Development and Redevelopment Activity

In the fourth quarter, the Company completed three development communities containing 1,122 apartment homes in Huntington Beach, CA, San Diego, CA and Addison, TX. The Company’s share of the aggregated estimated cost of the communities totaled $275 million.

As of year-end 2013, the Company’s development pipeline totaled $1.2 billion, of which 64 percent had been funded. Of the remaining $970 million in development left to complete, $480 million is expected to be completed in 2014, $325 million in 2015 and the remainder in 2016.

During the fourth quarter, the Company completed the redevelopment of 155 homes at an aggregated cost of $16.5 million at its Rivergate and 27 Seventy Five Mesa Verde projects. The scope of the redevelopments at both projects changed in the quarter. The budget for our Rivergate project in Manhattan expanded due to the identification of further revenue generating opportunities, while we tabled for the foreseeable future additional home interior renovations at our 27 Seventy Five Mesa Verde project in Orange County due to lower than expected demand in that particular submarket.

Transactional Activity

On December 5, 2013, the Company announced the disposition of three non-core communities. The sales closed in mid-December for $132 million at a weighted average cap rate of 6.0 percent.

  • The Company exited the non-core Sacramento market with the sale of two communities that averaged 31 years in age for total proceeds of $81.1 million.
  • The Company disposed of its recently developed Lodge at Stoughton community for $51.0 million. The community was a 95%/5% joint venture with a third-party. At its 95 percent ownership interest, proceeds to the Company totaled approximately $48.5 million.

At the time of sale, the three dispositions’ weighted average occupancy and revenue per occupied home were 95.3 percent and $1,082, respectively. Additional details can be found in the Company’s press release issued on December 5, 2013 on its website at www.udr.com.

During the fourth quarter, the Company consolidated its 95%/5% development joint ventures 13th and Market in San Diego, CA and Domain College Park in Metro Washington, D.C. The consolidation was due to the Company becoming the managing partner of each of the joint ventures.

Following year-end, the Company,

  • Acquired the land for the development of Pacific City, a 516 home community located in Huntington Beach, CA for $78 million. The site has immediate access to the Pacific Coast Highway and is only three blocks from the Huntington Beach pier.
  • Sold its non-core Presidio at Rancho del Oro community located in North County San Diego for $48.7 million. The 27 year old property had average revenue per occupied home of $1,485 in the fourth quarter and was sold at a 5.4 percent cap rate.

Joint Venture/Partnership Investment Activity

As previously announced, the Company formed a 51%/49% development partnership with MetLife to construct a luxury, for-rent high-rise on its 399 Fremont land parcel in San Francisco. The building is projected to cost $318 million, include 447 homes and is located adjacent to the Company’s existing operating community, 388 Beale. The development broke ground in January 2014.

In addition, the Company entered into a participating debt financing arrangement with a third-party developer to fund the construction of a $108 million, 218 home luxury apartment community located in the Cherry Creek neighborhood of Denver. The Company will provide up to $92 million of financing for the project, has a substantial third-party equity cushion in front of its participating loan, is paid 6.5 percent interest on the outstanding loan balance and will receive 50 percent of any upside to cost at subsequent purchase of the community by the Company or sale to a third-party. The project broke ground in December 2013.

Additional details can be found in the Company’s press release issued on December 5, 2013 on its website at www.udr.com.

Balance Sheet

At December 31, 2013, the Company had $930 million in availability through a combination of cash and undrawn capacity on its credit facilities.

The Company’s total indebtedness at December 31, 2013 was $3.5 billion. The Company ended the year with fixed-rate debt representing 89 percent of its total debt, a total blended interest rate of 4.3 percent and a weighted average maturity of 4.4 years. The Company’s leverage was 39.2 percent versus 38.8 percent a year ago, net debt-to-EBITDA was 7.0 times, flat with a year ago, and fixed charge coverage was 3.1x versus 3.0x a year ago.

Dividend

As previously announced, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly dividend on its common stock for the fourth quarter of 2013 in the amount of $0.235 per share. The dividend was paid in cash on January 31, 2014 to UDR common stock shareholders of record as of January 10, 2014. The fourth quarter 2013 dividend represented the 165th consecutive quarterly dividend paid by the Company on its common stock.

In conjunction with this release, the Company declared a 2014 annualized dividend per share of $1.04, an 11 percent increase versus 2013.

Outlook

For the first quarter of 2014, the Company has established the following guidance ranges:

  • FFO per share: $0.34 to $0.36
  • FFO as Adjusted per share: $0.33 to $0.35
  • AFFO per share: $0.30 to $0.32

For the full-year 2014, the Company has established the following guidance ranges:

  • FFO per share: $1.47 to $1.53
  • FFO as Adjusted per share: $1.47 to $1.53
  • AFFO per share: $1.30 to $1.36
  • Declared Dividend per share: $1.04

For the full-year 2014, the primary same-store growth assumptions are:

Attachment 16(B)

 
 
UDR, Inc.
Definitions and Reconciliations
December 31, 2013
(Unaudited)
 
Funds From Operations ("FFO"): The Company defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate or of investments in non-consolidated investees that are driven by measurable decreases in the fair value of depreciable real estate held by the investee, gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable property, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. This definition conforms with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trust's definition issued in April 2002. In the computation of diluted FFO, OP units, unvested restricted stock, stock options, and the shares of Series E Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock are dilutive; therefore, they are included in the diluted share count.
 
