Non-prime asset sales, further deleveraging of our balance sheet, the renewal of our unsecured line of credit and overall extension of our debt maturity profile also contributed to our considerable progress,” commented Developers Diversified’s president and chief executive officer, Daniel B. Hurwitz.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The Company’s third quarter operating Funds From Operations (“FFO”) was $63.2 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, before $26.1 million of net charges. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010 the Company reported operating FFO of $193.4 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, before $160.7 million of net charges.
The charges and gains, primarily non-cash, for the periods ended September 30, 2010, are summarized as follows (in millions):
                 
    Three Months     Nine Months  
Non-cash impairment charges — consolidated assets
   $ 5.1     $ 78.2  
Less portion of impairment charges allocated to non-controlling interests
     —       (31.2 )
Executive separation charge
     —       2.1  
Gain on debt retirement, net
     (0.3 )     (0.3 )
Non-cash loss on equity derivative instruments related to Otto investment
     11.3       14.6  
Litigation, debt extinguishment costs and other expenses, net of tax
     3.9       16.0  
Loss on asset sales and impairment charges — equity method investments
     3.0       6.4  
Consolidated loss on sales and impairment charges — discontinued operations
     7.3       75.3  
Gain on deconsolidation of interests, net
     (5.2 )     (5.2 )
FFO associated with Mervyns joint venture, net of non-controlling interest
     1.0       4.8  
 
            
 
   $ 26.1     $ 160.7  
 
            
FFO applicable to common shareholders for the three-month period ended September 30, 2010, including the above net charges, was $37.1 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, which compares to a FFO loss of $90.1 million, or $0.54 per diluted share, for the prior-year comparable period.
FFO applicable to common shareholders for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010, including the above net charges, was $32.7 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, which compares to a FFO loss of $116.6 million, or $0.80 per diluted share, for the prior-year comparable period. The increase in FFO for both the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010, is primarily the result of a decrease in impairment-related charges, gain on debt retirement and the equity derivative adjustment associated with the Otto investment.
Net loss applicable to common shareholders for the three-month period ended September 30, 2010, was $24.9 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, which compares to a net loss of $148.4 million, or $0.90 per diluted share, for the prior-year comparable period.
Net loss applicable to common shareholders for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010, was $156.8 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, which compares to a net loss of $308.7 million, or $2.11 per diluted share, for the prior-year comparable period. The decrease in net loss for both the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010, is primarily due to the same factors impacting FFO for the comparable periods.

On a blended basis, including the Brazil portfolio, leasing spreads increased by 5.0% during the quarter as compared to an increase of 4.3% for the U.S.-portion of the portfolio. The increase in leasing spreads for new leases marks an improvement from the increase of 3.9% for the portfolio reported in the second quarter of 2010.

DISPOSITIONS
The Company sold 11 consolidated shopping centers, aggregating approximately 0.7 million square feet, in the third quarter of 2010, generating gross proceeds of approximately $48.9 million. The Company recorded an aggregate net gain of approximately $0.9 million related to asset sales in the third quarter.
In the third quarter of 2010, one of the Company’s joint ventures sold a shopping center, aggregating approximately 0.4 million square feet, generating gross proceeds of approximately $27.2 million. The joint venture recorded an aggregate net loss of approximately $13.3 million related to the asset sale in the third quarter of which the Company’s proportionate share was approximately $2.8 million.
CAPITAL MARKETS ACTIVITIES
In October 2010, the Company entered into a new unsecured credit facility arranged by JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. The size of the facility was reduced to $950 million with an accordion feature up to $1.2 billion. In addition, the Company also entered into a new $65 million unsecured credit facility with PNC Bank, N.A. Both facilities mature in February 2014. The Company’s borrowings under these facilities bear interest at variable rates based on LIBOR plus 275 basis points and as determined by the Company’s current corporate credit ratings from Moody’s and S&P.
In October 2010, the Company amended its secured term loan with KeyBank National Association to conform the covenants to the new revolving credit facility provisions and repaid $200 million of the outstanding balance.

In September 2010, the Company sold approximately 5.1 million of its common shares through its continuous equity program, generating gross proceeds of $58.3 million. Proceeds from the equity issuance were used to fund $58.3 million of investments in loans secured by prime shopping centers.
In August 2010, the Company issued $300 million, aggregate principal amount of 7.875% senior unsecured notes due September 2020. Proceeds from the offering were used to repay amounts outstanding on the Company’s unsecured credit facilities.
2010 GUIDANCE
There is no change in guidance since the last update provided on April 22, 2010. The Company continues to estimate operating FFO for the year of $1.00-$1.05 per diluted share.
NON-GAAP DISCLOSURES
FFO is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measurement used as a standard in the real estate industry and a widely accepted measure of real estate investment trust (“REIT”) performance. Management believes that FFO and operating FFO provide additional indicators of the financial performance of a REIT. The Company also believes that FFO and operating FFO more appropriately measure the core operations of the Company and provide benchmarks to its peer group. Neither FFO nor operating FFO represents cash generated from operating activities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), is necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs and should be considered as an alternative to net income computed in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. FFO is defined and calculated by the Company as net income, adjusted to exclude: (i) preferred share dividends, (ii) gains from disposition of depreciable real estate property, except for those sold through the Company’s merchant building program, which are presented net of taxes, and those gains that represent the recapture of a previously recognized impairment charge, (iii) extraordinary items and (iv) certain non-cash items. These non-cash items principally include real property depreciation and amortization of intangibles, equity income from joint ventures and equity income from non-controlling interests and adding the Company’s proportionate share of FFO from its unconsolidated joint ventures and non-controlling interests, determined on a consistent basis. The Company calculates operating FFO by excluding the non-operating charges and gains described above. Other real estate companies may calculate FFO and operating FFO in a different manner. FFO excluding the net non-operating items detailed above is useful to investors as the Company removes these charges and gains to analyze the results of its operations and assess performance of the core operating real estate portfolio. A reconciliation of net (loss) income to FFO and operating FFO is presented in the financial highlights section.

(A)   Base and percentage rental revenues for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010, as compared to the prior-year comparable period, increased $6.2 million primarily due to the acquisition of three shopping centers and the completion of certain developments in 2009 which generated an additional $8.0 million in revenues.

In August 2010, the 25 assets owned by MV LLC were placed in the control of a court appointed receiver and as a result, the entity that holds the assets and nonrecourse mortgage loan was deconsolidated for accounting purposes pursuant to the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification No. 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”). Upon deconsolidation, the Company recorded a gain of approximately $5.6 million because the carrying value of the nonrecourse debt exceeded the carrying value of the collateralized assets. Following the deconsolidation, the Company will no longer have any economic rights or obligations in MV LLC. The revenues and expenses associated with MV LLC for the current and prior periods, including the $5.6 million gain, are classified within discontinued operations in the statements of operations.

(M)   Included in the Company’s balance sheet as of December 31, 2009, was $28.5 million of assets owned by a consolidated joint venture that was deconsolidated in accordance with the adoption of ASC 810 as of January 1, 2010.
