KIMCO REALTY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Interim Financial Statements
Principles of Consolidation -
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include
the accounts of Kimco Realty Corporation (the "Company"), its subsidiaries, all
of which are wholly owned, and all entities in which the Company has a
controlling interest. The information furnished is unaudited and reflects all
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to reflect a fair
statement of the results for the interim periods presented, and all such
adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K.
Certain 2003 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2004
financial statement presentation.
Income Taxes -
The Company and its qualified REIT subsidiaries file a consolidated
federal income tax return. The Company has made an election to qualify, and
believes it is operating so as to qualify, as a Real Estate Investment Trust (a
"REIT") for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company generally will
not be subject to federal income tax, provided that distributions to its
stockholders equal at least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined
under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the
"Code"). However, in connection with the Tax Relief Extension Act of 1999, which
became effective January 1, 2001, the Company is now permitted to participate in
certain activities which it was previously precluded from in order to maintain
its qualification as a REIT, so long as these activities are conducted in
entities which elect to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries under the Code.
As such, the Company will be subject to federal and state income taxes on the
income from these activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the
Company's provision for federal and state income taxes was approximately $4.7
million relating to activities conducted in its taxable REIT subsidiaries.

(a) For the period ended March 31, 2003, the effect of the assumed
conversion of downREIT units would have an anti-dilutive effect upon the
calculation of Income from continuing operations per share. Accordingly, the
impact of such conversion has not been included in the determination of diluted
earnings per share calculations.
The Company maintains a stock option plan (the "Plan") for which prior
to January 1, 2003, the Company accounted for under the intrinsic value-based
method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion
No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations
including Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Interpretation No. 44,
Accounting for Certain Transactions involving Stock Compensation (an
interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25), issued in March 2000. Effective January
1, 2003, the Company adopted the prospective method provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation - Transition and Disclosure an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123
("SFAS No. 148"), which will apply the recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123,
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation ("SFAS No. 123") to all employee awards
granted, modified or settled after January 1, 2003. Awards under the Company's
Plan generally vest ratably over a three-year term and expire ten years from the
date of grant. Therefore, the cost related to stock-based employee compensation
included in the determination of net income for the three months ended March 31,
2004 is less than that which would have been recognized if the fair value based
method had been applied to all awards since the original effective date of SFAS
No. 123. The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings
per share if the fair value based method had been applied to all outstanding
stock awards in each period (amount presented in thousands except for per share
data):

In addition, there were approximately 24,000 and 1,026,775 stock
options that were anti-dilutive for the three month period ended March 31, 2004
and 2003, respectively.
New Accounting Pronouncements -
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation
of Variable Interest Entities ("FIN 46"), the primary objective of which is to
provide guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved
through means other than voting rights ("variable interest entities" or "VIEs")
and to determine when and which business enterprise should consolidate the VIE
(the "primary beneficiary"). This new model applies when either (i) the equity
investors (if any) do not have a controlling financial interest or (ii) the
equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity's activities
without additional financial support. In addition, effective upon issuance, FIN
46 requires additional disclosures by the primary beneficiary and other
significant variable interest holders. The provisions of FIN 46 apply
immediately to VIE's created after January 31, 2003. In October 2003, the FASB
issued FASB Staff Position 46-6, which deferred the effective date to December
31, 2003 for applying the provisions of FIN 46 for interests held by public
companies in all VIEs created prior to February 1, 2003. Additionally, in
December 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46(R), Consolidation of
Variable Interest Entities (revised December 2003) ("FIN 46(R)"). The provisions
of FIN 46(R) are effective as of March 31, 2004 for all non-special purpose
entity ("non-SPE") interests held by public companies in all variable interest
entities created prior to February 1, 2003. The adoption of FIN 46(R) did not
have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of
operations.
10
The Company's joint ventures and other real estate investments
primarily consist of co-investments with institutional and other joint venture
partners in neighborhood and community shopping center properties, consistent
with its core business. These joint ventures typically obtain non-recourse third
party financing on their property investments, thus contractually limiting the
Company's losses to the amount of its equity investment; and due to the lender's
exposure to losses, a lender typically will require a minimum level of equity in
order to mitigate their risk. The Company's exposure to losses associated with
its unconsolidated joint ventures is limited to its carrying value in these
investments.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain
Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity ("SFAS
No. 150"). This statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and
measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities
and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is
within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). The
provisions of this statement are effective for financial instruments entered
into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise are effective at the
beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003. On November
7, 2003, the FASB deferred the classification and measurement provisions of SFAS
No. 150 as they apply to certain mandatorily redeemable non-controlling
interests. This deferral is expected to remain in effect while these provisions
are further evaluated by the FASB. As a result of this deferral, the adoption of
SFAS No. 150 did not have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial
position or results of operations.
11
At March 31, 2004, the estimated fair value of minority interests
relating to mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests associated with
finite-lived subsidiaries of the Company is approximately $28.0 million. These
finite-lived subsidiaries have termination dates ranging from 2019 to 2052.
2. Operating Property Activities
During January 2004, the Company acquired a shopping center property
located in Hyannis, MA, comprising approximately 0.2 million square feet of
gross leasable area ("GLA"), for a purchase price of approximately $37.0 million
including the assumption of approximately $18.8 million of non-recourse mortgage
debt.
During January 2004, the Company acquired a shopping center property
located in Temple, TX, through a joint venture in which the Company holds a 60%
controlling interest, for a purchase price of approximately $25.5 million
including the assumption of approximately $21.7 million of non-recourse mortgage
debt.
During February 2004, the Company acquired an interest in a shopping
center property located in Towson, MD, comprising approximately 0.7 million
square feet of GLA, for a purchase price of approximately $81.5 million
including the assumption of approximately $47.8 million of non-recourse mortgage
debt. In connection with the funding of this transaction the Company issued the
seller downREIT units valued at approximately $24.1 million. The units provide
the holder a 4.5% return per annum on the value of the units with distributions
made on a monthly basis. The value of the units is included in Minority Interest
in partnerships on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
During 2003, the Company disposed of four properties for net proceeds
of $41.2 million which were placed in escrow for use in a 1031 exchange
transaction. These proceeds together with an additional $13.7 million cash
investment were used to acquire an exchange shopping center property located in
Holmdel, NJ, comprising approximately 0.2 million square feet of GLA, during
February 2004.
During March 2004, the Company acquired a shopping center property
located in Pacifica, CA, comprising approximately 0.2 million square feet of
GLA, for a purchase price of approximately $28.5 million.
During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company reclassified
as held-for-sale two shopping center properties comprising approximately 0.3
million square feet of GLA. The book value of these properties, aggregating
approximately $8.7 million, net of accumulated depreciation of approximately
$4.2 million, exceeded their estimated fair value. The Company's determination
of the fair value of these properties, aggregating approximately $4.5 million,
is based upon contracts of sale with third parties less estimated selling costs.
As a result, the Company has recorded a loss resulting from an adjustment of
property carrying values of $4.2 million. During March 2004, the Company had
completed the sale of one of these properties, comprising approximately 0.1
million square feet of GLA, for a sales price of approximately $1.1 million. In
accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long
Lived Assets, the loss along with the related property operations for the
current and comparative years, have been included in the caption Discontinued
operations on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
12
During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company disposed of
three additional operating properties, in separate transactions, for an
aggregate sales price of $10.3 million and terminated one ground lease position.
These dispositions resulted in aggregate gains of approximately $1.2 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2004. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, the
operations and aggregate gain on disposition of these properties have been
included in the caption Discontinued operations on the Condensed Consolidated
Statements of Income.
3. Discontinued Operations
In accordance with SFAS No. 144, the Company reports as discontinued
operations properties held for sale (as defined by SFAS 144) and operating
properties sold in the current period. All results of these discontinued
operations are included in a separate component of income on the Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Income under Discontinued operations. This change has
resulted in certain reclassifications of 2003 financial statement amounts.
The components of Income/(loss) from operations related to discontinued
operations for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 are shown below.
These include the results of operations through the date of each respective sale
for properties sold during 2004 and 2003 and a full quarter of operations for
those assets classified as held for sale as of March 31, 2004 (in thousands):

wholly-owned development taxable REIT subsidiary, sold one of its recently
completed projects and seven of its out-parcels, in separate transactions, for
approximately $49.3 million. These sales provided gains of approximately $3.9
million, net of income taxes of $2.6 million.
Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2004, KDI
obtained construction financing on two ground-up development properties for an
aggregate loan amount of up to $25.1 million, of which approximately $4.2

2004.
5. Investments and Advances in Real Estate Joint Ventures

Venture") with RioCan Real Estate Investment Trust ("RioCan", Canada's largest
publicly traded REIT measured by GLA) in which the Company has a 50% interest,
to acquire retail properties and development projects in Canada. The
acquisitions and development projects are to be sourced and managed by RioCan
and are subject to review and approval by a joint oversight committee consisting
of RioCan management and the Company's management personnel. As of March 31,
2004, the RioCan Venture consisted of 31 shopping center properties and three
development projects aggregating 7.3 million square feet of GLA. During the

respectively.
KROP Venture -
During October 2001, the Company formed the Kimco Retail Opportunity
Portfolio ("KROP"), a venture with GE Real Estate ("GERE") which the Company
manages and has a 20% interest. The purpose of this venture is to acquire
established, high-growth potential retail properties in the United States. The
initial funding for this venture consists of an equity pool of up to $250.0
million, provided $50.0 million by the Company and $200.0 million by GERE. The
Company will be responsible for the day-to-day management, redevelopment and
leasing of the properties acquired and will be paid fees for those services. In
addition, the Company will earn fees related to the acquisition and disposition
of the properties by KROP. Capital contributions will only be required as
suitable opportunities arise and are agreed to by the Company and GECRE.
15
During the three months ended March 31, 2004, KROP sold two properties
for an aggregate sales price of approximately $20.1 million and acquired a
property for a purchase price of approximately $13.5 million. As of March 31,
2004, the KROP venture consisted of 22 properties aggregating 3.4 million square
feet of GLA located in 12 states. For the three months ended March 31, 2004 and
2003, the Company recognized equity in income of KROP of approximately $1.7
million and $0.4 million, respectively. Additionally, during the three months
ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company earned management and acquisition
fees of approximately $0.7 million and $0.6 million, respectively.
Other Real Estate Joint Ventures -
During January 2004, the Company acquired a property located in
Marlborough, MA, through a joint venture in which the Company has a 40%
non-controlling interest. The property was acquired for a purchase price of
approximately $26.5 million, including $21.2 million of non-recourse debt
encumbering the property.
During March 2004, the Company transferred an operating property,
located in Raleigh, NC, comprising approximately 0.1 million square feet of GLA,
to a newly formed joint venture in which the Company has a 10% non-controlling
interest for a price of approximately $16.5 million.
6. Other Real Estate Investments
Kimsouth -
During November 2002, the Company through its taxable REIT subsidiary,
together with Prometheus Southeast Retail Trust, completed the merger and
privatization of Konover Property Trust, which has been renamed Kimsouth Realty,
Inc., ("Kimsouth"). The Company acquired 44.5% of the common stock of Kimsouth,
which consisted primarily of 38 retail shopping center properties comprising
approximately 4.6 million square feet of GLA. Total acquisition value was
approximately $280.9 million including approximately $216.2 million in mortgage
debt. The Company's investment strategy with respect to Kimsouth includes
re-tenanting, repositioning and disposition of the properties. As of March 31,
2004, Kimsouth consisted of 19 properties aggregating approximately 2.8 million
square feet of GLA located in six states. During the three months ended March
31, 2004, Kimsouth sold three properties, in separate transactions, for an
aggregate sales price of approximately $31.9 million. For the three months ended
March 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company recognized equity in income of Kimsouth of
approximately $3.7 million and $3.0 million, respectively. Additionally, during
the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company earned management
fees of approximately $0.4 million and $0.2 million, respectively.
16
Preferred Equity Capital -
During 2002, the Company established a preferred equity program, which
provides capital to developers and owners of shopping centers. As of March 31,
2004, the Company has provided an aggregate of approximately $79.3 million in
investment capital to developers and owners of 28 shopping centers. During the
three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company earned approximately
$1.3 million and $0.9 million, respectively, from these investments.
