Operating Highlights

As of September 30, 2012, occupancy for the company's consolidated core portfolio was 91.9% as compared to 91.8% at June 30, 2012 and 90.6% as of September 30, 2011. On a same property basis, occupancy remained flat at 91.8% as compared to June 30, 2012 and increased 20 basis points as compared to September 30, 2011.
 
Same property net operating income increased 3.6% for the third quarter of 2012 as compared to the third quarter of 2011 and increased 3.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the comparable period of 2011. These increases were primarily attributable to increases in minimum rental income and recovery income as well as a decrease in bad debt expense.

During the third quarter of 2012, the company executed 111 new leases, renewals, and options totaling 268,652 square feet at an average rent spread of 9.5%. This included 60 new leases in the core portfolio totaling 107,946 square feet at an average rental rate of $20.72 per square foot, representing a 7.0% increase from prior rents on a same space, cash basis. Excluding spaces that were vacant for more than one year, the average rental rate on new leases increased by 14.2%. The company renewed 51 leases in its core portfolio for 160,706 square feet at an average rental rate of $20.15 per square foot, representing an 11.3% increase to prior rents on a same space, cash basis.
Development and Redevelopment Activities
At September 30, 2012, the company had approximately $264.2 million of active development and redevelopment projects underway. The company's largest development project, The Gallery at Westbury Plaza, opened in August. Retailers that have commenced operations include Saks Fifth Avenue OFF 5TH, Nordstrom Rack, Bloomingdale's Outlet, Trader Joe's, The Container Store, SA Elite, Verizon and Ulta. The company expects Old Navy and Shake Shack to open in the fourth quarter of this year. Leases have recently been signed with Gap Outlet, Banana Republic Outlet, GNC, Bank of America, Noodles, Ruby & Jenna, Red Mango, and Lane Bryant.
During the third quarter, the company received approval from Daly City, California for the construction of a two story, 83,000 square foot Dick's Sporting Goods at Serramonte Mall. Total costs are estimated to be approximately $18 million for this first phase of our expansion of Serramonte. Construction is expected to begin during the first quarter of 2013 and should be completed by the first quarter of 2014.
The company has commenced pre-development plans for its site in the Bronx, New York on 230th Street and Broadway. The site is directly off the Major Deegan Expressway and is one block from the 231st Street subway station. The area is heavily populated with over 850,000 people living within a three mile radius. The development plan anticipates constructing 133,000 square feet of big box retail on two levels with an initial project budget of approximately $55 million, including the cost of the land. The company anticipates the project will open in late 2014.
The company has ten additional projects under redevelopment at an expected cost of $43.1 million. These projects include expansions and new anchor re-tenanting with retailers such as LA Fitness, Publix, CVS Pharmacy, Marshalls, Academy Sports, and Burlington Coat Factory.

Acquisition and Disposition Activity
During the quarter, the company acquired Clocktower Plaza, a 78,820 square foot shopping center located in Queens, New York, for $56 million. It is anchored by a high volume Pathmark grocery store and is 100% leased. The property is situated on seven acres of land with excess parking which is expected to provide development and expansion opportunities in the future. The company also acquired Darinor Plaza, a 152,025 square foot shopping center located on The Post Road in Norwalk, Connecticut, for $36.0 million, including the assumption of $18.8 million of mortgage debt. Darinor Plaza is anchored by Kohl's, Old Navy and Party City and is 100% leased.






Subsequent to quarter end, the company acquired an 18,474 square foot urban retail condominium located on Second Avenue, between 64th and 65th Street, in New York City for $27.5 million. The property has four tenants including a CVS Pharmacy and a 7-Eleven, and includes retail frontage covering an entire city block.

Additionally, the company entered into a contract to acquire Westwood Complex, a 22-acre property located in Bethesda, Maryland, with significant opportunities for retail redevelopment and expansion. The site consists of 214,767 square feet of retail space, a 211,020 square foot apartment building and a 62-unit assisted living facility. The main retail center, within the Westwood Complex, has been anchored by a high volume Giant Food since the center opened in 1959. The Giant lease expires in 2019 with no term remaining. The apartment building is leased to a division of Montgomery County, MD and is subject to a purchase right in 2017 which is expected to be exercised. The assisted living facility is leased to Manor Care Health Services through 2015 with no term remaining. The transaction is initially structured as a $95.0 million mortgage loan, which has been funded and currently bears interest at 5.0%, and will be completed with an outright purchase of the property for $140.0 million with an anticipated closing prior to January 2014.

The company currently has 26 non-core properties with an approximate value of $215 million in the market for which it is gathering bids from prospective buyers. Although the company has not committed to a disposition plan, it may consider disposing of such properties if pricing is deemed to be favorable.
Investing and Financing Activities

During the quarter, the company completed an underwritten public offering and concurrent private placement totaling 4.1 million shares of its common stock (including the exercise of the overallotment option exercised by the underwriter) at a price of $21.20 per share. The offerings generated net proceeds to the company of approximately $85.6 million.

During the quarter, the company increased its unsecured seven year term loan by $50 million through the exercise of the accordion feature. The term loan bears interest at the annual rate of LIBOR plus 190 basis points subject to a pricing grid for changes in the company's credit ratings. The company also entered into an interest rate swap to convert the $50 million term loan's LIBOR rate to a fixed interest rate, providing the company an effective fixed interest rate of 3.0% per annum for this portion of the loan based on the company's current credit ratings.

Subsequent to quarter end, the company issued $300 million principal amount of 3.75% senior unsecured notes due November 15, 2022. The notes were offered to investors at a price of 99.591% with a yield to maturity of 3.799%, representing a spread at the time of pricing of 2.0% to the August 15, 2022 Treasury note. The company intends to use the net proceeds of the offering to redeem the company's $250 million principal amount 6.25% senior notes due 2014, including the make whole premium thereon and which have been called for redemption on November 24, 2012. After issuing the new $300 million unsecured notes and redeeming the $250 million unsecured notes, the weighted average term to maturity of the company's total debt will increase from 4.3 years to 5.8 years.

Balance Sheet Highlights
At September 30, 2012, the company's total market capitalization (including debt and equity) was $4.2 billion, comprising 128.8 million shares of common stock outstanding (on a fully diluted basis) valued at approximately $2.7 billion and approximately $1.4 billion of debt (excluding any debt premium/discount). The company's ratio of net debt to total market capitalization was 34.0%. In addition, at September 30, 2012, the company had approximately $28.9 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand (including cash in escrow and restricted cash) and $62.0 million drawn on its revolving credit facilities.
FFO and Earnings Guidance

The company updated and raised its guidance for 2012, estimating that Recurring FFO per diluted share will be $1.11 to $1.13 per diluted share as compared to its previous guidance of $1.08 to $1.12 per diluted share. Recurring FFO excludes debt extinguishment gains/losses, land sale gains, impairment charges, transaction costs and certain other income or charges reflected in the table below. The updated guidance reflects operating results achieved during the first nine months of the year which have slightly exceeded previous expectations.

ACCOUNTING AND OTHER DISCLOSURES

We believe FFO (combined with the primary GAAP presentations) is a useful, supplemental measure of our operating performance that is a recognized metric used extensively by the real estate industry, particularly REITs. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) stated in its April 2002 White Paper on Funds from Operations, “Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors have considered presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves.” We also believe that Recurring FFO is a useful measure of our core operating performance that facilitates comparability of historical financial periods.
FFO, as defined by NAREIT, is “net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of, or impairment charges related to, depreciable operating properties, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.” NAREIT states further that “adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis.” We believe that financial analysts, investors and stockholders are better served by the presentation of comparable period operating results generated from our FFO measure. Our method of calculating FFO may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. In October 2011, NAREIT clarified that FFO should exclude the impact of impairment losses on depreciable operating properties, either wholly-owned or in joint ventures. The company has calculated FFO for all periods presented in accordance with this clarification.
FFO and Recurring FFO are presented to assist investors in analyzing our operating performance. Neither FFO nor Recurring FFO (i) represents cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP, (ii) is indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs, including the ability to make distributions, (iii) is an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity, or (iv) should be considered as an alternative to net income (which is determined in accordance with GAAP) for purposes of evaluating our operating performance. We believe net income is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to FFO and Recurring FFO.

Certain matters discussed by Equity One in this press release constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Although Equity One believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that these expectations will be achieved.

EQUITY ONE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Equity One to Funds from Operations (FFO) and to Recurring FFO
The following table reflects the reconciliation of FFO and Recurring FFO to net income (loss) attributable to Equity One, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, for the periods presented. In October 2011, NAREIT clarified that FFO should exclude the impact of impairment losses on depreciable operating properties, either wholly-owned or in joint ventures. The company has calculated FFO for all periods presented in accordance with this clarification.

Includes net effect of: (a) distributions paid with respect to unissued shares held by a noncontrolling interest which have already been included for purposes of calculating earnings per diluted share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011; and (b) an adjustment to compensate for the rounding of the individual calculations.

Includes amounts classified as discontinued operations.
Funds from operations and Recurring FFO are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that FFO, as defined by NAREIT, is a widely used and appropriate supplemental measure of operating performance for REITs, and that it provides a relevant basis for comparison among REITs. We believe that Recurring FFO provides additional comparability between historical financial periods.

(2) 
Weighted average diluted shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 are higher than GAAP diluted weighted average shares as a result of the 11.4 million joint venture units held by Liberty International Holdings, Ltd. which are convertible into our common stock. These convertible units are not included in the diluted weighted average share count for GAAP purposes because their inclusion is anti-dilutive.
