CBRE Realty Finance, Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2008 Results
Financial Results and Other Significant Events:
By: PR Newswire
Nov. 4, 2008 07:30 AM
CBRE Realty Finance reported third quarter net loss of Adjusted funds from operations ("AFFO") for the third quarter of 2008,
which exclude the results of discontinued operations and any impact from the
application of SFAS 159, was (Page 1) Internalization As announced in prior quarters, Goldman Sachs was engaged to evaluate a range of strategic and operational initiatives to enhance stockholder value that included a possible sale of the Company, merger or other business combination, capital investment and/or other strategic alternatives. After exploring each of these alternatives, the Company's Board of Directors and management believe that at this time it is in the best interest of the stockholders to internalize management. It has been mutually determined by the Company and CB Richard Ellis Group,
Inc. (NYSE: CBG) that the management agreement between the Company and CBRE
Realty Finance Management, LLC (the "Manager"), an indirect subsidiary of CB
Richard Ellis, will not be renewed when it expires on "We believe that becoming an internally managed company is the right decision," said Mr. Witkin. "We have the depth and resources to fulfill the full range of functions needed to operate as an internally managed company. We appreciate the sponsorship and support of CB Richard Ellis. We have a good relationship with CB Richard Ellis and going forward we expect to continue to do business with them as well as with other commercial real estate firms." In contemplation with the internalization, Commenting on the resignations of Messrs. Melody and Marks, Mr. Witkin said, "Mike and David have served on our Board of Directors since 2005 and have each provided invaluable counsel and insight in their time at CBRE Realty Finance. On behalf of the entire team, I would like to thank them both for their efforts on our Board." NYSE Compliance The Company was notified by the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") on

CBRE Realty Finance, Inc. is a commercial real estate specialty finance company primarily focused on originating, acquiring, investing in, financing and managing a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate-related loans and securities. CBRE Realty Finance has elected to qualify to be taxed as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, for federal income tax purposes. CBRE Realty Finance is externally managed and advised by CBRE Realty Finance Management, LLC, an indirect subsidiary of CB Richard Ellis Group, Inc. and a direct subsidiary of CBRE/Melody & Company. For more information on the Company, please visit the Company's website at http://www.cbrerealtyfinance.com. (Page 5) Non-GAAP Financial Measures During the quarterly conference call, the Company may discuss non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC Regulation G. In addition, the Company has used non-GAAP financial measures, such as FFO, and AFFO in this press release. A reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure and the comparable GAAP financial measure (net income) can be found on page 10 of this release. Funds from Operations ("FFO") and Adjusted Funds From Operations ("AFFO")
are non-GAAP financial measures, which are widely recognized measures of REIT
performance. The Company computes FFO in accordance with standards established
by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), which
may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not compute FFO
in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or that interpret the NAREIT
definition differently than the Company does. The revised White Paper on FFO
approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT in AFFO is a computation often made by REIT industry analysts and investors to measure a real estate company's cash flow generated from operations. The Company believes that AFFO is helpful to investors as a measure of its liquidity position because, along with cash generated from operating activities, this measure provides investors with an understanding of its ability to pay dividends. In addition, because this measure is commonly used in the REIT industry, the Company's use of AFFO may assist investors in comparing its liquidity position with that of other REITs. Further, it is the financial measure upon which incentive compensation payable under the Company's management agreement is payable.
The Company calculates AFFO by subtracting from or adding to FFO:
-- normalized recurring expenditures that are capitalized by us and then
amortized, but which are necessary to maintain the Company's properties
and revenue stream, e.g., leasing commissions and tenant improvement
allowances;
-- an adjustment to reverse the effects of straight-lining of rents and
fair value lease revenue under SFAS 141;
-- the amortization or accrual of various deferred costs including
intangible assets and equity based compensation;
-- unrealized gains or losses on derivative transactions and financial
instruments including the impact from the adoption of, and continuing
application of, SFAS 159; and
-- results from discontinued operations.
(Page 6)
The Company's calculation of AFFO differs from the methodology used for calculating AFFO by certain other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. Neither FFO nor AFFO represent cash generated from operating activities or net income in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP), as a measure of liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund the Company's cash needs, including the Company's ability to make cash distributions. The Company urges investors to carefully review the GAAP financial information included as part of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and quarterly earnings releases. Forward-Looking Information This press release contains forward-looking statements based upon the
Company's beliefs, assumptions and expectations of its future performance,
taking into account all information currently available. These beliefs,
assumptions and expectations can change as a result of many possible events or
factors, not all of which are known to the Company or are within its control.
If a change occurs, the Company's business, financial condition, liquidity and
results of operations may vary materially from those expressed in its forward-
looking statements. The factors that could cause actual results to vary from
the Company's forward-looking statements include the Company's future
operating results, its business operations and prospects, general volatility
of the securities market in which the Company invests and the market prices of
its common stock, the effect of trading on the OTCBB, the Company's ability to
begin making investments in the future, availability, terms and deployment of
short-term and long-term capital, availability of qualified personnel, changes
in the industry, interest rates, the debt securities, credit and capital
markets, the general economy or the commercial finance and real estate markets
specifically, performance and financial condition of borrowers and corporate
customers, increased prepayments of the mortgage and other loans underlying
the Company's investments, the status of the class action lawsuit, the
potential derivative shareholder claim and any future litigation that may
arise, the ultimate resolution of the Company's five non-performing loans
totaling
