Urban Edge Properties Reports Second Quarter 2023 Results

-- Raises Outlook for Full-Year FFO as Adjusted --

Urban Edge Properties (NYSE: UE) (the "Company") today announced its results for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 and updated its outlook for full-year 2023.

“We are pleased to report strong second quarter results that reflect continued progress towards our targeted FFO of $1.35 per share in 2025,” said Jeff Olson, Chairman and CEO. "During the quarter, leases representing $6 million of expected annual gross rent were commenced. Additionally, we have a signed pipeline of executed leases that we expect will generate an additional $28 million in annual gross rent, which accounts for 11% of our annualized net operating income. Overall, we remain excited about the significant opportunities embedded in our portfolio to continue to drive long-term earnings growth."

FFO for the six months ended June 30, 2023, benefited from rent commencements on new leases, higher net recovery income, and lower operating and general and administrative expenses, offset by higher interest and debt expense. The net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was driven by a non-cash impairment charge of $34.1 million in the first quarter of 2023, or $0.29 per diluted share, reducing the carrying value of Kingswood Center, an office and retail property located in Brooklyn, NY.

The increases in our same-property NOI metrics for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were primarily driven by rent commencements on new leases, higher net recovery income and lower operating expenses.

Operating Results(1)

  • Reported same-property portfolio leased occupancy of 95.5%, an increase of 170 basis points compared to June 30, 2022 and an increase of 10 basis points compared to March 31, 2023.
  • Reported consolidated portfolio leased occupancy, excluding Sunrise Mall, of 94.7%, an increase of 280 basis points compared to June 30, 2022 and an increase of 10 basis points compared to March 31, 2023.
  • Executed 35 new leases, renewals and options totaling 362,000 sf during the quarter. Same-space leases totaled 355,000 sf and generated an average rent spread of 6.8% on a cash basis.
  • Issued our 2022 Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG") report, highlighting progress on our ESG initiatives including the completion of our first materiality assessment.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity(1)(4)

Balance sheet highlights as of June 30, 2023 include:

  • $93.4 million of cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash, and no amounts drawn under our $800 million revolving credit agreement.
  • Mortgages payable of $1.7 billion, with a weighted average term to maturity of 5 years. Approximately 92% of our outstanding debt is fixed rate.
  • Total market capitalization of approximately $3.6 billion, comprised of 122.7 million fully-diluted common shares valued at $1.9 billion and $1.7 billion of debt.
  • Net debt to total market capitalization of 45%.

Financing Activity

On April 6, 2023, the Company successfully refinanced the mortgage secured by its property, Bergen Town Center, with a 7-year fixed rate, $290 million loan. The proceeds from the loan were used to pay down the Company's previous mortgage on the property which had an outstanding balance of $300 million.

On June 7, 2023, the Company obtained a 10-year, $16 million non-recourse mortgage secured by its property Newington Commons, located in Newington, CT. The loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 6.0%.

On June 23, 2023, the Company refinanced the mortgage secured by its property, Shops at Bruckner, with a new 6-year, $38 million loan bearing interest at a fixed rate of 6.0%. The proceeds from the new loan were used to pay down the Company's previous mortgage on the property which had an outstanding balance of approximately $8.7 million. The remaining funds were used to pay off the $29 million variable rate mortgage loan secured by the Plaza at Cherry Hill which had a maturity date of June 15, 2025 and an interest rate of 8.75% on the payoff date of June 23, 2023.

Leasing, Development and Redevelopment

During the quarter, the Company executed 28,000 sf of new leases, including leases with Puma at Las Catalinas and Bluestone Lane at Bergen Town Center. Subsequent to the quarter, the Company executed an 18,000 sf lease with a medical user at Manalapan Commons. Including this lease, the average rent spread for new leases during the quarter would have been 11% on a cash basis and 15% for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

The Company commenced one redevelopment project with an estimated cost of $1.5 million during the quarter and now has $196.5 million of active redevelopment projects under way, with estimated remaining costs to complete of $128.2 million. The active redevelopment projects are expected to generate an approximate 12% unleveraged yield.

During the quarter, the Company stabilized three redevelopment projects with aggregate estimated costs of $17.5 million. Nemours Children's Health at Broomall and Walgreens at the Outlets at Montehiedra both rent commenced in April 2023, and the relocation of Total Wine at the Plaza at Cherry Hill was completed in June 2023.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company has signed leases that have not yet rent commenced that are expected to generate an additional $27.9 million of future annual gross rent, representing approximately 11% of current annualized NOI. Approximately $2.7 million of this amount is expected to be recognized in the remainder of 2023.

