NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Organization and Basis of Presentation
Organization
Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust, together with its subsidiaries (the “Company”), is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) engaged in the business of owning, developing, acquiring, managing and leasing community shopping centers located in the Eastern and Midwestern regions of the United States. At June 30, 2011, we owned and managed, either directly or through our interest in real estate joint ventures, a portfolio of 89 shopping centers and one office building, with approximately 20.6 million square feet of gross leaseable area (“GLA”), of which 15.7 million is owned directly by us and our real estate joint ventures. We also owned interests in four parcels of land held for development or sale and four parcels of land adjacent to certain of our existing developed properties. Our land is located in Florida, Georgia, Michigan, Tennessee and Virginia. Most of our properties are anchored by supermarkets and/or national chain stores. The Company’s credit risk, therefore, is concentrated in the retail industry.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and our majority owned subsidiary, the Operating Partnership, Ramco-Gershenson Properties, L.P. (93.2% and 92.9% owned by the Company at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively), and all wholly-owned subsidiaries, including entities in which we have a controlling financial interest or have been determined to be a primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). We have elected to be a REIT for federal income tax purposes. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The information furnished is unaudited and reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to reflect a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10−K.
The preparation of our unaudited financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and reported amounts that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications of prior period amounts have been made in the condensed consolidated financial statements in order to conform to the current presentation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2010, the FASB updated ASC 310 “Receivables” with ASU 2010-20 “Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses”, which requires enhanced disclosures about financing receivables, including the allowance for credit losses, credit quality, and impaired loans. This standard is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2010. We adopted the standard in the fourth quarter of 2010 and it did not have a material impact to our consolidated financial statements.
In May 2011, the FASB updated ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” with ASU 2011-04 “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS”. The amendments change the wording used to describe many of the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements. This standard is to be applied prospectively and is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. We do not expect this update to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB updated ASC 220 “Comprehensive Income” with ASU 2011-05 “Presentation of Comprehensive Income”, which requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. This standard is to be applied retrospectively and is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. We do not expect this update to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

2. Accounts Receivable, Net
We provide for bad debt expense based upon the allowance method of accounting. We continuously monitor the collectability of our accounts receivable from specific tenants, analyze historical bad debts, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in tenant payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for bad debts. Allowances are taken for those balances that we have reason to believe will be uncollectible. When tenants are in bankruptcy, we make estimates of the expected recovery of pre-petition and post-petition claims. The period to resolve these claims can exceed one year. Management believes the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate to absorb currently estimated bad debts. However, if we experience bad debts in excess of the allowance we have established, our operating income would be reduced. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, our allowance for doubtful accounts was approximately $3.0 million and $3.8 million, respectively.
3. Real Estate
Included in our net real estate is income producing shopping center properties that are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization.
We review our investment in real estate, including any related intangible assets, for impairment on a property-by-property basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the remaining estimated useful lives of those assets may warrant revision or the applicable holding period changes and that the carrying value of the property may not be recoverable. There was no impairment loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.
Land held for development or sale represents projects where vertical construction has yet to commence, but which have been identified by us as available for future development if and when market conditions dictate the demand for a new shopping center. Land held for development or sale was $94.3 million and $93.3 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
Construction in progress represents existing development and redevelopment projects. When projects are substantially complete and ready for their intended use, balances are transferred to land or buildings and improvements as appropriate. Construction in progress was $2.7 and $2.6 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

(1) Fixed interest rate until January 2013, and then at LIBOR plus 3.30%. |
Our fixed rate mortgages have interest rates ranging from 5.1% to 7.6%, and are due at various maturity dates from November 2011 through April 2020. Included in fixed rate mortgages at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 were unamortized premium balances related to the fair market value of debt of $0.1 million. Our variable rate mortgages have interest rates ranging from 3.7% to 6.0%, and are due at various dates from December 2011 through June 2012. The mortgage notes, both fixed rate and variable rate, are secured by mortgages on properties that have an approximate net book value of $393.8 million as of June 30, 2011.
On April 29, 2011, we closed on a new $250.0 million unsecured bank facility (the “Credit Facility”) comprised of a $175.0 million revolving line of credit and a $75.0 million term loan. The Credit Facility replaces our prior secured line and secured term loan. The new revolving line of credit and term loan are due in April 2014 and April 2015, respectively. Subject to customary conditions, both the revolving line and the term loan can be extended for one year at our option. Borrowings under the facility are priced at LIBOR plus 200 to 275 basis points depending on our leverage ratio. It is anticipated that funds borrowed under the aforementioned Credit Facility will be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital, capital expenditures, repayment of indebtedness or other corporate activities.
In the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we recorded a one-time write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the prior secured revolving line of credit and term loan of approximately $2.0 million. This amount is included in loss on early extinguishment of debt on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. The remaining $1.5 million in unamortized deferred financing costs related to the prior credit facility will be amortized over the term of the new facility.
At June 30, 2011, outstanding letters of credit issued under the Credit Facility, not reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, were $0.3 million. These letters of credit reduce the availability under the Credit Facility.
The Credit Facility contains financial covenants relating to total leverage, fixed charge coverage ratio, tangible net worth and various other calculations. As of June 30, 2011, we were in compliance with the covenant terms.
In May 2011, we repaid one wholly-owned property mortgage in the amount of $14.3 million. The mortgage bore interest at a fixed rate of 7.6%.
A $9.2 million non-recourse mortgage note that is secured by our wholly-owned Madison Center property located in Madison Heights, Michigan, was due May 1, 2011. The note entered default status in May when we did not repay the note at maturity. The lender is working with us to transfer the property title to the lender and release our obligation. Until we are legally released from our obligation, we will continue to accrue interest at the default rate of 12.5%. Accrued interest on this note, including the default interest, was approximately $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011.
Page 14 of 43
In April 2011, we used net proceeds from our cumulative convertible perpetual preferred share offering to repay our $30.0 million secured bridge loan and reduce borrowings on our Credit Facility. Additionally, in March 2011, the $30.0 million secured term loan facility was repaid in full.
On March 31, 2011, we closed on a new $24.7 million mortgage secured by the Jackson Crossing shopping center in Jackson, Michigan that has an approximate net book value of $27.6 million. The mortgage bears interest at a fixed rate of 5.8% and matures in April 2018.
The mortgage loans encumbering our properties, including properties held by our unconsolidated joint ventures, are generally non-recourse, subject to certain exceptions for which we would be liable for any resulting losses incurred by the lender. These exceptions vary from loan to loan but generally include fraud or a material misrepresentation, misstatement or omission by the borrower, intentional or grossly negligent conduct by the borrower that harms the property or results in a loss to the lender, filing of a bankruptcy petition by the borrower, either directly or indirectly, and certain environmental liabilities. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain events, such as fraud or filing of a bankruptcy petition by the borrower, we or our joint ventures would be liable for the entire outstanding balance of the loan, all interest accrued thereon and certain other costs, including penalties and expenses.
We have entered into mortgage loans which are secured by multiple properties and contain cross-collateralization and cross-default provisions. Cross-collateralization provisions allow a lender to foreclose on multiple properties in the event that we default under the loan. Cross-default provisions allow a lender to foreclose on the related property in the event a default is declared under another loan.

9. Other Liabilities
Other liabilities were $2.7 million and $3.5 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. In December 2010, we acquired The Shoppes at Fox River in Waukesha, Wisconsin. As part of the transaction, we recorded a $1.8 million deferred liability related to the fair value of an earn-out provision if certain spaces that were vacant at acquisition were to become leased in the future. In January 2011, we paid the seller for the leasing of one of the vacant spaces included in the earn-out provision, thereby reducing the deferred liability by approximately $0.6 million. In June 2011, an additional vacant space was leased further reducing the deferred liability by approximately $0.2 million.
Also in the fourth quarter of 2010, we recorded a deferred liability of $1.5 million related to a tax increment financing agreement with the City of West Allis, Wisconsin (“City”) for the redevelopment of the West Allis Towne Centre. The City reimbursed us for certain costs incurred to improve the shopping center which will be repaid to the City over ten years in the form of increased property tax assessments, not to exceed $0.2 million per year until 2020.
Page 15 of 43
10. Fair Value
We utilize fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. Derivative instruments (interest rate swaps) are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, we, from time to time, may be required to record other assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, GAAP establishes three fair value levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. The assessed inputs used in determining any fair value measurement could result in incorrect valuations that could be material to our consolidated financial statements. These levels are:
Level 1
|
Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.
|
Level 2
|
Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.
|
Level 3
|
Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
|
The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for our assets and liabilities recorded at fair value.
Derivative Assets and Liabilities
In the past, we had interest rate swaps for which quoted market prices are not readily available. For those derivatives, we measure fair value on a recurring basis using valuation models that use primarily market observable inputs, such as yield curves. We classify derivative instruments as Level 2. As of June 30, 2011, we did not have any interest rate swaps in effect. Refer to Note 11 for additional information on our derivative financial instruments.
We did not have any material assets or liabilities that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2011.
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables and accounts payable and accrued liabilities are reasonable estimates of their fair values because of the short maturity of these financial instruments. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the carrying amounts of our borrowings under variable rate debt approximated fair value.
We estimated the fair value of fixed rate mortgages using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on our incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements with the same remaining maturity. The following table summarizes the fair value and net book value of properties with fixed rate debt:

The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for our assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis:
Net Real Estate
Our net real estate, including any identifiable intangible assets, is subject to impairment testing on a nonrecurring basis. To estimate fair value, we use discounted cash flow models that include assumptions of the discount rates that market participants would use in pricing the asset. To the extent impairment has occurred, we charge to expense the excess of the carrying value of the property over its estimated fair value. We classify impaired real estate assets as nonrecurring Level 3. As of June 30, 2011, we did not have any material real estate required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
Page 16 of 43
Equity Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
Our equity investments in unconsolidated joint ventures are subject to impairment testing on a nonrecurring basis if a decline in the fair value of the investment below the carrying amount is determined to be a decline that is other-than-temporary. To estimate the fair value of properties held by unconsolidated entities, we use cash flow models, discount rates, and capitalization rates based upon assumptions of the rates that market participants would use in pricing the asset. To the extent other-than-temporary impairment has occurred, we charge to expense the excess of the carrying value of the equity investment over its estimated fair value. We classify other-than-temporarily impaired equity investments in unconsolidated entities as nonrecurring Level 3. We did not have any material equity investments in unconsolidated joint ventures that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2011.
11. Derivative Financial Instruments
We utilize interest rate swap agreements for risk management purposes to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on our variable rate debt. On the date we enter into an interest rate swap, the derivative is designated as a hedge against the variability of cash flows that are to be paid in connection with a recognized liability. Subsequent changes in the fair value of a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge that is determined to be highly effective are recorded in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) until earnings are affected by the variability of cash flows of the hedged transaction. The differential between fixed and variable rates to be paid or received is accrued, as interest rates change, and recognized currently as interest expense in the consolidated statement of income.
As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had no interest rate swap agreements in effect. As of June 30, 2010, we had interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional of $90.0 million. Based on rates in effect at June 30, 2010, the agreements provided for fixed rates ranging from 6.4% to 6.7% on a portion of our prior secured credit facility. All outstanding interest rate swaps expired in December of 2010.
The effect of derivative financial instruments on our condensed consolidated statements of income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 is summarized as follows:

13. Shareholders’ Equity
On April 6, 2011, we completed an $80.0 million (1,600,000 shares) offering of 7.25% Series D Cumulative Convertible Perpetual Preferred Shares of beneficial interest (the “Series D Preferred Shares”). The annual dividend on each Series D Preferred Share is $3.625 per share and is payable quarterly as declared by our board of trustees. Each preferred share has a liquidation preference of $50.00 per share and is convertible, at the holder’s option at any time. The Series D Preferred Shares are not redeemable by us. On April 29, 2011, we closed on an additional $20.0 million, or 400,000 preferred shares, relating to a re-opening of the same security. Net proceeds from the transactions of $96.7 million were used to repay our $30.0 million secured bridge loan and reduce borrowings on our secured revolving credit facility.
Additionally, during the six months ended June 30, 2011, we issued 673,000 common shares through a controlled equity offering generating $8.8 million in net proceeds.
14. Share-based Compensation Plans
As of June 30, 2011, we have two share-based compensation plans in effect; 1) The 2009 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) under which our compensation committee may grant, subject to the Company’s performance conditions as specified by the compensation committee, restricted shares, restricted share units, options and other awards to trustees, officers and other key employees. The LTIP allows us to issue up to 0.9 million shares of our common stock or stock options, of which 0.3 million are available for issuance. The maximum number of shares that can be awarded under the LTIP to any one person is 100,000 shares per year. Vesting periods for restricted stock and stock options are determined by our compensation committee. We measure compensation costs for restricted stock awards based on the fair value of our common stock at the date of the grant and recognize the expense over the requisite service period. The fair values of each option granted used in determining the share-based compensation expense is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The performance-based restricted stock is earned based on the achievement of specific performance measures established by our compensation committee over a period of three years; and 2) the 2008 Restricted Share Plan for Non-Employee Trustees (the “Trustees’ Plan”) which provides for granting up to 160,000 restricted shares awards to non-employee trustees of the Company, of which 114,000 shares are available for issuance.
Page 19 of 43
For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, we recognized total share-based compensation expense of $0.9 million and $0.4 million (net of a $0.5 million adjustment), respectively.

For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, we recognized expense related to restricted share grants of approximately $0.9 million and $0.3 million (net of $0.5 million adjustment), respectively.
Page 20 of 43
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we granted 111,886 shares of service-based restricted stock that vest over five years and the expense is recognized on a graded vesting basis. Additionally, we granted 14,000 and 14,273 shares to non-employee trustees that vest over one year and three years, respectively. Also during the six months ended June 30, 2011, we granted 102,686 of performance-based awards that are earned subject to a future performance measurement based on a three-year total shareholder return peer comparison (“TSR Grant”). Once the performance criterion is met and the actual number of shares earned is determined, certain shares will vest immediately while others will vest over an additional service period. We determine the grant date fair value of TSR Grants based upon a Monte Carlo Simulation model and will recognize the compensation expense ratably over the requisite service period.
As of June 30, 2011, we had $4.3 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested restricted shares and options granted under our plans. This expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 4.8 years.
15. Income Taxes
We conduct our operations with the intent of meeting the requirements applicable to a REIT under sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code. In order to maintain our qualification as a REIT, we are required to distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, excluding net capital gain, to our shareholders. As long as we qualify as a REIT, we will generally not be liable for federal corporate income taxes.
Certain of our operations, including property management and asset management, as well as ownership of certain land, are conducted through our Taxable REIT Subsidiaries (“TRSs”) which allows us to provide certain services and conduct certain activities that are not generally considered as qualifying REIT activities.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the impact of temporary differences between the amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the bases of such assets and liabilities as measured by tax laws. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the amount where realization is more likely than not assured after considering all available evidence, including expected taxable earnings and potential tax planning strategies. Our temporary differences primarily relate to deferred compensation, depreciation and net operating loss carryforwards.
In May 2011, the State of Michigan signed bills into law that replaced the Michigan Business Tax (“MBT”) with a six percent Corporate Income Tax that will be effective beginning January 1, 2012. The repeal of the MBT resulted in the de-recognition of the related deferred tax assets and liabilities. Therefore, we recorded additional income tax expense of approximately $0.8 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 as a result of this tax law change. These amounts are included in income tax provision (benefit) on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
As of June 30, 2011, we had a federal and state deferred tax asset and liability of $0.6 million and $0, respectively. We believe that it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to recognize the net deferred tax assets. These future operations are primarily dependent upon the profitability of our TRSs, the timing and amounts of gains on land sales, and other factors affecting the results of operations of the TRSs.
During the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, we recorded an income tax (provision) benefit of approximately ($0.8) million and $0.2 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the income tax (provision) benefit was approximately ($0.9) million and $0.4 million, respectively.
16. Commitments and Contingencies
Construction Costs
In connection with the development and expansion of various shopping centers as of June 30, 2011, we had entered into agreements for construction costs of approximately $5.0 million.
Deferred Liabilities
At June 30, 2011, we had certain deferred liability arrangements totaling $2.7 million. See Note 9 for further information.
Litigation
We are currently involved in certain litigation arising in the ordinary course of business.
Page 21 of 43
In December 2008, John Carlo , Inc. ("Carlo") filed a lawsuit against the Company and J. Raymond Construction Company in the Circuit Court of the Fourth Judicial District in Duval, Florida related to a dispute regarding final payment for concrete and road work for a development project in Florida. On March 10, 2011, a settlement was reached as a result of which Carlo has been paid an additional amount for concrete and road work improvements relating to the 2008 River City Marketplace development project. That amount has been added to our investment in income producing property for accounting purposes. In connection with that settlement, the Carlo suit has been dismissed with prejudice.
Leases
We have an operating lease for our corporate office space in Michigan for a term expiring in 2014. We also have operating leases for office space in Florida and land at one of our shopping centers. Total amounts expensed relating to these leases were $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.
17. Subsequent Events
We have evaluated subsequent events through the date that the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued.
On July 11, 2011, we sold the Sunshine Plaza Shopping Center located in Tamarac, Florida for $15.0 million.
On July 27, 2011, we repaid a land loan in the amount of $2.2 million related to land held for development in Jacksonville, Florida. The land loan bore interest at a fixed rate of 6.0%.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements, including the respective notes thereto, which are included in this Form 10-Q.
Overview
We are a fully integrated, self-administered, publicly-traded REIT which owns, develops, acquires, manages and leases community shopping centers in the Eastern and Midwestern regions of the United States. At June 30, 2011, we owned and managed, either directly or through our interest in real estate joint ventures, a portfolio of 89 shopping centers and one office building, with 20.6 million square feet of GLA, of which 15.7 million is owned directly by us and our real estate joint ventures. We also owned interests in four parcels of land held for development or sale and four parcels of land adjacent to certain of our existing developed properties. Our land is located in Florida, Georgia, Michigan, Tennessee and Virginia. Our core portfolio, which includes joint venture properties was 92.1% leased at June 30, 2011. Including properties slated for redevelopment, our overall portfolio was 90.3% leased.
Economic Outlook
The retail shopping center sector has been negatively affected by general economic conditions that have impacted our tenants’ retail operations. These conditions have forced weaker retailers, in some cases, to declare bankruptcy and/or close stores. Certain retailers have sought rent relief from us as and/or announced store closings even though they have not filed for bankruptcy protection. Any reduction in our tenants’ abilities to pay base rent, percentage rent or other charges, may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Further, our ability to re-lease vacant spaces may be negatively impacted by the slow economic recovery. While we believe the locations of our centers and diverse tenant base should mitigate the negative impact of the economic environment, we may continue to see an increase in vacancy that will have a negative impact on our revenue and bad debt expense. We continue to monitor our tenants’ operating performances as well as trends in the retail industry to evaluate any future impact.
Business Strategy
We intend to maximize shareholder value through a well-defined business strategy that incorporates the following elements:
·
|
Leasing and managing our shopping centers to increase occupancy, maximize rental income, and control operating expenses and capital expenditures;
|
·
|
Redeveloping our centers to increase gross leasable area, reconfigure space for credit tenants, create outparcels, sell excess land, and generally make the centers more desirable for our tenants and their shoppers;
|
·
|
Acquiring new shopping centers that are located in targeted metropolitan markets and that provide opportunities to add value through intensive leasing, management, or redevelopment;
|
·
|
Developing our land held for development into income-producing investment property, subject to market demand, availability of capital and adequate returns on our incremental capital;
|
·
|
Selling available-for-sale land parcels and using the proceeds to pay down debt or reinvest in our business;
|
·
|
Maintaining a strong and flexible balance sheet by capitalizing our Company with a moderate ratio of debt to equity and by financing our investment activities with various forms and sources of capital; and
|
·
|
Managing our overall enterprise to create an efficient organization with a strong corporate culture and transparent disclosure for all stakeholders.
|
We periodically review our performance on these endeavors and adjust our operational and financial tactics accordingly.
Although the current retail real estate environment remains challenging, we were able to execute upon our strategy by continuing to de-leverage our balance sheet and recycle capital through strategic acquisitions and dispositions of our shopping center portfolio. We accomplished the following activity during the three months ended June 30, 2011:
Significant Transactions
Activity generated in the second quarter of 2011:

The project is in a joint venture in which we own a 20% interest and includes the redevelopment of a Whole Foods Market to a new 35,000 square foot space. The total projected cost of the project is approximately $6.5 million, of which $1.3 million is our proportionate share. The project is expected to stabilize in the second half of 2012.
During the first quarter of 2011, we completed two redevelopment projects. One redevelopment project of a wholly-owned property was located in West Allis, Wisconsin for a total investment of approximately $12.7 million. We also completed a redevelopment project in a joint venture in which we have a 30% ownership interest located in West Bloomfield, Michigan for a total investment of approximately $9.6 million, of which $2.9 million was our proportionate share.

Our development policy is to start vertical construction on new development projects only after the project has received entitlements, significant anchor commitments, construction financing and joint venture partner commitments, if appropriate. We are in the entitlement and pre-leasing phases at the development projects listed above. We do not expect to secure financing and to identify joint venture partners until the entitlement and pre-leasing phases are complete.

Total revenue increased $1.1 million, or 3.7%, to $30.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $28.9 million in 2010, primarily due to a $1.6 million increase in minimum rent primarily related to our acquisitions in 2011 and the second half of 2010, partially offset by a $0.4 million decrease in other property income mostly attributable to lease rejection income from a bankruptcy claim earned in 2010.
Recoverable property operating expense increased by $0.5 million, or 6.6%, to $8.0 million in 2011 from $7.5 million in 2010. The increase was primarily related to our acquisitions in 2011 and the second half of 2010.
Other non-recoverable operating expense decreased by $0.3 million, or 33.7%, to $0.6 million in 2011 from $0.9 million in 2010. The decrease was primarily due to lower bad debt expense.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased $2.4 million or 32.2%, to $9.7 million in 2011 from $7.3 million. The increase was primarily due to our acquisitions in 2011 and the second half of 2010.
General and administrative expenses were $4.9 million in 2011, relatively unchanged from 2010.
Other expense decreased $0.1 million, or 33.7%, to $0.2 million in 2011 from $0.3 million in 2010. The decrease was primarily related to lower real estate tax expense in 2011 on development projects that were placed on hold in 2010.
Gain on sale of real estate increased $1.7 million in 2011. The increase was attributable to the sale of an outparcel in Osprey, Florida in 2011 that generated a net gain of $2.2 million.
Interest expense decreased $1.0 million, or 12.1%, to $6.9 million in 2011 from $7.9 million in 2010 due primarily to a lower revolving line of credit balance.
Amortization of deferred financing fees decreased $0.1 million, or 25.5%, to $0.5 million in 2011 from $0.6 million in 2010.
Page 26 of 43
Loss on early extinguishment of debt was $2.0 million and $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. In the second quarter of 2011, we recorded a one-time write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the prior secured revolving line of credit and term loan of approximately $2.0 million. No similar charges were incurred in 2010.
The income tax provision was $0.8 million in the second quarter of 2011 as compared to a tax benefit of $0.2 million in 2010. The increase in income tax expense was primarily due to the repeal of the Michigan Business Tax that resulted in a one-time write-off of net deferred tax assets of $0.8 million in 2011. Refer to Note 15 of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
Income from discontinued operations was $6.3 million in 2011 compared to a loss from discontinued operations of $1.9 million. In the second quarter of 2011, we sold the Lantana Shopping Center located in Lantana, Florida for a net gain of $6.2 million. In the second quarter of 2010, we sold the Ridgeview Crossing shopping center located in Elkin, North Carolina for a net loss of $2.1 million.
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest increased $1.1 million primarily due to the acquisition of our partner’s 80% interest in the Ramco RM Hartland SC LLC joint venture in the first quarter 2011 and higher net income in 2011.
In the second quarter of 2011, we declared dividends of $1.6 million to preferred shareholders resulting from the April 2011 preferred equity offering.

