Indianapolis, Ind., February 8, 2012 – Kite Realty Group Trust (NYSE: KRG) (the “Company”) today announced results for its fourth quarter ended December 31, 2011.  Financial statements and exhibits attached to this release include results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.

Financial and Operating Results

For the three months ended December 31, 2011, funds from operations (“FFO”), a widely accepted supplemental measure of REIT performance established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, was $8.6 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, for the Kite Portfolio compared to $7.8 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, for the same period in the prior year.  The Company’s allocable share of FFO was $7.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $7.0 million for the same period in 2010.
 
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2011, FFO was $31.8 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, for the Kite Portfolio compared to $30.3 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, for the same period in the prior year.  The Company’s allocable share of FFO was $28.3 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011 compared to $26.9 million for the same period in 2010.
 
Given the nature of the Company’s business as a real estate owner and operator, the Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors when measuring operating performance because it excludes various items included in net income or loss that do not relate to or are not indicative of operating performance, such as gains or losses from sales and impairments of operating properties, and depreciation and amortization, which can make periodic and peer analyses of operating performance more difficult. The Company believes presenting FFO in this manner allows investors and other interested parties to form a more meaningful assessment of the Company’s operating results.  A reconciliation of net income to FFO is included in the attached table.

Net income attributable to common shareholders was $3.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2011 compared to a net loss in the prior year of $1.2 million.  This change is primarily attributable to the Company’s share of a $4.3 million gain on the sale in the current quarter of a property owned in a joint venture.  The Company’s total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2011 was $26.7 million, an increase from $25.9 million for the same period in 2010.  This increase is due to an improvement in revenue from recurring property operations of $3.1 million, or 13.8%, as a result of improved occupancy levels and development tenants opening for business.  Partially offsetting this increase was a planned decline in construction volume of $1.6 million and lower gains on land sales of $0.9 million.

Net loss attributable to common shareholders was $0.8 million for 2011 compared to a net loss in the prior year of $8.6 million.  This change is primarily attributable to a decrease of $3.7 million in depreciation and amortization expense due to accelerated depreciation taken in the prior year on certain redevelopment properties along with the Company’s share of the gain on the 2011 sale of a joint venture property of $4.3 million.  The Company’s total revenue for 2011 was $101.9 million, an increase from $101.4 million for 2010.  Revenue from recurring property operations increased $7.8 million, or 8.7%, for 2011 compared to 2010.  Offsetting this increase was a planned decline in construction volume of $6.5 million and lower gains on land sales of $2.4 million.

John A. Kite, Kite Realty Group’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said "In 2011, our strong operating platform and well located real estate performed at a very high level which produced approximately 14% growth in revenue from property operations in the fourth quarter.  Our asset management, leasing, and development teams produced strong same property NOI results and delivered highly leased, quality assets.  I am pleased with our perseverance and progress on our development pipeline and look forward to continuing to utilize our value-added platform."

In addition, the Company owns four operating commercial properties totaling 580,800 square feet.  As of December 31, 2011, the owned net rentable area of the commercial operating portfolio was 93.3% leased.  The combined leased percentage for the retail and commercial operating portfolios was 93.3% as of December 31, 2011.

On a same property basis, the leased percentage of 52 same store operating properties increased 0.4% to 93.0% at December 31, 2011 from 92.6% at December 31, 2010.  Same property net operating income for these properties increased 5.7% in the fourth quarter of 2011 compared to the same period in the prior year.  Same property net operating income increased 3.7% for the full year 2011 compared to 2010.

Distributions

On December 22, 2011, the Board of Trustees declared a quarterly common share cash distribution of $0.06 per common share for the quarter ended December 31, 2011 payable to shareholders of record as of January 6, 2012.  This distribution was paid on January 13, 2012.  The Board of Trustees anticipates declaring a quarterly cash distribution for the quarter ending March 31, 2012 later in the first quarter.

On February 8, 2012, the Board of Trustees declared a quarterly preferred share cash distribution of $0.515625 per preferred share covering the distribution period from December 2, 2011 to March 1, 2012 payable to shareholders of record as of February 21, 2012.  This distribution will be paid on March 1, 2012.

2012 Earnings Guidance

 The Company currently expects FFO for the year ended December 31, 2012 to be within a range of $0.42 to $0.46 per diluted share and net loss to be within a range of $(0.03) to $(0.07) per diluted common share.  The Company's guidance is impacted by the disposition of certain assets to generate liquidity and reduce outstanding indebtedness.  Given the nature of the Company’s business as a real estate owner and operator, the Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors when measuring operating performance because it excludes various items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of operating performance, such as gains or losses from sales and impairments of operating properties and depreciation and amortization, which can make periodic and peer analyses of operating performance more difficult.

While other factors may impact FFO and net earnings, the Company’s 2012 guidance is based primarily on the following assumptions:

·  
The disposition of three to five properties with gross proceeds between $55-$65 million, which results in a $0.03 to $0.04 reduction in FFO per diluted share;
·  
$0.01 reduction of the non-cash rent related to market lease amortization;
·  
$80 million of floating-rate construction debt fixed throughout 2012 at a 5% rate;
·  
Full year effect of the additional interest expense related to the $82 million ten-year secured financing at 5.44% on six assets of approximately $0.03;
·  
Portfolio leased percentage ranging from 93% to 94% at December 31, 2012;
·  
A year over year increase of 1.0% to 2.0% in same property net operating income as compared to the prior year;
·  
Transactional FFO and lease termination fees ranging from $0.01 to $0.03 per share; and
·  
General and administrative expense ranging from approximately $6.5 million to $6.8 million.

The Company’s 2012 guidance is also based on a number of other assumptions, many of which are outside the Company’s control and all of which are subject to change.  The Company may change its guidance as actual and anticipated results vary from these assumptions.  The Company’s guidance excludes any potential transaction costs.

Following is a reconciliation of the range of 2012 estimated diluted net loss per share to estimated diluted FFO per share:

Same Property analysis excludes Courthouse Shadows, The Centre and Bolton Plaza properties as the Company pursues redevelopment of these properties.
   
2
Same Property net operating income is considered a non-GAAP measure because it excludes net gains from outlot sales, write offs of straight-line rent and lease intangibles, bad debt expense and related recoveries, lease termination fees and significant prior year expense recoveries and adjustments, if any.
   


The Company believes that Net Operating Income (“NOI”) is helpful to investors as a measure of its operating performance because it excludes various items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of its operating performance, such as depreciation and amortization, interest expense, and impairment, if any.  The Company believes that Same Property NOI is helpful to investors as a measure of its operating performance because it includes only the NOI of properties that have been owned for the full period presented, which eliminates disparities in net income due to the redevelopment, acquisition or disposition of properties during the particular period presented, and thus provides a more consistent metric for the comparison of the Company's properties.  Same Property NOI should not, however, be considered as alternatives to net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP) as indicators of the Company's financial performance.
