Craig Macnab, Chief Executive Officer, commented: "Our portfolio and
balance sheet remain in very good condition. High visibility of 2008's FFO
per share growth paved the way to increase our quarterly dividend by 5.6% in
the second quarter. We are on track to making 2008 the 19th consecutive year
of increased annual dividends even while enhancing the safety of the increased
dividend as our payout ratio declines to record lows."
National Retail Properties invests primarily in high-quality retail
properties subject generally to long-term, net leases. As of June 30, 2008,
the company owned 959 Investment properties in 44 states with a gross leasable
area of approximately 11 million square feet. For more information on the
company, visit www.nnnreit.com .
Management will hold a conference call on July 31, 2008 at 10:00 a.m. EDT
to review these results. The call can be accessed on National Retail
Properties, Inc. web site live at http://www.nnnreit.com . For those unable
to listen to the live broadcast, a replay will be available on the company's
web site. In addition, a summary of any earnings guidance given on the call
will be posted to the company's web site.
Statements in this press release that are not strictly historical are
"forward-looking" statements. Forward-looking statements involve known and
unknown risks, which may cause the company's actual future results to differ
materially from expected results. These risks include, among others, general
economic conditions, local real estate conditions, changes in interest rates,
increases in operating costs, the availability of capital, and the
profitability of the company's taxable subsidiary. Additional information
concerning these and other factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those forward-looking statements is contained from time to
time in the company's Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") filings,
including, but not limited to, the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Copies of each filing may be obtained from the company or the SEC.
Consequently, such forward-looking statements should be regarded solely as
reflections of the company's current operating plans and estimates. Actual
operating results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecast in
this press release. National Retail undertakes no obligation to publicly
release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that
may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date these statements
were made.
Funds From Operations, commonly referred to as FFO, is a relative non-GAAP
financial measure of operating performance of an equity REIT in order to
recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated
on the basis determined under GAAP. FFO is defined by the National
Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts and is used by the company as
follows: net earnings (computed in accordance with GAAP) plus depreciation
and amortization of assets unique to the real estate industry, excluding gains
(or including losses) on the disposition of real estate held for investment,
and the company's share of these items from the company's unconsolidated
partnerships.
FFO is generally considered by industry analysts to be the most
appropriate measure of performance of real estate companies. FFO does not
necessarily represent cash provided by operating activities in accordance with
GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to net earnings as an
indication of the company's performance or to cash flow as a measure of
liquidity or ability to make distributions. Management considers FFO an
appropriate measure of performance of an equity REIT because it primarily
excludes the assumption that the value of the real estate assets diminishes
predictably over time, and because industry analysts have accepted it as a
performance measure. The company's computation of FFO may differ from the
methodology for calculating FFO used by other equity REITs, and therefore, may
not be comparable to such other REITs.
The company has determined that there are earnings from discontinued
operations in each of its segments, real estate held for investment and real
estate held for sale. All property dispositions from the company's held for
investment segment are classified as discontinued operations. In addition,
certain properties in the company's held for sale segment that have generated
revenues before disposition are classified as discontinued operations. The
results of operations for prior periods for these properties now classified as
discontinued operations have been restated to reflect the results in earnings
from discontinued operations for comparability purposes. These adjustments
resulted in a decrease in the company's reported total revenues and total and
per share earnings from continuing operations and an increase in the company's
earnings from discontinued operations. However, the company's total and per
share FFO and net earnings available to common stockholders are not affected.
