EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
|
(1)
|
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
|
The accompanying unaudited financial statements of EastGroup Properties, Inc. (“EastGroup” or “the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In management’s opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements contained in the
2013
annual report on Form 10-K and the notes thereto. Certain reclassifications have been made in the 2013 consolidated financial statements to conform to the 2014 presentation.
|
(2)
|
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
|
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of EastGroup Properties, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiaries and its investment in any joint ventures in which the Company has a controlling interest. At
June 30, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
, the Company had a controlling interest in
two
joint ventures: the
80%
owned University Business Center and the
80%
owned Castilian Research Center. The Company records
100%
of the joint ventures’ assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses with noncontrolling interests provided for in accordance with the joint venture agreements. The equity method of accounting is used for the Company’s
50%
undivided tenant-in-common interest in Industry Distribution Center II. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
|
(3)
|
USE OF ESTIMATES
|
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses during the reporting period and to disclose material contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
|

|
REAL ESTATE PROPERTIES
|
EastGroup has one reportable segment – industrial properties. These properties are concentrated in major Sunbelt markets of the United States, primarily in the states of Florida, Texas, Arizona, California and North Carolina, have similar economic characteristics and also meet the other criteria permitting the properties to be aggregated into one reportable segment.
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows (including estimated future expenditures necessary to substantially complete the asset) expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. As of
June 30, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
, the Company determined that no impairment charges on the Company’s real estate properties were necessary.
Depreciation of buildings and other improvements is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of generally
40
years for buildings and
3
to
15
years for improvements. Building improvements are capitalized, while maintenance and repair expenses are c
harged to expense as incurred. Significant renovations and improvements that improve or extend the useful life of the assets are capitalized. Depreciation expense for continuing and discontinued operations was $
14,094,000
and $
28,067,000
for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2014
, respectively, and $
13,494,000
and $
26,551,000
for the same periods in 2013.

DEVELOPMENT
|
During the period in which a property is under development, costs associated with development (i.e., land, construction costs, interest expense, property taxes and other direct and indirect costs associated with development) are aggregated into the total capitalized costs of the property. Included in these costs are management’s estimates for the portions of internal costs (primarily personnel costs) deemed directly or indirectly related to such development activities. The internal costs are allocated to specific development properties based on construction activity. As the property becomes occupied, depreciation commences on the occupied portion of the building, and costs are capitalized only for the portion of the building that remains vacant. When the property becomes
80%
occupied or
one
year after completion of the shell construction (whichever comes first), capitalization of development costs ceases. The properties are then transferred to real estate properties, and depreciation commences on the entire property (excluding the land).

|
BUSINESS COMBINATIONS AND ACQUIRED INTANGIBLES
|
Upon acquisition of real estate properties, the Company applies the principles of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 805,
Business Combinations
, which requires that acquisition-related costs be recognized as expenses in the periods in which the costs are incurred and the services are received. The Codification also provides guidance on how to properly determine the allocation of the purchase price among the individual components of both the tangible and intangible assets based on their respective fair values. Goodwill is recorded when the purchase price exceeds the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired. Factors considered by management in allocating the cost of the properties acquired include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. The allocation to tangible assets (land, building and improvements) is based upon management's determination of the value of the property as if it were vacant using discounted cash flow models. The Company determines whether any financing assumed is above or below market based upon comparison to similar financing terms for similar properties. The cost of the properties acquired may be adjusted based on indebtedness assumed from the seller that is determined to be above or below market rates.
The purchase price is also allocated among the following categories of intangible assets: the above or below market component of in-place leases, the value of in-place leases, and the value of customer relationships. The value allocable to the above or below market component of an acquired in-place lease is determined based upon the present value (using a discount rate reflecting the risks associated with the acquired leases) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the lease over its remaining term, and (ii) management’s estimate of the amounts that would be paid using fair market rates over the remaining term of the lease. The amounts allocated to above and below market leases are included in
Other Assets
and
Other Liabilities
, respectively, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized to rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases. The total amount of intangible assets is further allocated to in-place lease values and customer relationship values based upon management’s assessment of their respective values. These intangible assets are included in
Other Assets
on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized over the remaining term of the existing lease, or the anticipated life of the customer relationship, as applicable.
Amortization expense for in-place lease intangibles for continuing and discontinued operations was $
1,121,000
and $
2,333,000
for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2014
, respectively, and $
999,000
and $
1,777,000
for the same periods in 2013. Amortization of above and below market leases increased rental income by $
89,000
and $
176,000
for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2014
, respectively, and increased rental income by $
27,000
for the three months ended
June 30, 2013
and decreased rental income by $
10,000
for the six months ended
June 30, 2013
.

EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
During the six months ended June 30, 2014, EastGroup acquired Ridge Creek Distribution Center III in Charlotte, North Carolina, and Colorado Crossing Distribution Center in Austin, Texas. The Company purchased these properties for a total cost of $
41,751,000
, of which $
37,964,000
was allocated to real estate properties. The Company allocated $
7,061,000
of the total purchase price to land using third party land valuations for the Charlotte and Austin markets. The market values are considered to be Level 3 inputs as defined by ASC 820,
Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
(see Note 17 for additional information on ASC 820). Intangibles associated with the purchase of real estate were allocated as follows: $
4,660,000
to in-place lease intangibles, $
4,000
to above market leases (both included in
Other Assets
on the Consolidated Balance Sheets), and $
877,000
to below market leases (included in
Other Liabilities
on the Consolidated Balance Sheets). These costs are amortized over the remaining lives of the associated leases in place at the time of acquisition.
During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company acquired Northfield Distribution Center in Dallas, Texas, and Interchange Park II in Charlotte, North Carolina. The Company purchased these properties for a total cost of $
72,397,000
, of which $
65,387,000
was allocated to real estate properties. The Company allocated
$13,218,000
of the total purchase price to land using third party land valuations for the Dallas and Charlotte markets. Intangibles associated with the purchase of real estate were allocated as follows:
$8,399,000
to in-place lease intangibles,
$158,000
to above market leases, and
$1,547,000
to below market leases.
EastGroup expensed acquisition-related costs of $
160,000
in the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2014
, and expensed $
138,000
and $
167,000
during the same periods of 2013.
The Company periodically reviews the recoverability of goodwill (at least annually) and the recoverability of other intangibles (on a quarterly basis) for possible impairment. In management’s opinion, no impairment of goodwill and other intangibles existed at
June 30, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
.

REAL ESTATE HELD FOR SALE/DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
|
The Company considers a real estate property to be held for sale when it meets the criteria established under ASC 360,
Property, Plant and Equipment,
including when it is probable that the property will be sold within a year. Real estate properties held for sale are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less estimated costs to sell and are not depreciated while they are held for sale.
In April 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-08,
Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360), Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity,
which amends the requirements for reporting discontinued operations. Under ASU 2014-08, a disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results when the component or group of components meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale or when the component or group of components is disposed of by sale or other than by sale. In addition, this ASU requires additional disclosures about both discontinued operations and the disposal of an individually significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations presentation in the financial statements. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2014-08 beginning with the period ended March 31, 2014, and has applied the provisions prospectively.
Prior to the adoption of ASU 2014-08,
the results of operations for the operating properties sold or held for sale during the reported periods were shown under
Discontinued Operations
on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. Interest expense was not generally allocated to the properties held for sale or whose operations were included under
Discontinued Operations
unless the mortgage was required to be paid in full upon the sale of the property.
During the first quarter of 2014, EastGroup sold
one
operating property (
58,000
square feet) for $
3,600,000
and recognized a gain of $
95,000
. The results of operations and gain on sale for the property sold during the period are reported under
Income from Continuing Operations
on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. The gain on sale is included in
Other
.
As of
June 30, 2014
, the Company owned
one
operating property, Tampa West Distribution Center VI, that was classified as held for sale on the
June 30, 2014
Consolidated Balance Sheet. The
9,000
square foot property was sold in July 2014 for
$743,000
, generating a gain that will be recognized by the Company in its third fiscal quarter of 2014.
During 2013, the Company sold
three
operating properties (
49,000
square feet) for $
3,198,000
and recognized gains of $
798,000
. The results of operations for the properties sold during 2013 are reported under
Discontinued Operations
on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
|
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risk, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources and duration of its debt funding and, to a limited extent, the use of derivative instruments.
Specifically, the Company has entered into derivative instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company's derivative instruments, described below, are used to manage differences in the amount, timing and duration of the Company's known or expected cash payments principally related to certain of the Company's borrowings.
The Company's objective in using interest rate derivatives is to manage exposure to interest rate movements and add stability to interest expense. To accomplish this objective, the Company uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.
As of
June 30, 2014
, the Company had
three
interest rate swaps outstanding, all of which are used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with unsecured loans. The Company executed an
$80,000,000
interest rate swap associated with an
$80,000,000
unsecured loan during the third quarter of 2012. The interest rate swap converts the loan's LIBOR rate component to a fixed interest rate for the entire term of the loan, and the Company has concluded that the hedging relationship is highly effective. During the third quarter of 2013, the Company entered into
two
forward starting interest rate swaps totaling
$75,000,000
which are hedging an unsecured loan which closed in December 2013; the swaps convert the loan's LIBOR rate component to a fixed interest rate for the entire term of the loan, and the Company has concluded that the hedging relationships are highly effective.
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges is recorded in
Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives, which is immaterial for the periods reported, is recognized directly in earnings (included in
Other
on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income).
Amounts reported in
Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
related to derivatives will be reclassified to
Interest Expense
as interest payments are made on the Company's variable-rate debt. The Company estimates that an additional
$2,247,000
will be reclassified from
Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
as an increase to
Interest Expense
over the next twelve months.
As of January 1, 2013, the Company changed its valuation methodology for over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives to discount cash flows based on Overnight Index Swap (“OIS”) rates. Uncollateralized or partially-collateralized trades are discounted at OIS, but include appropriate economic adjustments for funding costs (i.e., a LIBOR-OIS basis adjustment to approximate uncollateralized cost of funds) and credit risk. The Company made the changes to better align its inputs, assumptions, and pricing methodologies with those used in its principal market by most dealers and major market participants. The changes in valuation methodology were applied prospectively as a change in accounting estimate and are immaterial to the Company's financial statements.
As of
June 30, 2014

