WAKEFIELD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Franklin Street Properties Corp. (the “Company”, “FSP”, “we” or “our”) (NYSE American: FSP), a real estate investment trust (REIT), announced its results for the fourth quarter and the year ended December 31, 2022.

George J. Carter, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented as follows:

“As the first quarter of 2023 begins, we continue to believe that the current price of our common stock does not accurately reflect the value of our underlying real estate assets. We will seek to increase shareholder value by (1) pursuing the sale of select properties where we believe that short to intermediate term valuation potential has been reached and (2) striving to lease vacant space. We intend to use proceeds from property dispositions primarily for debt reduction.

We look forward to 2023 and beyond with anticipation and optimism.”

Financial Highlights

• GAAP net loss was $2.9 million or $0.03 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and GAAP net income was $1.1 million or $0.01 per basic and diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2022.
• Funds From Operations (FFO) was $10.5 million and $41.3 million, or $0.10 and $0.40 per basic and diluted share, for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022, respectively.
• Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO) was a loss of $0.08 and $0.21 per basic and diluted share for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022, respectively.
• During the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022, we repaid approximately $27 million and $137 million of debt, respectively, including $110 million on September 6, 2022 as repayment in full of a former term loan.
• Subsequent to quarter end, on February 10, 2023, we entered into an amendment to the credit agreement evidencing our $165 million term loan. On February 10, 2023, as part of the amendment to credit agreement, we repaid a $40 million portion of this term loan, so that $125 million remains outstanding. In addition, on or before April 1, 2024, we are required to repay an additional $25 million of the term loan. The amendment, among other items, extended the maturity date from January 31, 2024 to October 1, 2024, changed the interest rate from a number of basis points over LIBOR depending on our credit rating to 300 basis points over SOFR, and made certain changes to conditions and covenants.
• Subsequent to quarter end, on February 10, 2023, we entered into an amendment to our revolving line of credit agreement. The amendment, among other items, extended the maturity date from January 12, 2024 to October 1, 2024, reduced availability from $237.5 million to $150 million, with further reductions to $125 million effective October 1, 2023 and to $100 million effective April 1, 2024, changed the interest rate from a number of basis points over SOFR depending on our credit rating to 300 basis points over SOFR, and made certain changes to conditions and covenants.

Leasing Highlights

• During the year ended December 31, 2022, we leased approximately 435,000 square feet, including 275,000 square feet of new leases.
• Our directly owned real estate portfolio of 21 owned properties, totaling approximately 6.2 million square feet, was approximately 75.6% leased as of December 31, 2022, compared to approximately 78.4% leased as of December 31, 2021. The decrease in the leased percentage is primarily a result of lease expirations during the year ended December 31, 2022 and property dispositions.
• The weighted average GAAP base rent per square foot achieved on leasing activity during the year ended December 31, 2022 was $33.27, or 10.6% higher than average rents in the respective properties as applicable compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. The average lease term on leases signed during the year ended December 31, 2022 was 6.4 years compared to 7.7 years during the year ended December 31, 2021. Overall the portfolio weighted average rent per occupied square foot was $30.48 as of December 31, 2022 compared to $30.60 as of December 31, 2021.
• Subsequent to quarter end, we are currently tracking approximately 500,000 square feet of new prospective tenants, including approximately 300,000 square feet of prospective tenants that have identified FSP assets on their respective short lists of potential locations.
• We believe that our continuing portfolio of real estate is well located, primarily in the Sunbelt and Mountain West geographic regions, and consists of high-quality assets with upside leasing potential in a post-COVID-19 environment.

Investment Highlights

• On December 28, 2022, FSP completed the sale of 909 Davis in Evanston, Illinois for approximately $27.8 million in gross proceeds and recorded a gain of approximately $3.9 million.
• During 2022, we closed on dispositions that resulted in approximately $130.3 million total aggregate gross proceeds and we repaid approximately $137 million in debt.
• We remain committed to selling select properties during 2023 and using proceeds primarily for debt reduction.
• At this time, due primarily to economic conditions and uncertainty surrounding the timing and amount of proceeds received from property dispositions, we are suspending property disposition guidance.
• We will continue to provide quarterly updates on any disposition activity.

Stock Repurchases

• During the first quarter of 2022, we repurchased approximately 847,000 shares of our common stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $4.8 million. We did not repurchase any shares of our common stock during the remainder of 2022.
• Subsequent to quarter end, on February 10, 2023, we disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K that our Board of Directors discontinued its previous authorization to repurchase up to $50 million of our common stock from time to time in the open market, privately negotiated transactions or other manners as permitted by federal securities laws. We intend to use proceeds from property dispositions primarily for debt reduction.

Dividends

• On January 13, 2023, we announced that our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend for the three months ended December 31, 2022 of $0.01 per share of common stock that will be paid on February 16, 2023 to stockholders of record on January 27, 2023.

Reconciliation and Definitions of Funds From Operations (“FFO”) and
Adjusted Funds From Operations (“AFFO”)

A reconciliation of Net income to FFO and AFFO is shown below and a definition of FFO and AFFO is provided on Supplementary Schedule I. Management believes FFO and AFFO are used broadly throughout the real estate investment trust (REIT) industry as measurements of performance. The Company has included the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT) FFO definition as of May 17, 2016 in the table and notes that other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently. The Company’s computation of FFO and AFFO may not be comparable to FFO or AFFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that define FFO or AFFO differently.

Funds From Operations (“FFO”)

The Company evaluates performance based on Funds From Operations, which we refer to as FFO, as management believes that FFO represents the most accurate measure of activity and is the basis for distributions paid to equity holders. The Company defines FFO as net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, hedge ineffectiveness, acquisition costs of newly acquired properties that are not capitalized and lease acquisition costs that are not capitalized plus depreciation and amortization, including amortization of acquired above and below market lease intangibles and impairment charges on mortgage loans, properties or investments in non-consolidated REITs, and after adjustments to exclude equity in income or losses from, and, to include the proportionate share of FFO from, non-consolidated REITs. We exclude the FFO from any Sponsored REIT that is consolidated from the calculation of FFO.

FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income or loss (determined in accordance with GAAP), nor as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance, nor as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP), nor as a measure of the Company’s liquidity, nor is it necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of the Company’s needs.

Other real estate companies and the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, may define this term in a different manner. We have included the NAREIT FFO as of May 17, 2016 in the table and note that other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do.

We believe that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of the results of the Company, FFO should be examined in connection with net income or loss and cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities in the consolidated financial statements.

Adjusted Funds From Operations (“AFFO”)

The Company also evaluates performance based on Adjusted Funds From Operations, which we refer to as AFFO. The Company defines AFFO as (1) FFO, (2) excluding loss on extinguishment of debt that is non-cash, (3) excluding our proportionate share of FFO and including distributions received, from non-consolidated REITs, (4) excluding the effect of straight-line rent, (5) plus the amortization of deferred financing costs, (6) plus the value of shares issued as compensation and (7) less recurring capital expenditures that are generally for maintenance of properties, which we call non-investment capex or are second generation capital expenditures. Second generation costs include re-tenanting space after a tenant vacates, which include tenant improvements and leasing commissions.

We exclude development/redevelopment activities, capital expenditures planned at acquisition and costs to reposition a property. We also exclude first generation leasing costs, which are generally to fill vacant space in properties we acquire or were planned for at acquisition.

AFFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income or loss (determined in accordance with GAAP), nor as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance, nor as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP), nor as a measure of the Company’s liquidity, nor is it necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of the Company’s needs. Other real estate companies may define this term in a different manner. We believe that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of the results of the Company, AFFO should be examined in connection with net income or loss and cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities in the consolidated financial statements.

Reconciliation and Definition of Sequential Same Store results to property Net Operating Income (NOI) and Net Income

Net Operating Income (“NOI”)

The Company provides property performance based on Net Operating Income, which we refer to as NOI. Management believes that investors are interested in this information. NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company defines as net income or loss (the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) plus general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, including amortization of acquired above and below market lease intangibles and impairment charges, interest expense, less equity in earnings of nonconsolidated REITs, interest income, management fee income, hedge ineffectiveness, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, gains or losses on the sale of assets and excludes non-property specific income and expenses. We exclude the NOI from any Sponsored REIT that is consolidated from the calculation of NOI. The information presented includes footnotes and the data is shown by region with properties owned in the periods presented, which we call Sequential Same Store. The comparative Sequential Same Store results include properties held for the periods presented and exclude our redevelopment properties. We also exclude properties that have been placed in service, but that do not have operating activity for all periods presented, dispositions and significant nonrecurring income such as bankruptcy settlements and lease termination fees. NOI, as defined by the Company, may not be comparable to NOI reported by other REITs that define NOI differently. NOI should not be considered an alternative to net income or loss as an indication of our performance or to cash flows as a measure of the Company’s liquidity or its ability to make distributions. The calculations of NOI and Sequential Same Store are shown in the following table:

(b) Nonrecurring Items in NOI include proceeds from bankruptcies, lease termination fees or other significant nonrecurring income or expenses, which may affect comparability.

*Excludes NOI from investments in and interest income from secured loans to non-consolidated REITs.
