HIGHLIGHTS

Stuart A. Tanz, President and Chief Executive Officer of Retail Opportunity Investments Corp. stated, "We are fully on track with achieving our targeted acquisition, management and leasing goals for the year. Thus far, we have acquired $122.8 million of grocery-anchored shopping centers year-to-date and our pipeline of acquisition opportunities continues to be active. In terms of property operations, we again posted strong results during the first quarter. We leased 171,200 square feet, increased occupancy by 110 basis points, from a year ago, to 93.4%, and achieved a 7.9% increase in same-center cash net operating income." Tanz stated further, "Looking ahead, with the $155.7 million of equity capital received through the warrants that have been exercised to date, our financial position continues to be strong. Accordingly, we are well-positioned to continue growing our portfolio and business."
FINANCIAL SUMMARY
For the three months ended March 31, 2013, net income attributable to common stockholders was $2.3 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, as compared to net income of $1.1 million, or $0.02 per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

ROIC computes FFO in accordance with the "White Paper" on FFO published by NAREIT, which defines FFO as net income attributable to common shareholders (determined in accordance with GAAP) excluding gains or losses from debt restructuring and sales of property and impairments, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for partnerships and unconsolidated joint ventures. FFO as defined by ROIC may not be comparable to similarly titled items reported by other real estate investment trusts due to possible differences in the application of the NAREIT definition used by such REITs.
