NEW YORK, Feb. 19, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- iStar Financial Inc. (NYSE: STAR) today reported results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2014.
Fourth Quarter 2014 Results
iStar reported adjusted income allocable to common shareholders for the fourth quarter of $13.2 million, or $0.14 per diluted common share, compared to a loss of $(19.1) million, or $(0.23) per diluted common share for the fourth quarter 2013.
Adjusted income represents net income computed in accordance with GAAP, prior to the effects of certain non-cash items, primarily including depreciation, loan loss provisions, impairments, stock-based compensation and gain/loss on early extinguishment of debt. Please see the financial tables that follow the text of this press release for the Company's calculations of adjusted income (loss) as well as reconciliations to GAAP net income (loss).
Net income (loss) allocable to common shareholders for the fourth quarter was $(28.4) million, or $(0.33) per diluted common share, compared to a loss of $(57.9) million, or $(0.68) per diluted common share for the fourth quarter 2013.
Fiscal Year 2014 Results
iStar reported adjusted income allocable to common shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2014 of $94.3 million, or $0.88 per diluted common share, compared to a loss of $(21.7) million, or $(0.26) per diluted common share for the year ended December 31, 2013.
"This was a strong year for iStar as we made significant strides on a number of fronts including growing investment volume and generating over $90 million of adjusted income. A significant portion of our $1 billion land portfolio is still under development and therefore largely not yet generating revenues, but as these projects come on-line we expect them to start contributing to our growth," said Jay Sugarman, iStar's chairman and chief executive officer. "While markets remain competitive, we are excited about the potential to create value in each of our four businesses."
Net income (loss) allocable to common shareholders for the year was $(48.8) million, or $(0.57) per diluted common share, compared to a loss of $(155.8) million, or $(1.83) per diluted common share for the year ended December 31, 2013.
Investment Activity
iStar committed to new investments totaling $456.4 million during the fourth quarter, of which it funded $246.4 million. In addition, the Company funded $57.1 million associated with ongoing developments and prior financing commitments. This resulted in total fundings during the quarter of $303.5 million.
"Investment commitments this year reached $1.3 billion, the highest level in a number of years and a testament to our team's creativity and ability to provide our customers and partners with high-touch service and value-added capital," Sugarman continued. "Our focus on serving the high-end of the market allowed us to invest in stand-out properties and with premiere sponsors."
iStar generated $150.6 million of total proceeds from repayments and sales during the fourth quarter, bringing total proceeds generated from the portfolio to $1.1 billion for the year. The Company had $472.1 million of available cash at the end of the quarter.

At the end of the quarter, the Company's operating properties portfolio totaled $900.4 million, gross of $96.2 million of accumulated depreciation, and was comprised of $744.0 million of commercial and $156.4 million of residential real estate properties. During the quarter, the Company invested $15.7 million within its operating properties portfolio.
Commercial Operating
The Company's commercial operating properties represent a diverse pool of assets across a broad range of geographies and collateral types such as office, retail and hotel properties. These properties generated $28.9 million of revenue offset by $22.2 million of expenses during the quarter. iStar generally seeks to reposition or redevelop these assets with the objective of maximizing their values through the infusion of capital and/or intensive asset management efforts.
At the end of the quarter, the Company had $109.4 million of stabilized commercial operating properties that were 88% leased and generated an unleveraged yield of 7.8% for the quarter.
The remaining commercial operating properties were 58% leased and generated an unleveraged yield of 2.5% for the quarter. iStar is actively working to lease up and stabilize these properties. During the quarter, the Company executed commercial operating property leases covering approximately 445,000 square feet.
Residential Operating
At the end of the quarter, the residential operating portfolio was comprised of 332 condominium units, generally located within luxury condominium projects in major U.S. cities. During the quarter, the Company sold 127 condominium units, resulting in $71.2 million of proceeds and recorded $24.3 million of income, offset by $5.0 million of expenses.
Land
At the end of the quarter, the Company's land portfolio totaled $1.08 billion, gross of accumulated depreciation, and was comprised of 11 master planned community projects, 15 urban infill land parcels and six waterfront land parcels located throughout the United States. Master planned communities represent large-scale residential projects that the Company will entitle, plan and/or develop. These projects are currently entitled for approximately 25,000 lots.
The remainder of the Company's land includes infill and waterfront parcels located in and around major cities that the Company will develop, sell to or partner with commercial real estate developers. These projects are currently entitled for approximately 6,000 residential and hotel units, and select projects include commercial, retail and office uses.
During the quarter, the Company and its co-lenders took title to a pre-development land parcel which previously served as collateral for a loan. In addition, the Company rezoned an existing owned asset for higher and better use as a development opportunity within its land portfolio. Separately, the Company recorded a $12.4 million impairment on the initial phase of one of its land projects due to a change in business strategy which should create value for the project's remaining phases. The Company invested $22.3 million in its land portfolio during the quarter. At December 31, 2014, the Company had six land projects in production, 13 in development and 13 in the pre-development phase. As the Company continues to invest and build value in its land portfolio, it expects to move additional projects into production in the coming year and grow its land revenues.
Capital Markets
During the quarter, the Company repaid $23.7 million on its 2012 Secured Credit Facility, bringing the remaining balance to $358.5 million at December 31, 2014. The facility matures in March 2017.
The Company's weighted average cost of debt for the fourth quarter was 5.5%, down from 5.7% for the fourth quarter of last year. The Company's leverage was 2.0x at December 31, 2014, at the low end of the Company's targeted range of 2.0x – 2.5x. Please see the financial tables that follow the text of this press release for a calculation of the Company's leverage.
"We were very pleased to be able to decrease our interest expense by more than $40 million this year from last year through a combination of a reduction in overall indebtedness and cost of debt capital," said David DiStaso, iStar's chief financial officer. "At the same time, we strengthened our balance sheet this year by refinancing our largest secured debt facility with unsecured bonds, which allowed us to unencumber $2.0 billion of high-quality collateral and end the year with 85% of our debt unsecured."

(1) Adjusted Income (loss) allocable to common shareholders should be examined in conjunction with net income (loss) as shown in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. This non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of the Company's performance, or to cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of the Company's liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund the Company's cash needs or available for distribution to shareholders. It should be noted that the Company's manner of calculating this non-GAAP financial measure may differ from the calculations of similarly-titled measures by other companies. Management believes that it is useful to consider Adjusted Income because the adjustments are non-cash items that do not necessarily reflect an actual change in the long-term economic value or performance of our assets. Management considers this non-GAAP financial measure as supplemental information to net income in analyzing the performance of our underlying business. Depreciation and amortization and impairment of assets exclude adjustments from discontinued operations of $6 and $844, respectively, for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and $264 and $1,764, respectively, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013. Depreciation and amortization includes our proportionate share of depreciation and amortization expense relating to equity method investments and excludes the portion of depreciation and amortization expense allocable to non-controlling interests. For the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2013, loss on early extinguishment of debt excludes the portion of losses paid in cash of $2,021 and $13,535, respectively. | |