7. Mortgages and Other Financing Receivables
During May 2002, the Company provided a $15 million three-year term
loan and a $7.5 million revolving credit facility to Frank's Nursery & Crafts,
Inc. ("Frank's"), at an interest rate of 10.25% per annum collateralized by 40
real estate interests. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears. During 2003,
the revolving credit facility was amended to increase the total borrowing
capacity to $17.5 million. During January 2004, the revolving loan was further
amended to provide up to $33.75 million of borrowings from the Company. As of
March 31, 2004, the aggregate outstanding loan balance was approximately $46.2
million.
During March 2002, the Company provided a $15.0 million three-year loan
to Gottchalks, Inc., at an interest rate of 12.0% per annum collateralized by
three properties. The Company received principal and interest payments on a
monthly basis. During March 2004, Gottchalks, Inc., elected to prepay the
remaining outstanding loan balance of approximately $13.2 million in full
satisfaction of this loan.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto.
These unaudited financial statements include all adjustments which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary to reflect a fair statement of the results for
the interim periods presented, and all such adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature.
Results of Operations
Revenues from rental property increased $20.4 million or 17.1% to
$139.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, as compared with
$119.5 million for the corresponding quarter ended March 31, 2003. This net
increase resulted primarily from the combined effect of (i) the acquisition of
five operating properties during the three months ended March 31, 2004,
providing incremental revenues of $3.0 million, (ii) acquisitions throughout
calendar year 2003 of 55 operating properties (including 41 operating properties
acquired in the Mid-Atlantic Realty Trust transaction) providing incremental
revenues of $20.1 million, (iii) an overall increase in shopping center
portfolio occupancy to 91.9% at March 31, 2004, as compared to 89.1% at March
31, 2003 and the completion of certain development and redevelopment projects,
providing incremental revenues of approximately $2.7 million as compared to the
corresponding three month period in 2003, offset by (iv) the transfer of
operating properties to various joint venture entities throughout 2003 and the
three months ended March 31, 2004 and tenant buyouts, resulting in a decrease of
revenues of approximately $5.4 million for the three months ended March 31,
2004, as compared to the corresponding three month period in 2003.
Rental property expenses, including depreciation and amortization,
increased $11.6 million or 22.5% to $63.4 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2004, as compared to $51.8 million for the corresponding quarter ended
March 31, 2003. This increase is primarily due to property acquisitions during
2004 and 2003 which was partially offset by property transfers to joint
ventures.
Income from other real estate investments increased $1.3 million to
$6.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, as compared to $4.9 for
the corresponding quarter ended March 31, 2003. This increase is primarily due
to (i) increased investment in the Company's Preferred Equity program which
contributed $1.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2004, as compared to
$0.9 million for the corresponding quarter ended March 31, 2003 and (ii)
increased contributions from the Kimsouth investment of $3.7 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2004, as compared to $3.0 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2003.
19
Mortgage financing income decreased $2.0 million to $3.6 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2004, as compared to $5.6 million for the
corresponding quarter ended March 31, 2003. This decrease is primarily due to
lower interest and financing income earned relating to certain real estate
lending activities during the three months ended March 31, 2004, as compared to
the corresponding three months ended March 31, 2003.
Management and other fee income increased approximately $2.9 million to
$5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, as compared to $2.9
million for the corresponding period in 2003. This increase is primarily due to
(i) incremental fees earned from growth in the co-investment program and (ii)
fees earned from disposition services provided to various retailers.
Interest expense increased $4.4 million to $27.4 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2004, as compared with $23.0 million for the
corresponding quarter ended March 31, 2003. This increase is primarily due to an
overall increase in borrowings during 2004 and 2003 including additional
borrowings and assumption of mortgage debt in connection with the Mid-Atlantic
Realty Trust transaction.
During February 2003, the Company reached agreement with a lender in
connection with two individual non-recourse mortgages encumbering two former
Kmart sites. The Company paid approximately $8.3 million in full satisfaction of
these loans which aggregated approximately $14.7 million. As a result of this
transaction, the Company recognized a gain on early extinguishment of debt of
approximately $6.3 million during the first quarter of 2003.
