Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

1. Organization, Properties, Basis of Presentation, Financial Instruments and Recent Accounting Standards

Organization

Franklin Street Properties Corp. (“FSP Corp.” or the “Company”) holds, directly and indirectly, 100% of the interest in FSP Investments LLC, FSP Property Management LLC, FSP Holdings LLC and FSP Protective TRS Corp. FSP Property Management LLC provides asset management and property management services. The Company also has a non-controlling common stock interest in two corporations organized to operate as real estate investment trusts (“REIT”). Collectively, the two REITs are referred to as the “Sponsored REITs”.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company owned and operated a portfolio of real estate consisting of 32 operating properties, three redevelopment properties and two managed Sponsored REITs and held two promissory notes secured by mortgages on real estate owned by Sponsored REITs, including one mortgage loan and one revolving line of credit. From time-to-time, the Company may acquire real estate or make additional secured loans. The Company may also pursue, on a selective basis, the sale of its properties in order to take advantage of the value creation and demand for its properties, or for geographic or property specific reasons.

Properties

The following table summarizes the Company’s number of operating properties and rentable square feet of real estate. As of June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, the Company had three redevelopment properties and one redevelopment property, respectively, which are excluded from the table.


	As of June 30,
	2019	2018
Operating Properties:
Number of properties	32	34
Rentable square feet	9,498,858	9,760,699

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company include all of the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The accompanying interim financial statements are unaudited; however, the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring matters) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements for these interim periods have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019 or for any other period.

Financial Instruments

As disclosed in Note 4, the Company’s derivatives are recorded at fair value using Level 2 inputs. The Company estimates that the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses, accrued compensation, and tenant security deposits approximate their fair values based on their short-term

Table of Contents

maturity and the bank note and term loans payable approximate their fair values as they bear interest at variable interest rates or at rates that are at market for similar investments.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the consolidated statement of cash flows.


	June 30,		June 30,

Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	13,100	$	10,448

Recent Accounting Standards

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (“ASU 2016-02”); in July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases and ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements (“ASU 2018-11”); and in December 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-20 Leases (Topic 842), Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to establish a lease liability for the obligation to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset for the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term on their balance sheets. Lessees will continue to recognize lease expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to current accounting. The guidance also eliminates current real estate-specific provisions for all entities. For lessors, the guidance modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases. This new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods thereafter with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted these standards on January 1, 2019 and applied the package of practical expedients that allows an entity to not reassess (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (iii) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases. Additionally, the Company’s leases met the criteria in ASU 2018-11 to not separate non-lease components from the related lease component, therefore the accounting for these leases remained largely unchanged from the previous standard. The Company applied the optional transition method in ASU 2018-11, which allows entities to initially apply the new lease standard at the adoption date. The Company recorded a right-to-use asset of $2.1 million and a lease liability of $2.2 million upon adoption of this standard. The presentation and disclosure that is required to be presented under the new lease standard is provided in Note 8.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which requires that entities use a new forward looking “expected loss” model that generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowance for credit losses. The measurement of expected credit losses is based upon historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company’s receivables associated with its real estate operating leases are not within the scope of this standard. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact that the adoption of ASU 2016-13 may have on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (“ASU 2017-12”), which amends and simplifies existing guidance in order to allow companies to more accurately present the economic effects of risk management activities in the financial statements. The amendment also eases the application of hedge accounting in certain situations, including eliminating the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness for cash flow hedges. ASU 2017-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and earlier adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this new standard in the first quarter of 2019 using the modified retrospective method, which requires the Company to account for ASU 2017-12 as of the date of adoption with any retrospective adjustments applicable to prior periods included as a cumulative-effect adjustment to accumulate other comprehensive loss and retained earnings. No adjustment was necessary to account for the cumulative effect of the change on the opening balance of each affected component of equity in the consolidated balance sheet as of the date of adoption because there was no cumulative ineffectiveness that had been recorded on the Company’s existing interest

Table of Contents

rate swaps as of December 31, 2018, and all trades were highly effective. The amended presentation and disclosure guidance which is required to be presented prospectively under this new standard is provided in Note 4.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”). The ASU is intended to improve the effectiveness of fair value measurement disclosures. ASU 2018-13 is effective for all entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. This ASU amends existing fair value measurement disclosure requirements by adding, changing, or removing certain disclosures. ASU 2018-13 will be effective for the Company as of January 1, 2020, and earlier adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact that the adoption of ASU 2018-13 may have on its consolidated financial statements.

2. Related Party Transactions and Investments in Non-Consolidated Entities

Investment in Sponsored REITs:

At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company held a common stock interest in two and three Sponsored REITs, respectively. The Company previously held a non-controlling preferred stock investment in two Sponsored REITs, FSP 303 East Wacker Drive Corp. (“East Wacker”) and FSP Grand Boulevard Corp. (“Grand Boulevard”), which were liquidated during the three months ended September 30, 2018.

In December 2007, the Company purchased 965.75 preferred shares or 43.7% of the outstanding preferred shares of one of its Sponsored REITs, East Wacker. On September 24, 2018, the property owned by East Wacker was sold and, thereafter, East Wacker declared and issued a liquidating distribution for its preferred shareholders, from which the Company was entitled to $70 million. On September 27, 2018, the Company received $69 million in an initial cash distribution, and on April 3, 2019, the Company received a $1 million distribution. As a result of the sale, the Company recognized a gain on liquidation of $7.1 million.

In May 2009, the Company purchased 175.5 preferred shares or 27.0% of the outstanding preferred shares of one of its Sponsored REITs, Grand Boulevard. On July 19, 2018, the property owned by Grand Boulevard was sold and, thereafter, Grand Boulevard declared and issued a liquidating distribution for its preferred shareholders, from which the Company was entitled to $6.2 million. On August 17, 2018, the Company received $5.9 million in an initial cash distribution. As a result of the sale, the Company recognized a loss on liquidation of $0.1 million. As of June 30, 2019, the Company held a beneficial interest in the Grand Boulevard liquidating trust in the amount of $0.1 million, which is included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

Equity in income (loss) of investments in non-consolidated REITs is derived from the Company’s share of income or loss in the operations of those entities and includes gain or loss on liquidation. The Company exercised influence over, but did not control these entities, and investments are accounted for using the equity method.

Equity in income (loss) of investments in non-consolidated REITs:

The following table includes equity in loss of investments in non-consolidated REITs:


	Six Months Ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2019		2018

Equity in loss of East Wacker	$	—	$	26
Equity in loss of Grand Boulevard		—		52
Impairment charge		—		309
Total	$	—	$	387

The Company received distributions of $710,000 from non-consolidated REITs during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Table of Contents

Management fees and interest income from loans:

Asset management fees range from 1% to 5% of collected rents and the applicable contracts are cancelable with 30 days notice. Asset management fee income from non-consolidated entities amounted to approximately $118,000 and $271,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

From time to time the Company may make secured loans (“Sponsored REIT Loans”) to Sponsored REITs in the form of mortgage loans or revolving lines of credit to fund construction costs, capital expenditures, leasing costs and for other purposes. The Company reviews Sponsored REIT loans for impairment each reporting period. A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts recorded on the balance sheet. The Company applies normal loan review and underwriting procedures (as may be implemented or modified from time to time) in making that judgment. None of the Sponsored REIT loans have been impaired.

The Company anticipates that each Sponsored REIT Loan will be repaid at maturity or earlier from refinancing, long term financings of the underlying properties, cash flows from the underlying properties or some other capital event. Each Sponsored REIT Loan is secured by a mortgage on the underlying property and has a term of approximately one to three years. The mortgage loan bears interest at a fixed rate and advances under the secured revolving line of credit bear interest at a rate equal to the 30-day LIBOR rate plus an agreed upon amount of basis points and also require a 50 basis point draw fee.

The following is a summary of the Sponsored REIT Loans outstanding as of June 30, 2019:


			Maximum		Amount							Interest
(dollars in thousands, except footnotes)		Maturity	Amount		Drawn at		Interest			Draw		Rate at

(1)	The interest rate is 30-day LIBOR rate plus the additional rate indicated, otherwise a fixed rate.

(2)	The draw fee is a percentage of each new advance, and is paid at the time of each new draw.

(3)	This mortgage loan includes an origination fee of $164,000 and an exit fee of $38,000 when repaid by the borrower.

The Company recognized interest income and fees from the Sponsored REIT Loans of approximately $2,553,000 and $2,262,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

3. Bank Note Payable and Term Note Payable

JPM Term Loan

On August 2, 2018, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and lender (“JPMorgan”), and the other lending institutions party thereto (the “JPM Credit Agreement”), which provides a single unsecured bridge loan in the aggregate principal amount of $150 million (the “JPM Term Loan”) that remains fully advanced and outstanding. The JPM Term Loan matures on November 30, 2021. The JPM Term Loan was previously evidenced by a Credit Agreement, dated November 30, 2016, among the Company, JPMorgan, as administrative agent and lender, and the other lending institutions party thereto, as amended by a First Amendment, dated October 18, 2017.

The JPM Term Loan bears interest at either (i) a number of basis points over a LIBOR-based rate depending on the Company’s credit rating (125.0 basis points over the LIBOR-based rate at June 30, 2019) or (ii) a number of basis points over the base rate depending on the Company’s credit rating (25.0 basis points over the base rate at June 30, 2019).

Although the interest rate on the JPM Term Loan is variable under the JPM Credit Agreement, the Company fixed the LIBOR-based rate on a portion of the JPM Term Loan by entering into interest rate swap transactions. On March 7, 2019, the Company entered into ISDA Master Agreements with various financial institutions to hedge a $100 million portion of the future LIBOR-based rate risk under the JPM Credit Agreement. Effective March 29, 2019, the Company fixed the LIBOR-based rate at 2.44% per annum on a $100 million portion of the JPM Term Loan until November 30, 2021. Accordingly, based upon the Company’s credit rating, as of June 30, 2019, the effective interest rate on a $100 million portion of the JPM Term Loan was 3.69% per annum.

Based upon the Company’s credit rating, as of June 30, 2019, the effective interest rate on the unhedged $50 million portion of the JPM Term Loan was 3.69% per annum. The weighted average interest rate on the unhedged $50 million portion of the JPM Term Loan during the six months ended June 30, 2019 was approximately 3.77% per annum. The weighted average interest rate on the JPM Term Loan during the year ended December 31, 2018 was approximately 3.33% per annum.

business, certain restricted payments, the requirement to have subsidiaries provide a guaranty in the event that they incur recourse indebtedness and transactions with affiliates. The JPM Credit Agreement also contains financial covenants that require the Company to maintain a minimum tangible net worth, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, a maximum secured leverage ratio, a maximum leverage ratio, a maximum unencumbered leverage ratio, and minimum unsecured interest coverage. The JPM Credit Agreement provides for customary events of default with corresponding grace periods, including failure to pay any principal or interest when due, certain cross defaults and a change in control of the Company (as defined in the JPM Credit Agreement). In the event of a default by the Company, the administrative agent may, and at the request of the requisite number of lenders shall, declare all obligations under the JPM Credit Agreement immediately due and payable, and enforce any and all rights of the lenders or administrative agent under the JPM Credit Agreement and related documents. For certain events of default related to bankruptcy, insolvency, and receivership, all outstanding obligations of the Company will become immediately due and payable. The Company was in compliance with the JPM Term Loan financial covenants as of June 30, 2019.

BMO Term Loan

On September 27, 2018, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with the lending institutions party thereto and Bank of Montreal (“BMO”), as administrative agent (the “BMO Credit Agreement”). The BMO Credit Agreement provides for a single, unsecured term loan borrowing in the amount of $220 million (the “BMO Term Loan”) that remains fully advanced and outstanding. The BMO Term Loan consists of a $55 million tranche A term loan and a $165 million tranche B term loan. The tranche A term loan matures on November 30, 2021 and the tranche B term loan matures on January 31, 2024. The BMO Credit Agreement also includes an accordion feature that allows up to $100 million of additional loans, subject to receipt of lender commitments and satisfaction of certain customary conditions. The BMO Term Loan was previously evidenced by an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated October 29, 2014, among the Company, BMO, as administrative agent and lender, and the other lending institutions party thereto, as amended by a First Amendment, dated July 21, 2016, and a Second Amendment, dated October 18, 2017.

The BMO Term Loan bears interest at either (i) a number of basis points over LIBOR depending on the Company’s credit rating (125 basis points over LIBOR at June 30, 2019) or (ii) a number of basis points over the base rate depending on the Company’s credit rating (25 basis points over the base rate at June 30, 2019).

Although the interest rate on the BMO Term Loan is variable under the BMO Credit Agreement, the Company fixed the base LIBOR interest rate by entering into interest rate swap transactions. On August 26, 2013, the Company entered into an ISDA Master Agreement with Bank of Montreal that fixed the base LIBOR interest rate on the BMO Term Loan at 2.32% per annum until August 26, 2020. On February 20, 2019, the Company entered into ISDA Master Agreements with a group of banks that fixed the base LIBOR interest rate on the BMO Term Loan at 2.39% per annum for the period beginning on August 26, 2020 and ending January 31, 2024. Accordingly, based upon the Company’s credit rating, as of June 30, 2019, the effective interest rate on the BMO Term Loan was 3.57% per annum.

The BMO Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants for credit facilities of this type, including limitations with respect to indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers and acquisitions, disposition of assets, changes in business, certain restricted payments, the requirement to have subsidiaries provide a guaranty in the event that they incur recourse indebtedness and transactions with affiliates. The BMO Credit Agreement also contains financial covenants that require the Company to maintain a minimum tangible net worth, a maximum leverage ratio, a maximum secured leverage ratio, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, a maximum unencumbered leverage ratio, and minimum unsecured interest coverage. The BMO Credit Agreement provides for customary events of default with corresponding grace periods, including failure to pay any principal or interest when due, certain cross defaults and a change in control of the Company (as defined in the BMO Credit Agreement). In the event of a default by the Company, the administrative agent may, and at the request of the requisite number of lenders shall, declare all obligations under the BMO Credit Agreement immediately due and payable, terminate the lenders’ commitments to make loans under the BMO Credit Agreement, and enforce any and all rights of the lenders or the administrative agent under the BMO Credit Agreement and related documents. For certain events of default related to bankruptcy, insolvency, and receivership, the commitments of lenders will be automatically terminated and all outstanding obligations of the Company will become immediately due and payable. The Company was in compliance with the BMO Term Loan financial covenants as of June 30, 2019.

Table of Contents

The Company may use the proceeds of the loans under the BMO Credit Agreement to finance the acquisition of real properties and for other permitted investments; to finance investments associated with Sponsored REITs to refinance or retire indebtedness and for working capital and other general business purposes, in each case to the extent permitted under the BMO Credit Agreement.

BAML Credit Facility

On July 21, 2016, the Company entered into a First Amendment (the “BAML First Amendment”), and on October 18, 2017, the Company entered into a Second Amendment (the “BAML Second Amendment”), to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated October 29, 2014 among the Company, the lending institutions party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender (as amended by the BAML First Amendment and the BAML Second Amendment, the “BAML Credit Facility”) that continued an existing unsecured revolving line of credit (the “BAML Revolver”) and an existing term loan (the “BAML Term Loan”).

BAML Revolver Highlights

●

The BAML Revolver is for borrowings, at the Company's election, of up to $600 million. Borrowings made pursuant to the BAML Revolver may be revolving loans, swing line loans or letters of credit, the combined sum of which may not exceed $600 million outstanding at any time.

●

Borrowings made pursuant to the BAML Revolver may be borrowed, repaid and reborrowed from time to time until the maturity date of January 12, 2022. The Company has the right to extend the maturity date of the BAML Revolver by two additional 6 month periods, or until January 12, 2023, upon payment of a fee and satisfaction of certain customary conditions.

●

The BAML Credit Facility includes an accordion feature that allows for an aggregate amount of up to $500 million of additional borrowing capacity applicable to the BAML Revolver and/or the BAML Term Loan, subject to receipt of lender commitments and satisfaction of certain customary conditions.

As of June 30, 2019, there were no borrowings outstanding under the BAML Revolver. The BAML Revolver bears interest at either (i) a margin over LIBOR depending on the Company’s credit rating (1.20% over LIBOR at June 30, 2019) or (ii) a margin over the base rate depending on the Company’s credit rating (0.20% over the base rate at June 30, 2019). The BAML Credit Facility also obligates the Company to pay an annual facility fee in an amount that is also based on the Company’s credit rating. The facility fee is assessed against the total amount of the BAML Revolver, or $600 million (0.25% at June 30, 2019).

Based upon the Company’s credit rating, as of June 30, 2019, the interest rate on the BAML Revolver was 3.60% per annum. The weighted average interest rate on all amounts outstanding on the BAML Revolver during the six months ended June 30, 2019 was approximately 3.68% per annum. As of December 31, 2018, there were borrowings of $25 million outstanding under the BAML Revolver at an interest rate of 3.63% per annum.

Table of Contents

Although the interest rate on the BAML Credit Facility is variable, the Company fixed the base LIBOR interest rate on the BAML Term Loan by entering into an interest rate swap agreement. On July 22, 2016, the Company entered into ISDA Master Agreements with a group of banks that fixed the base LIBOR interest rate on the BAML Term Loan at 1.12% per annum for the period beginning on September 27, 2017 and ending on September 27, 2021. Accordingly, based upon the Company’s credit rating, as of June 30, 2019, the effective interest rate on the BAML Term Loan was 2.47% per annum.

BAML Credit Facility General Information

The BAML Credit Facility contains customary affirmative and negative covenants for credit facilities of this type, including limitations with respect to indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers and acquisitions, disposition of assets, changes in business, certain restricted payments, the requirement to have subsidiaries provide a guaranty in the event that they incur recourse indebtedness and transactions with affiliates. The BAML Credit Facility also contains financial covenants that require the Company to maintain a minimum tangible net worth, a maximum leverage ratio, a maximum secured leverage ratio, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, a maximum unencumbered leverage ratio, and minimum unsecured interest coverage. The BAML Credit Facility provides for customary events of default with corresponding grace periods, including failure to pay any principal or interest when due, certain cross defaults and a change in control of the Company (as defined in the BAML Credit Facility). In the event of a default by the Company, the administrative agent may, and at the request of the requisite number of lenders shall, declare all obligations under the BAML Credit Facility immediately due and payable, terminate the lenders’ commitments to make loans under the BAML Credit Facility, and enforce any and all rights of the lenders or administrative agent under the BAML Credit Facility and related documents. For certain events of default related to bankruptcy, insolvency, and receivership, the commitments of lenders will be automatically terminated and all outstanding obligations of the Company will become immediately due and payable. The Company was in compliance with the BAML Credit Facility financial covenants as of June 30, 2019.

The Company may use the proceeds of the loans under the BAML Credit Facility to finance the acquisition of real properties and for other permitted investments; to finance investments associated with Sponsored REITs to refinance or retire indebtedness and for working capital and other general business purposes, in each case to the extent permitted under the BAML Credit Facility.

Senior Notes

On October 24, 2017, the Company entered into a note purchase agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) with the various purchasers named therein (the “Purchasers”) in connection with a private placement of senior unsecured notes. Under the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to sell to the Purchasers an aggregate principal amount of $200 million of senior unsecured notes consisting of (i) 3.99% Series A Senior Notes due December 20, 2024 in an aggregate principal amount of $116 million (the “Series A Notes”) and (ii) 4.26% Series B Senior Notes due December 20, 2027 in an aggregate principal amount of $84 million (the “Series B Notes”) and, together with the Series A Notes, the (“Senior Notes”). On December 20, 2017, the Senior Notes were funded and proceeds were used to reduce the outstanding balance of the BAML Revolver.

The Note Purchase Agreement contains customary financial covenants, including a maximum leverage ratio, a maximum secured leverage ratio, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, and a maximum unencumbered leverage ratio. The Note Purchase Agreement also contains restrictive covenants that, among other things, restrict the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to enter into transactions with affiliates, merge, consolidate, create liens, make certain restricted payments, enter into certain agreements or prepay certain indebtedness. Such financial and restrictive covenants are substantially similar to the corresponding covenants contained in the BAML Credit Facility, the BMO Credit Agreement and the JPM Credit Agreement. The Senior Notes financial covenants require, among other things, the maintenance of a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.50; a maximum leverage ratio and an unsecured leverage ratio of no more than 60% (65% if there were a significant acquisition for a short period of time). In addition, the Note Purchase Agreement provides that the Note Purchase Agreement will automatically incorporate additional financial and other specified covenants (such as limitations on investments and distributions) that are effective from time to time under the existing credit agreements, other material indebtedness or certain other private placements of debt of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Note Purchase Agreement contains customary events of default, including payment defaults, cross defaults with certain other indebtedness, breaches of

covenants and bankruptcy events. In the case of an event of default, the Purchasers may, among other remedies, accelerate the payment of all obligations.

4. Financial Instruments: Derivatives and Hedging

On July 22, 2016, the Company fixed the interest rate for the period beginning on September 27, 2017 and ending on September 27, 2021 on the BAML Term Loan (the “2017 Interest Rate Swap”). On August 26, 2013, the Company fixed the interest rate until August 26, 2020 on the BMO Term Loan (the “2013 BMO Interest Rate Swap”). On March 7, 2019, the Company fixed the interest rate for the period beginning on March 29, 2019 and ending on November 30, 2021 on a $100 million portion of the JPM Term Loan (the “2019 JPM Interest Rate Swap”). On February 20, 2019, the Company fixed the interest rate for the period beginning August 26, 2020 and ending January 31, 2024 on the BMO Term Loan (the “2019 BMO Interest Rate Swap”). The variable rates that were fixed under the 2017 Interest Rate Swap, the 2013 BMO Interest Rate Swap, the 2019 JPM Interest Rate Swap and the 2019 BMO Interest Rate Swap (collectively referred to as the “Interest Rate Swaps”) are described in Note 3.

The Interest Rate Swaps qualify as cash flow hedges and have been recognized on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. If a derivative qualifies as a hedge, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative will either be offset against the change in fair value of the hedged asset, liability, or firm commitment through earnings, or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value will be recognized in earnings in the same period in which the hedged interest payments affect earnings, which may increase or decrease reported net income and stockholders’ equity prospectively, depending on future levels of interest rates and other variables affecting the fair values of derivative instruments and hedged items, but will have no effect on cash flows.

The following table summarizes the notional and fair value of our derivative financial instruments at June 30, 2019. The notional value is an indication of the extent of our involvement in these instruments at that time, but does not represent exposure to credit, interest rate or market risks.


