JENKINTOWN, Pa., Feb. 28 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- American Financial Realty Trust (AFR) (NYSE: AFR) , today reported financial results for the quarter ended December 31, 2006. The Company reported fourth quarter revenues from continuing operations of $106.2 million, a decrease of $17.1 million from the third quarter of 2006, which is based on previously reported amounts (not adjusted for changes resulting from discontinued operations). The decrease in revenues from the third quarter is primarily attributable to the reclassification of 208 buildings containing approximately 5.3 million square feet from continuing operations to discontinued operations as part of the Company's previously announced repositioning plan.
Fourth quarter funds from operations ("FFO")(1), computed in accordance with the definition of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, was $(75.4) million or $(0.57) per share, a decrease of $(47.5) million or $(0.36) per share, compared to the third quarter of 2006 based upon the Company's weighted average diluted common shares and Operating Partnership units outstanding during the period of 132.4 million. The decrease in FFO from the third quarter is principally the result of impairment and defeasance charges recognized in the period for assets sold or reclassified as Held-for- Sale. Gains recognized on related asset sales are not recognized for the purpose of computing FFO.
Fourth quarter adjusted funds from operations ("AFFO")(2) (inclusive of repositioning charges of $0.4 million, which was approximately $1.0 million less than our previous estimate) was $21.4 million or $0.16 on a per share equivalent basis. This compares favorably to third quarter 2006 by $26.7 million, which reported AFFO of $(5.3) million. The difference between quarters is primarily the result of $25.0 million in MG&A and cash severance related costs.
Full Year Results
Full year AFFO was $62.9 million or $0.48 per share after all costs and expenses related to the repositioning of $26.6 million or $0.20 per share. Before these costs and expenses, AFFO would have been $89.5 million or $0.68 per share.
2006 Fourth Quarter Dividend
AFR declared a quarterly dividend for shareholders of beneficial interest of $0.19 per share totaling approximately $25.3 million. The dividend was paid on January 19, 2007, to shareholders and Operating Partnership unitholders of record as of December 31, 2006.
Fourth Quarter 2006 Highlights
Occupancy(3): Stable occupancy of 87.5%; Total occupancy of 86.9%; and Same Store occupancy of 93.1%. As of December 31, 2006, the portfolio included within continuing operations had occupancy of 91.5%, while the non- core assets reclassified as Held-for-Sale had an average occupancy percentage of 67.2%.
Dispositions: $917.2 million of gross proceeds from the sale of 27 properties. During the quarter the Company also terminated three leasehold obligations at a cost of $0.5 million. Combined, these dispositions and terminations resulted in a reduction to its real estate portfolio of 1.5 million square feet, which included approximately 283,000 square feet of vacancy.
Acquisitions: $55.8 million comprising 43 properties, including two land parcels, of which 25 were acquired vacant, subject to an outstanding Formulated Price Contact (FPC). All properties aggregating approximately 290,000 rentable square feet, of which approximately 170,000 square feet were occupied.
Leasing: 260,600 square feet of new leasing, resulting in net leasing of approximately 138,300 square feet, excluding recapture space.
Strategic Positioning Update
Harold W. Pote, Chief Executive Officer for AFR, said, "This quarter's results reflect real progress on all fronts in the repositioning of our company. As I will enumerate, we have executed our repositioning plan very effectively. The financial impact of the plan has been largely reflected in the quarter. We have made every effort to recognize all repositioning related costs and to reclassify into the Held-for-Sale category all properties which are targeted for disposition. Thus, we believe our shareholders will now be able to understand future period operating results with clarity. "
"Relative to our announced plan:
Step 1. Sell between $1.5-2.0 billion in assets which are either off-
strategy or non-core to our customer relationships, or represent a drag on
shareholder value.
"During this quarter we completed approximately $917.2 million of property
dispositions. These dispositions are in each of the two categories of
assets we identified in our disposition criteria. The most significant
disposition of the period was the sale of State Street Financial Center
for $889 million. This is an example of an asset which offered neither
potential net operating income growth, nor opportunity for additional
acquisitions from the customer. Second, we completed the sale of 26 non-
core properties for approximately $28.2 million. We identified and moved
into the Held-for-Sale category 208 properties comprising approximately
$575.0 million of both non-core and non-relational assets at net book
value, which we anticipate will be sold by the end of 2007."
Step 2. Rationalize the Company's liability structure by reducing leverage
(the ratio of our net debt to total book value assets) to between 60-65%
and improve net cash flow by repaying debt with high interest rates or
debt service constants.
"During the fourth quarter we repaid or extinguished approximately $861.3
million of debt, the proceeds for which were sourced primarily through the
sale of State Street. At year end, we made significant progress towards
our de-leveraging objective, which resulted in the reduction of our net
debt to total book value asset ratio from 71.6% to 66.6%."
Step 3. Reduce general and administrative costs by $6-8 million.
"This was accomplished by year-end 2006, when the annualized G&A run rate,
inclusive of non-cash equity compensation costs, stood at $ 27.4 million
compared to $35.4 million in the second quarter (net of expiring IPO
related non-cash equity compensation), and we continue to seek additional
economies."
Step 4. Reduce the dividend by 30% to $0.19 per share per quarter and
strive to cover this dividend from operating cash flow by the second half
of 2007.
"AFFO coverage of the dividend paid improved from 43% for the nine months
ended September 30, 2006 to 85.1% in the fourth quarter."
Step 5. Restore AFR's credibility in the markets by clearer enunciation
of our strategy, enhanced financial reporting and consistent execution.
"As we have committed in the past, we have endeavored to get the financial
effects of the repositioning reflected in the results of this quarter. By
moving 208 properties into a Held-for-Sale status, we have minimized the
disruptiveness of reclassifications in these future periods to
discontinued operations."
Mr. Pote concluded, "We will continue to communicate our progress in completing our repositioning strategy. However, our primary focus is now turned to improving our core operating performance and acquisition of new assets."
Fourth Quarter Results
All financial comparisons to prior periods are based on previously reported amounts, which are not adjusted for changes resulting from discontinued operations.
The Company reported AFFO(4) of $21.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2006 or $0.16 on a per share equivalent basis (inclusive of Operating Partnership units). The Company recognized all anticipated costs associated with its repositioning in 2006. As such, the fourth quarter results reflect both the direct MG&A related expenses associated with the repositioning, as well as asset valuation adjustments associated with the Company's rationalization of its real estate portfolio.
MG&A costs related to repositioning had a limited impact on operating results. All MG&A related costs that the Company anticipates to incur have been recognized as repositioning costs in the results reported as of December 31, 2006.
During the fourth quarter, the Company completed a detailed review of its real estate portfolio. The principal objective of this review was to determine which of its assets did not provide for long term growth in customer relationships and did not meet its long term investment criteria. As a result, 208 properties were reclassified as Held-for-Sale, resulting in the significant variance to the prior quarter relative to discontinued operations. These 208 properties include four large office properties, the sale of which will provide significant proceeds from which the Company will pay-down debt or fund new acquisitions supporting the achievement of one of its prime repositioning objectives related to reducing overall debt levels. The remaining assets were deemed to be non-core properties. In the course of this review, impairment charges totaling $45.6 million were recognized on 120 of the non-core properties classified as Held-for-Sale. The Company expects GAAP gains, which can only be recognized when sales are completed on the remaining pool of disposition assets, to compare favorably to the amount of this impairment.
The Company completed the sale of State Street Financial Center, a key objective of its repositioning plan, during the quarter. The sale of this asset resulted in a GAAP gain of $225.8 million. Economic gains related to this sale were approximately $106.7 million. Economic gains from all period sales totaled $109.6 million, of which $84.7 million was applied to offset debt defeasance and impairments related to assets either sold or reclassified as Held-for-Sale and the costs related to the repayment of property level debt for the calculation of AFFO.
EBITDA increased by $26.1 million over the third quarter of 2006, primarily resulting from the MG&A and severance related repositioning costs recognized in the third quarter of $29.8 million, which was offset in part by net operating income attributable to assets classified as Held-for-Sale.
Interest expense related to continuing operations, excluding the amortization of deferred financing costs, totaled $34.9 million, a decrease of $1.9 million from the $36.8 million reported in the third quarter of 2006. The decrease in interest expense primarily reflects the impact of debt related to assets classified as Held-for-Sale, offset by working capital borrowings in the period and the paydown of the acquisition credit facility on December 28, 2006.
