"We delivered another year of solid operational performance with healthy same-store NOI growth and recycled office assets to further de-risk the portfolio while implementing a differentiated leasing strategy branded Space+ to maximize value-creation," said Paul T. McDermott, President and Chief Executive Officer. "As a result, we have entered 2019 with a higher-quality, better-located portfolio that is well-suited to meet the fastest-growing segments of demand in the DC Metro region: flexible space in office and value-oriented apartments in multifamily. We are working hard to lease our well-positioned commercial availabilities and to capitalize on demand opportunities, including those emerging from Amazon-related growth, with the goal of creating long-term value for our shareholders."

Operating Results

The Company's overall portfolio NOI for the fourth quarter was $54.6 million, compared to $51.9 million in the same period one year ago and $53.9 million in the third quarter of 2018. The sequential increase in NOI was primarily due to lower property operating expenses across the portfolio as well as higher reimbursements and lease termination fees in office, partially offset by higher real estate taxes across the portfolio.

Overall portfolio ending occupancy(6) at year-end was 93.1%, compared to 91.8% at year-end 2017, driven by occupancy gains across the portfolio.

Same-store portfolio NOI increased by 3.1% for the full year and 4.5% for the fourth quarter on a year-over-year basis. Same-store portfolio ending occupancy at year-end was 93.0%, compared to 92.6% at year-end 2017.

Same-store portfolio by sector:

  • Office: 43% of 2018 Same-Store NOI - Office properties' same-store NOI increased by 4.5% and cash NOI increased by 5.5% for the full year. Same-store NOI increased by 5.4% and cash NOI increased by 7.0% for the fourth quarter compared to the same period a year ago. The year-over-year increase in full-year and fourth quarter office same-store NOI was primarily driven by new lease commencements, annual rent increases and higher recoveries, with these being partially offset by higher operating expenses. Same-store ending occupancy decreased by 30 basis points year-over-year and 40 basis points sequentially to 91.7% due to a few anticipated tenant move-outs in the portfolio. The overall office portfolio was 92.3% occupied and 93.6% leased at year-end.

  • Multifamily: 31% of 2018 Same-Store NOI - Multifamily properties' same-store NOI and cash NOI increased by 3.3% for the full year. Same-store NOI increased by 4.2% and cash NOI increased by 4.1% for the fourth quarter on a year-over-year basis. Same-store ending occupancy on a unit basis decreased by 20 basis points year-over-year and 50 basis points sequentially to 94.8% as the Company focused on optimizing the portfolio's rental income growth potential by focusing on rental rate growth. In the fourth quarter, the overall multifamily portfolio achieved 240 basis points of year-over-year rental growth, with Class B average monthly rent per unit growing by 260 basis points year-over-year. The overall multifamily portfolio was 94.8% occupied and 96.5% leased, on a unit basis, at year-end.

  • Retail: 26% of 2018 Same-Store NOI - Retail properties' same-store NOI increased by 0.7% and cash NOI increased by 1.2% for the full year. Same-store NOI increased by 3.4% and cash NOI increased by 3.5% year-over-year in the fourth quarter due to new lease commencements, higher percentage rent income and higher specialty leasing as well as lower operating expenses compared to the same period a year ago. Same-store ending occupancy increased by 70 basis points year-over-year to 91.9% but declined by 240 basis points sequentially due to seasonally lower levels of specialty leasing relative to third quarter 2018. The retail portfolio was 91.9% occupied and 92.6% leased at year-end.

(1) Funds From Operations ("FFO") - NAREIT FFO is a widely used measure of operating performance for real estate companies. We provide NAREIT FFO as a supplemental measure to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP. Although NAREIT FFO is a widely used measure of operating performance for REITs, NAREIT FFO does not represent net income calculated in accordance with GAAP. As such, it should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our operating performance. In addition, NAREIT FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, nor does it represent cash available to pay distributions and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities, determined in accordance with GAAP, as a measure of our liquidity. In its 2018 NAREIT White Paper Restatement, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. ("NAREIT") defines NAREIT FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding gains (or losses) associated with sales of properties, impairments of depreciable real estate, and real estate depreciation and amortization. We consider NAREIT FFO to be a standard supplemental measure for REITs because it facilitates an understanding of the operating performance of our properties without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which historically assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have instead historically risen or fallen with market conditions, we believe that NAREIT FFO more accurately provides investors an indication of our ability to incur and service debt, make capital expenditures and fund other needs. Our NAREIT FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs. These other REITs may not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently.

Core Funds From Operations ("Core FFO") is calculated by adjusting FFO for the following items (which we believe are not indicative of the performance of Washington REIT's operating portfolio and affect the comparative measurement of Washington REIT's operating performance over time): (1) gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, (2) expenses related to acquisition and structuring activities, (3) executive transition costs and severance expense related to corporate reorganization and related to executive retirements or resignations, (4) property impairments, casualty gains, and gains or losses on sale not already excluded from FFO, as appropriate, and (5) relocation expense. These items can vary greatly from period to period, depending upon the volume of our acquisition activity and debt retirements, among other factors. We believe that by excluding these items, Core FFO serves as a useful, supplementary measure of Washington REIT's ability to incur and service debt and to distribute dividends to its shareholders. Core FFO is a non-GAAP and non-standardized measure and may be calculated differently by other REITs.

(2) For purposes of evaluating comparative operating performance, we categorize our properties as "same-store", "non-same-store" or discontinued operations. Same-store properties include properties that were owned for the entirety of the years being compared, and exclude properties under redevelopment or development and properties acquired, sold or classified as held for sale during the years being compared. We define development properties as those for which we have planned or ongoing major construction activities on existing or acquired land pursuant to an authorized development plan. We consider a property's development activities to be complete when the property is ready for its intended use. The property is categorized as same-store when it has been ready for its intended use for the entirety of the years being compared. We define redevelopment properties as those for which have planned or ongoing significant development and construction activities on existing or acquired buildings pursuant to an authorized plan, which has an impact on current operating results, occupancy and the ability to lease space with the intended result of a higher economic return on the property. We categorize a redevelopment property as same-store when redevelopment activities have been complete for the majority of each year being compared.

(3) Net Operating Income ("NOI"), defined as real estate rental revenue less real estate expenses, is a non-GAAP measure. NOI is calculated as net income, less non-real estate revenue and the results of discontinued operations (including the gain or loss on sale, if any), plus interest expense, depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, acquisition costs, real estate impairment and gain or loss on extinguishment of debt. We also present NOI on a cash basis ("cash NOI") which is calculated as NOI less the impact of straight-lining of rent and amortization of market intangibles. We believe that NOI and cash NOI are useful performance measures because, when compared across periods, they reflect the impact on operations of trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs on an unleveraged basis, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income. NOI [and cash NOI] excludes certain components from net income in order to provide results more closely related to a property's results of operations. For example, interest expense is not necessarily linked to the operating performance of a real estate asset. In addition, depreciation and amortization, because of historical cost accounting and useful life estimates, may distort operating performance at the property level. As a result of the foregoing, we provide each of NOI and cash NOI as a supplement to net income, calculated in accordance with GAAP. Neither represents net income or income from continuing operations, in either case calculated in accordance with GAAP. As such, NOI and cash NOI should not be considered alternatives to these measures as an indication of our operating performance.

(4) Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA represents net debt as of period end divided by adjusted EBITDA for the period, as annualized (i.e. three months periods are multiplied by four) or on a trailing 12 month basis. We define net debt as the total outstanding debt reported as per our consolidated balance sheets less cash and cash equivalents at the end of the period. Adjusted EBITDA is earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization, gain/loss on sale of real estate, casualty gain/loss, real estate impairment, gain/loss on extinguishment of debt, severance expense, relocation expense, acquisition and structuring expense and gain from non-disposal activities. We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be an appropriate performance measure because it permits investors to view income from operations without the effect of depreciation, and the cost of debt or non-operating gains and losses. Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA are a non-GAAP measures.

(5) Funds Available for Distribution ("FAD") is a non-GAAP measure. It is calculated by subtracting from FFO (1) recurring expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing costs, that are capitalized and amortized and are necessary to maintain our properties and revenue stream (excluding items contemplated prior to acquisition or associated with development / redevelopment of a property) and (2) straight line rents, then adding (3) non-real estate depreciation and amortization, (4) non-cash fair value interest expense and (5) amortization of restricted share compensation, then adding or subtracting the (6) amortization of lease intangibles, (7) real estate impairment and (8) non-cash gain/loss on extinguishment of debt, as appropriate. FAD is included herein, because we consider it to be a performance measure of a REIT's ability to incur and service debt and to distribute dividends to its shareholders. FAD is a non-GAAP and non-standardized measure, and may be calculated differently by other REITs.

Core Funds Available for Distribution ("Core FAD") is calculated by adjusting FAD for the following items (which we believe are not indicative of the performance of Washington REIT's operating portfolio and affect the comparative measurement of Washington REIT's operating performance over time): (1) gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, (2) costs related to the acquisition of properties, (3) non-share-based severance expense related to corporate reorganization and related to executive retirements or resignations, (4) property impairments, casualty gains and losses, and gains or losses on sale not already excluded from FAD, as appropriate, and (5) relocation expense. These items can vary greatly from period to period, depending upon the volume of our acquisition activity and debt retirements, among other factors. We believe that by excluding these items, Core FAD serves as a useful, supplementary performance measure of Washington REIT's ability to incur and service debt, and distribute dividends to its shareholders. Core FAD is a non-GAAP and non-standardized measure, and may be calculated differently by other REITs.

The Core FAD payout ratio is calculated by dividing dividends declared per share by Core FAD per diluted share for a given reporting period.

(6) Ending Occupancy is calculated as occupied square footage as a percentage of total square footage as of the last day of that period.
