NOTE 15                 SEGMENTS

 

We have three business segments which offer different products and services. Our three segments are managed separately because each requires different operating strategies or management expertise and are reflective of management’s operating philosophies and methods. In addition, our segments or assets within such segment could change in the future as development of certain properties commences or other operational or management changes occur. We do not distinguish or group our combined operations on a geographic basis.  Furthermore, all operations are within the United States and no customer or tenant comprises more than 10% of revenues. Our reportable segments are as follows:

 

·  Master Planned Communities (“MPCs”) — includes the development and sale of land in large-scale, long-term community development projects in and around Las Vegas, Nevada; Houston, Texas; and Columbia, Maryland.

 

·  Operating Assets — includes retail, office and industrial properties, a multi-family property, The Woodlands Resort & Conference Center and other real estate investments. These assets are currently generating revenues, and we believe there is an opportunity to redevelop or reposition many of these assets to improve operating performance.

 

·  Strategic Developments — includes all properties held for development or redevelopment which have no substantial operations.

 

The assets included in each segment as of June 30, 2014, are contained in the following chart:

As our segments are managed separately, different operating measures are utilized to assess operating results and allocate resources among the segments. The one common operating measure used to assess operating results for the business segments is Real Estate Property Earnings Before Taxes (“REP EBT”), which represents the operating revenues of the properties less property operating expenses and adjustments for interest, as further described below. We believe REP EBT provides useful information about the operating performance for all of our properties.

 

REP EBT, as it relates to our business, is defined as net income (loss) excluding general and administrative expenses, other income, corporate interest income, corporate interest and depreciation expense, provision for income taxes, warrant liability loss and the reduction in tax indemnity receivable. We present REP EBT because we use this measure, among others, internally to assess the operating performance of our assets. We also present this measure because we believe certain investors use it as a measure of a company’s historical operating performance and its ability to service and incur debt. We believe that the inclusion of certain adjustments to net income (loss) to calculate REP EBT is appropriate to provide additional information to investors.

(a)  Certain assets included in our Operating Assets segment are in various stages of redevelopment and are included in Developments on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

(b)  Assets included in Corporate and other consist primarily of Cash and cash equivalents and the Tax Indemnity receivable, including accrued interest.

 

A portion of the tax indemnification asset in the amount of $185.7 million was incorrectly included in the Operating Assets segment at December 31, 2013 rather than the Corporate segment. The amounts in the table above at December 31, 2013 have been corrected to appropriately include the entire tax indemnification asset of $320.5 million in the Corporate segment.

 

The increase in the Strategic Developments segment’s asset balance as of June 30, 2014 of $445.5 million compared to December 31, 2013 is primarily due to $103.2 million of deposits collected on the sale of condominium units for both our market rate towers at Ward Village, $20.6 million in buildings and equipment from the completion of the transformation of the IBM building at Ward Village into an information center and sales gallery and development and other costs of $151.3 million for Downtown Summerlin, $25.1 million for Hughes Landing multi-family, $17.2 million for Ward Village, $32.0 million for the ExxonMobil office buildings, $12.4 million for Hughes Landing retail, $27.1 million for various projects under construction at The Woodlands, $9.7 million in purchase deposits for a land parcel near the Seaport and $14.3 million increase in the carrying value of our investment in the ONE Ala Moana project.

 

The decrease in the Corporate segment’s asset balance as of June 30, 2014 of $207.6 million compared to December 31, 2013 is primarily due to cash used to fund development activities.
