PROLOGIS
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. General
Business. ProLogis, collectively with our consolidated subsidiaries (we, our, us, the
Company or ProLogis), is a publicly held real estate investment trust (REIT) that owns,
operates and develops (directly and through our unconsolidated investees) primarily industrial
properties in North America, Europe and Asia. Our current business strategy includes two reportable
business segments: direct owned and investment management. Our direct owned segment represents the
direct long-term ownership of industrial properties. Our investment management segment represents
the long-term investment management of property funds and other unconsolidated investees, and the
properties they own. See Note 10 for further discussion of our business segments.
On January 30, 2011, we and three of our newly formed, wholly owned subsidiaries, entered into a
definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger, with AMB Property Corporation, a Maryland corporation
(AMB), and AMB Property, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (AMB LP). During the first
quarter of 2011, we incurred certain expenses in connection with the
expected merger with AMB, that
have been included in Merger Integration Expenses and Reduction in Workforce on the
Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 13 for further discussion on subsequent events
related to the merger.
Basis of Presentation. The accompanying consolidated financial statements, presented in the U.S.
dollar, are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial
statements and revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Our actual results could differ
from those estimates and assumptions. All material intercompany transactions with consolidated
entities have been eliminated.
The accompanying unaudited interim financial information has been prepared according to the rules
and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and
footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with
GAAP have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. Our management
believes that the disclosures presented in these financial statements are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading. In our opinion, all adjustments and eliminations, consisting
only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our financial position as of
March 31, 2011, our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, and
our cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 have been included. We have
evaluated all subsequent events for adjustment to or disclosure in these financial statements
through the issuance of these financial statements. The results of operations for such interim
periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. The accompanying unaudited
interim financial information should be read in conjunction with our December 31, 2010 Consolidated
Financial Statements, as filed with the SEC in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Certain amounts included in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements for 2010 have been
reclassified to conform to the 2011 financial statement presentation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In July 2010, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that
expands existing disclosures about the credit quality of financing receivables and the related
allowance for credit losses. We adopted the expanded disclosure requirements for ending balances
applicable to our Notes Receivable Backed by Real Estate as of December 31, 2010. Disclosures
regarding activity that occurs during the reporting period were effective beginning January 1,
2011. See Note 4 for disclosure of the rollforward activity for the three months ended March 31,
2011.
In January 2010, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that requires disclosures about
purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the reconciliation for Level 3 fair value
measurements. The Level 3 disclosure requirements were effective for us on January 1, 2011, but did
not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations. In addition, we do not have
any significant financial assets or financial liabilities that are measured at fair value using
Level 3 valuation techniques and inputs on a recurring basis, the adoption of this standard is not
considered material.

|
Properties under development consisted of 16 properties aggregating 5.7 million square feet
at March 31, 2011 and 14 properties aggregating 4.9 million square feet at December 31, 2010.
Our total expected investment upon completion of the properties under development at March 31,
2011 was $659.3 million, including land, development and leasing costs. |
|
(3) |
|
Land consisted of 8,909 acres and 8,990 acres at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010,
respectively, and includes land parcels that we may develop or sell depending on market
conditions and other factors. |
|
(4) |
|
Included in other investments are: (i) land subject to ground leases; (ii) parking lots;
(iii) our corporate office buildings, which we occupy, and one office building available for
lease; (iv) certain infrastructure costs related to projects we are developing on behalf of
others; (v) costs incurred related to future development projects, including purchase options
on land; and (vi) earnest money deposits associated with potential acquisitions. |
At March 31, 2011, excluding our assets held for sale, we owned real estate assets in North America
(Canada, Mexico and the United States), Europe (Austria, Belgium, the Czech Republic, France,
Germany, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden and the United
Kingdom) and Asia (Japan).
During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we recognized Net Gains on Dispositions of Real
Estate Properties in continuing operations of $3.7 million, which related to the sale of one
operating property (0.3 million square feet) to ProLogis European Properties Fund II and
adjustments to previous dispositions ($3.1 million gain and cash proceeds of $17.2 million) and the
sale of 60 acres of land to third parties ($0.6 million gain and cash proceeds of $9.1 million).
When we contribute to a property fund or joint venture in which we have an ownership interest, we
do not recognize a portion of the gain realized. If a loss is realized it is recognized when known.
The amount of gain not recognized, based on our ownership interest in the entity acquiring the
property, is deferred by recognizing a reduction to our investment in the applicable unconsolidated
investee. Due to our continuing involvement through our ownership in the unconsolidated investee,
these dispositions are not included in discontinued operations. See Note 5 for further discussion
of properties we sold to third parties that are reported in discontinued operations.
During the first quarter of 2011, we recognized a $6.9 million charge for estimated repairs related
primarily to one of our buildings in Japan that was damaged from the earthquake and related tsunami
in March 2011, which is included in Other Expense, Net on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Property Funds
We have investments in several property funds that own portfolios of operating industrial
properties. Many of these properties were originally developed by us and contributed to these
property funds, although certain of the property funds have also acquired properties from third
parties. We earn fees for acting as manager of the property funds and the properties they own. We
may earn additional fees by providing other services including, but not limited to, leasing,
construction, development and financing. We may also earn incentive performance returns based on
the investors returns over a specified period.

percentage in PEPR and
launched a mandatory tender offer. See Note 13 for more information. |
To the extent an unconsolidated investee acquires properties from a third party or requires cash to
retire debt or has other cash needs, we may agree to contribute our proportionate share of the
equity component in cash to the unconsolidated investee.

As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had notes receivable aggregating $21.4 million
outstanding from ProLogis North American Industrial Fund III for both periods. During 2010, we
purchased an $81.0 million loan to ProLogis North American Industrial Fund II (ProLogis NAIF
II) from the lender, which is included in Notes Receivable Backed by Real Estate; the note
balance was reduced by $2.7 million during the first quarter of 2011. The remaining amounts
represent current balances from services provided by us to the property funds. |
|
(2) |
|
As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had not guaranteed any of the third party debt
of the property funds. We have pledged direct owned properties, with an undepreciated cost of
$273.7 million, to serve as additional collateral for the secured mortgage loan of ProLogis
North American Industrial Fund II payable to an affiliate of our fund partner. |
|
(3) |
|
Represents our weighted average ownership interest in all property funds based on each
entitys contribution to total assets, before depreciation, net of other liabilities. |
|
(4) |
|
The difference between our ownership interest in the property funds equity and our
investment balance results principally from three types of transactions: (i) deferring a
portion of the gains we recognize from a contribution of one of our properties to a property
fund (see next footnote); (ii) recording additional costs associated with our investment in
the property fund; and (iii) advances to the property fund. |
|
(5) |
|
This amount is recorded as a reduction to our investment and represents the gains that were
deferred when we contributed a property to a property fund due to our continuing ownership in
the property. |
|
(6) |
|
In 2010, there were net losses of $5.2 million associated with interest rate contracts that
no longer met the requirements for hedge accounting and, therefore, the change in fair value
of these contracts was recognized within earnings, along with the gain or loss upon
settlement. All derivatives were settled in 2010, therefore, there is no
impact in 2011. |
Other unconsolidated investees
During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we had investments in entities that developed and/or
owned industrial properties and performed land development activity. During the first quarter of
2010, we also had investments in entities that owned non-core
properties, which were disposed of later in
2010 and in the first quarter of 2011. The amounts that we recognized as our proportionate share of
the earnings from our investments in these entities are summarized as follows (in thousands):

In the first quarter of 2011, we completed the sale of a portfolio of U.S. retail, mixed-use
and other non-core assets to a third party. As part of the transaction, we invested
approximately $55 million in a preferred equity interest in a subsidiary of the buyer. Based
on the terms of this instrument, the preferred equity interest meets the definition of an
investment in a debt security from an accounting perspective. We earn a preferred return at an
annual rate of 7% for the first three years, 8% for the fourth year and 10% for the fifth
year. Partial or full redemption can occur at any time at the buyers discretion or after the
five year anniversary at our discretion. |
|
(2) |
|
During the first quarter of 2011, one of the properties securing this note was sold and the
proceeds were used to pay down the balance on the note. As of March 31, 2011 this note is
secured by 12 properties. |
5. Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations
Held for Sale
During the first quarter of 2011, we sold a portfolio of non-core assets for net proceeds of $357.3
million that were included in Assets Held for Sale at December 31, 2010 ($296.7 million of the
proceeds related to assets that are included in Discontinued Operations). As of March 31, 2011, we
have eight land parcels and five operating properties that met the criteria as held for sale. The
amounts included in Assets Held for Sale as of March 31, 2011 primarily include real estate
balances of certain non-core assets, which were part of a definitive agreement signed in
December 2010 that are expected to close in the second quarter of 2011.
Discontinued Operations
During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we disposed of land subject to ground leases and 33
non-development properties aggregating 2.2 million square feet to third parties, most of which was
included in Assets Held for Sale at December 31, 2010. During all of 2010, we disposed of land
subject to ground leases and 205 properties aggregating 25.4 million square feet to third parties,
two of which were development properties.
The operations of the properties held for sale or disposed of to third parties and the aggregate
net gains recognized upon their disposition are presented as Discontinued Operations in our
Consolidated Statements of Operations for all periods presented. Interest expense is included in
discontinued operations only if it is directly attributable to these properties.

The interest rates presented represent the effective interest rates (including amortization
of the non-cash discount related to these notes). The weighted average coupon interest rate
was 2.6% as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. |
As of
March 31, 2011, we were in compliance with all of our debt
covenants, under our Global Line and Indenture, dated as of March 1,
1995, between Prologis and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee
(as successor in interest to State Street Bank and Trust Company) (as
amended, supplemented or otherwise modified to the date hereof, the
Indenture).
During the three months ended March 31, 2010, in connection with our announced initiatives to
stagger and extend our debt maturities and reduce debt, we repurchased certain senior and
convertible senior notes outstanding with maturities in 2012 and 2013 (we did not repurchase any
debt in 2011). We utilized proceeds from borrowings under the Global Line to repurchase the senior
notes. In addition, in 2010 we repaid certain secured mortgage debt in connection with the sale of
a property in Japan. The activity is summarized as follows (in thousands):

We may draw funds from a syndicate of banks in U.S. dollars, euros, Japanese yen, and British pound
sterling. Based on our public debt ratings and a pricing grid, interest on the borrowings under the
Global Line accrues at a variable rate (3.58% per annum at March 31, 2011 based on a weighted
average using local currency rates) and is based upon the interbank offered rate in each respective
jurisdiction in which the borrowings are outstanding. The facility matures on August 12, 2012.
Secured Mortgage Debt
TMK bonds are a financing vehicle in Japan for special purpose companies known as TMKs. In 2011, we
issued a ¥13.0 billion ($161.3 million) TMK bond on March 17, 2011 at 1.34% due March 2018 on one
property with an undepreciated cost of $253.8 million at March 31, 2011.

may settle in cash or common shares, at our option. |
7. Long-Term Compensation
Our long-term incentive plans provide for grants of share options, stock appreciation rights, full
value awards and cash incentive awards to employees and other persons, including non-management
members of our Board of Trustees. The full value awards outstanding at March 31, 2011 include
restricted share units (RSUs) and performance share awards (PSAs).

In 2011, we granted 1,159,968 RSUs and 628,417 target PSAs. The PSAs were granted to certain
employees of the company, vest over three years and may be earned based on the attainment of
certain individual and company goals for 2011. The ultimate number of PSAs that may be earned and
issued to each employee can be between from 0 200% of their target award.
8. Earnings Per Common Share
We determine basic earnings per share based on the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the period. We compute diluted earnings per share based on the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding combined with the incremental weighted average effect from all
outstanding potentially dilutive instruments.
The following table sets forth the computation of our basic and diluted earnings per share (in
thousands, except per share amounts):

9. Financial Instruments
Derivative Financial Instruments
In the normal course of business, our operations are exposed to global market risks, including the
effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. To manage these risks, we
may enter into various derivative contracts. We may use foreign currency contracts, including
forwards and options, to manage foreign currency exposure. We may use interest rate swaps to manage
the effect of interest rate fluctuations. We do not use derivative financial instruments for
trading purposes. The majority of our derivative financial instruments are customized derivative
transactions and are not exchange-traded. Management reviews our hedging program, derivative
positions, and overall risk management strategy on a regular basis. We only enter into transactions
that we believe will be effective at offsetting the underlying risk.
Our use of derivatives does involve the risk that counterparties may default on a derivative
contract. We establish exposure limits for each counterparty to minimize this risk and provide
counterparty diversification. Substantially all of our derivative exposures are with counterparties
that have long-term credit ratings of single-A or better. We enter into master agreements with
counterparties that generally allow for netting of certain exposures; therefore, the actual loss we
would recognize if all counterparties failed to perform as contracted would be significantly lower.
To mitigate pre-settlement risk, minimum credit standards become more stringent as the duration of
the derivative financial instrument increases. To minimize the concentration of credit risk, we
enter into derivative transactions with a portfolio of financial institutions. Based on these
factors, we consider the risk of counterparty default to be minimal.
All derivatives are recognized at fair value in our Consolidated Balance Sheets within the line
items Other Assets or Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses, as applicable. We do not net our
derivative position by counterparty for purposes of balance sheet presentation and disclosure. The
accounting for gains and losses that result from changes in the fair values of derivative
instruments depends on whether the derivatives are designated as, and qualify as, hedging
instruments. Derivatives can be designated as fair value hedges, cash flow hedges or hedges of net
investments in foreign operations.
12
PROLOGIS
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(Unaudited)
Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges are
recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We
reclassify changes in the fair value of derivatives into the applicable line item in our
Consolidated Statements of Operations in which the hedged items are recorded in the same period
that the underlying hedged items affect earnings. Due to the high degree of effectiveness between
the hedging instruments and the underlying exposures hedged, fluctuations in the value of the
derivative instruments will generally be offset by changes in the fair values or cash flows of the
underlying exposures being hedged. The changes in fair values of derivatives that were not
designated and/or did not qualify as hedging instruments are immediately recognized in earnings.
For derivatives that will be accounted for as hedging instruments in accordance with the accounting
standards, we formally designate and document, at inception, the financial instrument as a hedge of
a specific underlying exposure, the risk management objective and the strategy for undertaking the
hedge transaction. In addition, we formally assess both at inception and at least quarterly
thereafter, whether the derivatives used in hedging transactions are effective at offsetting
changes in either the fair values or cash flows of the related underlying exposures. Any
ineffective portion of a derivative financial instruments change in fair value is immediately
recognized in earnings. Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and are used to
manage our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations but do not meet the strict hedge accounting
requirements.
Our interest rate risk management strategy is to limit the impact of future interest rate changes
on earnings and cash flows. To achieve this objective, we primarily borrow on a fixed rate basis
for longer-term debt issuances. The maximum length of time that we hedge our exposure to future
cash flows is typically less than 10 years. We use cash flow hedges to minimize the variability in
cash flows of assets or liabilities or forecasted transactions caused by fluctuations in interest
rates. We typically designate our interest rate swap agreements as cash flow hedges as these
derivative instruments may be used to manage the interest rate risk on potential future debt
issuances or to fix the interest rate on a variable rate debt issuance. The effective portion of
the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive
Income (Loss) in our Consolidated Balance Sheets, and reclassified to Interest Expense in the
Consolidated Statements of Operations over the corresponding period of the hedged item. Losses on
the derivative representing hedge ineffectiveness are recognized in Interest Expense at the time
the ineffectiveness occurred.
We have entered into interest rate swap contracts with a combined notional amount of $268.1 million
to fix the variable rate on certain TMK bonds. We designated these contracts as cash flow hedges
and they qualify for hedge accounting treatment. At March 31, 2011, we had $1.0 million accrued in
Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses in our Consolidated Balance Sheets relating to these
unsettled derivative contracts.
There was no ineffectiveness recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010. The
amount reclassified to interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 is not
considered material.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
We have estimated the fair value of our financial instruments using available market information
and valuation methodologies we believe to be appropriate for these purposes. Considerable judgment
and a high degree of subjectivity are involved in developing these estimates and, accordingly, they
are not necessarily indicative of amounts that we would realize upon disposition.
The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which are described below:
|
|
|
Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that
the entity has the ability to access. |
|
|
|
Level 2 Observable inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as
quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for
identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other
inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. |
|
|
|
Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity
and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. This
includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar
techniques that use significant unobservable inputs. |
At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the carrying amounts of certain of our financial
instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable and accounts
payable and accrued expenses were representative of their fair values due to the short-term nature
of these instruments and the recent acquisition of these items.
At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the fair value of our senior notes and convertible senior
notes, has been estimated based upon quoted market prices for the same (Level 1) or similar (Level
2) issues when current quoted market prices are available, the fair value of our Global Line has
been estimated by discounting the future cash flows using rates and borrowing spreads currently
available to us (Level 3), and the fair value of our secured mortgage debt and assessment bonds
that do not have current quoted market prices available has been estimated by discounting the
future cash flows using rates currently available to us for debt with similar terms and maturities
(Level 3). The fair value of our derivative
13
PROLOGIS
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(Unaudited)
financial instruments is determined through widely accepted valuation techniques including
discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative (Level 2). The
differences in the fair value of our debt from the carrying value in the table below are the result
of differences in interest rates and/or borrowing spreads that were available to us at March 31,
2011 and December 31, 2010, as compared with those in effect when the debt was issued or acquired.
The senior notes and many of the issues of secured mortgage debt contain pre-payment penalties or
yield maintenance provisions that could make the cost of refinancing the debt at lower rates exceed
the benefit that would be derived from doing so.

thousands):

10. Business Segments
Our business strategy currently includes two operating segments, as follows:
|
|
Direct Owned representing the direct long-term ownership of industrial operating
properties. Each operating property is considered to be an individual operating segment having
similar economic characteristics that are combined within the reportable segment based upon
geographic location. Also included in this segment is the development of properties for
continued direct ownership, including land held for development and properties currently under
development and land we own and lease to customers under ground leases. We own real estate in
North America (Canada, Mexico and the United States), Europe (Austria, Belgium, the Czech
Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Spain,
Sweden and the United Kingdom) and Asia (Japan). |
|
|
Investment Management representing the long-term investment management of property funds
and industrial joint ventures and the properties they own. We recognize our proportionate
share of the earnings or losses from our investments in unconsolidated property funds and
certain joint ventures operating in North America, Europe and Asia that are accounted for
under the equity method. In addition, we recognize fees and incentives earned for services
performed on behalf of the unconsolidated investees and certain third parties and dividends
and interest income earned on investments in preferred stock or debt securities in our
unconsolidated investees, if any. |
|
|
We report the costs associated with our investment management segment for all periods presented
in the line item Investment Management Expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
These costs include the direct expenses associated with the asset management of the property
funds provided by individuals who are assigned to our investment management segment. In
addition, in order to achieve efficiencies and economies of scale, all of our property
management functions are provided by a team of professionals who are assigned to our direct
owned segment. These individuals perform the property-level management of the properties we own
and the properties we manage that are owned by the unconsolidated investees. We allocate the
costs of our property management function to the properties we own (reported in Rental Expenses)
and the properties owned by the unconsolidated investees (included in Investment Management
Expenses), by using the square feet owned at the beginning of the period by the respective
portfolios. |
|
|
Each investment in a property fund or joint venture is considered to be an individual operating
segment having similar economic characteristics that are combined within the reportable segment
based upon geographic location. Our operations in the investment management segment are in North
America (Canada, Mexico and the United States), Europe (Belgium, the Czech Republic, France,
Germany, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden and the United
Kingdom) and Asia (Japan and South Korea). |
We present the operations and net gains associated with properties sold to third parties or
classified as held for sale as discontinued operations, which results in the restatement of prior
year operating results to exclude the items presented as discontinued operations.
Reconciliations are presented below for: (i) each reportable business segments revenue from
external customers to our Total Revenues; (ii) each reportable business segments net operating
income from external customers to our Loss before Income Taxes; and (iii) each reportable business
segments assets to our Total Assets. Our chief operating decision makers rely primarily on net
operating income and similar measures to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing
segment performance. The applicable components of our Revenues, Loss before Income Taxes and Total
Assets are allocated to each reportable business segments revenues, net operating income and
assets. Items that are not directly assignable to a segment, such as certain corporate income and
expenses, are reflected as reconciling items. The following reconciliations are presented in
thousands:

11. Supplemental Cash Flow Information
During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, we capitalized portions of the total cost of
our share-based compensation awards of $1.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively, to the
investment basis of our real estate or other assets.
In February 2010, we received $4.6 million of ownership interests in ProLogis North American
Industrial Fund as a portion of our proceeds from the contribution of a property to this property
fund.
The amount of interest paid in cash, net of amounts capitalized, for the three months ended March
31, 2011 and 2010 was $68.2 million and $43.1 million, respectively.
During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, cash paid for income taxes, net of refunds,
was $5.9 million and $19.9 million, respectively.
12. Commitments and Contingencies
From time to time, we and our unconsolidated investees are party to a variety of legal proceedings
arising in the ordinary course of business. We believe that, with respect to any such matters that
we are currently a party to, the ultimate disposition of any such matters will not result in a
material adverse effect on our business, financial position or results of operations.
Following the announcement of the merger agreement, several lawsuits were filed. Three actions were
filed in the District Court for the City and County of Denver, Colorado. These cases have been
consolidated, and on or about April 1, 2011, plaintiffs filed a consolidated class action
16
PROLOGIS
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(Unaudited)
complaint against ProLogis, the members of our Board of Trustees (the Board), AMB, New Pumpkin
Inc. (New Pumpkin), Upper Pumpkin LLC (Upper Pumpkin), Pumpkin LLC (Pumpkin) and AMB LP. The
complaint alleges that the Board breached their fiduciary duties in connection with entering into
the merger agreement and that we, AMB, New Pumpkin, Upper Pumpkin, Pumpkin and AMB LP aided and
abetted the breaches of those fiduciary duties. The complaint further alleges that the registration
statement that was filed along with the joint proxy statement/prospectus contained material
omissions and misstatements. The plaintiffs seek, among other relief, an order to (i) enjoin the
defendants from consummating the merger unless and until we adopt and implement a procedure or
process reasonably designed to enter into a merger agreement providing the best possible value for
our shareholders; (ii) direct the defendants to exercise their fiduciary duties to obtain a
transaction that is in the best interests of our shareholders and to refrain from entering into any
transaction until the process for the sale or merger of ProLogis is completed and the highest
possible value obtained; (iii) rescind the merger agreement, to the extent already implemented; and
(iv) award plaintiffs costs and disbursements of the action. Defendants have moved to stay the
Colorado action in favor of the Maryland action described below. Plaintiffs have moved for
expedited discovery, and the defendants have opposed that motion.
Two actions were filed in the Circuit Court of Maryland for Baltimore City. The actions have been
consolidated, and the plaintiffs filed a consolidated class action and derivative complaint on or
about March 28, 2011. The Maryland consolidated complaint names the same defendants as the Colorado
consolidated complaint. The complaint alleges that the members of the Board breached their
fiduciary duties in connection with the merger and that AMB and AMB LP aided and abetted the
breaches of those fiduciary duties. The complaint further alleges that the registration statement
that was filed along with the joint proxy statement/prospectus is misleading and incomplete. The
plaintiffs in this action seek, among other relief, an order to: (i) enjoin, preliminarily and
permanently, the merger; (ii) rescind the merger in the event it is consummated or award rescissory
damages; (iii) direct the defendants to account to plaintiffs and all other members of the class
for all damages, profits and any special benefits defendants obtained as a result of their breaches
of fiduciary duties; and (iv) award plaintiffs the costs of the action. Defendants have moved to
dismiss the Maryland action for failure to state a claim and to stay all discovery pending a ruling
on their motion to dismiss. Plaintiffs have moved for expedited discovery in advance of a
preliminary injunction hearing.
On April 15, 2011, the parties to the Maryland action executed a memorandum of understanding that
embodies their agreement in principle on the structure of a proposed settlement. The proposed
settlement, which is subject to confirmatory discovery and court approval following notice to the
class of all or our shareholders during the period from January 30, 2011 through the date of the
consummation of the merger (which we refer to as the Class), would dismiss all causes of action
asserted in the Maryland consolidated complaint and release all claims that members of the Class
may have arising out of or relating in any manner to the merger, including all claims being
asserted in the Colorado action. Pursuant to the terms of the proposed settlement, defendants
agreed to make certain disclosures to shareholders in their joint proxy statement/prospectus. The
parties reported to the Maryland court on April 18, 2011 that they had reached agreement on a
proposed settlement and executed a memorandum of understanding. On April 27, 2011, the parties to
the consolidated action in Colorado reached an agreement in principle on the structure of a
proposed settlement. Under the proposed settlement, which is subject to confirmatory discovery and
approval of the Maryland court following notice to the Class, defendants agreed to make additional
disclosures in their joint proxy statement/prospectus.
The defendants believe that the claims asserted against them in these lawsuits are without merit
and, absent court approval of the proposed settlement, intend to defend themselves vigorously
against the claims.

Subsequent Events
Merger with AMB
On
April 28, 2011, the SEC declared effective AMBs registration statement on Form S-4 relating to our
proposed merger with AMB (the Merger) effective. We have
set June 1, 2011 as the date of the special meeting
for our common shareholders to vote on the Merger. Subject to receipt of shareholder approval,
approval by the stockholders of AMB and satisfaction or waiver of the other closing conditions, the
anticipated effective date of the Merger is June 3, 2011.
In connection with and contingent upon consummation
of the Merger, on May 3, 2011, AMB LP commenced offers to exchange all of our outstanding senior notes and
convertible senior notes issued under the Indenture for corresponding series of notes to be issued by AMB LP
and guaranteed by AMB. Following the Merger, we intend to revoke the classification of all indebtedness arising
under the Indenture as designated senior debt under the Amended and Restated Security Agency Agreement dated as
of October 6, 2005 among various creditors of ProLogis and Bank of America, N.A., as collateral agent (the Security Agency
Agreement) and to cause the termination of the Security Agency Agreement. Although we intend to make such revocation
promptly after satisfaction of the requirements for revocation set forth in Section 8(e) of the Security Agency Agreement,
and to cause such termination concurrently therewith or shortly thereafter, we do not have any obligation to do so and may
delay, or elect not to take, either of such actions.
Ownership in PEPR
In April 2011, we increased our ownership percentage in PEPR to approximately 39% and launched a
mandatory tender offer to acquire any or all of the outstanding ordinary units and convertible
preferred units we do not currently own in PEPR. In May 2011, we agreed to purchase additional
ordinary and convertible preferred units in PEPR from two of PEPRs institutional investors at a
price of 6.20 per unit. After the purchases, our ownership percentage in PEPR will increase to
approximately 60%. Concurrently, we increased the offer price for any and all ordinary units and
convertible preferred units of PEPR that we do not currently own to 6.20 per unit in cash from our
previous offer price of 6.10 per unit and extended the offer acceptance period to May 18, 2011.
The consideration for the shares we purchased in April 2011 will be increased to match the new
6.20 per unit offer price. We have funded the April purchases on our Global Line and we expect to
fund the purchase of these additional units and any units tendered (approximately 811 million or
$1.2 billion at May 2, 2011) by drawing on our Global Line and with funds borrowed through a new
500 million ($741.9 million at May 2, 2011) bridge loan obtained in April 2011. Depending on the
results of the tender offer, the accounting for our investment in PEPR may change.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Trustees and Shareholders
ProLogis:
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of ProLogis and subsidiaries (the
Company) as of March 31, 2011, the related consolidated statements of operations for the
three-month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, the related consolidated statement of equity for
the three-month period ended March 31, 2011, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive
income (loss) for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related
consolidated statements of cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of
applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with
the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of
which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.
Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the
consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of ProLogis and subsidiaries as of December
31, 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss),
equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated
February 25, 2011, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.
In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of
December 31, 2010, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated
balance sheet from which it has been derived.

ITEM 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements
and the related notes included in Item 1 of this report and our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Certain statements contained in this discussion or elsewhere in this report may be deemed
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995 and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934. Words and phrases such as expects, anticipates, intends, plans, believes,
seeks, estimates, designed to achieve, variations of such words and similar expressions are
intended to identify such forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature.
All statements that address operating performance, events or developments that we expect or
anticipate will occur in the future including statements relating to rent and occupancy growth,
development activity and changes in sales or contribution volume or profitability on such sales and
contributions, economic and market conditions in the geographic areas where we operate and the
availability of capital in existing or new property funds are forward-looking statements. These
statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and
assumptions that are difficult to predict. Although we believe the expectations reflected in any
forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that our
expectations will be attained and therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from
what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking statements. Many of the factors that may
affect outcomes and results are beyond our ability to control. For further discussion of these
factors see Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K. All
references to we, us and our refer to ProLogis and our consolidated subsidiaries. Unless
otherwise noted herein, all statements, particularly those in Item 2. Managements Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, are not reflective of the impact of the
proposed merger with AMB Property Corporation discussed herein.
Managements Overview
We are a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust (REIT) that owns,
operates and develops real estate properties, primarily industrial properties, in North America,
Europe and Asia (directly and through our unconsolidated investees). Our business is primarily
driven by requirements for modern, well-located inventory space in key global distribution
locations. Our focus on our customers needs has enabled us to become a leading global provider of
industrial distribution properties.
Our current business strategy includes two operating segments: direct owned and investment
management. Our direct owned segment represents the direct long-term ownership of industrial
properties. Our investment management segment represents the long-term investment management of
property funds, other unconsolidated investees and the properties they own.
We generate revenues; earnings; FFO, as defined at the end of Item 2; and cash flows through our
segments primarily as follows:
|
|
Direct Owned Segment Our investment strategy in this segment focuses primarily on the
ownership and leasing of industrial properties in key distribution markets. Also included in
this segment are industrial properties that are currently under development, land available
for development and/or disposition and land subject to ground leases. |
|
|
We earn rent from our customers, including reimbursements of certain operating costs, generally
under long-term operating leases. The revenue from this segment has increased in 2011 from 2010
due to the lease up and increased occupancy levels of our operating portfolio, primarily from
our completed development properties, partially offset by a decrease in rental rates. We
anticipate additional increases in occupied square feet to come from leases that have been
signed, but where the space will not be occupied until future quarters. Our direct owned
operating portfolio was 87.7% and 87.6% leased at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010,
respectively, and 85.7% and 85.9% occupied at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010,
respectively. |
|
|
Investment Management Segment We recognize our proportionate share of the earnings or
losses from our investments in unconsolidated property funds and certain joint ventures that
are accounted for under the equity method. In addition, we recognize fees and incentives
earned for services performed on behalf of these and other entities. We provide services to
these entities, which may include property management, asset management, leasing, acquisition,
financing and development services. We may also earn incentives from our property funds
depending on the return provided to the fund partners over a specified period. |
On January 30, 2011, we and three of our newly formed, wholly owned subsidiaries, entered into a
definitive Agreement and Plan of Merger (the Merger Agreement), with AMB Property Corporation, a
Maryland corporation (AMB), and AMB Property, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (AMB LP).
The merger and related integration is progressing as expected and we anticipate closing will be in
the second quarter of 2011, subject to shareholder approval and other closing conditions. The
meeting of shareholders to consider and vote on the merger is scheduled for June 1, 2011. See
further discussion in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements in Item I.
Summary of 2011
Our objectives for 2011 and beyond are to: (i) increase occupancy in our industrial portfolio
(representing 167.6 million square feet at March 31, 2011 that was 85.7% occupied); (ii) develop
new industrial properties on our land, predominantly in our major logistics corridors; (iii) sell
our non-core properties; and (iv) along with development, monetize our investment in land through
dispositions to third parties as raw land or subsequent to the development of a building.
We have made progress on these objectives, as well as completed other activities, as follows:
|
|
We generated aggregate proceeds of $409.0 million from the disposition of 33 properties to
third parties, including the sale of the majority of a portfolio of non-core assets for which we signed a definitive agreement in the fourth quarter of
2010, and the sale of one development property to ProLogis European Properties Fund II (PEPF
II). We used these proceeds to help fund our |
19
|
|
development activities, which will allow us to develop a portion of our investment in land held
for development into income producing properties through new build-to-suit and potential
speculative opportunities. |
|
|
We began development on four properties in Europe that aggregated 1.2 million square feet
and utilized $29.1 million of land we owned and held for development. Three of these
properties were 100% pre-leased. In addition, we sold land parcels to third parties for net
proceeds of $9.1 million. |
|
|
On March 17, 2011, we issued ¥13.0 billion in
TMK bonds ($161.3 million) at
1.34% due March 2018 on one property with an undepreciated cost of $253.8 million at March 31,
2011. |
|
|
We increased the leased percentage of our operating portfolio slightly from 87.6% at
December 31, 2010 to 87.7% at March 31, 2011. |
|
|
In April 2011, we increased our ownership percentage in PEPR and
launched a mandatory tender offer. See further discussion on the
tender offer in Liquidity and Capital Resources. |

Direct Owned Segment
The net operating income of the direct owned segment consists of rental income and rental expenses
from industrial properties that we own. The size and occupied percentage of our direct owned
operating portfolio fluctuates due to the timing of development and contributions and affects the
net operating income we recognize in this segment. Also included in this segment is land we own and
lease to customers under ground leases, development management and other income, offset by
acquisition costs and land holding cost. The net operating income from the direct owned segment for
the three months ended March 31, excluding amounts presented as Discontinued Operations in our
Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1, was as follows (in thousands):

At December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010, there were 3 properties (aggregating 1.0 million
square feet) and 202 properties (aggregating 26.2 million square
feet), respectively, that were included in
discontinued operations and therefore excluded from the direct owned segment. |
The increase in rental income in 2011 from 2010 is due primarily to the increased leasing and
occupancy in our operating portfolio and the completion of new development properties, offset by
decreases in rental rates. During 2011, we completed the development of two buildings aggregating
0.4 million square feet that were 100% leased at March 31, 2011 and sold one development property
aggregating 0.3 million square feet to PEPF II. The effective rental rates in our same store
portfolio (as defined below) decreased 9.2% in the first quarter 2011 as compared with first
quarter 2010. Under the terms of our lease agreements, we are able to recover the majority of our
rental expenses from customers. Rental expense recoveries, included in both rental income and
expenses, were $44.9 million and $41.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010,
respectively.
Investment Management Segment
The net operating income of the investment management segment consists of: (i) earnings or losses
recognized under the equity method from our investments in property funds and certain joint
ventures; (ii) fees and incentives earned for services performed for our unconsolidated investees
and certain third parties; and (iii) dividends and interest earned on investments in preferred
stock or debt securities of our unconsolidated investees; offset by (iv) our direct costs of
managing these entities and the properties they own.
The net earnings or losses of the unconsolidated investees may include the following income and
expense items, in addition to rental income and rental expenses: (i) interest income and interest
expense; (ii) depreciation and amortization expenses; (iii) general and administrative expenses;
(iv) income tax expense; (v) foreign currency exchange gains and losses; (vi) gains or losses on
dispositions of properties or investments; and (vii) impairment charges. The fluctuations in income
we recognize in any given period are generally the result of: (i) variances in the income and
expense items of the unconsolidated investees; (ii) the size of the portfolio and occupancy levels;
(iii) changes in our ownership interest; and (iv) fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates
at which we translate our share of net earnings to U.S. dollars, if applicable.
The direct costs associated with our investment management segment totaled $10.6 million and $10.3
million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and are included in the
line item Investment Management Expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. This
slight increase is due to the sale of a portfolio of industrial properties to a third party in the
fourth quarter of 2010 that we still manage. These costs include the direct expenses associated
with the asset management of the property funds provided by individuals who are assigned to our
investment management segment. In addition, in order to achieve efficiencies and economies of
scale, all of our property management functions are provided by a team of professionals who are
assigned to our direct owned segment. These individuals perform the property-level management of
the properties we own and the properties we manage that are owned by the unconsolidated investees
and certain third parties. We allocate the costs of our property management function to the
properties we own (reported in Rental Expenses) and the properties owned by the unconsolidated
investees (included in Investment Management Expenses), by using the square feet owned at the
beginning of the period by the respective portfolios.
The net operating income from the investment management segment for the three months ended March 31

Represents the income earned by us from our investments in
seven and ten property funds for
the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, in North America, respectively, offset by
investment management expenses. During the fourth quarter of 2010, we sold our 20% interest in
three property funds (ProLogis North American Properties Funds VI-VIII). We continue to
provide property management services for the industrial properties that were previously owned
by these property funds. Our ownership interests ranged from 20.0% to 50.0% at March 31,
2011. These property funds on a combined basis, excluding ProLogis North American Properties
Funds VI-VIII, owned 724, 725 and 725 properties that were 91.0%, 92.1% and 91.2% occupied at
March 31, 2011, December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010, respectively. |
|
|
|
Our proportionate share of earnings from the North American property funds increased in 2011, as
compared with 2010, due to higher interest income on outstanding loans from the property funds
offset by a reduction in management fee income from ProLogis North American Properties Funds
VI-VIII following the disposition of these funds to a third party in the fourth quarter of 2010.
In addition, included in net operating income for the first quarter of 2010 is a net loss of
$1.9 million, which represents our proportionate share of net losses that were recognized by a
property fund for interest rate derivative contracts that no longer met the requirements for

months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. |

Represents the income earned by us from our investments in two property funds in Europe, PEPR
and PEPF II, offset by investment management expenses. On a combined basis, these funds owned
438, 437 and 428 properties that were 92.8%, 93.6% and 94.3% occupied at March 31, 2011,
December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010, respectively. The increase in properties is due to
contributions we made to PEPF II in 2011 and 2010, along with the acquisition of three
properties from third parties by PEPF II in 2010. |
|
|
|
Excluding our preferred interest in PEPR, our common ownership interest in PEPR and PEPF II was
33.1% and 29.7%, respectively, at March 31, 2011. In April 2011, we increased our ownership
percentage in PEPR to approximately 39% and launched a mandatory tender offer. See further discussion on the tender offer in Liquidity and Capital Resources. |

