FEDERAL REALTY INVESTMENT TRUST ANNOUNCES THIRD QUARTER 1998 OPERATING RESULTS
AND ANNOUNCES A COMPREHENSIVE REENGINEERING INITIATIVE
October 28, 1998
Rockville, Maryland
Federal Realty Investment Trust (NYSE:FRT) reported today its third quarter
1998 operating results and announced a comprehensive reengineering initiative.
Funds from operations for the third quarter of 1998 increased 7% to $21.4
million from $20.0 million in the third quarter of 1997. On a per share basis,
funds from operations rose 6% to $.54 in the third quarter of 1998 from $.51 in
the comparable quarter of 1997. This increase was achieved despite the changes
in accounting policies effective earlier this year (EITF 97-11) that require
the expensing of certain internal acquisition costs. If the 1997 results were
adjusted for the accounting change, funds from operations per share would have
increased 8% in the third quarter of 1998.
A comparison of property operations for the third quarter of 1998 versus
the third quarter of 1997 shows the following:
. Rental income increased 20% to $55.4 million in 1998 from $46.1 million in
1997. When adjusted to exclude properties acquired and sold during 1997 and
1998, rental income increased 8% to $46.8 million in 1998 from $43.4
million in 1997.
. Net operating income increased 21% to $39.9 million in 1998 from $33.0
million in 1997. When adjusted to exclude properties acquired and sold
during 1997 and 1998, net operating income increased 9% to $33.9 million in
1998 from $31.1 million in 1997.
. During the third quarter of 1998, the Trust signed leases for a total
288,000 square feet of retail space. On a same space basis, the Trust re-
leased 230,000 square feet of retail space at an average increase in rent
per square foot of 10%. The weighted average rent on these leases was
$15.47 per square foot compared to the previous average rent of $14.04 per
square foot.
. Same property occupancy stood at 95% at both September 30, 1998 and 1997.
The Trust's overall portfolio was also 95% leased at both September 30, 1998
and 1997.
Funds from operations also improved for the first nine months of 1998
increasing 8% to $63.6 million from $58.9 million in the first nine months of
1997. On a per share basis, funds from operations advanced 5% to $1.59 per share
for the first nine months of 1998 compared to $1.52 for the comparable period of
1997. If 1997 results were adjusted to include the impact of accounting changes,
funds from operations per share for the first nine months of 1998 would have
increased 7%.
The Trust also announced today a comprehensive reengineering initiative
aimed at streamlining the company's operating model and improving profitability.
The reengineering efforts, including the downsizing of the acquisition team,
resulted in a reduction in the Trust's workforce of approximately 15%. As a
result of the restructuring, the Trust incurred a $4.7 million one-time charge
in the third quarter of 1998. The charge includes a provision for employee
severance and related costs, office closing and downsizing expenses, as well as
legal and consulting fees related to the restructuring program.
Commenting on the results, Steven Guttman, President and Chief Executive
Officer stated, "We remain optimistic about our long-term growth prospects. Our
ability to generate consistent core portfolio growth throughout the many
economic cycles during our 36 year history underscores the quality of our
properties and the strength of their unique locations. We are confident that
our reengineering efforts will yield cost and revenue opportunities throughout
1999 and hope to experience additional funds from operations growth as our
development projects come on stream in 2000 and 2001."
