Earnings Guidance

Camden provided initial earnings guidance for 2010 based on its current and expected views of the apartment market and general economic conditions. Full-year 2010 FFO is expected to be $2.35 to $2.65 per diluted share, and full-year 2010 EPS is expected to be $(0.24) to $0.06 per diluted share. First quarter 2010 earnings guidance is $0.64 to $0.68 per diluted share for FFO and $(0.01) to $0.03 per diluted share for EPS. Guidance for EPS excludes potential future gains on the sale of properties. Camden intends to update its earnings guidance to the market on a quarterly basis.

The Company’s initial 2010 earnings guidance is based on projections of same-property revenue declines between 2.25% and 4.25%, expense growth between 2.0% and 3.5%, and NOI declines between 5.5% and 8.5%.

CAMDEN                  NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
                        DEFINITIONS & RECONCILIATIONS
                                                                                       (In thousands, except per share amounts)
(Unaudited)
This document contains certain non-GAAP financial measures
management believes are useful in evaluating an equity REIT’s
performance. Camden’s definitions and calculations of non-GAAP
financial measures may differ from those used by other REITs, and
thus may not be comparable. The non-GAAP financial measures should
not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indication
of our operating performance, or to net cash provided by operating
activities as a measure of our liquidity.
FFO
The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT")
currently defines FFO as net income attributable to common shares
computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
("GAAP"), excluding gains or losses from depreciable operating
property sales, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and
after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint
ventures. Camden’s definition of diluted FFO also assumes conversion
of all dilutive convertible securities, including minority
interests, which are convertible into common equity. The Company
considers FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of operating
performance because, by excluding gains or losses on dispositions of
operating properties and excluding depreciation, FFO can help one
compare the operating performance of a company’s real estate between
periods or as compared to different companies. A reconciliation of
net income attributable to common shareholders to FFO is provided
below:

Net Operating Income (NOI)
NOI is defined by the Company as total property income less property
operating and maintenance expenses less real estate taxes. The
Company considers NOI to be an appropriate supplemental measure of
operating performance to net income attributable to common
shareholders because it reflects the operating performance of our
communities without allocation of corporate level property
management overhead or general and administrative costs.

to net operating income is provided below:

EBITDA
EBITDA is defined by the Company as earnings before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization, including net operating income from
discontinued operations, excluding equity in (income) loss of joint
ventures, gain on sale of real estate assets, impairment associated
with land development activities, (gain) loss on early retirement of
debt, and income (loss) allocated to noncontrolling interests. The
Company considers EBITDA to be an appropriate supplemental measure
of operating performance to net income attributable to common
shareholders because it represents income before non-cash
depreciation and the cost of debt, and excludes gains or losses from
property dispositions. A reconciliation of net income attributable
to common shareholders to EBITDA is provided below:
