Retail Value Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2021 Operating Results

Retail Value Inc. (NYSE: RVI) today announced operating results for the quarter ended September 30, 2021.

Financial Results for the Quarter

  • Third quarter 2021 net income attributable to common shareholders was $21.0 million, or $0.99 per diluted share, as compared to net loss of $69.0 million, or $3.48 per diluted share, in the year-ago period. The period-over-period increase in net income is primarily attributable to the reduction of impairment charges in 2021 compared to 2020, higher gain on disposition of real estate, lower interest expense and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • Third quarter 2021 operating funds from operations attributable to common shareholders (“Operating FFO” or “OFFO”) was $13.5 million, or $0.64 per diluted share, compared to $14.6 million, or $0.74 per diluted share, in the year-ago period. The period-over-period decrease in OFFO is primarily attributable to the impact of asset sales offset by the impact of the COVID‑19 pandemic and lower interest expense. Third quarter results included $1.4 million of net revenue related to prior periods primarily from cash basis tenants.
  • The continental U.S. leased rate was 89.5% at September 30, 2021 as compared to 89.6% at June 30, 2021.

Significant Third Quarter and Recent Transaction Activity

  • Sold the Company’s remaining interests in nine assets in Puerto Rico for $550.0 million (Puerto Rico operating results reflected as “discontinued operations” on a retrospective basis).
  • Repaid the outstanding balance on its mortgage loan of $214.5 million and all restricted cash balances were released to the Company by the loan’s servicer.
  • In October 2021, sold five assets in the continental U.S. for $264.0 million.
  • In October 2021, the Company paid a dividend on the Company’s Series A Preferred Shares (the “RVI Preferred Shares”) in the aggregate amount of $190.0 million.
  • In October 2021, the Company paid a cash dividend of $22.04 per common share. The total dividend paid on account of the common shares was $465.4 million.
  • In November 2021, the Company entered into a contract to sell Green Ridge Square in Grand Rapids, Michigan for $23.3 million in cash, subject to adjustment for certain closing pro-rations, allocations, credits, closing costs and escrows. Closing remains subject to customary conditions and is expected to occur by the end of 2021.

Non-GAAP Measures

Funds from Operations (“FFO”) is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure used as a standard in the real estate industry and is a widely accepted measure of real estate investment trust (“REIT”) performance. Management believes that both FFO and Operating FFO provide additional indicators of the financial performance of a REIT. The Company also believes that FFO and Operating FFO more appropriately measure the core operations of the Company and provide benchmarks to its peer group.

FFO is generally defined and calculated by the Company as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”)) adjusted to exclude (i) gains and losses from disposition of real estate property and related investments, which are presented net of taxes, if any, (ii) impairment charges on real estate property and related investments and (iii) certain non-cash items. These non-cash items principally include real property depreciation and amortization of intangibles. The Company’s calculation of FFO is consistent with the definition of FFO provided by NAREIT. The Company calculates Operating FFO by excluding certain non-operating charges and income. Operating FFO is useful to investors as the Company removes non-comparable charges and income to analyze the results of its operations and assess performance of the core operating real estate portfolio. Other real estate companies may calculate FFO and Operating FFO in a different manner.

The Company also uses net operating income (“NOI”), a non-GAAP financial measure, as a supplemental performance measure. NOI is calculated as property revenues less property-related expenses. The Company believes NOI provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level and, when compared across periods, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs and acquisition and disposition activity on an unleveraged basis.

FFO, Operating FFO and NOI do not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, are not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as alternatives to net income computed in accordance with GAAP as indicators of the Company’s operating performance or as alternatives to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in this release herein.

Safe Harbor

RVI considers portions of the information in this press release to be forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, both as amended, with respect to the Company's expectation for future periods. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that its expectations will be achieved. For this purpose, any statements contained herein that are not historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. There are a number of important factors that could cause our results to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements, including, among other factors, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our ability to manage our properties and finance our operations and on tenants’ ability to operate their businesses, generate sales and meet their financial obligations, including the obligation to pay ongoing and deferred rents; our ability to sell our remaining assets on commercially reasonable terms; property damage, expenses related thereto and other business and economic consequences (including the potential loss of rental revenues) resulting from extreme weather conditions and natural disasters in locations where we own properties, and the ability to estimate accurately the amounts thereof; sufficiency and timing of any insurance recovery payments related to damages from extreme weather conditions and natural disasters; local conditions such as an increase in the supply of, or a reduction in demand for, retail real estate in the area; the impact of e-commerce; dependence on rental income from real property; the loss of, significant downsizing of or bankruptcy of a major tenant and the impact of any such event on rental income from other tenants at our properties; impairment charges; the ability to secure and maintain management services provided to us, including pursuant to our external management agreement with one or more subsidiaries of SITE Centers; and our ability to maintain our REIT status. For additional factors that could cause the results of the Company to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements, please refer to the Company’s most recent report on Forms 10-K and 10-Q. The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic may also exacerbate the risks described therein, any of which could have a material effect on the Company.
