EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2022 of Brixmor Property Group Inc. and Brixmor Operating Partnership LP. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to the “Parent Company” or “BPG” mean Brixmor Property Group Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, and references to the “Operating Partnership” mean Brixmor Operating Partnership LP and its consolidated subsidiaries. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “the Company,” “Brixmor,” “we,” “our,” and “us” mean the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, collectively.

The Parent Company is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that owns 100% of the limited liability company interests of BPG Subsidiary LLC (“BPG Sub”), which, in turn, is the sole member of Brixmor OP GP LLC (the “General Partner”), the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. As of March 31, 2022, the Parent Company beneficially owned, through its direct and indirect interest in BPG Sub and the General Partner, 100% of the outstanding partnership common units (the “OP Units”) in the Operating Partnership.

The Company believes combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership into this single report:

•Enhances investors’ understanding of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;

•Eliminates duplicative disclosure and provides a more streamlined and readable presentation; and

•Creates time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.

Management operates the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership as one business. Because the Operating Partnership is managed by the Parent Company, and the Parent Company conducts substantially all of its operations through the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company’s executive officers are the Operating Partnership’s executive officers, and although, as a partnership, the Operating Partnership does not have a board of directors, we refer to the Parent Company’s board of directors as the Operating Partnership’s board of directors.

We believe it is important to understand the few differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership in the context of how the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership operate as a consolidated company. The Parent Company is a REIT, whose only material asset is its indirect interest in the Operating Partnership. As a result, the Parent Company does not conduct business itself other than issuing public equity from time to time. The Parent Company does not incur any material indebtedness. The Operating Partnership holds substantially all of our assets. Except for net proceeds from public equity issuances by the Parent Company, which are contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for OP Units, the Operating Partnership generates all capital required by the Company’s business. Sources of this capital include the Operating Partnership’s operations and its direct or indirect incurrence of indebtedness.

Equity, capital, and non-controlling interests are the primary areas of difference between the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Parent Company and those of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership’s capital currently includes OP Units owned by the Parent Company through BPG Sub and the General Partner and has in the past and may in the future include OP Units owned by third parties. OP Units owned by third parties, if any, are accounted for in capital in the Operating Partnership’s financial statements and outside of equity in non-controlling interests in the Parent Company’s financial statements.

The Parent Company consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting purposes, and the Parent Company does not have material assets other than its indirect interest in the Operating Partnership. Therefore, while equity, capital, and non-controlling interests may differ as discussed above, the assets and liabilities of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership are materially the same on their respective financial statements.

In order to highlight the differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, there are sections in this report that separately discuss the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, including separate financial statements (but combined footnotes), separate controls and procedures sections, separate certification of periodic report under Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and separate certification pursuant to 18 U.S.C. Section 1350 as adopted pursuant to Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. In the sections that combine disclosure for the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, this report refers to actions or holdings as being actions or holdings of the Company.

Forward-Looking Statements

This report may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements related to our expectations regarding the performance of our business, our financial results, our liquidity and capital resources, and other non-historical statements. You can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “outlook,” “believes,” “expects,” “potential,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “projects,” “predicts,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” or the negative version of these words or other comparable words. Such forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause actual outcomes or results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements. We believe these factors include but are not limited to those described under the sections entitled “Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 and in this report, as such factors may be updated from time to time in our periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which are accessible on the SEC’s website at https://www.sec.gov. These factors include (1) changes in national, regional, and local economies, due to global events such as international military conflicts, international trade disputes, a foreign debt crisis, or foreign currency volatility, or due to domestic issues, such as government policies and regulations, tariffs, energy prices, market dynamics, rising interest rates, inflation, unemployment, or limited growth in consumer income; (2) local real estate market conditions, including an oversupply of space in, or a reduction in demand for, properties similar to those in our Portfolio; (3) competition from other available properties and e-commerce, and the attractiveness of properties in our Portfolio to our tenants; (4) disruption and/or consolidation in the retail sector, the financial stability of our tenants, and the overall financial condition of large retailing companies, including their ability to pay rent and/or expense reimbursements that are due to us; (5) in the case of percentage rents, the sales volume of our tenants; (6) increases in property operating expenses, including common area expenses, utilities, insurance, and real estate taxes, which are relatively inflexible and generally do not decrease if revenue or occupancy decrease; (7) increases in the costs to repair, renovate, and re-lease space; (8) earthquakes, wildfires, tornadoes, hurricanes, damage from rising sea levels due to climate change, other natural disasters, epidemics and/or pandemics, including the current pandemic of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”), civil unrest, terrorist acts, or acts of war, any of which may result in uninsured or underinsured losses; and (9) changes in laws and governmental regulations, including those governing usage, zoning, the environment, and taxes. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included in this report and in our other periodic filings. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report, and we expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments, or otherwise, except to the extent otherwise required by law.

BRIXMOR PROPERTY GROUP INC. AND BRIXMOR OPERATING PARTNERSHIP LP

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited, dollars in thousands, unless otherwise stated)

1. Nature of Business and Financial Statement Presentation

Description of Business

Brixmor Property Group Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Parent Company”) is an internally-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”). Brixmor Operating Partnership LP and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Operating Partnership”) is the entity through which the Parent Company conducts substantially all of its operations and owns substantially all of its assets. The Parent Company owns 100% of the limited liability company interests of BPG Subsidiary LLC (“BPG Sub”), which, in turn, is the sole member of Brixmor OP GP LLC (the “General Partner”), the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company engages in the ownership, management, leasing, acquisition, disposition, and redevelopment of retail shopping centers through the Operating Partnership, and has no other substantial assets or liabilities other than through its investment in the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company, the Operating Partnership, and their controlled subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (collectively, the “Company” or “Brixmor”) owns and operates one of the largest publicly-traded open-air retail portfolios by gross leasable area (“GLA”) in the United States (“U.S.”), comprised primarily of community and neighborhood shopping centers. As of March 31, 2022, the Company’s portfolio was comprised of 380 shopping centers (the “Portfolio”) totaling approximately 67 million square feet of GLA. The Company’s high-quality national Portfolio is primarily located within established trade areas in the top 50 Metropolitan Statistical Areas in the U.S., and its shopping centers are primarily anchored by non-discretionary and value-oriented retailers, as well as consumer-oriented service providers.

The Company does not distinguish its principal business or group its operations on a geographical basis for purposes of measuring performance. Accordingly, the Company has a single reportable segment for disclosure purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for the fair presentation of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the periods presented have been included. The operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full fiscal year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 and accompanying notes included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 7, 2022.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Parent Company, the Operating Partnership, each of their wholly owned subsidiaries, and all other entities in which they have a controlling financial interest. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

Income Taxes

Brixmor Property Group Inc. has elected to qualify as a REIT in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). To qualify as a REIT, Brixmor Property Group Inc. must meet several organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it annually distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains. Management intends to continue to satisfy these requirements and maintain Brixmor Property Group Inc.’s REIT status.

As a REIT, Brixmor Property Group Inc. generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax, provided that distributions to its stockholders equal at least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined under the Code. Brixmor Property Group Inc. conducts substantially all of its operations through the Operating Partnership, which is organized as a limited partnership and treated as a pass-through entity for U.S. federal tax purposes. Therefore, U.S.

federal income taxes do not materially impact the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company.

If Brixmor Property Group Inc. fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to U.S. federal taxes at regular corporate rates and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for the four subsequent taxable years. Even if Brixmor Property Group Inc. qualifies for taxation as a REIT, Brixmor Property Group Inc. is subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed taxable income as well as other income items, as applicable.

Brixmor Property Group Inc. has elected to treat certain of its subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries (each a “TRS”), and Brixmor Property Group Inc. may in the future elect to treat newly formed and/or other existing subsidiaries as TRSs. A TRS may participate in non-real estate related activities and/or perform non-customary services for tenants and is subject to certain limitations under the Code. A TRS is subject to U.S. federal, state, and local income taxes at regular corporate rates. Income taxes related to Brixmor Property Group Inc.’s TRSs do not materially impact the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company.

The Company has considered the tax positions taken for the open tax years and has concluded that no provision for income taxes related to uncertain tax positions is required in the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Open tax years generally range from 2018 through 2021 but may vary by jurisdiction and issue. The Company recognizes penalties and interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense, which is included in Other on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Any recently issued accounting standards or pronouncements have been excluded as they either are not relevant to the Company, or they are not expected to have a material impact on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company.

See Note 3 for additional information regarding impairment charges taken in connection with the Company’s dispositions. See Note 8 for additional information regarding the fair value of operating properties that have been impaired.

6. Financial Instruments – Derivatives and Hedging

The Company’s use of derivative instruments is intended to manage its exposure to interest rate movements and such instruments are not utilized for speculative purposes. In certain situations, the Company may enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swap and interest rate cap agreements that result in the receipt and/or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchanging the underlying notional amount. The Company utilizes interest rate swaps to partially hedge the cash flows associated with variable-rate debt. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and year ended December 31, 2021, the Company did not enter into any new interest rate swap agreements. During the year ended December 31, 2021, interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $250.0 million expired and the Company paid $1.1 million to terminate interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $250.0 million.

Detail on the Company’s interest rate derivatives designated as cash flow hedges outstanding as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 is as follows:


	Number of Instruments		Notional Amount
	March 31, 2022	December 31, 2021	March 31, 2022		December 31, 2021
Interest Rate Swaps	4	4	$	300,000	$	300,000

The Company has elected to present its interest rate derivatives on its unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets on a gross basis as interest rate swap assets and interest rate swap liabilities. Detail on the fair value of the Company’s interest rate derivatives on a gross and net basis as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 is as follows:


	Fair Value of Derivative Instruments
Interest rate swaps classified as:	March 31, 2022		December 31, 2021
Gross derivative assets	$	—	$	—
Gross derivative liabilities	(1,304)		(12,585)
Net derivative liabilities	$	(1,304)	$	(12,585)

The gross derivative assets are included in Other assets and the gross derivative liabilities are included in Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. All of the Company’s outstanding interest rate swap agreements for the periods presented were designated as

cash flow hedges of interest rate risk. The fair value of the Company’s interest rate derivatives is determined using market standard valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analyses, on the expected cash flows of each derivative. These analyses reflect the contractual terms of the derivative, including the period to maturity, and use observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. These inputs are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss) and is reclassified into earnings as interest expense in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings.

The effective portion of the Company’s interest rate swaps that was recognized on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 is as follows:


Derivatives in Cash Flow Hedging Relationships (Interest Rate Swaps)	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2022		2021
Change in unrealized gain on interest rate swaps	$	9,434	$	2,599
Amortization of interest rate swaps to interest expense	1,847		3,067
Change in unrealized gain on interest rate swaps, net	$	11,281	$	5,666

The Company estimates that $2.5 million will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss as an increase to interest expense over the next twelve months. No gain or loss was recognized related to hedge ineffectiveness or to amounts excluded from effectiveness testing on the Company’s cash flow hedges during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Non-Designated (Mark-to-Market) Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company did not have any non-designated hedges.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

The Company has agreements with its derivative counterparties that contain provisions whereby if the Company defaults on certain of its indebtedness and the indebtedness has been accelerated by the lender, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations. If the Company were to breach any of the contractual provisions of the derivative contracts, it would be required to settle its obligations under such agreements at their termination value, including accrued interest.

7. Debt Obligations

As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had the following indebtedness outstanding:

Unsecured Credit Facility and term loans	391,912		395,614		296,327		300,629
Total debt obligations, net	$	5,010,568	$	4,966,334	$	5,164,518	$	5,466,920

As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, a fair value hierarchy is included in GAAP that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs that are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).

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.

Based on the above criteria, the Company has determined that the valuations of its debt obligations are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Such fair value estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that would be realized upon disposition.

Recurring Fair Value

The Company’s marketable securities and interest rate derivatives are measured and recognized at fair value on a recurring basis. The valuations of the Company’s marketable securities are based primarily on publicly traded market values in active markets and are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the fair value hierarchy. See Note 6 for fair value information regarding the Company’s interest rate derivatives.

The following table presents the placement in the fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities that are measured and recognized at fair value on a recurring basis:


	Fair Value Measurements as of March 31, 2022
	Balance		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Assets:
Marketable securities(1)	$	19,315	$	1,208	$	18,107	$	—


Liabilities:

Liabilities:
Interest rate derivatives	$	(12,585)	$	—	$	(12,585)	$	—

(1)As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, marketable securities included $0.4 million and $0.1 million of net unrealized losses, respectively. As of March 31, 2022, the contractual maturities of the Company’s marketable securities are within the next five years.

Non-Recurring Fair Value

Management periodically assesses whether there are any indicators, including property operating performance, changes in anticipated hold period, and general market conditions that the carrying value of the Company’s real estate assets (including any related intangible assets or liabilities) may be impaired. Fair value is determined by offers from third-party buyers, market comparable data, third party appraisals, or discounted cash flow analyses. The cash flows utilized in such analyses are comprised of unobservable inputs that include forecasted rental revenue and expenses based upon market conditions and future expectations. The capitalization rates and discount rates utilized in such analyses are based upon unobservable rates that the Company believes to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for the respective properties. Based on these inputs, the Company has determined that the valuations of these properties are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The following table presents the placement in the fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities that are measured and recognized at fair value on a non-recurring basis. The table includes information related to properties that were remeasured to fair value as a result of impairment testing during the three months ended March 31, 2022, excluding the properties sold prior to March 31, 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2021, no properties were remeasured to fair value as a result of impairment testing that were not sold prior to December 31, 2021.

(2)The carrying value of the property remeasured to fair value based upon offers from third-party buyers during the three months ended March 31, 2022 is $8.7 million related to Torrington Plaza.

9. Revenue Recognition

The Company engages in the ownership, management, leasing, acquisition, disposition, and redevelopment of retail shopping centers. Revenue is primarily generated through lease agreements and classified as Rental income on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. These agreements include retail shopping center unit leases; ground leases; ancillary leases or agreements, such as agreements with tenants for cellular towers, ATMs, and short-term or seasonal retail (e.g. Halloween or Christmas-related retail); and reciprocal easement agreements. The agreements range in term from less than one year to 25 or more years, with certain agreements containing renewal options. These renewal options range from as little as one month to five or more years. The Company’s retail shopping center leases generally require tenants to pay a portion of property operating expenses such as common area expenses, utilities, insurance, and real estate taxes, and certain capital expenditures related to the maintenance of the Company’s properties.

Additionally, certain leases may require variable lease payments associated with percentage rents, which are recognized upon the achievement of certain predetermined sales thresholds. The Company recognized $3.4 million and $2.3 million of income based on percentage rents for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. These amounts are included in Rental income on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

10. Leases

The Company periodically enters into agreements in which it is the lessee, including ground leases for shopping centers that it operates and office leases for administrative space. The agreements range in term from less than one year to 50 or more years, with certain agreements containing renewal options for up to an additional 100 years. Upon lease execution, the Company recognizes an operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and an operating lease liability based on the present value of the minimum lease payments over the non-cancelable lease term. As of March 31, 2022, the Company is not including any prospective renewal or termination options in its ROU assets or lease liabilities, as the exercise of such options is not reasonably certain. Certain agreements require the Company to pay a portion of property operating expenses, including common area expenses, utilities, insurance, and real estate taxes, and certain capital expenditures related to the maintenance of the properties. These payments are not included in the calculation of the lease liability and are presented as variable lease costs. The following tables present additional information pertaining to the Company’s operating leases:

11. Equity and Capital

ATM Program

In January 2020, the Company established an at-the-market equity offering program (the “ATM Program”) through which the Company may sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate of $400.0 million of its common stock through sales agents. The ATM Program also provides that the Company may enter into forward contracts for shares of its common stock with forward sellers and forward purchasers. The ATM Program is scheduled to expire on January 9, 2023, unless earlier terminated or extended by the Company, sales agents, forward sellers, and forward purchasers.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company issued 1.7 million shares of common stock under the ATM Program at an average price per share of $25.49 for total gross proceeds of $44.4 million, excluding commissions. The Company incurred commissions of $0.6 million in conjunction with the ATM Program for the three months ended March 31, 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company did not issue any shares of common stock. As of March 31, 2022, $350.4 million of common stock remained available for issuance under the ATM Program.

Share Repurchase Program

In January 2020, the Company established a share repurchase program (the “Program”) for up to $400.0 million of its common stock. The Program is scheduled to expire on January 9, 2023, unless suspended or extended by the board of directors. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not repurchase any shares of common stock. As of March 31, 2022, the Program had $375.0 million of available repurchase capacity.

Common Stock

In connection with the vesting of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the Company’s equity-based compensation plan, the Company withholds shares to satisfy tax withholding obligations. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company withheld 0.4 million and 0.3 million shares of its common stock, respectively.

Dividends and Distributions

During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the board of directors declared common stock dividends and OP Unit distributions of $0.240 per share/unit and $0.215 per share/unit, respectively. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had declared but unpaid common stock dividends and OP Unit distributions of $74.5 million and $74.4 million, respectively. These amounts are included in Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

12. Stock Based Compensation

During the year ended December 31, 2013, the board of directors approved the 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provides for a maximum of 15.0 million shares of the Company’s common stock to be issued for qualified and non-qualified options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, RSUs, OP Units, performance awards, and other stock-based awards.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company granted RSUs to certain employees. The RSUs are divided into multiple tranches, which are all subject to service-based vesting conditions. Certain tranches are also subject to performance-based or market-based criteria, which contain a threshold, target, above target, and maximum number of units that can be earned. The number of units actually earned for each tranche is determined based on performance during a specified performance period. Tranches that only have a service-based component can only earn a target number of units. The aggregate number of RSUs granted, assuming that the target level of performance is achieved, was 0.7 million and 1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and the year ended December 31, 2021, respectively, with vesting periods ranging from one to five years. For the performance-based and service-based RSUs granted, fair value is based on the Company’s grant date stock price. For the market-based RSUs granted, fair value is based on a Monte Carlo simulation model that assesses the probability of satisfying the market performance hurdles over the remainder of the performance period based on the Company’s historical common stock performance relative to the other companies within the FTSE Nareit Equity Shopping Centers Index as well as the following significant assumptions:


Assumption	Three Months Ended March 31, 2022	Year Ended, December 31, 2021
Volatility	27.0% - 51.0%	50.0% - 64.0%
Weighted average risk-free interest rate	1.08% - 1.39%	0.11% - 0.18%
Weighted average common stock dividend yield	3.8% - 4.6%	4.1% - 5.8%

During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized $4.6 million and $2.8 million of equity compensation expense, respectively, of which $0.3 million and $0.2 million was capitalized, respectively. These amounts are included in General and administrative expense on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had $34.9 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock compensation, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.5 years.

13. Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income attributable to the Company’s common stockholders, including any participating securities, by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period. Certain restricted shares issued pursuant to the Company’s share-based compensation program are considered participating securities, as such stockholders have rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends. Fully-diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into shares of common stock. Unvested RSUs are not allocated net losses and/or any excess of dividends declared over net income, as such amounts are allocated entirely to the Company’s common stock.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the EPS calculations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 (dollars in thousands, except per share data):


	Three Months Ended March 31,

Diluted earnings per share attributable to the Company’s common stockholders:

14. Earnings per Unit

Basic earnings per unit is calculated by dividing net income attributable to the Operating Partnership’s common unitholders, including any participating securities, by the weighted average number of partnership common units outstanding for the period. Certain restricted units issued pursuant to the Company’s share-based compensation program are considered participating securities, as such unitholders have rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends. Fully-diluted earnings per unit reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common units were exercised or converted into common units. Unvested RSUs are not allocated net losses and/or any excess of dividends declared over net income, as such amounts are allocated entirely to the Operating Partnership’s common units.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the earnings per unit calculations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 (dollars in thousands, except per unit data):


	Three Months Ended March 31,

15. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Matters

The Company is not presently involved in any material litigation arising outside the ordinary course of business. However, the Company is involved in routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business, none of which the Company believes, individually or in the aggregate, taking into account existing reserves, will have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, operating results, or cash flows.

Environmental Matters

Under various federal, state, and local laws, ordinances, and regulations, the Company may be or become liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances released on or in the Company’s property or disposed of by the Company or its tenants, as well as certain other potential costs that could relate to hazardous or toxic substances (including governmental fines and injuries to persons and property). The Company does not believe that any resulting liability from such matters will have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, operating results, or cash flows. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not incur any material governmental fines resulting from environmental matters.

16. Related-Party Transactions

In the ordinary course of conducting its business, the Company enters into agreements with its affiliates in relation to the leasing and management of its real estate assets.

As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no material receivables from or payables to related parties. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not engage in any material related-party transactions.

17. Subsequent Events

In preparing the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company has evaluated events and transactions occurring after March 31, 2022 for recognition and/or disclosure purposes. Based on this evaluation, there were no subsequent events from March 31, 2022 through the date the financial statements were issued other than the following:

•On April 28, 2022, the Operating Partnership amended and restated its Unsecured Credit Facility and $300 Million Term Loan. The amendments provide for (i) revolving loan commitments of $1.25 billion (the “Revolving Facility”) scheduled to mature on June 30, 2026 (extending the applicable scheduled maturity date from February 28, 2023); and (ii) a continuation of the existing $300 Million Term Loan scheduled to mature on July 26, 2027 (extending the applicable scheduled maturity date from July 26, 2024) and a new $200.0 million delayed draw term loan, maturing on July 26, 2027 (together, the “Term Loan Facility”). The Revolving Facility includes two six-month maturity extension options, the exercise of which is subject to customary conditions and the payment of a fee on the extended commitments. In addition, the floating reference rate under the Revolving Facility and Term Loan Facility has been amended from LIBOR to SOFR. As of the date the financial statements were issued, the Operating Partnership has not drawn any amounts under its delayed draw term loan. As a result of the amendment, the total capacity under the Operating Partnership’s unsecured credit facilities increased from $1.55 billion to $1.75 billion.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes thereto. Historical results and percentage relationships set forth in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes, including trends which might appear, should not be taken as indicative of future operations.

Executive Summary

Our Company

Brixmor Property Group Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively, “BPG”) is an internally-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”). Brixmor Operating Partnership LP and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Operating Partnership”) is the entity through which BPG conducts substantially all of its operations and owns substantially all of its assets. BPG owns 100% of the limited liability company interests of BPG Subsidiary LLC (“BPG Sub”), which, in turn, is the sole member of Brixmor OP GP LLC (the “General Partner”), the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, “we,” “our,” and “us” mean BPG and the Operating Partnership, collectively. We own and operate one of the largest publicly-traded open-air retail portfolios by gross leasable area (“GLA”) in the United States (“U.S.”), comprised primarily of community and neighborhood shopping centers. As of March 31, 2022, our portfolio was comprised of 380 shopping centers (the “Portfolio”) totaling approximately 67 million square feet of GLA. Our high-quality national Portfolio is primarily located within established trade areas in the top 50 Metropolitan Statistical Areas in the U.S., and our shopping centers are primarily anchored by non-discretionary and value-oriented retailers, as well as consumer-oriented service providers. As of March 31, 2022, our three largest tenants by annualized base rent (“ABR”) were The TJX Companies, Inc. (“TJX”), The Kroger Co. (“Kroger”), and Burlington Stores, Inc. (“Burlington”). BPG has been organized and operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the U.S. federal income tax laws, commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2011, has maintained such requirements through our taxable year ended December 31, 2021, and intends to satisfy such requirements for subsequent taxable years.

Our primary objective is to maximize total returns to our stockholders through consistent, sustainable growth in cash flow. Our key strategies to achieve this objective include proactively managing our Portfolio to drive internal growth, pursuing value-enhancing reinvestment opportunities, and prudently executing on acquisition and disposition activity, while also maintaining a flexible capital structure positioned for growth. In addition, as we execute on our key strategies, we do so guided by a commitment to operate in a socially responsible manner that allows us to realize our purpose of owning and managing properties that are the centers of the communities we serve.

We believe the following set of competitive advantages positions us to successfully execute on our key strategies:

•Expansive Retailer Relationships – We believe that the scale of our asset base and our nationwide footprint represent competitive advantages in supporting the growth objectives of the nation’s largest and most successful retailers. We believe that we are one of the largest landlords by GLA to TJX, Kroger, and Burlington, as well as a key landlord to most major grocers and retail category leaders. We believe that our strong relationships with leading retailers afford us unique insight into their strategies and priority access to their expansion plans.

•Fully-Integrated Operating Platform – We manage a fully-integrated operating platform, leveraging our national scope and demonstrating our commitment to operating with a strong regional and local presence. We provide our tenants with dedicated service through both our national accounts leasing team based in New York and our network of four regional offices in Atlanta, Chicago, Philadelphia, and San Diego, as well as our 13 leasing and property management satellite offices throughout the country. We believe that this structure enables us to obtain critical national market intelligence, while also benefitting from the regional and local expertise of our leasing and operations teams.

•Experienced Management – Senior members of our management team are seasoned real estate operators with extensive public company leadership experience. Our management team has deep industry knowledge and well-established relationships with retailers, brokers, and vendors through many years of operational

and transactional experience, as well as significant capital markets capabilities and expertise in executing value-enhancing reinvestment opportunities.

Factors That May Influence Our Future Results

We derive our rental income primarily from base rent and expense reimbursements paid by tenants to us under existing leases at each of our properties. Expense reimbursements primarily consist of payments made by tenants to us for a portion of property operating expenses, including common area expenses, utilities, insurance, and real estate taxes, and certain capital expenditures related to the maintenance of our properties.

Our ability to maintain or increase rental income is primarily dependent on our ability to maintain or increase rental rates, renew expiring leases, and/or lease available space. Increases in our property operating expenses, including repairs and maintenance, landscaping, snow removal, security, ground rent related to properties for which we are the lessee, utilities, insurance, real estate taxes, and various other costs, to the extent they are not reimbursed by tenants or offset by increases in rental income, will adversely impact our overall performance.

See “Forward-Looking Statements ” included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the factors that could affect our rental income and/or property operating expenses.

Leasing Highlights

As of March 31, 2022, billed and leased occupancy were 88.6% and 92.1%, respectively, as compared to 87.8% and 90.8%, respectively, as of March 31, 2021.

The increase in rental income for the three months ended March 31, 2022 of $21.9 million, as compared to the corresponding period in 2021, was due to a $20.3 million increase for assets owned for the full period and a $1.6 million increase due to acquisition and disposition activity. The increase for assets owned for the full period was due to (i) a $7.5 million increase in base rent; (ii) a $6.3 million decrease in revenues deemed uncollectible; (iii) a $2.3 million increase in straight-line rental income, net; (iv) a $1.3 million increase in expense reimbursements; (v) a $1.2 million increase in percentage rents; (vi) a $1.1 million increase in ancillary and other rental income; and (vii) a $0.7 million increase in accretion of below-market leases, net of amortization of above-market leases and tenant inducements; partially offset by (v) a $0.1 million decrease in lease termination fees. The $7.5 million increase in base rent for assets owned for the full period was primarily due to contractual rent increases and positive rent spreads for new and renewal leases and option exercises of 13.1% during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 10.1% during the year ended December 31, 2021, an increase in weighted average billed occupancy, and a decrease in rent deferrals accounted for as lease modifications and rent abatements related to the current pandemic of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”). The decrease in revenues deemed uncollectible was primarily attributable to the impact of COVID-19 reserves in 2021 and recoveries of previously reserved amounts in 2022. The increase in straight-line rental income, net was primarily attributable to the impact of COVID-19 reserves in 2021.

Other revenues

The decrease in other revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2022 of $3.0 million, as compared to the corresponding period in 2021, was primarily due to a decrease in tax increment financing income.

