“First quarter results reflect ongoing improvement in the same store performance of our real estate equity operating platforms, namely Colony Light Industrial and Colony Starwood Homes,” said Richard Saltzman, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “It does not yet incorporate any of the more meaningful net anticipated portfolio gains activity nor investment management benefits from new fund capital formation that we expect to have in place by year-end in order to meet our financial targets. Simultaneously, our real estate strategies developed over the last several years for both third-party investors and our balance sheet continue to fit well into the very fragile global macro environment. These strategies target 'equity' returns for 'debt-like' risk expressed through our global opportunistic credit and property sale-leaseback portfolios, as well as equity investment in those U.S. real estate sectors where the supply/demand fundamentals are the most compelling, including residential rentals and industrial.”

First Quarter 2016 Operating Results and Investment Activity by Segment

The Company holds investment interests in five reportable segments: Colony Light Industrial Platform (“CLIP”), Single Family Residential Rentals, Other Real Estate Equity, Real Estate Debt and Investment Management.

Equity: Colony Light Industrial Platform

The Company’s investment in CLIP represents a 62% interest in a portfolio of light industrial properties and 100% interest in the related operating platform. CLIP primarily invests in light industrial properties in infill locations in major U.S. metropolitan markets targeting superior risk-adjusted returns. Light industrial properties are typically defined as buildings of less than 250,000 square feet and an office buildout of less than 20%.

As of March 31, 2016, CLIP’s portfolio consisted of 325 primarily light industrial buildings totaling 34.8 million square feet across 16 major U.S. markets and was 94% leased. During the first quarter, CLIP’s same store portfolio of 289 buildings produced robust revenue growth of 6.8% and net operating income growth of 12.6% over the same period last year and achieved a net operating income margin of 67.6%.

During the first quarter, CLIP acquired two light industrial buildings totaling approximately 200,000 square feet for $18 million and disposed of two non-core buildings totaling approximately 166,000 square feet for $8.1 million. As of March 31, 2016, the Company’s share of total assets and equity in this segment were $1.2 billion and $468 million, respectively. This segment’s Core FFO for the quarter was $13.8 million.

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, CLIP acquired four light industrial buildings totaling approximately 669,000 square feet for $56 million. CLIP currently has $163 million of uncalled capital commitments of which $61 million is from third parties and the balance is from the Company. CLIP also has $60 million undrawn on its acquisition credit facility.

Equity: Single-Family Residential Rentals

On January 5, 2016, CAH and SWAY completed their merger, forming Colony Starwood Homes, with total asset value of approximately $7.7 billion. In connection with the merger, the Company received 15.1 million shares of SFR, which represent a 14.0% ownership of SFR. SFR has completed its merger integration and has achieved 85% of the estimated $50 million in annualized run-rate synergies. The merger transaction excluded CAF.

As of March 31, 2016, SFR owned and managed more than 30,000 homes with overall portfolio occupancy of 95%. During the first quarter, SFR’s same store portfolio of over 22,000 homes produced robust revenue growth of 6.1% and net operating income growth of 9.9% over the same period last year and achieved a core net operating income margin of 65.1%. SFR’s same store portfolio is defined as homes stabilized longer than 90 days prior to the beginning of the earliest period presented under the comparison, excluding homes subsequently sold. For the first quarter of 2016, SFR reported Core FFO of $43.3 million, or $0.40 per SFR share. SFR’s Core FFO excludes any gains or losses from property sales and the results associated with its non-performing loan business, which SFR intends to exit by end of year or sooner. Based on first quarter results, SFR has reaffirmed its full year 2016 Core FFO guidance of $1.55 to $1.65 per share.

SFR’s board declared a dividend for the second quarter of 2016 of $0.22 per share, which represents an annualized dividend yield of 3.4% on the Company’s cost basis. During the first quarter, SFR repurchased 2.0 million shares, resulting in the Company holding a 14.0% interest in SFR as of March 31, 2016 with a carrying value of $331 million, which does not include the Company’s $57 million share of CAF’s book value. This segment’s Core FFO for the quarter, which includes CAF, was $6.1 million.

Equity: Other Real Estate Equity Investments

The Company’s investment in other real estate equity includes triple net lease investments, real estate acquired in settlement of loans, common equity in real estate or related companies, and certain preferred equity investments with profit participation meeting certain risk and return profiles. Since the completion of the combination transaction with Colony Capital, LLC in April 2015, most of the investment activity in this segment is focused on buying assets that will be allocated to various Company-sponsored funds and vehicles.

As of March 31, 2016, approximately 50% of the net book value in this segment was composed of opportunistic real estate investments generally made through joint ventures with funds managed by the Company. Approximately 40% of the net book value in the segment was composed of triple net lease investments located primarily in Europe with a weighted average remaining lease term in excess of 14 years. The balance represents our $50 million investment in Albertsons/Safeway.

