1. Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business
Highwoods Properties, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company”), is a fully-integrated, self-administered and self-managed equity real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that provides leasing, management, development, construction and other customer-related services for its properties and for third parties. The Company conducts virtually all of its activities through Highwoods Realty Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”). At June 30, 2012, the Company and/or the Operating Partnership wholly owned: 304 in-service office, industrial and retail properties, comprising 29.5 million square feet; nine for-sale residential condominiums; 581 acres of undeveloped land suitable for future development, of which 518 acres are considered core assets; and one office property under development.
The Company is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. At June 30, 2012, the Company owned all of the Preferred Units and 75.2 million, or 95.3%, of the Common Units in the Operating Partnership. Limited partners, including one officer and two directors of the Company, own the remaining 3.7 million Common Units. In the event the Company issues shares of Common Stock, the net proceeds are contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for additional Common Units. Generally, the Operating Partnership is required to redeem each Common Unit at the request of the holder thereof for cash equal to the value of one share of the Company’s Common Stock, $0.01 par value, based on the average of the market price for the 10 trading days immediately preceding the notice date of such redemption, provided that the Company at its option may elect to acquire any such Common Units presented for redemption for cash or one share of Common Stock. The Common Units owned by the Company are not redeemable. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company redeemed 18,366 Common Units for a like number of shares of Common Stock. The redemptions, in conjunction with the proceeds from issuances of Common Stock contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for additional Common Units, increased the percentage of Common Units owned by the Company from 95.1% at December 31, 2011 to 95.3% at June 30, 2012.
Common Stock Offerings
The Company has entered into equity sales agreements with various financial institutions to offer and sell, from time to time, shares of its Common Stock by means of ordinary brokers' transactions on the New York Stock Exchange or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices or as otherwise agreed with any of the institutions. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company issued 1,836,976 and 2,622,476 shares, respectively, of Common Stock under these agreements at an average gross sales price of $33.72 and $33.45 per share, respectively, raising net proceeds, after sales commissions and expenses, of $61.0 million and $86.4 million, respectively.
Basis of Presentation
Our Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Our Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2011 was recast from previously reported amounts to reflect in real estate and other assets, net, held for sale those properties which qualified as held for sale during the three months ended June 30, 2012. Our Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 were recast from previously reported amounts to reflect in discontinued operations the operations for those properties that qualified for discontinued operations. Prior period amounts related to capital expenditures in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
Our Consolidated Financial Statements include the Operating Partnership, wholly owned subsidiaries and those entities in which we have the controlling financial interest. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had involvement with no entities that we concluded to be variable interest entities.

1. Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies – Continued
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying unaudited consolidated financial information, in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. We have omitted certain notes and other information from the interim consolidated financial statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as permitted by SEC rules and regulations. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
As a result of adopting certain new or amended accounting pronouncements in the first quarter of 2012, we have enhanced our disclosure of assets and liabilities measured at fair value and elected to continue use of credit valuation adjustments on a net basis by counterparty as part of the calculation to determine the fair value of our derivatives. Our disclosures now include: (1) significant transfers between Levels 1 and 2 of the fair value hierarchy, if any; (2) additional quantitative and qualitative information regarding fair value measurements categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy; and (3) the hierarchy classification for items whose fair value is not recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets but was disclosed previously in our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Additionally, we have presented comprehensive income in a separate financial statement entitled Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
2. Real Estate Assets
Acquisitions
During the second quarter of 2012, we acquired a 178,300 square foot office property in Cary, NC from our DLF I joint venture for an agreed upon value of $26.0 million by reducing the balance of the advance due to us from the joint venture.
Dispositions
During the second quarter of 2012, we sold a non-core office property in Pinellas County, FL for gross proceeds of $9.5 million. We recorded gain on disposition of discontinued operations of $1.4 million related to this disposition.
During the first quarter of 2012, we sold 96 vacant rental residential units in Kansas City, MO for gross proceeds of $11.0 million. We recorded gain on disposition of discontinued operations of $5.1 million related to this disposition.

3. Mortgages and Notes Receivable - Continued
Our mortgages and notes receivable consist primarily of seller financing issued in conjunction with two disposition transactions in 2010. This seller financing is evidenced by first mortgages secured by the assignment of rents and the underlying real estate assets. We evaluate the collectibility of the receivables by monitoring the leasing statistics and market fundamentals of these assets. As of June 30, 2012, the payments on both mortgages receivable were current and there were no other indications of impairment on the receivables. We may be required to take impairment charges in the future if and to the extent the underlying collateral diminishes in value.
The following table sets forth our notes receivable allowance, which relates only to promissory notes:

4. Investments in and Advances to Affiliates - Continued
In 2011, we provided a $38.3 million interest-only secured loan to our DLF I joint venture that originally was scheduled to mature in March 2012. The loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 500 basis points. The maturity date of the loan has been extended to September 30, 2012. In the second quarter of 2012, we acquired an office property from the joint venture by reducing the balance of the advance due to us from the joint venture. We deferred our share of the gain recorded by the joint venture related to this transaction. We recorded interest income from this loan in interest and other income of $0.2 million and $0.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $0.7 million and $0.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
In the second quarter of 2012, our DLF II joint venture obtained a $50.0 million, three-year secured mortgage loan from a third party lender, bearing a fixed interest rate of 3.5% on $39.1 million of the loan and a floating interest rate of LIBOR plus 250 basis points on $10.9 million of the loan, which was used by the joint venture to repay a secured loan at maturity to a third party lender.
During the first quarter of 2012, we recorded $1.0 million as our share of impairment of real estate assets on two office properties in our DLF I joint venture, due to a decline in projected occupancy and a change in the assumed holding period of those assets, which reduced the expected future cash flows from the properties.

In connection with the acquisition of an office property in Cary, NC in the second quarter of 2012, we recorded $2.7 million of in-place lease intangible assets with a weighted average amortization period of 6.3 years at the date of the acquisition. The contractual rents of the in-place lease acquired were determined to be at market.
6. Mortgages and Notes Payable
The following table sets forth our mortgages and notes payable:
June 30, 2012 | December 31, 2011 | ||||||
Secured indebtedness | $ | 743,492 | $ | 750,049 | |||
Unsecured indebtedness | 1,079,636 | 1,153,164 | |||||
Total mortgages and notes payable | $ | 1,823,128 | $ | 1,903,213 |
At June 30, 2012, our secured mortgage loans were secured by real estate assets with an aggregate undepreciated book value of $1,237.7 million.
Our $475.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility is scheduled to mature on July 27, 2015 and includes an accordion feature that allows for an additional $75.0 million of borrowing capacity subject to additional lender commitments. Assuming no defaults have occurred, we have an option to extend the maturity for an additional year. The interest rate at our current credit ratings is LIBOR plus 150 basis points and the annual facility fee is 35 basis points. The interest rate and facility fee are based on the higher of the publicly announced ratings from Moody's Investors Service or Standard & Poor's Ratings Services. We use our revolving credit facility for working capital purposes and for the short-term funding of our development and acquisition activity and, in certain instances, the repayment of other debt. Continuing ability to borrow under the revolving credit facility allows us to quickly capitalize on strategic opportunities at short-term interest rates. There was $75.5 million and $28.1 million outstanding under our revolving credit facility at June 30, 2012 and July 19, 2012, respectively. At both June 30, 2012 and July 19, 2012, we had $0.1 million of outstanding letters of credit, which reduces the availability on our revolving credit facility. As a result, the unused capacity of our revolving credit facility at June 30, 2012 and July 19, 2012 was $399.4 million and $446.8 million, respectively.

6. Mortgages and Notes Payable - Continued
In the second quarter of 2012, we repurchased $12.1 million principal amount of unsecured notes due March 2017 bearing interest of 5.85% for a purchase price of 107.5% of par value. We recorded $1.0 million of loss on debt extinguishment related to this repurchase.
In the first quarter of 2012, we obtained a $225.0 million, seven-year unsecured bank term loan bearing interest of LIBOR plus 190 basis points. This floating interest rate effectively was fixed by the interest rate swaps discussed in Note 7. The proceeds were used to pay off amounts then outstanding under our revolving credit facility.
We are currently in compliance with the debt covenants and other requirements with respect to our outstanding debt.
7. | Derivative Financial Instruments |
We have six floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps for seven-year periods each with respect to an aggregate of $225.0 million LIBOR-based borrowings. These swaps effectively fix the underlying LIBOR rate at a weighted average of 1.678%. The counterparties under the swaps are major financial institutions. The swap agreements contain a provision whereby if we default on any of our indebtedness, if greater than $10.0 million and that results in repayment of such indebtedness being, or becoming capable of being accelerated by the lender, then we could also be declared in default on our derivative obligations. These swaps have been designated as and are being accounted for as cash flow hedges with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income each reporting period. No gain or loss was recognized related to hedge ineffectiveness or to amounts excluded from effectiveness testing on our cash flow hedges during the six months ended June 30, 2012. As of June 30, 2012, we have not posted any collateral related to our interest rate swap liability.
Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCL") related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on our variable-rate debt. During the period from July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2013, we estimate that $3.1 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.

8. | Noncontrolling Interests |
Noncontrolling Interests in the Operating Partnership
Noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership relate to the ownership of Common Units by various individuals and entities other than the Company. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership is computed by applying the weighted average percentage of Common Units not owned by the Company during the period, as a percent of the total number of outstanding Common Units, to the Operating Partnership’s net income for the period after deducting distributions on Preferred Units.

9. | Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
The following summarizes the three levels of inputs that we use to measure fair value, as well as the assets, noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership and liabilities that we recognize at fair value using those levels of inputs.
Level 1. Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Our Level 1 assets are investments in marketable securities that we use to pay benefits under our non-qualified deferred compensation plan. Our Level 1 noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership relate to the ownership of Common Units by various individuals and entities other than the Company. Our Level 1 liability is our non-qualified deferred compensation obligation.
Level 2. Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities.

9. | Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments - Continued |
Our Level 2 asset is the fair value of our mortgages and notes receivable, which was estimated by the income approach utilizing contractual cash flows and market-based interest rates to approximate the price that would be paid in an orderly transaction between market participants.
Our Level 2 liabilities include (1) the fair value of our mortgages and notes payable, which was estimated by the income approach utilizing contractual cash flows and market-based interest rates to approximate the price that would be paid in an orderly transaction between market participants and (2) interest rate swaps whose fair value is determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts and the discounted expected variable cash payments. The variable cash payments of our interest rate swaps are based on the expectation of future LIBOR interest rates (forward curves) derived from observed market LIBOR interest rate curves. In addition, credit valuation adjustments are incorporated in the fair values to account for potential nonperformance risk, but were concluded to not be significant inputs to the calculation for the periods presented.
Level 3. Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Our Level 3 assets include our tax increment financing bond, which is not routinely traded but whose fair value is determined by the income approach utilizing contractual cash flows and market-based interest rates to estimate the projected redemption value based on quoted bid/ask prices for similar unrated municipal bonds and, if any, real estate assets and for-sale residential condominiums recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis as a result of our quarterly impairment analysis, which were valued using broker opinion of value and substantiated by internal cash flow projections.
Our Level 3 liability is the fair value of our financing obligations, which was estimated by the income approach to approximate the price that would be paid in an orderly transaction between market participants, utilizing: (1) contractual cash flows; (2) market-based interest rates; and (3) a number of other assumptions including demand for space, competition for customers, changes in market rental rates, costs of operation and expected ownership periods.
The following tables set forth the assets, noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership and liabilities that we measure at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy. We determine the level based on the lowest level of substantive input used to determine fair value.

In 2007, we acquired a tax increment financing bond associated with a parking garage developed by us. This bond amortizes to maturity in 2020. The estimated fair value at June 30, 2012 was $1.7 million below the outstanding principal due on the bond. If the discount rate used to fair value this bond was 100 basis points higher or lower, the fair value of the bond would have been $0.6 million lower or $0.6 million higher, respectively, as of June 30, 2012. We intend to hold this bond and have concluded that we will not be required to sell this bond before recovery of the bond principal. Payment of the principal and interest for the bond is guaranteed by us. We have recorded no credit losses related to the bond during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. There is no legal right of offset with the liability, which we report as a financing obligation, related to this tax increment financing bond.

