Sequentially, same-store NOI increased by 0.6 percent on revenue growth of 1.5 percent against a 3.6 percent increase in expenses in the first quarter of 2015.
Development and Redevelopment Activity
At the end of the first quarter, the Company’s pro-rata share of the development pipeline totaled $838 million and was 73 percent funded. The $838 million consisted of $184 million of completed, non-stabilized projects and $654 million of under construction projects. Of the remaining $654 million in development projects left to complete, $326 million is expected to be completed in 2015, $162 million in 2016 and the remainder in 2017. The pipeline is expected to produce a weighted average spread between estimated stabilized yields and current market cap rates near the upper end of the Company’s 150 to 200 basis point targeted range.
During the quarter, the Company commenced one new development project. Domain Mountain View, a 155-home community located in Mountain View, CA, is being developed in a 50%/50% joint venture with MetLife for a budgeted cost of $99 million. The project is expected to be completed in 2017.
Joint Venture / Partnership Investment Activity
As previously announced, the Company completed the sale of its 20 percent ownership interest in its 3,359-home Texas Joint Venture in January. At 100 percent, the sales price was $400 million. Total proceeds to the Company were approximately $43 million, net of debt repayment and inclusive of $9.6 million of promoted interest and disposition fee income. The Company was pleased with these results, in addition to reducing its exposure to Dallas and eliminating its exposure to Houston.
Subsequent to quarter end, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with real estate private equity firm, The Wolff Company, Scottsdale, AZ (the “Partner”) to invest $136 million for a 48 percent interest in a portfolio of five communities that are currently under construction. The transaction is expected to close in May 2015. The communities are located in three of the Company’s core, coastal markets: Metro Seattle, Los Angeles and Orange County, CA. The Company’s investment is based on an initial all-in price of $559 million and the transaction will be immediately accretive to FFO. The Company’s average stabilized yield on initial price is estimated at 5.4 percent. In addition, the Company will earn a 6.5 percent preferred return on its $136 million investment through each individual community’s date of stabilization, defined as when a community reaches 80 percent occupancy for ninety consecutive days, while the Partner is allocated all economics (income and expense) during the pre-stabilization period. Upon stabilization, economics will be shared based on each partner’s ownership percentage. The Company will serve as property manager and be paid a management fee during the lease-up phase and subsequent operation of each of the communities.
The Company has a fixed price option to acquire the Partner’s remaining interest in each community beginning one year after completion. If the options are exercised for all five communities, the Company’s total price will be $597 million and the Company’s all-in stabilized yield is estimated to be 5.0 percent. In the event the Company does not exercise its options to purchase at least two communities, the Partner will be entitled to a 6.5 percent return on its implied equity in the communities not acquired. The Partner is providing certain guaranties and there will be construction loans on all five communities.
Once completed the five communities will contain 1,533 homes with a weighted average size of 844 square feet and 29,136 square feet of retail.
Additional transaction details can be found on the Investor Relations page of the Company’s website, www.udr.com.

Attachment 16(B) | |||||||||||||||||||||
UDR, Inc. Definitions and Reconciliations March 31, 2015 (Unaudited) | |||||||||||||||||||||
Funds From Operations ("FFO"): The Company defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate or of investments in non-consolidated investees that are driven by measurable decreases in the fair value of depreciable real estate held by the investee, gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable property, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. This definition conforms with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trust's definition issued in April 2002 and is comparable to FFO, diluted in Attachment 2. In the computation of diluted FFO, OP units, unvested restricted stock, stock options, and the shares of Series E Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock are dilutive; therefore, they are included in the diluted share count. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Activities of our taxable REIT subsidiary (TRS), include development and land entitlement. From time to time, we develop and subsequently sell a TRS property which results in a short-term use of funds that produces a profit that differs from the traditional long-term investment in real estate for REITs. We believe that the inclusion of these TRS gains in FFO is consistent with the standards established by NAREIT as the short-term investment is incidental to our main business. TRS gains on sales, net of taxes, are defined as net sales proceeds less a tax provision and the gross investment basis of the asset before accumulated depreciation. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Management considers FFO a useful metric for investors as the Company uses FFO in evaluating property acquisitions and its operating performance and believes that FFO should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income and cash flow as a measure of the Company's activities in accordance with GAAP. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs. A reconciliation from net income attributable to UDR, Inc. to FFO is provided on Attachment 2. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Held For Disposition Communities: The Company defines Held for Disposition Communities as those communities that were held for sale as of the end of the most recent quarter. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Interest Coverage Ratio: The Company defines Interest Coverage Ratio as net income, excluding the impact of interest expense, real estate depreciation and amortization of wholly owned and joint venture communities, other depreciation and amortization, noncontrolling interests, net gain on the sale of depreciable property, TRS income tax, divided by total interest. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Management considers interest coverage ratio a useful metric for investors as it provides ratings agencies, investors and lending partners with a widely-used measure of the Company’s ability to service its debt obligations as well as compare leverage against that of its peer REITs. A reconciliation of the components that comprise interest coverage ratio is provided on Attachment 4(C) of the Company's quarterly supplemental disclosure. | |||||||||||||||||||||

JV Return on Equity ("ROE"): The Company defines JV ROE as the pro rata share of property NOI plus property and asset management fee revenue less interest expense, divided by the average of beginning and ending equity capital for the quarter. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Management considers ROE a useful metric for investors as it provides a widely used measure of how well the Company is investing its capital on a leveraged basis. | |||||||||||||||||||||
JV Return on Invested Capital ("ROIC"): The Company defines JV ROIC as the pro rata share of property NOI plus property and asset management fee revenue divided by the average of beginning and ending invested capital for the quarter. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Management considers ROIC a useful metric for investors as it provides a widely used measure of how well the Company is investing its capital on an unleveraged basis. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Net Debt to EBITDA: The Company defines net debt to EBITDA as total debt net of cash and cash equivalents divided by EBITDA. EBITDA is defined as net income, excluding the impact of interest expense, real estate depreciation and amortization of wholly owned and other joint venture communities, other depreciation and amortization, noncontrolling interests, net gain on the sale of depreciable property, and TRS income tax. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Management considers net debt to EBITDA a useful metric for investors as it provides ratings agencies, investors and lending partners with a widely-used measure of the Company’s ability to service its debt obligations as well as compare leverage against that of its peer REITs. A reconciliation between net income and EBITDA is provided on Attachment 4(C) of the Company's quarterly supplemental disclosure. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Net Operating Income (“NOI”): The Company defines NOI as rental income less direct property rental expenses. Rental income represents gross market rent less adjustments for concessions, vacancy loss and bad debt. Rental expenses include real estate taxes, insurance, personnel, utilities, repairs and maintenance, administrative and marketing. Excluded from NOI is property management expense which is calculated as 2.75% of property revenue to cover the regional supervision and accounting costs related to consolidated property operations, and land rent. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Management considers NOI a useful metric for investors as it is a more meaningful representation of a community’s continuing operating performance than net income as it is prior to corporate-level expense allocations, general and administrative costs, capital structure and depreciation and amortization and is a widely used input, along with capitalization rates, in the determination of real estate valuations. A reconciliation from net income attributable to UDR, Inc. to NOI is provided below. | |||||||||||||||||||||