properties and were 100%, 100%, and 97.8% occupied, respectively. |

Operational Outlook
With global economic fundamentals having begun to show signs of recovery in late 2009, the
industrial real estate business has followed suit, and also begun to stabilize, albeit with a
slight lag. Globally, demand for industrial distribution space is still soft, but we are seeing
signs of increased customer interest, with increased market activity in 2010 and 2011 and positive
overall market net absorption for four consecutive quarters. Looking ahead, we expect demand in
the U.S. to improve as the economic recovery gains traction. Within Europe and Asia, we believe
significant obsolescence and customers preference to lease, rather than own, facilities will
continue to drive demand for industrial space. Market rents currently remain below their cyclical
peaks and also below the level of rents generally needed to justify new speculative construction.
However, we believe market rents are trending upward and new development will take place.
In our total operating industrial portfolio, including properties managed by us and owned by our
unconsolidated investees that are accounted for under the equity method, we leased 21.9 million
square feet and 119.4 million square feet of space during the three months ended March 31, 2011
and the year ended December 31, 2010, respectively. On lease turnovers in the same store portfolio
(as defined below), rental rates decreased 9.2% for the first quarter of 2011 as compared with a
decline of 12.3% for the first quarter of 2010. The total operating portfolio was 90.7% leased at
March 31, 2011, slightly down from 91.0% at December 31, 2010, due to lower leasing activity and
occupancy in our investment management portfolio, offset by an increase in the direct owned
operating portfolio resulting from the lease up of our development properties.
In our direct owned portfolio, we leased 10.7 million square feet for the three months ended March
31, 2011 compared to 12.7 million square feet for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Our
existing customers renewed their leases 65.9% of the time during the three months ended March 31,
2011 as compared with 71.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2010. As of March 31, 2011, our
total direct owned industrial operating portfolio was 87.7% leased, as compared with 87.6% at
December 31, 2010 and 83.7% at March 31, 2010.
New speculative development has fallen to record-low levels worldwide during the past couple of
years. However, we continue to experience a stable level of customer requests for build-to-suit
proposals, since much of the overall existing industry vacancy is in older, obsolete buildings and,
therefore, does not meet these customers distribution space requirements. During the three months
ended March 31, 2011, in response to this emerging demand, we started development of four
properties in Europe totaling 1.2 million square feet, three of which were 100% leased prior to the
commencement of development. In an effort to monetize our land holdings, we plan to continue to
take advantage of opportunities to develop new, generally pre-leased, operating properties for
long-term investment, primarily in our major logistics corridors.
As of March 31, 2011, we had 16 properties under development that were 68.9% leased and we expect
to incur an additional $204.6 million of development and leasing costs related to these properties.
Our near-term focus is to complete the development and leasing of these properties. Once these
properties are leased, we will generally own them directly, thereby creating additional income in
our direct owned segment. In certain limited circumstances, we may sell them to a third party, a
property fund or joint venture, including properties that are pre-committed for sale.

Merger Integration Expenses and Reduction in Workforce

We incurred $6.0 million of expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2011 in connection with
the expected merger with AMB and a reduction in workforce associated with certain recent or
expected dispositions.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expenses were $82.7 million and $75.2 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase is due to the leasing and stabilization
of properties that we have developed.

Gross interest expense decreased in 2011 from 2010 due primarily to lower debt levels. Our total
debt decreased from $8.1 billion at March 31, 2010 to $6.4 billion at March 31, 2011 due to
repayments and repurchases with proceeds from asset sales and our November 2010 equity offering.
The decrease in capitalized amounts in 2011 from 2010 is due to less development activity and the
stabilization of previously developed properties. Our weighted average effective interest rate was
6.20% and 6.35% for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Our future
interest expense, both gross and the portion capitalized, will vary depending on, among other
things, the level of our development activities.
Other Expenses, Net
During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we recorded a $6.9 million charge related primarily
to one of our buildings in Japan that was damaged from the earthquake and related tsunami.
Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt
During the three months ended March 31, 2010, in connection with our initiatives to reduce debt and
stagger debt maturities, we purchased portions of several series of senior notes and senior
convertible notes outstanding and extinguished some secured mortgage debt prior to maturity, which
resulted in the recognition of $47.6 million losses (we did not purchase any debt in 2011). The
gains or losses represent the difference between the recorded debt (net of premiums and discounts
and including related debt issuance costs) and the consideration we paid to retire the debt,
including fees. See Note 6 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 for more information
regarding our debt repurchases.
Income Tax Expense
During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, our current income tax expense was $5.5
million and $9.8 million, respectively. We recognize current income tax expense for income taxes
incurred by our taxable REIT subsidiaries and in certain foreign jurisdictions, as well as certain
state taxes. We also include in current income tax expense the interest associated with our
liability for uncertain tax positions. Our current income tax expense fluctuates from period to
period based primarily on the timing of our taxable income and changes in tax and interest rates.
In 2011 and 2010, we recognized a net deferred tax expense of $0.9 million and a net deferred tax
benefit of $1.6 million, respectively. Deferred income tax expense is generally a function of the
periods temporary differences and the utilization of net operating losses generated in prior years
that had been previously recognized as deferred income tax assets in certain of our taxable
subsidiaries operating in the U.S. or in foreign jurisdictions.
Discontinued Operations
Discontinued operations represent a component of an entity that has either been disposed of or is
classified as held for sale if both the operations and cash flows of the component have been or
will be eliminated from ongoing operations of the entity as a result of the disposal transaction
and the entity will not have any significant continuing involvement in the operations of the
component after the disposal transaction. The results of operations of the component of the entity
that has been classified as discontinued operations are reported separately in our Consolidated
Financial Statements in Item 1.
In 2011, we disposed of land subject to ground leases and 33 non-development properties aggregating
2.2 million square feet to third parties, most of which was included in Assets Held for Sale at
December 31, 2010. The net gains on disposition of these properties of $2.0 million, net of taxes
of $1.9 million, are reflected in discontinued operations, along with the results of operations of
these properties for all periods presented.
As of March 31, 2011, we have eight land parcels and six operating properties that met the criteria
as held for sale. We also have certain other non-core assets, which are part of a definitive
agreement signed in December 2010 that we expect to sell in the second quarter of 2011 that met
23
the criteria as held for sale. The amounts included in Assets Held for Sale as of March 31, 2011
include real estate investment balances and the related assets and liabilities for each property.
During all of 2010, we disposed of land subject to ground leases and 205 properties aggregating
25.4 million square feet to third parties.
See Note 5 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1.
Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) Foreign Currency Translation (Losses), Net
For our consolidated subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, we translate
their financial statements into U.S. dollars at the time we consolidate those subsidiaries
financial statements. Generally, assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in
effect as of the balance sheet date. The resulting translation adjustments, due to the fluctuations
in exchange rates from the beginning of the period to the end of the period, are included in Other
Comprehensive Income (Loss).
During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, we recorded unrealized gains in Other
Comprehensive Income (Loss) of $201.3 million and losses of $118.0 million, respectively, related
to foreign currency translations of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars upon consolidation.
In 2011, we recorded net unrealized gains due to the strengthening of the euro and pound sterling
to the U.S. dollar, from the beginning to the end of the period. In 2010, the unrealized losses
are mainly the result of the strengthening of the U.S. dollar to the euro and pound sterling,
partially offset by the yen strengthening against the U.S. dollar, from the beginning to the end of
the period.
Portfolio Information
Our total operating portfolio of properties includes industrial properties owned by us and the
property funds and joint ventures we manage and account for on the equity method. The operating
portfolio does not include properties under development, properties held for sale or any other
properties owned by unconsolidated investees, and was as follows (square feet in thousands):

Same Store Analysis
We evaluate the performance of the operating properties we own and manage using a same store
analysis because the population of properties in this analysis is consistent from period to period,
thereby eliminating the effects of changes in the composition of the portfolio on performance
measures. We include properties owned by us, and properties owned by the unconsolidated investees
(accounted for on the equity method) that are managed by us (referred to as unconsolidated
investees), in our same store analysis. We have defined the same store portfolio, for the three
months ended March 31, 2011, as those properties that were in operation at January 1, 2010, and
have been in operation throughout the three-month periods in both 2011 and 2010. We have removed
all properties that were disposed of to a third party or were classified as held for sale from the
population for both periods. We believe the factors that impact rental income, rental expenses and
net operating income in the same store portfolio are generally the same as for the total portfolio.
In order to derive an appropriate measure of period-to-period operating performance, we remove the
effects of foreign currency exchange rate movements by using the current exchange rate to translate
from local currency into U.S. dollars, for both periods. The same store portfolio, for the three
months ended March 31, 2011, included 2,139 properties that aggregated 412.7 million square feet.
The following is a reconciliation of our consolidated rental income, rental expenses and net
operating income (calculated as rental income less rental expenses) for the three months ended
March 31, 2011 and 2010, as included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations in Item 1, to the
respective amounts in our same store portfolio analysis.

As discussed above, our same store portfolio includes industrial properties from our
consolidated portfolio and owned by the unconsolidated investees (accounted for on the equity
method) that are managed by us. During the periods presented, certain properties owned by us
were contributed to a property fund and are included in the same store portfolio on an
aggregate basis. Neither our consolidated results nor that of the unconsolidated investees,
when viewed individually, would be comparable on a same store basis due to the changes in
composition of the respective portfolios from period to period (for example, the results of a
contributed property would be included in our consolidated results through the contribution
date and in the results of the unconsolidated investee subsequent to the contribution date). |
|
(2) |
|
We exclude the net termination and renegotiation fees from our same store rental income to
allow us to evaluate the growth or decline in each propertys rental income without regard to
items that are not indicative of the propertys recurring operating performance. Net
termination and renegotiation fees represent the gross fee negotiated to allow a customer to
terminate or renegotiate their lease, offset by the write-off of the asset recognized due to
the adjustment to straight-line rents over the lease term. The adjustments to remove these
items are included as effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and other in the
tables above. |
|
(3) |
|
These amounts include rental income, rental expenses and net operating income of both our
consolidated industrial properties and those owned by our unconsolidated investees (accounted
for on the equity method) and managed by us. |
|
(4) |
|
Rental expenses in the same store portfolio include the direct operating expenses of the
property such as property taxes, insurance, utilities, etc. In addition, we include an
allocation of the property management expenses for our direct-owned properties based on the
property management fee that is provided for in the individual management agreements under
which our wholly owned management companies provide property management services to each
property (generally, the fee is based on a percentage of revenues). On consolidation, the
management fee income earned by the management company and the management fee expense
recognized by the properties are eliminated and the actual costs of providing property
management services are recognized as part of our consolidated rental expenses. These expenses
fluctuate based on the level of properties included in the same store portfolio and any
adjustment is included as effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and other in
the above table. |

Environmental Matters
A majority of the properties acquired by us were subjected to environmental reviews either by us or
the previous owners. While some of these assessments have led to further investigation and
sampling, none of the environmental assessments have revealed an environmental liability that we
believe would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of
operations.
We record a liability for the estimated costs of environmental remediation to be incurred in
connection with certain operating properties we acquire, as well as certain land parcels we acquire
in connection with the planned development of the land. The liability is established to cover the
environmental remediation costs, including cleanup costs, consulting fees for studies and
investigations, monitoring costs and legal costs relating to cleanup, litigation defense, and the
pursuit of responsible third parties. We purchase various environmental insurance policies to
mitigate our exposure to environmental liabilities. We are not aware of any environmental liability
that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or
results of operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We consider our ability to generate cash from operating activities, dispositions of properties and
from available financing sources to be adequate to meet our anticipated future development,
acquisition, operating, debt service and shareholder distribution requirements.
Near-Term Principal Cash Sources and Uses
In addition to common share distributions and preferred share dividend requirements, we expect our
primary cash needs will consist of the following:
|
|
completion of the development and leasing of the properties in our development portfolio
(a); |
|
|
investments in current or future unconsolidated investees (b); |
|
|
development of new properties for long-term investment, primarily in our major logistics
corridors; |
|
|
repayment of debt, including payments on our credit facility
(Global Line) and repurchases of senior notes
and/or convertible senior notes; |
|
|
scheduled debt principal payments in the remainder of 2011 of $172.3 million (c); |
|
|
capital expenditures and leasing costs on properties; |
|
|
depending on market conditions, direct acquisition of operating properties and/or
portfolios of operating properties in key distribution markets for direct, long-term
investment; and |
|
|
merger and integration expenses. |
|
|
|
(a) |
|
As of March 31, 2011, we had 16 properties under development that were 68.9% leased
with a current investment of $454.7 million and a total expected investment of $659.3
million when completed and leased, leaving $204.6 million remaining to be spent. |
|
(b) |
|
Subsequent to March 31, 2011, we increased our ownership percentage in PEPR and
launched a mandatory tender offer. If we acquired all of the
outstanding units that we do not own as of March 31, 2011, at the
current offer price of
6.20 per unit, the total
consideration would be approximately 811 million ($1.2 billion at May 2, 2011). We expect to fund the
purchase of these units by drawing on our existing Global Line and with funds borrowed
through a new 500 million ($741.9 million at May 2, 2011) bridge loan obtained in April
2011. See Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item I. |
|
(c) |
|
On April 13, 2011, we repaid 101.3 million ($146.8 million) of our euro notes, leaving
$29.1 million to be repaid. |
We expect to fund our cash needs principally from the following sources, all subject to market
conditions:
|
|
available cash balances ($24.7 million at March 31, 2011); |
|
|
fees and incentives earned for services performed on behalf of the property funds and
distributions received from the property funds; |
|
|
proceeds from the disposition of properties, land parcels or other investments to third
parties; |
|
|
proceeds from the contributions of properties to property funds or other unconsolidated
investees; |
|
|
borrowing capacity under our Global Line ($1.3 billion available as of March 31, 2011),
other facilities or borrowing arrangements; |
|
|
proceeds from the issuance of equity securities, including sales under our at-the-market
equity issuance program (under which we have 48.1 million common shares remaining); and
|
26
|
|
proceeds from the issuance of debt securities, including secured mortgage debt. |
We may repurchase our outstanding debt securities through cash purchases, in open market purchases,
privately negotiated transactions, tender offers or otherwise. Such repurchases will depend on
prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other
factors. We have approximately $84.1 million remaining on authorization to repurchase common
shares that was approved by our Board in 2001. We have not repurchased our common shares since
2003.
Cash Provided by Operating Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, operating activities provided net cash of $2.6
million and $10.9 million, respectively. In the first three months of 2011 and 2010, cash provided by operating activities was less than the cash distributions paid on common shares and
dividends paid on preferred shares by $67.8 million and $67.2 million, respectively. In 2011, the
decrease in cash provided by operating activities was largely due to an increase in prepaid assets.
Cash Investing and Cash Financing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, investing activities provided net cash of
$178.3 million and used net cash of $11.1 million, respectively. The following are the significant
activities for both periods presented:
|
|
We generated cash from dispositions of $394.5 million and $180.9 million during 2011 and
2010, respectively. In 2011, we disposed of land, land subject to ground leases and 34 properties that included the majority
of our non-core assets. In 2010, we disposed of land and 10 properties. |
|
|
We invested $217.7 million in real estate during 2011 and $105.7 million for the same
period in 2010; including costs for current and future development projects and recurring
capital expenditures and tenant improvements on existing operating properties. |
|
|
We received distributions from unconsolidated investees as a return of investment of $38.7
million and $27.3 million during 2011 and 2010, respectively. |
|
|
We generated net cash proceeds from payments on notes receivable of $6.5 million and $13.6
million in 2011 and 2010, respectively. |
|
|
In 2011, we invested $55.0 million in a preferred equity interest in a subsidiary of the
buyer of a portfolio of non-core assets. |
|
|
In 2011, we received advances, net of repayments, from
unconsolidated investees of $11.3 million.
In 2010, we invested cash of $127.3 million in unconsolidated investees including
investments in connection with a property contribution we made, net of repayment of advances by
the investees. |
For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, financing activities used net cash of $195.2
million and provided net cash of $22.4 million, respectively. The following are the significant
activities for both periods presented:
|
|
In March 2011, we incurred $164.5 million in secured mortgage debt. In March 2010, we
issued $1.1 billion of senior notes due 2017 and 2020 and $460.0 million of convertible senior
notes due 2015 and incurred $86.7 million in secured mortgage debt. |
|
|
We had net payments on our Global Line of $269.8 million and $561.2 million during 2011 and
2010, respectively. |
|
|
We made net payments of $16.4 million and $30.5 million on regularly scheduled debt
principal and maturity payments during 2011 and 2010, respectively. |
|
|
In 2010, we purchased and extinguished $957.7 million original principal amount of our
senior and convertible notes and secured mortgage debt for $961.1 million. |
|
|
We paid distributions of $64.0 million and $71.7 million to our common shareholders during
2011 and 2010, respectively. We paid dividends on our preferred shares of $6.4 million during
both 2011 and 2010. |
|
|
We generated proceeds from the sale and issuance of common shares under our various common
share plans of $28.3 million in 2010, primarily from our at-the-market equity issuance
program. |
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Property Fund Debt
We had investments in and advances to the property funds at March 31, 2011 of $2.0 billion. The
property funds had total third party debt of $8.0 billion (for the entire entity, not our
proportionate share) at March 31, 2011 that matures as follows (in millions):

As of March 31, 2011, we had not guaranteed any of the third party debt of the property
funds. See notes (2) and (3) below. In our role as the manager of the property funds, we work
with the property funds to refinance their maturing debt. As noted in note (3) below,
remaining 2011 maturities have been substantially addressed. There can be no assurance that
the property funds will be able to refinance any maturing indebtedness on terms as favorable
as the maturing debt, or at all. If the property funds are unable to refinance the maturing
indebtedness with newly issued debt, they may be able to obtain funds by voluntary capital
contributions from us and our fund partners or by selling assets. Certain of the property
funds also have credit facilities, which may be used to obtain funds. Generally, the property
funds issue long-term debt and utilize the proceeds to repay borrowings under the credit
facilities. |
|
(2) |
|
We have a note receivable from this property fund that bears interest at 8%, matures in May
2015 and is secured by 12 buildings in the property fund. As of March 31, 2011 the balance was
$78.9 million. This loan is not presented in the table as it is not third party debt. In addition, we have
pledged properties we own directly, valued at approximately $273.7 million, to serve as
additional collateral on a loan payable to an affiliate of our fund partner that is due in
2014. |
|
(3) |
|
We have a note receivable from this property fund. The outstanding balance at March 31, 2011
was $21.4 million and is not included in the maturities above as it is not third party debt.
In addition, this property fund has received a loan extension proposal from the lender of its
debt that matures in July 2011 to extend the maturity to March 2012. |
Contractual Obligations
Distribution and Dividend Requirements
Our common share distribution policy is to distribute a percentage of our cash flow to ensure we
will meet the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, relative
to maintaining our REIT status, while still allowing us to maximize the cash retained to meet other
cash needs such as capital improvements and other investment activities.
We paid a cash distribution of $0.1125 per common share for the first quarter on February 28, 2011.
On May 5, 2011, our Board declared the second quarter distribution of $0.1125 per common share that
will be payable on May 25, 2011 to shareholders of record on May 16, 2011. Our future common share
distributions may vary and will be determined by our Board upon the circumstances prevailing at the
time, including our financial condition, operating results and REIT distribution requirements, and
may be adjusted at the discretion of the Board during the year.
At March 31, 2011, we had three series of preferred shares outstanding. The annual dividend rates
on preferred shares are $4.27 per Series C preferred share, $1.69 per Series F preferred share and
$1.69 per Series G preferred share. The dividends are payable quarterly in arrears on the last day
of each quarter.
Pursuant to the terms of our preferred shares, we are restricted from declaring or paying any
distribution with respect to our common shares unless and until all cumulative dividends with
respect to the preferred shares have been paid and sufficient funds have been set aside for
dividends that have been declared for the then current dividend period with respect to the
preferred shares.
Other Commitments
As discussed in Note 5 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Item I, we entered into
a definitive agreement in December 2010 to sell a portfolio of non-core assets.
We sold a majority of this portfolio in the first quarter of 2011
and expect the remainder to close in the second quarter of 2011.
On a continuing basis, we are engaged in various stages of negotiations for the acquisition and/or
disposition of individual properties or portfolios of properties.
New Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1.
Funds from Operations (FFO)
FFO is a non-GAAP measure that is commonly used in the real estate industry. The most directly
comparable GAAP measure to FFO is net earnings. Although National Association of Real Estate
Investment Trusts (NAREIT) has published a definition of FFO, modifications to the
28
NAREIT calculation of FFO are common among REITs, as companies seek to provide financial measures
that meaningfully reflect their business.
FFO is not meant to represent a comprehensive system of financial reporting and does not present,
nor do we intend it to present, a complete picture of our financial condition and operating
performance. We believe net earnings computed under GAAP remains the primary measure of performance
and that FFO is only meaningful when it is used in conjunction with net earnings computed under
GAAP. Further, we believe our consolidated financial statements, prepared in accordance with GAAP,
provide the most meaningful picture of our financial condition and our operating performance.
NAREITs FFO measure adjusts net earnings computed under GAAP to exclude historical cost
depreciation and gains and losses from the sales of previously depreciated properties. We agree
that these two NAREIT adjustments are useful to investors for the following reasons:
(i) |
|
historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP assumes, through
depreciation charges, that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time.
NAREIT stated in its White Paper on FFO since real estate asset values have historically
risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors have considered presentations
of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be
insufficient by themselves. Consequently, NAREITs definition of FFO reflects the fact that
real estate, as an asset class, generally appreciates over time and depreciation charges
required by GAAP do not reflect the underlying economic realities. |
|
(ii) |
|
REITs were created as a legal form of organization in order to encourage public ownership of
real estate as an asset class through investment in firms that were in the business of
long-term ownership and management of real estate. The exclusion, in NAREITs definition of
FFO, of gains and losses from the sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets
allows investors and analysts to readily identify the operating results of the long-term
assets that form the core of a REITs activity and assists in comparing those operating
results between periods. We include the gains and losses from dispositions of land,
development properties, as well as our proportionate share of the gains and losses from
dispositions recognized by the property funds, in our definition of FFO. |
Our FFO Measures
At the same time that NAREIT created and defined its FFO measure for the REIT industry, it also
recognized that management of each of its member companies has the responsibility and authority to
publish financial information that it regards as useful to the financial community. We believe
shareholders, potential investors and financial analysts who review our operating results are best
served by a defined FFO measure that includes other adjustments to net earnings computed under GAAP
in addition to those included in the NAREIT defined measure of FFO. Our FFO measures are used by
management in analyzing our business and the performance of our properties and we believe that it
is important that shareholders, potential investors and financial analysts understand the measures
management uses.
We use our FFO measures as supplemental financial measures of operating performance. We do not use
our FFO measures as, nor should they be considered to be, alternatives to net earnings computed
under GAAP, as indicators of our operating performance, as alternatives to cash from operating
activities computed under GAAP or as indicators of our ability to fund our cash needs.
FFO, as defined by ProLogis
To arrive at FFO, as defined by ProLogis, we adjust the NAREIT defined FFO measure to exclude:
(i) |
|
deferred income tax benefits and deferred income tax expenses recognized by our subsidiaries; |
|
(ii) |
|
current income tax expense related to acquired tax liabilities that were recorded as deferred
tax liabilities in an acquisition, to the extent the expense is offset with a deferred income
tax benefit in GAAP earnings that is excluded from our defined FFO measure; |
|
(iii) |
|
certain foreign currency exchange gains and losses resulting from certain debt transactions
between us and our foreign consolidated subsidiaries and our foreign unconsolidated investees; |
|
(iv) |
|
foreign currency exchange gains and losses from the remeasurement (based on current foreign
currency exchange rates) of certain third party debt of our foreign consolidated subsidiaries
and our foreign unconsolidated investees; and |
|
(v) |
|
mark-to-market adjustments associated with derivative financial instruments utilized to
manage foreign currency and interest rate risks. |
We calculate FFO, as defined by ProLogis for our unconsolidated investees on the same basis as we
calculate our FFO, as defined by ProLogis.
We use this FFO measure, including by segment and region, to: (i) evaluate our performance and the
performance of our properties in comparison to expected results and results of previous periods,
relative to resource allocation decisions; (ii) evaluate the performance of our management; (iii)
budget and forecast future results to assist in the allocation of resources; (iv) assess our
performance as compared to similar real estate companies and the industry in general; and (v)
evaluate how a specific potential investment will impact our future results. Because we make
decisions with regard to our performance with a long-term outlook, we believe it is appropriate to
remove the effects of short-term items that we do not expect to affect the underlying long-term
performance of the properties. The long-term performance of our properties is principally driven by
rental income. While not infrequent or unusual, these additional items we exclude in calculating
FFO, as defined by ProLogis, are subject to significant fluctuations from period to period that
cause both positive and negative short-term effects on our results of operations, in inconsistent
and unpredictable directions that are not relevant to our long-term outlook.
We believe investors are best served if the information that is made available to them allows them
to align their analysis and evaluation of our operating results along the same lines that our
management uses in planning and executing our business strategy.
29
FFO, excluding significant non-cash items
When we began to experience the effects of the global economic crises in the fourth quarter of
2008, we decided that FFO, as defined by ProLogis, did not provide all of the information we needed
to evaluate our business in this environment. As a result, we developed FFO, excluding significant
non-cash items to provide additional information that allows us to better evaluate our operating
performance in this unprecedented economic time.
To arrive at FFO, excluding significant non-cash items, we adjust FFO, as defined by ProLogis, to
exclude the following items that we recognized directly or our share recognized by our
unconsolidated investees:
Non-recurring items
(i) |
|
impairment charges related to the sale of our China operations; |
|
(ii) |
|
impairment charges of goodwill; and |
|
(iii) |
|
our share of the losses recognized by PEPR on the sale of its investment in PEPF II. |
Recurring items
(i) |
|
impairment charges of completed development properties that we contributed or expect to
contribute to a property fund; |
|
(ii) |
|
impairment charges of land or other real estate properties that we sold or expect to sell; |
|
(iii) |
|
impairment charges of other non-real estate assets, including equity investments; |
|
(iv) |
|
our share of impairment charges of real estate that is sold or expected to be sold by an unconsolidated investee; and |
|
(v) |
|
gains or losses from the early extinguishment of debt. |
We believe that these items, both recurring and non-recurring, are driven by factors relating to
the fundamental disruption in the global financial and real estate markets, rather than factors
specific to the company or the performance of our properties or investments.
The impairment charges of real estate properties that we have recognized were primarily based on
valuations of real estate, which had declined due to market conditions, that we no longer expected
to hold for long-term investment. In order to generate liquidity, we decided to sell our China
operations in the fourth quarter of 2008 at a loss and, therefore, we recognized an impairment
charge. Also, to generate liquidity, we have contributed or intend to contribute certain completed
properties to property funds and sold or intend to sell certain land parcels or properties to third
parties. To the extent these properties are expected to be sold at a loss, we record an impairment
charge when the loss is known. The impairment charges related to goodwill and other assets that we
have recognized were similarly caused by the decline in the real estate markets.
Certain of our unconsolidated investees have recognized and may continue to recognize similar
impairment charges of real estate that they expect to sell, which impacts our equity in earnings of
such investees.
In connection with our announced initiatives to reduce debt and extend debt maturities, we have
purchased portions of our debt securities. As a result, we recognized net gains or losses on the
early extinguishment of certain debt. Certain of our unconsolidated investees have recognized or
may recognize similar gains or losses, which impacts our equity in earnings of such investees.
During this turbulent time, we have recognized certain of these recurring charges and gains over
several quarters since the fourth quarter of 2008. We believe that as the economy stabilizes, our
liquidity needs change and since the remaining capital available to the existing unconsolidated
property funds to acquire our completed development properties expired, the potential for
impairment charges on real estate properties will diminish to an immaterial amount. As we continue
to monetize our land bank through development or dispositions, we may dispose of this land at a
gain or loss. We may also dispose of other non-strategic assets at a gain or loss. However, we do
not expect that we will adjust our FFO measure for these gains or losses after 2010.
We analyze our operating performance primarily by the rental income of our real estate, net of
operating, administrative and financing expenses, which is not directly impacted by short-term
fluctuations in the market value of our real estate or debt securities. As a result, although
these significant non-cash items have had a material impact on our operations and are reflected in
our financial statements, the removal of the effects of these items allows us to better understand
the core operating performance of our properties over the long-term.
As described above, we began using FFO, excluding significant non-cash items, including by segment
and region, to: (i) evaluate our performance and the performance of our properties in comparison to
expected results and results of previous periods, relative to resource allocation decisions; (ii)
evaluate the performance of our management; (iii) budget and forecast future results to assist in
the allocation of resources; (iv) assess our performance as compared to similar real estate
companies and the industry in general; and (v) evaluate how a specific potential investment will
impact our future results. Because we make decisions with regard to our performance with a
long-term outlook, we believe it is appropriate to remove the effects of short-term items that we
do not expect to affect the underlying long-term performance of the properties we own. As noted
above, we believe the long-term performance of our properties is principally driven by rental
income. We believe investors are best served if the information that is made available to them
allows them to align their analysis and evaluation of our operating results along the same lines
that our management uses in planning and executing our business strategy.
30
As the impact of these recurring items dissipates, we expect that the usefulness of FFO, excluding
significant non-cash items will similarly dissipate and we will go back to using only FFO, as
defined by ProLogis.
Limitations on Use of our FFO Measures
While we believe our defined FFO measures are important supplemental measures, neither NAREITs nor
our measures of FFO should be used alone because they exclude significant economic components of
net earnings computed under GAAP and are, therefore, limited as an analytical tool. Accordingly
they are two of many measures we use when analyzing our business. Some of these limitations are:
|
|
The current income tax expenses that are excluded from our defined FFO measures represent
the taxes that are payable. |
|
|
Depreciation and amortization of real estate assets are economic costs that are excluded
from FFO. FFO is limited, as it does not reflect the cash requirements that may be necessary
for future replacements of the real estate assets. Further, the amortization of capital
expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of industrial
properties are not reflected in FFO. |
|
|
Gains or losses from property dispositions represent changes in the value of the disposed
properties. By excluding these gains and losses, FFO does not capture realized changes in the
value of disposed properties arising from changes in market conditions. |
|
|
The deferred income tax benefits and expenses that are excluded from our defined FFO
measures result from the creation of a deferred income tax asset or liability that may have to
be settled at some future point. Our defined FFO measures do not currently reflect any income
or expense that may result from such settlement. |
|
|
The foreign currency exchange gains and losses that are excluded from our defined FFO
measures are generally recognized based on movements in foreign currency exchange rates
through a specific point in time. The ultimate settlement of our foreign currency-denominated
net assets is indefinite as to timing and amount. Our FFO measures are limited in that they do
not reflect the current period changes in these net assets that result from periodic foreign
currency exchange rate movements. |
|
|
The non-cash impairment charges that we exclude from our FFO, excluding significant
non-cash items, have been or may be realized as a loss in the future upon the ultimate
disposition of the related real estate properties or other assets through the form of lower
cash proceeds. |
|
|
The gains on extinguishment of debt that we exclude from our FFO, excluding significant
non-cash items, provides a benefit to us as we are settling our debt at less than our future
obligation. |
We compensate for these limitations by using our FFO measures only in conjunction with net earnings
computed under GAAP when making our decisions. To assist investors in compensating for these

