1.
Organization and Description of Business
Douglas
Emmett, Inc., a Maryland corporation incorporated on June 28, 2005, is a fully
integrated, self-administered and self-managed Real Estate Investment Trust
(REIT). We did not have any meaningful operating activity until the
consummation of our initial public offering (IPO) and the related acquisition of
our predecessor and certain other entities on October 30,
2006. Through our interest in Douglas Emmett Properties, LP (our
operating partnership) and its subsidiaries, we own, manage, lease, acquire and
develop real estate. As of June 30, 2008, we owned a portfolio of 55
office properties (including ancillary retail space) and nine multifamily
properties, as well as the fee interests in two parcels of land that we lease to
third parties. All of these properties are located in Los Angeles
County, California and Honolulu, Hawaii. We qualified as a REIT for
federal income tax purposes beginning with our initial taxable year ending
December 31, 2006 and expect to maintain such qualification.
2.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2008 and December
31, 2007 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 are the
consolidated financial statements of Douglas Emmett, Inc. and its subsidiaries
including our operating partnership. All significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial
statements. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to
conform with current period presentation.
Unaudited
Interim Financial Information
The accompanying unaudited interim
financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and
footnote disclosure normally included in the financial statements prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
(GAAP) may have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the
presentation not misleading. The accompanying unaudited financial
statements include, in our opinion, all adjustments, consisting of normal
recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial information set
forth therein. The results of operations for the interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended
December 31, 2008. The interim financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 and notes
thereto. Any reference to the number of properties and square footage
are unaudited and outside the scope of our independent registered public
accounting firm’s review of our financial statements in accordance with the
standards of the United States Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board.
Use
of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements
in conformity with GAAP requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions,
for example with respect to the allocation of the purchase price of acquisitions
among land, buildings, improvements, equipment and any related intangible assets
and liabilities. These estimates and assumptions are subjective and
affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those
estimates.

Cash
and Cash Equivalents
For
purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, we consider short-term
investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash
equivalents.
Interest
Rate Contracts
We manage our interest rate risk
associated with borrowings by obtaining interest rate swap and interest rate cap
contracts. We do not use any other derivative
instruments.
Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities (FAS 133), as
amended and interpreted, establishes accounting and reporting standards for
derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in
other contracts, and for hedging activities. As required by FAS 133,
we record all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The
accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended
use of the derivative and the resulting designation. Derivatives used to hedge
the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm
commitment attributable to a particular risk, are considered fair value hedges.
Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash
flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow
hedges.
Our
objective in using derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to
manage our exposure to interest rate movements or other identified risks.
To accomplish this objective, we primarily use interest rate swaps as part of
our cash flow hedging strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as
cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts in exchange for
fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the
underlying principal amount. For derivatives designated as cash flow
hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is
initially reported in other comprehensive income (outside of earnings) and
subsequently reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction affects
earnings. The ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the
derivative is recognized directly in earnings. We assess the
effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in fair
value or cash flows of the derivative hedging instrument with the changes in
fair value or cash flows of the designated hedged item or transaction. For
derivatives not designated as hedges, changes in fair value are recognized in
earnings. See Note 8 for the accounting of our interest rate
hedges.
Income
Taxes
We
elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (IRC) commencing with our initial taxable year ending December 31,
2006. To qualify as a REIT, we are required to distribute at least
90% of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders and meet the various other
requirements imposed by the IRC relating to such matters as operating results,
asset holdings, distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership. Provided
we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we generally will not be subject to
corporate-level income tax on the earnings distributed currently to our
stockholders that we derive from our REIT qualifying activities. We will be
subject to corporate-level tax on the earnings we derive through our taxable
REIT subsidiary (TRS). If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, and
are unable to avail ourselves of certain savings provisions set forth in the
IRC, all of our taxable income would be subject to federal income tax at regular
corporate rates, including any applicable alternative minimum
tax.

