EastGroup Properties, Inc. (NYSE: EGP) (the "Company", "we", "us" or "EastGroup") announced today the results of its operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020.
Commenting on EastGroup's performance, Marshall Loeb, CEO, stated, "Our first quarter results reflect the strength and depth of our team and the quality of our portfolio during a 'normal economic' period. Unfortunately, the world economy has paused. As a result, our focus has shifted to operations. During this time, our attention is on maintaining occupancy and cash flow and working with those tenants who need financial help. When we re-open our economy, we believe our last mile, shallow bay portfolio will be uniquely positioned to benefit from the anticipated shift towards carrying more inventory, incremental manufacturing in the U.S. or near shoring in Mexico, and a change in shopping patterns leading to increased e-commerce demand."
EARNINGS PER SHARE
On a diluted per share basis, earnings per common share ("EPS") were $0.60 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $0.62 for the same period of 2019. The Company's property net operating income ("PNOI") increased by $6,421,000 ($0.16 per share) for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to the same period of 2019. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $4,146,000 ($0.11 per diluted share) during the first quarter of 2020 as compared to the same period of 2019. Also, EastGroup recognized gains on sales of real estate investments of $2,325,000 ($0.06 per share) during the three months ended March 31, 2019; there were no sales during the first quarter of 2020.
FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS AND PROPERTY NET OPERATING INCOME
For the quarter ended March 31, 2020, funds from operations attributable to common stockholders ("FFO") were $1.31 per share compared to $1.20 per share for the same quarter of 2019, an increase of 9.2%.
PNOI increased by $6,421,000, or 11.4%, during the quarter ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same period of 2019. PNOI increased $4,364,000 from newly developed and value-add properties, $2,036,000 from 2019 and 2020 acquisitions and $1,251,000 from same property operations (based on the same property pool); PNOI decreased $1,188,000 from operating properties sold in 2019.
The same property pool PNOI Excluding Income from Lease Terminations increased 1.7% on a straight-line basis for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same quarter in 2019; on a cash basis (excluding straight-line rent adjustments and amortization of above/below market rent intangibles), same PNOI increased 3.7%.
The same property pool for the first quarter of 2020 includes properties which were included in the operating portfolio for the entire period from January 1, 2019 through March 31, 2020; this pool is comprised of properties containing 38,737,000 square feet.
On a straight-line basis, rental rates on new and renewal leases (5.9% of total square footage) increased an average of 24.6% for the first quarter.
FFO, FFO Excluding Gain on Casualties and Involuntary Conversion, PNOI and Same PNOI are non-GAAP financial measures, which are defined under Definitions later in this release. Reconciliations of Net Income to PNOI and Same PNOI, and Net Income Attributable to EastGroup Properties, Inc. Common Stockholders to FFO and FFO Excluding Gain on Casualties and Involuntary Conversion are presented in the attached schedule "Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures."
IMPACT OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized COVID-19 as a pandemic. Global, national and local economies are being impacted by the pandemic and the mitigation efforts to combat the spread of COVID-19.
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, COVID-19 did not have a material adverse impact on the Company's revenues as monthly rent payments generally were due by early March, prior to the beginning of the more significant economic impacts in the United States.
As of April 29, 2020, April rent collections stand at approximately 94% of rent charges, which is slightly lower than typical collections in pre-COVID-19 months, but the Company has not experienced a significant decline in rent collections thus far. We have received rent relief requests, in the form of payment deferral requests or requests to waive certain rent charges, from approximately 26% of our customers. These requests are being handled on a case-by-case basis and the Company's responses are largely dependent on our understanding of the financial strength of the customer, the operational and earnings impacts being experienced by the customer, and the customer's ability or inability to obtain capital through debt or equity issuances, government assistance programs or by other means. Many of our customers have qualified for government assistance programs related to COVID-19; such programs are helping to support their cash flows and enabling them to meet their rent obligations to date. As of April 29, 2020, rent concessions and rent payment deferrals have not been material; however, we are actively monitoring the evolving situation, and we anticipate the impacts to be greater in future months. As shown under Outlook for 2020, we project a decline in our operating results during 2020, as compared to our initial projections which were disclosed in a press release dated February 6, 2020.
We believe EastGroup's financial condition and balance sheet remain strong. As of March 31, 2020, the outstanding balance on our $395 million unsecured revolving credit facilities was $83 million, providing $312 million of available capacity. We have not drawn amounts on our unsecured revolving credit facilities, except for general corporate purposes in the ordinary course of business. The Company is in compliance with its debt covenants and anticipates remaining in compliance during the foreseeable future.
As of April 29, 2020, the Company's lease expirations for the remainder of 2020 represent 8.0% of our total operating portfolio square footage. As shown in the Outlook for 2020 section of this release, the Company anticipates a decline in occupancy during the remainder of 2020. Although we continue to execute leases with customers, leasing prospects for the operating portfolio and development and value-add properties have slowed. Our ability or inability to continue leasing space will impact our occupancy for the remainder of the year.
The Company has been continuing construction on already-active development and value-add projects. During the second quarter, we do not anticipate starting construction on any new speculative development projects. As shown under Outlook for 2020, we adjusted our projected development starts for 2020 downward. We will continue to monitor the economic conditions of our markets to determine whether to begin construction on future development projects.
We expect COVID-19 to negatively impact EastGroup's overall financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. The magnitude of such impacts will depend largely on the severity and duration of the economic downturn and its affect on our customers, and cannot be predicted at this time.
ACQUISITIONS
In late February 2020, the Company acquired Wells Point One for $6.2 million. The 50,000 square foot, multi-tenant business distribution building is located in the northeast submarket of Austin and is 100% leased to three tenants.
Also during the first quarter of 2020, EastGroup acquired 6.7 acres of land in Dallas for $1.7 million; the land is located near the Company's Arlington Tech Centre and will accommodate the future development of a 77,000 square foot business distribution building.
In March 2020, the Company acquired 121.5 acres of land in Orlando for $20.5 million. EastGroup has future plans to develop Horizon West Commerce Park on the site; the multi-phase project is expected to include 11 buildings with approximately 1.5 million square feet.
As noted above, the Company will continue to monitor the economic conditions of our markets to determine whether to begin construction on future development projects.
DEVELOPMENT AND VALUE-ADD PROPERTIES
During the first quarter of 2020, EastGroup began construction of two development projects. The buildings will contain a total of 274,000 square feet and have projected total costs of $32.2 million.
The development projects started during the first quarter of 2020 are detailed in the table below:

DIVIDENDS
EastGroup declared a cash dividend of $0.75 per share in the first quarter of 2020. The first quarter dividend, which was paid on April 15, 2020, was the Company's 161st consecutive quarterly cash distribution to shareholders. The Company has increased or maintained its dividend for 27 consecutive years and has increased it 24 years over that period, including increases in each of the last eight years. The annualized dividend rate of $3.00 per share yielded 2.7% on the closing stock price of $111.01 on April 29, 2020.
FINANCIAL STRENGTH AND FLEXIBILITY
EastGroup continues to maintain a strong and flexible balance sheet. Debt-to-total market capitalization was 23.5% at March 31, 2020. For the first quarter of 2020, the Company's interest and fixed charge coverage ratio was 7.06x and its ratio of debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization for real estate ("EBITDAre") was 5.24x. EBITDAre is a non-GAAP financial measure defined under Definitions later in this release. A reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDAre is presented in the attached schedule "Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures."
During the first quarter, EastGroup issued and sold 105,837 shares of common stock under its continuous common equity offering program at an average price of $141.73 per share, providing gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $15 million.
In late March 2020, the Company closed a $100 million senior unsecured term loan with a seven-year term and interest only payments. It bears interest at the annual rate of LIBOR plus an applicable margin based on the Company's senior unsecured long-term debt rating. The Company also 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 2.39%.
OUTLOOK FOR 2020
In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, EPS for 2020 is now estimated to be in the range of $2.07 to $2.19. Estimated FFO per share attributable to common stockholders for 2020 is now estimated to be in the range of $5.11 to $5.23. The table below reconciles projected net income attributable to common stockholders to projected FFO. The estimated net income attributable to common stockholders is not a projection and is provided solely to satisfy the disclosure requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
EastGroup's projections are based on management's current beliefs and assumptions about our business, the industry and the markets in which we operate; there are known and unknown risks and uncertainties associated with these projections. The Company assumes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, including its Outlook for 2020, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted global, national and local economies and the financial markets; it is difficult to predict the future impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Please refer to the "Forward-Looking Statements" disclosures included in this earnings release and "Risk Factors" disclosed in our annual and quarterly reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for more information.

DEFINITIONS
The Company's chief decision makers use two primary measures of operating results in making decisions: (1) funds from operations attributable to common stockholders ("FFO") and (2) 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.
FFO is computed in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. ("Nareit"). In December 2018, Nareit issued the "Nareit Funds from Operations White Paper - 2018 Restatement" (the "2018 White Paper"), which reaffirmed, and in some cases refined, Nareit's prior determinations concerning FFO. The guidance in the 2018 White Paper allows preparers an option as it pertains to whether gains or losses on sale, or impairment charges, on real estate assets incidental to a REIT's business are excluded from the calculation of FFO. EastGroup has made the election to exclude activity related to such assets that are incidental to our business. The Company has revised prior periods to reflect this guidance. FFO is calculated as net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders computed in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), excluding gains and losses from sales of real estate property (including other assets incidental to the Company's business) and impairment losses, adjusted for real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
FFO Excluding Gain on Casualties and Involuntary Conversion is calculated as FFO (as defined above), adjusted to exclude gain on casualties and involuntary conversion. The Company believes that the exclusion of gain on casualties and involuntary conversion presents a more meaningful comparison of operating performance.
EastGroup sometimes refers to PNOI from Same Properties as "Same PNOI" in this press release and the accompanying reconciliation; the Company also presents Same PNOI Excluding Income from Lease Terminations. The Company presents Same PNOI and Same PNOI Excluding Income from Lease Terminations as a property-level supplemental measure of performance used to evaluate the performance of the Company's investments in real estate assets and its operating results on a same property basis. The Company believes it is useful to evaluate Same PNOI Excluding Income from Lease Terminations on both a straight-line and cash basis. The straight-line basis is calculated by averaging the customers' rent payments over the lives of the leases; GAAP requires the recognition of rental income on the straight-line basis. The cash basis excludes adjustments for straight-line rent and amortization of market rent intangibles for acquired leases; the cash basis is an indicator of the rents charged to customers by the Company during the periods presented and is useful in analyzing the embedded rent growth in the Company's portfolio. Same Properties is defined as operating properties owned during the entire current period and prior year reporting period. Properties developed or acquired are excluded until held in the operating portfolio for both the current and prior year reporting periods. Properties sold during the current or prior year reporting periods are also excluded.
FFO and PNOI are supplemental industry reporting measurements used to evaluate the performance of the Company's investments in real estate assets and its operating results. The Company believes that the exclusion of depreciation and amortization in the industry's calculations of PNOI and FFO provides supplemental indicators of the properties' performance since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions. PNOI and FFO as calculated by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled but differently calculated measures for other real estate investment trusts ("REITs"). Investors should be aware that items excluded from or added back to FFO are significant components in understanding and assessing the Company's financial performance.
The Company's chief decision makers also use Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate ("EBITDAre") in making decisions. EBITDAre is defined as Net Income, adjusted for gains and losses from sales of real estate investments, non-operating real estate and other assets incidental to the Company's business, interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization. EBITDAre is a non-GAAP financial measure used to measure the Company's operating performance and its ability to meet interest payment obligations and pay quarterly stock dividends on an unleveraged basis.
EastGroup's chief decision makers also use its Debt-to-EBITDAre ratio, a non-GAAP financial measure calculated by dividing the Company's debt by its EBITDAre, in analyzing the financial condition and operating performance of the Company relative to its leverage.
The Company's interest and fixed charge coverage ratios are non-GAAP financial measures calculated by dividing the Company's EBITDAre by its interest expense. These ratios provide a basis for analysis of the Company's leverage, operating performance, and its ability to service the interest payments due on its debt.
