COLONIAL PROPERTIES TRUST INC 
By Colonial Properties Trust (NYSE: CLP) announced its results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2011.
For the fourth quarter 2011, the company reported net income available to common shareholders of $9.1 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared with a net loss available to common shareholders of $7.1 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, for the same period in 2010. For 2011, the company reported net income available to common shareholders of $3.4 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, compared with a net loss available to common shareholders of $48.1 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, for the same period in 2010. The changes from the prior year are primarily attributable to an increase in net operating income (NOI) from the company's multifamily same-property communities as a result of improving rental rates, income from multifamily properties acquired in 2011, and gains recognized from commercial joint venture and multifamily asset sales.
Funds from Operations Available to Common Shareholders and Unitholders (FFO), a widely accepted measure of REIT performance, for the fourth quarter 2011 was $26.4 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, compared with $23.7 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, for the same period in 2010. FFO for the fourth quarter 2011 included a $1.2 million net gain as a result of the repurchase of Colonial Realty Limited Partnership's (CRLP) remaining 1,000,000 Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units and a $3.3 million loss contingency charge related to on-going litigation (as discussed further below). Excluding these one-time items, FFO for the quarter would have been $28.4 million, or $0.30 per diluted share. FFO for 2011 totaled $104.7 million, or $1.15 per diluted share, compared with $81.3 million, or $1.02 per diluted share, for the same period in 2010. The changes from the prior year are primarily attributable to an increase in NOI from the company's multifamily same-property communities as a result of improving rental rates and income from multifamily properties acquired in 2011.
A reconciliation of net income/loss available to common shareholders to FFO, and a reconciliation of NOI to income/loss from continuing operations, as well as definitions and statements of purpose, is included in the financial tables accompanying this press release.
"The operating momentum we established throughout the year resulted in the best percentage year-over-year same-property NOI growth in our company's history," stated Thomas H. Lowder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "As a result of our improved operating performance and our positive outlook, the Board of Trustees has voted to increase the quarterly common dividend by $0.03 per quarter, representing a 20 percent increase. Our asset dispositions have allowed us to fund attractive growth opportunities, which have improved the quality of our multifamily portfolio and moved us closer to our goal of a 90/10 portfolio mix between multifamily and commercial. We believe the fundamentals of the business should remain strong and allow us to drive same-property performance in 2012."
Highlights for the Fourth Quarter 2011
- Multifamily same-property NOI increased 6.9 percent compared with fourth quarter 2010
- Multifamily same-property revenue increased 5.5 percent compared with fourth quarter 2010
- Ended the quarter with multifamily same-property physical occupancy of 95.9 percent
- Acquired the Colonial Grand at Hebron, a 312-unit Class A apartment community in Dallas, Texas
- Sold the 659,000-square-foot Colonial Pinnacle Turkey Creek in Knoxville, Tennessee, in which the company had a 50 percent joint venture interest and sold its remaining 5 percent interest in the 420,000-square-foot Colonial Promenade Alabaster II/Tutwiler II in Birmingham, Alabama
- Repurchased the remaining $50.0 million Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units of CRLP at a 5 percent discount to the original issuance price
Multifamily Operating Performance
Multifamily NOI for the fourth quarter 2011 increased 6.9 percent compared with the fourth quarter 2010 for the 29,233 apartment homes included in the consolidated same-property results. Multifamily same-property revenues increased 5.5 percent and expenses increased 3.5 percent compared with the fourth quarter 2010. The increase in revenues was primarily due to an improvement in both new and renewal lease rates and a consistently high occupancy level. The increase in expenses was primarily due to an increase in property taxes compared with the fourth quarter 2010.
Multifamily NOI for 2011 increased 7.3 percent compared with 2010, with multifamily same-property revenues increasing 4.4 percent and expenses increasing 0.6 percent. The increase in revenues was primarily due to an improvement in both new and renewal lease rates and a consistently high occupancy level. Same-property physical occupancy as of December 31, 2011, was 95.9 percent compared with 96.0 percent at December 31, 2010.
Sequentially, multifamily same-property NOI for the fourth quarter 2011 increased 5.6 percent compared with the third quarter 2011, with revenues increasing 1.0 percent and expenses decreasing 5.3 percent compared with the prior quarter. The decrease in expenses is primarily due to seasonal decreases in utilities and repair and maintenance costs in the fourth quarter 2011 compared with the third quarter 2011.
Asset Recycling Transactions
During the fourth quarter, the company acquired Colonial Grand at Hebron, a 312-unit Class A apartment community in Dallas, Texas, for $34.1 million. The company funded the acquisition with $23.9 million in proceeds from the sale of Colonial Center Town Park 400 that occurred in November 2011 and borrowings on the company's unsecured credit facility.
The company and its joint venture partner sold Colonial Pinnacle Turkey Creek, a 659,000-square-foot retail center located in Knoxville, Tennessee, for total consideration of $131.7 million. The company's 50 percent interest in the property was sold for total consideration of $65.9 million, comprised of $27.2 million in cash and the assumption and/or repayment of the company's $38.7 million share of the existing loans secured by the property. Proceeds from the sale were used to repay a portion of the outstanding balance on the company's unsecured credit facility, and fund the acquisition of multifamily apartment communities.
Additionally, the company sold its remaining 5 percent interest in Colonial Promenade Alabaster II/Tutwiler II, a 420,000-square-foot retail center located in Birmingham, Alabama, to its joint venture partner. The company's interest was sold for total consideration of $2.4 million, comprised of $0.4 million in cash and the joint venture partner's assumption of the company's $2.0 million share of the existing loan secured by the property. Proceeds from the sale were used to repay a portion of the outstanding balance on the company's unsecured credit facility.
Subsequent to quarter end, the company acquired Colonial Grand at Brier Creek Place, a 350-unit Class A apartment community located in Raleigh, North Carolina, for a total purchase price of $45.0 million. The apartment community was built in 2008. The purchase was funded with proceeds from asset dispositions and borrowings on the company's unsecured credit facility.
Development Activity
Construction continued during the quarter on three wholly owned apartment communities: Colonial Grand at Hampton Preserve, a $58.3 million development with 486 units in Tampa, Florida; Colonial Grand at Double Creek, a $31.7 million development with 296 units in Austin, Texas; and Colonial Grand at Lake Mary (Phase I), a $30.3 million development with 232 units in Orlando, Florida.
Other Charges
In connection with developments in certain on-going litigation, the company increased its loss contingency accrual by $3.3 million during the fourth quarter 2011, which is reflected in "Impairment and Other Losses" on the company's income statement.
Capital Markets Activity
In December 2011, CRLP completed the repurchase of its remaining $50 million outstanding 7.25% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units (the Preferred Units) for $47.5 million (plus accrued but unpaid dividends), which represented a 5 percent discount from the original issuance price and resulted in a gain of $1.2 million, net of issuance costs, in the fourth quarter 2011.
Quarterly Dividend on Common Shares
On January 26, 2012, the Board of Trustees voted to increase the quarterly cash dividend on common shares for the first quarter 2012 by 20 percent to $0.18 per common share. The dividend is payable February 13, 2012, to shareholders of record as of February 6, 2012, representing an ex-dividend date of February 2, 2012.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures in this press release. The non-GAAP financial measures include FFO, Operating FFO and NOI. The definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures are summarized below. The company believes that these measures are helpful to investors in measuring financial performance and comparing such performance to other REITs.
Funds from Operations -- FFO, as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT), means income (loss) before non-controlling interest (determined in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (losses) from sales of depreciated property and impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate, plus real estate depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO is a widely recognized measure in the company's industry and is presented to assist investors in analyzing the company's performance. The company believes that FFO is useful to investors because it provides an additional indicator of the company's financial and operating performance. This is because, by excluding the effect of real estate depreciation, gains (or losses) from sales of properties and impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate (all of which are based on historical costs which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance), FFO can facilitate comparison of operating performance among equity REITs. FFO is a widely recognized measure in the company's industry.
The company believes that the line on its consolidated statements of income entitled "net income available to common shareholders" is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to FFO.
Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. Thus, NAREIT created FFO as a supplemental measure of REIT operating performance that excludes historical cost depreciation, among other items, from GAAP net income. Management believes that the use of FFO, combined with the required primary GAAP presentations, is fundamentally beneficial, improving the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and making comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. In addition to company management evaluating the operating performance of its reportable segments based on FFO results, management uses FFO and FFO per share, along with other measures, to assess performance in connection with evaluating and granting incentive compensation to key employees.
Operating FFO -- The company also uses operating funds from operations ("Operating FFO") as an operating measure. The company defines Operating FFO as FFO excluding gains on the sale of land and development properties and gains on the repurchase of bonds and preferred shares. The company believes Operating FFO is an important supplemental measure because it provides a measure of operating performance. While land and development gains or the repurchase of debt/preferred shares are components of the company's current business plan, the timing and amount of these transactions can vary significantly between periods. The company believes that the line on its consolidated statements of income entitled "net income available to common shareholders" is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to Operating FFO.
Property Net Operating Income - The company uses property NOI, including same store NOI, as an operating measure. NOI is defined as total property revenues, including unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures, less total property operating expenses (such items as repairs and maintenance, payroll, utilities, property taxes, insurance and advertising). The company believes that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of its operating results, NOI should be examined in conjunction with (loss) income from continuing operations as presented in the company's consolidated financial statements. The company also believes that NOI is an important supplemental measure of operating performance for a REIT's operating real estate because it provides a measure of the core operations, rather than factoring in depreciation and amortization, financing costs and general and administrative expenses. This measure is particularly useful, in the opinion of the company, in evaluating the performance of geographic operations, same store groupings and individual properties. Additionally, the company believes that NOI is a widely accepted measure of comparative operating performance in the real estate investment community. The company believes that the line on its consolidated statements of income entitled "(loss) income from continuing operations" is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to NOI. In addition to company management evaluating the operating performance of its reportable segments based on NOI results, management uses NOI, along with other measures, to assess performance in connection with evaluating and granting incentive compensation to key employees.
The company's method of calculating FFO, Operating FFO and NOI may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. FFO, Operating FFO and NOI should not be considered (1) as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP), (2) as an indicator of financial performance, (3) as cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) or (4) as a measure of liquidity, nor is it indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of the company's needs, including the company's ability to make distributions.

| FFO, as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT), means income (loss) before noncontrolling interest (determined in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (losses) from sales of depreciated property and impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate, plus real estate depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO is presented to assist investors in analyzing the Company's performance. The Company believes that FFO is useful to investors because it provides an additional indicator of the Company's financial and operating performance. This is because, by excluding the effect of real estate depreciation and gains (or losses) from sales of properties (all of which are based on historical costs which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance), FFO can facilitate comparison of operating performance among equity REITs. FFO is a widely recognized measure in the Company's industry. | ||||||||||||||||
| On October 31, 2011, NAREIT issued updated guidance on FFO indicating that all companies should exclude impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate assets when computing FFO. Previously, the Company's calculation of FFO did not exclude impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate assets. As a result, the Company has changed its presentation of FFO to exclude impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate assets. However, no amounts presented herein were impacted by this change in presentation. | ||||||||||||||||
| The Company defines Operating FFO as FFO excluding gains on the sale of land and development properties, gains on the repurchase of bonds, net of the attributable write-off of future interest expense held in OCI, and gains on the repurchase of preferred shares/units, net of the write-off of issuance costs. The Company believes Operating FFO is an important supplemental measure because it provides a measure of operating performance. While land and development gains or the repurchase of debt/preferred shares/units are components of the Company's current business plan, the timing and amount of these transactions can vary significantly between periods. | ||||||||||||||||
| The Company's method of calculating FFO and Operating FFO may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. Neither FFO nor Operating FFO should be considered (1) as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP), (2) as an indicator of financial performance, (3) as cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) or (4) as a measure of liquidity nor is it indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of our needs, including our ability to make distributions. | ||||||||||||||||
