Development and Redevelopment Activity

At the end of the third quarter, the Company’s under construction and recently completed development pipeline totaled $1.0 billion. After including the Company’s wholly-owned and joint venture stabilized, non-mature developments, the pipeline was expected to produce a weighted average spread between estimated stabilized construction yields and current market cap rates toward the upper end of the Company’s 150 to 200 basis point targeted range. The under construction and recently completed pipeline was 73 percent funded at quarter end. Of the remaining $733 million in development projects left to complete at the Company’s pro-rata ownership interest, $183 million is expected to be completed in 2014, $326 million in 2015, $162 million in 2016 and the remainder in 2017.

One new development was started during the third quarter. The Residences at 2801 Kelvin, a 381-home community located in Irvine, CA with a total budgeted cost of $125 million, is being developed in a 50/50 joint venture with MetLife. The project is scheduled for completion in early 2017.

Transactional Activity

During the quarter, the Company disposed of three communities containing 963 homes in Orlando, FL and Norfolk, VA for approximately $97 million in total proceeds. Combined, the three sales were transacted at a weighted average 6.2 percent cash flow cap rate, had a weighted average monthly rent per occupied home of $1,050 and were 20 years old on average. Additionally, the Company sold a small commercial property located in Glendale, CA for $11 million in July 2014.

Later in the third quarter, the Company completed two 1031 acquisitions in Seattle. The communities, Lightbox and Waterscape at Juanita Village, were acquired for $121 million at a weighted average, stabilized cash flow cap rate of 4.5 percent. Both communities are newly constructed and near 90 percent occupied. Lightbox, located in the University district of Seattle and adjacent to the Company’s Kennedy community, contains 162 homes. Waterscape, located adjacent to Lake Washington in Kirkland is positioned near Google’s expanding Seattle campus, and has 196 homes.

Joint Venture / Partnership Investment Activity

As previously discussed in this press release, the Company started a $125 million development project in Irvine, CA in a 50/50 joint venture with MetLife during the quarter.

Capital Markets

During the third quarter, the Company issued approximately 3.4 million shares through its At-the-Market equity program at an average gross price of $29.95. Net of fees, the shares were issued at an average price of $29.36 for proceeds of approximately $100 million. Proceeds will primarily fund the Company’s accretive $92 million Steele Creek participating loan investment located in Denver, CO.

As previously announced, on July 16, 2014, the Company received proceeds totaling $36 million from the prepayment of a “B” note it held. This resulted in a net gain of approximately $8.4 million, or $0.03 of FFO per share, which was recognized during the quarter. The gain was excluded from FFO as Adjusted and AFFO per share results.

Balance Sheet

During the quarter, Moody’s Investor Services upgraded the Company’s senior unsecured credit rating to Baa1 and S&P Rating Services changed its outlook for the Company’s senior unsecured credit rating to BBB, Positive.

At September 30, 2014, the Company had $755 million in availability through a combination of cash and undrawn capacity on its credit facility.

The Company’s total indebtedness at September 30, 2014 was $3.6 billion. The Company ended the quarter with fixed-rate debt representing 85 percent of its total debt, a total blended interest rate of 4.0 percent and a weighted average maturity of 4.5 years. The Company’s leverage was 39.2 percent versus 39.0 percent a year ago, net debt-to-EBITDA was 6.7x versus 7.0x a year ago and fixed charge coverage was 3.4x versus 3.2x a year ago.

Dividend

As previously announced, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly dividend on its common stock for the third quarter of 2014 in the amount of $0.26 per share. The dividend will be paid in cash on October 31, 2014 to UDR common stock shareholders of record as of October 10, 2014. The third quarter 2014 dividend will represent the 168th consecutive quarterly dividend paid by the Company on its common stock.

On an annualized declared basis, the Company’s $1.04 per share 2014 dividend represents an 11 percent increase versus 2013.

Outlook

For the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company has established the following guidance ranges:

Current

FFO per share $0.38 to $0.40
FFO as Adjusted per share $0.38 to $0.40
AFFO per share $0.33 to $0.35

For the full-year 2014, the Company has increased its earnings guidance ranges by $0.01 at the midpoints due to a variety of items. Below are the full-year guidance ranges:

FFO per share $1.54 to $1.56 $1.52 to $1.56
FFO as Adjusted per share $1.51 to $1.53 $1.49 to $1.53

For the full-year 2014, the Company has increased its same-store revenue growth guidance range which is offset by higher expected same-store expense growth. Same-store NOI growth expectations remain unchanged at the midpoint although the range was tightened. Below are the full-year guidance ranges:

UDR, Inc.
Definitions and Reconciliations
September 30, 2014
(Unaudited)
Funds From Operations ("FFO"): The Company defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate or of investments in non-consolidated investees that are driven by measurable decreases in the fair value of depreciable real estate held by the investee, gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable property, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. This definition conforms with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trust's definition issued in April 2002 and is comparable to FFO, diluted in Attachment 2. In the computation of diluted FFO, OP units, unvested restricted stock, stock options, and the shares of Series E Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock are dilutive; therefore, they are included in the diluted share count.
Activities of our taxable REIT subsidiary (TRS), RE3, include development and land entitlement. From time to time, we develop and subsequently sell a TRS property which results in a short-term use of funds that produces a profit that differs from the traditional long-term investment in real estate for REITs. We believe that the inclusion of these TRS gains in FFO is consistent with the standards established by NAREIT as the short-term investment is incidental to our main business. TRS gains on sales, net of taxes, are defined as net sales proceeds less a tax provision and the gross investment basis of the asset before accumulated depreciation.
Management considers FFO a useful metric for investors as the Company uses FFO in evaluating property acquisitions and its operating performance and believes that FFO should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income and cash flow as a measure of the Company's activities in accordance with GAAP. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs. A reconciliation from net income attributable to UDR, Inc. to FFO is provided on Attachment 2.
Held For Disposition Communities: The Company defines Held for Disposition Communities as those communities that were held for sale as of the end of the most recent quarter.
Interest Coverage Ratio: The Company defines Interest Coverage Ratio as net income, excluding the impact of interest expense, real estate depreciation and amortization of wholly owned and joint venture communities, other depreciation and amortization, noncontrolling interests, net gain on the sale of depreciable property, RE3 income tax, divided by total interest.
Management considers interest coverage ratio a useful metric for investors as it provides ratings agencies, investors and lending partners with a widely-used measure of the Company’s ability to service its debt obligations as well as compare leverage against that of its peer REITs. A reconciliation of the components that comprise interest coverage ratio is provided on Attachment 4(C) of the Company's quarterly supplemental disclosure.

Other income/expense (563)(1,310)
Total Joint Venture NOI at UDR's Pro-Rata Ownership Interest$18,303$50,014
JV Return on Equity ("ROE"): The Company defines JV ROE as the pro rata share of property NOI plus property and asset management fee revenue less interest expense, divided by the average of beginning and ending equity capital for the quarter.
Management considers ROE a useful metric for investors as it provides a widely used measure of how well the Company is investing its capital on a leveraged basis.
JV Return on Invested Capital ("ROIC"): The Company defines JV ROIC as the pro rata share of property NOI plus property and asset management fee revenue divided by the average of beginning and ending invested capital for the quarter.
Management considers ROIC a useful metric for investors as it provides a widely used measure of how well the Company is investing its capital on an unleveraged basis.
Net Debt to EBITDA: The Company defines net debt to EBITDA as total debt net of cash and cash equivalents divided by EBITDA. EBITDA is defined as net income, excluding the impact of interest expense, real estate depreciation and amortization of wholly owned and other joint venture communities, other depreciation and amortization, noncontrolling interests, net gain on the sale of depreciable property, and RE3 income tax.
Management considers net debt to EBITDA a useful metric for investors as it provides ratings agencies, investors and lending partners with a widely-used measure of the Company’s ability to service its debt obligations as well as compare leverage against that of its peer REITs. A reconciliation between net income and EBITDA is provided on Attachment 4(C) of the Company's quarterly supplemental disclosure.
Net Operating Income (“NOI”): The Company defines NOI as rental income less direct property rental expenses. Rental income represents gross market rent less adjustments for concessions, vacancy loss and bad debt. Rental expenses include real estate taxes, insurance, personnel, utilities, repairs and maintenance, administrative and marketing. Excluded from NOI is property management expense which is calculated as 2.75% of property revenue to cover the regional supervision and accounting costs related to consolidated property operations, and land rent.
Management considers NOI a useful metric for investors as it is a more meaningful representation of a community’s continuing operating performance than net income as it is prior to corporate-level expense allocations, general and administrative costs, capital structure and depreciation and amortization and is a widely used input, along with capitalization rates, in the determination of real estate valuations. A reconciliation from net income attributable to UDR, Inc. to NOI is provided below.

Effective January 1, 2014, UDR prospectively adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, for all communities not previously sold or classified as held for sale. ASU 2014-08 incorporates into the definition of a discontinued operation a requirement that a disposition represent a strategic shift in an entity’s operations, which resulted in UDR no longer classifying the sale of communities as a discontinued operation.

2014 adjustment relates to estimated damages at our Rosebeach community in California as a result of the earthquake in March 2014. 2013 adjustment primarily represents the portion of Hurricane Sandy insurance recoveries in 2013 that relate to the $9.3 million in charges added back to FFO as Adjusted in 4Q 2012. The difference between the casualty-related recoveries reflected on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and the adjustment above represents the amount of 2013 business interruption recoveries during 2013. The business interruption insurance recoveries are offset by lost rental revenues from the business interruption in 2013.
