American Realty Investors, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2012 Results
Dallas (May 15, 2012) - American Realty Investors, Inc. (NYSE:ARL), a Dallas-based real estate investment company, today reported results of operations for the first quarter ended March 31, 2012. ARL announced today that the Company reported net loss applicable to common shares of $7.5 million or $0.65 per diluted earnings per share, as compared to a net loss applicable to common shares of $9.8 million or $0.85 per diluted earnings per share for the same period ended 2011. Included in the net loss applicable to common shares of $7.5 million is $5.7 million in depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012. For the same period ending March 31, 2011, included in the net loss applicable to common shares of $9.8 million is $7.2 million in depreciation and amortization expense and $6.1 million of impairment reserves on real estate assets and notes receivable.
Rental and other property revenues were $30.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. This represents an increase of $2.4 million, as compared to the prior period revenues of $27.9 million. This change, by segment, is an increase in the apartment portfolio of $2.7 million, offset by decrease in the commercial portfolio of $0.1 million and decrease in the land and other portfolios of $0.2 million. Within the apartment portfolio, there was an increase of $2.2 million due to the developed properties in the lease-up phase and an increase of $0.5 million in the same property portfolio. Within the commercial portfolio, the same property portfolio decreased by $0.1 million. Over the past several years, we have directed our efforts to apartment development and put some of our land development projects on hold until the economic conditions turn around. We continue to market our properties aggressively to attract new tenants and strive for continuous improvement of our properties in order to maintain our existing tenants.
Mortgage and loan interest expense was $17.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. This represents an increase of $3.0 million, as compared to the prior period interest expense of $14.7 million. This change, by segment, is an increase in our apartment portfolio of $4.1 million, an increase in our commercial portfolio of $0.5 million, offset by a decrease in our land and other portfolio of $1.6 million. Within the apartment portfolio, the same apartment portfolio increased $3.0 million due to prepayment penalties paid for the refinancing of four apartment loans in the current period. The developed properties increased $1.1 million due to properties in the lease-up phase. Once an apartment is completed, the interest expense is no longer capitalized. Within the commercial portfolio, the same properties increased by $0.6 million due to changes in terms on existing mortgages. The decrease in the land and other portfolio was due to land sales.
There was no provision for impairment recorded in the current year.
Interest income was $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. This represents an increase of $2.6 million, as compared to the prior period interest income of $0.7 million. The majority of this increase is due to the accrued interest recognition on the cash flow notes from Unified Housing Foundation, Inc. Prior to January 1, 2012, on cash flow notes where payments are based upon surplus cash from operations, accrued but unpaid interest income was only recognized to the extent that cash was received. As of January 1, 2012, due to the consistency of cash received on the surplus cash notes, we recorded interest as earned.
Loss on land sales increased for the three months ended March 31, 2012, as compared to the prior period. In the current period, we sold 461.17 acres of land in five separate transactions for an aggregate sales price of $8.2 million and recorded a loss of $1.0 million. In the prior period, we sold 230.45 acres of land in 12 separate transactions for an aggregate sales price of $50.1 million and recorded a gain of $5.3 million.
Included in discontinued operations are a total of three and 23 properties as of 2012 and 2011, respectively. Properties sold in 2012 have been reclassified to discontinued operations for the current and prior reporting periods. In 2012, we sold one apartment complex one apartment complex was held for sale and one commercial property was held for sale. In 2011, we sold two apartment complexes 12 commercial properties, four hotels, 13 acres of land with a storage warehouse and one trade show and exhibit hall. The gain on sale of the properties is also included in discontinued operations for those years.
