Net income was $0.16 per diluted share compared to $0.09 per diluted share in the same period one year ago. Included in the third quarter 2009 and third quarter 2008 net income are respective charges of $0.02 and $0.03 per diluted share from the adoption of an accounting pronouncement impacting the accounting of our 3.875% convertible notes⁽¹⁾. Also included in the third quarter 2009 net income is a gain of $0.09 per diluted share related to the sale of real estate.

Funds From Operations (FFO)⁽²⁾ was $0.48 per diluted share compared to $0.53 per diluted share in the same period one year ago. This difference is largely due to share dilution from our equity offerings.

Guidance for 2009 FFO per diluted share is revised from a range of $1.95 to $2.15 to a range of $1.97 to $2.02, not including gains related to the repurchase of convertible debt which total $0.12 per diluted share through the end of third quarter 2009.

Multifamily properties’ core NOI for the third quarter increased 2.5% compared to the same period one year ago. Rental rate growth was -0.4% while core economic occupancy decreased 10 bps to 94.6%. Sequentially, core economic occupancy increased 200 bps from the second quarter of 2009.

Office properties’ core NOI for the third quarter decreased 2.9% compared to the same period one year ago. Rental rate growth was 2.2% while core economic occupancy decreased 70 bps to 91.8%. Sequentially, core economic occupancy decreased 80 bps from the second quarter of 2009.

Medical office properties’ core NOI for the third quarter decreased 1.1% compared to the same period one year ago. Rental rate growth was 2.3% while core economic occupancy increased 20 bps to 96.0%. Sequentially, core economic occupancy increased 10 bps from the second quarter of 2009.

Retail properties’ core NOI for the third quarter decreased 5.0% compared to the same period one year ago. Rental rate growth was 0.8% while core economic occupancy decreased 40 bps to 94.0%. Sequentially, core economic occupancy decreased 100 bps from the second quarter of 2009.

Industrial properties’ core NOI for the third quarter decreased 5.5% compared to the same period one year ago. Rental rate growth was -0.1% while core economic occupancy decreased 370 bps to 89.6%. Sequentially, core economic occupancy decreased 100 bps from the second quarter of 2009.

Rental rates for new and renewed office leases increased 7.3% to $29.06 per square foot, with $9.62 per square foot in tenant improvement costs and $4.93 per square foot in leasing costs.

Rental rates for new and renewed medical office leases increased 18.8% to $39.59 per square foot, with $18.23 per square foot in tenant improvement costs and $8.88 per square foot in leasing costs.

Rental rates for new and renewed retail leases decreased 8.6% to $21.37 per square foot, with no tenant improvement costs and $1.64 per square foot in leasing costs.

Rental rates for new and renewed industrial/flex leases increased 2.7% to $8.66 per square foot, with $0.73 per square foot in tenant improvement costs and $0.45 per square foot in leasing costs.

Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position APB14-1, Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement) (“FSP 14-1”), requires the bifurcation of a component of our 3.875% convertible notes, classification of that component in shareholders’ equity, and accretion of the resulting discount on the convertible notes to interest expense. As a result of the adoption of FSP 14-1, equity increased by $21.0 million as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008. The principal balance of our 3.875% convertible notes was reduced by $5.2 million and $12.0 million as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively, and the unamortized balance of the related loan origination costs was reduced by $2.1 million and $2.7 million, respectively. The decline in principal reflects the unamortized discount balance related to the adoption of FSP 14-1. Interest expense increased $0.8 million in the third quarter of 2009 and $1.3 million in the third quarter of 2008 as a result of the adoption. The gain (loss) on extinguishment of debt decreased by $0.4 million for the third quarter of 2009 as a result of the adoption.

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) from sales of property plus 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 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 FFO more accurately provides investors an indication of our ability to incur and service debt, make capital expenditures and fund other needs.

Net Operating income (“NOI”), defined as real estate rental revenue less real estate expenses, is a non-GAAP measure. We provide NOI as a supplement to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP. As such, it should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our operating performance. It is the primary performance measure we use to assess the results of our operations at the property level. 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 and general and administrative expenses.

For purposes of evaluating comparative operating performance, we categorize our properties as “core” or “non-core”. A core property is one that was owned for the entirety of the periods being evaluated. A non-core property is one that was acquired or placed into service during either of the periods being evaluated.

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 and (2) straight-line rents, then adding (3) non-real estate depreciation and amortization, (4) amortization of restricted share and unit compensation, and adding or subtracting amortization of lease intangibles, as appropriate. We consider FAD to be a measure of a REIT’s ability to incur and service debt and to distribute dividends to its shareholders. FAD is a non-standardized measure and may be calculated differently by other REITs.

Total market capitalization is calculated by multiplying the total outstanding common shares at period end times the closing share price on the last trading day of the period, and then adding the book value of the total outstanding debt at period end.
