Burnham Pacific Announces Second Quarter 2000 Results

    SAN DIEGO, Aug. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Burnham Pacific Properties, Inc.
(NYSE: BPP) announced today operating results for the second quarter ended
June 30, 2000.
    Funds From Operations ("FFO") for the second quarter of 2000 on a
fully-diluted basis was $2.7 million or $0.08 per share (based on
32,319,000 shares), as compared to $13.2 million or $0.32 per share (based on
41,710,000 shares) for the quarter ended June 30, 1999.  Fully-diluted FFO for
the second quarter of 2000 does not assume the conversion of the Company's
convertible preferred stock and other common stock equivalents because such
conversion would be accretive to the Company.  For the six months ended June
30, 2000, FFO on a fully-diluted basis was $9.1 million or $0.28 per share
(based on 32,301,000 shares), as compared to $21.9 million or $0.59 per share
(based on 37,154,000 shares) for the first six months of 1999.  Fully-diluted
FFO for the first six months of 2000 does not assume the conversion of the
Company's convertible preferred stock and other common stock equivalents
because such conversion would be accretive to the Company.  Fully-diluted FFO
for the first six months of 1999 does not assume the conversion of the
Company's convertible preferred stock but does assume conversion of other
common stock equivalents.  FFO for both the 1999 and 2000 periods is
calculated in accordance with the revised definition adopted by the Board of
Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts
(NAREIT) effective January 1, 2000.  FFO is considered the primary earnings
measure for equity REITs.
    The year-over-year decline in FFO for the six months was primarily
attributable to lower revenues resulting from asset sales occurring subsequent
to March 31, 1999, a decrease in lease termination fees, an increase in
borrowing costs which is partially due to the refinancing of the Company's
line of credit during the fourth quarter of 1999, and costs associated with
the Company's pursuit of its strategic alternatives.  We anticipate that the
foregoing dilutive effects will continue to impact the Company's operating
results.
    Results for the first six months of 2000 were also negatively impacted by
legal fees and a litigation reserve related to a recent verdict against the
Company in favor of a tenant.  If one-time revenue and expense items were
excluded, fully-diluted FFO for the quarter-ended June 30, 2000, would have
been $6.3 million or $0.20 per share, as compared to $13.3 million or $0.32
per share for the prior year period; and fully-diluted FFO for the six-months
ended June 30, 2000, would have been $13.2 million or $0.41 per share, as
compared to $23.5 million or $0.63 per share for the prior year period.

    Review of Results
    For the second quarter ended June 30, 2000, revenues decreased
$3.3 million to $31.1 million from $34.4 million in the second quarter of
1999.  Including the one-time revenue and expense items referenced below, net
income (loss) available to common shareholders was a net loss of $3.8 million
or a loss of $0.12 per share as compared to net income of $2.4 million or
$0.08 per share for the prior year period.
    Revenues in the 2000 and 1999 three-month periods included one-time lease
termination fees of $41,000 and $800,000, respectively.  The 2000 and 1999
three-month periods were unfavorably impacted by costs of $983,000 and
$875,000, respectively, associated with the Company's pursuit of its strategic
alternatives.  The 2000 three-month period was also unfavorably impacted by
legal fees and a litigation reserve totaling $2.4 million associated with a
verdict against the Company, and severance expense of $250,000 relating to the
resignation of the Company's former Chief Operating Officer.  The 1999
three-month period was also unfavorably impacted by an impairment write-off in
the amount of $1.2 million related to the prospective sale of an office
building.
    For the six months ended June 30, 2000, revenues decreased $7.3 million to
$62.2 million from $69.5 million in the first half of 1999.  Including the
one-time revenue and expense items referenced below, net income (loss)
available to common stockholders was a net loss of $3.8 million or a loss of
$0.12 per share, as compared to net income of $2.7 million or $0.08 per share
for the prior six-month period.
    Revenues in the 2000 and 1999 six-month periods included one-time lease
termination fees of  $117,000 and $1.5 million, respectively.  The 2000
six-month period was impacted by costs of $1,322,000 associated with the
Company's pursuit of its strategic alternatives, the legal fees and litigation
reserve totaling $2.6 million, and the $250,000 severance expense.  The 1999
six-month period was also impacted by one-time charges taken in the first
quarter of 1999, in addition to the $1.2 million impairment charge and
$875,000 in costs related to the pursuit of strategic alternatives.  The first
quarter included charges of $1.5 million related to the Company's decision to
outsource its property management function to third-party providers,
$748,000 associated with the abandonment of prospective acquisition
transactions in process prior to the AMB portfolio acquisition, and
$1.9 million recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting
principle.

    Leasing Results
    The Company executed leases for approximately 333,197 square feet during
the second quarter at a weighted average rent of $15.49 per square foot per
year, with approximately 115,220 square feet representing space not previously
occupied, and approximately 116,704 square feet representing renewals of
existing tenants.  Of the total, approximately 128,666 square feet was leased
to anchor tenants (tenants greater than 14,000 square feet) at a weighted
average rent of $12.20 per square foot per year, as compared to a weighted
average rent for anchor tenants in the Company's overall portfolio of
$9.54 per square foot per year; and approximately 204,531 square feet was
leased to non-anchor tenants at a weighted average rent of $17.56 per square
foot per year, as compared to a weighted average rent for non-anchor tenants
in the Company's overall portfolio of $16.71 per square foot per year.
    Rental rates on renewals increased approximately 9.9% over the previous
rates.  Same-store net operating income increased approximately 1% in the
current quarter, as compared to the same quarter a year ago, and economic
occupancy at June 30, 2000 was 91.6%.

    Dispositions
    On April 28, 2000, the Company closed on the sale of the Chambers Creek
Shopping Center located in Tacoma, Washington, for a sales price of
approximately $3.25 million.  Net proceeds after repayment of a related
mortgage obligation of approximately $1.5 million were used for general
working capital purposes.

    Subsequent Events
    On July 31, 2000, the Company closed on the sale of the Scripps Ranch
office buildings located in San Diego, California, for a sales price of
approximately $5.55 million.  Net proceeds were used to reduce outstanding
indebtedness under the Company's line of credit.
