NEWS RELEASE - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE    

JULY 29, 2014

Equity Residential Reports 10% Increase in Normalized FFO per Share
For Second Quarter 2014
Full Year Guidance Raised on Strong Operations


Chicago, IL - July 29, 2014 - Equity Residential (NYSE: EQR) today reported results for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2014. All per share results are reported as available to common shares on a diluted basis.

"Demand for well located, high quality rental housing in our core markets remains exceptionally strong as favorable demographics and an improving economy combine to deliver operating results at the high end of our expectations portfolio wide," said David J. Neithercut, Equity Residential's President and CEO. "As a result, we currently expect full year growth in same store revenues of 4% and Normalized Funds from Operations to increase 9% per share."

Second Quarter 2014
FFO (Funds from Operations), as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT), for the second quarter of 2014 was $0.77 per share compared to $0.73 per share in the second quarter of 2013. The difference is due primarily to the items discussed below, partially offset by higher gains on land sales in the second quarter of 2013.

For the second quarter of 2014, the company reported Normalized FFO of $0.78 per share compared to $0.71 per share in the same period of 2013. The following items impacted Normalized FFO per share in the quarter:

the positive impact of approximately $0.06 per share from higher same store net operating income (NOI) and approximately $0.01 per share from NOI from non-same store properties currently in lease up; and

the negative impact of approximately $0.03 per share from 2013 disposition activity, the proceeds from which were used to repay debt resulting in a positive impact of approximately $0.03 per share from lower total interest expense, along with other items.

Normalized FFO begins with FFO and eliminates certain items that by their nature are not comparable from period to period or that tend to obscure the company’s actual operating performance. A reconciliation and definition of Normalized FFO are provided on pages 25 and 28 of this release and the company has included guidance for Normalized FFO on page 26 of this release.

For the second quarter of 2014, the company reported earnings of $0.31 per share compared to $0.90 per share in the second quarter of 2013. The difference is due primarily to higher gains on property sales in the second quarter of 2013 partially offset by higher depreciation expense in the second quarter of 2013.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2014
FFO for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $1.48 per share compared to $0.97 per share in the same period of 2013. The difference is due primarily to the acquisition expenses and prepayment penalties the company incurred in the first six months of 2013, along with the items described above.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the company reported Normalized FFO of $1.49 per share compared to $1.35 per share for the same period of 2013.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the company reported earnings of $0.52 per share compared to $3.84 per share for the same period of 2013. The difference is due primarily to higher gains on property sales in the first six months of 2013 partially offset by higher depreciation expense, acquisition expenses and prepayment penalties incurred in the first six months of 2013.

Same Store Results
The company’s same store results for all periods include 18,465 stabilized apartment units acquired in the Archstone acquisition that are owned and managed by the company.

On a same store second quarter to second quarter comparison, which includes 100,648 apartment units, revenues increased 4.1%, expenses increased 1.4% and NOI increased 5.5%.

On a same store six-month to six-month comparison, which includes 100,648 apartment units, revenues increased 4.0%, expenses increased 2.3% and NOI increased 5.0%.

Investment Activity
During the second quarter of 2014, the company acquired a 134-unit apartment property in Seattle for a purchase price of approximately $36.1 million pursuant to a contract executed prior to the commencement of construction. The company has recently completed the initial lease up of the asset and expects to achieve a capitalization (cap) rate of 6.4% at stabilization, which will occur in the second year of ownership. The company also acquired a 208-unit apartment property in lease up in Glendale, California for a purchase price of approximately $70.5 million and a cap rate of 4.9% at stabilization, which will occur in the second year of ownership. Also during the quarter, the company acquired a land parcel in Seattle for future development for approximately $10.3 million.

During the second quarter, the company sold a 336-unit apartment property in Orlando, Florida for approximately $40.9 million and a cap rate of 6.7%. This sale generated an unlevered internal rate of return (IRR), inclusive of management costs, of 7.9%. The company also sold a land parcel in Los Angeles for approximately $8.2 million during the quarter. These were the only property and land sales made by the company during the first six months of 2014.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the company acquired three properties with a total of 772 apartment units for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $249.6 million at a weighted average cap rate of 5.1%.

Capital Markets Activities
On June 19, 2014, the company closed two unsecured note offerings totaling $1.2 billion. The company closed a $750 million unsecured note offering maturing July 1, 2044 with a coupon of 4.5% and an all in effective rate of approximately 4.57% including the effect of underwriters’ fees and the termination of certain interest rate hedges. In addition, the company closed a $450 million unsecured note offering maturing July 1, 2019 with a coupon of 2.375% and an all in effective rate of approximately 2.52% including the effect of underwriters’ fees. The company swapped the 5-year notes to a floating rate of 90-Day LIBOR plus 0.61% and an all in effective rate of 90-Day LIBOR plus 0.75%. Proceeds from these issuances were used to repay the company’s $750 million term loan facility that was scheduled to mature in 2015 and its outstanding balance on its revolving line of credit.

