Bedford Property Investors, Inc. (NYSE:BED) today announced its
financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended
September 30, 2005. Diluted earnings per share of common stock
(EPS) for the third quarter of 2005 was $0.11 compared with diluted
EPS of $0.21 achieved for the third quarter of 2004. EPS for the
nine months ended September 30, 2005 was $1.10 compared with $0.81
for the nine months of 2004. Funds from operations (FFO) per share
of common stock for the third quarter of 2005 was $0.41 compared
with FFO per share of $0.69 achieved for the third quarter of 2004.
FFO per share of common stock for the first nine months of 2005 was
$1.30 compared with FFO per share of common stock of $2.17 achieved
in the first nine months of 2004. Financial Results Net income
available to common stockholders for the third quarter of 2005
decreased by approximately $1,615,000 when compared with the third
quarter of 2004. The decrease is primarily due to the decreases in
income from continuing operations of $2,302,000 and income from
discontinued operations of $2,171,000, partially offset by gain on
sale of $2,744,000. Net income available to common stockholders for
the first nine months of 2005 increased by approximately $4,319,000
when compared with the same period in 2004. The increase in net
income available to common stockholders for the first nine months
of 2005 is mainly due to gains of approximately $18,983,000
realized from the sales of operating properties, partially offset
by decreases in income from continuing operations of $6,691,000 and
income of discontinued operations of $5,800,000, and an increase in
preferred dividends of $2,173,000. Income from continuing
operations (which excludes the operating results from properties
sold and gains on sales) for the third quarter and the first nine
months of 2005 decreased $2,302,000 and $6,691,000, respectively,
when compared to the same periods in 2004. These decreases are the
result of the loss of net operating income from the properties we
sold in 2004 and 2005, continued rental rate reductions on our
lease renewals and re-leasing activities, declines in the operating
portfolio occupancy, and increases in depreciation expense,
primarily due to improvements of real estate and properties
acquired and developed in 2004 and 2005. These decreases were
partially offset by additional net operating income resulting from
the properties acquired in 2004 and development activities in 2004
and 2005. FFO for the third quarter of 2005 was approximately
$6,427,000, compared to approximately $11,064,000 for the same
period in 2004. FFO for the nine months ended September 30, 2005
was approximately $20,484,000, compared to approximately
$34,934,000 for the same period in 2004. FFO is a non-GAAP
financial measurement used by real estate investment trusts to
measure and compare operating performance and is generally defined
as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding
extraordinary items and gains or losses from sales of property,
plus depreciation and amortization of assets related to real
estate, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and
joint ventures. A reconciliation of our FFO to our net income
available to common stockholders (the most directly comparable GAAP
measure) is included in the financial data accompanying this press
release. Property Operations As of September 30, 2005, we owned and
managed approximately 7.5 million square feet of suburban office
and industrial properties which consisted of 82 operating
properties totaling approximately 7 million square feet and five
development and rehabilitation projects totaling approximately
471,000 square feet. At the end of the third quarter of 2005, our
7.5 million square foot portfolio was 84% occupied, while our
operating portfolio was 89% occupied. During the third quarter of
2005, we renewed and re-leased 180,347 square feet, or 68%, of the
expiring square footage of 265,285. The average change in rental
rates (on a cash basis) in these new leases was a decrease of
17.4%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, we renewed and
re-leased 787,274 square feet, or 69%, of the expiring square
footage. The average change in rental rates (on a cash basis) in
these new leases was a decrease of 15.3%. Property Dispositions In
the third quarter of 2005, we sold one operating property for
$9,500,000. This sale consisted of a vacant R&D building of
87,953 square feet and generated a gain on sale of real estate
investments of approximately $2,744,000. During the nine months
ended September 30, 2005, we sold seven operating properties in
three transactions for a total of $53,050,000. These sales
consisted of two office and five R & D buildings totaling
379,919 square feet and generated aggregate gains on sale of real
estate investments of $18,733,000. In addition, we recorded a gain
of $250,000 from funds released from escrow in the first quarter of
2005 in connection with a property sold in the fourth quarter of
2004. Stock Repurchase During the third quarter of 2005, we
repurchased 234,316 shares of our common stock at an average cost
of $22.10 per share. Of the 234,316 shares repurchased, 6,482
shares were repurchased from our employees in connection with the
exercise of stock options. The remaining 227,834 shares were
repurchased on the open market pursuant to our common stock share
repurchase program. Since the inception of this repurchase program
in November 1998, we have repurchased a total of 8,928,660 shares
of our common stock at an average cost of $19.38 per share, which
represents 39.4% of the shares of common stock outstanding at
November 30, 1998. Company Information We are a self-administered

=========== =========== (1) Although FFO is not a financial measure
calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), we believe that
FFO is an appropriate alternative measure of the performance of an
equity real estate investment trust (REIT). Presentation of this
information provides the reader with an additional measure to
compare the performance of equity REITs. FFO is generally defined
by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts as net
income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding
extraordinary items such as gains (losses) from sales of property,
plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for
unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO as set forth in
the table above has been computed in accordance with this
definition. FFO does not represent cash generated by operating
activities in accordance with GAAP; it is not necessarily
indicative of cash available to fund cash needs and should not be
considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as an indicator
of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a
measure of liquidity. Furthermore, FFO as disclosed by other REITs
may not be comparable to our presentation. The most directly
comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP to
FFO is net income available to common stockholders. *T
