Retail Value Inc. Reports First Quarter 2021 Operating Results

Retail Value Inc. (NYSE: RVI) today announced operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.

Results for the Quarter and Recent Activity

  • First quarter net income attributable to common shareholders was $3.2 million, or $0.15 per diluted share, as compared to net loss of $13.1 million, or $0.66 per share, in the year-ago period. The period-over-period increase in net income is primarily attributable to reduced impairment charges, interest expense and debt extinguishment costs partly offset by reduced rental income stemming from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and asset sales.
  • First quarter operating funds from operations attributable to common shareholders (“Operating FFO” or “OFFO”) was $18.6 million, or $0.89 per diluted share, compared to $20.3 million, or $1.03 per diluted share, in the year-ago period. The period-over-period decrease in OFFO is primarily attributable to the impact of the COVID‑19 pandemic and asset sales partly offset by lower interest expense.
  • The Continental U.S. leased rate was 86.7% at March 31, 2021 as compared to 88.9% at December 31, 2020. The decrease in the leased rate primarily related to the expiration and termination of two dark anchor tenant leases in the first quarter of 2021.
  • The Puerto Rico leased rate was 88.3% at March 31, 2021 as compared to 89.2% at December 31, 2020 primarily due to the legal resolution and termination of dark non-paying tenants.
  • Exercised its first extension option under its mortgage loan agreement in which the loan’s maturity was extended to March 9, 2022. In addition, extended the revolving credit facility maturity date to February 9, 2022.
  • In April 2021, sold four properties (Marketplace of Brown Deer, Noble Town Center, Plaza Vega Baja and Uptown Solon) for a gross sales price of $38.9 million. In April 2021, net proceeds from the sale of Marketplace of Brown Deer along with unrestricted cash on hand aggregating $23.6 million were used to repay the mortgage loan. The majority of the net proceeds from the other three asset sales are expected to repay $24.9 million of the mortgage loan in May 2021.

  • For the total portfolio, 99% of tenants were open for business as of April 23, 2021 (based on average base rents). In Puerto Rico, while 99% of the Company’s tenants were open for business as of April 23, 2021, most remain subject to significant capacity and operating restrictions.
  • The Company calculates the aggregate percentage of rents paid for assets owned as of March 31, 2021, by comparing the amount of tenant payments received as of the date presented to the amount billed to tenants during the period, which billed amount includes abated rents, rents subject to deferral arrangements and rents owing from bankrupt tenants that were in possession of the space and billed. For the purposes of reporting the percentage of aggregate base rents collected for a given period, when rents subject to deferral arrangements are later paid, those payments are allocated to the period in which the rent was originally owed.
  • As of April 23, 2021, agreed upon rent deferral arrangements that remain unpaid represented approximately 5% of second quarter 2020 rents, 4% of third quarter 2020 rents and 3% of fourth quarter 2020 rents. There were no rent deferral arrangements that remain unpaid with respect to first quarter 2021 rents. The Company granted abatements to tenants representing approximately 6% of second quarter 2020 rents and 1% of third quarter 2020 rents. There were no significant abatements of fourth quarter 2020 rents or first quarter 2021 rents.
  • At March 31, 2021, the balance sheet reflects $2.1 million of net deferred rents, a majority of which is expected to be repaid in 2021.
  • During the first quarter of 2021, the Company’s rental revenue and NOI benefited from $1.7 million of payments related to 2020 rental income received from cash-basis tenants.

Property Net Operating Income (NOI) Projection

The Company has updated its projection of 2021 NOI. The Company projects, based on the assumptions below, 2021 property level net operating income (NOI) to be as follows:

Portfolio

 

 

NOI Projection

Continental U.S.

 

 

$35 – $40 million

Puerto Rico

 

 

$48 – $54 million

These Projections:

  • Exclude all properties sold to date and assume all properties owned by the Company on May 4, 2021 are held through year end;
  • Reflect payment of property management fees;
  • Assume tenant collections at 100% for second quarter of 2021 through fourth quarter of 2021 (as compared to first quarter 2021 rent collections of 98% and 94% for the continental U.S. and Puerto Rico portfolios, respectively) and
  • Assume no reserve reversals related to 2020 rents for the second quarter of 2021 through fourth quarter of 2021.

Because these projections are based on assumptions that are subject to change, including, without limitation, the Company’s actual tenant collections, they should not be viewed as guidance.

Non-GAAP Measures

Funds from Operations (“FFO”) is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure used as a standard in the real estate industry and is a widely accepted measure of real estate investment trust (“REIT”) performance. Management believes that both FFO and Operating FFO provide additional indicators of the financial performance of a REIT. The Company also believes that FFO and Operating FFO more appropriately measure the core operations of the Company and provide benchmarks to its peer group.

FFO is generally defined and calculated by the Company as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”)) adjusted to exclude (i) gains and losses from disposition of real estate property and related investments, which are presented net of taxes, if any, (ii) impairment charges on real estate property and related investments and (iii) certain non-cash items. These non-cash items principally include real property depreciation and amortization of intangibles. The Company’s calculation of FFO is consistent with the definition of FFO provided by NAREIT. The Company calculates Operating FFO by excluding certain non-operating charges and income. Operating FFO is useful to investors as the Company removes non-comparable charges and income to analyze the results of its operations and assess performance of the core operating real estate portfolio. Other real estate companies may calculate FFO and Operating FFO in a different manner.

The Company also uses net operating income (“NOI”), a non-GAAP financial measure, as a supplemental performance measure. NOI is calculated as property revenues less property-related expenses. The Company believes NOI provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level and, when compared across periods, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs and acquisition and disposition activity on an unleveraged basis.

FFO, Operating FFO and NOI do not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, are not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as alternatives to net income computed in accordance with GAAP as indicators of the Company’s operating performance or as alternatives to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in this release herein. Reconciliation of 2021 projected NOI to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is not provided because the Company is unable to provide such reconciliation without unreasonable effort.

Safe Harbor

RVI considers portions of the information in this press release to be forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, both as amended, with respect to the Company's expectation for future periods.

For this purpose, any statements contained herein that are not historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements.

For additional factors that could cause the results of the Company to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements, please refer to the Company’s most recent report on Forms 10-K and 10-Q.
