Hudson Pacific Properties Reports Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results

Oct. 26, 2021

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 26, 2021--Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. (the "Company" or "Hudson Pacific") (NYSE: HPP) today announced financial results for the third quarter 2021.

Management Comments & Industry Outlook

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

"Hudson Pacific remains very well positioned as we continue to navigate the pandemic and look to a return to office for most of our tenants by year-end or early 2022. Our studio and office tenants continue to pay rent and any deferrals. After completing nearly 320,000 square feet of office leasing this quarter with positive rent spreads, our stabilized office portfolio leased percentage remains north of 92%, and our remaining 2021 expirations equate to less than 2% of our annualized base rent. A further sign of our portfolio's resiliency, we achieved robust double digit same-store office and studio cash NOI growth-nearly 11% and 46%, respectively.

"In addition to office leasing, we have been very focused on the continued expansion of our studio portfolio, and successfully executed on multiple transactions in the third quarter. We announced two new Sunset Studios locations-our Sunset Glenoaks Studios development in the Los Angeles area and our Sunset Waltham Cross Studios development in the UK. We also purchased Star Waggons and Zio Studio Services in two separate transactions, enabling us to provide enhanced services to our studio clients and capture additional on- and off-lot production-related revenue."

The proposed development, which will be known as Sunset Waltham Cross Studios and is subject to planning permission, will transform the site into a world-class film and television studio campus with an expected total investment of approximately 700 million.

Expanded studio production services platform

In separate transactions, on August 16 and 31 respectively, the Company acquired Zio Studio Services and Star Waggons, two industry-leading companies that provide transportation and logistics services to studio productions, for a combined $222 million (before closing adjustments and including an estimated first year earnout payment). Star Waggons and Zio Studio Services collectively comprise a fleet of more than 1,100 luxury location trailers, specialized vehicles and other transportation assets and related equipment.

Development

Announced plans to build Los Angeles-area studio facility

On July 29, Hudson Pacific and Blackstone announced plans to develop through a 50/50 joint venture a fully entitled, state-of-the-art, purpose-built studio facility in Sun Valley, California. The approximately 241,000-square-foot, seven-stage facility, which will be known as Sunset Glenoaks Studios, is expected to start construction in fourth quarter 2021 with delivery in third quarter 2023, and will represent a total $170-190 million investment.

Unveiled plans for hybrid mass timber office development

On September 23, Hudson Pacific submitted plans for approval of a 16-story hybrid mass timber office and retail development at Bentall Centre called Burrard Exchange. Under the proposed plans, approximately 450,000 square feet of office and retail space would be added within the Bentall Centre campus, creating one of the tallest exposed mass timber office buildings in North America on one of the last large development sites in Downtown Vancouver.

Financings

Refinanced Hollywood Media Portfolio

On August 9, the Company refinanced its mortgage loan secured by the Hollywood Media Portfolio. The new loan replaces the prior $900 million loan bearing LIBOR plus 2.15% per annum with a $1.1 billion loan bearing LIBOR plus 1.17%. The new loan has a two-year term from the first payment date, with three one-year extension options, subject to certain requirements, and is non-recourse, except as to customary non-recourse carve-outs. The Company purchased approximately $209.8 million of new loan, which bears interest at a weighted average rate of LIBOR plus 1.55% per annum.

Balance Sheet

As of the end of the third quarter 2021:

* $3.2 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 43.2%. * Approximately $0.6 billion of total liquidity comprised of: $110.5 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents; $300.0 million of undrawn capacity under the unsecured revolving credit facility; and $194.4 million of undrawn capacity under the construction loan secured by One Westside and 10850 Pico. * Investment grade credit rated with 68.1% unsecured and 77.3% fixed-rate debt and a weighted average maturity of 4.6 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.

Activities Subsequent to Third Quarter 2021

Earned top recognition in 2021 GRESB Assessment

On October 1, Hudson Pacific received top honors in the 2021 Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB(r)) Real Estate Assessment for its ESG accomplishments. In addition to achieving Green Star and highest 5-Star ratings for a third consecutive year, Hudson Pacific was recognized as an Office Sector Leader for the Americas, and ranked first among the 22 companies in this category for the Development Benchmark. The Company also received an "A" Public Disclosure score, ranking first among U.S. office companies.

2021 Outlook

The Company is narrowing 2021 full-year and providing fourth-quarter guidance in the range of $1.95 to $1.99 per diluted share, excluding specified items, and $0.48 to $0.50 per diluted share, excluding specified items, respectively. Specified items for the full year, including those referenced in the Company's second quarter SEC filings and this earnings release, include $7.4 million of transaction-related expenses and $3.2 million of the Company's share of costs associated with the early extinguishment of debt. There are no specified items in connection with fourth quarter guidance.

Note the Company incurred $1.4 million of prior-period supplemental property tax expenses as noted in its first and second quarter SEC filings, nearly all of which was offset by the prior-period supplemental property tax reimbursement of $1.3 million received during the third quarter. As a result, the Company is not identifying a specified item related to prior-period property taxes for purposes of 2021 full-year 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 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.
