VIRGINIA BEACH, VA, November 4, 2024 – Armada Hoffler Properties, Inc. (NYSE: AHH) today announced its results for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 and provided an update on current events and earnings guidance.
 
Third Quarter and Recent Highlights:

•Net loss attributable to common stockholders and OP Unit holders of $10.4 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, compared to net income attributable to common stockholders and OP Unit holders of $5.3 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2023. 

•Funds from operations attributable to common stockholders and OP Unit holders ("FFO") of $12.7 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, compared to $27.6 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2023. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures." 

•Normalized funds from operations attributable to common stockholders and OP Unit holders ("Normalized FFO") of $31.4 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, compared to $27.7 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2023. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures." 

•Narrowed the Company's previous guidance range for 2024 full-year Normalized FFO of $1.25 to $1.27 per diluted share.

•As of September 30, 2024, weighted average stabilized portfolio occupancy was 95.4%. Retail occupancy was 96.2%, office occupancy was 94.7%, and multifamily occupancy was 95.3%.

•Positive spreads on renewals across all segments:
◦Retail 13.1% (GAAP) and 7.8% (Cash)
◦Office 18.5% (GAAP) and 0.8% (Cash)
◦Multifamily 1.8% (GAAP and Cash)

""This quarter’s results, including our 95.4% stabilized portfolio wide occupancy, underscore our best-in-class portfolio, featuring minimal commercial lease maturities for the next few years, that continues to provide long term value," said Louis Haddad, Chief Executive Officer. "The Company is moving toward a stronger balance sheet, higher emphasis on property NOI and less reliance on fee income over time and I look forward to supporting Shawn and the rest of the management team as Executive Chair.”



•Executed 28 lease renewals and 9 new leases during the third quarter for an aggregate of 273,212 of net rentable square feet.

•Office Same Store Net Operating Income ("NOI") increased 6.1% on a GAAP basis compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

•Third-party construction backlog as of September 30, 2024 was $193.1 million and construction gross profit for the third quarter was $3.4 million.

•During the third quarter of 2024, unrealized losses on non-designated interest rate derivatives that negatively affected FFO were $16.7 million. As of September 30, 2024, the value of the Company’s entire interest rate derivative portfolio, net of unrealized losses, was $11.1 million. These losses are excluded from Normalized FFO.

•In July, realized $25.8 million in cash upon full redemption of the Solis City Park II preferred equity investment.

•Raised $108.7 million of gross proceeds in an underwritten public offering of 10.35 million shares of the Company's common stock at a public offering price of $10.50 per share. Net proceeds, after deducting the underwriting discount and offering expenses, totaled $103.4 million.

Financial Results
 
Net loss attributable to common stockholders and OP Unit holders for the third quarter decreased to $10.4 million compared to net income attributable to common stockholders and OP Unit holders of $5.3 million for the third quarter of 2023. The period-over-period change was primarily due to a decrease in the fair value of undesignated interest rate swap derivatives as well as higher interest expense, partially offset by an increase in portfolio NOI and general contracting gross profit recognized during the quarter.

FFO attributable to common stockholders and OP Unit holders for the third quarter was $12.7 million compared to $27.6 million for the third quarter of 2023. The period-over-period decrease in FFO was primarily due to a decrease in the fair value of undesignated interest rate swap derivatives, as well as higher interest expense, partially offset by an increase in portfolio NOI, interest income, and general contracting gross profit recognized during the quarter. Normalized FFO attributable to common stockholders and OP Unit holders for the third quarter increased to $31.4 million compared to $27.7 million for the third quarter of 2023. The period-over-period increase in Normalized FFO was due to increases in portfolio NOI, interest income, and general contracting gross profit recognized during the quarter, partially offset by higher interest expense.
 
Operating Performance
 
At the end of the third quarter, the Company’s retail, office, and multifamily stabilized operating property portfolios were 96.2%, 94.7%, and 95.3% occupied, respectively.
 
Total construction contract backlog was $193.1 million as of September 30, 2024.

Outlook

The Company's executive management will provide further details regarding its 2024 earnings guidance during tomorrow's webcast and conference call.

