PS Business Parks, Inc. (NYSE:PSB) reported operating results for the quarter ended December 31, 2016.
Net income allocable to common shareholders was $12.9 million, or $0.47 per share, for the three months ended December 31, 2016, a decrease of $2.0 million, or 13.4%, from $14.9 million, or $0.55 per share, for the three months ended December 31, 2015. Net income allocable to common shareholders was $62.9 million, or $2.31 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2016, a decrease of $5.4 million, or 7.9%, from $68.3 million, or $2.52 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2015. The three month decrease was mainly due to non-cash distributions recorded for the preferred equity redeemed in January, 2017, while the full year decrease was due to the gain on sale of real estate facilities recognized in 2015. The three month and full year decreases were partially offset by an increase in overall net operating income (“NOI”).
Funds from operations (“FFO”) were $41.1 million, or $1.18 per share, for the three months ended December 31, 2016, a decrease of $4.0 million from the three months ended December 31, 2015 of $45.1 million, or $1.31 per share. For the year ended December 31, 2016, FFO was $179.9 million, or $5.17 per share, an increase of $15.7 million from the year ended December 31, 2015 of $164.2 million, or $4.76 per share. The three month decrease was due to non-cash distributions recorded for the redemption of preferred equity in January, 2017, offset by reduced interest expense resulting from the repayment of the $250.0 million mortgage note on June 1, 2016. The full year increase in FFO was mainly due to an increase in NOI and decreased interest expense partially offset by an increase in non-cash distributions.
Management believes FFO, as adjusted, provides useful information to the investment community by adjusting FFO for certain items so as to provide more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our operating performance. Therefore, the Company excluded the non-cash distributions recorded for the redemption of preferred equity in January, 2017, a lease buyout payment of $528,000, acquisition transaction costs and a net non-cash stock compensation charge of $2.0 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 in order to compute FFO, as adjusted.
FFO, as adjusted, was $48.4 million, or $1.39 per share, for the three months ended December 31, 2016, an increase of $3.3 million from the three months ended December 31, 2015 of $45.1 million, or $1.31 per share, as adjusted. For the year ended December 31, 2016, FFO, as adjusted, was $189.0 million, or $5.44 per share, an increase of $22.3 million from the year ended December 31, 2015 of $166.7 million, or $4.83 per share, as adjusted.

Same Park NOI increased $1.5 million, or 2.4%, for the three months ended December 31, 2016 and $12.4 million, or 5.0%, for the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to the same periods in 2015. The increases in Same Park NOI were driven by improving occupancy and rental rates as adjusted rental income increased $2.9 million, or 3.1%, from $92.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015 to $94.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016 and $14.5 million, or 4.0%, from $361.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 to $376.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2016. The full year adjusted rental income and NOI noted above exclude the $528,000 lease buyout payment.
Non-Same Park NOI increased $77,000, or 7.4%, for the three months ended December 31, 2016 and $1.5 million, or 47.3%, for the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to the same periods in 2015 as a result of an increase in occupancy related to 2014 acquisitions.
All per share amounts noted above are presented on a diluted basis.
Property Operations
To evaluate the performance of the Company’s portfolio over comparable periods, management analyzes the operating performance of properties owned and operated throughout both periods (herein referred to as “Same Park”). The Same Park portfolio includes all operating properties acquired prior to January 1, 2014. Operating properties acquired subsequently are referred to as “Non-Same Park.” For the three months and years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Same Park facilities constitute 27.2 million rentable square feet, representing 96.8% of the 28.1 million square feet in the Company’s total portfolio as of December 31, 2016.
The following table presents the operating results of the Company’s properties for the three months and years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 in addition to other income and expense items affecting net income (unaudited, in thousands, except per square foot amounts):

(3) | NOI, a non-GAAP measure, is often used by investors to determine the performance and value of commercial real estate. Management believes that Same Park NOI, also a non-GAAP measure, provides investors a useful measure for comparing the performance of the Company’s commercial real estate portfolio across reporting periods. The Company’s calculation of NOI and Same Park NOI may not be comparable to those of other companies and should not be used as an alternative to measures of performance in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. | |||

In connection with the redemption, the Company reported non-cash distributions of $7.3 million, representing the original issuance costs, as a reduction of net income allocable to common shareholders and unit holders for the three months and year ended December 31, 2016.

(1) | FFO is computed in accordance with the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). The White Paper defines FFO as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, before depreciation, amortization, gains or losses on asset dispositions, net income allocable to noncontrolling interests—common units, net income allocable to restricted stock unit holders, impairment charges and nonrecurring items. FFO and FFO, as adjusted, are non-GAAP financial measures and should be analyzed in conjunction with net income. However, FFO and FFO, as adjusted, should not be viewed as substitutes for net income as a measure of operating performance or liquidity as they do not reflect depreciation and amortization costs or the level of capital expenditure and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of the Company’s properties, which are significant economic costs and could materially impact the Company’s results from operations. Other REITs may use different methods for calculating FFO and/or FFO, as adjusted and, accordingly, the Company’s FFO and FFO, as adjusted, may not be comparable to other real estate companies’ FFO or adjusted FFO. | |||
(2) | Per share amounts are computed using additional dilutive shares related to noncontrolling interests and restricted stock units. | |||
(3) | FAD is a non-GAAP financial measure that is computed by adjusting FFO for recurring capital improvements, which the Company defines as those costs incurred to maintain the assets’ value, tenant improvements, lease commissions, straight-line rent, stock compensation expense, in-place lease adjustment, amortization of lease incentives and tenant improvement reimbursements, capitalized interest and the effect of redemption of preferred equity. Like FFO, the Company considers FAD to be a useful measure for investors to evaluate the operations and cash flows of a REIT. FAD does not represent net income or cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP. | |||