Equity in income of real estate joint ventures, net increased $4.8
million to $14.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004, as compared
to $9.2 million for the corresponding quarter ended March 31, 2003. This
increase is primarily attributable to the equity in income from the Kimco Income
REIT joint venture investment ("KIR"), the RioCan joint venture investment
("RioCan Venture") and the Kimco Retail Opportunity Fund joint venture
investment ("KROP"). The Company has made additional capital investments in
these joint ventures and others for the acquisition of additional shopping
center properties by the ventures throughout 2003 and the three months ended
March 31, 2004.
20
During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company reclassified
as held-for-sale two shopping center properties comprising approximately 0.3
million square feet. The book value of these properties, aggregating
approximately $8.7 million, net of accumulated depreciation of approximately
$4.2 million, exceeded their estimated fair value. The Company's determination
of the fair value of these properties, aggregating approximately $4.5 million,
is based upon contracts of sale with third parties less estimated selling costs.
As a result, the Company has recorded a loss resulting from an adjustment of
property carrying values of $4.2 million. During March 2004, the Company had
completed the sale of one of these properties, comprising approximately 0.1
million square feet of GLA, for a sales price of approximately $1.1 million. In
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting
for Impairment or Disposal of Long Lived Assets ("SFAS No. 144"), the loss along
with the related property operations for the current and comparative years, has
been included in the caption Discontinued operations on the Company's Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Income.
During the three months ended March 31, 2004, the Company (i) disposed
of three additional operating properties, in separate transactions, for an
aggregate sales price of $10.3 million and (ii) terminated one ground lease
position. These dispositions resulted in aggregate gains of approximately $1.2
million for the three months ended March 31, 2004. In accordance with SFAS No.
144, the operations and aggregate gain on disposition of these properties have
been included in the caption Discontinued operations on the Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Income.
During the three months ended March 31, 2003, the Company sold
operating properties in Bridgeview, IL and Trexlertown, PA, in separate
transactions, for aggregate proceeds of $5.9 million, which resulted in gains of
approximately $3.3 million.
Effective January 1, 2001, the Company elected taxable REIT subsidiary
status for its wholly-owned development subsidiary ("KDI"). KDI is primarily
engaged in the ground-up development of neighborhood and community shopping
centers and the subsequent sale thereof upon completion. During the three months
ended March 31, 2004, KDI sold one project and seven out-parcels, in separate
transactions, for approximately $49.3 million. These sales resulted in gains of
approximately $3.9 million, net of income taxes of $2.6 million.
During the three months ended March 31, 2003, KDI sold five
out-parcels, in separate transactions, for approximately $4.0 million, which
resulted in gains of approximately $0.8 million, net of income taxes of $0.5
million.
21
Income from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31,
2004 was $70.9 million, as compared to $61.4 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2003, representing an increase of $9.5 million. On a diluted per share
basis, income from continuing operations increased $0.10 to $0.64 for the three
month period ended March 31, 2004, as compared to $0.54 for the corresponding
quarter in the previous year. This increase is primarily attributable to (i) the
acquisition of operating properties during the three months ended March 31, 2004
and throughout calendar year 2003, including the Mid-Atlantic Realty Trust
transaction, (ii) an increase in equity in income of real estate joint ventures
resulting from additional capital investments in KIR, the RioCan Venture, KROP
and other joint venture investments for the acquisition of additional shopping
center properties by the ventures throughout 2003 and the three months ended
March 31, 2004 and (iii) increased gains on sale of development properties for
the three months ended March 31, 2004 as compared to the same period last year.
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2004 was $71.4 million,
as compared to $71.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2003. On a
diluted per share basis, net income decreased $0.02 to $0.61 for the three month
period ended March 31, 2004, as compared to $0.63 for the corresponding quarter
in the previous year. This decrease is primarily attributable to (i) losses on
operating properties held for sale/sold of $4.2 million during the three months
ended March 31, 2004 as compared to gains of $1.2 million for the same period
last year and (ii) gains on the early extinguishment of debt of $6.3 million
recognized during the quarter ended March 31, 2003.
Tenant Concentration
The Company seeks to reduce its operating and leasing risks through
diversification achieved by the geographic distribution of its properties,
avoiding dependence on any single property, and a large tenant base. At March
31, 2004, the Company's five largest tenants include TJX Companies, The Home
Depot, Kmart Corporation, Kohl's and Royal Ahold which represented approximately
3.0%, 2.9%, 2.9%, 2.7% and 2.5%, respectively, of the Company's annualized base
rental revenues including the proportionate share of base rental revenues from
properties in which the Company has less than a 100% economic interest.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
It is management's intention that the Company continually have access
to the capital resources necessary to expand and develop its business. As such,
the Company intends to operate with and maintain a conservative capital
structure with a level of debt to total market capitalization of 50% or less. As
of March 31, 2004, the Company's level of debt to total market capitalization
was 28%. In addition, the Company intends to maintain strong debt service
coverage and fixed charge coverage ratios as part of its commitment to
maintaining its investment-grade debt ratings. The Company may, from time to
time, seek to obtain funds through additional equity offerings, unsecured debt
financings and/or mortgage financings and other debt and equity alternatives in
a manner consistent with its intention to operate with a conservative debt
structure.
22
Since the completion of the Company's IPO in 1991, the Company has
utilized the public debt and equity markets as its principal source of capital
for its expansion needs. Since the IPO, the Company has completed additional
offerings of its public unsecured debt and equity, raising in the aggregate over
$3.3 billion for the purposes of, among other things, repaying indebtedness,
acquiring interests in neighborhood and community shopping centers, funding
ground-up development projects, expanding and improving properties in the
portfolio and other investments.
The Company has a $500.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility,
which is scheduled to expire in August 2006. This credit facility has made
available funds to both finance the purchase of properties and other investments
and meet any short-term working capital requirements. As of March 31, 2004,
there was $60.0 million outstanding under this credit facility.
The Company also has a $300.0 million medium-term notes ("MTN") program
pursuant to which it may, from time to time, offer for sale its senior unsecured
debt for any general corporate purposes, including (i) funding specific
liquidity requirements in its business, including property acquisitions,
development and redevelopment costs and (ii) managing the Company's debt
maturities. As of March 31, 2004, the Company had $300.0 million available for
issuance under the MTN program.
In addition to the public equity and debt markets as capital sources,
the Company may, from time to time, obtain mortgage financing on selected
properties. As of March 31, 2004, the Company had over 400 unencumbered property
interests in its portfolio.
During May 2003, the company filed a shelf registration statement on
Form S-3 for up to $1.0 billion of debt securities, preferred stock, depositary
shares, common stock and common stock warrants. As of March 31, 2004, the
Company had $609.7 million available for issuance under this shelf registration
statement.
In connection with its intention to continue to qualify as a REIT for
federal income tax purposes, the Company expects to continue paying regular
dividends to its stockholders. These dividends will be paid from operating cash
flows which are expected to increase due to property acquisitions, growth in
operating income in the existing portfolio and from other investments. Since
cash used to pay dividends reduces amounts available for capital investment, the
Company generally intends to maintain a conservative dividend payout ratio,
reserving such amounts as it considers necessary for the expansion and
renovation of shopping centers in its portfolio, debt reduction, the acquisition
of interests in new properties and other investments as suitable opportunities
arise, and such other factors as the Board of Directors considers appropriate.
23
The Company anticipates that cash flows from operations will continue
to provide adequate capital to fund its operating and administrative expenses,
regular debt service obligations and all dividend payments in accordance with
REIT requirements in both the short-term and long-term. In addition, the Company
anticipates that cash on hand, availability under its revolving credit facility,
issuance of equity and public debt, as well as other debt and equity
alternatives, will provide the necessary capital required by the Company. Cash
flows from operations increased to $107.5 million for the quarter ended March
31, 2004, as compared to $84.8 million for the corresponding period ended March
31, 2003.