Tax increment financing bond | $ | 15,371 | Income approach | Discount rate | 9.85 | % |
10. | Share-based Payments |
During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we granted 190,886 stock options with an exercise price equal to the closing market price of a share of our Common Stock on the date of grant. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which resulted in a weighted average grant date fair value per share of $5.47. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we also granted 90,983 shares of time-based restricted stock and 67,902 shares of total return-based restricted stock with weighted average grant date fair values per share of $32.27 and $38.71, respectively. We recorded stock-based compensation expense of $2.0 million and $1.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $4.5 million and $3.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

(Unaudited)
1. Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business
Highwoods Properties, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company”), is a fully-integrated, self-administered and self-managed equity real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that provides leasing, management, development, construction and other customer-related services for its properties and for third parties. The Company conducts virtually all of its activities through Highwoods Realty Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”). At June 30, 2012, the Company and/or the Operating Partnership wholly owned: 304 in-service office, industrial and retail properties, comprising 29.5 million square feet; nine for-sale residential condominiums; 581 acres of undeveloped land suitable for future development, of which 518 acres are considered core assets; and one office property under development.
The Company is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. At June 30, 2012, the Company owned all of the Preferred Units and 75.2 million, or 95.3%, of the Common Units in the Operating Partnership. Limited partners, including one officer and two directors of the Company, own the remaining 3.7 million Common Units. In the event the Company issues shares of Common Stock, the net proceeds are contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for additional Common Units. Generally, the Operating Partnership is required to redeem each Common Unit at the request of the holder thereof for cash equal to the value of one share of the Company’s Common Stock, $0.01 par value, based on the average of the market price for the 10 trading days immediately preceding the notice date of such redemption, provided that the Company at its option may elect to acquire any such Common Units presented for redemption for cash or one share of Common Stock. The Common Units owned by the Company are not redeemable. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company redeemed 18,366 Common Units for a like number of shares of Common Stock. The redemptions, in conjunction with the proceeds from issuances of Common Stock contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for additional Common Units, increased the percentage of Common Units owned by the Company from 95.1% at December 31, 2011 to 95.3% at June 30, 2012.
Common Stock Offerings
The Company has entered into equity sales agreements with various financial institutions to offer and sell, from time to time, shares of its Common Stock by means of ordinary brokers' transactions on the New York Stock Exchange or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices or as otherwise agreed with any of the institutions. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company issued 1,836,976 and 2,622,476 shares, respectively, of Common Stock under these agreements at an average gross sales price of $33.72 and $33.45 per share, respectively, raising net proceeds, after sales commissions and expenses, of $61.0 million and $86.4 million, respectively.
Basis of Presentation
Our Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Our Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2011 was revised from previously reported amounts to reflect in real estate and other assets, net, held for sale those properties which qualified as held for sale during the three months ended June 30, 2012. Our Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 were revised from previously reported amounts to reflect in discontinued operations the operations for those properties that qualified for discontinued operations. Prior period amounts related to capital expenditures in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
Our Consolidated Financial Statements include wholly owned subsidiaries and those entities in which we have the controlling financial interest. All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had involvement with no entities that we concluded to be variable interest entities.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(tabular dollar amounts in thousands, except per unit data)
1. Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies – Continued
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying unaudited consolidated financial information, in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. We have omitted certain notes and other information from the interim consolidated financial statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as permitted by SEC rules and regulations. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
As a result of adopting certain new or amended accounting pronouncements in the first quarter of 2012, we have enhanced our disclosure of assets and liabilities measured at fair value and elected to continue use of credit valuation adjustments on a net basis by counterparty as part of the calculation to determine the fair value of our derivatives. Our disclosures now include: (1) significant transfers between Levels 1 and 2 of the fair value hierarchy, if any; (2) additional quantitative and qualitative information regarding fair value measurements categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy; and (3) the hierarchy classification for items whose fair value is not recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets but was disclosed previously in our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Additionally, we have presented comprehensive income in a separate financial statement entitled Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
2. Real Estate Assets
Acquisitions
During the second quarter of 2012, we acquired a 178,300 square foot office property in Cary, NC from our DLF I joint venture for an agreed upon value of $26.0 million by reducing the balance of the advance due to us from the joint venture.
Dispositions
During the second quarter of 2012, we sold a non-core office property in Pinellas County, FL for gross proceeds of $9.5 million. We recorded gain on disposition of discontinued operations of $1.4 million related to this disposition.
During the first quarter of 2012, we sold 96 vacant rental residential units in Kansas City, MO for gross proceeds of $11.0 million. We recorded gain on disposition of discontinued operations of $5.1 million related to this disposition.

(tabular dollar amounts in thousands, except per unit data)
3. Mortgages and Notes Receivable - Continued
Our mortgages and notes receivable consist primarily of seller financing issued in conjunction with two disposition transactions in 2010. This seller financing is evidenced by first mortgages secured by the assignment of rents and the underlying real estate assets. We evaluate the collectibility of the receivables by monitoring the leasing statistics and market fundamentals of these assets. As of June 30, 2012, the payments on both mortgages receivable were current and there were no other indications of impairment on the receivables. We may be required to take impairment charges in the future if and to the extent the underlying collateral diminishes in value.
The following table sets forth our notes receivable allowance, which relates only to promissory notes:

In 2011, we provided a $38.3 million interest-only secured loan to our DLF I joint venture that originally was scheduled to mature in March 2012. The loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 500 basis points. The maturity date of the loan has been extended to September 30, 2012. In the second quarter of 2012, we acquired an office property from the joint venture by reducing the balance of the advance due to us from the joint venture. We deferred our share of the gain recorded by the joint venture related to this transaction. We recorded interest income from this loan in interest and other income of $0.2 million and $0.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $0.7 million and $0.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
In the second quarter of 2012, our DLF II joint venture obtained a $50.0 million, three-year secured mortgage loan from a third party lender, bearing a fixed interest rate of 3.5% on $39.1 million of the loan and a floating interest rate of LIBOR plus 250 basis points on $10.9 million of the loan, which was used by the joint venture to repay a secured loan at maturity to a third party lender.
During the first quarter of 2012, we recorded $1.0 million as our share of impairment of real estate assets on two office properties in our DLF I joint venture, due to a decline in projected occupancy and a change in the assumed holding period of those assets, which reduced the expected future cash flows from the properties.

Unsecured indebtedness | 1,079,636 | 1,153,164 | |||||
Total mortgages and notes payable | $ | 1,823,128 | $ | 1,903,213 |
At June 30, 2012, our secured mortgage loans were secured by real estate assets with an aggregate undepreciated book value of $1,237.7 million.
Our $475.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility is scheduled to mature on July 27, 2015 and includes an accordion feature that allows for an additional $75.0 million of borrowing capacity subject to additional lender commitments. Assuming no defaults have occurred, we have an option to extend the maturity for an additional year. The interest rate at our current credit ratings is LIBOR plus 150 basis points and the annual facility fee is 35 basis points. The interest rate and facility fee are based on the higher of the publicly announced ratings from Moody's Investors Service or Standard & Poor's Ratings Services. We use our revolving credit facility for working capital purposes and for the short-term funding of our development and acquisition activity and, in certain instances, the repayment of other debt. Continuing ability to borrow under the revolving credit facility allows us to quickly capitalize on strategic opportunities at short-term interest rates. There was $75.5 million and $28.1 million outstanding under our revolving credit facility at June 30, 2012 and July 19, 2012, respectively. At both June 30, 2012 and July 19, 2012, we had $0.1 million of outstanding letters of credit, which reduces the availability on our revolving credit facility. As a result, the unused capacity of our revolving credit facility at June 30, 2012 and July 19, 2012 was $399.4 million and $446.8 million, respectively.

6. Mortgages and Notes Payable - Continued
In the second quarter of 2012, we repurchased $12.1 million principal amount of unsecured notes due March 2017 bearing interest of 5.85% for a purchase price of 107.5% of par value. We recorded $1.0 million of loss on debt extinguishment related to this repurchase.
In the first quarter of 2012, we obtained a $225.0 million, seven-year unsecured bank term loan bearing interest of LIBOR plus 190 basis points. This floating interest rate effectively was fixed by the interest rate swaps discussed in Note 7. The proceeds were used to pay off amounts then outstanding under our revolving credit facility.
We are currently in compliance with the debt covenants and other requirements with respect to our outstanding debt.
7. | Derivative Financial Instruments |
We have six floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps for seven-year periods each with respect to an aggregate of $225.0 million LIBOR-based borrowings. These swaps effectively fix the underlying LIBOR rate at a weighted average of 1.678%. The counterparties under the swaps are major financial institutions. The swap agreements contain a provision whereby if we default on any of our indebtedness, if greater than $10.0 million and that results in repayment of such indebtedness being, or becoming capable of being accelerated by the lender, then we could also be declared in default on our derivative obligations. These swaps have been designated as and are being accounted for as cash flow hedges with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income each reporting period. No gain or loss was recognized related to hedge ineffectiveness or to amounts excluded from effectiveness testing on our cash flow hedges during the six months ended June 30, 2012. As of June 30, 2012, we have not posted any collateral related to our interest rate swap liability.
Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCL") related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on our variable-rate debt. During the period from July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2013, we estimate that $3.1 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.

9. | Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
The following summarizes the three levels of inputs that we use to measure fair value, as well as the assets and liabilities that we recognize at fair value using those levels of inputs.
Level 1. Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Our Level 1 assets are investments in marketable securities that we use to pay benefits under our non-qualified deferred compensation plan. Our Level 1 liability is our non-qualified deferred compensation obligation.
Level 2. Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities.
Our Level 2 asset is the fair value of our mortgages and notes receivable, which was estimated by the income approach utilizing contractual cash flows and market-based interest rates to approximate the price that would be paid in an orderly transaction between market participants.
Our Level 2 liabilities include (1) the fair value of our mortgages and notes payable, which was estimated by the income approach utilizing contractual cash flows and market-based interest rates to approximate the price that would be paid in an orderly transaction between market participants and (2) interest rate swaps whose fair value is determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts and the discounted expected variable cash payments. The variable cash payments of our interest rate swaps are based on the expectation of future LIBOR interest rates (forward curves) derived from observed market LIBOR interest rate curves. In addition, credit valuation adjustments are incorporated in the fair values to account for potential nonperformance risk, but were concluded to not be significant inputs to the calculation for the periods presented.
Level 3. Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Our Level 3 assets include our tax increment financing bond, which is not routinely traded but whose fair value is determined by the income approach utilizing contractual cash flows and market-based interest rates to estimate the projected redemption value based on quoted bid/ask prices for similar unrated municipal bonds and, if any, real estate assets and for-sale residential condominiums recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis as a result of our quarterly impairment analysis, which were valued using broker opinion of value and substantiated by internal cash flow projections.
Our Level 3 liability is the fair value of our financing obligations, which was estimated by the income approach to approximate the price that would be paid in an orderly transaction between market participants, utilizing: (1) contractual cash flows; (2) market-based interest rates; and (3) a number of other assumptions including demand for space, competition for customers, changes in market rental rates, costs of operation and expected ownership periods.

In 2007, we acquired a tax increment financing bond associated with a parking garage developed by us. This bond amortizes to maturity in 2020. The estimated fair value at June 30, 2012 was $1.7 million below the outstanding principal due on the bond. If the discount rate used to fair value this bond was 100 basis points higher or lower, the fair value of the bond would have been $0.6 million lower or $0.6 million higher, respectively, as of June 30, 2012. We intend to hold this bond and have concluded that we will not be required to sell this bond before recovery of the bond principal. Payment of the principal and interest for the bond is guaranteed by us. We have recorded no credit losses related to the bond during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. There is no legal right of offset with the liability, which we report as a financing obligation, related to this tax increment financing bond.

In early July 2012, the Company issued 451,300 shares of Common Stock from sales in the second quarter of 2012 under our equity sales agreements at an average gross sales price of $33.52 per share raising net proceeds, after sales commissions and expenses, of $14.9 million.
On July 13, 2012, we acquired two medical office properties in Greensboro, NC for $16.4 million. The transaction included the issuance of approximately 77,000 Common Units. We expect to expense approximately $0.1 million of costs related to this acquisition.
On July 13, 2012, we sold five non-core office buildings in Nashville, TN for $41.0 million. We expect to record gain on disposition of discontinued operations of $6.8 million related to this disposition.
On July 25, 2012, we sold three GSA-leased buildings in Jackson, MS and Atlanta, GA for $86.5 million. We expect to record gain on disposition of discontinued operations of $14.0 million related to this disposition.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company is a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed equity REIT that provides leasing, management, development, construction and other customer-related services for our properties and for third parties. The Company conducts virtually all of its activities through the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership is managed by the Company, its sole general partner. At June 30, 2012, we owned or had an interest in 338 in-service office, industrial and retail properties, encompassing approximately 34.6 million square feet, which includes one office property under development encompassing 203,000 square feet and a 12.5% interest in a 261,000 square foot office property directly owned by the Company (not included in the Operating Partnership's Consolidated Financial Statements); nine for-sale residential condominiums and a 215-unit rental residential property under development. We are based in Raleigh, North Carolina, and our properties and development land are located in Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia. Additional information about us can be found on our website at www.highwoods.com. Information on our website is not part of this Quarterly Report.
You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.
Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Some of the information in this Quarterly Report may contain forward-looking statements. Such statements include, in particular, statements about our plans, strategies and prospects under this section. You can identify forward-looking statements by our use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “continue” or other similar words. Although we believe that our plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that our plans, intentions or expectations will be achieved. When considering such forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the following important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement:
• | the financial condition of our customers could deteriorate; |
• | we may not be able to lease or release second generation space, defined as previously occupied space that becomes available for lease, quickly or on as favorable terms as old leases; |
• | we may not be able to lease our newly constructed buildings as quickly or on as favorable terms as originally anticipated; |
• | we may not be able to complete development, acquisition, reinvestment, disposition or joint venture projects as quickly or on as favorable terms as anticipated; |
• | development activity by our competitors in our existing markets could result in an excessive supply of office, industrial and retail properties relative to customer demand; |
• | our markets may suffer declines in economic growth; |
• | unanticipated increases in interest rates could increase our debt service costs; |
• | unanticipated increases in operating expenses could negatively impact our operating results; |
• | we may not be able to meet our liquidity requirements or obtain capital on favorable terms to fund our working capital needs and growth initiatives or to repay or refinance outstanding debt upon maturity; and |
• | the Company could lose key executive officers. |
This list of risks and uncertainties, however, is not intended to be exhaustive. You should also review the other cautionary statements we make in “Item 1A. Business – Risk Factors” set forth in our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect any future events or circumstances or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Executive Summary
Our Strategic Plan focuses on:
• | owning high-quality, differentiated real estate assets in the better submarkets in our core markets; |
• | improving the operating results of our existing properties through concentrated leasing, asset management, cost control and customer service efforts; |
• | developing and acquiring office properties in key infill submarkets that improve the overall quality of our portfolio and generate attractive returns over the long-term for our stockholders; |
• | selectively disposing of properties no longer considered to be core assets primarily due to location, age, quality and overall strategic fit; and |
• | maintaining a conservative, flexible balance sheet with ample liquidity to meet our funding needs and growth prospects. |
While we own and operate a limited number of industrial, retail and residential properties, our operating results depend heavily on successfully leasing and operating our office properties. Economic growth and employment levels in our core markets are and will continue to be important determinative factors in predicting our future operating results.
The key components affecting our rental and other revenues are average occupancy, rental rates, new developments placed in service, acquisitions and dispositions. Average occupancy generally increases during times of improving economic growth, as our ability to lease space outpaces vacancies that occur upon the expirations of existing leases. Average occupancy generally declines during times of slower economic growth, when new vacancies tend to outpace our ability to lease space. Asset acquisitions, dispositions and new developments placed in service directly impact our rental revenues and could impact our average occupancy, depending upon the occupancy rate of the properties that are acquired, sold or placed in service. A further indicator of the predictability of future revenues is the expected lease expiration schedule of our portfolio. As a result, in addition to seeking to increase our average occupancy by leasing current vacant space, we also must concentrate our leasing efforts on renewing leases on expiring space.
Whether or not our rental revenue tracks average occupancy proportionally depends upon whether rents under new leases signed are higher or lower than the rents under the previous leases. Annualized rental revenues from second generation leases signed during any particular year are generally less than 15% of our total annual rental revenues. During the second quarter of 2012, we leased 0.6 million square feet of second generation office space, defined as space previously occupied under our ownership that becomes available for lease or acquired vacant space, with a weighted average term of 4.4 years. On average, tenant improvements for such leases were $10.29 per square foot, lease commissions were $2.65 per square foot and rent concessions were $2.65 per square foot. Annualized GAAP rents under such office leases were $21.71 per square foot, or 2.6% higher than under previous leases.
We strive to maintain a diverse, stable and creditworthy customer base. We have an internal guideline whereby customers that account for more than 3% of our revenues are periodically reviewed with the Company's Board of Directors. Currently, no customer accounts for more than 3% of our revenues other than the Federal Government, which accounts for 9.0% of our revenues, as of June 30, 2012. After the disposition of three GSA-leased buildings on July 25, 2012, the Federal Government accounts for 7.0% of our revenues.
Our expenses primarily consist of rental property expenses, depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses and interest expense. From time to time, expenses also include impairments of assets held for use. Rental property expenses are expenses associated with our ownership and operation of rental properties and include expenses that vary somewhat proportionately to occupancy levels, such as common area maintenance and utilities, and expenses that do not vary based on occupancy, such as property taxes and insurance. Depreciation and amortization is a non-cash expense associated with the ownership of real property and generally remains relatively consistent each year, unless we buy, place in service or sell assets, since we depreciate our properties and related building and tenant improvement assets on a straight-line basis over a fixed life. General and administrative expenses, net of amounts capitalized, consist primarily of management and employee salaries and other personnel costs, corporate overhead and long-term incentive compensation.
48
We intend to maintain a conservative and flexible balance sheet that allows us to capitalize on favorable development and acquisition opportunities as they arise. As of June 30, 2012, our mortgages and notes payable represented 44.9% of the undepreciated book value of our assets. We expect this ratio to remain under 50% during the remainder of 2012.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011
Rental and Other Revenues
Rental and other revenues from continuing operations were $16.1 million, or 14.0%, higher in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to 2011 primarily due to the acquisitions of office properties in Pittsburgh, PA and Atlanta, GA in the third quarter of 2011 and an office property in Raleigh, NC in the second quarter of 2012, which collectively accounted for $12.5 million of the increase. In addition, same property revenues were $3.5 million higher in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to 2011 primarily due to an increase in same property average occupancy and annualized GAAP rents per square foot from 89.9% and $18.54 in the second quarter of 2011 to 91.4% and $18.82 in the second quarter of 2012, respectively, higher operating expense recoveries due to higher operating expenses, higher net termination fees due to an early termination at an office property in Atlanta, GA and lower bad debts. We expect rental and other revenues for the remainder of 2012, adjusted for any discontinued operations and additional acquisition activity, to be higher compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to the contribution of acquisitions made in the third quarter of 2011, partly offset by slightly lower average occupancy in our same property portfolio as a result of the early termination discussed above.
Operating Expenses
Rental property and other expenses were $7.2 million, or 17.9%, higher in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to 2011 primarily due to recent acquisitions, which accounted for $5.5 million of the increase. In addition, same property operating expenses were $1.6 million higher in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to 2011 primarily due to higher repairs and maintenance, utilities and insurance costs, partly offset by lower real estate taxes. We expect rental property and other expenses for the remainder of 2012, adjusted for any discontinued operations and additional acquisition activity, to be higher compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to the contribution of acquisitions made in the third quarter of 2011.
Operating margin, defined as rental and other revenues less rental property and other expenses expressed as a percentage of rental and other revenues, was lower at 64.0% in the second quarter of 2012, as compared to 65.2% in the second quarter of 2011. Operating margin is expected to be similar for the remainder of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011.
Depreciation and amortization was $7.6 million, or 23.2%, higher in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to 2011 primarily due to recent acquisitions, which accounted for $5.4 million of the increase. In addition, same property depreciation and amortization was $1.9 million higher in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to 2011 primarily due to an early termination. We expect depreciation expense for the remainder of 2012, adjusted for any discontinued operations and additional acquisition activity, to be higher compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to the contribution of acquisitions made in the third quarter of 2011.
General and administrative expenses were $0.9 million, or 11.6%, higher in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to 2011 primarily due to higher salaries and incentive compensation. We expect general and administrative expenses for the remainder of 2012, adjusted for additional acquisition activity, to decrease over the same period in 2011 due to lower dead deal and acquisition costs.
Other Income
Other income was $1.1 million lower in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to 2011 primarily due to a loss on debt extinguishment of outstanding bonds in 2012.
Interest Expense
Interest expense was $0.6 million, or 2.5%, higher in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to 2011 primarily due to higher average debt balances from recent acquisitions, offset by lower average interest rates and financing obligation interest expense. We anticipate interest expense will increase for the remainder of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 due to the full year impact of higher average debt balances from acquisitions, partly offset by lower average interest rates on our outstanding borrowings and lower financing obligation interest expense in 2012.
49
Net Gains on Disposition of Discontinued Operations
Net gains on disposition of discontinued operations were $1.4 million higher in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to 2011 due to the disposition of an office property in Pinellas County, FL in the second quarter of 2012.
Dividends on Preferred Stock and Excess of Preferred Stock Redemption/Repurchase Cost Over Carrying Value
Dividends on Preferred Stock were $1.0 million lower in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to 2011 and excess of Preferred Stock redemption/repurchase cost over carrying value was $1.9 million lower in the second quarter of 2012 as compared to 2011 due to the redemption of all remaining Series B Preferred Shares in the second quarter of 2011.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011
Rental and Other Revenues
Rental and other revenues from continuing operations were $31.8 million, or 14.0%, higher in the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to the acquisitions of office properties in Pittsburgh, PA and Atlanta, GA in the third quarter of 2011 and an office property in Raleigh, NC in the second quarter of 2012, which accounted for $24.6 million of the increase. Same property revenues were $6.7 million higher in the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to an increase in same property average occupancy and annualized GAAP rents per square foot from 90.1% and $18.38 in the first six months of 2011 to 91.1% and $18.73 in the first six months of 2012, higher operating expense recoveries and higher net termination fees.
Operating Expenses
Rental property and other expenses were $12.5 million, or 15.6%, higher in the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to recent acquisitions, which accounted for $11.5 million of the increase. Same property operating expenses were $0.7 million higher in the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to higher repairs and maintenance costs, offset by lower utilities from the mild winter in 2012 and lower real estate taxes.
Operating margin, defined as rental and other revenues less rental property and other expenses expressed as a percentage of rental and other revenues, was lower at 64.3% in the first six months of 2012, as compared to 64.8% in the first six months of 2011.
Depreciation and amortization was $12.5 million, or 19.0%, higher in the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to recent acquisitions, which accounted for $10.1 million of the increase. In addition, same property depreciation and amortization was $2.2 million higher in the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to an early termination.
General and administrative expenses were $2.8 million, or 17.8%, higher in the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to higher salaries and incentive compensation.
Interest Expense
Interest expense was $1.8 million, or 3.9%, higher in the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to higher average debt balances from recent acquisitions, offset by lower average interest rates and financing obligation interest expense.
Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Affiliates
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates was $1.5 million lower in the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 primarily due to our share of impairment of real estate assets on two office properties in our DLF I joint venture.
Net Gains on Disposition of Discontinued Operations
Net gains on disposition of discontinued operations were $6.5 million higher in the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 due to the disposition of 96 rental residential units in Kansas City, MO in the first quarter of 2012 and an office property in Pinellas County, FL in the second quarter of 2012.
50
Dividends on Preferred Stock and Excess of Preferred Stock Redemption/Repurchase Cost Over Carrying Value
Dividends on Preferred Stock were $2.0 million lower in the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 and excess of Preferred Stock redemption/repurchase cost over carrying value was $1.9 million lower in the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 due to the redemption of all remaining Series B Preferred Shares in the second quarter of 2011.
51
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Our goal is to maintain a conservative and flexible balance sheet with access to multiple sources of debt and equity capital and sufficient availability under our revolving credit facility. We generally use rents received from customers to fund our operating expenses, capital expenditures and distributions. To fund property acquisitions, development activity or building renovations and repay debt upon maturity, we may use current cash balances, sell assets, obtain new debt and/or issue equity. Our debt generally consists of mortgage debt, unsecured debt securities and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.
Statements of Cash Flows
We report and analyze our cash flows based on operating activities, investing activities and financing activities. The following table sets forth the changes in the Company’s cash flows ($ in thousands):
Six Months Ended June 30, | |||||||||||
2012 | 2011 | Change | |||||||||
Net Cash Provided By Operating Activities | $ | 93,328 | $ | 87,595 | $ | 5,733 | |||||
Net Cash Used In Investing Activities | (39,024 | ) | (78,913 | ) | 39,889 | ||||||
Net Cash Used In Financing Activities | (58,965 | ) | (13,649 | ) | (45,316 | ) | |||||
Total Cash Flows | $ | (4,661 | ) | $ | (4,967 | ) | $ | 306 |
In calculating net cash related to operating activities, depreciation and amortization, which are non-cash expenses, are added back to net income. As a result, we have historically generated a positive amount of cash from operating activities. From period to period, cash flow from operations depends primarily upon changes in our net income, as discussed more fully above under “Results of Operations,” changes in receivables and payables, and net additions or decreases in our overall portfolio, which affect the amount of depreciation and amortization expense.
Net cash related to investing activities generally relates to capitalized costs incurred for leasing and major building improvements and our acquisition, development, disposition and joint venture capital activity. During periods of significant net acquisition and/or development activity, our cash used in such investing activities will generally exceed cash provided by investing activities, which typically consists of cash received upon the sale of properties and distributions of capital from our joint ventures.
Net cash related to financing activities generally relates to distributions, incurrence and repayment of debt, and issuances, repurchases or redemptions of Common Stock, Common Units and Preferred Stock. As discussed previously, we use a significant amount of our cash to fund distributions. Whether or not we have increases in the outstanding balances of debt during a period depends generally upon the net effect of our acquisition, disposition, development and joint venture activity. We generally use our revolving credit facility for working capital purposes, which means that during any given period, in order to minimize interest expense, we may record significant repayments and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.
The change in net cash related to operating activities in the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 was primarily due to net operating income from acquisitions made in the third quarter of 2011, partly offset by the timing of real estate tax payments.
The change in net cash related to investing activities in the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 was primarily due to a loan to an unconsolidated affiliate in the second quarter of 2011 and higher net proceeds from the disposition of real estate assets in the first six months of 2012, partly offset by higher capital expenditures in the first six months of 2012 related to recent acquisitions.
The change in net cash related to financing activities in the first six months of 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 was primarily due to higher net repayments of borrowings in the first six months of 2012, partly offset by higher proceeds from the issuance of Common Stock in the first six months of 2012 and the repurchase of Preferred Stock in the second quarter of 2011.

At June 30, 2012, our mortgages and notes payable represented 40.0% of our total market capitalization and consisted of $743.5 million of secured indebtedness with a weighted average interest rate of 5.50% and $1,079.6 million of unsecured indebtedness with a weighted average interest rate of 4.77%. The secured indebtedness was collateralized by real estate assets with an aggregate undepreciated book value of $1,237.7 million.
Current and Future Cash Needs
Rental and other revenues are our principal source of funds to meet our short-term liquidity requirements. Other sources of funds for short-term liquidity needs include available working capital and borrowings under our existing revolving credit facility, which had $446.8 million of availability at July 19, 2012. Our short-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of operating expenses, interest and principal amortization on our debt, dividends and distributions and capital expenditures, including building improvement costs, tenant improvement costs and lease commissions. Building improvements are capital costs to maintain existing buildings not typically related to a specific customer. Tenant improvements are the costs required to customize space for the specific needs of customers. We anticipate that our available cash and cash equivalents and cash provided by operating activities, together with cash available from borrowings under our revolving credit facility, will be adequate to meet our short-term liquidity requirements.
Our long-term liquidity uses generally consist of the retirement or refinancing of debt upon maturity (including mortgage debt, our revolving and construction credit facilities, term loans and other unsecured debt), funding of existing and new building development or land infrastructure projects and funding acquisitions of buildings and development land. Additionally, we may, from time to time, retire some or all of our remaining outstanding Preferred Stock and/or unsecured debt securities through redemptions, open market repurchases, privately negotiated acquisitions or otherwise.
We expect to meet our long-term liquidity needs through a combination of:
• | cash flow from operating activities; |
• | borrowings under our revolving credit facility; |
• | the issuance of unsecured debt; |
• | the issuance of secured debt; |
• | the issuance of equity securities by the Company or the Operating Partnership; and |
• | the disposition of non-core assets. |
Recent Acquisition and Disposition Activity
During the second quarter of 2012, we acquired a 178,300 square foot office property in Cary, NC from our DLF I joint venture for an agreed upon value of $26.0 million.
53
During the second quarter of 2012, we sold a non-core office property in Pinellas County, FL for gross proceeds of $9.5 million. We recorded gain on disposition of discontinued operations of $1.4 million related to this disposition.
On July 13, 2012, we acquired two medical office properties in Greensboro, NC for $16.4 million. The transaction included the issuance of approximately 77,000 Common Units. We expect to expense approximately $0.1 million of costs related to this acquisition. In addition, we expect to acquire a third related medical office property in Greensboro, NC for an additional $13.4 million in the third quarter of 2012. This purchase price will include the assumption of secured debt recorded at fair value of $7.9 million, with an estimated effective interest rate of 3.5%, including amortization of deferred financing costs. This assumed debt is scheduled to mature in August 2014.
On July 13, 2012, we sold five non-core office buildings in Nashville, TN for $41.0 million. We expect to record gain on disposition of discontinued operations of $6.8 million related to this disposition.
On July 25, 2012, we sold three GSA-leased buildings in Jackson, MS and Atlanta, GA for $86.5 million. We expect to record gain on disposition of discontinued operations of $14.0 million related to this disposition.
Recent Financing Activity
We have entered into separate ATM Equity OfferingSM Sales Agreements (the “Sales Agreements”) with each of Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Mitsubishi UFJ Securities (USA), Inc., Morgan Keegan & Company, Inc. and RBC Capital Markets, LLC (each, an “Agent” and, together, the “Agents”). Under the terms of the Sales Agreements, the Company may offer and sell shares of its Common Stock from time to time through the Agents, acting as agents of the Company or as principals. Sales of the shares, if any, may be made by means of ordinary brokers' transactions on the New York Stock Exchange or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices or as otherwise agreed with any of the Agents. Subject to the terms and conditions of each Sales Agreement, each Agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell on the Company's behalf any shares to be offered by the Company under that Sales Agreement. During the second quarter of 2012, the Company issued 1,836,976 shares of Common Stock under these agreements at an average gross sales price of $33.72 per share raising net proceeds, after sales commissions and expenses, of $61.0 million. We paid an aggregate of $0.9 million in sales commissions to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Mitsubishi UFJ Securities (USA), Inc. during the second quarter of 2012. In early July 2012, the Company issued 451,300 shares of Common Stock from sales in the first quarter of 2012 under these agreements at an average gross sales price of $33.52 per share raising net proceeds, after sales commissions and expenses, of $14.9 million. We paid $0.2 million in sales commissions to Mitsubishi UFJ Securities (USA), Inc. during July 2012.
Our $475.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility is scheduled to mature on July 27, 2015 and includes an accordion feature that allows for an additional $75.0 million of borrowing capacity subject to additional lender commitments. Assuming no defaults have occurred, we have an option to extend the maturity for an additional year. The interest rate at our current credit ratings is LIBOR plus 150 basis points and the annual facility fee is 35 basis points. The interest rate and facility fee are based on the higher of the publicly announced ratings from Moody's Investors Service or Standard & Poor's Ratings Services. We use our revolving credit facility for working capital purposes and for the short-term funding of our development and acquisition activity and, in certain instances, the repayment of other debt. Continuing ability to borrow under the revolving credit facility allows us to quickly capitalize on strategic opportunities at short-term interest rates. There was $75.5 million and $28.1 million outstanding under our revolving credit facility at June 30, 2012 and July 19, 2012, respectively. At both June 30, 2012 and July 19, 2012, we had $0.1 million of outstanding letters of credit, which reduces the availability on our revolving credit facility. As a result, the unused capacity of our revolving credit facility at June 30, 2012 and July 19, 2012 was $399.4 million and $446.8 million, respectively.
In the second quarter of 2012, we repurchased $12.1 million principal amount of unsecured notes due March 2017 bearing interest of 5.85% for a purchase price of 107.5% of par value. We recorded $1.0 million of loss on debt extinguishment related to this repurchase.
We regularly evaluate the financial condition of the lenders that participate in our credit facilities using publicly available information. Based on this review, we currently expect our lenders, which are major financial institutions, to perform their obligations under our existing facilities.
Covenant Compliance
We are currently in compliance with the covenants and other requirements with respect to our outstanding debt. Although we expect to remain in compliance with these covenants and ratios for at least the next year, depending upon our future operating
54
performance, property and financing transactions and general economic conditions, we cannot assure you that we will continue to be in compliance.
Our revolving credit facility and bank term loans require us to comply with customary operating covenants and various financial requirements. Upon an event of default on the revolving credit facility, the lenders having at least 66.7% of the total commitments under the revolving credit facility can accelerate all borrowings then outstanding, and we could be prohibited from borrowing any further amounts under our revolving credit facility, which would adversely affect our ability to fund our operations.
The Operating Partnership has $379.1 million carrying amount of 2017 bonds outstanding and $200.0 million carrying amount of 2018 bonds outstanding. The indenture that governs these outstanding notes requires us to comply with customary operating covenants and various financial ratios. The trustee or the holders of at least 25.0% in principal amount of either series of bonds can accelerate the principal amount of such series upon written notice of a default that remains uncured after 60 days.
We may not be able to repay, refinance or extend any or all of our debt at maturity or upon any acceleration. If any refinancing is done at higher interest rates, the increased interest expense could adversely affect our cash flow and ability to pay distributions. Any such refinancing could also impose tighter financial ratios and other covenants that restrict our ability to take actions that could otherwise be in our best interest, such as funding new development activity, making opportunistic acquisitions, repurchasing our securities or paying distributions.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
In 2011, we provided a $38.3 million interest-only secured loan to our DLF I joint venture that originally was scheduled to mature in March 2012. The loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 500 basis points. The maturity date of the loan has been extended to September 30, 2012. In the second quarter of 2012, we acquired an office property from the joint venture by reducing the balance of the advance due to us from the joint venture joint venture. We deferred our share of the gain recorded by the joint venture related to this transaction. We recorded interest income from this loan in interest and other income of $0.2 million and $0.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $0.7 million and $0.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
In the second quarter of 2012, our DLF II joint venture obtained a $50.0 million, three-year secured mortgage loan from a third party lender, bearing a fixed interest rate of 3.5% on $39.1 million of the loan and a floating interest rate of LIBOR plus 250 basis points on $10.9 million of the loan, which was used by the joint venture to repay a secured loan at maturity to a third party lender.
There were no other significant changes to our off balance sheet arrangements in the three months ended June 30, 2012. For information regarding our off balance sheet arrangements at December 31, 2011, see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Critical Accounting Estimates
There were no changes made by management to the critical accounting policies in the six months ended June 30, 2012. For a description of our critical accounting estimates, see “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Estimates” in our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Non-GAAP Measures - FFO and NOI
The Company believes that Funds from Operations (“FFO”) and FFO per share are beneficial to management and investors and are important indicators of the performance of any equity REIT. Because FFO and FFO per share calculations exclude such factors as depreciation, amortization and impairment of real estate assets and gains or losses from sales of operating real estate assets, which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates, they facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between other REITs. Management believes that historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient on a stand-alone basis. As a result, management believes that the use of FFO and FFO per share, together with the required GAAP presentations, provides a more complete understanding of the Company's performance relative to its competitors and a more informed and appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing and investing activities.
55
FFO and FFO per share are non-GAAP financial measures and therefore do not represent net income or net income per share as defined by GAAP. Net income and net income per share as defined by GAAP are the most relevant measures in determining the Company's operating performance because FFO and FFO per share include adjustments that investors may deem subjective, such as adding back expenses such as depreciation, amortization and impairment. Furthermore, FFO per share does not depict the amount that accrues directly to the stockholders' benefit. Accordingly, FFO and FFO per share should never be considered as alternatives to net income or net income per share as indicators of the Company's operating performance.
The Company's presentation of FFO is consistent with FFO as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), which is calculated as follows:
• | Net income/(loss) computed in accordance with GAAP; |
• | Less net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated affiliates; |
• | Plus depreciation and amortization of depreciable operating properties; |
• | Less gains, or plus losses, from sales of depreciable operating properties, plus impairments on depreciable operating properties and excluding items that are classified as extraordinary items under GAAP; |
• | Plus or minus our proportionate share of adjustments, including depreciation and amortization of depreciable operating properties, for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures (to reflect funds from operations on the same basis); and |
• | Plus or minus adjustments for depreciation and amortization and gains/(losses) on sales of depreciable operating properties, plus impairments on depreciable operating properties, and noncontrolling interests in consolidated affiliates related to discontinued operations. |
In calculating FFO, the Company excludes net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership, which the Company believes is consistent with standard industry practice for REITs that operate through an UPREIT structure. The Company believes that it is important to present FFO on an as-converted basis since all of the Common Units not owned by the Company are redeemable on a one-for-one basis for shares of its Common Stock.
The following table sets forth the Company's FFO and FFO per share ($ in thousands, except per share amounts):

In addition, the Company believes net operating income from continuing operations (“NOI”) and same property NOI are useful supplemental measures of the Company’s property operating performance because such metrics provide a performance measure of the revenues and expenses directly involved in owning real estate assets and provides a perspective not immediately apparent from net income or FFO. The Company defines NOI as rental and other revenues from continuing operations, less rental property and other expenses from continuing operations. The Company defines cash NOI as NOI less straight line rent and lease termination fees. Other REITs may use different methodologies to calculate NOI and same property NOI.
Our same property portfolio currently consists of 287 in-service office, industrial and retail properties encompassing 26.4 million square feet that were wholly owned during the entirety of the periods presented (from January 1, 2011 to June 30, 2012). In our most recent prior periodic report, our 2011 Annual Report, our same property portfolio consisted of 289 in-service office, industrial and retail properties encompassing 26.2 million square feet that were wholly owned during the entirety of the periods presented therein (from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2011). The change in our same property portfolio was due to the addition of one office property encompassing 0.3 million square feet acquired during 2010 and three newly developed office properties encompassing 0.5 million square feet placed in service during 2010, offset by the removal of six office properties encompassing 0.6 million square feet qualifying for discontinued operations during 2012.
Rental and other revenues related to properties not in our same property portfolio were $17.3 million and $4.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $33.8 million and $8.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Rental property and other expenses related to properties not in our same property portfolio were $8.3 million and $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $16.8 million and $5.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