Fourth Quarter 2006 Portfolio and Tenant Overview
Disposition activity:
During the quarter, 27 properties were sold and three leaseholds were terminated comprising approximately 1.5 million square feet, of which 283,000 square feet were vacant, resulting in gross proceeds of $917.2 million. Included among these properties were the sale of the State Street Financial Center and 26 non-core assets.
Acquisition Activity:
The Company acquired 14 fully occupied bank branches and two small office properties from Sterling Bank for $28.8 million inclusive of acquisition costs. The bank properties were leased to Sterling Bank on a triple net long term basis. The lease income stream provides for annual escalations of rent, while transferring all costs of operation of the properties to Sterling Bank.
Hal Pote, President and CEO said, "Our recent acquisition and sale lease- back to Sterling Bank is an example of the external growth potential that exists in the mid-tier regional bank market."
The Company also acquired 25 vacant bank branch properties and two land parcels for $25.9 million. The branches comprise approximately 112,000 rentable square feet.
Leasing activity:
New and expanded leasing activity for the quarter added approximately 260,600 square feet of new and expanded occupied space with average rent per square foot of $12.28(5). Associated tenant improvement costs, calculated on a weighted average lease term of 9.64 years, were $0.69 per square foot per year. At December 31, 2006, total potential recapture space remaining in two portfolios was approximately 268,300 square feet, a significant portion of which is expected to become available by the end of first quarter 2007.

Chief Financial Officer Dave Nettina commented, "As we stated on August 17th, we are committed to providing our investors straightforward and transparent financial reporting. Last quarter we committed that we would recognize all costs associated with the repositioning in this current quarter, which is reflected in the charge to G&A costs and the classification of 208 properties to Held-for-Sale. Having done so, readers of our financial statements will be able to track the completion of these transactions within discontinued operations, which are meant to unlock shareholder value, without these transactions confusing the results of ongoing operations.
We are now transitioning our focus to growth in shareholder value, which investors will be able to monitor from our reported results from ongoing core operations and profitable new acquisitions. Key to our repositioning plan is our ability to maintain the high level of income derived from credit tenants, which we project will be approximately 76% following our disposition program, which will reduce the number of properties in our investment portfolio by approximately 23%. The disposition of these under-performing assets will result in higher levels of tenant occupancy, which we project will be between 90% to 92%, and result in increased net operating income resulting from the elimination of carry costs associated with these non-core properties," concluded Mr. Nettina.
Balance Sheet
As of December 31, 2006, the Company's total debt (net of cash and certain escrow balances) to adjusted enterprise value (net debt and equity market capitalization) was 60.4%, and the ratio of net debt to Total Assets at net book value was 66.6%. This compares favorably to the prior quarter in which the ratio of net debt to Total Assets was 71.6%. The Company has stated that it is targeting a general reduction of its overall leverage to a range of 60- 65% of debt to total assets at net book value and, as the quarter end results indicate, it has made significant progress toward achieving this goal. The ratio of net secured debt to total real estate investments and real estate intangibles (at cost) was 52.7%, an improvement of 630 basis points over the prior quarter. The improvement in these ratios is primarily the result of the sale and repayment of related property level debt on State Street Financial Center and the repayment of other debt with net proceeds from the sale.
Debt principal repayments and defeasance related to asset dispositions totaled $788.0 million during the quarter, which includes $589.6 million relating to debt and defeasance costs on the sale of the State Street Financial Center. The State Street Financial Center debt had a weighted average interest rate of 5.93% and a debt constant of 7.75% at the time of repayment, while the leverage ratio of debt to net book value was 82.1%. In addition to State Street, other property related debt of $198.4 was repaid. This included $150.3 million repayment of our acquisition line of credit, 24 small mortgage loans with relative high constants and the repayment of a short term acquisition note of $40.3 million.
As of December 31, 2006, the Company had total indebtedness of approximately $2.4 billion, with a weighted average remaining term of 9.5 years and a weighted average interest rate (including amortized hedging costs) of 5.66%, which is lower than the previous quarter's average of 5.74%. Debt decreased by approximately $650.8 million, compared to September 30, 2006.
Subsequent Events:
First quarter asset sales:
-- HSBC Operations center, 158,000 square feet, sold for $27.5 million.
