EXPLANATORY
NOTE
This report combines the quarterly reports on
Form 10-Q
for the period ended March 31, 2010 of AMB Property
Corporation and AMB Property, L.P. Unless stated otherwise or
the context otherwise requires: references to AMB Property
Corporation, the Parent Company or the
parent company mean AMB Property Corporation, a
Maryland corporation, and its controlled subsidiaries; and
references to AMB Property, L.P., the
Operating Partnership or the operating
partnership mean AMB Property, L.P., a Delaware limited
partnership, and its controlled subsidiaries. The terms
the Company and the company mean the
parent company, the operating partnership and their controlled
subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. In addition, references to
the company, the parent company or the operating partnership
could mean the entity itself or one or a number of their
controlled subsidiaries.
The parent company is a real estate investment trust and the
general partner of the operating partnership. As of
March 31, 2010, the parent company owned an approximate
97.8% general partnership interest in the operating partnership,
excluding preferred units. The remaining approximate 2.2% common
limited partnership interests are owned by non-affiliated
investors and certain current and former directors and officers
of the parent company. As of March 31, 2010, the parent
company owned all of the preferred limited partnership units of
the operating partnership. As the sole general partner of the
operating partnership, the parent company has the full,
exclusive and complete responsibility for the operating
partnerships
day-to-day
management and control.
The company believes combining the quarterly reports on
Form 10-Q
of the parent company and the operating partnership into this
single report results in the following benefits:
|
|
|
|
|
enhancing investors understanding of the parent company
and the operating partnership by enabling investors to view the
business as a whole in the same manner as management views and
operates the business;
|
|
|
|
eliminating duplicative disclosure and providing a more
streamlined and readable presentation since a substantial
portion of the companys disclosure applies to both the
parent company and the operating partnership; and
|
|
|
|
creating time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of
one combined report instead of two separate reports.
|
Management operates the parent company and the operating
partnership as one enterprise. The management of the parent
company consists of the same members as the management of the
operating partnership. These members are officers of the parent
company and employees of the operating partnership.
There are few differences between the parent company and the
operating partnership, which are reflected in the disclosure in
this report. The company believes it is important to understand
the differences between the parent company and the operating
partnership in the context of how the parent company and the
operating partnership operate as an interrelated consolidated
company. The parent company is a real estate investment trust,
whose only material asset is its ownership of partnership
interests of the operating partnership. As a result, the parent
company does not conduct business itself, other than acting as
the sole general partner of the operating partnership, issuing
public equity from time to time and guaranteeing certain debt of
the operating partnership. The parent company itself does not
hold any indebtedness but guarantees some of the secured and
unsecured debt of the operating partnership, as disclosed in
this report. The operating partnership holds substantially all
the assets of the company and holds the ownership interests in
the companys joint ventures. The operating partnership
conducts the operations of the business and is structured as a
partnership with no publicly traded equity. Except for net
proceeds from public equity issuances by the parent company,
which are contributed to the operating partnership in exchange
for partnership units, the operating partnership generates the
capital required by the companys business through the
operating partnerships operations, by the operating
partnerships direct or indirect incurrence of indebtedness
or through the issuance of partnership units of the operating
partnership or its subsidiaries.
Noncontrolling interests and stockholders equity and
partners capital are the main areas of difference between
the consolidated financial statements of the parent company and
those of the operating partnership. The common limited
partnership interests in the operating partnership are accounted
for as partners capital in the operating
partnerships financial statements and as noncontrolling
interests in the parent companys financial statements. The
noncontrolling interests in the operating partnerships
financial statements include the interests of
joint venture partners, and preferred limited partnership
unitholders and common limited partnership unitholders of AMB
Property II, L.P., a subsidiary of the operating partnership.
The noncontrolling interests in the parent companys
financial statements include the same noncontrolling interests
at the operating partnership level and limited partnership
unitholders of the operating partnership. The differences
between stockholders equity and partners capital
result from the differences in the equity issued at the parent
company and operating partnership levels.
To help investors understand the significant differences between
the parent company and the operating partnership, this report
presents the following separate sections for each of the parent
company and the operating partnership:
|
|
|
|
|
consolidated financial statements;
|
|
|
|
the following notes to the consolidated financial statements:
|
|
|
|
|
|
Debt;
|
|
|
|
Noncontrolling Interests; and
|
|
|
|
Stockholders Equity of the Parent Company/Partners
Capital of the Operating Partnership; and
|
|
|
|
|
|
Liquidity and Capital Resources in the Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations.
|
This report also includes separate Item 4. Controls and
Procedures sections and separate Exhibit 31 and
32 certifications for each of the parent company and the
operating partnership in order to establish that the Chief
Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of each entity
have made the requisite certifications and that the parent
company and operating partnership are compliant with
Rule 13a-15
or
Rule 15d-15
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and 18 U.S.C.
§ 1350.
In order to highlight the differences between the parent company
and the operating partnership, the separate sections in this
report for the parent company and the operating partnership
specifically refer to the parent company and the operating
partnership. In the sections that combine disclosure of the
parent company and the operating partnership, this report refers
to actions or holdings as being actions or holdings of the
company. Although the operating partnership is generally the
entity that directly or indirectly enters into contracts and
joint ventures and holds assets and debt, reference to the
company is appropriate because the business is one enterprise
and the parent company operates the business through the
operating partnership.
As general partner with control of the operating partnership,
the parent company consolidates the operating partnership for
financial reporting purposes, and the parent company does not
have significant assets other than its investment in the
operating partnership. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of
the parent company and the operating partnership are the same on
their respective financial statements. The separate discussions
of the parent company and the operating partnership in this
report should be read in conjunction with each other to
understand the results of the company on a consolidated basis
and how management operates the company.

Organization
and Formation of the Parent Company and the Operating
Partnership
|
The Parent Company commenced operations as a fully integrated
real estate company effective with the completion of its initial
public offering on November 26, 1997. The Parent Company
elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust
(REIT) under Sections 856 through 860 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
Code), commencing with its taxable year ended
December 31, 1997, and believes its current organization
and method of operation will enable it to maintain its status as
a REIT. The Parent Company, through its controlling interest in
its subsidiary, the Operating Partnership, is engaged in the
ownership, acquisition, development and operation of industrial
properties in key distribution markets throughout the Americas,
Europe and Asia. Unless otherwise indicated, the notes to
consolidated financial statements apply to both the Parent
Company and the Operating Partnership.
The Company uses the terms industrial properties or
industrial buildings to describe the various types
of industrial properties in its portfolio and uses these terms
interchangeably with the following: logistics facilities,
centers or warehouses; distribution facilities, centers or
warehouses; High Throughput
Distribution®
(HTD®)
facilities; or any combination of these terms. The Company uses
the term owned and managed to describe assets in
which it has at least a 10% ownership interest, for which it is
the property or asset manager and which it currently intends to
hold long term. The Company uses the term joint
venture to describe all joint ventures, including
co-investment ventures with real estate developers, other real
estate operators, or institutional investors where the Company
may or may not have control, act as the manager
and/or
developer, earn asset management distributions or fees, or earn
incentive distributions or promote interests. In certain cases,
the Company might provide development, leasing, property
management
and/or
accounting services, for which it may receive compensation. The
Company uses the term co-investment venture to
describe joint ventures with institutional investors, managed by
the Company, from which the Company typically receives
acquisition fees for acquisitions, portfolio and asset
management distributions or fees, as well as incentive
distributions or promote interests.
As of March 31, 2010, the Parent Company owned an
approximate 97.8% general partnership interest in the Operating
Partnership, excluding preferred units. The remaining
approximate 2.2% common limited partnership interests are owned
by non-affiliated investors and certain current and former
directors and officers of the Parent Company. As the sole
general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company
has full, exclusive and complete responsibility and discretion
in the
day-to-day
management and control of the Operating Partnership. Net
operating results of the Operating Partnership are allocated
after preferred unit distributions based on the respective
partners ownership interests. Certain properties are owned
by the Company through limited partnerships, limited liability
companies and other entities. The ownership of such properties
through such entities does not materially affect the
Companys overall ownership interests in the properties.
Through the Operating Partnership, the Company enters into
co-investment ventures with institutional investors. These
co-investment ventures provide the Company with an additional
source of capital and income. As of March 31, 2010, the
Company had significant investments in three consolidated and
five unconsolidated
co-investment
ventures.
Effective January 1, 2010, the name of the Companys
unconsolidated co-investment venture AMB Institutional
Alliance Fund III, L.P. was changed to AMB
U.S. Logistics Fund, L.P.
AMB Capital Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
(AMB Capital Partners), provides real estate
investment services to clients on a fee basis. Headlands Realty
Corporation, a Maryland corporation, conducts a variety of
businesses that includes development projects available for sale
or contribution to third parties and incremental income
programs. IMD Holding Corporation, a Delaware corporation,
conducts a variety of businesses that also includes development
projects available for sale or contribution to third parties.

Interim
Financial Statements
|
These consolidated financial statements included herein have
been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the
SEC). Accordingly, certain information and note
disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States (GAAP) have been condensed or
omitted.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited
consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments of a
normal, recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the
Companys consolidated financial position and results of
operations for the interim periods presented. The interim
results for the three months ended March 31, 2010 are not
necessarily indicative of future results. These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and the notes thereto included in the Annual Report
on
Form 10-K
for the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership for the
year ended December 31, 2009.
Reclassifications. Certain items in the
consolidated financial statements for prior periods have been
reclassified to conform to current classifications.
Real Estate Impairment Losses and Restructuring
Charges. The Company conducts a comprehensive
review of all real estate asset classes in accordance with its
policy of accounting for the impairment or disposal of
long-lived assets, which indicates that asset values should be
analyzed whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying value of a property may not be fully
recoverable. The intended use of an asset, either held for sale
or held for the long term, can significantly impact how
impairment is measured. If an asset is intended to be held for
the long term, the impairment analysis is based on a two-step
test. The first test measures estimated expected future cash
flows over the holding period, including a residual value
(undiscounted and without interest charges), against the
carrying value of the property. If the asset fails the test,
then the asset carrying value is measured against the estimated
fair value from a market participant standpoint, with the excess
of the assets carrying value over the estimated fair value
recognized as an impairment charge to earnings. If an asset is
intended to be sold, impairment is tested based on a one-step
test, comparing the carrying value to the estimated fair value
less costs to sell. The estimation of expected future net cash
flows is inherently uncertain and relies on assumptions
regarding current and future economic and market conditions and
the availability of capital. The Company determines the
estimated fair values based on assumptions regarding rental
rates, costs to complete,
lease-up and
holding periods, as well as sales prices or contribution values.
The Company also utilizes the knowledge of its
10

STATEMENTS (Continued)
regional teams and the recent valuations of its two open-ended
funds, which contain a large, geographically diversified pool of
assets, all of which are subject to third-party appraisals on at
least an annual basis. During the three months ended
March 31, 2010, the Company did not recognize any real
estate impairment losses. The Company recognized real estate
impairment losses of $181.9 million during the three months
ended March 31, 2009 on certain of its investments. These
real estate impairment losses did not impact the Companys
liquidity, cost and availability of credit or affect the
Operating Partnerships continued compliance with its
various financial covenants under its credit facilities and
unsecured bonds.
The Company recognized restructuring charges of approximately
$3.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010
associated with severance and the termination of certain
contractual obligations. The majority of the restructuring
charges were cash-related expenses. The Company did not
recognize any restructuring charges for the three months ended
March 31, 2009.
Investments in Consolidated and Unconsolidated Joint
Ventures. The Company holds interests in both
consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures. The Company
consolidates joint ventures where it exhibits financial or
operational control. Control is determined using accounting
standards related to the consolidation of joint ventures and
variable interest entities. For joint ventures that are defined
as variable interest entities, the primary beneficiary
consolidates the entity. In instances where the Company is not
the primary beneficiary, it does not consolidate the joint
venture for financial reporting purposes. For joint ventures
that are not defined as variable interest entities, management
first considers whether the Company is the general partner or a
limited partner (or the equivalent in such investments which are
not structured as partnerships). The Company consolidates joint
ventures where it is the general partner (or the equivalent) and
the limited partners (or the equivalent) in such investments do
not have rights which would preclude control and, therefore,
consolidation for financial reporting purposes. For joint
ventures where the Company is the general partner (or the
equivalent), but does not control the joint venture as the other
partners (or the equivalent) hold substantive participating
rights, the Company uses the equity method of accounting. For
joint ventures where the Company is a limited partner (or the
equivalent), management considers factors such as ownership
interest, voting control, authority to make decisions, and
contractual and substantive participating rights of the partners
(or the equivalent) to determine if the presumption that the
general partner controls the entity is overcome. In instances
where these factors indicate the Company controls the joint
venture, the Company consolidates the joint venture; otherwise
it uses the equity method of accounting.
Under the equity method, investments in unconsolidated joint
ventures are initially recognized in the balance sheet at cost
and are subsequently adjusted to reflect the Companys
proportionate share of net earnings or losses of the joint
venture, distributions received, contributions, deferred gains
from the contribution of properties and certain other
adjustments, as appropriate. When circumstances indicate there
may have been a loss in value of an equity investment, the
Company evaluates the investment for impairment by estimating
the Companys ability to recover its investment or if the
loss in value is other than temporary. To evaluate whether an
impairment is other than temporary, the Company considers
relevant factors, including, but not limited to, the period of
time in any unrealized loss position, the likelihood of a future
recovery, and the Companys positive intent and ability to
hold the investment until the forecasted recovery. If the
Company determines the loss in value is other than temporary,
the Company recognizes an impairment charge to reflect the
investment at fair value. Fair value is determined through
various valuation techniques, including, but not limited to,
discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third
party appraisals. At March 31, 2010, the fair value of the
investment in AMB U.S. Logistics Fund L.P. was less
than the carrying value of the investment due to the fair value
of the underlying properties being below the book value. No
impairment charge was recognized for the three months ended
March 31, 2010 because the Company deemed the impairment to
be temporary. However, the Companys analysis is an ongoing
process and there can be no assurance that the Company will not
recognize such impairment charges in the future.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Effective
April 1, 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued guidance which the Company has adopted regarding
the evaluation of the fair value of financial instruments for
interim reporting periods as well as in annual financial
statements. Due to their short-term nature,
11
AMB
PROPERTY CORPORATION AND AMB PROPERTY, L.P.
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
the estimated fair value for cash and cash equivalents,
restricted cash, accounts receivable, dividends payable, and
accounts payable and other liabilities approximate their book
value. Based on borrowing rates available to the Company at
March 31, 2010, the book value and the estimated fair value
of total debt (both secured and unsecured) were both
$3.3 billion. The estimated fair value of Deferred
Financing Costs approximates its book value. Refer to
Note 15, Derivatives and Hedging Activities for
their related fair value disclosures.
In September 2006, the FASB issued guidance, updated in October
2009 for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2009,
related to accounting for fair value measurements which defines
fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value
in order to meet disclosure requirements for fair value
measurements. Fair value is defined as the exchange price that
would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability
(an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for
the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market
participants on the measurement date. This guidance also
establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to
maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of
unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. This hierarchy
describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure
fair value.
Financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on the
consolidated balance sheets are categorized based on the inputs
to the valuation techniques as follows:
Level 1. Quoted prices in active markets
for identical assets or liabilities. Level 1 assets and
liabilities include debt and equity securities and derivative
contracts that are traded in an active exchange market.
Level 2. Observable inputs other than
Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or
liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or
other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by
observable market data for substantially the full term of the
assets or liabilities. Level 2 assets and liabilities
include debt securities with quoted prices that are traded less
frequently than exchange-traded instruments and derivative
contracts whose value is determined using a pricing model with
inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived
principally from or corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3. Unobservable inputs that are
supported by little or no market activity and that are
significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial
instruments whose value is determined using pricing models,
discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as
well as instruments for which the determination of fair value
requires significant management judgment or estimation using
unobservable inputs. This category generally includes long-term
derivative contracts, real estate and unconsolidated joint
ventures.

New Accounting Pronouncements. In June 2009,
the FASB issued amended guidance related to the consolidation of
variable-interest entities. These amendments require an
enterprise to qualitatively assess the determination of the
primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity
(VIE) based on whether the entity (1) has the
power to direct matters that most significantly impact the
activities of the VIE, and (2) has the obligation to absorb
losses or the right to receive benefits of the VIE that could
potentially be significant to the VIE. Additionally, they
require an ongoing reconsideration of the primary beneficiary
and provide a framework for the events that trigger a
reassessment of whether an entity is a VIE. This guidance is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years
beginning after November 15, 2009, and the Company has
adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2010. The Company
has evaluated the impact of the adoption of this guidance, and
it does not have a material impact on the Companys
financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Real
Estate Acquisition and Development Activity
|
During the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the
Company did not acquire any properties.
As of March 31, 2010, the Company had nine
construction-in-progress
development projects, on an owned and managed basis, which are
expected to total approximately 3.7 million square feet and
have an aggregate estimated investment of $284.0 million
upon completion, net of $16.7 million of cumulative real
estate impairment losses to date. One of these projects totaling
approximately 0.6 million square feet with an aggregate
estimated investment of $66.4 million was held in an
unconsolidated co-investment venture.
Construction-in-progress,
at March 31, 2010, included projects expected to be
completed through the third quarter of 2011.
On a consolidated basis, as of March 31, 2010, the Company
had an additional 33 pre-stabilized development projects
totaling approximately 9.6 million square feet, with an
aggregate estimated investment of $930.6 million, net of
$80.3 million of cumulative real estate impairment losses
to date, and an aggregate gross book value of
$902.0 million, net of cumulative real estate impairment
losses.
On a consolidated basis, as of March 31, 2010, the Company
and its development joint venture partners had funded an
aggregate of $1.2 billion, or 96%, of the total estimated
investment before the impact of real estate impairment losses
and will need to fund an estimated additional
$51.7 million, or 4%, in order to complete the
Companys development portfolio.
In addition to the Companys committed
construction-in-progress,
it held a total of 2,393 acres of land for future
development or sale, on a consolidated basis, approximately 85%
of which was located in North America. The Company currently
estimates that these 2,393 acres of land could support
approximately 43.6 million square feet of future
development.

Development Sales and Contributions. During
the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company
recognized development profits of approximately
$4.8 million primarily as a result of the sale of
development projects to third-parties, aggregating approximately
0.3 million square feet for an aggregate sales price of
$22.9 million. This includes the installment sale of
approximately 0.2 million square feet for
$12.5 million with development profits of $3.9 million
recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2010, which
was initiated in the fourth quarter of 2009 and completed in the
first quarter of 2010. During the three months ended
March 31, 2009, the Company recognized development profits
of approximately $4.7 million as a result of the sale of
development projects and land parcels, aggregating approximately
0.5 million square feet and five acres, respectively.
During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company
did not contribute any development projects to unconsolidated
co-investment ventures. During the three months ended
March 31, 2009, the Company recognized development profits
of approximately $28.6 million, as a result of the
contribution of one completed development project, aggregating
approximately 1.0 million square feet, to AMB Japan
Fund I, L.P.
Properties Held for Sale or Contribution,
Net. As of March 31, 2010, the Company held
for sale three properties with an aggregate net book value of
$7.6 million. These properties either are not in the
Companys core markets, do not meet its current investment
objectives, or are included as part of its
development-for-sale
or value-added conversion programs. The sales of the properties
are subject to negotiation of acceptable terms and other
customary conditions. Properties held for sale are stated at the
lower of cost or estimated fair value less costs to sell. As of
December 31, 2009, the Company held for sale three
properties with an aggregate net book value of
$13.9 million.
As of March 31, 2010, the Company held for contribution to
co-investment ventures eight properties with an aggregate net
book value of $140.2 million, which, if contributed, will
reduce the Companys average ownership interest in these
projects from approximately 95% to an expected range of less
than 40%. As of December 31, 2009, the Company held for
contribution to co-investment ventures 11 properties with an
aggregate net book value of $200.5 million.
As of March 31, 2010, properties with an aggregate net book
value of $53.1 million were reclassified from held for
contribution to investments in real estate as a result of the
change in managements intent to hold these assets. These
properties may be reclassified as properties held for sale or
held for contribution at some future time. In accordance with
the Companys policies of accounting for the impairment or
disposal of long-lived assets, during the three months ended
March 31, 2010, the Company recognized $1.2 million
additional depreciation expense and related accumulated
depreciation as a result of the reclassification of assets from
properties held for sale or contribution to investments in real
estate. During the three months ended March 31, 2009, the
Company recognized additional depreciation expense and related
accumulated depreciation of $3.2 million as a result of
similar reclassifications, as well as impairment charges of
$55.8 million on real estate assets held for sale or
contribution for which it was determined that the carrying value
was greater than the estimated fair value.
Discontinued Operations. The Company reports
its property sales as discontinued operations separately as
prescribed under its policy of accounting for the impairment or
disposal of long-lived assets. During the three months ended
March 31, 2010, the Company did not sell any industrial
operating properties. During the three months ended
March 31, 2009, the Company sold approximately
0.7 million square feet of industrial operating properties
for a sale price of $58.4 million, with a resulting gain of
$19.1 million. These gains are presented in gains from sale
of real estate interests, net of taxes, as discontinued
operations in the consolidated statements of operations.

Debt of
the Parent Company
|
The Parent Company itself does not hold any indebtedness. All
debt is held directly or indirectly by the Operating
Partnership. The debt that is guaranteed by the Parent Company
is discussed below. Note 6 below entitled Debt of the
Operating Partnership should be read in conjunction with
this Note 5 for a discussion of the debt of the Operating
Partnership consolidated into the Parent Companys
financial statements. In this Note 5, the Parent
Company refers only to AMB Property Corporation and not to
any of its subsidiaries.
Unsecured
Senior Debt Guarantees
The Parent Company guarantees the Operating Partnerships
obligations with respect to its unsecured senior debt
securities. As of March 31, 2010, the Operating Partnership
had outstanding an aggregate of $1.2 billion in unsecured
senior debt securities, which bore a weighted average interest
rate of 6.4% and had an average term of 5.8 years. The
indenture for the senior debt securities contains limitations on
mergers or consolidations of the Parent Company.
Other
Debt Guarantees
The Parent Company guarantees certain of the Operating
Partnerships other debt obligations related to its
$425.0 million multi-currency senior unsecured term loan
facility, which includes Euro and Yen tranches. Using the
exchange rates in effect on March 31, 2010, the facility
had an outstanding balance of approximately $412.6 million
in U.S. dollars, which bore a weighted average interest
rate of 3.9% and matures in October 2012.
Unsecured
Credit Facility Guarantees
The Parent Company is a guarantor of the Operating
Partnerships obligations under its $550.0 million
(includes Euros, Yen, British pounds sterling or
U.S. dollar denominated borrowings) unsecured revolving
credit facility that had an original maturity of June 1,
2010. Subsequent to quarter end, the Operating Partnership
exercised its option to extend the maturity date to
June 2011. This extension is subject to certain conditions.
The Parent Company and the Operating Partnership guarantee the
obligations of AMB Japan Finance Y.K., a subsidiary of the
Operating Partnership, under a Yen-denominated unsecured
revolving credit facility, as well as the obligations of any
other entity in which the Operating Partnership directly or
indirectly owns an ownership interest and which is selected from
time to time to be a borrower under and pursuant to the credit
agreement. This credit facility has an initial borrowing limit
of 55.0 billion Yen, which, using the exchange rate in
effect on March 31, 2010, equaled approximately
$588.5 million U.S. dollars and bore a weighted
average interest rate of 0.68%. This facilty had an original
maturity date of June 22 2010. Subsequent to quarter end,
the Operating Partnership exercised its option to extend the
maturity date to June 2011. This extension is subject to
certain conditions.
The Parent Company and the Operating Partnership guarantee the
obligations for such subsidiaries and other entities controlled
by the Operating Partnership that are selected by the Operating
Partnership from time to time to be borrowers under and pursuant
to a $500.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility.
The Operating Partnership and certain of its wholly owned
subsidiaries, each acting as a borrower, and the Parent Company
and the Operating
16
AMB
PROPERTY CORPORATION AND AMB PROPERTY, L.P.
NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
Partnership, as guarantors, entered into this credit facility,
which has an option to further increase the facility to
$750.0 million, to extend the maturity date to July 2012
and to allow for borrowing in Indian rupees.
The credit agreements related to the above facilities contain
limitations on the incurrence of liens and limitations on
mergers or consolidations of the Parent Company.
If the Operating Partnership is unable to refinance or extend
principal payments due at maturity or pay them with proceeds
from other capital transactions, then its cash flow may be
insufficient to pay its distributions to the Parent Company,
which will have, as a result, insufficient funds to pay cash
dividends to the Parent Companys stockholders.
Furthermore, if prevailing interest rates or other factors at
the time of refinancing (such as the reluctance of lenders to
make commercial real estate loans) result in higher interest
rates upon refinancing, then the Operating Partnerships
interest expense relating to that refinanced indebtedness would
increase. This increased interest expense of the Operating
Partnership would adversely affect its ability to pay its
distributions to the Parent Company, which will, in turn,
adversely affect the Parent Companys ability to pay cash
dividends to its stockholders and the market price of the Parent
Companys stock.
In the event that the Operating Partnership does not have
sufficient cash available through its operations or under its
lines of credit to continue operating its business as usual,
including making its distributions to the Parent Company, it may
need to find alternative ways to increase its liquidity. Such
alternatives may include, without limitation, decreasing the
Operating Partnerships cash distribution to the Parent
Company and paying some of the Parent Companys dividends
in stock rather than cash. In addition, the Parent Company may
issue equity in public or private transactions whether or not
with favorable pricing or on favorable terms and contribute the
proceeds of such issuances to the Operating Partnership for a
number of partnership units in the Operating Partnership equal
to the number of shares of Parent Company stock issued in the
applicable transaction.

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
Wholly
Owned and Consolidated Joint Venture Secured Debt
Secured debt generally requires monthly principal and interest
payments. Some of the loans are cross-collateralized by multiple
properties. The secured debt is collateralized by deeds of
trust, mortgages or other instruments on certain properties and
is generally non-recourse. As of March 31, 2010 and
December 31, 2009, the total gross investment book value of
those properties securing the debt was $1.9 billion and
$2.0 billion, respectively, including $1.5 billion
held in consolidated joint ventures as of both balance sheet
dates. As of March 31, 2010, $608.4 million of the
secured debt obligations before unamortized net discounts bore
interest at fixed rates (with a weighted average interest rate
of 6.4%), while the remaining $355.6 million bore interest
at variable rates (with a weighted average interest rate of
2.4%). As of March 31, 2010, $600.2 million of the
secured debt before unamortized net discounts was held by the
Operating Partnerships co-investment ventures.
Unsecured
Senior Debt
As of March 31, 2010, the Operating Partnership had
outstanding an aggregate of $1.2 billion in unsecured
senior debt securities, which bore a weighted average interest
rate of 6.4% and had an average term of 5.8 years.
The Parent Company guarantees the Operating Partnerships
obligations with respect to its unsecured senior debt
securities. The unsecured senior debt securities are subject to
various covenants of the Operating Partnership. These covenants
contain affirmative covenants, including compliance with
financial reporting requirements and maintenance of specified
financial ratios, and negative covenants, including limitations
on the incurrence of liens and limitations on mergers or
consolidations. The Operating Partnership was in compliance with
its financial covenants for all unsecured senior debt securities
at March 31, 2010.
Other
Debt
As of March 31, 2010, the Operating Partnership had
$477.9 million outstanding in other debt which bore a
weighted average interest rate of 4.1% and had an average term
of 2.6 years. Other debt includes a $70.0 million
credit facility obtained on August 24, 2007 by AMB
Institutional Alliance Fund II, L.P., a subsidiary of the
Operating Partnership, which had a $54.3 million balance
outstanding as of March 31, 2010. Of the
$423.6 million remaining outstanding balance of other debt,
$412.6 million is related to the loan facility described
below.
In October 2009, the Operating Partnership refinanced its
$325.0 million senior unsecured term loan facility, which
was set to mature in September 2010, with a $345.0 million
multi-currency facility, maturing October 2012. In December
2009, the Operating Partnership exercised its option and
increased the facility to $425.0 million, in accordance
with the terms set forth in the credit facility. Using the
exchange rates in effect on March 31, 2010, the facility
had an outstanding balance of approximately $412.6 million
in U.S. dollars, which bore a weighted average interest
rate of 3.9%. The Parent Company guarantees the Operating
Partnerships obligations with respect to certain of its
unsecured debt. These covenants contain affirmative covenants,
including compliance with financial reporting requirements and
maintenance of specified financial ratios, and negative
covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of liens and
limitations on mergers or consolidations. The Operating
Partnership was in compliance with its financial covenants for
all other debt at March 31, 2010.
Unsecured
Credit Facilities
As of March 31, 2010, the Operating Partnership had three
credit facilities with total capacity of approximately
$1.6 billion.
The Operating Partnership has a $550.0 million (includes
Euros, Yen, British pounds sterling or U.S. dollar
denominated borrowings) unsecured revolving credit facility. The
Parent Company is a guarantor of the Operating
Partnerships obligations under the credit facility. The
facility can be increased up to $700.0 million upon certain
conditions. The rate on the borrowings is generally LIBOR plus a
margin, which was 42.5 basis points as of March 31,
2010, based on the Operating Partnerships long-term debt
rating, with an annual facility fee of 15.0 basis points.
If the

Operating Partnerships long-term debt ratings fall below
investment grade, the Operating Partnership will be unable to
request money market loans and borrowings in Euros, Yen or
British pounds sterling. The four-year credit facility includes
a multi-currency component, under which up to
$550.0 million can be drawn in Euros, Yen, British pounds
sterling or U.S. dollars. The Operating Partnership uses
the credit facility principally for acquisitions, funding
development activity and general working capital requirements.
As of March 31, 2010, the outstanding balance on this
credit facility was $93.0 million, which bore a weighted
average interest rate of 0.71%, and the remaining amount
available was $445.0 million, net of outstanding letters of
credit of $12.0 million, using the exchange rate in effect
on March 31, 2010. This facility had an original maturity
date of June 2010. Subsequent to quarter end, the Operating
Partnership exercised its option to extend the maturity date to
June 2011. This extension is subject to certain conditions.
AMB Japan Finance Y.K., a subsidiary of the Operating
Partnership, has a Yen-denominated unsecured revolving credit
facility with an initial borrowing limit of 55.0 billion
Yen, which, using the exchange rate in effect on March 31,
2010, equaled approximately $588.5 million
U.S. dollars and bore a weighted average interest rate of
0.68%. The Parent Company and the Operating Partnership
guarantee the obligations of AMB Japan Finance Y.K. under the
credit facility, as well as the obligations of any other entity
in which the Operating Partnership directly or indirectly owns
an ownership interest and which is selected from time to time to
be a borrower under and pursuant to the credit agreement. The
borrowers intend to use the proceeds from the facility to fund
the acquisition and development of properties and for other real
estate purposes in Japan, China and South Korea. Generally,
borrowers under the credit facility have the option to secure
all or a portion of the borrowings under the credit facility
with certain real estate assets or equity in entities holding
such real estate assets. The credit facility had an original
maturity date of June 2010. Subsequent to quarter end, the
Operating Partnership exercised its option to extend the
maturity date to June 2011. This extension is subject to
certain conditions. The rate on the borrowings is generally
TIBOR plus a margin, which was 42.5 basis points as of
March 31, 2010, based on the credit rating of the Operating
Partnerships long-term debt. In addition, there is an
annual facility fee, payable quarterly, which is based on the
credit rating of the Operating Partnerships long-term debt
and was 15.0 basis points of the outstanding commitments
under the facility as of March 31, 2010. As of
March 31, 2010, the outstanding balance on this credit
facility, using the exchange rate in effect on March 31,
2010, was $292.0 million, and the remaining amount
available was $296.5 million.
The Operating Partnership and certain of its wholly-owned
subsidiaries, each acting as a borrower, and the Parent Company
and the Operating Partnership, as guarantors, have a
$500.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility. The
Parent Company and the Operating Partnership guarantee the
obligations for such subsidiaries and other entities controlled
by the Operating Partnership that are selected by the Operating
Partnership from time to time to be borrowers under and pursuant
to the credit facility. Generally, borrowers under the credit
facility have the option to secure all or a portion of the
borrowings under the credit facility. The credit facility
includes a multi-currency component under which up to
$500.0 million can be drawn in U.S. dollars, Hong Kong
dollars, Singapore dollars, Canadian dollars, British pounds
sterling, and Euros with the ability to add Indian rupees. The
line, which matures in July 2011, carries a one-year
extension option, which the Operating Partnership may exercise
at its sole option so long as the Operating Partnerships
long-term debt rating is investment grade, among other things,
and can be increased up to $750.0 million upon certain
conditions and the payment of an extension fee equal to 0.15% of
the outstanding commitments. The rate on the borrowings is
generally LIBOR plus a margin, which was 60.0 basis points
as of March 31, 2010, based on the credit rating of the
Operating Partnerships senior unsecured long-term debt,
with an annual facility fee based on the credit rating of the
Operating Partnerships senior unsecured long-term debt. If
the Operating Partnerships long-term debt ratings fall
below current levels, its cost of debt will increase. If the
Operating Partnerships long-term debt ratings fall below
investment grade, the Operating Partnership will be unable to
request borrowings in any currency other than U.S. dollars.
The borrowers intend to use the proceeds from the facility to
fund the acquisition and development of properties and general
working capital requirements. As of March 31, 2010, the
outstanding balance on this credit facility, using the exchange
rates in effect at March 31, 2010,

NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
was approximately $331.0 million with a weighted average
interest rate of 0.86%, and the remaining amount available was
$169.0 million.
The above credit facilities contain affirmative covenants of the
Operating Partnership, including compliance with financial
reporting requirements and maintenance of specified financial
ratios, and negative covenants of the Operating Partnership,
including limitations on the incurrence of liens and limitations
on mergers or consolidations. The Operating Partnership was in
compliance with its financial covenants under each of these
credit agreements at March 31, 2010.
As of March 31, 2010, the Operating Partnership had
$153.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, held in
accounts managed by third party financial institutions,
consisting of invested cash and cash in the Operating
Partnerships operating accounts. In addition, the
Operating Partnership had $910.5 million available for
future borrowings under its three multicurrency lines of credit
at March 31, 2010. In the event that the Operating
Partnership does not have sufficient cash available to it
through its operations or under its lines of credit to continue
operating its business as usual, the Operating Partnership may
need to find alternative ways to increase its liquidity. Such
alternatives may include, without limitation, divesting itself
of properties; issuing the Operating Partnerships debt
securities; entering into leases with the Operating
Partnerships customers at lower rental rates or less than
optimal terms; entering into lease renewals with its existing
customers without an increase or with a decrease in rental rates
at turnover; or the Parent Company issuing equity and
contributing the net proceeds to the Operating Partnership.
If the long-term debt ratings of the Operating Partnership fall
below current levels, the borrowing cost of debt under the
Operating Partnerships unsecured credit facilities and
certain term loans will increase. In addition, if the long-term
debt ratings of the Operating Partnership fall below investment
grade, the Operating Partnership may be unable to request
borrowings in currencies other than U.S. dollars or
Japanese Yen, as applicable; however, the lack of other currency
borrowings does not affect the Operating Partnerships
ability to fully draw down under the credit facilities or term
loans. The loss of its ability to borrow in currencies other
than U.S. dollars or Japanese Yen could affect its ability
to optimally hedge its borrowings against foreign currency
exchange rate changes.
As of March 31, 2010, the scheduled maturities and
principal payments of the Operating Partnerships total
debt were as follows (dollars in thousands):

On November 10, 2009, the Parent Company purchased all
1,595,337 outstanding series D preferred units of AMB
Property II, L.P. from a third party in exchange for
2,880,281 shares of its common stock at a discount of
$9.8 million. The Operating Partnership issued 2,880,281
general partnership units to the Parent Company in exchange for
the 1,595,337 series D preferred units the Parent Company
purchased. |
The Operating Partnership has consolidated joint ventures that
have finite lives under the terms of the joint venture
agreements. As of March 31, 2010 and December 31,
2009, the aggregate book value of the joint venture
noncontrolling interests in the accompanying consolidated
balance sheets was approximately $291.3 million and
$289.9 million, respectively. The Operating Partnership
believes that the aggregate settlement value of these interests
was approximately $338.6 million at March 31, 2010 and
$336.8 million at December 31, 2009. However, there
can be no assurance that these amounts will be the aggregate
settlement value of the interests. The aggregate settlement
value is based on the estimated liquidation values of the assets
and liabilities and the resulting proceeds that the Operating
Partnership would distribute to its joint venture partners upon
dissolution, as required under the terms of the respective joint
venture agreements. There can be no assurance that the estimated
liquidation values of the assets and liabilities and the
resulting proceeds that the Operating Partnership distributes
upon dissolution will be the same as the actual liquidation
values of such assets, liabilities and proceeds distributed upon
dissolution. Subsequent changes to the estimated fair values of
the assets and liabilities of the consolidated joint ventures
will affect the Operating Partnerships estimate of the
aggregate settlement value. The joint venture agreements do not
limit the amount to which the noncontrolling joint venture
partners would be entitled in the event of liquidation of the
assets and liabilities and dissolution of the respective joint
ventures.

