The Howard Hughes Corporation® Reports First Quarter 2020 Results
Resilient first quarter results and significantly enhanced liquidity profile achieved through $594 million in net proceeds from common stock offering, sale of 100 Fellowship Drive and recent financing activities

Dallas, TX, May 11, 2020The Howard Hughes Corporation® (NYSE: HHC) (the “Company,” “HHC” or “we”) announced today operating results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020. The financial statements, exhibits and reconciliations of non-GAAP measures in the attached Appendix and the Supplemental Information at Exhibit 99.2 provide further details of these results.

“The first quarter of 2020 saw our company continue its positive momentum from last quarter, which was the strongest in our history, and we were on our way to eclipsing those results prior to the arrival of the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Paul H. Layne, Chief Executive Officer. “Despite the challenges presented by the pandemic, our first quarter of 2020 demonstrates that our financial discipline and prudent actions have us well-positioned for a quick return as we see demand in each of our markets for development and growth.

“With the onset of the pandemic, we quickly took action to protect our employees, tenants, customers and communities, as well as further secure the financial footing of our company. A successful common stock offering generated $594 million, which, along with debt financing and overhead reduction, has provided us the liquidity and flexibility to continue to make the best long-term value decisions. In addition, the equity raise gives us the ability to execute on value-creating projects in this challenging environment.

“Early on, we saw that the pandemic seemed to be uniquely positioned in the regions where we operate and would affect many of the sectors that have been meaningful drivers of our financial results.

“While retail collections and our Woodlands’ hotels have been negatively impacted by the pandemic beginning in April, we continue to see strong results across our businesses. We have received approximately 95% for both our office and multi-family collections. At Ward Village, Victoria Place remains the fastest-selling market tower in the history of the development, and is already 65.9% pre-sold as of April 30, 2020. We have also maintained outstanding leasing momentum at 110 North Wacker in downtown Chicago, where our trophy-class office tower is 74% leased in advance of its fourth quarter 2020 completion date.

“As a result of the pandemic, our three hotels in The Woodlands were shut down in accordance with government guidelines, which had a negative effect on our financial results in the first quarter. Restrictions are now beginning to lift and, due to demand, we will begin resuming operations on a limited basis at our Woodlands’ hotels starting at the end of the month. While we are encouraged by these positive signs and results we have seen, we recognize that the pandemic has created uncertainties as to our future results.

“We are making significant progress on the execution of our Transformation Plan commitments to sell non-core properties and to focus resources on the growth of our core MPC business. In The Woodlands, the sale of 100 Fellowship Drive generated $64.2 million in net proceeds, and exemplifies the type of value creation opportunities that Howard Hughes is able to execute in challenging times. We have also signed a 133,948-square-foot lease for the top five floors of 9950 Woodloch Forest Drive, one of the two premier Class AAA towers recently rebranded The Woodlands Towers at The Waterway.

“The master planned communities that are the core of our business have always been highly desirable places to live, offering residents an exceptional quality of life, including some of the best schools and hospital systems in the country. Our MPCs are walkable communities in beautiful, natural settings with urban conveniences, outstanding amenities, low density, and expansive open green space with hiking and biking trails. Our communities, including Summerlin, The Woodlands, Bridgeland, Columbia and Ward Village provide the exceptional lifestyle options that so many people are now seeking in a post-COVID world.”

First Quarter 2020 Highlights

Net income attributable to common stockholders decreased to a loss of $125.1 million, or $2.88 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $31.8 million, or $0.74 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2019.
Completed an equity offering of common stock resulting in the issuance of 12,270,900 shares and receipt of $593.7 million in net proceeds.
Completed $537.2 million of new financings, which include a $356.8 million construction loan for Kō'ula, a $137.0 million partial refinance of The Woodlands Towers at the Waterway bridge loan and a $43.4 million construction loan for Creekside Park Apartments Phase II.
Total Net operating income (“NOI”)(1) from the Operating Assets segment, including our share of NOI from equity investments, grew by 24.2% to $63.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $51.4 million for the prior year period.
MPC segment earnings before tax (“EBT”) increased by $6.5 million to $44.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, primarily driven by higher builder price participation at Summerlin and higher Equity in earnings from real estate and other affiliates at The Summit.
Continued progress on announced Transformation Plan highlighted by the sale of 100 Fellowship Drive, the 203,257 square foot building in The Woodlands® that is home to MD Anderson, for net proceeds of $64.2 million, resulting in a gain of $38.3 million.
Launched public pre-sales of our newest project at Ward Village®, Victoria Place®, where as of April 30, 2020, we have executed contracts for 230 condominium units, or 65.9% of total units.
Increased Seaport District segment revenues by $2.7 million to $9.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the prior year period due to The Fulton and Malibu Farm, which opened in the second and third quarters of 2019, respectively, as well as rental revenue as a result of increased occupancy over the period. This growth was despite the complete shut-down of the Seaport District on March 14, 2020.
Western Midstream Partners, LP signed a 133,948-square-foot lease for the top five floors of 9950 Woodloch Forest Drive at The Woodlands Towers at The Waterway.

