Summary
AMB Property Corporation (AMB) reported its second quarter 2010 financial results, showing a solid increase in revenues and a shift from a net loss in the prior year's comparable period to net income. The company experienced a 7.8% increase in total revenues, driven primarily by growth in rental revenues from its development portfolio and other industrial properties. While same-store NOI saw a slight decline due to lower occupancy and increased free rent concessions, the overall portfolio performance is showing signs of stabilization. Management highlighted the company's proactive debt management, including significant debt repayments and extensions, and a strengthened liquidity position with substantial availability under its credit facilities. The company also completed a significant equity offering in April 2010, bolstering its financial flexibility for future investments and operations.
