Operating Highlights

During the quarter ended September 30, 2017, including the Company’s proportional share of its unconsolidated joint ventures:

Signed new leases totaling 601,000 square feet at an average of $16.25 PSF.  Since the Company’s inception in July 2015, new leasing activity has totaled approximately 4.0 million square feet at an average of $17.97 PSF.

 

Achieved releasing multiples of 4.6x for space currently or formerly occupied by Sears Holdings Corporation (“Sears Holdings”), with new rents averaging $17.97 PSF compared to $3.90 PSF paid by Sears Holdings.  Since inception, releasing multiples have averaged 4.2x, with new rents at $18.25 PSF compared to $4.30 PSF paid by Sears Holdings.

 

Added $9.8 million of new third-party rental income.  Third-party rental income has increased by over 130% since inception to $101.3 million, including all signed leases and after the impact of the GGP transactions described below.

Increased annual base rent from tenants other than Sears Holdings to 45.4% of total annual base rent from 31.4% in the prior year period, including all signed leases and net of rent attributable to associated space to be recaptured, and after the impact of the GGP transactions.

Increased annualized Total NOI to $217.6 million from $215.6 million in the prior year period, including all signed leases and net of rent attributable to associated space to be recaptured, and after the impact of the GGP transactions.

Commenced five new wholly-owned redevelopment projects and expanded one previously announced project, bringing total redevelopment activity since inception to 70 projects completed or commenced for a total estimated investment of $740 million.

As previously reported, completed two transactions with GGP for gross consideration of $247.6 million whereby the Company (i) sold to GGP the Company’s 50% interest in eight of the 12 assets in the existing joint venture between the two companies for $190.1 million; and (ii) sold to GGP a 50% joint venture interest in five additional assets for $57.5 million.  As a result of the transactions, the Company recorded aggregate gains of $56.8 million, reduced amounts outstanding under its mortgage loan by $50.6 million and received approximately $171.6 million of unrestricted cash proceeds before closing costs, which it intends to use to fund its redevelopment pipeline and for general corporate purposes.

In addition, subsequent to the quarter end, the Company:

Agreed to sell to Simon Property Group (“Simon”) the Company’s 50% interest in five of the ten assets in the existing joint venture between the two companies for $68.0 million, subject to certain closing conditions.  Upon closing, which is expected in the fourth quarter, the Company would realize approximately $7.0 million of value creation above its basis across the five properties and generate unrestricted cash proceeds, after closing costs and any required tax distributions, to fund its redevelopment pipeline and for general corporate purposes.

“We are pleased to announce another strong quarter of leasing and development activity.  With an additional 600,000 square feet leased, we now stand at approximately four million square feet of new leases signed since inception, at an average rent multiple of 4.2 times the prior rent.  We also commenced five new projects and expanded the scope of one project to bring our total completed and commenced project activity to 70 projects and $740 million of capital.  We continue to deploy this capital at attractive unlevered returns of 10-12% based on the incremental income over our incremental costs,” said Benjamin Schall, President and Chief Executive Officer.  “We also closed our transactions with GGP this quarter, receiving gross consideration of $247.6 million for interests in 13 assets and, subsequent to quarter end, we agreed to sell Simon our interest in five of our ten existing joint venture assets for $68 million.  We expect to deploy the proceeds from these transactions into our growing pipeline of value enhancing redevelopment projects throughout the portfolio.”

Financial Results

For the three months ended September 30, 2017:

Net income attributable to Class A and Class C shareholders was $10.5 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, as compared to a net loss of $21.1 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, for the prior year period.  The three months ended September 30, 2017 included gains from the sale of real estate totaling $56.8 million and the prior year period included a litigation charge of $19.0 million.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

As of September 30, 2017, the Company’s total market capitalization was approximately $3.9 billion.  Total market capitalization is calculated as the sum of total debt and the market value of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock, assuming conversion of operating partnership units.

Total debt to total market capitalization was 33.5% and net debt to Adjusted EBITDA was 7.3x.  The Company deducts both unrestricted and restricted cash from total debt when calculating net debt.  Reconciliations of net loss attributable to common shareholders to EBITDA, and EBITDA to Adjusted EBITDA, are provided in the tables accompanying this press release.

As of September 30, 2017, the Company had $104.2 million of unrestricted cash and restricted cash of $202.5 million, the substantial majority of which was held in reserve accounts for redevelopment, re-leasing and operating expenses at the Company’s properties.  The Company also had $115.0 million of borrowing capacity under its $200.0 million unsecured term loan facility due December 31, 2017.

On July 12, 2017, as a result of the two transactions with GGP, the Company reduced amounts outstanding under its mortgage loan by $50.6 million and received approximately $171.6 million of unrestricted cash proceeds before closing costs.

