Portfolio Update

During the quarter ended June 30,2014, the company executed 63 leasing transactions representing approximately 812,200 square feet, contributing to an operating portfolio leased percentage on a weighted-average basis of 92.0% and a development portfolio pre-leased percentage of 81.6% at quarter end, and comprised of:

  • 47 new leases totaling approximately 493,200 square feet, highlighted by:
    • Leases with Affymetrix, Inc. for a total of approximately 82,800 square feet at two adjacent properties in the Torrey Pines submarket of San Diego, California, including approximately 53,800 square feet at 10255 Science Center Drive and approximately 29,000 square feet at 10240 Science Center Drive;
    • A lease with Sys-Tech Solutions, Inc. for approximately 50,600 square feet at the company's One Research Way property in Princeton, New Jersey;
    • A lease with OptiScan Biomedical Corporation totaling approximately 50,400 square feet at the Bridgeview Technology Park II property in Hayward, California;
    • A lease with Intertek USA, Inc. for approximately 46,100 square feet at the company's Wateridge Circle property in San Diego, California;
    • A lease expansion with Acorda Therapeutics, Inc. for approximately 25,400 square feet at the Ardsley Park campus in Ardsley, New York; and
    • A lease expansion with a global healthcare company for 24,900 square feet at the company's new development at 500 Fairview Avenue in Seattle, Washington.
  • 16 lease renewals and extensions totaling approximately 319,000 square feet, highlighted by a lease extension with a private biotechnology company for approximately 235,800 square feet, which also included approximately 26,400 square feet of new additional space, at the Pacific Research Center in Newark, California.

At June 30,2014, the company's total portfolio comprised approximately 17.2 million rentable square feet, with land supporting an estimated additional 7.5 million square feet of development potential. Second quarter same property net operating income on a cash basis increased 6.7% year-over-year, primarily as a result of sustained leasing success and contractual rent escalations. During the second quarter, the lease at the company's King of Prussia property in Radnor, Pennsylvania reached term, and, as planned, the site is now held for development potential. Had the property remained in the same property pool, same property net operating income on a cash basis would have increased 3.2% year-over-year.

During the second quarter, the company invested in two properties, 300 George Street and 100 College Street, adjacent to the Yale School of Medicine in New Haven, Connecticut. The 300 George Street property is a 519,000 square foot laboratory and office building, which is 98.7% leased and anchored by long-term leases to Yale University and the Yale-New Haven Hospital, with a weighted-average remaining lease term of over eleven years. The 100 College Street property, currently under construction, is a 510,000 square foot laboratory and office building that is pre-leased and anchored by Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. with a weighted-average remaining lease term of over 13 years. The total project investment, upon completion, is expected to be approximately $308 million.

Also during the quarter, the company made an initial $3.9 million investment in a development in the Cambridge Science Park in Cambridge, United Kingdom as a build-to-suit property for Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited. Upon completion, the property is expected to comprise approximately 42,400 square feet of laboratory and office space which will be 100% leased to Takeda for 16 years, with a projected total investment of approximately $24.4 million.

In addition, during the second quarter, as a result of a collaboration between Drexel University and Wexford Science & Technology, a subsidiary of BioMed Realty, Drexel University purchased a 14-acre site from the School District of Philadelphia which formerly housed the University City High School, the Charles Drew Elementary School and The Walnut Center. Concurrent with the close of the purchase, Drexel University took title to the underlying land and Wexford entered into a 99-year ground lease for approximately ten acres of the site which provides an estimated 2.3 million square feet of development potential, with a mixed-use plan that includes laboratory and research office, residential, retail and recreational space. The company's initial investment totaled approximately $18.2 million.

During the quarter, the company commenced construction on a 121,600 square foot laboratory and office building at 500 Fairview Avenue in Seattle, Washington. A global healthcare company will initially be leasing approximately 24,900 square feet. The two buildings together, comprising approximately 223,000 square feet of state-of-the-art life science real estate, are being renamed the BioMed Realty Research Center and will serve as an iconic hub for innovation in Seattle's life science community, offering amenities including onsite parking, a fitness center and a conference center.

In connection with an expansion by Acorda Therapeutics completed during the second quarter, the company is expanding its Ardsley Park campus by a total of 47,400 square feet to accommodate the new 25,400 square foot lease. Upon completion of the expansion, the campus will comprise approximately 207,900 square feet that is 89.4% leased.

Kent Griffin, President of BioMed Realty, remarked, "Our exceptionally strong operating results of the second quarter benefited from broad-based leasing success and three strategically important portfolio additions that expand our footprint and create new connection points at cornerstones of scientific innovation - Yale University, University of Pennsylvania, Drexel University, and the University of Cambridge. We enter our second decade as a public company with very strong momentum on all fronts, thanks to the vitality of the life science industry, our team's steady execution of our business model, and the sustained support of our tenant relationships and business partners."

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the company and Bristol-Myers Squibb entered into a ten year lease for approximately 61,000 square feet of additional laboratory space at the company's Woodside Technology Park life science campus in Redwood City, California, and extended its existing lease at the campus for 133,000 square feet by an additional 30 months. In addition, the company entered into a lease termination with the tenant for 180,000 square feet at its 50 Hampshire building in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The original lease would have reached term in December 2019. Under the terms of the agreement, the tenant will pay a termination fee of $8.5 million and vacate the space at the end of March 2015.

Second Quarter 2014 Financial Results

Rental revenues for the second quarter were approximately $120.9 million, compared to approximately $108.1 million for the same period in 2013, an increase of 11.9% and the highest in the company's history. Total revenues for the second quarter were approximately $171.2 million, compared to approximately $159.6 million for the same period in 2013, an increase of 7.2%, also the highest in the company's history. Total revenues for the second quarter 2014 include other revenue of approximately $8.1 million, relating to prepayment fees on the early repayment of the company's investment in the construction loan for the Fan Pier development in Boston, Massachusetts, which contributed approximately $0.03 per diluted share in excess of interest income expected from the loan during the quarter. Total revenues for the second quarter 2013 include other revenue of approximately $17.7 million associated with the termination of leases at the company's Science Center at Oyster Point in South San Francisco, California (which was immediately re-leased to Life Technologies Corporation).

CFFO for the first quarter was $0.40 per diluted share and FFO, calculated in accordance with standards established by NAREIT, was also $0.40 per diluted share for the quarter. AFFO for the quarter was $0.32 per diluted share. The company reported net income available to common stockholders for the quarter of approximately $18.6 million, or $0.10 per diluted share.

Financing Activity

During the second quarter of 2014, the company:

  • Repaid in full the $333.4 million principal amount outstanding on its mortgage loan secured by the Center for Life Science | Boston, which bore interest at 7.75% per annum;
  • Received an upgrade of its investment grade corporate credit rating from Standard & Poor's Ratings Services (S&P) from BBB- to BBB, after receiving a positive outlook from Moody's Investors Service in March 2014; and
  • Completed a public offering of $400 million aggregate principal amount of 2.625% Senior Notes due 2019, which were priced at 99.408% of the principal amount to yield 2.752% to maturity. Proceeds were used to repay amounts outstanding under the company's revolving credit facility.

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, certain holders of the company's exchangeable senior notes exercised their exchange rights, pursuant to which the company issued approximately 2.6 million shares of common stock in exchange for approximately $44.5 million principal amount of notes.

Also subsequent to quarter end, the company amended the terms of the loan held through its joint venture with Prudential Real Estate Investors (PREI) and secured by the PREI joint venture's 650 E. Kendall Street property in Cambridge, Massachusetts, extending the loan's maturity date to August 13, 2015 and reducing the applicable credit spread to 205 basis points, with an option to further extend the maturity date to August 13, 2016.

