Insights

The reported increase in quarterly revenues by Clipper Realty Inc. and the record adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) are positive indicators of the company's operational performance. The growth in residential revenue, driven by higher rental rates, suggests a robust demand in the New York metropolitan real estate market. However, the net loss reported, despite the revenue increase, raises concerns about the company's cost management and the impact of non-operational factors such as depreciation and interest expense.

The stability of the dividend at $0.095 per share reflects management's confidence in the company's cash flow and financial health, despite the net loss. This could be reassuring to investors seeking income stability. The balance sheet's increase in notes payable, primarily due to new financing and development draws, indicates an aggressive growth strategy, which could lead to higher revenues in the long term but may also increase financial leverage and associated risks.

The strategic developments mentioned by Clipper Realty, such as the Dean Street new development and the Article 11 transaction at Flatbush Gardens, indicate a proactive approach to capitalizing on New York City's housing market. The mention of renewing leases at a 7% increase and nearly 6% for renewals is a testament to the strength of the market and the company's asset quality. Nevertheless, the early termination of the NYC lease at 250 Livingston Street introduces a potential vacancy risk that could affect short-term earnings.

Clipper Realty's engagement with New York City housing agencies to enhance rental recoveries under Section 610, while undertaking capital improvements, is a strategic move to optimize revenue from regulated properties. However, it is essential to monitor the execution of these capital improvements and the associated recovery of enhanced rentals to assess the long-term impact on the company's financials.

The completion of the Dean Street building superstructure ahead of schedule is an encouraging sign of the company's efficiency in project management. This early completion could lead to cost savings and earlier revenue generation from the 2025 leasing season. It is important to consider the risks associated with new developments, such as construction delays or cost overruns, which could offset the current progress.

The termination of the lease by NYC at 250 Livingston Street presents a challenge but also an opportunity for redevelopment or re-leasing to potentially higher-paying tenants. The company's active pursuit of opportunities at this location will be critical in mitigating the short-term impact of the lease termination on revenues.

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Clipper Realty Inc. (NYSE: CLPR) (the “Company”), a leading owner and operator of multifamily residential and commercial properties in the New York metropolitan area, today announced financial and operating results for the three months ended December 31, 2023.

Highlights for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2023

  • Quarterly revenues of $34.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2023
  • Quarterly income from operations of $9.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2023
  • Net operating income (“NOI”)1 of $20.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2023
  • Quarterly net loss of $2.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2023
  • Record adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”)1 of $6.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2023
  • Declared a dividend of $0.095 per share for the fourth quarter of 2023

David Bistricer, Co-Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer, commented,

“The fourth quarter of 2023 for the Company has continued to produce solid results after recent record-breaking quarters, with AFFO continuing to increase. We continue to have high occupancy and rents in our buildings with good renter demand for our product. For all our properties, new leases continue to rent at more than 7% over previous rents and renewals at almost 6%. At our Dean Street new development, we have completed the building superstructure ahead of schedule, and are working to an on-time completion next year to capture the 2025 leasing season. At Flatbush Gardens, under the new Article 11 transaction, we continue to make progress in working with various New York City housing agencies to collect enhanced rental recoveries under Section 610 as we undertake the committed capital improvements. At our 250 Livingston St property, we recently announced that NYC will exercise their option to terminate their lease in late August 2025 as they had previously said they might do. While we believe re-leasing the 250 Livingston Street space is a challenge in the short term, and, indeed, we are actively pursuing opportunities at the moment, we believe the benefits we will get from Flatbush Gardens, the 1010 Pacific Street development now completed, the Dean Street development once completed, and our other buildings set us up for strong performance in the future.”

Financial Results for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2023

For the fourth quarter of 2023, revenues increased by $1.9 million, or 5.6%, to $34.9 million and $0.7 million, or 2.1% excluding revenue from Pacific House. This compares to revenue of $33.0 million during the fourth quarter of 2022. Residential revenue increased by $2.1 million, or 9.3%, and $1.0 million, or 4.2%, excluding revenue from Pacific House in the fourth quarter of 2023; driven by higher rental rates at all our residential properties. Commercial income decreased $0.3 million, or 3.0%, in the fourth quarter of 2023 due to a small number of commercial leases that expired during 2023.

For the fourth quarter of 2023, net loss was $2.9 million, or $0.09 per share or $1.8 million, or $0.06 per share excluding the net loss attributable to Pacific House operations, compared to net loss of $3.4 million, or $0.10 per share, for the fourth quarter of 2022. The adjusted change was primarily attributable to increased rental revenue discussed above and lower real estate taxes due to the Flatbush Gardens Article 11 transaction entered at the end of the second quarter, net of higher insurance, depreciation and interest expense.

