Acadia Realty Trust (NYSE: AKR) (“Acadia” or the “Company”) today reported operating results for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. All per share amounts are on a fully-diluted basis, where applicable. Acadia owns and operates a high-quality real estate portfolio of street and open-air retail properties in the nation's most dynamic retail corridors ("Core" or "Core Portfolio"), along with an investment management platform that targets opportunistic and value-add investments through its institutional co-investment vehicles ("Investment Management").

Kenneth F. Bernstein, President and CEO of Acadia, commented:

 

“We concluded the year with strong performance from all of the key drivers of our business. We delivered same-property NOI growth of 5.7%, driven by the strong performance of our street portfolio. Adding to the strong performance of our existing assets, we completed over $600 million of accretive Core and Investment Management acquisitions. The street retail additions to our core portfolio in New York City (SoHo, Williamsburg, and the West Village), and Washington D.C. (Georgetown), further expand our highly differentiated portfolio of best-in-class retail in the major must-have retail corridors in the United States. To fund our expansion, we have raised approximately $740 million of equity, which funded our acquisitions and redevelopments, along with providing the dry powder to add additional accretive investment opportunities. As we begin the new year, we are well positioned to continue to deliver strong internal growth through the continued strength of our Core portfolio, as well as accretive external growth."

• Georgetown, Washington, D.C. In January 2025, the Company acquired an additional 48% interest (increasing its existing 20% interest to approximately 68%) in a portfolio of properties which are primarily located in Georgetown, Washington D.C. The 48% interest was acquired for a purchase price of approximately $117 million, based upon a gross portfolio value of approximately $245 million.

  • 92-94 Greene Street, Manhattan, New York. As previously announced, in October 2024 the Company closed on 92-94 Greene Street for approximately $43 million.

These additions are adjacent to the Company's existing holdings and provide for additional expansion and lease-up opportunities along with enhancing continuity and giving greater control over the direction of this emerging retail corridor. As previously announced, in October 2024, the Company, in partnership with Ignite-Rebees, commenced construction for the Henderson Avenue Corridor Expansion to transform the corridor into a vibrant, walkable, street retail destination.

ACADIA REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES

    

Notes to Financial Highlights:

 

 

 

 

 

 

(1)

 

For additional information and analysis concerning the Company’s balance sheet and results of operations, reference is made to the Company’s quarterly supplemental disclosures for the relevant periods furnished on the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K, which is available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov and on the Company’s website at www.acadiarealty.com.

 

 

 

 

 

(2)

 

Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares of the Company were exercised or converted into common shares. The effect of the conversion of units of limited partnership interest (“OP Units”) in Acadia Realty Limited Partnership, the operating partnership of the Company (the “Operating Partnership”), is not reflected in the above table; OP Units are exchangeable into common shares on a one-for-one basis. The income allocable to such OP units is allocated on the same basis and reflected as noncontrolling interests in the consolidated financial statements. As such, the assumed conversion of these OP Units would have no net impact on the determination of diluted earnings per share.

 

 

 

 

 

(3)

 

The Company considers funds from operations (“FFO”) as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) and net property operating income (“NOI”) to be appropriate supplemental disclosures of operating performance for an equity REIT due to their widespread acceptance and use within the REIT and analyst communities. In addition, the Company believes that given the atypical nature of certain unusual items (as further described below), “FFO Before Special Items” is also an appropriate supplemental disclosure of operating performance. FFO, FFO Before Special Items and NOI are presented to assist investors in analyzing the performance of the Company. The Company believes they are helpful as they exclude various items included in net income (loss) that are not indicative of operating performance, such as (i) gains (losses) from sales of real estate properties; (ii) depreciation and amortization and (iii) impairment of depreciable real estate properties. In addition, NOI excludes interest expense and FFO Before Special Items excludes certain unusual items (as further described below). The Company’s method of calculating FFO, FFO Before Special Items and NOI may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. Neither FFO nor FFO Before Special Items represent cash generated from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), or are indicative of cash available to fund all cash needs, including distributions. Such measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) for the purpose of evaluating the Company’s performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

a.

 

Consistent with the NAREIT definition, the Company defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i.

gains (losses) from sales of real estate properties;

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ii.

depreciation and amortization;

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

iii.

impairment of real estate properties;

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

iv.

gains and losses from change in control; and

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

v.

after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

b.

 

Also consistent with NAREIT’s definition of FFO, the Company has elected to include: the impact of the unrealized holding gains (losses) incidental to its main business, including those related to its RCP investments such as Albertsons in FFO.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

c.

 

FFO Before Special Items begins with the NAREIT definition of FFO and adjusts FFO (or as an adjustment to the numerator within its earnings per share calculations) to take into account FFO without regard to certain unusual items including:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i.

charges, income and gains that management believes are not comparable and indicative of the results of the Company’s operating real estate portfolio;

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ii.

the impact of the unrealized holding gains (losses) incidental to its main business, including those related to its Retailer Controlled Property Venture ("RCP") investments such as Albertsons; and

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

iii.

any realized income or gains from the Company’s investment in Albertsons.

 

 

 

 

 

(4)

 

The Company defines Special Items to include (i) unrealized holding losses or gains (net of noncontrolling interest share) on investments and (ii) other costs that do not occur in the ordinary course of our underwriting and investing business.

     

(5)

 

The pro-rata share of NOI is based upon the Operating Partnership’s stated ownership percentages in each venture or Investment Management’s operating agreement and does not include the Operating Partnership's share of NOI from unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures within Investment Management.

 

(6)

Results for the year ended December 31, 2023 included a non-recurring gain of $7.8 million from the termination of the Bed Bath and Beyond ("BBBY") below-market lease at 555 9th Street in San Francisco.
