-- Raises Outlook for Full-Year 2024 FFO as Adjusted --

Urban Edge Properties (NYSE:UE) (the "Company") today announced its results for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 and updated its outlook for full-year 2024.

"Our third quarter results reflect continued momentum in executing our strategic plan," said Jeff Olson, Chairman and CEO. "We are pleased to announce the $126 million acquisition of The Village at Waugh Chapel in Anne Arundel County, Maryland and the sale of a single-tenant Home Depot in Union, New Jersey for $71 million. Over the last year, we have acquired $552 million of high-quality retail assets in our core markets at a 7% capitalization rate and have sold over $425 million of non-core and single-tenant assets at a 5% capitalization rate. Based on our strong results to date coupled with our recent investment activity, we increased our 2024 FFO as Adjusted guidance by $0.03 per share at the midpoint, reflecting 7% growth for the year, and we continue to believe that we will reach the high end of our 2025 FFO target outlined at our April 2023 Investor Day."

Net income and FFO for the three months ended September 30, 2024 decreased as compared to the prior year period driven by the $26.7 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, gain on extinguishment of debt, net of tax, recognized in August 2023 related to the Shops at Caguas financing. FFO as Adjusted for the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased by $0.03, or 9%, per diluted share as compared to the prior year period and benefited from rent commencements on new leases and growth from acquisitions.

Same-Property Operating Results Compared to the Prior Year Period⁽³⁾

	3Q24		YTD 2024
Same-property Net Operating Income ("NOI") growth	4.8	%	3.6	%
Same-property NOI growth, including properties in redevelopment	5.1	%	4.4	%

Increases in same-property NOI metrics for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 were primarily driven by rent commencements on new leases from our signed but not open pipeline.

Operating Results⁽¹⁾

Achieved same-property portfolio leased occupancy of 96.3%, an increase of 200 basis points compared to September 30, 2023, and a decrease of 10 basis points compared to June 30, 2024.
Reported consolidated portfolio leased occupancy of 96.3%, an increase of 190 basis points compared to September 30, 2023, and a decrease of 10 basis points compared to June 30, 2024.
Increased retail shop leased occupancy to 90.4%, up 500 basis points compared to September 30, 2023, and 60 basis points compared to June 30, 2024.
Executed 45 new leases, renewals and options totaling 683,000 sf during the quarter. New leases totaled 126,000 sf, of which 117,000 sf was on a same-space basis and generated an average cash spread of 14.8%. New leases, renewals and options totaled 674,000 sf on a same-space basis and generated an average cash spread of 9.0%.

Acquisition and Disposition Activity

On October 29, 2024, the Company closed on the acquisition of The Village at Waugh Chapel for a gross purchase price of $126 million, representing a capitalization rate of 6.6%. The grocery-anchored center is located in Gambrills, MD, a highly educated and affluent trade area that sits within 20 miles of Washington, D.C., Baltimore and Annapolis. The shopping center aggregates 382,000 sf with national tenants including Safeway, Marshalls, HomeGoods, and T.J. Maxx, as well as several high-quality outparcels highlighted by Chick-fil-A, LA Fitness and Chipotle. Shop spaces account for approximately 150,000 sf of leasable area and offer strong growth opportunities through in-place contractual rent increases and the re-leasing of below-market spaces.

The acquisition was partially funded through the assumption of a $60 million interest-only mortgage with a below-market rate of 3.76% and a remaining term of approximately 7 years. The Company expects to earn a first-year levered return of approximately 9%. This transaction increases the Company's presence in the Washington, D.C. to Boston corridor and is expected to provide immediate accretion to its portfolio.

On October 29, 2024, the Company sold a single-tenant, Home Depot anchored property located in Union, NJ for a price of $71 million, reflecting a 5.4% capitalization rate. The outstanding $44.6 million mortgage encumbering the property was assumed by the buyer at closing. This transaction was structured as part of a Section 1031 exchange with the acquisition of The Village at Waugh Chapel, allowing for the deferral of capital gains resulting from the sale.

Financing Activity

On August 29, 2024, the Company obtained a 5-year, $31 million mortgage loan secured by its property Greenbrook Commons, located in Watchung, NJ. The loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 6.03%.

On September 13, 2024, the Company obtained a 10-year, $30 million mortgage loan secured by its property Briarcliff Commons, located in Morris Plains, NJ. The loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 5.47%.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2024, the Company issued approximately 4.4 million common shares at a weighted average gross price of $19.24 per share under its at-the-market equity offering program (the "ATM Program"), generating net cash proceeds of $83.7 million used to fund acquisitions and reduce outstanding borrowings on its line of credit. The Company does not expect to issue additional equity unless significant future acquisition opportunities arise.

The Company paid off the $150 million outstanding balance on its line of credit during the quarter using proceeds generated from equity issuances under the ATM Program and proceeds received from the new mortgage loans discussed above. Subsequent to the quarter, the Company utilized its line of credit to partially finance the acquisition of The Village at Waugh Chapel, increasing the outstanding balance to $65 million.

As of September 30, 2024, the Company has limited debt maturities coming due through December 31, 2026 of $187 million in the aggregate, which represents approximately 12% of outstanding debt.

Leasing, Development and Redevelopment

The Company stabilized two redevelopment and anchor repositioning projects during the quarter with the rent commencements of Bingo Wholesale at Burnside Commons and Visiting Nurse Services at Kingswood Crossing. The two projects had estimated aggregate costs of $10.0 million.

The Company activated one project during the quarter with an estimated cost of $1.4 million and now has $159.2 million of active redevelopment projects underway, with estimated remaining costs to complete of $95.2 million. The active redevelopment projects are expected to generate an approximate 14% yield.

As of September 30, 2024, the Company had signed leases that have not yet rent commenced that are expected to generate an additional $23.8 million of future annual gross rent, representing approximately 9% of current annualized NOI.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity⁽¹⁾⁽⁴⁾

Balance sheet highlights as of September 30, 2024 include:

Total liquidity of approximately $860 million, consisting of $90 million of cash on hand and $770 million available under the Company's $800 million revolving credit agreement, including undrawn letters of credit.
Mortgages payable of $1.5 billion, with a weighted average term to maturity of 4.7 years, all of which is fixed rate or hedged.
No amounts drawn on our $800 million revolving credit agreement that matures on February 9, 2027, with two six-month extension options. Subsequent to the quarter, the Company borrowed $65 million under its line of credit to partially finance the acquisition of The Village at Waugh Chapel.
Total market capitalization of approximately $4.3 billion, comprised of 131.8 million fully-diluted common shares valued at $2.8 billion and $1.5 billion of debt.
Net debt to total market capitalization of 33%.

2024 Outlook and 2025 Targets

The Company has updated its 2024 full-year guidance ranges for net income, FFO and FFO as Adjusted, estimating net income of $0.35 to $0.38 per diluted share, FFO of $1.44 to $1.47 per diluted share, and FFO as Adjusted of $1.32 to $1.35 per diluted share, up from its previous guidance ranges of net income of $0.28 to $0.31 per diluted share, FFO of $1.42 to $1.45 per diluted share, and FFO as Adjusted of $1.29 to $1.32 per diluted share.

The Company is providing a projection of anticipated net income solely to satisfy the disclosure requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The Company's projections are based on management's current beliefs and assumptions about the Company's business, and the industry and the markets in which it operates; there are known and unknown risks and uncertainties associated with these projections. There can be no assurance that our actual results will not differ from the guidance set forth above. The Company assumes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, including its 2024 earnings guidance, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses certain non-GAAP performance measures, in addition to the primary GAAP presentations, as we believe these measures improve the understanding of the Company's operational results. We continually evaluate the usefulness, relevance, limitations, and calculation of our reported non-GAAP performance measures to determine how best to provide relevant information to the investing public, and thus such reported measures are subject to change. The Company's non-GAAP performance measures have limitations as they do not include all items of income and expense that affect operations, and accordingly, should always be considered as supplemental financial results. Additionally, the Company's computation of non-GAAP metrics may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP metrics reported by other real estate investment trusts ("REITs") or real estate companies that define these metrics differently and, as a result, it is important to understand the manner in which the Company defines and calculates each of its non-GAAP metrics. The following non-GAAP measures are commonly used by the Company and investing public to understand and evaluate our operating results and performance:

FFO: The Company believes FFO is a useful, supplemental measure of its operating performance that is a recognized metric used extensively by the real estate industry and, in particular REITs. FFO, as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("Nareit") and the Company, is net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable real estate and land when connected to the main business of a REIT, impairments on depreciable real estate or land related to a REIT's main business, earnings from consolidated partially owned entities and rental property depreciation and amortization expense. The Company believes that financial analysts, investors and shareholders are better served by the presentation of comparable period operating results generated from FFO primarily because it excludes the assumption that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably. FFO does not represent cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance, and is not indicative of cash flow as a measure of liquidity or our ability to make cash distributions.
FFO as Adjusted: The Company provides disclosure of FFO as Adjusted because it believes it is a useful supplemental measure of its core operating performance that facilitates comparability of historical financial periods. FFO as Adjusted is calculated by making certain adjustments to FFO to account for items the Company does not believe are representative of ongoing core operating results, including non-comparable revenues and expenses. The Company's method of calculating FFO as Adjusted may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.
NOI: The Company uses NOI internally to make investment and capital allocation decisions and to compare the unlevered performance of our properties to our peers. The Company believes NOI is useful to investors as a performance measure because, when compared across periods, NOI reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs and acquisition and disposition activity on an unleveraged basis, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income. The Company calculates NOI using net income as defined by GAAP reflecting only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level, adjusted for non-cash rental income and expense, impairments on depreciable real estate or land, and income or expenses that we do not believe are representative of ongoing operating results, if any. In addition, the Company uses NOI margin, calculated as NOI divided by total property revenue, which the Company believes is useful to investors for similar reasons.
Same-property NOI: The Company provides disclosure of NOI on a same-property basis, which includes the results of properties that were owned and operated for the entirety of the reporting periods being compared, which total 65 properties for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. Information provided on a same-property basis excludes properties under development, redevelopment or that involve anchor repositioning where a substantial portion of the gross leasable area ("GLA") is taken out of service and also excludes properties acquired, sold, or that are in the foreclosure process during the periods being compared. As such, same-property NOI assists in eliminating disparities in net income due to the development, redevelopment, acquisition, disposition, or foreclosure of properties during the periods presented, and thus provides a more consistent performance measure for the comparison of the operating performance of the Company's properties. While there is judgment surrounding changes in designations, a property is removed from the same-property pool when it is designated as a redevelopment property because it is undergoing significant renovation or retenanting pursuant to a formal plan that is expected to have a significant impact on its operating income. A development or redevelopment property is moved back to the same-property pool once a substantial portion of the NOI growth expected from the development or redevelopment is reflected in both the current and comparable prior year period, generally one year after at least 80% of the expected NOI from the project is realized on a cash basis. Acquisitions are moved into the same-property pool once we have owned the property for the entirety of the comparable periods and the property is not under significant development or redevelopment. The Company has also provided disclosure of NOI on a same-property basis adjusted to include redevelopment properties. Same-property NOI may include other adjustments as detailed in the Reconciliation of Net Income to NOI and same-property NOI included in the tables accompanying this press release.
EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre: EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre are supplemental, non-GAAP measures utilized by us in various financial ratios. The White Paper on EBITDAre, approved by Nareit's Board of Governors in September 2017, defines EBITDAre as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), adjusted for interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation and amortization, losses and gains on the disposition of depreciated property, impairment write-downs of depreciated property and investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, and adjustments to reflect the entity's share of EBITDAre of unconsolidated joint ventures. EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre are presented to assist investors in the evaluation of REITs, as a measure of the Company's operational performance as they exclude various items that do not relate to or are not indicative of our operating performance and because they approximate key performance measures in our debt covenants. Accordingly, the Company believes that the use of EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre, as opposed to income before income taxes, in various ratios provides meaningful performance measures related to the Company's ability to meet various coverage tests for the stated periods. Adjusted EBITDAre may include other adjustments not indicative of operating results as detailed in the Reconciliation of Net Income to EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre included in the tables accompanying this press release. The Company also presents the ratio of net debt (net of cash) to annualized Adjusted EBITDAre as of September 30, 2024, and net debt (net of cash) to total market capitalization, which it believes is useful to investors as a supplemental measure in evaluating the Company's balance sheet leverage. The presentation of EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre is consistent with EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as presented in prior periods.

The Company believes net income is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to the non-GAAP performance measures outlined above. Reconciliations of these measures to net income have been provided in the tables accompanying this press release.

Operating Metrics

The Company presents certain operating metrics related to our properties, including occupancy, leasing activity and rental rates. Operating metrics used by the Company are useful to investors in facilitating an understanding of the operational performance for our properties.

Recovery ratios represent the percentage of operating expenses recuperated through tenant reimbursements. This metric is presented on a same-property and same-property including redevelopment basis and is calculated by dividing tenant expense reimbursements (adjusted to exclude any ancillary income) by the sum of real estate taxes and property operating expenses.

Occupancy metrics represent the percentage of occupied gross leasable area based on executed leases (including properties in development and redevelopment) and include leases signed, but for which rent has not yet commenced. Same-property portfolio leased occupancy includes properties that have been owned and operated for the entirety of the reporting periods being compared, which total 65 properties for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. Occupancy metrics presented for the Company's same-property portfolio exclude properties under development, redevelopment or that involve anchor repositioning where a substantial portion of the gross leasable area is taken out of service and also excludes properties acquired within the past 12 months or properties sold, and properties that are in the foreclosure process during the periods being compared.

Executed new leases, renewals and exercised options are presented on a same-space basis. Same-space leases represent those leases signed on spaces for which there was a previous lease.

The Company occasionally provides disclosures by tenant categories which include anchors, shops and industrial/self-storage. Anchors and shops are further broken down by local, regional and national tenants. We define anchor tenants as those who have a leased area of >10,000 sf. Local tenants are defined as those with less than five locations. Regional tenants are those with five or more locations in a single region. National tenants are defined as those with five or more locations and operate in two or more regions.

⁽¹⁾	Weighted average diluted shares used to calculate FFO per share and FFO as Adjusted per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, are higher than the GAAP weighted average diluted shares as a result of the dilutive impact of LTIP and OP units which may be redeemed for our common shares.
⁽²⁾	During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized an impairment charge reducing the carrying value of Kingswood Center, an office and retail property located in Brooklyn, NY.
⁽³⁾	In April 2023, the Company notified the lender of its mortgage secured by Kingswood Center that the cash flows generated by the property are insufficient to cover the debt service and that the Company is unwilling to fund future shortfalls. As such, the Company defaulted on the loan and adjusted for the default interest incurred for the second quarter of 2023. In the third quarter of 2023, the Company determined it was appropriate to exclude the operating results of Kingswood Center from FFO as Adjusted as the property was in the foreclosure process. In June of 2024, the foreclosure process was completed and the lender took possession of the property.
⁽⁴⁾	Includes the acceleration and write-off of lease intangibles related to tenant terminations and bankruptcies, and write-offs and reinstatements of receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents for tenants moved to and from the cash basis of accounting.
⁽⁵⁾	The gain on extinguishment of debt for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 relates to the mortgage debt forgiven in the foreclosure settlement of Kingswood Center.
