Other Events, Financial Statements and Exhibits
Equity Residential (the "Company") is re-issuing in an updated format its historical financial statements to satisfy SEC requirements as they relate to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.
In compliance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144, the results of operations of the Company's consolidated properties that were sold during the first nine months of 2008 were reported as a component of discontinued operations for each period presented (including the comparable period of the prior year) in the Company's third quarter 2008 quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on November 6, 2008. Under SEC requirements, the same reclassification as discontinued operations is required for previously issued annual financial statements for each of the three years shown in the Company's most recent annual report on Form 10-K, if those financial statements are incorporated by reference in subsequent filings with the SEC made under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, even though those financial statements relate to periods prior to the sale date.
The aforementioned reclassification has no effect on the Company's previously reported net income, net income available to Common Shares, funds from operations ("FFO") or FFO available to Common Shares and OP Units.
This report on Form 8-K updates Items 6, 7, 8 and 15 (Exhibit 12 only) of the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 to reclassify those properties sold during the first nine months of 2008 as a component of discontinued operations for each period presented in the annual report. Exhibit 12 also reflects certain interim information for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. All other items of the Company's Form 10-K remain unchanged. No attempt has been made to update matters in the Form 10-K except to the extent expressly provided above.
