BETHESDA, Md., Nov. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Saul Centers, Inc. (NYSE: BFS), an equity real estate investment trust ("REIT"), announced operating results for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 ("2024 Quarter"). Total revenue for the 2024 Quarter increased to $67.3 million from $63.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 ("2023 Quarter"). Net income increased to $19.6 million for the 2024 Quarter from $16.7 million for the 2023 Quarter primarily due to (a) higher base rent of $2.2 million, (b) higher lease termination fees of $0.6 million, (c) higher expense recoveries, net of expenses, of $0.2 million and (d) higher percentage rent of $0.1 million, partially offset by (e) higher general and administrative costs of $0.5 million. Net income available to common stockholders increased to $11.7 million, or $0.48 per basic and diluted share, for the 2024 Quarter from $10.0 million, or $0.42 per basic and diluted share, for the 2023 Quarter.
Same property revenue increased $3.5 million, or 5.5%, and same property operating income increased $3.2 million, or 6.8%, for the 2024 Quarter compared to the 2023 Quarter. The $3.5 million increase in same property revenue for the 2024 Quarter compared to the 2023 Quarter was primarily due to (a) higher base rent of $2.2 million, (b) higher expense recoveries of $0.6 million and (c) higher lease termination fees of $0.6 million. Shopping Center same property operating income for the 2024 Quarter totaled $36.4 million, an increase of $2.3 million compared to the 2023 Quarter. Shopping Center same property operating income increased primarily due to (a) higher base rent of $1.1 million, (b) higher lease termination fees of $0.5 million and (c) higher expense recoveries, net of expenses, of $0.4 million. Mixed-Use same property operating income totaled $13.2 million, an increase of $0.9 million compared to the 2023 Quarter. Mixed-Use same property operating income increased primarily due to (a) higher base rent of $1.1 million partially offset by (b) lower parking income, net of expenses, of $0.3 million. No properties were excluded from same property results. Reconciliations of (a) total revenue to same property revenue and (b) net income to same property operating income are attached to this press release.
Same property revenue and same property operating income are non-GAAP financial measures of performance and improve the comparability of these measures by excluding the results of properties that were not in operation for the entirety of the comparable reporting periods. We define same property revenue as total revenue minus the revenue of properties not in operation for the entirety of the comparable reporting periods. We define same property operating income as net income plus (a) interest expense, net and amortization of deferred debt costs, (b) depreciation and amortization of deferred leasing costs, (c) general and administrative expenses, (d) change in fair value of derivatives and (e) loss on early extinguishment of debt minus (f) gains on property dispositions and (g) the operating income of properties that were not in operation for the entirety of the comparable periods.
Funds from operations ("FFO") available to common stockholders and noncontrolling interests (after deducting preferred stock dividends) increased to $28.9 million, or $0.84 and $0.83 per basic and diluted share, respectively, in the 2024 Quarter compared to $26.0 million, or $0.78 and $0.76 per basic and diluted share, respectively, in the 2023 Quarter. FFO is a non-GAAP supplemental earnings measure that the Company considers meaningful in measuring its operating performance. A reconciliation of net income to FFO is attached to this press release. The increase in FFO available to common stockholders and noncontrolling interests was primarily the result of (a) higher base rent of $2.2 million, (b) higher lease termination fees of $0.6 million, (c) higher expense recoveries, net of expenses, of $0.2 million and (d) higher percentage rent of $0.1 million, partially offset by (e) higher general and administrative costs of $0.5 million.
As of September 30, 2024, 95.7% of the commercial portfolio was leased compared to 94.2% as of September 30, 2023. As of September 30, 2024, the residential portfolio was 98.8% leased compared to 97.5% as of September 30, 2023.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 ("2024 Period"), total revenue increased to $200.9 million from $190.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 ("2023 Period"). Net income increased to $57.3 million for the 2024 Period from $51.6 million for the 2023 Period. The increase in net income was primarily due to (a) higher base rent of $5.0 million and (b) higher termination fees of $2.3 million, partially offset by (c) higher general and administrative costs of $1.4 million and (d) lower parking revenue, net of expenses, of $0.4 million. Net income available to common stockholders increased to $34.2 million, or $1.42 per basic and diluted share, for the 2024 Period compared to $31.1 million, or $1.29 per basic and diluted share, for the 2023 Period.
Same property revenue increased $10.4 million, or 5.5%, and same property operating income increased $7.3 million, or 5.2%, for the 2024 Period compared to the 2023 Period. Shopping Center same property operating income increased by $5.6 million to $109.1 million primarily due to (a) higher lease termination fees of $2.8 million and (b) higher base rent of $2.6 million. Mixed-Use same property operating income increased by $1.7 million to $38.6 million primarily due to (a) higher base rent of $2.4 million, partially offset by (b) lower lease termination fees of $0.5 million. No properties were excluded from same property results.
FFO available to common stockholders and noncontrolling interests, after deducting preferred stock dividends, increased to $84.9 million, or $2.46 per basic and diluted share, in the 2024 Period from $79.4 million, or $2.38 and $2.33 per basic and diluted share, respectively, in the 2023 Period. FFO available to common stockholders and noncontrolling interests increased primarily due to (a) higher base rent of $5.0 million and (b) higher lease termination fees of $2.3 million partially offset by (c) higher general and administrative costs of $1.4 million and (d) lower parking revenue, net of expenses, of $0.4 million.

(1) | The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("Nareit") developed FFO as a relative non-GAAP financial measure of performance of an equity REIT in order to recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the basis determined under GAAP. FFO is defined by NAREIT as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and excluding impairment charges on real estate assets and gains or losses from real estate dispositions. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs, which is disclosed in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the applicable periods. There are no material legal or functional restrictions on the use of FFO. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income, its most directly comparable GAAP measure, as an indicator of the Company's operating performance, or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Management considers FFO a meaningful supplemental measure of operating performance because it primarily excludes the assumption that the value of the real estate assets diminishes predictably over time (i.e. depreciation), which is contrary to what the Company believes occurs with its assets, and because industry analysts have accepted it as a performance measure. FFO may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other REITs. |
(2) | Beginning March 5, 2021, fully diluted shares and units includes 1,416,071 limited partnership units that were held in escrow related to the contribution of Twinbrook Quarter. Half of the units held in escrow were released on October 18, 2021. The remaining units held in escrow were released on October 18, 2023. |

Total same Mixed-Use property revenue | $ 20,825 | $ 19,752 | $ 60,762 | $ 58,310 | |||
(1) | Same property revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure of performance that management believes improves the comparability of reporting periods by excluding the results of properties that were not in operation for the entirety of the comparable reporting periods. Same property revenue adjusts property revenue by subtracting the revenue of properties not in operation for the entirety of the comparable reporting periods. Same property revenue is a measure of the operating performance of the Company's properties but does not measure the Company's performance as a whole. Same property revenue should not be considered as an alternative to total revenue, its most directly comparable GAAP measure, as an indicator of the Company's operating performance. Management considers same property revenue a meaningful supplemental measure of operating performance because it is not affected by the cost of the Company's funding, the impact of depreciation and amortization expenses, gains or losses from the acquisition and sale of operating real estate assets, general and administrative expenses or other gains and losses that relate to ownership of the Company's properties. Management believes the exclusion of these items from same property revenue is useful because the resulting measure captures the actual revenue generated by operating the Company's properties. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating same property revenue. Accordingly, the Company's same property revenue may not be comparable to those of other REITs. |
