EXPLANATORY NOTE
This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2022 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. In statements regarding qualification as a REIT, such terms refer solely to Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. 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, 2022, Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. owned approximately 98.3% of the ownership interest in our operating partnership (including unvested restricted units). The remaining approximately 1.7% interest was owned by certain of our executive officers and directors, certain of their affiliates and other outside investors, including unvested operating partnership performance units. 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 disclosures apply 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.

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 the Securities and Exchange Commission (“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 ending December 31, 2022. The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P. and the notes thereto.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited, tabular amounts in thousands, except square footage, share and unit data)
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 and controlled subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements of the operating partnership include the accounts of the operating partnership and all wholly-owned and controlled subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
Under the consolidation guidance, the Company first evaluates an entity using the variable interest model, then the voting model. The Company ultimately consolidates all entities that the Company controls through either majority ownership or voting rights, including all variable interest entities (“VIEs”) of which the Company is considered the primary beneficiary. The Company accounts for all other unconsolidated joint ventures using the equity method of accounting. In addition, the Company continually evaluates each legal entity that is not wholly-owned for reconsideration based on changing circumstances.
VIEs are defined as entities in which equity investors do not have:
•the characteristics of a controlling financial interest;
•sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties; and/or
•the entity is structured with non-substantive voting rights.
The entity that consolidates a VIE is known as its primary beneficiary and is generally the entity with both the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance and the right to receive benefits from the VIE or the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. As of March 31, 2022, the Company has determined that its operating partnership and 18 joint ventures met the definition of a VIE. 12 of these joint ventures are consolidated and six are unconsolidated.
Consolidated Joint Ventures
As of March 31, 2022, the operating partnership has determined that 12 of its joint ventures met the definition of a VIE and are consolidated:

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited, tabular amounts in thousands, except square footage, share and unit data)
Substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the Company are related to the operating partnership VIE. The assets and credit of certain VIEs can only be used to satisfy those VIEs’ own contractual obligations, and the VIEs’ creditors have no recourse to the general credit of the Company.
Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
As of March 31, 2022, the Company has determined it is not the primary beneficiary of six of its joint ventures that are VIEs. Due to its significant influence over the unconsolidated entities, the Company accounts for them using the equity method of accounting. 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 in its unconsolidated joint ventures is reflected within investment in unconsolidated real estate entities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company’s share of net income or loss from the joint ventures is included within income from unconsolidated real estate entities on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company uses the cumulative earnings approach for determining cash flow presentation of distributions from unconsolidated joint ventures. Under this approach, distributions up to the amount of cumulative equity in earnings recognized are classified as cash inflows from operating activities, and those in excess of that amount are classified as cash inflows from investing activities. Refer to Note 6 for further details regarding our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures.
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, the fair value measurement of contingent consideration, assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combination transactions, determining the incremental borrowing rate used in the present value calculations of its new or modified operating lessee agreements, its accrued liabilities and the valuation of 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.
Lease Accounting
The Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842, which requires companies to identify lease and non-lease components of a lease agreement. Lease components relate to the right to use the leased asset whereas non-lease components relate to payments for goods or services that are transferred separately from the right to use the underlying asset.
Lessee Accounting
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company’s operating lease agreements relate to ground leases and facility leases and are reflected in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. For leases with a term of 12 months or less the Company made an accounting policy election, by class of underlying asset, not to recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities. The Company recognizes lease expense for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Variable lease payments are excluded from the ROU assets and lease liabilities and are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company determines its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date, or the date of the ASC 842 adoption, in determining the present value of lease payments. The weighted average incremental borrowing rate used to calculate the ROU assets and liabilities was 5.6%. ROU assets also include any lease payments made and exclude lease incentives. Many of the Company’s lessee agreements include options to extend the lease, which the Company does not include in its minimum lease terms unless the option is reasonably certain to be exercised. Rental expense

for lease payments related to operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The weighted average remaining lease term was 28 years as of March 31, 2022.
Lessor Accounting
The presentation of revenues on the Consolidated Statements of Operations reflects a single lease component that combines rental, tenant recoveries and other tenant-related revenues for the office portfolio, with the election of the lessor practical expedient. For the Company’s rentals at the studio properties, total lease consideration is allocated to lease and non-lease components on a relative standalone basis. The recognition of revenues related to lease components is governed by ASC 842, while revenue related to non-lease components is subject to ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”).
Revenue Recognition
The Company has compiled an inventory of its sources of revenues and has identified the following material revenue streams: (i) rental revenues (ii) tenant recoveries and other tenant-related revenues (iii) ancillary revenues (iv) other revenues (v) sale of real estate (vi) management fee income and (vii) management services reimbursement income.
Revenue Stream | Components | Financial Statement Location | ||||||||||||
Rental revenues | Office, stage and storage rentals | Office and Studio segments: rental | ||||||||||||
Tenant recoveries and other tenant-related revenues | Reimbursement of real estate taxes, insurance, repairs and maintenance, other operating expenses and must-take parking revenues | Office segment: rental Studio segment: rental and service revenues and other | ||||||||||||
Ancillary revenues | Revenues derived from tenants’ use of power, HVAC and telecommunications (i.e., telephone and internet) and lighting, equipment and vehicle rentals | Studio segment: service revenues and other | ||||||||||||

Management fee income | Income derived from management services provided to unconsolidated joint venture entities | Fee income | ||||||||||||
Management services reimbursement income | Reimbursement of costs incurred by the Company in the management of unconsolidated joint venture entities | Management services reimbursement income—unconsolidated real estate entities |
The Company recognizes rental revenue from tenants on a straight-line basis over the lease term when collectability is probable and the tenant has taken possession of or controls the physical use of the leased asset. The Company does not account for lease concessions related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic as lease modifications to the extent that the concessions are granted as payment deferrals and total payments remain substantially the same during the lease term.
The Company recognizes tenant recoveries related to reimbursement of real estate taxes, insurance, repairs and maintenance and other operating expenses as revenue in the period during which the applicable expenses are incurred. The reimbursements are recognized and presented gross, as the Company is generally the primary obligor with respect to purchasing goods and services from third-party suppliers, has discretion in selecting the supplier and bears the associated credit risk.
Other tenant-related revenues include parking stipulated in lease agreements as must-take parking rentals. These revenues are recognized over the term of the lease.
Ancillary revenues, other revenues, management fee income and management services reimbursement income are accounted for under ASC 606. These revenues have single performance obligations and are recognized at the point in time when services are rendered.

In regards to sales of real estate, the Company applies certain recognition and measurement principles in accordance with ASC 606. The Company is required to evaluate the sales of real estate based on transfer of control. If a real estate sale contract includes ongoing involvement with the sold property by the seller, the seller must evaluate each promised good or service under the contract to determine whether it represents a performance obligation, constitutes a guarantee or prevents the transfer of control. The timing and pattern of revenue recognition might change as it relates to gains on sale of real estate if the sale includes continued involvement that represents a separate performance obligation.
Acquisitions
The Company applies the acquisition method for acquisitions that meet the definition of a business combination. Under the acquisition method, the Company estimates the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the acquired entity on the acquisition date. The difference between the fair value of the consideration transferred for the acquisition and the fair value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill and acquisition-related expenses arising from the transaction are expensed as incurred. The Company includes the results of operations of the businesses that it acquires beginning on the acquisition date.
The Company applies a cost accumulation and allocation model to acquisitions that meet the definition of an asset acquisition. Under this model, the purchase price is allocated based on the relative fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Additionally, acquisition-related expenses associated with an asset acquisition are capitalized as part of the purchase price.
Goodwill and Acquired Intangible Assets
Goodwill is an unidentifiable intangible asset and is recognized as a residual, generally measured as the excess of consideration transferred in a business combination over the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is assigned to reporting units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination.
The Company tests its goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit to which it is assigned, which can be an operating segment or one level below an operating segment. The Company has three operating segments: the management entity, Office and Studio. The management entity and the Office operating segments are each a reporting unit. Within the Studio operating segment, there are two reporting units: Studio Properties and Studio Services, the latter of which consists of the Zio and Star Waggons businesses acquired in the year ended December 31, 2021.
The assessment of goodwill for impairment may initially be performed based on qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, including goodwill. If so, a quantitative assessment is performed, and to the extent the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, impairment is recognized for the excess up to the amount of goodwill assigned to the reporting unit. Alternatively, the Company may bypass a qualitative

assessment and proceed directly to a quantitative assessment. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the carrying value of goodwill was $109.4 million. No impairment indicators have been identified during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.
Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method, which reflects the pattern in which the assets are consumed. The estimated useful lives for acquired intangible assets range from 5 to 7 years. The Company assesses its intangible assets with finite lives for impairment when indicators of impairment are identified.
3. Business Combinations
On August 16, 2021 and August 31, 2021 (each an “Acquisition Date” individually, and collectively, the “Acquisition Dates”), the Company acquired 100% of the equity interests in Zio and Star Waggons, respectively. The acquired businesses provide transportation and logistics services to studio productions and their acquisition will expand the Company’s service offerings for its studio platform.
The following table summarizes the Acquisition Date fair value of the consideration transferred in connection with the acquisitions:

Cash | $ | 117,198 | $ | 92,656 | |||||||
Contingent consideration | 22,543 | — | |||||||||
Total consideration | $ | 139,741 | $ | 92,656 |
The terms of the Zio securities purchase agreement require the Company to pay up to $35.0 million of additional consideration to the business’s former shareholders, subject to certain performance thresholds being met, of which $15.0 million has been paid through March 31, 2022.

NET ASSETS ACQUIRED | $ | 139,741 | $ | 92,656 |
Of the $41.7 million of intangible assets acquired as part of the Zio acquisition, $8.5 million was assigned to the registered trade name, which is not subject to amortization. The remaining $33.2 million of acquired intangible assets includes customer relationships of $30.0 million (seven-year useful life) and non-compete agreements of $3.0 million (five-year weighted-average useful life). The definite-lived intangible assets are subject to a weighted-average useful life of approximately seven years.
Of the $33.5 million of intangible assets acquired as part of the Star Waggons acquisition, $8.6 million was assigned to the registered trade name, which is not subject to amortization. The remaining $24.9 million of acquired intangible assets includes

customer relationships valued at $22.5 million (seven-year useful life) and non-compete agreements valued at $2.3 million (five-year weighted-average useful life). The definite-lived intangible assets are subject to a weighted-average useful life of approximately seven years.
Goodwill of $70.6 million and $30.1 million for the Zio and Star Waggons acquisitions, respectively, was recognized on the respective Acquisition Dates. The goodwill recognized is attributable to expected synergies and the assembled workforce of Zio and Star Waggons. The goodwill has been allocated to the studio services reporting unit. Goodwill is deductible for tax purposes and as a result, deferred taxes have been recorded. As of March 31, 2022, there were no changes in the recognized amounts of goodwill resulting from the acquisitions.

Acquisitions of Real Estate

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company assesses the carrying value of real estate assets and related intangibles whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable in accordance with GAAP. Impairment losses are recorded on real estate assets held for investment when indicators of impairment are present and the future undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amount. The Company recognizes impairment losses to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, based on Level 1 or Level 2 inputs.
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded $12.0 million of impairment charges related to its Del Amo office property, which is classified as held for sale as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, due to a reduction in the estimated fair value of the property. The estimated fair value of $6.0 million was based on the estimated sales price of the property, which is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company did not recognize impairment charges during the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Dispositions of Real Estate

Non-Real Estate Investments
The Company measures its investments in common stock and convertible preferred stock at fair value based on Level 1 and Level 2 inputs, respectively. The Company measures its investments in funds that do not have a readily determinable fair value using the Net Asset Value (“NAV”) practical expedient and uses NAV reported without adjustment unless it is aware of information indicating the NAV reported does not accurately reflect the fair value of the investment. Changes in the fair value of these non-real estate investments are included in unrealized gain on non-real estate investments on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company recognized an unrealized gain of $2.6 million and $3.9 million on its non-real estate investments due to the observable changes in fair value during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Stock Purchase Warrant
The Company holds an investment in a stock purchase warrant that gives the Company the right to purchase a fixed number of shares of common stock of a non-real estate investee. The warrant meets the definition of a derivative and is measured at fair value based on Level 2 inputs. Changes in the fair value of the derivative asset are included in unrealized gain on non-real estate investments on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company recognized an unrealized loss of $0.9 million and

are recorded in prepaid expenses and other assets and derivative liabilities are recorded in accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company has agreements with its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where the Company could be declared in default on its derivative obligations if repayment of the underlying indebtedness is accelerated by the lender due to the Company’s default on the indebtedness.
The Company’s derivatives are classified as Level 2 and their fair values are derived from estimated values obtained from observable market data for similar instruments.
The fair market value of derivatives is presented on a gross basis on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following table summarizes the Company’s derivative instruments as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