This asset represented an asset acquired from another landlord and
which was unlikely to result in repeat business with the bank.
-- Bank of America Financial Center-Spokane, 328,000 square feet, sold
for $36.0 million. This asset had relatively low occupancy by Bank of
America and did not meet our criteria to be Held-for-Investment.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company believes that FFO and AFFO are helpful to investors as measures of the Company's performance as an equity REIT because they provide investors with an understanding of the Company's operating performance and profitability. FFO and AFFO are non-GAAP financial measures commonly used in the REIT industry, and therefore these measures may be useful in comparing the Company's performance with that of other REITs. However, the Company's definitions of FFO and AFFO may differ from those used by other companies, and investors should take definitional differences into account when comparing FFO and AFFO reported by other REITs. Additionally, FFO and AFFO (and their per share equivalents) should be evaluated along with GAAP net income and net income per share (the most directly comparable GAAP measures) in evaluating the performance of equity REITs.
The Company believes that EBITDA, which represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, is also helpful to investors as a measure of the Company's performance.

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this press release constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. You can identify these statements by our use of the words "expects," "anticipates," "estimates," "intends," "believes" and similar expressions that do not relate to historical information. You should exercise caution in interpreting and relying on forward-looking statements because they involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties which are, in some cases, beyond the Company's control and could materially affect actual results, performance or achievements. These risks and uncertainties include the risks detailed from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and include, without limitation, changes in general economic conditions and the extent of any tenant bankruptcies and insolvencies; the Company's ability to maintain and increase occupancy; the Company's ability to timely lease or re-lease space at anticipated net effective rents; the cost and availability of debt and equity financing; and the Company's ability to acquire and dispose of certain of its assets from time to time on acceptable terms. The Company assumes no obligation to update or supplement forward-looking statements that become untrue because of subsequent events.
Financial Statements
The attached financial statements and data are presented to supplement the Company's audited and unaudited regulatory filings and should be read in conjunction with those filings. The unaudited financial data presented herein is provided from the perspective of timeliness to assist readers of quarterly and annual financial filings. This financial data was prepared prior to the Company's auditors completing their audit. As such, data otherwise contained in future regulatory filings covering this same time period may differ from the data presented herein. The Company does not accept responsibility for highlighting these changes in its subsequent filings.
(1) FFO is defined as net income (loss) before minority interest, in our
operating partnership (computed in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles), excluding gains (or losses) from debt
restructuring and gains (or losses) from sales of property, less any
impairments of asset values at cost (unrealized loss), plus real
estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization
of deferred costs) and after adjustments for unconsolidated
partnerships and joint ventures.
(2) Commencing with the third quarter 2006, AFFO no longer includes GAAP
gains (the difference between sale price and net book value (original
purchase price less accumulated depreciation)) as a component of
AFR's core earnings. The Company includes economic gains (the
difference between sale price and original purchase price) realized
during the reporting period solely to offset transaction costs
incurred on assets sold and impairments taken within the same period.
Quarter over quarter and year over year AFFO comparisons for 2006 and
2005 using the Company's revised AFFO reporting methodology were
presented in its October 9, 2006 press release, which is available on
the Company's website.
(3) Stable occupancy is the total occupancy less any space acquired
during the quarter and all activity in the quarter associated with
those assets, and recapture space. Total occupancy encompasses the
entire portfolio, exclusive of joint venture assets, at any specific
point in time. Same Store occupancy includes properties that were
owned at the beginning and the end of the reporting period, excluding
assets held for sale. See AFR 4Q '06 Supplemental for additional
details.
(4) The Company calculates AFFO by subtracting from or adding to FFO as
defined by NAREIT (i) non-real estate related depreciation and
amortization, (ii) non-reimbursable recurring capital expenditures
associated with the ongoing operation of real property after the
second year of operation, (iii) tenant improvement allowances and
leasing commissions associated with the re-leasing of previously
occupied non-bank tenanted spaces, which was paid during the period,
(iv) the effects of straight-lining of rents and fee income, and (v)
amortization of various deferred costs, (vi) deferred financing
costs, (vii) non cash stock compensation, and (viii) economic gains
to the extent they are equal to or less than current period
transaction costs and impairments related to non-core asset sales.
The SEC classifies AFFO as a non-GAAP measure.
