Kimco Realty Corporation Analyst Notes 

On March 31, 2014, Kimco Realty Corporation (Kimco) reported that it successfully closed on the sale of a nine-property retail portfolio in Mexico to a joint venture between Macquarie Mexican REIT (MMREIT) and Grupo Frisa for a gross sales price of 2.9 billion Mexican pesos (US $222.0 million) along with debt of 475.9 million Mexican pesos (US $36.3 million). Kimco's pro-rata share of the sales price was approximately 2.0 billion Mexican pesos (US $153 million). The portfolio, which consisted of 2.1 million square feet, was an estimated 90% occupied at the time of sale and, if certain occupancy and rental growth thresholds are met 18 months after closing, Kimco can earn an additional payment. The Company predicts to recognize a $20.0 million gain on sale, before any impact from currency, which will not be included from the calculation of funds from operations. This transaction embodies a significant part of the Company's simplification strategy that consists of exiting Latin America and focusing on its portfolio in the U.S. and Canada. After the sale of these nine properties, Kimco's remaining Latin America shopping center portfolio comprises 36 properties amounting to 5.9 million square feet. Kimco is currently negotiating contracts for the sale of these remaining properties. The full analyst notes on Kimco Realty Corporation are available to download free of charge at:
