BRT APARTMENTS CORP. REPORTS
FOR QUARTER ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2018

Grew Rental Revenue 10.6% for the Quarter Ended December 31, 2018

Great Neck, New York – February 7, 2019 - BRT APARTMENTS CORP. (NYSE:BRT), a growing multi-family real estate investment trust with properties located primarily in the Southeast United States and Texas today announced operating results for the three months ended December 31, 2018.

Jeffrey A. Gould, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated: “During the quarter, BRT acquired a 266-unit value-add opportunity in the growing South Carolina market and completed two opportunistic asset sales generating annual internal rates of return for BRT ranging from 15.9 percent to 20.0 percent. Management remains focused on growing the Company in markets with strong underlying fundamentals complemented by diverse and growing local economies. We remain selective in our deployment of capital and our acquisition process to ensure that the Company is well-positioned for the long-term.”

Financial Results:

Net income attributable to common stockholders was $8.1 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, for the current three months, compared to net income of $6.4 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, for the three months ended December 31, 2017. The quarters ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 include $0.72 and $0.70, respectively, of net income per fully diluted share from gains on property sales, after giving effect to $0.50 and $0.18, per fully diluted share, respectively, of non-controlling interests. The current quarter also includes $0.08 of net income per fully diluted share from gain on insurance recoveries, after giving effect to $0.02 per fully diluted share of non-controlling interests.

Funds from Operations[1], or FFO, for the current quarter grew 25.0% to $0.25 per fully diluted share, from $0.20 per fully diluted share in the three months ended December 31, 2017. FFO for the current quarter was $4.2 million compared to $3.0 million in the corresponding period of the prior year. FFO for the current quarter includes gain on insurance recoveries of $1.2 million, or $.08 per fully diluted share, after giving effect to $352,000, or $0.02 per fully diluted share, respectively, of non-controlling interests. There was no corresponding gain in the 2017 quarter. Adjusted Funds from Operations, or AFFO, for the current quarter was $0.22 per fully diluted share, compared to $0.26 per fully diluted share in the corresponding prior year period. AFFO for the current quarter was $3.6 million compared to $3.8 million in the corresponding 2017 quarter.

Diluted per share net income, FFO and AFFO were impacted during the quarter ended December 31, 2018 by the approximate 1.7 million increase in the weighted average number of shares of common stock since October 1, 2017 due primarily to stock issuances pursuant to the Company’s at-the-market offering program.

Operating Results:

As of February 7, 2019, BRT owns 35 multi-family properties with 9,696 units (including 402 units at a property under development), and interests in three unconsolidated multi-family joint ventures with 687 units (including 339 units in lease-up).

During the current quarter, weighted average total occupancy at same store properties was approximately 93.0%, compared to approximately 93.7% during the corresponding 2017 quarter. Weighted average rental rate per occupied unit at same store properties during the current quarter was $1,005 per month compared to $973 per month during the corresponding 2017 quarter. Same store properties include all our consolidated properties acquired before October 1, 2017, other than those in lease-up or development, and a Katy, Texas property that was damaged by Hurricane Harvey.




Rental and other revenues from real estate properties for the current three months increased 10.6% to $31.2 million from $28.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2017 due primarily to the net impact of acquisitions and dispositions since October 1, 2017.

Total expenses for the quarter ended December 31, 2018 increased to $36.8 million from $32.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2017 due primarily to the net impact of acquisitions and dispositions since October 1, 2017.

Portfolio Activity:

During the current quarter, BRT acquired a multi-family property with 266 units for a purchase price of $37.8 million, including $26.4 million of mortgage debt. BRT also sold two properties for an aggregate sales price of $92.9 million and its share of the gain, net of non-controlling interests of $8.0 million, was $11.5 million.

Balance Sheet:

At December 31, 2018, BRT had $32.4 million of cash and cash equivalents, total assets of $1.1 billion, total debt of $808.9 million, and total stockholders’ equity of $198.8 million. At February 1, 2019, BRT had $29.3 million of cash and cash equivalents.

Change in Fiscal Year:

On February 7, 2019, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized a change in the Company’s fiscal year end from September 30 to December 31. The change is intended to better align the Company’s fiscal year with the fiscal year of other multi-family REITs. As a result of the change in fiscal year, the Company’s 2019 fiscal year began on January 1, 2019 and will end on December 31, 2019 and the next periodic report to be filed by the Company will be a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending March 31, 2019, which will be filed in May 2019.

Supplemental Financial Information:

In an effort to enhance its financial disclosures to investors, BRT has posted a supplemental financial information report which can be accessed on the Company’s website at www.brtapartments.com under the caption “Investor Relations - Financial Statements and SEC Filings.”



Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

BRT discloses FFO and AFFO because it believes that such metrics are widely recognized and appropriate measure of the performance of an equity REIT.

BRT computes FFO in accordance with the "White Paper on Funds from Operations" issued by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") and NAREIT's related guidance. FFO is defined in the White Paper as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with generally accepting accounting principles), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization, plus impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures will be calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. In computing FFO, BRT does not add back to net income the amortization of costs in connection with its financing activities or depreciation of non-real estate assets. BRT computes AFFO by adjusting FFO for loss on extinguishment of debt; straight-line rent accruals; restricted stock and restricted stock unit expense and deferred mortgage costs (including its share of its unconsolidated joint ventures) and gain on insurance



recovery. Since the NAREIT White Paper only provides guidelines for computing FFO, the computation of AFFO may vary from one REIT to another.

