BOSTON PROPERTIES ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER 2021 RESULTS; REPORTS EPS OF $0.71 AND FFO PER SHARE OF $1.72
Exceeds EPS and FFO Guidance for Q2; Announces Acquisitions to Establish a New Market Presence in Seattle, Broaden its Life Sciences Portfolio and Expand into NYC’s Midtown South Submarket
BOSTON, MA, July 27, 2021 - Boston Properties, Inc. (NYSE: BXP), the largest publicly-traded developer, owner and manager of Class A office properties in the United States, reported results today for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021.
Financial highlights for the second quarter include:
•Net income attributable to common shareholders of $111.7 million, or $0.71 per diluted share (EPS), compared to $266.5 million, or $1.71 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in EPS in the second quarter of 2021 was due to gains on asset sales in the second quarter of 2020 that did not reoccur in 2021.
•Funds from Operations (FFO) of $268.6 million, or $1.72 per diluted share, compared to FFO of $236.9 million, or $1.52 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.
◦FFO of $1.72 per diluted share was $0.12 greater than the mid-point of the Company's second quarter guidance provided on April 27, 2021, primarily due to improved portfolio performance of $0.06, higher-than-projected parking, hotel and retail income of $0.03 and higher-than-projected termination income of $0.03 in the quarter. The improved portfolio performance in the quarter included approximately $0.03 of lower-than-projected expenses that have been deferred into the third quarter of 2021.
The Company provided guidance for the third of quarter 2021 with projected EPS of $1.28 - $1.30 and projected FFO of $1.68 - $1.70 per diluted share. See “EPS and FFO per Share Guidance” below.
Second quarter and recent business highlights include:
•Signed approximately 1.2 million square feet of leases in the second quarter with a weighted-average lease term of 7.5 years. This reflects leasing volume of more than double the total square feet of leases executed in first quarter of 2021. Notable leases signed during the second quarter include:
◦a 351,000 square-foot, seven-year lease with a leading entertainment company at Colorado Center, in Santa Monica, California.
◦a 140,000 square-foot expansion lease with a technology company at Santa Monica Business Park in Santa Monica, California.
◦a 98,000 square-foot, 12-year lease with a large consulting company at Metropolitan Square in Washington, DC.
◦a 77,000 square-foot lease expansion and extension with a technology security company in Reston, Virginia.
–more–

◦a 36,000 square-foot lease extension with a technology provider in Waltham, Massachusetts.
◦a 26,000 square-foot lease extension with a legal services company at Embarcadero Center in San Francisco, California.
◦a 25,000 square-foot, 11-year lease expansion with a financial services company at 399 Park Avenue in New York, New York.
•Secured several new acquisitions during and subsequent to the quarter including:
◦Safeco Plaza, an 800,000 square-foot Class A office building in Seattle, Washington. The property is approximately 90% leased. This marks BXP’s initial entry into the Seattle market, one of the most vibrant markets in the U.S. for companies in the technology, life sciences, manufacturing and financial services sectors. The Company expects to close the acquisition in September 2021 for a purchase price of approximately $465 million. BXP expects to purchase this in a joint venture and hold up to a 51% ownership in the property.
◦360 Park Avenue South, a 450,000 square-foot 20-story office property located in the Midtown South submarket of Manhattan, New York. The property is fully leased to a single tenant who will be vacating in late 2021 providing BXP with the opportunity to complete extensive upgrades and transform the property into a premier modern building that will attract Class A clients. The Company expects to close the acquisition in December 2021 for a purchase price of approximately $300 million, including the assumption of approximately $202 million of debt and the issuance of approximately $98 million of operating partnership units.
◦Shady Grove Bio+Tech Campus, consisting of seven buildings totaling approximately 435,000 square-feet in the Shady Grove area of Rockville, Maryland, a region that is home to more than 400 companies in the biotechnology and life sciences sector. BXP plans to convert the office buildings on the campus to lab to meet current and growing demand in the region from biotechnology companies for new, Class A lab space. The Company expects to begin reconstruction of three of the buildings, which are currently vacant, promptly after closing. The Company expects to close the acquisition in August 2021 for a purchase price of approximately $116.5 million.
◦153 & 211 Second Avenue, two lab properties comprising 137,000 square-feet in Waltham, Massachusetts, a highly desirable location for leading and emerging companies in the life sciences and biotechnology sector. The Company acquired the two lab buildings in June 2021 for a gross purchase price of approximately $100 million in cash. The properties are 100% leased.
•Entered into an agreement to sell 181,191 and 201 Spring Street, in Lexington, Massachusetts for an aggregate gross sales price of $191.5 million. 181,191 and 201 Spring Street is a three-building, 333,000 square-foot complex that is 100% leased. The Company anticipates closing on the sale in September 2021.
•Established a co-investment program with Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (“CPP Investments”) and GIC for future acquisitions of select office properties in the United States. The partners have targeted an aggregate of $1.0 billion of equity to the program, with BXP and CPP Investments each allocating $250 million and GIC allocating $500 million. The partnership expects to employ leverage allowing for an initial investment capacity of approximately $2.0 billion. With these capital commitments, BXP expects to be able to

