Included in the companys third quarter 2003 results were nonrecurring settlement charges totaling $7.3 million relating to the settlement of two lawsuits during the quarter. Excluding these charges, net income available to common shareholders totaled $14.0 million, or $0.30 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter totaled $45.8 million, as compared with $47.9 million in third quarter 2002. (A reconciliation of net income available to common shareholders to Adjusted EBITDA is provided at the end of this report.) For third quarter 2003, revenues totaled $69.8 million, as compared with $67.5 million a year ago, excluding revenues from discontinued operations of $0 and $4.0 million, respectively.

Excluding the nonrecurring settlement charges, net income available to common shareholders for the nine-month period totaled $66.0 million or $1.42 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA for the nine-month period totaled $137.4 million, as compared with $141.1 million for the same period 2002. For the nine months ended September 30, 2003, revenues totaled $205.0 million, as compared with revenues of $195.0 million for the same period 2002, excluding revenues from discontinued operations of $2.0 million and $11.8 million, respectively.

On a year-over-year basis, same-store operating results were affected by continued declines in market rents. Average market rents for the third quarter decreased 4% to $1,078 per unit, from $1,128 per unit in the third quarter 2002. Physical occupancy levels averaged 95% during third quarter 2003 and 2002. Annualized resident turnover averaged 69% during the nine months ended September 30, 2003, as compared with 66% in the same period last year.
On a sequential basis, same-store revenue increased 1%which combined with a 9% increase in real estate expensesgenerated a 2% decrease in NOI. During third quarter 2003, average market rents in the same-store portfolio increased 1% compared with the second quarter. Occupancy was maintained at 95%, a level consistent with second quarter results. Annualized turnover averaged 75% for third quarter 2003, up from 71% during second quarter 2003.
Year-to-date, same-store operating expenses increased 1% from the nine-month period in 2002. The overall level of expense and corresponding increase from 2002 is consistent with the companys expectations. The timing associated with turnover-related expenses affects the quarterly year-over-year comparison of real estate expenses. The higher turnover expensecombined with a seasonal increase in water utility expensesgenerated an aberrational increase in sequential operating expenses from second quarter 2003.

Acquisition and Development Activity
During third quarter 2003, BRE acquired one community for approximately $73 million: Corona Pointe Apartments, with 714 units, located in Riverside, California. The company also acquired a parcel of land for future development of 188 units located in Santa Clarita, California.
At September 30, 2003, the company had one community with 420 units in the lease-up phase: Pinnacle at Denver Tech Center, in Denver, Colorado. Occupancy for this lease-up community was 81% of total units at the end of third quarter 2003.
BRE currently has four communities with a total of 744 units in development, with a total estimated investment of $146.2 million and an estimated balance to complete totaling $66.5 million at close of 3Q 2003. Expected delivery dates for these units range from 1Q 2004 through 4Q 2005. All development communities are in Southern California. At September 30, 2003, BRE owned two parcels of land in Southern California, including the third quarter 2003 acquisition, representing 376 units of future development.
Legal Settlements
During third quarter 2003, BRE executed a settlement agreement in connection with litigation with an unrelated third party regarding the Pinnacle at MacArthur Place joint venture agreement. Under terms of the settlement agreement, BRE paid the third party $6,500,000 and retained full ownership of the asset. Pinnacle at MacArthur Place is a recently developed and stabilized, 253-unit community in Santa Ana, California. Also during third quarter 2003, BRE reached a settlement agreement regarding a class action lawsuit brought against the company with respect to application fees charged to residents from August 1998 to August 2003. Under terms of the settlement, BRE agreed to establish a $200,000 fund to reimburse prior applicants up to $5.00 per applicant, and to pay certain administration charges and legal expenses. These settlement amounts, legal fees and related expenses aggregate $7.3 million, and are reported as a nonrecurring item on the income statement.
Financial Information
At September 30, 2003, BREs combination of debt and equity resulted in a total market capitalization of approximately $2.9 billion, with a debt-to-total market capitalization ratio of 39%. BREs outstanding debt of $1.1 billion carried a weighted average interest rate of 5.75% for the nine months ended September 30, 2003. BREs coverage ratio of Adjusted EBITDA to interest expense was 3.1 times for the quarter and nine-month period. The weighted average maturity for BREs debt is six years. At September 30, 2003, outstanding borrowings under the companys unsecured and secured lines of credit totaled $243 million, with an average interest cost of 2.40%.
During third quarter 2003, the company sold 3,000,000 shares of its common stock. Net proceeds to the company totaled $32.651 per share, which represented a 3.4% discount from the New York Stock Exchange closing price of $33.80 per share on September 16, 2003. Wachovia Securities was the underwriter of the offering; the shares were re-offered to the public by the underwriter at a price of $33.10 per share. Subsequent to the end of the third quarter, the underwriter exercised an over-allotment option to purchase an additional 450,000 shares. Net proceeds from the offeringafter all discounts, commissions and anticipated issuance coststotaled approximately $112.3 million.
During third quarter 2001, BREs board of directors authorized the purchase of the companys common stock in an amount up to $60 million. The timing of repurchase activity is dependent on the market price of the companys shares, and other market conditions and factors. To date, the company has repurchased a total of $51.1 million of common stock, representing 1,785,600 total shares, at an average price of $28.64 per share. No shares were repurchased during third quarter 2003.
For third quarter 2003, cash dividend payments to common shareholders totaled $22.6 million, or $0.4875 per share. Cash dividend payments for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 reached $67.6 million, or $1.4625 per share.

Reconciliation and Definition of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This document includes certain non-GAAP financial measures that management believes are helpful in understanding our business, as further described below. BREs definition and calculation of non-GAAP financial measures may differ from those of other REITs, and, therefore, may not be comparable. The non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to net income or any other GAAP measurement of performance and should not be considered an alternative to cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as a measure of liquidity.
Funds from Operations (FFO)
FFO is based on NAREITs current definition and is calculated by BRE as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of investments, plus depreciation, and after adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures and minority interests convertible to common shares. We consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of the operating performance of an equity REIT because, by excluding gains or losses and depreciation, FFO can help one compare the operating performance of a companys real estate between periods or as compared to different companies. Below is a reconciliation of net income available to common shareholders to FFO:

Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO)
AFFO represents funds from operations less recurring value retention capital expenditures. We consider AFFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of the performance of an equity REIT because, like FFO, it captures real estate performance by excluding gains or losses on investments and depreciation. Unlike FFO, AFFO also reflects that capital expenditures are necessary to maintain the associated real estate assets. Below is a reconciliation of net income available to common shareholders to AFFO:

Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA, excluding minority interests, gains or losses from sales of investments, nonrecurring legal charges, and preferred stock dividends. We consider EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be appropriate supplemental measures of our performance because they eliminate depreciation, interest, and, with respect to Adjusted EBITDA, nonrecurring charges and gains (losses) from property dispositions, which permits investors to view income from operations unclouded by non-cash depreciation or the cost of debt. Below is a reconciliation of net income available to common shareholders to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA:

Net Operating Income (NOI)
NOI is defined as total revenues less real estate expenses (including such items as repairs and maintenance, payroll, utilities, property taxes and insurance, advertising and management fees.) We consider NOI to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our performance because it reflects the operating performance of our real estate portfolio at the property level and is used to make decisions about resource allocations and assessing regional property level performance.

Forward-Looking Statements
In addition to historical information, we have made forward-looking statements in this report on Form 8-K. These forward-looking statements pertain to, among other things, our capital resources, portfolio performance and results of operations. Forward-looking statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties. You should not rely on these statements as predictions of future events because there is no assurance that the events or circumstances reflected in the statements can be achieved or will occur. Forward-looking statements are identified by words such as believes, expects, may, will, should, seeks, approximately, intends, plans, pro forma, estimates, or anticipates or in their negative form or other variations, or by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions. Forward-looking statements are based on assumptions, data or methods that may be incorrect or imprecise or incapable of being realized. The following factors, as well as those factors set forth in the section entitled Risk Factors contained in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K, as amended, among others, could affect actual results and future events: defaults or non-renewal of leases, increased interest rates and operating costs, failure to obtain necessary outside financing, difficulties in identifying properties to acquire and in effecting acquisitions, failure to successfully integrate acquired properties and operations, risks and uncertainties affecting property development and construction (including construction delays, cost overruns, inability to obtain necessary permits and public opposition to such activities), failure to qualify as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, environmental uncertainties, risks related to natural disasters, financial market fluctuations, changes in real estate and zoning laws and increases in real property tax rates. Our success also depends upon economic trends, including interest rates, income tax laws, governmental regulation, legislation, population changes and other factors. Do not rely solely on forward-looking statements, which only reflect managements analysis. We assume no obligation to update forward-looking statements. For more details, please refer to our SEC filings, including our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q.
