November 1, 2018 5:49 PM

Seritage Growth Properties (NYSE: SRG) reported Q3 EPS of ($0.66), versus ($0.66) reported last year. Funds from Operations (“FFO”) of ($0.4) million, or ($0.01) per diluted share.

“Our strong execution this quarter demonstrates the power of our platform to substantially increase rents upon re-leasing and deploy significant capital at industry leading returns. Since inception, we have now leased 7 million square feet at 4 times the prior rents paid by Sears Holdings, and have completed or commenced 79 projects, with total capital of $1.4 billion at targeted unlevered returns of approximately 11 percent on an incremental basis,” said Benjamin Schall, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We have a diversified roster of growing tenants, now with 70 percent of our income, on a signed lease basis, coming from non-Sears tenants after our highest quarterly leasing volume to date, with over 930,000 square feet leased in the third quarter. We closed a $2 billion term loan this quarter and now stand with access to $1 billion of cash on hand and committed capital. We feel well positioned to drive substantial future growth from our next pipeline of projects, which include many of our larger scale and mixed-use development opportunities, where we expect to meaningfully densify sites by integrating retail with multi-family, office and hotels. Our go-forward strategy remains consistent – to unlock substantial value through the investment of capital and the intensive leasing and redevelopment of our national portfolio of well-located buildings and land.”
