1 | Annualized rent per occupied square foot represents gross monthly base rent under leases commenced as of the specified periods, multiplied by twelve. This amount reflects total cash rent before abatements. Where applicable, annualized rent has been grossed up by adding annualized expense reimbursements to base rent. Annualized rent for certain office properties includes rent attributable to retail. | |

We believe that FFO is a widely recognized and appropriate measure of
the performance of a REIT and that it is frequently used by securities
analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of
REITs, many of which present FFO when reporting their results. FFO
represents net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders,
computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
("GAAP"), which reflects the deduction of redeemable preferred stock
dividends accumulated, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of real
estate, impairment of real estate, and real estate depreciation and
amortization. We calculate FFO in accordance with the standards
established by the
Like any metric, FFO should not be used as the only measure of our performance because it excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of our real estate properties that result from use or market conditions nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our operating results. Other REITs may not calculate FFO in accordance with the standards established by the NAREIT; accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to the FFOs of other REITs. Therefore, FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income (loss) as a measure of our performance and should not be used as a supplement to or substitute measure for cash flows from operating activities computed in accordance with GAAP. FFO should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders to FFO attributable to common stockholders:

Reconciliation
of Net Operating Income
(Unaudited and in thousands)
We internally evaluate the operating performance and financial results of our real estate segments based on segment NOI, which is defined as rental and other property income and expense reimbursements less property related expenses and excludes non-property income and expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, corporate related general and administrative expenses, gain (loss) on sale of real estate, gain (loss) on early extinguishment of debt, impairment of real estate, transaction costs, and provision for income taxes. For our lending segment, we define segment NOI as interest income net of interest expense and general overhead expenses. We also evaluate the operating performance and financial results of our operating segments using cash basis NOI, or "cash NOI". We define cash NOI as segment NOI adjusted to exclude the effect of the straight lining of rents, acquired above/below market lease amortization and other adjustments required by GAAP.
Segment NOI and cash NOI are not measures of operating results or cash flows from operating activities as measured by GAAP and should not be considered alternatives to income from continuing operations, or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity, or as an indication of our performance or of our ability to pay dividends. Companies may not calculate segment NOI or cash NOI in the same manner. We consider segment NOI and cash NOI to be useful performance measures to investors and management because, when compared across periods, they reflect the revenues and expenses directly associated with owning and operating our properties and the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs, providing a perspective not immediately apparent from income from continuing operations. Additionally, we believe that cash NOI is helpful to investors because it eliminates straight line rent and other non-cash adjustments to revenue and expenses.
To facilitate a comparison of our segments and portfolio between
reporting periods, we calculate comparable amounts for a subset of our
segments and portfolio referred to as our “same-store properties.” Our
same-store properties are ones which we have owned and operated in a
consistent manner and reported in our consolidated results during the
entire span of the periods being reported. We excluded from our
same-store property set this quarter any properties (i) acquired on or
after