Includes $3.8 million of interest expense on loans from
co-investment venture partners for both the three months ended
March 31, 2010 and 2009. |
In accordance with guidance issued by the FASB related to the
consolidation of variable-interest entities, the Company has
performed an analysis of all of its joint venture entities to
determine whether they would qualify as variable-interest
entities (VIEs) and whether the joint ventures
should be consolidated or accounted for as an equity investment
in an unconsolidated joint venture. As a result of the
Companys qualitative assessment to determine whether these
joint venture entities are VIEs, the Company identified five
joint venture entities, owned in conjunction with the same joint
venture partner, which were variable-interest entities based
upon the criteria of having insufficient equity investment at
risk. Because these five joint ventures, collectively referred
to as the Five Ventures, have partnership and
management agreements with the same joint venture partner and
purposes that are nearly identical, the following disclosures
are made in the aggregate for all Five Ventures. These Five
Ventures have been formed as limited liability companies with
the sole purpose of acquiring, developing, improving,
maintaining, leasing, marketing and selling properties for
profit, with the majority of the business activities to be
financed by third-party debt. In determining whether there was
sufficient equity investment at risk, the Company evaluated the
individual balance sheets of the Five Ventures and compared the
equity balance available as of March 31, 2010 to the total
assets of the Five Ventures and evaluated the outstanding debt
amounts as of the same balance sheet date.
After making the determination that the Five Ventures were
variable interest entities, the Company performed an assessment
of which partner would be considered the primary beneficiary of
these entities and would be required to consolidate the Five
Ventures balance sheets and results of operations. This
assessment was based upon which entity (1) had the power to
direct matters that most significantly impact the activities of
the VIEs, and (2) had the obligation to absorb losses or
the right to receive benefits of the VIEs that could potentially
be significant to the VIE based upon the terms of the
partnership and management agreements of the Five Ventures. As
both the Company and the joint venture partner in the entities
had equal 50% ownership in the Five Ventures, and per the terms
of the partnership agreement, they would both have an equal
obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of
the VIEs. While the joint venture partner is designated as the
administrative member and has the full power to manage the
affairs and operations of the Five Ventures, the partnership and
management agreements require consent of both partners for any
major decisions, which include: the adoption and any subsequent
revision of the operating budget and business plan; the entry
into any significant construction, development and property
acquisition; any capital transaction including sale, financing
or refinancing of the joint venture property; and the entry into
or material modification to any lease of the joint venture
property. Based upon this understanding, the Company concluded
that both partners shared equal power in the significant
decisions of the Five Ventures, as well as the financial rights
and obligations, and therefore neither partner would consolidate
the Five Ventures. As such, the Company accounts for the Five
Ventures as an equity investment in unconsolidated joint
ventures.
The Company includes the following balances related to the Five
Ventures, as of March 31, 2010, in Investments in
unconsolidated joint ventures in the consolidated balance sheet
as of March 31, 2010:

Per the partnership agreements for the Five Ventures, the
Companys liability is limited to its investment in the
entities. The Company does not guarantee any third-party debt
held by these Five Ventures. Capital contributions to the Five
Ventures subsequent to the initial capital contribution require
the unanimous approval of both the Company and the joint venture
partner, and as of March 31, 2010, the Company has no
commitment to make additional contributions to the Five Ventures. |

Stockholders
Equity of the Parent Company

Holders of common limited partnership units of the Operating
Partnership and class B common limited partnership units of
AMB Property II, L.P. have the right to require the Operating
Partnership or AMB Property II, L.P., as applicable, to redeem
part or all of their common limited partnership units or
class B common limited partnership units, as applicable,
for cash (based upon the fair market value of an equivalent
number of shares of common stock of the Parent Company at the
time of redemption). The right of the holders of common limited
partnership units is subject to the Operating Partnership or AMB
Property II, L.P., in its respective sole and absolute
discretion, electing to have the Parent Company exchange those
common limited partnership units for shares of the Parent
Companys common stock, whether or not such shares are
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, on a
one-for-one
basis, subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, stock
dividends, issuance of certain rights, certain extraordinary
distributions and similar events. The redemption right is also
subject to the limits on ownership and transfer of common stock
set forth in the Parent Companys charter. With each
exchange of the Operating Partnerships common limited
partnership units for the Parent Companys common stock,
the Parent Companys percentage ownership in the Operating
Partnership will increase. The redemption right commences on or
after the first anniversary of a unitholder becoming a limited
partner of the Operating Partnership or of AMB Property II,
L.P., as applicable (or such other date agreed to by the
Operating Partnership or AMB Property II, L.P. and the unit
holder). During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the
Operating Partnership did not exchange any of its common limited
partnership units for shares of the Parent Companys common
stock.
The Parent Company has authorized 100,000,000 shares of
preferred stock for issuance, of which the following series were
designated as of March 31, 2010: 2,300,000 shares of
series L cumulative redeemable preferred, of which
2,000,000 are outstanding; 2,300,000 shares of
series M cumulative redeemable preferred, all of which are
outstanding; 3,000,000 shares of series O cumulative
redeemable preferred, all of which are outstanding; and
2,000,000 shares of series P cumulative redeemable
preferred, all of which are outstanding.
The series L, M, O and P preferred stock have preference
rights with respect to distributions and liquidation over the
common stock. Holders of the series L, M, O and P preferred
stock are not entitled to vote on any matters, except under
certain limited circumstances. In the event of a cumulative
arrearage equal to six quarterly dividends, holders of the
series L, M, O and P preferred stock will have the right to
elect two additional members to serve on the Parent
Companys board of directors until dividends have been paid
in full. At March 31, 2010, there were no dividends in
arrears. The Parent Company may issue additional series of
preferred stock ranking on a parity with the series L, M, O
and P preferred stock, but may not issue any preferred stock
senior to the series L, M, O and P preferred stock without
the consent of two-thirds of the holders of each of the
series L, M, O and P preferred stock. The series L, M,
O and P preferred stock have no stated maturity and are not
subject to mandatory redemption or any sinking fund. The
series L and M preferred stock are redeemable solely at the
option of the Parent Company, in whole or in part, at $25.00 per
share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends. The series O and
P preferred stock will be redeemable at the option of the Parent
Company on and after December 13, 2010 and August 25,
2011, respectively, in whole or in part, at $25.00 per share,
plus accrued and unpaid dividends.

As of March 31, 2010, the Parent Companys stock
incentive plans have approximately 4.0 million shares of
common stock available for issuance as either stock options or
restricted stock grants. The fair value of each option grant is
generally estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model. The Parent Company uses historical data to
estimate option exercise and forfeitures within the valuation
model. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility
of the Parent Companys stock. The risk-free rate for
periods within the expected life of the option is based on the
U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the
grant.

1,228,034 non-vested stock awards were outstanding under the
plans. There were 1,384,787 stock options granted, 77,394
options exercised, and 33,757 options forfeited during the three
months ended March 31, 2010. There were 689,287 restricted

period of 2.9 years. As of March 31, 2010, the Parent
Company had $11.3 million of total unrecognized
compensation cost related to unvested options granted under the
Parent Companys stock incentive plans which is expected to
be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.9 years.
During the first quarter of 2010, the Parent Company issued
85,144 restricted share units (RSUs). RSUs are
granted to certain employees at a rate of one common share per
RSU and are valued on the grant date based upon the market price
of a common share on that date. The value of the RSUs granted is
recognized as compensation expense over the applicable vesting
period, which is generally four years. Holders of RSUs do not
receive voting rights, nor are they eligible to receive
dividends declared on outstanding shares of common stock, during
the vesting period. Shares of common stock equivalent to the
number of RSUs granted are reserved for issuance until vesting
of the RSUs has completed. The weighted-average grant date fair
value of RSUs granted during the three months ended
March 31, 2010 was $22.14.

AMB Property II, L.P. have the right to require the Operating
Partnership or AMB Property II, L.P., as applicable, to redeem
part or all of their common limited partnership units or
class B common limited partnership units, as applicable,
for cash (based upon the fair market value of an equivalent
number of shares of common stock of the Parent Company at the
time of redemption). The right of the holders of common limited
partnership units is subject to the Operating Partnership or AMB

dividends, issuance of certain rights, certain extraordinary
distributions and similar events. The redemption right is also
subject to the limits on ownership and transfer of common stock
set forth in the Parent Companys charter. With each
exchange of the Operating Partnerships common limited
partnership units for the Parent Companys common stock,
the Parent Companys percentage ownership in the Operating
Partnership will increase. The redemption right commences on or
after the first anniversary of a unitholder becoming a limited
partner of the Operating Partnership or of AMB Property II,
L.P., as applicable (or such other date agreed to by the
Operating Partnership or AMB Property II, L.P. and the unit
holder).
The series L, M, O and P preferred units have preference
rights with respect to distributions and liquidation over the
common units. The series L, M, O and P preferred units are

O and P preferred stock are redeemed by the Parent Company. The
series L, M, O and P preferred stock have no stated
maturity and are not subject to mandatory redemption or any
sinking fund. Any such redemption would be for a purchase price
equivalent to that of the Parent Companys preferred stock.
The Parent Companys series L and M preferred stock
are redeemable solely at the option of the Parent Company, in
whole or in part, at $25.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid
dividends. The series O and P preferred stock will be
redeemable solely at the option of the Parent Company on and
after December 13, 2010 and August 25, 2011,
respectively, in whole or in part, at $25.00 per share, plus
accrued and unpaid dividends.
The Operating Partnership has classified the preferred and
common units held by outside parties and by the Parent Company
as permanent equity based on the following considerations:
|
|
|
|
|
The Operating Partnership determined that settlement in the
Parent Companys stock is equivalent to settlement in
equity of the Operating Partnership. The Parent Companys
only significant asset is its interest in the Operating
Partnership and the Parent Company conducts substantially all of
its business through the Operating Partnership. The Parent
Companys stock is the economic equivalent of the Operating
Partnerships corresponding units. The Company has
concluded that a redemption and issuance of shares in exchange
for units does not represent a delivery of assets.

In accordance with the guidance for Contracts in Entitys
Own Equity, the Operating Partnership, as the issuer of the
units, controls the settlement options of the redemption of the
units (shares or cash). Pursuant to an assignment agreement, the
Parent Company has transferred to the Operating Partnership the
right to elect to acquire some or all of any tendered units from
the tendering partner in exchange for stock of the Parent
Company. The unitholder has no control over whether it receives
cash or Parent Company stock. There are no factors outside the
issuers control that could impact those settlement options
and there are no provisions that could require cash settlement
upon redemption of units. The Operating Partnership units that
are held by the Parent Company are redeemable only to maintain
the 1:1 ratio of outstanding shares of the Parent Company to the
outstanding units of the Operating Partnership and to facilitate
the transfer of cash to the Parent Company from the Operating
Partnership upon redemption of Parent Company stock. The Parent
Company and the Operating Partnership are structured and
operated as one interrelated, consolidated business under a
single management. The decision to pay cash or have the Parent
Company issue registered or unregistered shares of stock is made
by a single management team acting for both the Operating
Partnership and the Parent Company and causing the entities to
act in concert.
|
|
|
|
Management has concluded that there is no conflict in fiduciary
duty or interest with respect to the decision to settle a
redemption request in cash or common shares of the Parent
Company.
|
As of March 31, 2010, the Operating Partnership had
outstanding 149,715,804 common general partnership units;
2,119,928 common limited partnership units; 2,000,000 6.5%
series L cumulative redeemable preferred units; 2,300,000
6.75% series M cumulative redeemable preferred units;
3,000,000 7.00% series O cumulative redeemable preferred
units; and 2,000,000 6.85% series P cumulative redeemable
preferred units.

On November 10, 2009, the Parent Company purchased all
1,595,337 outstanding series D preferred units of AMB
Property II, L.P. in exchange for 2,880,281 shares of its
common stock at a discount of $9.8 million. The Operating
Partnership issued 2,880,281 general partnership units to the
Parent Company in exchange for the 1,595,337 series D
preferred units the Parent Company purchased. |
For each share of common stock the Parent Company issues
pursuant to the Parent Company and Operating Partnerships
stock incentive plans, the Operating Partnership will issue a
corresponding common partnership unit to the Parent Company. As
of March 31, 2010, the stock incentive plans have
approximately 4.0 million shares of common stock available
for issuance as either stock options or restricted stock grants.
The fair value of each option grant is generally estimated at
the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
The Operating Partnership uses historical data to estimate
option exercise and forfeitures within the valuation model.
Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of the
Parent Companys stock. The risk-free rate for periods
within the expected life of the option is based on the
U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the
grant.
The following table presents the assumptions and fair values for
grants made during 2010:

As of March 31, 2010, approximately 9,381,333 options and
1,228,034 non-vested stock awards were outstanding under the
plans. There were 1,384,787 stock options granted, 77,394
options exercised, and 33,757 options forfeited during the three
months ended March 31, 2010. There were 689,287 restricted
stock awards made, 374,555 non-vested stock awards that vested
and 5,451 non-vested stock awards that were forfeited during the
three months ended March 31, 2010. The grant date fair
value of restricted stock awards range as of the grant dates of
the awards issued during the three months ended March 31,
2010 was $22.14-$25.37. The unamortized expense for restricted
stock as of March 31, 2010 was $29.3 million which is
expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of
2.9 years. As of March 31, 2010, the Operating
Partnership had $11.3 million of total unrecognized
compensation cost related to unvested options granted under the
Operating Partnerships stock incentive plans which is
expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of
1.9 years.
During the first quarter of 2010, the Parent Company issued
85,144 restricted share units (RSUs). RSUs are
granted to certain employees at a rate of one common share per
RSU and are valued on the grant date based upon the market price
of a common share on that date. The value of the RSUs granted is
recognized as compensation expense over the applicable vesting
period, which is generally four years. Holders of RSUs do not
receive voting rights, nor are they eligible to receive
dividends declared on outstanding shares of common stock, during
the vesting period. Shares of common stock equivalent to the
number of RSUs granted are reserved for issuance until vesting
of the

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted a policy
which clarifies that share-based payment awards that entitle
their holders to receive nonforfeitable dividends before vesting
should be considered participating securities. As participating
securities, these instruments should be included in the
computation of earnings per share (EPS) using the
two-class method.
The Parent Company had no dilutive stock options outstanding for
both the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009. Such
dilution was computed using the treasury stock method. The
computation of the Parent Companys basic and diluted EPS

Property net operating income (NOI) is defined as
rental revenues, including reimbursements, less property
operating expenses. NOI excludes depreciation, amortization,
general and administrative expenses, restructuring charges, real
estate impairment losses, development profits (losses), gains
(losses) from sale or contribution of real estate interests, and
interest expense. The Company believes that net income, as
defined by GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measure.
However, NOI is a useful supplemental measure calculated to help
investors understand the Companys operating performance,
excluding the effects of costs and expenses which are not
related to the performance of the assets. NOI is widely used by
the real estate industry as a useful supplemental measure, which
helps investors compare the Companys operating performance
with that of other companies. Real estate impairment losses have
been excluded in deriving NOI because the Company does not
consider its impairment losses to be a property operating
expense. The Company believes that the exclusion of |

STATEMENTS (Continued)
|
|
|
|
|
impairment losses from NOI is a common methodology used in the
real estate industry. Real estate impairment losses relate to
the changing values of the Companys assets but do not
reflect the current operating performance of the assets with
respect to their revenues or expenses. The Companys real
estate impairment losses are non-cash charges which represent
the write down in the value of assets when estimated fair value
over the holding period is lower than current carrying value.
The impairment charges were principally a result of increases in
estimated capitalization rates and deterioration in market
conditions that adversely impacted underlying real estate
values. Therefore, the impairment charges are not related to the
current performance of the Companys real estate operations
and should be excluded from its calculation of NOI. |
In addition, the Company believes that NOI helps investors
compare the operating performance of its real estate as compared
to other companies. While NOI is a relevant and widely used
measure of operating performance of real estate investment
trusts, it does not represent cash flow from operations or net
income as defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an
alternative to those measures in evaluating the Companys
liquidity or operating performance. NOI also does not reflect
general and administrative expenses, interest expenses, real
estate impairment losses, depreciation and amortization costs,
capital expenditures and leasing costs, or trends in development
and construction activities that could materially impact the
Companys results from operations. Further, the
Companys computation of NOI may not be comparable to that
of other real estate companies, as they may use different
methodologies for calculating NOI. For a reconciliation of NOI
to net income, see the table below.
The following table is a reconciliation from NOI to reported net
loss, a financial measure under GAAP (dollars in thousands):

Commitments
and Contingencies
|
Commitments
Lease Commitments. The Company has entered
into operating ground leases on certain land parcels, primarily
on-tarmac facilities and office space with remaining lease terms
of 1 to 79 years. Buildings and improvements subject to
ground leases are depreciated ratably over the lesser of the
terms of the related leases or 40 years.
Standby Letters of Credit. As of
March 31, 2010, the Company had provided approximately
$14.6 million in letters of credit, of which
$12.0 million was provided under the Operating
Partnerships $550.0 million unsecured credit
facility. The letters of credit were required to be issued under
certain ground lease provisions, bank guarantees and other
commitments.
Guarantees and Contribution
Obligations. Excluding parent guarantees
associated with debt or contribution obligations as discussed in
Notes 5, 6 and 9 as of March 31, 2010, the Company had
outstanding guarantees and contribution obligations in the
aggregate amount of $391.5 million as described below.
As of March 31, 2010, the Company had outstanding bank
guarantees in the amount of $0.4 million used to secure
contingent obligations, primarily obligations under development
and purchase agreements. As of March 31, 2010, the Company
also guaranteed $45.4 million and $85.1 million on
outstanding loans on six of its consolidated joint ventures and
four of its unconsolidated joint ventures, respectively.
Also, the Company has entered into contribution agreements with
its unconsolidated co-investment ventures. These contribution
agreements require the Company to make additional capital
contributions to the applicable co-investment venture upon
certain defaults by the co-investment venture of certain of its
debt obligations to the lenders. Such additional capital
contributions will cover all or part of the applicable
co-investment ventures debt obligation and may be greater
than the Companys share of the co-investment
ventures debt obligation or the value of its share of any
property securing such debt. The Companys contribution
obligations under these agreements will be reduced by the
amounts recovered by the lender and the fair market value of the
property, if any, used to secure the debt and obtained by the
lender upon default. The Companys potential obligations
under these contribution agreements totaled $260.6 million
as of March 31, 2010.
Performance and Surety Bonds. As of
March 31, 2010, the Company had outstanding performance and
surety bonds in an aggregate amount of $5.1 million. These
bonds were issued in connection with certain of its development
projects and were posted to guarantee certain property tax
obligations and the construction of certain real property
improvements and infrastructure. The performance and surety
bonds are renewable and expire upon the payment of the property
taxes due or the completion of the improvements and
infrastructure.
Promote Interests and Other Contractual
Obligations. Upon the achievement of certain
return thresholds and the occurrence of certain events, the
Company may be obligated to make payments to certain of its
joint venture partners pursuant to the terms and provisions of
their contractual agreements with the Operating Partnership.
From time to time in the normal course of the Companys
business, the Company enters into various contracts with third
parties that may obligate it to make payments, pay promotes or
perform other obligations upon the occurrence of certain events.
Contingencies
Litigation. In the normal course of business,
from time to time, the Company may be involved in legal actions
relating to the ownership and operations of its properties.
Management does not expect that the liabilities, if any, that
may ultimately result from such legal actions will have a
material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position,
results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

STATEMENTS (Continued)
Environmental Matters. The Company monitors
its properties for the presence of hazardous or toxic
substances. The Company is not aware of any environmental
liability with respect to the properties that would have a
material adverse effect on the Companys business, assets
or results of operations. However, there can be no assurance
that such a material environmental liability does not exist. The
existence of any such material environmental liability would
have an adverse effect on the Companys results of
operations and cash flow. The Company carries environmental
insurance and believes that the policy terms, conditions, limits
and deductibles are adequate and appropriate under the
circumstances, given the relative risk of loss, the cost of such
coverage and current industry practice.
General Uninsured Losses. The Company carries
property and rental loss, liability, flood and terrorism
insurance. The Company believes that the policy terms,
conditions, limits and deductibles are adequate and appropriate
under the circumstances, given the relative risk of loss, the
cost of such coverage and current industry practice. In
addition, a significant number of the Companys properties
are located in areas that are subject to earthquake activity. As
a result, the Company has obtained limited earthquake insurance
on those properties. There are, however, certain types of
extraordinary losses, such as those due to acts of war, that may
be either uninsurable or not economically insurable. Although
the Company has obtained coverage for certain acts of terrorism,
with policy specifications and insured limits that it believes
are commercially reasonable, there can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to collect under such policies. Should an
uninsured loss occur, the Company could lose its investment in,
and anticipated profits and cash flows from, a property.
Captive Insurance Company. The Company has a
wholly owned captive insurance company, Arcata National
Insurance Ltd. (Arcata), which provides insurance coverage for
all or a portion of losses below the attachment point of the
Companys third-party insurance policies. The captive
insurance company is one element of the Companys overall
risk management program. The Company capitalized Arcata in
accordance with the applicable regulatory requirements. Arcata
establishes annual premiums based on projections derived from
the past loss experience at the Companys properties. Like
premiums paid to third-party insurance companies, premiums paid
to Arcata may be reimbursed by customers pursuant to specific
lease terms. Through this structure, the Company believes that
it has more comprehensive insurance coverage at an overall lower
cost than would otherwise be available in the market.

Derivatives
and Hedging Activities
|
Risk
Management Objective of Using Derivatives
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its
business operations and economic conditions. The Company
principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business
and operational risks through management of its core business
activities. The Company manages economic risks, including
interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing
the amount, sources, and duration of its debt funding and the
use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the
Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage
exposures that arise from business activities that result in the
receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts,
the value of which are determined by interest rates. The
Companys derivative financial instruments are used to
manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the
Companys known or expected cash receipts and its known or
expected cash payments principally related to the Companys
borrowings. The Companys derivative financial instruments
in effect at March 31, 2010 were two interest rate swaps
and two interest rate caps hedging cash flows of variable rate
borrowings based on U.S. LIBOR.
Certain of the Companys foreign operations expose the
Company to fluctuations of foreign interest rates and exchange
rates. These fluctuations may impact the value of the
Companys cash receipts and payments in terms of the
Companys functional currency. The Company enters into
derivative financial instruments to protect the value or fix the
amount of certain obligations in terms of its functional
currency, the U.S. dollar. At March 31, 2010, the
Company had four currency forward contracts hedging intercompany
loans.