During the first quarter, the Company and funds managed by the Company invested and agreed to invest $147 million, including $91 million in a portfolio of 23 industrial properties in Spain. As of March 31, 2016, the Company’s share of total assets and equity in this segment were $1.3 billion and $577 million, respectively. This segment’s Core FFO for the quarter was $20.2 million.

Real Estate Debt

The Company’s investment in real estate debt includes originations and acquisitions of senior loans and subordinated debt including preferred equity meeting certain risk and fixed return parameters. Since the completion of the combination transaction with Colony Capital, LLC in April 2015, most of the investment activity in this segment is focused on debt investments that will be allocated to various Company-sponsored funds and vehicles.

As of March 31, 2016, approximately 75% of the net book value in this segment was composed of originated loans and approximately 25% was composed of acquired loans. The Company’s share of originated loans totaled $1.5 billion with a weighted average coupon of 8.1% and first quarter annualized Core FFO yield on average net book value was 11%. Originated loans carried a weighted average first dollar loan-to-value of 36% and last dollar loan-to-value of 74% accounting for any senior debt or investment-level financing. The Company’s share of acquired loans totaled $423 million and first quarter annualized Core FFO yield on average net book value was 9% excluding loan loss provisions.

During the first quarter, the Company invested $29 million in a first mortgage loan origination and, on behalf of the Company and funds managed by the Company, sold a $75 million A-note related to a first mortgage loan acquired at a discount to par in the fourth quarter of 2015. As of March 31, 2016, the Company’s share of total assets and equity in this segment were $3.2 billion and $2.0 billion, respectively. This segment’s Core FFO for the quarter was $48.6 million.

Real Estate Investment Management

The Company’s real estate investment management segment includes the business and operations of managing Company-sponsored funds and other investment vehicles for third-party investors. During the first quarter, the Company invested $100 million on behalf of funds managed by the Company. As of March 31, 2016, the Company had $18.2 billion of AUM and $7.9 billion of FEEUM compared to $18.8 billion of AUM and $9.3 billion of FEEUM as of December 31, 2015. AUM declined primarily from the sale of a non-fee bearing private equity investment and FEEUM decreased primarily as a result of reductions relating to two 2006 vintage funds. As of March 31, 2016, the Company’s share of total assets and equity in this segment was $791 million and $740 million, respectively. This segment’s Core FFO for the quarter was $8.9 million.

In March 2016, the Company formed a real estate securities investment vehicle with total callable capital commitments of approximately $115 million. The Company’s commitment of $5 million represents an approximate 4.4% interest, with third-party partners holding the balance. The new vehicle targets for investment purposes the common stock and preferred stock of publicly traded U.S. real estate investment trusts, including securities of the Company.

Credit Facility

On March 31, 2016, the Company entered into an amended and restated revolving credit facility, which increased aggregate commitments from $800 million to $850 million, which is fully available to the Company based on current borrowing base availability. The restated terms include improvements including, among other things, lower interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.25% compared to LIBOR plus 2.75%, lower unused commitment fees, increased accordion allowing for a maximum commitment balance of $1.275 billion, increased borrowing base availability and longer term with an initial term of four years with two six-month extension options exercisable at the Company’s election.

COLONY CAPITAL, INC.
RECONCILIATION OF NET INCOME TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(Unaudited)

We calculate funds from operations ("FFO") in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, which defines FFO as net income or loss calculated in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary items, as defined by GAAP, gains and losses from sales of depreciable real estate and impairment write-downs associated with depreciable real estate, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization, and after similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

We compute core funds from operations ("Core FFO") by adjusting FFO for the following items, including our share of these items recognized by our unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures: (i) gains and losses from sales of depreciable real estate, net of depreciation, amortization and impairment previously adjusted for FFO; (ii) stock compensation expense; (iii) effects of straight-line rent revenue and straight-line rent expense on ground leases; (iv) amortization of acquired above- and below-market lease values; (v) amortization of deferred financing costs and debt premiums and discounts; (vi) unrealized fair value gains or losses on derivative instruments and on foreign currency remeasurements; (vii) acquisition-related expenses, merger and integration costs; (viii) amortization and impairment of finite-lived intangibles related to investment management contracts and customer relationships; (ix) deferred tax benefit related to amortization and impairment of investment management contracts and customer relationships; (x) gain on remeasurement of consolidated investment entities, net of deferred tax liability, and the effect of amortization thereof; (xi) non-real estate depreciation and amortization; and (xii) change in fair value of contingent consideration. Also, beginning with the first quarter of 2016, our share of Core FFO from our interest in SFR will represent our percentage interest multiplied by SFR’s reported Core FFO, which may differ from our calculation of Core FFO. Refer to SFR’s filings for its definition and calculation of Core FFO.

FFO and Core FFO should not be considered alternatives to GAAP net income as indications of operating performance, or to cash flows from operating activities as measures of liquidity, nor as indications of the availability of funds for our cash needs, including funds available to make distributions. Our calculations of FFO and Core FFO may differ from methodologies utilized by other REITs for similar performance measurements, and, accordingly, may not be comparable to those of other REITs.
