CONSOLIDATION
AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
|
UDR, Inc., formerly United Dominion Realty Trust, Inc., is a
self-administered real estate investment trust, or REIT, that
owns, acquires, renovates, develops, and manages apartment
communities nationwide. The accompanying consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of UDR and its subsidiaries,
including United Dominion Realty, L.P. (the Operating
Partnership), and Heritage Communities L.P. (the
Heritage OP) (collectively, UDR). As of
June 30, 2007, there were 166,163,187 units in the
Operating Partnership outstanding, of which
157,409,361 units or 95% were owned by UDR and
8,753,826 units or 5% were owned by limited partners (of
which 1,627,769 are owned by the holders of the Series A
OPPS). As of June 30, 2007, there were 5,542,200 units
in the Heritage OP outstanding, of which 5,212,041 units or
94% were owned by UDR and 330,159 units or 6% were owned by
limited partners. The consolidated financial statements of UDR
include the minority interests of the unitholders in the
Operating Partnership and the Heritage OP. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
consolidation.
The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial
statements have been prepared according to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States have been
condensed or omitted according to such rules and regulations,
although management believes that the disclosures are adequate
to make the information presented not misleading. The
accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements
and related notes appearing in UDRs Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2006, filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission as updated by the Current
Report on
Form 8-K
dated and filed May 18, 2007.
In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial
statements reflect all adjustments that are necessary for the
fair presentation of financial position at June 30, 2007,
and results of operations for the interim periods ended
June 30, 2007 and 2006. Such adjustments are normal and
recurring in nature. The interim results presented are not
necessarily indicative of results that can be expected for a
full year.
The preparation of these financial statements requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of
contingent liabilities at the dates of the financial statements
and the amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
periods. Actual amounts realized or paid could differ from those
estimates. Certain previously reported amounts have been
reclassified to conform to the current financial statement
presentation.
UDR adopted FASB Interpretation 48, Accounting for
Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48), on
January 1, 2007. As a result of the implementation of
FIN 48, UDR recognized no material adjustments to
liabilities related to unrecognized income tax benefits. At the
adoption date of January 1, 2007, UDRs taxable REIT
subsidiaries had $538,000 of net unrecognized tax benefits,
which would favorably impact our effective tax rate if
recognized. At June 30, 2007, UDR had $642,000 of net
unrecognized tax benefits. UDR and its subsidiaries are subject
to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of
multiple state jurisdictions. The tax years 2003
2006 remain open to examination by the major taxing
jurisdictions to which we are subject. UDR recognizes interest
and/or
penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax
expense. As of June 30, 2007, UDR had $49,000 accrued for
interest and $0 accrued for penalties.
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement No. 157,
Fair Value Measurements, and in February 2007,
Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. Statement 157
increases the consistency and comparability in fair value
measurements and expands disclosures about fair value
measurements. Statement 159 allows an entity to make a one-time
election to measure many financial assets and financial
liabilities at fair value (the fair value option).
The election is made on an
6
UDR,
Inc.
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
instrument-by-instrument
basis and is irrevocable. If the fair value option is elected
for an instrument, this statement specifies that all subsequent
changes in fair value for that instrument are reported in
earnings. Both statements are effective for fiscal years
beginning after November 15, 2007. UDR is currently
assessing the impact that these statements may have on its
consolidated financial statements.

INCOME
FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
|
UDR adopted FASB Statement No. 144, Accounting for
the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,
(FAS 144) as of January 1, 2002.
FAS 144 requires, among other things, that the primary
assets and liabilities and the results of operations of
UDRs real properties which have been sold or are held for
disposition, be classified as discontinued operations and
segregated in UDRs Consolidated Statements of Operations
and Consolidated Balance Sheets. Properties classified as real
estate held for disposition generally represent properties that
are actively marketed or contracted for sale which are expected
to close within the next twelve months.
For purposes of these financial statements, FAS 144 results
in the presentation of the primary assets and liabilities and
the net operating results of those properties sold or classified
as held for disposition through June 30, 2007, as
discontinued operations for all periods presented. The adoption
of FAS 144 does not have an impact on net income available
to common stockholders. FAS 144 only results in the
reclassification of the operating results of all properties sold
or classified as held for disposition through June 30,
2007, within the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, and the
reclassification of the assets and liabilities within the
Consolidated Balance Sheets for June 30, 2007 and
December 31, 2006.
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, UDR sold three
communities, 22 condominiums from one community with a total of
320 condominiums, and one parcel of land. UDR recognized
after-tax gains for financial reporting purposes of
$50.5 million on these sales. At June 30, 2007, UDR
had nine communities with a net book value of
$192.4 million, one community with a total of 298
condominiums and a net book value of $20.7 million, and one
commercial unit with a net book value of $0.4 million
included in real estate held for disposition. For the six months
ended June 30, 2006, UDR sold seven communities with a
total of 1,903 apartment homes and 300 condominiums from four
communities with a total of 612 condominiums. UDR recognized
after-tax gains for financial reporting purposes of
$48.8 million on these sales. In conjunction with the sale
of ten properties in July 2005, UDR received short-term notes
for $124.7 million that bear interest at 6.75% and had
maturities ranging from September 2005 to July 2006. As of
June 30, 2006, the balance on the notes receivable was
$8.0 million. UDR recognized gains for financial reporting
purposes on

NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
these notes of $10.6 million during the six months ended
June 30, 2006. The results of operations for these
properties are classified on the Consolidated Statements of
Operations in the line item titled Income from
discontinued operations, net of minority interests.
UDR has elected Taxable REIT Subsidiary (TRS) status
for certain of its corporate subsidiaries, primarily those
engaged in condominium conversion and development activities.
UDR recognized a provision for income taxes of
$0.06 million and $2.5 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. For the six
months ended June 30, 2007, UDR recognized a
$4.2 million income tax benefit and for the six months
ended June 30, 2006, UDR recognized a provision for income
taxes of $7.2 million. These amounts are included in the
income from discontinued operations, net of minority interests
in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

On July 27, 2007, UDR amended and restated its existing
three-year $500 million senior unsecured revolving credit
facility with a maturity date of May 31, 2008 (which can be
extended for an additional year at UDRs option) to
increase the facility to $600 million and to extend its
maturity to July 26, 2012. The terms of the
$500 million credit facility provide that UDR has the right
to increase the credit facility to $750 million under
certain circumstances. Based on UDRs current credit
ratings, the $500 million credit facility carries an
interest rate equal to LIBOR plus a spread of 57.5 basis
points. Under a competitive bid feature and for so long as UDR
maintains an Investment Grade Rating, UDR has the right to bid
out 50% of the commitment amount under the $500 million
credit facility and can bid out 100% of the commitment amount
once per quarter. |
|
(b) |
|
At any time on or after July 15, 2011, prior to the close
of business on the second business day prior to
September 15, 2011, and also following the occurrence of
certain events, the notes will be convertible at the option of
the holder. Upon conversion of the notes, UDR will deliver cash
and common stock, if any, |

based on a daily conversion value calculated on a proportionate
basis for each trading day of the relevant 30 trading day
observation period. The initial conversion rate for each $1,000
principal amount of notes is 26.6326 shares of our common
stock, subject to adjustment under certain circumstances. In
connection with the issuance of the 3.625% convertible senior
notes, UDR entered into a capped call transaction with respect
to its common stock. The convertible note and capped call
transaction, both of which expire September 2011, must be net
share settled. The maximum number of shares to be issued under
the convertible notes is 6.7 million shares, subject to
certain adjustment provisions. The capped call transaction
combines a purchased call option with a strike price of $37.548
with a written call option with a strike price of $43.806. These
transactions have no effect on the terms of the 3.625%
convertible senior notes by effectively increasing the initial
conversion price to $43.806 per share, representing a 40%
conversion premium. The net cost of $12.6 million of the
capped call transaction was included in stockholders
equity. |
|
(c) |
|
In March 2007, UDR sold $150 million aggregate principal
amount of 5.50% senior unsecured notes due April 2014 under
its medium-term note program. The net proceeds of approximately
$149 million were used for debt repayment. |
|
(d) |
|
Prior to December 15, 2030, upon the occurrence of
specified events, the notes will be convertible at the option of
the holder into cash and, in certain circumstances, shares of
UDRs common stock at an initial conversion price of
approximately 35.2988 shares per $1,000 principal amount of
notes. On or after December 15, 2030, the notes will be
convertible at any time prior to the second business day prior
to maturity at the option of the holder into cash, and, in
certain circumstances, shares of UDRs common stock at the
above initial conversion rate. The initial conversion rate is
subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. |
Basic earnings per common share is computed based upon the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the
period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed based upon
common shares outstanding plus the effect of dilutive stock
options and other potentially dilutive common stock equivalents.
The dilutive effect of stock options and other potentially
dilutive common stock equivalents is determined using the
treasury stock method based on UDRs average stock price.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and
diluted earnings per share for the periods presented,
(dollars in thousands, except per share data):

STATEMENTS (Continued)
The effect of the conversion of the operating partnership units,
Series A Out-Performance Partnership Shares, convertible
preferred stock, and convertible debt, is not dilutive and is
therefore not included in the above calculations.
If the operating partnership units were converted to common
stock, the additional shares of common stock outstanding for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2007 would be 7,765,772
and 7,982,809 weighted average common shares, and 8,742,297 and
8,747,834 weighted average common shares for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2006.
If the Series A Out-Performance Partnership Shares were
converted to common stock, the additional shares of common stock
outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30,
2007 would be 1,627,769 and 1,627,894 weighted average common
shares, respectively, and 1,764,662 weighted average common
shares for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006.
At June 30, 2007, if the measurement periods had ended on
that date, the Series C, D and E Out-Performance
Partnership Share program performance thresholds would not have
been met. Accordingly, no additional operating partnership units
would have been issued at that date.
At June 30, 2006, if the measurement periods had ended on
that date, the Series C and D Out-Performance Partnership
Share program performance thresholds would have been met.
Accordingly, 381,990 and 400,264 operating partnership units
would have been issued had the measurement periods ended at that
date; however, those units have been excluded in the calculation
of diluted earnings per share because their effect would be
anti-dilutive.
If the convertible preferred stock were converted to common
stock, the additional shares of common stock outstanding would
be 2,803,812 weighted average common shares for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006.

Commitments
UDR is committed to completing its wholly owned real estate
under development, which has an estimated cost to complete of
$436.0 million at June 30, 2007.
UDR is committed to completing its development joint venture
projects, which have an estimated cost to complete of
$204.4 million at June 30, 2007. The estimated cost to
complete consists of $43.5 million related to a
consolidated joint venture and $160.9 million related to
unconsolidated joint ventures in which UDR owns 49%. These
unconsolidated joint ventures are expected to be completed at
various times between the second quarter of 2008 and the third
quarter of 2010.
UDR has entered into four contracts to purchase apartment
communities upon their development completion. Provided that the
developer meets certain conditions, UDR will purchase these
communities for approximately $154 million. These apartment
communities are expected to be completed at various times
between the fourth quarter of 2007 and the first quarter of 2009.
Contingencies
Series C
Out-Performance Program
In May 2005, the stockholders of UDR approved a new
Out-Performance Program and the first series of new
Out-Performance Partnership Shares under the program are the
Series C Out-Performance Units (the Series C
Program) pursuant to which certain executive officers and
other key employees of UDR (the Series C
Participants) were given the opportunity to invest
indirectly in UDR by purchasing interests in UDR Out-Performance
III, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the
Series C LLC), the only asset of

Inc.

STATEMENTS (Continued)
which is a special class of partnership units of the Operating
Partnership (Series C Out-Performance Partnership
Shares or Series C OPPSs). The purchase
price for the Series C OPPSs was determined by the
Compensation Committee of UDRs board of directors to be
$750,000, assuming 100% participation, and was based upon the
advice of an independent valuation expert. UDRs
performance for the Series C Program will be measured over
the 36-month
period from June 1, 2005 to May 30, 2008.
The Series C Program is designed to provide participants
with the possibility of substantial returns on their investment
if the cumulative total return on UDRs common stock, as
measured by the cumulative amount of dividends paid plus share
price appreciation during the measurement period is at least the
equivalent of a 36% total return, or 12% annualized
(Minimum Return).
At the conclusion of the measurement period, if UDRs
cumulative total return satisfies these criteria, the
Series C LLC as holder of the Series C OPPSs will
receive (for the indirect benefit of the Series C Participants
as holders of interests in the Series C
LLC) distributions and allocations of income and loss from
the Operating Partnership equal to the distributions and
allocations that would be received on the number of
OP Units obtained by:
i. determining the amount by which the cumulative total
return of UDRs common stock over the measurement period
exceeds the Minimum Return (such excess being the Excess
Return);
ii. multiplying 2% of the Excess Return by UDRs
market capitalization (defined as the average number of shares
outstanding over the
36-month
period, including common stock, common stock equivalents and
OP Units); and
iii. dividing the number obtained in clause (ii) by
the market value of one share of UDRs common stock on the
valuation date, computed as the volume-weighted average price
per day of common stock for the 20 trading days immediately
preceding the valuation date.
For the Series C OPPSs, the number determined pursuant to
(ii) above is capped at 1% of market capitalization.
If, on the valuation date, the cumulative total return of
UDRs common stock does not meet the Minimum Return, then
the Series C Participants will forfeit their entire initial
investment.
Based on the results through June 30, 2007, no
Series C OPPSs would have been issued had the Program
terminated on that date. However, since the ultimate
determination of Series C OPPSs to be issued will not occur
until May 30, 2008, and the number of Series C OPPSs
is determinable only upon future events, the financial
statements do not reflect any impact for these events.
Accordingly, the contingently issuable Series C OPPSs will
only be included in basic earnings per share after the
measurement period has ended and the applicable hurdle has been
met. Furthermore, the Series C OPPSs will only be included
in common stock and common stock equivalents in the calculation
of diluted earnings per share after the hurdle has been met at
the end of the reporting period (if any), assuming the
measurement period ended at the end of the reporting period.
Series D
Out-Performance Program
In February 2006, the board of directors of UDR approved the
Series D Out-Performance Program (the Series D
Program) pursuant to which certain executive officers of
UDR (the Series D Participants) were given the
opportunity to invest indirectly in UDR by purchasing interests
in UDR Out-Performance IV, LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company (the Series D LLC), the only asset of
which is a special class of partnership units of the Operating
Partnership (Series D Out-Performance Partnership
Shares or Series D OPPSs). The
Series D Program is part of the New Out-Performance Program
approved by UDRs stockholders in May 2005. The
Series D LLC has agreed to sell 830,000 membership units to
certain members of UDRs senior management at a price of
$1.00 per unit. The aggregate purchase price of $830,000 for the

In February 2007, the board of directors of UDR approved the

Litigation
and Legal Matters
UDR is subject to various legal proceedings and claims arising
in the ordinary course of business. UDR cannot determine the
ultimate liability with respect to such legal proceedings and
claims at this time. UDR believes that such liability, to the
extent not provided for through insurance or otherwise, will not
have a material adverse effect on our financial condition,
results of operations or cash flow.
On July 27, 2007, UDR amended its existing
$500 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility to
increase the facility to $600 million and extend its
maturity to July 26, 2012. The credit facility was arranged
by Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC and J.P. Morgan
Securities, Inc. and was syndicated to 17 banks.
15
UDR,
Inc.
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
Under certain circumstances, UDR may increase the credit
facility to $750 million. Based on UDRs current
credit ratings, the credit facility carries an interest rate
equal to LIBOR plus a spread of 47.5 basis points, which
represents a 10 basis point reduction to the previous
unsecured revolver, and the facility fee remained at
15 basis points. Under a competitive bid feature and for so
long as UDR maintains an Investment Grade Rating, UDR has the
right to bid out 50% of the commitment amount and can bid out
100% of the commitment amount once per quarter.
During July 2007, UDR repurchased 320,200 shares of its
common stock at an average price of $27.12 per share.

development activity and capital expenditures, capital raising
activities, rent growth, occupancy, and rental expense growth.
Words such as expects, anticipates,
intends, plans, believes,
seeks, estimates, and variations of such
words and similar expressions are intended to identify such
forward-looking statements. Such statements involve known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause
the actual results, performance or achievements to be materially
different from the results of operations or plans expressed or
implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors
include, among other things, unanticipated adverse business
developments affecting us, or our properties, adverse changes in
the real estate markets and general and local economies and
business conditions. Although we believe that the assumptions
underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are
reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate, and
therefore such statements included in this Report may not prove
to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties
inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the
inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a
representation by us or any other person that the results or
conditions described in such statements or our objectives and
plans will be achieved.
The following factors, among others, could cause our future
results to differ materially from those expressed in the
forward-looking statements:
|
|
|
|
|
unfavorable changes in apartment market and economic conditions
that could adversely affect occupancy levels and rental rates,
|
|
|
|
the failure of acquisitions to achieve anticipated results,
|
|
|
|
possible difficulty in selling apartment communities,
|
|
|
|
the timing and closing of planned dispositions under agreement,
|
|
|
|
competitive factors that may limit our ability to lease
apartment homes or increase or maintain rents,
|
|
|
|
insufficient cash flow that could affect our debt financing and
create refinancing risk,
|
|
|
|
failure to generate sufficient revenue, which could impair our
debt service payments and distributions to stockholders,
|
|
|
|
development and construction risks that may impact our
profitability,
|
|
|
|
potential damage from natural disasters, including hurricanes
and other weather-related events, which could result in
substantial costs to us,
|
|
|
|
risks from extraordinary losses for which we may not have
insurance or adequate reserves,
|
|
|
|
uninsured losses due to insurance deductibles, self-insurance
retention, uninsured claims or casualties, or losses in excess
of applicable coverage,
|
|
|
|
delays in completing developments and
lease-ups on
schedule,
|
|
|
|
our failure to succeed in new markets,
|
|
|
|
changing interest rates, which could increase interest costs and
affect the market price of our securities,
|
|
|
|
potential liability for environmental contamination, which could
result in substantial costs to us,
|
|
|
|
the imposition of federal taxes if we fail to qualify as a REIT
under the Internal Revenue Code in any taxable year,
|
|
|
|
our internal control over financial reporting may not be
considered effective which could result in a loss of investor
confidence in our financial reports, and in turn have an adverse
effect on our stock price, and
|
|
|
|
changes in real estate tax laws, tax laws and other laws
affecting our business.

A discussion of these and other factors affecting our business
and prospects is set forth below in Part II, Item 1A.
Risk Factors. We encourage investors to review these risks

Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Liquidity is the ability to meet present and future financial
obligations either through operating cash flows, the sale or
maturity of existing assets, or by the acquisition of additional
funds through capital management. Both the coordination of asset
and liability maturities and effective capital management are
important to the maintenance of liquidity. Our primary source of
liquidity is our cash flow from operations as determined by
rental rates, occupancy levels, and operating expenses related
to our portfolio of apartment homes. We routinely use our
unsecured bank credit facility to temporarily fund certain
investing and financing activities prior to arranging for
longer-term financing. During the past several years, proceeds
from the sale of real estate have been used for both investing
and financing activities.
We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements
generally through net cash provided by operations and borrowings
under credit arrangements. We expect to meet certain long-term
liquidity requirements such as scheduled debt maturities, the
repayment of financing on development activities, and potential
property acquisitions, through long-term secured and unsecured
borrowings, the disposition of properties, and the issuance of
additional debt or equity securities. We believe that our net
cash provided by operations will continue to be adequate to meet
both operating requirements and the payment of dividends by the
company in accordance with REIT requirements in both the short-
and long-term. Likewise, the budgeted expenditures for
improvements and renovations of certain properties are expected
to be funded from property operations.
We have a shelf registration statement filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission which provides for the issuance of an
indeterminate amount of common stock, preferred stock, debt
securities, warrants, purchase contracts and units to facilitate
future financing activities in the public capital markets.
Access to capital markets is dependent on market conditions at
the time of issuance.
Future
Capital Needs
Future development expenditures are expected to be funded with
proceeds from the sale of property, with construction loans,
through joint ventures, the use of our unsecured revolving
credit facility, and, to a lesser extent, with cash flows
provided by operating activities. Acquisition activity in
strategic markets is expected to be largely financed through the
issuance of equity and debt securities, the issuance of
operating partnership units, the assumption or placement of
secured
and/or
unsecured debt, and by the reinvestment of proceeds from the
sale of properties.
During the remainder of 2007, we have approximately
$79.8 million of secured debt and $75.4 million of
unsecured debt maturing and we anticipate repaying that debt
with proceeds from borrowings under our secured or unsecured
credit facilities, the issuance of new unsecured debt securities
or equity, or from disposition proceeds.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our critical accounting policies are those having the most
impact on the reporting of our financial condition and results
and those requiring significant judgments and estimates. These
policies include those related to (1) capital expenditures,
(2) impairment of long-lived assets, and (3) real
estate investment properties. Our critical accounting policies
are described in more detail in the section entitled
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report
on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2006. There have been no
significant changes in our critical accounting policies from
those reported in our 2006 Annual Report on
Form 10-K.
With respect to these critical accounting policies, we believe
that the application of judgments and assessments is
consistently applied and produces financial information that
fairly depicts the results of operations for all periods
presented.
Statements
of Cash Flows
The following discussion explains the changes in net cash
provided by operating and financing activities and net cash used
in investing activities that are presented in our Consolidated
Statements of Cash Flows.
19
Operating
Activities
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, our cash flow
provided by operating activities was $117.9 million
compared to $97.1 million for the same period in 2006. The
increase in cash flow from operating activities resulted
primarily from the increase in property operating income from
our apartment community portfolio for the six months ended
June 30, 2007 (see discussion under Apartment
Community Operations).
Investing
Activities
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, net cash used in
investing activities was $176.0 million as compared to
$194.0 million for the same period in 2006. Changes in the
level of investing activities from period to period reflects our
strategy as it relates to our acquisition, capital expenditure,
development, and disposition programs, as well as the impact of
the capital market environment on these activities, all of which
are discussed in further detail below.
Acquisitions
During the six months ended June 30, 2007, we acquired nine
apartment communities with 1,599 apartment homes, three
parcels of land and one operating joint venture for an aggregate
consideration of $200.7 million. Our long-term strategic
plan is to achieve greater operating efficiencies by investing
in fewer, more concentrated markets. As a result, we have been
expanding our interests in the fast growing Southern California,
Florida, Texas, and Metropolitan Washington DC markets over the
past four years. During 2007, we plan to continue to channel new
investments into those markets that we believe will provide the
best investment returns. Markets will be targeted based upon
defined criteria including past performance, expected job
growth, current and anticipated housing supply and demand, the
ability to attract and support household formation and
opportunities to create value in real estate that exceeds our
invested capital.
Capital
Expenditures
In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States, we capitalize those expenditures related to
acquiring new assets, materially enhancing the value of an
existing asset, or substantially extending the useful life of an
existing asset. Expenditures necessary to maintain an existing
property in ordinary operating condition are expensed as
incurred.
During the first six months of 2007, we spent
$104.2 million or $1,503 per home on capital expenditures
for all of our communities, excluding development and commercial
properties. These capital improvements included turnover related
expenditures for floor coverings and appliances, other recurring
capital expenditures such as roofs, siding, parking lots, and
other non-revenue enhancing capital expenditures, which
aggregated $18.4 million or $266 per home. In addition,
revenue enhancing capital expenditures, kitchen and bath
upgrades, upgrades to HVAC equipment, and other extensive
exterior/interior upgrades totaled $43.4 million or $625
per home and major renovations totaled $42.4 million or
$612 per home for the six months ended June 30, 2007.

maintenance costs for all of our communities, excluding real

Total capital improvements increased $3.7 million or $149
per home for the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared
to the same period in 2006. This increase was partially
attributable to an additional $24.8 million of major
renovations at certain of our properties. These renovations may
include the re-wiring
and/or
re-plumbing of an entire building as well as major structural
changes
and/or
architectural revisions to existing buildings. The increase was
also attributable to an additional $6.6 million being
invested in recurring capital expenditures as compared to the
same period in 2006. These increases were offset by
$27.7 million less being invested in revenue enhancing
improvements compared to the same period in 2006. We will
continue to selectively add revenue enhancing improvements which
we believe will provide a return on investment substantially in
excess of our cost of capital. Recurring capital expenditures
during 2007 are currently expected to be approximately $610 per
home.
Development
Development activity is focused in core markets in which we have
strong operations in place. For the six months ended
June 30, 2007, we invested approximately $42.8 million
on development projects, an increase of $21.9 million from
$20.9 million for the same period in 2006.

The Addison Assemblage has not received final zoning approval
regarding the apartment home and retail mix.
In addition, we own nine parcels of land held for future
development aggregating $68.3 million at June 30, 2007.
Consolidated
Development Joint Ventures
In June 2006, we completed the formation of a development joint
venture that will invest approximately $138 million to
develop one apartment community with 298 apartment homes in
Marina del Rey, California. UDR is the financial partner and is
responsible for funding the costs of development and receives a
preferred return from 7% to 8.5% before our partner receives a
50% participation. Our initial investment was
$27.5 million. Under FASB Interpretation No. 46,
Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, this
venture has been consolidated into UDRs financial
statements. Our joint venture partner is the managing partner as
well as the developer, general contractor, and property manager.
The following consolidated joint venture project was under
development as of June 30, 2007:

Unconsolidated
Development Joint Ventures
In July 2006, we closed on a joint venture to develop a site in
Bellevue, Washington. At closing, we owned 49% of the
$135 million project that involves building a 400 home high
rise apartment building with ground floor retail. Our initial
investment was $5.7 million.
In November 2006, we closed on a joint venture site adjacent to
our Bellevue Plaza development in the central business district
of Bellevue, Washington. This project will include the
development of 271 apartment homes. Construction began in the
fourth quarter of 2006 and is scheduled for completion in 2008.
At closing, we owned 49% of the $97 million project. Our
initial investment was $10.0 million.
The following unconsolidated joint venture projects were under
development as of June 30, 2007 (budgeted cost amounts
include retail units):

Unconsolidated
Operating Joint Venture
In January 2007, we closed on a joint venture for a recently
completed 23-story, 166 apartment home high rise community in
the central business district of Bellevue, Washington. At
closing, UDR owned 49% of the $58 million project (subject
to a $34 million mortgage). Our initial investment was
$11.8 million.
22
Disposition
of Investments
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, UDR sold three
communities with a total of 725 apartment homes for a gross
consideration of $121.3 million, 22 condominiums from one
community with a total of 320 condominiums for a gross
consideration of $4.2 million, and one parcel of land for
$4.5 million. We recognized after-tax gains for financial
reporting purposes of $50.5 million on these sales.
Proceeds from the sales were used primarily to reduce debt.
During 2007, we plan to continue to pursue our strategy of
exiting markets where long-term growth prospects are limited and
redeploying capital into markets we believe will provide the
best investment returns. We intend to use the proceeds from 2007
dispositions to reduce debt, acquire communities, and fund
development activity.
Financing
Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months
ended June 30, 2007, was $58.8 million as compared to
$87.6 million for the same period in 2006. As part of the
plan to improve our balance sheet, we utilized proceeds from
dispositions to pay down existing debt and purchase new
properties.
The following is a summary of our financing activities for the
six months ended June 30, 2007:
|
|
|
|
|
Repaid $45.7 million of secured debt and $92.3 million
of unsecured debt.
|
|
|
|
Sold $150 million aggregate principal amount of
5.50% senior unsecured notes due April 2014 in March 2007
under our medium-term note program. The net proceeds of
approximately $149 million were used for debt repayment.
|
|
|
|
Redeemed 5,416,006 shares of our 8.60% Series B
Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock on May 29, 2007, the
redemption date, for a cash redemption price of $25 per share
plus accrued and unpaid dividends to the redemption date.
|
|
|
|
Sold $135 million, or 5,400,000 shares, of our 6.75%
Series G Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock in May 2007.
The shares have a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share and
will be redeemable at par at the option of UDR on or after
May 31, 2012. The net proceeds from the offering were used
to fund the redemption of all of the outstanding shares of our
8.60% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock.
|
|
|
|
Repurchased 1,131,000 shares of UDR common stock at an
average price per share of $28.42 under our 10 million
share repurchase program during the second quarter of 2007.
|
Credit
Facilities
We have four secured revolving credit facilities with Fannie Mae
with an aggregate commitment of $860 million. As of
June 30, 2007, $717.9 million was outstanding under
the Fannie Mae credit facilities leaving $142.1 million of
unused capacity. The Fannie Mae credit facilities are for an
initial term of ten years, bear interest at floating and fixed
rates, and can be extended for an additional five years at our
option. We have $584.2 million of the funded balance fixed
at a weighted average interest rate of 5.9% and the remaining
balance is currently at a weighted average variable rate of 5.8%.
On July 27, 2007, we amended and restated our existing
three-year $500 million senior unsecured revolving credit
facility with a maturity date of May 31, 2008 (which could
be extended for an additional year at our option) to increase
the facility to $600 million and to extend its maturity to
July 26, 2012. Under the terms of the $500 million
credit facility, we had the right to increase the credit
facility to $750 million under certain circumstances. Based
on our current credit ratings, the $500 million credit
facility carried an interest rate equal to LIBOR plus a spread
of 57.5 basis points. Under a competitive bid feature and
for so long as we maintain an Investment Grade Rating, we had
the right to bid out 50% of the commitment amount under the $500
million credit facility and to bid out 100% of the commitment
amount once per quarter. As of June 30, 2007,
$208.9 million was outstanding under the credit facility
leaving $291.1 million of unused capacity.
23
Under certain circumstances, we may increase the new
$600 million credit facility to $750 million. Based
on our current credit ratings, the new $600 million credit
facility carries an interest rate equal to LIBOR plus a spread
of 47.5 basis points, which represents a 10 basis point
reduction to the previous $500 million credit facility.
Under a competitive bid feature and for so long as we maintain
an Investment Grade Rating, we have the right under the new
$600 million credit facility to bid out 50% of the
commitment amount and we can bid out 100% of the commitment
amount once per quarter.
The Fannie Mae credit facility and the bank revolving credit
facility are subject to customary financial covenants and
limitations.

Funds
from Operations
Funds from operations, or FFO, is defined as net income
(computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of
depreciable property, premiums or original issuance costs
associated with preferred stock redemptions, plus real estate
depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for
unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We compute FFO
for all periods presented in accordance with the recommendations
set forth by the National Association of Real Estate Investment
Trusts (NAREIT) April 1, 2002 White
Paper. We consider FFO in evaluating property acquisitions and
our operating performance, and believe that FFO should be
considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income
and cash flow as a measure of our activities in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. FFO does not represent
cash generated from operating activities in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles and is not necessarily
indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.
Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles implicitly assumes
that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over
time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen
or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and
analysts have considered the presentation of operating results
for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to
be insufficient by themselves. Thus, NAREIT created FFO as a
supplemental measure of REIT operating performance and defines
FFO as net income (computed in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States), excluding
gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable property, plus
depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for
unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The use of FFO,
combined with the required presentations, has been fundamentally
beneficial, improving the understanding of operating results of
REITs among the investing public and making comparisons of REIT
operating results more meaningful. We generally consider FFO to
be a useful measure for reviewing our comparative operating and
financial performance (although FFO should be reviewed in
conjunction with net income which remains the primary measure of
performance) because by excluding gains or losses related to
sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets and
excluding real estate asset depreciation and amortization, FFO
can help one compare the operating performance of a
companys real estate between periods or as compared to
different companies. We believe that FFO is the best measure of
economic profitability for real estate investment trusts.

In the computation of diluted FFO, OP Units,
out-performance partnership shares, convertible debt, and the
shares of Series E Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock
are dilutive; therefore, they are included in the diluted share
count.
RE3
gain on sales, net of taxes, is defined as net sales proceeds
less a tax provision and the gross investment basis of the asset
before accumulated depreciation. We consider FFO with
RE3
gain on sales, net of taxes, to be a meaningful supplemental
measure of performance because the short-term use of funds
produce a profit that differs from the traditional long-term
investment in real estate for REITs.

