Recent Highlights
- For the full year of 2024 compared to the full year of 2023,
same store revenues increased 3.0%, same store expenses increased
2.9% and same store Net Operating Income (NOI) increased 3.1%.
- The Company has provided guidance for the full year of 2025
with same store revenue growth expected to be between 2.25% and
3.25%.
- During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company acquired three
properties, consisting of 795 apartment units, for an aggregate
acquisition price of approximately $274.3 million at a weighted
average Acquisition Cap Rate of 5.2%. These assets are located in
the Company’s Expansion Markets of Atlanta and Denver. Also during
the quarter, the company sold seven properties, consisting of 1,629
apartment units, for an aggregate sale price of approximately
$610.1 million at a weighted average Disposition Yield of
5.2%.
- The Company's Board of Trustees has voted to increase the
Company's 2025 annual common share dividend by 2.6% to $2.77 per
share reflecting confidence in the prospects of the business going
forward. All dividend payments remain subject to declaration by the
Board of Trustees in its sole discretion.
- The Company was recognized for its commitment to sustainability
with its inclusion in both the Dow Jones Sustainability World and
North American Indices. The Company is the first residential REIT
to receive this distinction. The Company was also recently honored
with Nareit’s Residential Sector Leader in the Light award, further
demonstrating its leadership in this area.
“Our 2024 operating results were solid and generally consistent
with our expectations. We expect a steady improvement in our same
store revenue results as we go through 2025 driven by higher lease
rate growth, continued elevated occupancy levels and significant
contributions from other income in 2025. Our view is underpinned by
an assumption that the economy remains steady and is supported by
continuing subdued levels of supply in our mostly coastal
footprint, an expectation of positive employment conditions for our
higher earning renter demographic and continued value creation by
our industry leading operations platform. With new apartment supply
in 2026 at decade lows in our coastal markets and declining
significantly in our Expansion Markets of Atlanta, Dallas and
Denver, the longer term set up for our business is outstanding,”
said Mark J. Parrell, Equity Residential’s President and CEO.
Full Year 2025 Guidance
The Company has provided guidance for its full year 2025 same
store operating performance, EPS, FFO per share, Normalized FFO per
share and transactions as listed below:
Same Store (includes Residential and
Non-Residential):
Physical Occupancy
96.2%
Revenue change
2.25% to 3.25%
Expense change
3.5% to 4.5%
NOI change
1.4% to 3.0%
EPS
$3.00 to $3.10
FFO per share
$3.87 to $3.97
Normalized FFO per share
$3.90 to $4.00
Transactions (1):
Consolidated rental acquisitions
$1.5B
Consolidated rental dispositions
$1.0B
Transaction Accretion (Dilution)
(25 basis points)
(1)
The Company expects to fund its
acquisition activity with a combination of proceeds from
dispositions and/or debt issuance.
The difference between the Company's full year 2024 actual EPS
of $2.72 and the full year 2025 EPS guidance midpoint of $3.05 is
due primarily to higher expected property sale gains, lower
expected other expenses, lower expected non-operating asset gains
and the items described below.
The difference between the Company's full year 2024 actual FFO
of $3.76 per share and the full year 2025 FFO guidance midpoint of
$3.92 per share is due primarily to lower expected other expenses,
lower expected non-operating asset gains and the items described
below.
The difference between the Company's full year 2024 actual
Normalized FFO of $3.89 per share and the full year 2025 Normalized
FFO guidance midpoint of $3.95 per share is due primarily to:

(1)
Lease-Up NOI reflects the contribution
from consolidated lease-up properties only. The Company does not
expect a contribution to growth in 2025 from recently completed
unconsolidated joint venture development projects given the current
lease-up velocity and cessation of capitalized interest on
construction loans. See the income (loss) from investments in
unconsolidated entities line item on page 28 for 2025 guidance on
this matter.
(2)
Transaction activity impact on NOI, net
represents acquisition NOI net of disposition NOI.
(3)
Interest expense, net is driven by higher
rates on refinancing and higher balances due to 2024 and 2025 net
investment activity.
(4)
Corporate overhead includes property
management and general and administrative expenses.
The Company has a glossary of defined terms and related
reconciliations of Non-GAAP financial measures on pages 29 through
34 of this release. Reconciliations and definitions of FFO and
Normalized FFO are provided on pages 7, 31 and 32 of this
release.
Results Per Share
The changes in EPS for the quarter and year ended December 31,
2024 compared to the same periods of 2023 are due primarily to
higher property sale gains, higher depreciation expense, the
various adjustment items listed on page 27 of this release and the
items described below.
The per share changes in FFO for the quarter and year ended

Investment Activity
During the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company acquired three
properties consisting of 795 apartment units, located in the
Company’s Expansion Markets of Atlanta and Denver, for an aggregate
acquisition price of approximately $274.3 million at a weighted
average Acquisition Cap Rate of 5.2%. The acquired properties are
one year old on average. During the fourth quarter of 2024, the
Company sold seven properties, located in the Washington, D.C.,
Seattle, San Francisco and San Diego markets, consisting of 1,629
apartment units, for an aggregate sale price of approximately
$610.1 million at a weighted average Disposition Yield of 5.2%. The
properties sold during the fourth quarter of 2024 have an average
age of 29 years.
During the full year of 2024, the Company acquired 18
properties, consisting of 5,373 apartment units, for an aggregate
purchase price of approximately $1.6 billion at a weighted average
Acquisition Cap Rate of 5.1%. The acquired properties are five
years old on average. Also during the full year of 2024, the

an aggregate sale price of approximately $975.6 million at a
weighted average Disposition Yield of 5.4%. The properties sold
during 2024 have an average age of 35 years.
During 2024, the Company completed four joint venture
development projects in its Expansion Markets of Dallas/Ft. Worth
and Denver, consisting of 1,262 apartment units, for a total cost
of approximately $338.0 million. See the income (loss) from
investments in unconsolidated entities line item on page 28 for the
Company's 2025 guidance assumption for these and other
unconsolidated assets. The Company also commenced construction in
2024 on three joint venture development projects in suburban Boston
(two projects) and Seattle, consisting of 1,079 apartment units,
for a total anticipated cost of approximately $539.4 million.
“We are particularly pleased with our progress in 2024 in adding
almost $2 billion of newer, high quality assets to our Atlanta,
Dallas and Denver Expansion Market portfolios, which we funded with
a combination of older asset sales and opportunistically sourced
long term debt. While operating conditions in these markets
continue to be challenging given historically high new supply
levels, we remain enthusiastic about the balance these markets will
create in our portfolio from the strong rental growth we expect to
see in future years once this supply is absorbed,” said Mr.
Parrell.

EPS
$0.63 to $0.67

$0.90 to $0.94
The difference between the fourth quarter of 2024 actual EPS of

The year-over-year changes were primarily
driven by the following factors:
Real estate taxes – Increase due to
escalation in rates and assessed values including an approximately
one percentage point contribution to growth from 421-a tax
abatement burnoffs in New York City. Once the burnoffs are
completed, previously rent-restricted apartment units will
transition to market.
On-site payroll – Modest increase
primarily driven by higher wages, partially offset by the impact of
various innovation initiatives.
Utilities – Increase primarily driven by
higher water, sewer and trash expense, partially offset by lower
commodity prices for gas and electric.
Repairs and maintenance – Increase
primarily driven by higher minimum wage on contracted services,
partially offset by lower resident Turnover compared to the same
period of 2023.
Insurance – Increase due to higher
premiums on property insurance renewal due to conditions in the
insurance market that while less difficult than recent years,
remain challenging.
Other on-site operating expenses –
Increase primarily driven by higher property-related legal
expenses.