BRT believes that FFO and AFFO are useful and standard supplemental measures of the operating performance for equity REITs and are used frequently by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in evaluating equity REITs, many of which present FFO and AFFO when reporting their operating results. FFO and AFFO are intended to exclude GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, which assures that the value of real estate assets diminish predictability over time. In fact, real estate values have historically risen and fallen with market conditions. As a result, BRT believes that FFO and AFFO provide a performance measure that when compared year over year, should reflect the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, interest costs and other matters without the inclusion of depreciation and amortization, providing a perspective that may not be necessarily apparent from net income. BRT also considers FFO and AFFO to be useful in evaluating potential property acquisitions.

FFO and AFFO do not represent net income or cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP. FFO and AFFO should not be considered to be an alternative to net income as a reliable measure of our operating performance; nor should FFO and AFFO be considered an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities (as defined by GAAP) as measures of liquidity.

Forward Looking Information:

Certain information contained herein is forward looking within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including statements regarding the apparent improvement in the economic environment and BRT’s ability to originate additional loans. BRT intends such forward looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and includes this statement for purposes of complying with these safe harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe our future plans, strategies and expectations, are generally identifiable by use of the words “may,” “will,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” “apparent,” “experiencing” or similar expressions or variations thereof. Forward looking statements, including statements with respect to BRT’s multi-family property acquisition and ownership activities, involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which, in some cases, are beyond BRT’s control and could materially affect actual results, performance or achievements. Investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements and to carefully review the section entitled “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2018 and in the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K filed thereafter.

Additional Information:

BRT is a real estate investment trust that owns, operates and develops multi-family properties. Interested parties are urged to review the Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the quarter ended December 31, 2018 and the supplemental disclosures regarding the quarter on the investor relations section of the Company’s website at: http://brtapartments.com/investor_relations for further details.

Except with respect to the gain on sale of real estate and loss on extinguishment of debt, the impact of the non-controlling interest on such line item was calculated based on each joint venture partner’s percentage equity interest in the applicable joint venture. Gain on sale of real estate and loss on extinguishment of debt were calculated in accordance with the allocation/distribution provisions of the joint venture operating agreement with respect to the properties sold. Generally, in the event of the sale of a multi-family property owned by a joint venture, as a result of allocation/distribution provisions of the applicable joint venture operating agreement, the allocation and distribution of cash and profits to BRT will be less than that implied by BRT's percentage equity interest in the property. 5

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES DEFINITIONS (dollars in thousands) We define NOI as total property revenues less total property operating expenses. Property operating expenses exclude, among other things, depreciation and interest expense on the related property. Other REIT’s may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to other REIT’s. We believe NOI provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP operating income or net (loss) income. NOI is one of the measures we use to evaluate our performance because it (i) measures the core operations of property performance by excluding corporate level expenses and other items unrelated to property operating performance and (ii) captures trends in rental housing and property operating expenses. However, NOI should only be used as an alternative measure of our financial performance. The following table provides a reconciliation of NOI to net income attributable to common stock holders as computed in accordance with GAAP for the periods presented: Three Months ended December 31, 2018 2017 (Unaudited) (Unaudited) GAAP Net income attributable to common stockholders $ 8,073 $ 6,351 Less: Other Income (223) (187) Add: Interest expense 8,946 7,980 General and administrative 2,476 2,303 Depreciation 10,192 8,648 Less: Gain on sale of real estate (19,514) (12,519) Gain on insurance proceeds (1,585) Add: Loss on extinguishment of debt 207 257 Equity in loss of unconsolidated joint ventures 125 25 Provision for taxes 58 106 Add: Net income attributable to non-controlling interests 7,237 1,851 Net Operating Income $ 15,992 $ 14,815 12


 
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES DEFINITIONS (dollars in thousands) Funds from Operations (FFO) FFO is a non-GAAP financial performance measure defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts and is widely recognized by investors and analysts as one measure of operating performance of a REIT. The FFO calculation excludes items such as real estate depreciation and amortization, gains and losses on the sale of real estate assets and impairment on depreciable assets. Historical accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation of buildings and improvements, which implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, it is management’s view, and we believe the view of many industry investors and analysts, that the presentation of operating results for a REIT using the historical accounting for depreciation is insufficient. FFO excludes gains and losses from the sale of real estate, which we believe provides management and investors with a helpful additional measure of the performance of our real estate portfolio, as it allows for comparisons, year to year, that reflect the impact on operations from trends in items such as occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general, administrative and other expenses, and interest expenses. Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO) AFFO, as defined by us, excludes from FFO straight line rent adjustments, loss on extinguishment of debt, amortization of restricted stock and RSU expense, amortization of deferred mortgage costs and gain on insurance recovery. Management believes that excluding acquisition-related expenses from AFFO provides investors with supplemental performance information that is consistent with the performance models and analysis used by management and provides investors a view of the performance of our portfolio over time, including after the time we cease to acquire properties on a frequent and regular basis. We believe that AFFO enables investors to compare the performance of our portfolio with other REITs that have not recently engaged in acquisitions, as well as a comparison of our performance with that of other non-traded REITs, as AFFO, or an equivalent measure is routinely reported by non-traded REITs, and we believe often used by analysts and investors for comparison purposes. Debt Service Coverage Ratio Debt service coverage ratio is net operating income ("NOI") divided by total debt service. Total Debt Service Total debt service is the cash required to cover the repayment of interest and principal on a debt for a particular period. Total debt service is used in the calculation of the debt service coverage ratio which is used to determine the borrower’s ability to make debt service payments. Stabilized Properties For all periods presented, stabilized properties include all our consolidated properties, other than those in lease-up or development.
