All of the Company’s assets are held by, and all of its operations are conducted through, Acadia Realty Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) and entities in which the Operating Partnership owns an interest. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company controlled approximately 95% of the Operating Partnership as the sole general partner and is entitled to share, in proportion to its percentage interest, in the cash distributions and profits and losses of the Operating Partnership. The limited partners primarily represent entities or individuals that contributed their interests in certain properties or entities to the Operating Partnership in exchange for common or preferred units of limited partnership interest (“Common OP Units” or “Preferred OP Units”) and employees who have been awarded restricted Common OP Units (“LTIP Units”) as long-term incentive compensation (Note 13). Limited partners holding Common OP and LTIP Units are generally entitled to exchange their units on a one-for-one basis for common shares of beneficial interest of the Company (“Common Shares”). This structure is referred to as an umbrella partnership REIT or “UPREIT.”

As of June 30, 2017, the Company has ownership interests in 118 properties within its core portfolio, which consist of those properties either 100% owned, or partially owned through joint venture interests, by the Operating Partnership, or subsidiaries thereof, not including those properties owned through its funds (“Core Portfolio”). The Company also has ownership interests in 65 properties within its opportunity funds, Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund II, LLC (“Fund II”), Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund III LLC (“Fund III”), Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund IV LLC (“Fund IV”), and Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund V LLC (“Fund V”). Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund I, LP (“Fund I,” together with Funds II, III, IV, and V, the “Funds”) was liquidated in 2015. The 183 Core Portfolio and Fund properties primarily consist of street and urban retail, and suburban shopping centers. In addition, the Company, together with the investors in the Funds, invest in operating companies through Acadia Mervyn Investors I, LLC (“Mervyns I”), Acadia Mervyn Investors II, LLC (“Mervyns II”) and Fund II, all on a non-recourse basis. The Company consolidates the Funds as it has (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the Funds’ economic performance, (ii) is obligated to absorb the Funds’ losses and (iii) has the right to receive benefits from the Funds that could potentially be significant.

The Operating Partnership is the sole general partner or managing member of the Funds and Mervyns I and II and earns fees or priority distributions for asset management, property management, construction, development, leasing, and legal services. Cash flows from the Funds and Mervyns I and II are distributed pro-rata to their respective partners and members (including the Operating Partnership) until each receives a certain cumulative return (“Preferred Return”) and the return of all capital contributions. Thereafter, remaining cash flow is distributed 20% to the Operating Partnership (“Promote”) and 80% to the partners or members (including the Operating Partnership). All transactions between the Funds and the Operating Partnership have been eliminated in consolidation.

Basis of Presentation

Segments

At June 30, 2017, the Company had three reportable operating segments: Core Portfolio, Funds and Structured Financing. The Company’s chief operating decision maker may review operational and financial data on a property basis and does not differentiate properties on a geographical basis for purposes of allocating resources or capital. Each property is considered a separate operating segment; however, each property on a stand-alone basis represents less than 10% of revenues, profit or loss, and assets of the combined reported operating segment and meets the majority of the aggregations criteria under the applicable standard.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of the Company and its investments in partnerships and limited liability companies in which the Company has control in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810 “Consolidation” (“ASC Topic 810”). The ownership interests of other investors in these entities are recorded as noncontrolling interests. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in entities for which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over, but does not have financial or operating control, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the Company’s share of the earnings (or losses) of these entities are included in consolidated net income.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year. The information furnished in the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflects all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the aforementioned consolidated financial statements for the interim periods. Such adjustments consisted of normal recurring items.

These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on February 24, 2017 and amended on February 27, 2017.

Use of Estimates

GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The most significant assumptions and estimates relate to the valuation of real estate, depreciable lives, revenue recognition and the collectability of notes receivable and rents receivable. Application of these estimates and assumptions requires the exercise of judgment as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model requiring a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount reflecting the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 does not apply to the Company’s lease revenues, but will apply to reimbursed tenant costs. Additionally, this guidance modifies disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, which defers the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for all entities by one year, until years beginning in 2018, with early adoption permitted but not before 2017. Entities may adopt ASU 2014-09 using either a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients or a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of adoption. While the Company is still completing the assessment of the impact of this standard to its consolidated financial statements, management believes the majority of the Company’s revenue falls outside of the scope of this guidance. The Company intends to implement the standard retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized in retained earnings at the date of application.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 outlines a new model for accounting by lessees, whereby their rights and obligations under substantially all leases, existing and new, would be capitalized and recorded on the balance sheet. For lessors, however, the accounting remains largely unchanged from the current model, with the distinction between operating and financing leases retained, but updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model and the new revenue recognition standard discussed above. The new guidance requires that internal leasing costs be expensed as incurred, as opposed to capitalized and deferred. ASU 2016-02 will also require extensive quantitative and qualitative disclosures and is effective beginning after December 15, 2018, but early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of the new standard and has not yet determined if it will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements; however, the Company capitalized internal leasing costs of $0.5 million and $0.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. ASU 2016-13 introduces a new model for estimating credit losses for certain types of financial instruments, including loans receivable, held-to-maturity debt securities, and net investments in direct financing leases, amongst other financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and expands the disclosure requirements regarding an entity’s assumptions, models, and methods for estimating the allowance for losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with adoption permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Retrospective adjustments shall be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows – Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU 2016-15 provides guidance on certain specific cash flow issues, including, but not limited to, debt prepayment or extinguishment costs, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination and distributions received from equity method investees. ASU 2016-15 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted and shall be applied retrospectively where practicable. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations – Clarifying the Definition of a Business. ASU 2017-01 clarifies that to be considered a business, the elements must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create output. The new standard illustrates the circumstances under which real estate with in-place leases would be considered a business and provides guidance for the identification of assets and liabilities in purchase accounting. ASU 2017-01 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2017-01 will have on its consolidated financial statements; however, it is expected that the new standard would reduce the number of future real estate acquisitions that will be accounted for as business combinations and, therefore, reduce the amount of acquisition costs that will be expensed.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-03 Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (Topic 250) and Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323). ASU 2017-03 amends certain SEC guidance in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification in response to SEC staff announcements made during 2016 Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) meetings which addressed (i) the additional qualitative disclosures that a registrant is expected to provide when it cannot reasonably estimate the impact that ASUs 2014-09, 2016-02 and 2016-13 will have in applying the guidance in Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 11.M and (ii) guidance in ASC 323 related to the amendments made by ASU 2014-01 regarding use of the proportional amortization method in accounting for investments in qualified affordable housing projects (announcement made at the November 17, 2016, EITF meeting). The adoption of ASU 2017-03 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05, Other Income—Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets, which amends the guidance on nonfinancial assets in ASC 610-20. The amendments clarify that (i) a financial asset is within the scope of ASC 610-20 if it meets the definition of an in substance nonfinancial asset and may include nonfinancial assets transferred within a legal entity to a counter-party, (ii) an entity should identify each distinct nonfinancial asset or in substance nonfinancial asset promised to a counter-party and de-recognize each asset when a counter-party obtains control of it, and (iii) an entity should allocate consideration to each distinct asset by applying the guidance in ASC 606 on allocating the transaction price to performance obligations. Further, ASU 2017-05 provides guidance on accounting for partial sales of nonfinancial assets. The amendments are effective at the same time as the amendments in ASU 2014-09. The adoption of ASU 2017-05 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting, which clarifies the scope of modification accounting with respect to changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. Modification accounting would not apply if a change to an award does not affect the total current fair value (or other

applicable measurement), vesting conditions, or the classification of the award. For all entities, ASU 2017-09 is effective prospectively for awards modified in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those annual periods and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact ASU 2017-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Real Estate Under Development and Construction in Progress

Real estate under development represents the Company’s consolidated properties that have not yet been placed into service while undergoing substantial development or construction. At December 31, 2016, the Company had one Core property, two properties in Fund II, three properties in Fund III, and eight properties in Fund IV classified as real estate under development. At June 30, 2017, the Company had two Core properties, one property in Fund II, two properties in Fund III and eight properties in Fund IV classified as real estate under development. At December 31, 2016 accumulated costs aggregated $543.5 million. During the first half of 2017, the Company capitalized $0.3 million of additional costs in the Core portfolio and $97.1 million of additional costs in the Fund portfolio, placed substantially all of the City Point project for $432.6 million into service, and reclassified real estate with a carrying value of $0.7 million into real estate under development, resulting in a balance of $209.0 million at June 30, 2017. Depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2017 includes $2.0 million of accelerated depreciation related to a building under development that was demolished.

Construction in progress pertains to construction activity at the Company’s operating properties which are in service and continue to operate during the construction period.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company:

recovered the full value of a $12.0 million Core note receivable, which was previously in default, plus accrued interest and fees aggregating $16.8 million as further described below;
exchanged a $16.0 million Core note receivable plus accrued interest thereon of $0.3 million for an additional undivided interest in one of the properties in the Brandywine Portfolio (Note 4);
funded an additional $10.0 million on an existing Core note receivable, which had a total commitment of $20.0 million;
entered into an agreement to extend the maturity of a $15.0 million Core note receivable to June 1, 2018;
increased the balance of a Fund II note receivable by the interest accrued of $0.4 million;
advanced an additional $0.3 million on a Fund III note receivable; and
exchanged a $9.0 million Fund IV note receivable plus accrued interest of $0.2 million thereon for an investment in a shopping center in Windham, Maine (Note 2).

During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company:

issued one Core note receivable and three Fund IV notes receivable aggregating $47.5 million with a weighted-average effective interest rate of 9.8%, which were collateralized by four mixed-use real estate properties;
received total collections of $42.8 million, including full repayment of five notes issued in prior periods aggregating $29.6 million; and
restructured a $30.9 million Core mezzanine loan, which bore interest at 15.0%, and replaced it with a new $153.4 million loan collateralized by a first mortgage in the borrower’s tenancy-in-common interest. The loan bears interest at 8.1% (Note 4).

At December 31, 2016, one of the Core notes receivable in the amount of $12.0 million was in default; however, no principal reserve was established because the estimated fair value of the real estate collateral exceeded the estimated carrying value of the note. In February 2017, there was an auction pursuant to an Order of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York for the property which is collateral for this note. The winning bid was in excess of the Company’s carrying value and accrued interest. The sale of this property was approved by Order of the Bankruptcy Court confirming the Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of the note issuer and closed during the second quarter of 2017. In connection with this sale, the Company recovered its full carrying value of principal and interest and recognized additional interest income and expense reimbursements of $2.2 million in the first quarter of 2017 and $1.4 million in the second quarter of 2017 upon settlement of this transaction.

The Company monitors the credit quality of its notes receivable on an ongoing basis and considers indicators of credit quality such as loan payment activity, the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, the seniority of the Company’s loan in relation to other debt secured by the collateral and the prospects of the borrower.

Earnings from these notes and mortgages receivable are reported within the Company’s Structured Financing segment (Note 12).

Core Portfolio

The Company owns a 49% interest in a 311,000 square foot shopping center located in White Plains, New York (“Crossroads”), a 50% interest in a 28,000 square foot retail portfolio located in Georgetown, Washington D.C. (the “Georgetown Portfolio”), an 88.43% tenancy-in-common interest in an 87,000 square foot retail property located in Chicago, Illinois (“840 N. Michigan”), and a 49% noncontrolling interest in an approximately 123,000 square foot retail property located in Manhattan, New York (“Gotham Plaza”).

On January 4, 2017, an entity in which the Company owns a 20% noncontrolling interest (the “Renaissance Portfolio”), acquired a 6,200 square foot property in Alexandria, Virginia referred to as (“907 King Street”) for $3.0 million. The Renaissance Portfolio is now a 213,000 square-foot portfolio of 18 mixed-use properties, 16 of which are located in Georgetown, Washington D.C. and two of which are located in Alexandria, Virginia.

Brandywine Portfolio and Brandywine Market Square

The Company owns an interest in an approximately one million square foot retail portfolio (the “Brandywine Portfolio” joint venture) located in Wilmington, Delaware, which includes a property referred to as “Brandywine Market Square.” Prior to the second quarter of 2016, the Company had a controlling interest in the Brandywine Portfolio, and it was therefore consolidated within the Company’s financial statements. During April 2016, the arrangement with the partners of the Brandywine Portfolio was modified to change the legal ownership from a partnership to a tenancy-in-common interest, as well as to provide certain participating rights to the outside partners. As a result of these modifications, the Company de-consolidated the Brandywine Portfolio and accounts for its interest under the equity method of accounting effective May 1, 2016. Furthermore, as the owners of the Brandywine Portfolio had consistent ownership interests before and after the modification and the underlying net assets are unchanged, the Company has reflected the change from consolidation to equity method based upon its historical cost. The Brandywine Portfolio and Brandywine Market Square ventures do not include the property held by Brandywine Holdings, Inc., an entity consolidated by the Company.

Additionally, in April 2016, the Company repaid the outstanding balance of $140.0 million of non-recourse debt collateralized by the Brandywine Portfolio and provided a note receivable collateralized by the partners’ tenancy-in-common interest in the Brandywine Portfolio for their proportionate share of the repayment. On May 1, 2017, the Company exchanged $16.0 million of the $153.4 million note receivable (Note 3) plus accrued interest of $0.3 million for one of the partner’s 38.89% tenancy-in-common interests in Brandywine Market Square. The Company already had a 22.22% interest in Brandywine Market Square and continues to apply the equity method of accounting for its aggregate 61.11% noncontrolling interest in Brandywine Market Square and its 22.22% interest in the rest of the Brandywine Portfolio. The incremental investment in Brandywine Market Square was recorded at $16.6 million and the excess of this amount over the venture’s book value associated with this interest, or $9.8 million, will be amortized over the remaining depreciable lives of the venture’s assets.

