For a reconciliation of FFO to FFO, as adjusted, for the periods presented, please refer to the footnotes to the Company’s reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders to FFO allocable to Operating Partnership common unitholders on page 10 of this news release.

For the Predecessor periods, FFO, as adjusted, allocable to Operating Partnership common unitholders, did not include interest expense related to the senior secured notes and credit facility. Interest payments on these loans were not required to be made during the Predecessor periods due to the Company’s bankruptcy filing on November 1, 2020.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

  • Consistent strong occupancy increases, higher percentage and other rents contributed to improvement in 2022 same-center NOI to $443.4 million. FFO, as adjusted for the year, for 2022 was $243.5 million, which was above previously issued guidance.
  • CBL's Board of Directors declared a 50% increase in the regular quarterly dividend rate for the first quarter 2023 to $0.375 per share. During 2022, CBL’s Board of Directors declared a total of $2.95 per share in dividends on its common stock, including $0.75 per share in regular quarterly dividends as well as a special all-cash dividend of $2.20 per share, demonstrating CBL's commitment to returning value to shareholders.
  • Portfolio occupancy as of December 31, 2022, was 91.0%, representing a 170-basis-point increase from occupancy of 89.3% as of December 31, 2021 and an increase of 50-basis-points from occupancy of 90.5% as of September 30, 2022. Same-center occupancy for malls, lifestyle centers and outlet centers was 89.6% as of December 31, 2022, a 170-basis-point increase from 87.9% as of December 31, 2021.
  • Fourth quarter new and renewal comparable space leases were signed at 4.5% lower average rents versus the prior leases. The decline was driven by 10 renewal leases with one tenant. Excluding these 10 renewal leases, average renewal and total lease spreads were flat.
  • Same-center tenant sales per square foot for the 12-months ended December 31, 2022, declined 2.6% to $435, compared with $447 for the prior period.
  • As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $337.1 million of unrestricted cash and marketable securities.
  • CBL issues 2023 FFO, as adjusted, per share, guidance in the range of $5.85 - $6.47 and 2023 same-center NOI guidance in the range of $418 million - $440 million. Guidance assumes that positive trends in occupancy and operations are offset by lower percentage rent, an unfavorable variance in the estimate for uncollectable revenues due to lower recoveries, and the net impact of lease spreads. FFO, as adjusted is also impacted by higher interest expense, primarily related to floating rate debt. More details outlined below.

“CBL enjoyed a strong and successful 2022 in all respects," said Stephen D. Lebovitz, CBL's chief executive officer. “We are pleased with our excellent fourth quarter and full-year 2022 operational and financial results, highlighted by adjusted FFO and NOI above expectations. This performance was driven primarily by strong occupancy growth both sequentially and year-over-year with portfolio occupancy improving 170 basis points over year-end 2021. Our results also benefited from higher specialty income and percentage rents and disciplined expense management. We were cautious going into the year given the macro-economic challenges, including interest rate hikes and inflationary pressure. Despite these headwinds, we enjoyed healthy tenant demand and limited store bankruptcies or closings. Traffic at our properties confirmed the consumers’ ongoing support of in-person shopping and experiences with full-year sales per square foot just 2.6% lower than 2021 levels, while remaining more than 12% above pre-pandemic levels in 2019.

"Our guidance for 2023 reflects our expectation for additional occupancy gains as new tenant demand remains at a high level. We are adding new restaurants, entertainment users and successful regional and local retailers. Additionally, expenses are expected to remain relatively in-line despite inflationary pressures. However, we expect a greater impact from bankruptcies and store closures in 2023 based on recent tenant announcements and reviews of tenant credit risk, and a lower contribution from percentage rents with the expectation that sales will moderate. Generally, new leasing demand remains healthy, and we have significant activity occurring across our portfolio that will contribute to our cash flows in 2023 and going forward.