FFO also does not represent cash generated from operating
activities in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, and therefore should not be considered an
alternative to net cash flows from operating activities, as
determined by generally accepted accounting principles, as a
measure of liquidity. Additionally, it is not necessarily
indicative of cash availability to fund cash needs.
A presentation of cash flow metrics based on generally accepted
accounting principles is as follows for the three and six months
ended June 30, (dollars in thousands):

Results
of Operations
The following discussion includes the results of both continuing
and discontinued operations for the periods presented.
Net
Income Available to Common Stockholders
Net income available to common stockholders was
$0.8 million ($0.01 per diluted share) for the three months
ended June 30, 2007, compared to $28.3 million ($0.21
per diluted share) for the same period in the prior year. The
decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2007, when
compared to the same period in
26
2006, resulted primarily from the following items, all of which
are discussed in further detail elsewhere within this Report:
|
|
|
|
|
a $24.6 million decrease in gains recognized from the sale
of depreciable property,
|
|
|
|
a $5.3 million increase in real estate depreciation and
amortization expense,
|
|
|
|
a $2.8 million increase in general and administrative
expense, and
|
|
|
|
a $1.0 million increase in real estate taxes and insurance
expense.
|
These decreases in income were partially offset by a
$3.3 million decrease in interest expense, a
$1.4 million decrease in personnel costs, a
$1.0 million decrease in utilities expense, and a
$0.5 million increase in apartment community operating
results during the three months ended June 30, 2007 when
compared to the same period in 2006.
Net income available to common stockholders was
$28.8 million ($0.21 per diluted share) for the six months
ended June 30, 2007, compared to $36.5 million ($0.27
per diluted share) for the same period in the prior year. The
decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2007, when
compared to the same period in 2006, resulted primarily from the
following items, all of which are discussed in further detail
elsewhere within this Report:
|
|
|
|
|
a $10.8 million increase in real estate depreciation and
amortization expense, and
|
|
|
|
a $5.8 million increase in general and administrative
expense.
|
These decreases in income were partially offset by a
$3.8 million increase in apartment community operating
results, a $3.2 million decrease in interest expense, and a
$1.6 million increase in gains recognized from the sale of
depreciable property during the first six months of 2007 when
compared to the same period in 2006.
Apartment
Community Operations
Our net income is primarily generated from the operation of our
apartment communities. The following table summarizes the

