CEO Comments

“We are pleased with the continued solid performance of our business,” said John P. Case, Realty Income’s Chief Executive Officer. “During the quarter, we acquired $510 million of high-quality properties leased principally to investment grade rated tenants. Our focus on quality is reflected in the continued health of our portfolio, which now generates over 50% of rental revenue from investment grade rated tenants. We ended the quarter with occupancy of 98.6%, our highest quarter-end occupancy in more than 10 years. Additionally, we achieved a positive recapture spread on properties re-leased during the quarter.”

“We remain committed to capitalizing our business in a conservative manner. In April, we completed a $500 million, 7-year bond offering at an effective yield of 3.96%, reflecting the benefits afforded to us as the company with the highest-rated credit in the net lease sector. We’ve had a favorable start to the year and are reiterating our 2018 AFFO per share guidance of $3.14 - $3.20.”

Financial Results

Revenue

Revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 increased 6.8% to $318.3 million, as compared to $298.0 million for the same quarter in 2017.

Net Income Available to Common Stockholders

Net income available to common stockholders for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 was $83.2 million, as compared to $71.6 million for the same quarter in 2017. Net income per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 was $0.29, as compared to $0.27 for the same quarter in 2017.

Net income and funds from operations available to common stockholders for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 were impacted by a $13.4 million non-cash redemption charge on the Class F preferred shares that were redeemed in April 2017, which represented $0.05 per share. This charge was based on the excess of redemption value over the carrying value of the Class F preferred stock representing the original issuance cost that was paid in 2012.

The calculation to determine net income for a real estate company includes impairments, gains on property sales and/or fair value adjustments on interest rate swaps. These items can vary from quarter to quarter and can significantly impact net income and period to period comparisons.

Funds From Operations Available to Common Stockholders (FFO)

FFO for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 increased 20.1% to $224.9 million, as compared to $187.2 million for the same quarter in 2017. FFO per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 increased 11.3% to $0.79, as compared to $0.71 for the same quarter in 2017.

Adjusted Funds From Operations Available to Common Stockholders (AFFO)

AFFO for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 increased 11.6% to $224.6 million, as compared to $201.3 million for the same quarter in 2017. AFFO per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 increased 3.9% to $0.79, as compared to $0.76 for the same quarter in 2017.

The company considers FFO and AFFO to be appropriate supplemental measures of a Real Estate Investment Trust’s (REIT’s) operating performance. Realty Income defines FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts’ (NAREIT’s) definition, as net income available to common stockholders, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, plus impairments of real estate assets, and reduced by gains on property sales. AFFO further adjusts FFO for unique revenue and expense items, which the company believes are not as pertinent to the measurement of the company’s ongoing operating performance. Presentation of the information regarding FFO and AFFO is intended to assist the reader in comparing the operating performance of different REITs, although it should be noted that not all REITs calculate FFO and AFFO in the same way, so comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. FFO and AFFO should not be considered as alternatives to reviewing our cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities. In addition, FFO and AFFO should not be considered as measures of liquidity, our ability to make cash distributions, or our ability to pay interest payments. See the reconciliations of net income available to common stockholders to FFO and AFFO on pages five and six of this press release.

Dividend Increases

In March 2018, Realty Income announced the 82 nd consecutive quarterly dividend increase, which is the 96 th increase in the amount of the dividend since the company’s listing on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in 1994. The annualized dividend amount as of March 31, 2018 was $2.634 per share. The amount of monthly dividends paid per share increased 4.3% to $0.651 in the first quarter of 2018, as compared to $0.624 for the same quarter in 2017.

Real Estate Portfolio Update

As of March 31, 2018, Realty Income’s portfolio of freestanding, single-tenant properties consisted of 5,326 properties located in 49 states and Puerto Rico, leased to 254 different commercial tenants, and doing business in 47 industries. The properties are leased under long-term, net lease agreements with a weighted average remaining lease term of 9.4 years.

Portfolio Management Activities

The company’s portfolio of commercial real estate, owned primarily under long-term net leases, continues to perform well and provides dependable rental revenue supporting the payment of monthly dividends. As of March 31, 2018, portfolio occupancy was 98.6% with 75 properties available for lease out of a total of 5,326 properties in the portfolio, as compared to 98.4% as of December 31, 2017 and 98.3% as of March 31, 2017. Economic occupancy, or occupancy as measured by rental revenue, was 98.8% as of March 31, 2018, as compared to 98.5% as of December 31, 2017, and 99.0% as of March 31, 2017.

Since December 31, 2017, when the company reported 83 properties available for lease, the company had 58 lease expirations, re-leased 55 properties and sold 11 vacant properties during the quarter ended March 31, 2018. Of the 55 properties re-leased during the first quarter of 2018, 46 properties were re-leased to the same tenants, three were re-leased to new tenants without vacancy, and six were re-leased to new tenants after a period of vacancy. The annual new rent on these re-leases was $10.40 million, as compared to the previous annual rent of $10.36 million on the same properties, representing a rent recapture rate of 100.4% on the properties re-leased during the quarter ended March 31, 2018.

Rent Increases

During the quarter ended March 31, 2018, same store rents on 4,747 properties under lease increased 1.0% to $276.7 million, as compared to $274.0 million for the same quarter in 2017.

Investments in Real Estate

During the quarter ended March 31, 2018, Realty Income invested $509.8 million in 174 new properties and properties under development or expansion, located in 27 states. These properties are 100% leased with a weighted average lease term of approximately 14.0 years and an initial average cash lease yield of 6.2%. The tenants occupying the new properties operate in 12 industries, and are 100% retail, based on rental revenue. Approximately 85% of the rental revenue generated from acquisitions during the first quarter of 2018 is from investment grade rated tenants.

Property Dispositions

During the quarter ended March 31, 2018, Realty Income sold 14 properties for $13.8 million, with a gain on sales of $3.2 million, as compared to 14 properties sold for $31.2 million, with a gain on sales of $10.5 million, during the same quarter in 2017.

Liquidity and Capital Markets

Capital Raising

During the quarter ended March 31, 2018, Realty Income raised $2.3 million from the sale of common stock through our Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan, at a weighted average price of $51.08 per share.

In April 2018, Realty Income issued $500 million of senior unsecured notes due 2025 at an effective yield to maturity of 3.957%. The net proceeds of this offering were used to repay a portion of the borrowings outstanding under our $2.0 billion revolving credit facility, and to the extent not used for those purposes, to fund investment opportunities, and for other general corporate purposes.

Credit Facility

Realty Income has a $2.25 billion unsecured credit facility. This credit facility is comprised of a $2.0 billion revolving credit facility and a $250 million five-year unsecured term loan. The credit facility also has a $1.0 billion expansion feature. As of March 31, 2018, Realty Income had a borrowing capacity of $918.0 million available on its revolving credit facility. Following the use of proceeds from the April notes offering to repay borrowings under the revolving credit facility, the borrowing capacity of the revolving credit facility increased to $1.4 billion.

2018 Earnings Guidance

We estimate FFO per share for 2018 of $3.11 to $3.19. FFO per share for 2018 is based on a net income per share range of $1.21 to $1.29, plus estimated real estate depreciation and impairments of $1.97 per share, and reduced by potential estimated gains on sales of investment properties of $0.07 per share (in accordance with NAREIT’s definition of FFO).

We estimate AFFO per share for 2018 of $3.14 to $3.20. AFFO further adjusts FFO for unique revenue and expense items, which are not as pertinent to the measurement of Realty Income’s ongoing operating performance.

Note: All of these dividend yields are calculated as annualized dividends based on the last dividend paid in applicable time period divided by the closing price as of period end. Dividend yield sources: NAREIT website and Bloomberg, except for the 1994 NASDAQ dividend yield which was sourced from Datastream / Thomson Financial.

(1) FTSE NAREIT US Equity REIT Index, as per NAREIT website.

(2) Calculated as the difference between the closing stock price as of period end less the closing stock price as of previous period, plus dividends paid in period, divided by closing stock price as of end of previous period. Does not include reinvestment of dividends for the annual percentages.

(3) Includes reinvestment of dividends. Source: NAREIT website and Factset.

(4) Price only index, does not include dividends as NASDAQ did not report total return metrics for the entirety of the measurement period. Source: Factset.

(5) All of these Compound Average Annual Total Return rates are calculated in the same manner: from Realty Income’s NYSE listing on October 18, 1994 through March 31, 2018, and (except for NASDAQ) assuming reinvestment of dividends. Past performance does not guarantee future performance.
