For Immediate Release

Franklin Street Properties Corp. Announces

First Quarter 2023 Results

Graphic

Wakefield, MA—May 2, 2023—Franklin Street Properties Corp. (the “Company”, “FSP”, “we” or “our”) (NYSE American:  FSP), a real estate investment trust (REIT), announced its results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.    

George J. Carter, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented as follows:

“As the second quarter of 2023 begins, we continue to believe that the current price of our common stock does not accurately reflect the value of our underlying real estate assets.  We will seek to increase shareholder value by (1) pursuing the sale of select properties where we believe that short to intermediate term valuation potential has been reached and (2) striving to lease vacant space.  We intend to use proceeds from property dispositions primarily for debt reduction.  

We look forward to the remainder of 2023 and beyond with anticipation and optimism.”  

Financial Highlights

GAAP net income was $2.4 million or $0.02 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2023.  
Funds From Operations (FFO) was $8.4 million, or $0.08 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
We sold one office property located in Elk Grove, Illinois on March 10, 2023 for a sales price of $29.1 million, at a gain of approximately $8.4 million.  Sale proceeds were primarily used to repay a portion of the drawn balance of our revolving line of credit.

Leasing Highlights

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we leased approximately 129,000 square feet, including 48,000 square feet of new leases.  
Our directly owned real estate portfolio of 20 owned properties, totaling approximately 6.0 million square feet, was approximately 73.9% leased as of March 31, 2023, compared to approximately 75.6% leased as of December 31, 2022.  The decrease in the leased percentage is primarily a result of lease expirations during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and from a property disposition.  
Subsequent to March 31, 2023, we entered into leases totaling approximately 112,000 square feet, including leases with new tenants and existing tenant expansions.  As of April 30, 2023, our directly owned portfolio increased to approximately 75.6% leased, an increase from our leased percentage of 73.9% as of March 31, 2023 and unchanged from our leased percentage as of December 31, 2022.        
The weighted average GAAP base rent per square foot achieved on leasing activity during the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $32.87, or 5.7% higher than average rents in the respective properties as applicable compared to the year ended December 31, 2022.  The average lease term on leases signed during the three months ended March 31, 2023 was 6.1 years compared to 6.4 years during the year ended December 31, 2022.  Overall the portfolio weighted average rent per occupied square foot was $31.06 as of March 31, 2023 compared to $30.48 as of December 31, 2022.  


-2-

We are currently tracking approximately 700,000 square feet of new prospective tenants, including approximately 400,000 square feet of prospective tenants that have identified FSP assets on their respective short lists of potential locations.    
We believe that our continuing portfolio of real estate is well located, primarily in the Sunbelt and Mountain West geographic regions, and consists of high-quality assets with upside leasing potential in a post-COVID-19 environment.  

Investment Highlights

On March 10, 2023, we completed the sale of 50 Northwest Point in Elk Grove, Illinois for approximately $29.1 million in gross proceeds and recorded a gain of approximately $8.4 million.  Proceeds were used primarily to reduce debt.  
We remain committed to selling select properties during 2023 and using proceeds primarily for debt reduction.  
At this time, primarily for competitive reasons and uncertainty surrounding the timing and amount of proceeds received from property dispositions, we are continuing our suspension of property disposition guidance.
We will continue to provide quarterly updates on any disposition activity.            

Dividends

On April 7, 2023, we announced that our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend for the three months ended March 31, 2023 of $0.01 per share of common stock that will be paid on May 11, 2023 to stockholders of record on April 21, 2023.  

Consolidation of Sponsored REIT

As of January 1, 2023, we consolidated Monument Circle into our financial statements.  On October 29, 2021, we agreed to amend and restate our existing loan to Monument Circle that is secured by a mortgage on real estate owned by Monument Circle, which we refer to as the Sponsored REIT Loan.  The amended and restated Sponsored REIT Loan extended the maturity date from December 6, 2022 to June 30, 2023 (subject to further extension to September 30, 2023), increased the aggregate principal amount of the loan from $21 million to $24 million, and included certain other modifications.  In consideration of our agreement to amend and restate the Sponsored REIT Loan, we obtained from the stockholders of Monument Circle the right to vote their shares in favor of any sale of the property owned by Monument Circle any time on or after January 1, 2023.  As a result of our obtaining this right to vote shares, GAAP variable interest entity (VIE) rules required us to consolidate Monument Circle as of January 1, 2023.  A gain on consolidation of approximately $0.4 million was recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Additional information about the consolidation of Monument Circle can be found in Note 1, “Organization, Properties, Basis of Presentation, Financial Instruments, and Recent Accounting Standards – Variable Interest Entities (VIEs)” and Note 2, “Related Party Transactions and Investments in Non-Consolidated Entities - Management fees and interest income from loans”, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.

Supplementary Schedule H

Reconciliation and Definitions of Funds From Operations (“FFO”) and

Adjusted Funds From Operations (“AFFO”)

A reconciliation of Net income to FFO and AFFO is shown below and a definition of FFO and AFFO is provided on Supplementary Schedule I.  Management believes FFO and AFFO are used broadly throughout the real estate investment trust (REIT) industry as measurements of performance.   The Company has included the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT) FFO definition as of May 17, 2016 in the table and notes that other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently.  The Company’s computation of FFO and AFFO may not be comparable to FFO or AFFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that define FFO or AFFO differently.

Funds From Operations (“FFO”)

The Company evaluates performance based on Funds From Operations, which we refer to as FFO, as management believes that FFO represents the most accurate measure of activity and is the basis for distributions paid to equity holders.  The Company defines FFO as net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, hedge ineffectiveness, acquisition costs of newly acquired properties that are not capitalized and lease acquisition costs that are not capitalized plus depreciation and amortization, including amortization of acquired above and below market lease intangibles and impairment charges on mortgage loans, properties or investments in non-consolidated REITs, and after adjustments to exclude equity in income or losses from, and, to include the proportionate share of FFO from, non-consolidated REITs.    

FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income or loss (determined in accordance with GAAP), nor as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance, nor as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP), nor as a measure of the Company’s liquidity, nor is it necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of the Company’s needs.  

Other real estate companies and the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, may define this term in a different manner.  We have included the NAREIT FFO as of May 17, 2016 in the table and note that other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do.  

We believe that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of the results of the Company, FFO should be examined in connection with net income or loss and cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities in the consolidated financial statements.

Adjusted Funds From Operations (“AFFO”)

The Company also evaluates performance based on Adjusted Funds From Operations, which we refer to as AFFO.  The Company defines AFFO as (1) FFO, (2) excluding loss on extinguishment of debt that is non-cash, (3) excluding our proportionate share of FFO and including distributions received, from non-consolidated REITs, (4) excluding the effect of straight-line rent, (5) plus the amortization of deferred financing costs, (6) plus the value of shares issued as compensation and (7) less recurring capital expenditures that are generally for maintenance of properties, which we call non-investment capex or are second generation capital expenditures.  Second generation costs include re-tenanting space after a tenant vacates, which include tenant improvements and leasing commissions.  

We exclude development/redevelopment activities, capital expenditures planned at acquisition and costs to reposition a property. We also exclude first generation leasing costs, which are generally to fill vacant space in properties we acquire or were planned for at acquisition.  

AFFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income or loss (determined in accordance with GAAP), nor as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance, nor as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP), nor as a measure of the Company’s liquidity, nor is it necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of the Company’s needs.  Other real estate companies may define this term in a different manner.  We believe that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of the results of the Company, AFFO should be examined in connection with net income or loss and cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities in the consolidated financial statements.

Supplementary Schedule I

Reconciliation and Definition of Sequential Same Store results to property Net Operating Income (NOI) and Net Income

Net Operating Income (“NOI”)

The Company provides property performance based on Net Operating Income, which we refer to as NOI.  Management believes that investors are interested in this information.  NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company defines as net income or loss (the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) plus general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, including amortization of acquired above and below market lease intangibles and impairment charges, interest expense, less equity in earnings of nonconsolidated REITs, interest income, management fee income, hedge ineffectiveness, gains or losses on extinguishment of debt, gains or losses on the sale of assets and excludes non-property specific income and expenses.  The information presented includes footnotes and the data is shown by region with properties owned in the periods presented, which we call Sequential Same Store.  The comparative Sequential Same Store results include properties held for all periods presented.  We exclude properties that have been placed in service, but that do not have operating activity for all periods presented, dispositions and significant nonrecurring income such as bankruptcy settlements and lease termination fees.  NOI, as defined by the Company, may not be comparable to NOI reported by other REITs that define NOI differently. NOI should not be considered an alternative to net income or loss as an indication of our performance or to cash flows as a measure of the Company’s liquidity or its ability to make distributions.  The calculations of NOI and Sequential Same Store are shown in the following table:
