Kimco Realty Corporation announces second quarter 2008 earnings
NEW HYDE PARK, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Kimco Realty Corporation (NYSE: KIM) reported results for the quarter ending June 30, 2008.
Net income available to common shareholders was $82.6 million for the second quarter of 2008 or $0.32 per diluted share compared to $125.1 million or $0.49 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2007. Comparable results were affected by an unusually high number of transactions that were completed by the company during the second quarter of 2007 as it capitalized on the liquidity in the real estate and capital markets during that period. These transactions included approximately $21 million in promoted income related to the sale of assets in the Kimco Realty Opportunity Fund (KROP), approximately $15 million from the sale of its preferred equity investment in a Canadian self-storage portfolio, $15.3 million from the sale of a Kimco Select mixed-use asset located at 625 Broadway in New York City and approximately $4 million from its investment in Albertsons. This was partially offset by an increase of approximately $25 million in recurring income primarily from Kimco's opportunity businesses in the second quarter of 2008. Year-to-date, net income per diluted share was $0.66 compared to $1.07 per diluted share for the same period in 2007.
Funds from operations (FFO), a widely accepted supplemental measure of REIT performance, were $171.1 million for the second quarter 2008 compared to $184.2 million in the same period a year ago. FFO per diluted share were $0.66 for the second quarter of 2008 compared to $0.71 in the second quarter of 2007. Year-to date, FFO per diluted share was $1.30 from $1.49 compared to the same period in 2007. A reconciliation of net income to FFO is provided in the attached tables.
Highlights for the second quarter 2008:
-- Announced 10.0 percent increase in common dividend;
-- Achieved growth in same-store net operating income for the
quarter of 2.4 percent;
-- Posted occupancy at the end of the second quarter of 95.7
percent in the shopping center portfolio;
-- Formed second joint venture with RioCan, Canada's largest
REIT;
-- Continued to expand its Latin American business with entrance
into Brazil and Peru;
-- Recognized $15.3 million in gains, net of tax, from Kimco
Developer's, Inc.;

preferred equity investments;
-- Maintained access to approximately $1.0 billion in immediate
liquidity.
Dividend Increase
As previously announced, Kimco's Board of Directors increased its quarterly common dividend to $0.44 per share. This increased rate will be effective with the October 2008 dividend payment. The dividend, which has grown every year since the company's IPO in 1991 at the compound average rate of 9.4 percent, is supported by cash flow from its shopping center operations.
Portfolio Activity
Kimco's shopping center portfolio includes 891 operating properties: 804 in the United States and Puerto Rico, 49 in Canada, 34 in Mexico and four in Chile as well as 55 development properties: 25 in the United States and 27 in Mexico and one each in Chile, Brazil and Peru. Same-store growth in net operating income in the U.S. portfolio was 2.4 percent for the quarter and has averaged 4.0 percent over the past eight quarters.
For the quarter, the company signed a total of 428 leases totaling 1.2 million square feet in its shopping center holdings: 229 new leases for 0.5 million square feet and 199 lease renewals for 0.7 million square feet. In the U.S. portfolio, Kimco signed 178 new leases for 443,000 square feet and 157 lease renewals for 666,000 square feet. On new leases signed for the same space in U.S., the average increase in contractual base rent was approximately 12.3 percent on a cash basis for the quarter; including renewals and options the average increase in contractual base rent was 10.5%.
Kimco acquired a total of 13 properties aggregating 1.5 million square feet for approximately $200.0 million during the quarter. In Canada, the company acquired a 50% interest in ten properties with RioCan for $153.4 million, including assumed debt of approximately $81.1 million. The weighted average occupancy of the portfolio at the time of purchase was 97.3% and the properties are anchored by national and regional tenants such as Wal-Mart, Zellers, Canadian Tire, Metro Inc., Shoppers Drug Mart, Best Buy and Price Chopper. The properties will be managed by RioCan. The company acquired one additional property in Mexico, a 107,000 square foot center located in Monterrey which was acquired as part of the company's current joint venture with American Industries.

In Mexico, Kimco acquired three land parcels for development. In a 60/40 joint venture with Frisa, Kimco will develop two shopping centers. Multiplaza Ojo de Agua is a 191,000 square foot shopping center anchored by Mexico's fourth largest grocery retailer, Chedraui, and a movie theater and is located in Ojo de Agua, a fast-growing area northeast of Mexico City. This project is expected to cost approximately US $18 million to develop. Also with Frisa, Kimco plans to develop Multiplaza Cancun, a 250,000 square foot grocery-anchored shopping center in the city of Cancun, Mexico, the country's most popular resort area located in the Yucatan Peninsula. This project will also be anchored by grocery retailer Chedraui as well as a theater. Total proposed development cost is US $18 million.
Kimco also acquired land to develop a 226,000 square foot HEB-anchored shopping center in Rio Bravo, three miles from the Texas-Mexico border. Kimco's development partner in this project is Planigrupo and the total expected development cost is approximately US $19 million.
The company also added two land parcels to its Mexico Land & Development Fund, a joint venture managed by Kimco, one in Torreon and the other in Mazatlan. Total invested in the Mexico Land & Development Fund to date is approximately US $44 million in five separate land parcels.
Kimco made its first investment in Brazil during the quarter, initiating a new 70/30 joint venture with REP, the leading local developer of neighborhood and community centers, to purchase an existing 76,200 square foot neighborhood center in Valinhos, Brazil anchored by a 45,000 SF Russi supermarket for approximately US $18.7 million. Valinhos is an affluent suburban community with a population of 92,000 located in the high-growth corridor south of Campinas and north of Sao Paulo, Brazil's largest city. The center will be immediately expanded to approximately 134,500 square feet. The 58,300 square foot expansion will be anchored by leading clothing and electronics retailers and a cinema and is expected to cost approximately $8.7 million to develop.
In Chile, Kimco has formed a new partnership with the country's leading grocery retailer, D&S, to acquire land for the development of a 275,000 SF shopping center in Vina del Mar anchored by LIDER (D&S' large supermarket format), and Homecenter Sodimac, a major home improvement chain owned by Falabella, one of Latin America's largest retail groups. The development will cost approximately US $60MM to complete.
Kimco has also initiated operations in Peru, entering into a 90/10 joint venture with Penta Realty, a local development company. The venture's first project is located in Lima, the country's largest city and capital. The center will be located in the affluent neighborhood of San Isidro, on Conquistadores Avenue, the city's main shopping corridor.

Kimco Developer's, Inc. (KDI)

The development, which was begun in 2002 is anchored by HEB and Cinemark and was approximately 96 percent occupied. In addition, KDI sold a 76,000 square foot shopping center anchored by Publix in Harpeth, Tennessee for an approximate gain of $1.6 million.

would be increased by $2,675 and $2,388 for the three months ended

six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
Pursuant to the definition of Funds from Operations ("FFO") adopted by
the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate
Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), FFO is calculated by adjusting net
income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains
from sales of depreciated property, plus depreciation and
amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships
and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and
joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.
Given the nature of the Company's business as a real estate owner and
operator, the Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as a
measure of its operational performance and FFO is a widely recognized
measure in the Company's industry. FFO does not represent cash
generated from operating activities determined in accordance with
GAAP, and should not be considered as an alternative to net cash
flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP),
as a measure of our liquidity, or as an indicator of our ability to
make cash distributions. In addition, the comparability of the
Company's FFO with the FFO reported by other REITs may be affected by
the differences that exist regarding certain accounting policies
relating to expenditures for repairs and other recurring items.

defaults, occupancy rates, foreign currency exchange rates (such as

insurance costs and numerous other factors. Not all of these factors
are determinable at this time and actual results may vary from the
projected results, and may be above or below the range indicated. The
above range represents management's estimate of results based upon