(in
thousands, except shares and per share data)
In
addition, we are subject to taxation by various state and local (and potentially
foreign) jurisdictions, including those in which we transact business or
reside. Our non-TRS subsidiaries, including the operating
partnership, are either partnerships or disregarded entities for federal income
tax purposes. Under applicable federal and state income tax rules,
the allocated share of net income or loss from the limited partnerships and
S-Corporation is reportable in the income tax returns of the respective partners
and stockholders. Accordingly, no income tax provision is included in
the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Earnings
Per Share (EPS)
Basic EPS
is calculated by dividing the net income applicable to common stockholders for
the period by the weighted average of common shares outstanding during the
period. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the net income
applicable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number
of common and dilutive instruments outstanding during the period using the
treasury stock method. Since we were in a net loss position during
the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, all potentially dilutive
instruments are anti-dilutive and have been excluded from our computation of
weighted average dilutive shares outstanding.
Recently
Issued Accounting Literature
In
February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FAS No.
159, The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an Amendment of FASB
Statement No. 115. This standard permits entities to choose to
measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and is
effective for the first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2007, which for
us meant January 1, 2008. We did not elect the fair value measurement
option for any financial assets or liabilities during the first six months of
2008, nor do we currently expect to elect this option for any financial assets
or liabilities in the near future.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements-an Amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin
No. 51 (FAS 160). FAS 160 establishes new accounting and
reporting standards for a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the
deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Specifically, this statement
requires the recognition of a non-controlling interest (minority interest) as
equity in the consolidated financial statements separate from the parent’s
equity. The amount of net income attributable to the non-controlling
interest will be included in consolidated net income on the face of the income
statement. FAS 160 clarifies that changes in a parent’s ownership
interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity
transactions if the parent retains its controlling financial
interest. In addition, this statement requires that a parent
recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is
deconsolidated. Such gain or loss will be measured using the fair
value of the non-controlling equity investment on the deconsolidation
date. FAS 160 also includes expanded disclosure requirements
regarding the interests of the parent and its non-controlling
interest. FAS 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods
within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008, which for us
means January 1, 2009. We are currently evaluating the impact that
FAS 160 will have on our financial statements.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued FAS No. 141 (Revised 2007), Business Combinations (FAS
141R). FAS 141R will significantly change the accounting for business
combinations. Under FAS 141R, an acquiring entity will be required to
recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a transaction at
the acquisition-date fair value with limited exceptions. FAS 141R
will require that transaction costs such as legal, accounting and advisory fees
be expensed. FAS 141R also includes a substantial number of new
disclosure requirements. FAS 141R applies prospectively to business
combinations occurring in any reporting period beginning on or after December
15, 2008, which for us means January 1, 2009. We are currently
evaluating the impact that FAS 141R will have on our financial
statements.

Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements--(continued)
(in
thousands, except shares and per share data)
On
January 1, 2008, we adopted FAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (FAS
157). FAS 157
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and
expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FAS 157 applies to
reported balances that are required or permitted to be measured at fair value
under existing accounting pronouncements; accordingly, the standard does not
require any new fair value measurements of reported balances. FAS 157
emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific
measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined
based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset
or liability. As a basis for considering market participant
assumptions in fair value measurements, FAS 157 establishes a fair value
hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on
market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity
(observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy)
and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions
(unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the
hierarchy). Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in
active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to
access. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1
that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or
indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar
assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable
for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates,
foreign exchange rates, and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted
intervals.
Currently,
we use interest rate swaps and caps to manage interest rate
risk resulting from variable interest payments on our floating rate
debt. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely
accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the
expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual
terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable
market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied
volatilities.
To comply
with the provisions of FAS 157, we incorporate credit valuation adjustments to
appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective
counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In
adjusting the fair value of our derivative contracts for the effect of
nonperformance risk, we considered the impact of netting and any applicable
credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts and
guarantees. We have determined that our derivative valuations in
their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value
hierarchy. We do not have any fair value measurements using
significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) as of June 30, 2008.
The table
below presents the assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring
basis as of June 30, 2008, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy
within which those measurements fall.

Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements--(continued)
(in
thousands, except shares and per share data)
In March
2008, the FASB issued Statement No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities (FAS 161), an amendment of
FAS 133, to expand disclosure requirements for an entity's derivative and
hedging activities. Under FAS 161, entities are required to
provide enhanced disclosures about how and why an entity uses derivative
instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted
for under FAS 133 and its related interpretations, and how derivative
instruments and related hedged items affect an entity's financial position,
financial performance, and cash flows. In order to meet these
requirements, entities shall include quantitative disclosures about derivative
fair values and gains/losses on derivative instruments, qualitative disclosures
about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, and disclosures about
credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. FAS 161
is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after
November 15, 2008, with early adoption encouraged. We plan to
adopt FAS 161 on January 1, 2009 and do not expect FAS 161 to
have a significant impact as this statement only addresses
disclosures.