COVID-19 Impact - For the month ended April 30, 2020

The health and safety of our employees, tenants and customers remains our highest priority. We activated our Crisis Committee and created a task force to prepare buildings for re-occupancy and will implement a number of processes and communications to provide a safe environment at our properties.
We continue to maintain a strong liquidity position with $1.0 billion of total liquidity as of March 31, 2020, consisting of $971.7 million of cash and $64.2 million of cash held in 1031 exchange escrow.
For the month ending April, we collected, of our total commercial billings, 94.5% of our Office portfolio billings, 95.3% of our Multi-family portfolio billings, 44.3% of our Retail portfolio billings and 76.6% of our Other portfolio billings. Our hospitality properties remain closed since March 22, 2020.

While they do not directly impact our results of operations, we believe that new home sales are a leading indicator for future homes sales in our MPCs. April new home sales decreased 47.5% to 83 homes sold across all of our MPCs relative to March 2020 new home sales.
The Seaport District remains closed, and we are continuing to monitor the status of containment measures and mandatory closures in New York City, which will directly impact our revenue in our managed businesses, our tenants and their ability to make timely rental payments under their leases with us and our ability to continue construction at the Tin Building.
At Ward Village, we contracted to sell five additional condominiums at Victoria Place in April 2020.
Through our HHCares program, we have leveraged our owned restaurants and partnered with our grocery and restaurant tenants to provide food to local hospitals, first responders and displaced hospitality employees.

Highlights of our results for the three months ended March 31, 2020, are summarized below. We are primarily focused on creating shareholder value by increasing our per share net asset value. Often, the nature of our business results in short-term volatility in our net income due to the timing of MPC land sales, recognition of condominium revenue and operating business pre-opening expenses, and, as such, we believe the following metrics are most useful in tracking our progress towards net asset value creation.

Appendix - Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 and 2019

Below are GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliations of certain financial measures, as required under Regulation G of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Non-GAAP information should be considered by the reader in addition to, but not

7



instead of, the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial information presented may be determined or calculated differently by other companies and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures.

As a result of our four segments, Operating Assets, Master Planned Communities (“MPC”), Seaport District and Strategic Developments, being managed separately, we use different operating measures to assess operating results and allocate resources among these four segments. The one common operating measure used to assess operating results for our business segments is earnings before tax (“EBT”). EBT, as it relates to each business segment, represents the revenues less expenses of each segment, including interest income, interest expense and equity in earnings of real estate and other affiliates. EBT excludes corporate expenses and other items that are not allocable to the segments. We present EBT because we use this measure, among others, internally to assess the core operating performance of our assets. However, segment EBT should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income.

NOI

We believe that NOI is a useful supplemental measure of the performance of our Operating Assets and Seaport District portfolio because it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the revenues and expenses directly associated with owning and operating real estate properties and the impact on operations from trends in rental and occupancy rates and operating costs. We define NOI as operating revenues (rental income, tenant recoveries and other revenue) less operating expenses (real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, marketing and other property expenses, including our share of NOI from equity investees). NOI excludes straight-line rents and amortization of tenant incentives, net; interest expense, net; ground rent amortization; demolition costs; other (loss) income; amortization; depreciation; development-related marketing cost; gain on sale or disposal of real estate and other assets, net; provision for impairment and equity in earnings from real estate and other affiliates. All management fees have been eliminated for all internally-managed properties. We use NOI to evaluate our operating performance on a property-by-property basis because NOI allows us to evaluate the impact that property-specific factors such as lease structure, lease rates and tenant base have on our operating results, gross margins and investment returns. Variances between years in NOI typically result from changes in rental rates, occupancy, tenant mix and operating expenses. Although we believe that NOI provides useful information to investors about the performance of our Operating Assets and Seaport District assets, due to the exclusions noted above, NOI should only be used as an additional measure of the financial performance of the assets of this segment of our business and not as an alternative to GAAP Net income (loss). For reference, and as an aid in understanding our computation of NOI, a reconciliation of segment EBT to NOI for Operating Assets and Seaport District has been presented in the tables below.