"Our 2022 results and significant free cash flow has contributed to our strong cash balance, which funded the return of significant value to shareholders in 2022 through more than $91 million in cash dividends. We further demonstrated our commitment to our shareholders with the recently announced 50% increase in our regular quarterly dividend and are committed to pursuing opportunities that would meaningfully contribute to shareholder value in the future. The strength and flexibility of our balance sheet improved materially in 2022, with over $1.1 billion in financing activity completed. Major milestone achievements include refinancing our 10% Notes with non-recourse mortgage debt at favorable spreads to the prior rate, as well as several other notable financings through the year. As a result, we enjoy a balance sheet comprised almost-exclusively of non-recourse mortgage debt with significant ongoing amortization reducing leverage further."

Same-Center NOI growth for the full-year 2022 benefited from new rent related to occupancy improvements, higher percentage rents and a positive variance due to the recovery of uncollectable revenues partially offset by the impact of negative renewal lease spreads and a moderate increase in operating expenses primarily related to inflationary pressure.

DIVIDEND

On February 16, 2023, CBL’s Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend for the three months ended March 31, 2023, of $0.375 per share, representing an increase of 50%. The dividend, which equates to an annual dividend payment of $1.50 per share, is payable on March 31, 2023, to shareholders of record as of March 15, 2023.

FINANCING ACTIVITY

In 2022, CBL completed more than $1.1 billion in financing activity. Details of financings completed in the fourth quarter 2022 and year-to-date 2023 are outlined below.

In October, CBL finalized the modification of the loan secured by Southpark Mall in Richmond, VA ($54.4 million). The loan was extended through June 2026 at the existing interest rate of 4.85%.

Additionally in October, the modification of the $35.2 million recourse loan secured by The Outlet Shoppes at Gettysburg in Gettysburg, PA was completed. The loan balance was reduced to $21.0 million ($10.5 million at CBL's share), and the loan was converted to non-recourse.

In October, the foreclosure of Greenbrier Mall in Chesapeake, VA ($61.6 million) was completed. CBL is cooperating with the foreclosure or conveyance of Westgate Mall in Spartanburg, SC, ($29.0 million) and Alamance Crossing East in Burlington, NC, ($41.4 million) and anticipates that the properties will be placed into receivership imminently. CBL does not recognize earnings or receive cash flow from the properties in receivership.

In October, CBL completed a short-term extension to January 2023 for the loan secured by Cross Creek Mall in Fayetteville, NC ($97.4 million). CBL is in discussions with the lender for a two-year extension/modification of the loan, which it anticipates closing within 90 days. CBL is also in discussions with the lender for a potential extension/modification of the loan secured by West County Center located in St. Louis, MO ($80.9 million at CBL’s share).

DISPOSITIONS

During the fourth quarter 2022, CBL completed the sale of five land parcels generating $4.5 million in gross proceeds at CBL's share. Year-to-date, CBL has generated more than $13.4 million from dispositions, at its share.

DEVELOPMENT AND REDEVELOPMENT ACTIVITY

In January 2023, CBL Properties and Vision Hospitality Group, Inc. announced a 50/50 joint venture to develop a 139-room Element by Westin at Mayfaire Town Center in Wilmington, North Carolina. The new hotel marks the brand’s entrance into the Wilmington market. The 83,000-square-foot hotel will be located on International Drive.

Detailed project information is available in CBL’s Financial Supplement for Q4 2022, which can be found in the Invest – Financial Reports section of CBL’s website at cblproperties.com.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Funds From Operations

FFO is a widely used non-GAAP measure of the operating performance of real estate companies that supplements net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") defines FFO as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding gains or losses on sales of depreciable operating properties and impairment losses of depreciable properties, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures and noncontrolling interests. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures and noncontrolling interests are calculated on the same basis. We define FFO as defined above by NAREIT. The Company’s method of calculating FFO may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

The Company believes that FFO provides an additional indicator of the operating performance of its properties without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which assumes the value of real estate assets declines predictably over time. Since values of well-maintained real estate assets have historically risen with market conditions, the Company believes that FFO enhances investors’ understanding of its operating performance. The use of FFO as an indicator of financial performance is influenced not only by the operations of the Company’s properties and interest rates, but also by its capital structure.

