“As spring unfolds, our portfolio remains both stable and on the rebound from the continued reopening of our cities and states with increasing enthusiasm about our economy’s long-term outlook,” stated Kenneth F. Bernstein, President and CEO of Acadia Realty Trust. “We continue to expand our leasing pipeline, which includes several new executed leases on our key urban and street-retail spaces; in doing so, we are seeing retailer demand shift from the necessity-based component of our portfolio to the discretionary elements as the consumer signals pent-up demand. On the external growth front, we are also beginning to see more actionable investment opportunities, and our dual platform is well poised to capitalize on them.”

OPERATIONS UPDATE

COVID-19 Impact on Operations

First quarter results were less negatively impacted by credit losses and reserves of approximately $3.7 million, or $0.04 per share. Credit losses and abatements of $3.5 million in the first quarter represented a 40% sequential improvement, after adjusting for approximately $2.0 million of one-time recoveries on previously written off rents that were recognized in the fourth quarter of 2020.

The amounts below represent Acadia’s pro-rata share of credit losses, abatements and straight-line rent reserves primarily associated with the COVID-19 Pandemic (in millions):

In the table above, “Credit Loss and Abatements – Billed Rents and Recoveries” represent reserves taken against a tenant’s rent and recoveries that were billable pursuant to the terms of a lease agreement. “Straight-Line Rent Reserves” represent reserves against a tenant’s straight-line rent balance. The balance is derived from the cumulative difference, generally from inception of the lease, between a tenant’s billed rents and the amount of rent recognized in earnings on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease.

Core Portfolio Cash Collections and Opening Status

The Company collected 92% of its first quarter pre-COVID billings as follows:

All amounts are based upon pre-COVD billings (original contract rents without regard to deferral or abatement agreements) and exclude the impact of any security deposits applied against tenant accounts.

Approximately 92% and 95% of Core Portfolio’s tenants were open for business at March 31, 2021, based on pro-rata gross ABR and GLA, respectively.

Balance Sheet

The Company accumulated approximately $40.0 million of cash, which was utilized to pay down debt during the first quarter, enabling it to reduce its Core indebtedness by approximately 5%.

As previously announced, the Company reinstated its quarterly dividend for the first quarter at $0.15 per common share, which was paid on April 15, 2021. The Company and its Board of Trustees will continue to revisit, and modify as needed, its quarterly distributions to meet its annual REIT taxable income requirements.

Year to date, no additional shares have been issued under the Company’s at-the-market equity program.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL RESULTS

Net Income (Loss)

This included aggregate charges of $3.7 million, or $0.04 per share, related to credit loss, straight-line rent reserves and tenant abatements, primarily due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. These charges were partially offset by (i) $1.7 million, or $0.02 per share, from the unrealized mark-to-market gain on Albertsons and (ii) $5.1 million, or $0.06 per share, attributable to an aggregate gain on dispositions of Core and Fund investments. Net loss attributable to Acadia for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 was $8.4 million, or $0.10 per share, (i) inclusive of $12.4 million, or $0.14 per share attributable to impairment charges within the Funds and (ii) $4.2 million, or $0.05 per share related to credit loss and straight-line rent reserves, primarily due to the COVID-19 Pandemic.

This included $3.7 million, or $0.04 per share, related to credit loss, straight-line rent reserves and tenant abatements, primarily due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. These charges were offset by $1.7 million, or $0.02 per share, from the unrealized mark-to-market gain on Albertsons.

CORE PORTFOLIO

Core Portfolio Operating Results

The Company had a decrease in same-property NOI of 14.5% for the first quarter 2021 as compared to the first quarter 2020 (pre-pandemic) primarily due to elevated credit reserves.

The Core Portfolio was 89.5% occupied and 91.0% leased as of March 31, 2021 compared to 89.9% occupied and 90.9% leased as of December 31, 2020. The leased rate includes space that is leased but not yet occupied and excludes development and redevelopment properties.

During the first quarter, the Company generated a 23.7% increase in rent on a GAAP basis and 1.1% increase in rent on a cash basis, on 11 conforming new and renewal leases aggregating approximately 60,000 square feet.

The Company continued to expand its Core leasing pipeline, which currently exceeds $10.0 million to date (of which $5.0 million has been executed) to date, with over 50% of the leasing pipeline within its Street/Urban portfolio, including key leases in Chicago, San Francisco and New York Metro.

FUND PLATFORM

Fund V Update

Fund V has approximately $100.0 million of new investments under contract and/or agreements in principle.

Additionally, Fund V extended its investment period to August 2022. The fund has $208.0 million of remaining capital commitments available to invest (approximately $600.0 million on a leveraged basis, including the $100.0 million of identified investments, above).

2021 GUIDANCE

The Company increased its annual 2021 guidance to reflect its improved outlook on leasing and credit reserves as follows:

The revised guidance is based upon Acadia’s current view of existing market conditions and assumptions for the year ending December 31, 2021 and assumes no further government mandated shut-downs. Additionally, given the ongoing uncertainties resulting from the COVID-19 Pandemic, the 2021 guidance does not incorporate any assumptions involving adjustments to its straight-line rent reserves or predictions of the variability that inherently results from those tenants that are, or may be subsequently classified, on the cash basis of accounting. The impact of such amounts could be material. Accordingly, the Company will update its guidance throughout 2021, as appropriate to reflect such items.

Please refer to the Company’s first quarter 2021 supplemental information package for additional details on certain other assumptions involving its 2021 guidance.
