BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 28, 2014-- Boston Properties, Inc. (NYSE: BXP), a real estate investment trust, reported results today for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2013.

Results for the quarter ended December 31, 2013

Funds from Operations (FFO) for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 were $197.6 million, or $1.29 per share basic and $1.29 per share diluted. This compares to FFO for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 of $192.5 million, or $1.27 per share basic and $1.27 per share diluted. The weighted average number of basic and diluted shares outstanding totaled 152,798,258 and 153,900,104, respectively, for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 and 151,005,547 and 152,708,254, respectively, for the quarter ended December 31, 2012.

The Company’s reported FFO of $1.29 per share diluted was greater than the guidance previously provided of $1.23-$1.25 per share. The Company’s reported FFO includes the following items, among others, that were not reflected in the prior guidance: $0.02 per share of improvement in portfolio operations, $0.02 per share of better than expected development and management services fees and $0.01 per share of less than expected general and administrative expenses.

Net income available to common shareholders was $88.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2013, compared to $65.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2012. Net income available to common shareholders per share (EPS) for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 was $0.58 basic and $0.58 on a diluted basis. This compares to EPS for the fourth quarter of 2012 of $0.43 basic and $0.43 on a diluted basis.

Results for the year ended December 31, 2013

FFO for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $751.5 million, or $4.94 per share basic and $4.91 per share diluted. This compares to FFO for the year ended December 31, 2012 of $741.4 million, or $4.94 per share basic and $4.90 per share diluted. The weighted average number of basic and diluted shares outstanding totaled 152,200,936 and 153,741,863, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 150,119,947 and 152,055,620, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Net income available to common shareholders was $741.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to $289.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. Net income available to common shareholders per share (EPS) for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $4.87 basic and $4.86 on a diluted basis. This compares to EPS for the year ended December 31, 2012 of $1.93 basic and $1.92 on a diluted basis.

The reported results are unaudited and there can be no assurance that the results will not vary from the final information for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2013. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of these reported results have been made.

As of December 31, 2013, the Company’s portfolio consisted of 175 properties, comprised primarily of Class A office space, one hotel, three residential properties and four retail properties, aggregating approximately 44.4 million square feet, including nine properties under construction totaling 2.9 million square feet. In addition, the Company has structured parking for vehicles containing approximately 15.4 million square feet. The overall percentage of leased space for the 163 properties in service (excluding the two in-service residential properties and the hotel) as of December 31, 2013 was 93.4%.

Significant events during the fourth quarter included:

On October 9, 2013, the Company completed the sale of a 45% ownership interest in its Times Square Tower property for a gross sale price of $684.0 million in cash. Net cash proceeds totaled approximately $673.1 million, after the payment of transaction costs. In connection with the sale, the Company formed a joint venture with the buyer and will provide customary property management and leasing services to the joint venture. Times Square Tower is an approximately 1,246,000 net rentable square foot Class A office tower located in New York City. The transaction did not qualify as a sale of real estate for financial reporting purposes as the Company will continue to control the joint venture and will therefore continue to account for the property on a consolidated basis in its financial statements. The Company has accounted for the transaction as an equity transaction and has recognized noncontrolling interest in its consolidated balance sheets equal to 45% of the carrying value of the total equity of the property immediately prior to the transaction. The difference between the net cash proceeds received and the noncontrolling interest recognized, which difference totals approximately $429.6 million, has not been reflected as a gain on sale of real estate in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and has instead been reflected as an increase to additional paid-in capital in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
On October 29, 2013, the Company entered into a lease agreement with NRG Energy for a build-to-suit project with approximately 130,000 net rentable square feet of Class A office space located in Princeton, New Jersey. The Company expects that the building will be complete and available for occupancy during 2016.
On October 29, 2013, a joint venture in which the Company has a 50% interest exercised an option to extend the maturity date to November 17, 2014 of the construction financing collateralized by its Annapolis Junction Building Six property. The construction financing totaling approximately $14.0 million bears interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.65% per annum and was scheduled to mature on November 17, 2013. Annapolis Junction Building Six is a Class A office property with approximately 119,000 net rentable square feet located in Annapolis, Maryland.
On November 15, 2013, the Company partially placed in-service The Avant at Reston Town Center development project comprised of 359 apartment units and retail space aggregating approximately 355,000 square feet located in Reston, Virginia. The retail space totaling approximately 26,000 net rentable square feet is 100% leased and the residential units are currently 15% leased.
On December 2, 2013, the Company announced that its Board of Directors declared a special cash dividend of $2.25 per common share payable on January 29, 2014 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 31, 2013. The decision to declare a special dividend was primarily a result of the sale of a 45% interest in the Company’s Times Square Tower property in October 2013. The Board of Directors did not make any change in the Company's policy with respect to regular quarterly dividends. The payment of the regular quarterly dividend of $0.65 per share and the special dividend of $2.25 per share will result in a total payment of $2.90 per share payable on January 29, 2014. Holders of common units of limited partnership interest in Boston Properties Limited Partnership, the Company’s Operating Partnership, as of the close of business on December 31, 2013 will receive the same total distribution, payable on January 29, 2014. Holders of Series Two Preferred Units of limited partnership interest will participate in the special cash dividend (separately from their regular February 2014 distribution) on an as-converted basis in connection with their regular May 2014 distribution payment as provided in the Operating Partnership's partnership agreement.
On December 20, 2013, the Company completed the sale of its 10 & 20 Burlington Mall Road property located in Burlington, Massachusetts for a sale price of approximately $30.0 million. Net cash proceeds totaled approximately $29.4 million, resulting in a gain on sale of approximately $20.5 million. 10 & 20 Burlington Mall Road consists of two Class A office properties aggregating approximately 152,000 net rentable square feet.
On December 20, 2013, the Company completed the sale of its One Preserve Parkway property located in Rockville, Maryland for a sale price of approximately $61.3 million. Net cash proceeds totaled approximately $59.9 million, resulting in a gain on sale of approximately $5.9 million. One Preserve Parkway is a Class A office property totaling approximately 184,000 net rentable square feet.

