Hudson Pacific Properties Reports First Quarter 2021 Financial Results

May 05, 2021

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 05, 2021--Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. (the "Company" or "Hudson Pacific") (NYSE: HPP) today announced financial results for the first quarter 2021.

Management Comments & Industry Outlook

Victor Coleman, Hudson Pacific Properties' Chairman and CEO, said:

"With a growing percentage of the population vaccinated and case numbers declining concurrently, companies are formalizing and even accelerating plans to return to the office. We are seeing this in our conversations with current and prospective tenants, and more broadly in the increase in tenant tours and requirements across our markets. Both our first quarter leasing activity, in terms of volume, and our current leasing pipeline, that is, deals in leases, LOIs or proposals, are back on par with our long-term averages. Quarter after quarter, our rent collections are in the high-90 percent range, and we are now successfully collecting essentially all previously deferred rents due for payment.

"Our focus on thriving tech and media industries; our high-quality, growth-oriented tenants; our premier, modern portfolio; along with our ample liquidity and excellent JV partners ideally position us for a post-COVID era and beyond. We remain focused on growth. In addition to One Westside, which will deliver nearly 600,000 square feet fully pre-leased to Google in first quarter of next year, our future development pipeline totals over three million square feet, of which 40% are prime studio-related opportunities. We are also actively evaluating a number of value-add office and studio acquisition opportunities, and look forward to sharing more on this front as potential transactions progress."

Consolidated Financial & Operating Results

For first quarter 2021 compared to first quarter 2020:

* Net income attributable to common stockholders of $5.0 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, compared to net income of $10.8 million, or $0.07 per diluted share; * FFO, excluding specified items, of $73.5 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, compared to $84.6 million, or $0.54 per diluted share; Specified items consisting of a one-time, prior-period supplemental property tax expense related to ICON, CUE and Sunset Bronson of $1.1 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to transaction-related expenses of $0.1 million, or $0.00 per diluted share, and a one-time straight-line rent reserve of $2.6 million, or $0.02 per diluted share; * FFO, including specified items, of $72.5 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, compared to $81.9 million, or $0.52 per diluted share; * Total revenue increased 3.3% to $213.1 million; * Total operating expenses increased 7.4% to $179.2 million; and * Interest expense increased 14.6% to $30.3 million.

Office Segment Results

Financial & operating

For first quarter 2021 compared to first quarter 2020:

* Total revenue increased 3.1% to $192.1 million. Primary factors include: Revenue from the acquisition of 1918 Eighth, the reversal of reserves against uncollected cash rents and straight-line rent receivables for two material tenants, and lower bad debt reserves, all partially offset by lower parking revenue stemming from COVID-19 impacted occupancy, and reserves against uncollected cash rents and straight-line rent receivables for certain tenants related to COVID-19; * Operating expenses increased 4.2% to $66.6 million. Primary factors include: Expenses associated with the aforementioned acquisition of 1918 Eighth and one-time supplemental property tax expense for prior periods on ICON and CUE, all partially offset by lower variable operating expenses (i.e. utilities, janitorial, parking) due to lower COVID-19 impacted occupancy; and * Net operating income and cash net operating income for the 43 consolidated same-store office properties decreased 3.7% and increased 2.6%, respectively. Adjusted for the one-time supplemental property tax expense on ICON and CUE, net operating income and cash net operating income for the same-store office properties would have decreased by 2.9% and increased by 3.6%, respectively.

Leasing

* Stabilized and in-service office portfolios were 92.7% and 91.7% leased, respectively; and * Executed 42 new and renewal leases totaling 524,353 square feet with GAAP and cash rent growth of 12.2% and 2.4%, respectively. Note that first quarter leasing activity included two large essentially at market renewals in Palo Alto totaling approximately 250,000 square feet, as well as an approximately 35,000-square-foot expansion lease in Seattle at a slightly below market contractual rate. Adjusting for these deals as well as short-term extensions results in cash rent growth of 6.9%.

Studio Segment Results

Financial & operating

For first quarter 2021 compared to first quarter 2020:

* Total revenue increased 5.9% to $21.0 million. Primary factors include: Higher service and other revenue stemming from the resumption of production activity, largely at Sunset Gower and Sunset Las Palmas, as shelter-in-place restrictions eased; * Total operating expenses increased 7.5% to $11.5 million, primarily due to the aforementioned increase in production activity; and * Net operating income and cash net operating income for the three same-store studio properties increased 4.1% and 6.4%, respectively. Adjusted for the one-time supplemental property tax expense at Sunset Bronson, net operating income and cash net operating income for the same-store studio properties would have increased by 5.2% and 7.5%, respectively.

Leasing

* Trailing 12-month occupancy for the three same-store studio properties was 89.6%.

Leasing Activity

Executed significant leases across the portfolio

* Google renewed its 207,857-square-foot lease through November 2028 at 3400 Hillview in Palo Alto. * Company 3 signed a 70,285-square-foot lease commencing April 2021 through March 2033 at Harlow in Hollywood. * Lockheed Martin Corporation renewed its 42,899-square-foot lease through May 2026 at 3176 Porter in Palo Alto. * Amazon leased an additional 35,524 square feet at 1918 Eighth in Seattle, commencing June 2021 through September 2030.

