Corporate Governance

On September 29, 2015, the Company held its annual meeting of stockholders at which all seven directors nominated for election were duly elected and qualified. The slate of directors included two new independent directors: David B. Henry, Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Kimco Realty Corporation, and Eugene A. Pinover, Of Counsel, Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP.

Management Commentary

Glenn J. Rufrano, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “The third quarter and early fourth quarter results have demonstrated that VEREIT continues to move forward.  This included the election of the reconstituted Board, solidifying our senior management team, reinstating the dividend and progress towards the implementation of our business plan. Most notably, we have completed $830 million of dispositions since the beginning of Q3 and nearly $1.2 billion for the year, which is the low end of our disposition guidance. Among those sales was a $204 million pool of Red Lobster properties, helping reduce tenant and sector portfolio exposure. We also entered into a strategic partnership with the buyer to jointly divest an additional $400 million of Red Lobster real estate in single- or multi-unit transactions. With these accomplishments, along with the overall performance of VEREIT, I am pleased with the progress we have made since April."

Revenue

Definitions

Descriptions of FFO, AFFO, EBITDA and Normalized EBITDA are provided below. Refer to pages 10 through 18 for reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure and the calculations of our Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, Net Debt to Normalized EBITDA Annualized Ratio, Net Debt Leverage Ratio and Unencumbered Asset Ratio.

Funds From Operations and Adjusted Funds From Operations

Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. ("NAREIT"), an industry trade group, has promulgated a measure known as funds from operations ("FFO"), which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental measure to reflect the operating performance of a REIT. The use of FFO, a non-GAAP supplemental financial performance measure, is recommended by the REIT industry as a supplemental performance measure. FFO is not equivalent to our net income or loss as determined under U.S. GAAP.

NAREIT defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding gains or losses from disposition of property, depreciation and amortization of real estate assets and impairment write-downs on real estate including the pro rata share of adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Our FFO calculation complies with NAREIT's policy described above.

In addition to FFO, we use Adjusted Funds From Operations ("AFFO") as a non-GAAP supplemental financial performance measure to evaluate the operating performance of the Company. AFFO, as defined by the Company, excludes from FFO non-routine items such as acquisition related costs, merger and other non-routine transactions costs, gains or losses on sale of investments, insurance and litigation settlements and extinguishment of debt cost. We also exclude certain non-cash items such as impairments of intangibles, straight-line rental revenue, unrealized gains or losses on derivatives, equity-based compensation and amortization of intangibles, deferred financing costs, above-market lease assets and below-market lease liabilities. Management believes that excluding these costs from FFO provides investors with supplemental performance information that is consistent with the performance models and analysis used by management, and provides investors a view of the performance of our portfolio over time. AFFO also allows for a comparison of the performance of our operations with other traded REITs that are not currently engaging in acquisitions and mergers, as well as a comparison of our performance with that of other traded REITs, as AFFO, or an equivalent measure, is routinely reported by traded REITs, and we believe often used by analysts and investors for comparison purposes.

For all of these reasons, we believe FFO and AFFO, in addition to net loss and cash flows from operating activities, as defined by GAAP, are helpful supplemental performance measures and useful in understanding the various ways in which our management evaluates the performance of the Company over time. However, not all REITs calculate FFO and AFFO the same way, so comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. FFO and AFFO should not be considered as alternatives to net loss or to cash flows from operating activities, and are not intended to be used as a liquidity measure indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs.

AFFO may provide investors with a view of our future performance and future dividend policy. However, because AFFO excludes items that are an important component in an analysis of the historical performance of a property, AFFO should not be construed as a historic performance measure. Neither the SEC, NAREIT, nor any other regulatory body has evaluated the acceptability of the exclusions contemplated to adjust FFO in order to calculate AFFO and its use as a non-GAAP financial performance measure.

EBITDA and Normalized EBITDA

Normalized EBITDA as disclosed represents EBITDA, or earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, modified to exclude non-routine items such as acquisition related costs, merger and other non-routine transactions costs, gains or losses on sale of investments, insurance and litigation settlements and extinguishment of debt cost. We also exclude certain non-cash items such as impairments of intangible assets, straight-line rental revenue, unrealized gains or losses on derivatives, write-off of program development costs, and amortization of intangibles, deferred financing costs, above-market lease assets and below-market lease liabilities. Management believes that excluding these costs from EBITDA provides investors with supplemental performance information that is consistent with the performance models and analysis used by management, and provides investors a view of the performance of our portfolio over time. The Company believes that Normalized EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure to investors and analysts for assessing the performance of the Company's business segments, although it does not represent net income that is computed in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, Normalized EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income or as an indicator of the Company's financial performance. The Company uses Normalized EBITDA as one measure of its operating performance when formulating corporate goals and evaluating the effectiveness of the Company's strategies. Normalized EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Generally, the words “expects,” “anticipates,” “targets,” “goals,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” variations of such words and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, and any statements regarding VEREIT’s future financial condition, results of operations and business are also forward-looking statements.

If a change occurs, VEREIT’s business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations may vary materially from those expressed in its forward-looking statements.

The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements: VEREIT’s plans, market and other expectations, objectives, intentions and other statements that are not historical facts; the developments disclosed herein; VEREIT’s ability to execute on and realize success from its business plan; the inability to successfully market restaurant properties in its partnership with GGC; the inability to pay the fourth quarter dividend with cash from operations; VEREIT’s ability to meet its 2015 guidance; the unpredictability of the business plans and financial condition of VEREIT’s tenants; the impact of impairment charges in respect of certain of VEREIT’s properties or other assets; the inability to retain or hire key personnel; and continuation or deterioration of current market conditions. Additional factors that may affect future results are contained in VEREIT’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which are available at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. VEREIT disclaims any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, new information, future events or other changes, except as required by law.
