Stratus Properties Inc. Reports First-Quarter 2023 Results

Stratus Properties Inc. (NASDAQ: STRS), a diversified real estate company with holdings, interests and operations in the Austin, Texas area and other select markets in Texas, today reported first-quarter 2023 results.

Highlights and Recent Developments:

  • Net loss attributable to common stockholders totaled $5.8 million, or $0.71 per diluted share, in first-quarter 2023, compared to net income attributable to common stockholders of $2.3 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, in first-quarter 2022.
  • Stratus’ total stockholders’ equity increased to $200.9 million at March 31, 2023, from $158.1 million at December 31, 2021, primarily as a result of the gain realized on Stratus’ sale of Block 21 in 2022.
  • In first-quarter 2023, Stratus obtained third-party equity and debt financing for and commenced construction on Holden Hills, designed to feature 475 unique residences within the Barton Creek community in Austin, Texas. The Holden Hills limited partnership distributed and paid $35.8 million in cash to Stratus.
  • In 2022, Stratus’ Board approved a share repurchase program, which authorizes repurchases of up to $10.0 million of Stratus’ common stock. Through May 10, 2023, Stratus has acquired 359,553 shares of its common stock for a total cost of $9.2 million at an average price of $25.64 per share.
  • Stratus had $50.9 million of cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2023 and no amounts drawn on its revolving credit facility.
  • Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) totaled $(4.2) million in first-quarter 2023, compared to $2.4 million in first-quarter 2022. EBITDA does not reflect net income from discontinued operations, which was $0.4 million in 2022, related to Block 21. For a reconciliation of net (loss) income from continuing operations to EBITDA, see the supplemental schedule, “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measure EBITDA,” below.
  • Stratus continues construction on The Saint June, a 182-unit luxury garden-style multi-family project within the Amarra development in Barton Creek. The first units are expected to be ready for occupancy in June 2023, and the project is expected to be completed in third-quarter 2023. Stratus also continues construction on The Saint George and on the last ten Amarra Villas homes.
  • Stratus’ three stabilized mixed-use projects anchored or shadow-anchored by H-E-B grocery stores, Kingwood Place, Jones Crossing, and West Killeen Market, and its fourth stabilized mixed-use project Lantana Place, continue to perform well. At Magnolia Place, an H-E-B grocery shadow-anchored, mixed-use project in Magnolia, Texas, Stratus has signed leases for all the retail space in the first phase of development.

William H. Armstrong III, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Stratus, stated, “Our track record of strong execution continued in the first quarter during which we secured financing for and began construction on the unique and beautiful Holden Hills, the crown jewel of our more than 30 years of residential development in Barton Creek. In connection with the financing, the Holden Hills partnership distributed and paid $35.8 million in cash to Stratus in the first quarter. I am proud of our team’s hard work and ability to execute on our strategy while navigating the continued headwinds from rising inflation and interest rates. Supported by our strong liquidity position, we remain focused on completing our projects under development, controlling costs, continuing to source third-party equity capital and working to secure entitlements for our pipeline of future projects. Our team has the experience and dedication to see us through current economic conditions, and I believe our strong portfolio of projects in our Texas markets continues to position us well for the future.”

a.

The three months ended March 31, 2022 includes a $4.8 million pre-tax gain recognized on the reversal of accruals for costs to lease and construct buildings under a master lease arrangement that Stratus entered into in connection with its sale of The Oaks at Lakeway in 2017.

b.

Includes consolidated general and administrative expenses and eliminations of intersegment amounts. The increase in 2023 from 2022 is primarily the result of higher compensation costs for salary increases, estimated cash incentive awards for 2023, as well as restricted stock units (RSUs) granted in second-quarter 2022 in connection with the Profit Participation Incentive Plan (PPIP) payouts for Lantana Place and The Santal. Fees related to a new consulting arrangement in 2023 to help raise third-party equity capital and office rent, which was eliminated in consolidation prior to the sale of Block 21, also contributed to the increase.

c.

Represents noncontrolling interest partners' share in the results of the consolidated projects in which they participate.

Continuing Operations

The increase in revenue from the Real Estate Operations segment in first-quarter 2023, compared to first-quarter 2022, reflects the sale of one Amarra Villas home compared to no sales in first-quarter 2022.

The increase in revenue from the Leasing Operations segment in first-quarter 2023, compared to first-quarter 2022, primarily reflects revenue from Magnolia Place, which had no rental revenue in first-quarter 2022, and increased revenue at Kingwood Place.

Debt and Liquidity

At March 31, 2023, Stratus had $50.9 million in cash and cash equivalents, compared to $37.7 million at December 31, 2022. At March 31, 2023, consolidated debt totaled $128.3 million compared with consolidated debt of $122.8 million at December 31, 2022. In February 2023, a Stratus subsidiary entered into a three-year $26.1 million construction loan with Comerica Bank, guaranteed by Stratus, to finance the development of Phase I of Holden Hills. No amounts were drawn on this construction loan as of March 31, 2023.

As of March 31, 2023, Stratus had $42.7 million available under its revolving credit facility and no amount was borrowed. Letters of credit, totaling $11.0 million, have been issued under the revolving credit facility, and secure Stratus’ obligation to build certain roads and utilities facilities benefiting Holden Hills and Section N. In March 2023, we entered into an amendment to the revolving credit facility, which extended the maturity date to March 27, 2025 and increased the floor of the facility’s benchmark rate. As amended, advances under the revolving credit facility bear interest at the one-month Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index (BSBY) Rate (with a floor of 0.50 percent) plus 4.00 percent.

Purchases and development of real estate properties (included in operating cash flows) and capital expenditures (included in investing cash flows) totaled $19.0 million for 2023, primarily related to the development of Barton Creek properties (including The Saint June, Amarra Villas and Holden Hills) and The Saint George, compared with $19.6 million for 2022, primarily related to the development of The Saint June, Magnolia Place and Barton Creek properties, including Amarra Villas.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT

This press release contains forward-looking statements in which Stratus discusses factors it believes may affect its future performance. Forward-looking statements are all statements other than statements of historical fact, such as plans, projections or expectations related to the impact of inflation and interest rate changes, supply chain constraints and tightening bank credit, Stratus’ ability to meet its future debt service and other cash obligations, future cash flows and liquidity, Stratus’ expectations about the Austin and Texas real estate markets, the planning, financing, development, construction, completion and stabilization of Stratus’ development projects, plans to sell, recapitalize, or refinance properties, future operational and financial performance, municipal utility district (MUD) reimbursements for infrastructure costs, regulatory matters, leasing activities, tax rates, future capital expenditures and financing plans, possible joint ventures, partnerships, or other strategic relationships, other plans and objectives of management for future operations and development projects, the impacts of any major public health crisis, and future cash returns to shareholders, including the timing and amount of repurchases under Stratus’ share repurchase program. The words “anticipate,” “may,” “can,” “plan,” “believe,” “potential,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” "target," “intend,” “likely,” “will,” “should,” “to be” and any similar expressions and/or statements are intended to identify those assertions as forward-looking statements.

Under Stratus’ Comerica Bank debt agreements, Stratus is not permitted to repurchase its common stock in excess of $1.0 million or pay dividends on its common stock without Comerica Bank’s prior written consent, which was obtained in connection with the special cash dividend and share repurchase program. Any future declaration of dividends or decision to repurchase Stratus’ common stock is at the discretion of Stratus’ Board, subject to restrictions under Stratus’ Comerica Bank debt agreements, and will depend on Stratus’ financial results, cash requirements, projected compliance with covenants in its debt agreements, outlook and other factors deemed relevant by the Board. Stratus’ future debt agreements, future refinancings of or amendments to existing debt agreements or other future agreements may restrict Stratus’ ability to declare dividends or repurchase shares.

Stratus cautions readers that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, and its actual results may differ materially from those anticipated, expected, projected or assumed in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that can cause Stratus’ actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, Stratus’ ability to implement its business strategy successfully, including its ability to develop, construct and sell or lease properties on terms its Board considers acceptable, increases in operating and construction costs, including real estate taxes and the cost of building materials and labor, increases in inflation and interest rates, supply chain constraints, tightening bank credit, defaults by contractors and subcontractors, declines in the market value of Stratus’ assets, market conditions or corporate developments that could preclude, impair or delay any opportunities with respect to plans to sell, recapitalize or refinance properties, a decrease in the demand for real estate in select markets in Texas where Stratus operates, particularly in Austin, changes in economic, market, tax and business conditions, including as a result of the war in Ukraine, potential U.S. or local economic downturn or recession or failure of the U.S. Congress to raise the statutory debt limit, the availability and terms of financing for development projects and other corporate purposes, the failure of any bank in which Stratus deposits funds, any major public health crisis, Stratus’ ability to collect anticipated rental payments and close projected asset sales, loss of key personnel, Stratus’ ability to enter into and maintain joint ventures, partnerships, or other strategic relationships, including risks associated with such joint ventures, Stratus’ ability to pay or refinance its debt, extend maturity dates of its loans or comply with or obtain waivers of financial and other covenants in debt agreements and to meet other cash obligations, eligibility for and potential receipt and timing of receipt of MUD reimbursements, industry risks, changes in buyer preferences, potential additional impairment charges, competition from other real estate developers, Stratus’ ability to obtain various entitlements and permits, changes in laws, regulations or the regulatory environment affecting the development of real estate, opposition from special interest groups or local governments with respect to development projects, weather- and climate-related risks, environmental and litigation risks, the failure to attract buyers or tenants for Stratus’ developments or such buyers’ or tenants’ failure to satisfy their purchase commitments or leasing obligations, cybersecurity incidents and other factors described in more detail under the heading “Risk Factors” in Stratus’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Investors are cautioned that many of the assumptions upon which Stratus’ forward-looking statements are based are likely to change after the date the forward-looking statements are made. Further, Stratus may make changes to its business plans that could affect its results. Stratus cautions investors that it undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made, notwithstanding any changes in its assumptions, business plans, actual experience, or other changes.