Acquisitions
On March 26, 2008, we acquired a
1.4 million square foot office portfolio consisting of six Class “A” buildings
all located in our core Los Angeles submarkets – Santa Monica, Beverly Hills,
Sherman Oaks/Encino and Warner Center/Woodland Hills – for a contract price of
approximately $610 million. An affiliate of the seller provided $380
million of first trust deed bridge financing at a floating rate of the London
Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 200 basis points for nine
months.
On
February 13, 2008, we acquired a two-thirds interest in a 78,298 square-foot
office building located in Honolulu, Hawaii. As part of the same
transaction, we also acquired all of the assets of The Honolulu Club, a private
membership athletic and social club, which is located in the
building. The aggregate contract price was approximately $18 million
and the purchase was made in a consolidated joint venture with our local
partner. The joint venture financed the acquisition with an $18
million loan at a floating interest rate of LIBOR plus 125 basis
points. The loan has a term of two years with a one-year
extension. On May 1, 2008, the operations of the athletic club were
transferred to a third party for a nominal cost. Simultaneously, we
entered into a lease of the space rented by the athletic club. The
results of operations and loss on sale of the assets of the athletic club were
not material.
In May
2007, we acquired an approximate 50,000 rentable square foot Class “A” office
building located in one of our core Los Angeles submarkets, Century City, for a
contract price of $32 million.
The
results of operations for each of the acquired properties are included in our
consolidated statements of operations only from the date of each
acquisition. The following table summarizes the allocations of
estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date
of acquisition. The amounts shown for 2008 acquisitions represent our
preliminary purchase price allocations. These amounts are likely to
change based on a more thorough calculation to be performed during the one-year
purchase accounting period provided under the relevant accounting
standards.

amortization is included as a component of interest expense in the consolidated
statements of operations.
5.
Minimum Future Lease Rentals
We
have leased space to tenants primarily under noncancelable operating leases,
which generally contain provisions for a base rent plus reimbursement for
certain operating expenses. Operating expense reimbursements are reflected in
our consolidated statements of operations as tenant recoveries.
We have
leased space to certain tenants under noncancelable leases, which provide for
percentage rents based upon tenant revenues. Percentage rental income for the
three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 totaled $185 and $357, respectively,
and $429 and $621 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007,
respectively.
Future
minimum base rentals on noncancelable office and ground operating leases at June

deferred rent receivables and above/below-market lease intangibles. Some leases
are subject to termination options. In general, these leases provide for
termination payments should the termination options be exercised. The preceding
table is prepared assuming such options are not exercised.

Secured Notes Payable
During
the first six months of 2008, we borrowed an additional $738 million of
debt, as follows:
·
|
We
obtained a $380 million bridge loan from an affiliate of the seller
in the March 2008 acquisitions described in Note 3. This loan
has an interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 200 basis points and a
nine-month term.
|
·
|
We
obtained a non-recourse $340 million term loan secured by four of our
previously unencumbered office properties. This loan bears
interest at a floating rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 150 basis
points, but we have entered into interest rate swap contracts that
effectively fix the interest rate at 4.84%, until January 2,
2013. This loan facility matures on April 1,
2015. Proceeds from this loan were utilized to repay our
secured revolving credit facility and for general corporate
purposes.
|
·
|
The
joint venture in which we have a two-thirds interest obtained an $18
million loan that financed the February 2008 acquisition described in Note
3. This loan has an interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 125
basis points and a two-year term with a one-year
extension.

Senior
Secured Revolving Credit Facility
We have a
$370 million revolving credit facility. Our secured revolving credit
facility is with a group of banks led by Bank of America, NA and Banc of America
Securities, LLC, and bears interest at a rate per annum equal to either LIBOR
plus 70 basis points or Federal Funds Rate plus 95 basis points if the amount
outstanding is $262.5 million or less and at either LIBOR plus 80 basis points
or Federal Funds Rate plus 105 basis points if the amount outstanding is greater
than $262.5 million. Our secured revolving credit facility contains
an accordion feature that allows us to increase the availability by an
additional $130 million to $500 million, under specified
circumstances. The facility bears interest at 15 basis points on the
undrawn balance. The facility expires in 2009 with two one-year
extensions at our option.
8.
Interest Rate Contracts
We have
executed interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $3.24 billion to
protect against interest rate fluctuations on our existing variable-rate term
loan facilities. These derivatives were designated and qualify as
highly effective cash flow hedges under FAS 133 and remove the variability from
the hedged cash flows. The change in fair value of these cash flow
hedges was recorded as an unrealized gain during each of the respective
reporting periods shown in the following table. Such unrealized gains
were recorded to accumulated other comprehensive income in our consolidated
balance sheets. An immaterial amount of hedge ineffectiveness has
also been recorded in interest expense.
The
components of comprehensive income consist of the following:

We also
have additional interest rate swaps that we acquired from our predecessor at the
time of our IPO. Our predecessor had $2.2 billion notional of
pay-fixed interest rate swaps at swap rates ranging between 4.09% and
5.00%. Concurrent with the completion of our IPO, we executed
receive-fixed swaps for the same notional amount at swap rates ranging between
4.96% and 5.00%, which were intended to largely offset the future cash flows and
future change in fair value of our predecessor’s pay-fixed swaps. The
acquired pay-fixed swaps and the new receive-fixed swaps were not designated as
hedges under FAS 133 and as such, the changes in fair value of these interest
rate swaps have been recognized in earnings for all periods. The
aggregate fair value of these swaps decreased $5.5 million and
$2.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007,
respectively, and $7.4 million and $6.5 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.

Stockholders’ Equity and Minority Interests
Minority interests in our operating
partnership relate to interests in that partnership which are not owned by
us. Minority interests amounted to approximately 22% of our operating
partnership at June 30, 2008. A unit in our operating partnership and
a share of our common stock have essentially the same economic characteristics
as they share equally in the total net income or loss distributions of our
operating partnership. Investors who own units in our operating
partnership have the right to cause our operating partnership to redeem any or
all of their units in our operating partnership for cash equal to the
then-current market value of one share of common stock, or, at our election,
shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis. At the end of each
reporting period, we calculate the book value of net assets allocable to
minority interests, and adjust the balance to reflect the calculated amount with
a reclass to or from the retained earnings (accumulated deficit)
balance.
Minority
interests also includes the interest of a minority partner in a joint venture
formed during the first quarter of 2008 to purchase an office building in
Honolulu, Hawaii. The joint venture is two-thirds owned by our
operating partnership and is consolidated in our financial statements as of June
30, 2008, with the minority interest eliminated.
Dividends
During
the first six months of 2008 and 2007, we declared quarterly dividends of
$0.1875 and $0.175 per share, respectively, which equals an annualized rate of
$0.75 and $0.70 per share, respectively.
Equity
Conversions and Repurchases
During
the first six months of 2008, investors converted 11.5 million operating
partnership units to shares of common stock and we repurchased approximately
1.1 million share equivalents in private transactions for a total
consideration of approximately $23.8 million. We may make
additional purchases of our share equivalents from time to time in private
transactions or in the public markets, but do not have any commitments to do
so. Also, during the first six months of 2008, we issued
approximately 31,000 shares of common stock to satisfy the exercise of certain
vested employee stock options.
Taxability
of Dividends
Earnings
and profits, which determine the taxability of distributions to stockholders,
will differ from income reported for financial reporting purposes due to the
differences for federal income tax purposes in the treatment of loss on
extinguishment of debt, revenue recognition, compensation expense and in the
basis of depreciable assets and estimated useful lives used to compute
depreciation.

Stock-Based Compensation
The
Douglas Emmett, Inc. 2006 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan, our stock incentive
plan, was adopted by our board of directors and approved by our stockholders
prior to the consummation of our IPO. Our stock incentive plan is
administered by the compensation committee of our board of directors. All
full-time and part-time officers, employees, directors and other key persons
(including consultants and prospective employees) are eligible to participate in
our stock incentive plan. For more information on our stock incentive
plan, please refer to the notes to the consolidated financial statements in our
2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
During
the first quarter of 2008, we granted approximately 2.7 million long-term
incentive units and stock options with a total fair market value of $9.9
million. No additional grants have been made during
2008. Upon the vesting of equity awards, we recognized non-cash
compensation expense of $1.0 million and $0.7 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 respectively, and $2.1 million and $1.4 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. An
additional $2.2 million of equity awards vested during the first quarter of
2008 to satisfy a portion of the bonuses accrued during 2007.
11.
Commitments and Contingencies
We are
subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary
course of business. These matters are generally covered by
insurance. We believe that the ultimate outcome of these actions will
not have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of
operations or cash flows.
Concentration
of Credit Risk
Our
properties are located in premier submarkets within Los Angeles County,
California and Honolulu, Hawaii. The ability of the tenants to honor the terms
of their respective leases is dependent upon the economic, regulatory and social
factors affecting the markets in which the tenants operate. We
perform ongoing credit evaluations of our tenants for potential credit
losses. Financial instruments that subject us to credit risk consist
primarily of cash, accounts receivable, deferred rents receivable and interest
rate contracts. We maintain our cash and cash equivalents with high quality
financial institutions. Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $100,000.00 and to date, we have not
experienced any losses on our deposited cash. All of our deposits are
maintained at banks with investment grade ratings as evaluated by the
predominant rating agencies.
Asset
Retirement Obligations
FASB
Interpretation No. 47, Accounting for Conditional Asset
Retirement Obligations—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143
clarifies that the term “conditional asset retirement obligation” as used in FAS
No. 143, Accounting for
Asset Retirement Obligations, represents a legal obligation to perform an
asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement is
conditional on a future event that may or may not be within a company’s
control. Under this standard, a liability for a conditional asset
retirement obligation must be recorded if the fair value of the obligation can
be reasonably estimated. Environmental site assessments and
investigations have identified 18 properties in our portfolio containing
asbestos, which would have to be removed in compliance with applicable
environmental regulations if these properties undergo major renovations or are
demolished. As of June 30, 2008, the obligations to remove the
asbestos from these properties have indeterminable settlement dates, and
therefore, we are unable to reasonably estimate the fair value of the associated
conditional asset retirement obligation.

Segment Reporting
FAS
No. 131, Disclosures
about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information, established
standards for disclosure about operating segments and related disclosures about
products and services, geographic areas and major customers. Segment information
is prepared on the same basis that our management reviews information for
operational decision-making purposes. We have operated in two business segments:
(i) the acquisition, redevelopment, ownership and management of office real
estate and (ii) the acquisition, redevelopment, ownership and management of
multifamily real estate. The products for our office segment include
primarily rental of office space and other tenant services including parking and
storage space rental. The products for our multifamily segment include rental of
apartments and other tenant services including parking and storage space
rental.
Asset
information by segment is not reported because we do not use this measure to
assess performance and make decisions to allocate
resources. Therefore, depreciation and amortization expense is not
allocated among segments. Interest and other income, management
services, general and administrative expenses, interest expense, depreciation
and amortization expense and net derivative gains and losses are not included in
rental revenues less rental expenses as the internal reporting addresses these
items on a corporate level.

Rental
revenues less rental expenses is not a measure of operating results or cash
flows from operating activities as measured by GAAP, and it is not indicative of
cash available to fund cash needs and should not be considered an alternative to
cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Not all companies may calculate rental
revenues less rental expenses in the same manner. We consider rental revenues
less rental expenses to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income
because it assists both investors and management in understanding the core
operations of our properties.
The following table represents operating activity within our reportable segments:

Forward
Looking Statements.
This
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Report) contains forward-looking statements
within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the Exchange Act). You can find many (but not all) of these
statements by looking for words such as “approximates,” “believes,” “expects,”
“anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “plans,” “would,” “may” or other similar
expressions in this Report. We claim the protection of the safe
harbor contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995. We caution investors that any forward-looking statements
presented in this Report, or those that we may make orally or in writing from
time to time, are based on the beliefs of, assumptions made by, and information
currently available to us. Such statements are based on assumptions
and the actual outcome will be affected by known and unknown risks, trends,
uncertainties and factors that are beyond our control or ability to
predict. Although we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, they are
not guarantees of future performance and some will inevitably prove to be
incorrect. As a result, our actual future results can be expected to
differ from our expectations, and those differences may be
material. Accordingly, investors should use caution in relying on
past forward-looking statements, which are based on known results and trends at
the time they are made, to anticipate future results or trends.
Some
of the risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance or
achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by
forward-looking statements include the following: adverse economic or real
estate developments in Southern California and Honolulu; decreased rental rates
or increased tenant incentive and vacancy rates; defaults on, early termination
of, or non-renewal of leases by tenants; increased interest rates and operating
costs; failure to generate sufficient cash flows to service our outstanding
indebtedness; difficulties in identifying properties to acquire and completing
acquisitions; failure to successfully operate acquired properties and
operations; failure to maintain our status as a Real Estate Investment Trust
(REIT) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; possible adverse
changes in rent control laws and regulations; environmental uncertainties; risks
related to natural disasters; lack or insufficient amount of insurance;
inability to successfully expand into new markets and submarkets; risks
associated with property development; conflicts of interest with our officers;
changes in real estate, zoning laws and increases in real property tax rates;
and the consequences of any future terrorist attacks. For further discussion of
these and other factors, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our 2007
Annual Report on Form 10-K.
This
Report and all subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements
attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in
their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this
section. We do not undertake any obligation to release publicly any
revisions to our forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances
after the date of this Report.
Critical
Accounting Policies
Our
discussion and analysis of our historical financial condition and results of
operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been
prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial
statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates of certain
items and judgments as to certain future events, for example with respect to the
allocation of the purchase price of acquired property among land, buildings,
improvements, equipment, and any related intangible assets and liabilities, or
the effect of a property tax reassessment of our properties. These
determinations, even though inherently subjective and prone to change, affect
the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, revenues and
expenses. While we believe that our estimates are based on reasonable
assumptions and judgments at the time they are made, some of our assumptions,
estimates and judgments will inevitably prove to be incorrect. As a
result, actual outcomes will likely differ from our accruals, and those
differences—positive or negative—could be material. Some of our
accruals are subject to adjustment, as we believe appropriate based on revised
estimates and reconciliation to the actual results when available.
In
addition, we identified certain critical accounting policies that affect certain
of our more significant estimates and assumptions used in preparing our
consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2007. We have not made any material changes to
these policies during the periods covered by this report.

