CBL’s President and Chief Executive Officer Stephen Lebovitz commented,
“First quarter highlights include an impressive 7% increase in
same-center sales and the continuation of double-digit lease spreads.
Same-center NOI and occupancy were impacted by the lost income from
bankruptcy-related store closures; however, continued healthy demand
from higher quality retailers will result in a stronger tenant mix
across the CBL portfolio.
“We are making solid progress in executing our disposition program. We
closed on the sale of one mall this week and expect to make additional
announcements in the near future. We are growing our portfolio with
Fremaux Town Center Phase II and Ambassador Town Center now under
construction as well as expansions to our Atlanta and Bluegrass outlets.
Redevelopments, such as the former Sears at CoolSprings Galleria and
Fayette Mall, bring exciting new retailers and restaurants to our
centers and enhance our long-term growth rate.”
FFO allocable to common shareholders, as adjusted, for the first quarter
2015 was $87.9 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, compared with $87.7
million, or $0.52 per diluted share, for the first quarter 2014. FFO of
the Operating Partnership, as adjusted, for the first quarter 2015 was
$102.9 million compared with $102.9 million for the first quarter of
2014.
Net income attributable to common shareholders for the first quarter of
2015 was $34.9 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, compared with net
income of $44.1 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, for the first
quarter of 2014.

(1) CBL’s definition of same-center NOI excludes the
impact of lease termination fees and certain non-cash items of
straight line rents and net amortization of acquired above and
below market leases. NOI is for real estate properties and
excludes income of the Company’s subsidiary that provides
maintenance, janitorial and security services.

