Healthcare Trust of America, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2012 Results
Scottsdale, Arizona (May 15, 2012) – Healthcare Trust of America, Inc. (“HTA”) announced results for the three months ended March 31, 2012.
First Quarter 2012 Highlights
| • | Measured Growth in Normalized FFO: Normalized funds from operations, or Normalized FFO, increased $1.8 million, or 6.2%, to $29.9 million, or $0.13 per share, as compared to 2011. |
| • | Increasing NOI: Net operating income, or NOI, excluding the impact of lease termination revenue, increased by 6.1%, or $2.8 million, to $48.5 million as compared to 2011. |
| • | Reduced Rental Expenses: Rental expenses as a percentage of rental income decreased to 32.5% as compared to 34.5% in 2011. |
| • | Focused Acquisitions: We invested in four portfolios, which included 16 high quality medical office buildings located on campuses or aligned with three regionally recognized healthcare systems, 13 of which were included in one transaction discussed below. These healthcare systems are the dominant healthcare systems in these markets and these markets complement our existing portfolio. The aggregate purchase price of these investments for the quarter was $214.2 million and included approximately 1.2 million square feet of GLA with a weighted average occupancy of 99.5%. These investments increased our total portfolio value, based on purchase price, to $2.5 billion and our total portfolio GLA to approximately 12.4 million square feet. As of March 31, 2012, approximately 96% of our portfolio, based on GLA, was located on or adjacent to, or anchored by the campuses of nationally and regionally recognized healthcare systems. Highlights of our investments for the quarter included the following: |
| • | St. John Providence MOB – An approximately 203,000 square foot on-campus medical office building located in Novi, Michigan, was acquired for $51.3 million. The St. John Providence MOB, which was 99% leased as of the date of acquisition, is connected directly to the Providence Park Hospital via an enclosed walkway. Providence Park Hospital is part of Ascension Health Systems (Moody’s Investors Services rated Aa1). |
| • | Penn Avenue Place—Penn Avenue Place was acquired for $54.0 million and is an eight story, approximately 558,000 square foot, Class A office building located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The building was approximately 99.6% occupied as of the date of acquisition and is anchored by Highmark, Inc. (Standard & Poor’s Rating Service rated A). Highmark, Inc., which leases and occupies 92.4% of the building, is one of the largest Blue Cross affiliates in the nation. |
| • | Steward Portfolio—Located in Boston, Massachusetts, the Steward Portfolio was acquired for a purchase price of $100.0 million. This portfolio consists of 13 medical office buildings located on the campuses of the Steward Care network. Steward Health Care System LLC master leased 100% of the GLA, on a triple net basis through 2024. The buildings total approximately 372,000 square feet. Steward Health Care System is the largest fully integrated community care organization in New England and is the third largest employer in Massachusetts. |
| • | Camp Creek MOB—An additional medical office building in our existing portfolio on the Camp Creek campus in Atlanta, Georgia, was acquired for $8.9 million. This building is approximately 30,000 square feet of GLA and is our third building in our Camp Creek portfolio, the original portion of which was acquired in the second quarter of 2010. |
| • | Pro Forma Results: If the above acquisitions were completed on the first day of the quarter, NOI would have been $51.5 million and normalized FFO would have been $31.9 million or $0.14 per share. |
| • | Credit Rated Tenants: The acquisitions made during the quarter increased our investment grade rated tenants as a percent of annualized base rent to 39% as of March 31, 2012. This adds further strength to the 56% of our annualized base rent derived from tenants that have (or whose parent companies have) a credit rating from a nationally recognized rating agency. |
| • | Flexible Balance Sheet: We had total assets of $2.5 billion, cash and cash equivalents of $35.1 million, and a leverage ratio of indebtedness to undepreciated assets of 30.4%. As of March 31, 2012, we had ample liquidity with $675.0 million available on our new credit facility discussed below. |
| • | New Unsecured Credit Facility: We entered into a new unsecured credit facility during the quarter. The new facility replaced our previous credit facility that was to mature in May 2014 and decreased our funded borrowing costs by 60 basis points. The new credit facility includes an unsecured revolving credit facility of $575.0 million and an unsecured term loan of $300.0 million that expires in 2016 with a one year extension option. As of March 31, 2012, our $575.0 million credit facility was undrawn and we had $100.0 million available on our $300.0 million term loan. |
| • | Strong Occupancy & Tenant Retention: The occupancy rate of our portfolio remains stable at approximately 91% and our tenant retention for the quarter was over 90%. |
| • | In-House Property Management Platform: During the quarter we transitioned our South Carolina property portfolios and a significant portion of our Phoenix area portfolios from third party property management companies to our in-house property management platform. We expect to have 58% of our current GLA managed internally by year end. |
Funds from Operations and Normalized Funds from Operations
HTA defines FFO, a non-GAAP measure, as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of property and impairment write downs of depreciable assets, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. HTA uses normalized funds from operations, or normalized FFO, which excludes from FFO transition charges, acquisition-related expenses, net change in fair value of derivative financial instruments, lease termination fee revenue, escrow settlement revenue, and the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs or prepayment penalties, to further evaluate how its portfolio might perform after its acquisition stage is complete and the sustainability of its distributions in the future.
FFO or normalized FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income or to cash flows from operating activities and are not intended to be used as a liquidity measure indicative of cash flow available to fund HTA’s cash needs, including its ability to make distributions. FFO and normalized FFO should be reviewed in connection with other GAAP measurements. For more information on FFO and normalized FFO, please see HTA’s Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2012 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The following is the reconciliation of FFO and normalized FFO to net (loss) income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011:

Net Operating Income
NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure that is defined as net income (loss), computed in accordance with GAAP, generated from HTA’s total portfolio of properties before interest expense, general and administrative expenses, depreciation, amortization, acquisition-related expenses, and interest and dividend income. HTA believes that NOI provides an accurate measure of the operating performance of its operating assets because NOI excludes certain items that are not associated with management of the properties. Additionally, HTA believes that NOI is a widely accepted measure of comparative operating performance in the real estate community. However, HTA’s use of the term NOI may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies as they may have different methodologies for computing this amount.
The following is the reconciliation of net (loss) income to NOI for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011:
