Kite Realty Group Trust and

Kite Property Group (the Predecessor)
Notes to Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements
September 30, 2005
(Unaudited)

 

Note 1.  Organization

 

Kite Realty Group Trust (the “Company” or “REIT”) was organized in Maryland on March 29, 2004 to succeed to the development, acquisition, construction and real estate businesses of Kite Property Group (“the Predecessor”).  The Predecessor was owned by Al Kite, John Kite and Paul Kite (the “Principals”) and certain executives and family members and consisted of the properties, entities and interests contributed to the Company or its subsidiaries by the Principals.  The Company began operations on August 16, 2004 when it completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) and concurrently consummated certain other formation transactions.  The IPO consisted of the sale of 16,300,000 common shares to the public at $13.00 per share, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $191.3 million.  The net proceeds were contributed by the Company in exchange for a 67.4% controlling interest in Kite Realty Group, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”).  A total of 833,267 shares were issued to the Principals and an executive of the Predecessor in exchange for their interests in certain properties and service companies.  Also, a total of 15,000 restricted shares were awarded to the non-employee members of the Company’s Board of Trustees.  On September 14, 2004, the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option to purchase an additional 2,000,000 common shares at $13.00 per share, resulting in additional net proceeds of $24.2 million.   In total, 19,148,267 shares were issued in connection with the Company’s formation and IPO.  In addition, a total of 8,281,882 units of the Operating Partnership were issued to the Principals and third parties in exchange for their interests in certain properties.

 

As a result of the IPO and related formation transactions, the Company, through the Operating Partnership, is engaged in the ownership, operation, management, leasing, acquisition, expansion, construction and development of neighborhood and community shopping centers and certain commercial real estate properties.  As of September 30, 2005, we consolidated 54 of the 56 entities that own properties in which we own interests.  The Company also provides real estate facilities management, construction, development and other advisory services to third parties through its taxable REIT subsidiaries.

 

Note 2.  Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements of Kite Realty Group Trust are presented on a consolidated basis and include all of the accounts of the Company, the Operating Partnership and the subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership.  The exchange of entities or interests held by the Principals for common shares of the REIT and limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership was accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control and, accordingly, related assets and liabilities were reflected at their historical cost basis.  The acquisition of the joint venture and minority partners’ interests in the properties has been accounted for as a purchase.

 

The Company allocates net operating results of the Operating Partnership based on the partners’ respective weighted average ownership interest.  The Company’s weighted average interest in the Operating Partnership for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2005 was 69.1% and 69.4%, respectively.  The Company’s interest in the Operating Partnership as of September 30, 2005 was 69.0%.  The Company adjusts the limited partners’ interests in the Operating Partnership at the end of each period to reflect their interest in the Operating Partnership.  This adjustment is reflected in the Company’s shareholders’ equity.  For the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2005, the limited partners’ weighted average interest in the Operating Partnership was 30.9% and 30.6%, respectively.  As of September 30, 2005, the limited partners’ interest was 31.0%.

 

The Company’s management has prepared the accompanying unaudited financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principals generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) may have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the presentation not misleading. The unaudited financial statements as of September 30, 2005 and for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 include, in the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial information set forth therein. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.  The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected on an annual basis.

 

Certain reclassifications of prior period amounts were made to conform to the 2005 presentation.  These reclassifications had no effect on net income previously reported.

Note 3.  Earnings Per Share

 

Basic earnings per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share is determined based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding combined with the incremental average shares that would have been outstanding assuming all potentially dilutive shares were converted into common shares as of the earliest date possible.  Share options are accounted for based on their fair market value at the date of grant.  Expense related to share options was approximately $73,000 and $221,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively.  The following table sets forth the computation for our basic and diluted earnings per share.

Potential dilutive securities include outstanding share options and units of limited partnership of the Operating Partnership which may be exchanged for shares under certain circumstances.  The only potentially dilutive securities that had a dilutive effect for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 were outstanding share options.  The outstanding share options did not have a dilutive effect in 2004 as the Company recorded a net loss.

Mortgage and construction loans are collateralized by certain real estate and are generally due in monthly installments of interest and principal and mature over various terms through 2022.  Variable interest rates on mortgage and construction loans are based on Prime or LIBOR plus a spread in a range of 165 to 275 basis points.  Fixed interest rates on mortgage loans range from 5.11% to 8.85%.

 

During the third quarter of 2005, the Company used proceeds from its revolving credit facility and other borrowings totaling approximately $28.0 million to acquire several development properties, invest in development projects and for general working capital purposes.  Loan payoffs and scheduled principal payments totaled approximately $2.7 million.

 

In September 2005, the Company obtained a mortgage loan commitment from a bank for up to $34.8 million to finance construction at the Beacon Hill development property.  As of September 30, 2005, approximately $3.4 million was outstanding.

 

As of September 30, 2005, the Company’s borrowing base under its revolving credit facility was approximately $128.5 million, of which approximately $15.6 million was available for additional borrowings.  Borrowings under the facility bear interest at a floating rate of LIBOR plus 135 to 160 basis points, depending on the Company’s leverage ratio.   As of September 30, 2005, there are eight properties available to be added to the borrowing base (upon completion of the lender’s due diligence process) as additional funds are required for potential additional borrowing capacity of approximately $21 million.

 

The following properties are encumbered by the revolving credit facility as of September 30, 2005: Silver Glen Crossing, Glendale Mall, Mid-America Clinical Labs, Hamilton Crossing, Kings Lake Square, Waterford Lakes, Publix at Acworth, PEN Products, Union Station Parking Garage, Galleria Plaza, Cedar Hill Village, Shops at Eagle Creek, Burlington Coat, Eastgate Pavilion, Four Corner Square and Stoney Creek Commons.

 

As of September 30, 2005, the Company had entered into letters of credit totaling approximately $2.9 million.

 

On October 3, 2005, the Company completed an offering of 8,500,000 common shares at a price of $15.01 per share for gross proceeds of approximately $127.6 million.  On October 28, 2005, the underwriters of the offering exercised a portion of their

 

11



 

overallotment option and purchased an additional 900,000 common shares at the public offering price of $15.01 per share, which resulted in additional gross proceeds of approximately $13.5 million.  Of the approximately $133.6 million of net proceeds of this offering, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and other expenses, the Company used $127 million:

 

                  to repay outstanding construction indebtedness of approximately $38.6 million and acquisition indebtedness of approximately $0.5 million on our Traders Point property;

                  to repay outstanding indebtedness on our Eagle Creek II development property and our Weston Park, Shops at Otty and Circuit City operating properties totaling approximately $13.6 million;

                  to pay down our secured revolving credit facility by approximately $60.2 million; and

                  to acquire an 85% interest in Bolton Plaza Shopping Center in Jacksonville, Florida for approximately $13.9 million.

 

The Company expects to use the remaining proceeds for general corporate purposes, including future acquisitions and development of properties.

 

Reflecting these reductions in indebtedness and reflecting the Company’s hedging activities, its fixed and variable rate debt as of September 30, 2005 were $269.3 million and $49.7 million, respectively.

 

As a result of the pay down of debt in connection with our offering, the Traders Point, Eagle Creek Phase II, Weston Park, Shops at Otty, and Circuit City properties are available to be added to the borrowing base under the Company’s revolving credit facility.

 

Note 8.  Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

 

At September 30, 2005, derivatives with a fair value of $228,612 were included in other liabilities.  The change in net unrealized income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 of income of $144,383 and a loss of $228,612, respectively, for derivatives designated as cash flow hedges is recorded in shareholders’ equity as other comprehensive loss.  No hedge ineffectiveness on cash flow hedges was recognized during the third quarter of 2005.  Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to derivatives will be reclassified to earnings over time as the hedged items are recognized in earnings.

 

The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes nor does the Company currently have any derivatives that are not designated as hedges.

 

Note 9.  Shareholders’ Equity

 

On August 4, 2005, the Board of Trustees declared a distribution of $0.1875 per common share for third quarter of 2005.  Simultaneously, the Board of Trustees declared a distribution of $0.1875 per operating partnership unit for the same period.  Both distributions were paid on October 18, 2005.

Note 11.  New Accounting Pronouncements

 

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004) “Share-Based Payments” (“SFAS No. 123(R)”), which supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and its related implementation guidance.  SFAS No. 123(R) establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods and services.  SFAS No 123(R) is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005.  The impact of adopting SFAS No. 123(R) is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

 

Note 12.  Commitments and Contingencies

 

The Company is not subject to any material litigation nor, to management’s knowledge, is any material litigation currently threatened against the Company.

Note 13.  Subsequent Events

 

On October 3, 2005, the Company completed an offering of 8,500,000 common shares at a price of $15.01 per share for gross proceeds of approximately $127.6 million.  On October 28, 2005, the underwriters of the offering exercised a portion of their overallotment option and purchased an additional 900,000 common shares at the public offering price of $15.01 per share, which resulted in additional gross proceeds of approximately $13.5 million.  Of the approximately $133.6 million of net proceeds of this offering, after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and other expenses, the Company used approximately $127 million:

 

                  to repay outstanding construction indebtedness of approximately $38.6 million and acquisition indebtedness of approximately $0.5 million on our Traders Point property;

                  to repay outstanding indebtedness on our Eagle Creek II development property and our Weston Park, Shops at Otty and Circuit City operating properties totaling approximately $13.6 million;

                  to pay down our secured revolving credit facility by approximately $60.2 million; and

                  to acquire an 85% interest in Bolton Plaza Shopping Center in Jacksonville, Florida for approximately $13.9 million

 

The Company expects to use the remaining proceeds for general corporate purposes, including future acquisitions and development of properties.

 

On October 3, 2005, the Company acquired approximately 12 acres in Westfield, Indiana (a northern suburb of Indianapolis) for a purchase price of approximately $4.8 million and placed an adjacent 8 acres under contract. Bridgewater Marketplace is anticipated to be a two-phase development. Phase I will be developed on the first 12 acres and will include a Walgreen’s, two outparcels, approximately 25,000 square feet of small shops and a potential junior box. We anticipate the second
phase will be developed subsequent to the time the Company closes on the adjacent 8 acres. The Company financed this acquisition with borrowings on its revolving credit facility.

 

On October 21, 2005, the Company contributed $16.7 million for a 50% economic interest in a joint venture that owns 32.5 acres of undeveloped land in Delray Beach, Florida.  Delray Beach Marketplace is a planned mixed-use development that is zoned to support up to 322,000 square feet and is anticipated to include two anchors, junior boxes, small shops, restaurants and residential units.  The Company financed this acquisition with borrowings on its revolving credit facility.

 

On November 1, 2005, the Company contributed $13.9 million for an 85% economic interest in a joint venture that acquired Bolton Plaza Shopping Center in Orange Park, Florida (a suburb of Jacksonville).  Bolton Plaza Shopping Center is a 173,000 square foot community shopping center, including a 131,488 square foot Wal-Mart and 41,500 square feet of small shops.  The property was approximately 92% leased as of September 30, 2005.  Wal-Mart’s lease at this property expires in June 2008 and the Company plans to redevelop the property at that time.  The Company financed this acquisition with proceeds from its equity offering.

 

On November 3, 2005, the Board of Trustees declared a distribution of $0.1875 per common share for the fourth quarter of 2005.  Simultaneously, the Board of Trustees declared a distribution of $0.1875 per operating partnership unit for the same period.  Both distributions are payable on or about January 17, 2006 to shareholders of record as of January 6, 2006.

 

On November 10, 2005, a joint venture in which the Company owns a 50% economic interest acquired 22.2 acres of land in Pembroke Pines, Florida for approximately $11.0 million.  The site is zoned to allow for development of up to 255,000 square feet of retail.  The development is expected to be anchored by Whole Foods, which has executed a lease for a 56,250 square foot grocery store, and will also include small shops, restaurant pads and a potential junior box.  The Company financed its portion of this investment with borrowings on its revolving credit facility.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The following discussion should be read in connection with the accompanying historical financial statements and related notes thereto.  In this discussion, unless the context suggests otherwise, references to “our Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” mean Kite Realty Group Trust and its subsidiaries and the Predecessor.  Kite Property Group is the Predecessor to Kite Realty Group Trust.

 

Overview

 

We are a full-service, vertically integrated real estate investment trust focused primarily on the development, construction, acquisition, ownership and operation of high quality neighborhood and community shopping centers in selected growth markets in the United States. We also provide real estate facility management, construction, development and other advisory services to third parties.

 

As of September 30, 2005, we owned interests in a portfolio of 37 operating retail properties totaling approximately 5.7 million square feet of gross leasable area (including non-owned anchor space) and 13 retail properties under development that are expected to contain approximately 1.8 million square feet of gross leasable area (including non-owned anchor space) upon completion. As of September 30, 2005, we also owned interests in five operating commercial properties totaling approximately 663,000 square feet of net rentable area and a related parking garage. In addition, at that date we owned interests in land parcels comprising approximately 130 acres that may be used for expansion of existing properties or future development of new retail or commercial properties.

 

We derive revenues primarily from rents and reimbursement payments received from tenants under existing leases at each of our properties. We also derive revenues from providing management, leasing, real estate development, construction and real estate advisory services through subsidiaries of our taxable REIT subsidiaries. Our operating results therefore depend materially on the ability of our tenants to make required payments and overall real estate market conditions.

 

In the future, we intend to focus on internal growth and pursuing targeted development and acquisitions of neighborhood and community shopping centers. We expect to incur additional debt in connection with any future development or acquisitions of real estate.

 

Results of Operations

 

Acquisition and Development Activities

 

The comparability of results of operations is significantly affected by our development and acquisition activities in 2005 and 2004 and the effects of the formation transactions related to our IPO.  At September 30, 2005, we owned interests in 43 operating properties (consisting of 37 retail properties, five commercial operating properties and a related parking garage) and had 13 properties under development. Of the 56 total properties held at September 30, 2005, two operating properties (Spring Mill Medical and The Centre) were owned through joint ventures and accounted for under the equity method.

 

During 2004 and the first nine months of 2005, we acquired and placed in service the following operating retail properties:

At September 30, 2004, we owned interests in 32 operating properties (consisting of 27 retail properties, four commercial properties and a related parking garage) and had 11 properties under development. Of the 43 total properties held at September 30, 2004, two operating properties were owned through joint ventures and were accounted for under the equity method.

Rental income (including tenant reimbursements) increased approximately $8.5 million or 99%.   Approximately $5.9 million of this increase was attributable to properties acquired in 2004 or 2005, approximately $2.7 million was attributable to properties that became operational or partially operational in 2004 or 2005 and, therefore, had incremental rental income in 2005.  Approximately $0.6 million of the increase reflects the consolidation of properties following our acquisition of joint venture partners’ interests in connection with our IPO and related formation transactions and approximately $0.2 million of the increase is due to temporary ground lease payments under a license agreement.  Offsetting these increases was a decrease of approximately $0.3 million due to the rejection of leases by Ultimate Electronics at Cedar Hill Village and Galleria Plaza and a decrease of approximately $0.6 million at Glendale, largely due to a decline in tenant reimbursement revenue as a result of a successful property tax appeal that reduced tenant billings at this property.

 

Other property related revenue primarily consists of parking revenues, lease settlement income and gains on land sales. This revenue increased approximately $2.2 million or 931%.   Approximately $2.1 million of the increase is attributable to the sale of outlots at Traders Point ($1.0 million) and Beacon Hill ($1.1 million) and approximately $0.1 million is attributable to overage rent.  The Beacon Hill outlot was owned in a joint venture and, accordingly, 50%, or approximately $0.6 million, of this gain is recorded as a minority interest.

 

Construction revenue and service fees increased approximately $1.8 million or 60%.  This increase is due to an increase of $1.7 million in construction contracts with third-party customers, and $0.2 million in third-party development-related fees, offset by declines in advisory revenue of approximately $0.1 million due to the expiration of several contracts.

 

Property operating expenses increased approximately $0.7 million or 30%.   Approximately $0.6 million of this increase was attributable to properties acquired in 2004 and 2005, approximately $0.3 million was attributable to properties that became operational or partially operational in 2005 and 2004 and, therefore, had incremental property operating expense in 2005 and approximately $0.1 million was due to the consolidation of properties following our acquisition of joint venture partners’ interests in connection with our IPO and related formation transactions.  Offsetting these increases was a decrease of $0.2 million in expenses incurred at properties operating for all of the third quarter of 2005 and 2004.

 

17



 

Real estate taxes increased approximately $0.7 million or 68%. Approximately $0.8 million of this increase was attributable to properties acquired in 2004 or 2005, approximately $0.2 million was attributable to properties that became operational or partially operational in 2005 and 2004 and, therefore, had incremental real estate tax expense in 2005, approximately $0.1 million was due to the consolidation of properties following our acquisition of joint venture partners’ interests in connection with our IPO and related formation transactions and approximately $0.1 million was attributable to properties that were fully operational for the third quarter of 2005 and 2004.  Offsetting these increases was a decrease of approximately $0.6 million at Glendale from a successful property tax appeal at this property.

 

Cost of construction and services increased approximately $1.5 million or 51%.  This increase was primarily due to an increase in construction contracts with third-party customers.

 

General, administrative and other expenses increased approximately $0.2 million or 20%.  This increase is due to increased staffing attributable to our growth and to incremental costs associated with operating as a public company.

 

Depreciation and amortization expense increased approximately $2.7 million or 98%. Approximately $1.9 million of the increase was attributable to properties acquired in 2004 and 2005, approximately $0.7 million was attributable to properties that became operational or partially operational in 2005 or 2004 and, therefore, had incremental depreciation and amortization expense in 2005.  Approximately $0.3 million of the increase was due to the consolidation of properties following our acquisition of joint venture and minority partners’ interests in connection with our IPO and related formation transactions.  Offsetting these increases was a decrease of $0.1 million at properties that were fully operational for the third quarter of 2005 and 2004.

 

Interest expense increased approximately $2.5 million, or 97%.  Approximately $1.2 million of the increase was attributable to properties acquired in 2004 and 2005, approximately $1.0 million was attributable to properties that became operational or partially operational in 2005 or 2004 and, therefore, had incremental interest expense in 2005.  Approximately $1.0 million of the increase was due to higher borrowings on our revolving credit facility used primarily to finance property acquisition and land development activities and for working capital requirements and approximately $0.2 million was due to the consolidation of properties following our acquisition of the joint venture partners’ interests in connection with our IPO and related formation transactions.  Offsetting these increases was a decrease of $0.8 million at properties that were fully operational for the third quarter of 2005 and 2004 due to debt pay downs in connection with our initial public offering in 2004.

 

In 2004, we incurred approximately $1.7 million in loan prepayment penalties in connection with our initial public offering and related formation transactions.

 

In 2005, we recorded $0.2 million in income taxes associated primarily with the gain on the sale of a land parcel by our taxable REIT subsidiary.

 

Minority interest (income) loss was a loss of approximately $0.3 million in 2004 and income of $0.6 million in 2005.  The loss in 2004 is largely attributable to joint venture and minority interests that were acquired in connection with our initial public offering and related formation transactions, while the income in 2005 is primarily due to our joint venture partner’s interest in the gain on the sale of an outlot at Beacon Hill.

 

Equity in the earnings of unconsolidated entities decreased approximately $0.1 million.  This decrease is attributable to the consolidation of properties following our acquisition of the joint venture partners’ interests in connection with our IPO and related formation transactions.

 

The change in the limited partners’ interests in the operating partnership is largely related to our results before the limited partners’ interest, which was income of $2.9 million in 2005 and a loss of $1.8 million in 2004.

Rental income (including tenant reimbursements) increased approximately $31.4 million or 176%.  Approximately $20.5 million of this increase was attributable to properties acquired in 2004 or 2005, approximately $7.3 million was attributable to properties that became operational or partially operational in 2004 or 2005 and, therefore, had incremental rental income in 2005.  Approximately $4.2 million of the increase reflects the consolidation of properties following our acquisition of joint venture partners’ interests in connection with our IPO and related formation transactions and approximately $0.5 million is due to temporary ground lease payments under a license agreement.   Approximately $0.3 million of the increase is from properties fully operational in both years and is largely due to the conversion of the contractual arrangement at the Union Station Parking Garage from a daily fee arrangement to a net lease.  Offsetting these increases was a decrease of approximately $0.3 million due to the rejection of leases by Ultimate Electronics at Cedar Hill Village and Galleria Plaza and a decrease of approximately $0.9 million at Glendale Mall, largely due to a decline in tenant reimbursement revenue as a result of a successful property tax appeal that reduced tenant billings at this property and a decline in it’s occupancy.

 

Other property related revenue primarily consists of parking revenues, lease settlement income and gains on land sales. This revenue increased approximately $2.3 million or 160%.  Approximately $2.8 million of the increase is attributable to the sale of outlots at Traders Point ($1.0 million), Beacon Hill ($1.1 million) and Noblesville ($0.7 million).  The Beacon Hill outlot was owned in a joint venture and, accordingly, 50%, or approximately $0.6 million, of this gain is recorded as minority interest income.  Approximately $0.2 million is from the sale of land development rights, approximately $0.2 million is attributable to lease termination income and approximately $0.1 million of the increase is attributable to overage rent.  The conversion of the contractual arrangement at the Union Station Parking Garage from a daily fee arrangement to a net lease resulted in a decrease of $0.6 million.  We also sold a land parcel in 2004 for a net gain of $0.4 million.

 

Construction revenue and service fees increased approximately $6.5 million or 91%.  This increase is due to an increase of $6.3 million in construction contracts with third-party customers and $0.9 million in development-related fees, offset by declines in advisory revenue of approximately $0.7 million due to the expiration of several contracts.

 

Property operating expenses increased approximately $2.9 million or 56%.   Approximately $2.5 million of this increase was attributable to properties acquired in 2004 and 2005, approximately $0.8 million was attributable to properties that became operational or partially operational in 2005 and 2004 and, therefore, had incremental property operating expense in 2005 and approximately $0.9 million was due to the consolidation of properties following our acquisition of joint venture partners’ interests in connection with our IPO and related formation transactions.  Offsetting these increases was a decrease of $0.9 million in expenses incurred at properties that were fully operational in both years, primarily due to the conversion of the contractual arrangement at the Union Station Parking Garage from a daily fee arrangement to a net lease and a decrease of $0.3 million at Glendale Mall.

 

19



 

Real estate taxes increased approximately $2.9 million or 130%. Approximately $2.6 million of this increase was attributable to properties acquired in 2004 or 2005, $0.6 million was attributable to properties that became operational or partially operational in 2005 and 2004 and, therefore, had incremental real estate tax expense in 2005 and approximately $0.4 million was due to the consolidation of properties following our acquisition of joint venture partners’ interests in connection with our IPO and related formation transactions.  Offsetting these increases was a decrease of approximately $0.7 million at Glendale Mall from a successful property tax appeal at this property.

 

Cost of construction and services increased approximately $5.4 million or 86%.  This increase was primarily due to an increase in construction contracts with third-party customers.

 

General, administrative and other expenses increased approximately $1.6 million or 76%.  This increase is largely due to incremental costs associated with operating as a public company, such as professional fees and insurance.

 

Depreciation and amortization expense increased approximately $10.7 million or 204%. Approximately $6.4 million of the increase was attributable to properties acquired in 2004 and 2005, $1.8 million was attributable to properties that became operational or partially operational in 2005 or 2004 and, therefore, had incremental depreciation and amortization expense in 2005.  Approximately $1.4 million of the increase was due to the consolidation of properties following our acquisition of joint venture and minority partners’ interests in connection with our IPO and related formation transactions and approximately $1.1 million was attributable to properties that were fully operational in both years, primarily as a result of the consolidation of Glendale Mall as of March 31, 2004 and the write off of fixed assets as a result of lease terminations at this property.

 

Interest expense increased approximately $7.5 million, or 124%. Approximately $3.1 million was attributable to properties that became operational or partially operational in 2005 or 2004 and, therefore, had incremental interest expense in 2005.  Approximately $2.9 million was due to increased borrowings on our revolving credit facility used primarily to finance property acquisition activities and for working capital requirements.  Approximately $2.3 million of the increase was attributable to properties acquired in 2004 and 2005, and approximately $1.3 million was due to the consolidation of properties following our acquisition of joint venture partners’ interests in connection with our IPO and related formation transactions.  These increases were partially offset by decreases totaling approximately $2.0 million due to incremental financing costs incurred in 2004 and to the pay down of debt in 2004 both in connection with our initial public offering and related formation transactions in 2004.

 

In 2004, we incurred approximately $1.7 million in loan prepayment penalties in connection with our initial public offering and related formation transactions.

 

In 2005, we recorded $0.2 million in income taxes associated primarily with the gain on the sale of a land parcel in our taxable REIT subsidiary.

 

Minority interest (income) loss was a loss of approximately $0.2 million in 2004 and income of $0.7 million in 2005.  The loss in 2004 is largely attributable to joint venture and minority interests that were acquired in connection with our initial public offering and related formation transactions, while the income in 2005 is largely attributable to our joint venture partner’s interest in the gain on the sale of an outlot at Beacon Hill.

 

The change in the limited partners’ interests in the operating partnership is largely related to our results before the limited partners’ interest, which was income of $8.0 million in 2005 and a loss of $1.8 million in 2004.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2005, we had cash and cash equivalents on hand of $14.1 million.

 

As of September 30, 2005, our borrowing base under the revolving credit facility was approximately $128.5 million, of which approximately $15.6 million was available for additional borrowings Borrowings under the credit facility bear interest at a floating rate of LIBOR plus 135 to 160 basis points, depending on our leverage ratio.  As of September 30, 2005, there are eight properties available to be added to the borrowing base (upon completion of the lender’s due diligence process) as additional funds are required for potential additional borrowing capacity of approximately $21 million.

 

In October 2005, we completed an offering of common shares that provided us with an aggregate of approximately $133.6 million of net proceeds (including the underwriters’ exercise of their option and after deducting underwriting discounts, commissions and other expenses).  We used approximately $112.9 million of these net proceeds to pay down outstanding indebtedness.  As a result, we believe that our balance sheet has been significantly improved, and additional amounts are available for future borrowing to fund acquisitions and development of properties and other cash needs.  As a result of the pay down of debt in connection with our October 2005 offering, our Traders Point, Eagle Creek Phase II, Weston Park, Shops at Otty, and Circuit City properties are available to be added to the borrowing base.

 

Our objective in using derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements and other identified risks.  To accomplish this objective, we use interest rate swaps as part of our cash flow hedging

strategy.  Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts in exchange for fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying principal amount.  During 2005, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with certain of our existing variable-rate debt.

 

We derive the majority of our revenue from tenants who lease space from us at our properties. Therefore, our ability to generate cash from operations is dependent on the rents that we are able to charge and collect from our tenants. While we believe that the nature of the properties in which we typically invest—primarily neighborhood and community shopping centers—provides a relatively stable revenue flow in uncertain economic times, general economic downturns or downturns in the markets in which we own properties may still adversely affect the ability of our tenants to meet their lease obligations. In that event, our cash flow from operations could be materially affected.

 

In January 2005, Ultimate Electronics filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection to reorganize its business operations.  During the second quarter of 2005 this tenant rejected its leases with us at Galleria Plaza and at Cedar Hill Plaza.  During the third quarter of 2005, we re-leased the former Ultimate Electronics spaces at Galleria Plaza to Shoe Pavilion and at Cedar Hill Village to 24 Hour Fitness.  These two leases represent a total of approximately 64,000 square feet. We anticipate that both tenants will open in the spring of 2006.

 

On February 21, 2005, Winn-Dixie filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection to reorganize its business operations.  This tenant operates in two locations in our portfolio totaling approximately 103,400 square feet at an average base rent of $7.80 per square foot, representing approximately 1.5% of our total annualized base rent as of September 30, 2005.  The tenant continues to operate in both locations and has paid rent through September 2005 but there can be no assurance of its ability to pay rent prospectively.  As of September 30, 2005, Winn-Dixie had not announced plans to close the stores at either of our properties, nor had it rejected either lease.

 

The delay or failure of Winn-Dixie to make payments under its leases or its rejection of both of the leases under federal bankruptcy laws could affect our short-term liquidity in the event we are not able to timely identify a replacement tenant.  In addition, Winn-Dixie’s termination of leases or closure of stores could result in lease terminations or reductions in rent by other tenants in the same shopping centers under the terms of some leases.

 

Our Glendale Mall property in Indianapolis, Indiana has an annualized base rent of approximately $2.6 million as of September 30, 2005, or approximately 4.5% of our total annualized base rent.  As of September 30, 2005, Glendale Mall was approximately 85% leased.  We are currently evaluating several strategic alternatives with respect to this property including continuing to lease space in its current configuration and the possibility of redeveloping or selling the property.

 

The nature of our business, coupled with the requirements for qualifying for REIT status (which includes the requirement that we distribute to shareholders at least 90% of our annual REIT taxable income) and to avoid paying tax on our income, necessitate that we distribute a substantial majority of our income on an annual basis which will cause us to have substantial liquidity needs over both the short term and the long term. Our short-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay operating expenses associated with our operating properties, interest expense and scheduled principal payments on our debt, expected dividend payments (including distributions to persons who hold units in our operating partnership) and recurring capital expenditures. When we lease space to new tenants, or renew leases for existing tenants, we also incur expenditures for tenant improvements and leasing commissions. This amount, as well as the amount of recurring capital expenditures that we incur, will vary from year to year. During the first nine months of 2005, we incurred approximately $420,000 of costs for recurring capital expenditures and $370,000 of costs for tenant improvements and leasing commissions, all exclusive of amounts incurred under construction loans for our development properties.  We expect to meet our short-term liquidity needs through cash generated from operations and, to the extent necessary, borrowings under the revolving credit facility.

 

Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for development of new properties, redevelopment of existing properties, non-recurring capital expenditures, acquisitions of properties and payment of indebtedness at maturity. As of September 30, 2005, we have 13 development projects underway that are expected to cost approximately $164 million, of which approximately $99 million had been incurred as of September 30, 2005. In addition, we are actively pursuing the acquisition and development of other properties, which will require additional capital. We do not expect that we will have sufficient funds on hand to meet these long-term cash requirements. We will have to satisfy these needs through either additional borrowings, sales of common or preferred shares and/or cash generated through property dispositions and joint venture transactions.  However, we believe our October 2005 equity offering will allow us to complete our existing development pipeline.

 

We believe that we will have access to these sources of capital to fund our long-term liquidity requirements but we cannot assure that this will be the case. Our ability to access the equity capital markets will be dependent on a number of factors as well, including general market conditions for REITs and market perceptions about us.

Cash Flows

 

Comparison of the Nine months Ended September 30, 2005 to the Nine months Ended September 30, 2004

 

Cash provided by operating activities was $9.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, an increase of $2.3 million from 2004. The increase in cash provided by operations resulted from the addition of eleven properties in connection with and subsequent to our IPO.  The increase in cash provided by operations was partially offset by cash used by decreases in the changes in accounts payable and accrued expenses between years of $4.6 million and by increases in the changes in tenant receivables and deferred costs between years totaling $11.6 million.

 

Cash used in investing activities was $124.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, a decrease of $46.5 million compared to 2004.  During the first nine months of 2005, we acquired three operating properties for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $95.4 million, approximately $15 million less than was invested in property acquisitions during the same period of the prior year.  We invested approximately $36.6 million in our development properties compared to approximately $55.1 million in the first nine months of 2004.  During 2004, we also acquired the remaining joint venture and outside minority interests in nine properties in connection with our initial public offering and related formation transactions for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $12.7 million.

 

Cash provided by financing activities was $119.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, a decrease of $45.7 million compared to 2004.  In 2004, we recognized net proceeds from our initial public offering of approximately $215.5 million.   Proceeds from loan transactions increased from $123.6 million in the first nine months of 2004 to $165.2 million in the first nine months of 2005.  These proceeds were primarily used to finance acquisition and development activity.  Loan payments decreased by $133.3 million between years largely as a result of the pay down of indebtedness totaling approximately $100 million in connection with our 2004 initial public offering.   We also paid distributions in 2005 to shareholders and unitholders totaling approximately $15.5 million and paid net distributions in 2004 to principals of the Predecessor totaling approximately $11.8 million.

 

Funds From Operations

 

Funds from Operations (“FFO”), is a widely used performance measure for real estate companies and is provided here as a supplemental measure of operating performance. We calculate FFO in accordance with the best practices described in the April 2002 National Policy Bulletin of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT), which we refer to as the White Paper. The White Paper defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

 

Given the nature of our business as a real estate owner and operator, we believe that FFO is helpful to investors as a starting point in measuring our operational performance because it excludes various items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of our operating performance such as gains (or losses) from sales of property and depreciation and amortization, which can make periodic and peer analyses of operating performance more difficult. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indicator of our financial performance, is not an alternative to cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our liquidity, and is not indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions. Our computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definitions differently than we do.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material current or future effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Impact of Recent Hurricanes and Recent Increases in Construction Costs

 

We did not incur any significant damage as a result of recent hurricanes.  Only two of our 10 Florida shopping center properties and development projects were affected by Hurricane Wilma, and the damage to those centers was minimal.  Hurricanes Katrina and Rita did not cause any damage to any of our properties.

 

As a result of the recent hurricanes significant construction activity and rising oil prices, the cost of raw materials, labor and other elements of our construction activities has increased in recent months.  While we expect construction costs will continue to increase in the coming months, we presently do not believe such increases will have a materially adverse impact on our development activities as over 65% of the total estimated costs of our current development pipeline have already been incurred and a portion of the remaining costs are subject to existing contracts.  In addition, we mitigate the impact on our business of rising construction costs though value engineering, guaranteed contracts and pre-purchases of materials, and regularly adjust our analysis of possible future development opportunities to take into account, among other things, anticipated construction costs.

 

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Our future income, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments depend upon prevailing interest rates.  Market risk refers to the risk of loss from adverse changes in interest rates of debt instruments of similar maturities and terms.

 

Market Risk Related to Fixed Rate Debt

 

We had approximately $434.7 million of outstanding consolidated indebtedness as of September 30, 2005 (inclusive of net premiums on acquired debt of $3.1 million).  During the first nine months of 2005, we entered into interest rate swaps totaling $65 million to hedge variable cash flows associated with existing variable rate debt.  Including the effects of these swaps, our fixed and variable rate debt would have been approximately $269.3 million (62%) and $162.3 million (38%), respectively, of our total consolidated indebtedness at September 30, 2005.  Reflecting our interest in unconsolidated debt, our fixed and variable rate debt would have been 63% and 37%, respectively, of our total indebtedness at September 30, 2005.

 

Based on the amount of our fixed rate debt, a 100 basis point increase in market interest rates would result in a decrease in its fair value of approximately $9.6 million. A 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates would result in an increase in the fair value of our fixed rate debt of approximately $10.3 million. A 100 basis point increase or decrease in interest rates on our variable rate debt as of September 30, 2005 would increase or decrease our annual cash flow by approximately $1.6 million.

 

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of September 30, 2005 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.  However, we completed our initial public offering in August 2004 and, in conjunction with being a public company, we are in the process of reviewing our policies and procedures on internal control over financial reporting in anticipation of the requirement that we comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005.

AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO

REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

 

THIS AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT (“Amendment”), is entered into as of August 29, 2005, by and among Kite Realty Group Trust, a real estate investment trust organized under the laws of Maryland (the “Company”), Brentwood Holdings, LLC, a limited liability organized under the laws of Indiana (“Brentwood”), KMI Holdings, LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of Indiana, Alvin E.  Kite, Jr., John A. Kite, Paul W. Kite, Thomas K. McGowan, Daniel R. Sink, George F. McMannis, IV, Mark Jenkins, C. Kenneth Kite and David Grieve.

 

WHEREAS, the parties hereto other than Brentwood have entered into a registration rights agreement, dated as of August 16, 2004 (the “Original Registration Rights Agreement”);

WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of that certain contribution agreement, dated as of March 31, 2005, by and among Kite Realty Group, L.P., a limited liability partnership organized under the laws of Delaware (“Kite Realty”), Brentwood and the other parties thereto (the “Contribution Agreement”), the Company agreed to amend the Original Registration Rights Agreement in order to provide Brentwood with registration rights that either, at the option of the Company (i) register the issuance of REIT Common Shares (as defined in the Original Registration Rights Agreement) received upon redemption of the Class A units of limited partnership interest in Kite Realty issued pursuant to the Contribution Agreement (“Units”), or (ii) register the resale of the REIT Common Shares issuable upon redemption of the Units; and

WHEREAS, the parties desire to amend the Original Registration Rights Agreement to provide Brentwood with the registration rights contemplated under the Contribution Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, in consideration of the foregoing, the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are acknowledged, hereby agree as follows:

 

SECTION 1.           AMENDMENTS TO THE ORIGINAL REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT

 

1.1   Addition of Brentwood .  Effective as of the date hereof, the Original Registration Rights Agreement is hereby amended to add Brentwood as a party thereto.

 

1.2  Addition of Brentwood as a Contributor .  Effective as of the date hereof, the Original Registration Rights Agreement is hereby amended to add Brentwood (and its successors and assigns permitted under Section 7.3 of the Registration Rights Agreement) to the definition of “Contributors” therein.

 



 

1.3  Schedule A .  Effective as of the date hereof, the Original Registration Rights Agreement is hereby amended by replacing Schedule A attached thereto in its entirety with Schedule A attached to this Amendment.

 

1.4  References to Agreement .  Each reference to “this Agreement,” “hereof,” “herein,” “hereby,” or words of like import referring to the Original Registration Rights Agreement shall mean and be a reference to the Original Registration Rights Agreement as amended by this Amendment, and as may be further amended, modified, supplemented or restated after the date hereof in accordance with the terms thereof.

 

1.5  KMI Holdings, LLC .  The parties acknowledge and agree that KMI Holdings, LLC, which distributed all of the Units received by KMI Holdings, LLC in connection with the Company’s initial public offering in August 2004 to its members and no longer owns any Units, is no longer a party to the Registration Rights Agreement.

 

SECTION 2.           MISCELLANEOUS

 

2.1  Effect on Original .  Except as expressly provided herein, the provisions of the Original Registration Rights Agreement shall remain unchanged and continue in full force and effect.

 

2.2  Definitions .  Unless the context otherwise requires, or unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Amendment shall have the respective meanings specified in the Original Registration Rights Agreement.

 

2.3  Notices .  Any notice or demand which must or may be given under this Amendment or by law shall be given in accordance with Section 7.4 of the Original Registration Rights Agreement.  For the purposes of Section 7.4 of the Original Registration Rights Agreement, any notice to be delivered to Brentwood shall be delivered to Brentwood at the following address: c/o Kite Realty Group Trust, 30 S. Meridian Street, Suite 1100, Indianapolis, Indiana 46204, or to any such other address or addresses as Brentwood may from time to time specify in compliance with the Original Registration Rights Agreement.  Any facsimile transmission delivered to Brentwood shall be directed to: c/o Kite Realty Group Trust, facsimile number: 317-577-5605.

 

2.4  Governing Law .  This Amendment, the rights and obligations of the parties hereto, and any claims or disputes relating thereto, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland, but not including the choice of law rules thereof.

 

2.5  Headings .  Section and subsection headings contained in this Amendment are inserted for convenience of reference only, shall not be deemed to be a part of this Amendment for any purpose, and shall not in any way define or affect the meaning, construction or scope of any of the provisions hereof.

2.6  Pronouns .  All pronouns and any variations thereof shall be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, neuter, singular or plural, as the identity of the person or entity may require.

 

2.7  Execution in Counterparts .  To facilitate execution, this Amendment may be executed and delivered in as many counterparts as may be required. It shall not be necessary that the signature of or on behalf of each party appears on each counterpart, but it shall be sufficient that the signature of or on behalf of each party appears on one or more of the counterparts. All counterparts shall collectively constitute a single agreement. It shall not be necessary in any proof of this Amendment to produce or account for more than a number of counterparts containing the respective signatures of or on behalf of all of the parties.

 

2.8  Severability .  If fulfillment of any provision of this Amendment, at the time such fulfillment shall be due, shall transcend the limit of validity prescribed by law, then the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the limit of such validity; and if any clause or provision contained in this Amendment operates or would operate to invalidate this Amendment, in whole or in part, then such clause or provision only shall be held ineffective, as though not herein contained, and the remainder of this Amendment shall remain operative and in full force and effect.
