(1) FFO is defined by the National Association of Real Estate
Investment Trusts, Inc. (NAREIT) to mean net income computed in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP),
excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus real
estate related depreciation and amortization and after adjustments
for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Management
uses FFO as a supplemental measure to conduct and evaluate the
Company's business because there are certain limitations
associated with using GAAP net income by itself as the primary
measure of the Company's operating performance. Historical cost
accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP
implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes
predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have
historically risen or fallen with market conditions, management
believes that the presentation of operating results for real estate
companies that use historical cost accounting is insufficient by
itself.
FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income as
the primary indicator of the Company's operating performance or as
an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. Further,
while the Company adheres to the NAREIT definition of FFO, its
presentation of FFO is not necessarily comparable to similarly
titled measures of other REITs due to the fact that not all REITs
use the same definition.
