other companies, both in the real estate industry and in other industries. Gains and losses on the early extinguishment of debt and derivatives contracts generally included the costs of repurchasing debt securities. Although difficult to predict, these items may be recurring given the uncertainty of the current economic climate and its adverse effects on the real estate and financial markets. While not infrequent or unusual in nature, these items result from market fluctuations that can have inconsistent effects on our results of operations. The economics underlying these items reflect market and financing conditions in the short-term but can obscure our performance and the value of our long-term investment decisions and strategies.

As a liquidity measure, we believe that Core EBITDA, as adjusted helps investors to analyze our ability to meet interest payment obligations and to make quarterly preferred share dividends. We believe that investors should consider Core EBITDA, as adjusted in conjunction with net income (the primary measure of our performance) and the other required Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") measures of our performance and liquidity, to improve their understanding of our operating results and liquidity, and to make more meaningful comparisons of our performance against other companies. By using Core EBITDA, as adjusted, an investor is assessing the earnings generated by our operations, but not taking into account the eliminated expenses or gains incurred in connection with such operations.  As a result, core EBITDA, as adjusted has limitations as an analytical tool and should be used in conjunction with our required GAAP presentations. Core EBITDA, as adjusted does not reflect our historical cash expenditures or future cash requirements for working capital, capital expenditures distribution requirements or contractual commitments. Core EBITDA, as adjusted also does not reflect the cash required to make interest and principal payments on our outstanding debt.

While Core EBITDA, as adjusted is a relevant and widely used measure of operating performance and liquidity, it does not represent net income or cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP and it should not be considered as an alternative to those indicators in evaluating operating performance or liquidity. Further, our computation of Core EBITDA, as adjusted may not be comparable to EBITDA reported by other companies. We compensate for the limitations of Core EBITDA, as adjusted  by providing investors with financial statements prepared according to GAAP, along with this detailed discussion of Core EBITDA, as adjusted and a reconciliation of Core EBITDA, as adjusted to consolidated net earnings (loss), a GAAP measurement.

FFO; FFO, as defined by Prologis; FFO, excluding significant non-cash items; Core FFO (collectively referred to as "FFO"). FFO is a non-GAAP measure that is commonly used in the real estate industry. The most directly comparable GAAP measure to FFO is net earnings. Although the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") has published a definition of FFO, modifications to the NAREIT calculation of FFO are common among REITs, as companies seek to provide financial measures that meaningfully reflect their business.

FFO is not meant to represent a comprehensive system of financial reporting and does not present, nor do we intend it to present, a complete picture of our financial condition and operating performance. We believe net earnings computed under GAAP remains the primary measure of performance and that FFO is only meaningful when it is used in conjunction with net earnings computed under GAAP. Further, we believe our consolidated financial statements, prepared in accordance with GAAP, provide the most meaningful picture of our financial condition and our operating performance.

We calculate FFO, as defined by Prologis for our unconsolidated investees on the same basis as we calculate our FFO, as defined by Prologis.

We use this FFO measure, including by segment and region, to: (i) evaluate our performance and the performance of our properties in comparison to expected results and results of previous periods, relative to resource allocation decisions; (ii) evaluate the performance of our management; (iii) budget and forecast future results to assist in the allocation of resources; (iv) assess our performance as compared to similar real estate companies and the industry in general; and (v) evaluate how a specific potential investment will impact our future results. Because we make decisions with regard to our performance with a long-term outlook, we believe it is appropriate to remove the effects of short-term items that we do not expect to affect the underlying long-term performance of the properties. The long-term performance of our properties is principally driven by rental income. While not infrequent or unusual, these additional items we exclude in calculating FFO, as defined by Prologis, are subject to significant fluctuations from period to period that cause both positive and negative short-term effects on our results of operations, in inconsistent and unpredictable directions that are not relevant to our long-term outlook.

We believe investors are best served if the information that is made available to them allows them to align their analysis and evaluation of our operating results along the same lines that our management uses in planning and executing our business strategy.

FFO, excluding significant non-cash items

When we began to experience the effects of the global economic crises in the fourth quarter of 2008, we decided that FFO, as defined by Prologis, did not provide all of the information we needed to evaluate our business in this environment. As a result, we developed FFO, excluding significant non-cash items to provide additional information that allowed us to better evaluate our operating performance during that unprecedented economic time.  Beginning in 2011, we no longer use FFO, excluding significant non-cash items.

Core FFO

Core FFO includes FFO, as defined by Prologis, adjusted to remove gains (losses) on acquisitions or dispositions of investments in real estate that are included in FFO, as defined by Prologis. If we recognize impairment charges due to the expected disposition of investments in real estate, we exclude those impairment charges.  We may also adjust for certain other significant items that affect comparability as noted in the reconciliation.  In 2011, we have adjusted to exclude Merger, Acquisitions and Other Integration Expenses and losses for the hurricanes and tsunamis in March 2011 in Japan.  

Limitations on Use of our FFO Measures

While we believe our defined FFO measures are important supplemental measures, neither NAREIT's nor our measures of FFO should be used alone because they exclude significant economic components of net earnings computed under GAAP and are, therefore, limited as an analytical tool. Accordingly, they are two of many measures we use when analyzing our business.  Some of these limitations are:

• The current income tax expenses that are excluded from our defined FFO measures represent the taxes that are payable.
• Depreciation and amortization of real estate assets are economic costs that are excluded from FFO. FFO is limited, as it does not reflect the cash requirements that may be necessary for future replacements of the real estate assets. Further, the amortization of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of industrial properties are not reflected in FFO.
• Gains or losses from property acquisitions and dispositions or impairment charges related to expected dispositions represent changes in the value of the properties. By excluding these gains and losses, FFO does not capture realized changes in the value of acquired or disposed properties arising from changes in market conditions.
• The deferred income tax benefits and expenses that are excluded from our defined FFO measures result from the creation of a deferred income tax asset or liability that may have to be settled at some future point. Our defined FFO measures do not currently reflect any income or expense that may result from such settlement.
• The foreign currency exchange gains and losses that are excluded from our defined FFO measures are generally recognized based on movements in foreign currency exchange rates through a specific point in time. The ultimate settlement of our foreign currency-denominated net assets is indefinite as to timing and amount. Our FFO measures are limited in that they do not reflect the current period changes in these net assets that result from periodic foreign currency exchange rate movements.  

 

We compensate for these limitations by using our FFO measures only in conjunction with net earnings computed under GAAP when making our decisions. To assist investors in compensating for these limitations, we reconcile our defined FFO measures to our net earnings computed under GAAP. This information should be read with our complete financial statements prepared under GAAP.

General and Administrative Expenses ("G&A") consisted of the following (in thousands):

Impairment of Other Assets. During the three months ended June 30, 2011, we recognized impairment charges related to two of our investments in property funds, as we believed the decline in value of our investments to be other than temporary and due to a pending sale of our interest to our fund partner.

Interest Expense consisted of the following (in thousands):

Merger, Acquisition and Other Integration Expenses. In connection with the Merger, we have incurred and expect to incur additional significant transaction, integration, and transitional costs. These costs include investment banker advisory fees; legal, tax, accounting and valuation fees; termination and severance costs (both cash and stock based compensation awards) for terminated and transitional employees; system conversion; and other integration costs. Certain of these costs were obligations of AMB and were expensed prior to the closing of the Merger by AMB. The remainder of the costs will be expensed by us as incurred, which in some cases will be through the end of 2012. At the time of the merger, we cancelled our existing credit facilities and wrote-off the remaining unamortized deferred loan costs associated with such facilities, which is included. In addition, we have included costs associated with the acquisition of a controlling interest in PEPR and reduction in workforce charges associated with dispositions made or expected to be made in 2011. The following is a breakdown of the costs incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 (in thousands):

Rental Income includes the following (in thousands):