Same
Communities
For the three months ended June 30, 2007, our same
communities (those communities acquired, developed, and
stabilized prior to June 30, 2006, and held on
June 30, 2007, which consisted of 59,531 apartment homes)
provided 88% of our property operating income.
For the second quarter of 2007, same community property
operating income increased 6.5% or $6.3 million compared to
the same period in 2006. The increase in property operating
income was primarily attributable to a 5.3% or $8.1 million
increase in revenues from rental and other income and a 3.3% or
$1.8 million increase in operating expenses. The increase
in revenues from rental and other income was primarily driven by
a 4.6% or $7.0 million increase in rental rates and a 16.2%
or $1.8 million increase in reimbursement income and fee
income. These increases were partially offset by a 6.9% or
$0.5 million increase in vacancy loss and a 16.1% or
$0.1 million increase in bad debt expense. Physical
occupancy decreased 0.2% to 94.7%.
The increase in property operating expenses was primarily driven
by a 90.6% or $1.8 million increase in insurance costs and
a 7.1% or $0.6 million increase in repair and maintenance
expense that was partially offset by a 2.4% or $0.4 million
decrease in real estate taxes and a 5.6% or $0.3 million
decrease in administrative and marketing costs.
As a result of the percentage changes in property rental income
and property operating expenses, the operating margin (property
operating income divided by property rental income) increased
0.7% to 65.2%.
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, our same
communities provided 88% of our property operating income. Same
community property operating income increased 6.7% or
$12.8 million compared to the same period in 2006. The
increase in property operating income was primarily attributable
to a 4.9% or $15.0 million increase in revenues from rental
and other income and a 2.0% or $2.2 million increase in
operating expenses. The increase in revenues from rental and
other income was primarily driven by a 4.8% or
$14.7 million increase in rental rates and a 14.2% or
$3.1 million increase in reimbursement income and fee
income. These increases were partially offset by a 12.9% or
$2.0 million increase in vacancy loss, a 44.3% or
$0.5 million increase in bad debt expense, and a 5.7% or
$0.3 million increase in concession expense. Physical
occupancy decreased 0.5% to 94.4%.
The increase in property operating expenses was primarily driven
by a 4.4% or $1.2 million increase in personnel expense, a
23.6% or $1.2 million increase in insurance expense, and a
4.2% or $0.7 million increase in repair and maintenance
expense. These increases were partially offset by a 6.5% or
$0.6 million decrease in administrative and marketing costs
and a 1.0% or $0.3 million decrease in real estate taxes.
28
As a result of the percentage changes in property rental income
and property operating expenses, the operating margin increased
1.0% to 64.7%.
Non-Mature
Communities
The remaining 12% or $28.5 million of our property
operating income during the six months ended June 30, 2007,
was generated from communities that we classify as
non-mature communities. UDRs non-mature
communities consist primarily of communities acquired or
developed in 2006 and 2007, sold properties, redevelopment
properties, properties classified as real estate held for
disposition and condominium properties.
Real
Estate Depreciation and Amortization
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, real
estate depreciation and amortization on both continuing and
discontinued operations increased 9.0% or $5.3 million and
9.1% or $10.8 million compared to the same period in 2006,
primarily due to the significant increase in per home
acquisition cost compared to the existing portfolio and other
capital expenditures.
Interest
Expense
For the three months ended June 30, 2007, interest expense
on both continuing and discontinued operations decreased 7.2% or
$3.3 million compared to the same period in 2006. For the
three months ended June 30, 2007, the weighted average
amount of debt outstanding increased 6.7% or $220.5 million
compared to the same period in 2006 and the weighted average
interest decreased from 5.5% in 2006 to 5.3% in 2007. The
weighted average amount of debt outstanding during 2007 is
slightly higher than 2006 as acquisition costs in 2007 have been
funded, in most part, by the issuance of debt. The decrease in
weighted average interest rate during 2007 reflects short-term
bank borrowings and variable rate debt that had lower interest
rates in 2007 when compared to the same period in 2006.
For the six months ended June 30, 2007, interest expense on
both continuing and discontinued operations decreased 3.6% or
$3.2 million compared to the same period in 2006. For the
six months ended June 30, 2007, the weighted average amount
of debt outstanding increased 6.8% or $222.2 million
compared to the same period in 2006 and the weighted average
interest rate decreased from 5.5% in 2006 to 5.3% in 2007. The
weighted average amount of debt outstanding during 2007 is
slightly higher than 2006 as acquisition costs in 2007 have been
funded, in most part, by the issuance of debt. The decrease in
the weighted average interest rate during 2007 reflects
short-term bank borrowings and variable rate debt that had lower
interest rates in 2007 when compared to the same period in 2006.
General
and Administrative
For the three months ended June 30, 2007, general and
administrative expenses increased $2.8 million or 40.5%
compared to the same period in 2006. For the six months ended
June 30, 2007, general and administrative expenses
increased $5.8 million or 42.9% compared to the same period
in 2006. These increases were due to a number of factors,
including increases in personnel costs, incentive compensation
and legal and professional fees.
Gains on
the Sales of Land and Depreciable Property
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, we
recognized after-tax gains for financial reporting purposes of
$8.9 million and $50.5 million compared to
$33.5 million and $48.8 million for the comparable
period in 2006. Changes in the level of gains recognized from
period to period reflect the changing level of our divestiture
activity from period to period, as well as the extent of gains
related to specific properties sold.
Inflation
We believe that the direct effects of inflation on our
operations have been immaterial. While inflation primarily
impacts our results through wage pressures, utilities and
material costs, substantially all of our leases are for a term
of one year or less, which generally enables us to compensate
for inflationary effects by
29
increasing rents. Although extreme growth in energy prices could
have a negative impact on our residents and their ability to
absorb rent increases, this has not had a material impact on our
results.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or
are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our
financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or
expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures
or capital resources that are material.
|
|
Item 3.
|
QUANTITATIVE
AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
|
We are exposed to interest rate changes associated with our
unsecured credit facility and other variable rate debt as well
as refinancing risk on our fixed rate debt. UDRs
involvement with derivative financial instruments is limited and
we do not expect to use them for trading or other speculative
purposes. In prior periods, UDR had used derivative instruments
solely to manage its exposure to interest rates.
See our Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2006 Item 7A.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
for a more complete discussion of our interest rate sensitive
assets and liabilities. As of June 30, 2007, our market
risk has not changed materially from the amounts reported on our
Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2006.
|
|
Item 4.
|
CONTROLS
AND PROCEDURES
|
As of June 30, 2007, we carried out an evaluation, under
the supervision and with the participation of our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the
effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure
controls and procedures. Our disclosure controls and procedures
are designed with the objective of ensuring that information
required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the
SECs rules and forms. Based on this evaluation, our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our
disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely
alerting them to material information required to be included in
our periodic SEC reports. In addition, our Chief Executive
Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that during
the quarter ended June 30, 2007, there has been no change
in our internal control over financial reporting that has
materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Our
internal control over financial reporting is designed with the
objective of providing reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of our financial reporting and preparation of
financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles.
It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is
based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of
future events, and there can be no assurance that any design
will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential
future conditions, regardless of how remote. However, our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded
that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective under
circumstances where our disclosure controls and procedures
should reasonably be expected to operate effectively.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
There are many factors that affect our business and our results
of operations, some of which are beyond our control. The
following is a description of important factors that may cause
our actual results of operations in future periods to differ
materially from those currently expected or discussed in
forward-looking statements set forth in this Report relating to
our financial results, operations and business prospects. Except
as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any
such forward-looking statements to reflect events or
circumstances after the date on which it is made.
Unfavorable Changes in Apartment Market and Economic
Conditions Could Adversely Affect Occupancy Levels and Rental
Rates. Market and economic conditions in the
metropolitan areas in which we operate may significantly affect
our occupancy levels and rental rates and, therefore, our
profitability. Factors that may adversely affect these
conditions include the following:
|
|
|
|
|
a reduction in jobs and other local economic downturns,
|
|
|
|
declines in mortgage interest rates, making alternative housing
more affordable,
|
|
|
|
government or builder incentives which enable first time
homebuyers to put little or no money down, making alternative
housing decisions easier to make,
|
|
|
|
oversupply of, or reduced demand for, apartment homes,
|
|
|
|
declines in household formation, and
|
|
|
|
rent control or stabilization laws, or other laws regulating
rental housing, which could prevent us from raising rents to
offset increases in operating costs.
|
The strength of the United States economy has become
increasingly susceptible to global events and threats of
terrorism. At the same time, productivity enhancements and the
increased exportation of labor have resulted in limited job
growth despite an improving economy. Continued weakness in job
creation, or any worsening of current economic conditions,
generally and in our principal market areas, could have a
material adverse effect on our occupancy levels, our rental
rates and our ability to strategically acquire and dispose of
apartment communities. This may impair our ability to satisfy
our financial obligations and pay distributions to our
stockholders.
New Acquisitions, Developments and Condominium Projects May
Not Achieve Anticipated Results. We intend to
continue to selectively acquire apartment communities that meet
our investment criteria and to develop apartment communities for
rental operations, to convert properties into condominiums and
to develop condominium projects. Our acquisition, development
and condominium activities and their success are subject to the
following risks:
|
|
|
|
|
an acquired apartment community may fail to perform as we
expected in analyzing our investment, or a significant exposure
related to the acquired property may go undetected during our
due diligence procedures,
|
|
|
|
when we acquire an apartment community, we often invest
additional amounts in it with the intention of increasing
profitability. These additional investments may not produce the
anticipated improvements in profitability,
|
|
|
|
new developments may not achieve pro forma rents or occupancy
levels, or problems with construction or local building codes
may delay initial occupancy dates for all or a portion of a
development community, and
|
|
|
|
an over supply of condominiums in a given market may cause a
decrease in the prices at which we expect to sell condominium
properties.
|
31
Possible Difficulty of Selling Apartment Communities Could
Limit Operational and Financial Flexibility. We
