"2019 was a pivotal year for WashREIT on multiple fronts. We executed $1.3 billion of strategic transactions– a company record– to streamline and de-risk our portfolio and improve our ability to drive value creation," said Paul T. McDermott, President and CEO of WashREIT. "In addition to our transformative capital allocation, we exceeded our commercial leasing targets for 2019 and addressed the vast majority of our 2020 expirations. Looking ahead, we expect key lease commencements and multifamily value-creation to drive strong growth in the second half of 2020 and strong year-over-year growth in 2021."

Operating Results

The Company's overall portfolio NOI for the fourth quarter was $50.1 million, compared to $46.1 million in the same period one year ago and $49.6 million in the third quarter of 2019. Same-store portfolio NOI decreased by 0.2% for the full year and 2.0% for the fourth quarter on a year-over-year basis. The Company's overall portfolio ending occupancy (5) was 92.8%, compared to 93.1% at year-end 2018. Same-store portfolio ending occupancy (6) was 92.1% compared to 93.9% at year-end 2018.

Same-store portfolio by sector:
 
Office: 48% of Q4 2019 Same-Store NOI - Same-store NOI decreased by 4.6% and cash NOI decreased by 3.6% for the full year. Same-store NOI decreased by 6.9% and cash NOI decreased by 6.1% for the fourth quarter compared to the same period a year ago. The full-year decrease was primarily driven by the termination of a prior lease at Watergate 600 that has largely been re-leased and occupied. The fourth quarter decrease was largely driven by the aforementioned lease termination as well as the previously anticipated vacancy at 1220 19th Street, the majority of which has been re-leased. Same-store ending occupancy decreased by 510 basis points year-over-year and 40 basis points sequentially to 88.5% primarily due to the aforementioned lease termination that enabled the re-leasing of the majority of the space. The overall office portfolio was 89.6% occupied and 91.9% leased at year-end.

Multifamily: 43% of Q4 2019 Same-Store NOI - Same-store NOI and cash NOI increased by 4.6% for the full year. Same-store NOI increased by 4.6% and cash NOI increased by 4.8% for the fourth quarter on a year-over-year basis. The Company achieved 340 basis points of blended year-over-year lease rate growth(7) comprised of 430 basis points of renewal rate growth and 220 basis points of new lease rate growth reflecting strong demand for our value-oriented assets and the success of our daily pricing strategy which allows us to optimize rental income growth. Same-store ending occupancy increased by 20 basis points year over year and decreased by 10 basis points sequentially to 95.0%. The overall multifamily portfolio was 94.9% occupied and 96.4% leased at year-end.

Other: 9% of Q4 2019 Same-Store NOI - Same-store NOI increased by 3.4% and cash NOI increased by 4.9% for the full year. Same-store NOI decreased by 3.6% and cash NOI decreased by 0.1% year-over-year in the fourth quarter due to one-time benefits that impacted the fourth quarter of 2018. Same-store ending occupancy increased by 100 basis points year-over-year and 190 basis points sequentially to 90.9% and was 92.8% leased at year-end.

(a) Subsequent to the third quarter earnings call, the Company issued approximately 1.4 million shares through its at-the-market
(ATM) program at an average price of $30.77 for gross proceeds of $43.7 million. On a combined basis, the ATM issuance and
expected sale of John Marshall II reduced our 2020 Core FFO guidance by approximately $0.035 per share.
(b) Represents the sale of John Marshall II, which will reduce NOI by approximately $1.1 million per quarter


The non same-store multifamily properties in 2020 consist of the Assembly Portfolio, Cascade at Landmark, and the Trove multifamily development. John Marshall II is the only non same-store office property in 2020.

WashREIT's 2020 Core FFO guidance is based on a number of factors, many of which are outside the Company's control and all of which are subject to change. WashREIT may change the guidance provided during the year as actual and anticipated results vary from these assumptions, but WashREIT undertakes no obligation to do so.

While forward-looking statements reflect our good faith beliefs, they are not guarantees of future performance. We undertake no obligation to update our forward-looking statements or risk factors to reflect new information, future events, or otherwise.

This Earnings Release also includes certain forward-looking non-GAAP information. Due to the high variability and difficulty in making accurate forecasts and projections of some of the information excluded from these estimates, together with some of the excluded information not being ascertainable or accessible, the Company is unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts

(1) NAREIT Funds From Operations (“FFO”) is a non-GAAP measure. It is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”) in its NAREIT FFO White Paper - 2018 Restatement as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding gains (or losses) associated with sales of properties, impairments of depreciable real estate, and real estate depreciation and amortization. We consider NAREIT FFO to be a standard supplemental measure for equity 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 NAREIT FFO more accurately provides investors an indication of our ability to incur and service debt, make capital expenditures and fund other needs. Our NAREIT FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs. These other REITs may not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently.

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 WashREIT's operating portfolio and affect the comparative measurement of WashREIT's operating performance over time): (1) gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, (2) expenses related to acquisition and structuring activities, (3) executive transition costs, severance expenses and other expenses related to corporate restructuring 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 WashREIT'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) For purposes of evaluating comparative operating performance, we categorize our properties as “same-store”, “non-same-store” or "other." Same-store properties include properties that were owned for the entirety of the year being compared, and exclude properties under redevelopment or development and properties acquired, sold or classified as held for sale during the year being compared. We define development properties as those for which we have planned or ongoing major construction activities on existing or acquired land pursuant to an authorized development plan. We consider a property's development activities to be complete when the property is ready for its intended use. The property is categorized as same-store when it has been ready for its intended use for the entirety of the year being compared. We define redevelopment properties as those for which have planned or ongoing significant development and construction activities on existing or acquired buildings pursuant to an authorized plan, which has an impact on current operating results, occupancy and the ability to lease space with the intended result of a higher economic return on the property. We categorize a redevelopment property as same-store when redevelopment activities have been complete for the majority of each year being compared.

(3)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 or loss on sale, if any), plus interest expense, depreciation and amortization, lease origination expenses, general and administrative expenses, 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 believe that NOI and cash NOI are useful performance measures because, when compared across periods, they reflect the impact on operations of trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs on an unleveraged basis, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income. NOI and cash NOI excludes certain components from net income in order to provide results more closely related to a property’s results of operations. For example, interest expense is not necessarily linked to the operating performance of a real estate asset. In addition, depreciation and amortization, because of historical cost accounting and useful life estimates, may distort operating performance at the property level. As a result of the foregoing, we provide each of NOI and cash NOI as a supplement to net income, calculated in accordance with GAAP. Neither represents net income or income from continuing operations, in either case calculated in accordance with GAAP. As such, NOI and cash NOI should not be considered alternatives to these measures as an indication of our operating performance.

 
(4) Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA represents net debt as of period end divided by adjusted EBITDA for the period, as annualized (i.e. three months



Washington Real Estate Investment Trust
Page 6 of 12



periods are multiplied by four) or on a trailing 12 month basis. We define net debt as the total outstanding debt reported as per our consolidated balance sheets less cash and cash equivalents at the end of the period. Adjusted EBITDA is earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization, gain/loss on sale of real estate, casualty gain/loss, real estate impairment, gain/loss on extinguishment of debt, severance expense, relocation expense, acquisition and structuring expense and gain from non-disposal activities. We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be an appropriate performance measure because it permits investors to view income from operations without the effect of depreciation, and the cost of debt or non-operating gains and losses. Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA are a non-GAAP measures.

(5) Average Occupancy is based on monthly occupied net rentable square footage or monthly occupied multifamily units as a percentage of total net rentable square footage or total multifamily units, respectively.

(6) Ending Occupancy is calculated as occupied square footage or multifamily units as a percentage of total square footage or multifamily units, respectively, as of the last day of that period.

(7) Lease rate growth, which we sometimes refer to as "trade-out", is defined as the average percentage change in effective rent (net of concessions) for a new or renewed lease compared to the prior lease based on the move-in date.
