CORPORATE OFFICE PROPERTIES TRUST REPORTS

STRONG THIRD QUARTER 2005 RESULTS

 

 

COLUMBIA, MD October 26, 2005 - Corporate Office Properties Trust (NYSE: OFC) announced today financial and operating results for the quarter ended September 30, 2005.

 

Highlights

 

                  50.0% increase in Earnings per Share (“EPS”) diluted to $.18 for the third quarter of 2005 from $.12 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2004. Net Income Available to Common Shareholders diluted of $6,936,000 for third quarter 2005 increased from $4,153,000 for the comparable 2004 period. Included in the third quarter 2004 net income available to common shareholders was recognition of an accounting charge of $1,813,000 reflecting the issuance costs of the Series B preferred shares redeemed July 15, 2004. Without this accounting charge, net income available to common shareholders — diluted, as adjusted, would have been $.17 per share.

 

                  20.5% increase in Funds from Operations (“FFO”) per diluted share to $.47 for the third quarter 2005 from $.39 per diluted share for third quarter 2004. Without the third quarter 2004 Series B preferred share accounting charge, FFO per diluted share would have increased 9.3%, from $.43 per diluted share.

 

                  35.1% increase in Adjusted Funds from Operations (“AFFO”) to $15.9 million for third quarter 2005 as compared to $11.8 million for third quarter 2004.

 

                  FFO payout ratio was 60.6% and AFFO payout ratio was 84.4% for third quarter 2005.

 

                  94.6% occupied and 95.8% leased for the Company’s wholly owned portfolio as of September 30, 2005.

 

                  $77.5 million in acquisitions for nine office buildings totaling 418,726 square feet plus 200 acres of land, including 132 acres of the land in which the Company owns a 50% undivided interest.

 

                  1.1 million square feet in 9 buildings under construction that are currently 51% leased.

 

                  9.8% increase in quarterly common dividend from $.255 to $.28 per share.

 



 

 

                  9.0% increase for same property cash net operating income (NOI), compared to the same quarter 2004.

 

                  $75.3 million of equity raised through a 2.3 million common share offering.

 

“We have increased our 2005 FFO guidance and are providing our initial 2006 FFO guidance, that reflects a 10% FFO per diluted share growth for next year based on the upper end of the range,” stated Randall M. Griffin, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We are very pleased with our overall performance this year and are well on our way to meeting or exceeding almost all of our 2005 goals, including occupancy, dispositions, acquisitions, FFO growth and expansion into new tenant driven locations. Our 9% growth in same property NOI for this quarter is indicative of the strength of our markets, which should provide the basis for continued growth over the next few years,” he added.

 

Financial Results

 

                  EPS for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 totaled $.18 per diluted share, or $6,936,000 of Net Income Available to Common Shareholders, as compared to $.12 per diluted share, or $4,153,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2004, representing an increase of 50.0% per share. Included in the third quarter 2004 net income available to common shareholders was recognition of an accounting charge of $1,813,000 reflecting the write-off of issuance costs of the Series B preferred shares redeemed July 15, 2004. Without this accounting charge, net income available to common shareholders — diluted, as adjusted, would have been $.17 per share.

                  Diluted FFO for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 totaled $22,127,000, or $.47 per diluted share, as compared to $17,368,000, or $.39 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2004, representing an increase of 20.5% per share.

At September 30, 2005, the Company’s wholly owned portfolio of 136 office properties totaling 11.7 million square feet, was 94.6% occupied and 95.8% leased. The Company’s entire portfolio including the unconsolidated joint ventures, was 93.8% occupied and 95.0% leased.

(1)          Total Annualized Rental Revenue is the monthly contractual base rent as of September 30, 2005 multiplied by 12 plus the estimated annualized expense reimbursements under existing office leases.

(2)          The weighting of the lease term was computed using Total Rental Revenue.

(3)          Many of our government leases are subject to early termination provisions which are customary to government leases. The weighted average remaining lease term was computed assuming no exercise of such early termination rights.

(4)          Includes affiliated organizations or agencies.

(5)          Merck & Co., Inc. subleases 219,065 rentable square feet from Unisys’ 960,349 leased rentable square feet.

(6)          Order of tenants is based on Annualized Rent.