Commenting on the financial results of the second quarter, Greg Lubushkin, Chief Financial Officer of BioMed Realty, remarked, "Exceptional leasing results and our strategic investments continue to drive record rental revenues, robust same property cash NOI growth and steady core funds from operations, all of which are well supported by our strong, flexible balance sheet and industry-leading capital structure. Our proven capital strategy and execution was validated in the second quarter when our investment grade corporate credit rating was upgraded by S&P to BBB and we executed a highly efficient $400 million offering of 2.625% unsecured senior notes. These successes provide the foundation for us to continue to pursue strategic growth opportunities which create value for our stockholders."

Earnings Guidance

The company's updated 2014 guidance for net income per diluted share, FFO per diluted share and CFFO per diluted share are set forth and reconciled below. Projected net income per diluted share and FFO per diluted share (and CFFO per diluted share) are based upon estimated, weighted-average diluted common shares outstanding of approximately 197.8 million and 208.8 million, respectively.


2014

$0.26 - $0.30

Add:

Projected CFFO per diluted share

$1.51 - $1.55

The company's 2014 FFO and CFFO estimates reflect the company's year-to-date operating results. In addition, these estimates reflect early repayment of the construction loan in the Fan Pier development project (with previous estimates assuming repayment in the third quarter of 2014) and the 50 Hampshire lease termination executed subsequent to quarter end. The company received prepayment fees on the construction loan of approximately $8.1 million in the second quarter which, as a result of the early payoff, are partially offset, on a full year basis, by a reduction in anticipated interest income from the loan. The impact of the 50 Hampshire lease termination fee, net of related GAAP adjustments, totaled $7.5 million and will be recognized ratably as additional revenue from August 2014 through March 2015, when the lease will terminate. The impact of these two items has the net effect of increasing the company's estimates for 2014 FFO and CFFO by approximately $0.03 per diluted share.

The company continues to target new investment opportunities, including acquisitions and new development projects; however, the company's 2014 FFO and CFFO estimates do not reflect the impact of any future new investments (acquisitions or new development starts) or related financing activity, as the impact of such investments may vary significantly based on the nature of these investments, timing and other factors.

The foregoing estimates are forward-looking and reflect management's view of current and future market conditions, including certain assumptions with respect to leasing activity, rental rates, occupancy levels, interest rates, financings, acquisitions, development and redevelopment and the amount and timing of acquisitions, development and redevelopment activities. The company's actual results may differ materially from these estimates.

The three and six months ended June 30,2014 include 10,578,132 shares of common stock potentially issuable pursuant to the exchange feature of the exchangeable senior notes due 2030 based on the "if converted" method. The three and six months ended June 30, 2013 include 10,259,496 shares of common stock potentially issuable pursuant to the exchange feature of the exchangeable senior notes due 2030 based on the "if converted" method. The three months ended June 30,2014 and 2013 include 1,509,455 and 1,306,211 shares of unvested restricted stock, respectively, which are considered anti-dilutive for purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share. The six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 include 1,510,154 and 1,351,953 shares of unvested restricted stock, respectively, which are considered anti-dilutive for purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share.

We present funds from operations, or FFO, core funds from operations, or CFFO, and adjusted funds from operations, or AFFO, available to common shares and partnership and LTIP units because we consider them important supplemental measures of our operating performance and believe they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO, CFFO and AFFO when reporting their results.

FFO is intended to exclude GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate and related assets, which assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes ratably over time. Historically, however, real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions. Because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization unique to real estate, gains and losses from property dispositions and extraordinary items, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, development activities and interest costs, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income. We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT. As defined by NAREIT, FFO represents net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, impairment charges on depreciable real estate, real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of loan origination costs) and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

We calculate CFFO by adding acquisition-related expenses to FFO. We calculate AFFO by adding to CFFO: (a) non-cash revenues and expenses, (b) recurring capital expenditures and second generation tenant improvements, and (c) leasing commissions.

Our computation of FFO, CFFO and AFFO may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO, CFFO and AFFO utilized by other equity REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. Further, FFO, CFFO and AFFO do not represent cash flow available for management's discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations, or other commitments and uncertainties. FFO, CFFO and AFFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of our financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities (computed in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends or make distributions. FFO, CFFO and AFFO should be considered only as supplements to net income computed in accordance with GAAP as measures of our operations.
