MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY
"During the second quarter, we completed two acquisitions for our owned real estate portfolio totaling $51.4 million, bringing total investment volume for the first half of 2015 to $445.6 million," said Trevor Bond, Chief Executive Officer of W. P. Carey. "All of our first half investments were in Europe — specifically, in the UK, the Netherlands, Austria and Sweden — reflecting the continued favorable market conditions there for net lease deals, as well as our ability to successfully source and close transactions throughout the region. We also completed acquisitions totaling $1.1 billion on behalf of our Managed REITs, primarily comprised of operating properties for our lodging REITs.
"Elsewhere, we continue to make progress with our strategy of diversifying and expanding the product offerings within our investment management business. In May, our second non-traded REIT focused on lodging, Carey Watermark Investors 2 Incorporated, broke escrow for its initial public offering of up to $1.4 billion. And I'm pleased to announce that since quarter end, we have launched our first non-traded BDC, Carey Credit Income Fund."
FINANCIAL RESULTS
Revenues
- Total Company: Revenues excluding reimbursable costs (net revenues) for the 2015 second quarter totaled $224.3 million, up 9.0% from $205.7 million for the 2014 second quarter, due primarily to additional lease revenues from properties acquired during and subsequent to the 2014 second quarter, as well as higher net revenues from the Managed Programs.
- Real Estate Ownership: Real estate revenues excluding reimbursable tenant costs (net revenues from real estate ownership) for the 2015 second quarter were $174.1 million, up 1.5% from $171.5 million for the 2014 second quarter, due primarily to additional lease revenues from properties acquired during and subsequent to the 2014 second quarter.
- Investment Management: Revenues from the Managed Programs excluding reimbursable costs (net revenues from the Managed Programs) for the 2015 second quarter were $50.2 million, up 46.8% from $34.2 million for the 2014 second quarter, due primarily to higher structuring revenue resulting from increased acquisition activity on behalf of the Managed REITs.
Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO)
- AFFO for the 2015 second quarter was $1.31 per diluted share, up 8.3% compared to $1.21 per diluted share for the 2014 second quarter, due primarily to (i) higher assets under management within our investment management business, resulting in increases to both asset management fees and distributions of available cash from the Company's interests in the operating partnerships of the Managed REITs; (ii) higher structuring revenue due to increased acquisition activity on behalf of the Managed REITs; and (iii) the positive net impact of properties acquired for our owned real estate portfolio since the beginning of the 2014 second quarter. These were partly offset by a stronger U.S. dollar, primarily relative to the euro, net of realized hedging gains.
- Note: Further information concerning AFFO, a non-GAAP supplemental performance metric, is presented in the accompanying tables and related notes.
Dividend
- As previously announced, on June 18, 2015 the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.954 per share, equivalent to an annualized dividend rate of $3.82 per share. Paid on July 15, 2015 to stockholders of record as of June 30, 2015, it represented the Company's 57th consecutive quarterly dividend increase.
AFFO GUIDANCE
- For the 2015 full year, the Company reaffirms that it expects to report AFFO of between $4.76 and $5.02 per diluted share, based on assumed total acquisition volume of between approximately $2.4 billion and $3.1 billion, comprised of approximately $400 million to $600 million for the Company's owned real estate portfolio and approximately $2.0 billion to $2.5 billion on behalf of the Managed REITs. It also assumes dispositions from the Company's owned real estate portfolio of between approximately $100 million and $200 million.
- Note: The Company expects to update its 2015 AFFO guidance in connection with the release of subsequent quarterly earnings.
BALANCE SHEET AND CAPITALIZATION
"At-The-Market" Offering Program
- As previously announced, on June 3, 2015 the Company filed a prospectus supplement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under which it may sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $400 million, through an "at-the-market" (ATM) offering program.

Non-GAAP Financial Disclosure
Funds from Operations, or FFO, is a non-GAAP measure defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT. NAREIT defines FFO as net income or loss (as computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding: depreciation and amortization expense from real estate assets, impairment charges on real estate, gains or losses from sales of depreciated real estate assets, and extraordinary items; however, FFO related to assets held for sale, sold, or otherwise transferred and included in the results of discontinued operations are included. These adjustments also incorporate the pro rata share of unconsolidated subsidiaries. FFO is used by management, investors, and analysts to facilitate meaningful comparisons of operating performance between periods and among our peers. Although NAREIT has published this definition of FFO, companies often modify this definition as they seek to provide financial measures that meaningfully reflect their distinctive operations.
We modify the NAREIT computation of FFO to include other adjustments to GAAP net income to adjust for certain non-cash charges such as amortization of real estate-related intangibles, deferred income tax benefits and expenses, straight-line rents, stock compensation, gains or losses from extinguishment of debt and deconsolidation of subsidiaries, and unrealized foreign currency exchange gains and losses. Our assessment of our operations is focused on long-term sustainability and not on such non-cash items, which may cause short-term fluctuations in net income but have no impact on cash flows. Additionally, we exclude acquisition expenses and non-core expenses such as merger expenses. Merger expenses are related to the CPA®:16 Merger. We also exclude realized gains or losses on foreign exchange which are not considered fundamental attributes of our business plan and do not affect our overall long-term operating performance. We refer to our modified definition of FFO as AFFO. We exclude these items from GAAP net income as they are not the primary drivers in our decision making process and excluding those items provides investors a view of our portfolio performance over time and make it more comparable to other REITs not currently engaged in acquisitions, mergers, and restructuring, which are not part of our normal business operations. We use AFFO as one measure of our operating performance when we formulate corporate goals, evaluate the effectiveness of our strategies, and determine executive compensation.
We believe that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for investors to consider because it will help them to better assess the sustainability of our operating performance without the potentially distorting impact of these short-term fluctuations. However, there are limits on the usefulness of AFFO to investors. For example, impairment charges and unrealized foreign currency losses that we exclude may become actual realized losses upon the ultimate disposition of the properties in the form of lower cash proceeds or other considerations. We use our FFO and AFFO measures as supplemental financial measures of operating performance. We do not use our FFO and AFFO measures as, nor should they be considered to be, alternatives to net earnings computed under GAAP or as alternatives to cash from operating activities computed under GAAP or as indicators of our ability to fund our cash needs.
