Piedmont Office Realty Trust Reports Fourth Quarter and Annual 2024 Results
ATLANTA, February 13, 2025--Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. ("Piedmont" or the "Company") (NYSE:PDM), an owner of Class A office properties located primarily in major U.S. Sunbelt markets, today announced its results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2024.
Highlights for the Three Months and Year Ended December 31, 2024:

Financial Results:

Executive separation costs$4,831$—$4,831$—
Interest expense, net of interest income$30,100$28,185$119,243$97,722
NAREIT FFO applicable to common stock$41,605$50,624$180,350$214,399

Adjusted FFO applicable to common stock$27,671$31,833$109,239$153,008
Same Store NOI - cash basis0.9 %2.6 %
Same Store NOI - accrual basis2.5 %1.6 %

Piedmont recognized a net loss of $30.0 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2024, as compared to a net loss of $28.0 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2023, with both periods reflecting impairment charges and elevated interest expense, net of interest income, as a result of recent refinancing activity in a higher interest rate environment. Additionally, the results for the fourth quarter of 2024 included $4.8 million of executive separation costs.

Core FFO, which removes the impairment charges and separation costs mentioned above, as well as loss on sale of real estate assets, loss on early extinguishment of debt, and depreciation and amortization expense, was $0.37 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2024, as compared to $0.41 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2023. Approximately $0.02 of the decrease is due to the increased interest expense, net of interest income, mentioned above, with the remaining



decrease attributable to the sale of two properties and the downtime between the expiration of a few large leases during the year ended December 31, 2024, before newly executed leases commence.

Same Store NOI - cash basis for the three months and year ended December 31, 2024 increased 0.9% and 2.6%, respectively, reflecting the fourth straight year of positive growth.

Cash rent roll up11.5 %11.9 %
Accrual rent roll up14.7 %18.9 %
Leased Percentage as of period end88.4 %
The Company completed approximately 433,000 square feet of leasing during the fourth quarter, bringing total completed leasing for the year to approximately 2.4 million square feet, the most leasing completed on an annual basis since 2015 and above the Company's original expected 2024 leasing goal.
Over a million square feet, or 42%, of the Company's 2024 leasing activity pertained to new tenant leasing, which is the largest amount of new leasing the Company has completed in a year since 2016.
Rental rates on leases executed during the three months and year ended December 31, 2024 for space vacant one year or less increased approximately 11.5% and 11.9% on a cash basis, respectively, and 14.7% and 18.9% on an accrual basis, respectively.
The Company's leased percentage for its in-service portfolio as of December 31, 2024 was 88.4%, as compared to 87.1% as of December 31, 2023, with the increase attributable to net leasing activity completed, as well as the sale of two assets and the reclassification of two projects to out-of-service, during the year ended December 31, 2024.
As of December 31, 2024, the Company had approximately 1.4 million square feet of executed leases for vacant space that is yet to commence or is currently under rental abatement, representing approximately $46 million of future additional annual cash rents.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company's total liquidity was $710 million comprised of an unused $600 million line of credit and approximately $110 million in cash and cash equivalents.

Subsequent to December 31, 2024, the Company amended its $200 million syndicated bank term loan to increase the principal amount of the loan by $125 million (to a total of $325 million) and add two six month extension options for a final maturity date of January 29, 2028. The net proceeds from the increased principal, along with cash on hand and the Company's line of credit were used to repay a $250 million unsecured bank term loan that was scheduled to mature in March of 2025.
Also subsequent to December 31, 2024, the Company recast its $600 million revolving credit facility to extend the maturity date to June 30, 2028, with two additional one year extension options, for a final maturity date of June 30, 2030. The Company currently has approximately $500 million of availability under this $600 million revolving credit facility.
As a result of the above refinancing activity, the Company currently has no debt with a final maturity until 2028.

ESG and Operations:
Five projects in the Company's portfolio won TOBY (The Outstanding Building of the Year) recognition in their respective categories during the fourth quarter.
As of December 31, 2024, approximately 84% and 72% of the Company's portfolio was ENERGY STAR rated and LEED certified, respectively, and 61% of its portfolio is certified LEED gold or higher.
Commenting on the Company's results, Brent Smith, Piedmont's President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "2024 was an extremely successful year from a leasing perspective as we completed the greatest volume of leasing on an annual basis since 2015. Over a million square feet of that leasing was related to new tenant leases, resulting in absorption for our in-service portfolio and a year-end leased percentage of 88.4%, significantly above our original projections for the year. Furthermore, the leases we executed during 2024 reflected strong rental rate growth - approximately 12% on a cash basis and almost 20% on an accrual basis. At the end of 2024 our contractual backlog of leased space yet to commence or begin paying cash rents, stood at $46 million of future annual cash flow, which we expect will bolster our financial results during the latter half of 2025 as those leases commence or reach the end of their abatement period. Continuing, Mr. Smith added "Further, the refinancing activity we completed today means that we have no remaining debt with a final maturity until 2028."




First Quarter 2025 Dividend

As previously announced, on February 3, 2025, the board of directors of Piedmont declared a dividend for the first quarter of 2025 in the amount of $0.125 per share on its common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 21, 2025, payable on March 14, 2025.

Guidance for 2025

The Company is introducing guidance for the year ending December 31, 2025 as follows:

(in millions, except per share data)LowHigh
Net loss$(49)$(46)
Add:
Depreciation 165 168 
Amortization58 60 
NAREIT FFO applicable to common stock174 182 
Loss on early extinguishment of debt0.5 0.5 
Core FFO applicable to common stock$175 $183 
Core FFO applicable to common stock per diluted share$1.38$1.44

This guidance is based on information available to management as of the date of this release and reflects management's view of current market conditions, including the following specific assumptions and projections:

Property Operation Assumptions:
Executed leasing for the year of approximately 1.4-1.6 million square feet resulting in an increase in the anticipated year-end leased percentage for the Company's in-service portfolio to approximately 89-90%, exclusive of any speculative acquisition or disposition activity;
Same Store NOI of flat to 3% increase on both a cash and accrual basis for the year;

Financing Assumptions:

Interest expense (net of interest income) of approximately $127-129 million as compared to $119 million in 2024, reflecting a full year of higher interest rates as a result of refinancing activity completed by the Company during 2024 and early 2025;

Other Assumptions:
General and administrative expense of approximately $30-32 million;
Weighted average shares outstanding of 126-127 million;
No speculative acquisitions, dispositions, or refinancing are included in the above guidance. The Company will adjust guidance if such transactions occur.

Below is a roll forward of 2024 Actual Core FFO per diluted share to the Company's 2025 Guidance Range, given the assumptions listed above:



LowHigh
2024 Annual Core FFO (actual)$1.49 $1.49 
Increase in property net operating income0.04 0.08 
Decrease in property net operating income due to 2024 dispositions of assets(0.02)(0.02)
Increase in interest expense (net of interest income)(0.08)(0.07)
Increase in general and administrative costs(0.02)(0.01)
Decrease in third-party management revenue(0.01)(0.01)
$(0.09)$(0.03)
Dilution due to increase in weighted average shares outstanding(0.02)(0.02)
2025 Annual Core FFO Guidance Range$1.38 $1.44

Note that actual results could differ materially from these estimates and individual quarters may fluctuate on both a cash basis and an accrual basis due to the timing of any future dispositions, significant lease commencements and expirations, abatement periods, repairs and maintenance expenses, capital expenditures, capital markets activities, general and administrative expenses, accrued potential performance-based compensation expense, one-time revenue or expense events, and other factors discussed under "Forward Looking Statements" below.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the presentation of the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), this release and the accompanying quarterly supplemental information as of and for the period ended December 31, 2024 contain certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, including FFO, Core FFO, AFFO, Same Store NOI (cash and accrual basis), Property NOI (cash and accrual basis), EBITDAre, and Core EBITDA. Definitions and reconciliations of each of these non-GAAP measures to their most comparable GAAP metrics are included below and in the accompanying quarterly supplemental information.
Each of the non-GAAP measures included in this release and the accompanying quarterly supplemental financial information has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of the Company’s results calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, the Company’s presentation of non-GAAP measures in this release and the accompanying quarterly supplemental information may not be comparable to similarly titled measures disclosed by other companies, including other REITs. The Company may also change the calculation of any of the non-GAAP measures included in this release and the accompanying quarterly supplemental financial information from time to time in light of its then existing operations.

Such information is subject to certain known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated. Therefore, such statements are not intended to be a guarantee of the Company`s performance in future periods. Such forward-looking statements can generally be identified by the Company's use of forward-looking terminology such as "may," "will," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "believe," "continue" or similar words or phrases that indicate predictions of future events or trends or that do not relate solely to historical matters.

The following are some of the factors that could cause the Company's actual results and its expectations to differ materially from those described in the Company's forward-looking statements:



Economic, regulatory, socio-economic (including work from home and "hybrid" work policies), technological (e.g. artificial intelligence and machine learning, virtual meeting platforms, etc.), and other changes that impact the real estate market generally, the office sector or the patterns of use of commercial office space in general, or the markets where we primarily operate or have high concentrations of revenue;
The impact of competition on our efforts to renew existing leases or re-let space on terms similar to existing leases;
Lease terminations, lease defaults, lease contractions, or changes in the financial condition of our tenants, particularly by one of our large tenants;
Impairment charges on our long-lived assets or goodwill resulting therefrom;
The success of our real estate strategies and investment objectives, including our ability to implement successful redevelopment and development strategies or identify and consummate suitable acquisitions and divestitures;
The illiquidity of real estate investments, including economic changes, such as rising interest rates, costs of construction and available financing, which could impact the number of buyers/sellers of our target properties, and regulatory restrictions to which real estate investment trusts ("REITs") are subject and the resulting impediment on our ability to quickly respond to adverse changes in the performance of our properties;
The risks and uncertainties associated with our acquisition and disposition of properties, many of which risks and uncertainties may not be known at the time of acquisition or disposition;
Development and construction delays, including the potential of supply chain disruptions, and resultant increased costs and risks;
Future acts of terrorism, civil unrest, or armed hostilities in any of the major metropolitan areas in which we own properties;
Risks related to the occurrence of cybersecurity incidents, including cybersecurity incidents against us or any of our properties, vendors, or tenants, or a deficiency in our identification, assessment or management of cybersecurity threats impacting our operations and the public's reaction to reported cybersecurity incidents, including the reputational impact on our business and value of our common stock;
Costs of complying with governmental laws and regulations, including environmental standards imposed on office building owners;
Uninsured losses or losses in excess of our insurance coverage, and our inability to obtain adequate insurance coverage at a reasonable cost;
Additional risks and costs associated with directly managing properties occupied by government tenants, such as potential changes in the political environment, a reduction in federal or state funding of our governmental tenants, or an increased risk of default by government tenants during periods in which state or federal governments are shut down or on furlough;
Significant price and volume fluctuations in the public markets, including on the exchange which we listed our common stock;
Risks associated with incurring mortgage and other indebtedness, including changing capital reserve requirements on our lenders and rising interest rates for new debt financings;
A downgrade in our credit ratings, the credit ratings of Piedmont Operating Partnership, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership") or the credit ratings of our or the Operating Partnership's unsecured debt securities, which could, among other effects, trigger an increase in the stated rate of one or more of our unsecured debt instruments;
The effect of future offerings of debt or equity securities on the value of our common stock;
Additional risks and costs associated with inflation and potential increases in the rate of inflation, including the impact of a possible recession, and any changes in governmental rules, regulations, and fiscal policies;



