PS Business Parks, Inc. (NYSE:PSB) reported operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2014.
Funds from operations (“FFO”) were $43.2 million, or $1.26 per share, as adjusted, for the three months ended June 30, 2014, an increase of $4.3 million, or 11.0%, from the three months ended June 30, 2013 of $38.9 million, or $1.22 per share, as adjusted. FFO was $85.2 million, or $2.48 per share, as adjusted, for the six months ended June 30, 2014, an increase of $7.1 million, or 9.1%, from the six months ended June 30, 2013 of $78.0 million, or $2.45 per share, as adjusted. The three and six month increase in FFO was primarily the result of increases in both Same Park and Non-Same Park net operating income (“NOI”). Reported FFO per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same periods in 2013 was flat due to Long-Term Equity Incentive Plan (“LTEIP”) amortization. Both adjusted and reported FFO per share were impacted by an increase in shares outstanding as a result of the November, 2013 common equity offering.
In order to provide meaningful period-to-period comparisons of FFO derived from the Company’s ongoing business operations, the following table reconciles reported FFO to adjusted FFO, which excludes LTEIP amortization for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013:
For the Three Months For the Six Months Ended June 30, Ended June 30, 2014 2013 Change 2014 2013 Change FFO per share, as reported $ 1.19 $ 1.19 — $ 2.39 $ 2.39 — LTEIP amortization 0.07 0.03 0.09 0.06 FFO per share, as adjusted $ 1.26 $ 1.22 3.3% $ 2.48 $ 2.45 1.2%Noted in the table above are the following adjustments to reconcile adjusted FFO to reported FFO. In March of 2014, the Company put in place a new LTEIP and recorded $2.4 million and $3.2 million of amortization for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to $917,000 and $2.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 related to the previous LTEIP.
Rental income increased $6.1 million, or 6.9%, from $87.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 to $94.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 as a result of a $4.0 million increase in rental income from Non-Same Park facilities and a $2.0 million, or 2.3%, increase from the Same Park portfolio. Rental income increased $13.3 million, or 7.5%, from $176.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 to $189.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 as a result of an $8.5 million increase in rental income from Non-Same Park facilities and a $4.7 million, or 2.7%, increase from the Same Park portfolio. The Same Park increase was due to an increase in occupancy, while the increase in Non-Same Park was due to a combination of an increase in occupancy and the acquisition of additional parks during the latter half of 2013.
Same Park operating expenses increased $315,000, or 1.1%, from $27.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 to $28.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 primarily as a result of an increase in occupancy. Same Park operating expenses increased $2.7 million, or 4.8%, from $56.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013 to $59.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 primarily as a result of a $1.6 million increase in snow removal costs due to the severe winter in Virginia and Maryland.
Net income allocable to common shareholders increased $1.1 million, or 12.8%, from $8.7 million, or $0.36 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2013 to $9.8 million, or $0.36 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Net income allocable to common shareholders increased $2.5 million, or 14.6%, from $17.3 million, or $0.71 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2013 to $19.8 million, or $0.73 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2014. These increases were due to an increase in NOI combined with a decrease in interest expense, partially offset by an increase in depreciation expense.
All per share amounts noted above are presented on a diluted basis.
Property Operations
To evaluate the performance of the Company’s portfolio over comparable periods, management analyzes the operating performance of properties owned and operated throughout both periods (herein referred to as “Same Park”). The Same Park portfolio includes all operating properties owned or acquired prior to January 1, 2012. Operating properties that the Company acquired subsequent to January 1, 2012 are referred to as “Non-Same Park.” For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Same Park facilities constitute 27.0 million rentable square feet, representing 90.9% of the 29.7 million square feet in the Company’s portfolio as of June 30, 2014.
The following table presents the operating results of the Company’s properties for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 in addition to other income and expense items affecting income from continuing operations (unaudited, in thousands, except per square foot amounts):

FFO is computed in accordance with the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). The White Paper defines FFO as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, before depreciation, amortization, gains or losses on asset dispositions, net income allocable to noncontrolling interests — common units, net income allocable to restricted stock unit holders, impairment charges and nonrecurring items. FFO should be analyzed in conjunction with net income. However, FFO should not be viewed as a substitute for net income as a measure of operating performance or liquidity as it does not reflect depreciation and amortization costs or the level of capital expenditure and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of the Company’s properties, which are significant economic costs and could materially impact the Company’s results from operations. Other REITs may use different methods for calculating FFO and, accordingly, the Company’s FFO may not be comparable to other real estate companies.
(2)
Per share amounts are computed using additional dilutive shares related to noncontrolling interests and restricted stock units.
(3)
FAD is computed by adjusting consolidated FFO for recurring capital improvements, which the Company defines as those costs incurred to maintain the assets’ value, tenant improvements, lease commissions, straight-line rent, stock compensation expense, in-place lease adjustment, amortization of lease incentives and tenant improvement reimbursements, capitalized interest and the effect of redemption/repurchase of preferred equity. Like FFO, the Company considers FAD to be a useful measure for investors to evaluate the operations and cash flows of a REIT. FAD does not represent net income or cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP.