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes and foreign-exchange related variability and
earnings volatility on our foreign investments. We have used certain derivative financial
instruments, primarily foreign currency put option and forward contracts, to reduce our foreign
currency market risk, as we deem appropriate. We have also used interest rate swap agreements to
reduce our interest rate market risk. We do not use financial instruments for trading or
speculative purposes and all financial instruments are entered into in accordance with established
policies and procedures.
We monitor our market risk exposures using a sensitivity analysis. Our sensitivity analysis
estimates the exposure to market risk sensitive instruments assuming a hypothetical 10% adverse
change in interest rates. The results of the sensitivity analysis are summarized below.
The sensitivity analysis is of limited predictive value. As a result, our ultimate realized gains
or losses with respect to interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations will depend
on the exposures that arise during a future period, hedging strategies at the time and the
prevailing interest and foreign currency exchange rates.
Interest Rate Risk
Our interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of future interest rate changes
on earnings and cash flows. To achieve this objective, we primarily borrow on a fixed rate basis
for longer-term debt issuances. At March 31, 2011, we have ¥37.3 billion ($450.6 million) in TMK
bond agreements with variable interest rates. Upon issuance, we entered into interest rate swap
agreements to fix the interest rate on ¥23.0 billion ($268.1 million as of March 31, 2011) of the
TMK bonds for the term of the agreements. We have no other derivative contracts outstanding at
March 31, 2011.
Our primary interest rate risk is created by the variable rate Global Line. During the three months
ended March 31, 2011, we had weighted average daily outstanding borrowings of $565.0 million on our
variable rate Global Line. Based on the results of the sensitivity analysis, which assumed a 10%
adverse change in interest rates, the estimated market risk exposure for the variable rate lines of
credit was approximately $0.5 million of cash flow for the three months ended March 31, 2011.
Foreign Currency Risk
Foreign currency risk is the possibility that our financial results could be better or worse than
planned because of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
32
Our primary exposure to foreign currency exchange rates relates to the translation of the net
income of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars, principally euro, British pound sterling and
yen. To mitigate our foreign currency exchange exposure, we borrow in the functional currency of
the borrowing entity, when appropriate. We also may use foreign currency put option contracts to
manage foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with the projected net operating income of
our foreign consolidated subsidiaries and unconsolidated investees. At March 31, 2011, we had no
put option contracts outstanding and, therefore, we may experience fluctuations in our earnings as
a result of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
We also have some exposure to movements in exchange rates related to certain intercompany loans we
issue from time to time and we may use foreign currency forward contracts to manage these risks. At
March 31, 2011, we had no forward contracts outstanding and, therefore, we may experience
fluctuations in our earnings from the remeasurement of these intercompany loans due to changes in
foreign currency exchange rates.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management,
including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-14(c)) under the Securities and Exchange
Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2011. Based on this evaluation, the Chief
Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and
procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that we
file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the
time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms.
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during our most recent
fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our
internal control over financial reporting.
PART II
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we and our unconsolidated investees are party to a variety of legal proceedings
arising in the ordinary course of business. We believe that, with respect to any such matters that
we are currently a party to, the ultimate disposition of any such matters will not result in a
material adverse effect on our business, financial position or results of operations.
Following the announcement of the merger agreement, several lawsuits were filed. Three actions were
filed in the District Court for the City and County of Denver, Colorado. These cases have been
consolidated, and on or about April 1, 2011, plaintiffs filed a consolidated class action complaint
against ProLogis, the members of our Board of Trustees (the Board), AMB, New Pumpkin Inc. (New
Pumpkin), Upper Pumpkin LLC (Upper Pumpkin), Pumpkin LLC (Pumpkin) and AMB LP. The complaint
alleges that the Board breached their fiduciary duties in connection with entering into the merger
agreement and that we, AMB, New Pumpkin, Upper Pumpkin, Pumpkin and AMB LP aided and abetted the
breaches of those fiduciary duties. The complaint further alleges that the registration statement
that was filed along with the joint proxy statement/prospectus contained material omissions and
misstatements. The plaintiffs seek, among other relief, an order to (i) enjoin the defendants from
consummating the merger unless and until we adopt and implement a procedure or process reasonably
designed to enter into a merger agreement providing the best possible value for our shareholders;
(ii) direct the defendants to exercise their fiduciary duties to obtain a transaction that is in
the best interests of our shareholders and to refrain from entering into any transaction until the
process for the sale or merger of ProLogis is completed and the highest possible value obtained;
(iii) rescind the merger agreement, to the extent already implemented; and (iv) award plaintiffs
costs and disbursements of the action. Defendants have moved to stay the Colorado action in favor
of the Maryland action described below. Plaintiffs have moved for expedited discovery, and the
defendants have opposed that motion.
Two actions were filed in the Circuit Court of Maryland for Baltimore City. The actions have been
consolidated, and the plaintiffs filed a consolidated class action and derivative complaint on or
about March 28, 2011. The Maryland consolidated complaint names the same defendants as the Colorado
consolidated complaint. The complaint alleges that the members of the Board breached their
fiduciary duties in connection with the merger and that AMB and AMB LP aided and abetted the
breaches of those fiduciary duties. The complaint further alleges that the registration statement
that was filed along with the joint proxy statement/prospectus is misleading and incomplete. The
plaintiffs in this action seek, among other relief, an order to: (i) enjoin, preliminarily and
permanently, the merger; (ii) rescind the merger in the event it is consummated or award rescissory
damages; (iii) direct the defendants to account to plaintiffs and all other members of the class
for all damages, profits and any special benefits defendants obtained as a result of their breaches
of fiduciary duties; and (iv) award plaintiffs the costs of the action. Defendants have moved to
dismiss the Maryland action for failure to state a claim and to stay all discovery pending a ruling
on their motion to dismiss. Plaintiffs have moved for expedited discovery in advance of a
preliminary injunction hearing.
On April 15, 2011, the parties to the Maryland action executed a memorandum of understanding that
embodies their agreement in principle on the structure of a proposed settlement. The proposed
settlement, which is subject to confirmatory discovery and court approval following notice to the
class of all or our shareholders during the period from January 30, 2011 through the date of the
consummation of the merger (which we refer to as the Class), would dismiss all causes of action
asserted in the Maryland consolidated complaint and release all claims that members of the Class
may have arising out of or relating in any manner to the merger, including all claims being
asserted in the Colorado action. Pursuant to the terms of the proposed settlement, defendants
agreed to make certain disclosures to shareholders in their joint proxy statement/prospectus. The
parties reported to the Maryland court on April 18, 2011 that they had reached agreement on a
proposed settlement and executed a memorandum of understanding. On April 27, 2011, the parties to
the consolidated action in Colorado reached an agreement in principle on the structure of a
proposed settlement. Under the proposed settlement, which is subject to confirmatory discovery and
approval of the Maryland court following notice to the Class, defendants agreed to make additional
disclosures in their joint proxy statement/prospectus.
The defendants believe that the claims asserted against them in these lawsuits are without merit
and, absent court approval of the proposed settlement, intend to defend themselves vigorously
against the claims.