periodically dispose of apartment communities that no longer
meet our strategic objectives, but market conditions could
change and purchasers may not be willing to pay prices
acceptable to us. A weak market may limit our ability to change
our portfolio promptly in response to changing economic
conditions. Furthermore, a significant portion of the proceeds
from our overall property sales may be held by intermediaries in
order for some sales to qualify as like-kind exchanges under
Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code, so that any
related capital gain can be deferred for federal income tax
purposes. As a result, we may not have immediate access to all
of the cash flow generated from our property sales. In addition,
federal tax laws limit our ability to profit on the sale of
communities that we have owned for fewer than four years, and
this limitation may prevent us from selling communities when
market conditions are favorable.
Increased Competition Could Limit Our Ability to Lease
Apartment Homes or Increase or Maintain
Rents. Our apartment communities compete with
numerous housing alternatives in attracting residents, including
other apartment communities and single-family rental homes, as
well as owner occupied single- and multi-family homes.
Competitive housing in a particular area could adversely affect
our ability to lease apartment homes and increase or maintain
rents.
Insufficient Cash Flow Could Affect Our Debt Financing and
Create Refinancing Risk. We are subject to the
risks normally associated with debt financing, including the
risk that our operating income and cash flow will be
insufficient to make required payments of principal and
interest, or could restrict our borrowing capacity under our
line of credit due to debt covenant restraints. Sufficient cash
flow may not be available to make all required principal
payments and still satisfy our distribution requirements to
maintain our status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes,
and the full limits of our line of credit may not be available
to us if our operating performance falls outside the constraints
of our debt covenants. Additionally, we are likely to need to
refinance substantially all of our outstanding debt as it
matures. We may not be able to refinance existing debt, or the
terms of any refinancing may not be as favorable as the terms of
the existing debt, which could create pressures to sell assets
or to issue additional equity when we would otherwise not choose
to do so. In addition, our failure to comply with our debt
covenants could result in a requirement to repay our
indebtedness prior to its maturity, which could have an adverse
effect on our cash flow and increase our financing costs.
Failure to Generate Sufficient Revenue Could Impair Debt
Service Payments and Distributions to
Stockholders. If our apartment communities do not
generate sufficient net rental income to meet rental expenses,
our ability to make required payments of interest and principal
on our debt securities and to pay distributions to our
stockholders will be adversely affected. The following factors,
among others, may affect the net rental income generated by our
apartment communities:
|
|
|
|
|
the national and local economies,
|
|
|
|
local real estate market conditions, such as an oversupply of
apartment homes,
|
|
|
|
tenants perceptions of the safety, convenience, and
attractiveness of our communities and the neighborhoods where
they are located,
|
|
|
|
our ability to provide adequate management, maintenance and
insurance, and
|
|
|
|
rental expenses, including real estate taxes and utilities.
|
Expenses associated with our investment in a community, such as
debt service, real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance
costs, are generally not reduced when circumstances cause a
reduction in rental income from that community. If a community
is mortgaged to secure payment of debt and we are unable to make
the mortgage payments, we could sustain a loss as a result of
foreclosure on the community or the exercise of other remedies
by the mortgage holder.
Debt Level May Be Increased. Our current
debt policy does not contain any limitations on the level of
debt that we may incur, although our ability to incur debt is
limited by covenants in our senior indenture and our bank and
other credit agreements. We manage our debt to be in compliance
with these debt covenants, but subject to compliance with these
covenants, we may increase the amount of our debt at any time
without a concurrent improvement in our ability to service the
additional debt.
32
Financing May Not Be Available and Could Be
Dilutive. Our ability to execute our business
strategy depends on our access to an appropriate blend of debt
financing, including unsecured lines of credit and other forms
of secured and unsecured debt, and equity financing, including
common and preferred equity. Debt or equity financing may not be
available in sufficient amounts, or on favorable terms or at
all. If we issue additional equity securities to finance
developments and acquisitions instead of incurring debt, the
interests of our existing stockholders could be diluted.
Development and Construction Risks Could Impact Our
Profitability. We intend to continue to develop
and construct apartment communities. Development activities may
be conducted through wholly owned affiliated companies or
through joint ventures with unaffiliated parties. Our
development and construction activities may be exposed to the
following risks:
|
|
|
|
|
we may be unable to obtain, or face delays in obtaining,
necessary zoning, land-use, building, occupancy and other
required governmental permits and authorizations, which could
result in increased development costs and could require us to
abandon our activities entirely with respect to a project for
which we are unable to obtain permits or authorizations,
|
|
|
|
if we are unable to find joint venture partners to help fund the
development of a community or otherwise obtain acceptable
financing for the developments, our development capacity may be
limited,
|
|
|
|
we may abandon development opportunities that we have already
begun to explore, and we may fail to recover expenses already
incurred in connection with exploring such opportunities,
|
|
|
|
we may be unable to complete construction and
lease-up of
a community on schedule, or incur development or construction
costs that exceed our original estimates, and we may be unable
to charge rents that would compensate for any increase in such
costs,
|
|
|
|
occupancy rates and rents at a newly developed community may
fluctuate depending on a number of factors, including market and
economic conditions, preventing us from meeting our
profitability goals for that community, and
|
|
|
|
when we sell to third parties homes or properties that we
developed or renovated, we may be subject to warranty or
construction defect claims that are uninsured or exceed the
limits of our insurance.
|
Construction costs have been increasing in our existing markets,
and the costs of upgrading acquired communities have, in some
cases, exceeded our original estimates. We may experience
similar cost increases in the future. Our inability to charge
rents that will be sufficient to offset the effects of any
increases in these costs may impair our profitability.
Some Potential Losses Are Not Covered by
Insurance. We have a comprehensive insurance
program covering our property and operating activities. We
believe the policy specifications and insured limits of these
policies are adequate and appropriate. There are, however,
certain types of extraordinary losses for which we may not have
insurance. Accordingly, we may sustain uninsured losses due to
insurance deductibles, self-insured retention, uninsured claims
or casualties, or losses in excess of applicable coverage.
We may not be able to renew insurance coverage in an adequate
amount or at reasonable prices. In addition, insurance companies
may no longer offer coverage against certain types of losses,
such as losses due to terrorist acts and mold, or, if offered,
these types of insurance may be prohibitively expensive. If an
uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occur, we
could lose all or a portion of the capital we have invested in a
property, as well as the anticipated future revenue from the
property. In such an event, we might nevertheless remain
obligated for any mortgage debt or other financial obligations
related to the property. Material losses in excess of insurance
proceeds may occur in the future. If one or more of our
significant properties were to experience a catastrophic loss,
it could seriously disrupt our operations, delay revenue and
result in large expenses to repair or rebuild the property. Such
events could adversely affect our cash flow and ability to make
distributions to stockholders.
33
Failure to Succeed in New Markets May Limit Our
Growth. We may from time to time make
acquisitions outside of our existing market areas if appropriate
opportunities arise. We may be exposed to a variety of risks if
we choose to enter new markets, and we may not be able to
operate successfully in new markets. These risks include, among
others:
|
|
|
|
|
inability to accurately evaluate local apartment market
conditions and local economies,
|
|
|
|
inability to obtain land for development or to identify
appropriate acquisition opportunities,
|
|
|
|
inability to hire and retain key personnel, and
|
|
|
|
lack of familiarity with local governmental and permitting
procedures.
|
Changing Interest Rates Could Increase Interest Costs and
Adversely Affect Our Cash Flow and the Market Price of Our
Securities. We currently have, and expect to
incur in the future, interest-bearing debt at rates that vary
with market interest rates. As of June 30, 2007, we had
approximately $449.9 million of variable rate indebtedness
outstanding, which constitutes approximately 13% of our total
outstanding indebtedness as of such date. An increase in
interest rates would increase our interest expenses to the
extent our variable rate debt is not hedged effectively, and it
would increase the costs of refinancing existing indebtedness
and of issuing new debt. Accordingly, higher interest rates
could adversely affect cash flow and our ability to service our
debt and to make distributions to security holders. In addition,
an increase in market interest rates may lead our security
holders to demand a higher annual yield, which could adversely
affect the market price of our common and preferred stock and
debt securities.
Risk of Inflation/Deflation. Substantial
inflationary or deflationary pressures could have a negative
effect on rental rates and property operating expenses.
Limited Investment Opportunities Could Adversely Affect Our
Growth. We expect that other real estate
investors will compete with us to acquire existing properties
and to develop new properties. These competitors include
insurance companies, pension and investment funds, developer
partnerships, investment companies and other apartment REITs.
This competition could increase prices for properties of the
type that we would likely pursue, and our competitors may have
greater resources than we do. As a result, we may not be able to
make attractive investments on favorable terms, which could
adversely affect our growth.
Failure to Integrate Acquired Communities and New Personnel
Could Create Inefficiencies. To grow
successfully, we must be able to apply our experience in
managing our existing portfolio of apartment communities to a
larger number of properties. In addition, we must be able to
integrate new management and operations personnel as our
organization grows in size and complexity. Failures in either
area will result in inefficiencies that could adversely affect
our expected return on our investments and our overall
profitability.
Interest Rate Hedging Contracts May Be Ineffective and May
Result in Material Charges. From time to time
when we anticipate issuing debt securities, we may seek to limit
our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates during the period
prior to the pricing of the securities by entering into interest
rate hedging contracts. We may do this to increase the
predictability of our financing costs. Also, from time to time
we may rely on interest rate hedging contracts to limit our
exposure under variable rate debt to unfavorable changes in
market interest rates. If the terms of new debt securities are
not within the parameters of, or market interest rates fall
below that which we incur under a particular interest rate
hedging contract, the contract is ineffective. Furthermore, the
settlement of interest rate hedging contracts has involved and
may in the future involve material charges.
Potential Liability for Environmental Contamination Could
Result in Substantial Costs. Under various
federal, state and local environmental laws, as a current or
former owner or operator of real estate, we could be required to
investigate and remediate the effects of contamination of
currently or formerly owned real estate by hazardous or toxic
substances, often regardless of our knowledge of or
responsibility for the contamination and solely by virtue of our
current or former ownership or operation of the real estate. In
addition, we could
34
be held liable to a governmental authority or to third parties
for property damage and for investigation and
clean-up
costs incurred in connection with the contamination. These costs