The Company is providing a projection of anticipated net income solely to satisfy the disclosure requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company's projections are based on management’s current beliefs and assumptions about the Company's business, and the industry and the markets in which it operates; there are known and unknown risks and uncertainties associated with these projections. There can be no assurance that our actual results will not differ from the guidance set forth above. The Company assumes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, including its 2023 earnings guidance, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Please refer to the “Forward-Looking Statements” disclosures on page 7 of this document and “Risk Factors” disclosed in the Company's annual and quarterly reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for more information.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses certain non-GAAP performance measures, in addition to the primary GAAP presentations, as we believe these measures improve the understanding of the Company's operational results. We continually evaluate the usefulness, relevance, limitations, and calculation of our reported non-GAAP performance measures to determine how best to provide relevant information to the investing public, and thus such reported measures are subject to change. The Company's non-GAAP performance measures have limitations as they do not include all items of income and expense that affect operations, and accordingly, should always be considered as supplemental financial results. Additionally, the Company's computation of non-GAAP metrics may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP metrics reported by other REITs or real estate companies that define these metrics differently and, as a result, it is important to understand the manner in which the Company defines and calculates each of its non-GAAP metrics. The following non-GAAP measures are commonly used by the Company and investing public to understand and evaluate our operating results and performance:

  • FFO: The Company believes FFO is a useful, supplemental measure of its operating performance that is a recognized metric used extensively by the real estate industry and, in particular real estate investment trusts ("REITs"). FFO, as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("Nareit") and the Company, is net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable real estate and land when connected to the main business of a REIT, impairments on depreciable real estate or land related to a REIT's main business, earnings from consolidated partially owned entities and rental property depreciation and amortization expense. The Company believes that financial analysts, investors and shareholders are better served by the presentation of comparable period operating results generated from FFO primarily because it excludes the assumption that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably. FFO does not represent cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance, and is not indicative of cash flow as a measure of liquidity or our ability to make cash distributions.
  • FFO as Adjusted: The Company provides disclosure of FFO as Adjusted because it believes it is a useful supplemental measure of its core operating performance that facilitates comparability of historical financial periods. FFO as Adjusted is calculated by making certain adjustments to FFO to account for items the Company does not believe are representative of ongoing core operating results, including non-comparable revenues and expenses. The Company's method of calculating FFO as Adjusted may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.
  • NOI: The Company uses NOI internally to make investment and capital allocation decisions and to compare the unlevered performance of our properties to our peers. The Company believes NOI is useful to investors as a performance measure because, when compared across periods, NOI reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs and acquisition and disposition activity on an unleveraged basis, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income. The Company calculates NOI using net income as defined by GAAP reflecting only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level, adjusted for non-cash rental income and expense, impairments on depreciable real estate or land, and income or expenses that we do not believe are representative of ongoing operating results, if any. In addition, the Company uses NOI margin, calculated as NOI divided by total property revenue, which the Company believes is useful to investors for similar reasons.
  • Same-property NOI: The Company provides disclosure of NOI on a same-property basis, which includes the results of properties that were owned and operated for the entirety of the reporting periods being compared, which total 69 and 68 properties for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Information provided on a same-property basis excludes properties under development, redevelopment or that involve anchor repositioning where a substantial portion of the gross leasable area ("GLA") is taken out of service and also excludes properties acquired, sold, or that are in the foreclosure process during the periods being compared. As such, same-property NOI assists in eliminating disparities in net income due to the development, redevelopment, acquisition, disposition, or foreclosure of properties during the periods presented, and thus provides a more consistent performance measure for the comparison of the operating performance of the Company's properties. While there is judgment surrounding changes in designations, a property is removed from the same-property pool when it is designated as a redevelopment property because it is undergoing significant renovation or retenanting pursuant to a formal plan that is expected to have a significant impact on its operating income. A development or redevelopment property is moved back to the same-property pool once a substantial portion of the NOI growth expected from the development or redevelopment is reflected in both the current and comparable prior year period, generally one year after at least 80% of the expected NOI from the project is realized on a cash basis. Acquisitions are moved into the same-property pool once we have owned the property for the entirety of the comparable periods and the property is not under significant development or redevelopment. The Company has also provided disclosure of NOI on a same-property basis adjusted to include redevelopment properties. Same-property NOI may include other adjustments as detailed in the Reconciliation of Net Income to NOI and same-property NOI included in the tables accompanying this press release. We also present this metric excluding the collection of amounts previously deemed uncollectible.
  • EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre: EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre are supplemental, non-GAAP measures utilized by us in various financial ratios. The White Paper on EBITDAre, approved by Nareit's Board of Governors in September 2017, defines EBITDAre as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), adjusted for interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation and amortization, losses and gains on the disposition of depreciated property, impairment write-downs of depreciated property and investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, and adjustments to reflect the entity's share of EBITDAre of unconsolidated joint ventures. EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre are presented to assist investors in the evaluation of REITs, as a measure of the Company's operational performance as they exclude various items that do not relate to or are not indicative of our operating performance and because they approximate key performance measures in our debt covenants. Accordingly, the Company believes that the use of EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre, as opposed to income before income taxes, in various ratios provides meaningful performance measures related to the Company's ability to meet various coverage tests for the stated periods. Adjusted EBITDAre may include other adjustments not indicative of operating results as detailed in the Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre included in the tables accompanying this press release. The Company also presents the ratio of net debt to annualized Adjusted EBITDAre as of June 30, 2023, and net debt to total market capitalization, which it believes is useful to investors as a supplemental measure in evaluating the Company's balance sheet leverage. The presentation of EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre is consistent with EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as presented in prior periods.

The Company believes net income is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to the non-GAAP performance measures outlined above. Reconciliations of these measures to net income have been provided in the tables accompanying this press release.

Operating Metrics

The Company presents certain operating metrics related to our properties, including occupancy, leasing activity and rental rates. Operating metrics are used by the Company and are useful to investors in facilitating an understanding of the operational performance for our properties.

Occupancy metrics represent the percentage of occupied gross leasable area based on executed leases (including properties in development and redevelopment) and include leases signed, but for which rent has not yet commenced. Same-property portfolio leased occupancy includes properties that have been owned and operated for the entirety of the reporting periods being compared, which total 69 and 68 properties for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Occupancy metrics presented for the Company's same-property portfolio exclude properties under development, redevelopment or that involve anchor repositioning where a substantial portion of the gross leasable area is taken out of service and also excludes properties acquired within the past 12 months or properties sold, and properties that are in the foreclosure process during the periods being compared.

Executed new leases, renewals and exercised options are presented on a same-space basis. Same-space leases represent those leases signed on spaces for which there was a previous lease.

The Company occasionally provides disclosures by tenant categories which include anchors, shops and industrial/self-storage. Anchors and shops are further broken down by local, regional and national tenants. We define anchor tenants as those who have a leased area of >10,000 sf. Local tenants are defined as those with less than five locations. Regional tenants are those with five or more locations in a single region. National tenants are defined as those with five or more locations and operate in two or more regions.

(1)

Weighted average diluted shares used to calculate FFO per share and FFO as Adjusted per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, are higher than the GAAP weighted average diluted shares as a result of the dilutive impact of LTIP and OP units which may be redeemed for our common shares.

(2)

The gain on sale of real estate for the six months ended June 30, 2023 relates to the release of escrow funds from a property disposed of in a prior period.

(3)

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized an impairment charge reducing the carrying value of Kingswood Center, an office and retail property located in Brooklyn, NY.

(4)

In April 2023, the Company notified the lender of its mortgage secured by Kingswood Center that the cash flows generated by the property are insufficient to cover the debt service and that the Company is unwilling to fund future shortfalls. As such, the mortgage loan is currently in the foreclosure process and the $0.8 million represents default interest incurred as a result. The Company determined this does not represent a normal, recurring, cash operating expense indicative of our ongoing business, and adjusting for the default interest enhances the comparability of current results to prior periods which is useful for investors to analyze the Company's financial performance.

(5)

Includes the acceleration and write-off of lease intangibles related to tenant bankruptcies, and the write-offs and reinstatements of receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents for tenants moved to and from the cash basis of accounting.

Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to NOI and Same-Property NOI

The following table reflects the reconciliation of net income (loss) to NOI, same-property NOI and same-property NOI including properties in redevelopment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Net income (loss) is considered the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Refer to "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" on page 5 for a description of NOI and same-property NOI.
