Federal Realty Investment Trust
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2019
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1—
BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION
Federal Realty Investment Trust (the “Trust”) is an equity real estate investment trust (“REIT”) specializing in the ownership, management, and redevelopment of retail and mixed-use properties. Our properties are located primarily in densely populated and affluent communities in strategically selected metropolitan markets in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast regions of the United States, California, and South Florida. As of
June 30, 2019
, we owned or had a majority interest in community and neighborhood shopping centers and mixed-use properties which are operated as
104
predominantly retail real estate projects.
We operate in a manner intended to enable us to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. A REIT that distributes at least
90
%
of its taxable income to its shareholders each year and meets certain other conditions is not taxed on that portion of its taxable income which is distributed to its shareholders. Therefore, federal income taxes on our taxable income have been and are generally expected to be immaterial. We are obligated to pay state taxes, generally consisting of franchise or gross receipts taxes in certain states. Such state taxes also have not been material.
NOTE 2—
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation
The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of
December 31, 2018
, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) have been omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Trust’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation for the periods presented have been included. The results of operations for the
three
and
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. Certain
2018
amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation, which includes the presentation of rental income on our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
Principles of Consolidation
Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Trust, its corporate subsidiaries, and all entities in which the Trust has a controlling interest or has been determined to be the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). The equity interests of other investors are reflected as noncontrolling interests or redeemable noncontrolling interests. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation. We account for our interests in joint ventures, which we do not control, using the equity method of accounting.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, referred to as “GAAP,” requires management to make estimates and assumptions that in certain circumstances affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses. These estimates are prepared using management’s best judgment, after considering past, current and expected events and economic conditions. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

ASU 2019-01, March
2019, Leases (Topic
842), Codification
Improvements
ASC 842 significantly changes the accounting for leases by requiring lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for leases greater than 12 months on their balance sheet. The larger changes to the lessor model include: a change in the definition of initial direct costs of leases (resulting in the upfront expensing of more leasing related costs), the requirement to make an upfront and ongoing assessment of whether collection of substantially all of the lease payments required for the term of each lease is probable (if not probable, lease revenue is effectively recognized when cash is collected), certain presentation changes, and the elimination of real estate specific guidance.
ASU 2018-10 and ASU 2019-01 provide narrow amendments that clarify how to apply certain aspects of the guidance in ASU 2016-02. ASU 2018-11 provides the option of an additional transition method, by allowing entities to initially apply the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. It also provides lessors an option to not separate lease and non-lease components when certain criteria are met.
We have elected to apply the transition provisions of ASC Topic 842 at the beginning of the period of adoption (i.e., January 1, 2019), and therefore, did not retrospectively adjust prior periods presented. We have also elected to apply certain adoption related practical expedients for all leases that commenced prior to the effective date. These practical expedients include not reassessing whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases; not reassessing the lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and not reassessing initial direct costs for any existing leases. We have also elected the practical expedient allowing lessors to combine non-lease and lease components (primarily impacts common area maintenance recoveries).
From a lessee perspective, the primary impact of adoption on January 1, 2019 was to record a lease obligation liability and right of use asset for operating leases where we are the lessee. The most significant of these operating leases are ground leases at 14 properties. The operating lease right of use assets and related liabilities are shown separately on the face of our consolidated balance sheet. Additionally, amounts previously recorded as capital lease assets and included in real estate have been reclassified in the June 30, 2019 balance sheet as finance lease right of use assets and the related capital lease obligations have been reclassified in the June 30, 2019 balance sheet as finance lease liabilities. Income statement presentation is not impacted for our existing operating and finance leases.
From a lessor perspective, adoption of ASC 842 results in a charge to opening accumulated dividends in excess of net income of $7.1 million. This charge is attributable to the write off of certain direct leasing costs recorded as of December 31, 2018 under the previous lease accounting rules for leases which had not commenced and the write off of December 31, 2018 unreserved receivables (including straight-line receivables) for leases where we have determined that the collection of substantially all of the lease payments required for the term of the lease is not probable. Income statement presentation changes incorporated into our June 30, 2019 financial statements include: no longer recording a gross up of revenue and expense for costs (such as real estate taxes) paid directly by lessees on our behalf and recording collectability adjustments against revenue rather than as bad debt within rental expenses.
As a result of the change in the definition of initial direct costs of leases, capitalized leasing costs excluding external commissions decreased to $0.6 million and $1.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, from$2.0 million and $3.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.

REAL ESTATE
On
February 8, 2019
, we acquired the fee interest in Fairfax Junction, a
75,000
square foot shopping center in Fairfax, Virginia for
$
22.5
million
. Approximately
$
0.6
million
and
$
0.4
million
of net assets acquired were allocated to other assets for "above market leases," and other liabilities for "below market leases," respectively.
On
May 28, 2019
, we sold Free State Shopping Center in Bowie, Maryland for a sales price of
$
72.0
million
, and on
May 29, 2019
, we sold a land parcel at Northeast Shopping Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for
$
7.7
million
. These sales resulted in a gain of
$
15.2
million
.
During the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, we closed on the sale of
27
condominium units at our Assembly Row and Pike & Rose properties (combined), received proceeds net of closing costs of
$
13.1
million
, and recognized a gain of
$
0.7
million
, net of
$
0.2
million
of income taxes. The cost basis for the remaining condominium units as of
June 30, 2019
is
$
5.9
million
, and is included in "assets held for sale" on our consolidated balance sheets.
NOTE 4—
DEBT
On
January 31, 2019
, we repaid the
$
20.3
million
mortgage loan on Rollingwood Apartments, at par, prior to its original
maturity date.
On
June 7, 2019
, we issued
$
300.0
million
of fixed rate senior unsecured notes that mature on
June 15, 2029
and bear interest at
3.20
%
. The notes were offered at
99.838
%
of the principal amount with a yield to maturity of
3.219
%
. The net proceeds from this note offering after issuance discounts, underwriting fees, and other costs were
$
297.0
million
, which were primarily used to repay our
$
275.0
million
unsecured term loan, at par, on
June 7, 2019
.
During the three and
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, the maximum amount of borrowings outstanding under our
$
800.0
million
revolving credit facility was
$
81.0
million
and
$
116.5
million
, respectively, and the weighted average interest rate, before amortization of debt fees, was
3.2
%
for both periods. During the three and
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, the weighted average borrowings outstanding were
$
27.1
million
and
$
45.1
million
, respectively. At
June 30, 2019
, our revolving credit facility had
no
balance outstanding. Our revolving credit facility and certain notes require us to comply with various financial covenants, including the maintenance of minimum shareholders' equity and debt coverage ratios and a maximum ratio of debt to net worth. As of
June 30, 2019
, we were in compliance with all default related debt covenants.
NOTE 5—
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Except as disclosed below, the carrying amount of our financial instruments approximates their fair value. The fair value of our mortgages payable, notes payable and senior notes and debentures is sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates. Quoted market prices (Level 1) were used to estimate the fair value of our marketable senior notes and debentures and discounted cash flow analysis (Level 2) is generally used to estimate the fair value of our mortgages and notes payable. Considerable judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of financial instruments. The estimates of fair value presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized upon disposition of the financial instruments.
A summary of the carrying amount and fair value of our mortgages payable, notes payable and senior notes and debentures is as follows:

NOTE 6—
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
We are sometimes involved in lawsuits, warranty claims, and environmental matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Management makes assumptions and estimates concerning the likelihood and amount of any potential loss relating to these matters.
We are currently a party to various legal proceedings. We accrue a liability for litigation if an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. If an unfavorable outcome is probable and a reasonable estimate of the loss is a range, we accrue the best estimate within the range; however, if no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, the minimum within the range is accrued. Legal fees related to litigation are expensed as incurred. We do not believe that the ultimate outcome of these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, could have a material adverse effect on our financial position or overall trends in results of operations; however, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties. Also under our leases, tenants are typically obligated to indemnify us from and against all liabilities, costs and expenses imposed upon or asserted against us (1) as owner of the properties due to certain matters relating to the operation of the properties by the tenant, and (2) where appropriate, due to certain matters relating to the ownership of the properties prior to their acquisition by us.
Under the terms of certain partnership agreements, the partners have the right to exchange their operating partnership units for cash or common shares, at our option. A total of
627,171
downREIT operating partnership units are outstanding which have a total fair value of approximately
$
80.8
million
, which is calculated by multiplying the outstanding number of downREIT partnership units by our closing stock price on
June 30, 2019
.

EARNINGS PER SHARE
We have calculated earnings per share (“EPS”) under the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation methodology whereby EPS for each class of common stock and participating securities is calculated according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. For the
three
and
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, we had
0.2
million
weighted average unvested shares outstanding and for the
three
and
six
months ended June 30, 2018 we had
0.3
million
weighted average unvested shares outstanding, which are considered participating securities. Therefore, we have allocated our earnings for basic and diluted EPS between common shares and unvested shares; the portion of earnings allocated to the unvested shares is reflected as “earnings allocated to unvested shares” in the reconciliation below.
In the dilutive EPS calculation, dilutive stock options were calculated using the treasury stock method consistent with prior periods. There were
682
anti-dilutive stock options for the
three
and
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
. The conversions of downREIT operating partnership units and
5.417
%
Series 1 Cumulative Convertible Preferred Shares are anti-dilutive for all periods presented and accordingly, have been excluded from the weighted average common shares used to compute diluted EPS.

99.838%
of the principal amount with a yield to maturity of
3.219%
. The net proceeds from this note offering after issuance discounts, underwriting fees, and other costs were
$297.0 million
, which were primarily used to repay our
$275.0 million
unsecured term loan on
June 7, 2019
.
On
July 25, 2019
, we amended our revolving credit facility to increase our borrowing capacity to
$1.0 billion
and extend the maturity date to January 19, 2024, subject to two six-month extensions at our option. Under the amended facility, the spread over LIBOR is
77.5
basis points based on our current credit rating. In addition, we have an option (subject to bank approval) to increase the credit facility through an accordion feature to $1.5 billion.
We have an at-the-market (“ATM”) equity program in which we may from time to time offer and sell common shares having an aggregate offering price of up to
$400.0 million
. We intend to use the net proceeds to fund potential acquisition opportunities, fund our development and redevelopment pipeline, repay amounts outstanding under our revolving credit facility and/or for general corporate purposes. For the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, we sold
511,938
common shares at a weighted average price per share of
$134.96
for net cash proceeds of
$68.3 million
and paid
$0.7 million
in commissions and
$0.1 million
in additional offering expenses related to the sales of these common shares. As of
June 30, 2019
, we had the capacity to issue up to
$203.4 million
in common shares under our ATM equity program.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements.
Outlook
We seek growth in earnings, funds from operations, and cash flows primarily through a combination of the following:
•
growth in our comparable property portfolio,
•
growth in our portfolio from property development and redevelopments, and
•
expansion of our portfolio through property acquisitions.
Our comparable property growth is primarily driven by increases in rental rates on new leases and lease renewals, changes in portfolio occupancy, and the redevelopment of those assets. Over the long-term, the infill nature and strong demographics of our properties provide a strategic advantage allowing us to maintain relatively high occupancy and generally increase rental rates. We continue to see relatively strong levels of interest from prospective tenants for our retail spaces; however, the time it takes to complete new lease deals is longer, as tenants have become more selective and more deliberate in their decision-making process.
We have also experienced extended periods of time for some government agencies to process permits and inspections further delaying rent commencement on newly leased spaces. Additionally, we have seen an overall decrease in the number of tenants available to fill anchor spaces, and have seen an uptick in the number of retail tenants vacating prior to the end of their lease term and/or filing for bankruptcy. We believe the locations and nature of our centers and diverse tenant base partially mitigates any potential negative changes in the economic environment. However, any significant reduction in our tenants' abilities to pay base rent, percentage rent or other charges will adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. We seek to maintain a mix of strong national, regional, and local retailers. At
June 30, 2019
, no single tenant accounted for more than
2.6%
of annualized base rent.
Our properties are located primarily in densely populated and/or affluent areas with high barriers to entry which allow us to take advantage of redevelopment opportunities that enhance our operating performance through renovation, expansion, reconfiguration, and/or retenanting. We evaluate our properties on an ongoing basis to identify these types of opportunities. We currently have redevelopment projects underway with a projected total cost of approximately $325 million that we expect to stabilize in the next several years.
We continue our ongoing redevelopment efforts at Santana Row and are under construction on an eight story 301,000 square foot office building which will include an additional 18,000 square feet of retail space and 1,300 parking spaces. The project is expected to cost between $210 million and $220 million, to be delivered in 2020, and the office portion is 100% leased. After current phases, we have approximately 4 acres remaining for further redevelopment and entitlements in place for an additional 395 residential units and 321,000 square feet of commercial space.
Additionally, we control 12 acres of land across from Santana Row, which has approximately 1 million square feet of commercial space entitlements. We are proceeding with the first phase of construction on this land, which includes an eight story 360,000 square foot office building, with over 1,700 parking spaces. The building is expected to cost between $250 and $270 million, with deliveries beginning in 2021.
Phase II of Assembly Row includes approximately 161,000 square feet of retail space, 447 residential units, and a 158 room boutique hotel (owned and operated by a joint venture in which we are a partner). Total expected costs range from $290 million
15
Table of Contents
to $305 million and delivery is expected to continue through 2019. As of
June 30, 2019
, approximately 130,000 square feet of retail space and the 158 room hotel have opened, and all of the residential units have been completed. Phase II also includes 122 for-sale condominium units of which 115 units have closed as of
June 30, 2019
. The remaining 7 units are expected to close in 2019. The condominium units have an expected total cost of $81 million.
Additionally, we commenced construction on Phase III of Assembly Row, which will include 277,000 square feet of office space (of which, 150,000 square feet is pre-leased), 56,000 square feet of retail space, 500 residential units, and over 800 additional parking spaces. The expected costs for Phase III are between $465 million and $485 million and is projected to open beginning in 2022.
Phase II of Pike & Rose includes approximately 216,000 square feet of retail space, 272 residential units, and a 177 room boutique hotel (owned and operated by a joint venture in which we are a partner). As of
June 30, 2019
, approximately 196,000 square feet of retail space and the 177 room hotel have opened, and all of the residential units have been completed. Total expected costs range from $200 million to $207 million and remaining delivery is expected to continue through 2019. As of
June 30, 2019
, we closed on the sale of 88 of the 99 for-sale condominium units in Phase II. The condominium units have an expected total cost of $62 million.
Additionally, at Pike & Rose, we have commenced construction on a 212,000 square foot office building (which includes 4,000 square feet of ground floor retail space), and will include over 600 additional parking spaces. The building is expected to cost between $128 million and $135 million and is projected to open beginning in 2021.
Including costs incurred in the first
six
months of
2019
, we expect to invest between $175 million and $200 million at Assembly Row and Pike & Rose in
2019
.
The development of future phases of Assembly Row, Pike & Rose and Santana Row will be pursued opportunistically based on, among other things, market conditions, tenant demand, and our evaluation of whether those phases will generate an appropriate financial return.
We continue to review acquisition opportunities in our primary markets that complement our portfolio and provide long-term growth opportunities. Initially, some of our acquisitions do not contribute significantly to earnings growth; however, we believe they provide long-term re-leasing growth, redevelopment opportunities, and other strategic opportunities. Any growth from acquisitions is contingent on our ability to find properties that meet our qualitative standards at prices that meet our financial hurdles. Changes in interest rates may affect our success in achieving earnings growth through acquisitions by affecting both the price that must be paid to acquire a property, as well as our ability to economically finance the property acquisition. Generally, our acquisitions are initially financed by available cash and/or borrowings under our revolving credit facility which may be repaid later with funds raised through the issuance of new equity or new long-term debt. We may also finance our acquisitions through the issuance of common shares, preferred shares, or downREIT units as well as through new or assumed mortgages and property sales.
At
June 30, 2019
, the leasable square feet in our properties was
94.1%
leased and
93.3%
occupied. The leased rate is higher than the occupied rate due to leased spaces that are being redeveloped or improved or that are awaiting permits and, therefore, are not yet ready to be occupied. Our occupancy and leased rates are subject to variability over time due to factors including acquisitions, the timing of the start and stabilization of our redevelopment projects, lease expirations and tenant closings and bankruptcies.
Lease Rollovers
For the
second quarter of
2019
, we signed leases for a total of 383,000 square feet of retail space including 379,000 square feet of comparable space leases (leases for which there was a prior tenant) at an average rental increase of 7% on a cash basis. New leases for comparable spaces were signed for 136,000 square feet at an average rental increase of 17% on a cash basis. Renewals for comparable spaces were signed for 243,000 square feet at an average rental increase of 3% on a cash basis. Tenant improvements and incentives for comparable spaces were $33.12 per square foot, of which, $88.78 per square foot was for new leases and $2.00 per square foot was for renewals for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2019
.
For the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, we signed leases for a total of 688,000 square feet of retail space including 626,000 square feet of comparable space leases (leases for which there was a prior tenant) at an average rental increase of 8% on a cash basis. New leases for comparable spaces were signed for 264,000 square feet at an average rental increase of 17% on a cash basis. Renewals for comparable spaces were signed for 362,000 square feet at an average rental increase of 2% on a cash basis. Tenant improvements and incentives for comparable spaces were $41.75 per square foot, of which, $96.56 per square foot was for new leases and $1.77 per square foot was for renewals for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
.
16
Table of Contents
The rental increases associated with comparable spaces generally include all leases signed for retail space in arms-length transactions reflecting market leverage between landlords and tenants during the period. The comparison between average rent for expiring leases and new leases is determined by including minimum rent and percentage rent paid on the expiring lease and minimum rent and in some instances, projections of first lease year percentage rent, to be paid on the new lease. In atypical circumstances, management may exercise judgment as to how to most effectively reflect the comparability of spaces reported in this calculation. The change in rental income on comparable space leases is impacted by numerous factors including current market rates, location, individual tenant creditworthiness, use of space, market conditions when the expiring lease was signed, capital investment made in the space and the specific lease structure. Tenant improvements and incentives include the total dollars committed for the improvement (fit out) of a space as it relates to a specific lease and, except for redevelopments, may also include base building costs (i.e. expansion, escalators or new entrances) which are required to make the space leasable. Incentives include amounts paid to tenants as inducement to sign a lease that do not represent building improvements.
The leases signed in
2019
generally become effective over the following two years though some may not become effective until
2022
and beyond. Further, there is risk that some new tenants will not ultimately take possession of their space and that tenants for both new and renewal leases may not pay all of their contractual rent due to operating, financing or other matters. However, these increases do provide information about the tenant/landlord relationship and the potential increase we may achieve in rental income over time.
Historically, we have executed comparable space leases for 1.2 to 1.7 million square feet of retail space each year, and expect that volume for
2019
will be in line with our historical averages with overall positive increases in rental income. However, changes in rental income associated with individual signed leases on comparable spaces may be positive or negative, and we can provide no assurance that the rents on new leases will continue to increase at the above disclosed levels, if at all.
Comparable Properties
Throughout this section, we have provided certain information on a “comparable property” basis. Information provided on a comparable property basis includes the results of properties that we owned and operated for the entirety of both periods being compared except for properties that are currently under development or are being repositioned for significant redevelopment and investment. For the
three
and
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, all or a portion of 97 properties were considered comparable properties and eight properties were considered non-comparable properties. For the
three
and
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, eight properties were moved from acquisitions to comparable properties, one property was moved from acquisitions to non-comparable properties, one portion of a property was moved from non-comparable to comparable properties, and one property was removed from comparable properties, as it was sold, compared to the designations for the year ended
December 31, 2018
, which were 90 properties or portions of properties considered comparable and eight considered non-comparable.
While there is judgment surrounding changes in designations, we typically move non-comparable properties to comparable properties once they have stabilized, which is typically considered 90% physical occupancy or when the growth expected from the redevelopment has been included in the comparable periods. We typically remove properties from comparable properties when the repositioning of the asset has commenced and has or is expected to have a significant impact to property operating income within the calendar year. Acquisitions are moved to comparable properties once we have owned the property for the entirety of comparable periods and the property is not under development or being repositioned for significant redevelopment and investment.

Property operating income is a non-GAAP measure that consists of rental income and mortgage interest income, less rental expenses and real estate taxes. This measure is used internally to evaluate the performance of property operations and we consider it to be a significant measure. Property operating income should not be considered an alternative measure of operating results or cash flow from operations as determined in accordance with GAAP.
Property Revenues
Total property revenue
increased
$5.6 million
, or
2.5%
, to
$230.5 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to
$224.9 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2018
. The percentage occupied at our shopping centers was
93.3%
at
June 30, 2019
compared to 93.7% at
June 30, 2018
. Changes in the components of property revenue are discussed below.
Rental Income
Rental income consists primarily of minimum rent, cost reimbursements from tenants and percentage rent. Rental income
increased
$5.6 million
, or
2.5%
, to
$229.7 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to
$224.2 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2018
due primarily to the following:
•
an increase of $3.1 million from comparable properties due primarily to higher rental rates of approximately $3.4 million, higher legal and lease termination fees of $1.7 million, and higher average occupancy of approximately $0.8 million, partially offset by a $2.9 million decrease in real estate tax recoveries primarily due to lower multi-year tax reassessments for three of our properties and the requirements of the new lease accounting standard (see Note 2 for additional disclosure),
•
an increase of $2.8 million from non-comparable properties due primarily to the openings at Phase II at Assembly Row and Pike & Rose, partially offset by redevelopment related occupancy decreases at one of our Florida properties and one Virginia property, and
•
an increase of $0.5 million from the acquisition of Fairfax Junction in February 2019,
partially offset by,
•
a decrease of $1.4 million from our 2018 and 2019 property sales.
Property Expenses
Total property expenses
decreased
$1.6 million
, or
2.4%
, to
$66.6 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to
$68.2 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2018
. Changes in the components of property expenses are discussed below.

Table of Contents
Rental Expenses
Rental expenses
increased
$1.5 million
, or
3.8%
, to
$41.4 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to
$39.9 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2018
. This increase is due primarily to an increase of $1.4 million from comparable properties due primarily to higher repairs and maintenance costs partially offset by a $0.9 million decrease due to the new lease accounting standard requirement to record collectibility adjustments as a reduction to revenue rather than rental expense effective at adoption on January 1, 2019.
As a result of the changes in rental income and rental expenses as discussed above, rental expenses as a percentage of rental income increased to
18.0%
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2019
from
17.8%
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2018
.
Real Estate Taxes
Real estate tax expense
decreased
$3.1 million
, or
11.1%
, to
$25.2 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to
$28.3 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2018
. This decrease is primarily due to the following:
•
a decrease of $3.4 million from comparable properties due primarily to a tax refund from a multi-year appeal and reassessment of three of our properties and $1.3 million due to the new lease accounting standard requirement, which no longer permits the gross up of real estate tax revenue and expense for real estate taxes that our tenants pay directly to the taxing authority (see Note 2 for additional disclosure),
partially offset by
•
an increase of $0.3 million from non-comparable properties due primarily to increases in assessments as a result of our redevelopment activities.
Property Operating Income
Property operating income
increased
$7.2 million
, or
4.6%
, to
$163.9 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to
$156.7 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2018
. This increase is due primarily to growth in earnings at comparable properties and Assembly Row and Pike & Rose, partially offset by property sales.
Other Operating
General and Administrative
General and administrative expense increased
$3.0 million
, or
35.8%
, to
$11.4 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2019
from
$8.4 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2018
. This increase is due primarily to higher leasing related costs as certain costs can no longer be capitalized as a result of the new lease accounting standard (see Note 2 for additional disclosure) and higher personnel costs.
Gain on Sale of Real Estate, Net
The
$16.2 million
gain on sale of real estate, net for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2019
is due primarily to the sale of Free State Shopping Center and a land parcel at Northeast Shopping Center.
The
$4.0 million
net gain for the
three
months ended
June 30, 2018
is related to condominium unit sales that closed at our Assembly Row and Pike and Rose properties.
Operating Income
Operating income increased
$15.7 million
, or
16.7%
, to
$109.6 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to
$93.9 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2018
. This increase is due primarily to the net gains on the sales of Free State Shopping Center and a land parcel at Northeast Shopping Center, growth in earnings at our comparable properties, and the opening of Phase II of Assembly Row and Pike & Rose, partially offset by higher leasing and personnel related costs.
Other
Interest Expense
Interest expense
decreased
$0.3 million

in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to
$27.8 million
in the
three
months ended
June 30, 2018
. This decrease is due primarily to a decrease of $0.9 million due to lower weighted average borrowings, partially offset by an increase of $0.7 million due to a higher overall weighted average borrowing rate.

six
months ended
June 30, 2018
. The percentage occupied at our shopping centers was
93.3%
at
June 30, 2019
compared to 93.7% at
June 30, 2018
. Changes in the components of property revenue are discussed below.
Rental Income
Rental income consists primarily of minimum rent, cost reimbursements from tenants and percentage rent. Rental income increased
$12.4 million
, or
2.8%
, to
$461.2 million
in the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to
$448.8 million
in the
six
months ended
June 30, 2018
due primarily to the following:
•
an increase of $7.1 million from non-comparable properties due primarily to the opening of Phase II at Assembly Row and Pike & Rose and the lease-up of one of our other redevelopments, partially offset by redevelopment related occupancy decreases at two of our Florida properties and one Virginia property,
•
an increase of $6.0 million from comparable properties due primarily to higher rental rates of approximately $5.6 million, higher legal and lease termination fees of $5.1 million, and higher average occupancy of
20
Table of Contents
approximately $1.2 million, partially offset by a $4.1 million decrease in real estate tax recoveries primarily due to lower multi-year tax reassessments for three of our properties and the requirements of the new lease accounting standard (see Note 2 for additional disclosure), and
•
an increase of $0.8 million from the acquisition of Fairfax Junction in February 2019,
partially offset by
•
a decrease of $2.3 million from property sales.
Property Expenses
Total property expenses decreased
$2.9 million
, or
2.0%
, to
$138.6 million
in the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to
$141.4 million
in the
six
months ended
June 30, 2018
. Changes in the components of property expenses are discussed below.
Rental Expenses
Rental expenses increased
$1.0 million
, or
1.2%
, to
$85.7 million
in the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to
$84.7 million
in the
six
months ended
June 30, 2018
. This increase is due primarily to the following:
•
an increase of $0.6 million from non-comparable properties due primarily to the opening of Phase II at Assembly Row and Pike & Rose, partially offset by lower expenses at two of our Florida properties,
•
an increase of $0.5 million from comparable properties due primarily to higher repairs and maintenance costs partially offset by a $1.8 million decrease due to the new lease accounting standard requirement to record collectibility adjustments as a reduction to revenue rather than rental expense effective at adoption on January 1, 2019, and
•
an increase of $0.3 million from acquisitions,
partially offset by
•
a decrease of $0.6 million from property sales.
As a result of the changes in rental income and rental expenses as discussed above, rental expenses as a percentage of rental income decreased to
18.6%
in the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
from
18.9%
the
six
months ended
June 30, 2018
.
Real Estate Taxes
Real estate tax expense decreased
$3.9 million
, or
6.9%
, to
$52.9 million
in the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to
$56.8 million
in the
six
months ended
June 30, 2018
due primarily to:
•
a decrease of $4.3 million from comparable properties due primarily to a tax refund from a multi-year appeal and reassessment for three of our properties and $2.7 million due to the new lease accounting standard requirement, which no longer permits the gross up of real estate tax revenue and expense for real estate taxes that our tenants pay directly to the taxing authority (see Note 2 for additional disclosure),
partially offset by
•
an increase of $0.6 million from non-comparable properties due primarily to increases in assessments as a result of our redevelopment activities.
Property Operating Income
Property operating income increased
$15.3 million
, or
4.9%
, to
$324.1 million
in the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to
$308.9 million
in the
six
months ended
June 30, 2018
. This increase is due primarily to growth in earnings at comparable properties, the opening of Phase II at Assembly Row and Pike & Rose, and our acquisition of Fairfax Junction in February 2019, partially offset by property sales.
Other Operating
General and Administrative
General and administrative expense increased
$4.6 million
, or

in the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
from
$16.3 million
in the
six
months ended
June 30, 2018
. This increase is due primarily to higher leasing related costs as certain costs can no longer be capitalized as a result of the new lease accounting standard (see Note 2 for additional disclosure) and higher personnel costs.

Gain on Sale of Real Estate, Net
The
$16.2 million
gain on sale of real estate, net for the

is due primarily to the sale of Free State Shopping Center and a land parcel at Northeast Shopping Center.
The

in the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to
$54.0 million
in the
six
months ended
June 30, 2018
. This increase is due primarily to the following:
•
an increase of $1.9 million due to a higher overall weighted average borrowing rate and
•
a decrease of $1.5 million in capitalized interest, primarily attributable to portions of Phase II of Assembly Row and Pike & Rose being placed in service partially offset by our Santana Row development,
partially offset by
•
a decrease of $1.8 million due to lower weighted average borrowings.
Gross interest costs were $64.8 million and $64.7 million in the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
, respectively. Capitalized interest was $9.2 million and $10.7 million in the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Due to the nature of our business and strategy, we typically generate significant amounts of cash from operations. The cash generated from operations is largely paid to our common and preferred shareholders in the form of dividends. As a REIT, we must generally make annual distributions to shareholders of at least
90%
of our taxable income.
Our short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of normal recurring operating expenses, obligations under our capital and operating leases, regular debt service requirements (including debt service relating to additional or replacement debt, as well as scheduled debt maturities), recurring expenditures, non-recurring expenditures (such as tenant improvements and redevelopments) and dividends to common and preferred shareholders. Our long-term capital requirements consist primarily of maturities under our long-term debt agreements, development and redevelopment costs and potential acquisitions.
We intend to operate with and maintain a conservative capital structure that will allow us to maintain strong debt service coverage and fixed-charge coverage ratios as part of our commitment to investment-grade debt ratings. In the short and long term, we may seek to obtain funds through the issuance of additional equity, unsecured and/or secured debt financings, joint venture relationships relating to existing properties or new acquisitions, and property dispositions that are consistent with this conservative structure.
At
June 30, 2019
, we had cash and cash equivalents of
$105.9 million
and
no
outstanding balance on our
$800.0 million
unsecured revolving credit facility. For the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, the maximum amount of borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility was
$116.5 million
, the weighted average amount of borrowings outstanding was
$45.1 million
and the weighted average interest rate, before amortization of debt fees, was
3.2%
. On July 25, 2019, we amended our revolving credit facility to increase our borrowing capacity to $1.0 billion, lower our spread over LIBOR from 82.5 basis points to 77.5 basis points, and extend the maturity date to January 19, 2024, subject to two six-month extensions at our option. In addition, we have an option (subject to bank approval) to increase the credit facility through an accordion feature to
$1.5 billion
.
On
June 7, 2019
, we issued
$300.0 million
of fixed rate senior unsecured notes that mature on
June 15, 2029
and bear interest at
3.20%
. The net proceeds of
$297.0 million
were primarily used to repay our
$275.0 million
unsecured term loan, which was to mature in November 2019, resulting in no remaining debt maturing in 2019. During the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, we raised
$68.3 million
, after fees and other costs, under our ATM equity program, which as of
June 30, 2019
, had the capacity to issue up to
$203.4 million
in common shares. We currently believe that cash flows from operations, cash on han
22
Table of Contents
d, our ATM program, our revolving credit facility and our general ability to access the capital markets will be sufficient to finance our operations and fund our debt service requirements and capital expenditures.
Our overall capital requirements for the remainder of
2019
will depend upon acquisition opportunities, the level of improvements and redevelopments on existing properties and the timing and cost of development of Assembly Row, Pike & Rose and future phases of Santana Row. While the amount of future expenditures will depend on numerous factors, we expect to see higher levels of capital investments in our properties under development and redevelopment compared to 2018, as we invest in the next phase of these projects. With respect to other capital investments related to our existing properties, we expect to incur levels consistent with prior years. Our capital investments will be funded on a short-term basis with cash flow from operations, cash on hand and/or our revolving credit facility, and on a long-term basis, with long-term debt or equity including shares issued under our ATM equity program. If necessary, we may access the debt or equity capital markets to finance significant acquisitions. Given our past ability to access the capital markets, we expect debt or equity to be available to us. Although there is no intent at this time, if market conditions deteriorate, we may delay the timing of certain development and redevelopment projects as well as limit future acquisitions, reduce our operating expenditures, or re-evaluate our dividend policy.
In addition to conditions in the capital markets which could affect our ability to access those markets, the following factors could affect our ability to meet our liquidity requirements:
•
restrictions in our debt instruments or preferred shares may limit us from incurring debt or issuing equity at all, or on acceptable terms under then-prevailing market conditions; and
•
we may be unable to service additional or replacement debt due to increases in interest rates or a decline in our operating performance.

during the

months ended
June 30, 2019
from
$263.1 million
during the
six
months ended
June 30, 2018
. The decrease was primarily attributable to $12.4 million in net proceeds from the Jordan Downs Plaza new market tax credit transaction in June 2018 and the timing of cash receipts, partially offset by higher net income before certain non-cash items.
Net cash used in investing activities increased
$34.7 million

during the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
from
$78.7 million
during the
six
months ended
June 30, 2018
. The increase was primarily attributable to:
•
a $28.4 million decrease in proceeds from sales of real estate, resulting from a decrease in the sale of condominiums at our Assembly Row and Pike & Rose properties, partially offset by the sale of Free State Shopping Center and a land parcel at Northeast Shopping Center in May 2019, and
•
a $23.4 million increase in acquisition of real estate, primarily due to the acquisition of Fairfax Junction in February 2019,
partially offset by
•
a $15.5 million decrease in capital expenditures as we complete portions of Phase II of both our Assembly Row and Pike & Rose projects.

23

•
a $46.0 million increase in net proceeds from the issuance of
0.5 million
common shares under our ATM program at a weighted average price of
$134.96
during the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, as compared to 0.2 million common shares at a weighted average price of $125.46 in 2018,
partially offset by
•
a $284.7 million increase in repayment of mortgages, finance leases, and notes payable primarily due to the payoff of our $275.0 million unsecured term loan in June 2019 and the $20.3 million payoff of the mortgage loan on Rollingwood Apartments in January 2019, as compared to the $10.5 million payoff of the mortgage loan on the Grove at Shrewsbury (West) in March 2018,
•
a $48.0 million decrease in net borrowings on our revolving credit facility, and
•
a $5.4 million increase in dividends paid to shareholders due to an increase in the common share dividend rate and an increase in the number of common shares outstanding.

The maximum amount drawn under our revolving credit facility during the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
was
$116.5 million
, and the weighted average interest rate on borrowings under our revolving credit facility, before amortization of debt fees, was
3.2%
. On July 25, 2019, we amended our revolving credit facility to increase our borrowing capacity to
$1.0 billion
and extend the maturity date to January 19, 2024. We also lowered the spread over LIBOR to 77.5 basis points.
Our revolving credit facility and other debt agreements include financial and other covenants that may limit our operating activities in the future. As of
June 30, 2019
, we were in compliance with all financial and other covenants related to our revolving credit facility and senior notes. Additionally, as of
June 30, 2019
, we were in compliance with all of the financial and other covenants that could trigger loan default on our mortgage loans. If we were to breach any of these financial and other covenants and did not cure the breach within an applicable cure period, our lenders could require us to repay the debt immediately and, if the debt is secured, could immediately begin proceedings to take possession of the property securing the loan. Many of our debt arrangements, including our public notes and our revolving credit facility, are cross-defaulted, which
25
Table of Contents
means that the lenders under those debt arrangements can put us in default and require immediate repayment of their debt if we breach and fail to cure a default under certain of our other debt obligations. As a result, any default under our debt covenants could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, our results of operations, our ability to meet our obligations and the market value of our shares. Our organizational documents do not limit the level or amount of debt that we may incur.

The total debt maturities differ from the total reported on the consolidated balance sheet due to the unamortized net premium/discount and debt issuance costs on mortgage loans, notes payable, and senior notes as of
June 30, 2019
.
Interest Rate Hedging
We may use derivative instruments to manage exposure to variable interest rate risk. We generally enter into interest rate swaps to manage our exposure to variable interest rate risk and treasury locks to manage the risk of interest rates rising prior to the issuance of debt. We enter into derivative instruments that qualify as cash flow hedges and do not enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes.
The interest rate swaps associated with our cash flow hedges are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. We assess effectiveness of our cash flow hedges both at inception and on an ongoing basis. The effective portion of changes in fair value of the interest rate swaps associated with our cash flow hedges is recorded in other comprehensive income/loss which is included in accumulated other comprehensive loss on our consolidated balance sheet and our consolidated statement of shareholders' equity. Our cash flow hedges become ineffective if critical terms of the hedging instrument and the debt instrument do not perfectly match such as notional amounts, settlement dates, reset dates, calculation period and LIBOR rate. In addition, we evaluate the default risk of the counterparty by monitoring the credit-worthiness of the counterparty which includes reviewing debt ratings and financial performance. However, management does not anticipate non-performance by the counterparty. If a cash flow hedge is deemed ineffective, the ineffective portion of changes in fair value of the interest rate swaps associated with our cash flow hedges is recognized in earnings in the period affected.
As of
June 30, 2019
, our Assembly Row hotel joint venture is party to
two
interest rate swap agreements that effectively fix their debt at
5.206%
. Both swaps were designated and qualify for cash flow hedge accounting. Hedge ineffectiveness has not impacted earnings as of
June 30, 2019
.
REIT Qualification
We intend to maintain our qualification as a REIT under Section 856(c) of the Code. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to corporate federal income taxes on income we distribute to our shareholders as long as we satisfy certain technical requirements of the Code, including the requirement to distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to our shareholders.
26
Table of Contents
Funds From Operations
Funds from operations (“FFO”) is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure of real estate companies’ operating performance. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) defines FFO as follows: net income, computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization and excluding gains and losses on the sale of real estate or changes in control, net of tax, and impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity. We compute FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, and we have historically reported our FFO available for common shareholders in addition to our net income and net cash provided by operating activities. It should be noted that FFO:
•
does not represent cash flows from operating activities in accordance with GAAP (which, unlike FFO, generally reflects all cash effects of transactions and other events in the determination of net income);
•
should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance; and
•
is not necessarily indicative of cash flow as a measure of liquidity or ability to fund cash needs, including the payment of dividends.
We consider FFO available for common shareholders a meaningful, additional measure of operating performance primarily because it excludes the assumption that the value of the real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, as implied by the historical cost convention of GAAP and the recording of depreciation. We use FFO primarily as one of several means of assessing our operating performance in comparison with other REITs. Comparison of our presentation of FFO to similarly titled measures for other REITs may not necessarily be meaningful due to possible differences in the application of the NAREIT definition used by such REITs.
An increase or decrease in FFO available for common shareholders does not necessarily result in an increase or decrease in aggregate distributions because our Board of Trustees is not required to increase distributions on a quarterly basis. However, we must distribute at least
90%
of our annual taxable income to remain qualified as a REIT. Therefore, a significant increase in FFO will generally require an increase in distributions to shareholders although not necessarily on a proportionate basis.
The reconciliation of net income to FFO available for common shareholders is as follows:

The weighted average common shares used to compute FFO per diluted common share includes operating partnership units and our Series 1 preferred shares that were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS. Conversion of these operating partnership units and preferred shares is dilutive in the computation of FFO per diluted common share but is anti-dilutive for the computation of diluted EPS for the periods presented.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our use of financial instruments, such as debt instruments, subjects us to market risk which may affect our future earnings and cash flows, as well as the fair value of our assets. Market risk generally refers to the risk of loss from changes in interest rates and market prices. We manage our market risk by attempting to match anticipated inflow of cash from our operating, investing and financing activities with anticipated outflow of cash to fund debt payments, dividends to common and preferred shareholders, investments, capital expenditures and other cash requirements.
We may enter into certain types of derivative financial instruments to further reduce interest rate risk. We use interest rate protection and swap agreements, for example, to convert some of our variable rate debt to a fixed-rate basis or to hedge anticipated financing transactions. We use derivatives for hedging purposes rather than speculation and do not enter into financial instruments for trading purposes.
Interest Rate Risk
The following discusses the effect of hypothetical changes in market rates of interest on interest expense for our variable rate debt and on the fair value of our total outstanding debt, including our fixed-rate debt. Interest rate risk amounts were determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rates on our debt. Quoted market prices were used to estimate the fair value of our marketable senior notes and debentures and discounted cash flow analysis is generally used to estimate the fair value of our mortgages and notes payable. Considerable judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of financial instruments. This analysis does not purport to take into account all of the factors that may affect our debt, such as the effect that a changing interest rate environment could have on the overall level of economic activity or the action that our management might take to reduce our exposure to the change. This analysis assumes no change in our financial structure.
Fixed Interest Rate Debt
The majority of our outstanding debt obligations (maturing at various times through 2046) have fixed interest rates which limit the risk of fluctuating interest rates. However, interest rate fluctuations may affect the fair value of our fixed rate debt instruments. At
June 30, 2019
, we had
$3.2 billion
of fixed-rate debt outstanding. If market interest rates used to calculate the fair value on our fixed-rate debt instruments at
June 30, 2019
had been
1.0%
higher, the fair value of those debt instruments on that date would have decreased by approximately
$237.5 million
. If market interest rates used to calculate the fair value on our fixed-rate debt instruments at
June 30, 2019
had been
1.0%
lower, the fair value of those debt instruments on that date would have increased by approximately
$272.1 million
.
Variable Interest Rate Debt
Generally, we believe that our primary interest rate risk is due to fluctuations in interest rates on our outstanding variable rate debt. At
June 30, 2019
, our only variable rate debt was our revolving credit facility, which had
no
outstanding balance.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There have been no material developments in any of our legal proceedings since the disclosure contained in our Annual Report to Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2018
.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report for the year ended
December 31, 2018
filed with the SEC on
February 13, 2019
. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
•
risks that our tenants will not pay rent, may vacate early or may file for bankruptcy or that we may be unable to renew leases or re-let space at favorable rents as leases expire;
•
risks that we may not be able to proceed with or obtain necessary approvals for any redevelopment or renovation project, and that completion of anticipated or ongoing property redevelopment or renovation projects that we do pursue may cost more, take more time to complete or fail to perform as expected;
•
risk that we are investing a significant amount in ground-up development projects that may not perform as planned, may be dependent on third parties to deliver critical aspects of certain projects, requires spending a substantial amount upfront in infrastructure, and assumes receipt of public funding which has been committed but not entirely funded;
•
risks normally associated with the real estate industry, including risks that:
•
occupancy levels at our properties and the amount of rent that we receive from our properties may be lower than expected,
•
new acquisitions may fail to perform as expected,
•
competition for acquisitions could result in increased prices for acquisitions,
•
that costs associated with the periodic maintenance and repair or renovation of space, insurance and other operations may increase,
•
environmental issues may develop at our properties and result in unanticipated costs, and
•
because real estate is illiquid, we may not be able to sell properties when appropriate;
•
risks that our growth will be limited if we cannot obtain additional capital;
•
risks associated with general economic conditions, including local economic conditions in our geographic markets;
•
risks of financing, such as our ability to consummate additional financings or obtain replacement financing on terms which are acceptable to us, our ability to meet existing financial covenants and the limitations imposed on our operations by those covenants, and the possibility of increases in interest rates that would result in increased interest expense; and
•
risks related to our status as a real estate investment trust, commonly referred to as a REIT, for federal income tax purposes, such as the existence of complex tax regulations relating to our status as a REIT, the effect of future changes in REIT requirements as a result of new legislation, and the adverse consequences of the failure to qualify as a REIT.
ITEM 2.
UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
Under the terms of various partnership agreements of certain of our affiliated limited partnerships, the interest of limited partners in those limited partnerships may be redeemed, subject to certain conditions, for cash or common shares, at our option. During the three months ended
June 30, 2019
, we issued 42,206 common shares in connection with redemptions of downREIT operating partnership units.
From time to time, we could be deemed to have repurchased shares as a result of shares withheld for tax purposes upon a stock compensation related vesting event.