could be substantial, and in many cases environmental laws
create liens in favor of governmental authorities to secure
their payment. The presence of such substances or a failure to
properly remediate any resulting contamination could materially
and adversely affect our ability to borrow against, sell or rent
an affected property.
We Would Incur Adverse Tax Consequences if We Fail to Qualify
as a REIT. We have elected to be taxed as a REIT
under the Internal Revenue Code. Our qualification as a REIT
requires us to satisfy numerous requirements, some on an annual
and quarterly basis, established under highly technical and
complex Internal Revenue Code provisions for which there are
only limited judicial or administrative interpretations, and
involves the determination of various factual matters and
circumstances not entirely within our control. We intend that
our current organization and method of operation enable us to
continue to qualify as a REIT, but we may not so qualify or we
may not be able to remain so qualified in the future. In
addition, U.S. federal income tax laws governing REITs and
other corporations and the administrative interpretations of
those laws may be amended at any time, potentially with
retroactive effect. Future legislation, new regulations,
administrative interpretations or court decisions could
adversely affect our ability to qualify as a REIT or adversely
affect our stockholders.
If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we would be
subject to federal income tax (including any applicable
alternative minimum tax) on our taxable income at regular
corporate rates, and would not be allowed to deduct dividends
paid to our stockholders in computing our taxable income. Also,
unless the Internal Revenue Service granted us relief under
certain statutory provisions, we would be disqualified from
treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the
year in which we first failed to qualify. The additional tax
liability from the failure to qualify as a REIT would reduce or
eliminate the amount of cash available for investment or
distribution to our stockholders. This would likely have a
significant adverse effect on the value of our securities and
our ability to raise additional capital. In addition, we would
no longer be required to make distributions to our stockholders.
Even if we continue to qualify as a REIT, we will continue to be
subject to certain federal, state and local taxes on our income
and property.
We May Conduct a Portion of Our Business Through Taxable REIT
Subsidiaries, Which are Subject to Certain Tax
Risks. We have established several taxable REIT
subsidiaries. Despite our qualification as a REIT, our taxable
REIT subsidiaries must pay income tax on their taxable income.
In addition, we must comply with various tests to continue to
qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, and our
income from and investments in our taxable REIT subsidiaries
generally do not constitute permissible income and investments
for these tests. While we will attempt to ensure that our
dealings with our taxable REIT subsidiaries will not adversely
affect our REIT qualification, we cannot provide assurance that
we will successfully achieve that result. Furthermore, we may be
subject to a 100% penalty tax, we may jeopardize our ability to
retain future gains on real property sales, or our taxable REIT
subsidiaries may be denied deductions, to the extent our
dealings with our taxable REIT subsidiaries are not deemed to be
arms length in nature or are otherwise not respected.
Certain Property Transfers May Generate Prohibited
Transaction Income, Resulting in a Penalty Tax on Gain
Attributable to the Transaction. From time to
time, we may transfer or otherwise dispose of some of our
properties. Under the Internal Revenue Code, any gain resulting
from transfers of properties that we hold as inventory or
primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of
business would be treated as income from a prohibited
transaction subject to a 100% penalty tax. Since we acquire
properties for investment purposes, we do not believe that our
occasional transfers or disposals of property are prohibited
transactions. However, whether property is held for investment
purposes is a question of fact that depends on all the facts and
circumstances surrounding the particular transaction. The
Internal Revenue Service may contend that certain transfers or
disposals of properties by us are prohibited transactions. If
the Internal Revenue Service were to argue successfully that a
transfer or disposition of property constituted a prohibited
transaction, then we would be required to pay a 100% penalty tax
on any gain allocable to us from the prohibited transaction and
we may jeopardize our ability to retain future gains on real
property sales. In addition, income from a
35
prohibited transaction might adversely affect our ability to
satisfy the income tests for qualification as a REIT for federal
income tax purposes.
Changes in Market Conditions and Volatility of Stock Prices
Could Adversely Affect the Market Price of Our Common
Stock. The stock markets, including the New York
Stock Exchange, on which we list our common shares, have
experienced significant price and volume fluctuations. As a
result, the market price of our common stock could be similarly
volatile, and investors in our common stock may experience a
decrease in the value of their shares, including decreases
unrelated to our operating performance or prospects.
Property Ownership Through Joint Ventures May Limit Our
Ability to Act Exclusively in Our Interest. We
have in the past and may in the future develop and acquire
properties in joint ventures with other persons or entities when
we believe circumstances warrant the use of such structures. If
we use such a structure, we could become engaged in a dispute
with one or more of our joint venture partners that might affect
our ability to operate a jointly-owned property. Moreover, joint
venture partners may have business, economic or other objectives
that are inconsistent with our objectives, including objectives
that relate to the appropriate timing and terms of any sale or
refinancing of a property. In some instances, joint venture
partners may have competing interests in our markets that could
create conflicts of interest.
Real Estate Tax and Other Laws. Generally we
do not directly pass through costs resulting from compliance
with or changes in real estate tax laws to residential property
tenants. We also do not generally pass through increases in
income, service or other taxes, to tenants under leases. These
costs may adversely affect funds from operations and the ability
to make distributions to stockholders. Similarly, compliance
with or changes in (i) laws increasing the potential
liability for environmental conditions existing on properties or
the restrictions on discharges or other conditions or
(ii) rent control or rent stabilization laws or other laws
regulating housing, such as the Americans with Disabilities Act
of 1990 and the Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988, may result
in significant unanticipated expenditures, which would adversely
affect funds from operations and the ability to make
distributions to stockholders.
Risk of Earthquake Damage. Certain of our West
Coast communities are located in the general vicinity of active
earthquake faults. An earthquake could cause damage or losses
greater than insured levels. In the event of a loss in excess of
insured limits, we could lose our capital invested in the
affected community, as well as anticipated future revenue from
that community. We would also continue to be obligated to repay
any mortgage indebtedness or other obligations related to the
community. Any such loss could materially and adversely affect
our business and our financial condition and results of
operations.
Insurance coverage for earthquakes is expensive due to limited
industry capacity. As a result, we may experience shortages in
desired coverage levels if market conditions are such that
insurance is not available.
Terrorist Attacks May Have an Adverse Effect on Our Business
and Operating Results and Could Decrease the Value of Our
Assets. Terrorist attacks and other acts of
violence or war could have a material adverse effect on our
business and operating results. Attacks that directly impact one
or more of our apartment communities could significantly affect
our ability to operate those communities and thereby impair our
ability to achieve our expected results. Further, our insurance
coverage may not cover any losses caused by a terrorist attack.
In addition, the adverse effects that such violent acts and
threats of future attacks could have on the U.S. economy could
similarly have a material adverse effect on our business and
results of operations.
Any Weaknesses Identified in Our Internal Control Over
Financial Reporting Could Have an Adverse Effect on Our Stock
Price. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act
of 2002 requires us to evaluate and report on our internal
report over financial reporting. If we identify one or more
material weaknesses in our internal control over financial
reporting, we could lose investor confidence in the accuracy and
completeness of our financial reports, which in turn could have
an adverse effect on our stock price.
Maryland Law May Limit the Ability of a Third Party to
Acquire Control of Us, Which May Not be in Our
Stockholders Best Interests. Maryland
business statutes may limit the ability of a third party to
acquire
36
control of us. As a Maryland corporation, we are subject to
various Maryland laws which may have the effect of discouraging
offers to acquire our company and of increasing the difficulty
of consummating any such offers, even if our acquisition would
be in our stockholders best interests. The Maryland
General Corporation Law restricts mergers and other business
combination transactions between us and any person who acquires
beneficial ownership of shares of our stock representing 10% or
more of the voting power without our board of directors
prior approval. Any such business combination transaction could
not be completed until five years after the person acquired such
voting power, and generally only with the approval of
stockholders representing 80% of all votes entitled to be cast
and
662/3%
of the votes entitled to be cast, excluding the interested
stockholder, or upon payment of a fair price. Maryland law also
provides generally that a person who acquires shares of our
equity stock that represents 10% (and certain higher levels) of
the voting power in electing directors will have no voting
rights unless approved by a vote of two-thirds of the shares
eligible to vote.
Limitations on Share Ownership and Limitations on the Ability
of Our Stockholders to Effect a Change in Control of Our Company
May Prevent Takeovers That are Beneficial to Our
Stockholders. One of the requirements for
maintenance of our qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal
income tax purposes is that no more than 50% in value of our
outstanding capital stock may be owned by five or fewer
individuals, including entities specified in the Internal
Revenue Code, during the last half of any taxable year. Our
charter contains ownership and transfer restrictions relating to
our stock primarily to assist us in complying with this and
other REIT ownership requirements; however, the restrictions may
have the effect of preventing a change of control, which does
not threaten REIT status. These restrictions include a provision
that generally limits ownership by any person of more than 9.9%
of the value of our outstanding equity stock, unless our board
of directors exempts the person from such ownership limitation,
provided that any such exemption shall not allow the person to
exceed 13% of the value of our outstanding equity stock. These
provisions may have the effect of delaying, deferring or
preventing someone from taking control of us, even though a
change of control might involve a premium price for our
stockholders or might otherwise be in our stockholders
best interests.
Under the terms of our shareholder rights plan, our board of
directors can, in effect, prevent a person or group from
acquiring more than 15% of the outstanding shares of our common
stock. Unless our board of directors approves the persons
purchase, after that person acquires more than 15% of our
outstanding common stock, all other stockholders will have the
right to purchase securities from us at a price that is less
than their then fair market value. Purchases by other
stockholders would substantially reduce the value and influence
of the shares of our common stock owned by the acquiring person.
Our board of directors, however, can prevent the shareholder
rights plan from operating in this manner. This gives our board
of directors significant discretion to approve or disapprove a
persons efforts to acquire a large interest in us.
|
|
Item 2.
|
UNREGISTERED
SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
|
In February 2006, our Board of Directors authorized a
10 million share repurchase program. This program
authorizes the repurchase of our common stock in open market
purchases, in block purchases, privately negotiated
transactions, or otherwise. As reflected in the table below,
1,131,000 shares of common stock were repurchased under
this program during the quarter ended June 30, 2007.