Third Quarter 2014 Guidance
The company has established a Normalized FFO guidance range of $0.77 to $0.81 per share for the third quarter of 2014. The difference between the company’s second quarter Normalized FFO of $0.78 per share and the midpoint of the third quarter guidance range of $0.79 per share is due primarily to:

the positive impact of approximately $0.01 per share from same store and lease up NOI;

the positive impact of approximately $0.01 per share from lower G&A expenses; and

the negative impact of approximately $0.01 per share from higher total interest expense resulting from the company’s June 2014 debt offerings.

Full Year 2014 Guidance
The company has revised its guidance for its full year 2014 same store operating performance and Normalized FFO results as well as other items listed on page 26 of this release. The changes to the full year same store and Normalized FFO guidance are listed below:

The difference between the midpoint of the previous Normalized FFO guidance range of $3.08 per share and the midpoint of the revised guidance range of $3.10 per share is due primarily to:

the positive impact of approximately $0.04 per share from higher NOI; and

(1)
The Company's primary financial measure for evaluating each of its apartment communities is net operating income ("NOI"). NOI represents rental income less property and maintenance expense, real estate tax and insurance expense and property management expense. The Company believes that NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental measure of its operating performance because it is a direct measure of the actual operating results of the Company's apartment communities. See page 28 for reconciliations from operating income.
 
 
(2)
Average rental rate is defined as total rental revenues divided by the weighted average occupied apartment units for the period.

Represents the Company's $2.5 billion unsecured revolving credit facility maturing April 1, 2018. The interest rate on advances under the credit facility will generally be LIBOR plus a spread (currently 1.05%) and an annual facility fee (currently 15 basis points). Both the spread and the facility fee are dependent on the credit rating of the Company's long-term debt. As of June 30, 2014, there was approximately $2.47 billion available on the Company's unsecured revolving credit facility.

Note:
The above table excludes the Company's interests in unconsolidated joint ventures entered into with AvalonBay ("AVB") in connection with the Archstone transaction. These ventures own certain non-core Archstone assets that are held for sale and succeeded to certain residual Archstone liabilities, such as liability for various employment-related matters as well as responsibility for tax protection arrangements and third-party preferred interests in former Archstone subsidiaries. The preferred interests have an aggregate liquidation value of $76.8 million at June 30, 2014. The ventures are owned 60% by the Company and 40% by AVB.

(1) Normalized EBITDA, total debt to Normalized EBITDA and net debt to Normalized EBITDA are important metrics in evaluating the credit strength of the Company and its ability to service its debt obligations. The Company believes that Normalized EBITDA, total debt to Normalized EBITDA and net debt to Normalized EBITDA are useful to investors, creditors and rating agencies because they allow investors to compare the Company's credit strength to prior reporting periods and to other companies without the effect of items that by their nature are not comparable from period to period and tend to obscure the Company's actual credit quality.

Definitions and Footnotes for Pages 6, 25 and 26
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
(1
)
The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") defines funds from operations ("FFO") (April 2002 White Paper) as net income (computed in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP")), excluding gains (or losses) from sales and impairment write-downs of depreciable operating properties, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. The April 2002 White Paper states that gain or loss on sales of property is excluded from FFO for previously depreciated operating properties only. Once the Company commences the conversion of apartment units to condominiums, it simultaneously discontinues depreciation of such property.
 
 
(2
)
Normalized funds from operations ("Normalized FFO") begins with FFO and excludes:

The Company believes that FFO and FFO available to Common Shares and Units are helpful to investors as supplemental measures of the operating performance of a real estate company, because they are recognized measures of performance by the real estate industry and by excluding gains or losses related to dispositions of depreciable property and excluding real estate depreciation (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO and FFO available to Common Shares and Units can help compare the operating performance of a company's real estate between periods or as compared to different companies. The Company also believes that Normalized FFO and Normalized FFO available to Common Shares and Units are helpful to investors as supplemental measures of the operating performance of a real estate company because they allow investors to compare the Company's operating performance to its performance in prior reporting periods and to the operating performance of other real estate companies without the effect of items that by their nature are not comparable from period to period and tend to obscure the Company's actual operating results. FFO, FFO available to Common Shares and Units, Normalized FFO and Normalized FFO available to Common Shares and Units do not represent net income, net income available to Common Shares or net cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, FFO, FFO available to Common Shares and Units, Normalized FFO and Normalized FFO available to Common Shares and Units should not be exclusively considered as alternatives to net income, net income available to Common Shares or net cash flows from operating activities as determined by GAAP or as a measure of liquidity. The Company's calculation of FFO, FFO available to Common Shares and Units, Normalized FFO and Normalized FFO available to Common Shares and Units may differ from other real estate companies due to, among other items, variations in cost capitalization policies for capital expenditures and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other real estate companies.

FFO available to Common Shares and Units and Normalized FFO available to Common Shares and Units are calculated on a basis consistent with net income available to Common Shares and reflects adjustments to net income for preferred distributions and premiums on redemption of preferred shares in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The equity positions of various individuals and entities that contributed their properties to the Operating Partnership in exchange for OP Units are collectively referred to as the "Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership". Subject to certain restrictions, the Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership may exchange their OP Units for Common Shares on a one-for-one basis.

Due to the uncertain timing and extent of property dispositions and the resulting gains/losses on sales, actual earnings could differ materially from expected earnings.