MAJOR VARIANCES IMPACTING SAME-CENTER NOI RESULTS FOR THE QUARTER
ENDED MARCH 31, 2015
-
New leasing and positive renewal spreads contributed to a $0.9 million
increase in same-center minimum rents. Minimum rents were impacted by
lost income from bankruptcy related store closures.
-
Percentage rents increased by $0.4 million due to positive sales
growth.
-
Tenant reimbursement of real estate tax expense increased by $1.4
million, offset by a $2.3 million increase in real estate tax expense.
-
Property operating expense increased by $0.8 million, primarily as a
result of a negative variance of $1.1 million due to an insurance
adjustment in the prior year period and a $0.4 million increase in bad
debt expense.
-
Maintenance and repairs declined by $1.2 million, primarily as a
result of a $0.5 million decline in snow removal expense and a decline
in other expenses.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Funds From Operations
FFO is a widely used measure of the operating performance of real estate
companies that supplements net income (loss) determined in accordance
with GAAP. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts
(“NAREIT”) defines FFO as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with
GAAP) excluding gains or losses on sales of depreciable operating
properties and impairment losses of depreciable properties, plus
depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated
partnerships and joint ventures and noncontrolling interests.
Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures and
noncontrolling interests are calculated on the same basis. We define FFO
allocable to common shareholders as defined above by NAREIT less
dividends on preferred stock. The Company’s method of calculating FFO
allocable to its common shareholders may be different from methods used
by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other
REITs.
The Company believes that FFO provides an additional indicator of the
operating performance of its properties without giving effect to real
estate depreciation and amortization, which assumes the value of real
estate assets declines predictably over time. Since values of
well-maintained real estate assets have historically risen with market
conditions, the Company believes that FFO enhances investors’
understanding of its operating performance. The use of FFO as an
indicator of financial performance is influenced not only by the
operations of the Company’s properties and interest rates, but also by
its capital structure. The Company presents both FFO of its Operating
Partnership and FFO allocable to its common shareholders, as it believes
that both are useful performance measures. The Company believes FFO of
its Operating Partnership is a useful performance measure since it
conducts substantially all of its business through its Operating
Partnership and, therefore, it reflects the performance of the
properties in absolute terms regardless of the ratio of ownership
interests of the Company’s common shareholders and the noncontrolling
interest in the Operating Partnership. The Company believes FFO
allocable to its common shareholders is a useful performance measure
because it is the performance measure that is most directly comparable
to net income (loss) attributable to its common shareholders.
In the reconciliation of net income attributable to the Company’s common
shareholders to FFO allocable to its common shareholders, located in
this earnings release, the Company makes an adjustment to add back
noncontrolling interest in income (loss) of its Operating Partnership in
order to arrive at FFO of its Operating Partnership. The Company then
applies a percentage to FFO of its Operating Partnership to arrive at
FFO allocable to its common shareholders. The percentage is computed by
taking the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the
period and dividing it by the sum of the weighted average number of
common shares and the weighted average number of Operating Partnership
units outstanding during the period.
FFO does not represent cash flows from operations as defined by
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, is not
necessarily indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs and
should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) for
purposes of evaluating the Company’s operating performance or to cash
flow as a measure of liquidity.
As described above, during the first quarter of 2015, the Company
recognized a $16.6 million gain on investment related to the sale of
marketable securities and received income of $4.7 million, net of
related expense, as a partial settlement of ongoing litigation. During
the first quarter of 2014, the Company recognized a $42.7 million net
gain on the extinguishment of debt in connection with the foreclosure of
the mortgage loan encumbering Citadel Mall and the early retirement of
the mortgage loan encumbering St. Clair Square. Additionally, the
Company received income of $0.8 million as a partial settlement of
ongoing litigation. Considering the significance and nature of these
items, the Company believes it is important to identify their impact on
its FFO measures for readers to have a complete understanding of the
Company’s results of operations. Therefore, the Company has also
presented adjusted FFO measures excluding these items from the
applicable periods.
Same-center Net Operating Income
NOI is a supplemental measure of the operating performance of the
Company’s shopping centers and other properties. The Company defines NOI
as property operating revenues (rental revenues, tenant reimbursements
and other income) less property operating expenses (property operating,
real estate taxes and maintenance and repairs).
Similar to FFO, the Company computes NOI based on its pro rata share of
both consolidated and unconsolidated properties. The Company’s
definition of NOI may be different than that used by other companies
and, accordingly, the Company’s NOI may not be comparable to that of
other companies.
Since NOI includes only those revenues and expenses related to the
operations of its shopping center and other properties, the Company
believes that same-center NOI provides a measure that reflects trends in
occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs and the impact of
those trends on the Company’s results of operations. The Company’s
calculation of same-center NOI also excludes lease termination income,
straight-line rent adjustments, and amortization of above and below
market lease intangibles in order to enhance the comparability of
results from one period to another, as these items can be impacted by
one-time events that may distort same-center NOI trends and may result
in same-center NOI that is not indicative of the ongoing operations of
the Company’s shopping center and other properties. A reconciliation of
same-center NOI to net income is located at the end of this earnings
release.
Pro Rata Share of Debt
The Company presents debt based on its pro rata ownership share
(including the Company’s pro rata share of unconsolidated affiliates and
excluding noncontrolling interests’ share of consolidated properties)
because it believes this provides investors a clearer understanding of
the Company’s total debt obligations which affect the Company’s
liquidity. A reconciliation of the Company’s pro rata share of debt to
the amount of debt on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet is
located at the end of this earnings release.

(1) CBL defines NOI as property operating revenues
(rental revenues, tenant reimbursements and other income), less
property operating expenses (property operating, real estate taxes
and maintenance and repairs). Same-center NOI excludes lease
termination income, straight-line rent adjustments, and
amortization of above and below market lease intangibles.
Same-center NOI is for real estate properties and does not include
the results of operations of the Company’s subsidiary that
provides janitorial, security and maintenance services. We include
a property in our same-center pool when we own all or a portion of
the property as of March 31 2015, and we owned it and it was in
operation for both the entire preceding calendar year and the
current year-to-date reporting period ending March 31, 2015. New
properties are excluded from same-center NOI, until they meet this
criteria. The only properties excluded from the same-center pool
that would otherwise meet this criteria are non-core properties,
properties under major redevelopment, properties being considered
for repositioning and properties where we intend to renegotiate
the terms of the debt secured by the related property.
