EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2017 of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P., a Maryland limited partnership. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references in this report to “we,” “us,” “our,” or “our Company” refer to Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries, including Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references to “our operating partnership” or “the operating partnership” refer to Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P. together with its consolidated subsidiaries.

Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. is a real estate investment trust, or REIT, and the sole general partner of our operating partnership. As of March 31, 2017, Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. owned approximately 99.6% of the outstanding common units of partnership interest (including unvested restricted units) in our operating partnership, or common units. The remaining approximately 0.4% of outstanding common units at March 31, 2017 were owned by certain of our executive officers and directors, certain of their affiliates, and other outside investors. As of December 31, 2016, certain affiliates of Blackstone Group L.P. (“Blackstone”) and Farallon Capital Management, LLC (“Farallon Funds”) held an ownership interest in the Company and the operating partnership. Following a common stock offering and a common unit repurchase on January 10, 2017, Blackstone and Farallon Funds informed us that they no longer owned common stock or common units in the Company or the operating partnership. As the sole general partner of our operating partnership, Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. has the full, exclusive and complete responsibility for our operating partnership’s day-to-day management and control.

We believe combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and the operating partnership into this single report results in the following benefits:


•	enhancing investors’ understanding of our Company and our operating partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;


•	eliminating duplicative disclosure and providing a more streamlined and readable presentation because a substantial portion of the disclosure applies to both our Company and our operating partnership; and


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

There are a few differences between our Company and our operating partnership, which are reflected in the disclosures in this report. We believe it is important to understand the differences between our Company and our operating partnership in the context of how we operate as an interrelated, consolidated company. Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. is a REIT, the only material assets of which are the units of partnership interest in our operating partnership. As a result, Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole general partner of our operating partnership, issuing equity from time to time and guaranteeing certain debt of our operating partnership. Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. itself does not issue any indebtedness but guarantees some of the debt of our operating partnership. Our operating partnership, which is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity, holds substantially all of the assets of our Company and conducts substantially all of our business. Except for net proceeds from equity issuances by Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc., which are generally contributed to our operating partnership in exchange for units of partnership interest in our operating partnership, our operating partnership generates the capital required by our Company’s business through its operations, its incurrence of indebtedness or through the issuance of units of partnership interest in our operating partnership.

Non-controlling interest, stockholders’ equity and partners’ capital are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of our Company and those of our operating partnership. The common units in our operating partnership are accounted for as partners’ capital in our operating partnership’s consolidated financial statements and, to the extent not held by our Company, as a non-controlling interest in our Company’s consolidated financial statements. The differences between stockholders’ equity, partners’ capital and non-controlling interest result from the differences in the equity issued by our Company and our operating partnership.

To help investors understand the significant differences between our Company and our operating partnership, this report presents the consolidated financial statements separately for our Company and our operating partnership. All other sections of this report, including “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” are presented together for our Company and our operating partnership.

In order to establish that the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of each entity have made the requisite certifications and that our Company and our operating partnership are compliant with Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act and 18 U.S.C. §1350, this report also includes separate Part I, Item 4 “Controls and Procedures” sections and separate Exhibit 31 and 32 certifications for each of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and our operating partnership.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited, tabular amounts in thousands, except square footage, share and unit data)

1. Organization

Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. is a Maryland corporation formed on November 9, 2009 that did not have any meaningful operating activity until the consummation of its initial public offering and the related acquisition of its predecessor and certain other entities on June 29, 2010 (“IPO”). Since the completion of the IPO, the concurrent private placement, and the related formation transactions, Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. has been a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”). Through its controlling interest in the operating partnership and its subsidiaries, Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. owns, manages, leases, acquires and develops real estate, consisting primarily of office and media and entertainment properties. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references in these financial statements to the “Company” refer to Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries, including Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references to the “our operating partnership” or “the operating partnership” refer to Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P. together with its consolidated subsidiaries.

On April 1, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of the EOP Northern California Portfolio (“EOP Acquisition”) from Blackstone Real Estate Partners V and VI (“Blackstone”). The EOP Acquisition consisted of 26 high-quality office assets totaling approximately 8.2 million square feet and two development parcels located throughout the San Francisco Peninsula, Redwood Shores, Palo Alto, Silicon Valley and North San Jose submarkets. The total consideration paid for the EOP Acquisition before certain credits, prorations, and closing costs included a cash payment of $1.75 billion and an aggregate of 63,474,791 shares of common stock of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and common units in the operating partnership.

As of March 31, 2017, the Company owned a portfolio of 52 office properties and two media and entertainment properties. These properties are located throughout Northern and Southern California and the Pacific Northwest.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company and the operating partnership are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) applicable to interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and footnote disclosures required for annual financial statements have been condensed or excluded pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, the interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature that are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented.

The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2017. The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in the 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P. and the notes thereto.

Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements for the prior period have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Specifically, in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for the prior period, certain amounts have been reclassified to held for sale. These amounts relate to 3402 Pico Boulevard, which was sold on March 21, 2017.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company, the operating partnership and all wholly owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIEs”), of which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the operating partnership include the accounts of the operating partnership, and all wholly owned subsidiaries and VIEs of which the operating partnership is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

(Unaudited, tabular amounts in thousands, except square footage and share data)

The Company consolidates all VIEs of which the Company is considered the primary beneficiary. VIEs are defined as entities in which equity investors (i) do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest and/or (ii) do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. The entity that consolidates a VIE is known as its primary beneficiary and is generally the entity with (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance and (ii) the right to receive benefits from the VIE or the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. Four of the Company’s joint ventures and its operating partnership meet the definition of a VIE. The Company is the primary beneficiary of and consolidates three of the joint ventures and the operating partnership. Refer to Note 16 for details. Substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the Company are related to these VIEs. The Company is not consolidating one of its joint ventures, of which it is not the primary beneficiary, and an interest in land. Due to its significant influence over these entities, the Company accounts for them using the equity method of accounting. Refer to Note 7 for details.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of commitments and contingencies at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to acquiring, developing and assessing the carrying values of its real estate properties, its accrued liabilities and its performance-based equity compensation awards. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, current market conditions and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Changes to GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) in the form of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”). The following ASUs were adopted by the Company in the first quarter of 2017:



Standard	Description	Effect on the financial statements or other significant matters
ASU 2017-03, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (Topic 250) and Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to Staff Announcements at the September 22, 2016 and November 17, 2016 EITF Meetings (SEC Update)	The guidance in this ASU is based on two SEC staff announcements made at the September 2016 and November 2016 EITF meetings. In the September meeting, the SEC announced that a registrant should disclose the potential material effects of the ASUs related to revenues, leases and credit losses on financial instruments. As a result of the November meeting, the ASU conforms Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 323 to the guidance issued in ASU 2014-01 related to investments in qualified affordable housing projects.	With the adoption of this guidance, the Company is required to provide updates on its implementation of the ASUs related to revenue, leases and credit losses on financial instruments. Please refer to the table below for updates on the revenue and lease ASUs. The credit losses on financial instruments ASU is not anticipated to have a material impact on the Company.
ASU 2016-19, Technical Corrections and Improvements	The technical corrections make minor change to certain aspects of the FASB ASC, including changes to resolve differences between current and pre-Codification guidance, updates to wording, references to avoid misapplication and textual simplifications to increase the Codification’s utility and understandability and minor amendments to guidance that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative cost to most entities.	The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-17, Consolidation (Topic 810): Interests Held through Related Parties That Are under Common Control	This guidance outlines how a single decisionmaker of a VIE should treat indirect interests held through other related parties that are under common control with the reporting entity when determining whether it is the primary beneficiary of that VIE.	The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and did not change the consolidation conclusion.
ASU 2016-07, Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting	The guidance eliminates the requirement that an investor retrospectively apply equity method accounting when an investment that it had accounted for by another method initially qualifies for use of the equity method. The guidance also requires an investor that has an available-for-sale security that subsequently qualifies for the equity method to recognize in net income the unrealized holding gains or losses in accumulated other comprehensive income related to that security when it begins applying the equity method.	The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-05, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), Effect of Derivative Contract Novations on Existing Hedge Accounting Relationships	The guidance states that the novation of a derivative contract (e.g., a change in the counterparty) in a hedge accounting relationship does not, in and of itself, require dedesignation of that hedge accounting relationship. The hedge accounting relationship could continue uninterrupted if all of the other hedge accounting criteria are met, including the expectation that the hedge will be highly effective when the creditworthiness of the new counterparty to the derivative contract is considered.	The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

(Unaudited, tabular amounts in thousands, except square footage and share data)

As required by ASU 2017-03, the Company is providing updates to the revenue and lease standard on a quarterly basis, as follows:



Standard	Description	Effect on the financial statements or other significant matters
ASU related to Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)	The new revenue standard was amended through various ASU’s. The ASU’s that impact the Company are ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) and ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2016-08 clarifies certain aspects of the principal-versus-agent guidance in its new revenue recognition standard related to the determination of whether an entity is a principal-versus-agent and the determination of the nature of each specified good or service. ASU 2014-09 outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenues arising from contracts with customers and specifically notes that lease contracts with customers are a scope exception.	The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material effect on revenue recognition as it relates to its leasing contracts until the adoption of ASU 2016-02, at which time the standard may affect revenue recognition as it relates to certain non-lease revenue components that are part of its leasing contracts. The Company has formed an implementation work team, completed training of the new standards with the implementation team, and begun review and documentation. The Company is currently evaluating this standard as it relates to media and entertainment other property-related revenue. The Company has the option of adopting this standard on either the full retrospective basis (to the beginning of its contracts) or modified retrospective method (from the beginning of the latest fiscal year of adoption). The Company plans on adopting the standard January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method.
ASU 2016-02, Leases	This guidance requires all lessees to record a lease liability at lease inception, with a corresponding right of use asset, except for short-term leases. Lessor accounting will not be fundamentally changed.	The Company has formed an implementation work team, completed training of the new standards with the implementation team, and begun review and documentation. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the amount of assets and liabilities relating to right of use that will need to be recorded with respect to its leases where it is the lessee. Additionally, the standard will impact the way the Company will record revenue and leasing costs where it is the lessor. For leasing costs, the Company will no longer be able to capitalize internal leasing costs to the extent they are not directly attributable to the lease transaction. Accordingly, the Company anticipates that internal leasing costs will be expensed with the adoption of this standard. With respect to the lease revenue, the Company will need to break down its current revenue streams between leasing and non-leasing components. To the extent there are non-leasing components the Company will need to record them in accordance with ASC 606 (see above). The Company is still in the process of evaluating its existing leasing components to determine what effect, if any, this standard will have on its revenue recognition as it relates to its leases. The Company will adopt the standard using the retrospective method from the beginning of the first year presented on the consolidated statement of operations which is January 1, 2017.

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs. The following table lists the recently issued ASUs that have not been disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and have not been adopted by the Company. The list excludes those ASUs that are expected to have an immaterial impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

3. Investment in Real Estate

Acquisitions

The Company’s acquisitions are accounted for using the acquisition method. The results of operations for each of these acquisitions are included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations from the date of acquisition.

The Company assesses fair value based on Level 2 and Level 3 inputs within the fair value framework, which includes estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount, capitalization rates, renewal probability and available market information, which includes market rental rate and market rent growth rates. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors, including historical operating results, known and anticipated trends, and market and economic conditions.

The fair value of tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it was vacant. The fair value of acquired “above- and below-” market leases are based on the estimated cash flow projections utilizing discount rates that reflect the risks associated with the leases acquired. The amount recorded is based on the present value of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the extended below-market term for any leases with below-market renewal options. Other intangible assets acquired include amounts for in-place lease values that are based on the Company’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease. Factors considered include estimates of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods, market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, the Company includes estimates of lost rents at market rates during the hypothetical expected lease-up periods, which are dependent on local market conditions. In estimating costs to execute similar leases, the Company considers leasing commissions, and legal and other related costs.

The Company had no acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 2017.

On May 1, 2017, the Company completed its acquisition of Sunset Las Palmas Studios (formerly Hollywood Center Studios) located in Hollywood, California. See Note 19 for details.

7. Investment in Unconsolidated Entities

Investment in unconsolidated real estate in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence (but not control) is accounted for under the equity method of investment. Under the equity method, the Company initially records the investment at cost, and subsequently adjusts for equity in earnings or losses and cash contributions and distributions. The Company’s net equity investment is reflected within investment in unconsolidated entities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and the Company’s share of net income or loss from the entity is included within other (income) expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

On June 16, 2016, the Company entered into a joint venture to co-originate a loan secured by land in Santa Clara, California. The Company holds a 21% interest in the joint venture. The assets of the joint venture consist of the notes receivable. The Company’s investment in this joint venture was $30.7 million and $29.4 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, which represents the maximum exposure for loss for the Company. The joint venture meets the criteria of a VIE and the Company accounts for this investment under the equity method of accounting since the Company is not the primary beneficiary.