Cash Flow
Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
The Companys objectives in using interest rate derivatives
are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its
exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this
objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps and
caps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy.
Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the
receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange
for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the
agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.
Interest rate caps designated as cash flow hedges involve the
receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty if interest
rates rise above the strike rate on the contract in exchange for
an upfront premium.
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of
derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is
recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income as a
separate component of stockholders equity for the Parent
Company and within partners capital for the Operating
Partnership and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in
the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects
earnings. During the three months ended ended March 31,
2010, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash
flows associated with existing variable-rate borrowings.
Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive (loss)
income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest
expense as interest payments are made on the Companys
variable-rate borrowings. For the twelve months from
March 31, 2010, the Company estimates that an additional
$1.7 million will be reclassified as an increase to
interest expense.
As of March 31, 2010, the Company had the following
outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as
cash flow hedges of interest rate risk:

Non-designated
Hedges
Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and are
used to manage the Companys exposure to identified risks,
such as foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, but do not
meet the strict hedge accounting requirements of the accounting
policy for derivative instruments and hedging activities. At
March 31, 2010, the Company had four foreign currency
forward contracts hedging intercompany loans and one interest
rate cap hedging a construction loan and other variable rate
borrowings which were not designated as hedges. Changes in the
fair value of derivatives not designated in hedging
relationships are recorded directly in earnings and are offset
by changes in the fair value of the underlying assets or
liabilities being hedged, which are also recorded in earnings.
As of March 31, 2010, the Company had the following
outstanding derivatives that were non-designated hedges:

Credit-risk-related
Contingent Features
In order to limit the financial risks associated with derivative
applications, the Company requires rigorous counterparty
selection criteria and agreements to minimize counterparty risk
for
over-the-counter
derivatives. For the Companys derivatives, the
counterparty is typically the same entity as, or an affiliate
of, the lender.
The Companys agreements with its derivative counterparties
contain default and termination provisions related to the
Companys debt. If certain of the Companys
indebtedness (excluding its corporate lines of credit and
intra-company indebtedness) in an amount in excess of three
percent of the Companys equity, as determined at the end
of the last fiscal year, becomes, or becomes capable of being
declared, due and payable earlier than it otherwise would have
been, then the Company could also be declared in default on its
derivative obligations. Also, if an event of default occurs
under the Companys corporate lines of credit and, as a
result, amounts outstanding under such lines are declared or
become due and payable in an amount in excess of three percent
of the Companys equity, as determined at the end of the
last fiscal year, it shall constitute an additional termination
event under the derivative contracts.
In April 2010, the Parent Company completed the issuance of
approximately 18.2 million shares of its common stock at a
price of $27.50 per share for proceeds of approximately
$479.0 million, net of discounts, commissions and estimated
transaction expenses of approximately $18.1 million. The
net proceeds from the offering were contributed to the Operating
Partnership in exchange for the issuance of 18.2 million
general partnership units to the Parent Company.
In April 2010, the Company made an additional equity investment
of $50 million into AMB U.S. Logistics Fund, L.P.,
increasing the Companys ownership to approximately 34% as
of the end of April. In addition, third-party investors also
contributed $29 million of equity to AMB
U.S. Logistics Fund, L.P. in April 2010.

Item 2.
|
Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
|
Some of the information included in this quarterly report on
Form 10-Q
contains forward-looking statements, such as those related to
our capital resources, portfolio performance, results of
operations and managements beliefs and expectations, which
are made pursuant to the safe-harbor provisions of
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended. Because these forward-looking statements involve
numerous risks and uncertainties, there are important factors
that could cause the companys actual results to differ
materially from those in the forward-looking statements, and you
should not rely on the forward-looking statements as predictions
of future events. The events or circumstances reflected in the
forward-looking statements might not occur. You can identify
forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking
terminology such as believes, expects,
may, will, should,
seeks, approximately,
intends, plans, forecasting,
pro forma, estimates or
anticipates, or the negative of these words and
phrases, or similar words or phrases. You can also identify
forward-looking statements by discussions of strategy, plans or
intentions. Forward-looking statements should not be read as
guarantees of future performance or results, and will not
necessarily be accurate indicators of whether, or the time at
which, such performance or results will be achieved. There is no
assurance that the events or circumstances reflected in
forward-looking statements will occur or be achieved.
Forward-looking statements are necessarily dependent on
assumptions, data or methods that may be incorrect or imprecise
and the company may not be able to realize them.
The following factors, among others, apply to the
companys business as a whole and could cause its actual
results and future events to differ materially from those set
forth or contemplated in the forward-looking statements:
|
|
|
|
|
changes in general economic conditions in California, the
U.S. or globally (including financial market fluctuations),
global trade or in the real estate sector (including risks
relating to decreasing real estate valuations and impairment
charges);
|
|
|
|
risks associated with using debt to fund the companys
business activities, including re-financing and interest rate
risks;
|
|
|
|
the companys failure to obtain, renew, or extend
necessary financing or access the debt or equity markets;
|
|
|
|
the companys failure to maintain its current credit
agency ratings or comply with its debt covenants;
|
|
|
|
risks related to the companys obligations in the event
of certain defaults under co-investment venture and other
debt;
|
|
|
|
risks associated with equity and debt securities financings
and issuances (including the risk of dilution);
|
|
|
|
defaults on or non-renewal of leases by customers or renewal
at lower than expected rent;
|
|
|
|
difficulties in identifying properties, portfolios of
properties, or interests in real-estate related entities or
platforms to acquire and in effecting acquisitions on
advantageous terms and the failure of acquisitions to perform as
the company expects;
|
|
|
|
unknown liabilities acquired in connection with acquired
properties, portfolios of properties, or interests in
real-estate related entities;
|
|
|
|
the companys failure to successfully integrate acquired
properties and operations;
|
|
|
|
risks and uncertainties affecting property development,
redevelopment and value-added conversion (including construction
delays, cost overruns, the companys inability to obtain
necessary permits and financing, the companys inability to
lease properties at all or at favorable rents and terms, and
public opposition to these activities);
|
|
|
|
the companys failure to set up additional funds,
attract additional investment in existing funds or to contribute
properties to its co-investment ventures due to such factors as
its inability to acquire, develop, or lease properties that meet
the investment criteria of such ventures, or the co-investment
ventures inability to access debt and equity capital to
pay for property contributions or their allocation of available
capital to cover other capital requirements;
|
|
|
|
risks and uncertainties relating to the disposition of
properties to third parties and the companys ability to
effect such transactions on advantageous terms and to timely
reinvest proceeds from any such dispositions;
|
43
|
|
|
|
|
risks of doing business internationally and global expansion,
including unfamiliarity with new markets and currency risks;
|
|
|
|
risks of changing personnel and roles;
|
|
|
|
losses in excess of the companys insurance coverage;
|
|
|
|
changes in local, state and federal regulatory requirements,
including changes in real estate and zoning laws;
|
|
|
|
increases in real property tax rates;
|
|
|
|
risks associated with the companys tax structuring;
|
|
|
|
increases in interest rates and operating costs or greater
than expected capital expenditures; and
|
|
|
|
environmental uncertainties and risks related to natural
disasters.
|
In addition, if the parent company fails to qualify and
maintain its status as a real estate investment trust under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, then the parent
companys actual results and future events could differ
materially from those set forth or contemplated in the
forward-looking statements.
The companys success also depends upon economic trends
generally, various market conditions and fluctuations and those
other risk factors discussed under the heading Risk
Factors and elsewhere in the Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for AMB Property Corporation and AMB Property, L.P. for the year
ended December 31, 2009, and any amendments thereto. The
company cautions you not to place undue reliance on
forward-looking statements, which reflect the companys
analysis only and speak as of the date of this report or as of
the dates indicated in the statements. All of the companys
forward-looking statements, including those in this report, are
qualified in their entirety by this statement. The company
assumes no obligation to update or supplement forward-looking
statements.
The company uses the terms industrial properties or
industrial buildings to describe the various types
of industrial properties in its portfolio and uses these terms
interchangeably with the following: logistics facilities,
centers or warehouses, High Throughput
Distribution®
(HTD®)
facilities; or any combination of these terms. The company uses
the term owned and managed to describe assets in
which it has at least a 10% ownership interest, for which it is
the property or asset manager and which it currently intends to
hold for the long term. The company uses the term joint
venture to describe all joint ventures, including
co-investment ventures with real estate developers, other real
estate operators, or institutional investors where the company
may or may not have control, act as the manager
and/or
developer, earn asset management distributions or fees, or earn
incentive distributions or promote interests. In certain cases,
the company might provide development, leasing, property
management
and/or
accounting services, for which it may receive compensation. The
company uses the term co-investment venture to
describe joint ventures with institutional investors, managed by
the company, from which the company typically receives
acquisition fees for acquisitions, portfolio and asset
management distributions or fees, as well as incentive
distributions or promote interests. Unless otherwise indicated,
managements discussion and analysis applies to both the
operating partnership and the parent company.

square meters) in 48 markets within 15 countries. The company
invests in properties located predominantly in the infill
submarkets of its targeted markets. The companys portfolio
is comprised of High Throughput
Distribution®
facilities industrial properties built for speed and
located near airports, seaports and ground transportation
systems.
The approximately 155.7 million square feet as of
March 31, 2010 included:
|
|
|
|
|
134.8 million square feet (principally, warehouse
distribution buildings) on an owned and managed basis, which
includes investments held on a consolidated basis or through
unconsolidated joint ventures, that were 90.5% leased;
|
|
|
|
13.4 million square feet in its development portfolio,
including approximately 9.7 million square feet in 34
development projects that are complete and in the process of
stabilization and approximately 3.7 million square feet in
nine development projects under construction;
|
|
|
|
7.4 million square feet in 46 industrial operating
buildings in unconsolidated joint ventures in which the company
has investments but does not manage; and
|
|
|
|
152,000 square feet through a ground lease, which is the
location of its global headquarters.
|
The companys business is operated primarily through the
operating partnership. As of March 31, 2010, the parent
company owned an approximate 97.8% general partnership interest
in the operating partnership, excluding preferred units. As the
sole general partner of the operating partnership, the parent
company has the full, exclusive and complete responsibility for
and discretion in its
day-to-day
management and control.
The parent company is a self-administered and self-managed real
estate investment trust and it expects that it has qualified,
and will continue to qualify, as a real estate investment trust
for federal income tax purposes beginning with the year ended
December 31, 1997. As a self-administered and self-managed
real estate investment trust, the companys own employees
perform its corporate administrative and management functions,
rather than the company relying on an outside manager for these
services. The company believes that real estate is fundamentally
a local business and is best operated by local teams in each of
its markets. As a vertically integrated company, the company
actively manages its portfolio of properties. In select markets,
the company may, from time to time, establish relationships with
third-party real estate management firms, brokers and developers
that provide some property-level administrative and management
services under the companys direction.
The companys global headquarters are located at Pier 1,
Bay 1, San Francisco, California 94111; the companys
telephone number is
(415) 394-9000.
The companys other principal office locations are in
Amsterdam, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, Mexico City, Shanghai,
Singapore and Tokyo. As of March 31, 2010, the company
employed 533 individuals.
Investment
Strategy
The companys investment strategy focuses on providing
distribution space to customers whose businesses are tied to
global trade and depend on the efficient movement of goods
through the global supply chain. The companys properties
are primarily located in the worlds busiest distribution
markets featuring large, supply-constrained infill locations
with dense populations and proximity to seaports, airports and
major freeway interchanges. When measured by annualized base
rent, on an owned and managed basis, a substantial majority of
the companys portfolio of industrial properties is located
in its target markets and much of this is in infill submarkets.
Infill locations are characterized by supply constraints on the
availability of land for competing projects as well as physical,
political or economic barriers to new development. The company
believes that its facilities are essential to creating
efficiencies in the supply chain and its business encompasses a
blend of real estate, global logistics and infrastructure.
45
In its target markets, the company focuses on
HTD®
facilities, industrial properties designed to facilitate the
rapid distribution of its customers products rather than
the long term storage of goods. The companys investment
focus on
HTD®
assets is based on what it believes to be a continuing global
trend toward lower inventory levels and expedited supply chains.
HTD®
facilities generally have a variety of physical and locational
characteristics that allow for the rapid transport of goods from
point to point. These physical characteristics could include
numerous dock doors, shallower building depths, fewer columns,
large truck courts and more space for trailer parking. The
company believes that these building characteristics help its
customers to reduce their costs and become more efficient in
their delivery systems. The locational characteristics feature
large, supply-constrained infill locations with dense
populations and proximity to seaports, airports and major
freeway interchanges. The companys customers comprise
logistics, freight forwarding and air-express companies with
time-sensitive needs that value facilities that are proximate to
transportation infrastructure.
The company believes that changes in global trade have been a
primary driver of demand for industrial real estate for decades,
as the correlation between industrial demand and
U.S. imports and exports is approximately 80%. The company
has observed that demand for industrial real estate is further
influenced by the long-term relationship between trade and GDP.
Trade and GDP are closely interrelated as higher levels of
investment, production and consumption within a globalized
country are consistent with increased levels of imports and
exports. As the world produces and consumes more, the company
believes that the volume of global trade will continue to
increase at a rate well in excess of global GDP. International
Monetary Fund (the IMF) forecasts indicated that
global trade fell by 10.7% in 2009, the steepest decline in
modern history. This compares to a forecasted decline of only
0.6% in global GDP. The IMFs most recent forecasts for
U.S. and global GDP growth in 2010 are 3.1% and 4.2%,
respectively, which the company believes should result in a
significant rebound in trade and industrial real estate demand.
Primary
Sources of Revenue and Earnings
The primary source of the companys core earnings is
revenues received from its real estate operations and private
capital business. The principal contributor of its core earnings
is rent received from customers under long-term (generally three
to ten years) operating leases at its properties, including
reimbursements from customers for certain operating costs and
asset management fees. The company also generates core earnings
from its private capital business, which include priority
distributions, acquisition and development fees, promote
interests and incentive distributions from its co-investment
ventures. The company may generate additional earnings from the
disposition of assets in its
development-for-sale
and value-added conversion programs as well as from land sales.
Long-Term
Growth Strategies
The company believes that its long-term growth will be driven by
its ability to:
|
|
|
|
|
maintain and increase occupancy rates
and/or
increase rental rates at its properties;
|
|
|
|
raise third-party equity and grow its earnings from its private
capital business from the acquisition of new properties or
through the possible contribution of properties;
|
|
|
|
acquire industrial real estate with total returns above the
companys cost of capital; and
|
|
|
|
develop properties profitably and either to hold or to sell
these development properties to third parties.
|
Growth
through Operations
The company seeks to generate long-term internal growth by
maintaining a high occupancy rate at its properties, by
controlling expenses and through contractual rent increases on
existing space and thus capitalizing on the economies of scale
inherent in owning, operating and growing a large, global
portfolio. The company actively manages its portfolio by
establishing leasing strategies and negotiating lease terms,
pricing, and level and timing of property improvements. With
respect to its leasing strategies, the company takes a long-term
view to ensure that it maximizes the value of its real estate.
As the company continues to work through a challenging operating
environment and to provide flexibility to its customers, the
company evaluates and adjusts its leasing strategies for market
terms and leasing rates, which may include shorter leasing
terms. The company believes that its
46
long-standing
focus on customer relationships and ability to provide global
solutions for a well-diversified customer base in the logistics,
shipping, and air cargo industries will enable it to capitalize
on opportunities as they arise.
The company believes that the strategic locations within its
portfolio, the experience of its cycle-tested operations team
and its ability to respond quickly to the needs of its customers
provides a competitive advantage in leasing. The company
believes that its regular maintenance programs, capital
expenditure programs, energy management and sustainability
programs create cost efficiencies that provide benefit to it and
its customers.
Growth
through Co-Investments
The company, through AMB Capital Partners, LLC, its private
capital group, was one of the pioneers of the real estate
investment trust (REIT) industrys co-investment model and
has more than 26 years of experience in asset management
and fund formation. The company co-invests in properties with
private capital investors through partnerships, limited
liability companies or other joint ventures. The company has a
direct and long-standing relationship with institutional
investors. Nearly 60% of the companys owned and managed
operating portfolio is held through its eight co-investment
ventures. The company tailors industrial portfolios to
investors specific needs in separate or commingled
accounts and deploys capital in both close-ended and open-ended
structures, while providing complete portfolio management and
financial reporting services. Generally, the company is the
largest investor in its funds and owns a
10-50%
interest in its co-investment ventures. The company believes
that its significant ownership in each of its funds provides a
strong alignment of its interest with its co-investment
partners interests.
The company believes that its co-investment program with
private-capital investors will continue to serve as a source of
revenues and capital for new investments. In anticipation of the
formation of future co-investment ventures, the company may also
hold acquired and newly developed properties for contribution to
such future co-investment ventures. The company may make
additional investments through its existing co-investment
ventures or new co-investment ventures in the future and
presently plans to do so. The company is in various stages of
discussions with prospective investors to attract new capital to
take advantage of potential opportunities and these capital
raising activities may include the formation of new joint
ventures. Such transactions, if the company completes them, may
be material individually or in aggregate.
Growth
through Acquisitions and Capital Redeployment
The companys acquisition experience and its network of
property management, leasing and acquisition resources should
continue to provide opportunities for growth. In addition to its
internal resources, the company has long-term relationships with
lenders, leasing and investment sales brokers, as well as
third-party local property management firms, which may give it
access to additional acquisition opportunities because such
managers frequently market properties on behalf of sellers. The
company is actively monitoring its target markets and may seek
opportunities to selectively acquire high-quality, well-located
industrial real estate. The company strives to enhance the
quality of its portfolio through acquisitions that are accretive
to the companys net asset value and its earnings. In
addition, the company seeks to redeploy capital from the sale of
non-strategic assets into properties that better fit its current
investment focus.
The company is generally engaged in various stages of
negotiations for a number of acquisitions, dispositions and
other transactions, some of which may be significant, that may
include, but are not limited to, individual properties, large
multi-property portfolios and platforms or property owning or
real estate-related entities.
Growth
through Development
The companys development business consists of conventional
development,
build-to-suit
development, redevelopment, value-added conversions and land
sales. Despite the cyclical downturn in the U.S. and global
economy, the company believes that, over the long term, customer
demand for new industrial space in strategic markets tied to
global trade will continue to outpace supply, most notably in
major gateway markets in Asia, Europe and Brazil. The company
believes that the development, redevelopment and expansion of
well-located, high-quality industrial properties provide
attractive investment opportunities at higher rates of return,
due to the development
47
risk, than may be obtained from the purchase of existing
properties. Through the deployment of its in-house development
and redevelopment expertise, the company seeks to create value
both through new construction and the acquisition and management
of redevelopment opportunities. New developments, redevelopments
and value-added conversions require significant management
attention, and development and redevelopment may require
significant capital investment, to maximize their returns. The
company pursues development projects directly and in
co-investment ventures and development joint ventures, providing
it with the flexibility to pursue development projects
independently or in partnerships, depending on market
conditions, submarkets or building sites and availability of
capital. Completed development and redevelopment properties are
held in its owned and managed portfolio, contributed to
co-investment ventures or sold to third parties.
The company believes that its long-standing focus on infill
locations creates a unique opportunity to enhance value through
the conversion of select industrial properties to higher and
better uses. Value-added conversion projects generally involve a
significant enhancement or a change in use of the property from
an industrial facility to a higher and better use, including use
as research & development, office, residential,
retail, or manufacturing properties. Activities required to
prepare the property for conversion to a higher and better use
may include rezoning, redesigning, reconstructing and
retenanting. The sales price of a value-added conversion project
is generally based on the underlying land value, reflecting its
ultimate higher and better use and, as such, little to no
residual value is ascribed to the industrial building.
Generally, the company expects to sell to third parties these
value-added conversion projects at some point in the
re-entitlement and conversion process, thus recognizing the
enhanced value of the underlying land that supports the
propertys repurposed use. The company believes that its
global market presence and expertise will enable it to generate
and capitalize on a diverse range of development opportunities
over the long term.
The companys development team has experience in real
estate development, both with the company and with local,
national or international development firms. Although the
company has reduced its development staff in correlation to
reduced levels of development activity, the company has retained
certain key investment and development personnel in its most
productive platforms around the globe to preserve its long-term
growth potential. This core development team possesses
multidisciplinary backgrounds that allows for the completion of
the build-out of the companys development pipeline, as
well as the temporary deployment of some of the team members in
leasing, operations and customer service, as it completes the
build-out and
lease-up of
its current development pipeline.

Consolidated Financial Statements for segment information
related to the companys operations and information
regarding geographic areas.
Managements
Overview
Management believes that the momentum for the global economic
recovery is continuing and expects that improving economic
conditions will lead to an increase in the demand for industrial
real estate. Management expects to see earnings growth if it is
able to improve asset utilization by returning its owned and
managed portfolio closer to its historical occupancy average of
95%; complete the build-out and leasing of its development
portfolio; and realize value from its land bank through new
ventures, sales and future
build-to-suit
projects. The company believes that capital deployment
opportunities are increasing and is evaluating multiple
transactions in its target markets around the globe. Management
believes that its ability to provide multiple forms of
consideration to institutional investors, lenders and private
developers provide the company with proprietary access to
acquisition opportunities. The company is observing a positive
shift in customer sentiment as well as in investor interest in
high quality, well-located industrial real estate. Management
believes that its existing and new private capital co-investment
ventures and joint ventures are well positioned to benefit from
this shift in investor preferences.
Strength
of Balance Sheet and Liquidity
The companys liquidity at March 31, 2010 was
$1.1 billion, consisting of more than $900 million of
availability on its lines of credit and approximately
$210 million of cash and cash equivalents on an owned and
managed basis.
48
Subsequent to quarter end, the company completed the issuance
and sale of approximately 18.2 million shares of its common
stock in a public offering at a price of $27.50 per share,
generating approximately $479 million in net proceeds. The
company intends to use the net proceeds for general corporate
purposes, which may include equity investments in co-investment
funds, acquisitions of properties, portfolios of properties or
interests in property-owning or real estate-related entities;
development, redevelopment or value-added conversion activities;
the repayment of indebtedness (which may include intercompany
indebtedness); the redemption or other repurchase of outstanding
securities; loans to affiliated entities; capital expenditures
and increasing our working capital. Pending such uses, the
operating partnership used the net proceeds to reduce borrowings
under its unsecured credit facilities and invested in short-term
securities. Management believes that the offering will allow the
company to take advantage of emerging opportunities while
preserving its financial strength.
Real
Estate Operations
While the company continues to contend with a challenging
operating environment, the company believes the pace of the
global economic recovery is encouraging. The company has
observed that customer sentiment continues to improve and this
is translating into an increase in leasing activity in most
markets around the globe. This increase in activity relates to
more customer dialogue, property showings, requests for
proposal, and deals under negotiation. Management continues to
expect improvement in occupancy in the second half of this year
and gain further traction into 2011.
The deterioration rate for real estate operating fundamentals is
flattening out. In the U.S., according to CBRE Econometric
Advisors, net absorption was less negative in the quarter, at
minus 17 million square feet, essentially flat relative to
the product base of 13 billion square feet. Availability
increased by about 10 basis points to 14%, the smallest
increase in 10 quarters. The companys coastal markets
showed marginal signs of improvement, with availability at 12%
for the past two quarters, which management believes indicates a
bottom in those markets. CBRE Econometric Advisors noted that
the delivery of new product and the pipeline of projects under
construction continued to achieve historic lows. Management
continues to believe that record low deliveries, met by moderate
demand, will drive the availability rate back down in the second
half of the year. Consensus trade forecast implies significant
improvement in net absorption starting in mid-2010. Management
believes that these numbers indicate that the company is
progressing through the inflection point.
Cash-basis same-store NOI was down 5.1% for the first quarter,
driven primarily by lower occupancy. Without the effect of
foreign currency, cash-basis same-store NOI decreased 6.5%. The
companys quarter-end and average occupancy were at 90.5%
and 90.3% respectively. The 70 basis points decrease in
quarter-end occupancy from year-end was primarily attributable
to the decline in month to month leasing associated with the
companys typical seasonal holiday demand in the fourth
quarter. The company had a solid quarter of leasing volume,
commencing approximately 8.4 million square feet in the
companys operating portfolio. In the companys
development portfolio, the company leased 1.2 million
square feet in the first quarter.
Rent changes on rollovers were negative 9.1% on a trailing four
quarter basis. Roll down was negative 9.5% for the quarter, a
slight improvement over the fourth quarter of 2009. Rent changes
on rollover are expected to be negative for 2010, although
management believes that rents have bottomed in most of the
companys markets today.
Private
Capital Business
During the first quarter, the company invested $150 million
in its two open-ended funds, specifically $100 million in
AMB U.S. Logistics Fund, L.P. and $50 million in AMB
Europe Fund I, FCP-FIS. There were an additional
$50 million in new third-party equity investments in AMB
U.S. Logistics Fund, L.P. during the first quarter. In April
2010, the company invested an additional $50 million into
AMB U.S. Logistics Fund, L.P., along with $29 million
in new third-party equity investments. During the quarter, the
company acquired two assets in AMB U.S. Logistics Fund for
$45.6 million at an 8.2% stabilized cap rate.
Equityholders in two of the companys co-investment
ventures, AMB U.S. Logistics Fund, L.P. and AMB Europe
Fund I, FCP-FIS, have a right to request that the ventures
redeem their interests under certain conditions. The redemption
right of investors in AMB Europe Fund I, FCP-FIS is
exercisable beginning after July 1, 2011. As of
March 31, 2010, there was no redemption queue for AMB
U.S. Logistics Fund, L.P.
49
Development
Business
The company has limited its development activity to previously
committed projects and did not commence any development projects
in the first quarter of 2010. During the first quarter of 2010,
the company completed its first acquisition in Brazil, with the
purchase of 58 acres of land in its joint venture with
Cyrela Commercial Properties (CCP). As of
March 31, 2010, the company held a total of
2,544 acres of land for future development or sale on an
owned and managed basis, approximately 86% of which is located
in the Americas, including Brazil. The company currently
estimates that these 2,544 acres of land could support
approximately 46.3 million square feet of future
development.
Summary
of Key Transactions
During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the company
completed the following significant capital deployment and other
transactions:
|
|
|
|
|
Acquired two properties aggregating approximately
0.7 million square feet for an aggregate price of
approximately $45.6 million through AMB U.S. Logistics
Fund, L.P., an unconsolidated co-investment venture;
|
|
|
|
Acquired 58 acres of land in Sao Paulo, Brazil with
estimated build-out potential of 1.2 million square feet
with its joint venture partner CCP; and
|
|
|
|
Sold development projects aggregating approximately
0.3 million square feet, including 0.2 million square
feet that was part of an installment sale initiated in the
fourth quarter of 2009 and completed in the first quarter of
2010, for an aggregate sales price of $22.9 million, of
which $12.5 million related to the installment sale.

See Part I, Item 1: Notes 3 and 4 of the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a
more detailed discussion of the companys acquisition,
development and disposition activity.
Critical
Accounting Policies
In the preparation of financial statements, the company utilizes
certain critical accounting policies. There have been no
material changes in the companys significant accounting
policies included in the notes to its audited financial
statements included in the Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the parent company and the operating partnership for the
year ended December 31, 2009.
CONSOLIDATED
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The analysis below includes changes attributable to same store
growth, acquisitions, development activity and divestitures. The
same store pool includes all properties that are owned as of the
end of both the current and prior year reporting periods and
excludes development properties stabilized after
December 31, 2008 (generally defined as properties that are
90% occupied). As of March 31, 2010, the same store
industrial pool consisted of properties aggregating
approximately 69.2 million square feet. The companys
future financial condition and results of operations, including
rental revenues, may be impacted by the acquisition and
disposition of additional properties, and expenses may vary
materially from historical results. Acquisition and development
property divestiture activity for the three months ended
March 31, 2010 and 2009 was as follows:

Same store rental revenues decreased $6.4 million from the
prior year due primarily to decreased occupancy as compared to
the first quarter of 2009, as well as higher lease termination
fees recognized in the first quarter of 2009. The increase in
rental revenues from development of $3.8 million is
primarily due to increased occupancy at several of the
companys development projects. Other industrial revenues
include rental revenues from completed development projects that
are not yet part of the same store operating pool of properties.
The increase in these revenues of $1.4 million primarily
reflects the further completion of the companys
development portfolio and higher occupancy. The decrease in
private capital revenues of $4.2 million was primarily due
to the recognition in the first quarter of 2009 of asset
management fees received from AMB Japan Fund I, L.P.

Same store properties operating expenses decreased
$2.6 million from the prior year primarily due to decreased
repairs and maintenance expenses, utilities, roads and grounds
expenses and administrative expenses as well as decreased
occupancy from the first quarter of 2009. The increase in
development operating costs of $1.9 million was primarily
due to an increase in real estate taxes and an increase in
utilities, repairs and maintenance expenses and ground rent
expenses due to higher occupancy in certain development
projects. The increase in other
51
industrial operating costs of $1.0 million was primarily
due to an increase in real estate taxes and utilities over the
first quarter of 2009. The increase in depreciation and
amortization expenses of $6.5 million is primarily due to
$1.2 million additional depreciation expense recorded upon
reclassification of assets from properties held for contribution
to investments in real estate recognized in the first quarter of
2010 and asset stabilizations. During the three months ended
March 31, 2010, the company recorded $3.0 million in
restructuring charges associated with severance and the
termination of certain contractual obligations. In the first
quarter of 2009, no restructuring charges were recognized. See
Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements for a more detailed discussion of the real
estate impairment losses recorded in the companys results
of operations during 2009. Other expenses increased
$1.9 million primarily as a result of a $2.2 million
change in the assets and liabilities associated with the
companys non-qualified deferred compensation plan as
compared to the same period in the prior year.

Development profits represent gains from the sale or
contribution of development projects, including land. During the
three months ended March 31, 2010, the company recognized
development profits of approximately $4.8 million primarily
as a result of the sale of development projects to
third-parties, aggregating approximately 0.3 million square
feet for an aggregate sales price of $22.9 million. This
included the installment sale of approximately 0.2 million
square feet for $12.5 million with development profits of
$3.9 million recognized in the three months ended
March 31, 2010, which was initiated in the fourth quarter
of 2009 and completed in the first quarter of 2010. The decrease
of $28.5 million is due to the recognition of development
profits as a result of the contribution of one completed
development project, aggregating approximately 1.0 million
square feet, to AMB Japan Fund I, L.P. during the first
quarter of 2009.
The increase in equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint
ventures of $3.9 million for 2010 was primarily due to
impairment losses recognized on the companys
unconsolidated assets under management in the first quarter of
2009. Other income increased $7.4 million from the prior
year primarily due to a $2.2 million change in the assets
and liabilities associated with the companys non-qualified
deferred compensation plan as compared to the same period in
2009, the recognition of a $3.8 million loss on write-down
of an investment in the first quarter of 2009 and a decrease in
foreign currency exchange rate losses, partially offset by a
decrease in bank interest income. During the quarter ended
March 31, 2010, the company recognized a loss on currency
remeasurement of approximately $1.0 million, compared to a
loss of approximately $4.7 million in the same period of
2009.

The decrease in income attributable to discontinued operations
of $18.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2010
as compared to the same quarter in 2009 was primarily due to the
sale of seven industrial properties, aggregating approximately
0.7 million square feet for a sale price of
$58.4 million, with a resulting gain of
52
$19.1 million in the first quarter of 2009. The company did
not sell any industrial operating properties in the first
quarter of 2010.

LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES OF THE PARENT COMPANY
In this Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Parent
Company section, the parent company refers
only to AMB Property Corporation and not to any of its
subsidiaries.
The parent companys business is operated primarily through
the operating partnership. The parent company issues public
equity from time to time, but does not otherwise conduct any
business or generate any capital itself. The parent company
itself does not hold any indebtedness, and its only material
asset is its ownership of partnership interests of the operating
partnership. The parent companys principal funding
requirement is the payment of dividends on its common and
preferred stock. The parent companys principal source of
funding for its dividend payments is distributions it receives
from the operating partnership.
As of March 31, 2010, the parent company owned an
approximate 97.8% general partnership interest in the operating
partnership, excluding preferred units. The remaining
approximate 2.2% common limited partnership interests are owned
by non-affiliated investors and certain current and former
directors and officers of the parent company. As of
March 31, 2010, the parent company owned all of the
preferred limited partnership units of the operating
partnership. As the sole general partner of the operating
partnership, the parent company has the full, exclusive and
complete responsibility for the operating partnerships
day-to-day
management and control. The parent company causes the operating
partnership to distribute all, or such portion as the parent
company may in its discretion determine, of its available cash
in the manner provided in the operating partnerships
partnership agreement. Generally, if distributions are made,
distributions are paid in the following order of priority:
first, to satisfy any prior distribution shortfall to the parent
company as the holder of preferred units; second, to the parent
company as the holder of preferred units; and third, to the
holders of common units of the operating partnership, including
the parent company, in accordance with the rights of each such
class.
As general partner with control of the operating partnership,
the parent company consolidates the operating partnership for
financial reporting purposes, and the parent company does not
have significant assets other than its investment in the
operating partnership. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of
the parent company and the operating partnership are the same on
their respective financial statements. However, all debt is held
directly or indirectly at the operating partnership level, and
the parent company has guaranteed some of the operating
partnerships secured and unsecured debt as discussed
below. As the parent company consolidates the operating
partnership, the section entitled Liquidity and Capital
Resources of the Operating Partnership should be read in
conjunction with this section to understand the liquidity and
capital resources of the company on a consolidated basis and how
the company is operated as a whole.
Capital
Resources of the Parent Company
Distributions from the operating partnership are the parent
companys principal source of capital. The parent company
receives proceeds from equity issuances from time to time, but
is required by the operating partnerships partnership
agreement to contribute the proceeds from its equity issuances
to the operating partnership in exchange for partnership units
of the operating partnership.
As circumstances warrant, the parent company may issue equity
from time to time on an opportunistic basis, dependent upon
market conditions and available pricing. The operating
partnership may use the proceeds to repay debt, including
borrowings under its lines of credit, to make acquisitions of
properties, portfolios of properties or
53
U.S. or foreign property-owning or real estate-related
entities, to invest in existing or newly created joint ventures
or for general corporate purposes.
Common and Preferred Equity The parent company has
authorized for issuance 100,000,000 shares of preferred
stock, of which the following series were designated as of
March 31, 2010: 2,300,000 shares of series L
cumulative redeemable preferred stock, of which 2,000,000 are
outstanding; 2,300,000 shares of series M cumulative
redeemable preferred stock, all of which are outstanding;
3,000,000 shares of series O cumulative redeemable
preferred stock, all of which are outstanding; and
2,000,000 shares of series P cumulative redeemable
preferred stock, all of which are outstanding.

Noncontrolling interests in the parent company represent the
common limited partnership interests in the operating
partnership, limited partnership interests in AMB Property II,
L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, and interests held by
third-party partners in joint ventures. Such joint ventures held
approximately 21.0 million square feet as of March 31,
2010, and are consolidated for financial reporting purposes.
Please see Explanatory Note on page 1 and
Part I, Item 1: Note 7 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of the
noncontrolling interests of the parent company.
In order to maintain financial flexibility and facilitate the
deployment of capital through market cycles, the parent company
presently intends over the long term to operate with a parent
companys share of total
debt-to-parent
companys share of total market capitalization ratio or
parent companys share of total
debt-to-parent
companys share of total assets of approximately 45% or
less. In order to operate at this targeted ratio over the long
term, the parent company is currently exploring various options
to monetize its development assets through possible contribution
to funds where capacity is available, the formation of joint
ventures and the sale to third parties. It is also exploring the
potential sale of industrial operating assets to further enhance
liquidity. As of March 31, 2010, the parent companys
share of total
debt-to-parent
companys share of total assets ratio was 44.8%. (See
footnote 1 to the Capitalization Ratios table below for the
definitions of parent companys share of total market
capitalization, market equity, parent
companys share of total debt and parent
companys share of total assets.) The parent
54
company typically finances its co-investment ventures with
secured debt at a
loan-to-value
ratio of
50-65%
pursuant to its co-investment venture agreements. Additionally,
the operating partnership currently intends to manage its
capitalization in order to maintain an investment grade rating
on its senior unsecured debt. Regardless of these policies,
however, the parent companys and operating
partnerships organizational documents do not limit the
amount of indebtedness that either entity may incur.
Accordingly, management could alter or eliminate these policies
without stockholder or unitholder approval or circumstances
could arise that could render the parent company or the
operating partnership unable to comply with these policies. For
example, decreases in the market price of the parent
companys common stock have caused an increase in the ratio
of parent companys share of total
debt-to-parent
companys share of total market capitalization.

Although the parent company does not hold any indebtedness
itself, the parent companys total debt reflects the
consolidation of the operating partnerships total debt for
financial reporting purposes. The parent companys
definition of total market capitalization for the
parent company is total debt plus preferred equity liquidation
preferences plus market equity. The definition of parent
companys share of total market capitalization is the
parent companys share of total debt plus preferred equity
liquidation preferences plus market equity. The definition of
market equity is the total number of outstanding
shares of common stock of the parent company and common limited
partnership units of the operating partnership and AMB Property
II, L.P. multiplied by the closing price per share of the parent
companys common stock as of March 31, 2010. The
definition of preferred is preferred equity
liquidation preferences. Parent companys share of
total debt is the parent companys pro rata portion
of the total debt based on the parent companys percentage
of equity interest in each of the consolidated and
unconsolidated joint ventures holding the debt. Parent
companys share of total assets is the parent
companys pro rata portion of the gross book value of real
estate interests plus cash and other assets. The parent company
believes that share of total debt is a meaningful supplemental
measure, which enables both management and investors to analyze
the parent companys leverage and to compare the parent
companys leverage to that of other companies. In addition,
it allows for a more meaningful comparison of the parent
companys debt to that of other companies that do not
consolidate their joint ventures. Parent companys share of
total debt is not intended to reflect the parent companys
actual liability should there be a default under any or all of
such loans or a liquidation of the joint ventures. For a
reconciliation of parent companys share of total debt to
total consolidated debt, a GAAP financial measure, please see
the table of debt maturities and capitalization in the section
below entitled Liquidity and Capital Resources of the
Operating Partnership. |
Liquidity
of the Parent Company
The liquidity of the parent company is dependent on the
operating partnerships ability to make sufficient
distributions to the parent company. The primary cash
requirement of the parent company is its payment of dividends to
its stockholders. The parent company also guarantees some of the
operating partnerships secured and unsecured debt
described in the Debt guarantees section below. If
the operating partnership fails to fulfill its debt
requirements, which trigger parent guarantee obligations, then
the parent company will be required to fulfill its cash payment
commitments under such guarantees.
The parent company believes the operating partnerships
sources of working capital, specifically its cash flow from
operations, and borrowings available under its unsecured credit
facilities, are adequate for it to make its distribution
payments to the parent company and, in turn, for the parent
company to make its dividend payments to its stockholders.
However, there can be no assurance that the operating
partnerships sources of capital will continue to be
available at all or in amounts sufficient to meet its needs,
including its ability to make distribution payments to the
parent company. The unavailability of capital could adversely
affect the operating partnerships ability to pay its
55
distributions to the parent company, which will, in turn,
adversely affect the parent companys ability to pay cash
dividends to its stockholders and the market price of the parent
companys stock.
Should the parent company face a situation in which the
operating partnership does not have sufficient cash available
through its operations to continue operating its business as
usual (including making its distributions to the parent
company), the operating partnership may need to find alternative
ways to increase the operating partnerships liquidity.
Such alternatives, which would be done through the operating
partnership, may include, without limitation, divesting itself
of properties and decreasing the operating partnerships
cash distribution to the parent company. Other alternatives are
for the parent company to pay some or all of its dividends in
stock rather than cash or issuing its equity in public or
private transactions whether or not at favorable pricing or on
favorable terms.
If the operating partnership is unable to obtain new financing
or refinance or extend principal payments due at maturity or pay
them with proceeds from other capital transactions, then its
cash flow may be insufficient to pay its distributions to the
parent company, which will have, as a result, insufficient funds
to pay cash dividends to the parent companys stockholders.
Furthermore, if prevailing interest rates or other factors at
the time of refinancing (such as the reluctance of lenders to
make commercial real estate loans) result in higher interest
rates upon refinancing, then the operating partnerships
interest expense relating to that refinanced indebtedness would
increase. This increased interest expense of the operating
partnership would adversely affect the parent companys
ability to pay cash dividends to its stockholders and the market
price of its stock.
The operating partnership may, from time to time, seek to retire
or purchase its outstanding debt through cash purchases
and/or
exchanges for the parent companys equity securities in
open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or
otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on
prevailing market conditions, the parent companys
liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other
factors. The amounts involved may be material.
For the parent company to maintain its qualification as a real
estate investment trust, it must pay dividends to its
stockholders aggregating annually at least 90% of its REIT
taxable income. While historically the parent company has
satisfied this distribution requirement by making cash
distributions to its stockholders, it may choose to satisfy this
requirement by making distributions of cash or other property,
including, in limited circumstances, the parent companys
own stock. As a result of this distribution requirement, the
operating partnership cannot rely on retained earnings to fund
its on-going operations to the same extent that other companies
whose parent companies are not real estate investment trusts
can. The parent company may need to continue to raise capital in
the equity markets to fund the operating partnerships
working capital needs, acquisitions and developments.
As circumstances warrant, the parent company may issue equity
securities from time to time on an opportunistic basis,
dependent upon market conditions and available pricing. The
parent company would contribute any such proceeds to the
operating partnership, which would then use the proceeds to
repay debt, including borrowings under its lines of credit, to
make acquisitions of properties, portfolios of properties or
U.S. or foreign property-owning or real estate-related
entities or platforms, to invest in existing or newly created
joint ventures or for general corporate purposes.

The parent company anticipates that the operating partnership
will be required to use proceeds from debt and equity financings
(including the issuance of equity by the parent company) and the
divestiture of properties, in
56
addition to cash from its operations, to make its distribution
payments and repay its maturing debt as it comes due. However,
the parent company and the operating partnership may not be able
to issue such securities on favorable terms or at all. The
parent companys or the operating partnerships
inability to issue securities on favorable terms or at all would
adversely affect the operating partnerships financial
condition, results of operations and cash flow and its ability
to pay distributions to the parent company, which will, in turn,
adversely affect the market price of the parent companys
stock and the parent companys ability to pay cash
dividends to its stockholders.
Cash flows generated by the operating partnership were
sufficient to cover the operating partnerships
distributions for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and
2009, including its distributions to the parent company, which
were, in turn, paid to the parent companys stockholders as
dividends. Cash flows from the operating partnerships real
estate operations and private capital businesses, which are
included in Net cash provided by operating
activities in the parent companys Cash Flows from
Operating Activities and cash flows from the operating
partnerships real estate development and operations
businesses which are included in Net proceeds from
divestiture of real estate in the parent companys
Cash Flows from Investing Activities in its Consolidated
Statements of Cash Flows, were sufficient to pay dividends on
the parent companys common stock and preferred stock,
distributions on common and preferred limited partnership units
of the operating partnership and AMB Property II, L.P. and
distributions to noncontrolling interests for the three months
ended March 31, 2010 and 2009. The parent company uses
proceeds from the operating partnership included in Cash Flows
from Investing Activities (specifically, the proceeds from sales
and contributions of properties as part of its real estate
development and operations businesses) to fund dividends and
distributions not covered by Cash Flows from Operating
Activities, if any.

Debt guarantees. The parent company is the
guarantor of the operating partnerships obligations with
respect to its unsecured senior debt securities. As of
March 31, 2010, the operating partnership had outstanding
an aggregate of $1.2 billion in unsecured senior debt
securities, which bore a weighted average interest rate of 6.4%
and had an average term of 5.8 years. The indenture for the
senior debt securities contains limitation on mergers or
consolidations of the parent company.
The parent company guarantees the operating partnerships
obligations with respect to certain of its other debt
obligations related to its $425.0 million multi-currency
senior unsecured term loan facility, which includes Euro and Yen
tranches. Using the exchange rates in effect on March 31,
2010, the facility had an outstanding balance of approximately
$412.6 million in U.S. dollars, which bore a weighted
average interest rate of 3.9% and matures in October 2012. This
facility contains limitations on the incurrence of liens and
limitations on mergers or consolidations of the parent company.
57
The parent company is a guarantor of the operating
partnerships obligations under its $550.0 million
(includes Euros, Yen, British pounds sterling or
U.S. dollar denominated borrowings) unsecured revolving
credit facility, which, as of March 31, 2010, had a balance
of $93.0 million using the exchange rate in effect at
March 31, 2010 and bore a weighted average interest rate of
0.71%. This facility had an original maturity date of
June 2010. Subsequent to quarter end, the operating
partnership exercised its option to extend the maturity date to
June 2011. This extension is subject to certain conditions.
The parent company, along with the operating partnership,
guarantees the obligations of AMB Japan Finance Y.K., a
subsidiary of the operating partnership, under its credit
facility, as well as the obligations of any other entity in
which the operating partnership directly or indirectly owns an
ownership interest and which is selected from time to time to be
a borrower under and pursuant to the credit agreement. This
credit facility has an initial borrowing limit of
55.0 billion Yen, which, using the exchange rate in effect
at March 31, 2010, equaled approximately
$588.5 million U.S. dollars. As of March 31,
2010, this facility had a balance of $292.0 million using
the exchange rate in effect at March 31, 2010 and bore a
weighted average interest rate of 0.68%. This facility had an
original maturity date of June 2010. Subsequent to quarter
end, the operating partnership exercised its option to extend
the maturity date to June 2011. This facility is subject to
certain conditions.
The parent company and the operating partnership guarantee the
obligations for such subsidiaries and other entities controlled
by the operating partnership that are selected by the operating
partnership from time to time to be borrowers under and pursuant
to a $500.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility.
The operating partnership and certain of its wholly-owned
subsidiaries, each acting as a borrower, with the parent company
and the operating partnership as guarantors, entered into this
credit facility, which has an option to further increase the
facility to $750.0 million and to allow for future
borrowing in Indian rupees. As of March 31, 2010, this
facility had a balance of $331.0 million using the exchange
rate in effect at March 31, 2010 and bore a weighted
average interest rate of 0.86%.
The credit agreements related to the above facilities contain
limitations on the incurrence of liens and limitations on
mergers or consolidations of the parent company.
Potential Contingent and Unknown
Liabilities. Contingent and unknown liabilities
may include claims for indemnification by officers and directors
and tax, legal and regulatory liabilities.
LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES OF THE OPERATING PARTNERSHIP
Balance Sheet Strategy. In general, the
operating partnership uses unsecured lines of credit, unsecured
notes, common and preferred equity (issued by the parent
company, the operating partnership and their subsidiaries, as
applicable) to capitalize its wholly owned assets. Over time,
the operating partnership plans to retire non-recourse, secured
debt encumbering its wholly owned assets and replace that debt
with unsecured notes where practicable. In managing the
co-investment ventures, in general, the operating partnership
uses non-recourse, secured debt to capitalize its co-investment
ventures.
The operating partnership currently expects that its principal
sources of working capital and funding for debt service,
development, acquisitions, expansion and renovation of
properties will include:
|
|
|
|
|
cash on hand and cash flow from operations;
|
|
|
|
borrowings under its unsecured credit facilities;
|
|
|
|
other forms of secured or unsecured financing;
|
|
|
|
assumption of debt related to acquired properties;
|
|
|
|
proceeds from limited partnership unit offerings (including
issuances of limited partnership units by the operating
partnerships subsidiaries);
|
|
|
|
proceeds from debt securities offerings by the operating
partnership;
|
|
|
|
proceeds from equity offerings by the parent company;
|
58
|
|
|
|
|
net proceeds from divestitures of properties;
|
|
|
|
private capital from co-investment partners;
|
|
|
|
net proceeds from contributions of properties and completed
development projects to its co-investment ventures; and
|
|
|
|
net proceeds from the sales of development projects, value-added
conversion projects and land to third parties.
|
The operating partnership currently expects that its principal
funding requirements will include:
|
|
|
|
|
debt service;
|
|
|
|
distributions on outstanding common, preferred and general
partnership units;
|
|
|
|
working capital;
|
|
|
|
acquisitions of properties, portfolios of properties, interests
in real-estate related entities or platforms; and
|
|
|
|
development, expansion and renovation of properties.
|
Capital
Resources of the Operating Partnership
The operating partnership believes its sources of working
capital, specifically its cash flow from operations, and
borrowings available under its unsecured credit facilities, are
adequate for it to meet its current liquidity requirements.
However, there can be no assurance that the operating
partnerships sources of capital will continue to be
available at all or in amounts sufficient to meet its needs. The
unavailability of capital could adversely affect the operating
partnerships financial condition, results of operations,
cash flow and the ability to pay cash distributions to its
unitholders and make payments to its noteholders.
For the parent company to maintain its qualification as a real
estate investment trust, it must pay dividends to its
stockholders aggregating annually at least 90% of its taxable
income. As a result of this distribution requirement, the
operating partnership cannot rely on retained earnings to fund
its on-going operations to the same extent that other
corporations whose parent companies are not real estate
investment trusts can. The operating partnership may need to
continue to raise capital in both the debt and equity markets to
fund its working capital needs, acquisitions and developments.
Cash Flows. For the three months ended
March 31, 2010, cash provided by operating activities was
$70.1 million as compared to $61.8 million for the
same period in 2009. This change is primarily due to changes in
the operating partnerships accounts receivable and other
assets and accounts payable and other liabilities, partially
offset by lower net operating income in 2010. Cash used in
investing activities was $183.3 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to cash provided
by investing activities of $15.2 million for the same
period in 2009. This change is primarily due to a decrease in
net proceeds from divestiture of real estate and securities and
an increase in additions to interests in unconsolidated joint
ventures, partially offset by a decrease in additions to land,
buildings, development costs, building improvements and lease
costs. Cash provided by financing activities was
$67.4 million for the three months ended March 31,
2010, as compared to cash used in financing activities of
$45.6 million for the same period in 2009. This change is
due primarily to an increase in net borrowings on unsecured
credit facilities and a decrease in payments on senior debt.
This activity was partially offset by a decrease in the issuance
of common units and an increase in net payments on secured debt.
Partners Capital. As of March 31,
2010, the operating partnership had outstanding 149,715,804
common general partnership units; 2,119,928 common limited
partnership units; 2,000,000 6.50% series L cumulative
redeemable preferred units; 2,300,000 6.75% series M
cumulative redeemable preferred units; 3,000,000 7.00%
series O cumulative redeemable preferred units; and
2,000,000 6.85% series P cumulative redeemable preferred
units.
Development Completions. Development
completions are generally defined as properties that are 90%
occupied or pre-leased, or that have been substantially complete
for at least 12 months. Development completions
59
on a consolidated basis during the three months ended
March 31, 2010 and 2009 were as follows (dollars in

Properties Held for Sale or Contribution,
Net. As of March 31, 2010, the operating
partnership held for sale three properties with an aggregate net
book value of $7.6 million. These properties either are not
in the operating partnerships core markets, do not meet
its current investment objectives, or are included as part of
its
development-for-sale
or value-added conversion programs. The sales of the properties
are subject to negotiation of acceptable terms and other
customary conditions. Properties held for sale are stated at the
lower of cost or estimated fair value less costs to sell. As of
December 31, 2009, the operating partnership held for sale
three properties with an aggregate net book value of
$13.9 million.
As of March 31, 2010, the operating partnership held for
contribution to co-investment ventures eight properties with an
aggregate net book value of $140.2 million, which, when
contributed, will reduce its average ownership interest in these
projects from approximately 95% to an expected range of less
than 40%. As of December 31, 2009, the operating
partnership held for contribution to co-investment ventures 11
properties with an aggregate net book value of
$200.5 million.
As of March 31, 2010, properties with an aggregate net book
value of $53.1 million were reclassified from held for
contribution to investments in real estate as a result of the
change in managements intent to hold these assets. These
properties may be reclassified as properties held for sale or
held for contribution at some future time. In accordance with
the operating partnerships policies of accounting for the
impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, during the three
months ended March 31, 2010, the operating partnership
recognized $1.2 million of additional depreciation expense
and related accumulated depreciation from the reclassification
of assets from properties held for sale and contribution to
investments in real estate. During the three months ended
March 31, 2009, the operating partnership recognized
additional depreciation expense and related accumulated
depreciation of $3.2 million as a result of similar
reclassifications, as well as impairment charges of
$55.8 million on real estate assets held for divestiture or
contribution for which it was determined that the carrying value
was greater than the estimated fair value.
Gains from Sale of Real Estate Interests, Net of
Taxes. During the three months ended
March 31, 2010, the operating partnership did not sell any
industrial operating properties. During the three months ended
March 31, 2009, the operating partnership sold
approximately 0.7 million square feet of industrial
operating properties for a sale price of $58.4 million,
with a resulting gain of $19.1 million. These gains are
presented in gains from sale of real estate interests, net of
taxes, as discontinued operations in the statements of
operations.
Co-investment Ventures. The operating
partnership enters into co-investment ventures with
institutional investors, which are managed by the operating
partnerships private capital group and provide it with an
additional source of capital to fund certain acquisitions,
development projects and renovation projects, as well as private
capital income. The operating partnership holds interests in
both consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures.
61
Third-party equity interests in the consolidated co-investment
ventures are reflected as noncontrolling interests in the
consolidated financial statements. As of March 31, 2010,
the operating partnership owned approximately 78.1 million
square feet of its properties (50.2% of the total operating and
development portfolio) through its consolidated and
unconsolidated co-investment ventures. The operating partnership
may make additional investments through these co-investment
ventures or new co-investment ventures in the future and
presently plans to do so.

The investment period for AMB DFS Fund I, LLC ended in June
2009, and as of March 31, 2010, the remaining estimated
investment is $5.0 million to complete the existing
development assets held by the fund. |
Through its investment in AMB Property Mexico, the operating
partnership held equity interests in various other
unconsolidated ventures totaling approximately
$14.6 million and $18.7 million as of March 31,
2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.
Please see Part I, Item 1: Note 9 of the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a
discussion of the operating partnerships significant
unconsolidated co-investment ventures.
Debt. In order to maintain financial
flexibility and facilitate the deployment of capital through
market cycles, the operating partnership presently intends over
the long term to operate with an operating partnerships
share of total
debt-to-operating
partnerships share of total market capitalization ratio or
operating partnerships share of total
debt-to-operating
partnerships share of total assets of approximately 45% or
less. In order to operate at this targeted ratio over the long
term, the operating partnership is currently exploring various
options to monetize its development assets through possible
contribution to funds where capacity is available, the formation
of joint ventures and the sale to third parties. The operating
partnership is also exploring the potential sale of operating
62
assets to further enhance liquidity. As of March 31, 2010,
the operating partnerships share of total
debt-to-operating
partnerships share of total assets ratio was 44.8%. (See
footnote 1 to the Capitalization Ratios table below for the
definitions of operating partnerships share of total
market capitalization, market capital,
operating partnerships share of total debt and
operating partnerships share of total assets.)
The operating partnership typically finances its co-investment
ventures with secured debt at a
loan-to-value
ratio of
50-65% per
its co-investment venture agreements. Additionally, the
operating partnership currently intends to manage its
capitalization in order to maintain an investment grade rating
on its senior unsecured debt. Regardless of these policies,
however, the operating partnerships organizational
documents do not limit the amount of indebtedness that it may
incur. Accordingly, management could alter or eliminate these
policies without unitholder approval or circumstances could
arise that could render it unable to comply with these policies.
For example, decreases in the market price of the parent
companys common stock have caused an increase in the ratio
of operating partnerships share of total
debt-to-operating
partnerships share of total market capitalization.
As of March 31, 2010, the aggregate principal amount of the
operating partnerships secured debt was $1.0 billion,
excluding $0.1 of unamortized net premiums. Of the
$1.0 billion of secured debt, $753.5 million,
excluding unamortized discounts, is secured by properties in the
operating partnerships joint ventures. Such secured debt
is generally non-recourse and, as of March 31, 2010, bore
interest at rates varying from 0.9% to 9.4% per annum (with a
weighted average rate of 4.9%) and had final maturity dates
ranging from June 2010 to November 2022. As of March 31,
2010, $608.4 million of the secured debt obligations bore
interest at fixed rates (with a weighted average interest rate
of 6.4%), while the remaining $355.6 million bore interest
at variable rates (with a weighted average interest rate of
2.4%). As of March 31, 2010, $600.2 million of the
secured debt before unamortized premiums was held by
co-investment ventures.
As of March 31, 2010, the operating partnership had
outstanding an aggregate of $1.2 billion in unsecured
senior debt securities, which bore a weighted average interest
rate of 6.4% and had an average term of 5.8 years. The
unsecured senior debt securities are subject to various
covenants. The covenants contain affirmative covenants,
including compliance with financial reporting requirements and
maintenance of specified financial ratios, and negative
covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of liens and
limitations on mergers or consolidations.
As of March 31, 2010, the operating partnership had
$477.9 million outstanding in other debt which bore a
weighted average interest rate of 4.1% and had an average term
of 2.6 years. Other debt includes a $70.0 million
credit facility obtained on August 24, 2007 by AMB
Institutional Alliance Fund II, L.P., a subsidiary of the
operating partnership, which had a $54.3 million balance
outstanding as of March 31, 2010. Of the remaining
$423.6 million outstanding in other debt,
$412.6 million is related to the loan facility described
below.
In October 2009, the operating partnership refinanced its
$325.0 million unsecured term loan facility, which was set
to mature in September 2010, with a $345.0 million
multi-currency facility, maturing October 2012. In December
2009, the operating partnership exercised its option and
increased the facility to $425.0 million, in accordance
with the terms set forth in the credit facility. As of
March 31, 2010, the facility had an outstanding balance of
$412.6 million, using the exchange rates in effect at
March 31, 2010. The parent company guarantees the operating
partnerships obligations with respect to certain of its
unsecured debt. These covenants contain affirmative covenants,
including compliance with financial reporting requirements and
maintenance of specified financial ratios, and negative
covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of liens and
limitations on mergers or consolidations. The operating
partnership was in compliance with its financial covenants under
its unsecured credit facilities at March 31, 2010.
If the operating partnership is unable to refinance or extend
principal payments due at maturity or pay them with proceeds
from other capital transactions, then its cash flow may be
insufficient to pay cash distributions to the operating
partnerships unitholders in all years and to repay debt
upon maturity. Furthermore, if prevailing interest rates or
other factors at the time of refinancing (such as the reluctance
of lenders to make commercial real estate loans) result in
higher interest rates upon refinancing, then the interest
expense relating to that refinanced indebtedness would increase.
This increased interest expense would adversely affect its
financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and
ability to pay cash distributions to its unitholders and make
payments to its noteholders.
The operating partnership may from time to time, seek to retire
or purchase its outstanding debt through cash purchases
and/or
exchanges for equity securities in open market purchases,
privately negotiated transactions or
63
otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on
prevailing market conditions, its liquidity requirements,
contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved
may be material.
If the long-term debt ratings of the operating partnership fall
below current levels, the borrowing cost of debt under the
operating partnerships unsecured credit facilities and
certain term loans will increase. In addition, if the long-term
debt ratings of the operating partnership fall below investment
grade, the operating partnership may be unable to request
borrowings in currencies other than U.S. dollars or
Japanese Yen, as applicable. However, the lack of other currency
borrowings does not affect the operating partnerships
ability to fully draw down under the credit facilities or term
loans. However, the operating partnerships lenders will
not be able to terminate its credit facilities or certain term
loans in the event that its credit rating falls below investment
grade status. None of the operating partnerships credit
facilities contain covenants regarding the parent companys
stock price or market capitalization, thus a decrease in the
parent companys stock price is not expected to impact the
operating partnerships ability to borrow under its
existing lines of credit. While the operating partnership
currently does not expect its long-term debt ratings to fall
below investment grade, in the event that the ratings do fall
below those levels, it may be unable to exercise its options to
extend the term of its credit facilities and the loss of the
operating partnerships ability to borrow in foreign
currencies could affect its ability to optimally hedge its
borrowings against foreign currency exchange rate changes. In
addition, based on publicly available information regarding its
lenders, the operating partnership currently does not expect to
lose borrowing capacity under its existing lines of credit as a
result of a dissolution, bankruptcy, consolidation, merger or
other business combination among its lenders. The operating
partnerships access to funds under its credit facilities
is dependent on the ability of the lenders that are parties to
such facilities to meet their funding commitments to the
operating partnership. If the operating partnership does not
have sufficient cash flows and income from its operations to
meet its financial commitments and lenders are not able to meet
their funding commitments to the operating partnership, the
operating partnerships business, results of operations,
cash flows and financial condition could be adversely affected.
The operating partnerships primary financial covenants
with respect to its credit facilities generally relate to fixed
charge or debt service coverage, liabilities to asset value,
debt to asset value and unencumbered cash flow. As of
March 31, 2010, the operating partnership was in compliance
with its financial covenants under its credit facilities. There
can be no assurance, however, that if the financial markets and
economic conditions worsen, the operating partnership will be
able to continue to comply with its financial covenants.
Certain of the operating partnerships third party
indebtedness is held by its consolidated or unconsolidated joint
ventures. In the event that a joint venture partner is unable to
meet its obligations under the operating partnerships
joint venture agreements or the third party debt agreements, the
operating partnership may elect to pay its joint venture
partners portion of debt to avoid foreclosure on the
mortgaged property or permit the lender to foreclose on the
mortgaged property to meet the joint ventures debt
obligations. In either case, the operating partnership would
lose income and asset value on the property.
In addition, a continued increase in the cost of credit and
inability to access the capital and credit markets may adversely
impact the occupancy of the operating partnerships
properties, the disposition of its properties, private capital
raising and contribution of properties to its co-investment
ventures. If it is unable to contribute completed development
properties to its co-investment ventures or sell its completed
development projects to third parties, the operating partnership
will not be able to recognize gains from the contribution or
sale of such properties and, as a result, the net income
available to its common unitholders and its funds from
operations will decrease. Additionally, business layoffs,
downsizing, industry slowdowns and other similar factors that
affect the operating partnerships customers may adversely
impact its business and financial condition. Furthermore,
general uncertainty in the real estate markets has resulted in
conditions where the pricing of certain real estate assets may
be difficult due to uncertainty with respect to capitalization
rates and valuations, among other things, which may add to the
difficulty of buyers or the operating partnerships
co-investment ventures to obtain financing on favorable terms to
acquire such properties or cause potential buyers to not
complete acquisitions of such properties. The market uncertainty
with respect to capitalization rates and real estate valuations
also adversely impacts the operating partnerships net
asset value.
While the operating partnership believes that it has sufficient
working capital and capacity under its credit facilities to
continue its business operations as usual in the near term,
continued turbulence in the global markets and
64
economies and prolonged declines in business and consumer
spending may adversely affect its liquidity and financial
condition, as well as the liquidity and financial condition of
its customers. If these market conditions persist, recur or
worsen in the long term, they may limit the operating
partnerships ability, and the ability of its customers, to
timely replace maturing liabilities and access the capital
markets to meet liquidity needs. In the event that it does not
have sufficient cash available to it through its operations to
continue operating its business as usual, the operating
partnership may need to find alternative ways to increase its
liquidity. Such alternatives may include, without limitation,
divesting the operating partnership of properties, whether or
not they otherwise meet its strategic objectives to keep in the
long term, at less than optimal terms; issuing and selling the
operating partnerships debt and equity in public or
private transactions under less than optimal conditions;
entering into leases with the operating partnerships
customers at lower rental rates or less than optimal terms;
entering into lease renewals with the operating
partnerships existing customers with a decrease in rental
rates at turnover or on suboptimal terms; or paying a portion of
the parent companys dividends in stock rather than cash.
There can be no assurance, however, that such alternative ways
to increase its liquidity will be available to the operating
partnership. Additionally, taking such measures to increase its
liquidity may adversely affect the operating partnerships
business, results of operations and financial condition.
As circumstances warrant, the operating partnership may issue
debt securities from time to time on an opportunistic basis,
dependent upon market conditions and available pricing. The
operating partnership would use the proceeds to repay debt,
including borrowings under its lines of credit, to make
acquisitions of properties, portfolios of properties or
U.S. or foreign property-owning or real estate-related
entities or platforms, to invest in newly formed or existing
joint ventures, or for general corporate purposes.
Credit Facilities. The operating partnership
has a $550.0 million (includes Euros, Yen, British pounds
sterling or U.S. dollar denominated borrowings) unsecured
revolving credit facility. The parent company is a guarantor of
the operating partnerships obligations under the credit
facility. The line carries a one-year extension option, which
the operating partnership may exercise at its sole option so
long as the operating partnerships long-term debt rating
is investment grade, among other things, and the facility can be
increased to up to $700.0 million upon certain conditions.
The rate on the borrowings is generally LIBOR plus a margin,
which was 42.5 basis points as of March 31, 2010,
based on the operating partnerships long-term debt rating,
with an annual facility fee of 15.0 basis points. If the
operating partnerships long-term debt ratings fall below
investment grade, it will be unable to request money market
loans and borrowings in Euros, Yen or British pounds sterling.
The four-year credit facility includes a multi-currency
component, under which up to $550.0 million can be drawn in
Euros, Yen, British pounds sterling or U.S. dollars. The
operating partnership uses the credit facility principally for
acquisitions, funding development activity and general working
capital requirements. As of March 31, 2010, the outstanding
balance on this credit facility was $93.0 million, which
bore a weighted average interest rate of 0.71%, and the
remaining amount available was $445.0 million, net of
outstanding letters of credit of $12.0 million, using the
exchange rate in effect on March 31, 2010. This facility
had an original maturity date of June 2010. Subsequent to
quarter end, the operating partnership exercised its option to
extend the maturity date to June 2011. This extension is
subject to certain conditions.
AMB Japan Finance Y.K., a subsidiary of the operating
partnership, has a Yen-denominated unsecured revolving credit
facility with an initial borrowing limit of 55.0 billion
Yen, which, using the exchange rate in effect at March 31,
2010, equaled approximately $588.5 million
U.S. dollars and bore a weighted average interest rate of
0.68%. The parent company, along with the operating partnership,
guarantees the obligations of AMB Japan Finance Y.K. under the
credit facility, as well as the obligations of any other entity
in which the operating partnership directly or indirectly owns
an ownership interest and which is selected from time to time to
be a borrower under and pursuant to the credit agreement. The
borrowers intend to use the proceeds from the facility to fund
the acquisition and development of properties and for other real
estate purposes in Japan, China and South Korea. Generally,
borrowers under the credit facility have the option to secure
all or a portion of the borrowings under the credit facility
with certain real estate assets or equity in entities holding
such real estate assets. The credit facility had an original
maturity date of June 2010. Subsequent to quarter end, the
operating partnership exercised its option to extend the
maturity date to June 2011. This extension is subject to certain
conditions. The rate on the borrowings is generally TIBOR plus a
margin, which was 42.5 basis points as of March 31,
2010, based on the credit rating of the operating
partnerships long-term debt. In addition, there is an
annual facility fee, payable in quarterly amounts, which is
based on the credit rating of the operating partnerships
long-term debt, and was 15.0 basis points
65
of the outstanding commitments under the facility as of
March 31, 2010. As of March 31, 2010, the outstanding
balance on this credit facility, using the exchange rate in
effect on March 31, 2010, was $292.0 million, and the
remaining amount available was $296.5 million.
The operating partnership and certain of its wholly-owned
subsidiaries, each acting as a borrower, with the parent company
and the operating partnership as guarantors, have a
$500.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility. The
parent company, along with the operating partnership, guarantees
the obligations for such subsidiaries and other entities
controlled by the operating partnership that are selected by the
operating partnership from time to time to be borrowers under
and pursuant to this credit facility. Generally, borrowers under
the credit facility have the option to secure all or a portion
of the borrowings under the credit facility. The credit facility
includes a multi-currency component under which up to
$500.0 million can be drawn in U.S. dollars, Hong Kong
dollars, Singapore dollars, Canadian dollars, British pounds
sterling, and Euros with the ability to add Indian rupees. The
line, which matures in July 2011, carries a one-year
extension option, which the operating partnership may exercise
at its sole option so long as the operating partnerships
long-term debt rating is investment grade, among other things,
and can be increased to up to $750.0 million upon certain
conditions and the payment of an extension fee equal to 0.15% of
the outstanding commitments. The rate on the borrowings is
generally LIBOR plus a margin, which was 60.0 basis points
as of March 31, 2010, based on the credit rating of the
operating partnerships senior unsecured long-term debt,
with an annual facility fee based on the credit rating of the
operating partnerships senior unsecured long-term debt. If
the operating partnerships long-term debt ratings fall
below investment grade, it will be unable to request borrowings
in any currency other than U.S. dollars. The borrowers
intend to use the proceeds from the facility to fund the
acquisition and development of properties and general working
capital requirements. As of March 31, 2010, the outstanding
balance on this credit facility, using the exchange rates in
effect at March 31, 2010, was approximately
$331.0 million with a weighted average interest rate of
0.86%, and the remaining amount available was
$169.0 million.
The above credit facilities contain affirmative covenants,
including compliance with financial reporting requirements and
maintenance of specified financial ratios, and negative
covenants of the operating partnership, including limitations on
the incurrence of liens and limitations on mergers or
consolidations. The operating partnership was in compliance with
its financial covenants under each of these credit agreements as
of March 31, 2010.

Operating partnerships share of total debt represents the
operating partnerships pro rata portion of the total debt
based on the operating partnerships percentage of equity
interest in each of the consolidated or unconsolidated joint
ventures holding the debt. The operating partnership believes
that operating partnerships share of total debt is a
meaningful supplemental measure, which enables both management
and investors to analyze its leverage and to compare its
leverage to that of other companies. In addition, it allows for
a more meaningful comparison of the operating partnerships
debt to that of other companies that do not consolidate their
joint ventures. Operating partnerships share of total debt
is not intended to reflect the operating partnerships
actual liability should there be a default under any or all of
such loans or a liquidation of the co-investment ventures. The
above table reconciles operating partnerships share of
total debt to total consolidated debt, a GAAP financial measure. |

Liquidity
of the Operating Partnership
As of March 31, 2010, the operating partnership had
$153.4 million in cash and cash equivalents and
$21.9 million in restricted cash. During the three months
ended March 31, 2010, the operating partnership reduced the
availability under its lines of credit by approximately
$240 million while increasing its share of outstanding debt
by approximately $275 million. As of March 31, 2010,
the operating partnership had $910.5 million available for
future borrowings under its three multi-currency lines of
credit, representing line utilization of 44%.
The operating partnerships available cash and cash
equivalents are held in accounts managed by third party
financial institutions and consist of invested cash and cash in
its operating accounts. The invested cash is invested in money
market funds that invest solely in direct obligations of the
government of the United States or in time deposits with certain
financial institutions. To date, the operating partnership has
experienced no loss or lack of access to its invested cash or
cash equivalents; however, the operating partnership can provide
no assurances that access to its invested cash and cash
equivalents will not be impacted by adverse conditions in the
financial markets.
At any point in time, the operating partnership also has a
significant amount of cash deposits in its operating accounts
that are with third party financial institutions, which was, as
of March 31, 2010, approximately $127.7 million on a
consolidated basis. These balances exceed the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation insurance limits. While the operating
partnership monitors daily the cash balances in its operating
accounts and adjusts the cash balances as appropriate, these
cash balances could be impacted if the underlying financial
institutions fail or be subject to other adverse conditions in
the financial markets. To date, the operating partnership has
experienced no loss or lack of access to cash in its operating
accounts.

On November 10, 2009, the parent company purchased all
1,595,337 outstanding series D preferred units of AMB
Property II, L.P. in exchange for 2,880,281 shares of its
common stock at a discount of $9.8 million. The operating
partnership issued 2,880,281 general partnership units to the
parent company in exchange for the 1,595,337 series D
preferred units the parent company purchased. |
The operating partnership anticipates that it will be required
to use proceeds from debt and equity financings and the
divestitures of properties, in addition to cash from its
operations, to make its distribution payments and repay its
maturing debt as it comes due. However, the operating
partnership may not be able to obtain future financings on
favorable terms or at all. The operating partnerships
inability to obtain future financings on favorable terms or at
all would adversely affect its financial condition, results of
operations, cash flow and ability to pay cash distributions to
its unitholders and make payments to its noteholders. The
operating partnership is currently exploring various options to
monetize its development assets including contribution to funds
where investment capacity is available, the formation of joint
ventures and the sale of assets to third parties. The operating
partnership is also exploring the potential sale of operating
assets to further enhance liquidity. There can be no assurance,
however, that the operating partnership will choose to or be
able to monetize any of its assets.
Cash flows generated by the operating partnerships
business were sufficient to cover its distributions for the
three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, including its
distributions to the parent company, which are, in turn, paid to
the parent companys stockholders as dividends and
distributions. Cash flows from the operating
70
partnerships real estate operations and private capital
businesses, which are included in Net cash provided by
operating activities in its Cash Flows from Operating
Activities and cash flows from its real estate development and
operations businesses which are included in Net proceeds
from divestiture of real estate in its Cash Flows from
Investing Activities in its Consolidated Statements of Cash
Flows, were sufficient to pay distributions on common and
preferred limited partnership units of the operating partnership
and AMB Property II, L.P. and distributions to noncontrolling
interests for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and
2009. The operating partnership uses proceeds from its
businesses included in Cash Flows from Investing Activities
(specifically, the proceeds from sales and contributions of
properties as part of its real estate development and operations
businesses) to fund distributions not covered by Cash Flows from
Operating Activities.

Development Portfolio. As of March 31,
2010, the operating partnership had nine
construction-in-progress
development projects, on an owned and managed basis, which are
expected to total approximately 3.7 million square feet and
have an aggregate estimated investment of $284.0 million
upon completion, net of $16.7 million of cumulative real
estate impairment losses to date. One of these projects totaling
approximately 0.6 million square feet with an aggregate
estimated investment of $66.4 million was held in an
unconsolidated co-investment venture.
Construction-in-progress,
at March 31, 2010, included projects expected to be
completed through the third quarter of 2011.
On an owned and managed basis, the operating partnership had an
additional 34 development projects available for sale or
contribution totaling approximately 9.7 million square
feet, with an aggregate estimated investment of
$949.3 million, net of $80.3 million of cumulative
real estate impairment losses to date, and an aggregate net book
value of $920.6 million.
As of March 31, 2010, on an owned and managed basis, the
operating partnership and its development joint venture partners
have funded an aggregate of $1.3 billion, or 96%, of the
total estimated investment before the impact of real estate
investment losses and will need to fund an estimated additional
$59.8 million, or 4%, in order to complete its development
portfolio.
In addition to its committed development pipeline, the operating
partnership held a total of 2,544 acres of land for future
development or sale, on an owned and managed basis,
approximately 86% of which was located in North America,
including 151 acres that were held in an unconsolidated
joint venture. The operating partnership currently estimates
that these 2,544 acres of land could support approximately
46.3 million square feet of future development.
Lease Commitments. The operating partnership
has entered into operating ground leases on certain land
parcels, primarily on-tarmac facilities and office space with
remaining lease terms from 1 to 79 years. These buildings
and improvements subject to ground leases are amortized ratably
over the lesser of the terms of the related leases or
40 years.
Co-Investment Ventures. The operating
partnership enters into co-investment ventures with
institutional investors, acting as the general partner or
manager of such ventures. These co-investment ventures are
managed by the operating partnerships private capital
group and provide the company with an additional source of
capital to fund acquisitions, development projects and
renovation projects, as well as private capital income. As of
March 31, 2010, the operating partnership had investments
in co-investment ventures with a gross book value of
$1.1 billion, which are consolidated for financial
reporting purposes, and net equity investments in five
unconsolidated co-investment ventures of $537.6 million and
a gross book value of $6.5 billion. In the three months
ended March 31, 2010, the operating partnership made a
$100 million investment in AMB U.S. Logistics Fund,
L.P. and a $50 million investment in AMB Europe Fund,
FCP-FIS. Additionally, third party investors contributed
$50 million to AMB U.S. Logistics Fund, L.P. during the
first quarter of 2010. Subsequent to quarter end, the operating
partnership and third-party investors made $50 million and
$29 million investments in AMB U.S. Logistics Fund,
L.P., respectively. As of March 31, 2010, the operating
partnership may make additional capital contributions to current
and planned co-investment ventures of up to $24.6 million
pursuant to the terms of the co-investment venture agreements.
From time to time, the operating partnership may raise
additional equity commitments for AMB U.S. Logistics Fund,
L.P., an open-ended unconsolidated co-investment venture formed
in 2004 with institutional investors, most of whom invest
through a private real estate investment trust, and for AMB
Europe Fund I, FCP-FIS, an open-ended unconsolidated
co-investment venture formed in 2007 with institutional
investors. This could increase the operating partnerships
obligation to make additional capital commitments to these
ventures. Pursuant to the terms of the partnership agreement of
AMB U.S. Logistics Fund, L.P., and the management
regulations of AMB Europe Fund I,
72
FCP-FIS, the operating partnership is obligated to contribute
20% of the total equity commitments until such time when its
total equity commitment is greater than $150.0 million or
150.0 million Euros, respectively, at which time, its
obligation is reduced to 10% of the total equity commitments.
The operating partnership expects to fund these contributions
with cash from operations, borrowings under its credit
facilities, debt or equity issuances or net proceeds from
property divestitures, which could adversely affect its cash
flow.
Captive Insurance Company. In December 2001,
the operating partnership formed a wholly-owned captive
insurance company, Arcata National Insurance Ltd. (Arcata),
which provides insurance coverage for all or a portion of losses
below the attachment point of the operating partnerships
third-party insurance policies. The captive insurance company is
one element of the operating partnerships overall risk
management program. The company capitalized Arcata in accordance
with the applicable regulatory requirements. Arcata establishes
annual premiums based on projections derived from the past loss
experience of the operating partnerships properties. Like
premiums paid to third-party insurance companies, premiums paid
to Arcata may be reimbursed by customers pursuant to specific
lease terms. Through this structure, the operating partnership
believes that it has more comprehensive insurance coverage at an
overall lower cost than would otherwise be available in the
market.
Potential Contingent and Unknown
Liabilities. Contingent and unknown liabilities
may include the following:
|
|
|
|
|
liabilities for environmental conditions;
|
|
|
|
losses in excess of insured coverage;
|
|
|
|
claims of customers, vendors or other persons dealing with the
companys predecessors prior to the companys
formation or acquisition transactions that had not been asserted
or were unknown prior to the operating partnerships
formation or acquisition transactions;
|
|
|
|
claims for indemnification by the general partners, officers and
directors and others indemnified by the former owners of the
operating partnerships properties;
|
|
|
|
accrued but unpaid liabilities incurred in the ordinary course
of business; and
|

OFF-BALANCE
SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
Standby Letters of Credit. As of
March 31, 2010, the company had provided approximately
$14.6 million in letters of credit, of which
$12.0 million were provided under the operating
partnerships $550.0 million unsecured credit
facility. The letters of credit were required to be issued under
certain ground lease provisions, bank guarantees and other
commitments.
Guarantees and Contribution
Obligations. Excluding parent guarantees
associated with debt or contribution obligations as discussed in
Part I, Item 1: Notes 5, 6 and 9 of the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, as of
March 31, 2010, the company had outstanding guarantees and
contribution obligations in the aggregate amount of
$391.5 million as described below.
As of March 31, 2010, the company had outstanding bank
guarantees in the amount of $0.4 million used to secure
contingent obligations, primarily obligations under development
and purchase agreements. As of March 31, 2010, the company
also guaranteed $45.4 million and $85.1 million on
outstanding loans on six of its consolidated joint ventures and
four of its unconsolidated joint ventures, respectively.
Also, the company has entered into contribution agreements with
certain of its unconsolidated co-investment ventures. These
contribution agreements require the company to make additional
capital contributions to the applicable co-investment venture
fund upon certain defaults by the co-investment venture of
certain of its debt obligations to the lenders. Such additional
capital contributions will cover all or part of the applicable
co-investment ventures debt obligation and may be greater
than the companys share of the co-investment
ventures debt obligation or the value of the
companys share of any property securing such debt. The
companys contribution obligations under these agreements
will be reduced by the amounts recovered by the lender and the
fair market value of the property, if any, used to secure the
debt and obtained by the lender upon default. The companys
potential obligations under these contribution agreements
totaled $260.6 million as of March 31, 2010.
Performance and Surety Bonds. As of
March 31, 2010, the company had outstanding performance and
surety bonds in an aggregate amount of $5.1 million. These
bonds were issued in connection with certain of the
companys development projects and were posted to guarantee
certain property tax obligations and the construction of certain
74
real property improvements and infrastructure. Performance and
surety bonds are renewable and expire upon the payment of the
property taxes due or the completion of the improvements and
infrastructure.
Promote Interests and Other Contractual
Obligations. Upon the achievement of certain
return thresholds and the occurrence of certain events, the
company may be obligated to make payments to certain of its
joint venture partners pursuant to the terms and provisions of
their contractual agreements with the company. From time to time
in the normal course of its business, the company enters into
various contracts with third parties that may obligate the
company to make payments, pay promotes, or perform other
obligations upon the occurrence of certain events.
SUPPLEMENTAL
EARNINGS MEASURES
Funds
From Operations, as adjusted (FFO, as adjusted) and
Funds From Operations Per Share and Unit, as adjusted
(FFOPS, as adjusted)
The company believes that net (loss) income, as defined by
U.S. GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measure.
However, the company considers funds from operations, as
adjusted (or FFO, as adjusted) and FFO, as adjusted, per share
and unit (or FFOPS, as adjusted) to be useful supplemental
measures of its operating performance. The company defines
FFOPS, as adjusted, as FFO, as adjusted, per fully diluted
weighted average share of the parent companys common stock
and operating partnership units. The company calculates FFO, as
adjusted, as net income (or loss) available to common
stockholders, calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, less
gains (or losses) from dispositions of real estate held for
investment purposes and real estate-related depreciation, and
adjustments to derive the companys pro rata share of FFO,
as adjusted, of consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures.
This calculation also includes adjustments for items as
described below.
Unless otherwise stated, the company includes the gains from
development, including those from value-added conversion
projects, before depreciation recapture, as a component of FFO,
as adjusted. The company believes gains from development should
be included in FFO, as adjusted, to more completely reflect the
performance of one of its lines of business. The company
believes that value-added conversion dispositions are in
substance land sales and as such should be included in FFO, as
adjusted, consistent with the real estate investment trust
industrys long standing practice to include gains on the
sale of land in funds from operations. However, the
companys interpretation of FFO, as adjusted, or FFOPS, as
adjusted, may not be consistent with the views of others in the
real estate investment trust industry, who may consider it to be
a divergence from the National Association of Real Estate
Investment Trusts (NAREIT) definition, and may not
be comparable to funds from operations or funds from operations
per share and unit reported by other real estate investment
trusts that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently
than the company does. In connection with the formation of a
joint venture, the company may warehouse assets that are
acquired with the intent to contribute these assets to the newly
formed venture. Some of the properties held for contribution
may, under certain circumstances, be required to be depreciated
under U.S. GAAP. If this circumstance arises, the company
intends to include in its calculation of FFO, as adjusted, gains
or losses related to the contribution of previously depreciated
real estate to joint ventures. Although such a change, if
instituted, will be a departure from the current NAREIT
definition, the company believes such calculation of FFO, as
adjusted, will better reflect the value created as a result of
the contributions. To date, the company has not included gains
or losses from the contribution of previously depreciated
warehoused assets in FFO, as adjusted.
In addition, the company calculates FFO, as adjusted, to exclude
impairment and restructuring charges, debt extinguishment losses
and the Series D preferred unit redemption discount. The
impairment charges were principally a result of increases in
estimated capitalization rates and deterioration in market
conditions that adversely impacted values. The restructuring
charges reflected costs associated with the companys
reduction in global headcount and cost structure. Debt
extinguishment losses generally included the costs of
repurchasing debt securities. The company repurchased certain
tranches of senior unsecured debt to manage its debt maturities
in response to the current financing environment, resulting in
greater debt extinguishment costs. The Series D preferred
unit redemption discount reflects the gain associated with the
discount to liquidation preference in the Series D
preferred unit redemption price less costs incurred as a result
of the redemption. Although difficult to predict, these items
may be recurring given the uncertainty of the current economic
climate and its adverse effects
75
on the real estate and financial markets. While not infrequent
or unusual in nature, these items result from market
fluctuations that can have inconsistent effects on the
companys results of operations. The economics underlying
these items reflect market and financing conditions in the
short-term but can obscure the companys performance and
the value of the companys long-term investment decisions
and strategies. Management believes FFO, as adjusted, is
significant and useful to both it and its investors. FFO, as
adjusted, more appropriately reflects the value and strength of
the companys business model and its potential performance
isolated from the volatility of the current economic environment
and unobscured by costs (or gains) resulting from the
companys management of its financing profile in response
to the tightening of the capital markets. However, in addition
to the limitations of FFO, as adjusted, and FFOPS, as adjusted,
generally discussed below, FFO, as adjusted, does not present a
comprehensive measure of the companys financial condition
and operating performance. This measure is a modification of the
NAREIT definition of funds from operations and should not be
used as an alternative to net income or cash as defined by
U.S. GAAP.
The company believes that FFO, as adjusted, and FFOPS, as
adjusted, are meaningful supplemental measures of its operating
performance because historical cost accounting for real estate
assets in accordance with U.S. GAAP implicitly assumes that
the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over
time, as reflected through depreciation and amortization
expenses. However, since real estate values have historically
risen or fallen with market and other conditions, many industry
investors and analysts have considered presentation of operating
results for real estate companies that use historical cost
accounting to be insufficient. Thus, FFO, as adjusted, and
FFOPS, as adjusted, are supplemental measures of operating
performance for real estate investment trusts that exclude
historical cost depreciation and amortization, among other
items, from net income (or loss) available to common
stockholders, as defined by U.S. GAAP. The company believes
that the use of FFO, as adjusted, and FFOPS, as adjusted,
combined with the required U.S. GAAP presentations, has
been beneficial in improving the understanding of operating
results of real estate investment trusts among the investing
public and making comparisons of operating results among such
companies more meaningful. The company considers FFO, as
adjusted, and FFOPS, as adjusted, to be useful measures for
reviewing comparative operating and financial performance
because, by excluding gains or losses related to sales of
previously depreciated operating real estate assets and real
estate depreciation and amortization, FFO, as adjusted, and
FFOPS, as adjusted, can help the investing public compare the
operating performance of a companys real estate between
periods or as compared to other companies. While funds from
operations and funds from operations per share are relevant and
widely used measures of operating performance of real estate
investment trusts, FFO, as adjusted, and FFOPS, as adjusted, do
not represent cash flow from operations or net income (or loss)
as defined by U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as
alternatives to those measures in evaluating the companys
liquidity or operating performance. FFO, as adjusted, and FFOPS,
as adjusted, also do not consider the costs associated with
capital expenditures related to the companys real estate
assets nor are FFO, as adjusted, and FFOPS, as adjusted,
necessarily indicative of cash available to fund the
companys future cash requirements. Management compensates
for the limitations of FFO, as adjusted, and FFOPS, as adjusted,
by providing investors with financial statements prepared
according to U.S. GAAP, along with this detailed discussion
of FFO, as adjusted, and FFOPS, as adjusted, and a
reconciliation of FFO, as adjusted, and FFOPS, as adjusted, to
net income (or loss) available to common stockholders, a
U.S. GAAP measurement.

Same
Store Net Operating Income (SS NOI)
The company defines net operating income, or NOI, as rental
revenues, including reimbursements, less property operating
expenses. NOI excludes depreciation, amortization, general and
administrative expenses, restructuring charges, real estate
impairment losses, development profits (losses), gains (losses)
from sale or contribution of real estate interests, and interest
expense. The company believes that net income, as defined by
GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measure. However, NOI is
a useful supplemental measure calculated to help investors
understand the companys operating performance, excluding
the effects of costs and expenses which are not related to the
performance of the assets. NOI is widely used by the real estate
industry as a useful supplemental measure, which helps investors
compare the companys operating performance with that of
other companies. Real estate impairment losses have been
excluded in deriving NOI because the company does not consider
its impairment losses to be a property operating expense. The
company believes that the exclusion of impairment losses from
NOI is a common methodology used in the real estate industry.
Real estate impairment losses relate to the changing values of
the companys assets but do not reflect the current
operating performance of the assets with respect to their
revenues or expenses. The companys real estate impairment
losses are non-cash charges which represent the write down in
the value of assets when estimated fair value over the holding
period is lower than current carrying value. The impairment
charges were principally a result of increases in estimated
capitalization rates and deterioration in market conditions that
adversely impacted underlying real estate values. Therefore, the
impairment charges are not related to the current performance of
the companys real estate operations and should be excluded
from its calculation of NOI.
The company considers same store net operating income, or SS
NOI, and cash-basis SS NOI to be useful supplemental measures of
its operating performance for properties that are considered
part of the same store pool. The company defines SS NOI as NOI
on a same store basis. The company defines cash-basis SS NOI as
SS NOI excluding straight-line rents and amortization of lease
intangibles. The same store pool includes all properties that
are owned as of the end of both the current and prior year
reporting periods and excludes development properties for both
the current and prior reporting periods. The same store pool is
set annually and excludes properties purchased and developments
stabilized after December 31, 2008. The company considers
cash-basis SS NOI to be an appropriate and useful supplemental
performance measure because it reflects the operating
performance of the real estate portfolio excluding effects of
certain adjustments and provides a better measure of actual
cash-basis rental growth for a
year-over-year
comparison. In addition, the company believes that SS NOI and
cash-basis SS NOI help investors compare the operating
performance of its real estate as compared to other companies.
While SS NOI and cash-basis SS NOI are relevant and widely used
measures of operating performance of real estate investment
trusts, they do not represent cash flow from operations or net
income as defined by GAAP and should not be considered as
alternatives to those measures in evaluating the companys
liquidity or operating performance. SS NOI and cash-basis SS NOI
also do not reflect general and administrative expenses,
restructuring charges, interest expenses, real estate impairment
losses, depreciation and amortization costs, capital
expenditures and leasing costs, or trends in development and
construction activities that could materially impact the
companys results from operations. Further, the
companys computation of SS NOI and cash-basis SS NOI may
not be comparable to that of other real estate companies, as
they may use different methodologies for calculating SS NOI and
cash-basis SS NOI.

As of March 31, 2010, the company had investments in
7.4 million square feet of operating properties through its
investments in non-managed unconsolidated joint ventures and
152,000 square feet, which is the location of its global
headquarters. |
|
(3) |
|
On a consolidated basis, the company had approximately
75.1 million rentable square feet with an occupancy rate of
88.7% at March 31, 2010. |
|
(4) |
|
Rent changes on renewals and rollovers are calculated as the
difference, weighted by square feet, of the net annualized base
rent (ABR) due the first month of a term commencement and the
net ABR due the last month of the former customers term.
If free rent is granted, then the first positive full rent value
is used as a point of comparison. The rental amounts exclude
base stop amounts, holdover rent and premium rent charges. If
either the previous or current lease terms are under
12 months, then they are excluded from this calculation. If
the lease is first generation or there is no prior lease for
comparison, then it is excluded from this calculation. |
|
(5) |
|
Second generation tenant improvements and leasing commissions
per square foot are the total cost of tenant improvements,
leasing commissions and other leasing costs incurred during
leasing of second generation space divided by the total square
feet leased. Costs incurred prior to leasing available space are
not included until such space is leased. Second generation space
excludes newly developed square footage or square footage vacant
at acquisition. |

Quantitative
and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|
Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market
prices, interest rates and international exchange rates. The
companys future earnings and cash flows are dependent upon
prevailing market rates. Accordingly, the
81
company manages its market risk by matching projected cash
inflows from operating, investing and financing activities with
projected cash outflows for debt service, acquisitions, capital
expenditures, distributions to stockholders and unitholders,
payments to noteholders, and other cash requirements. The
majority of the companys outstanding debt has fixed
interest rates, which minimize the risk of fluctuating interest
rates. The companys exposure to market risk includes
interest rate fluctuations in connection with its credit
facilities and other variable rate borrowings and its ability to
incur more debt without stockholder and unitholder approval,
thereby increasing its debt service obligations, which could
adversely affect its cash flows. As of March 31, 2010, the
company had two outstanding interest rate swaps, four
outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts and two interest
rate caps with an aggregate notional amount of
$954.4 million (in U.S. dollars). See Financial
Instruments below.
The table below summarizes the maturities and interest rates
associated with the companys fixed and variable rate debt
outstanding at book value and estimated fair value before
unamortized net discounts of $9.5 million as of
March 31, 2010 (dollars in thousands):

If market rates of interest on the companys variable rate
debt increased or decreased by 10%, then the increase or
decrease in interest cost on the companys variable rate
debt would be $1.9 million (net of the swap) annually. As
of March 31, 2010, the book value and the estimated fair
value of the companys total consolidated debt (both
secured and unsecured) were both $3.3 billion, based on the
companys estimate of current market interest rates. As of
December 31, 2009, the book value and the estimated fair
value of the companys total consolidated debt (both
secured and unsecured) were both $3.2 billion, based on our
estimate of current market interest rates.
As of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, variable
rate debt comprised 37.0% and 38.8%, respectively, of all the
companys outstanding debt. Variable rate debt was
$1.2 billion as of both March 31, 2010 and
December 31, 2009.
Financial Instruments. The company records all
derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value as an asset or
liability. For derivatives that qualify as cash flow hedges, the
offset to this entry is to accumulated other comprehensive
income as a separate component of stockholders equity for
the parent company, partners capital for the operating
partnership or income. For derivatives which do not qualify as
cash flow hedges, the offset to the change in fair value on the
derivative asset or liability is recorded directly in earnings
as gains or losses through other income (expenses). For revenues
or expenses denominated in non-functional currencies, the
company may use derivative financial instruments to manage
foreign currency exchange rate risk. The companys
derivative financial instruments in effect at March 31,
2010 were two interest rate swaps and two interest rate caps
hedging cash flows of variable rate borrowings based on
U.S. LIBOR and four foreign exchange forward contracts
hedging intercompany loans. The company does not hold or issue
derivatives for trading purposes.

International Operations. The companys
exposure to market risk also includes foreign currency exchange
rate risk. The U.S. dollar is the functional currency for
the companys subsidiaries operating in the United States,
Mexico and certain subsidiaries in Europe. The functional
currency for the companys subsidiaries operating outside
the United States, other than Mexico and certain subsidiaries in
Europe, is generally the local currency of the country in which
the entity or property is located, mitigating the effect of
foreign exchange gains and losses. The companys
subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the
U.S. dollar translate their financial statements into
U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated at the
exchange rate in effect as of the financial statement date. The
company translates income statement accounts using the average
exchange rate for the period and significant nonrecurring
transactions using the rate on the transaction date. The gains
(losses) resulting from the translation are included in
accumulated other comprehensive income as a separate component
of stockholders equity for the parent company or
partners capital for the operating partnership and totaled
$0.6 million and $(34.0) million for the three months
ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
The companys international subsidiaries may have
transactions denominated in currencies other than their
functional currency. In these instances, non-monetary assets and
liabilities are reflected at the historical exchange rate,
monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at the exchange
rate in effect at the end of the period and income statement
accounts are remeasured at the average exchange rate for the
period. The company also records gains or losses in the income
statement when a transaction with a third party, denominated in
a currency other than the entitys functional currency, is
settled and the functional currency cash flows realized are more
or less than expected based upon the exchange rate in effect
when the transaction was initiated. For the three months ended
March 31,
83
2010 and 2009, total unrealized and realized (losses) gains from
remeasurement and translation included in the companys
results of operations were $(1.0) million and
$4.7 million, respectively.
Item 4.
Controls
and Procedures (AMB Property Corporation)
The parent company maintains disclosure controls and procedures
that are designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed in its reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the time periods specified in the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and
forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated
to its management, including its chief executive officer and
chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and
evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, the parent
companys management recognizes that any controls and
procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can
provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired
control objectives, and its management is required to apply its
judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible
controls and procedures. Also, the parent company has
investments in certain unconsolidated entities, which are
accounted for using the equity method of accounting. As the
parent company does not control or manage these entities, its
disclosure controls and procedures with respect to such entities
may be substantially more limited than those it maintains with
respect to its consolidated subsidiaries.
As required by
Rule 13a-15(b)
or
Rule 15d-15(b)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, management
of the parent company carried out an evaluation, under the
supervision and with participation of its chief executive
officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the
design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures
that were in effect as of the end of the quarter covered by this
report. Based on the foregoing, the parent companys chief
executive officer and chief financial officer each concluded
that its disclosure controls and procedures were effective at
the reasonable assurance level.
There have been no changes in the parent companys internal
control over financial reporting during its most recent fiscal
quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely
to materially affect, its internal control over financial
reporting.
Controls
and Procedures (AMB Property, L.P.)
The operating partnership maintains disclosure controls and
procedures that are designed to ensure that information required
to be disclosed in its reports filed under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and
forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated
to its management, including the chief executive officer and
chief financial officer of its general partner, as appropriate,
to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In
designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures,
the operating partnerships management recognizes that any
controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and
operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the
desired control objectives, and its management is required to
apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship
of possible controls and procedures. Also, the operating
partnership has investments in certain unconsolidated entities,
which are accounted for using the equity method of accounting.
As the operating partnership does not control or manage these
entities, its disclosure controls and procedures with respect to
such entities may be substantially more limited than those it
maintains with respect to its consolidated subsidiaries.
As required by
Rule 13a-15(b)
or
Rule 15d-15(b)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, management
of the operating partnership carried out an evaluation, under
the supervision and with participation of the chief executive
officer and chief financial officer of its general partner, of
the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure
controls and procedures that were in effect as of the end of the
quarter covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, the
chief executive officer and chief financial officer of the
operating partnerships general partner each concluded that
its disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the
reasonable assurance level.
There have been no changes in the operating partnerships
internal control over financial reporting during its most recent
fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably
likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial
reporting.