Overview
We are a
fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed REIT and one of the largest
owners and operators of high-quality office and multifamily properties in Los
Angeles County, California and in Honolulu, Hawaii. Our presence in
Los Angeles and Honolulu is the result of a consistent and focused strategy of
identifying submarkets that are supply constrained, have high barriers to entry
and exhibit strong economic characteristics such as population and job growth
and a diverse economic base. In our office portfolio, we focus
primarily on owning and acquiring a substantial share of top-tier office
properties within submarkets located near high-end executive housing and key
lifestyle amenities. In our multifamily portfolio, we focus primarily on owning
and acquiring select properties at premier locations within these same
submarkets. Our properties are concentrated in nine premier Los
Angeles County submarkets—Brentwood, Olympic Corridor, Century City, Santa
Monica, Beverly Hills, Westwood, Sherman Oaks/Encino, Warner Center/Woodland
Hills and Burbank—as well as in Honolulu, Hawaii.
Significant
Transactions
Acquisitions and
Dispositions. During the first six months of 2008, we
completed the following transactions (see Note 3 to our consolidated
financial statements included in this Report):
Ÿ
|
In
March 2008, we acquired a 1.4 million square foot office portfolio
consisting of six Class “A” buildings located in our core Los Angeles
submarkets – Santa Monica, Beverly Hills, Sherman Oaks/Encino and Warner
Center/Woodland Hills – for a contract price of approximately $610
million.
|
Ÿ
|
In
February 2008, we acquired a 78,298 square-foot office building located in
Honolulu, Hawaii. As part of the same transaction, we also
acquired all of the assets of The Honolulu Club, a private membership
athletic and social club, which is located in the building. The
aggregate contract price was approximately $18 million and the purchase
was made in a consolidated joint venture with our local
partner. In May 2008, we transferred the operations of the
athletic club to a third party for a nominal cost and incurred an
immaterial loss on disposition.
|
Financings. During the first
quarter of 2008, we completed the following transactions (see Note 7 to our
consolidated financial statements included in this Report):
·
|
We
obtained a non-recourse $340 million term loan secured by four of our
previously unencumbered office
properties.
|
·
|
We
obtained a $380 million bridge loan from an affiliate of the seller
in the March 2008 acquisitions described
above.
|
·
|
The
joint venture, in which we have a two-thirds interest, obtained an $18
million loan that financed the February 2008 acquisition described
above.

Comparison
of three months ended June 30, 2008 to three months ended June 30,

Revenues
Total Office
Revenue. Total office revenue consists of rental revenue,
tenant recoveries and parking and other income. For the reasons
described below, total office portfolio revenue increased by $22.8 million, or
20.8%, to $132.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 compared to
$109.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007.
Rental
Revenue. Rental revenue includes rental revenues from our
office properties, percentage rent on the retail space contained within office
properties, and lease termination income. Total office rental revenue
increased by $18.3 million, or 19.7%, to $111.2 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2008 compared to $92.9 million for the three months ended June
30, 2007. Rent increased across our existing office portfolio due to
increases in average rental rates for new and renewal leases. The
increase is also due to $14.7 million of incremental rent from the nine
properties we acquired subsequent to the beginning of the second quarter of
2007, including the property acquisitions described above.
Tenant
Recoveries. Total office tenant recoveries increased by $1.7
million, or 30.4%, to $7.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008
compared to $5.6 million for the three months ended June 30,
2007. The increase was due to $1.0 million of incremental recoverable
operating expenses from the nine properties we acquired subsequent to the
beginning of the second quarter of 2007, including the property acquisitions
described above.
Parking and Other
Income. Total office parking and other income increased by
$2.8 million, or 25.3%, to $13.9 million for the three months ended June 30,
2008 compared to $11.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007,
primarily due to increases in parking rates implemented across the portfolio,
increases in ground rent income, and incremental revenues of $1.5 million from
the nine properties we acquired subsequent to the beginning of the second
quarter of 2007, including the property acquisitions described
above.
Total Multifamily
Revenue. Total multifamily revenue consists of rent, parking
income and other income. Total multifamily revenue decreased by $0.4
million, or 2.4%, to $17.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008,
compared to $17.4 million for the three months ended June 30,
2007. The decrease is primarily due to the amortization of the
below-market leases for certain multifamily units initially recorded at the time
of our IPO and formation transactions. The value of these
below-market leases were amortized over the life of the related leases,
estimated to be 18 months, and recorded as an increase to rental
income. These below-market leases were fully amortized in April 2008,
resulting in a decrease to multifamily revenue for the three months ended June
30, 2008 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2007. This
decrease was partially offset by an increase in occupancy and an increase in
rents charged to both new and existing tenants, including increases for select
Santa Monica multifamily units. These units were under leases signed
prior to a 1999 change in California Law that allows landlords to reset rents to
market rates when a tenant moves out. Therefore, a portion of the
multifamily increase was due to the rollover to market rents of several of these
rent-controlled units, or “Pre-1999 Units”, since July 1, 2007.
Operating
Expenses
Office Rental
Expenses. Total office rental expense increased by $5.2
million, or 16.7%, to $36.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008,
compared to $31.3 million for the three months ended June 30,
2007. The increase was due to $5.8 million of incremental operating
expenses from the nine properties we acquired subsequent to the beginning of the
second quarter of 2007, including the property acquisitions described above,
slightly offset by lower expenses at our existing portfolio.
Depreciation and
Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased
$13.4 million, or 26.5%, to $63.9 million for the three months ended June 30,
2008, compared to $50.5 million for the three months ended June 30,
2007. The increase is primarily due to the finalization of the
purchase price allocation and related lives of real estate assets combined at
the time of our IPO and incorporation transactions, as well as incremental
depreciation and amortization of $9.0 million from the nine properties we
acquired subsequent to the beginning of the second quarter of 2007, including
the property acquisitions described above.

Non-Operating
Income and Expenses
Interest
Expense. Interest expense increased $13.5 million, or 35.2%,
to $51.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008, compared to $38.3
million for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The increase was
primarily due to incremental interest from the $150 million borrowed during the
second quarter of 2007, the increase in borrowings outstanding under our
revolving credit facility, and the additional $738 million borrowed during 2008
to fund property acquisitions and for general corporate purposes.

Revenues
Total Office
Revenue. Total office revenue consists of rental revenue,
tenant recoveries and parking and other income. For the reasons
described below, total office portfolio revenue increased by $29.0 million, or
13.1%, to $249.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to
$220.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007.
Rental
Revenue. Rental revenue includes rental revenues from our
office properties, percentage rent on the retail space contained within office
properties and lease termination income. Total office rental revenue
increased by $25.7 million, or 13.9%, to $210.2 million for the six months ended
June 30, 2008 compared to $184.5 million for the six months ended June 30,
2007. Rent increased across our existing office portfolio due to
increases in average rental rates for new and renewal leases. The
increase is also due to $17.5 million of incremental rent from the nine
properties we acquired subsequent to the beginning of the second quarter of
2007, including the property acquisitions described above.
Tenant
Recoveries. Total office tenant recoveries decreased by $1.1
million, or 8.2%, to $12.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008
compared to $13.8 million for the six months ended June 30,
2007. This is due in part to a reduction in the accrual of property
tax expense during the second quarter of 2007. This was partially
offset by $1.3 million of incremental recoverable operating expenses from the
nine properties we acquired subsequent to the beginning of the second quarter of
2007, including the property acquisitions described above.
Parking and Other
Income. Total office parking and other income increased by
$4.4 million, or 19.7%, to $26.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008
compared to $22.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, primarily due
to increases in parking rates implemented across the portfolio, increases in
ground rent income, and incremental revenues of $2.0 million from the nine
properties we acquired subsequent to the beginning of the second quarter of
2007, including the property acquisitions described above.
Operating
Expenses
Office Rental
Expenses. Total office rental expense increased by $3.3
million, or 5.1%, to $67.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008,
compared to $64.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The
increase is primarily due to $7.3 million of incremental operating expenses from
the nine properties we acquired subsequent to the beginning of the second
quarter of 2007, including the property acquisitions described
above. The increase was offset by a reduction in the accrual of
property tax expense during the second quarter of 2007.
Multifamily Rental Expenses. Total multifamily rental expense decreased by $1.2 million, or 13.2%, to $7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to $8.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. This is primarily due to a reduction in the accrual of property tax expense during the second quarter of 2007.
- 23
-
Depreciation and
Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased
$19.0 million, or 18.7%, to $120.6 million for the six months ended June 30,
2008, compared to $101.6 million for the six months ended June 30,
2007. The increase is primarily due to the finalization of the
purchase price allocation and related lives of real estate assets combined at
the time of our IPO and formation transactions, as well as $10.1 million of
incremental depreciation and amortization from the nine properties we acquired
subsequent to the beginning of the second quarter of 2007 including the property
acquisitions described above.
Non-Operating
Income and Expenses
Interest
Expense. Interest expense increased $16.4 million, or 21.4%,
to $93.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared to $76.6
million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The increase was
primarily due to incremental interest from the $150 million borrowed during the
second quarter of 2007, the increase in borrowings outstanding under our
revolving credit facility and the additional $738 million borrowed during 2008
to fund property acquisitions and for general corporate purposes.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Available
Borrowings, Cash Balances and Capital Resources
We had
total indebtedness of $3.7 billion at June 30, 2008, excluding a loan
premium representing the mark-to-market adjustment on variable rate debt assumed
from our predecessor. Please see Note 7 to our consolidated
financial statements included in this Report.
We have a
revolving credit facility with a group of banks led by Bank of America, N.A. and
Banc of America Securities LLC totaling $370 million. At June 30,
2008, there was approximately $296 million available to us under this
credit facility. We have used our revolving credit facility for
general corporate purposes, including acquisition funding, redevelopment and
repositioning opportunities, tenant improvements and capital expenditures, share
equivalent repurchases, recapitalizations and working capital.
We have
historically financed our capital needs through short-term lines of credit and
long-term secured mortgages at floating rates. To mitigate the impact
of fluctuations in short-term interest rates on our cash flow from operations,
we generally enter into interest rate swap or interest rate cap
agreements. At June 30, 2008, 87% of our debt was effectively fixed
at an overall rate of 5.17% by virtue of interest rate swap and interest rate
cap agreements in place at the end of the reporting period. See Notes
7 and 8 to our consolidated financial statements included in this
Report.
At June
30, 2008, our total borrowings under secured loans, excluding the portion of
consolidated debt attributable to our minority partner on the Honolulu Club
joint venture, represented 52.0% of our total market capitalization of
$7.1 billion. Total market capitalization includes our
consolidated debt and the value of common stock and operating partnership units
each based on our common stock closing price at June 30, 2008 on the New York
Stock Exchange of $21.97 per share.
The
nature of our business, and the requirements imposed by REIT rules that we
distribute a substantial majority of our income on an annual basis, will cause
us to have substantial liquidity needs over both the short term and the long
term.
- 24
-
We expect
to meet our short-term liquidity requirements generally through cash provided by
operations and, if necessary, by drawing upon our senior secured revolving
credit facility. However, recent economic events have led to tighter
and more uncertain credit markets. As a result, although we have been
successful in financings during 2008, disruptions in the credit markets could
impact the availability of credit in the future or could impact the rates of any
borrowings we do obtain. Currently, we have approximately
$454 million of principal payments maturing by the end of 2009, consisting
of the $380 million bridge financing borrowed in connection with our March
2008 acquisitions and $74 million under our revolving credit
facility. We anticipate repaying the bridge loan from refinancing
proceeds, available cash and borrowings under our credit facility prior to
maturity. Our credit facility contains two renewal options of one
year each. We anticipate that cash provided by operations and
borrowings under our senior secured revolving credit facility will be sufficient
to meet our liquidity requirements for at least the next 12 months.
Our
long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for
acquisitions, redevelopment and repositioning of properties, non-recurring
capital expenditures, and repayment of indebtedness at maturity. We
do not expect that we will have sufficient funds on hand to cover all of these
long-term cash requirements. We will seek to satisfy these needs
through cash flow from operations, long-term secured and unsecured indebtedness,
the issuance of debt and equity securities, including units in our operating
partnership, property dispositions and joint venture transactions. We
have historically financed our operations, acquisitions and development, through
the use of our revolving credit facility or other short-term acquisition lines
of credit, which we subsequently repay with long-term secured floating rate
mortgage debt. To mitigate the impact of fluctuations in short-term
interest rates on our cash flow from operations, we generally enter into
interest rate swap or interest rate cap agreements at the time we enter into
term borrowings.
We are
also exploring raising capital for acquisitions through an institutional fund,
controlled by an entity affiliated with us, which would receive certain fees as
well as a carried interest in any distributions after the participating
institutional investors receive a return of their invested capital and a
preferred return. If we close such a fund, it is likely that it would
be our exclusive vehicle for our cash acquisitions during the investment period
of the fund. The exact terms of any such fund would be based on
negotiations and market conditions. Any securities offered in such a
fund will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and could not be
offered or sold in the United States absent registration under that act or an
applicable exemption from those registration requirements. Nothing in
the foregoing disclosure constitutes an offer to sell any securities in such a
fund, nor a solicitation of an offer to purchase any such
securities.
Contractual
Obligations
During
the second quarter of 2008, there were no material changes outside the ordinary
course of business in the information regarding specified contractual
obligations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2007.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
At June
30, 2008, we did not have any off-balance sheet financing
arrangements.