Derivative financial agreements expose the Company to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparties under the terms of the interest rate hedge agreements. The Company believes it minimizes the credit risk by transacting with major credit-worthy financial institutions.
The Company has an agreement with its derivative counterparty containing a provision stating that the Company could be declared in default on its derivative obligations if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender.
As of
June 30, 2014
, the fair value of derivatives in an asset position related to these agreements was
$816,000
, and the fair value of derivatives in a liability position related to these agreements was
$2,130,000
. If the Company breached any of the contractual provisions of the derivative contracts, it would be required to settle its obligation under the agreements at the swap termination value. As of
June 30, 2014
, the swap termination value of derivatives in an asset position was an asset in the amount of
$838,000
, and the swap termination value of derivatives in a liability position was a liability in the amount of
$2,125,000

EARNINGS PER SHARE
|
The Company applies ASC 260,
Earnings Per Share
, which requires companies to present basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS). Basic EPS represents the amount of earnings for the period attributable to each share of common stock outstanding during the reporting period. The Company’s basic EPS is calculated by dividing
Net Income Attributable to EastGroup Properties, Inc. Common Stockholders
by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding does not include any potentially dilutive securities or any unvested restricted shares of common stock. These unvested restricted shares, although classified as issued and outstanding, are considered forfeitable until the restrictions lapse and will not be included in the basic earnings per share calculation until the shares are vested.
Diluted EPS represents the amount of earnings for the period attributable to each share of common stock outstanding during the reporting period and to each share that would have been outstanding assuming the issuance of common shares for all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the reporting period. The Company calculates diluted EPS by dividing
Net Income Attributable to EastGroup Properties, Inc. Common Stockholders
by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of unvested restricted stock and stock options had the options been exercised. The dilutive effect of stock options and their equivalents (such as unvested restricted stock) is determined using the treasury stock method which assumes exercise of the options as of the beginning of the period or when issued, if later, and assumes proceeds from the exercise of options are used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
|
The Company follows the provisions of ASC 718,
Compensation - Stock Compensation,
to account for its stock-based compensation plans. ASC 718 requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements and that the cost be measured on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued.
Stock-based compensation cost for employees was $
1,348,000
and
$3,417,000
for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2014
, respectively, of which $
321,000
and
$832,000
were capitalized as part of the Company’s development costs. For the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2013
, stock-based compensation cost for employees was
$1,008,000
and
$2,839,000
, respectively, of which
$141,000
and
$692,000
were capitalized as part of the Company's development costs.
Stock-based compensation expense for directors was $
120,000
and
$239,000
for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2014
, respectively, and
$90,000
and
$180,000
for the same periods of 2013.
In the second quarter of 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an equity compensation plan for its executive officers based upon certain annual performance measures (primarily funds from operations (FFO) per share and total shareholder return). Any shares issued pursuant to this compensation plan will be determined by the Compensation Committee in its discretion and issued in the first quarter of 2015. The number of shares to be issued on the grant date could range from
zero
to
44,524
. These shares will vest
20%
on the date shares are determined and awarded and generally will vest
20%
per year on each January 1 for the subsequent four years.
Also in the second quarter of 2014, EastGroup’s Board of Directors approved a long-term equity compensation plan for the Company’s executive officers. The awards will be based on the results of the Company's total shareholder return, both on an absolute basis for 2014 as well as on a relative basis compared to the NAREIT Equity Index, NAREIT Industrial Index and Russell 2000 Index over the five-year period ending December 31, 2014. Any shares issued pursuant to this equity compensation plan will be determined by the Compensation Committee in its discretion and issued in the first quarter of 2015. The number of shares to be issued on the grant date could range from
zero
to
46,719
. These shares will vest
25%
on the date shares are determined and awarded and generally will vest
25%
per year on each January 1 for the subsequent three years.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, shares issued to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, David H. Hoster II, and Chief Financial Officer, N. Keith McKey, will become fully vested no later than January 1, 2016 and April 6, 2016, respectively.
Following is a summary of the total restricted shares granted, forfeited and delivered (vested) to participants with the related weighted average grant date fair value share prices. Of the shares that vested in the first
six
months of
2014
, the Company withheld
31,417
shares to satisfy the tax obligations for those participants who elected this option as permitted under the applicable equity plan. As of the vesting date, the fair value of shares that vested during the first
six
months of
2014
was
$5,656,000
.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
|
The state of the overall economy can significantly impact the Company’s operational performance and thus impact its financial position. Should EastGroup experience a significant decline in operational performance, it may affect the Company’s ability to make distributions to its shareholders, service debt, or meet other financial obligations.
|

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
|
EastGroup has evaluated all ASUs recently released by the FASB through the date the financial statements were issued and determined that ASU 2014-08 (as discussed in Note 7) and ASU 2014-09 (discussed below) apply to the Company.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers,
which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. Early adoption is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
|
ASC 820,
Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,
defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also provides guidance for using fair value to measure financial assets and liabilities. The Codification requires disclosure of the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall, including measurements using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1), quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active (Level 2), and significant valuation assumptions that are not readily observable in the market (Level 3).
The following table presents the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments in accordance with ASC 820

EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments:
Cash and cash equivalents:
The carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments.
Mortgage loans receivable, net of discount (included in Other Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets):
The fair value is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities (Level 2 input).
Interest rate swap assets (included in Other Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets):
The instruments are recorded at fair value based on models using inputs, such as interest rate yield curves, LIBOR swap curves and OIS curves, observable for substantially the full term of the contract (Level 2 input). See Note 12 for additional information on the Company's interest rate swaps.
Unsecured debt:
The fair value of the Company’s unsecured debt is estimated by discounting expected cash flows at the rates currently offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities, as advised by the Company’s bankers (Level 2 input).
Unsecured bank credit facilities:
The fair value of the Company’s unsecured bank credit facilities is estimated by discounting expected cash flows at current market rates (Level 2 input).
Interest rate swap liabilities (included in Other Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets):
The instruments are recorded at fair value based on models using inputs, such as interest rate yield curves, LIBOR swap curves and OIS curves, observable for substantially the full term of the contract (Level 2 input). See Note 12 for additional information on the Company's interest rate swaps.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
|
EastGroup closed the sale of Tampa West Distribution Center VI in July 2014, as discussed in Note 7.
On
July 10, 2014
, the Company repaid a mortgage loan with a June 30, 2014 balance of
$26.6 million
, an interest rate of
5.68%
and a maturity date of
October 10, 2014
.
In July 2014, EastGroup executed a term sheet relating to a
$75 million
unsecured term loan which is expected to close in late July. The loan will have a
five
year term and interest only payments. It will bear interest at the annual rate of LIBOR plus an applicable margin (currently
1.15%
) based on the Company's senior unsecured long-term debt rating. Also in July, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to convert the loan's LIBOR rate component to a fixed interest rate for the entire term of the loan providing a total effective fixed interest rate of
2.846%
.
Also subsequent to June 30, 2014, EastGroup began construction of West Road III, a
78,000
square foot business distribution building in Houston with a projected total cost of
$5.0 million
. The Company also began construction of Thousand Oaks 4 in San Antonio. The business distribution building will contain
66,000
square feet and has a projected total cost of
$5.1 million
.

ITEM 2.
|
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
|
OVERVIEW
EastGroup’s goal is to maximize shareholder value by being the leading provider in its markets of functional, flexible and quality business distribution space for location sensitive tenants primarily in the 5,000 to 50,000 square foot range. The Company develops, acquires and operates distribution facilities, the majority of which are clustered around major transportation features in supply constrained submarkets in major Sunbelt regions. The Company’s core markets are in the states of Florida, Texas, Arizona, California and North Carolina.
The Company believes its current operating cash flows and unsecured bank credit facilities provide the capacity to fund the operations of the Company. The Company also believes it can issue common and/or preferred equity and obtain financing from insurance companies and financial institutions. The continuous common equity program provided net proceeds to the Company of $39.4 million in the first
six
months of
2014
, as described in
Liquidity and Capital Resources
.
The Company’s primary revenue is rental income; as such, EastGroup’s primary challenge is leasing space. During the
six
months ended
June 30, 2014
, leases expired on 2,367,000 square feet (7.2% of EastGroup’s total square footage of 32,999,000), and the Company was successful in renewing or re-leasing 80% of the expiring square feet. In addition, EastGroup leased 628,000 square feet of other vacant space during this period. During the first
six
months of
2014
, average rental rates on new and renewal leases increased by 8.9%. Property net operating income (PNOI) from same properties, defined as operating properties owned during the entire current period and prior year reporting period, increased 1.8% for the quarter ended
June 30, 2014
, as compared to the same quarter in
2013
. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, PNOI from same properties increased 1.5% as compared to the same period last year.
EastGroup’s total leased percentage was 95.7% at
June 30, 2014
, compared to 95.5% at
June 30, 2013
. Leases scheduled to expire for the remainder of
2014
were 4.0% of the portfolio on a square foot basis at
June 30, 2014
, and this figure wa
s reduced to 3.5%
as of
July 18, 2014
.
The Company generates new sources of leasing revenue through its development and acquisition programs. During the first
six
months of
2014
, EastGroup acquired operating properties totaling 535,000 square feet in Charlotte and Austin for $41.8 million. EastGroup continues to see targeted development as a contributor to the Company’s long-term growth. The Company mitigates risks associated with development through a Board-approved maximum level of land held for development and by adjusting development start dates according to leasing activity. During the first
six
months of
2014
, EastGroup acquired
28.6
acres of development land in Dallas for
$3,022,000
. Also during the first
six
months of
2014
, the Company began construction of 11 development projects containing 897,000 square feet in Houston, San Antonio, Charlotte, Orlando and Phoenix. EastGroup also transferred
three
properties (
265,000
square feet) in Phoenix, Charlotte and Houston from its development program to real estate properties with costs of
$17.0 million
at the date of transfer. As of
June 30, 2014
, EastGroup’s development program consisted of 21 projects (1,839,000 square feet) located in Houston, San Antonio, Orlando, Charlotte, Phoenix and Denver. The projected total cost for the development projects, which were collectively
49% l
eased as of
July 18, 2014
, is $135.2 million, of which $40.8 million remained to be invested as of
June 30, 2014
.
Typically, the Company initially funds its development and acquisition programs through its $250 million unsecured bank credit facilities (as discussed in
Liquidity and Capital Resources
). As market conditions permit, EastGroup issues equity and/or employs fixed-rate debt to replace short-term bank borrowings. In March 2014, Moody's Investor Services affirmed the Company's issuer rating of Baa2 with a stable outlook. A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency. Each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. The Company intends to obtain primarily unsecured fixed rate debt in the future. The Company may also access the public debt market in the future as a means to raise capital.
EastGroup has one reportable segment – industrial properties. These properties are primarily located in major Sunbelt regions of the United States, have similar economic characteristics and also meet the other criteria permitting the properties to be aggregated into one reportable segment. The Company’s chief decision makers use two primary measures of operating results in making decisions: (1) property net operating income (PNOI), defined as
Income from real estate operations
less
Expenses from real estate operations
(including market-based internal management fee expense) plus the Company's share of income and property operating expenses from its less-than-wholly-owned real estate investments, and (2) funds from operations attributable to common stockholders (FFO), defined as net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders computed in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of depreciable real estate property and impairment losses, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The Company calculates FFO based on the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts’ (NAREIT) definition.
-
17
-
PNOI is a supplemental industry reporting measurement used to evaluate the performance of the Company’s real estate investments. The Company believes the exclusion of depreciation and amortization in the industry’s calculation of PNOI provides a supplemental indicator of the properties’ performance since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions. PNOI as calculated by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled but differently calculated measures for other real estate investment trusts (REITs). The major factors influencing PNOI are occupancy levels, acquisitions and sales, development properties that achieve stabilized operations, rental rate increases or decreases, and the recoverability of operating expenses. The Company’s success depends largely upon its ability to lease space and to recover from tenants the operating costs associated with those leases.
PNOI is comprised of
Income from real estate operations
, less
Expenses from real estate operations
plus the Company's share of income and property operating expenses from its less-than-wholly-owned real estate investments. PNOI was calculated as follows for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2014
and
2013
.

Income from real estate operations
is comprised of rental income, expense reimbursement pass-through income and other real estate income including lease termination fees.
Expenses from real estate operations
is comprised of property taxes, insurance, utilities, repair and maintenance expenses, management fees, other operating costs and bad debt expense. Generally, the Company’s most significant operating expenses are property taxes and insurance. Tenant leases may be net leases in which the total operating expenses are recoverable, modified gross leases in which some of the operating expenses are recoverable, or gross leases in which no expenses are recoverable (gross leases represent only a small portion of the Company’s total leases). Increases in property operating expenses are fully recoverable under net leases and recoverable to a high degree under modified gross leases. Modified gross leases often include base year amounts and expense increases over these amounts are recoverable. The Company’s exposure to property operating expenses is primarily due to vacancies and leases for occupied space that limit the amount of expenses that can be recovered.

The Company believes FFO is a meaningful supplemental measure of operating performance for equity REITs. The Company believes excluding depreciation and amortization in the calculation of FFO is appropriate since real estate values have historically increased or decreased based on market conditions. FFO is not considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of the Company’s financial performance, nor is it a measure of the Company’s liquidity or indicative of funds available to provide for the Company’s cash needs, including its ability to make distributions. In addition, FFO, as reported by the Company, may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition. The Company’s key drivers affecting FFO are changes in PNOI (as discussed above), interest rates, the amount of leverage the Company employs and general and administrative expense. The following table presents reconciliations of Net Income Attributable to EastGroup Properties, Inc. Common Stockholders to FFO Attributable to Common Stockholders for the

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The Company’s management considers the following accounting policies and estimates to be critical to the reported operations of the Company.
Real Estate Properties
The Company allocates the purchase price of acquired properties to net tangible and identified intangible assets based on their respective fair values. Goodwill is recorded when the purchase price exceeds the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired. Factors considered by management in allocating the cost of the properties acquired include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. The allocation to tangible assets (land, building and improvements) is based upon management’s determination of the value of the property as if it were vacant using discounted cash flow models. The purchase price is also allocated among the following categories of intangible assets: the above or below market component of in-place leases, the value of in-place leases, and the value of customer relationships. The value allocable to the above or below market component of an acquired in-place lease is determined based upon the present value (using a discount rate reflecting the risks associated with the acquired leases) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the lease over its remaining term and (ii) management’s estimate of the amounts that would be paid using fair market rates over the remaining term of the lease. The amounts allocated to above and below market leases are included in
Other Assets
and
Other Liabilities
, respectively, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized to rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases. The total amount of intangible assets is further allocated to in-place lease values and customer relationship values based upon management’s assessment of their respective values. These intangible assets are included in
Other Assets
on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized over the remaining term of the existing lease or the anticipated life of the customer relationship, as applicable.
During the period in which a property is under development, costs associated with development (i.e., land, construction costs, interest expense, property taxes and other direct and indirect costs associated with development) are aggregated into the total capitalized costs of the property. Included in these costs are management’s estimates for the portions of internal costs (primarily personnel costs) deemed directly or indirectly related to such development activities. The internal costs are allocated to specific development properties based on construction activity.
The Company reviews its real estate investments for impairment of value whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If any real estate investment is considered permanently impaired, a loss is recorded to reduce the carrying value of the property to its estimated fair value. Real estate assets to be sold are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less selling costs. The evaluation of real estate investments involves many subjective assumptions dependent upon future economic events that affect the ultimate value of the property. Currently, the Company’s management knows of no impairment issues nor has it experienced any impairment issues in recent years. EastGroup currently has the intent and ability to hold its real estate investments and to hold its land inventory for future development. In the event of impairment, the property’s basis would be reduced, and the impairment would be recognized as a current period charge on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
Valuation of Receivables
The Company is subject to tenant defaults and bankruptcies that could affect the collection of outstanding receivables. In order to mitigate these risks, the Company performs credit reviews and analyses on prospective tenants before significant leases are executed and on existing tenants before properties are acquired. On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates outstanding receivables and estimates the allowance for doubtful accounts. Management specifically analyzes aged receivables, customer credit-worthiness, historical bad debts and current economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company believes its allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate for its outstanding receivables for the periods presented. In the event the allowance for doubtful accounts is insufficient for an account that is subsequently written off, additional bad debt expense would be recognized as a current period charge on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
Tax Status
EastGroup, a Maryland corporation, has qualified as a real estate investment trust under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code and intends to continue to qualify as such. To maintain its status as a REIT, the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its ordinary taxable income to its stockholders. If the Company has a capital gain, it has the option of (i) deferring recognition of the capital gain through a tax-deferred exchange, (ii) declaring and paying a capital gain dividend on any recognized net capital gain resulting in no corporate level tax, or (iii) retaining and paying corporate income tax on its net long-term capital gain, with shareholders reporting their proportional share of the undistributed long-term capital gain and receiving a credit or refund of their share of the tax paid by the Company. The Company distributed all of its 2013 taxable income to its stockholders and expects to distribute all of its taxable income in 2014. Accordingly, no significant provision for income taxes was necessary in 2013, nor is any significant income tax provision expected to be necessary for 2014.

six
months ended
June 30, 2014
, the Company made capital improvements of
$9,153,000
on existing and acquired properties (included in the Capital Expenditures table under

consisted of properties in lease-up and under construction of $94,442,000 and prospective development (primarily land) of
$90,176,000
. The Company’s total investment in development at
June 30, 2014
was $
184,618,000
compared to $
148,767,000
at
December 31, 2013
. Total capital invested for development during the first
six
months of
2014
was
$56,125,000
, which consisted of costs of
$52,345,000
and
$498,000

776,000
and $
1,845,000
in the same periods of 2013. The increase in capitalized internal development costs in 2014 as compared to 2013 resulted from increased activity in the Company's development program in 2014.

, EastGroup purchased
28.6
acres of development land in Dallas for
$3,022,000

(1) Includes interest on the Company's unsecured debt with fixed interest rates per the debt agreements or effectively fixed interest rates due to interest rate swaps, as discussed in Note 12 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
EastGroup’s variable rate interest expense decreased by
$69,000
for the three months ended
June 30, 2014
, as compared to the same period of 2013 due to a decrease in average unsecured bank credit facilities borrowings in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period last year. The Company's variable rate interest expense decreased by $33,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the same period last year due to decreases in the Company's weighted average variable interest rates in the six month period ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same period of 2013.
The Company's fixed rate interest expense increased by $
207,000
and
$355,000
for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2014
, as compared to the same periods in 2013. These increases were primarily due to increases in unsecured debt interest resulting from the Company's unsecured debt described below.

The increase in unsecured debt interest was partially offset by decreases in secured debt interest resulting from regularly scheduled principal payments and debt repayments. Regularly scheduled principal payments on secured debt were $11,141,000 during the
six

Discontinued Operations
In April 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-08,
Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360), Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity,
which amends the requirements for reporting discontinued operations. Under ASU 2014-08, a disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results when the component or group of components meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale or when the component or group of components is disposed of by sale or other than by sale. In addition, this ASU requires additional disclosures about both discontinued operations and the disposal of an individually significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations presentation in the financial statements. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2014-08 beginning with the period ended March 31, 2014, and has applied the provisions prospectively.
-
29
-
Prior to the adoption of ASU 2014-08,
the results of operations for the operating properties sold or held for sale during the reported periods were shown under
Discontinued Operations
on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. Interest expense was not generally allocated to the properties held for sale or whose operations were included under
Discontinued Operations
unless the mortgage was required to be paid in full upon the sale of the property.
During the first three months of
2014
, EastGroup sold one operating property, Northpoint Commerce Center in Oklahoma City. The results of operations and gain on sale for the property sold during the period are reported under
Income from Continuing Operations
on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. The gain on sale is included in
Other
.
As of June 30, 2014, the Company reported one property, Tampa West Distribution Center VI, as held for sale on the June 30, 2014 Consolidated Balance Sheet. The results of operations for the held for sale property are reported under
Income from Continuing Operations
on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
During 2013, the Company sold three operating properties: Tampa West Distribution Center V and VII and Tampa East Distribution Center II. The results of operations for the properties sold during 2013 are reported under
Discontinued Operations
on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
See Note 7 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information related to discontinued operations and gain on sales of real estate investments. The following table presents the components of revenue and expense for the operating properties sold during

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
EastGroup has evaluated all ASUs recently released by the FASB through the date the financial statements were issued and determined that the following ASUs apply to the Company.
In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08,
Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360), Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity,
which amends the requirements for reporting discontinued operations. Under ASU 2014-08, a disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results when the component or group of components meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale or when the component or group of components is disposed of by sale or other than by sale. In addition, this ASU requires additional disclosures about both discontinued operations and the disposal of an individually significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations presentation in the financial statements. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2014-08 beginning with the period ended March 31, 2014, and has applied the provisions prospectively.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers,
which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. Early adoption is not permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Net cash provided by operating activities was $
53,732,000
for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2014
. The primary other sources of cash were from borrowings on unsecured bank credit facilities and proceeds from common stock offerings. The Company distributed $
34,183,000
in common stock dividends during the
six
months ended
June 30, 2014
. Other primary uses of cash were for repayments on unsecured bank credit facilities, the construction and development of properties, the acquisition of properties, secured debt repayments and capital improvements at various properties.
Total debt at
June 30, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
is detailed below. The Company’s unsecured bank credit facilities and unsecured term loans have certain restrictive covenants, such as maintaining debt service coverage and leverage ratios and maintaining insurance coverage, and the Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants at
June 30, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
.