Uncertainties associated with environmental and regulatory matters;
Changes in the financial condition of our tenants directly or indirectly resulting from geopolitical developments that could negatively affect important supply chains and international trade, the termination or threatened termination of existing international trade agreements, or the implementation of tariffs or retaliatory tariffs on imported or exported goods;
The effect of any litigation to which we are, or may become, subject;
Additional risks and costs associated with owning properties occupied by tenants in particular industries, such as oil and gas, hospitality, travel, co-working, etc., including risks of default during start-up and during economic downturns;
Changes in tax laws impacting REITs and real estate in general, as well as our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or other tax law changes which may adversely affect our stockholders;
The future effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures;
Actual or threatened public health epidemics or outbreaks of highly infectious or contagious diseases, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as immediate and long-term governmental and private measures taken to combat such health crises; and
Other factors, including the risk factors described in Item 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

*Definitions:

Funds From Operations ("FFO"): The Company calculates FFO in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition. NAREIT currently defines FFO as net income/(loss) (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding depreciation and amortization related to real estate, gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, gains and losses from change in control, and impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets, goodwill, and investment in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity, along with appropriate adjustments to those reconciling items for joint ventures, if any. These adjustments can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of depreciation, amortization and gains or losses from sales of real estate, all of which are based on historical costs, which implicitly assumes that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time. The Company also believes that FFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. However, other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of FFO may not be comparable to that of such other REITs.

Core Funds From Operations ("Core FFO"): The Company calculates Core FFO by starting with FFO, as defined by NAREIT, and adjusting for gains or losses on the extinguishment of swaps and/or debt and any significant non-recurring items. Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Core FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of certain infrequent or non-recurring items which can create significant earnings volatility, but which do not directly relate to the Company’s core business operations. As a result, the Company believes that Core FFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and provides a more meaningful predictor of future earnings potential. Other REITs may not define Core FFO in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Core FFO may not be comparable to that of other REITs.

Adjusted Funds From Operations ("AFFO"): The Company calculates AFFO by starting with Core FFO and adjusting for non-incremental capital expenditures and then adding back non-cash items including: non-real estate depreciation, straight-lined rents and fair value lease adjustments, non-cash components of interest expense and compensation expense, and by making similar adjustments for joint ventures, if any. AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that AFFO is helpful to investors as a meaningful supplemental comparative performance measure of our ability to make incremental capital investments. Other REITs may not define AFFO in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of AFFO may not be comparable to that of other REITs.

EBITDAre: The Company calculates EBITDAre in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition. NAREIT currently defines EBITDAre as net income/(loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) adjusted for gains or losses from sales of property, impairment charges, depreciation on real estate assets, amortization on real estate assets, interest expense and taxes, along with the same adjustments for joint ventures. Some of the adjustments mentioned can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. EBITDAre is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that EBITDAre is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it provides a metric for understanding the Company’s results from ongoing operations without taking into account the effects of non-cash expenses (such as depreciation and amortization) and capitalization and capital structure expenses (such as interest expense and taxes). The Company also believes that EBITDAre can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. However, other REITs may not define EBITDAre in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of EBITDAre may not be comparable to that of such other REITs.

Core EBITDA: The Company calculates Core EBITDA as net income/(loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and removing any impairment charges, gains or losses from sales of property and other significant infrequent items that create volatility within our earnings and make it difficult to determine the earnings generated by our core ongoing business. Core EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Core EBITDA is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it provides a metric for understanding the performance of the Company’s results from ongoing operations without taking into account the effects of non-cash expenses (such as depreciation and amortization), as well as items that are not part of normal day-to-day operations of the Company’s business. Other REITs may not define Core EBITDA in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Core EBITDA may not be comparable to that of other REITs.

Average Net Debt to Core EBITDA: Calculated using the sum of Core EBITDA for the trailing twelve month period and the average daily principal balance of debt outstanding for the trailing twelve months less the average balance of cash and escrow deposits and restricted cash during the trailing twelve month period.

Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI"): The Company calculates Property NOI by starting with Core EBITDA and adjusting for general and administrative expense, income associated with property management performed by Piedmont for other organizations and other income or expense items for the Company, such as interest income from loan investments or costs from the pursuit of non-consummated transactions. The Company may present this measure on an accrual basis or a cash basis. When presented on a cash basis, the effects of non-cash general reserve for uncollectible accounts, straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue are also eliminated. Property NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Property NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental comparative performance measure of income generated by its properties alone without the administrative overhead of the Company. Other REITs may not define Property NOI in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Property NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs.

Same Store Net Operating Income ("Same Store NOI"): The Company calculates Same Store NOI as Property NOI attributable to the properties for which the following criteria were met during the entire span of the current and prior year reporting periods: (i) they were owned, (ii) they were not under development / redevelopment, and (iii) none of the operating expenses for which were capitalized. Same Store NOI also excludes amounts attributable to land assets. The Company may present this measure on an accrual basis or a cash basis. Same Store NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Same Store NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental comparative performance measure of the income generated from the same group of properties from one



period to the next. Other REITs may not define Same Store NOI in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Same Store NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs.

Please refer to page 40 for a discussion of important risks related to the business of Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc., as well as an investment in its securities, including risks that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from results and events referred to in the forward-looking information. Considering these risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and limitations, the forward-looking statements about leasing, financial operations, leasing prospects, acquisitions, dispositions, etc. contained in this quarterly supplemental information report may differ from actual results.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period financial statement presentation. In addition, many of the schedules herein contain rounding to the nearest thousands or millions and, therefore, the schedules may not total due to this rounding convention.
To supplement the presentation of the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this report contains certain financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, including FFO, Core FFO, AFFO, Same Store NOI, Property NOI, EBITDAre and Core EBITDA. Definitions and reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to their most comparable GAAP metrics are included beginning on page 33. Each of the non-GAAP measures included in this report has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of the Company’s results calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, the Company’s presentation of non-GAAP measures in this report may not be comparable to similarly titled measures disclosed by other companies, including other REITs. The Company may also change the calculation of any of the non-GAAP measures included in this report from time to time in light of its then existing operations.

Piedmont Office Realty Trust Reports Fourth Quarter and Annual 2024 Results


ATLANTA, February 13, 2025--Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. ("Piedmont" or the "Company") (NYSE:PDM), an owner of Class A office properties located primarily in major U.S. Sunbelt markets, today announced its results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2024.

Highlights for the Three Months and Year Ended December 31, 2024:

Adjusted FFO applicable to common stock$27,671$31,833$109,239$153,008
Same Store NOI - cash basis0.9 %2.6 %
Same Store NOI - accrual basis2.5 %1.6 %
Piedmont recognized a net loss of $30.0 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2024, as compared to a net loss of $28.0 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2023, with both periods reflecting impairment charges and elevated interest expense, net of interest income, as a result of recent refinancing activity in a higher interest rate environment. Additionally, the results for the fourth quarter of 2024 included $4.8 million of executive separation costs.

Core FFO, which removes the impairment charges and separation costs mentioned above, as well as loss on sale of real estate assets, loss on early extinguishment of debt, and depreciation and amortization expense, was $0.37 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2024, as compared to $0.41 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2023. Approximately $0.02 of the decrease is due to the increased interest expense, net of interest income, mentioned above, with the remaining decrease attributable to the sale of two properties and the downtime between the expiration of a few large leases during the year ended December 31, 2024, before newly executed leases commence.

Same Store NOI - cash basis for the three months and year ended December 31, 2024 increased 0.9% and 2.6%, respectively, reflecting the fourth straight year of positive growth.

The Company completed approximately 433,000 square feet of leasing during the fourth quarter, bringing total completed leasing for the year to approximately 2.4 million square feet, the most leasing completed on an annual basis since 2015 and above the Company's original expected 2024 leasing goal.
Over a million square feet, or 42%, of the Company's 2024 leasing activity pertained to new tenant leasing, which is the largest amount of new leasing the Company has completed in a year since 2016.
Rental rates on leases executed during the three months and year ended December 31, 2024 for space vacant one year or less increased approximately 11.5% and 11.9% on a cash basis, respectively, and 14.7% and 18.9% on an accrual basis, respectively.
The Company's leased percentage for its in-service portfolio as of December 31, 2024 was 88.4%, as compared to 87.1% as of December 31, 2023, with the increase attributable to net leasing activity completed, as well as the sale of two assets and the reclassification of two projects to out-of-service, during the year ended December 31, 2024.
As of December 31, 2024, the Company had approximately 1.4 million square feet of executed leases for vacant space that is yet to commence or is currently under rental abatement, representing approximately $46 million of future additional annual cash rents.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company's total liquidity was $710 million comprised of an unused $600 million line of credit and approximately $110 million in cash and cash equivalents.
Subsequent to December 31, 2024, the Company amended its $200 million syndicated bank term loan to increase the principal amount of the loan by $125 million (to a total of $325 million) and add two six month extension options for a final maturity date of January 29, 2028. The net proceeds from the increased principal, along with cash on hand and the Company's line of credit were used to repay a $250 million unsecured bank term loan that was scheduled to mature in March of 2025.
Also subsequent to December 31, 2024, the Company recast its $600 million revolving credit facility to extend the maturity date to June 30, 2028, with two additional one year extension options, for a final maturity date of June 30, 2030. The Company currently has approximately $500 million of availability under this $600 million revolving credit facility.
As a result of the above refinancing activity, the Company currently has no debt with a final maturity until 2028.

ESG and Operations:
Five projects in the Company's portfolio won TOBY (The Outstanding Building of the Year) recognition in their respective categories during the fourth quarter.
As of December 31, 2024, approximately 84% and 72% of the Company's portfolio was ENERGY STAR rated and LEED certified, respectively, and 61% of its portfolio is certified LEED gold or higher.

Commenting on the Company's results, Brent Smith, Piedmont's President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "2024 was an extremely successful year from a leasing perspective as we completed the greatest volume of leasing on an annual basis since 2015. Over a million square feet of that leasing was related to new tenant leases, resulting in absorption for our in-service portfolio and a year-end leased percentage of 88.4%, significantly above our original projections for the year. Furthermore, the leases we executed during 2024 reflected strong rental rate growth - approximately 12% on a cash basis and almost 20% on an accrual basis. At the end of 2024 our contractual backlog of leased space yet to commence or begin paying cash rents, stood at $46 million of future annual cash flow, which we expect will bolster our financial results during the latter half of 2025 as those leases commence or reach the end of their abatement period. Continuing, Mr. Smith added "Further, the refinancing activity we completed today means that we have no remaining debt with a final maturity until 2028."

First Quarter 2025 Dividend:

As previously announced, on February 3, 2025, the board of directors of Piedmont declared a dividend for the first quarter of 2025 in the amount of $0.125 per share on its common stock to stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 21, 2025, payable on March 14, 2025.


Guidance for 2025:

The Company is introducing guidance for the year ending December 31, 2025 as follows:
(in millions, except per share data)LowHigh
Net loss$(49)$(46)
Add:
Depreciation165 168 
Amortization58 60 
NAREIT FFO applicable to common stock174 182 
Loss on early extinguishment of debt0.5 0.5 
Core FFO applicable to common stock$175 $183 
Core FFO applicable to common stock per diluted share$1.38$1.44


This guidance is based on information available to management as of the date of this release and reflects management's view of current market conditions, including the following specific assumptions and projections:

Property Operation Assumptions:

Executed leasing for the year of approximately 1.4-1.6 million square feet resulting in an increase in the anticipated year-end leased percentage for the Company's in-service portfolio to approximately 89-90%, exclusive of any speculative acquisition or disposition activity;

Same Store NOI of flat to 3% increase on both a cash and accrual basis for the year;





7



Financing Assumptions:

Interest expense (net of interest income) of approximately $127-129 million as compared to $119 million in 2024, reflecting a full year of higher interest rates as a result of refinancing activity completed by the Company during 2024 and early 2025;

Other Assumptions:

General and administrative expense of approximately $30-32 million;

Weighted average shares outstanding of 126-127 million.


No speculative acquisitions, dispositions, or refinancing are included in the above guidance. The Company will adjust guidance if such transactions occur.


Below is a roll forward of 2024 Actual Core FFO per diluted share to the Company's 2025 Guidance Range, given the assumptions listed above:

2025 Annual Core FFO Guidance Range$1.38 $1.44

Note that actual results could differ materially from these estimates and individual quarters may fluctuate on both a cash basis and an accrual basis due to the timing of any future dispositions, significant lease commencements and expirations, abatement periods, repairs and maintenance expenses, capital expenditures, capital markets activities, seasonal general and administrative expenses, accrued potential performance-based compensation expense, one-time revenue or expense events, and other factors discussed under "Risks, Uncertainties & Limitations" below.

(2)The Company has historically recognized approximately $2 to $3 million of termination income on an annual basis. Given the size of its asset base and the number of tenants with which it conducts business, Piedmont considers termination income of that magnitude to be a normal part of its operations and a recurring part of its revenue stream; however, the recognition of termination income is typically variable between quarters and throughout any given year and is dependent upon when during the year the Company receives termination notices from tenants. During the three months ended December 31, 2024, Piedmont recognized de minimis termination income, as compared with $2.7 million during the same period in 2023.

(1)The all-in stated interest rates for the SOFR selections are comprised of the relevant adjusted SOFR (calculated as the base SOFR plus a fixed adjustment of 0.10%) and is subject to an additional spread over the selected rate based on Piedmont's current credit rating. During any period that the Company has received credit ratings from two different credit rating agencies that are not equivalent, the credit rating shall be determined as the higher of the two credit ratings.
(2)The effective rates reflect the consideration of settled or in-place interest rate swap agreements and issuance discounts.
(3)The $250 million unsecured term loan has a stated variable interest rate; however, Piedmont entered into multiple interest rate swap agreements which effectively fixes the interest rate on the entire facility through the loan's maturity date and can only change with a credit rating change for the Company (based on the highest rating of the two credit rating agencies). Subsequent to December 31, 2024, the $250 million term loan was paid off in full, using proceeds from a $125 million increase on the existing $200 million term loan (which also closed subsequent to year end), cash on hand, and the available line of credit.
(4)The $200 million unsecured term loan has a stated variable interest rate; however, Piedmont entered into multiple interest rate swap agreements which effectively fixes the entire facility through February 1, 2026 and can only change with a credit rating change for the Company (based on the highest rating of the two credit rating agencies). Subsequent to December 31, 2024, the Company amended this facility to increase the principal amount by $125 million (to a total of $325 million) and to add two six month extension options for a final maturity date of January 29, 2028. The additional $125 million principal amount has a stated variable interest rate of SOFR + 1.30%.
(5)There was no balance outstanding under the unsecured line of credit as of December 31, 2024. This revolving credit facility has an initial maturity date of June 30, 2026; however, there are two, six-month extension options available under the facility providing for a total extension of up to one year to June 30, 2027. Piedmont may select from multiple interest rate options with each draw under the facility, including the prime rate and various SOFR selections. Subsequent to December 31, 2024, the Company recast this revolving facility to extend the initial maturity date to June 30, 2028, with two additional one year extension options, for a final maturity date of June 30, 2030.
(6)The original $400 million unsecured senior notes were offered for sale at 99.000% of the principal amount; the resulting effective cost of the original $400 million financing is approximately 9.50% before the consideration of transaction costs. Piedmont offered an additional $200 million in unsecured senior notes for sale at 101.828% of the principal amount; the resulting effective cost of the $200 million additional financing is approximately 8.75%.
(7)The $400 million unsecured senior notes were offered for sale at 98.993% of the principal amount; the resulting effective cost of the financing is approximately 7.114% before the consideration of transaction costs.
(8)The $300 million unsecured senior notes were offered for sale at 99.236% of the principal amount; the resulting effective cost of the financing is approximately 3.24% before the consideration of transaction costs and the impact of interest rate hedges. After incorporating the results of the related interest rate hedging activity, the effective cost of the financing is approximately 3.90%.
(9)
The $300 million unsecured senior notes were offered for sale at 99.510% of the principal amount; the resulting effective cost of the financing is approximately 2.80% before the consideration of transaction costs and the impact of interest rate hedges. After incorporating the results of the related interest rate hedging activity, the effective cost of the financing is approximately 2.78%.