Additional Reconciliations and
Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Terms
(Amounts in thousands except per
share and per apartment unit data)
(All per share data is
diluted)
This Earnings Release and Supplemental Financial Information
includes certain non-GAAP financial measures and other terms that
management believes are helpful in understanding our business. The
definitions and calculations of these non-GAAP financial measures
and other terms may differ from the definitions and methodologies
used by other real estate investment trusts (“REIT”) and,
accordingly, may not be comparable. These non-GAAP financial
measures should not be considered as an alternative to net earnings
or any other measurement of performance computed in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
(“GAAP”) or as an alternative to cash flows from specific
operating, investing or financing activities. Furthermore, these
non-GAAP financial measures are not intended to be a measure of
cash flow or liquidity.
Acquisition Capitalization Rate or Cap Rate – NOI that
the Company anticipates receiving in the next 12 months (or the
year two or three stabilized NOI for properties that are in
lease-up at acquisition) less an estimate of property management
costs/management fees allocated to the project (generally ranging
from 2.0% to 4.0% of revenues depending on the size and income
streams of the asset) and less an estimate for in-the-unit
replacement capital expenditures (generally ranging from $100-$450
per apartment unit depending on the age and condition of the asset)
divided by the gross purchase price of the asset. The weighted
average Acquisition Cap Rate for acquired properties is weighted
based on the projected NOI streams and the relative purchase price
for each respective property.
Average Rental Rate – Total Residential rental revenues
reflected on a straight-line basis in accordance with GAAP divided
by the weighted average occupied apartment units for the reporting
period presented.
Bad Debt, Net – Change in rental income due to bad debt
write-offs and reserves, net of amounts collected on previously
written-off or reserved accounts.
Blended Rate – The weighted average of New Lease Change
and Renewal Rate Achieved.
Capital Expenditures to Real
Estate:
Building Improvements – Includes roof
replacement, paving, building mechanical equipment systems,
exterior siding and painting, major landscaping, furniture,
fixtures and equipment for amenities and common areas, vehicles and
office and maintenance equipment.
NOI-Enhancing – Primarily includes
Renovation Expenditures as well as sustainability and
property-level technology expenditures that are intended to
increase revenues or decrease expenses.
Recurring – Capital expenditures
necessary to help preserve the value of and maintain the
functionality at our apartment properties.
Renovation Expenditures – Apartment
unit renovation costs (primarily kitchens and baths) designed to
reposition these units for higher rental levels in their respective
markets.
Replacements – Includes appliances,
mechanical equipment, fixtures and flooring (including hardwood and
carpeting).
Debt Balances:
Commercial Paper Program – The Company
may borrow up to a maximum of $1.5 billion under its Commercial
Paper Program subject to market conditions. The notes bear interest
at various floating rates.
Revolving Credit Facility – The
Company’s $2.5 billion unsecured revolving credit facility matures
October 26, 2027. The interest rate on advances under the facility
will generally be SOFR plus a spread (currently 0.725%), or based
on bids received from the lending group, and an annual facility fee
(currently 0.125%). Both the spread and the facility fee are
dependent on the Company’s senior unsecured credit rating and other
terms and conditions per the agreement. In addition, the Company
limits its utilization of the facility in order to maintain
liquidity to support its $1.5 billion Commercial Paper Program
along with certain other obligations. The following table presents
the availability on the Company’s unsecured revolving credit

Debt Covenant Compliance – Our unsecured debt includes
certain financial and operating covenants including, among other
things, maintenance of certain financial ratios. These provisions
are contained in the indentures applicable to each notes payable or
the credit agreement for our line of credit. The Debt Covenant
Compliance ratios that are provided show the Company's compliance
with certain covenants governing our public unsecured debt. These
covenants generally reflect our most restrictive financial
covenants. The Company was in compliance with its unsecured debt
covenants for all periods presented.
Development Yield – NOI that the Company anticipates
receiving in the next 12 months following stabilization less an
estimate of property management costs/management fees allocated to
the project (generally ranging from 2.0% to 4.0% of revenues
depending on the size and income streams of the asset) and less an
estimate for in-the-unit replacement capital expenditures
(generally ranging from $50-$150 per apartment unit depending on
the type of asset) divided by the Total Budgeted Capital Cost of
the asset. The weighted average Development Yield for development
properties is weighted based on the projected NOI streams and the
relative Total Budgeted Capital Cost for each respective
property.
Disposition Yield – NOI that the Company anticipates
giving up in the next 12 months less an estimate of property
management costs/management fees allocated to the project
(generally ranging from 2.0% to 4.0% of revenues depending on the
size and income streams of the asset) and less an estimate for
in-the-unit replacement capital expenditures (generally ranging
from $150-$450 per apartment unit depending on the age and
condition of the asset) divided by the gross sales price of the
asset. The weighted average Disposition Yield for sold properties
is weighted based on the projected NOI streams and the relative
sales price for each respective property.
Earnings Per Share ("EPS") – Net income per share
calculated in accordance with GAAP. Expected EPS is calculated on a
basis consistent with actual EPS. Due to the uncertain timing and
extent of property dispositions and the resulting gains/losses on
sales, actual EPS could differ materially from expected EPS.
EBITDA for Real Estate and Normalized
EBITDA for Real Estate:
Earnings Before Interest, Taxes,
Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate (“EBITDAre”) –
The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts
(“Nareit”) defines EBITDAre (September 2017 White Paper) as net
income (computed in accordance with GAAP) before interest expense,
income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, and further
adjusted for gains and losses from sales of depreciated operating
properties, impairment write-downs of depreciated operating
properties, impairment write-downs of investments in unconsolidated
entities caused by a decrease in value of depreciated operating
properties within the joint venture and adjustments to reflect the
Company’s share of EBITDAre of investments in unconsolidated
entities.
The Company believes that EBITDAre is useful
to investors, creditors and rating agencies as a supplemental
measure of the Company’s ability to incur and service debt because
it is a recognized measure of performance by the real estate
industry, and by excluding gains or losses related to sales or
impairment of depreciated operating properties, EBITDAre can help
compare the Company’s credit strength between periods or as
compared to different companies.
Normalized Earnings Before Interest,
Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization for Real Estate (“Normalized
EBITDAre”) – Represents net income (computed in accordance with
GAAP) before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and
amortization expense, and further adjusted for non-comparable
items. Normalized EBITDAre, total debt to Normalized EBITDAre and
net debt to Normalized EBITDAre are important metrics in evaluating
the credit strength of the Company and its ability to service its
debt obligations. The Company believes that Normalized EBITDAre,
total debt to Normalized EBITDAre, and net debt to Normalized
EBITDAre are useful to investors, creditors and rating agencies
because they allow investors to compare the Company’s credit
strength to prior reporting periods and to other companies without
the effect of items that by their nature are not comparable from
period to period and tend to obscure the Company’s actual credit
quality.
Economic Gain (Loss) – Economic Gain (Loss) is calculated
as the net gain (loss) on sales of real estate properties in
accordance with GAAP, excluding accumulated depreciation. The
Company generally considers Economic Gain (Loss) to be an
appropriate supplemental measure to net gain (loss) on sales of
real estate properties in accordance with GAAP because it is one
indication of the gross value created by the Company's acquisition,
development, renovation, management and ultimate sale of a property
and because it helps investors to understand the relationship
between the cash proceeds from a sale and the cash invested in the
sold property. The following table presents a reconciliation of net
gain (loss) on sales of real estate properties in accordance with
GAAP to Economic Gain (Loss):

Expansion Markets – Includes Denver, Atlanta, Dallas/Ft.
Worth and Austin.
FFO and Normalized FFO:
Funds From Operations (“FFO”) – Nareit
defines FFO (December 2018 White Paper) as net income (computed in
accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales and
impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate and land when
connected to the main business of a REIT, impairment write-downs of
investments in entities when the impairment is directly
attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate
held by the entity and depreciation and amortization related to
real estate. Adjustments for partially owned consolidated and
unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to
reflect FFO on the same basis. Expected FFO per share is calculated
on a basis consistent with actual FFO per share and is considered
an appropriate supplemental measure of expected operating
performance when compared to expected EPS.
The Company believes that FFO and FFO
available to Common Shares and Units are helpful to investors as
supplemental measures of the operating performance of a real estate
company, because they are recognized measures of performance by the
real estate industry and by excluding gains or losses from sales
and impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate and excluding
depreciation related to real estate (which can vary among owners of
identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost
accounting and useful life estimates), FFO and FFO available to
Common Shares and Units can help compare the operating performance
of a company’s real estate between periods or as compared to
different companies.
Normalized Funds From Operations
("Normalized FFO" or "NFFO") – Normalized FFO begins with FFO
and excludes:
- the impact of any expenses relating to non-operating real
estate asset impairment;
- pursuit cost write-offs;
- gains and losses from early debt extinguishment and preferred
share redemptions;
- gains and losses from non-operating assets; and
- other miscellaneous items.
Expected Normalized FFO per share is
calculated on a basis consistent with actual Normalized FFO per
share and is considered an appropriate supplemental measure of
expected operating performance when compared to expected EPS.
The Company believes that Normalized FFO and
Normalized FFO available to Common Shares and Units are helpful to
investors as supplemental measures of the operating performance of
a real estate company because they allow investors to compare the
Company's operating performance to its performance in prior
reporting periods and to the operating performance of other real
estate companies without the effect of items that by their nature
are not comparable from period to period and tend to obscure the
Company's actual operating results.
FFO, FFO available to Common Shares and
Units, Normalized FFO and Normalized FFO available to Common Shares
and Units do not represent net income, net income available to
Common Shares or net cash flows from operating activities in
accordance with GAAP. Therefore, FFO, FFO available to Common
Shares and Units, Normalized FFO and Normalized FFO available to
Common Shares and Units should not be exclusively considered as
alternatives to net income, net income available to Common Shares
or net cash flows from operating activities as determined by GAAP
or as a measure of liquidity. The Company's calculation of FFO, FFO
available to Common Shares and Units, Normalized FFO and Normalized
FFO available to Common Shares and Units may differ from other real
estate companies due to, among other items, variations in cost
capitalization policies for capital expenditures and, accordingly,
may not be comparable to such other real estate companies.
FFO available to Common Shares and Units and
Normalized FFO available to Common Shares and Units are calculated
on a basis consistent with net income available to Common Shares
and reflects adjustments to net income for preferred distributions
and premiums on redemption of preferred shares in accordance with
GAAP. The equity positions of various individuals and entities that
contributed their properties to the Operating Partnership in
exchange for OP Units are collectively referred to as the
"Noncontrolling Interests – Operating Partnership". Subject to
certain restrictions, the Noncontrolling Interests – Operating
Partnership may exchange their OP Units for Common Shares on a
one-for-one basis.

share and Normalized FFO per share for Consolidated Statements of
Funds From Operations and Normalized Funds From Operations.

Lease-Up NOI – Represents NOI for development properties:
(i) in various stages of lease-up; and (ii) where lease-up has been
completed but the properties were not stabilized (defined as having
achieved 90% Physical Occupancy for three consecutive months) for
all of the current and comparable periods presented.
Leasing Concessions – Reflects upfront discounts on both
new move-in and renewal leases on a straight-line basis.
Net Operating Income (“NOI”) – NOI is the Company’s
primary financial measure for evaluating each of its apartment
properties. NOI is defined as rental income less direct property
operating expenses (including real estate taxes and insurance). The
Company believes that NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental
measure of its operating performance because it is a direct measure
of the actual operating results of the Company's apartment
properties. NOI does not include an allocation of property
management expenses either in the current or comparable periods.
Rental income for all leases and operating expense for ground
leases (for both same store and non-same store properties) are
reflected on a straight-line basis in accordance with GAAP for the
current and comparable periods.
The following tables present reconciliations of net income per
the consolidated statements of operations to NOI, along with rental
income, operating expenses and NOI per the consolidated statements
of operations allocated between same store and non-same store/other
results and further allocated between Residential same store and
Non-Residential same store results (see Same Store Results):

Residential Same Store Properties only presented on a GAAP basis
which reflects the impact of Leasing Concessions on a straight-line
basis.

cash basis is presented in Same Store Results and is considered by
the Company to be a supplemental measure to Same Store Residential
Revenues in conformity with GAAP to help investors evaluate the
impact of both current and historical Leasing Concessions on
GAAP-based Same Store Residential Revenues and to more readily

partnership units outstanding, including restricted units (based on
the market value of the Company’s common shares) and the
outstanding principal balance of debt. The Company believes this is
a useful measure of a real estate operating company’s long-term
liquidity and balance sheet strength, because it shows an
approximate relationship between a company’s total debt and the
current total market value of its assets based on the current price
at which the Company’s common shares trade. However, because this
measure of leverage changes with fluctuations in the Company’s
share price, which occur regularly, this measure may change even
when the Company’s earnings, interest and debt levels remain
stable.

31, 2024. In case of debt for which fair value hedges are in place,
the rate payable under the corresponding derivatives is used in
lieu of the contractual interest rate.
Weighted Average Rates – Interest expense for each debt
instrument for the year ended December 31, 2024 weighted by its
average principal balance for the same period. Interest expense
includes amortization of premiums, discounts and other
comprehensive income on debt and related derivative instruments. In