Cash
Flows
Net cash
used in investing activities increased $584.3 million to $642.8 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to $58.4 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2007. The increase was primarily due
to a higher level of spending on property acquisitions in the 2008 period
compared to the 2007 period. See Note 3 to our consolidated financial
statements included in this Report.
Net cash
provided by financing activities increased $508.1 million to $548.9 million for
the six months ended June 30, 3008 compared to $40.8 million for the six months
ended June 30, 2007. The increase was primarily due
to borrowings in excess of equity repurchases and payments of
dividends and distributions.
Item
3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market
Risk
During
the first six months of 2008, there were no material changes in the information
regarding market risk contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2007.
We
maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the
Exchange Act is processed, recorded, summarized and reported within the time
periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations and that such information
is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely
decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the
disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and
procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only
reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management
is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of
possible controls and procedures.
As of
June 30, 2008, the end of the period covered by this Report, we carried out an
evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management,
including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, regarding the
effectiveness in design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures
at the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on the
foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded, as
of that time, that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in
ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or
submitted under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange
Commission’s rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to
our management including our principal executive officer and our principal
financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure.
There
have been no significant changes that occurred during the quarter covered by
this Report in our internal control over financial reporting identified in
connection with the evaluation referenced above that has materially affected, or
is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