EastGroup has a $225 million unsecured revolving credit facility with a group of nine banks that matures in January 2017. The credit facility contains options for a one-year extension and a $100 million expansion. The interest rate on each tranche is usually reset on a monthly basis and as of
June 30, 2014
, was LIBOR plus 117.5 basis points with an annual facility fee of 22.5 basis points. The margin and facility fee are subject to changes in the Company's credit ratings. At
June 30, 2014
, the weighted average interest rate was 1.326% on a balance of $133,000,000.
The Company also has a $25 million unsecured revolving credit facility with PNC Bank, N.A. that matures in January 2017. This credit facility automatically extends for one year if the extension option in the $225 million revolving credit facility is exercised. The interest rate is reset on a daily basis and as of
June 30, 2014
, was LIBOR plus 117.5 basis points with an annual facility fee of 22.5 basis points. The margin and facility fee are subject to changes in the Company's credit ratings. At
June 30, 2014
, the interest rate was 1.330% on a balance of $9,392,000.
As market conditions permit, EastGroup issues equity and/or employs fixed-rate debt to replace the short-term bank borrowings. The Company believes its current operating cash flow and unsecured bank credit facilities provide the capacity to fund the operations of the Company. The Company also believes it can obtain financing from insurance companies and financial institutions and issue common and/or preferred equity. The Company intends to obtain primarily unsecured fixed rate debt in the future. The Company may also access the public debt market in the future as a means to raise capital.
On February 19, 2014, EastGroup entered into Sales Agency Financing Agreements with BNY Mellon Capital Markets, LLC, Raymond James & Associates, Inc., and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated pursuant to which it may issue and sell up to 10,000,000 shares of its common stock from time to time. During the
six
months ended
June 30, 2014
, the Company issued and sold
634,138
shares of common stock under its continuous equity program at an average price of $63.08 per share with gross proceeds to the Company of $39,999,000. The Company incurred offering-related costs of $640,000 during the
six
months, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $39,359,000. As of
July 21, 2014
, the Company has
9,365,862
shares of common stock remaining to sell under the program.
In July 2014, EastGroup executed a term sheet relating to a
$75 million
unsecured term loan which is expected to close in late July. The loan will have a
five
year term and interest only payments. It will bear interest at the annual rate of LIBOR plus an applicable margin (currently
1.15%
) based on the Company's senior unsecured long-term debt rating. Also in July, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement to convert the loan's LIBOR rate component to a fixed interest rate for the entire term of the loan providing a total effective fixed interest rate of
2.846%
.
The Company anticipates that its current cash balance, operating cash flows, borrowings under its unsecured bank credit facilities, proceeds from new secured and unsecured debt and/or proceeds from the issuance of equity instruments will be adequate for (i) operating and administrative expenses, (ii) normal repair and maintenance expenses at its properties, (iii) debt service obligations, (iv) maintaining compliance with its debt covenants, (v) distributions to stockholders, (vi) capital improvements, (vii) purchases
-
31
-
of properties, (viii) development, and (ix) any other normal business activities of the Company, both in the short-term and long-term.
Contractual Obligations
EastGroup’s fixed, non-cancelable obligations as of
December 31, 2013
, did not materially change during the
six
months ended
June 30, 2014
, except for the increase in
Unsecured Bank Credit Facilities
and the decrease in
Secured Debt
discussed above.
INFLATION AND OTHER ECONOMIC CONSIDERATIONS
Most of the Company's leases include scheduled rent increases. Additionally, most of the Company's leases require the tenants to pay their pro rata share of operating expenses, including real estate taxes, insurance and common area maintenance, thereby reducing the Company's exposure to increases in operating expenses resulting from inflation. In the event inflation causes increases in the Company’s general and administrative expenses or the level of interest rates, such increased costs would not be passed through to tenants and could adversely affect the Company’s results of operations.
EastGroup's financial results are affected by general economic conditions in the markets in which the Company's properties are located. The state of the economy, or other adverse changes in general or local economic conditions, could result in the inability of some of the Company's existing tenants to make lease payments and may therefore increase bad debt expense. It may also impact the Company’s ability to (i) renew leases or re-lease space as leases expire, or (ii) lease development space. In addition, an economic downturn or recession could also lead to an increase in overall vacancy rates or a decline in rents the Company can charge to re-lease properties upon expiration of current leases. In all of these cases, EastGroup’s cash flows would be adversely affected.
|
ITEM 3.
|
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
|
The Company is exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of its unsecured bank credit facilities and long-term debt maturities. This debt is used to maintain liquidity and fund capital expenditures and expansion of the Company’s real estate investment portfolio and operations. The Company’s objective for interest rate risk management is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower its overall borrowing costs. To achieve its objectives, the Company borrows at fixed rates but also has two variable rate unsecured bank credit facilities as discussed under
Liquidity and Capital Resources
. In addition, the Company uses interest rate swaps (as discussed in Note 12 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements) as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. The table below presents the principal payments due and weighted average interest rates for both the fixed rate and variable rate debt as of
June 30, 2014
.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained in this report may be deemed “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as “will,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “believes,” “intends,” “plans,” “seeks,” “estimates,” variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. All statements that address operating performance, events or developments that the Company expects or anticipates will occur in the future, including statements relating to rent and occupancy growth, development activity, the acquisition or sale of properties, general conditions in the geographic areas where the Company operates and the availability of capital, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which the Company cannot predict, including, without limitation: changes in general economic conditions; the extent of tenant defaults or of any early lease terminations; the Company's ability to lease or re-lease space at current or anticipated rents; the availability of financing; the failure to maintain credit ratings with rating agencies; changes in the supply of and demand for industrial/warehouse properties; increases in interest rate levels; increases in operating costs; natural disasters, terrorism, riots and acts of war, and the Company's ability to obtain adequate insurance; changes in governmental regulation, tax rates and similar matters; and other risks associated with the development and acquisition of properties, including risks that development projects may not be completed on schedule, development or operating costs may be greater than anticipated or acquisitions may not close as scheduled, and those additional factors discussed under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in Part II of this report and in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions at the time made, the Company can give no assurance that such expectations will be achieved. The Company assumes no obligation whatsoever to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements. See also the information contained in the Company’s reports filed or to be filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