Subsequent to September 30, 2017, and subject to certain closing conditions, the Company agreed to sell interests in certain joint venture properties to Simon.  The transaction would generate unrestricted cash proceeds, after closing costs and any required tax distributions, to fund the Company’s redevelopment pipeline and general corporate purposes.

With respect to the December 31, 2017 maturity of the Company’s $200 million unsecured term loan facility, the Company may repay the $85.0 million total principal amount outstanding as of September 30, 2017 with cash on hand, seek an extension of the maturity date, or raise additional capital through a refinancing transaction or from the proceeds of asset sales or new joint ventures.

Dividends

On October 24, 2017, the Company’s Board of Trustees declared a fourth quarter common stock dividend of $0.25 per each Class A and Class C common share.  The dividend will be paid on January 11, 2017 to shareholders of record on December 29, 2017.  Holders of units in Seritage Growth Properties, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”) are entitled to an equal distribution per each Operating Partnership unit held as of December 29, 2017.

On July 25, 2017, the Company’s Board of Trustees declared a third quarter common stock dividend of $0.25 per each Class A and Class C common share.  The dividend was paid on October 12, 2017 to shareholders of record on September 29, 2017.  Holders of units in the Operating Partnership were entitled to an equal distribution per each Operating Partnership unit held as of September 29, 2017.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company makes reference to NOI, Total NOI, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO and Company FFO which are financial measures that include adjustments to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).

None of Total NOI, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, FFO or Company FFO, are measures that (i) represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP; (ii) are indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs, including the ability to make distributions; (iii) are alternatives to cash flow as a measure of liquidity; or (iv) should be considered alternatives to net income (which is determined in accordance with GAAP) for purposes of evaluating the Company’s operating performance.  Reconciliations of these measures to the respective GAAP measures we deem most comparable have been provided in the tables accompanying this press release.

Net Operating Income ("NOI”), Total NOI and Annualized Total NOI

NOI is defined as income from property operations less property operating expenses.  The Company believes NOI provides useful information regarding Seritage, its financial condition, and results of operations because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level.

The Company also uses Total NOI, which includes its proportional share of unconsolidated properties.  This form of presentation offers insights into the financial performance and condition of the Company as a whole given the Company’s ownership of unconsolidated properties that are accounted for under GAAP using the equity method.  The Company also considers Total NOI to be a helpful supplemental measure of its operating performance because it excludes from NOI variable items such as termination fee income, as well as non-cash items such as straight-line rent and amortization of lease intangibles.

Annualized Total NOI is an estimate, as of the end of the reporting period, of the annual Total NOI to be generated by the Company’s portfolio including all signed leases and modifications to the Company’s master lease with Sears Holdings with respect to recaptured space.   We calculate Annualized Total NOI by adding or subtracting current period adjustments for leases that commenced or expired during the period to Total NOI (as defined) for the period and annualizing, and then adding estimated annual Total NOI attributable to SNO leases and subtracting estimated annual Total NOI attributable to Sears Holdings’ space to be recaptured.

Annualized Total NOI is a forward-looking non-GAAP measure for which the Company does not believe it can provide reconciling information to a corresponding forward-looking GAAP measure without unreasonable effort.

Earnings Before Interest Expense, Income Tax, Depreciation, and Amortization ("EBITDA") and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA is defined as net income less depreciation, amortization, interest expense and provision for income and other taxes.  EBITDA is a commonly used measure of performance in many industries, but may not be comparable to measures calculated by other companies.  The Company believes EBITDA provides useful information to investors regarding its results of operations because it removes the impact of the Company’s capital structure (primarily interest expense) and its asset base (primarily depreciation and amortization).  Management also believes the use of EBITDA facilitates comparisons between the Company and other equity REITs, retail property owners who are not REITs, and other capital-intensive companies.

The Company makes certain adjustments to EBITDA, which it refers to as Adjusted EBITDA, to account for certain non-cash and non-comparable items, such as termination fee income, unrealized loss on interest rate cap, litigation charges, acquisition-related expenses, certain up-front-hiring and personnel costs and gains (or losses) from property sales, that it does not believe are representative of ongoing operating results.

Funds From Operations ("FFO") and Company FFO

FFO is calculated in accordance with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), which defines FFO as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from property sales, real estate related depreciation and amortization, and impairment charges on depreciable real estate assets.  The Company considers FFO a helpful supplemental measure of the operating performance for equity REITs and a complement to GAAP measures because it is a recognized measure of performance by the real estate industry.  

The Company makes certain adjustments to FFO, which it refers to as Company FFO, to account for certain non-cash and non-comparable items, such as termination fee income, unrealized loss on interest rate cap, litigation charges, acquisition-related expenses, amortization of deferred financing costs and certain up-front-hiring and personnel costs, that it does not believe are representative of ongoing operating results.  The Company previously referred to this metric as Normalized FFO; the definition and calculation remain the same.
