General Growth Properties, Inc. Releases Updated Financial Results Reflecting Changes Due to the FASB Deferral of SFAS #150 CHICAGO, Oct. 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- General Growth Properties, Inc. today released updated financial results due to the Financial Accounting Standard Board's (FASB) October 29, 2003 announcement to indefinitely defer certain provisions of SFAS #150 - "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity." In its earnings press release of October 27, 2003, General Growth had taken into account the subsequently-deferred provisions of SFAS #150 as a charge to third quarter earnings per share (EPS) of approximately $12 million. Reflecting the revised accounting treatment, EPS in third quarter 2003 increased 22.5% to $.87 versus $.71 for the comparable period in 2002. There was no change in the company's reported fully diluted Funds from Operations (FFO) per share information as substantially all of the amounts originally recorded due to the deferred provisions of SFAS 150 were reflected as the cumulative effect of an accounting change. Established NAREIT guidelines for the computation of FFO provide that the cumulative effect of an accounting change is excluded from the calculation of FFO for any reporting period. The accompanying financial results are an update to the press release of October 27, 2003 and reflect EPS treatment according to the recent FASB announcement. General Growth Properties is the country's second largest shopping center owner, developer and manager of regional shopping malls. General Growth currently has ownership interest in, or management responsibility for, a portfolio of 164 regional shopping malls in 39 states. The company portfolio totals approximately 143 million square feet of retail space and includes over 16,000 retailers nationwide. A publicly traded REIT, General Growth Properties is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol GGP.
