Financial Results

Net income available to common shareholders for the second quarter of 2011 was $23.9 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, compared to $12.8 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2010. The change in year-over-year net income available to common shareholders is primarily related to increases of approximately:

• $11 million in NOI relating to an improvement in property operations and acquisition activity since the comparable period of 2010;
• $12 million from the decrease in non-cash impairments, net of tax; and
• $2 million increase in gains on sale of operating properties not included in FFO;

Offset by approximately:

• $9 million decrease in non-recurring income (which excludes $3.4 million from the remeasurement of a derivative instrument associated with the Valad convertible notes and included in the calculation of FFO);
• $2 million decrease in recurring equity in income of other real estate joint ventures resulting primarily from the transfer or conversion of several preferred equity investments since the comparable period of 2010; and
• $3 million increase in preferred stock dividends resulting from the $175 million cumulative redeemable preferred stock offering in August 2010.

Year-to-date, net income available to common shareholders was $38.0 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared to $51.8 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, through June 30, 2010.

Funds from operations (FFO), a widely accepted supplemental measure of REIT performance, were $118.0 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2011 compared to $105.6 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, in the same period a year ago. Recurring FFO, which excludes the effects of non-cash impairments and non-recurring income, were $121.4 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, in the second quarter 2011 compared to $115.7 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, in the same quarter of the prior year.

For the six months ended June 30, 2011, FFO were $233.0 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, compared to $231.6 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, for the same period last year. Recurring FFO for the six months ended June 30, 2011 were $242.6 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, compared to $231.3 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, for the same period in 2010. A reconciliation of net income to FFO is provided in the tables accompanying this press release.

Non-Recurring FFO and Non-Cash Impairments

During the second quarter of 2011, Kimco recognized non-recurring FFO of $4.6 million and non-cash impairments of $8.1 million, both net of tax.

Non-recurring FFO for the second quarter of 2011 includes $3.6 million of income related to structured investments and non-retail assets offset by $2.4 million of net non-recurring expenses primarily associated with shopping center dispositions (which are included as a component of discontinued operations). In addition, the company recognized $3.4 million from the sale of the Valad convertible notes included in the calculation of FFO only.

Second quarter 2011 non-cash impairments were transaction-oriented resulting from the completed or pending disposition of the company’s interest in 13 properties; nine in the consolidated portfolio and four joint venture properties, totaling approximately $5.9 million and $2.2 million, respectively.

For the second quarter in 2010, the company recognized non-recurring FFO of $9.9 million and non-cash impairments of $19.9 million, both net of tax.

Year-to-date, non-recurring FFO was $5.4 million and non-cash impairments were $15.0 million. For the comparable period in 2010, non-recurring FFO was $27.7 million and non-cash impairments were $27.4 million.

Combined Shopping Center Portfolio (includes U.S., Canada and Latin America)

• Gross occupancy was 93.1 percent, an increase of 30 basis points both sequentially and over second quarter 2010;

• Combined same-property net operating income (NOI) increased 3.1 percent over the second quarter 2010; and
• Total leases executed in the portfolio: 594 new leases, renewals and options totaling 1.9 million square feet.

Pro-rata occupancy in the combined portfolio was negatively impacted by 10 basis points from the inclusion of two former Mexican development properties (approximately 76.6 percent occupied) in the second quarter 2011.

U.S. Shopping Center Portfolio

• Gross occupancy was 92.9 percent, an increase of 40 basis points sequentially and 50 basis points over the second quarter of 2010;
• Pro-rata occupancy was 92.6 percent, an increase of 40 basis points sequentially and 30 basis points over the second quarter of 2010;

Second quarter 2011 occupancy in the U.S. shopping center portfolio was negatively impacted by 20 basis points from the closure of six Borders and 11 Blockbuster locations. Excluding the effects of the Borders and Blockbuster closings, occupancy in the U.S. portfolio on a gross and pro-rata basis would be 93.1 percent and 92.8 percent, respectively.

The increase in U.S. same-property NOI of 2.6 percent over the comparable period in 2010 represents the fifth consecutive quarter of positive same-property NOI and the highest increase since the first quarter of 2008.

Second quarter leasing execution for the U.S. shopping center portfolio includes 80 same space new leases totaling 212,000 pro-rata square feet and 212 lease renewals and options for 927,000 pro-rata square feet. In addition, the company signed more than 130 new leases totaling 617,000 square feet for spaces vacant for more than one year. The pro-rata spread on new leases in the U.S. portfolio declined 1.0 percent. On a gross-basis (without regard to ownership percentage), the spreads on new leases in the U.S. portfolio increased 2.7 percent.

During the second quarter 2011, the company acquired for its wholly-owned portfolio two shopping centers, comprising 350,000 square feet, for a total purchase price of approximately $32.0 million, including $9.3 million of mortgage debt.

Kimco’s shopping center portfolio includes 939 operating properties comprising 813 assets in the United States and Puerto Rico, 62 in Canada, 51 in Mexico and 13 in South America. The operating portfolio includes 15 former development properties in Latin America that are approximately 74.3 percent leased and are not currently included in occupancy. These properties will be included in occupancy the earlier of (i) reaching 90 percent leased or (ii) two years following the project’s inclusion in operating real estate. Additionally, the company has four development properties and three completed projects pending stabilization.

Non-Strategic U.S. Shopping Center Portfolio

During the quarter, Kimco disposed of, in separate transactions, 11 unencumbered non-strategic shopping centers (nine wholly-owned and two unconsolidated joint ventures) comprising 1.0 million square feet for a total of $48.5 million. Kimco’s share of proceeds from these sales was $44.6 million.

For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the company has completed the sale of 13 non-strategic shopping centers (10 wholly-owned and three unconsolidated joint ventures) for a total of $62.8 million, including $11.0 million of mortgage debt. Kimco’s share of proceeds from these sales was $46.5 million.

As of June 30, 2011, the company has 139 non-strategic U.S. shopping centers, comprising 9 million square feet and 83.2 percent pro-rata occupancy. Currently, Kimco has 10 non-strategic properties under contract negotiations for approximately $51.8 million.

Investment Management and Other Joint Venture Programs

In the second quarter, an existing institutional joint venture between Kimco and BIG Shopping Centers acquired a grocery-anchored shopping center in Selden (Long Island), N.Y. for a purchase price of $43.5 million, including $34.0 million of mortgage debt. Kimco holds a 50.1% interest in this joint venture.

Also during the quarter, the company and its preferred equity partner converted their interest in six retail properties into a traditional pari-passu joint venture structure in which Kimco holds a 70% interest.

At quarter end, the company had a total of 285 properties in its investment management program with 24 institutional partners and 161 properties in other joint ventures.

Structured Investments and Non-Retail Assets

During the quarter, the company’s structured investments and other non-retail assets contributed earnings of $25.3 million of which $14.9 million was recurring; $5.5 million from preferred equity investments, $5.4 million from non-retail joint ventures, including Westmont Hospitality, with the remainder primarily from interest and dividends.

Transaction earnings for the second quarter 2011 were $3.6 million, net of tax ($7.0 million before tax) which excludes $3.4 million from the sale of the Valad convertible notes (included in the calculation of FFO only). The remaining transaction earnings include $1.0 million from the repayment of the Whiterock REIT convertible debentures with remainder primarily attributable to a gain from a private equity distribution that was in excess of the company’s investment.

As of June 30, 2011, non-retail assets total approximately $612 million which represents five percent of gross assets. In addition, the company reduced the retail preferred equity portfolio to $136 million compared to $156 million last quarter and $286 million at June 30, 2010.

Dividend and Capital Structure

As separately announced, Kimco’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.18 per common share, payable on October 17, 2011 to shareholders of record on October 5, 2011, representing an ex-dividend date of October 3, 2011.

At the end of the quarter, the company’s consolidated net debt to recurring EBITDA improved to 6.0x compared to 6.3x at year end 2010 and 6.6x for the second quarter 2010. In addition, the company maintains access to approximately $1.7 billion of immediate liquidity under its two credit facilities ($1.5 billion U.S. revolving credit facility and its CAD $250 million Canadian revolving credit facility).

2011 Guidance

The company remains committed to its core business objectives:

• Increasing shareholder value through the ownership, management and selective acquisition of neighborhood and community shopping centers;
• Continued lease-up of its Latin America portfolio;
• Actively engaging in the disposition of its non-retail and non-strategic retail assets; and
• Strengthening its balance sheet with a long-term focus on reducing leverage levels and employing a conservative capital mix.

The company reaffirms its 2011 full year recurring FFO guidance range, which does not include any estimate for non-recurring income or impairments, of $1.17 - $1.21 per diluted share.

Estimated portfolio metrics for the shopping center portfolio are as follows:

• Combined portfolio occupancy: an increase of 50 basis points; and
• Combined same-property NOI: positive one to three percent.
