During the fourth quarter of 2015, the company generated funds from operations (“FFO”) for common stockholders of $28.4 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, compared to $25.7 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2014. For the year ended December 31, 2015, the company generated FFO for common stockholders of $110.0 million, or $1.76 per diluted share, compared to $97.6 million, or $1.62 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2014. The increase in FFO from the corresponding periods in 2014 was due to growth in same-store net operating income and a decrease in interest expense attributed to the company's refinancing activities.

Net income attributable to common stockholders was $8.2 million, or $0.18 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2015 compared to $7.0 million, or $0.16 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended December 31, 2014. For the year ended December 31, 2015, net income attributable to common stockholders was $38.5 million, or $0.87 and $0.86 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income attributable to common stockholders of $21.8 million, or $0.52 and $0.51 per basic and diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2014. The increase in net income attributable to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2015 was due to the gain on the sale of Rancho Carmel Plaza during the third quarter of 2015 and a decrease in interest expense, as noted above.

FFO is a non-GAAP supplemental earnings measure which the company considers meaningful in measuring its operating performance. A reconciliation of FFO to net income is attached to this press release.
