NEW YORK, February 15, 2023 - RPT Realty (NYSE:RPT) (the "Company" or "RPT") today announced its financial and operating results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2022.
"Our results in 2022 underscored the strength of our business against the challenges of the current economic environment," said Brian Harper, President and CEO. "We experienced record setting signed not commenced levels, double-digit new releasing spreads, and our highest leasing volume in nearly a decade. While we had another year of accretive capital recycling into Boston and Miami, we will be disciplined, yet opportunistic in 2023. Our balance sheet is on solid footing with leverage ticking lower, no debt maturing until 2025 and a debt stack that is 95% fixed; positioning us to drive strong internal growth through our leasing and re-tenanting activities, which remain our highest and best use of capital.”
FINANCIAL RESULTS
Net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders for the fourth quarter 2022 of $56.8 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, compared to $(12.0) million, or $(0.15) per diluted share for the same period in 2021. Net income available to common shareholders for the full year 2022 of $77.3 million, or $0.89 per diluted share, compared to $61.9 million, or $0.75 per diluted share for the full year 2021.
FFO for the fourth quarter 2022 of $22.7 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, compared to $13.6 million, or $0.16 per diluted share for the same period in 2021. FFO for the full year 2022 of $95.8 million, or $1.02 per diluted share, compared to $70.2 million, or $0.85 per diluted share for the full year 2021.
Operating FFO for the fourth quarter 2022 of $22.2 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, compared to $21.9 million or $0.25 per diluted share for the same period in 2021. Operating FFO for the fourth quarter 2022 excludes certain net income that totaled $0.5 million, primarily attributable to gains on sale of land. The change in operating FFO per share was primarily attributable to lower NOI from the net impact of dispositions and acquisitions completed in 2021 and 2022, partially offset by higher management fees from unconsolidated joint ventures.
Operating FFO for the full year 2022 of $97.9 million, or $1.04 per diluted share, compared to $78.4 million, or $0.95 per diluted share in the full year 2021. Operating FFO for the full year 2022 excludes certain net expenses that totaled $2.1 million primarily attributable to transaction costs and loan amendment fees, partially offset by above and below-market lease intangible write-offs and gains on sale of land. The change in operating FFO per share was primarily driven by higher NOI from the net impact of acquisitions and dispositions completed in 2021 and 2022, lower rent not probable of collection net of abatements, higher management fees from unconsolidated joint ventures and lower interest expense, partially offset by higher general and administrative expense and an increase in common and dilutive shares.
Same property NOI during the fourth quarter 2022 increased 1.1% compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily driven by higher base rent excluding abatements associated with reversals of rent not probable of collection, partially offset by lower net recoveries.
Same property NOI for the full year 2022 increased 4.3% compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily driven by higher base rent and lower rent not probable of collection, net of abatements.

BALANCE SHEET
The Company ended the fourth quarter 2022 with $5.9 million in consolidated cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and $465.0 million of unused capacity on its $500.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility. At December 31, 2022, the Company had approximately $859.8 million of consolidated notional debt and finance lease obligations. Including the Company's pro-rata share of joint venture cash and notional debt of $4.9 million and $53.7 million, respectively, resulted in a fourth quarter 2022 net debt to annualized adjusted EBITDA ratio of 6.9x. Proforma for the $11.2 million signed not commenced rent and recovery income balance, the net debt to annualized adjusted EBITDA ratio would be 6.3x. Total debt including RPT's pro-rata share of joint venture debt had a weighted average interest rate of 3.63% and a weighted average maturity of 5.1 years.
FINANCING ACTIVITY
In October, the Company closed on the repayment of a $27.2 million mortgage secured by The Shops on Lane Avenue, thereby eliminating all debt maturities until 2025.
In December, the Company opportunistically executed forward starting swaps covering $160.0 million of notional value that swap SOFR to a fixed rate of 3.04%, consisting of $60.0 million fixed at 3.35% that starts in March 2023, $50.0 million fixed at 2.87% that starts in November 2024 and $50 million fixed at 2.86% that starts in January 2025. With these swaps, the Company has fixed the rate on the SOFR component of all outstanding term loan debt through their respective maturities.
As previously announced, in December, the Company settled 1.2 million common shares that were previously offered and sold on a forward basis under its at-the-market equity distribution program ("ATM") at a weighted average gross price of $13.85 per share. The Company currently has $133.0 million available for issuance under the ATM.
For the full year 2022, the Company, through its three strategic platforms, raised and closed on $1.2 billion of gross capital, comprised of an $810.0 million amended and restated credit facility, a $350.0 million refinancing of its RGMZ acquisition revolver, $52.0 million of R2G mortgage debt and $18.0 million of a forward equity issuance under the ATM.
INVESTMENT ACTIVITY
During the fourth quarter 2022, the Company closed on the contribution of two wholly-owned properties into its grocery-anchored joint venture platform for a total contract price of $162.7 million, retaining a 51.5% stake in both properties. The properties include The Shops on Lane Avenue in the Columbus market, valued at $80.8 million and Troy Marketplace in the Detroit market, valued at $81.9 million.

DIVIDEND
As previously announced, on February 9, 2023, the Board of Trustees declared a first quarter 2023 regular cash dividend of $0.14 per common share, representing an increase of 8% over the prior quarterly rate.

The dividends, for the period January 1, 2023 through March 31, 2023 are payable on April 3, 2023 for shareholders of record on March 20, 2023.
2023 GUIDANCE
The Company initiated 2023 operating FFO per diluted share guidance of $0.97 to $1.01. Selected expectations are outlined below.
•Same property NOI growth of 1.50% to 3.25%
•Same property NOI growth includes unfavorable impacts from assumed elevated bad debt expense and occupancy loss due to tenant bankruptcies
•Due to the current capital markets environment, the Company has assumed no multi-tenant acquisition and disposition activity at this point for 2023, however the Company will remain opportunistic with its three strategic investment platforms
The Company does not provide a reconciliation for non-GAAP estimates on a forward-looking basis, including the information under "2023 Guidance" above, where it is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and/or amount of various items that would impact net income attributable to common stockholders per diluted share, which is the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure. This includes, for example, acquisition costs and other non-core items that have not yet occurred, are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures provided without the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding GAAP financial measures.
The Company’s 2023 guidance reflects management’s view of current and future market conditions, including current expectations with respect to rental rates, occupancy levels, tenant bankruptcies, acquisitions and dispositions and debt and equity financing activities. To the extent actual results differ from our current expectations, the Company’s results may differ materially from the guidance set forth above. Other factors, as referenced elsewhere in this press release, may also cause the Company’s results to differ materially from the guidance set forth above.

(2)The total noncontrolling interest reflects OP units convertible on a one-of-one basis into common shares. The Company's net income for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 (largely driven by gain on sale of real estate), resulted in an income allocation to OP Units which drove an OP Unit ratio of $0.69 and $0.87, respectively (based on 1,607 weighted average OP units outstanding for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 1,876 weighted average OP Units outstanding for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, respectively). In instances when the OP Unit ratio exceeds basic FFO, the OP Units are considered anti-dilutive, and as a result are not included in the calculation of fully diluted FFO and Operating FFO for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2021.
(3)7.25% Series D Cumulative Convertible Perpetual Preferred Shares of Beneficial Interest, $0.01 par (“Series D Preferred Shares”) are paid annual dividends of $6.7 million and are currently convertible into approximately 7.0 million shares of common stock. They are dilutive only when earnings or FFO exceed approximately $0.24 per diluted share per quarter and $0.96 per diluted share per year. The conversion ratio is subject to adjustment based upon a number of factors, and such adjustment could affect the dilutive impact of the Series D convertible preferred shares on FFO and earning per share in future periods.
(4)For 2022, primarily comprised of fees paid by the Company associated with the early termination of an existing tenant which did not qualify for capitalization as an initial direct cost in accordance with ASC 842. For 2021, primarily costs associated with terminated acquisitions.
(5)Amounts noted are included in General and administrative expense.
(6)Amounts noted are included in Other income (expense), net.

Non-GAAP Financial Definitions
Certain of our key performance indicators are considered non-GAAP financial measures. Management uses these measures along with our GAAP financial statements in order to evaluate our operations results. We believe these measures provide additional and useful means to assess our performance. These measures do not represent alternatives to GAAP measures as indicators of performance and a comparison of the Company's presentations to similarly titled measures of other REITs may not necessarily be meaningful due to possible differences in definition and application by such REITs.
Funds From Operations (FFO)
As defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT), Funds From Operations (FFO) represents net income computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of operating real estate assets and impairment provisions on operating real estate assets or on investments in non-consolidated investees that are driven by measurable decreases in the fair value of operating real estate assets held by the investee, plus depreciation and amortization of depreciable real estate, (excluding amortization of financing costs). Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. We have adopted the NAREIT definition in our computation of FFO.
Operating FFO
In addition to FFO, we include Operating FFO as an additional measure of our financial and operating performance. Operating FFO excludes transactions costs and periodic items such as gains (or losses) from sales of non-operating real estate assets and impairment provisions on non-operating real estate assets, bargain purchase gains, severance expense, accelerated amortization of debt premiums, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, insured proceeds, net, accelerated write-offs of above and below market lease intangibles, accelerated write-offs of lease incentives and payment of loan amendment fees that are not adjusted under the current NAREIT definition of FFO. We provide a reconciliation of FFO to Operating FFO. In future periods, Operating FFO may also include other adjustments, which will be detailed in the reconciliation for such measure, that we believe will enhance comparability of Operating FFO from period to period. FFO and Operating FFO should not be considered alternatives to GAAP net income available to common shareholders or as alternatives to cash flow as measures of liquidity.
While we consider FFO available to common shareholders and Operating FFO available to common shareholders useful measures for reviewing our comparative operating and financial performance between periods or to compare our performance to different REITs, our computations of FFO and Operating FFO may differ from the computations utilized by other real estate companies, and therefore, may not be comparable. We recognize the limitations of FFO and Operating FFO when compared to GAAP net income available to common shareholders. FFO and Operating FFO available to common shareholders do not represent amounts available for needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations, or other commitments and uncertainties. In addition, FFO and Operating FFO do not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and are not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs, including the payment of dividends.
Net Operating Income (NOI) / Same Property NOI / NOI from Other Investments
NOI consists of (i) rental income and other property income, before straight-line rental income, amortization of lease inducements, amortization of acquired above and below market lease intangibles and lease termination fees less (ii) real estate taxes and all recoverable and non-recoverable operating expenses other than straight-line ground rent expense, in each case, including our share of these items from our R2G Venture LLC and RGMZ Venture REIT LLC unconsolidated joint ventures.
NOI, Same Property NOI and NOI from Other Investments are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures of real estate companies' operating performance. Same Property NOI is considered by management to be a relevant performance measure of our operations because it includes only the NOI of comparable operating properties for the reporting period. Same Property NOI for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 represents NOI from the Company's same property portfolio consisting of 35 consolidated operating properties and our 51.5% pro-rata share of six properties owned by our R2G Venture LLC unconsolidated joint venture and 100% of the 22 properties owned by our RGMZ Venture REIT LLC unconsolidated joint venture (excludes seven properties that is part of our Marketplace of Delray multi-tenant property where activities have started in preparation for redevelopment). All properties included in Same Property NOI were either acquired or placed in service and stabilized prior to January 1, 2021. We present Same Property NOI primarily to show the percentage change in our NOI from period to period across a consistent pool of properties. The properties contributed to RGMZ Venture REIT LLC had previously been parts of larger shopping centers that we own. Accordingly, 100.0% of the NOI from these properties is included in our results for periods on or prior to March 4, 2021 and, for these prior periods, we had not separately allocated expenses attributable to the larger shopping centers between these properties and the remainder of these shopping centers. As a result, in order to help ensure the comparability of our Same Property NOI for the periods presented, we are continuing to include 100.0% of the NOI from these properties in our Same Property NOI following their contribution even though our pro-rata share following March 4, 2021 is only 6.4%. Same Property NOI excludes properties under redevelopment or where activities have started in preparation for redevelopment. A property is designated as a redevelopment when planned improvements significantly impact the property. NOI from Other Investments for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 represents pro-rata NOI primarily from (i) properties disposed of and acquired during 2022 and 2021, (ii) Hunter's Square, Marketplace of Delray and The Crossroads (R2G) where the Company has begun activities in anticipation of future redevelopment, (iii) certain property related employee compensation, benefits, and travel expense and (iv) noncomparable operating income and expense adjustments. Non-RPT NOI from RGMZ Venture REIT LLC represents 93.6% of the properties contributed to RGMZ Venture REIT LLC after March 4, 2021, which is our partners' share of RGMZ Venture REIT LLC.

Non-GAAP Financial Definitions (continued)
NOI, Same Property NOI and NOI from Other Investments should not be considered as alternatives to net income in accordance with GAAP or as measures of liquidity. Our method of calculating these measures may differ from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.
Net Debt
Net Debt represents (i) our total debt principal, which excludes unamortized premium and deferred financing costs, net, plus (ii) our finance lease obligation, plus (iii) our pro-rata share of total debt principal, which excludes unamortized discount and deferred financing costs, net, of each of our unconsolidated entities, less (iv) our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, less (v) our pro-rata share of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of each of our unconsolidated entities. We present net debt to show the ratio of our net debt to our proforma Adjusted EBITDA.
EBITDAre/Adjusted EBITDA/Proforma Adjusted EBITDA
NAREIT defines EBITDAre as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, plus interest expense, income tax expense (benefit), depreciation and amortization and impairment of depreciable real estate and in substance real estate equity investments; plus or minus gains or losses from sales of operating real estate assets and interests in real estate equity investments; and adjustments to reflect our share of unconsolidated real estate joint ventures and partnerships for these items. The Company calculates EBITDAre in a manner consistent with the NAREIT definition. The Company also presents Adjusted EBITDA which is EBITDAre net of other items that we believe enhance comparability of Adjusted EBITDA across periods and are listed as adjustments in the applicable reconciliation. EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative measure of operating results or cash flow from operations as determined in accordance with GAAP.
Pro-Rata
We present certain financial information on a “pro-rata” basis or including “pro-rata” adjustments. Unless otherwise specified, pro-rata financial information includes our proportionate economic ownership of each of our unconsolidated joint ventures derived on an entity-by-entity basis by applying the ownership percentage interest used to arrive at our share of the net operations for the period consistent with the application of the equity method of accounting to each of our unconsolidated joint ventures. See page 34 of our quarterly financial and operating supplement for a discussion of important considerations and limitations that you should be aware of when reviewing financial information that we present on a pro-rata basis or include pro-rata adjustments.
Occupancy
Occupancy is defined, for a property or group of properties, as the ratio, expressed as a percentage, of (a) the number of square feet of such property economically occupied by tenants under leases with an initial term of greater than one year, to (b) the aggregate number of square feet for such property.
Leased Rate
Lease Rate is defined, for a property or group of properties, as the ratio, expressed as a percentage, of (a) the number of square feet of such property under leases with an initial term of greater than one year, including signed leases not yet commenced, to (b) the aggregate number of square feet for such property.
Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA)
Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) information is sourced from the United States Census Bureau and rank is determined based on the most recently available population estimates.
