Brandywine Realty Trust Reports Second Quarter 2008 Results
Thursday July 31, 5:30 am ET

RADNOR, PA--(MARKET WIRE)--Jul 31, 2008 -- Brandywine Realty Trust (BDN - News), a real estate investment trust focused on the ownership, management and development of Class A, suburban and urban office properties in the mid-Atlantic region and other selected markets throughout the United States, announced today its financial and operating results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2008. The highlights are as follows:

Financial Highlights - Second Quarter

 
--  Net income allocated to common shares totaled $7.4 million or $0.08
    per diluted share in the second quarter of 2008 compared to a loss of $0.8
    million or ($0.01) per diluted share in the second quarter of 2007.  Net
    income in the second quarter of 2008 included a $13.4 million gain on the
    disposition of discontinued real estate offset by a previously disclosed,
    $6.85 million impairment charge related to a portfolio of five held-for-
    sale properties, while net income in the second quarter of 2007 included a
    $0.9 million loss on the disposition of discontinued real estate.

--  Funds from operations (FFO) in the second quarter of 2008 totaled
    $52.2 million ($59.0 million excluding the $6.85 million impairment charge)
    or $0.57 per diluted share ($0.65 per diluted share excluding the
    impairment charge), compared to $59.0 million or $0.65 per diluted share in
    the second quarter of 2007.  FFO in the second quarter of 2008 included a
    $1.0 million gain ($0.01 per diluted share) attributable to the early
    extinguishment of a portion of an unsecured debt obligation.

--  In the second quarter of 2008, we incurred $9.3 million of revenue
    maintaining capital expenditures which along with other adjustments to FFO,
    resulted in $43.4 million of cash available for distribution (CAD) or $0.48
    per diluted share compared to $33.5 million of CAD or $0.37 per diluted
    share in the second quarter of 2007 when we incurred $17.3 million of
    revenue maintaining capital expenditures.  Our second quarter 2008 CAD
    payout ratio ($0.44 common share dividend / $0.48 CAD) was 91.7%.

Financial Highlights - Six Months

 
--  Net income allocated to common shares totaled $20.1 million or $0.23
    per diluted share in the first six months of 2008 compared to $16.4 million
    or $0.19 per diluted share in the first six months of 2007.  Net income in
    the first six months of 2008 included $21.4 million of gains on the
    disposition of discontinued real estate offset by the $6.85 million
    impairment charge, while net income in the first six months of 2007
    included $25.2 million of gains on the disposition of discontinued real
    estate.

--  FFO for the first six months of 2008 totaled $114.7 million ($121.5
    million excluding the $6.85 million impairment charge) or $1.26 per diluted
    share ($1.34 per diluted share excluding the impairment charge), compared
    to $117.5 million or $1.27 per diluted share for the first six months of
    2007.  FFO in the first half of 2008 included a $4.3 million gain ($0.05
    per diluted share) attributable to the early extinguishment of a portion of
    an unsecured debt obligation.

--  For the first six months of 2008, CAD totaled $90.7 million or $1.00
    per diluted share versus $65.4 million or $0.71 per diluted share for the
    first six months of 2007.  Our CAD payout ratio (on $0.88 of aggregate
    common share dividends) for the first six months of 2008 was 88.0%.

Portfolio Highlights

 
--  At June 30, 2008, our core portfolio was 92.9% occupied and 94.2%
    leased (reflecting leases commencing after June 30, 2008).  We owned 254
    properties at June 30, 2008, encompassing 237 core portfolio properties
    aggregating 23.7 million square feet, 12 development/redevelopment
    properties aggregating 3.2 million square feet and 5 properties aggregating
    1.7 million square feet designated as held for sale.

--  During the second quarter of 2008, our net operating income (NOI)
    declined 0.9% on a GAAP basis and increased 0.9% on a cash basis for our
    225 same store properties which were 92.9% and 93.8% occupied on June 30,
    2008 and June 30, 2007, respectively.  For the first six months of 2008,
    NOI for our same store portfolio increased 0.7% on a GAAP basis and
    increased 3.4% on a cash basis.

--  Our overall NOI margin on a GAAP basis for the second quarter of 2008
    was 61.5% versus 61.2% for the second quarter of 2007.

--  For the second quarter of 2008, our core portfolio retention rate was
    62.5% with overall negative net absorption of 115,404 square feet.  During
    the second quarter of 2008, we achieved a 5.9% increase on our renewal
    rental rates and a 5.0% increase on our new lease rental rates, both on a
    GAAP basis.

Investment Highlights

 
--  We acquired no properties in the second quarter of 2008.

--  During the second quarter of 2008, we sold 100 Brandywine Boulevard in
    Newtown, Pennsylvania for $28.0 million with a gain on sale of $13.4
    million, bringing year-to-date sales to $56.2 million with aggregate gains
    of $21.4 million.  We also announced the pending sale of a five-property
    portfolio in Oakland, California for an aggregate gross price of $412.5
    million, which we expect to close in the third quarter of 2008.

--  At June 30, 2008, we were actively proceeding on six ground-up
    developments and six redevelopments with total estimated costs of $637.3
    million of which $376.0 million remained to be funded.  These amounts
    include $365.0 million of costs for the combined 30th Street Post Office
    and garage development in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania of which $296.6
    million remained to be funded at June 30, 2008, primarily in 2009 and 2010.
    As of July 25, 2008, our six ground-up developments and six redevelopments
    were collectively 74.6% leased, reflecting a recently completed 195,000
    square foot lease at our South Lake at Dulles Corner project and other
    leasing activity.

Capital Markets Highlights

 
--  During the second quarter of 2008, we repurchased $7.0 million of our
    $345.0 million 3.875% Guaranteed Exchangeable Notes at an average price of
    85.9% which resulted in a $1.0 million gain for the early extinguishment of
    debt.  We funded this repurchase from a combination of proceeds from asset
    sales, cash flow from operations and borrowings under our unsecured
    revolving credit facilities.  We now have $313.5 million of this note issue
    outstanding, reflecting cumulative repurchase activity.

--  During the second quarter of 2008, we exercised the accordion feature
    on our $150.0 million unsecured term loan and funded an additional $33.0
    million, bringing its total outstanding balance to $183.0 million.  All
    amounts outstanding under the term loan bear interest at a periodic rate of
    LIBOR plus 80 basis points.  The net proceeds of the term loan increase
    were used to reduce indebtedness under our unsecured revolving credit
    facilities.

--  At June 30, 2008, our net debt to gross assets measured 52.4% compared
    to 53.6% at December 31, 2007, marking three consecutive quarters during
    which we have reduced this leverage metric.  At June 30, 2008, we had
    $442.5 million available for use and drawdown under our various credit
    facilities.

--  We achieved a 2.7 times interest coverage ratio for the quarter ended
    June 30, 2008 versus 2.5 for the quarter ended June 30, 2007.

"The second quarter of 2008 reflects our continued focus on core portfolio performance, ongoing lease-up of our development projects and prudent balance sheet management," stated Gerard H. Sweeney, President and Chief Executive Officer of Brandywine Realty Trust. "These activities, punctuated by the pending sale of a portfolio of five Oakland assets, the substantial lease-up of our Metro DC development and efficient use of our capital to support our leasing program bolster our ability to successfully navigate the challenging economic climate."

Distributions

On June 18, 2008, our Board of Trustees declared a quarterly dividend distribution of $0.44 per common share that was paid on July 18, 2008 to shareholders of record as of July 3, 2008. Our Board also declared quarterly dividend distributions of $0.46875 per 7.50% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share and $0.460938 per 7.375% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Share that were paid on July 15, 2008 to holders of record as of June 30, 2008 of the Series C and Series D Preferred Shares, respectively.

Share Repurchase Program

We are authorized to purchase an additional 539,200 common shares and may make repurchases from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions and compliance with legal requirements. The share repurchase program does not contain any time limitation and does not obligate us to repurchase any shares. We did not purchase any shares in the second quarter of 2008 and may discontinue the program at any time.

2008 Earnings and FFO Guidance

Based on current plans and assumptions including the expected closing of our five-property Oakland sale on or about August 31, 2008 and subject to the risks and uncertainties more fully described in Brandywine's reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, we are maintaining our previously announced guidance for full year 2008 FFO per diluted share to be in a range of $2.40 to $2.50 reflecting the add-back of the $6.85 million (approximately $0.08 per diluted share) impairment charge. Going forward, we will report FFO both with and without the impairment charge. This guidance is provided for informational purposes and is subject to change. The following is a reconciliation of the calculation of FFO per diluted share (with and without the impairment charge) and earnings per diluted share:

 
  Guidance for 2008                                     Range or Value
  -----------------                                  --------------------

  Earnings per diluted share allocated to common
   shareholders                                      $ 0.14   to   $ 0.24
  Less: gains on the sale of real estate              (0.24)        (0.24)
  Plus: real estate depreciation and amortization      2.42          2.42
                                                     ------        ------

  FFO per diluted share                              $ 2.32   to   $ 2.42

  Plus: impairment charge                              0.08          0.08
                                                     ------        ------

  Adjusted FFO per diluted share                     $ 2.40   to   $ 2.50
                                                     ======        ======

For guidance purposes, we have not considered any future gains, losses or impairments from the sale of real estate not previously disclosed. Our 2008 FFO guidance does not include any income from the sale of undepreciated real estate, in accordance with our current practice.

Forward-Looking Statements

Estimates of future earnings per share and FFO per share and certain other statements in this release constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our and our affiliates' actual results, performance, achievements or transactions to be materially different from any future results, performance, achievements or transactions expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks, uncertainties and other factors relate to, among others: our ability to lease vacant space and to renew or relet space under expiring leases at expected levels; competition with other real estate companies for tenants; the potential loss or bankruptcy of major tenants; interest rate levels; the availability of debt, equity or other financing; competition for real estate acquisitions; risks of acquisitions, dispositions and developments, including the cost of construction delays and cost overruns; unanticipated operating and capital costs; our ability to obtain adequate insurance, including coverage for terrorist acts; dependence upon certain geographic markets; and general and local economic and real estate conditions, including the extent and duration of adverse changes that affect the industries in which our tenants operate. Additional information on factors which could impact us and the forward-looking statements contained herein are included in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Form 10-K and Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2007. We assume no obligation to update or supplement forward-looking statements that become untrue because of subsequent events except as required by law.

Accounting Disclosure

During the quarter ended June 30, 2008, we identified certain instances dating back to 1998 in which we canceled, upon the vesting of restricted shares, a portion of such shares in settlement of tax withholdings in excess of statutory rates. As a result, we have changed the classification of the affected restricted share grants from equity to liability awards with corresponding immaterial changes in individual period net income amounts. While no single period impact is material, the error requires correction. We will make corresponding revisions as appropriate to our prior period financial statements in our supplemental information package and in future SEC filings. No Form 8-K or prior period restatement filings are required.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measures

We compute our financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Although FFO, NOI and CAD are non-GAAP financial measures, we believe that FFO, NOI and CAD calculations are helpful to shareholders and potential investors and are widely recognized measures of real estate investment trust performance. At the end of this press release, we have provided a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Funds from Operations (FFO)

We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT), which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not compute FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or that interpret the NAREIT definition differently than us. NAREIT defines FFO as net income (loss) before minority interest of unit holders (preferred and common) and excluding gains (losses) on sales of property and extraordinary items (computed in accordance with GAAP); plus real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs), and after similar adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures. Net income, the GAAP measure that we believe to be most directly comparable to FFO, includes depreciation and amortization expenses, gains or losses on property sales, extraordinary items and minority interest. To facilitate a clear understanding of our historical operating results, FFO should be examined in conjunction with net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as presented in the financial statements included elsewhere in this release. FFO does not represent cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) and should not be considered to be an alternative to net income (loss) (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of our financial performance or to be an alternative to cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions to shareholders.

For information purposes, we also provide FFO adjusted for impairment charges. Although our calculation of FFO as adjusted differs from NAREIT's definition of FFO and may not be comparable to that of other REITs and real estate companies, we believe it provides a meaningful supplemental measure of our operating performance because we believe that by excluding impairment charges, shareholders and potential investors are presented with an indicator of our operating performance that more closely achieves the objectives of the real estate industry in presenting FFO.

Net Operating Income (NOI)

NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure equal to net income available to common shareholders, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, plus corporate general and administrative expense, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, minority interest in the Operating Partnership and losses from early extinguishment of debt, less interest income, development and management income, gains from property dispositions, gains on sale from discontinued operations, gains on early extinguishment of debt, income from discontinued operations, income from unconsolidated joint ventures and minority interest in property partnerships. In some cases, we also present NOI on a cash basis, which is NOI after eliminating the effect of straight-lining of rent and deferred market intangible amortization. NOI presented by us may not be comparable to NOI reported by other REITs that define NOI differently. NOI should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance, or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity or ability to make cash distributions to shareholders.

Cash Available for Distribution (CAD)

CAD is a non-GAAP financial measure that is not intended as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as determined under GAAP. CAD is presented solely as a supplemental disclosure with respect to liquidity because we believe it provides useful information regarding our ability to fund our distributions. Because other companies do not necessarily calculate CAD the same way as we do, our presentation of CAD may not be comparable to similarly titled measures provided by other companies.

Revenue Maintaining Capital Expenditures

Revenue maintaining capital expenditures, a non-GAAP financial measure, are a component of the Company's CAD calculation and represent the portion of capital expenditures required to maintain the Company's current level of funds available for distribution. Revenue maintaining capital expenditures include current tenant improvement and allowance expenditures for all tenant spaces that have been owned for at least one year, and that were not vacant during the twelve-month period prior to the date that the tenant improvement or allowance expenditure was approved. Revenue maintaining capital expenditures also include other expenditures intended to maintain our current revenue base. Accordingly, the Company excludes capital expenditures related to development and redevelopment projects, as well as certain projects at our core properties that are intended to attract prospective tenants in order to increase revenues and/or occupancy rates.

Second Quarter Earnings Call and Supplemental Information Package

We will host a conference call on Thursday, July 31, 2008 at 11:00 a.m. EDT. The conference call can be accessed by calling 1-800-683-1525 and referencing conference ID #52019041.