(1)Credit rating may reflect the credit rating of the parent or a guarantor. The absence of a credit rating for a tenant is not an indication of the creditworthiness of the tenant; in most cases, the lack of a credit rating reflects that the tenant has not sought such a rating.
(2)Reflects the weighted average lease terms remaining in years weighted by Annualized Lease Revenue.

(1)Credit rating may reflect the credit rating of the parent or a guarantor. Where differences exist between the Standard & Poor's credit rating and the Moody's credit rating for a tenant, the higher credit rating is selected for this analysis.
(2)The classification of a tenant as "not rated" is not an indication of the creditworthiness of the tenant; in most cases, the lack of a credit rating reflects that the tenant has not sought such a rating. Included in this category are such tenants as Piper Sandler, Ernst & Young, KPMG, BDO, and RaceTrac Petroleum.

(1)Calculation compares the last twelve months of cash paying rents of the previous lease to the first twelve months of cash paying rents of the new lease.
(2)Calculation compares the accrual basis rents of the previous lease to the accrual basis rents of the new leases. For newly signed leases which have variations in accrual basis rents, whether because of known future expansions, contractions, lease expense recovery structure changes, or other similar reasons, the weighted average of such varying accrual basis rents is used for the calculation.
(3)Leases are excluded from the above analyses if: (1) the space has been vacant for more than one year, (2) the lease term is less than one year, (3) the lease is associated with storage space, retail space, a management office, or a percentage rent agreement, or (4) the lease is associated with a recently acquired asset for which there is less than one year of operating history.

(1)Excludes leasing transactions associated with storage and license spaces.
(2)Tenant improvement and leasing commission amounts presented for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024 include a 101,500 square foot 11-year lease executed in the first quarter of 2024 with no capital outlay requirements.
(3)Tenant improvement amounts presented for the year ended December 31, 2023 were adjusted to reflect the overall concession package for the 447,000 square foot 10-year renewal with US Bancorp, executed in the fourth quarter of 2023. The renewal terms provided for zero months of rent abatement, offset by an above-market tenant improvement allowance. The amounts are presented as if the renewal had included the standard twelve months gross rent abatement in line with market conditions and, therefore, a normalized tenant improvement allowance. This adjustment effectively lowered the total capital per square foot per year of lease term for the year ended December 31, 2023 by $0.97.
(4)The Company reports total tenant improvement amounts based on the maximum amount of committed leasing capital in the period in which the lease is executed. However, tenants do not always use the full allowance provided for in the lease, or a portion of the allowance could expire at a set date. To provide additional clarity on actual costs for completed leasing transactions, tenant improvement allowances that have expired or are no longer available to the tenant are disclosed in this section and are deducted from the capital commitments per square foot of leased space in the periods in which they expired.

Supplemental Definitions
Included below are definitions of various terms used throughout this supplemental report, including definitions of certain non-GAAP financial measures and the reasons why the Company’s management believes these measures provide useful information to investors about the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Reconciliations of any non-GAAP financial measures defined below are included beginning on page 35.
Adjusted Funds From Operations ("AFFO"): The Company calculates AFFO by starting with Core FFO and adjusting for non-incremental capital expenditures and then adding back non-cash items including: non-real estate depreciation, straight-lined rents and fair value lease adjustments, non-cash components of interest expense and compensation expense, and by making similar adjustments for joint ventures, if any. AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that AFFO is helpful to investors as a meaningful supplemental comparative performance measure of our ability to make incremental capital investments. Other REITs may not define AFFO in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of AFFO may not be comparable to that of other REITs.
Annualized Lease Revenue ("ALR"): ALR is calculated by multiplying (i) current rental payments (defined as base rent plus operating expense reimbursements, if payable by the tenant on a monthly basis under the terms of a lease that has been executed, but excluding a) rental abatements and b) rental payments related to executed but not commenced leases for space that was covered by an existing lease), by (ii) 12. In instances in which contractual rents or operating expense reimbursements are collected on an annual, semi-annual, or quarterly basis, such amounts are multiplied by a factor of 1, 2, or 4, respectively, to calculate the annualized figure. For leases that have been executed but not commenced relating to unleased space, ALR is calculated by multiplying (i) the monthly base rental payment (excluding abatements) plus any operating expense reimbursements for the initial month of the lease term, by (ii) 12. Unless stated otherwise, this measure excludes revenues associated with development properties and properties taken out of service for redevelopment, if any.
Core EBITDA: The Company calculates Core EBITDA as net income/(loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and removing any impairment charges, gains or losses from sales of property and other significant infrequent items that create volatility within our earnings and make it difficult to determine the earnings generated by our core ongoing business. Core EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Core EBITDA is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it provides a metric for understanding the performance of the Company’s results from ongoing operations without taking into account the effects of non-cash expenses (such as depreciation and amortization), as well as items that are not part of normal day-to-day operations of the Company’s business. Other REITs may not define Core EBITDA in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Core EBITDA may not be comparable to that of other REITs.
Core Funds From Operations ("Core FFO"): The Company calculates Core FFO by starting with FFO, as defined by NAREIT, and adjusting for gains or losses on the extinguishment of swaps and/or debt and any significant non-recurring items. Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Core FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of certain infrequent or non-recurring items which can create significant earnings volatility, but which do not directly relate to the Company’s core business operations. As a result, the Company believes that Core FFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and provides a more meaningful predictor of future earnings potential. Other REITs may not define Core FFO in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Core FFO may not be comparable to that of other REITs.
EBITDA: EBITDA is defined as net income/(loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization.
EBITDAre: The Company calculates EBITDAre in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition. NAREIT currently defines EBITDAre as net income/(loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) adjusted for gains or losses from sales of property, impairment charges, depreciation on real estate assets, amortization on real estate assets, interest expense and taxes, along with the same adjustments for joint ventures. Some of the adjustments mentioned can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. EBITDAre is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that EBITDAre is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it provides a metric for understanding the Company’s results from ongoing operations without taking into account the effects of non-cash expenses (such as depreciation and amortization) and capitalization and capital structure expenses (such as interest expense and taxes). The Company also believes that EBITDAre can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. However, other REITs may not define EBITDAre in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of EBITDAre may not be comparable to that of such other REITs.
Funds From Operations ("FFO"): The Company calculates FFO in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) definition. NAREIT currently defines FFO as net income/(loss) (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding depreciation and amortization related to real estate, gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, gains and losses from change in control, and impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets, goodwill, and investment in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity, along with appropriate adjustments to those reconciling items for joint ventures, if any. These adjustments can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of depreciation, amortization and gains or losses from sales of real estate, all of which are based on historical costs, which implicitly assumes that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time. The Company also believes that FFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. However, other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of FFO may not be comparable to that of such other REITs.
Incremental Capital Expenditures: Incremental Capital Expenditures are defined as capital expenditures of a non-recurring nature that incrementally enhance the underlying assets' income generating capacity. Tenant improvements, leasing commissions, building capital and deferred lease incentives ("Leasing Costs") incurred to lease space that was vacant at acquisition, Leasing Costs for spaces vacant for greater than one year, Leasing Costs for spaces at newly acquired properties for which in-place leases expire shortly after acquisition, improvements associated with the expansion of a building, renovations that change the underlying classification of a building, and deferred building maintenance capital identified at and completed shortly after acquisition are included in this measure.
Non-Incremental Capital Expenditures: Non-Incremental Capital Expenditures are defined as capital expenditures of a recurring nature related to tenant improvements and leasing commissions that do not incrementally enhance the underlying assets' income generating capacity. We exclude first generation tenant improvements and leasing commissions from this measure, in addition to other capital expenditures that qualify as Incremental Capital Expenditures, as defined above.
Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI"): The Company calculates Property NOI by starting with Core EBITDA and adjusting for general and administrative expense, income associated with property management performed by Piedmont for other organizations and other income or expense items for the Company, such as interest income from loan investments or costs from the pursuit of non-consummated transactions. The Company may present this measure on an accrual basis or a cash basis. When presented on a cash basis, the effects of non-cash general reserve for uncollectible accounts, straight lined rents and fair value lease revenue are also eliminated. Property NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Property NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental comparative performance measure of income generated by its properties alone without the administrative overhead of the Company. Other REITs may not define Property NOI in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Property NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs.
Same Store Net Operating Income ("Same Store NOI"): The Company calculates Same Store NOI as Property NOI attributable to the properties for which the following criteria were met during the entire span of the current and prior year reporting periods: (i) they were owned, (ii) they were not under development / redevelopment, and (iii) none of the operating expenses for which were capitalized. Same Store NOI also excludes amounts attributable to land assets. The Company may present this measure on an accrual basis or a cash basis. Same Store NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that Same Store NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental comparative performance measure of the income generated from the same group of properties from one period to the next. Other REITs may not define Same Store NOI in the same manner as the Company; therefore, the Company’s computation of Same Store NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs.
Same Store Properties: Same Store Properties is defined as those properties for which the following criteria were met during the entire span of the current and prior year reporting periods: (i) they were owned, (ii) they were not under development / redevelopment, and (iii) none of the operating expenses for which were capitalized. Same Store Properties excludes land assets.
Total Gross Assets: Total Gross Assets is defined as total assets with the add-back of accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortization related to real estate assets and accumulated amortization related to deferred lease costs.
Total Gross Real Estate Assets: Total Gross Real Estate Assets is defined as total real estate assets with the add-back of accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortization related to real estate assets.

Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc.
Supplemental Operating & Financial Data
Risks, Uncertainties and Limitations
Certain statements contained in this supplemental package constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. In addition, Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. ("Piedmont," "we," "our," or "us"), or our executive officers on our behalf, may from time to time make forward-looking statements in reports and other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission or in connection with other written or oral statements made to the press, potential investors, or others. Statements regarding future events and developments and our future performance, as well as management’s expectations, beliefs, plans, estimates, or projections relating to the future, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements preceded by, followed by, or that include the words “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue” or other similar words. Examples of such statements in this report include the Company's estimated range of Net Income/(Loss), Depreciation, Amortization, Core FFO and Core FFO per diluted share; descriptions of our real estate, financing, and operating objectives; the potential impact of economic conditions on our real estate and lease portfolio; discussions regarding future dividends; discussions regarding potential acquisition and disposition activity; and estimated increase in Same Store NOI for the year ending December 31, 2024, among others. These statements are based on beliefs and assumptions of our management, which in turn are based on information available at the time the statements are made.

Important assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements include, among others, assumptions regarding the demand for office space in the markets in which we operate, competitive conditions, and general economic conditions. These assumptions could prove inaccurate. The forward-looking statements also involve certain known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Such factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

Economic, regulatory, socio-economic (including work from home and "hybrid" work policies), technological (e.g. artificial intelligence and machine learning, virtual meeting platforms, etc.), and other changes that impact the real estate market generally, the office sector or the patterns of use of commercial office space in general, or the markets where we primarily operate or have high concentrations of revenue;
The impact of competition on our efforts to renew existing leases or re-let space on terms similar to existing leases;
Lease terminations, lease defaults, lease contractions, or changes in the financial condition of our tenants, particularly by one of our large tenants;
Impairment charges on our long-lived assets or goodwill resulting therefrom;
The success of our real estate strategies and investment objectives, including our ability to implement successful redevelopment and development strategies or identify and consummate suitable acquisitions and divestitures;
The illiquidity of real estate investments, including economic changes, such as rising interest rates, costs of construction and available financing, which could impact the number of buyers/sellers of our target properties, and regulatory restrictions to which real estate investment trusts ("REITs") are subject and the resulting impediment on our ability to quickly respond to adverse changes in the performance of our properties;
The risks and uncertainties associated with our acquisition and disposition of properties, many of which risks and uncertainties may not be known at the time of acquisition or disposition;
Development and construction delays, including the potential of supply chain disruptions, and resultant increased costs and risks;
Future acts of terrorism, civil unrest, or armed hostilities in any of the major metropolitan areas in which we own properties;
Risks related to the occurrence of cybersecurity incidents, including cybersecurity incidents against us or any of our properties, vendors, or tenants, or a deficiency in our identification, assessment or management of cybersecurity threats impacting our operations and the public's reaction to reported cybersecurity incidents, including the reputational impact on our business and value of our common stock;
Costs of complying with governmental laws and regulations, including environmental standards imposed on office building owners;
Uninsured losses or losses in excess of our insurance coverage, and our inability to obtain adequate insurance coverage at a reasonable cost;
Additional risks and costs associated with directly managing properties occupied by government tenants, such as potential changes in the political environment, a reduction in federal or state funding of our governmental tenants, or an increased risk of default by government tenants during periods in which state or federal governments are shut down or on furlough;
Significant price and volume fluctuations in the public markets, including on the exchange which we listed our common stock;
Risks associated with incurring mortgage and other indebtedness, including changing capital reserve requirements on our lenders and rising interest rates for new debt financings;
A downgrade in our credit ratings, the credit ratings of Piedmont Operating Partnership, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership") or the credit ratings of our or the Operating Partnership's unsecured debt securities, which could, among other effects, trigger an increase in the stated rate of one or more of our unsecured debt instruments;
The effect of future offerings of debt or equity securities on the value of our common stock;
Additional risks and costs associated with inflation and potential increases in the rate of inflation, including the impact of a possible recession, and any changes in governmental rules, regulations, and fiscal policies;
Uncertainties associated with environmental and regulatory matters;
Changes in the financial condition of our tenants directly or indirectly resulting from geopolitical developments that could negatively affect important supply chains and international trade, the termination or threatened termination of existing international trade agreements, or the implementation of tariffs or retaliatory tariffs on imported or exported goods;
The effect of any litigation to which we are, or may become, subject;
Additional risks and costs associated with owning properties occupied by tenants in particular industries, such as oil and gas, hospitality, travel, co-working, etc., including risks of default during start-up and during economic downturns;
Changes in tax laws impacting REITs and real estate in general, as well as our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or other tax law changes which may adversely affect our stockholders;
The future effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures;
Actual or threatened public health epidemics or outbreaks of highly infectious or contagious diseases, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as immediate and long-term governmental and private measures taken to combat such health crises; and
Other factors, including the risk factors discussed under Item 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Management believes these forward-looking statements are reasonable; however, undue reliance should not be placed on any forward-looking statements, which are based on current expectations. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and management undertakes no obligation to update publicly any of them in light of new information or future events.
