“In 2007 Sunstone consistently met or exceeded all key guidance metrics each quarter and delivered on all
of our promises,” Sunstone’s Chief Executive Officer, Steven R. Goldman, said. “We strengthened our
portfolio by selling non-core assets and completing focused renovations of our core holdings. We lowered
our capital costs and improved our credit ratios by taking advantage of lower-cost financing alternatives.
We redoubled our asset management efforts to drive additional streams of profitability and improve
forecasting accuracy. By remaining true to our basic strategy of disciplined capital allocation,
conservative financial management and proactive asset management, we believe we have positioned
Sunstone for continuing strong performance under a wide range of economic scenarios in 2008 and
beyond.”
Sunstone also announced that its board of directors has authorized the Company to repurchase up to $150
million of its common stock during 2008.
“Our Board took this action based upon its continued confidence in our Company's long-term growth
potential,” said Mr. Goldman.