Operating costs

The increase in operating costs for the three months ended March 31, 2022 of $3.4 million, as compared to the corresponding period in 2021, was due to a $3.3 million increase for assets owned for the full period primarily due to an increase in repair and maintenance, utility, and insurance costs, in addition to a $0.1 million increase in operating costs due to acquisition and disposition activity.

Real estate taxes

The decrease in real estate taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2022 of $1.2 million, as compared to the corresponding period in 2021, was due to a $1.5 million decrease for assets owned for the full period, primarily due to an increase in favorable adjustments related to prior year assessments and an increase in capitalized real estate taxes, partially offset by a $0.3 million increase in real estate taxes due to acquisition and disposition activity.

Depreciation and amortization

The increase in depreciation and amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2022 of $0.8 million, as compared to the corresponding period in 2021, was due to a $2.5 million increase due to acquisition and disposition activity, partially offset by a $1.7 million decrease for assets owned for the full period, primarily related to a decrease in accelerated depreciation and amortization related to tenant move-outs.

Impairment of real estate assets

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, aggregate impairment of $4.6 million was recognized on one shopping center, as a result of disposition activity, and one operating property. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, aggregate impairment of $1.5 million was recognized on one shopping center, as a result of disposition activity. Impairments recognized were due to changes in anticipated hold periods primarily in connection with our capital recycling program.

General and administrative

The increase in general and administrative costs for the three months ended March 31, 2022 of $3.4 million, as compared to the corresponding period in 2021, was primarily due to an increase in net compensation costs, partially offset by a decrease in litigation and other non-routine legal expenses.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, construction compensation costs of $4.2 million and $3.8 million, respectively, were capitalized to building and improvements and leasing legal costs of $1.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively and leasing commission costs of $1.9 million and $1.1 million, respectively, were capitalized to deferred charges and prepaid expenses, net.

Dividends and interest

Dividends and interest remained generally consistent for the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the corresponding period in 2021.

Interest expense

The decrease in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 of $1.7 million, as compared to the corresponding period in 2021, was primarily due to a lower weighted average interest rate and lower overall debt obligations.

Gain on sale of real estate assets

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, four shopping centers and one partial shopping center were disposed of resulting in aggregate gain of $21.8 million. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2022, we resolved contingencies related to previously disposed assets resulting in net gain of $0.1 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, three shopping centers and four partial shopping center were disposed of resulting in aggregate gain of $5.8 million.

Loss on extinguishment of debt, net

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we repaid $350.0 million of an unsecured term loan under our senior unsecured credit facility agreement, as amended April 29, 2020 (the “Unsecured Credit Facility”), resulting in a $1.2 million loss on extinguishment of debt due to the acceleration of unamortized debt issuance costs.

Other

The increase in other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 of $1.3 million, as compared to the corresponding period in 2021, was primarily due to favorable tax adjustments and legal settlements in the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We anticipate that our cash flows from the sources listed below will provide adequate capital for the next 12 months and beyond for all anticipated uses, including all scheduled payments on our outstanding debt, current and anticipated tenant and other capital improvements, stockholder distributions to maintain our qualification as a REIT, and other obligations associated with conducting our business.

Our primary expected sources and uses of capital are as follows:

Sources

•cash and cash equivalent balances;

•operating cash flow;

•available borrowings under the Unsecured Credit Facility;

•dispositions;

•issuance of long-term debt; and

•issuance of equity securities.

Uses

•debt repayments;

•maintenance capital expenditures;

•leasing capital expenditures;

•dividend/distribution payments;

•value-enhancing reinvestment capital expenditures;

•acquisitions; and

•repurchases of equity securities.

We believe our capital structure provides us with the financial flexibility and capacity to fund our current capital needs as well as future growth opportunities. We have access to multiple forms of capital, including secured property level debt, unsecured corporate level debt, preferred equity, and common equity, which will allow us to efficiently execute on our strategic and operational objectives. We have investment grade credit ratings from all three major credit rating agencies. As of March 31, 2022, we had $1.2 billion of available liquidity under our $1.25 billion revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) and $40.4 million in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. We intend to continue to enhance our financial and operational flexibility through the additional extension of the duration of our debt.

Material Cash Requirements

Our expected material cash requirements for the twelve months ended March 31, 2023 and thereafter are comprised of (i) contractually obligated expenditures; (ii) other essential expenditures; and (iii) opportunistic expenditures.

Contractually Obligated Expenditures

The following table summarizes our debt maturities (excluding extension options), interest payment obligations (excluding debt premiums and discounts and deferred financing costs), and obligations under non-cancelable operating leases (excluding renewal options), as of March 31, 2022 (dollars in millions):


Contractually Obligated Expenditures	Twelve Months Ended March 31, 2023		Thereafter
Debt maturities (1)	$	95.0	$	4,918.5
Interest payments (1)(2)	182.9		846.2
Operating leases	5.8		39.9
Total	$	283.7	$	5,804.6

(1) Amounts presented do not assume the issuance of new debt upon maturity of existing debt.

(2) Scheduled interest payments included in these amounts for variable rate loans are presented using rates (including the impact of interest rate swaps), as of March 31, 2022. Amounts presented exclude debt premiums and discounts and deferred financing costs. See Item 7A. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 for a further discussion of these and other factors that could impact interest payments.

