- Managing through Challenging Retail Environment - Results Consistent with Prior Guidance - Cost Saving Initiatives Contribute to Results - Strong Balance Sheet BLOOMFIELD HILLS, Mich., July 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Taubman Centers, Inc. (NYSE:TCO) today announced its financial results for the second quarter of 2009. (Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20080428/CLM116LOGO ) Net income allocable to common shareholders per diluted share (EPS) was $0.17 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009, up from $0.01 for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. EPS for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $0.38, up from $0.09 for the first six months of 2008. Taubman Centers' Funds from Operations (FFO) per diluted share was $0.65 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 versus $0.66 for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, Taubman Centers' FFO per diluted share was $1.35 versus $1.34 for the first six months of 2008. Excluding the restructuring charge incurred in 2009, the company's Adjusted FFO per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2009 was $1.38, an increase of 3.0 percent from the first six months of 2008. "The environment for retail real estate continues to be challenging," said Robert S. Taubman, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Taubman Centers. "Lease cancellation income from our tenants offset a decline in rents. In addition, we are very focused on costs throughout our organization, which contributed to our results during the quarter." The company reported a four cent favorable variance in expenses for the quarter. Operating Statistics Ending occupancy for Taubman's portfolio was 88.6 percent on June 30, 2009 versus 90.1 percent on June 30, 2008, a decline primarily due to the closing in late 2008 of three big box store locations at the company's value centers, which were part of national bankruptcies. Average rent per square foot in the company's 16 consolidated properties for the second quarter of 2009 was $43.00, versus $44.40 for the second quarter of 2008. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, average rent per square foot in the consolidated properties was $44.02 versus $44.06 in the six months ended June 30, 2008. Mall tenant sales per square foot declined 11.2 percent from the second quarter of 2008. For the twelve months ended June 30, 2009, mall tenant sales per square foot were down 9.8 percent to $508 per square foot. "Weakness in the U.S. economy continues to impact retailers," said Mr. Taubman. "As expected, this was reflected in our operating results. Nonetheless, leasing continues to be active with retailers planning openings in 2010 and 2011, when they expect conditions to improve." Strong Balance Sheet "Our strong balance sheet is providing the operating flexibility to weather these tough conditions," said Lisa A. Payne, vice chairman and chief financial officer of Taubman Centers. "We have no debt maturities until the fall of 2010 and collectively through 2011, only about 13 percent of our share of total debt matures." The company's secured credit lines total $590 million and mature in 2011 with a one year extension option to 2012 on $550 million of the lines. As of June 30, $382 million was available for use. Guidance The company is modestly narrowing its guidance on 2009 FFO per diluted share from the previously announced $2.69 to $2.94 to $2.70 to $2.90. Excluding the restructuring charge that was recognized in 2009, the company expects 2009 Adjusted FFO per diluted share to be in the range of $2.73 to $2.93. The company also is modestly narrowing its guidance for 2009 EPS to $0.71 to $0.96.

Consequently, noncontrolling interests in consolidated subsidiaries with equity balances of less than zero are now allocated income equal to their ownership interests in the subsidiaries. Under previous accounting, because the net equity balances of the Operating Partnership and the outside partners in certain consolidated joint ventures were less than zero, the income attributable to the noncontrolling partners was equal to their share of distributions. The net equity of these noncontrolling partners is less than zero due to accumulated distributions in excess of net income and not as a result of operating losses. Net income attributable to Taubman Centers, Inc. common shareowners for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 would have been $1.6 and $6.1 million, respectively or $0.03 and $0.11 per common share, respectively if accounted for under the previous method of accounting for noncontrolling interests prior to SFAS 160. Certain 2008 amounts within tables 1 to 6 of this press release have been reclassified to conform with 2009 classifications. (2) Includes $0.2 million and $2.6 million of restructuring charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively. No similar charges were incurred in 2008. (3) Beneficial Interest in EBITDA represents the Operating Partnership's share of the earnings before interest, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization of its consolidated and unconsolidated businesses. The Company believes Beneficial Interest in EBITDA provides a useful indicator of operating performance, as it is customary in the real estate and shopping center business to evaluate the performance of properties on a basis unaffected by capital structure. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT) defines Funds from Operations (FFO) as net income (computed in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP)), excluding gains from extraordinary items and sales of properties, plus real estate related depreciation and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The Company believes that FFO is a useful supplemental measure of operating performance for REITs. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, the Company and most industry investors and analysts have considered presentations of operating results that exclude historical cost depreciation to be useful in evaluating the operating performance of REITs. FFO is primarily used by the Company in measuring performance and in formulating corporate goals and compensation. These non-GAAP measures as presented by the Company are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures used by other REITs due to the fact that not all REITs use common definitions. None of these non-GAAP measures should be considered alternatives to net income as an indicator of the Company's operating performance, and they do not represent cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities as defined by GAAP.
