  • Subsequent to the Second Quarter:
    • Renewed one lease for five years totaling 1.14 MW and 5,300 raised square feet.

Hossein Fateh, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “DFT continues to focus on the plan to lease our remaining wholesale data center capacity and to develop new capacity in existing locations.  We are optimistic in our ability to lease our available space based on expected data center demand.”

Second Quarter 2013 Results

For the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the company reported earnings of $0.18 per share compared to $0.11 per share for the second quarter of 2012, an increase of 64%.  Revenues increased 11%, or $8.9 million, to $91.6 million for the second quarter of 2013 over the second quarter of 2012.  The increase in revenues is primarily due to new leases commencing.

FFO for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 was $0.47 per share compared to $0.37 per share for the second quarter of 2012.  The increase of $0.10 per share from the prior year quarter is due to higher operating income excluding depreciation.

First Half 2013 Results

For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the company reported earnings of $0.30 per share compared to $0.19 per share for the first half of 2012, an increase of 58%.  Revenues increased 11%, or $18.3 million, to $179.3 million for the first six months of 2013 over the year ago period.  The increase in revenues is primarily due to new leases commencing.

FFO for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $0.87 per share, compared to $0.72 per share for the first half of 2012.  The increase of $0.15 per share from the year ago period is primarily due to:

  • A positive impact of $0.18 per share from higher operating income excluding depreciation.
  • A negative impact of $0.02 per share due to the one-time write-off of deferred financing costs related to a secured loan payoff in the first quarter of 2013.
  • A negative impact of $0.01 per share from higher interest expense primarily due to lower capitalized interest.

Portfolio Update

During the second quarter, the company signed one lease at CH1 with a lease term of 5.1 years totaling 1.73 MW and 10,151 raised square feet.  A portion of the lease commenced in the second quarter and the other portion is a replacement for the 0.43 MW expiring on December 31, 2013 and is expected to commence in the first quarter of 2014.

Year to Date, the company:

  • Signed two leases with a weighted average lease term of 5.2 years totaling 4.01 MW and 21,151 raised square feet that are expected to generate approximately $3.9 million of annualized GAAP base rent revenue.
  • Commenced nine leases totaling 20.69 MW and 110,716 raised square feet.
  • Renewed one lease at ACC4 for five years totaling 1.14 MW and 5,300 raised square feet.

Development Update

In May 2013, the company executed an agreement with its general contractor to build the entire shell and portions of the underground conduit at ACC7 (41.60 MW of critical load) and to fully develop the first phase of ACC7 (11.89 MW of critical load).  The total cost of the entire ACC7 data center is expected to range from $7.0 million per MW to $7.9 million per MW, excluding capitalized interest. ACC7 will be the first data center built using the company’s new design.  Expected Power Usage Efficiency (“PUE”) is 1.2 which will result in reduced energy costs for customers and the new design is also expected to lower operating costs.  The company can build in modular units as small as 5.9 MW of critical load, allowing delivery on a just-in-time basis, reducing the risk of speculative development.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

The company announced in November 2012 a twelve-month common stock repurchase program of up to $80 million.  In the second quarter of 2013, the company did not repurchase any shares.  Under this program the company has repurchased $37.8 million or 1,632,673 shares of common stock at an average price of $23.12 per share.

On June 12, 2013, the company exercised the accordion on its revolving credit facility increasing the facility from $225 million to $400 million.  A new accordion was put into place to provide the company with the option to increase the total commitment under the facility to $600 million, if one or more lenders commit to being a lender for the additional amount and certain other customary conditions are met.

As of June 30, 2013, the company had $14 million of cash available on its balance sheet and $340 million of available capacity under its revolving credit facility.

Common Dividend

The company’s Board of Directors increased the quarterly common dividend in the second quarter of 2013 by 25% to $0.25 per share, an annualized rate of $1.00 per share.

Third Quarter and Full Year 2013 Guidance

The company has established an FFO guidance range of $0.47 to $0.49 per share for the third quarter of 2013.

The company’s 2013 FFO guidance range remains unchanged at $1.82 to $1.92 per share.  The 2013 lower end of the guidance range still assumes no additional leases will be executed this year.

(1) Funds from operations, or FFO, is used by industry analysts and investors as a supplemental operating performance measure for REITs. The Company calculates FFO in accordance with the definition that was adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, represents net income determined in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary items as defined under GAAP, impairment charges on depreciable real estate assets and gains or losses from sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets, plus specified non-cash items, such as real estate asset depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The Company also presents FFO attributable to common shares and OP units, which is FFO excluding preferred stock dividends. FFO attributable to common shares and OP units per share is calculated on a basis consistent with net income attributable to common shares and OP units and reflects adjustments to net income for preferred stock dividends.

The Company 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 period over period, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating expenses. The Company also believes that, as a widely recognized measure of the performance of equity REITs, FFO may be used by investors as a basis to compare the Company’s operating performance with that of other REITs. However, because FFO excludes real estate related depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of the Company’s properties that result from use or market conditions nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of the Company’s properties, all of which have real economic effects and could materially impact the Company’s results from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of the Company’s performance is limited.

While FFO is a relevant and widely used measure of operating performance of equity REITs, other equity REITs may use different methodologies for calculating FFO and, accordingly, FFO as disclosed by such other REITs may not be comparable to the Company’s FFO. Therefore, the Company believes that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of its historical operating results, FFO should be examined in conjunction with net income as presented in the consolidated statements of operations. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income or to cash flow from operating activities (each as computed in accordance with GAAP) or as an indicator of the Company’s liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to meet the Company’s cash needs, including its ability to pay dividends or make distributions.

The Company also presents FFO with supplemental adjustments to arrive at Adjusted FFO (“AFFO”). AFFO is FFO attributable to common shares and OP units excluding straight-line revenue, compensation paid with Company common shares, gain or loss on derivative instruments, acquisition of service agreements, below market lease amortization net of above market lease amortization, early extinguishment of debt costs, non real estate depreciation and amortization, amortization of deferred financing costs, improvements to real estate and capitalized leasing commissions. AFFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and therefore should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow provided by operations as a measure of liquidity and is not necessarily indicative of funds available to fund the Company’s cash needs including the Company’s ability to pay dividends. In addition, AFFO may not be comparable to similarly titled measurements employed by other companies. The Company’s management uses AFFO in management reports to provide a measure of REIT operating performance that can be compared to other companies using AFFO.