Total revenue increased $1.7 million, or 2.9%, to $60.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $58.6 million in 2010, primarily due to a $1.9 million increase in minimum rent primarily related to our acquisitions in 2011 and 2010, partially offset by a $0.1 million decrease in other property income mostly attributable to lease rejection income from a bankruptcy claim earned in 2010.
Recoverable property operating expense increased by $1.0 million, or 6.1%, to $16.6 million in 2011 from $15.6 million in 2010. The increase was primarily related to our acquisitions in 2011 and 2010.
Other non-recoverable operating expense decreased by $0.7 million, or 34.6%, to $1.4 million in 2011 from $2.1 million in 2010. The decrease was primarily due to lower bad debt expense.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased $3.5 million or 23.9%, to $18.4 million in 2011 from $14.9 million. The increase was primarily due to our acquisitions in 2010.
General and administrative expenses increased by $1.0 million, or 10.9%, to $9.9 million in 2011 from $8.9 million in 2010. The increase in 2011 was primarily related to the following:
·
|
an increase of $1.0 million in net compensation expense due primarily to annual pay increases in 2011, lower capitalization of development and leasing salary and related costs in 2011, and a $0.5 million adjustment to long-term incentive expense in 2010 for not meeting performance measures;
|
·
|
an increase in trustee fees of $0.2 million;
|
·
|
an increase in acquisition costs of $0.1 million; partially offset by
|
·
|
a decrease in legal fees of approximately $0.3 million related to our defense against a lawsuit with a subcontractor in 2010.
|
Other expense decreased $0.2 million, or 35.1%, to $0.4 million in 2011 from $0.6 million in 2010. The decrease was primarily related to lower real estate tax expense in 2011 on development projects that were placed on hold in 2010.
Page 28 of 43
Gain on sale of real estate increased $1.9 million in 2011 to $2.4 million from $0.5 million in 2010. The increase was primarily attributable to the sale of an outparcel in Osprey, Florida in 2011 that generated a net gain of $2.2 million.
Interest expense increased $0.6 million, or 4.1%, to $15.1 million in 2011 from $15.7 million in 2010 due primarily to a higher revolving line of credit balance and lower capitalized interest.
Amortization of deferred financing fees decreased $0.1 million, or 9.7%, to $1.1 million in 2011 from $1.2 million in 2010.
In the first quarter of 2010, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $2.7 million resulting from other–than-temporary declines in the fair market value of various equity investments in unconsolidated joint ventures.
Loss on early extinguishment of debt was $2.0 million and $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. In the second quarter of 2011, we recorded a one-time write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the prior secured revolving line of credit and term loan of approximately $2.0 million. No similar charges were incurred in 2010.
The income tax provision was $0.9 million in 2011 as compared to a tax benefit of $0.4 million in 2010. The increase in income tax expense was primarily due to the repeal of the Michigan Business Tax that resulted in a one-time write-off of net deferred tax assets of $0.8 million in the second quarter of 2011. Refer to Note 15 of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.
Income from discontinued operations was $6.6 million in 2011 compared to a loss from discontinued operations of $1.7 million. In 2011, we sold the Lantana Shopping Center located in Lantana, Florida for a net gain of $6.2 million. In 2010, we sold the Ridgeview Crossing shopping center located in Elkin, North Carolina for a net loss of $2.1 million.
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interest increased $1.8 million primarily due to the acquisition of our partner’s 80% interest in the Ramco RM Hartland SC LLC joint venture in the first quarter 2011 and higher net income in 2011.
In the second quarter of 2011, we declared dividends of $1.6 million to preferred shareholders resulting from the April 2011 preferred equity offering.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The majority of our cash is generated from operations and is dependent on the rents that we are able to charge and collect from our tenants. The principal uses of our liquidity and capital resources are for operations, developments, redevelopments, including expansion and renovation programs, acquisitions, and debt repayment. In addition, we make dividend payments in accordance with REIT requirements for distributing the substantial majority of our taxable income on an annual basis. We anticipate that the combination of cash on hand, cash from operations, availability under our credit facilities, additional financings, equity offerings, and the sale of existing properties will satisfy our expected working capital requirements through at least the next 12 months. Although we believe that the combination of factors discussed above will provide sufficient liquidity, no such assurance can be given.
At June 30, 2011, we had $6.3 million and $6.8 million in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, respectively. Restricted cash was comprised primarily of funds held in escrow to pay real estate taxes, insurance premiums, and certain capital expenditures.
Short-Term Liquidity Requirements
Our short-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay operating expenses associated with our operating properties, interest and scheduled principal payments on our debt, expected dividend payments (including distributions to preferred shareholders and Operating Partnership unit holders) and capital expenditures related to tenant improvements and redevelopment activities.
In the second half of 2011, we have approximately $8.5 million of debt maturities related to mortgages payable, excluding the non-recourse mortgage loan at Madison Center, which is in default (Refer to Note 8) and a $2.2 million land loan that was repaid in July 2011 subsequent to quarter end. We anticipate repaying this debt with borrowings under our line of credit. In the second quarter of 2011, we repaid the $30.0 million bridge loan and a portion of our borrowings under our credit facility with the proceeds generated from our preferred equity offering, which closed in April 2011. As opportunities arise and market conditions permit, we will continue to pursue the strategy of selling mature properties or non-core assets that no longer meet our investment criteria. Our ability to obtain acceptable selling prices and satisfactory terms and financing will impact the timing of future sales. We anticipate using net proceeds from the sale of properties to reduce outstanding debt.
Page 29 of 43
Long-Term Liquidity Requirements
Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay indebtedness at maturity, potential acquisitions of properties, redevelopment of existing properties, the development of land held and non-recurring capital expenditures.
On April 29, 2011, we closed on a new $250.0 million unsecured bank facility comprised of a $175.0 million revolving line of credit and a $75.0 million term loan. The facility replaces our prior secured line which was scheduled to mature in December 2012 and bore interest at LIBOR plus 350 basis points with a 2% LIBOR floor. The new revolving line of credit and term loan have terms of three and four years, respectively. Subject to customary conditions, both the revolving line and the term loan can be extended for one year at our option. Borrowings under the facility are priced at LIBOR plus 200 to 275 basis points depending on our leverage ratio. As of June 30, 2011, $141.7 million was available to be drawn on our unsecured revolving credit facility subject to certain covenants that may affect availability.
As a result of closing both our sale of $100.0 million of convertible perpetual preferred stock and our new $250.0 million unsecured bank facility in the second quarter of 2011, we have paid off a substantial portion of our debt maturities in 2011 and 2012. In addition, we have reduced our borrowings under our new $175.0 million line of credit to approximately $33.0 million. We have also extended the maturity of our bank debt to 2014 and 2015, obtained an option for a further one-year extension at our option, and released the mortgages that secured our prior bank facility. The replacement of our prior secured bank facility with our new unsecured bank facility enhances our financial flexibility by providing for additions to and removals from the pool of unencumbered properties that comprise a borrowing base, subject to certain criteria. Our financing strategy is to maintain ample liquidity, financial strength, and financial flexibility by sourcing equity and debt capital in appropriate balance, managing our debt maturity schedule, and monitoring our exposure to interest rate risk.

