LOS ANGELES -- (Business Wire)

Thomas Properties Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: TPGI) reported today the results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2012.

The results of operations presented in this release include TPGI’s results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. The consolidated net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $(3.1) million or $(0.09) per share compared to consolidated net loss of $(3.3) million or $(0.09) per share for three months ended March 31, 2011.

After tax cash flow (“ATCF”) for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $1.7 million or $0.05 per share, which was consistent compared to ATCF of $1.8 million or $0.05 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The Company defines ATCF (a non-GAAP financial measure) as net income (loss) excluding the following items: noncontrolling interests, deferred income taxes, non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization and asset impairment, amortization of loan costs, non-cash compensation expense, straight-line rent adjustments, adjustments to reflect the fair market value of rent, and gain from extinguishment of debt. ATCF is further described in note (a) and reconciled to net income (loss) in the financial statements below.

"During the first quarter 2012, our operating portfolio remained stable, achieving rental rate increases as evidenced by our positive leasing spreads,” stated Jim Thomas, Chairman and CEO. “We continue to make progress on our strategy of selling non-strategic assets, with the closing of the sale of Brookhollow in Houston during the quarter. We are marketing additional properties and land in Austin, Philadelphia, Houston and El Segundo. Our balance sheet is healthy and we are pursuing acquisitions."

Forward Looking Statements

Statements made in this press release or during the quarterly earnings conference call that are not historical may contain forward-looking statements. Although TPGI believes the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, these statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from TPGI’s expectations include actual and perceived trends in various national and economic conditions that affect global and regional markets for commercial real estate services (including interest rates), the availability of credit and equity investors to finance commercial real estate transactions, our ability to enter into or renew leases at favorable rates, which can be impacted by the financial condition of our tenants, risks associated with the success of our development and property redevelopment projects, general volatility in the securities and credit markets, and the impact of tax laws affecting real estate. For a discussion of some of the factors that may cause our results to differ from management’s expectations, see the information under the captions “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 which is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. TPGI disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

a.			ATCF is a non-GAAP financial measure and may not be directly comparable to similarly-titled measures reported by other companies. We define ATCF as net income (loss) excluding the following items: i) deferred income tax expense (benefit); ii) noncontrolling interests; iii) non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization and asset impairment; iv) amortization of loan costs; v) non-cash compensation expense; vi) the adjustment to recognize rental revenues using the straight-line method; vii) the adjustment to rental revenue to reflect the fair market value of rents; and viii) gain on extinguishment of debt. Management utilizes ATCF data in assessing performance of our business operations in period-to-period comparisons and for financial planning purposes. ATCF should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of our performance. ATCF should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs. ATCF also should not be used as a supplement to or substitute for cash flow from operating activities (computed in accordance with GAAP).

b.			Based on an interest in our operating partnership of 74.72% and 74.76% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