For the fourth quarter of 2023, AFFO was $6.3 million, or $0.15 per share, or $6.6 million or $0.16 per share excluding the impact of Pacific House, compared to $4.7 million, or $0.11 per share, for the fourth quarter of 2022. The adjusted change was primarily attributable to increased rental revenue discussed above and lower real estate taxes due to the Flatbush Gardens Article 11 transaction entered at the end of the second quarter, net of higher insurance and interest expense.

__________
1 NOI and AFFO are non-GAAP financial measures. For a definition of these financial measures and a reconciliation of such measures to the most comparable GAAP measures, see “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures” at the end of this release.

Balance Sheet

At December 31, 2023, notes payable (excluding unamortized loan costs) was $1,219.0 million, compared to $1,171.2 million at December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to the permanent financing on the Pacific House loan entered in 2023 and draws made on Dean Street development in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Dividend

The Company today declared a fourth quarter dividend of $0.095 per share, the same amount as last quarter, to shareholders of record on March 27, 2024, payable April 4, 2024.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures

(In thousands, except per share data)

(Unaudited)

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We disclose and discuss funds from operations (“FFO”), adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”), adjusted earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) and net operating income (“NOI”), all of which meet the definition of “non-GAAP financial measures” set forth in Item 10(e) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC.

While management and the investment community in general believe that presentation of these measures provides useful information to investors, neither FFO, AFFO, Adjusted EBITDA, nor NOI should be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or income from operations as an indication of our performance. We believe that to understand our performance further, FFO, AFFO, Adjusted EBITDA, and NOI should be compared with our reported net income (loss) or income from operations and considered in addition to cash flows computed in accordance with GAAP, as presented in our consolidated financial statements.

Funds From Operations and Adjusted Funds From Operations
FFO is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property and impairment adjustments, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Our calculation of FFO is consistent with FFO as defined by NAREIT.

AFFO is defined by us as FFO excluding amortization of identifiable intangibles incurred in property acquisitions, straight-line rent adjustments to revenue from long-term leases, amortization costs incurred in originating debt, interest rate cap mark-to-market adjustments, amortization of non-cash equity compensation, acquisition and other costs, transaction pursuit costs, loss on modification/extinguishment of debt, gain on involuntary conversion, gain on termination of lease and non-recurring litigation-related expenses, less recurring capital spending.

Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. In fact, real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions. FFO is intended to be a standard supplemental measure of operating performance that excludes historical cost depreciation and valuation adjustments from net income. We consider FFO useful in evaluating potential property acquisitions and measuring operating performance. We further consider AFFO useful in determining funds available for payment of distributions. Neither FFO nor AFFO represent net income or cash flows from operations computed in accordance with GAAP. You should not consider FFO and AFFO to be alternatives to net income (loss) as reliable measures of our operating performance; nor should you consider FFO and AFFO to be alternatives to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities (computed in accordance with GAAP) as measures of liquidity.

Neither FFO nor AFFO measure whether cash flow is sufficient to fund all of our cash needs, including loan principal amortization, capital improvements and distributions to stockholders. FFO and AFFO do not represent cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities computed in accordance with GAAP. Further, FFO and AFFO as disclosed by other REITs might not be comparable to our calculations of FFO and AFFO.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of FFO and AFFO for the periods presented to net loss, computed in accordance with GAAP (amounts in thousands):

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization
We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure of our operating performance. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before allocation to non-controlling interests, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, amortization of identifiable intangibles, straight-line rent adjustments to revenue from long-term leases, amortization of non-cash equity compensation, interest expense (net), acquisition and other costs, transaction pursuit costs, loss on modification/extinguishment of debt and non-recurring litigation-related expenses, less gain on involuntary conversion and gain on termination of lease.

We believe that this measure provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP income from operations or net income (loss). We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be a meaningful financial measure of our core operating performance.

However, Adjusted EBITDA should only be used as an alternative measure of our financial performance. Further, other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating Adjusted EBITDA, and accordingly, our Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to that of other REITs.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented to net loss, computed in accordance with GAAP (amounts in thousands):

Net Operating Income
We believe that NOI is a useful measure of our operating performance. We define NOI as income from operations plus real estate depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, acquisition and other costs, transaction pursuit costs, amortization of identifiable intangibles and straight-line rent adjustments to revenue from long-term leases, less gain on termination of lease. We believe that this measure is widely recognized and provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP income from operations or net income (loss). We use NOI to evaluate our performance because NOI allows us to evaluate the operating performance of our company by measuring the core operations of property performance and capturing trends in rental housing and property operating expenses. NOI is also a widely used metric in valuation of properties.

However, NOI should only be used as an alternative measure of our financial performance. Further, other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of NOI for the periods presented to income from operations, computed in accordance with GAAP (amounts in thousands):
