QUARTERLY FINANCIAL RESULTS
Revenues
o Total Company: Revenues, including reimbursable costs, for the 2019 second
quarter totaled $305.2 million, up 51.8% from $201.1 million for the 2018
second quarter.
o Real Estate: Real Estate revenues, including reimbursable costs, for the
2019 second quarter were $291.5 million, up 67.6% from $173.9 million for
the 2018 second quarter, due primarily to additional lease revenues from
properties acquired in the Company's merger with CPA:17 on October 31,
2018 (the CPA:17 Merger) and net acquisitions.
Note: While it has no impact on net income or AFFO, in accordance with
Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which the Company
has adopted effective as of January 1, 2019, operating expenses reimbursed
by tenants are included within lease revenues on the consolidated
statements of income (for both current and prior year periods). Prior to
that date the Company presented revenues excluding reimbursable costs.
o Investment Management: Investment Management revenues, including
reimbursable costs, for the 2019 second quarter were $13.7 million, down
49.6% from $27.2 million for the 2018 second quarter, due primarily to the
cessation of asset management revenue previously earned from CPA:17.
Net Income Attributable to W. P. Carey
o Net income attributable to W. P. Carey for the 2019 second quarter was
$66.0 million, down 12.8% from $75.7 million for the 2018 second quarter.
Net income from Investment Management attributable to W. P. Carey
decreased, due primarily to the cessation of Investment Management
revenues and distributions previously earned from CPA:17. Net income from
Real Estate attributable to W. P. Carey increased, due primarily to
properties acquired in the CPA:17 Merger and net acquisitions. The
increase in revenues from properties acquired in the CPA:17 Merger and
acquisitions was partly offset by corresponding increases in depreciation
and amortization, interest expense and property expenses.
Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO)
o AFFO for the 2019 second quarter was $1.22 per diluted share, down 7.6%
from $1.32 per diluted share for the 2018 second quarter. AFFO from the
Company's Real Estate segment (Real Estate AFFO) increased, due primarily
to the accretive impact of properties acquired in the CPA:17 Merger and
net acquisitions. AFFO from the Company's Investment Management segment
declined, due primarily to the cessation of Investment Management revenues
and distributions previously earned from CPA:17.
Note: Further information concerning AFFO and Real Estate AFFO, which are
both non-GAAP supplemental performance metrics, is presented in the
accompanying tables and related notes.
Dividend
o As previously announced, on June 13, 2019 the Company's Board of Directors
declared a quarterly cash dividend of $1.034 per share, equivalent to an
annualized dividend rate of $4.136 per share. The dividend was paid on
July 15, 2019 to stockholders of record as of June 28, 2019.

and currently expects to report total AFFO of between $4.95 and $5.05 per
diluted share, including Real Estate AFFO of between $4.70 and $4.80 per
diluted share, based on the following key assumptions, which are
unchanged:
