99.1 Press release dated January 26, 1998.
Exhibit 99.1
Security Capital Pacific Trust (NYSE: PTR) reported Funds from
Operations (FFO) attributable to common shares of $39.4 million, or $0.43
per common share, for the quarter ended December 31, 1997. This represents
a 13.2% increase in FFO per share, compared with $28.7 million, or $0.38
per common share, for the same quarter of 1996. PTR's development
communities generated approximately 55% of the increase in FFO, and 18% was
produced by the strong internal growth of the company's same-store
operating communities.
PTR also achieved very solid growth during the year ended December
31, 1997, reporting FFO attributable to common shares of $131.6 million, or
$1.61 per common share on revenues of $354.4 million for the year. This
represents an 11.8% increase in FFO per share, compared with FFO of $105.4
million, or $1.44 per common share in 1996. The FFO results reported above
are calculated consistent with the methodology used in prior periods.
"Our fourth quarter results were very strong and reflect the
outstanding performance of our development communities, together with
continually improving internal growth from our operating communities," said
R. Scot Sellers, president and chief executive officer. PTR achieved growth
of 4.27% in revenues and 4.18% in net operating income (NOI) for its
same-store communities during the quarter. "This is the fourth consecutive
quarter in which PTR's revenue growth has increased, which is a direct
result of our extensive redeployment of capital to markets with high
barriers to entry," he said.
Development Pipeline is a Powerful Component of Long-Term Growth
Mr. Sellers noted that PTR's West Coast development pipeline
positions the company for significant growth in 1998 and beyond. PTR owns
or controls land for the development of $943.0 million of new communities
in its West Coast markets that are either under construction or in
planning. "Our early entry into these markets allowed us to control very
well-located sites at prices that in many cases are less than 60% of
current land values," said Mr. Sellers. "This will allow us to compete and
stabilize more than $200 million in new development communities annually at
very attractive yields, during each of the next four years. These new
development communities will be a powerful component of our future growth
in FFO per share," he said.
During the quarter, PTR commenced construction on more than $131.9
million of new communities, including two communities in the San Francisco
Bay area which represent a total expected investment of $69.9 million. PTR
will also start an additional $114.5 million of new communities in the San
Francisco Bay area and San Diego during the first quarter of 1998. "These
communities are exceptionally well-located in dynamic growth markets with
high barriers to entry, and should have a very positive impact on our
future performance," said Mr.
Sellers.
Well Positioned for Growth in 1998
"We believe PTR is very well positioned for solid growth in 1998,"
said Mr. Sellers. The company expects to start a total of over $300 million
in new development communities in 1998, in markets and submarkets with high
barriers to entry. "These developments are expected to contribute
substantially to our growth in FFO going forward," he said. "In addition,
the strength of our markets should result in very consistent revenue growth
throughout 1998, due to the limited new competition and continuing strong
demand fundamentals."
PTR is the preeminent real estate operating company focusing on
the development, acquisition, operation and long-term ownership of
multifamily communities in the growing markets of the western United
States. PTR's primary objective is generating long-term, sustainable growth
in per share cash flow. As of December 31, 1997, PTR's portfolio of
garden-style multifamily communities included 43,465 operating units, 5,545
units under construction and an estimated 10,558 units in planning.
In addition to historical information, this press release contains
forward-looking statements under the federal securities law. These
statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections
-1-
<PAGE>
about the industry and markets in which PTR operates, management's beliefs
and assumptions made by management. Forward-looking statements are not
guarantees of future performance and involve certain credit risks and
uncertainties which are difficult to predict. Actual operating results may
be affected by changes in national and local economic conditions,
competitive market conditions, weather, obtaining governmental approvals
and meeting development schedules, and therefore, may differ materially
from what is expressed or forecasted in this press release.

statements do not give effect to pro forma calculations relating
to the spin-off of Homestead Assets.
(B) The difference between the merger purchase price and the estimated
fair value of the net tangible assets acquired was recorded as a
non-recurring charge. This one-time adjustment was recorded as an
operating expense but it was not deducted for purposes of
calculating Funds From Operations, due to the non-recurring and
non-cash nature of the expense.