accelerate the pace at which it can pursue acquisition opportunities and extend its investment capacity.
•Amended and restated the Company’s revolving credit agreement (the “2021 Credit Facility”). The 2021 Credit Facility provides for borrowings of up to $1.5 billion through an unsecured revolving credit facility, subject to customary conditions, and expires in June 2026. For additional detail on the terms and conditions of the 2021 Credit Facility, refer to the Company's Form 8-K filed on June 16, 2021.
The pending acquisitions and dispositions described above are subject to customary closing conditions, and there can be no assurance that the Company will complete the transactions on the terms currently contemplated or at all.
The reported results are unaudited and there can be no assurance that these reported results will not vary from the final information for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. In the opinion of management, the Company has made all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of these reported results.
EPS and FFO per Share Guidance:
The Company’s guidance for the third quarter 2021 for EPS (diluted) and FFO per share (diluted) is set forth and reconciled below. Except as described below, the estimates reflect management’s view of current and future market conditions, including assumptions with respect to rental rates, occupancy levels, the timing of the lease-up of available space and the earnings impact of the events referenced in this release and those referenced during the related conference call. Except as otherwise publicly disclosed, the estimates do not include possible future gains or losses or the impact on operating results from other possible future property acquisitions or dispositions, possible gains or losses from capital markets activity (including, without limitation, due to the early extinguishment of debt and resulting from hedging activity and derivatives), possible future write-offs or reinstatement of accounts receivable and accrued rent or possible future impairment charges. Actual EPS results may be subject to fluctuations as a result of several factors, including changes in the recognition of depreciation and amortization expense, impairment losses on depreciable real estate and any gains or losses associated with disposition activity. The Company is not able t o assess at this time the potential impact of these factors on projected EPS. By definition, FFO does not include real estate-related depreciation and amortization, impairment losses on depreciable real estate or gains or losses associated with disposition activities. There can be no assurance that the Company’s actual results will not differ materially from the estimates set forth below.

(1)Pursuant to the revised definition of Funds from Operations adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”), we calculate Funds from Operations, or “FFO,” by adjusting net income (loss) attributable to Boston Properties, Inc. common shareholders (computed in accordance with GAAP) for gains (or losses) from sales of properties, impairment losses on depreciable real estate consolidated on our balance sheet, impairment losses on our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures driven by a measurable decrease in the fair value of depreciable real estate held by the unconsolidated joint ventures and real estate-related depreciation and amortization. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure, but we believe the presentation of FFO, combined with the presentation of required GAAP financial measures, has improved the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and has helped make comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. Management generally considers FFO and FFO per share to be useful measures for understanding and comparing our operating results because, by excluding gains and losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, impairment losses and real estate asset depreciation and amortization (which can differ across owners of similar assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO and FFO per share can help investors compare the operating performance of a company’s real estate across reporting periods and to the operating performance of other companies.
Our computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that do not define the term in accordance with the current Nareit definition or that interpret the current Nareit definition differently.
In order to facilitate a clear understanding of the Company’s operating results, FFO should be examined in conjunction with net income attributable to Boston Properties, Inc. common shareholders as presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. FFO should not be considered as a substitute for net income attributable to Boston Properties, Inc. common shareholders (determined in accordance with GAAP) or any other GAAP financial measures and should only be considered together with and as a supplement to the Company’s financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