Balance Sheet

As of the end of the first quarter 2021:

* $2.8 billion of the Company's share of unsecured and secured debt and preferred units (net of cash and cash equivalents) resulting in a leverage ratio of 39.8%. * Approximately $1.0 billion of total liquidity comprised of: $134.3 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents; $600.0 million of undrawn capacity under the unsecured revolving credit facility; and $255.6 million of undrawn capacity under the construction loan secured by One Westside and 10850 Pico. * Investment grade credit rated with 65.9% unsecured and 86.5% fixed-rate debt and a weighted average maturity of 5.5 years.

Dividend

Paid common dividend

* The Company's Board of Directors declared a dividend on its common stock of $0.25 per share, equivalent to an annual rate of $1.00 per share.

Capital Transactions

Repurchased 0.6 million shares of common stock

The Company repurchased 0.6 million shares of common stock at an average price of $23.32 per share using liquidity generated from recapitalization of the Hollywood Media Portfolio.

ESG Leadership

Pledged $20 million to address homelessness

On February 11, Hudson Pacific pledged $20 million over the next five years to increase affordable housing and support individuals and families experiencing homelessness. The comprehensive program will include both impact investments and philanthropic donations in the Company's core markets.

COVID-19 Update

Issued 2020 Corporate Responsibility Report

On April 22, Hudson Pacific published its 2020 Corporate Responsibility Report, which details the Company's accomplishments across its Better BlueprintTM focus areas of Sustainability, Health and Equity. Highlights include achieving 100% carbon neutral operations and establishing a new science-based climate target; boosting LEED, ENERGY STAR, and Fitwel certifications for the Company's in-service office portfolio to 80%, 71%, and 23%, respectively; receiving Fitwel Viral Response certification for the Company's COVID-19 response; initiating in-depth diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) training for all employees, including management; establishing a 2025 target for 15% of contractors on-site at (re)development projects to be local and/or diverse; fast-tracking over $650,000 to struggling and traditionally under-represented artists in Los Angeles through the Vibrant Cities Arts Grant program; donating over $1 million to its communities (4.6% of net earnings); and pledging $20 million over five years to invest or donate into innovative homelessness and housing solutions.

FFO Guidance

The Company is providing second quarter 2021 guidance in the range of $0.46 to $0.48 per diluted share excluding specified items. There are no specified items in connection with this guidance.

The FFO 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 events referenced in this press release and in earlier announcements. It otherwise excludes any impact from future unannounced or speculative acquisitions, dispositions, debt financings or repayments, recapitalizations, capital markets activity or similar matters. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from this estimate.

The Company does not provide a reconciliation for non-GAAP estimates on a forward-looking basis, including the information under "FFO Guidance" above, where it is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing and/or amount of various items that would impact net income attributable to common stockholders per diluted share, which is the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure. This includes, for example, acquisition costs and other non-core items that have not yet occurred, are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures provided without the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding GAAP financial measures.

Hudson Pacific calculates FFO in accordance with the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"). The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), excluding gains and losses from sales of depreciable real estate and impairment write-downs associated with depreciable real estate, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs and depreciation of non-real estate assets), adjusting for consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures. The calculation of FFO includes amortization of deferred revenue related to tenant-funded tenant improvements and excludes the depreciation of the related tenant improvement assets. Hudson Pacific believes that FFO is a useful supplemental measure of its operating performance. The exclusion from FFO of gains and losses from the sale of operating real estate assets allows investors and analysts to readily identify the operating results of the assets that form the core of the Company's activity and assists in comparing those operating results between periods. Also, because FFO is generally recognized as the industry standard for reporting the operations of REITs, it facilitates comparisons of operating performance to other REITs. However, other REITs may use different methodologies to calculate FFO, and accordingly, the Company's FFO may not be comparable to all other REITs.

Implicit in historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP is the assumption that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered presentations of operating results for real estate companies using historical cost accounting alone to be insufficient. Because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, Hudson Pacific believes that FFO along with the required GAAP presentations provides a more complete measurement of the Company's performance relative to its competitors and a more appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing and investing activities than the required GAAP presentations alone would provide. Hudson Pacific uses FFO per share to calculate annual cash bonuses for certain employees.

However, FFO should not be viewed as an alternative measure of Hudson Pacific's operating performance because it does not reflect either depreciation and amortization costs or the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of the Company's properties, which are significant economic costs and could materially impact the Company's results from operations.

Hudson Pacific evaluates performance based upon property NOI from continuing operations. NOI is not a measure of operating results or cash flows from operating activities or cash flows as measured by GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to income from continuing operations, as an indication of the Company's performance, or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity, or the Company's ability to make distributions. All companies may not calculate NOI in the same manner. Hudson Pacific considers NOI to be a useful performance measure to investors and management because when compared across periods, NOI reflects the revenues and expenses directly associated with owning and operating the Company's properties and the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs, providing a perspective not immediately apparent from income from continuing operations. Hudson Pacific calculates NOI as net income (loss) excluding corporate general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, impairments, gains/losses on sales of real estate, interest expense, transaction-related expenses and other non-operating items. Hudson Pacific defines NOI as operating revenues (including rental revenues, other property-related revenue, tenant recoveries and other operating revenues), less property-level operating expenses (which includes external management fees, if any, and property-level general and administrative expenses). NOI on a cash basis is NOI adjusted to exclude the effect of straight-line rent and other non-cash adjustments required by GAAP. Hudson Pacific believes NOI on a cash basis is helpful to investors as an additional measure of operating performance because it eliminates straight-line rent and other non-cash adjustments to revenue and expenses.