Effects of Inflation
Many of the Company's leases contain provisions designed to mitigate
the adverse impact of inflation. Such provisions include clauses enabling the
Company to receive payment of additional rent calculated as a percentage of
tenants' gross sales above pre-determined thresholds, which generally increase
as prices rise, and/or escalation clauses, which generally increase rental rates
during the terms of the leases. Such escalation clauses often include increases
based upon changes in the consumer price index or similar inflation indices. In
addition, many of the Company's leases are for terms of less than 10 years,
which permits the Company to seek to increase rents to market rates upon
renewal. Most of the Company's leases require the tenant to pay an allocable
share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance costs, real
estate taxes and insurance, thereby reducing the Company's exposure to increases
in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. The Company
periodically evaluates its exposure to short-term interest rates and foreign
currency exchange rates and will, from time to time, enter into interest rate
protection agreements and/or foreign currency hedge agreements which mitigate,
but do not eliminate, the effect of changes in interest rates on its
floating-rate debt and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued Interpretation No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities ("FIN
46"), the primary objective of which is to provide guidance on the
identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other
than voting rights ("variable interest entities" or "VIEs") and to determine
when and which business enterprise should consolidate the VIE (the "primary
beneficiary"). This new model applies when either (i) the equity investors (if
any) do not have a controlling financial interest or (ii) the equity investment
at risk is insufficient to finance that entity's activities without additional
financial support. In addition, effective upon issuance, FIN 46 requires
additional disclosures by the primary beneficiary and other significant variable
interest holders. The provisions of FIN 46 apply immediately to VIE's created
after January 31, 2003. In October 2003, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position
46-6, which deferred the effective date to December 31, 2003 for applying the
provisions of FIN 46 for interests held by public companies in all VIEs created
prior to February 1, 2003. Additionally, in December 2003, the FASB issued
Interpretation No. 46(R), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (revised
December 2003) ("FIN 46(R)"). The provisions of FIN 46(R) are effective as of
March 31, 2004 for all non-special purpose entity ("non-SPE") interests held by
public companies in all variable interest entities created prior to February 1,
2003. The adoption of FIN 46(R) did not have a material impact on the Company's
financial position or results of operations.
24
The Company's joint ventures and other real estate investments
primarily consist of co-investments with institutional and other joint venture
partners in neighborhood and community shopping center properties, consistent
with its core business. These joint ventures typically obtain non-recourse third
party financing on their property investments, thus contractually limiting the
Company's losses to the amount of its equity investment; and due to the lender's
exposure to losses, a lender typically will require a minimum level of equity in
order to mitigate their risk. The Company's exposure to losses associated with
its unconsolidated joint ventures is limited to its carrying value in these
investments.
Forward-looking Statements
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q, together with other statements and
information publicly disseminated by the Company contains certain
forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended. The Company intends such forward-looking statements to be covered by
the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and include this statement for
purposes of complying with these safe harbor provisions. Forward-looking
statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe the Company's
future plans, strategies and expectations, are generally identifiable by use of
the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "project" or
similar expressions. You should not rely on forward-looking statements since
they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which are,
in some cases, beyond the Company's control and which could materially affect
actual results, performances or achievements. Factors which may cause actual
results to differ materially from current expectations include, but are not
limited to, (i) general economic and local real estate conditions, (ii) the
inability of major tenants to continue paying their rent obligations due to
bankruptcy, insolvency or general downturn in their business, (iii) financing
risks, such as the inability to obtain equity or debt financing on favorable
terms, (iv) changes in governmental laws and regulations, (v) the level and
volatility of interest rates, (vi) the availability of suitable acquisition
opportunities and (vii) increases in operating costs. Accordingly, there is no
assurance that the Company's expectations will be realized.
25
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
As of March 31, 2004, the Company had approximately $565.5 million of
floating-rate debt outstanding including $60.0 million on its unsecured
revolving credit facility, $85.0 million of unsecured MTN's due August 2004 and
$329.0 million on its bridge loan due September 2004 related to the Mid-Atlantic
Realty Trust transaction. The Company believes the interest rate risk on its
floating-rate debt is not material to the Company or its overall capitalization.
As of March 31, 2004, the Company had Canadian investments totaling CAD
$179.8 million (approximately USD $137.2 million) comprised of investments in
real estate joint ventures and marketable securities. In addition, the Company
has Mexican real estate investments of approximately MXN $337.5 million
(approximately USD $30.5 million). The foreign currency exchange risk has been
mitigated through the use of foreign currency forward contracts (the "Forward
Contracts") and a cross currency swap (the "CC Swap") with major financial
institutions. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of
non-performance by the counter-party to the Forward Contracts and the CC Swap.
The Company believes it mitigates its credit risk by entering into the Forward
