![]() 27 Definition of non-GAAP financial measures This presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that management
believes are helpful in understanding our business, as further described below. Our definition and calculation of non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of other REITs, and, therefore, may not be comparable. The non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to net income or any other GAAP
measurement of performance and should not be considered an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as a measure of liquidity.
Funds from Operations (FFO) We calculate Funds from Operations, or FFO, in accordance with the standards established
by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT. FFO represents net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or
losses) from sales of property, real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) and after adjustments
for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Management uses FFO as a supplemental performance measure because, in excluding real estate related depreciation
and amortization and gains and losses from property dispositions, it provides a performance measure that,when compared year over year, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. We also believe that, as awidely recognized measure of the performance of REITs, FFO will be used by investors as a basis to compare our operating performance with that of other REITs. However, because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in
the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the
operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our results from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of our performance is limited. Other REITs may not calculate FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition and, accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to such other REITs FFO. Accordingly, FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of our performance. Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO) We present adjusted funds from operations, or AFFO, as a supplemental operating measure
because, when compared year over year, it assesses our ability to fund dividend and distribution requirements from our operating activities. We also believe
that, as a widely recognized measure of the operations of REITs, AFFO will be used by investors as a basis to assess our ability to fund dividend payments in comparison to
other REITs. We calculate adjusted funds from operations, or AFFO, by adding to or subtracting from FFO (i) non-real estate depreciation, (ii) amortization of
deferred financing costs (iii) non cash compensation (iv) loss from early extinguishment of debt (v) straight line rents (vi) fair value of lease revenue amortization (vii)
capitalized leasing payroll (viii) recurring tenant improvements and (ix) capitalized leasing commissions. Other equity REITs may not calculate AFFO in a consistent manner. Accordingly, our AFFO may not be comparable to other equity REITs AFFO. AFFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income computed in accordance with GAAP as a measure of our operations. Net Operating Income (NOI) and Cash NOI NOI represents rental revenue and tenant reimbursement revenue less rental property
operating and maintenance, property taxes and insurance expenses (as reflected in statement of operations). NOI is commonly used by stockholders, company management
and industry analysts as a measurement of operating performance of the companys rental portfolio. Cash NOI is NOI less straight-line rents and above
and below market rent amortization. Cash NOI is commonly used by stockholders, company management and industry analysts as a measure of property operating performance
on a cash basis. However, because NOI and cash NOI exclude depreciation and amortization and capture neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of
our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our results from operations, the utility of NOI and cash NOI as measures of our
performance is limited. Other REITs may not calculate NOI and cash NOI in the same manner we do and, accordingly, our NOI and cash NOI may not be comparable to such other REITs NOI and cash NOI. Accordingly, NOI and cash NOI should be considered only as supplements to net income as measures of our performance. Earnings Before Interest Taxes Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) We present Earnings Before Interest Taxes Depreciation and Amortization or EBITDA as a
supplemental operating measure because, because in excluding interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, it permits investors to view income from operations without the impact of the cost of debt, non cash depreciation and amortization and taxes. We also believe that, as a widely recognized measure of the performance of other
companies in the data center industry that will be used by investors as a basis to compare our operating performance with that of others in that industry. However, because EBITDA excludes interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the current level of capital expenditures and other capitalized items, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our results
from operations, the utility of EBITDA as a measure of our performance is limited. Accordingly, EBITDA should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a
measure of our performance. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA adjusted for preferred dividends and minority interest. Each of FFO and Adjusted EBITDA exclude items that have real economic effect and could
materially impact our results from operations, and therefore the utility of FFO and Adjusted EBTIDA as a measure of our performance is limited. Nothing contained herein is intended to revise or confirm the earnings, FFO or acquisition guidance we discussed on our Earnings Conference Call held on November 7, 2007 and available on our website at www.digitalrealtytrust.com.