Activities of our taxable REIT subsidiary (TRS), RE3, include development and land entitlement. From time to time, we develop and subsequently sell a TRS property which results in a short-term use of funds that produces a profit that differs from the traditional long-term investment in real estate for REITs. We believe that the inclusion of these TRS gains in FFO is consistent with the standards established by NAREIT as the short-term investment is incidental to our main business. TRS gains on sales, net of taxes, are defined as net sales proceeds less a tax provision and the gross investment basis of the asset before accumulated depreciation.
 
Management considers FFO a useful metric for investors as the Company uses FFO in evaluating property acquisitions and its operating performance and believes that FFO should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income and cash flow as a measure of the Company's activities in accordance with GAAP. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs. A reconciliation from net income attributable to UDR, Inc. to FFO is provided on Attachment 2.
 
Held For Disposition Communities: The Company defines Held for Disposition Communities as those communities that were held for sale as of the end of the most recent quarter.
 
Interest Coverage Ratio: The Company defines Interest Coverage Ratio as net income, excluding the impact of interest expense, real estate depreciation and amortization of wholly owned and joint venture communities, other depreciation and amortization, noncontrolling interests, net gain on the sale of depreciable property, RE3 income tax, divided by total interest.
 
Management considers interest coverage ratio a useful metric for investors as it provides ratings agencies, investors and lending partners with a widely-used measure of the Company’s ability to service its debt obligations as well as compare leverage against that of its peer REITs. A reconciliation of the components that comprise interest coverage ratio is provided on Attachment 4(C) of the Company's quarterly supplemental disclosure.
Joint Venture Reconciliation at UDR's Weighted Average Pro-Rata Ownership Interest
   
In thousands 4Q 2013 YTD 2013

Gain on sale   (8,331 )   (8,331 )
Total Joint Venture NOI at UDR's Pro-Rata Ownership Interest $ 15,145   $ 55,786  
JV Return on Equity ("ROE"): The Company defines JV ROE as the pro rata share of property NOI plus property and asset management fee revenue less interest expense, divided by the average of beginning and ending equity capital for the quarter.
 
Management considers ROE a useful metric for investors as it provides a widely used measure of how well the Company is investing its capital on a leveraged basis.
 
JV Return on Invested Capital ("ROIC"): The Company defines JV ROIC as the pro rata share of property NOI plus property and asset management fee revenue divided by the average of beginning and ending invested capital for the quarter.
 
Management considers ROIC a useful metric for investors as it provides a widely used measure of how well the Company is investing its capital on an unleveraged basis.
 
Net Debt to EBITDA: The Company defines net debt to EBITDA as total debt net of cash and cash equivalents divided by EBITDA. EBITDA is defined as net income, excluding the impact of interest expense, real estate depreciation and amortization of wholly owned and other joint venture communities, other depreciation and amortization, noncontrolling interests, net gain on the sale of depreciable property, and RE3 income tax.
 
Management considers net debt to EBITDA a useful metric for investors as it provides ratings agencies, investors and lending partners with a widely-used measure of the Company’s ability to service its debt obligations as well as compare leverage against that of its peer REITs. A reconciliation between net income and EBITDA is provided on Attachment 4(C) of the Company's quarterly supplemental disclosure.
 
Net Operating Income (“NOI”): The Company defines NOI as rental income less direct property rental expenses. Rental income represents gross market rent less adjustments for concessions, vacancy loss and bad debt. Rental expenses include real estate taxes, insurance, personnel, utilities, repairs and maintenance, administrative and marketing. Excluded from NOI is property management expense which is calculated as 2.75% of property revenue to cover the regional supervision and accounting costs related to consolidated property operations, and land rent.
 
Management considers NOI a useful metric for investors as it is a more meaningful representation of a community’s continuing operating performance than net income as it is prior to corporate-level expense allocations, general and administrative costs, capital structure and depreciation and amortization and is a widely used input, along with capitalization rates, in the determination of real estate valuations. A reconciliation from net income attributable to UDR, Inc. to NOI is provided below.

(1) See Attachment 16 for definitions and other terms.
(2) Real estate depreciation on unconsolidated joint ventures excludes the portion of the GAAP gain (discussed in Note 3 of Attachment 1) related to depreciation, net of tax, in order to accurately reflect the FFO gain of the transaction.
(3) $2.7 million of the net gain on the sale of our interest in the unconsolidated joint venture (discussed in Note 3 of Attachment 1) is included in FFO and excluded from FFO as Adjusted as it was a gain on a development asset, which is incidental to our main business. The $2.7 million FFO gain represents the net sales proceeds less a tax provision and the gross investment basis of the asset before accumulated depreciation.
(4) During 2012, the tax benefit related to the reversal of a deferred tax valuation allowance was excluded from FFO and FFO as Adjusted. In order to be consistent with the FFO definition per NAREIT, we have modified our presentation to leave this benefit in 2012 FFO, and removed this benefit when computing FFO as Adjusted. As a result, 2012 YTD diluted FFO increased by $0.09 per share, and 2012 YTD FFO as Adjusted was unchanged.
(5) Adjustment primarily represents the portion of Hurricane Sandy insurance recoveries in 2013 that relate to the $9.3 million in charges added back to FFO as Adjusted in 4Q 2012. The $2.6 million difference between the $12.3 million hurricane-related recoveries reflected on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 and the $9.7 million adjustment above represents the amount of 2013 business interruption recoveries during 2013. The business interruption insurance recoveries for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 are offset by lost rental revenues from the business interruption in 2013.
