CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

expense.

Real Estate Investment Trusts, for the quarter ended December 31, 2018,
were $25.6 million, or $0.21 per share. This compares to FFO for the

Our calculations of FFO and Normalized FFO attributable to EQC
common shareholders and unitholders
per share and unit - basic for the three months and year ended
December 31, 2018, include 45 and 44 LTIP/Operating Partnership
Units, respectively, that are excluded from the calculation of
basic earnings per common share attributable to EQC common
shareholders (only). Our calculations of FFO and
Normalized FFO attributable to EQC common shareholders and
unitholders per share and unit - basic for the three
months and year ended December 31, 2017, include 43 and 38
LTIP/Operating Partnership Units, respectively, that are excluded
from the calculation of basic earnings per common share
attributable to EQC common shareholders
(only).
|
| |
|
|
We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by NAREIT.
NAREIT defines FFO as net income (loss), calculated in accordance
with GAAP, excluding real estate depreciation and amortization,
gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable property, impairment of
depreciable real estate, and our portion of these items related to
equity investees and noncontrolling interests. Our calculation of
Normalized FFO differs from NAREIT’s definition of FFO because we
exclude certain items that we view as nonrecurring or impacting
comparability from period to period. FFO and Normalized FFO are
supplemental non-GAAP financial measures. We consider FFO and
Normalized FFO to be appropriate measures of operating performance
for a REIT, along with net income (loss), net income (loss)
attributable to EQC common shareholders, operating income (loss) and
cash flow from operating activities.
|
|
|
|
We believe that FFO and Normalized FFO provide useful information to
investors because by excluding the effects of certain historical
amounts, such as depreciation expense, FFO and Normalized FFO may
facilitate a comparison of our operating performance between periods
and with other REITs. FFO and Normalized FFO do not represent cash
generated by operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should
not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss), net income
(loss) attributable to EQC common shareholders, operating income
(loss) or cash flow from operating activities, determined in
accordance with GAAP, or as indicators of our financial performance
or liquidity, nor are these measures necessarily indicative of
sufficient cash flow to fund all of our needs. These measures should
be considered in conjunction with net income (loss), net income
(loss) attributable to EQC common shareholders, operating income
(loss) and cash flow from operating activities as presented in our
condensed consolidated statements of operations, condensed
consolidated statements of comprehensive income and condensed
consolidated statements of cash flows. Other REITs and real estate
companies may calculate FFO and Normalized FFO differently than we
do.

Cash Basis NOI from non-same properties for all periods presented

NOI is income from our real estate including lease termination fees
received from tenants less our property operating expenses. NOI
excludes amortization of capitalized tenant improvement costs and
leasing commissions and corporate level expenses. Cash Basis NOI is
NOI excluding the effects of straight line rent adjustments, lease
value amortization, and lease termination fees. The quarter-to-date
same property versions of these measures include the results of
properties continuously owned from October 1, 2017 through December
31, 2018. The year-to-date same property versions of these measures
include the results of properties continuously owned from January 1,
2017 through December 31, 2018. Land parcels and properties
classified as held for sale within our condensed consolidated
balance sheets are excluded from the same property versions of these
measures.
|
|
|
|
We consider these supplemental non-GAAP financial measures to be
appropriate supplemental measures to net income (loss) because they
help to understand the operations of our properties. We use these
measures internally to evaluate property level performance, and we
believe that they provide useful information to investors regarding
our results of operations because they reflect only those income and
expense items that are incurred at the property level and may
facilitate comparisons of our operating performance between periods
and with other REITs. Cash Basis NOI is among the factors considered
with respect to acquisition, disposition and financing decisions.
These measures do not represent cash generated by operating
activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as
an alternative to net income (loss), net income (loss) attributable
to Equity Commonwealth common shareholders, operating income (loss)
or cash flow from operating activities, determined in accordance
with GAAP, or as indicators of our financial performance or
liquidity, nor are these measures necessarily indicative of
sufficient cash flow to fund all of our needs. These measures should
be considered in conjunction with net income (loss), net income
(loss) attributable to EQC common shareholders, operating income
(loss) and cash flow from operating activities as presented in our
condensed consolidated statements of operations, condensed
consolidated statements of comprehensive income and condensed
consolidated statements of cash flows. Other REITs and real estate
companies may calculate these measures differently than we do.