For the six months ended June 30, 2011, our cash flows were as follows compared to the same period in 2010:
We generated $21.0 million in cash flows from operating activities as compared to $21.6 million. Cash flows from operating activities were lower mainly due to lower net cash inflows for accounts receivable in 2011. Investing activities used $50.1 million of cash flows as compared to $19.6 million in 2010. Cash flows used in investing activities were higher in 2011 due to higher additions to real estate, investments in unconsolidated entities primarily to pay off two joint venture loans, and the purchase of our partner’s equity interest in a consolidated joint venture for $1.0 million. Additionally, proceeds from sales of real estate were higher in 2011 by $8.9 million. Cash flows provided by financing activities were $25.2 million as compared to $2.2 million. We received net proceeds of $96.7 million from the issuance of preferred shares in 2011. In 2011, we received net proceeds from the issuance of common shares of $8.8 million as compared to $75.6 million in 2010. Additionally, we repaid a net of $64.1 million of mortgages and notes payable in 2011 as compared to repaying a net of $61.2 million in 2010. In 2011, we paid cash dividends to common shareholders of $12.5 million as compared to $10.1 million in 2010 due to the increase in number of common shares outstanding from equity offerings.
Dividends and Equity
Under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“the Code”), as a REIT we must distribute annually to our shareholders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, excluding net capital gain. Distributions paid are at the discretion of our Board of Trustees and depend on our actual net income available to common shareholders, cash flow, financial condition, capital requirements, restrictions in financing arrangements, the annual distribution requirements under REIT provisions of the Code and such other factors as our Board of Trustees deems relevant.
Page 30 of 43
We declared a quarterly cash dividend distribution of $0.16325 per common share paid to common shareholders of record on June 20, 2011, unchanged from the dividend paid of $0.16325 per share in the comparable quarter of 2010. Our dividend policy has not changed in that we expect to continue making distributions to shareholders of at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, excluding net capital gain, in order to maintain qualification as a REIT. On an annualized basis, our current dividend is above our estimated minimum required distribution.
Additionally, we declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.85590 per preferred share to preferred shareholders of record on June 20, 2011 to cover the period from April 6, 2011 to June 30, 2011.
Distributions paid by us are funded from cash flows from operating activities. To the extent that cash flows from operating activities were insufficient to pay total distributions for any period, alternative funding sources are used as shown in the following table. Examples of alternative funding sources may include proceeds from sales of real estate and bank borrowings. Although we may use alternative sources of cash to fund distributions in a given period, we expect that distribution requirements for an entire year will be met with cash flows from operating activities.

In the first half of 2011, we issued 0.673 million common shares through a controlled equity offering generating $8.8 million in net proceeds. Additionally, in the second quarter of 2011, we issued 2.0 million convertible cumulative perpetual preferred shares generating $96.7 million in net proceeds.
Debt
In May 2011, we repaid one wholly-owned property mortgage in the amount of $14.3 million. The mortgage bore interest at a fixed rate of 7.6%.
A $9.2 million non-recourse mortgage note that is secured by our wholly-owned Madison Center property located in Madison Heights, Michigan, was due May 1, 2011. The note entered default status in May when we did not repay the note at maturity. The lender is working with us to transfer the property title to the lender and release our obligation. Until we are legally released from our obligation, we will continue to accrue interest at the default rate of 12.5%. Accrued interest on this note, including the default interest, was approximately $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011.
In April 2011, we used net proceeds from our cumulative convertible perpetual preferred offering to repay our $30.0 million secured bridge loan and reduce borrowings on our Credit Facility. Additionally, in March 2011, the $30.0 million secured term loan facility was repaid in full.
On March 31, 2011, we closed on a new $24.7 million mortgage secured by the Jackson Crossing shopping center in Jackson, Michigan. The mortgage bears a fixed rate of 5.8% and matures in April 2018.
It is anticipated that funds borrowed under our credit facilities will be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital, capital expenditures, the repayment of indebtedness or other corporate activities. For further information on the credit facilities and other debt refer to Note 8 of the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Page 31 of 43
At June 30, 2011, our variable rate debt accounted for approximately $130.3 million of outstanding debt with a weighted average interest rate of 2.8%. Variable rate debt, net of cash on hand, accounted for approximately 24.9% of our total net debt and 11.1% of our total market capitalization. We did not have any interest rate swap agreements in effect at June 30, 2011.
At June 30, 2011, we had $361.9 million of mortgage loans, both fixed and floating rate, encumbering certain consolidated properties. Such mortgage loans are non-recourse, subject to certain exceptions for which we would be liable for any resulting losses incurred by the lender. These exceptions vary from loan to loan but generally include fraud or a material misrepresentation, misstatement or omission by the borrower, intentional or grossly negligent conduct by the borrower that harms the property or results in a loss to the lender, filing of a bankruptcy petition by the borrower, either directly or indirectly, and certain environmental liabilities. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain of such events, such as fraud or filing of a bankruptcy petition by the borrower, we would be liable for the entire outstanding balance of the loan, all interest accrued thereon and certain other costs, penalties and expenses.
Off Balance Sheet Debt
Real Estate Joint Ventures
We consolidate entities in which we own less than 100% equity interest if we have a controlling interest or are the primary beneficiary in a variable interest entity, as defined in the Consolidation Topic of FASB ASC 810. From time to time, we enter into joint venture arrangements from which we believe we can benefit by owning a partial interest in a property.
As of June 30, 2011, we had eight equity investments in unconsolidated joint venture entities in which we owned 50% or less of the total ownership interest. Refer to Note 5 of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements. We review our equity investments in unconsolidated entities for impairment on a venture-by-venture basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the equity investment may not be recoverable. In the first quarter of 2010, we recorded an impairment charge of $2.7 million resulting from other-than-temporary declines in the fair market value of various equity investments in unconsolidated joint ventures. We had no impairment loss for the six months ended June 30, 2011.
We have a 30% ownership interest in our Ramco Lion joint venture which owns a portfolio of 16 properties totaling 3.2 million square feet of GLA. As of June 30, 2011, the properties had consolidated equity of $308.4 million. Our total investment in the venture at June 30, 2011 was $86.4 million. The Ramco Lion joint venture has total debt obligations, which other than customary carve-outs are nonrecourse to us, of approximately $211.3 million with maturity dates ranging from 2012 through 2020. Our proportionate share of the total debt is $63.0 million.
We have a 20% ownership interest in our Ramco 450 joint venture which is a portfolio of eight properties totaling 1.7 million square feet of GLA. As of June 30, 2011, the properties in the portfolio had consolidated equity of $133.7 million. Our total investment in the venture at June 30, 2011 was $16.4 million. The Ramco 450 venture total debt obligations, which other than customary carve-outs are nonrecourse to us, of approximately $171.0 million with maturity dates range from 2013 through 2017. Our proportionate share of the total debt is $34.3 million.
We also have ownership interests ranging from 20% - 50% in six smaller joint ventures that each own one or two properties. As of June 30, 2011, our total investment in these ventures was $9.3 million and our proportionate share of the total non-recourse debt was $10.0 million with maturity dates ranging from 2012 through 2016. One of these joint ventures owns a single shopping center in Davie, Florida that was classified as held-for-sale at June 30, 2011. The joint venture had debt of approximately $11.6 million at June 30, 2011, of which $4.6 million was our proportionate share. Refer to Note 5 of the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for more information related to our real estate joint ventures.

(1) Amounts represent balance of obligation for the remainder of 2011.
|
At June 30, 2011, we did not have any contractual obligations that required or allowed settlement, in whole or in part, with consideration other than cash.
We anticipate that the combination of cash on hand, cash provided from operating activities, the availability under the Credit Facility ($141.7 million at June 30, 2011 subject to covenants), our access to the capital markets and the sale of existing properties will satisfy our expected working capital requirements through at least the next 12 months. Although we believe that the combination of factors discussed above will provide sufficient liquidity, no assurance can be given.
Mortgages and notes payable
See the analysis of our debt included in “Liquidity and Capital Resources” above.
Employment Contracts
At June 30, 2011, we had employment contracts with our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer that contain minimum guaranteed compensation. All other employees are subject to at-will employment.
Operating and Capital Leases
We lease office space for our corporate headquarters and our Florida office under operating leases. We also have an operating lease at our Taylors Square shopping center and a capital ground lease at our Gaines Marketplace shopping center for which we may be obligated to purchase the land parcel.
Construction Costs
In connection with the development and expansion of various shopping centers as of June 30, 2011, we have entered into agreements for construction activities with an aggregate cost of approximately $5.0 million.
Planned Capital Spending
We are focused on our core strengths of enhancing the value of our existing portfolio of shopping centers through successful leasing efforts and the completion of our redevelopment projects currently in process.
Page 33 of 43
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we spent approximately $11.8 million on capital expenditures including tenant allowances, leasing commissions paid to third-party brokers, legal costs related to lease documents, capitalized leasing and construction costs, renovations, and roof and parking lot repairs.
For the remainder of 2011, we anticipate spending approximately $11.5 million for capital expenditures.
Capitalization
At June 30, 2011, our total market capitalization was $1.1 billion. Our market capitalization consisted of $498.2 million of net debt (including property-specific mortgages, an unsecured revolving credit facility, junior subordinated notes, and a capital lease obligation), $516.1 million of common shares and OP Units, and $99.8 million of convertible perpetual preferred shares (based on a market price of $49.92 per share at Jun 30, 2011). Our net debt to total market capitalization was 44.7% at June 30, 2011, as compared to 54.4% at June 30, 2010. The decrease in total net debt to market capitalization was due primarily to the impact of the April 2011 preferred equity offering and the increase in the price per common share from $10.10 at June 30, 2010 to $12.38 at June 30, 2011. Our outstanding debt at June 30, 2011 had a weighted average interest rate of 5.1%, and consisted of $367.7 million of fixed rate debt and $130.3 million of variable rate debt. Outstanding letters of credit issued under the credit facility totaled approximately $0.3 million at June 30, 2011.
At June 30, 2011, the noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership represented a 6.8% ownership in the Operating Partnership. The OP Units may, under certain circumstances, be exchanged for our common shares of beneficial interest on a one-for-one basis. We, as sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, have the option, but not the obligation, to settle exchanged OP Units held by others in cash based on the current trading price of our common shares of beneficial interest. Assuming the exchange of all OP Units, there would have been 41,371,752 of our common shares of beneficial interest outstanding at June 30, 2011, with a market value of approximately $512.2 million.
Inflation
Inflation has been relatively low in recent years and has not had a significant detrimental impact on the results of our operations. Should inflation rates increase in the future, substantially all of our tenant leases contain provisions designed to partially mitigate the negative impact of inflation in the near term. Such lease provisions include clauses that require our tenants to reimburse us for real estate taxes and many of the operating expenses we incur. Also, many of our leases provide for periodic increases in base rent which are either of a fixed amount or based on changes in the consumer price index and/or percentage rents (where the tenant pays us rent based on a percentage of its sales). Significant inflation rate increases over a prolonged period of time may have a material adverse impact on our business.
Funds from Operations
We consider funds from operations, also known as “FFO,” an appropriate supplemental measure of the financial performance of an equity REIT. Under the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT) definition, FFO represents net income attributable to common shareholders, excluding extraordinary items (as defined under GAAP) and gains (losses) on sales of depreciable property, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of financing costs), and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO is intended to exclude GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate investments, which assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes ratably over time. Historically, however, real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions and many companies utilize different depreciable lives and methods. Because FFO adds back depreciation and amortization unique to real estate, and excludes gains and losses from depreciable property dispositions and extraordinary items, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, acquisition and development activities and interest costs, which provides a perspective of our financial performance not immediately apparent from net income attributable to common shareholders determined in accordance with GAAP. In addition, FFO does not include the cost of capital improvements, including capitalized interest.
For the reasons described above we believe that FFO provides us and our investors with an important indicator of our operating performance. This measure of performance is used by us and other REITS for several business purposes, and it provides a recognized measure of performance other than GAAP net income attributable to common shareholders, which may include non-cash items. Other real estate companies may calculate FFO in a different manner.
Page 34 of 43
We recognize FFO’s limitations when compared to GAAP net income attributable to common shareholders. FFO does not represent amounts available for needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations, or other commitments and uncertainties. In addition, FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs, including the payment of dividends. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income attributable to common shareholders (computed in accordance with GAAP) or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. FFO is simply used as an additional indicator of our operating performance.
The following table illustrates the calculations of FFO:

Forward Looking Statements
This document 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. These forward-looking statements represent our expectations, plans or beliefs concerning future events and may be identified by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “continue,” “predict” or similar terms. Although the forward-looking statements made in this document are based on our good faith beliefs, reasonable assumptions and our best judgment based upon current information, certain factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, including: our success or failure in implementing our business strategy; economic conditions generally and in the commercial real estate and finance markets specifically; our cost of capital, which depends in part on our asset quality, our relationships with lenders and other capital providers; our business prospects and outlook; changes in governmental regulations, tax rates and similar matters; our continuing to qualify as a REIT; and other factors discussed elsewhere in this document and our other filings with the SEC, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We have exposure to interest rate risk on our variable rate debt obligations. Based on market conditions, we may manage our exposure to interest rate risk by entering into interest rate swap agreements to hedge our variable rate debt. At June 30, 2011, we did not have any interest rate swap agreements in effect. We are not subject to any foreign currency exchange rate risk or commodity price risk, or other material rate or price risks. Based on our debt and interest rates at June 30, 2011, a 100 basis point change in interest rates would impact our future earnings and cash flows by approximately $1.3 million annually. We believe that a 100 basis point change in interest rates would impact the fair value of our total outstanding debt at June 30, 2011 by approximately $13.8 million.
The following table sets forth information as of June 30, 2011 concerning our long-term debt obligations, including principal cash flows by scheduled maturity, weighted average interest rates of maturing amounts and fair market:

We estimated the fair value of our fixed rate mortgages using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on our incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements with the same remaining maturity. Considerable judgment is required to develop estimated fair values of financial instruments. The table incorporates only those exposures that exist at June 30, 2011 and does not consider those exposures or positions which could arise after that date or firm commitments as of such date. Therefore, the information presented therein has limited predictive value. Our actual interest rate fluctuations will depend on the exposures that arise during the period and on market interest rates at that time.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), such as this report on Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow 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 designed control objectives, and therefore management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
We carried out an assessment as of June 30, 2011 of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. This assessment was done under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based on such evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2011.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the quarter ended June 30, 2011, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