Other Essential Expenditures

We incur certain other essential expenditures in the ordinary course of business, such as common area expenses, utilities, insurance, real estate taxes, capital expenditures related to the maintenance of our properties, leasing capital expenditures, and corporate level expenses. The amount of common area expenses, utilities, and capital expenditures related to the maintenance of our properties that we incur depends on changes in the scope of services that we provide, changes in prevailing market rates, and changes in the size and composition of our Portfolio. Additionally, we carry comprehensive insurance to protect our Portfolio against various losses. The amount of insurance expense that we incur depends on the assessed value of our Portfolio, prevailing market rates, changes in risk, and the size and composition of our Portfolio. Furthermore, we incur real estate taxes in the various jurisdictions in which we operate. The amount of real estate taxes that we incur depends on changes in assessed values, changes in tax rates assessed by various jurisdictions, and changes in the size and composition of our Portfolio. Leasing capital expenditures represent tenant specific costs incurred to lease space, including tenant improvements, tenant allowances, and external leasing commissions. The amount of leasing capital expenditures that we incur depends on the volume and nature of leasing activity. Leases typically provide for the reimbursement of property operating

expenses such as common area expenses, utilities, insurance, and real estate taxes, and certain capital expenditures related to the maintenance of our properties. However, these costs generally do not decrease if a property is not fully occupied, and certain costs are non-reimbursable.

In order to continue to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we must meet several organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we annually distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains. We intend to continue to satisfy this requirement and maintain our REIT status. Our board of directors will evaluate the dividend on a quarterly basis, taking into account a variety of relevant factors, including REIT taxable income. The following table summarizes our dividend activity for the first quarter of 2022 and the second quarter of 2022:


	First Quarter 2022		Second Quarter 2022
Dividend declared per common share	$	0.240	$	0.240
Dividend declaration date	February 1, 2022		April 27, 2022
Dividend record date	April 5, 2022		July 5, 2022
Dividend payable date	April 18, 2022		July 15, 2022

Opportunistic Expenditures

We also intend to continue to utilize cash for opportunistic expenditures such as value-enhancing reinvestment and acquisition activity.

•The amount of value-enhancing reinvestment capital expenditures that we may incur in future periods is contingent on a variety of factors that may change from period to period, such as the number, total expected cost, and nature of value-enhancing reinvestment projects that we execute. See “Improvements to and investments in real estate assets” below for further information regarding our in-process reinvestment projects and pipeline of future redevelopment projects.

•The amount of future acquisition and disposition activity depends on the availability of opportunities that further concentrate our Portfolio in attractive retail submarkets and optimize the quality and long-term growth rate of our asset base. Our acquisition strategy focuses on buying assets with strong growth potential that are located in our existing markets and will allow us to leverage our operational platform and expertise to create value. Our acquisition activity may include acquisitions of open-air shopping centers, non-owned anchor spaces, and retail buildings and/or outparcels at, or adjacent to, our shopping centers. We may also dispose of properties when we believe value has been maximized, where there is downside risk, or where we have limited ability or desire to build critical mass in a particular submarket.

Our cash flow activities are summarized as follows (dollars in thousands):

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash for BPG and the Operating Partnership were $40.4 million and $33.9 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2022. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash for BPG and the Operating Partnership were $372.7 million and $362.7 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2021.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities primarily consists of cash inflows from tenant rental payments and expense reimbursements and cash outflows for property operating expenses, general and administrative expenses, and interest expense.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, our net cash provided by operating activities increased $1.7 million as compared to the corresponding period in 2021. The increase was primarily due to (i) an increase in same property net operating income; and (ii) a decrease in cash outflows for interest expense; partially offset by (iii) a decrease from net working capital; (iv) an increase in cash outflows for general and administrative expense; (v) a decrease in net operating income due to acquisition and disposition activity; and (vi) a decrease in lease termination fees.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities is impacted by the nature, timing, and magnitude of acquisition and disposition activity and improvements to and investments in our shopping centers, including capital expenditures associated with our value-enhancing reinvestment efforts.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, our net cash used in investing activities increased $140.8 million as compared to the corresponding period in 2021. The increase was primarily due to (i) an increase of $160.5 million in acquisitions of real estate assets; (ii) an increase of $7.3 million in improvements to and investments in real estate assets; and (iii) an increase of $0.1 million in purchases of marketable securities, net of proceeds from sales; partially offset by (iv) an increase of $27.1 million in net proceeds from sales of real estate assets.

Improvements to and investments in real estate assets

During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, we expended $70.1 million and $62.8 million, respectively, on improvements to and investments in real estate assets. Included in these amounts are insurance proceeds of $2.0 million and $2.2 million, respectively, which were received during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Maintenance capital expenditures represent costs to fund major replacements and betterments to our properties. Leasing related capital expenditures represent tenant specific costs incurred to lease space, including tenant improvements, tenant allowances, and external leasing commissions. In addition, we evaluate our Portfolio on an ongoing basis to identify value-enhancing reinvestment opportunities. Such initiatives are tenant driven and focus on upgrading our centers with strong, best-in-class retailers and enhancing the overall merchandise mix and tenant quality of our Portfolio. As of March 31, 2022, we had 54 in-process anchor space repositioning, redevelopment, and outparcel development projects with an aggregate anticipated cost of $418.9 million, of which $217.0 million had been incurred as of March 31, 2022. In addition, we have identified a pipeline of future redevelopment projects aggregating approximately $900.0 million of potential capital investment, which we expect to execute over the next several years. We expect to fund these projects with cash and cash equivalents, net cash provided by operating activities, proceeds from sales of real estate assets, and/or available liquidity under the Revolving Facility.

Acquisitions of and proceeds from sales of real estate assets

We continue to evaluate the market for acquisition opportunities and we may acquire shopping centers when we believe strategic opportunities exist, particularly where we can further concentrate our Portfolio in attractive retail submarkets and optimize the quality and long-term growth rate of our asset base. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we acquired three shopping centers and one land parcel and paid less than $0.1 million related to previously disposed assets for an aggregate purchase price of $158.2 million, including transaction costs and closing credits. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2022, we funded $6.1 million of deposits on assets that are under contract to be acquired. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we acquired one outparcel and two land parcels for an aggregate purchase price of $3.8 million, including transaction costs.

We may also dispose of properties when we believe value has been maximized, where there is downside risk, or where we have limited ability or desire to build critical mass in a particular submarket. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we disposed of five shopping centers and one partial shopping center for aggregate net proceeds of $58.9 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we disposed of four shopping centers and four partial shopping centers for aggregate net proceeds of $31.8 million.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities is impacted by the nature, timing, and magnitude of issuances and repurchases of debt and equity securities, as well as principal payments associated with our outstanding indebtedness and distributions made to our common stockholders.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, our net cash used in financing activities increased $120.9 million as compared to the corresponding period in 2021. The increase was primarily due to (i) a $154.4 million increase in debt repayments, net of borrowings; (ii) an $8.1 million increase in distributions to our common stockholders; and (iii) a $5.4 million increase in repurchases of common shares in conjunction with equity award plans; partially offset by (iv) a $43.9 million increase in issuances of common stock; and (v) a $3.1 million decrease in deferred financing and debt extinguishment costs.

Non-GAAP Performance Measures

We present the non-GAAP performance measures set forth below. These measures should not be considered as alternatives to, or more meaningful than, net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP) or other GAAP financial measures, as an indicator of financial performance and are not alternatives to, or more meaningful than, cash flow from operating activities (calculated in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of liquidity. Non-GAAP performance measures have limitations as they do not include all items of income and expense that affect operations, and accordingly, should always be considered as supplemental financial results to those calculated in accordance with GAAP. Our computation of these non-GAAP performance measures may differ in certain respects from the methodology utilized by other REITs and, therefore, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by such other REITs. Investors are cautioned that items excluded from these non-GAAP performance measures are relevant to understanding and addressing financial performance.

Funds From Operations

Nareit FFO (defined hereafter) is a supplemental, non-GAAP performance measure utilized to evaluate the operating and financial performance of real estate companies. Nareit defines funds from operations (“FFO”) as net income (loss), calculated in accordance with GAAP, excluding (i) depreciation and amortization related to real estate, (ii) gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, (iii) gains and losses from change in control, (iv) 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 and (v) after adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.

Considering the nature of our business as a real estate owner and operator, we believe that Nareit FFO is useful to investors in measuring our operating and financial performance because the definition excludes items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of our operating and financial performance, such as depreciation and amortization related to real estate, and items which can make periodic and peer analyses of operating and financial performance more difficult, such as gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets and impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets.

Our reconciliation of net income to Nareit FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 is as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2022		2021
Net income	$	79,506	$	52,371
Depreciation and amortization related to real estate	83,190		82,455
Gain on sale of real estate assets	(21,911)		(5,764)
Impairment of real estate assets	4,590		1,467
Nareit FFO	$	145,375	$	130,529
Nareit FFO per diluted share	$	0.49	$	0.44
Weighted average diluted shares outstanding	299,457		297,846

Same Property Net Operating Income

Same property net operating income (“NOI”) is a supplemental, non-GAAP performance measure utilized to evaluate the operating performance of real estate companies. Same property NOI is calculated (using properties owned for the entirety of both periods and excluding properties under development and completed new development properties that have been stabilized for less than one year) as total property revenues (base rent, expense reimbursements, adjustments for revenues deemed uncollectible, ancillary and other rental income, percentage rents, and other revenues) less direct property operating expenses (operating costs and real estate taxes). Same property NOI excludes (i) corporate level expenses (including general and administrative), (ii) lease termination fees, (iii) straight-line rental income, net, (iv) accretion of below-market leases, net of amortization of above-market leases and tenant inducements, (v) straight-line ground rent expense, and (vi) income (expense) associated with our captive insurance company.

Considering the nature of our business as a real estate owner and operator, we believe that same property NOI is useful to investors in measuring the operating performance of our property portfolio because the definition excludes various items included in net income that do not relate to, or are not indicative of, the operating performance of our properties, such as depreciation and amortization, corporate level expenses (including general and administrative), lease termination fees, straight-line rental income, net, accretion of below-market leases, net of amortization of above-market leases and tenant inducements, and straight-line ground rent expense. We believe that same property NOI is also useful to investors because it further eliminates disparities in NOI due to the acquisition or disposition of properties or the stabilization of completed new development properties during the periods presented and therefore provides a more consistent metric for comparing the operating performance of our real estate between periods.

Inflation

Prior to 2021, inflation was low and had a minimal impact on our operating and financial performance; however, inflation has significantly increased in 2021 and 2022 and may continue to be elevated or increase further. With respect to our shopping centers, most of our long-term leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation, including contractual rent escalations and requirements for tenants to pay a portion of property operating expenses, including common area expenses, utilities, insurance, and real estate taxes, and certain capital expenditures related to the maintenance of our properties, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in property operating expenses resulting from inflation; however, we have exposure to increases in non-reimbursable property operating expenses, including expenses incurred on vacant units. In addition, we believe that many of our existing rental rates are below current market rates for comparable space and that upon renewal or re-leasing, such rates may be increased to be consistent with, or closer to, current market rates, which may also offset certain inflationary expense pressures. With respect to our outstanding indebtedness, we periodically evaluate our exposure to interest rate fluctuations, and have and may continue to enter into interest rate protection agreements that mitigate, but do not eliminate, the impact of changes in interest rates on our variable rate loans. With respect to general and administrative costs, we continually seek opportunities to offset inflationary cost pressures through routine evaluations of our spending levels and through ongoing efforts to utilize technology to enhance the efficiency of our people and processes.