Full-year 2024 Guidance [1][2]
Expected Ranges
Portfolio NOI$171.0 M$172.2 M
Construction Segment Gross Profit$12.3 M$13.5 M
G&A Expenses($18.7 M)($18.5 M)
Interest Income$18.2 M$18.4 M
Adjusted Interest Expense[3]
($55.6 M)($54.8 M)
Normalized FFO per diluted share$1.25$1.27

[1] Ranges exclude certain items per the Company ’s Normalized FFO definition: Normalized FFO excludes certain items, including debt extinguishment losses and prepayment penalties, impairment and accelerated amortization of intangible assets and liabilities, property acquisition, development, and other pursuit costs, mark-to-market adjustments for interest rate derivatives not designated as cash flow hedges, amortization of payments made to purchase interest rate caps and swaps designated as cash flow hedges, provision for unrealized non-cash credit losses, amortization of right-of-use assets attributable to finance leases, severance related costs, and other non-comparable items. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures." The Company does not provide a reconciliation for its guidance range of Normalized FFO per diluted share to net income per diluted share, the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure, because it is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate estimate of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort as a result of the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and/or amounts of various items that would impact net income per diluted share. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information and believes that providing a reconciliation for its guidance range of Normalized FFO per diluted share would imply a degree of precision for its forward-looking net income per diluted share that could be misleading to investors.
[2] Includes the following assumptions:
•Southern Post delivery schedule update
•Initial delivery of the T. Rowe Price Global HQ and Allied | Harbor Point in the first quarter of 2025
[3] Includes the interest expense on finance leases and interest receipts of non-designated derivatives.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 
The Company calculates FFO in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("Nareit"). Nareit defines FFO as net income (loss) (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding depreciation and amortization related to real estate, gains or losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, gains and losses from change in control, and impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity.

FFO is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure. The Company uses FFO as a supplemental performance measure because it believes that FFO is beneficial to investors as a starting point in measuring the Company’s operational performance. Specifically, in excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization and gains and losses from property dispositions, which do not relate to or are not indicative of operating performance, FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared period-over-period, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, and operating costs. We also believe that, as a widely recognized measure of the performance of REITs, FFO will be used by investors as a basis to compare the Company’s operating performance with that of other REITs.
 
However, because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of the Company’s properties that result from use or market conditions nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of the Company’s properties, all of which have real economic effects and could materially impact the Company’s results from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of the Company’s performance is limited. In addition, other equity REITs may not calculate FFO in accordance with the Nareit definition as the Company does, and, accordingly, the Company’s FFO may not be comparable to such other REITs’ FFO. Accordingly, FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of the Company’s performance. FFO should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends or service indebtedness. Also, FFO should not be used as a supplement to or substitute for cash flow from operating activities computed in accordance with GAAP.
 
Management also believes that the computation of FFO in accordance with Nareit’s definition includes certain items that are not indicative of the results provided by the Company’s operating property portfolio and affect the comparability of the Company’s period-over-period performance. Accordingly, management believes that Normalized FFO is a more useful performance measure that excludes certain items, including but not limited to, debt extinguishment losses and prepayment penalties, impairment and accelerated amortization of intangible assets and liabilities, property acquisition, development, and other pursuit costs, mark-to-market adjustments for interest rate derivatives not designated as cash flow hedges, amortization of payments made to purchase interest rate caps and swaps designated as cash flow hedges, provision for unrealized non-cash credit losses, amortization of right-of-use assets attributable to finance leases, severance related costs, and other non-comparable items. Other equity REITs may not calculate Normalized FFO in the same manner as we do, and, accordingly, our Normalized FFO may not be comparable to such other REITs' Normalized FFO.

NOI is the measure used by the Company’s chief operating decision-maker to assess segment performance. The Company calculates NOI as segment revenues less segment expenses. Segment revenues include rental revenues (base rent, expense reimbursements, termination fees, and other revenue) for our property segments, general contracting and real estate services revenues for our general contracting and real estate services segment, and interest income for our real estate financing segment. Segment expenses include rental expenses and real estate taxes for our property segments, general contracting and real estate services expenses for our general contracting and real estate services segment, and interest expense for our real estate financing segment. Segment NOI for the general contracting and real estate services and real estate financing segments is also referred to as segment gross profit. NOI is not a measure of operating income or cash flows from operating activities as measured in accordance with GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. As a result, NOI should not be considered an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Not all companies calculate NOI in the same manner. The Company considers NOI to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income because it assists both investors and management in understanding the core operations of the Company’s real estate and construction businesses. To calculate NOI on a cash basis, we adjust NOI to exclude the net effects of straight line rent and the amortization of lease incentives and above/below market rents.
 
For reference, as an aid in understanding the Company’s computation of NOI, NOI Cash Basis, FFO and Normalized FFO, a reconciliation of net income calculated in accordance with GAAP to NOI, NOI Cash Basis, FFO, and Normalized FFO has been included further in this release.
