REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2018 RESULTS

-Company Reiterates 2018 Guidance-

Jersey City, New Jersey — May 2, 2018 - Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE: CLI) today reported its results for the first quarter 2018.

FIRST QUARTER 2018 HIGHLIGHTS

· Reported net income of $0.45 per diluted share for the quarter;

· Achieved Core Funds from Operations per diluted share of $0.50 for the quarter;

· Attained Adjusted Funds from Operations of $36.3 million for the quarter;

· Leased 265,885 square feet of office space; Core portfolio 85.2% leased at quarter end;

· Grew Core portfolio office rental rates by 5.1% on a cash basis and 10.7% on a GAAP basis;

· Multifamily stabilized portfolio was 97.3% leased at March 31, 2018, as compared to 96.6% for the fourth quarter; 2017 lease-up properties containing 1,162 units were 97.6% leased at March 31, 2018;

· Commenced multifamily leasing activities at three communities located in Worcester, Massachusetts, Morris Plains, New Jersey and the East Boston waterfront totaling 858 units;

· Completed property sales of $232 million in the first quarter. Additional dispositions of $170 million expected to be completed by year end; and

· Declared $0.20 per share quarterly common stock dividend.

Michael J. DeMarco, Chief Executive Officer, commented “We have made solid progress toward our disposition goals for the year, completing $232 million of non-core asset sales in the first quarter. We only have $170 million remaining for the rest of the year. As we have stated previously, our core focus in 2018 is on leasing, and while we cannot control the timing we remain aggressive in our efforts. To that point, interest from potential office users, and the waterfront in particular, has accelerated since year-end; however, the conversion cycle remains longer than preferred. Our residential deliveries and lease-ups continue to meet our expectations and we anticipate higher velocity as we approach the height of leasing season in the coming months. Overall, the team is singularly focused on improving the portfolio’s collective occupancy and operational cash flows for our shareholders.”

INFORMATION ABOUT FFO

Funds from operations (“FFO”) is defined as net income (loss) before noncontrolling interests of unitholders, computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), excluding gains or losses from depreciable rental property transactions, and impairments related to depreciable rental property, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization. The Company believes that FFO per share is helpful to investors as one of several measures of the performance of an equity REIT. The Company further believes that as FFO per share excludes the effect of depreciation, gains (or losses) from sales of properties and impairments related to depreciable rental property (all of which are based on historical costs which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance), FFO per share can facilitate comparison of operating performance between equity REITs.

FFO per share should not be considered as an alternative to net income available to common shareholders per share as an indication of the Company’s performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. FFO per share presented herein is not necessarily comparable to FFO per share presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definition. However, the Company’s FFO per share is comparable to the FFO per share of real estate companies that use the current definition of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). A reconciliation of net income per share to FFO per share is included in the financial tables accompanying this press release.

Core FFO is defined as FFO, as adjusted for certain items to facilitate comparative measurement of the Company’s performance over time. Core FFO is presented solely as supplemental disclosure that the Company’s management believes provides useful information to investors and analysts of its results, after adjusting for certain items to facilitate comparability of its performance from period to period. Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that is not intended to represent cash flow and is not indicative of cash flows provided by operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP. As there is not a generally accepted definition established for Core FFO, the Company’s measures of Core FFO may not be comparable to the Core FFO reported by other REITs. A reconciliation of net income per share to Core FFO in dollars and per share is included in the financial tables accompanying this press release.
