Post Properties Announces First Quarter 2013 Earnings

Investor/Analyst Conference Call Scheduled for Tuesday, April 30 at 10:00 a.m. ET

ATLANTA, Monday, April 29, 2013 – Post Properties, Inc. (NYSE: PPS) announced today net income available to common shareholders of $19.4 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2013, compared to $20.9 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2012.

The Company’s net income available to common shareholders for the first quarter of 2012 included a gain of $6.1 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, on the sale of an asset.

Funds From Operations

The Company uses the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition of Funds from Operations (“FFO”) as an operating measure of the Company’s financial performance. A reconciliation of FFO to GAAP net income is included in the financial data (Table 1) accompanying this press release.

FFO for the first quarter of 2013 was $40.5 million, or $0.74 per diluted share, compared to $34.2 million, or $0.64 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2012.

Said Dave Stockert, Post’s CEO, “We are pleased to produce growth in core funds from operations for the quarter of more than 15 percent. These results point to the ongoing momentum in apartment market fundamentals, the strength of our capital position and the attractive return potential of our new projects in development.”

Same Store Community Data

Average economic occupancy at the Company’s 51 same store communities, containing 18,341 apartment units, was 95.3% and 95.8% for the first quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Total revenues for the same store communities increased 5.1% and total operating expenses increased 5.1% during the first quarter of 2013, compared to the first quarter of 2012, resulting in a 5.2% increase in same store net operating income (“NOI”). The average monthly rental rate per unit increased 5.3% during the first quarter of 2013, compared to the first quarter of 2012.

On a sequential basis, total revenues for the same store communities increased 0.8% and total operating expenses increased 3.8%, producing a 1.1% decrease in same store NOI for the first quarter of 2013, compared to the fourth quarter of 2012. On a sequential basis, the average monthly rental rate per unit increased 0.5%. For the first quarter of 2013, average economic occupancy at the same store communities was 95.3%, compared to 95.6% for the fourth quarter of 2012.

Same store NOI is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure. A reconciliation of same store NOI to the comparable GAAP financial measure is included in the financial data (Table 2) accompanying this press release. Information on same store NOI and average rental rate per unit by geographic market is also included in the financial data (Table 3) accompanying this press release.

Development Activity

In the aggregate, the Company has 2,046 units in seven apartment communities, and approximately 45,085 square feet of retail space, under development or in lease-up with a total estimated cost of $335.5 million. The Company currently expects to utilize available cash, available borrowings under its unsecured bank credit facilities, or other indebtedness, as well as net proceeds from its on-going condominium sales and, from time to time, its at-the-market common equity sales program to fund future estimated construction expenditures.

During the first quarter of 2013, the Company substantially completed the development of three of its communities: the second phase of its Post Carlyle Square™ apartment community in Washington D.C., its Post South Lamar™ apartment community in Austin, Texas, and the third phase of its Post Midtown Square® apartment community in Houston, Texas. During the first quarter of 2013, the Company also began leasing the third phase of its Post Lake® at Baldwin Park apartment community in Orlando, Florida and its Post Parkside™ at Wade apartment community in Raleigh, North Carolina. As of April 26, 2013, Post Carlyle Square™ – Phase II, Post South Lamar™, Post Midtown Square®—Phase III, Post Lake® at Baldwin Park – Phase III and Post Parkside™ at Wade were 73.6%, 82.8%, 84.8%, 10.6% and 4.2% leased, respectively.

Financing Activity

Leverage, Line and Term Loan Capacity

Total debt and preferred equity as a percentage of undepreciated real estate assets (adjusted for joint venture partners’ share of real estate assets and debt) was 38.1% at March 31, 2013.

As of April 26, 2013, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $113.4 million. Additionally, the Company had no outstanding borrowings, and letters of credit totaling $0.6 million under its combined $330 million unsecured lines of credit. The Company has no principal debt maturities in either 2013 or 2014.

Computations of debt ratios and reconciliations of the ratios to the appropriate GAAP measures in the Company’s financial statements are included in the financial data (Table 4) accompanying this press release.

At-the-Market Common Equity Activity

The Company has available an at-the-market (“ATM”) common equity program that provides for the sale of up to 4 million shares of common stock. As of March 31, 2013 and through April 26, 2013, no shares have been issued under that program. The Company expects to use its ATM program, from time to time, as an additional source of capital and liquidity, to maintain the strength of its balance sheet and to fund its future investment activities. Sales under this program are dependent upon a variety of factors, including, among others, market conditions, the trading price of the Company’s common stock, the Company’s liquidity position and the potential use of proceeds.

Condominium Activity

During the first quarter of 2013, the Company closed 20 condominium units at its Austin and Atlanta condominium projects for aggregate gross revenue of $17.5 million. As of April 26, 2013, the Company has, in the aggregate, closed 244 units at the Austin and Atlanta condominium projects and has 12 units under contract. There can be no assurance that condominium units under contract will close.

The Company recognized net gains in FFO of $8.2 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, from condominium sales activities during the first quarter of 2013, compared to $6.9 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, during the first quarter of 2012.

Recent Technology Initiatives

In a move to offer residents a better online experience, the Company recently announced the launch of MyPost™, its first mobile app, for residents. MyPost™ is available in the iTunes App Store and is a way to enhance the resident experience by allowing a resident to pay rent, submit maintenance requests, view service history and more. While the Company deployed the mobile app for iPhones initially, there are plans underway for an Android version.

As part of its ongoing technology and social media initiatives, the Company also recently launched a refreshed website. With its clean look and simpler navigation, www.postproperties.com makes it easier for apartment hunters to search for and compare units across multiple properties within a market or submarket.

2013 Outlook

The Company reaffirms its outlook for FFO per diluted share for the full year 2013 previously included in its February 4, 2013 earnings release. The estimates and assumptions presented in its February 4, 2013 release and its current outlook are forward looking and are based on the Company’s future view of the apartment and condominium markets and of general

economic conditions, as well as other risks outlined below under the caption “Forward-Looking Statements.” There can be no assurance that the Company’s actual results will not differ materially from the estimates set forth. The Company assumes no obligation to update this guidance in the future.

Supplemental Financial Data

The Company also produces Supplemental Financial Data that includes detailed information regarding the Company’s operating results, investment activity, financing activity, balance sheet and properties. This Supplemental Financial Data is considered an integral part of this earnings release and is available on the Company’s website. The Company’s Earnings Release and the Supplemental Financial Data are available through the Investors/Financial Reports/Quarterly and Other Reports section of the Company’s website at www.postproperties.com.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Defined Terms

The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures and other defined terms in this press release and in its Supplemental Financial Data available on the Company’s website. The non-GAAP financial measures include FFO, Adjusted Funds from Operations (“AFFO”), net operating income, same store capital expenditures, and certain debt statistics and ratios. The definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures are listed below and on page 19 of the Supplemental Financial Data. The Company believes that these measures are helpful to investors in measuring financial performance and/or liquidity and comparing such performance and/or liquidity to other REITs.

Funds from Operations - The Company uses FFO as an operating measure. The Company uses the NAREIT definition of FFO. FFO is defined by NAREIT to mean net income (loss) available to common shareholders determined in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from extraordinary items and sales of depreciable operating property, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and after adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures all determined on a consistent basis in accordance with GAAP. FFO presented in the Company’s press release and Supplemental Financial Data is not necessarily comparable to FFO presented by other real estate companies because not all real estate companies use the same definition. The Company’s FFO is comparable to the FFO of real estate companies that use the current NAREIT definition.

Accounting for real estate assets using historical cost accounting under GAAP assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. NAREIT stated in its April 2002 White Paper on Funds from Operations that “since real estate asset values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors have considered presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves.” As a result, the concept of FFO was created by NAREIT for the REIT industry to provide an alternate measure. Since the Company agrees with the concept of FFO and appreciates the reasons surrounding its creation, the Company believes that FFO is an important supplemental measure of operating performance. In addition, since most equity REITs provide FFO information to the investment community, the Company believes that FFO is a useful supplemental measure for comparing the Company’s results to those of other equity REITs. The Company believes that the line on its consolidated statement of operations entitled “net income available to common shareholders” is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to FFO.

Adjusted Funds From Operations - The Company also uses AFFO as an operating measure. AFFO is defined as FFO less operating capital expenditures and after adjusting for the impact of non-cash straight-line, long-term ground lease expense, non-cash impairment charges, debt extinguishment gains (losses) and preferred stock redemption costs. The Company believes that AFFO is an important supplemental measure of operating performance for an equity REIT because it provides investors with an indication of the REIT’s ability to fund its operating capital expenditures through earnings. In addition, since most equity REITs provide AFFO information to the investment community, the Company believes that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for comparing the Company to other equity REITs. The Company believes that the line on its consolidated statement of operations entitled “net income available to common shareholders” is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to AFFO.

Property Net Operating Income (“NOI”) - The Company uses property NOI, including same store NOI and same store NOI by market, as an operating measure. NOI is defined as rental and other revenues from real estate operations less total property

 

-3-

and maintenance expenses from real estate operations (exclusive of depreciation and amortization). The Company believes that NOI is an important supplemental measure of operating performance for a REIT’s operating real estate because it provides a measure of the core operations, rather than factoring in depreciation and amortization, financing costs and general and administrative expenses generally incurred at the corporate level. This measure is particularly useful, in the opinion of the Company, in evaluating the performance of geographic operations, same store groupings and individual properties. Additionally, the Company believes that NOI, as defined, is a widely accepted measure of comparative operating performance in the real estate investment community. The Company believes that the line on its consolidated statement of operations entitled “net income” is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to NOI.

Same Store Capital Expenditures - The Company uses same store annually recurring and periodically recurring capital expenditures as cash flow measures. Same store annually recurring and periodically recurring capital expenditures are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that same store annually recurring and periodically recurring capital expenditures are important indicators of the costs incurred by the Company in maintaining its same store communities on an ongoing basis. The corresponding GAAP measures include information with respect to the Company’s other operating segments consisting of communities stabilized in the prior year, lease-up communities, rehabilitation properties, sold properties and commercial properties in addition to same store information. Therefore, the Company believes that the Company’s presentation of same store annually recurring and periodically recurring capital expenditures is necessary to demonstrate same store replacement costs over time. The Company believes that the most directly comparable GAAP measure to same store annually recurring and periodically recurring capital expenditures is the line on the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows entitled “property capital expenditures,” which also includes revenue generating capital expenditures.

Debt Statistics and Debt Ratios - The Company uses a number of debt statistics and ratios as supplemental measures of liquidity. The numerator and/or the denominator of certain of these statistics and/or ratios include non-GAAP financial measures that have been reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. These debt statistics and ratios include: (1) interest coverage ratios; (2) fixed charge coverage ratios; (3) total debt as a percentage of undepreciated real estate assets (adjusted for joint venture partner’s share of debt); (4) total debt plus preferred equity as a percentage of undepreciated real estate assets (adjusted for joint venture partner’s share of debt); (5) a ratio of consolidated debt to total assets; (6) a ratio of secured debt to total assets; (7) a ratio of total unencumbered assets to unsecured debt; (8) a ratio of consolidated income available for debt service to annual debt service charge; and (9) a debt to annualized income available for debt service ratio. A number of these debt statistics and ratios are derived from covenants found in the Company’s debt agreements, including, among others, the Company’s senior unsecured notes. In addition, the Company presents these measures because the degree of leverage could affect the Company’s ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, development or other general corporate purposes. The Company uses these measures internally as an indicator of liquidity, and the Company believes that these measures are also utilized by the investment and analyst communities to better understand the Company’s liquidity.

The Company uses income available for debt service to calculate certain debt ratios and statistics. Income available for debt service is defined as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, gains on sales of real estate assets, non-cash impairment charges and other non-cash income and expenses. Income available for debt service is a supplemental measure of operating performance that does not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or cash flow from operating activities as determined under GAAP, and the Company’s calculation thereof may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other companies, including EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA.

Property Operating Statistics - The Company uses average economic occupancy, gross turnover, net turnover and percentage increases in rent for new and renewed leases as statistical measures of property operating performance. The Company defines average economic occupancy as gross potential rent less vacancy losses, model expenses and bad debt expenses divided by gross potential rent for the period, expressed as a percentage. Gross turnover is defined as the percentage of leases expiring during the period that are not renewed by the existing residents. Net turnover is defined as gross turnover decreased by the percentage of expiring leases where the residents transfer to a new apartment unit in the same community or in another Post® community. The percentage increases in rent for new and renewed leases are calculated using the respective new or renewed rental rate as of the date of a new lease, as compared with the previous rental rate on that same unit.