This press release also includes EBITDA, which is not recognized under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Stratus’ management believes this measure can be helpful to investors in evaluating its business because EBITDA is a financial measure frequently used by securities analysts, lenders and others to evaluate Stratus' recurring operating performance. EBITDA is intended to be a performance measure that should not be regarded as more meaningful than GAAP measures. Other companies may calculate EBITDA differently. As required by SEC rules, a reconciliation of Stratus' net (loss) income from continuing operations to EBITDA is included in the supplemental schedule of this press release.

A copy of this release is available on Stratus’ website, stratusproperties.com.

STRATUS PROPERTIES INC.

BUSINESS SEGMENTS

As a result of the sale of Block 21, Stratus has two operating segments: Real Estate Operations and Leasing Operations. Block 21, which encompassed Stratus’ Hotel and Entertainment segments, along with some leasing operations, is presented as discontinued operations.

The Real Estate Operations segment is comprised of Stratus’ real estate assets (developed for sale, under development and available for development), which consists of its properties in Austin, Texas (including the Barton Creek Community, which includes Section N, Holden Hills, Amarra multi-family and commercial land, Amarra Villas, The Saint June, Amarra Drive lots and other vacant land; the Circle C community; the Lantana community, which includes a portion of Lantana Place planned for a multi-family phase now known as The Saint Julia; The Saint George; and the land for The Annie B); in Lakeway, Texas, located in the greater Austin area (Lakeway); in College Station, Texas (land for future phases of retail and multi-family development and retail pad sites at Jones Crossing); and in Magnolia, Texas (land for a future phase of retail development and for future multi-family use and retail pad sites at Magnolia Place), Kingwood, Texas (a retail pad site) and New Caney, Texas (New Caney), each located in the greater Houston area.

The Leasing Operations segment is comprised of Stratus’ real estate assets held for investment that are leased or available for lease and includes retail space at West Killeen Market, Lantana Place, Kingwood Place and the completed portions of Jones Crossing and Magnolia Place and retail pad sites subject to ground leases at Lantana Place, Kingwood Place and Jones Crossing.

Stratus uses operating income or loss to measure the performance of each segment. General and administrative expenses, which primarily consist of employee salaries, wages and other costs, are managed on a consolidated basis and are not allocated to Stratus’ operating segments. The following segment information reflects management determinations that may not be indicative of what the actual financial performance of each segment would be if it were an independent entity.

Summarized financial information by segment for the three months ended March 31, 2023, based on Stratus’ internal financial reporting system utilized by its chief operating decision maker, follows (in thousands):

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP MEASURE

EBITDA

EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is a non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S.) financial measure that is frequently used by securities analysts, investors, lenders and others to evaluate companies’ recurring operating performance, including, among other things, profitability before the effect of financing and similar decisions. Because securities analysts, investors, lenders and others use EBITDA, management believes that Stratus’ presentation of EBITDA affords them greater transparency in assessing its financial performance. This information differs from net (loss) income from continuing operations determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance determined in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, as different companies may calculate such measures differently. Management strongly encourages investors to review Stratus’ consolidated financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety. A reconciliation of Stratus’ net (loss) income from continuing operations to EBITDA follows (in thousands):

a.

For first-quarter 2022, includes a $4.8 million pre-tax gain recognized on the reversal of accruals for costs to lease and construct buildings under a master lease arrangement that Stratus entered into in connection with its sale of The Oaks at Lakeway in 2017.

b.

EBITDA does not reflect net income from discontinued operations, which was $0.4 million in first-quarter 2022, related to Block 21. The impact of accounting for the Block 21 sale as discontinued operations reduced EBITDA by $2.5 million in first-quarter 2022.