On July 1, 2016, the Company entered into an agreement with an unaffiliated third party related to the land on which its 11601 Wilshire property is located. The Company holds a 28% interest in the land. The agreement does not meet the definition of a VIE and the Company accounts for its interest in the land under the equity method of accounting. The Company’s interest in the land was $7.8 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. On December 27, 2016, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase the remaining interest in the land for $50.0 million (before credits, prorations and closing costs). The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2017, however there can be no guaranty that it will close as expected.

8. Goodwill

The Company’s goodwill balance as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $8.8 million. The Company does not amortize this asset but instead analyzes it on a quarterly basis for impairment. No impairment indicators have been noted during the three months ended March 31, 2017.

9. Notes Payable, net

Indebtedness

The Company presents its financial statements on a consolidated basis. Notwithstanding such presentation, except to the extent expressly indicated, such as in the case of the project financing for Sunset Gower Studios and Sunset Bronson Studios, the Company’s separate property-owning subsidiaries are not obligors of or under the debt of their respective affiliates and each property-owning subsidiary’s separate liabilities do not constitute obligations of its respective affiliates.

Loan agreements include events of default that the Company believes are usual for loan and transactions of this type. As of the date of this filing, there have been no events of default associated with the Company’s loans.

The following table summarizes the minimum future principal payments due (before the impact of extension options, if applicable) on the operating partnership’s secured and unsecured notes payable as of March 31, 2017:



Year	Annual Principal Payments
Remaining 2017	$	2,071
2018	101,157
2019	7,886

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility

The operating partnership’s unsecured revolving credit facility is amended from time to time. The terms of the arrangement are more fully described in the Company’s 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Under the unsecured revolving credit facility, as amended and restated to date (“Amended and Restated Credit Facility”), the Company has $400.0 million of total capacity. The maturity date of April 1, 2019 can be extended with a one-year extension option. The Company uses the unsecured revolving credit facility to finance the acquisition of other properties, to provide funds for tenant improvements and capital expenditures, and to provide for working capital and other corporate purposes.

Interest on the Amended and Restated Credit Facility is generally based upon, at our option, either (i) LIBOR plus the applicable LIBOR margin or (ii) a specified base rate plus the applicable base rate margin, dependent on the operating partnership’s leverage ratio. The applicable LIBOR margin will range from 1.15% to 1.85% for the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, 1.30% to 2.20% for the 5-Year Term Loan due April 2020, depending on the operating partnership’s leverage ratio and 1.60% to 2.55% for the 7-Year Term Loan due April 2022, depending on the operating partnership’s leverage ratio. The Amended and Restated Credit Facility requires a facility fee in an amount equal to 0.20% or 0.35% of the operating partnership’s revolving credit commitments depending on the operating partnership’s leverage ratio. Unused amounts under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility are not subject to a separate fee.

Subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and lender commitments, the operating partnership may increase the availability of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility so long as the aggregate commitments under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility do not exceed $2.0 billion.

If the Company obtains a credit rating for the Company’s senior unsecured long-term indebtedness, the operating partnership may make an irrevocable election to change the interest rate and facility fee. During 2016, the Company’s senior unsecured long-term indebtedness was assigned an investment grade rating. The Company has not made the credit rating election.

The operating partnership continues to be the borrower under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, and the Company and all subsidiaries that own unencumbered properties will continue to provide guarantees unless the Company obtains and maintains a credit rating of at least BBB- from S&P or Baa3 from Moody’s, in which case such guarantees are not required except under limited circumstances.

Debt Covenants

The operating partnership’s ability to borrow under its unsecured loan arrangements remains subject to ongoing compliance with financial and other covenants as defined in the respective agreements, including, when considering the most restrictive terms, maintaining a leverage ratio (maximum of 0.60:1.00), unencumbered leverage ratio (maximum of 0.60:1.00), fixed charge coverage ratio (minimum of 1.50:1.00), secured indebtedness leverage ratio (maximum of 0.45:1.00), and unsecured interest coverage ratio (minimum 2.00:1.00). Certain financial covenant ratios are subject to change in the occurrence of material acquisitions as defined in the respective agreements. Other covenants include certain limitations on dividend payouts and distributions, limits on certain types of investments outside of the operating partnership’s primary business, and other customary affirmative and negative covenants.

The operating partnership was in compliance with its financial covenants as of March 31, 2017.

Repayment Guaranties

Sunset Gower Studios and Sunset Bronson Studios Loan

In connection with the loan secured by the Sunset Gower Studios and Sunset Bronson Studios properties, the Company has guaranteed in favor of and promised to pay to the lender 19.5% of the principal payable under the loan in the event the borrower, a wholly-owned entity of the operating partnership, does not do so. As of March 31, 2017, the outstanding balance was $5.0 million, which results in a maximum guarantee amount for the principal under this loan of $1.0 million. Furthermore, the Company agreed to guarantee the completion of the construction improvements, including tenant improvements, as defined in the agreement, in the event of any default of the borrower. If the borrower fails to complete the remaining required work, the guarantor agrees to perform timely all of the completion obligations, as defined in the agreement. As of the date of this filing, there has been no event of default associated with this loan.

Other Loans

Although the rest of the operating partnership’s loans are secured and non-recourse, the operating partnership provides limited customary secured debt guarantees for items such as voluntary bankruptcy, fraud, misapplication of payments and environmental liabilities.

10. Derivative Instruments

The Company enters into derivative instruments in order to hedge interest rate risk. The Company had six interest rate swaps with aggregate notional amounts of $839.5 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. These derivative instruments were designated as effective cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. There is no impact on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

The Company’s derivative instruments are classified as Level 2 and their fair values are derived from estimated values obtained from observable market data for similar instruments.

5-Year Term Loan due April 2020 and 7-Year Term Loan due April 2022

On April 1, 2015, the Company effectively hedged $300.0 million of the 5-Year Term Loan due April 2020 through two interest rate swaps, each with a notional amount of $150.0 million, which, effective as of May 1, 2015, swapped one-month LIBOR to a fixed rate of 1.36% through the loan’s maturity. Therefore the interest rate is effectively fixed at 2.66% to 3.56%, depending on the Company’s leverage ratio. The unhedged portion bears interest at a rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 1.30% to 2.20%, depending on the Company’s leverage ratio.

The Company also effectively hedged its $350.0 million 7-Year Term Loan due April 2022 through two interest rate swaps, which, effective as of May 1, 2015, swapped one-month LIBOR to a fixed rate of 1.61% through the loan’s maturity. Therefore the interest rate is effectively fixed at 3.21% to 4.16% depending on the Company’s leverage ratio.

Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

(Unaudited, tabular amounts in thousands, except square footage and share data)

In July 2016, the derivative instruments described above were amended to include a 0.00% floor to one-month LIBOR, and then de-designated the original swap and designated the amended swap as a hedge in order to minimize the ineffective portion of the original derivative instruments. Therefore, the effective interest rate increased to a range of 2.75% to 3.65% with respect to $300.0 million of the 5-Year Term Loan due April 2020 and 3.36% to 4.31% with respect to the 7-year Term Loan due April 2022, in each case, per annum. The interest rate within the range is based on the operating partnership’s leverage ratio. The amount included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) prior to the de-designation is amortized into interest expense over the remaining original terms of the derivative instruments.

The Company recognized an unrealized gain of $6 thousand and an unrealized loss of $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, on the Consolidated Statement of Operations related to the ineffective portion of these derivative instruments.

7-Year Term Loan due November 2022

On May 3, 2016, the Company entered into a derivative instrument with respect to $125.0 million of the 7-Year Term Loan due November 2022. This derivative instrument became effective on June 1, 2016 and swapped one-month LIBOR, which includes a 0.00% floor, to a fixed rate of 1.43% through the loan’s maturity.

Met Park North

On July 31, 2013, the Company closed a seven-year loan totaling $64.5 million with Union Bank, N.A., secured by the Met Park North property. The loan bears interest at a rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 1.55%. The full loan is subject to an interest rate contract that swaps one-month LIBOR to a fixed rate of 2.16% through the loan’s maturity on August 1, 2020.

Overall

The fair market value of derivative instruments is presented on a gross basis in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The derivative assets as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were $8.6 million and $5.9 million, respectively. The derivative liabilities as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were $1.0 million and $1.3 million, respectively.

The Company reclassifies into earnings in the same period during which the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. As of March 31, 2017, the Company expects $3.0 million of unrealized loss included in accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified to interest expense in the next 12 months.

11. Income Taxes

Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2010. Provided that it continues to qualify for taxation as a REIT, Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. is generally not subject to corporate level income tax on the earnings distributed currently to its stockholders. The Company has elected, together with one of its subsidiaries, to treat such subsidiary as a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) for federal income tax purposes.

The Company’s property-owning subsidiaries are limited liability companies and are treated as pass-through entities or disregarded entities (or, in the case of the entities that own the 1455 Market Street and Hill7 properties, REITs) for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the activities of these entities.

The Company periodically evaluates its tax positions to determine whether it is more likely than not that such positions would be sustained upon examination by a tax authority for all open tax years, as defined by the statute of limitations, based on their technical merits. As of March 31, 2017, the Company has not established a liability for uncertain tax positions.

The Company and its TRS file income tax returns with the U.S. federal government and various state and local jurisdictions. The Company and its TRS are no longer subject to tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2012. Generally, the Company has assessed its tax positions for all open years, which include 2012 to 2016, and concluded that there are no material uncertainties to be recognized.

Property	Expiration Date	Notes
11601 Wilshire	10/31/2064	Subject to a $50 thousand increase every 5 years. Commencing on August 1, 2026, minimum rent is adjusted to reflect changes in Consumer Price Index (“CPI”). On December 27, 2016, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase the land related to this ground lease for $50.0 million (before credits, prorations and closing costs). The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2017, however there can be no guaranty that it will close as expected.
3400 Hillview	10/31/2040	The ground rent is the greater of the minimum annual rent or percentage annual rent. The minimum annual rent until October 31, 2017 is the lesser of 10% of Fair Market Value (“FMV”) of the land or $1.0 million grown at 75% of the cumulative increases in CPI from October 1989. Thereafter, minimum annual rent is the lesser of 10% of FMV of the land or the minimum annual rent as calculated as of November 1, 2017 plus 75% of subsequent cumulative CPI changes. Percentage annual rent is gross income multiplied by 24.125%. This lease has been prepaid through October 31, 2017.

(1)	In situations where ground lease obligation adjustments are based on third-party appraisals of fair market land value, CPI adjustments, and/or percentage of gross income that exceeds the minimum annual rent, the future minimum lease amounts above include the lease rental obligations in effect as of March 31, 2017.


(2)	Balance includes future minimum ground lease obligation for 11601 Wilshire. On December 27, 2016, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase the land related to the 11601 Wilshire ground lease. This transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2017, however, there can be no guaranty that the transaction will close.

13. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The GAAP fair value framework uses a three-tiered approach. Fair value measurements are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:


•	Level 1: unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities;


•	Level 2: quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and


•	Level 3: prices or valuation techniques where little or no market data is available that requires inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

The Company measures fair value of financial instruments using Level 2 inputs categorized within the fair value framework. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis include the following as of:



	March 31, 2017								December 31, 2016
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Derivative assets	$	—	$	8,558	$	—	$	8,558	$	—	$	5,935	$	—	$	5,935
Derivative liabilities	—		967		—		967		—		1,303		—		1,303

Other Financial Instruments

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are reasonable estimates of fair value, using Level 1 inputs, because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Fair values for notes payable are estimates based on rates currently prevailing for similar instruments of similar maturities using Level 2 inputs. The table below represents the carrying value and fair value of the Company’s notes payable as of:



	March 31, 2017				December 31, 2016
	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value
Notes payable⁽¹⁾	$	2,407,196	$	2,381,057	$	2,707,839	$	2,681,134

14. Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has various stock compensation arrangements, which are more fully described in the 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Under the 2010 Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2010 Plan”), the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) has the ability to grant, among other things, restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance-based awards.

The Board awards restricted shares to non-employee board members on an annual basis as part of such board members’ annual compensation and to newly elected non-employee board members in accordance with the Board compensation program. The time-based awards are generally issued in the second quarter, and the individual share awards vest in equal annual installments over the applicable service vesting period, which is three years.

The Board awards time-based restricted shares to employees on an annual basis as part of the employees’ annual compensation. The time-based awards are generally issued in the fourth quarter, and the individual share awards vest in equal annual installments over the applicable service vesting period, which is generally three years. Additionally, certain restricted share awards are subject to a mandatory holding period upon vesting if the grantee is a named executive officer.

In December 2015, the Compensation Committee of the Board awarded a one-time special retention award to certain executives. The grants consist of time-based awards and performance-based awards. The time-based awards vest in equal 25% installments over four years, subject to the participant’s continued employment. The performance-based awards vest over a four-year period, subject to the achievement of applicable performance goals and the participant’s continued employment.

The Compensation Committee of the Board annually adopts a Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. Outperformance Program (“OPP Plan”) under the 2010 Plan. An award under the OPP Plan is ultimately earned to the extent the Company outperforms a predetermined total shareholder return (“TSR”) goal and/or achieves goals with respect to the outperformance of its peers in a particular REIT index. The ultimate aggregate award cannot exceed the predetermined maximum bonus pool. With respect to OPP Plan awards granted prior to 2017, to the extent an award is earned following the completion of a three-year performance period, 50% of the earned award will vest in full at the end of the three-year performance period and 25% of the earned award will vest in equal annual installments over the two years thereafter, subject to the participant’s continued employment. OPP Plan awards granted are settled in common stock and in the case of certain executives, awards are settled in performance units in the operating partnership. In February 2017, the Compensation Committee adopted the 2017 OPP Plan. The 2017 OPP Plan is substantially similar to the previous OPP Plans except for (i) the performance period is January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2019 (ii) the maximum bonus pool is $20.0 million and (iii) the two -year post-performance vesting period was replaced with a two-year mandatory holding period upon vesting.

The per unit fair value of 2017 OPP award granted was estimated on the date of grant using the following assumptions in the Monte Carlo valuation:



Expected price volatility for the Company	24.00%
Expected price volatility for the particular REIT index	17.00%
Risk-free rate	1.47%
Dividend yield	2.30%

The following table presents the classification and amount recognized for stock-based compensation related to the Company’s awards:



	Three Months Ended March 31,				Consolidated Financial Statement Classification
	2017		2016		Consolidated Financial Statement Classification
Expensed stock compensation	$	3,902	$	3,342	General and administrative expenses
Capitalized stock compensation	199		82		Deferred leasing costs and lease intangibles, net and tenant improvements
Total stock compensation	$	4,101	$	3,424	Additional paid-in capital and non-controlling interest—units in the operating partnership

15. Earnings Per Share

The Company calculates basic earnings per share by dividing the net income available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The Company calculates diluted earnings per share by dividing the diluted net income available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive instruments outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method or the if-converted method, whichever is more dilutive. Unvested time-based RSUs and unvested OPP awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends are participating securities and are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The following table reconciles the numerator and denominator in computing the Company’s basic and diluted earnings per share for net income available to common stockholders:

Diluted earnings per common share	$	0.14		$	0.03

________________


(1)	The Company includes unvested awards and convertible common units as contingently issuable shares in the computation of diluted earnings per share once the market criteria are met, assuming that the end of the reporting period is the end of the contingency period. Any anti-dilutive securities are excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation.

Non-controlling Interests

Common units in the operating partnership

Common units of the operating partnership and shares of common stock of the Company have essentially the same economic characteristics, as they share equally in the total net income or loss distributions of the operating partnership. Investors who own common units have the right to cause the operating partnership to repurchase any or all of their common units for cash equal to the then-current market value of one share of common stock or, at the Company’s election, issue shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for common units on a one-for-one basis. There were 569,045 and 9,450,620 common units outstanding as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. On January 10, 2017, common unitholders required the operating partnership to repurchase 8,881,575 common units and the Company elected, in accordance with the limited partnership agreement of the operating partnership, to settle in cash to satisfy the repurchase. The Company funded the repurchase using the proceeds from a registered underwritten public offering of common stock.

Performance units are partnership interests in the operating partnership. Each performance unit awarded will be deemed equivalent to an award of one unit of common stock under the 2010 Plan, reducing the availability for other equity awards on a one-for-one basis. Under the terms of the performance units, the operating partnership will revalue its assets for tax purposes upon the occurrence of certain specified events, and any increase in valuation from the time of grant until such event will be allocated first to the holders of performance units to equalize the capital accounts of such holders with the capital accounts of common unitholders. Subject to any agreed upon exceptions, once vested and having achieved parity with common unitholders, performance units are convertible into common units in the operating partnership on a one-for-one basis.

The operating partnership meets the criteria of a VIE and the Company is the primary beneficiary of the operating partnership.

Non-controlling interest—members in consolidated entities

The Company has an interest in a joint venture with Media Center Partners, LLC (the “Pinnacle JV”). The Pinnacle JV owns the Pinnacle, a two-building (Pinnacle I and Pinnacle II), 625,640-square-foot office property located in Burbank, California. The Company initially owned a 98.25% interest in the Pinnacle JV. Beginning June 2013, the Company owns a 65% interest in the Pinnacle JV.

In January 2015, the Company entered into a joint venture with Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, (“CPPIB”) through which CPPIB purchased a 45% interest in the 1455 Market Street office property located in San Francisco, California, for a purchase price of $219.2 million (before certain credits, proration and closing costs). The Company owns a 55% interest in the 1455 Market Street office property.

In October 2016, the Company entered into another joint venture with CPPIB to purchase the Hill7 office property located in Seattle, Washington for a purchase price of $179.8 million (before credits, prorations and closing costs). The Company owns a 55% interest in the Hill7 office property.

These joint ventures, of which the Company is the primary beneficiary, meet the criteria of a VIE.

6.25% Series A cumulative redeemable preferred units of the operating partnership

6.25% Series A cumulative redeemable preferred units of the operating partnership are 407,066 Series A preferred units of partnership interest in the operating partnership, or Series A preferred units, which are not owned by the Company. These Series A preferred units are entitled to preferential distributions at a rate of 6.25% per annum on the liquidation preference of $25.00 per unit and became convertible at the option of the holder into common units or redeemable into cash or, at the Company’s election, exchangeable for registered shares of common stock, after June 29, 2013. For a description of the conversion and redemption rights of the Series A preferred units, please see “Description of the Partnership Agreement of Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.—Material Terms of Our Series A Preferred Units” in the Company’s June 23, 2010 Prospectus.

Taxability of Dividends

Earnings and profits, which determine the taxability of distributions to stockholders, may differ from income reported for financial reporting purposes due to the differences for federal income tax purposes in the treatment of loss on extinguishment of debt, revenue recognition, and compensation expense and in the basis of depreciable assets and estimated useful lives used to compute depreciation.

17. Related Party Transactions

Agreements Related to EOP Acquisition

On April 1, 2015, the Company completed the EOP Acquisition from certain affiliates of Blackstone, which consisted of 26 high-quality office assets totaling approximately 8.2 million square feet and two development parcels located throughout the San Francisco Peninsula, Redwood Shores, Palo Alto, Silicon Valley and North San Jose submarkets. The total consideration paid for the EOP Acquisition before certain credits, prorations and closing costs included a cash payment of $1.75 billion and an aggregate of 63,474,791 shares of common stock of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and common units in the operating partnership. In connection with the EOP Acquisition, the Company, the operating partnership and Blackstone entered into a stockholders agreement, which conferred Blackstone certain rights, including the right to nominate up to three of the Company’s directors. Additionally, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement with Blackstone providing for customary registration rights with respect to the equity consideration paid in the EOP Acquisition.

Common Stock Offerings and Common Unit Redemptions

On January 10, 2017, the Company, Blackstone and the Farallon Funds completed a public offering of 18,673,808 shares of common stock, consisting of 8,881,575 shares offered by the Company and 9,792,233 shares offered by the selling stockholders.

18. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal

From time to time, the Company is party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings arising out of, or incident to, the ordinary course of business. Management believes, based in part upon consultation with legal counsel, that the ultimate resolution of all such claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. As of March 31, 2017, the risk of material loss from such legal actions impacting the Company’s financial condition or results from operations has been assessed as remote.

Concentrations

As of March 31, 2017, the majority of the Company’s properties were located in California, which exposes the Company to greater economic risks than if it owned a more geographically dispersed portfolio.

A significant portion of the Company’s rental revenue is derived from tenants in the media and entertainment and technology industries. As of March 31, 2017, approximately 15.8% and 28.5% of rentable square feet were related to the media and entertainment and technology industries, respectively.

As of March 31, 2017, the Company’s 15 largest tenants represented approximately 23.4% of its rentable square feet and no single tenant accounted for more than 10%.

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

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain written and oral statements made or incorporated by reference from time to time by us or our representatives in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, other filings or reports filed with the SEC, press releases, conferences, or otherwise, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (set forth in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, as amended, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act). In particular, statements relating to our liquidity and capital resources, portfolio performance and results of operations contain forward-looking statements. Furthermore, all of the statements regarding future financial performance (including anticipated funds from operations, or FFO, market conditions and demographics) are forward-looking statements. We are including this cautionary statement to make applicable and take advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for any such forward-looking statements. We caution investors that any forward-looking statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, or that management may make orally or in writing from time to time, are based on management’s beliefs and assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management. When used, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “estimate,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “result” and similar expressions that do not relate solely to historical matters are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions and may be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties and factors that are beyond our control. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to update forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Accordingly, investors should use caution in relying on past forward-looking statements, which were based on results and trends at the time they were made, to anticipate future results or trends. Additional information concerning these and other risks and uncertainties is contained in our other periodic filings with the SEC.

Some of the risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance, liquidity or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include, among others, the following:


•	adverse economic or real estate developments in our target markets;


•	general economic conditions;


•	defaults on, early terminations of or non-renewal of leases by tenants;


•	fluctuations in interest rates and increased operating costs;


•	our failure to obtain necessary outside financing or maintain an investment grade rating;


•	our failure to generate sufficient cash flows to service our outstanding indebtedness and maintain dividend payments;


•	lack or insufficient amounts of insurance;


•	decreased rental rates or increased vacancy rates;


•	difficulties in identifying properties to acquire and completing acquisitions;


•	our failure to successfully operate acquired properties and operations;


•	our failure to maintain our status as a REIT;


•	environmental uncertainties and risks related to adverse weather conditions and natural disasters;


•	financial market fluctuations;


•	risks related to acquisitions generally, including the diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business operations and the impact on customers, tenants, lenders, operating results and business;


•	the inability to successfully integrate acquired properties, realize the anticipated benefits of acquisitions or capitalize on value creation opportunities;


•	changes in real estate and zoning laws and increases in real property tax rates; and


•	other factors affecting the real estate industry generally.

Additionally, we operate in a highly competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors, nor can it assess the impact of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results.

All amounts and percentages used in this discussion of our results of operations are calculated using the numbers presented in the financial statements contained in Part I, Item I of this Quarterly Report rather than the rounded numbers appearing in this discussion. The dollar amounts included in the tables in this discussion of our results of operations are presented in thousands.

Comparison of the three months ended March 31, 2017 to the three months ended March 31, 2016

Net Operating Income

We evaluate performance based upon property net operating income (“NOI”) from continuing operations. NOI is not a measure of operating results or cash flows from operating activities or cash flows as measured by GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to income from continuing operations, as an indication of our performance, or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity, or our ability to make distributions. All companies may not calculate NOI in the same manner. We consider NOI to be a useful performance measure to investors and management, because when compared across periods, NOI reflects the revenues and expenses directly associated with owning and operating our properties and the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs, providing a perspective not immediately apparent from income from continuing operations. We calculate NOI as net income (loss) excluding corporate general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, impairments, gains/losses on sales of real estate, interest expense, acquisition-related expenses and other non-operating items. We define NOI as operating revenues (including rental revenues, other property-related revenue, tenant recoveries and other operating revenues), less property-level operating expenses (which includes external management fees, if any, and property-level general and administrative expenses). NOI on a cash basis is NOI on a GAAP basis, adjusted to exclude the effect of straight-line rent and other non-cash adjustments required by GAAP. We believe that NOI on a cash basis is helpful to investors as an additional measure of operating performance because it eliminates straight-line rent and other non-cash adjustments to revenue and expenses.

Management further analyzes NOI by evaluating the performance from the following property groups:


•	Same-Store Properties—which includes all of the properties owned and included in our stabilized portfolio as of January 1, 2016 and still owned and included in the stabilized portfolio as of March 31, 2017;


•	Non-Same-Store properties, development projects, redevelopment properties and lease-up properties as of March 31, 2017 and other properties not owned or not in operation from January 1, 2016 through March 31, 2017.

NOI increased $13.2 million, or 13.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2016, primarily resulting from:

•

A $3.7 million, or 5.4%, increase in NOI from our Same-Store office properties resulting primarily from increased rental income relating to leases signed at our 1455 Market Street (Uber Technologies, Inc. and Vevo), 625 Second Street (Github and Blue Jeans) and Skyport Plaza (Qualcomm) properties at a higher rate than expiring leases, partially offset by a reduction in rental income at our Towers at Shore Center property due to a lease renewal at market rates lower than expiring rates. In addition, the increase was partially offset by tenant recoveries and tax adjustments relating to the prior year for our Rincon Center, Clocktower Square and 1455 Market Street properties.

•

A $10.6 million, or 40.2%, increase in NOI from our Non-Same-Store office store properties resulting primarily from increased rental income relating to the commencement of Netflix’s lease at our Icon property, higher rents and occupancy at our Metro Center (Qualys, Inc. and BrightEdge) property and a number of acquisitions in 2016, which include 11601 Wilshire (acquired July 2016), Hill7 (acquired October 2016) and Page Mill Hill (acquired December 2016 (collectively “2016 Acquisitions”), partially offset by the sale of our Bayhill Office Center (sold in January 2016), One Bay Plaza (sold in June 2016) and 222 Kearny Street (sold in February 2017) properties.

•

A $1.1 million, or 20.3%, decrease in NOI from our Same-Store media and entertainment properties resulting primarily from lower other property-related revenues and higher operating expenses. The decrease was driven by unusually high production activity by a stage user in the first quarter of 2016, which normalized in the most recently completed quarter, as well as the use by Netflix of a stage for storage purposes in connection with its move into Icon over the most recent quarter. Additionally, the increase in operating expense was largely due to higher occupancy and expense savings associated with a property tax reassessment in 2016. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in rental revenues resulting primarily from higher occupancy and an increase in tenant recoveries largely stemmed from higher recoveries for current and prior year expenses attributable to KTLA at Sunset Bronson Studios.

Office NOI

Same-Store

Same-Store office rental revenue increased $3.5 million, or 4.4%, to $82.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $78.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase is primarily due to leases signed at our 1455 Market Street (Uber Technologies, Inc and Vevo), 625 Second Street (Github and Blue Jeans) and Skyport Plaza (Qualcomm) properties at a higher rate than expiring leases and partially offset by a reduction in rental income at our Towers at Shore Center property due to a lease renewal at market rates lower than expiring rates.

Same-Store office tenant recoveries decreased $4.0 million, or 23.5%, to $12.9 million for three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $16.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The decrease is primarily related to lower property tax recovery resulting from a property tax reassessment of our Rincon Center, Clocktower Square and 1455 Market Street properties.

Same-Store office parking and other revenue was $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, relatively flat as compared to $4.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Same-Store office operating expenses decreased $4.2 million, or 13.6%, to $27.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $31.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The decrease is primarily due to tax reassessments relating to the prior year for our Rincon Center, Clocktower Square and 1455 Market Street properties.

Non-Same-Store

Non-Same-Store office rental revenue increased by $13.8 million, or 36.7%, to $51.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $37.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase is primarily due to rental income relating to the commencement of Netflix’s lease at our Icon property, higher rents and occupancy at our Metro Center (Qualys, Inc. and BrightEdge) property and the 2016 Acquisitions, partially offset by the sale of our Bayhill Office Center (sold in January 2016), One Bay Plaza (sold in June 2016) and 222 Kearny Street (sold in February 2017) properties.

Non-Same-Store office tenant recoveries increased $0.8 million, or 22.8%, to $4.5 million for three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $3.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase is primarily due to higher occupancy and higher overall recoverable operating expenses.

Non-Same-Store office parking and other revenue was $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, relatively flat as compared to $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Non-Same-Store office operating expenses increased by $4.5 million, or 27.3%, to $21.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $16.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase is primarily due to the 2016 Acquisitions partially offset by the sale of our Bayhill Office Center (sold in January 2016), One Bay Plaza (sold in June 2016) and 222 Kearny Street (sold in February 2017) properties.

Same-Store Media & Entertainment NOI

Media and entertainment rental revenue, tenant recoveries and other property-related revenue were $11.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, relatively flat as compared to $11.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The activity is primarily related to a $0.7 million increase in rental revenue to $6.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, relatively flat as compared to $6.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and a $0.5 million increase in tenant recoveries to $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017, relatively flat as compared to $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Other property-related revenues decreased by $0.9 million to $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 primarily due to unusually high production activity by a stage user in the first quarter of 2016, which normalized in the most recently completed quarter, as well as the use by Netflix of a stage for storage purposes in connection with its move into Icon over the most recent quarter.

Media and entertainment operating expenses increased $1.3 million, or 21.8%, to $7.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $6.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase is primarily due to higher occupancy and expense savings associated with a property tax reassessment in 2016.

Other Expenses (Income)

General and administrative expenses include wages and salaries for corporate-level employees, accounting, legal and other professional services, office supplies, entertainment, travel and automobile expenses, telecommunications and computer-related expenses and other miscellaneous items. General and administrative expenses increased $1.3 million, or 10.5%, to $13.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $12.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to the adoption of the 2017 OPP and increased staffing to meet operational needs, partially offset by decreases in office expenses and shareholder relation costs.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $2.4 million, or 3.5%, to $70.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $68.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase was primarily related to depreciation expenses associated with 2016 Acquisitions and our Icon property, partially offset by the reduction of depreciation expense as a result of the sale of our One Bay Plaza and 222 Kearny Street properties.

Interest expense increased $4.7 million, or 27.1%, to $21.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $17.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. At March 31, 2017, we had $2.4 billion of notes payable, compared to $2.1 billion at March 31, 2016, excluding net deferred financing costs and net unamortized loan premium. The increase was primarily attributable to a $400.0 million increase in term loan debt and private placement borrowings and $101.0 million borrowings related to our Hill7 property, partially offset by interest savings related to our paydown on our indebtedness associated with our Sunset Gower Studios and Sunset Bronson Studios properties.

We recognized unrealized gain on our derivative instruments of $6 thousand at March 31, 2017 as compared to $2.1 million unrealized loss at March 31, 2016. The unrealized gain is related to a portion of our derivative instruments that was evaluated to be ineffective in 2016. In July 2016, we amended the interest rate swaps to add a 0.00% floor to one-month LIBOR, and then de-designated the original swaps and designated the amended swaps as a hedge in order to minimize the ineffective portion of the original derivatives.

We completed the sale of our 222 Kearny Street and 3402 Pico Boulevard properties for $51.8 million and $35.0 million, respectively (before certain credits, prorations and closing costs). We generated $16.9 million gains on sale of real estate for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to a $6.4 million gain on sale of real estate for the three months ended March 31, 2016 resulting from the sale of our Bayhill Office property for $215.0 million (before certain credits, prorations and closing costs).

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had $115.7 million of cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2017.

As of March 31, 2017, we had $400.0 million of total undrawn capacity under our unsecured revolving credit facility.

We have an at-the-market equity offering program, or ATM program, which allows us to sell up to $125.0 million of common stock, $20.1 million of which has been sold through March 31, 2017.

On January 20, 2016, our Board authorized a share repurchase program to buy up to $100.0 million of our outstanding common stock. No share repurchases were made through March 31, 2017.

We intend to use the unsecured revolving credit facility and ATM program, among other things, to finance the acquisition of other properties, to provide funds for tenant improvements and capital expenditures, and to provide for working capital and other corporate purposes.

Based on the closing price of our common stock of $34.64 on March 31, 2017, our ratio of debt to total market capitalization was approximately 30.7% (counting Series A preferred units as debt). Our total market capitalization is defined as the sum of the market value of our outstanding common stock (which may decrease, thereby increasing our debt to total

capitalization ratio), including restricted stock that we may issue to certain of our directors and executive officers, plus the aggregate value of common units not owned by us, plus the liquidation preference of outstanding Series A preferred units, plus the book value of our total consolidated indebtedness.

Our short-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of operating expenses and other expenditures associated with our properties, distributions to our limited partners and dividend payments to our stockholders required to maintain our REIT status, capital expenditures and, potentially, acquisitions. We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements through cash on hand, net cash provided by operations, reserves established from existing cash and, if necessary, by drawing upon our unsecured revolving credit facility.

Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary for the repayment of debt at maturity, property acquisitions and non-recurring capital improvements. We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements with net cash from operations, long-term secured and unsecured indebtedness and the issuance of equity and debt securities. We also may fund property acquisitions and non-recurring capital improvements using our unsecured revolving credit facility pending permanent financing.

We believe we have access to multiple sources of capital to fund our long-term liquidity requirements, including the incurrence of additional debt and the issuance of additional equity. However, our ability to incur additional debt will be dependent on a number of factors, including our degree of leverage, the value of our unencumbered assets and borrowing restrictions that may be imposed by lenders. Our ability to access the equity capital markets will be dependent on a number of factors as well, including general market conditions for REITs and market perceptions about us.

Outstanding Indebtedness

Our indebtedness creates the possibility that we may be unable to generate cash sufficient to pay the principal of, interest on or other amounts in respect of our indebtedness and other obligations. In addition, we may incur additional debt from time to time to finance strategic acquisitions, investments, joint ventures or for other purposes, subject to the restrictions contained in the documents governing our indebtedness. If we incur additional debt, the risks associated with our leverage, including our ability to service our debt, would increase.

As of March 31, 2017, we had outstanding notes payable of $2.41 billion (before $18.8 million of net deferred financing costs), of which $1.17 billion, or 48.6%, was variable rate debt. $839.5 million of the variable rate debt is subject to derivative instruments described in Item 1. “Financial Statements—Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Derivative Instruments.”

Cash Flows

A comparison of our cash flow activity is as follows:



	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2017			2016			Dollar Change			Percent Change
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	92,897		$	58,897		$	34,000		57.7	%
Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities	(51,912		)	158,214			(210,126		)	(132.8	)
Net cash used in financing activities	(8,310		)	(213,295		)	204,985			(96.1	)

Cash and cash equivalents were $115.7 million and $83.0 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $34.0 million to $92.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $58.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in cash NOI, as defined, from our office properties, arising primarily from the 11601 Wilshire, Hill7 and Page Mill Hill acquisitions, and higher rental revenue across our portfolio.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities increased by $210.1 million to $51.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $158.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase was primarily attributable to increased cash used for additions to investment in real estate, contributions to an unconsolidated entity, and payment of the deposit for the Sunset Las Palmas Studios (formerly Hollywood Center Studios and purchase of the remaining interest in the land associated with our 11601 Wilshire property, partially offset by lower proceeds from sale of real estate assets.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities decreased by $205.0 million to $8.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $213.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The change was primarily due to proceeds from sale of common stock in 2017, partially offset by repurchases of common units in our operating partnership in 2017, increase in payments of notes payables, decrease in proceeds from notes payables, and increase in dividends paid to stockholders and unitholders.

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, there were no material changes outside the ordinary course of business in the information regarding specified contractual obligations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. See Item 1. “Financial Statements—Note 9 to our Consolidated Financial Statements—Notes Payable, net” for information regarding our minimum future principal payments due on our senior unsecured loans and mortgage loans. See Item 1. “Financial Statements—Note 12 to our Consolidated Financial Statements—Future Minimum Base Rents and Lease Payments Future Minimum Rents” for information regarding our future minimum base rents and future minimum ground lease payments.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We currently do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our historical financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates of certain items and judgments as to certain future events, for example with respect to the assignment of the purchase price of acquired property among land, buildings, improvements, equipment, and any related intangible assets and liabilities, or the effect of a property tax reassessment of our properties. These determinations, even though inherently subjective and prone to change, affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. While we believe that our estimates are based on reasonable assumptions and judgments at the time they are made, some of our assumptions, estimates and judgments will inevitably prove to be incorrect. As a result, actual outcomes will likely differ from our accruals, and those differences—positive or negative—could be material. Some of our accruals are subject to adjustment, as we believe appropriate based on revised estimates and reconciliation to the actual results when available.

In addition, we identified certain critical accounting policies that affect certain of our more significant estimates and assumptions used in preparing our consolidated financial statements in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. We have not made any material changes to these policies during the periods covered by this Report.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measure: Funds From Operations

We calculate FFO in accordance with the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts. The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss calculated in accordance with GAAP, excluding extraordinary items, as defined by GAAP, gains and losses from sales of depreciable real estate and impairment write-downs associated with depreciable real estate, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs and depreciation of non-real estate assets) and after adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The calculation of FFO includes the amortization of deferred revenue related to tenant-funded tenant improvements and excludes the depreciation of the related tenant improvement assets. We believe that FFO is a useful supplemental measure of our operating performance. The exclusion from FFO of gains and losses from the sale of operating real estate assets allows investors and analysts to readily identify the operating results of the assets that form the core of our activity and assists in comparing those operating results between periods. Also, because FFO is generally recognized as the industry standard for reporting the operations of REITs, it facilitates comparisons of operating performance to other REITs. However, other REITs may use different methodologies to calculate FFO, and accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to all other REITs.

Implicit in historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP is the assumption 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 presentations of operating results for real estate companies using historical cost accounting alone to be insufficient. Because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, we believe that FFO along with the required GAAP presentations provides a more complete measurement of our performance relative to our competitors and a more appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing and investing activities than the required GAAP presentations alone would provide. We use FFO per share to calculate annual cost bonuses for certain employees.

However, FFO should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our operating performance because it does not reflect either depreciation and amortization costs or the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, which are significant economic costs and could materially impact our results from operations.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income to FFO:



	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2017			2016
Net income	$	24,153		$	5,976
Adjustments:
Depreciation and amortization of real estate assets	70,294			67,905
Gains on sale of real estate	(16,866		)	(6,352		)
FFO attributable to non-controlling interests	(5,507		)	(4,162		)
Net income attributable to preferred units	(159		)	(159		)
FFO to common stockholders and unitholders	$	71,915		$	63,208