Transactions completed subsequent to December 31, 2013:

On January 27, 2014, the Company’s Compensation Committee approved the 2014 Multi-Year, Long-Term Incentive Program (the “2014 MYLTIP”) as a performance-based component of the Company’s overall compensation program. The Company currently expects that under the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation,” the 2014 MYLTIP will have an aggregate value of approximately $13.1 million, which amount will generally be amortized into earnings over the four-year plan period under the graded vesting method and has been reflected in the 2014 guidance below.

Reporting Change:

Beginning in the third quarter of 2013, the Company revised the presentation of costs to operate its San Francisco and Princeton regional offices. These expenses, which totaled approximately $2.1 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and approximately $8.1 million and $7.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, were previously included in Rental Operating Expenses and are now included in General and Administrative Expenses for all periods presented.

EPS and FFO per Share Guidance:

The Company’s guidance for the first quarter and full year 2014 for EPS (diluted) and FFO per share (diluted) is set forth and reconciled below. The estimates for the full year 2014, when compared to the Company’s prior guidance, reflect, among other things, a decrease in FFO from the sales of 10 & 20 Burlington Mall Road and One Preserve Parkway in December 2013 of ($0.04) per share, partially offset by expected improvement in the Company’s same property portfolio. In addition, and except as described below, the estimates reflect management’s view of current and future market conditions, including assumptions with respect to rental rates, occupancy levels and the earnings impact of the events referenced in this release and otherwise referenced during the conference call referred to below. The estimates do not include possible future gains or losses or the impact on operating results from other possible future property acquisitions or dispositions, other possible capital markets activity or possible future impairment charges. EPS estimates may be subject to fluctuations as a result of several factors, including changes in the recognition of depreciation and amortization expense and any gains or losses associated with disposition activity. The Company is not able to assess at this time the potential impact of these factors on projected EPS. By definition, FFO does not include real estate-related depreciation and amortization, impairment losses or gains or losses associated with disposition activities. There can be no assurance that the Company’s actual results will not differ materially from the estimates set forth below.

	First Quarter 2014					Full Year 2014
	Low		-	High		Low		-	High
Projected EPS (diluted)	$	0.25	-	$	0.27	$	1.40	-	$	1.53

	(1)	Pursuant to the revised definition of Funds from Operations adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), we calculate Funds from Operations, or “FFO,” by adjusting net income (loss) attributable to Boston Properties, Inc. (computed in accordance with GAAP, including non-recurring items) for gains (or losses) from sales of properties, impairment losses on depreciable real estate of consolidated real estate, impairment losses on investments in unconsolidated joint ventures driven by a measurable decrease in the fair value of depreciable real estate held by the unconsolidated joint ventures, real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure. The use of FFO, combined with the required primary GAAP presentations, has been fundamentally beneficial in improving the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and making comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. Management generally considers FFO to be a useful measure for reviewing our comparative operating and financial performance because, by excluding gains and losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, impairment losses and real estate asset depreciation and amortization (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO can help one compare the operating performance of a company's real estate between periods or as compared to different companies.

		Our computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently.

		FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income attributable to Boston Properties, Inc. (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of our performance. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, and is not a measure of liquidity or an indicator of our ability to make cash distributions. We believe that to further understand our performance, FFO should be compared with our reported net income attributable to Boston Properties, Inc. and considered in addition to cash flows in accordance with GAAP, as presented in our consolidated financial statements.

	(2)	Real estate depreciation and amortization consists of depreciation and amortization from the Consolidated Statements of Operations of $154,475, $118,752, $560,637 and $445,875, our share of unconsolidated joint venture real estate depreciation and amortization of $4,633, $21,778, $46,214 and $90,076 and depreciation and amortization from discontinued operations of $934, $1,798, $4,760 and $8,169, less corporate-related depreciation and amortization of $336, $299, $1,259 and $1,367 for the three months and year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

	(3)	Consists of the portion of income from unconsolidated joint ventures related to (1) the gain on sale of Eighth Avenue and 46th Street totaling approximately $11.3 million and (2) the gain on sale of 125 West 55th Street totaling approximately $43.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2013. Consists of the portion of income from unconsolidated joint ventures related to the gain on sale of 300 Billerica Road totaling approximately $0.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2012.

	(4)	The gains on consolidation of joint ventures consisted of (1) 767 Fifth Avenue (The General Motors Building) totaling approximately $359.5 million and (2) the Company's Value-Added Fund's Mountain View properties totaling approximately $26.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2013.

	(5)	Excludes approximately $2.0 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2013 of income allocated to the holders of Series Two Preferred Units to account for their right to participate on an as-converted basis in the special dividend that was primarily the result of the sale of a 45% interest in the Company's Times Square Tower property.