The Company believes FFO allocable to Operating Partnership common unitholders is a useful performance measure since it conducts substantially all of its business through its Operating Partnership and, therefore, it reflects the performance of the properties in absolute terms regardless of the ratio of ownership interests of the Company’s common shareholders and the noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership.

In the reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to the Company’s common shareholders to FFO allocable to Operating Partnership common unitholders, located in this earnings release, the Company makes an adjustment to add back noncontrolling interest in income (loss) of its Operating Partnership in order to arrive at FFO of the Operating Partnership common unitholders.

FFO does not represent cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP, is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) for purposes of evaluating the Company’s operating performance or to cash flow as a measure of liquidity.

The Company believes that it is important to identify the impact of certain significant items on its FFO measures for a reader to have a complete understanding of the Company’s results of operations. Therefore, the Company has also presented adjusted FFO measures excluding these items from the applicable periods. Please refer to the reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders to FFO allocable to Operating Partnership common unitholders on page 10 of this news release for a description of these adjustments.

Same-center Net Operating Income

NOI is a supplemental non-GAAP measure of the operating performance of the Company’s shopping centers and other properties. The Company defines NOI as property operating revenues (rental revenues, tenant reimbursements and other income) less property operating expenses (property operating, real estate taxes and maintenance and repairs).

The Company computes NOI based on the Operating Partnership’s pro rata share of both consolidated and unconsolidated properties. The Company believes that presenting NOI and same-center NOI (described below) based on its Operating Partnership’s pro rata share of both consolidated and unconsolidated properties is useful since the Company conducts substantially all of its business through its Operating Partnership and, therefore, it reflects the performance of the properties in absolute terms regardless of the ratio of ownership interests of the Company’s common shareholders and the noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership. The Company's definition of NOI may be different than that used by other companies and, accordingly, the Company's calculation of NOI may not be comparable to that of other companies.

Since NOI includes only those revenues and expenses related to the operations of the Company’s shopping center properties, the Company believes that same-center NOI provides a measure that reflects trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, sales at the malls and operating costs and the impact of those trends on the Company’s results of operations. The Company’s calculation of same-center NOI excludes lease termination income, straight-line rent adjustments, amortization of above and below market lease intangibles and write-off of landlord inducement assets in order to enhance the comparability of results from one period to another. A reconciliation of same-center NOI to net income (loss) is located at the end of this earnings release.

Pro Rata Share of Debt

The Company presents debt based on the carrying value of its pro rata ownership share (including the carrying value of the Company’s pro rata share of unconsolidated affiliates and excluding noncontrolling interests’ share of consolidated properties) because it believes this provides investors a clearer understanding of the Company’s total debt obligations which affect the Company’s liquidity. A reconciliation of the Company’s pro rata share of debt to the amount of debt on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet is located at the end of this earnings release.

CBL defines NOI as property operating revenues (rental revenues, tenant reimbursements and other income), less property operating expenses (property operating, real estate taxes and maintenance and repairs). NOI excludes lease termination income, straight-line rent adjustments, amortization of above and below market lease intangibles and write-offs of landlord inducement assets. We include a property in our same-center pool when we own all or a portion of the property as of December 31, 2022, and we owned it and it was in operation for both the entire preceding calendar year and the current year-to-date reporting period ending December 31, 2022. New properties are excluded from same-center NOI, until they meet these criteria. Properties excluded from the same-center pool that would otherwise meet these criteria are properties which are under major redevelopment or being considered for repositioning, where we intend to renegotiate the terms of the debt secured by the related property or return the property to the lender. Same-center NOI of the Successor company was $120,426 for the three months ended December 31, 2022. Same-center NOI of the Successor company for the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021 was $85,818. Same-center NOI of the Predecessor company for the period from October 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 was $35,679. Same-center NOI of the Successor company was 0.9% lower for the three months ended December 31, 2022.
