Mr. Landy stated, “Our business model of investing in net-leased industrial properties on long-term leases to investment grade tenants continued to deliver solid performance. Core FFO, excluding lease termination income, for the full fiscal year 2013 was $26.7 million versus $23.6 million in 2012. On a per share basis, Core FFO excluding lease termination income was $0.63 per diluted share in fiscal 2013 compared to $0.59 per diluted share in 2012, representing a 7% increase. During fiscal 2013, we successfully re-leased 10 of the 11 expiring leases as well as obtained 2 new leases for buildings that were previously vacant representing a total of 1,002,000 square feet of leasing activity. 10 of these new leases containing a total of 837,000 square feet were renewals with existing tenants. This represents an overall 93% tenant retention rate. Our occupancy rate increased 80 basis points over the year and is now at 96%.”
“In addition to the 1.1 million square feet representing $63.8 million in acquisitions in fiscal 2013, Monmouth has recently added 5 Class A industrial properties containing a total of 1.1 million square feet. These new built-to-suit properties were acquired at an aggregate cost of $73.9 million. This brings our total portfolio to 81 properties and 10.7 million square feet. In view of the significant positive investment spread associated with these transactions, we expect that they will be very accretive to our earnings going into 2014.”
“While the strong automotive, housing, and manufacturing sectors have all helped drive demand for industrial space, the biggest factor continues to be the rise in e-commerce. The growth in internet sales are far outpacing the growth in brick and mortar sales and it is the primary reason that we view the long-term prospects for the industrial property type, and especially Monmouth’s portfolio very favorably. Our major tenant, FedEx, has recently asked us to expand 5 buildings totaling 275,000 square feet.”
“With regards to our future acquisition pipeline, we have entered into agreements to purchase three new built-to-suit industrial buildings totaling 690,000 square feet that are currently being developed. The total purchase price for these properties is approximately $48.8 million. The Company remains very focused on continuing to deliver positive results, and we look forward to building upon the substantial growth that was achieved in fiscal 2013.”

Notes:
(1) Non-US GAAP Information: FFO is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") as net income applicable to common shareholders, excluding gains or losses from sales of depreciable assets, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization. We define Core FFO as FFO plus acquisition costs. We define AFFO as Core FFO excluding gains or losses on securities transactions, stock based compensation expense, amortization of deferred financing and deferred leasing costs, recurring capital expenditures and straight-line rent adjustments. We define NOI as recurring rental and reimbursement revenues less real estate and other operating expenses. FFO, Core FFO and AFFO per diluted common share are defined as FFO, Core FFO and AFFO divided by weighted average diluted common shares outstanding. FFO, Core FFO and AFFO per diluted common share, as well as NOI, should be considered as supplemental measures of operating performance used by real estate investment trusts (REITs). FFO, Core FFO and AFFO per diluted common share exclude historical cost depreciation as an expense and may facilitate the comparison of REITs which have different cost basis. The items excluded from FFO, Core FFO and AFFO per diluted common share are significant components in understanding the Company’s financial performance.
FFO, Core FFO and AFFO per diluted common share (A) do not represent cash flow from operations as defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; (B) should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities; and (C) are not alternatives to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. FFO, Core FFO and AFFO per diluted common share, as well as NOI, as calculated by the Company, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other REITs.
The Company’s FFO and Core FFO for the three and twelve months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 are calculated as follows:
