PROLOGIS
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
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. Through 2008, our business consisted of three
reportable business segments: (i) direct owned; (ii) investment management; and (iii) CDFS
business. 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 joint ventures and the properties they own. Our CDFS business segment primarily
encompassed our development or acquisition of real estate properties that were generally
contributed to a property fund in which we had an ownership interest and act as manager, or sold to
third parties. Changes in global economic conditions resulted in changes to our business strategy
and, therefore, as of December 31, 2008, our business strategy no longer includes a focus on the
CDFS Business segment. See Note 11 for further discussion of our business segments.
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, 2009 and our results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31,
2009 and 2008 have been included. 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, 2008 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 2008 have been
restated due to the required retroactive application of a new accounting standard that we adopted
as of January 1, 2009, as further discussed below. In addition, in 2009 we are reporting the
direct costs associated with our investment management segment as Investment Management Expenses in
our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). These costs include the
property management expenses associated with the property-level management of the properties owned
by the property funds (previously included in Rental Expenses) and the investment management
expenses associated with the asset management of the property funds (previously included in General
and Administrative Expenses). Therefore, we have reclassified these expenses in 2008, as well as
certain other 2008 amounts to conform to the 2009 financial statement presentation.
Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements. We adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) Staff Position No. FAS 157-2 Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (FSP FAS 157-2)
that establishes a framework for measuring fair value of non-financial assets and liabilities that
are not required or permitted to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis but only in certain
circumstances, such as a business combination, as of January 1, 2009. The adoption of FSP FAS 157-2
did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R Business Combinations (SFAS 141R) and
SFAS No. 160 Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements An Amendment of ARB
No. 51 (SFAS 160). SFAS 141R and SFAS 160 require most identifiable assets, liabilities,
noncontrolling interests and goodwill acquired in a business combination to be recorded at full
fair value and require noncontrolling interests
7
PROLOGIS
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(Unaudited)
(previously referred to as minority interests) to be reported as a component of equity, which
changes the accounting for transactions with noncontrolling interest holders. SFAS 141R applies to
business combinations occurring after the effective date, including any that existed at the
effective date. SFAS 141R broadens the scope of what qualifies as a business combination to include
the acquisition of an operating property by us and our unconsolidated investees. Transaction costs
related to the acquisition of a business that were previously capitalized are expensed under
SFAS 141R. The transaction costs related to the acquisition of land and equity method investments
continue to be capitalized. SFAS 141R requires subsequent adjustments of tax uncertainties that
occur after the purchase price allocation period to be recognized in earnings. Previously, these
adjustments were recognized in the purchase price as an adjustment to goodwill. The initial
adoption of SFAS 141R, as of January 1, 2009, did not have a material impact on our financial
position or results of operations. The adoption of SFAS 160, as of January 1, 2009 changed the
classification and reporting of our noncontrolling interests (previously referred to as minority
interests). The provisions of both SFAS 141R and SFAS 160 may have more significant impacts on our
consolidated financial statements in the future depending on our acquisition activity and any
potential changes to our tax uncertainties.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 (SFAS 161). SFAS 161 requires enhanced
disclosures related to derivative instruments and hedging activities. SFAS 161 requires
disclosures relating to: (i) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (ii) how derivative
instruments and related hedge items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities; and (iii) how derivative instruments and related
hedged items affect an entitys financial position, financial performance and cash flows. We
adopted the provisions of SFAS 161 to be applied prospectively on January 1, 2009. As the standard
only requires enhanced disclosures, the adoption of SFAS 161 did not have a significant impact on
our consolidated financial statements.
In May 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position APB 14-1 Accounting for Convertible Debt
Instruments that May Be Settled in Cash Upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement) (FSP
APB 14-1), that requires separate accounting for the debt and equity components of convertible
debt. The value assigned to the debt component is the estimated fair value at the date of issuance
of a similar bond without the conversion feature, which results in the debt being recorded at a
discount. The resulting debt discount is amortized over the remaining life of the debt (generally
the first redemption date in 2012 and 2013 for our outstanding convertible notes) as additional
non-cash interest expense. We adopted FSP APB 14-1 on January 1, 2009 on a retroactive basis to the
convertible notes we issued in 2007 and 2008. As a result, we restated 2008 amounts to reflect the
adjustment to debt and equity, as well as the additional interest expense. This restatement also
impacted the interest we would have capitalized related to our development activities for both
properties we currently own, as well as properties that were contributed or sold during the periods
the convertible notes were outstanding.
The following tables illustrate the impact of FSP APB 14-1 on our Consolidated Balance Sheet and

thousands):

2. Sale of China Operations and Property Fund Interest in Japan
On February 9, 2009, we sold our operations in China and our property fund interests in Japan to
affiliates of GIC Real Estate, the real estate investment company of the Government of Singapore
Investment Corporation (GIC RE), for total cash consideration of $1.3 billion ($845.5 million
related to China and $500.0 million related to the Japan investments). The proceeds were used
primarily to pay down borrowings on our credit facilities.
All of the assets and liabilities associated with our China operations were classified as Assets
and Liabilities Held for Sale in our accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31,
2008. In the fourth quarter of 2008, based on the carrying values of these assets and liabilities,
as compared with the estimated sales proceeds less costs to sell, we recognized an impairment of
$198.2 million. In connection with the sale in the first quarter of 2009, we recognized a $3.3
million gain. The results of our China operations are presented as discontinued operations in our
accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for all periods.
In connection with the sale of our investments in the Japan property funds, we recognized a net
gain of $180.2 million. The gain is reflected as CDFS Proceeds in our Consolidated Statements of
Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss), as it represents the recognition of previously deferred
gains on the contribution of properties to the property funds based on our ownership interest in
the property funds at the time of original contribution. We also recognized $20.5 million in
current income tax expense related to the Japan portion of the transaction.
In addition to selling our China operations and property fund interests in Japan, we entered into
an agreement to sell one property in Japan to GIC RE. Therefore, this property was classified as
Held for Sale in our accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2009 and December 31,
2008, along with borrowings of $108.6 million under our credit facilities, and its operations have
been included in discontinued operations for all periods presented in our accompanying Consolidated
Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). The Japan property was sold in April 2009
for proceeds of $128.0 million. See Note 5 for detail of all amounts included in discontinued
operations.

costs related to projects we are developing on behalf of others; (iii) costs related to our
corporate office buildings which we occupy; (iv) earnest money deposits associated with
potential acquisitions; and (v) restricted funds that are held in escrow pending the
completion of tax-deferred exchange transactions involving operating properties. |
At March 31, 2009, 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 and

Property Funds
We have investments in several property funds that own portfolios of operating industrial
properties. Many of these properties were originally developed by ProLogis and contributed to these
property funds, although certain of the property funds have also acquired properties from third
parties. When we contribute a property to a property fund, we may receive ownership interests
(based on our pre-contribution ownership in the fund) as part of the proceeds generated by the
contribution. 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, acquisition,
development, construction management, leasing and financing activities. We may also earn incentive
performance returns based on the investors returns over a specified period.
Summarized information regarding our proportionate share of net earnings or loss and fees and
incentives related to our investments in property funds is as follows (in thousands):

During 2008, PEPR owned approximately 30% of PEPF II. In December 2008, we purchased PEPRs
20% ownership interest in PEPF II. In February 2009, PEPR sold its remaining 10% interest in
PEPF II, and, therefore, we have only a direct ownership interest in PEPF II at March 31,
2009. |
|
(2) |
|
On February 9, 2009, we sold our interests in the Japan property funds resulting in the
recognition of a gain of $180.2 million and current income
tax expense of $20.5 million (see Note 2). |
Several property funds have equity commitments from us and our fund partners. We may fulfill our
equity commitment through property fund contributions or cash. Our fund partners fulfill the
commitment with cash. To the extent a property fund acquires properties from a third party or
requires cash to pay-off debt or has other cash needs, we may be required to contribute our
proportionate share of the equity component in cash to the property fund. During the three months
ended March 31, 2009, we contributed $34.5 million in connection with the contribution of nine
properties to PEPF II and the repayment of debt by ProLogis North American Industrial Fund.
Summarized financial information of the property funds (for the entire entity, not our
proportionate share) and our investment in such funds is presented below (dollars in millions):

In North America, certain property funds are or have been a party to interest rate swap
contracts that were initially designated as cash flow hedges and used to mitigate interest
expense volatility associated with movements of interest rates in future debt issuances.
Certain of these derivative contracts no longer met the requirements for hedge accounting and,
therefore, the change in fair value of these contracts was recorded through earnings, along
with the gain or loss on settlement of the contracts. Included in net earnings (loss) from
North America for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 are net losses of $26.4
million and $58.7 million, respectively, which represent the losses recognized from the change
in value and settlement of these contracts. We included our proportionate share of these
losses of $9.7 million and $21.3 million in Earnings (Loss) from Unconsolidated Property
Funds, Net for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, in our
Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). As of March 31, 2009,
ProLogis North American Industrial Fund II had outstanding interest rate swap contracts, with
notional amounts aggregating $223.2 million resulting in a liability at fair value of $43.3
million and swap rates ranging from 5.73% to 5.83%. |
|
|
|
For the instruments that qualify for hedge accounting, we have recorded our proportionate share
of the losses of $26.7 million as of March 31, 2009, in accumulated other comprehensive income.
Once these contracts are settled, the amount of the gain or loss upon settlement that is
recorded by the property funds in comprehensive income will be amortized as interest expense
over the life of the debt. |
|
|
|
In the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Japan property funds recorded losses of $51.7
million, which represent the unrealized losses associated with swap contracts that did not
qualify for hedge accounting. We included our proportionate share of these losses of $10.3
million in Earnings (Loss) from Unconsolidated Property Funds in our Consolidated Statements of
Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). |
|
(2) |
|
During the three months ended March 31, 2009, we and our fund partner each loaned ProLogis
North American Industrial Fund III $25.4 million that was used to repay maturing debt of the
property fund. The notes are payable at dissolution of the partnership and bear interest at
LIBOR plus 8%. In addition, as of March 31, 2009, ProLogis Mexico Industrial Fund has a note
payable to us for $14.3 million. |
|
(3) |
|
As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, we had not guaranteed any of the third party debt
of the property funds. |
|
(4) |
|
Represents our weighted average ownership interest in all property funds based on each
entitys contribution to total assets, before depreciation, net of other liabilities. |
|
(5) |
|
The difference between our ownership interest of 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 as a result of our continuing ownership in the property (see below); (ii) recording
additional costs associated with our investment in the property fund; and (iii) advances to
the property funds. |
|
(6) |
|
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. |
Other unconsolidated investees
At March 31, 2009, we had investments in entities that develop and own industrial and retail
properties, perform land and mixed-use development activity, own a hotel and own office properties.
The amounts we have recognized as our proportionate share of the earnings (loss) from our
investments in these investees, are summarized as follows (in thousands):

Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations: |
As discussed in Note 2, we sold our China operations in February 2009. We have presented all of our
China operations, along with the operations of the properties disposed of to third parties and the
aggregate net gains recognized upon their disposition and the results of properties classified as
held for sale as discontinued operations in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and
Comprehensive Income (Loss) for all periods presented. Interest expense is included in discontinued
operations only if it is directly attributable to these operations or properties.
At December 31, 2008, we classified all of the assets and liabilities associated with our China
operations as Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale in our accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet.
We also included one property in Japan that was sold to GIC RE in April 2009. At March 31, 2009, we
had two properties classified as held for sale, which included the one Japan building discussed
above.

The weighted average interest rate reflects the effective rate after the adoption of FSP APB
14-1. See Note 1. The weighted coupon interest rate was 2.2% for both periods. |
At March 31, 2009, our credit facilities provided aggregate borrowing capacity of $4.2 billion.
This includes our global line of credit, where a syndicate of banks allows us to draw funds in
U.S. dollar, euro, Japanese yen, British pound sterling, South Korean won and Canadian dollar
(Global Line). This also includes a multi-currency credit facility that allows us to borrow in
U.S. dollar, euro, Japanese yen, and British pound sterling (Credit Facility) and a 15.4 million
British pound sterling facility (Sterling Facility). The total commitments under our credit
facilities fluctuate in U.S. dollars based on the underlying currencies. Based on our public debt
ratings, interest on the borrowings under the Global Line and Credit Facility primarily accrues at
a variable rate based upon the interbank offered rate in each respective jurisdiction in which the
borrowings are outstanding (1.43% per annum at March 31, 2009 based on a weighted average using
local currency rates).
The Global Line and Credit Facility mature in October 2009; however, we can exercise a 12-month
extension at our option for all currencies, subject to certain customary conditions and the payment
of an extension fee. These customary conditions include: (i) we are not in default; (ii) we have
appropriately approved such an extension; and (iii) we certify that certain representations and
warranties, contained in the agreements, are true and correct in all material respects. We are
currently in discussions with the lead banks to recast, extend and reduce the commitment related to
the Global Line. The Credit Facility provides us the ability to re-borrow, within a specified
period of time, any amounts repaid on the facility. During the first quarter of 2009, we reduced
the commitment of the Sterling Facility, which matures December 31, 2009, to the balance of the
outstanding letters of credit.
As of March 31, 2009, under these facilities, we had outstanding borrowings of $2.0 billion and
letters of credit of $129.6 million (including $108.6 million of borrowings that are included in
Assets Held for Sale related to the building in Japan that we sold in April 2009), resulting in
remaining borrowing capacity of approximately $2.0 billion.

PROLOGIS
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(Unaudited)
We issued convertible senior notes, ($550.0 million in May 2008, $1.25 billion in March 2007 and
$1.12 billion in November 2007). We refer to the three convertible senior note issuances as
Convertible Notes.
The Convertible Notes are senior obligations of ProLogis and are convertible, under certain
circumstances, for cash, our common shares or a combination of cash and our common shares, at our
option, at a conversion rate per $1,000 of principal amount of the notes of 13.1614 shares for the
March 2007 issuance, 12.2926 shares for the November 2007 issuance and 13.1203 shares for the May
2008 issuance. The initial conversion price ($76.58 for the March 2007 issuance, $82.00 for the
November 2007 issuance and $76.22 for the May 2008 issuance) represented a premium of approximately
20% over the closing price of our common shares at the date of first sale and is subject to
adjustment under certain circumstances. The notes, issued in 2007 and 2008, are redeemable at our
option beginning in 2012 and 2013, respectively, for the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid
interest and at any time prior to maturity to the extent necessary to preserve our status as a
REIT. Holders of the notes have the right to require us to repurchase their notes for
cash on specific dates approximately every five years beginning in 2012 and 2013 and
at any time prior to their maturity upon certain limited circumstances. Therefore, we have
reflected these amounts in 2012 and 2013 in the schedule of debt maturities below based in the first redemption date.
While we have the legal right to settle the conversion in either cash or shares, we intend to
settle the principal balance of the Convertible Notes in cash and, therefore, we have not included
the effect of the conversion of these notes in our computation of diluted earnings per share. Based
on the current conversion rates, 36.8 million shares would be required to settle the principal
amount in shares. Such potentially dilutive shares, and the corresponding adjustment to interest
expense, are not included in our computation of diluted earnings per share. The amount in excess of
the principal balance of the notes (the Conversion Spread) will be settled in cash or, at our
option, ProLogis common shares. When the Conversion Spread becomes dilutive to our earnings per
share, (i.e., when our share price exceeds $75.98 for the March 2007 issuance, $81.35 for the
November 2007 issuance and $76.22 for the May 2008 issuance) we will include the shares in our
computation of diluted earnings per share.

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

Derivative Financial Instruments: |
We use derivative financial instruments to manage our risk associated with interest and foreign
currency exchange rate fluctuations on existing or anticipated obligations and transactions. We do
not use derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
Depending on the transaction involved, we generally use three types of derivative financial
instruments to mitigate these risks:
|
|
Interest Rate Swaps we may use interest rate swap agreements to assist in managing the interest rate risk on potential future debt issuances. 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. For
derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective
portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other
comprehensive income and reclassified to interest expense over the corresponding period of the
hedged item. Gains and losses on the derivative representing hedge ineffectiveness are
recognized in interest expense currently. |
|
|
Foreign currency forwards we may use foreign currency forward contracts to manage the
foreign currency fluctuations of intercompany loans not deemed
to be a long-term investment and certain transactions denominated in a currency other
than the entitys functional currency. These contracts are marked-to-market through earnings,
as they are not designated as hedges. The gains or losses resulting from these derivative
instruments are included in foreign currency exchange gains (losses), net. For contracts
associated with intercompany loans, the impact on earnings is generally offset by the
remeasurement gains and losses recognized on the related intercompany loans. |
|
|
Foreign currency put options we 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. These contracts are
marked-to-market through earnings in foreign currency exchange gains (losses), net, as they do
not qualify for hedge accounting treatment. |

During the first quarter of 2009, we entered into and settled forward contracts to buy yen to
manage the foreign currency fluctuations related to the sale of our Japan property funds and
recognized losses of $5.7 million. During the first quarter of 2008, we recognized losses of
$3.2 million associated with forward contracts on certain intercompany loans. These losses are
included in Foreign Currency Exchange Gains (Losses), Net, in our
Consolidated Statements of
Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). |

|
In March 2008, we entered into interest rate swap contracts to fix a portion of the interest
rate associated with the anticipated issuance of senior notes. These contracts were designated
as cash flow hedges, qualified for hedge accounting treatment and allowed us to lock in a
portion of the interest rate associated with the senior notes that were issued in the second
quarter of 2008. |

PROLOGIS
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
(Unaudited)
As discussed in Note 1, we modified our business strategy during the fourth quarter of 2008 to no
longer focus on the CDFS business segment. We made contributions and dispositions of CDFS
properties through December 2008 and have reported the results of operations of this activity
within this business segment. As of December 31, 2008, we transferred all of the assets from the
CDFS business segment into our two remaining segments. We now intend to principally hold the
properties we had previously planned to contribute, and, therefore, we have transferred these
assets to our direct owned segment. The investments we have in joint ventures have been transferred
to our investment management segment. Our current segments are as follows:
|
|
Direct Owned representing the direct long-term ownership of industrial distribution and
retail 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. 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
and South Korea). Also included in this segment is the development of properties for continued
direct ownership in this segment, including land held for development and properties currently
under development. In addition, in 2009, we also include the land we own and lease to
customers under ground leases that was previously included in our other operating segments.
Therefore, we have reclassified 2008 amounts to conform to the 2009 presentation. |
|
|
Investment Management representing the long-term investment management of property funds
and industrial and retail 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 joint ventures operating in North America, Europe and Asia. Along with the income
recognized under the equity method, we include fees and incentives earned for services
performed on behalf of the unconsolidated investees and interest income earned on advances to
unconsolidated investees, if any. We utilize our leasing and property management expertise to
efficiently manage the properties and our unconsolidated investees, and we allocate the costs
as Investment Management Expenses in this segment. 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, through January 2009, and South Korea). |
In addition, throughout 2008, we operated a third segment. As discussed above, due to changes in
our business strategy, we no longer expect to focus on this segment in 2009.
|
|
CDFS business primarily encompassed our development or acquisition of real estate
properties that were subsequently contributed to a property fund in which we had an ownership
interest and acted as manager, or sold to third parties. The proceeds and related costs of
these dispositions are presented as Developed and Repositioned Properties in the Consolidated
Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). In addition, we occasionally
acquired a portfolio of properties with the intent of contributing the portfolio to an
existing or future property fund. The proceeds and related costs of these dispositions are
presented as Acquired Property Portfolios in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and
Comprehensive Income (Loss). During the period between the completion of development or
acquisition of a property and the date the property is contributed to a property fund or sold
to a third party, the property and its associated rental income and rental expenses were
included in the direct owned segment because the primary activity associated with the property
during that period was leasing. Upon contribution or sale, the resulting gain or loss was
included in the income of the CDFS business segment. The separate activities in this segment
were considered to be individual operating segments having similar economic characteristics
that are combined within the reportable segment based upon geographic location. When a
property that we originally contributed to a property fund was sold to a third party, we
recognized any gain that was deferred due to our ownership interest in the property fund at
the time of contribution as CDFS proceeds. In 2009, the only activity being reported in the
CDFS segment is the gain on sale of our investments in the Japan property funds as it is
essentially the recapture of gains from this |

(Unaudited)
|
|
segment that were deferred due to our ownership interests at the time of the contribution. Our
CDFS business segment operations in 2008 were in North America (Canada, Mexico and the United
States), in Europe (the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands,
Poland, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom) and in Asia (Japan and South Korea). |
As a result of the changes in our business strategy and segments, we have restated the operating
results of certain items in prior years to agree to the current year segment presentation. We are
including the earnings (loss) recognized from our investments in retail and industrial joint
ventures that were previously reported in our CDFS business segment in the investment management
segment and certain expenses previously reported in the CDFS business segment are now reported in
the direct owned segment.
In addition, 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 years 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 earnings 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, earnings 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

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, 2009, the related consolidated statements of operations and
comprehensive income (loss) for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, and the
related statements of cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008. These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of ProLogis 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.
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company adopted FSP APB 14-1,
Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including
Partial Cash Settlement) as of January 1, 2009.
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, 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders equity and
comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our
report dated February 27, 2009, 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 March 31, 2009, 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 2008 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 of developed
properties, 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 Item 1A. Risk Factors in this report and in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K. All references
to we, us and our refer to ProLogis and our consolidated subsidiaries.
Managements Overview
We are a self-administered and self-managed 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.
The global financial markets have been undergoing pervasive and fundamental disruptions, which
began to impact us late in the third quarter of 2008. As the global credit crisis worsened in the
fourth quarter of 2008, it was prudent for us to modify our business strategy. As such, we
discontinued most of our new development and acquisition activities in order to focus on our core
business of owning and managing industrial properties. Narrowing our focus has allowed us to take
the necessary steps toward reducing our debt and maximizing liquidity and cash flow. We believe our
current business strategy, coupled with the following objectives for both the near and long-term,
will position us to take advantage of business opportunities upon the stabilization of the global
financial markets.
Our near-term objectives are to:
|
|
simplify our business model and focus on our core business; |
|
|
complete the development and leasing of properties currently in our development portfolio; |
|
|
manage our core portfolio of industrial distribution properties to maintain and improve our
net operating income stream from these assets; |
|
|
provide exceptional customer service to our current and future customers; |
|
|
generate liquidity through contributions of properties to our property funds and through
sales to third parties; |
|
|
reduce our debt at December 31, 2009 by at least $2.0 billion from our debt levels at
September 30, 2008, through debt retirements utilizing proceeds from property contributions
and dispositions, buying back outstanding debt and issuing additional equity (see further
discussion below of the actions we have taken in the first quarter and subsequent to March 31,
2009); |
25
|
|
recast our global line of credit; and |
|
|
reduce our general and administrative expenses through various cost savings initiatives,
including reductions in workforce. |
In the following discussion, we will address our progress on meeting these objectives.
Our longer-term objectives are to:
|
|
employ a conservative growth model; |
|
|
develop industrial properties utilizing a portion of our existing land parcels, which we
will hold for long-term direct investment, or otherwise monetize our land holdings through
dispositions; and |
|
|
grow the property funds by utilizing the property fund structure for the development of
properties and the opportunistic acquisition of properties from third parties. |
Our current business strategy includes two operating segments: (i) direct owned and (ii) investment
management. Our direct owned segment represents the direct long-term ownership of industrial and
retail properties. Our investment management segment represents the long-term investment management
of property funds and the properties they own.
We generate and seek to increase 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 and retail properties in key distribution markets. We may
refer to these properties as core properties or our core portfolio. Also included in this
segment are operating properties we developed with the intent to contribute the properties to
an unconsolidated property fund that we previously referred to as our CDFS Properties and,
beginning December 31, 2008, we now refer to as our completed development properties. In
addition, we have industrial properties that are currently under development (also included in
our development portfolio), land available for development and land subject to ground leases
that are part of this segment as well. |
|
|
|
We earn rent from our customers, including reimbursements of certain operating costs, under
long-term operating leases for the properties we own. The revenue in this segment has decreased
due to the contribution of properties to property funds, offset partially with increases in
occupancy levels within our development portfolio. However, leasing activity has slowed and
rental revenues generated by the lease-up of newly developed properties have not been adequate to
completely offset the loss of rental revenues from property contributions. We expect our total
revenues from this segment will continue to decrease in 2009 due to the contributions and
dispositions of properties we made in 2008 and may make in 2009. We intend to grow our revenue
in the remaining properties primarily through increases in occupied square feet in our
development portfolio. Our development portfolio, including completed development properties and
those currently under development, was 44.59% and 41.44% leased at March 31, 2009 and
December 31, 2008, 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. In
addition to the income recognized under the equity method, we recognize fees and incentives
earned for services performed on behalf of these entities and interest earned on advances to
these entities, if any. We provide services to these entities, such as property management,
asset management, acquisition, financing and development. We may also earn incentives from our
property funds depending on the return provided to the fund partners over a specified period.
We expect future growth in income recognized to result from growth in existing property funds,
primarily from properties the funds acquired from us in 2008 and may acquire, from us or third
parties, in 2009 and beyond, as well as the formation of future funds. |
|
|
|
CDFS Business Segment Our CDFS business segment primarily encompassed our development or
acquisition of real estate properties that were subsequently contributed to a property fund in
which we have an |
26
|
|
ownership interest and act as manager, or sold to third parties. As of December 31, 2008, all of
the assets and liabilities in this segment were transferred into our two remaining segments and
this segment is no longer a primary focus of our business strategy. In 2009, we recognized
income from the previously deferred gains from the Japan property funds that were deferred upon
original contributions and triggered with the sale of our investments. During the three months
ended March 31, 2008, we recognized income primarily from the contributions of developed,
rehabilitated and repositioned properties and acquired portfolios of properties to the property
funds as well as from dispositions of land and properties to third parties. The income was
generated due to the increased fair value of the properties at the time of contribution, based
on third party appraisals, and income was recognized only to the extent of the third party
ownership interest in the property fund acquiring the property. |
We have contributed and may continue to contribute completed development properties and/or core
properties to the property funds, or sell to third parties. Although, beginning in 2009, we report
these as net gains on dispositions rather than CDFS proceeds and cost of CDFS dispositions.
Key Transactions in 2009
|
|
In the first quarter of 2009, we sold our China operations and our investments in the Japan
property funds for $1.3 billion of cash. We entered into a sales agreement in December 2008,
at which time we recorded an impairment charge of $198.2 million on our China operations and
classified the assets and liabilities as held for sale. |
|
|
In connection with the sale of our investments in the Japan property funds,
we recognized a net gain of $180.2 million and $20.5 million of current income tax expense.
The gain is reflected as CDFS proceeds as it represents the
recognition of previously deferred gains on the contribution of properties to the property
funds based on our ownership interest in the property funds at the time of original
contributions. |
|
|
In the first three months of 2009, we generated aggregate proceeds of $135.7 million from
the contribution of nine properties to ProLogis European Properties Fund II and the sale of
land parcels to third parties. |
|
|
In March 2009, we repurchased $48.2 million original principal amount of our convertible
senior notes for $24.8 million and recognized a gain of $17.9 million. |
|
|
In April 2009, we repurchased $225.0 million original principal amount of our convertible
senior notes for $128.4 million. We also repurchased 42.65 million ($58.3 million at March
31, 2009) original principal amount of our 4.375% senior notes due April 2011 for
32.0 million ($43.7 million at March 31, 2009). |
|
|
On April 14, 2009, we completed a public offering of 174.8 million common shares at a price
of $6.60 per share and received net proceeds of $1.1 billion. The proceeds were used to repay
borrowings under our credit facilities, which include borrowings that were made on our credit
facilities in April 2009 to repurchase the convertible and senior notes discussed above. |
|
|
We adopted FASB Staff Position APB 14-1 Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments that
May Be Settled in Cash Upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement) (FSP APB 14-1),
on January 1, 2009, on a retroactive basis to reflect the new accounting associated with the
convertible notes we issued in 2007 and 2008. As a result, we restated 2008 amounts to
reflect the adjustment to debt and equity, as well as the additional interest expense. The
restatement also impacted the interest we would have capitalized related to our development
activities for both properties we currently own, as well as properties that were contributed
or sold during the applicable periods. |

The decrease in net earnings in 2009 from 2008 is due primarily to lower gains on dispositions of
properties offset by higher foreign currency exchange gains.
In the discussion that follows, we present the results of operations by reportable business
segment. See Note 11 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 for further description of
our segments.
Direct Owned Segment
The net operating income of the direct owned segment consists of rental income and rental expenses
from industrial and retail properties during the time we directly own them. The size and leased
percentage of our direct owned operating portfolio fluctuates due to the timing of contributions
and dispositions of properties and the development of properties and impacts 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 and land holding and
acquisition costs. See Note 11 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 for a
reconciliation of net operating income to earnings before income taxes.
The net operating income from the direct owned segment, excluding amounts presented as discontinued
operations in our Consolidated Financial Statements, was as follows (in thousands):

Included at March 31, 2009 are 28 properties aggregating 7.3 million
square feet for which development was completed in 2009. The leased
percentage fluctuates based on the composition of properties. |
The decrease in rental and other income in 2009 from 2008 is due primarily to the contributions of
properties in 2008 (generally completed development properties) to the unconsolidated property
funds and a decrease in the leased percentage of our core industrial properties, partially offset
by new leasing activity in our completed development properties. However, leasing activity has
slowed and rental revenues generated by the lease-up of newly
developed properties have not been adequate to completely offset the loss of rental revenues from property contributions. Under the
terms of our lease agreements, we are able to recover the majority of our rental expenses
28
from customers. Rental expense recoveries, included in both rental income and expenses, were
$53.9 million and $58.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, 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 (that develop or own industrial or retail properties); (ii) fees and incentives earned for
services performed; and (iii) interest earned on advances; offset by (iv) our direct costs of
managing these property funds and the properties they own. The net earnings or losses of the
unconsolidated investees may include the following income and expense items of our unconsolidated
investees, 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
in each period; (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.
Beginning in 2009, we are reporting the direct costs associated with our investment management
segment for all periods presented as a separate line item Investment Management Expenses in our
Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). These costs include the
property management expenses associated with the property-level management of the properties owned
by the property funds (previously included in Rental Expenses) and the investment management
expenses associated with the asset management of the property funds (previously included in General
and Administrative Expenses). In order to allocate the property management expenses between the
properties owned by us and the properties owned by the property funds, we use the square feet owned
at the beginning of the period by the respective portfolios.
The net operating income (loss) from the investment management segment was as follows (in

Represents the income earned by us from our investments in 12 property funds in North
America. Our ownership interests ranged from 20.0% to 50.0% at March 31, 2009. These property
funds on a combined basis owned 854 and 778 properties at March 31, 2009 and 2008,
respectively. The increase in properties is due primarily to contributions we have made to
certain of the property funds. Included in 2009 and 2008, are net losses of $9.7 million and
$21.3 million, respectively, which represent our proportionate share of realized and
unrealized losses that were recognized by certain of the property funds related to interest
rate derivative contracts that no longer met the requirements for hedge accounting. |
|

|
Represents the income earned by us from our investments in two property funds in Europe,
PEPR and PEPF II. On a combined basis, these funds owned 408 and 315 properties at March 31,
2009 and 2008, respectively. The increase in properties is due primarily to contributions we
have made to PEPF II. |
|
|
|
Our ownership interest in PEPR was 24.9% at both March 31, 2009 and 2008. Our ownership
interest in PEPF II was 33.9% and 24.5% at March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Our
ownership interest at March 31, 2008 included a 17% direct ownership and a 7.5% indirect
ownership (through PEPRs 30% ownership interest in PEPF II). In December 2008, we acquired
PEPRs 20% ownership interest in PEPF II, and in February 2009 PEPR sold its remaining 10% to
third parties. As such, we have only a direct ownership interest in PEPF II at March 31, 2009. |

Represents the income earned by us from our 20% ownership interest in two property funds in
Japan and one property fund in South Korea. At March 31, 2009 and 2008, the property funds,
in which we maintain an ownership interest, on a combined basis owned 13 and 74 properties.
The decrease in properties is due to the sale of our investments in the Japan property funds
in February 2009 (see Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1). Included in
2008 for Japan are net losses of $10.3 million that represent our proportionate share of
unrealized losses from derivative contracts. |
|

|
We have restated the net operating income of this segment for 2008 to include our
proportionate share of the net earnings of our joint ventures that develop and operate
principally industrial and retail properties. These amounts were previously included in the
CDFS business segment. |
CDFS Business Segment
Net operating income of the CDFS business segment for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was
$180.2 million, compared with $278.0 million for the same period in 2008. As discussed earlier, our
business strategy no longer focuses on the CDFS business segment. The amount in 2009 is the gain
from the sale of our investments in the Japan property funds, while the amount in 2008 consisted of
gains recognized from the contributions of 41 properties to the property funds.
Operational Outlook
During the first three months of 2009, industrial property fundamentals have reflected the global
economic weakness and slowdown in global trade. Throughout the majority of our markets, we are
experiencing reduced leasing activity and increased leasing costs. Partially offsetting these
trends, we have had higher-than-average customer retention and the industry as a whole has had
sharply reduced levels of new supply.
In our total operating portfolio, including properties owned by our unconsolidated investees and
managed by us, we leased 22.9 million square feet and 121.5 million square feet of space during the
quarter ended March 31, 2009 and the year ended December 31, 2008, respectively, including 28.8
million square feet of leases signed in the quarter ended March 31, 2008.
In our direct owned
portfolio, we leased 13.7 million square feet, including 3.2 million square feet of new leases in
our development portfolio (both completed properties and those under development) in the three
months ended March 31, 2009. Repeat business with our global customers is important to our
long-term growth. During the first quarter of 2009, 57% of the space leased in our newly developed
properties was with repeat customers. Although leasing activity has slowed, for the leases that
expired in the first quarter of 2009, existing customers renewed their leases 74% of the time. We
expect that leasing will continue to slow, leasing costs may increase and market rents will likely
decrease until economic conditions improve. As of March 31, 2009, our total direct owned operating
portfolio was 80.1% leased, as compared with 82.1% at December 31, 2008.
As we previously disclosed, we have significantly reduced new development starts. During the three
months ended March 31, 2009, we started development of two properties with 394,000 square feet that
were 100% leased, completed the development of 29 buildings aggregating 7.6 million square feet
that were 39.9% leased at March 31, 2009 and we contributed nine properties aggregating 2.0 million
square feet that were 95% leased to ProLogis European Properties Fund II. As of March 31, 2009, we
had 160 completed development properties that were 45.1% leased with a current investment of
approximately $3.3 billion and a total expected investment (including estimated remaining leasing
costs) of $3.6 billion. We also had 37 properties under development that were 42.8% leased with a
current investment of $861 million and a total expected investment of $1.2 billion when completed
and leased. Our near-term focus is to complete the development and leasing of these properties.
Once these properties are leased, we may continue to own them directly, thereby creating additional
income in our direct owned segment or we may contribute them to a property fund or sell to a third
party, generating cash to reduce our debt.

Other Components of Income
Investment Management Expenses
Beginning in 2009, we are reporting the direct costs associated with our investment management
segment for all periods presented as a separate line item Investment Management Expenses in our
Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). These costs include the
property management expenses associated with the property-level management of the properties owned
by the property funds (previously included in Rental Expenses) and the investment management
expenses associated with the asset management of the property funds (previously included in General
and Administrative Expenses). We allocated the property management expenses between the properties
owned by us and the properties owned by the property funds, based on the square feet owned at the
beginning of the period by the respective portfolios.
General and Administrative (G&A) Expenses
G&A expenses were $48.2 million and $46.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and
2008, respectively, and consisted of the following (in thousands):

As we announced in the fourth quarter of 2008, in response to the difficult economic climate, we
initiated G&A reductions with a near-term target of a 20 to 25% reduction in G&A prior to
capitalization or allocations for 2009. These initiatives included a Reduction in Workforce (RIF)
and reductions to other expenses through various cost savings measures. We believe we have achieved
our target based on our 2009 planned spending. Due to the changes in our business strategy in the
fourth quarter of 2008, we have halted the majority of our new development activities, which, along
with lower gross G&A, has resulted in lower capitalized G&A.
In the fourth quarter of 2008 and the first quarter of 2009, we recognized $23.1 million and $4.5
million, respectively, of expenses related to the RIF program. We may have additional RIF charges
in the future.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expenses were $79.8 million and $75.8 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The increase in 2009 over 2008 is due primarily to
depreciation expense that is now being recorded on our development properties, based on our current
intent to hold and operate these properties.

We adopted FSP APB 14-1 that requires separate accounting for the debt and equity components of
convertible debt on January 1, 2009, as required, on a retroactive basis to the convertible notes
we issued in 2007 and 2008. As a result, we restated 2008 amounts to reflect the additional
interest expense and the additional capitalized interest related to our development activities for
both properties we currently own, as well as properties that were contributed during the applicable
periods.
The decrease in interest expense in 2009 over 2008 is due to lower debt levels and lower borrowing
rates, offset by lower capitalization due to reduced development activity in 2009. Our future
interest expense, both gross and the portion capitalized, will vary depending on the level of our
development activities.
Net Gains on Dispositions of Development Properties to Property Funds
During the three months ended March 31, 2009, we recognized gains of $2.5 million on the
disposition of nine properties from our direct owned segment to one of the unconsolidated property
funds in Europe, including minor adjustments to previous dispositions. Due to our continuing
involvement through our ownership in the property funds, these dispositions are not included in
discontinued operations and the gains recognized represent the portion attributable to the third
party ownership in the property funds that acquired the properties. In 2008, contribution activity
is reported as CDFS Proceeds and Cost of CDFS Dispositions within our CDFS Business Segment.
Foreign Currency Exchange Gains (Losses), net
We and certain of our foreign consolidated subsidiaries have intercompany or third party debt that
is not denominated in the entitys functional currency. When the debt is remeasured against the
functional currency of the entity, a gain or loss may result. To mitigate our foreign currency
exchange exposure, we borrow in the functional currency of the borrowing entity when appropriate.
Certain of our intercompany debt is remeasured with the resulting adjustment recognized as a
cumulative translation adjustment in other comprehensive income (loss). This treatment is
applicable to intercompany debt that is deemed to be long-term in nature. If the intercompany debt
is deemed short-term in nature, when the debt is remeasured, we recognize a gain or loss in
earnings.
We recognized net foreign currency exchange gains of $44.0 million during the first three months of
2009 and net foreign currency exchange losses of $34.0 million during the first three months of
2008 related to the remeasurement of debt. Predominantly the gains or losses recognized in earnings relate to the intercompany loans
between the U.S. parent and our consolidated subsidiaries in Japan and Europe due to fluctuations
in the exchange rates of U.S. dollars to the yen, euro and pound sterling. In addition, we
recognized net foreign currency exchange losses of $13.5 million and $1.9 million from the
settlement of transactions with third parties in the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008,
respectively.
Gain on Early Extinguishment of Debt
In March 2009, we repurchased $16.7 million original principal amount of our 2.25% convertible
senior notes due 2037 for $9.2 million and $31.5 million original principal amount of our 1.875%
convertible senior notes due 2037
32
for $15.6 million. In connection with the repurchase, we recognized a gain of $17.9 million
representing the discount between the recorded debt (net of the discount) and the consideration we
paid to retire the convertible debt.
Income Taxes
During the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, our current income tax expense was $22.2
million and $24.4 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 in
certain states. We also include in current income tax expense the interest associated with our
unrecognized tax benefit liabilities. 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 2009, in connection with the sale of our investments in the Japan property funds we recognized a
current tax expense of $20.5 million.
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 February 2009, we sold our operations in China to affiliates of GIC Real Estate, the real estate
investment company of the Government of Singapore Investment Corporation (GIC RE). Accordingly,
we have included the gain on sale of $3.3 million and the results in discontinued operations for
all periods presented in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
See additional information on the sale in Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in
Item 1.
In 2008, we disposed of 15 properties, as well as land subject to ground leases, to third parties
that met the requirements to be classified as discontinued operations and we had two properties
classified as Held for Sale at March 31, 2009. Therefore, the results of operations for these
properties are included in discontinued operations. See Note 5 to our Consolidated Financial
Statements in Item 1.
Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) Foreign Currency Translation Gains (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
accumulated other comprehensive loss.
During the three months ended March 31, 2009, we recognized losses in other comprehensive income
(loss) of $342.9 million related to foreign currency translations of our international business
units into U.S. dollars upon consolidation. These losses are mainly the result of the strengthening
of the U.S. dollar to the euro and pound sterling from the beginning of the period to March 31,
2009. During the three months ended March 31, 2008, we recognized net gains of $132.9 million due
primarily to the strengthening euro and pound sterling to the U.S. dollar from the beginning of the
period to March 31, 2008. We have continued to see volatility in foreign currency exchange rates
subsequent to March 31, 2009.
In addition, as a result of the sale of our China operations and our investments in the Japan
property funds, other comprehensive loss increased by $149.3 million, representing
the gains previously included as currency translation adjustments.

Same Store Analysis
We evaluate the operating 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 property funds
and joint ventures 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,
2009, as those properties that were in operation at January 1, 2008 and have been in operation
throughout the three-month periods in both 2009 and 2008, including completed development
properties. We have removed all properties that were disposed of to a third party and properties
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, to derive the
same store results. The same store portfolio, for the three months ended March 31, 2009, included
2,416 properties that aggregated 418.9 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), as included in our
Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1, to the respective amounts in our same store portfolio
analysis.

As discussed above, our same store portfolio aggregates industrial and retail properties from
our consolidated portfolio and industrial properties owned by the property funds and
industrial joint ventures that are managed by us and in which we invest. During the periods
presented, certain properties owned by us were contributed to an unconsolidated investee 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 |
35
|
|
|
|
|
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) |
|
Rental income in the same store portfolio includes straight-line rents and rental recoveries,
as well as base rent. 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 and retail properties and those industrial properties owned by our
unconsolidated investees and managed by us. |
|
(4) |
|
The same store portfolio results include the benefit of leasing our completed development
properties. Therefore, we have also presented the results for the adjusted same store
portfolio by excluding the 188 completed development properties that we owned as of January 1,
2008 and that are still included in the same store portfolio (either owned by us or our
unconsolidated investees that we manage). |
|
(5) |
|
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 provides 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. In addition, in the three months ended
March 31, 2008, we recognized a $6.0 million increase in insurance expense due to a tornado
that struck certain properties owned by us and the property funds, which we insure through our
insurance company. This amount is included as effect of changes in foreign currency exchange
rates and other in the tables above. |
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, contributions and 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 for the
remainder of 2009.
As discussed earlier, our current business strategy has a significant emphasis on liquidity. During
the fourth quarter of 2008, we set a goal to reduce leverage through the reduction of our total
debt by at least $2 billion as of December 31, 2009, as compared with September 30, 2008. We expect to
exceed this goal through a number of actions, which have included or may include the following
(depending on market conditions and other factors):
|
|
generate cash through the contributions of properties to the unconsolidated property funds
or sales of assets to third parties; |
|
o |
|
During the three months ended March 31, 2009, we received $1.3 billion in
proceeds from the sale of our China operations and investments in Japan property
funds and generated $135.7 million in proceeds from the contributions of properties
to the property funds and sales to third parties. We currently have certain real
estate properties in our core portfolio under contract or letter of intent. We will
continue to evaluate the level of future contributions and asset sales based on our
improved liquidity situation. |
|
|
repurchase our senior notes at a discount; |
|
o |
|
We repurchased $357.9 million of our senior notes and convertible notes for $241.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2008 and the first quarter
of 2009. During April 2009, we repurchased an additional $283.3 million original
principal amount of senior notes for $172.1 million cash. |
|
o |
|
In April 2009, we completed a public offering of 174.8 million common
shares at a price of $6.60 per share (Equity Offering) that resulted in net
proceeds to us of $1.1 billion, which we used to pay down borrowings on our credit
facilities. |
|
o |
|
We halted early-stage development projects, initiated G&A cost savings
initiatives and implemented a RIF plan with a target to reduce gross G&A by 20% to
25%, which we believe we have achieved based on our planned 2009 spending. |
|
|
lower our common share distribution. |
|
o |
|
We reduced our expected annual distributions on our common shares in 2009
from $553 million to $266 million (taking into account the Equity Offering and our
current expected distribution rate). |
At March 31, 2009, our credit facilities provide aggregate borrowing capacity of $4.2 billion. This
includes our global line of credit, where a syndicate of banks allows us to draw funds in
U.S. dollar, euro, Japanese yen, British pound sterling, South Korean won and Canadian dollar
(Global Line). This also includes a multi-currency credit facility that allows us to borrow in
U.S. dollar, euro, Japanese yen, and British pound sterling (Credit Facility) and a 15.4 million
British pound sterling facility (Sterling Facility). The total commitments under our credit
facilities fluctuate in U.S. dollars based on the underlying currencies. Based on our public debt
ratings, interest on the borrowings under the Global Line and Credit Facility primarily accrues at
a variable rate based upon the interbank offered rate in each respective jurisdiction in which the
borrowings are outstanding (1.43% per annum at March 31, 2009 based on a weighted average using
local currency rates).
The Global Line and Credit Facility mature in October 2009; however, we can exercise a 12-month
extension at our option for all currencies, subject to certain customary conditions and the payment
of an extension fee. These customary conditions include: (i) we are not in default; (ii) we have
appropriately approved such an extension; and (iii) we certify that certain representations and
warranties, contained in the agreements, are true and correct in all
37
material respects. We are currently in discussions with the lead banks to recast, extend and reduce
the commitment related to the Global Line. The Credit Facility provides us the ability to
re-borrow, within a specified period of time, any amounts repaid on the facility. During the first
quarter of 2009, we reduced the commitment of the Sterling Facility, which matures December 31,
2009, to the balance of the outstanding letters of credit.
As of March 31, 2009, under these facilities, we had outstanding borrowings of $2.0 billion
(including $108.6 million that is included in Discontinued Operations Assets Held for Sale on our
Consolidated Balance Sheets) and letters of credit of $129.6 million, resulting in remaining
borrowing capacity of approximately $2.0 billion.
As of March 31, 2009, we had the following amounts outstanding under all our credit facilities (in
millions):

As discussed earlier, the outstanding balance on our credit facilities decreased subsequent to
March 31, 2009 as a result of the proceeds we received from the Equity Offering, offset partially
by borrowings to repurchase certain senior and convertible notes at a discount.
In connection with a new accounting pronouncement, we restated our convertible debt balances to
reflect a portion of the debt as equity (representing the convertible component). The adjustment is
reflected as a discount that reduced our debt balance at December 31, 2008 by $296.3 million and is
amortized into interest expense over the remaining life of the debt. See Note 1 to our Consolidated
Financial Statements in Item 1 for more information. At March 31, 2009, we are in compliance with
all of our debt covenants.
In addition to common share distributions and preferred share dividend requirements, we expect our
principle cash needs will consist of the following for the remainder of 2009:
|
|
completion of the development and leasing of the properties in our development portfolio; |
|
o |
|
As of March 31, 2009, we had 37 properties under development with a current
investment of $861 million and a total expected investment of $1.2 billion when
completed and leased, with $342 million remaining to be spent. We also had 160
completed development properties with a current investment of $3.3 billion and a
total expected investment of $3.6 billion when leased, with $227 million remaining to
be spent. |
|
|
repayment of debt, including payments on our credit facilities or opportunistic buy-back of
convertible or senior notes in order to achieve our goal of reducing debt; |
|
|
scheduled principal payments (in the remainder of 2009, we have scheduled principle
payments of $311 million, which includes $250 million of floating rate senior notes that
mature in August 2009); |
|
|
tax and interest payments related to the completion of audits of certain income tax
returns; |
|
|
capital expenditures and leasing costs on properties; |
|
|
investments in current or future unconsolidated property funds, including our remaining
capital commitments of $839.1 million; and |
|
o |
|
We may fulfill our equity commitment with a properties we
contribute to the property fund. However, to the extent a property
fund acquires properties from a third party or requires cash to pay-off debt or has
other cash needs, we may be required to contribute our proportionate share of the
equity component in cash to the property fund. During the three months ended March
31, 2009, we used cash to make investments in or loans to the property funds of
approximately $59.9 million. |
38
|
|
depending on market conditions, direct acquisitions or development of operating properties
and/or portfolios of operating properties in key distribution markets for direct, long-term
investment in the direct owned segment. |
We expect to fund cash needs for the remainder of 2009 and future years principally with proceeds
received of $1.1 billion from the Equity Offering and cash from the following sources, all subject
to market conditions:
|
|
available cash balances ($123.8 million at March 31, 2009); |
|
|
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 or land parcels to third parties; |
|
|
cash proceeds from the contributions of properties to property funds; |
|
|
borrowing capacity under existing credit facilities ($2.0 billion available as of March 31,
2009), other future facilities or borrowing arrangements; |
|
|
proceeds from the issuance of equity securities, including sales under various common share
plans, all subject to market conditions (our Board of Trustees (Board) has authorized the
sale of up to 40.0 million common shares in at-the-market share programs); and |
|
|
proceeds from the issuance of debt securities, including the issuance of secured debt. |
We may seek to retire or purchase our outstanding debt or equity securities through cash purchases,
in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases or
exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements,
contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material. We have not
repurchased our common shares since 2003.
Commitments related to future contributions to Property Funds
Several property funds have equity commitments from us and our fund partners. We may fulfill our
equity commitment with the properties we may contribute to the property fund or cash. Our fund
partners fulfill the commitment with the contribution of cash. The following table outlines the
remaining equity commitments of each property fund with potential commitments in 2009, as of
March 31, 2009 (in millions):

PEPF IIs equity commitments are denominated in euro and include commitments of ProLogis of
546.7 million and of the fund partners of 789.8 million. During the three months ended
March 31, 2009, we contributed nine properties to PEPF II for gross proceeds of $130.5
million. |
We are committed to offer to contribute substantially all of the properties that we develop and
stabilize in Europe and Mexico to the respective property funds. These property funds are committed
to acquire such properties, subject to certain exceptions, including that the properties meet
certain specified leasing and other criteria, and that the property funds have available capital.
We are not obligated to contribute properties at a loss.
Dependent on market conditions, we may make contributions of properties to these property funds in
2009. Given the current debt markets, it is likely that the contributions will be financed by the
property funds with all equity. Generally, the properties are contributed based on third-party
appraised value, other than PEPF II.
39
For contributions we make in 2009 to PEPF II, the capitalization rate is determined based on a
third party appraisal and a margin of 0.25 to 0.75 percentage points is added to the capitalization
rate, depending on the quarter contributed. This adjustment was made due to the belief that
appraisals have been lagging true market conditions. The agreement provides for additional proceeds
to us if capitalization rates at the end of 2010 are lower than those used to determine
contribution values.
Generally, we fulfill our equity commitment with properties we contribute to the property fund.
However, to the extent a property fund acquires properties from a third party or requires cash to
pay-off debt or has other cash needs, we may be required to contribute our proportionate share of
the equity component in cash to the property fund. During the three months ended March 31, 2009, we
contributed $34.5 million in connection with contributions of our properties to PEPF II and the
repayment of debt by ProLogis North American Industrial Fund. In addition, we and our fund partner
each loaned $25.4 million to ProLogis North American Industrial Fund III, the proceeds of which
were used to repay maturing debt of the property fund.
Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $183.1 million and $354.9 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The decrease is due primarily to gains of
$278.0 million recognized in 2008 on the contributions of CDFS properties. These gains were lower
in 2009 and, due to the changes in our business strategy, no longer included in cash provided by
operating activities. Cash provided by operating activities exceeded the cash distributions paid on
common shares and dividends paid on preferred shares in both periods.
Cash Investing and Cash Financing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, investing activities provided net cash of
$931.6 million and used net cash of $286.9 million, respectively. The following are the more
significant activities for both periods presented:
|
|
In 2009, we received $1.3 billion in proceeds from the sale of our China operations and our
property fund interests in Japan. The proceeds were used to pay down borrowings on our credit
facilities. |
|
|
We generated net cash from contributions and dispositions of properties and land parcels of
$130.8 million and $1.3 billion during 2009 and 2008, respectively. |
|
|
We invested $504.0 million in real estate during 2009 and $1.6 billion for the same period
in 2008. These amounts include the acquisition of operating properties (15 properties with an
aggregate purchase price of $138.3 million in 2008); acquisitions of land for future
development; costs for current and future development projects; and recurring capital
expenditures and tenant improvements on existing operating properties. At March 31, 2009, we
had 37 properties aggregating 12.1 million square feet under development, with a current
investment of $861.2 million and a total expected investment of $1.2 billion. |
|
|
We invested cash of $63.4 million and $28.7 million during 2009 and 2008, respectively, in
unconsolidated investees in connection with property contributions we made and repayments of
debt by the investees. |
|
|
We received distributions from unconsolidated investees as a return of investment of $14.5
million and $31.0 million during 2009 and 2008, respectively. |
|
|
We generated net cash through payments on notes receivable of $8.2 million and $0.2 million
during 2009 and 2008, respectively. |
For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, financing activities used net cash of $1.2
billion and provided net cash of $401.2 million, respectively. The following are the more
significant activities for both periods presented:
|
|
In March 2009, we repurchased $48.2 million original principal amount of our convertible
senior notes for $24.8 million. |
40
|
|
On our lines of credit and other credit facilities, including the Global Line and the
Credit Facility, we had net payments of $1.0 billion and net borrowings of $607.9 million
during 2009 and 2008, respectively. |
|
|
On our other debt, we made net payments of $53.2 million and $177.8 million during 2009 and
2008, respectively. |
|
|
We generated proceeds from the sale and issuance of common shares under our various common
share plans of $0.6 million and $97.6 million during 2009 and 2008, respectively. |
|
|
We paid distributions of $66.9 million and $133.6 million to our common shareholders during
2009 and 2008, respectively. We paid dividends on our preferred shares of $6.4 million during
both 2009 and 2008. |
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Investment Management Fund Debt
We had investments in and advances to the property funds at March 31, 2009 of $1.6 billion. The
property funds had total third party debt of $10.3 billion (for the entire entity, not our
proportionate share) at March 31, 2009 that matures as follows (in millions):

As of March 31, 2009, we had not guaranteed any of the third party debt of the property
funds. In our role as the manager of the property funds, we work with the property funds to
refinance their maturing debt. 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 otherwise obtain funds by 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. Information on remaining equity commitments of the
property funds is presented above. |
|
(2) |
|
The debt with a 2009 maturity was repaid in April 2009 with borrowings on PEPRs credit
facilities of $280.9 million (included in 2010 maturities) and available cash. PEPR has a
credit facility, with aggregate borrowing capacity of 900 million (approximately $1.23
billion) under which $1.05 billion was outstanding with $183.5 million remaining capacity,
all at March 31, 2009. |
|
(3) |
|
PEPF II has a 1 billion credit facility (approximately $1.37 billion). As of March 31,
2009, $1.16 billion was outstanding and $204.8 million was available to borrow under this
facility. |
|
(4) |
|
The debt with a 2009 maturity was refinanced on April 29, 2009 with the existing lender at
7.25% and a maturity of 2014. In March 2009, the property fund issued $120 million of debt at
7.5% that matures in 2019, |
41
|
|
|
|
|
the proceeds of which were used to repay debt that matured in March 2009. The property fund
extended $55.7 million of maturities from 2009 to 2010 at 7.5%. |
|
(5) |
|
ProLogis North American Industrial Fund has a $250.0 million credit facility that matures
July 17, 2010, under which the entire facility was available at March 31, 2009. Capital was
called on February 10, 2009 that was used to repay the outstanding balance. |
|
(6) |
|
The maturities in 2009 include a term loan for $411.4 million that matures in July 2009 and
was issued by an affiliate of our fund partner in July 2007 when this property fund was
formed. We are in active discussions with our fund partner regarding an extension of the term
loan, as well as their underlying equity investment in the property fund. |
|
(7) |
|
During the first quarter of 2009, we and our fund partner each loaned the property fund $25.4
million that is payable at dissolution of the partnership and bears interest at LIBOR plus 8%.
This debt is not included in the maturities above as it is not third party debt. The proceeds,
along with operating cash, were used to repay $61.3 million of third party debt and the
remaining balance of $104.2 million was extended from 2009 to 2012. |
|
(8) |
|
In addition to its existing third party debt, this property fund has a note payable to us for
$14.3 million at March 31, 2009. |
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 Code 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. Because depreciation is a non-cash expense, cash flow
typically will be greater than operating income and net earnings.
We paid a cash distribution of $0.25 per common share for the first quarter of 2009 on February 27,
2009.
In April 2009, in connection with the issuance of common shares in a registered public offering and
recognizing the need to maintain maximum financial flexibility in light of the current state of the
capital markets and considering the impact of the offering, our Board reduced our 2009 annualized
distribution level to $0.70 per common share (including the $0.25 per share already paid in the
first quarter of 2009). The payment of distributions is subject to authorization by our Board out
of funds legally available for the payment of distributions and is subject to market conditions and
REIT distribution requirements. The payment of common share distributions and its composition
between cash and shares is dependent upon our financial condition and operating results and may be
adjusted at the discretion of our Board during the year.
On April 29, 2009, our Board declared the second quarter distribution of $0.15 per common share
that will be payable on May 29, 2009 to shareholders of record on May 15, 2009.
At March 31, 2009, 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
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 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 NAREIT has published a definition of FFO,
modifications to the NAREIT calculation of FFO are common among REITs, as companies seek to provide
financial measures that meaningfully reflect their business. FFO, as we define it, is presented as
a supplemental financial measure. We do not use FFO as, nor should it be considered to be, an
alternative to net earnings computed under GAAP as an indicator of our operating performance or as
an alternative to cash from operating activities computed under GAAP as an indicator of our ability
to fund our cash needs.
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:
(a) |
|
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. |
(b) |
|
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 and properties acquired in our CDFS business segment, as well as our
proportionate share of the gains and losses from dispositions recognized by the property
funds, in our definition of FFO. |
At the same time that NAREIT created and defined its FFO concept 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
financial analysts, potential investors and shareholders 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 defined FFO, including significant non-cash items, measure excludes the following items from
net earnings computed under GAAP that are not excluded in the NAREIT defined FFO measure:
(i) |
|
deferred income tax benefits and deferred income tax expenses recognized by our subsidiaries; |
43
(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. |
FFO, including significant non-cash items, of our unconsolidated investees is calculated on the
same basis.
In addition, we present FFO excluding significant non-cash items. In order to derive FFO excluding
significant non- cash items, we add back certain charges or subtract certain gains. The items we
have excluded, either currently or in previous periods, are gains from the early extinguishment of
debt, impairment charges that we incur directly or through our unconsolidated investees, the gain
on the sale of our China operations that were sold in February 2009 and our share of losses on
derivative activity recognized by the property funds in FFO that were settled for cash in previous
periods. We believe it is meaningful to remove the effects of significant non-cash items to more
appropriately present our results on a comparative basis.
The items that we exclude from net earnings computed under GAAP, while not infrequent or unusual,
are subject to significant fluctuations from period to period that cause both positive and negative
effects on our results of operations, in inconsistent and unpredictable directions. Most
importantly, the economics underlying the items that we exclude from net earnings computed under
GAAP are not the primary drivers in managements decision-making process and capital investment
decisions. Period to period fluctuations in these items can be driven by accounting for short-term
factors that are not relevant to long-term investment decisions, long-term capital structures or
long-term tax planning and tax structuring decisions. Accordingly, 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.
Real estate is a capital-intensive business. Investors analyses of the performance of real estate
companies tend to be centered on understanding the asset value created by real estate investment
decisions and understanding current operating returns that are being generated by those same
investment decisions. The adjustments to net earnings computed under GAAP that are included in
arriving at our FFO measure are helpful to management in making real estate investment decisions
and evaluating our current operating performance. We believe these adjustments are also helpful to
industry analysts, potential investors and shareholders in their understanding and evaluation of
our performance on the key measures of net asset value and current operating returns generated on
real estate investments.
While we believe our defined FFO measures are an 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. 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. |
44
|
|
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, measure may be realized in the future upon the ultimate disposition of the
related real estate properties or other assets. |
We compensate for these limitations by using the FFO measures only in conjunction with net earnings
computed under GAAP. To further compensate, we reconcile our defined FFO measures to net earnings
computed under GAAP in our financial reports. Additionally, we provide investors with (i) our
complete financial statements prepared under GAAP; (ii) our definition of FFO, which includes a
discussion of the limitations of using our non-GAAP measure; and (iii) a reconciliation of our GAAP
measure (net earnings) to our non-GAAP measure (FFO, as we define it), so that investors can
appropriately incorporate this measure and its limitations into their analyses.
FFO including significant non-cash items, attributable to common shares as defined by us was $242.3
million and $358.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. FFO,
excluding significant non-cash items, attributable to common shares as defined by us was $232.3
million and $358.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The
reconciliations of FFO attributable to common shares as defined by us to net earnings attributable
to common shares computed under GAAP are as follows for the periods indicated (in thousands):

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 in the past used certain derivative
financial instruments, primarily foreign currency put option and forward contracts, to reduce our
foreign currency market risk, as we deem appropriate. Currently, we do not have any such
instruments outstanding. 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 quarter-end interest rates and foreign currency exchange 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.
46
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. We had no interest rate swap contracts outstanding at March 31,
2009.
Our primary interest rate risk is created by the variable rate lines of credit. During the three
months ended March 31, 2009, we had weighted average daily outstanding borrowings of $3.1 billion
on our variable rate lines of credit. 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 $1.5 million of cash flow for the three months ended
March 31, 2009.
We also have $250 million of variable interest rate debt for which we have a market risk of
increased rates. Based on a sensitivity analysis with a 10% adverse change in interest rates our
estimated market risk exposure for this issuance is approximately $0.1 million on our cash flow for
the three months ended March 31, 2009.
As a result of a change in accounting effective January 1, 2009, our non-cash interest expense for
the three months ended March 31, 2009 increased $17.8 million prior to capitalization of interest
as a result of our development activities. See Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in
Item 1 for further information.
The unconsolidated property funds that we manage, and in which we have an equity ownership, may
enter into interest rate swap contracts. See Note 4 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in
Item 1 for further information on these derivatives.
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.
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, 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, 2009, 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, 2009, 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, 2009. 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.
47
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.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
As of March 31, 2009, no material changes had occurred in our risk factors as discussed in Item 1A of our Form 10-K, except as supplemented below:
We may change the distribution policy for our common shares in the future.
On February 9, 2009, our Board of Trustees (Board)
declared a distribution of $0.25 per share that was paid on February 27, 2009 to our common shareholders of record on
February 19, 2009. Recognizing the need to maintain maximum financial flexibility in light of the current state of
the capital markets, and considering the distribution requirements for
the increased number of shares expected to be outstanding due to the Equity Offering, our Board reduced the expected
distribution level on our common shares for the balance of 2009 to an annualized distribution level of $0.70 per share
(including the $0.25 distribution previously paid). On April 29, 2009, our Board declared the second quarter distribution
of $0.15 per common share that will be payable on May 29, 2009 to shareholders of record on May 15, 2009.
In addition, a recent
Internal Revenue Service revenue procedure allows us to satisfy the REIT income distribution
requirement by distributing up to 90% of our distributions on our common shares in our common
shares in lieu of paying distributions entirely in cash. Although we reserve the right to utilize
this procedure in the future, we currently have no
intent to do so. In the event that we pay a portion of a distribution in our common shares, taxable U.S.
shareholders would be required to pay tax on the entire amount of the distribution, including the portion
paid in common shares, in which case such shareholders might have to pay the tax using cash from other sources.
If a U.S. shareholder sells the shares it receives as a distribution in order to pay this tax, the sales proceeds
may be less than the amount included in income with respect to the distribution, depending on the market price of
our shares at the time of the sale.
Furthermore, with respect
to non-U.S. shareholders, we may be required to withhold U.S. tax with respect to such distribution,
including in respect of all or a portion of such distribution that is payable in shares. In addition, if a significant number of our shareholders sell our common shares in order to pay taxes owed on distributions, such sales would put downward
pressure on the market price of our common shares.
The decision to declare and pay
distributions on our common shares in the future, as well as the timing, amount and composition
of any such future distributions, will be at the sole discretion of our Board and will depend on
our earnings, cash flow, liquidity, financial condition, capital requirements, contractual prohibitions or
other limitations under our indebtedness and
preferred shares, the annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Code, state
law and such other factors as our Board deems relevant. While the statements above concerning the remaining
distributions for 2009 are our current expectation, the actual distribution payable will be determined by our
Board based upon the circumstances at the time of declaration and the actual distribution payable may vary from
such expected amounts. Any change in our distribution policy could have a material adverse effect on the market
price of our common shares.