Fund Investments

Fund III Other Portfolio includes the Company’s investment in Arundel Plaza through its date of sale in February 2017. Fund IV Other Portfolio includes the Company’s investment in Promenade at Manassas and Eden Square as well as 2819 Kennedy Boulevard and 1701 Belmont Avenue through their dates of sale.

Self-Storage Management, a Fund III investment, was determined to be a variable interest entity. Management has evaluated the applicability of ASC Topic 810 to this joint venture and determined that the Company is not the primary beneficiary and, therefore, consolidation of this venture is not required.

On January 31, 2017, Fund IV completed the disposition of 2819 Kennedy Boulevard, for $19.0 million less $8.4 million debt repayment for net proceeds of $10.6 million, resulting in a gain on disposition of $6.3 million at the property level, of which the Fund’s share was $6.2 million, which is included in equity earnings and gains from unconsolidated affiliates in the consolidated financial statements. The Operating Partnership’s proportionate share of the gain was $1.4 million, net of noncontrolling interests.

On February 15, 2017, Fund III completed the disposition of Arundel Plaza, for $28.8 million less $10.0 million debt repayments for net proceeds of $18.8 million, resulting in a gain on disposition of $8.2 million at the property level, of which the Fund’s share was $5.3 million, which is included in equity earnings and gains from unconsolidated affiliates in the consolidated financial statements. The Operating Partnership’s proportionate share of the gain was $1.3 million, net of noncontrolling interests.

On June 30, 2017, Fund IV completed the disposition of 1701 Belmont Avenue, for $5.6 million less $2.9 million debt repayments for net proceeds of $2.7 million, resulting in a gain on disposition of $3.3 million at the property level, of which the Fund’s share was $3.3 million, which is included in equity earnings and gains from unconsolidated affiliates in the consolidated financial statements. The Operating Partnership’s proportionate share of the gain was $0.8 million, net of noncontrolling interests.

On January 28, 2016, Fund III completed the disposition of a 65% interest in Cortlandt Town Center for $107.3 million resulting in a gain of $65.4 million and the deconsolidation of its remaining interest (Note 2). On December 21, 2016, Fund III completed the disposition of its remaining 35% interest in Cortlandt Town Center for $57.8 million less $32.6 million debt repayment for a net sales price of $25.2 million resulting in a gain on sale of $36.0 million, of which the Operating Partnership’s share was $8.8 million.

Fees from Unconsolidated Affiliates

The Company earned property management, construction, development, legal and leasing fees from its investments in unconsolidated partnerships totaling $0.3 million and $0.4 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $0.6 million and $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, which is included in other revenues in the consolidated financial statements.

In addition, the Company paid to certain unaffiliated partners of its joint ventures, $0.4 million and $0.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $0.9 million and $1.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively for leasing commissions, development, management, construction and overhead fees.

Mortgages Payable

During 2017, the Company obtained nine new non-recourse mortgages totaling $130.0 million with a weighted-average interest rate of 3.38% collateralized by nine properties, which mature between February 14, 2020 and April 1, 2022. The Company entered into interest rate swap contracts to effectively fix the interest rates of seven of these obligations with a notional value of $67.3 million at a weighted-average rate of 1.92%. During 2017, the Company repaid two mortgages in full, which had a total balance of $28.1 million and a weighted-average interest rate of 5.42%, and made scheduled principal payments of $1.9 million. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company’s mortgages were collateralized by 47 and 39 properties, respectively, and the related tenant leases. Certain loans are cross-collateralized and contain cross-default provisions. The loan agreements contain customary representations, covenants and events of default. Certain loan agreements require the Company to comply with affirmative and negative covenants, including the maintenance of debt service coverage and leverage ratios. A portion of the Company’s variable-rate mortgage debt has been effectively fixed through certain cash flow hedge transactions (Note 8).

The mortgage loan related to Brandywine Holdings in the Company’s Core Portfolio amounted to $26.3 million and was in default at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. This loan bears interest at 5.99%, excluding default interest of 5%, and is collateralized by a property, in which the Company holds a 22% controlling interest. In April 2017, the lender on this mortgage initiated a lawsuit against the Company for the full balance of the principal, accrued interest as well as penalties and fees aggregating approximately $31.0 million. The Company’s management believes that the mortgage is not recourse to the Company and that the suit is without merit.

In addition, at June 30, 2017, a mortgage loan in the amount of $14.3 million and collateralized by a Fund II property, was in default because its liquidity covenant had been breached.

Unsecured Notes Payable

The Company completed the following transactions related to its unsecured notes payable during the six months ended June 30, 2017:

The Company reduced its maximum commitment available on the Fund IV subscription line of credit from $100.0 million to $21.5 million. Furthermore, upon repayment of $74.1 million, net of $10.0 million in draws, the Company was in compliance with its liquidity covenant at June 30, 2017 which was not in compliance at December 31, 2016. The balance was $20.4 million at June 30, 2017 and $94.5 million at December 31, 2016. Total available credit at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $0.0 and $55.5 million respectively on this line.

During the quarter, the Company obtained a new Fund V subscription line in the amount of $150.0 million. Fund V drew down $45.4 million and repaid $1.0 million. The total outstanding balance was $44.4 million as of June 30, 2017. Total available credit at June 30, 2017 was $105.6 million.

Unsecured Line of Credit

At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 the Company had a total of $114.7 million and $147.5 million, respectively available under its unsecured line of credit.

The Company completed the following transaction related to its unsecured line of credit during the six months ended June 30, 2017:

In connection with the repayment of a secured mortgage note payable during the second quarter of 2017, the Company drew down a total of $24.0 million on the Core unsecured line of credit. The total outstanding balance was $24.0 million as of June 30, 2017.

8. Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

The fair value of an asset is defined as the exit price, which is the amount that would either be received when an asset is sold or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers are: Level 1, for which quoted market prices for identical instruments are available in active markets, such as money market funds, equity securities, and U.S. Treasury securities; Level 2, for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the instrument, such as certain derivative instruments including interest rate caps and interest rate swaps; and Level 3, for financial instruments or other assets/liabilities that do not fall into Level 1 or Level 2 and for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring the Company to develop its own assumptions.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The methods and assumptions described below were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument. For significant Level 3 items, the Company has also provided the unobservable inputs along with their weighted-average ranges.

Money Market Funds — The Company has money market funds, which are included in Cash and cash equivalents in the consolidated financial statements, are comprised of government securities and/or U.S. Treasury bills. These funds were classified as Level 1 as we used quoted prices from active markets to determine their fair values.

Derivative Assets — The Company has derivative assets, which are included in Other assets, net in the consolidated financial statements, are comprised of interest rate swaps. The interest rate swaps were measured at fair value using readily observable market inputs, such as quotations on interest rates, and were classified as Level 2 as these instruments are custom, over-the-counter contracts with various bank counterparties that are not traded in an active market. See “Derivative Financial Instruments,” below.


Derivative Liabilities
 — The Company has derivative liabilities, which are included in Accounts payable and other liabilities in the consolidated financial statements, are comprised of interest rate swaps. These derivative instruments were measured at fair value using readily observable market inputs, such as quotations on interest rates, and were classified as Level 2 because they are custom, over-the-counter contracts with various bank counterparties that are not traded in an active market. See “Derivative Financial Instruments,” below.

The Company did not have any transfers into or out of Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 measurements during the six months ended June 30, 2017 or 2016.

In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

All of the Company’s derivative instruments have been designated as cash flow hedges and hedge the future cash outflows on variable rate mortgage debt (Note 7).

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources and duration of its debt funding and, from time to time, through the use of derivative financial instruments. The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the values of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s investments and borrowings.

The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to the Swaps if the derivative position has a positive balance. The Company believes it mitigates its credit risk by entering into Swaps with major financial institutions. The Company continually monitors and actively manages interest costs on its variable-rate debt portfolio and may enter into additional interest rate swap positions or other derivative interest rate instruments based on market conditions. The Company has not entered, and does not plan to enter, into any derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

also considered the value of the underlying collateral, taking into account the quality of the collateral, the credit quality of the borrower, the time until maturity and the current market interest rate environment.
(b)
The Company determined the estimated fair value of the unsecured notes payable and unsecured line of credit using quoted market prices in an open market with limited trading volume where available. In cases where there was no trading volume, the Company determined the estimated fair value using a discounted cash flow model using a rate that reflects the average yield of similar market participants.

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and certain financial instruments included in other assets and other liabilities had fair values that approximated their carrying values at June 30, 2017.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

__________

(a)
Noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership are comprised of (i) the limited partners’ 3,361,397 and 3,317,760 Common OP Units at June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively; (ii) 188 Series A Preferred OP Units at June 30, 2017 and 2016; (iii) 140,343 and 141,593 Series C Preferred OP Units at June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively; and (iv) 2,266,957 and 1,990,081 LTIP units as of June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, as discussed in Share Incentive Plan (Note 13). Distributions declared for Preferred OP Units are reflected in net income in the table above.
(b)
Noncontrolling interests in partially-owned affiliates comprise third-party interests in Funds II, III, IV and V, and Mervyns I and II, and six other subsidiaries.
(c)
During the first quarter of 2016, the Company acquired an additional 8.3% interest in Fund II from a limited partner for $18.4 million, giving the Company an aggregate 28.33% interest. Amount in the table above represents the book value of this transaction.

(d)
Adjustment reflects the difference between the fair value of the consideration received or paid and the book value of the Common Shares, Common OP Units, Preferred OP Units, and LTIP Units involving changes in ownership (the "Rebalancing").

Preferred OP Units

There were no issuances of Preferred OP Units and 1,250 Series C Preferred OP Units were exchanged for common shares of the Company during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

In 1999 the Operating Partnership issued 1,580 Series A Preferred OP Units in connection with the acquisition of a property, which have a stated value of $1,000 per unit, and are entitled to a preferred quarterly distribution of the greater of (i) $22.50 (9% annually) per Series A Preferred OP Unit or (ii) the quarterly distribution attributable to a Series A Preferred OP Unit if such unit was converted into a Common OP Unit. Through December 31, 2016, 1,392 Series A Preferred OP Units were converted into 185,600 Common OP Units and then into Common Shares. The 188 remaining Series A Preferred OP Units are currently convertible into Common OP Units based on the stated value divided by $7.50. Either the Company or the holders can currently call for the conversion of the Series A Preferred OP Units at the lesser of $7.50 or the market price of the Common Shares as of the conversion date.

During the first quarter of 2016, the Operating Partnership issued 442,478 Common OP Units and 141,593 Series C Preferred OP Units to a third party to acquire Gotham Plaza (Note 4). The Series C Preferred OP Units have a value of $100.00 per unit and are entitled to a preferred quarterly distribution of $0.9375 per unit and are convertible into Common OP Units at a rate based on the share price at the time of conversion. If the share price is below $28.80 on the conversion date, each Series C Preferred OP Unit will be convertible into 3.4722 Common OP Units. If the share price is between $28.80 and $35.20 on the conversion date, each Series C Preferred OP Units will be convertible a number of Common OP Units equal to $100.00 divided by the closing share price. If the share price is above $35.20 on the conversion date, each Series C Preferred OP Units will be convertible into 2.8409 Common OP Units. The Series C Preferred OP Units have a mandatory conversion date of December 31, 2025, at which time all units that have not been converted will automatically be converted into Common OP Units based on the same calculations.

11. Leases

Operating Leases

The Company is engaged in the operation of shopping centers and other retail properties that are either owned or, with respect to certain shopping centers, operated under long-term ground leases that expire at various dates through June 20, 2066, with renewal options. Space in the shopping centers is leased to tenants pursuant to agreements that provide for terms ranging generally from one month to ninety nine years and generally provide for additional rents based on certain operating expenses as well as tenants’ sales volumes.

The Company leases land at seven of its shopping centers, which are accounted for as operating leases and generally provide the Company with renewal options. Ground rent expense was $1.8 million and $1.0 million (including capitalized ground rent at properties under development of $0.1 million and $0.3 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The leases terminate at various dates between 2020 and 2066. These leases provide the Company with options to renew for additional terms aggregating from 25 to 71 years. The Company also leases space for its corporate office. Office rent expense under this lease was $0.4 million and $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Capital Lease

During 2016, the Company entered into a 49-year master lease at 991 Madison Avenue, which is accounted for as a capital lease. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, lease expense totaling $1.5 million and $0.7 million, respectively were made under this lease. The lease was initially valued at $76.6 million, which represents the total discounted payments to be made under the lease. The property under the capital lease is included in Note 2.

Lease Obligations

The scheduled future minimum (i) rental revenues from rental properties under the terms of all non-cancelable tenant leases, assuming no new or renegotiated leases or option extensions for such premises and (ii) rental payments under the terms of all non-cancelable operating and capital leases in which the Company is the lessee, principally for office space and ground leases, as of June 30, 2017, are summarized as follows (in thousands):

A ground lease expiring during 2078 provides the Company with an option to purchase the underlying land during 2031. If the Company does not exercise the option, the rents that will be due are based on future values and as such are not determinable at this time. Accordingly, the above table does not include rents for this lease beyond 2031.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, no single tenant collectively comprised more than 10% of the Company’s consolidated total revenues.

12. Segment Reporting

The Company has three reportable segments: Core Portfolio, Funds and Structured Financing. The Company’s Core Portfolio consists primarily of high-quality retail properties located primarily in high-barrier-to-entry, densely-populated metropolitan areas with a long-term investment horizon. The Company’s Funds hold primarily retail real estate in which the Company co-invests with high-quality institutional investors. The Company’s Structured Financing segment consists of earnings and expenses related to notes and mortgages receivable which are held within the Core Portfolio or the Funds (Note 3). Fees earned by the Company as the general partner or managing member of the Funds are eliminated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and are not presented in the Company’s segments. During 2016, the Company revised how it allocates general and administrative and income tax expenses among its segments to reflect all such expenses as unallocated corporate expenses. The presentation of the 2016 interim periods have been revised to reflect this change.

13. Share Incentive and Other Compensation

Share Incentive Plan

The Second Amended and Restated 2006 Incentive Plan (the “Share Incentive Plan”) authorizes the Company to issue options, Restricted Shares, LTIP Units and other securities (collectively “Awards”) to, among others, the Company’s officers, trustees and employees. At June 30, 2017 total of 1,794,293 shares remained available to be issued under this plan.

Restricted Shares and LTIP Units

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company issued 292,255 LTIP Units and 7,628 Restricted Share Units to employees of the Company pursuant to the Share Incentive Plan. These awards were measured at their fair value on the grant date, which was established as the market price of the Company’s Common Shares as of the close of trading on the day preceding the grant date. The total value of the above Restricted Share Units and LTIP Units as of the grant date was $9.8 million, of which $2.2 million was recognized as compensation expense in 2016, and $7.6 million will be recognized as compensation expense over the remaining vesting period. Total long-term incentive compensation expense, including the expense related to the Share Incentive Plan, was $4.5 million and $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively and is recorded in General and Administrative on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

In addition, members of the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) have been issued units under the Share Incentive Plan. During 2017, the Company issued 11,814 Restricted Shares and 11,105 LTIP Units to Trustees of the Company in connection with Trustee fees. Vesting with respect to 3,864 of the Restricted Shares and 5,805 of the LTIP Units will be on the first anniversary of the date of issuance and 7,950 of the Restricted Shares and 5,300 of the LTIP Units vest over three years with 33% vesting on each of the next three anniversaries of the issuance date. The Restricted Shares do not carry voting rights or other rights of Common Shares until vesting and may not be transferred, assigned or pledged until the recipients have a vested non-forfeitable right to such shares. Dividends are not paid currently on unvested Restricted Shares, but are paid cumulatively from the issuance date through the applicable vesting date of such Restricted Shares. Total trustee fee expense, included the expense related to the Share Incentive Plan, was $0.3 million for each of the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

In 2009, the Company adopted the Long Term Investment Alignment Program (the “Program”) pursuant to which the Company may grant awards to employees, entitling them to receive up to 25% of any potential future payments of Promote to the Operating Partnership from Funds III and IV. The Company has granted such awards to employees representing 25% of the potential Promote payments from Fund III to the Operating Partnership and 14.4% of the potential Promote payments from Fund IV to the Operating Partnership. Payments to senior executives under the Program require further Board approval at the time any potential payments are due pursuant to these grants. Compensation relating to these awards will be recognized in each reporting period in which Board approval is granted.

As payments to other employees are not subject to further Board approval, compensation relating to these awards will be recorded based on the estimated fair value at each reporting period in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation– Stock Compensation. The awards in connection with Fund IV were determined to have no intrinsic value as of June 30, 2017.

Compensation expense of $0.4 million and $1.5 million was recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, related to the Program in connection with Fund III.

The weighted-average grant date fair value for Restricted Shares and LTIP Units granted for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016 were $32.28 and $34.50, respectively. As of June 30, 2017, there was $18.3 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Share Incentive Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.5 years. The total fair value of Restricted Shares that vested for each of the six months ended June 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016, was $0.7 million. The total fair value of LTIP Units that vested during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016, was $7.4 million and $13.6 million, respectively.

Other Plans

On a combined basis, the Company incurred a total of $0.3 million related to the following employee benefit plans for each of the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively:

Employee Share Purchase Plan

The Acadia Realty Trust Employee Share Purchase Plan (the “Purchase Plan”), allows eligible employees of the Company to purchase Common Shares through payroll deductions. The Purchase Plan provides for employees to purchase Common Shares on a quarterly basis at a 15% discount to the closing price of the Company’s Common Shares on either the first day or the last day of the quarter, whichever is lower. A participant may not purchase more the $25,000 in Common Shares per year. Compensation expense will be recognized by the Company to the extent of the above discount to the closing price of the Common Shares with respect to the applicable quarter. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, a total of 2,407 and 2,334 Common Shares, respectively, were purchased by employees under the Purchase Plan.

Deferred Share Plan

During May of 2006, the Company adopted a Trustee Deferral and Distribution Election (“Trustee Deferral Plan”), under which the participating Trustees earn deferred compensation.

Employee 401(k) Plan

The Company maintains a 401(k) plan for employees under which the Company currently matches 50% of a plan participant’s contribution up to 6% of the employee’s annual salary. A plan participant may contribute up to a maximum of 15% of their compensation, up to $18,000, for the year ended December 31, 2017.

14. Earnings Per Common Share

Basic earnings per Common Share is computed by dividing net income attributable to Common Shareholders by the weighted average Common Shares outstanding. During the periods presented, the Company had unvested LTIP Units which provide for non-forfeitable rights to dividend equivalent payments. Accordingly, these unvested LTIP Units are considered participating securities and are included in the computation of basic earnings per Common Share pursuant to the two-class method.

Diluted earnings per Common Share reflects the potential dilution of the conversion of obligations and the assumed exercises of securities including the effects of restricted share units (“Restricted Share Units”) and share option awards issued under the Company’s Share Incentive Plans (Note 13). The effect of such shares is excluded from the calculation of earnings per share when anti-dilutive as indicated in the table below.

The effect of the conversion of Common OP Units is not reflected in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share, as they are exchangeable for Common Shares on a one-for-one basis. The income allocable to such units is allocated on this same basis and reflected as noncontrolling interests in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As such, the assumed conversion of these units would have no net impact on the determination of diluted earnings per share.

15. Subsequent Events

Financing and Hedging

On July 5, the Company repaid a Core mortgage in the amount of $28.6 million.

On July 7, the Company executed a ten-year interest rate swap for a notional amount of $25.0 million as a hedge against increases in future interest rates on its previously unhedged variable-rate Core borrowings.

Dispositions

On July 6, Fund III sold its consolidated New Hyde Park Shopping Center for $22.1 million. As this sale was probable of occurring at June 30, the property was classified as held for sale at that date (Note 2).

On July 14, Fund II entered into a purchase and sale agreement for the sale of its City Point Tower I property for $96.0 million. As the carrying amount less estimated costs to sell was $92.0 million at June 30, 2017, the Company anticipates recording an impairment charge of approximately $4.0 million during the third quarter of 2017.

Acquisition

On July 27, Fund V acquired a retail property for $44.0 million. It is not practicable to disclose the preliminary purchase price allocation or consolidated pro forma financial information for this transaction given the short period of time between the acquisition dates and the filing of this Report.

ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

OVERVIEW

As of June 30, 2017, we owned 183 properties, which we own or have an ownership interest in, within our Core Portfolio or Funds. Our Core Portfolio consists of those properties either 100% owned, or partially owned through joint venture interests by the Operating Partnership, or subsidiaries thereof, not including those properties owned through our Funds. These properties primarily consist of street and urban retail, and dense suburban shopping centers. The following sets forth a summary of our wholly-owned and partially-owned retail properties and their physical occupancies at June 30, 2017:

The majority of our operating income is derived from rental revenues from operating properties, including expense recoveries from tenants, offset by operating and overhead expenses. As our RCP Venture invests in operating companies, we consider these investments to be private-equity style, as opposed to real estate, investments. Since these are not traditional investments in operating rental real estate but investments in operating businesses, the Operating Partnership typically invests in these through a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”).

Our primary business objective is to acquire and manage commercial retail properties that will provide cash for distributions to shareholders while also creating the potential for capital appreciation to enhance investor returns. We focus on the following fundamentals to achieve this objective:

Own and operate a Core Portfolio of high-quality retail properties located primarily in high-barrier-to-entry, densely-populated metropolitan areas and create value through accretive development and re-tenanting activities coupled with the acquisition of high-quality assets that have the long-term potential to outperform the asset class as part of our Core asset recycling and acquisition initiative.

Generate additional external growth through an opportunistic yet disciplined acquisition program within our Funds. We target transactions with high inherent opportunity for the creation of additional value through:

value-add investments in street retail properties, located in established and “next generation” submarkets, with re-tenanting or repositioning opportunities,
opportunistic acquisitions of well-located real-estate anchored by distressed retailers, and
other opportunistic acquisitions which may include high-yield acquisitions and purchases of distressed debt.


 
40
 





Some of these investments historically have also included, and may in the future include, joint ventures with private equity investors for the purpose of making investments in operating retailers with significant embedded value in their real estate assets.

Maintain a strong and flexible balance sheet through conservative financial practices while ensuring access to sufficient capital to fund future growth.

SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENTS DURING FIRST HALF 2017

The results of operations for our Core Portfolio segment are depicted in the table above under the headings labeled “Core.” Segment net income attributable to Acadia for our Core Portfolio increased by $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period as a result of the changes as further described below.

Revenues from our Core Portfolio increased by $6.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period due to property acquisitions in 2016 (Note 2).

Depreciation and amortization for our Core Portfolio increased by $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period due to property acquisitions in 2016.

Property operating, other operating expenses and real estate taxes for our Core Portfolio increased by $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period due to property acquisitions in 2016.

Funds

The results of operations for our Funds segment are depicted in the table above under the headings labeled “Funds.” Segment net income attributable to Acadia for the Funds decreased by $7.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period as a result of the changes described below.

Revenues from the Funds increased by $8.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period due to property acquisitions in 2016 and 2017 as well as substantially all of the City Point development project being placed in service in 2017 (Note 2).

Depreciation and amortization for the Funds increased by $7.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period due to the acquisitions in 2016 and 2017 as well as substantially all of the City Point development project being placed in service in 2017.

Property operating, other operating expenses and real estate taxes for the Funds increased by $4.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period due to the acquisitions in 2016 and 2017.

Gain on disposition of properties for the Funds decreased by $16.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period due to the sale of Heritage Shops in Fund III in the prior year period (Note 2).

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates for the Funds increased by $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period due to the Fund’s proportionate share of a $3.3 million gain from the sale of 1701 Belmont Avenue (Note 4).

Interest expense for the Funds increased by $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period due to a $2.7 million increase related to higher average interest rates in 2017, a $0.3 million increase related to higher average outstanding borrowings in 2017 and $1.0 million increase related to amortization of higher loan costs in 2017.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Funds decreased by $14.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period primarily due to the gain on disposition of properties discussed above.

Unallocated

The Company does not allocate general and administrative expense and income taxes to its reportable segments.

Core Portfolio

Segment net income attributable to Acadia for our Core Portfolio increased by $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period as a result of the changes as further described below.

Revenues from our Core Portfolio increased by $13.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period due to property acquisitions in 2016 as well as the accrual of reimbursements in the current year period related to a real estate tax reassessment for certain properties for $1.8 million, see below.

Depreciation and amortization for our Core Portfolio increased by $6.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period due to property acquisitions in 2016.

Property operating, other operating expenses and real estate taxes for our Core Portfolio increased by $6.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period with $4.4 million due to property acquisitions in 2016 and $1.8 million due to an increased real estate tax reassessment for certain properties.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in our Core Portfolio decreased by $2.0 million for the six months ended compared to the prior year period primarily due to the change in control of the Brandywine Portfolio (Note 4).

Funds

Segment net income attributable to Acadia for the Funds decreased by $26.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period as a result of the changes described below.


 
44
 





Revenues from the Funds increased by $16.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period primarily due to $9.2 million from property acquisitions in 2016 and 2017 as well as $6.6 million from substantially all of the City Point development project being placed in service during 2017 (Note 2).

Depreciation and amortization for the Funds increased by $12.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period primarily due to $7.0 million from the acquisitions in 2016 and 2017 as well as $5.1 million from substantially all of the City Point development project being placed in service during 2017.

Property operating, other operating expenses and real estate taxes for the Funds increased by $7.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period due to the acquisitions in 2016 and 2017 as well as substantially all of the City Point development project being placed in service during 2017.

Gain on disposition of properties for the Funds decreased by $82.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period with $16.6 million due to the sale of Fund III’s Heritage Shops and $65.4 million due to the sale of a 65% interest in Cortlandt Town Center in the prior year period (Note 2).

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates for the Funds increased by $13.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period primarily due to the Fund’s proportionate share of $11.5 million from the sale of 1701 Belmont Avenue, Arundel Plaza and 2819 Kennedy Boulevard (Note 4).

Interest expense for the Funds increased by $7.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period due to a $3.1 million increase related to higher average interest rates in 2017, $2.8 million increase related to higher average outstanding borrowings in 2017 and a $1.2 million increase in amortization of additional loan costs in 2017.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Funds decreased by $52.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period primarily due to the gain on disposition of properties discussed above.

Structured Financing

Interest income and segment net income attributable to Acadia from Structured Financing increased by $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 compared to the prior year period primarily due to the recognition of default interest of $3.6 million during the current year period on a past due note (Note 3) and new loans originated during 2016.

Unallocated

The Company does not allocate general and administrative expense and income taxes to its reportable segments.

SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL MEASURES

Net Property Operating Income

The following discussion of net property operating income (“NOI”) and rent spreads on new and renewal leases includes the activity from both our consolidated and our pro-rata share of unconsolidated properties within our Core Portfolio. Our Funds invest primarily in properties that typically require significant leasing and development. Given that the Funds are finite-life investment vehicles, these properties are sold following stabilization. For these reasons, we believe NOI and rent spreads are not meaningful measures for our Fund investments.

