Net income available to common stockholders was $5.1 million, a significant improvement from a net loss of $42.5 million in the prior year.

Total costs and expenses decreased significantly by 26.9% to $385.4 million, primarily due to the absence of substantial real estate impairment losses recorded in the prior year. AMB Property Corporation's balance sheet showed total assets of $7.12 billion and total liabilities of $3.42 billion, resulting in total equity of $3.70 billion. The company actively managed its debt, reducing total debt to $3.07 billion from $3.21 billion at the end of 2009. Cash flow from operations remained strong, providing $210.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010.
