Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2010

Financial Results

Los Angeles, CA, August 9, 2010 – Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE: HPP) today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2010.

Financial Results

For the second quarter of 2010, the Company reported a net loss of $2.8 million, compared to a net loss of $0.1 million a year ago. Net loss for the first six months of 2010 was $2.2 million, compared to net income of $0.1 million in the first six months of the prior year.

Second quarter 2010 results include a one-time, $2.4 million expense for transaction costs related to the Company’s initial public offering on June 23, 2010.

“The second quarter was a milestone period for Hudson Pacific, as we took the Company public on June 23, raising more than $270 million in gross proceeds,” said Mr. Victor J. Coleman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. “This new capital will enable us to acquire new properties and take advantage of the prime opportunities to which we have access while retaining our low leverage levels.”

Combined Operating Results For The Three Months Ended June 30, 2010

Total revenue during the quarter increased 2.4% to $11.1 million from $10.8 million a year ago. The increase in total revenue was attributed to a $0.6 million increase in rental revenue to $8.2 million, which was partially offset by a $0.4 million decrease in other property-related revenue to $1.9 million.

Total operating expenses increased 6.0% to $9.3 million from $8.8 million a year ago. The increase in total operating expenses was primarily the result of a $0.2 million increase in office operating expenses and a $0.3 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense.

Income from operations was $1.8 million, compared to income from operations of $2.0 million a year ago.

Interest expense during the second quarter remained relatively flat compared to the same period of 2009.

Acquisition-related expense during the second quarter was $2.4 million, with no comparable expense for the same period a year ago. The increase was due to one-time transaction costs relating to the Company’s acquisition of properties in connection with its IPO and related formation transactions.

Segment Operating Results For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2010

Office Properties

Total revenue at the Company’s office properties increased 23.0% to $3.7 million from $3.0 million in the second quarter of 2009. The increase was primarily the result of a $0.7 million increase in rental revenue to $3.3 million, which was largely attributable to improved occupancy.


Office property operating expenses increased 10.4% to $1.6 million from $1.5 million a year ago.

At June 30, 2010, the Company’s office portfolio was 85.9% leased and 80.2% occupied. During the quarter, the Company signed five new and renewal leases totaling 11,086 square feet.

Media and Entertainment Properties

Total revenue at the Company’s media and entertainment properties decreased 5.7% to $7.3 million from $7.8 million in the second quarter of 2009. The decline was primarily the result of a $0.4 million decrease in other property-related revenue.

Total media and entertainment expenses remained relatively flat compared to the same period a year ago.

At June 30, 2010, the Company’s media and entertainment portfolio was 67.1% leased.

Combined Operating Results For The Six Months Ended June 30, 2010

For the first six months of 2010, total revenue was $22.1 million, a decrease of 1.3% from $22.4 million in the same period the prior year. Total operating expenses remained relatively flat compared to the same period a year ago. As a result, income from operations was $4.3 million, compared to income from operations of $4.6 million during the first six months of 2009. Acquisition-related expense during the first six months of 2010 was $2.4 million, with no comparable expense for the same period a year ago. The increase was due to one-time transaction costs relating to the Company’s acquisition of properties in connection with its IPO and related formation transactions. Interest expense during the first six months of 2010 was relatively flat compared to the same period of 2009.

Balance Sheet

At June 30, 2010, the Company had total real estate assets of $487.9 million, in addition to cash and cash equivalents of $84.5 million. At June 30, 2010, the Company had availability of approximately $77.0 million on its undrawn, $200 million secured credit facility.

Initial Public Offering

On June 29, 2010, the Company completed an initial public offering and concurrent private placement at $17.00 per share of common stock. Including the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option, the Company generated $270.2 million in total gross proceeds. Of the total, $217.6 million was from the public offering of common stock, $32.6 million was from the exercise of the over-allotment option and $20.0 million was from a private placement investment by Victor J. Coleman, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and certain investment funds affiliated with Farallon Capital Management, L.L.C.