NOI represents property revenues less property expenses. We consider NOI and rent spreads on new and renewal leases for our Core Portfolio to be appropriate supplemental disclosures of portfolio operating performance due to their widespread acceptance and use within the REIT investor and analyst communities. NOI and rent spreads on new and renewal leases are presented to assist investors in analyzing our property performance, however, our method of calculating these may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

Funds from Operations

We consider funds from operations (“FFO”) as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) to be an appropriate supplemental disclosure of operating performance for an equity REIT due to its widespread acceptance and use within the REIT and analyst communities. FFO is presented to assist investors in analyzing our performance. It is helpful as it excludes various items included in net income that are not indicative of the operating performance, such as gains (losses) from sales of depreciated property, depreciation and amortization, and impairment of depreciable real estate. Our method of calculating FFO may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. FFO does not represent cash generated from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and is not indicative of cash available to fund all cash needs, including distributions. It should not be considered as an alternative to net income for the purpose of evaluating our performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Consistent with the NAREIT definition, we define FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (losses) from sales of depreciated property and impairment of depreciable real estate, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Uses of Liquidity and Cash Requirements

Our principal uses of liquidity are (i) distributions to our shareholders and OP unit holders, (ii) investments which include the funding of our capital committed to the Funds and property acquisitions and development/re-tenanting activities within our Core Portfolio, (iii) distributions to our Fund investors and (iv) debt service and loan repayments.

Distributions

In order to qualify as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes, we must currently distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to our shareholders. During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we paid dividends and distributions on our Common Shares, Common OP Units and Preferred OP Units totaling $56.0 million. This amount included a $13.3 million special dividend that was paid in January 2017, which related to the Operating Partnership’s share of cash proceeds from property distributions during 2016. The balance of the distribution was funded from the Operating Partnership’s share of operating cash flow.

Distributions of $3.6 million were made to noncontrolling interests in Fund III during the six months ended June 30, 2017. This resulted from proceeds related to the disposition of Arundel Plaza as discussed in Note 4.

Investments in Real Estate

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, within our Core and Fund portfolios we acquired four properties aggregating $82.9 million as follows:

Fund V acquired a consolidated property for $35.2 million (Note 2);
Fund IV acquired a consolidated property for $35.4 million (Note 2);
Fund IV acquired a consolidated property in exchange for a $9.2 million note receivable and accrued interest (Note 3); and
In our Core portfolio, our Renaissance investment, in which we hold a 20% interest, we acquired a $3.0 million property (Note 4).

Capital Commitments

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we made capital contributions of $6.0 million to Fund IV in connection with acquisitions and development costs. Capital contributed will be used by the Funds to acquire and operate real estate assets. At June 30, 2017, our share of the remaining capital commitments to our Funds aggregated $149.9 million as follows:

Fund II was launched in June 2004 with total committed capital of $300.0 million of which our share was $85.0 million, which has been fully funded.
$13.1 million to Fund III. Fund III was launched in May 2007 with total committed capital of $450.0 million of which our original share was $89.6 million. During 2015, we acquired an additional interest, which had an original capital commitment of $20.9 million.
$32.3 million to Fund IV. Fund IV was launched in May 2012 with total committed capital of $530.0 million of which our original share was $122.5 million.
$104.5 million to Fund V. Fund V was launched in August 2016 with total committed capital of $520.0 million of which our initial share is $104.5 million.

Development Activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, capitalized costs associated with development activities totaled $46.3 million. These costs primarily related to Fund II’s City Point project. At June 30, 2017, we had 13 properties under development for which the estimated total cost to complete these projects through 2020 was $102.0 million to $144.0 million and our share was approximately $34.1 million to $38.9 million.

As of June 30, 2017, our consolidated outstanding mortgage and notes payable aggregated $1,561.0 million, excluding unamortized premium of $1.0 million and unamortized loan costs of $18.2 million, and were collateralized by 47 properties and related tenant leases. Interest rates on our outstanding indebtedness ranged from 1.00% to 6.00% with maturities that ranged from August 1, 2017, to April 15, 2035. Taking into consideration $430.8 million of notional principal under variable to fixed-rate swap agreements currently in effect, $900.2 million of the portfolio debt, or 57.7%, was fixed at a 3.91% weighted average interest rate and $660.8 million, or 42.3% was floating at a 3.16% weighted average interest rate as of June 30, 2017.

There is $211.1 million of debt maturing in 2017 at a weighted-average interest rate of 3.56%. In addition, there is $3.5 million of scheduled principal amortization due in 2017. In addition, our share of scheduled remaining 2017 principal payments and maturities on its unconsolidated debt was $6.1 million at June 30, 2017. As it relates to the maturing debt in 2017, we may not

 
49
 





have sufficient cash on hand to repay such indebtedness, and, therefore, we expect to refinance at least a portion of this indebtedness or select other alternatives based on market conditions as these loans mature; however, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain financing at acceptable terms.

Sources of Liquidity

Our primary sources of capital for funding our liquidity needs include (i) the issuance of both public equity and OP Units, (ii) the issuance of both secured and unsecured debt, (iii) unfunded capital commitments from noncontrolling interests within our Funds, (iv) future sales of existing properties and (v) cash on hand and future cash flow from operating activities. Our cash on hand in our consolidated subsidiaries at June 30, 2017 totaled $43.4 million. Our remaining sources of liquidity are described further below.

Issuance of Equity

We have an at-the-market (“ATM”) equity issuance program which provides us an efficient and low-cost vehicle for raising public equity to fund our capital needs. Through this program, we have been able to effectively “match-fund” the required equity for our Core Portfolio and Fund acquisitions through the issuance of Common Shares over extended periods employing a price averaging strategy. In addition, from time to time, we have issued and intend to continue to issue, equity in follow-on offerings separate from our ATM program. Net proceeds raised through our ATM program and follow-on offerings are primarily used for acquisitions, both for our Core Portfolio and our pro-rata share of Fund acquisitions and for general corporate purposes. There were no issuances of equity under the ATM program during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Fund Capital

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, noncontrolling interest capital contributions to Fund IV of $20.1 million were primarily used to fund recent acquisitions and development activities. At June 30, 2017, unfunded capital commitments from noncontrolling interests within our Funds III, IV and V were $40.2 million, $107.1 million and $415.5 million, respectively.

Asset Sales

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, within our Fund portfolio we sold three properties for an aggregate sales price of $53.4 million and recognized aggregate gains of $17.8 million as follows (Note 4):

Fund III sold an unconsolidated property, Arundel Plaza, with a sales price of $28.8 million and recognized a gain on disposition of properties of $8.2 million of which our proportionate share was $1.3 million;
Fund IV sold its 2819 Kennedy Boulevard property for $19.0 million and recognized a gain of $6.3 million of which our proportionate share was $1.4 million; and
Fund IV sold its 1701 Belmont Avenue property for $5.6 million and recognized a gain of $3.3 million of which our proportionate share was $0.8 million.

Structured Financing Repayments

There are no scheduled principal collections on our structured financing portfolio (Note 3) for the remainder of 2017.

Financing and Debt

As of June 30, 2017, we had $235.8 million of additional capacity under existing revolving debt facilities. In addition, at that date we had 65 unleveraged consolidated properties with an aggregate carrying value of approximately $1.4 billion and 26 unleveraged unconsolidated properties for which our share of the carrying value was $93.8 million, although there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain financing for these properties at favorable terms if at all.

Operating Activities

Our operating activities provided $17.4 million more cash during the six months ended June 30, 2017, primarily due to additional cash flow from 2016 Core and Fund acquisitions.

Investing Activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2017 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2016, our investing activities used an additional $8.9 million of cash, primarily due to (i) $124.6 million less cash received from the disposition of properties, including unconsolidated affiliates, (ii) $25.5 million less cash received from return of capital from unconsolidated affiliates, (iii) an additional $42.7 million used for the acquisition of real estate, and (iv) $12.5 million less cash received from repayments of notes receivable. These items were partially offset by (i) $126.5 million less cash used for the issuance of notes receivable, (ii) $58.8 million less cash used for investments and advances to unconsolidated investments and (iii) $9.6 million less cash used for development and property improvement costs.

Financing Activities

Our financing activities used $47.9 million less cash during the six months ended June 30, 2017, primarily from (i) $141.4 million less cash received from the issuance of Common Shares and (ii) a decrease in cash of $136.9 million from capital contributions from noncontrolling interests. These items were partially offset by (i) an increase of $171.5 million of cash provided from net borrowings and (ii) a decrease of $63.0 million in cash distributions to noncontrolling interests.

__________

(a)
A ground lease expiring during 2078 provides the Company with an option to purchase the underlying land during 2031. If we do not exercise the option, the rents that will be due are based on future values and as such are not determinable at this time. Accordingly, the above table does not include rents for this lease beyond 2031.
(b)
In conjunction with the development of our Core Portfolio and Fund properties, we have entered into construction commitments with general contractors. We intend to fund these requirements with existing liquidity.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We have the following investments made through joint ventures for the purpose of investing in operating properties. We account for these investments using the equity method of accounting. As such, our financial statements reflect our investment and our share of income and loss from, but not the individual assets and liabilities, of these joint ventures.

See Note 4 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, for a discussion of our unconsolidated investments. The Operating Partnership’s pro-rata share of unconsolidated debt related to those investments is as follows (dollars in millions):

One of our unconsolidated affiliates is a party to an interest rate LIBOR swap with a notional value of $20.8 million, which effectively fixes the interest rate at 3.49% and matures in June 2023. Our pro-rata share of the fair value of such affiliate’s derivative assets totaled $0.06 million as of June 30, 2017.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe there have been no material changes to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies under Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in our 2016 Form 10-K.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Reference is made to Note 1 for information about recently issued accounting pronouncements.


ITEM 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Information as of June 30, 2017

Our primary market risk exposure is to changes in interest rates related to our mortgage and other debt. See Note 7 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, for certain quantitative details related to our mortgage and other debt.

Currently, we manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates primarily through the use of fixed-rate debt and interest rate swap agreements. As of June 30, 2017, we had total mortgage and other notes payable of $1,561.0 million, excluding the unamortized premium of $1.0 million and unamortized loan costs of $18.2 million, of which $900.2 million, or 57.7% was fixed-rate, inclusive of debt with rates fixed through the use of derivative financial instruments, and $660.8 million, or 42.3%, was variable-rate based upon LIBOR or Prime rates plus certain spreads. As of June 30, 2017, we were party to 25 interest rate swap

and four interest rate cap agreements to hedge our exposure to changes in interest rates with respect to $430.8 million and $196.4 million of LIBOR-based variable-rate debt, respectively.

The following table sets forth information as of June 30, 2017 concerning our long-term debt obligations, including principal cash flows by scheduled maturity and weighted average interest rates of maturing amounts (dollars in millions):

During the remainder of 2017, $214.7 million of our total consolidated debt and $6.1 million of our pro-rata share of unconsolidated outstanding debt will become due. In addition, $122.8 million of our total consolidated debt and $2.2 million of our pro-rata share of unconsolidated debt will become due in 2018. As we intend on refinancing some or all of such debt at the then-existing market interest rates, which may be greater than the current interest rate, our interest expense would increase by approximately $3.4 million annually if the interest rate on the refinanced debt increased by 100 basis points. After giving effect to noncontrolling interests, our share of this increase would be $1.4 million. Interest expense on our variable-rate debt of $660.8 million, net of variable to fixed-rate swap agreements currently in effect, as of June 30, 2017, would increase $6.6 million if LIBOR increased by 100 basis points. After giving effect to noncontrolling interests, our share of this increase would be $2.1 million. We may seek additional variable-rate financing if and when pricing and other commercial and financial terms warrant. As such, we would consider hedging against the interest rate risk related to such additional variable-rate debt through interest rate swaps and protection agreements, or other means.


 
53
 





Based on our outstanding debt balances as of June 30, 2017, the fair value of our total consolidated outstanding debt would decrease by approximately $18.5 million if interest rates increase by 1%. Conversely, if interest rates decrease by 1%, the fair value of our total outstanding debt would increase by approximately $20.8 million.

As of June 30, 2017, and December 31, 2016, we had consolidated notes receivable of $249.8 million and $276.2 million, respectively. We determined the estimated fair value of our notes receivable equated the carrying values by discounting future cash receipts utilizing a discount rate equivalent to the rate at which similar notes receivable would be originated under conditions then existing.

Based on our outstanding notes receivable balances as of June 30, 2017, the fair value of our total outstanding notes receivable would decrease by approximately $3.9 million if interest rates increase by 1%. Conversely, if interest rates decrease by 1%, the fair value of our total outstanding notes receivable would increase by approximately $4.0 million.

Summarized Information as of December 31, 2016

As of December 31, 2016, we had total mortgage and other notes payable of $1,505.7 million, excluding the unamortized premium of $1.3 million and unamortized loan costs of $18.3 million, of which $860.5 million, or 57.1% was fixed-rate, inclusive of interest rate swaps, and $645.2 million, or 42.9%, was variable-rate based upon LIBOR plus certain spreads. As of December 31, 2016, we were party to 18 interest rate swap and four interest rate cap agreements to hedge our exposure to changes in interest rates with respect to $365.3 million and $196.4 million of LIBOR-based variable-rate debt, respectively.

Interest expense on our variable-rate debt of $645.2 million as of December 31, 2016, would have increased $6.5 million if LIBOR increased by 100 basis points. Based on our outstanding debt balances as of December 31, 2016, the fair value of our total outstanding debt would have decreased by approximately $20.3 million if interest rates increased by 1%. Conversely, if interest rates decreased by 1%, the fair value of our total outstanding debt would have increased by approximately $22.8 million.

Changes in Market Risk Exposures from 2016 to 2017

Our interest rate risk exposure from December 31, 2016, to June 30, 2017, has increased on an absolute basis, as the $645.2 million of variable-rate debt as of December 31, 2016, has increased to $660.8 million as of June 30, 2017. As a percentage of our overall debt, our interest rate risk exposure has decreased as our variable-rate debt accounted for 42.9% of our consolidated debt as of December 31, 2016, and was decreased to 42.3% as of June 30, 2017.

ITEM 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures Our disclosure controls and procedures include internal controls and other procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in this and other reports filed under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the required time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. It should be noted that no system of controls can provide complete assurance of achieving a company’s objectives and that future events may impact the effectiveness of a system of controls. Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, after conducting an evaluation, together with members of our management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2017, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective as of June 30, 2017, at a reasonable level of assurance.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
