Terreno Realty Corporation has approximately $31.5 million of acquisitions under contract.

Dispositions

During the first quarter of 2016, Terreno Realty Corporation sold two industrial properties for an aggregate sale price of approximately $16.4 million. Capital from such sales is recycled into properties that Terreno Realty Corporation expects to provide better prospective returns or is returned to shareholders. The first quarter disposition activity was as follows:

• Fortune Qume. One flex/R&D industrial building in San Jose, California containing approximately 72,000 square feet sold for approximately $8.2 million. This property was acquired in March 2010 for approximately $5.6 million and the estimated unleveraged internal rate of return generated by the investment was approximately 11.3%; and
• Global Plaza. One industrial building in Sterling, Virginia containing approximately 69,000 square feet sold for approximately $8.2 million. This property was acquired in March 2012 for approximately $6.1 million and the estimated unleveraged internal rate of return generated by the investment was approximately 13.2%.

Operations

As of March 31, 2016, Terreno Realty Corporation owned 149 buildings aggregating approximately 11.1 million square feet and three improved land parcels consisting of 8.0 acres. Key operating measures for the portfolio were as follows:

• The total portfolio was 90.7% leased to 349 tenants as compared to 91.5% at December 31, 2015 and 92.0% at March 31, 2015;
• The same store portfolio of approximately 8.7 million square feet was 92.2% leased at March 31, 2016 as compared to 92.7% at December 31, 2015 and 92.4% at March 31, 2015;
• Cash rents on new and renewed leases totaling approximately 0.3 million square feet commencing during the three months ended March 31, 2016 increased approximately 5.9%; and
• Signed and commenced 190,000 square foot lease on April 5, 2016.

Occupancy decreased from December 31, 2015 primarily due to the expiration of a short-term lease at 180 Manor (85,000 square feet), which was a value-add acquisition acquired via sale-leaseback in the fourth quarter of 2015. In addition, fourth quarter 2015 value-add acquisitions of 2nd Avenue (51,000 square feet) and Kent 202 (158,000 square feet) have short-term leases that are expected to expire in the second quarter. Subsequent to March 31, 2016, Terreno Realty Corporation announced the execution of a three-year lease for 190,000 square feet at its Interstate property in South Brunswick, New Jersey which represents approximately 1.7% of the Company’s total square footage and 2.2% of the Company’s same store total square footage.
