Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

 

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

Equity One, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company” or “Equity One”), is hereby providing the fair value of its investment property as defined by International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) IAS 40, “Investment Property” as of March 31, 2012. As announced previously, the Company has agreed to provide this information to Gazit-Globe Ltd. (“Gazit”), its major indirect stockholder, in connection with Gazit’s financial reports which are prepared in accordance with IFRS.

IFRS permits fair value accounting for investment property, which includes property held for development and for sale. In addition, in accordance with IFRS, the value of straight-line rent receivables, deferred costs and intangible assets and liabilities related to income-producing property are not presented separately since they are included within the fair values of income-producing property.

The Company recently completed a valuation review at March 31, 2012 to determine the fair value of its existing investment property portfolio. Based upon the internal review, Equity One determined that as of March 31, 2012, the fair value of its investment property was approximately $3,481,251,000.

The determination of these values required management to make significant estimates and assumptions, and the actual values achieved in the event of any disposition of investment property may differ from the values incorporated into the fair value determination noted above.

The shopping center in the Company’s portfolio with the highest fair value is Serramonte Shopping Center located in Daly City, California with a value as of March 31, 2012 of approximately $239,000,000.

The information contained in this report on Form 8-K shall not be deemed “filed” with the Securities and Exchange Commission nor incorporated by reference in any registration statement filed by the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
