The
costs related to rental revenue excluding depreciation and amortization
expense, profit from leasing activities before general and administrative
expenses and before depreciation and amortization expense, general and
administrative expenses excluding depreciation and amortization expense
and profit before depreciation and amortization expense are disclosures
not in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United State of America. They are presented because Griffin
believes they are useful financial indicators for measuring the results in
its real estate business segment. However, they should not be
considered as an alternative to operating profit as a measure of operating
results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. The aggregate of costs related to
rental revenue excluding depreciation and amortization expense, costs
related to property sales and depreciation and amortization expense
related to costs of rental revenue is the costs related to rental revenue
and property sales as reported on the consolidated statements of
operations.
