Notes:
(1) Non-GAAP Information: Funds from operations (FFO) is defined as net income applicable to common shareholders, excluding gains or losses from sales of depreciable assets, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization. FFO per share is defined as FFO divided by weighted average shares outstanding. FFO and FFO per share should be considered as supplemental measures of operating performance used by real estate investment trusts (REITs). FFO and FFO per 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 and FFO per share are significant components in understanding the Company's financial performance.
FFO and FFO per share (A) do not represent cash flow from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles; (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 and FFO per share, as calculated by the Company, may not be comparable to similarly entitled measures reported by other REITs.
The Company's FFO and FFO per share for the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 are calculated as follows:
