Rouse Properties Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2015 Results

New York, NY, February 29, 2016 - Rouse Properties, Inc. (the "Company" or "Rouse") (NYSE: RSE), today announced consolidated results for the three months and twelve months ended December 31, 2015.
The Company previously announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by an affiliate of Brookfield Asset Management Inc. (NYSE: BAM, TSX: BAM.A, Euronext: BAMA) (“Brookfield”) for $18.25 per share in an all-cash transaction, a portion of which may be paid out as a special dividend.   Under the terms of the agreement, Brookfield will acquire all of the outstanding shares of Rouse’s common stock, other than those shares currently held by Brookfield Property Partners L.P. (NYSE: BPY, TSX: BPY.UN) and its affiliates, in a transaction valued at approximately $2.8 billion, including Rouse’s indebtedness. The agreement prohibits the payment of any further dividends by Rouse, other than as part of the $18.25 per share consideration payable in the transaction.  The purchase price represents a premium of approximately 35% over Rouse’s closing stock price on January 15, 2016, the last trading day prior to Brookfield’s announcement of a proposal to acquire Rouse. The Special Committee of the Board of Directors of Rouse unanimously approved the agreement. Completion of the transaction is expected to occur by the third quarter of 2016, and is contingent upon customary closing conditions, including the approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Rouse’s common stock not currently held by Brookfield Property Partners and its affiliates. The transaction is not subject to a financing contingency.

Operational and Financial Highlights for Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2015
Total initial rental rates for new and renewal leases on a same suite basis rose 14.9% for the quarter ended December 31, 2015 and 12.3% for the full year.
For the Operating Portfolio(1), tenant sales were $350 per square foot on a trailing twelve month basis. On a comparable basis, trailing twelve month Operating Portfolio tenant sales increased 7.4%.

Financial Results for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2015
Core FFO for the three months ended December 31, 2015 was $0.58 per diluted share, as compared to $0.46 per diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2014.

Financial Results for the Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2015
Core FFO for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $104.0 million, or $1.79 per diluted share, compared to $94.5 million, or $1.64 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2014. Core FFO per share increased 9.1% in 2015 due to an increase in Same Property Core NOI, as well as, an increase from the properties that were acquired during the year.

Core NOI was $197.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to $189.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. On a Same Property basis, excluding lease termination income of approximately $1.8 million, Same Property Core NOI increased by 2.6% to $151.8 million from $148.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to December 31, 2014.

Net income allocable to common shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $40.7 million or $0.70 per basic and diluted share, compared to a net loss allocable to common shareholders of $(51.8) million, or $(0.90) per basic and diluted share in the prior year period. The change in net income (loss) was primarily due to a gain on extinguishment of debt and a gain on dispositions of $61.4 million, as well as an increase in income from the Same Property portfolio. In addition, a reduction in interest expense and provision for impairment during 2015 also contributed to the change in net income (loss) allocable to common shareholders.
Financings
During the three months ended December 31, 2015, the loan associated with Greenville Mall, located in Greenville, North Carolina was refinanced with a new, non-recourse mortgage loan for $45.5 million. The loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 4.46%, matures in November 2025, and amortizes over 30 years. This loan replaced a $40.2 million non-recourse mortgage loan which had a fixed interest rate of 5.29%. 

Also, the loan associated with The Shoppes at Bel Air located in Mobile, Alabama, was refinanced with a new, non-recourse mortgage loan for $120.0 million. The initial funding of $110.5 million was used to retire the outstanding mortgage loan of $109.5 million which had a fixed interest rate of 5.30%. The loan provides for a subsequent funding of $9.5 million upon achieving certain conditions. The loan has an initial maturity of November 2018 and has a one year extension option. The loan bears interest at a floating rate of LIBOR (30 day) plus 235 basis points, and is interest only for the first two years and amortizes $137,500 per month, thereafter. The loan has a term of three years, with two one-year extension options subject to achieving certain conditions. The borrower entered into an interest swap beginning January 2016 which fixes the interest rate at 3.34%, through November 2018.

In addition, The Shoppes at Gateway was removed from the 2013 Senior Facility collateral pool and a new $75.0 million non-recourse mortgage loan was placed on the property. The loan bears interest at a floating rate of LIBOR (30 day) plus 220 basis points, has an initial maturity of January 2020 with a one year extension option, is interest only for the first four years and amortizes over 30 years during the extension period. The Company entered into an interest rate swap on the loan which fixes the interest rate at 3.64% through January 2020.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company completed $531.6 million of financings.

During the three months ended December 31, 2015, the Company acquired The Shoppes at Carlsbad located in Carlsbad, California, for a total purchase price of approximately $170.0 million, net of closing costs and adjustments. In conjunction with the closing Rouse Properties, L.P., the operating partnership of the Company, issued $140.0 million of Series A Preferred Units to the seller. The Shoppes at Carlsbad was added to the 2013 Senior Facility collateral pool with no change to the outstanding 2013 Senior Facility balance.

Forward Looking Statements
Certain matters within this press release are discussed using forward-looking language as specified in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and, as such, may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results or performance to differ from those projected in the forward-looking statement. These forward-looking statements may include statements related to the Company's ability to outperform the ongoing recovery of the Retail and REIT industry and the markets in which the Company's mall properties are located, the Company's ability to generate internal and external growth, the Company's ability to identify and complete the acquisition of properties in new markets, the Company's ability to complete redevelopment projects and the Company's ability to increase margins, including Net Operating Income. For a description of factors that may cause the Company's actual results or performance to differ from its forward-looking statements, please review the information under the heading “Risk Factors” included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and other documents filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Non GAAP Financial Measures
The Company makes reference to net operating income (“NOI”) and funds from operations (“FFO”).  NOI is defined as operating revenues (minimum rents, including lease termination fees, tenant recoveries, overage rents, and other income) less property and related expenses (property operating expenses, real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, marketing, and provision for doubtful accounts). We use FFO, as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, as a supplemental measure of our operating performance. FFO is defined as net income (loss) allocable to common stockholders in accordance with GAAP, excluding impairment write-downs on depreciable real estate, gains (or losses) from cumulative effects of accounting changes, extraordinary items and sales of properties, and real estate related depreciation and amortization. 
In order to present operations in a manner most relevant to its future operations, Core FFO and Core NOI have been presented to exclude certain non-cash and non-recurring revenue and expenses. A reconciliation of NOI to Core NOI and FFO to Core FFO has been included in the "Reconciliation of Core NOI and Core FFO" schedule attached to this release.
NOI, FFO and derivations thereof, are not alternatives to GAAP operating income (loss) or net income (loss) allocable to common stockholders.  For reference, as an aid in understanding management's computation of NOI and FFO, a reconciliation of NOI to operating income and FFO to net income (loss) in accordance with GAAP has been included in the "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP to GAAP Financial Measures" schedule attached to this release.

Supplemental Information
for the Quarter Ended December 31, 2015











Basis of Presentation                                                                                           


Background
Rouse is a publicly traded real estate investment trust (REIT) focused on the management, redevelopment, repositioning and acquisition of regional malls and the portfolio at the end of the quarter consisted of 36 geographically diverse malls and retail centers, encompassing over 24.9 million square feet in 21 states. On January 12, 2012, General Growth Properties, Inc. (NYSE: GGP) completed the spin-off of Rouse Properties, Inc. (NYSE: RSE) through the distribution of shares of Rouse common stock to holders of GGP common stock. On March 26, 2012, Rouse completed its rights offering and issued 13,333,333 shares of common stock for $191.6 million of net proceeds. On January 13, 2014, Rouse issued 8,050,000 shares of common stock in its equity offering for $150.7 million of net proceeds before deducting for offering expenses.

General Information
Unless the context indicates otherwise, references in the accompanying financial information (the "Supplemental") to the "Corporation", "Rouse", or the "Company" refer to Rouse Properties Inc.  Additionally, where reference is made to "GAAP", this refers to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.               
 
Non-GAAP Measures
The Company makes reference to net operating income (“NOI”) and funds from operations (“FFO”).  NOI is defined as operating revenues (minimum rents, including lease termination fees, tenant recoveries, overage rents, and other income) less property and related expenses (property operating expenses, real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, marketing, other property operating costs, and provision for doubtful accounts).  FFO is defined as net income (loss) allocable to common stockholders in accordance with GAAP, excluding impairment write-downs on depreciable real estate, gains (or losses) from cumulative effects of accounting changes, extraordinary items and sales of properties, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization. 

The Company also adjusts for the portion of consolidated net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interests of joint venture partners to reflect FFO allocable to the Company's common shareholders.
In order to present operations in a manner most relevant to its future operations, Core FFO and Core NOI have been presented to exclude certain non-cash and non-recurring revenue and expenses. A reconciliation of NOI to Core NOI and FFO to Core FFO has been included in the "Reconciliation of Core NOI and Core FFO" schedule included within.

NOI, FFO and derivations thereof, are not alternatives to GAAP operating income (loss) or net income (loss) allocable to common stockholders.  For reference, as an aid in understanding management's computation of NOI and FFO, a reconciliation of NOI to operating income and FFO to net income (loss) in accordance with GAAP has been included in the "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP to GAAP Financial Measures" schedule.
