WASHINGTON REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER FINANCIAL AND OPERATING RESULTS AND QUARTERLY DIVIDEND

Washington Real Estate Investment Trust (“Washington REIT” or the “Company”) (NYSE: WRE), a leading owner and operator of commercial and multifamily properties in the Washington, DC area, reported financial and operating results today for the quarter ended March 31, 2017:

First Quarter 2017 Highlights

Net income attributable to controlling interests was $6.6 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared to $2.4 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, in first quarter 2016. NAREIT Funds from Operations (FFO) was $32.7 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, compared to $28.4 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, in first quarter 2016. Additional highlights are as below:

Reported Core FFO of $0.44 per diluted share
Grew same-store Net Operating Income (NOI) by 10.4% year-over-year
Grew same-store NOI by 15.6% for the office, 7.9% for the retail and 4.0% for the multifamily portfolios year-over-year
Increased same-store ending occupancy by 320 basis points year-over-year to 93.7%
Announced the acquisition of Watergate 600, a 309,000 square foot office building in Washington, DC for $135.0 million in a transaction completed subsequent to quarter-end
Raised the bottom and top ends of the 2017 Core FFO guidance range by two cents to $1.76 to $1.84 from $1.74 to $1.82 per diluted share

"Washington REIT has delivered a strong start to 2017. We grew first quarter same-store NOI at the highest year-over-year rate in over 15 years, acquired an iconic DC office asset with strong NAV growth potential and recently raised our full-year Core FFO guidance range," said Paul T. McDermott, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We are capturing our region's robust job growth as demonstrated by our year-over-year occupancy gains, and are equipped with a solid balance sheet, strong 2017 same-store NOI growth projections, and a multi-year value-creation pipeline to deliver additional opportunities for growth in the Washington metro region."

Financial Summary

Net income attributable to controlling interests for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 was $6.6 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared to $2.4 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the corresponding prior year period, primarily due to lower interest expense and higher income from real estate.

NAREIT FFO(1) for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 was $32.7 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, compared to $28.4 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, for the corresponding prior year period.

Core FFO(1) was $32.9 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, compared to $29.1 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, for the corresponding prior year period. Further detail will be provided by management on the earnings call.

Operating Results

The Company's overall portfolio NOI(2) was $49.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, compared to $48.4 million in the corresponding prior year period. Overall portfolio ending occupancy(5) for the first quarter was at 93.5%, compared to 90.6% at the end of the first quarter last year and 93.5% at year-end 2016.

Same-store(3) portfolio ending occupancy for the first quarter of 2017 was 93.7%, compared to 90.5% at March 31, 2016 and 94.0% at year-end 2016. Same-store portfolio NOI for the first quarter increased by 10.4%, compared to the corresponding prior year period.
 
Office: 47% of Total NOI - Same-store NOI increased by 15.6% compared to the corresponding prior year period, primarily due to 910 basis points of economic occupancy(6) gains driven by lease commencements, of which approximately half occurred at the recently redeveloped Silverline Center with the rest predominantly within the Washington, DC office portfolio. Rents grew by 1.0% year-over-year. Same-store ending occupancy increased by 680 basis points year-over-year and by 140 basis points sequentially to 93.1%.

Retail: 24% of Total NOI - Same-store NOI increased 7.9% compared to the corresponding prior year period, primarily due to 240 basis points of economic occupancy gains driven by lease commencements, as well as weather-related operating expense savings and lower bad debt expense. Rents grew 0.6% year-over-year. Same-store ending occupancy increased by 260 basis points year-over-year to 93.8%, but decreased by 190 basis points sequentially primarily due to the previously announced Offenbacher's bankruptcy as well as the move-out of a large commodity retailer that has been backfilled by a supermarket chain expected to commence in the second half 2017.

Multifamily: 29% of Total NOI - Same-store NOI increased by 4.0% compared to the corresponding prior year period, driven by 130 basis points of rental growth and 90 basis points of economic occupancy gains over the corresponding prior year period, as well as weather-related operating expense savings. Same-store ending occupancy on a unit basis decreased by 40 basis points year-over-year and 80 basis points sequentially to 94.8% as the Company took advantage of high occupancy rates to increase rents more aggressively.

Leasing Activity

During the first quarter, Washington REIT signed commercial leases totaling 195,000 square feet, including 44,000 square feet of new leases and 151,000 square feet of renewal leases, as follows (all dollar amounts are on a per square foot basis):

Office renewal Tenant Improvements were higher than our rolling four-quarter average due to the early renewal and 16-year extension of Hughes, Hubbard & Reed LLP, one of the Company's 10 largest commercial tenants, for 54,154 square feet.

Acquisition Activity

On April 4, 2017, Washington REIT completed the acquisition of Watergate 600, a 309,000 square foot iconic office building on the Potomac riverfront in Washington, DC for $135.0 million in a transaction that is structured to include the issuance of operating partnership units for a portion of the purchase price.
Capital Update

In January 2017, Washington REIT refinanced pre-payable and maturing secured debt by drawing the remaining $50.0 million on the seven-year $150.0 million unsecured term loan, which is scheduled to mature in July 2023. Washington REIT entered into a forward swap from floating interest rates to a 2.86% all-in fixed interest rate for $150.0 million commencing on March 31, 2017.

Year-to-date, the Company issued 2,070,000 shares at an average price of $31.44 per share through the Company’s At-the-Market (ATM) program, raising gross proceeds of $65.1 million to maintain balance sheet strength.

Earnings Guidance

Washington REIT is reaffirming its recently increased guidance that raised the bottom and top ends of its 2017 Core FFO guidance range by two cents to $1.76 to $1.84 from $1.74 to $1.82 per fully diluted share.The following assumptions underpin this guidance:

Same-store NOI growth remains projected to range from 4.75% to 5.25%
Same-store office NOI growth is now raised to range from 7.25% to 7.75% from a previous range of 7.0% to 7.5%
Same-store retail NOI growth is now projected to range from 2.0% to 2.5% from a previous range of 3.0% to 3.5%, as the Company absorbs the full-year impact of tenant bankruptcies, including HHGregg
Same-store multifamily NOI growth remains projected to range from 2.5% to 3.0%
The Company's acquisition assumptions currently reflect Watergate 600, although it continues to seek further value-add opportunities
The Company assumes dispositions of assets ranging from $70 to $100 million
Interest expense is now projected to be approximately $47.5 to $48.5 million considering the acquisition of Watergate 600 and the anticipated timing of the assumed dispositions
General and administrative expense is now projected to be approximately $21.0 to $22.0 million
Non same-store office NOI is projected to range between $9.0 to $10.0 million
Non same-store multifamily NOI is projected to range between $13.0 to $13.75 million

Non same-store properties in 2017 consist of Riverside Apartments, which is a multifamily asset acquired in 2016 and The Army Navy Building and Braddock Metro Center, which are office assets that are being repositioned in 2017.

Washington REIT's 2017 Core FFO guidance is based on a number of factors, many of which are outside its control and all of which are subject to change. Washington REIT may change its guidance during the year as actual and anticipated results vary from these assumptions.

A reconciliation of projected net income attributable to the controlling interests per diluted share to projected Core FFO per diluted share for the year ending December 31, 2017 is as follows:

Certain statements in our earnings release and on our conference call are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include statements in this earnings release preceded by, followed by or that include the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “potential,” “project,” “will” and other similar expressions. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially. Such risks, uncertainties and other factors include, but are not limited to, changes in general and local economic and real estate market conditions, the potential for federal government budget reductions, the risk of failure to complete contemplated acquisitions and dispositions, the timing and pricing of lease transactions, the availability and cost of capital, fluctuations in interest rates, tenants' financial conditions, levels of competition, the effect of government regulation, and other risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in our filings with the SEC, including our 2016 Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. We assume no obligation to update or supplement forward-looking statements that become untrue because of subsequent events.

(1) Funds From Operations (“FFO”) - The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”) defines FFO (April, 2002 White Paper) as net income (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)) excluding gains (or losses) associated with sales of property, impairment of depreciable real estate and real estate depreciation and amortization. FFO is a non-GAAP measure and does not replace net income as a measure of performance or net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity. We consider FFO to be a standard supplemental measure for real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) because it facilitates an understanding of the operating performance of our properties without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which historically assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have instead historically risen or fallen with market conditions, we believe that FFO more accurately provides investors an indication of our ability to incur and service debt, make capital expenditures and fund other needs.

Core Funds From Operations (“Core FFO”) is calculated by adjusting FFO for the following items (which we believe are not indicative of the performance of Washington REIT's operating portfolio and affect the comparative measurement of Washington REIT's operating performance over



Washington Real Estate Investment Trust

time): (1) gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, (2) expenses related to acquisition and structuring activities, (3) executive transition costs and severance expense related to corporate reorganization and related to executive retirements or resignations, (4) property impairments, casualty gains, and gains or losses on sale not already excluded from FFO, as appropriate, and (5) relocation expense. These items can vary greatly from period to period, depending upon the volume of our acquisition activity and debt retirements, among other factors. We believe that by excluding these items, Core FFO serves as a useful, supplementary measure of Washington REIT's ability to incur and service debt and to distribute dividends to its shareholders. Core FFO is a non-GAAP and non-standardized measure and may be calculated differently by other REITs.

(2) Net Operating Income (“NOI”), defined as real estate rental revenue less real estate expenses, is a non-GAAP measure. NOI is calculated as net income, less non-real estate revenue and the results of discontinued operations (including the gain on sale, if any), plus interest expense, depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, acquisition costs, real estate impairment and gain or loss on extinguishment of debt. We also present NOI on a cash basis ("cash NOI") which is calculated as NOI less the impact of straight-lining of rent and amortization of market intangibles. We provide each of NOI and cash NOI as a supplement to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP. As such, neither should be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our operating performance. They are the primary performance measures we use to assess the results of our operations at the property level.

(3) For purposes of evaluating comparative operating performance, we categorize our properties as “same-store” or “non-same-store”. Same-store properties include all properties that were owned for the entirety of the current and prior reporting periods and exclude properties under redevelopment or development and properties purchased or sold at any time during the periods being compared. A non-same-store property is one that was acquired, under redevelopment or development, or placed into service during either of the periods being evaluated. We define redevelopment properties as those for which we expect to spend significant development and construction costs on existing or acquired buildings pursuant to a formal plan which has a current impact on operating results, occupancy and the ability to lease space with the intended result of a higher economic return on the property. Redevelopment and development properties are included in the same-store pool upon completion of the redevelopment or development, and the earlier of achieving 90% occupancy or two years after completion.

(4) Funds Available for Distribution (“FAD”) is a non-GAAP measure. It is calculated by subtracting from FFO (1) recurring expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing costs, that are capitalized and amortized and are necessary to maintain our properties and revenue stream (excluding items contemplated prior to acquisition or associated with development / redevelopment of a property) and (2) straight line rents, then adding (3) non-real estate depreciation and amortization, (4) non-cash fair value interest expense and (5) amortization of restricted share compensation, then adding or subtracting the (6) amortization of lease intangibles, (7) real estate impairment and (8) non-cash gain/loss on extinguishment of debt, as appropriate. FAD is included herein, because we consider it to be a performance measure of a REIT’s ability to incur and service debt and to distribute dividends to its shareholders. FAD is a non-GAAP and non-standardized measure, and may be calculated differently by other REITs.

(5) Ending Occupancy is calculated as occupied square footage as a percentage of total square footage as of the last day of that period.

(6) Economic occupancy is calculated as actual real estate rental revenue recognized for the period indicated as a percentage of gross potential real estate rental revenue for that period. We determine gross potential real estate rental revenue by valuing occupied units or square footage at contract rates and vacant units or square footage at market rates for comparable properties. We do not consider percentage rents and expense reimbursements in computing economic occupancy percentages.

(i) Same-Store properties include all stabilized properties that were owned for the entirety of 2017 and the prior year, and exclude properties under redevelopment or development and properties purchased or sold at any time during 2017 or the prior year. We define redevelopment properties as those for which we expect to spend significant development and construction costs on existing or acquired buildings pursuant to a formal plan which has a current impact on operating results, occupancy and the ability to lease space with the intended result of a higher economic return on the property. Properties under redevelopment or development are included with the non-same-store properties beginning in the period during which redevelopment or development activities commence. We consider properties to no longer be under redevelopment or development upon substantial completion of redevelopment or development activities, and the earlier of achieving 90% occupancy or two years after substantial completion. For Q1 2017 and Q1 2016, same-store properties exclude:

Multifamily Acquisitions: Riverside Apartments;
Office Redevelopment: The Army Navy Building and Braddock Metro Center.

Also excluded from same-store properties in Q1 2017 and Q1 2016 are:
Sold Properties:
Office: 6110 Executive Boulevard, Wayne Plaza, 600 Jefferson Plaza, West Gude Drive, 51 Monroe Street and One Central Plaza.
