ITEM 7.01. REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE
On November 7, 2005, the Registrant issued a press release announcing its
results for the third quarter of 2005. The related press release is attached
hereto as Exhibit 99.1. The information in this Current Report is being
furnished pursuant to Item 7.01, Regulation FD Disclosure.
The attached press release includes a presentation of Home Properties'
Funds from Operations ("FFO") and Net Operating Income ("NOI"). FFO does and NOI
may fall within the definition of "non-GAAP financial measure" set forth in Item
10(e) of Regulation S-K and as a result Home Properties is or may be required to
include in this Current Report a statement disclosing the reasons why management
believes that presentation of these measures provides useful information to
investors. The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as a
supplemental measure of the operating performance of a real estate company
because, along with cash flows from operating activities, financing activities
and investing activities, it provides investors an understanding of the ability
of the Company to incur and service debt and to make capital expenditures. Home
Properties believes that NOI is helpful to investors as a supplemental measure
of the operating performance of a real estate company because it is a direct
measure of the actual operating results of the Company's apartment properties.
The Company also uses these two measures to compare its performance to that of
its peer group.