	Notional		Strike		Effective	Expiration	Fair
(in thousands)	Value		Rate		Date	Date	Value

2017 Interest Rate Swap	$	400,000	1.12	%	Sep-17	Sep-21	$	4,645
2013 BMO Interest Rate Swap	$	220,000	2.32	%	Aug-13	Aug-20	$	(1,292)
2019 JPM Interest Rate Swap	$	100,000	2.44	%	Mar-19	Nov-21	$	(1,837)
2019 BMO Interest Rate Swap (1)	$	220,000	2.39	%	Aug-20	Jan-24	$	(5,003)

(1) The Notional Value will decrease to $165 million on November 30, 2021.

On June 30, 2019, the 2017 Interest Rate Swap was reported as an asset at its fair value of approximately $4.6 million, which is included in other assets: derivative asset on the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2019. The 2013 BMO Interest Rate Swap, 2019 JPM Interest Rate Swap and 2019 BMO Interest Rate Swap were reported as a liabilities in the aggregate fair value of approximately $8.1 million and are included in other liabilities: derivative liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2019. Offsetting adjustments are reported as unrealized gains or losses on derivative financial instruments in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss of $18.3 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, $2.9 million was reclassified out of other comprehensive income (“OCI”) and into interest expense.

Table of Contents

The gain/(loss) on the Company’s Interest Rate Swaps that was recorded in OCI and the accompanying consolidated statements of income as a component of interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, was as follows:


(in thousands)	Six Months Ended June 30,
Interest Rate Swaps in Cash Flow Hedging Relatioships:	2019		2018

Amounts of gain (loss) recognized in OCI	$	(15,322)	$	9,708
Amounts of previously recorded gain/(loss) reclassified from OCI into Interest Expense	$	(2,930)	$	(678)

Total amount of Interest Expense presented in the consolidated statements of income	$	18,739	$	19,239

Over time, the unrealized gains and losses held in accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified into earnings as an increase or reduction to interest expense in the same periods in which the hedged interest payments affect earnings. The Company estimates that approximately $0.9 million of the current balance held in accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months.

The Company is hedging the exposure to variability in anticipated future interest payments on existing debt.

The BMO Term Loan, BAML Term Loan and JPM Term Loan hedging transactions used derivative instruments that involve certain additional risks such as counterparty credit risk, the enforceability of hedging contracts and the risk that unanticipated and significant changes in interest rates will cause a significant loss of basis in either or both of the contracts. We require our derivatives contracts to be with counterparties that have investment grade ratings. As a result, we do not anticipate that any counterparty will fail to meet its obligations. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to adequately protect against the foregoing risks or that we will ultimately realize an economic benefit that exceeds the related amounts incurred in connection with engaging in such hedging strategies.

The fair value of the Company’s derivative instruments are determined using the net discounted cash flows of the expected cash flows of the derivative based on the market based interest rate curve and are adjusted to reflect credit or nonperformance risk. The risk is estimated by the Company using credit spreads and risk premiums that are observable in the market. These financial instruments were classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and were classified as an asset or liability on the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company’s derivatives are recorded at fair value in other assets and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The derivatives’ fair value is recorded to comprehensive income in the consolidated statements of other comprehensive income.

5. Net Income Per Share

Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of Company shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue shares were exercised or converted into shares. There were no potential dilutive shares outstanding at each of June 30, 2019 and 2018.

6. Stockholders’ Equity

As of June 30, 2019, the Company had 107,231,155 shares of common stock outstanding. The Company declared and paid dividends as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):


	Dividends Per		Total
Quarter Paid	Share		Dividends

First quarter of 2019	$	0.09	$	9,651
Second quarter of 2019	$	0.09	$	9,651

First quarter of 2018	$	0.19	$	20,374
Second quarter of 2018	$	0.09	$	9,651

7. Income Taxes

General

The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). As a REIT, the Company generally is entitled to a tax deduction for distributions paid to its shareholders, thereby effectively subjecting the distributed net income of the Company to taxation at the shareholder level only. The Company must comply with a variety of restrictions to maintain its status as a REIT. These restrictions include the type of income it can earn, the type of assets it can hold, the number of shareholders it can have and the concentration of their ownership, and the amount of the Company’s taxable income that must be distributed annually.

One such restriction is that the Company generally cannot own more than 10% of the voting power or value of the securities of any one issuer unless the issuer is itself a REIT or a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”). In the case of TRSs, the Company’s ownership of securities in all TRSs generally cannot exceed 20% of the value of all of the Company’s assets beginning with calendar year 2018 and 25% for previous years and, when considered together with other non-real estate assets, cannot exceed 25% of the value of all of the Company’s assets. FSP Investments LLC and FSP Protective TRS Corp. are the Company’s TRSs operating as taxable corporations under the Code.

Income taxes are recorded based on the future tax effects of the difference between the tax and financial reporting bases of the Company’s assets and liabilities. In estimating future tax consequences, potential future events are considered except for potential changes in income tax law or in rates. The Tax Cuts and Job Act of 2017 did not have a material impact on the Company’s income taxes.

Interest and penalties will be recorded as income tax expense, if the Company records a liability in the future. The Company and one or more of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions. The statute of limitations for the Company’s income tax returns is generally three years and as such, the Company’s returns that remain subject to examination would be primarily from 2015 and thereafter.

The Company is subject to a business tax known as the Revised Texas Franchise Tax. Some of the Company’s leases allow reimbursement by tenants for these amounts because the Revised Texas Franchise Tax replaces a portion of the property tax for school districts. Because the tax base on the Revised Texas Franchise Tax is derived from an income based measure, it is considered an income tax. The Company recorded a provision for the Revised Texas Franchise Tax of $164,000 and $134,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Net operating losses

Section 382 of the Code restricts a corporation’s ability to use net operating losses (“NOLs”) to offset future taxable income following certain “ownership changes.” Such ownership changes occurred with past mergers and accordingly a portion of the NOLs incurred by the Sponsored REITs available for use by the Company in any particular future taxable year will be

Table of Contents

limited. To the extent that the Company does not utilize the full amount of the annual NOLs limit, the unused amount may be carried forward to offset taxable income in future years. NOLs expire 20 years after the year in which they arise, and the last of the Company’s NOLs will expire in 2027. A valuation allowance is provided for the full amount of the NOLs as the realization of any tax benefits from such NOLs is not assured. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s ability to use NOLs or the valuation allowance. The gross amount of NOLs available to the Company was $13,041,000 as of each of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Income Tax Expense

The income tax expense reflected in the consolidated statements of income relates primarily to a franchise tax on our Texas properties. FSP Protective TRS Corp. provides taxable services to tenants at some of the Company’s properties, and the tax expenses associated with these activities and a refund receivable of $0.1 million recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2019 are reported as Other Taxes in the table below:


	For the Six Months Ended June 30,
(Dollars in thousands)	2019		2018

Revised Texas Franchise Tax	$	164	$	134
Other Taxes		(112)		23
Tax expense (benefit)	$	52	$	157

Taxes on income are a current tax expense. No deferred income taxes were provided as there were no material temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the TRSs.

8. Leases

Leases as a Lessee:

The Company entered into a noncancelable contract with a third party to obtain office space that commenced on September 1, 2010. The contract was amended on October 25, 2016 to extend the contract through September 30, 2024. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019 and applied the package of practical expedients that allows an entity to not reassess (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (iii) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases. As of June 30, 2019, the Company’s right-to-use asset was $1,975,000, which is included in prepaid and other assets on the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2019.

The Company has an option to extend the terms of its office space lease with one 5-year extension. As of June 30, 2019, the exercise of the extension option was not reasonably certain. Therefore, the extension option is not recognized as part of the Company’s right-of-use asset and lease liability.

A discount rate equal to the Company’s incremental borrowing rate applied to the future monthly contractual lease payments remaining as of June 30, 2019 to compute the lease liability. The incremental borrowing rate is the rate equal to the closest borrowing under the BAML Revolver at the time of the Company’s adoption of ASU 2016-02.

The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from the related lease component of its real estate lease, therefore the accounting for the lease remains largely unchanged from the previous standard.

Leases as a Lessor:

The Company is a lessor of commercial real estate with operations that include the leasing of office and industrial properties. Many of the leases with customers contain options to extend leases at a fair market rate and may also include options to terminate leases. The Company considers several inputs when evaluating the amount it expects to derive from its leased assets at the end of the lease terms, such as the remaining useful life, expected market conditions, fair value of lease payments, expected fair values of underlying assets, and expected deployment of the underlying assets. The Company’s strategy to address its risk for the residual value in its commercial real estate is to re-lease the commercial space.

The Company has elected to apply the practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from the related lease component of real estate leases. This combined component is primarily comprised of fixed lease payments, early termination fees, common area maintenance cost reimbursements, and parking lease payments. The Company applies ASC 842-Leases to the combined lease and non-lease components.

A minority of the Company’s leases are subject to annual changes in the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). Although increases in the CPI are not estimated as part of the Company’s measurement of straight-line rent revenue, to the extent that the actual CPI is greater or less than the CPI at lease commencement, there could be changes to realized income or loss.

Overview

FSP Corp., or we or the Company, operates in a single reportable segment: real estate operations. The real estate operations market involves real estate rental operations, leasing, secured financing of real estate and services provided for asset management, property management, property acquisitions, dispositions and development. Our current strategy is to invest in infill and central business district properties in the United States sunbelt and mountain west regions, as well as select opportunistic markets. We believe that the United States sunbelt and mountain west regions have macro-economic drivers that have the potential to increase occupancies and rents. We seek value-oriented investments with an eye towards long-term growth and appreciation, as well as current income.

As of June 30, 2019, approximately 7.7 million square feet, or approximately 78% of our total owned portfolio, was located in Atlanta, Dallas, Denver, Houston and Minneapolis. From time-to-time we may dispose of our smaller, suburban office assets and replace them with larger infill and central business district office assets. As we execute this strategy, short term operating results could be adversely impacted. However, we believe that the transformed portfolio has the potential to provide higher profit and asset value growth over a longer period of time.

The main factor that affects our real estate operations is the broad economic market conditions in the United States. These market conditions affect the occupancy levels and the rent levels on both a national and local level. We have no influence on broader economic/market conditions. We look to acquire and/or develop quality properties in good locations in order to lessen the impact of downturns in the market and to take advantage of upturns when they occur.

Critical Accounting Policies

We have certain critical accounting policies that are subject to judgments and estimates by our management and uncertainties of outcome that affect the application of these policies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates. In the event estimates or assumptions prove to be different from actual results, adjustments are made in subsequent periods to reflect more current information. The accounting policies that we believe are most critical to the understanding of our financial position and results of operations, and that require significant management estimates and judgments, are discussed in Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Table of Contents

Critical accounting policies are those that have the most impact on the reporting of our financial condition and results of operations and those requiring significant judgments and estimates. We believe that our judgments and assessments are consistently applied and produce financial information that fairly presents our results of operations. Except for the accounting for allowance for doubtful accounts impacted by ASC 842, no changes to our critical accounting policies have occurred since the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Recent Accounting Standards

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (“ASU 2016-02”), in July 2018; the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases and ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements (“ASU 2018-11”); and in December 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-20 Leases (Topic 842), Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to establish a lease liability for the obligation to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset for the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term on their balance sheets. Lessees will continue to recognize lease expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to current accounting. The guidance also eliminates current real estate-specific provisions for all entities. For lessors, the guidance modifies the classification criteria and the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases. This new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods thereafter with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted these standards on January 1, 2019 and applied the package of practical expedients that allows an entity to not reassess (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (iii) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases. Additionally, our leases met the criteria in ASU 2018-11 to not separate non-lease components from the related lease component, therefore the accounting for these leases remained largely unchanged from the previous standard. We applied the optional transition method in ASU 2018-11, which allows entities to initially apply the new lease standard at the adoption date. The Company recorded a right-to-use asset and a lease liability of $2.2 million upon adoption of this standard.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which requires that entities use a new forward looking “expected loss” model that generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowance for credit losses. The measurement of expected credit losses is based upon historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company’s receivables associated with its real estate operating leases are note within the scope of this standard. The Company is currently assessing the potential impact that the adoption of ASU 2016-13 may have on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (“ASU 2017-12”), which amends and simplifies existing guidance in order to allow companies to more accurately present the economic effects of risk management activities in the financial statements. The amendment also eases the application of hedge accounting in certain situations, including eliminating the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness for cash flow hedges. ASU 2017-12 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and earlier adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this new standard in the first quarter of 2019 using the modified retrospective method, which requires us to account for ASU 2017-12 as of the date of adoption with any retrospective adjustments applicable to prior periods included as a cumulative-effect adjustment to accumulate other comprehensive loss and retained earnings. No adjustment was necessary to account for the cumulative effect of the change on the opening balance of each affected component of equity in the consolidated balance sheet as of the date of adoption because there was no cumulative ineffectiveness that had been recorded on the Company’s existing interest

rate swaps as of December 31, 2018, and all trades were highly effective. The amended presentation and disclosure guidance which is required to be presented prospectively is provided in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements included under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Trends and Uncertainties

Economic Conditions

The economy in the United States is continuing to experience a period of economic growth, which directly affects the demand for office space, our primary income producing asset. The broad economic market conditions in the United States are affected by numerous factors, including but not limited to, inflation and employment levels, energy prices, the pace of economic growth and/or recessionary concerns, uncertainty about government fiscal, monetary, trade and tax policies, changes in currency exchange rates, geopolitical events, the regulatory environment, the availability of credit and interest rates. Any increase in interest rates could result in increased borrowing costs to us. However, we could also benefit from any further improved economic fundamentals and increasing levels of employment. We believe that the economy is improving in many markets and appears to be in a broad-based upswing. However, future economic factors may negatively affect real estate values, occupancy levels and property income.

Real Estate Operations

Leasing

As of June 30, 2019, our real estate portfolio was comprised of 32 operating properties, which we refer to as our operating properties, and 3 redevelopment properties that are in the process of being redeveloped, or are completed but not yet stabilized, which we refer to as our redevelopment properties. We collectively refer to our operating and our redevelopment properties as our owned portfolio. Our 32 operating properties were approximately 88.1% leased as of June 30, 2019, a decrease from 89.0% as of December 31, 2018. The 0.9% decrease in leased space was a result of the impact of lease expirations and terminations, which exceeded new leasing completed during the six months ended June 30, 2019. As of June 30, 2019, we had approximately 1,133,000 square feet of vacancy in our operating properties compared to approximately 1,046,000 square feet of vacancy at December 31, 2018. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we leased approximately 835,000 square feet of office space, of which approximately 617,000 square feet were with existing tenants, at a weighted average term of 7.6 years. On average, tenant improvements for such leases were $26.69 per square foot, lease commissions were $11.18 per square foot and rent concessions were approximately three months of free rent. Average GAAP base rents under such leases were $31.46 per square foot, or 13.6% higher than average rents in the respective properties as applicable compared to the year ended December 31, 2018.

As of June 30, 2019, our three redevelopment properties included an approximately 130,000 square foot redevelopment property known as 801 Marquette in Minneapolis, Minnesota, an approximately 213,000 square foot property known as Blue Lagoon in Miami, Florida and an approximately 62,000 square foot property known as Forest Park in Charlotte, North Carolina. Given the length of the redevelopment and lease-up process, these properties are not placed in service until, in some cases, years after we commence the project.

The redevelopment at 801 Marquette was substantially completed at the end of the second quarter of 2017 and is in the process of being leased up; however, it is not stabilized. As of June 30, 2019, we had leases signed and tenant’s occupying approximately 37.0% of the rentable square feet of the property. We expect to incur redevelopment and lease-up costs of $27.7 million, of which we had incurred approximately $22.0 million as of June 30, 2019.

The redevelopment of Blue Lagoon commenced in December 2018 following the maturity of a lease with a tenant that occupied 100% of the property. We expect to incur restoration, redevelopment and lease-up costs of $28.1 million, which include work on the roof of the building, costs to make the space suitable for multiple tenants and to increase parking at the property. As of June 30, 2019, we had incurred approximately $3.7 million in total redevelopment costs. We anticipate completing the redevelopment by the end of 2019.

The redevelopment of Forest Park commenced in January 2019 following the maturity of a lease with a tenant that occupied 100% of the property through December 31, 2018. We expect to incur redevelopment and lease-up costs of $3.8 million,

Table of Contents

which include interior work to make the space suitable for multiple tenants. As of June 30, 2019, we had incurred approximately $0.5 million in total redevelopment costs. We anticipate completing the redevelopment by the end of the third quarter of 2019.

As of June 30, 2019, leases for approximately 3.4% and 8.1% of the square footage in our owned portfolio are scheduled to expire during 2019 and 2020, respectively. As the third quarter of 2019 begins, we believe that our operating properties are well stabilized, with a balanced lease expiration schedule, and that existing vacancy is being actively marketed to numerous potential tenants. We believe that most of our largest property markets are now experiencing generally steady or improving rental conditions. We are seeing increased potential leasing activity in the energy influenced markets of Houston and Denver compared to the last several years. We anticipate positive leasing activity within our operating properties during the remainder of 2019 and throughout 2020.

While we cannot generally predict when an existing vacancy in our owned portfolio will be leased or if existing tenants with expiring leases will renew their leases or what the terms and conditions of the lease renewals will be, we expect to renew or sign new leases at then-current market rates for locations in which the buildings are located, which could be above or below the expiring rates. Also, we believe the potential for any of our tenants to default on its lease or to seek the protection of bankruptcy exists. If any of our tenants defaults on its lease, we may experience delays in enforcing our rights as a landlord and may incur substantial costs in protecting our investment. In addition, at any time, a tenant of one of our properties may seek the protection of bankruptcy laws, which could result in the rejection and termination of such tenant’s lease and thereby cause a reduction in cash available for distribution to our stockholders.

Comparison of the three months ended June 30, 2019 to the three months ended June 30, 2018:

Revenues

Total revenues increased by $0.1 million to $66.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was primarily a result of:

●

An increase in rental revenue of approximately $0.1 million arising primarily from rental income earned from leases commencing in 2019 and 2018, which was partially offset by the loss of rental income from leases that expired in 2019 and 2018, and an increase in interest income from Sponsored REIT loans primarily due to higher interest rates in 2019 compared to 2018. Our leased space in our operating properties was 88.1% at June 30, 2019 and 89.0% at June 30, 2018.

Expenses

Total expenses decreased by $0.6 million to $65.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease was primarily a result of:

●

A decrease in depreciation and amortization of approximately $1.5 million.

●

A decrease in interest expense of approximately $0.4 million. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower debt outstanding, which was partially offset by higher interest rates during the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018.

These decreases were partially offset by:

●

An increase in real estate operating expenses and real estate taxes and insurance of approximately $0.7 million.

Table of Contents

●

An increase in general and administrative expenses of $0.6 million, which was primarily attributable to personnel related expenses and lease acquisition costs.

Tax expense on income

Included in income taxes is the Revised Texas Franchise Tax, which is a tax on revenues from Texas properties, which increased $17,000, and federal and other income taxes, which decreased by $11,000, during the three months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018.

Equity in income (loss) of non-consolidated REITs

Equity in loss from non-consolidated REITs was $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. Our investments in non-consolidated REITs were liquidated during 2018. The equity in income (loss) during the year ended December 31, 2018 consisted of equity in income from our preferred stock investment in East Wacker of $7.2 million, which sold its property on September 24, 2018, and was partially offset by equity in loss from our preferred stock investment in Grand Boulevard of $0.1 million, which sold its property on July 19, 2018. In addition, during the three months ended June 30, 2018, we recognized an impairment charge of $0.3 million, which represented the other-than-temporary decline in the fair value below the carrying value of the Company’s investments in non-consolidated REITs.

Net income

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $1.6 million compared to net income of $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, for the reasons described above.

Comparison of the six months ended June 30, 2019 to the six months ended June 30, 2018:

Revenues

Total revenues decreased by $2.1 million to $131.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018. The decrease was primarily a result of:

●

A decrease in rental revenue of approximately $2.2 million arising primarily from the loss of rental income from leases that expired in 2019 and 2018. The decrease was partially offset by rental income earned from leases commencing in 2019 and 2018. Our leased space in our operating properties was 88.1% at June 30, 2019 and 89.0% at June 30, 2018.

This decrease was partially offset by:

●

An increase in interest income from loans of approximately $0.1 million, primarily from higher interest rates in 2019 compared to 2018.

Expenses

Total expenses increased by $0.1 million to $131.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018. The increase was primarily a result of:

●

An increase in real estate operating expenses and real estate taxes and insurance of approximately $2.2 million.

●

An increase in general and administrative expenses of $0.7 million, which was primarily attributable to personnel related expenses and lease acquisition costs.

Table of Contents

This increase was partially offset by:

●

A decrease in depreciation and amortization of approximately $2.3 million.

●

A decrease in interest expense of approximately $0.5 million. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower debt outstanding, which was partially offset by higher interest rates during the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the same period in 2018.

Tax expense on income

Included in income taxes is the Revised Texas Franchise Tax, which is a tax on revenues from Texas properties, which increased $30,000, and federal and other income taxes, which decreased by $135,000, during the six months ended June 30,2019 compared to the six months ended June 30,2018, primarily as a result of a refund arising due to the provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.

Equity in income (loss) of non-consolidated REITs

Equity in loss from non-consolidated REITs was $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Our investments in non-consolidated REITs were liquidated during 2018. The equity in income (loss) during the year ended December 31, 2018 consisted of equity in income from our preferred stock investment in East Wacker of $7.2 million, which sold its property on September 24, 2018, and was partially offset by equity in loss from our preferred stock investment in Grand Boulevard of $0.1 million, which sold its property on July 19, 2018.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Funds From Operations

The Company evaluates performance based on Funds From Operations, which we refer to as FFO, as management believes that FFO represents the most accurate measure of activity and is the basis for distributions paid to equity holders. The Company defines FFO as net income or loss (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, hedge ineffectiveness, acquisition costs of newly acquired properties that are not capitalized and lease acquisition costs that are not capitalized plus depreciation and amortization, including amortization of acquired above and below market lease intangibles and impairment charges on properties or investments in non-consolidated REITs, and after adjustments to exclude equity in income or losses from, and, to include the proportionate share of FFO from, non-consolidated REITs.

FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income or loss (determined in accordance with GAAP), nor as an indicator of the Company’s financial performance, nor as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP), nor as a measure of the Company’s liquidity, nor is it necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of the Company’s needs.

Other real estate companies and the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, may define this term in a different manner. We have included the NAREIT FFO definition as of May 17, 2016 in the table and note that other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do.

We believe that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of the results of the Company, FFO should be examined in connection with net income or loss and cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities in the consolidated financial statements.

The calculations of FFO are shown in the following table:

Net Operating Income (NOI)

The Company provides property performance based on Net Operating Income, which we refer to as NOI. Management believes that investors are interested in this information. NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company defines as net income or loss (the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure) plus selling, general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, including amortization of acquired above and below market lease intangibles and impairment charges, interest expense, less equity in earnings of nonconsolidated REITs, interest income, management fee income, hedge ineffectiveness, gains or losses on the sale of assets and excludes non-property specific income and expenses. The information presented includes footnotes and the data is shown by region with properties owned in the periods presented, which we call Same Store. The comparative Same Store results include properties held for the periods presented and exclude properties that are non-operating, being developed or redeveloped, dispositions and significant nonrecurring income such as bankruptcy settlements and lease termination fees. NOI, as defined by the Company, may not

be comparable to NOI reported by other REITs that define NOI differently. NOI should not be considered an alternative to net income or loss as an indication of our performance or to cash flows as a measure of the Company’s liquidity or its ability to make distributions. The calculations of NOI are shown in the following table:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash were $13.1 million and $11.2 million at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The increase of $1.9 million is attributable to $24.7 million provided by operating activities, plus $21.6 million provided by investing activities less $44.4 million used in financing activities. Management believes that existing cash, cash anticipated to be generated internally by operations and our existing debt financing will be sufficient to meet working capital requirements and anticipated capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months. Although there is no guarantee that we will be able to obtain the funds necessary for our future growth, we anticipate generating funds from continuing real estate operations. We believe that we have adequate funds to cover unusual expenses and capital improvements, in addition to normal operating expenses. Our ability to maintain or increase our level of dividends to stockholders, however, depends in significant part upon the level of rental income from our real estate properties.

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 of $24.7 million is primarily attributable to net income of $0.4 million plus the add-back of $41.7 million of non-cash expenses and an increase in prepaid and other assets of $2.4 million and an increase in tenant security deposits of $2.8 million. These amounts were partially offset by a decrease to accounts payable and accrued expenses and accrued compensation of $9.6 million, an increase in payments of deferred leasing commissions of $8.1 million, an increase in lease acquisition costs of $2.6 million and a decrease tenant rent recivables of $2.3 million.

Investing Activities

Cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 of $21.6 million is primarily attributable to the repayment of two Sponsored REIT Loans in the aggregate of $51.5 million and proceeds received from a liquidating trust of $1.4 million. These sources were partially offset by purchases of other real estate assets and office equipment investments of approximately $28.9 million and an investment in related party mortgage loan receivable of $2.4 million.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 of $44.4 million is primarily attributable to net repayments on the BAML Revolver (as defined below) of $25 million, distributions paid to stockholders of $19.3 million and deferred financing costs incurred of $0.1 million.

JPM Term Loan

Table of Contents

The JPM Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants for credit facilities of this type, including limitations with respect to indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers and acquisitions, disposition of assets, changes in business, certain restricted payments, the requirement to have subsidiaries provide a guaranty in the event that they incur recourse indebtedness and transactions with affiliates. The JPM Credit Agreement also contains financial covenants that require the Company to maintain a minimum tangible net worth, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, a maximum secured leverage ratio, a maximum leverage ratio, a maximum unencumbered leverage ratio, and minimum unsecured interest coverage. The JPM Credit Agreement provides for customary events of default with corresponding grace periods, including failure to pay any principal or interest when due, certain cross defaults and a change in control of the Company (as defined in the JPM Credit Agreement). In the event of a default by the Company, the administrative agent may, and at the request of the requisite number of lenders shall, declare all obligations under the JPM Credit Agreement immediately due and payable, and enforce any and all rights of the lenders or administrative agent under the JPM Credit Agreement and related documents. For certain events of default related to bankruptcy, insolvency, and receivership, all outstanding obligations of the Company will become immediately due and payable. The Company was in compliance with the JPM Term Loan financial covenants as of June 30, 2019.

The BMO Credit Agreement also contains financial covenants that require the Company to maintain a minimum tangible net worth, a maximum leverage ratio, a maximum secured leverage ratio, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, a maximum unencumbered leverage ratio, and minimum unsecured interest coverage. The BMO Credit Agreement provides for customary events of default with corresponding grace periods, including failure to pay any principal or interest when due, certain cross defaults and a change in control of the Company (as defined in the BMO Credit Agreement). In the event of a default by the Company, the administrative agent may, and at the request of the requisite number of lenders shall, declare all obligations under the BMO Credit Agreement immediately due and payable, terminate the lenders’ commitments to make loans under the BMO Credit Agreement, and enforce any and all rights of the lenders or the administrative agent under the BMO Credit Agreement and related documents. For certain events of default related to bankruptcy, insolvency, and receivership, the commitments of lenders will be automatically terminated and all outstanding obligations of the Company will become immediately due and payable. The Company was in compliance with the BMO Term Loan financial covenants as of June 30, 2019.

BAML Credit Facility

BAML Revolver Highlights

●

●

The BAML Term Loan matures on January 12, 2023.

●

On September 27, 2012, the Company drew down the entire $400 million under the BAML Term Loan and such amount remains fully advanced and outstanding under the BAML Term Loan.

BAML Credit Facility General Information

The Company may use the proceeds of the loans under the BAML Credit Facility to finance the acquisition of real properties and for other permitted investments; to finance investments associated with Sponsored REITs, to refinance or retire indebtedness and for working capital and other general business purposes, in each case to the extent permitted under the BAML Credit Facility.

Senior Notes

On October 24, 2017, the Company entered into a note purchase agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) with the various purchasers named therein (the “Purchasers”) in connection with a private placement of senior unsecured notes. Under the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to sell to the Purchasers an aggregate principal amount of $200 million of senior unsecured notes consisting of (i) 3.99% Series A Senior Notes due December 20, 2024 in an aggregate principal amount of $116 million (the “Series A Notes”) and (ii) 4.26% Series B Senior Notes due December 20, 2027 in an aggregate principal amount of $84 million (the “Series B Notes,” and, together with the Series A Notes, the “Senior Notes”). On December 20, 2017, the Senior Notes were funded and proceeds were used to reduce the outstanding balance of the BAML Revolver.

Table of Contents

Equity Securities

As of June 30, 2019, we had an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the offer and sale, from time to time, of an indeterminate amount of our debt securities, common stock, preferred stock or depository shares. From time to time, we expect to issue debt securities, common stock, preferred stock or depository shares under our existing automatic shelf registration statements or a different registration statement to fund the acquisition of additional properties, to pay down any existing debt financing and for other corporate purposes.

Contingencies

From time to time, we may provide financing to Sponsored REITs in the form of a construction loan and/or a revolving line of credit secured by a mortgage. As of June 30, 2019, we were committed to fund up to $26.5 million to two Sponsored REITs under such arrangements for the purpose of funding construction costs, capital expenditures, leasing costs or for other purposes, of which $21.5 million has been drawn and is outstanding. We anticipate that advances made under these facilities will be repaid at their maturity date or earlier from refinancing, long term financings of the underlying properties, cash flows from the underlying properties or another other capital event.

We may be subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of our business. Although occasional adverse decisions (or settlements) may occur, we believe that the final disposition of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Related Party Transactions

We intend to draw on the BAML Credit Facility in the future for a variety of corporate purposes, including the acquisition of properties that we acquire directly for our portfolio and for Sponsored REIT Loans as described below.

Loans to Sponsored REITs

Sponsored REIT Loans

From time to time we may make secured loans (“Sponsored REIT Loans”) to Sponsored REITs in the form of mortgage loans or revolving lines of credit to fund construction costs, capital expenditures, leasing costs and for other purposes. We anticipate that each Sponsored REIT Loan will be repaid at maturity or earlier from refinancing, long term financings of the underlying properties, cash flows from the underlying properties or some other capital event. Each Sponsored REIT Loan is secured by a mortgage on the underlying property and has a term of approximately two to three years. The currently outstanding mortgage loan bears interest at a fixed rate and advances under the secured revolving line of

Table of Contents

credit bear interest at a rate equal to the 30-day LIBOR rate plus an agreed upon amount of basis points and also require a 50 basis point draw fee.

Our Sponsored REIT Loans subject us to credit risk. However, we believe that our position as asset manager of each of the Sponsored REITs helps mitigate that risk by providing us with unique insight and the ability to rely on qualitative analysis of the Sponsored REITs. Before making a Sponsored REIT Loan, we consider a variety of subjective factors, including the quality of the underlying real estate, leasing, the financial condition of the applicable Sponsored REIT and local and national market conditions. These factors are subject to change and we do not apply a formula or assign relative weights to the factors. Instead, we make a subjective determination after considering such factors collectively.

Additional information about our Sponsored REIT Loans outstanding as of June 30, 2019, including a summary table of our Sponsored REIT Loans, is incorporated herein by reference to Part I, Item 1, Note 2, “Related Party Transactions and Investments in Non-Consolidated Entities”, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report.

Other Considerations

We generally pay the ordinary annual operating expenses of our properties from the rental revenue generated by the properties. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, the rental income exceeded the expenses for each individual property, with the exception of one property located in Minneapolis, Minnesota for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and one property located in Houston, Texas for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

Our property located at 801 Marquette Avenue in Minneapolis, Minnesota (“801 Marquette Avenue”) had approximately 170,000 square feet of rentable space and became vacant in January 2016. On June 30, 2016, we commenced a redevelopment plan for the property and substantially completed the redevelopment in the second quarter of 2017. Redevelopment of 801 Marquette Avenue resulted in approximately 129,800 of net rentable square feet for the property. As of June 30, 2019, we have signed leases with two tenants that now occupy 48,000 square feet, or 37% of rentable square feet at the property. As a result, we had rental income of $129,000 and operating expenses of $277,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2019. We had rental income of $214,000 and operating expenses of $563,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2019. We had no rental income and operating expenses of $52,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2018. We had no rental income and operating expenses of $89,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2018

The property located in Houston, Texas has approximately 157,000 square feet of rentable space and became substantially vacant on April 30, 2017 when two tenants vacated 155,000 square feet of space. The property signed leases that commenced in 2019 for approximately 105,000 square feet, or 66.9% of the square feet of the property. We had rental income of $9,000 and had operating expenses of $368,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2018. We had rental income of $11,000 and had operating expenses of $738,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market Rate Risk

We are exposed to changes in interest rates primarily from our floating rate borrowing arrangements. We use interest rate derivative instruments to manage exposure to interest rate changes. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, if market rates on our outstanding borrowings under the BAML Revolver and the floating rate portion of the JPM Term Loan increased by 10% at maturity, or approximately 37 and 38 basis points, respectively, over the current variable rate, the increase in interest expense would decrease future earnings and cash flows by $0.2 million and $0.7 million annually, respectively. Based upon our credit rating, the interest rate on the BAML Revolver as of June 30, 2019 was LIBOR plus 120 basis points, or 3.60% per annum. Based upon our credit rating, the interest rate on the $50 million portion of the JPM Term Loan that is not subject to interest rate swap transactions as of June 30, 2019 was the LIBOR-based rate plus 125 basis points,

or 3.69% per annum. We do not believe that the interest rate risk on the BAML Revolver and the JPM Term Loan is material as of June 30, 2019.

Although the interest rates on the BMO Term Loan, the BAML Term Loan and the JPM Term Loan are variable, the Company fixed the base LIBOR interest rates on the BMO Term Loan and the BAML Term Loan, and the LIBOR-based rate on a $100 million portion of the JPM Term Loan, by entering into interest rate swap agreements. On July 22, 2016, the Company fixed the interest rate for the period beginning on September 27, 2017 and ending on September 27, 2021 on the BAML Term Loan with multiple interest rate swap agreements (the “2017 Interest Rate Swap”). On August 26, 2013, the Company fixed the interest rate until August 26, 2020 on the BMO Term Loan with an interest rate swap agreement (the “2013 BMO Interest Rate Swap”). On March 7, 2019, the Company fixed the interest rate for the period beginning on March 29, 2019 and ending on November 30, 2021 for the notional value of $100 million on the JPM Term Loan (the “2019 JPM Interest Rate Swap”). On February 20, 2019, the Company fixed the interest rate for the period beginning August 26, 2020 and ending January 31, 2024 on the BMO Term Loan (the “2019 BMO Interest Rate Swap”). Accordingly, based upon our credit rating, as of June 30, 2019, the interest rate on the BAML Term Loan was 2.47% per annum, the interest rate on the BMO Term Loan was 3.57% per annum, and the interest rate on $100 million of the JPM Term Loan was 3.69% per annum. The fair value of these interest rate swaps are affected by changes in market interest rates. We believe that we have mitigated interest rate risk with respect to the BAML Term Loan through the 2017 Interest Rate Swap from September 27, 2017 until September 27, 2021. We believe that we have mitigated interest rate risk with respect to the BMO Term Loan through the 2013 BMO Interest Rate Swap and the 2019 BMO Interest Rate Swap until January 31, 2024. We believe that we have mitigated the interest rate risk on a $100 million portion of the JPM Term Loan until November 30, 2021 with the 2019 JPM Interest Rate Swap. These interest rate swaps were our only derivative instruments as of June 30, 2019.

The table below lists our derivative instruments, which are hedging variable cash flows related to interest on our BAML Term Loan, BMO Term Loan and a portion of the JPM Term Loan as of June 30, 2019 (in thousands):


	Notional		Strike		Effective	Expiration	Fair
(in thousands)	Value		Rate		Date	Date	Value

2017 Interest Rate Swap	$	400,000	1.12	%	Sep-17	Sep-21	$	4,645
2013 BMO Interest Rate Swap	$	220,000	2.32	%	Aug-13	Aug-20	$	(1,292)
2019 JPM Interest Rate Swap	$	100,000	2.44	%	Mar-19	Nov-21	$	(1,837)
2019 BMO Interest Rate Swap (1)	$	220,000	2.39	%	Aug-20	Jan-24	$	(5,003)

(1) The Notional Value will decrease to $165 million on November 30, 2021.

Our BMO Term Loan, BAML Term Loan and JPM Term Loan hedging transactions used derivative instruments that involve certain additional risks such as counterparty credit risk, the enforceability of hedging contracts and the risk that unanticipated and significant changes in interest rates will cause a significant loss of basis in either or both of the contracts. We require our derivatives contracts to be with counterparties that have investment grade ratings. As a result, we do not anticipate that any counterparty will fail to meet its obligations. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to adequately protect against the foregoing risks or that we will ultimately realize an economic benefit that exceeds the related amounts incurred in connection with engaging in such hedging strategies.

The Company’s derivatives are recorded at fair value in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, the effective portion of the derivatives’ fair value is recorded to other comprehensive income in the consolidated statements of other comprehensive income (loss) and the ineffective portion of the derivatives’ fair value is recognized directly into earnings as Other in the consolidated statements of income.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2019. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2019, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