1.The rate is based on the fixed rate from the swap and the spread based on the operating partnership’s leverage ratio.
2.The swaps were designated under the first payments approach within hedge accounting, where the Company elected to designate a cash flow (LIBOR-based interest payments) instead of a specific piece of debt.
The Company reclassifies unrealized gains and losses related to cash flow hedges into earnings in the same period during which the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. As of March 31, 2022, the Company expects $0.2 million of unrealized loss included in accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense in the next 12 months.
12. U.S. Government Securities
The Company had U.S. Government securities of $127.2 million and $129.3 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The acquisition of the One Westside and 10850 Pico properties in 2018 included the assumption of debt that was, in substance, defeased through the purchase of U.S. Government-backed securities. The securities are investments held to maturity and are carried at amortized cost on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company has both the intent and ability to hold to maturity. As of March 31, 2022, the Company has incurred $2.5 million of gross unrealized gains and no gross unrealized losses related to the U.S. Government securities.

13. 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 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
30

stockholders. The Company has elected, together with certain of its subsidiaries, to treat each such subsidiary as a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) for federal income tax purposes.
In general, 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, Hill7, Ferry Building and 1918 Eighth properties, REITs) for federal income tax purposes. In the case of the Bentall Centre property and the Sunset Waltham Cross Studios development, the Company owns its interest in the properties through non-U.S entities treated as TRSs 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, 2022, the Company has not established a liability for uncertain tax positions.
The Company and certain of its TRSs file income tax returns with the U.S. federal government and various state and local jurisdictions. The Company and its TRSs are no longer subject to tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2017. The Company has assessed its tax positions for all open years, which as of March 31, 2022 included 2018 to 2020 for federal purposes and 2017 to 2020 for state purposes, and concluded that there are no material uncertainties to be recognized.

The Company’s operating lease obligations have expiration dates ranging from 2023 through 2067, including extension options which the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. Certain leases provide for variable rental payments based on third-party appraisals of fair market land value, CPI adjustments or a percentage of annual gross income. There are no notable restrictions or covenants imposed by the leases, nor guarantees of residual value.
As of March 31, 2022, the present value of the remaining contractual payments of $664.7 million under the Company’s operating lease agreements was $315.4 million. The corresponding operating lease right-of-use assets amounted to $308.4 million.

15. 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 require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
The Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis include the following as of:

2.Included in accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
3.Related to the acquisition of Zio. Refer to Note 3 for additional details.
4.According to the relevant accounting standards, certain investments that are measured at fair value using the NAV practical expedient have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value amounts presented in the table are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the amounts presented in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Level 1 items include an investment in common stock of a publicly traded company which is valued on a quarterly basis using the closing stock price. Level 2 items include interest rate cap and swap which are valued on a quarterly basis using a linear regression model, as well as investments in preferred stock and warrants of a publicly traded company value which are valued on a quarterly basis using the closing stock price and a Black-Scholes model, respectively. Level 3 items include the earnout liability which is valued on a quarterly basis using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model. Inputs to the model include the discount rate and probability-weighted earnout payments based on a Monte Carlo simulation with one million trials. Fair value measurement using unobservable inputs is inherently uncertain, and a change in significant inputs could result in different fair values.
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. The fair value of the investment in U.S. Government securities is an estimate based on Level 1 inputs. The fair values of debt are estimates based on rates currently prevailing for similar instruments of similar maturities using Level 2 inputs.

16. Stock-Based Compensation
The Company’s 2010 Incentive Plan permits the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) to grant, among other things, restricted stock, restricted stock units, operating partnership performance units and performance-based awards. As of March 31, 2022, 7.2 million common shares were available for grant under the 2010 Plan. The calculation of shares available for grant is determined after taking into account unvested restricted stock, unvested operating partnership performance units and unvested RSUs, assuming the maximum bonus pool eligible ultimately is earned and based on a stock price of $27.75.
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 Non-Employee Director Compensation Program. The time-based awards are generally issued in the second quarter, in conjunction with the director’s election to the Board, and the individual share awards vest in equal annual installments over the applicable service vesting period, which is three years. Additionally, certain non-employee Board members elect to receive operating partnership performance units in lieu of their annual cash retainer fees. These awards are generally issued in the fourth quarter and are fully-vested upon their issuance.
The Board awards time-based restricted shares or time-based operating partnership performance units to certain employees on an annual basis as part of the employees’ annual compensation. These time-based awards are generally issued in the fourth quarter and vest in equal annual installments over the applicable service vesting period, which is generally three years. Additionally, certain awards are subject to a mandatory holding period upon vesting if the grantee is an executive officer. Lastly,

certain employees elect to receive operating partnership performance units in lieu of their annual cash bonus. These awards are generally issued in the fourth quarter and are fully-vested upon their issuance.
Beginning in 2020, the compensation committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) adopted an annual Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. Performance Stock Unit Plan (“PSU Plan”). Under the PSU Plan, the Compensation Committee awards restricted stock units or performance units in the operating partnership to certain employees. PSU Plan grants consist of two portions. A portion of each award, the Relative Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) Performance Unit, is eligible to vest based on the achievement of the Company’s TSR compared to the TSR of the FTSE NAREIT All Equity REITs index over a three-year performance period, with the vesting percentage subject to certain percentage targets. The remaining portion of each award, the Operational Performance Unit, becomes eligible to vest based on the achievement of operational performance metrics over a one-year performance period and vests over three years. The number of Operational Performance Units that becomes eligible to vest based on the achievement of operational performance metrics may be adjusted based on the Company’s achievement of absolute TSR goals over a three-year performance period by applying the applicable vesting percentages. Certain of the awards granted under the PSU Plan are subject to a two-year post-vesting restriction period, during which any awards earned may not be sold or transferred.
The following table presents the classification and amount recognized for stock-based compensation related to the Company’s awards:

17. Earnings Per Share
Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc.
The Company calculates basic earnings per share using the two-class method by dividing the net income available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Unvested time-based restricted stock awards, unvested time-based performance unit awards and unvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”) that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends are participating securities and are included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The Company calculates diluted earnings per share using the two-class method or the treasury stock and if-converted method, whichever results in more dilution. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, both methods of calculation yielded the same diluted earnings per share amount. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock, where such exercise or conversion would result in a lower earnings per share amount.

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 at a value equal to the then-current market value of one share of common stock. However, in lieu of such payment of cash, the Company may, at its election, issue shares of its common stock in exchange for such common units on a one-for-one basis.
Performance Units in the Operating Partnership
Performance units are partnership interests in the operating partnership. Each performance unit awarded will be deemed equivalent to an award of one share 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.
Ownership Interest in the Operating Partnership
The following table summarizes the ownership interest in the operating partnership, excluding unvested restricted units and unvested restricted performance units, as of:

Share Repurchase Program
The Company is authorized to repurchase shares of its common stock up to a total of $250.0 million of its common stock under the share repurchase program. No repurchases were made under the program during the three months ended March 31, 2022. Since commencement of the program, a cumulative total of $176.2 million has been repurchased.

On February 25, 2022, the Company entered into an uncollared accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) agreement to purchase $100 million of its outstanding common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company made an initial payment of $100 million and received an initial delivery of approximately 3.3 million shares of common stock representing 85% of the total $100 million agreement based on the closing price of our common stock on the transaction date. Final settlement of the agreement will be based on the daily volume-weighted average price during the measurement period, less a negotiated discount, and is expected in the third quarter 2022.
On February 25, 2022, the Company entered into a collared ASR agreement to purchase $100 million of its outstanding common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company made an initial payment of $100 million and received an initial delivery of approximately 3.3 million shares of common stock based on an estimated cap price calculated using the daily volume-weighted average price during an initial hedge period. Final settlement of the agreement will be based on the daily volume-weighted average price during the measurement period, subject to a floor and cap and less a negotiated discount, and is expected in the third quarter 2022.
At final settlement, the counterparty may be obligated to deliver additional shares of common stock to the Company or the Company may be obligated to make delivery of shares of common stock or a cash payment to the counterparty, at the Company’s option. Because of this option to settle in cash or net shares, the forward sale component of the ASR agreements is classified as equity.
Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock
Series C cumulative redeemable preferred stock relates to the 17,000,000 shares of our Series C preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share. Holders of Series C preferred stock, when and as authorized by the board of directors of the Company, are entitled to cumulative cash dividends at the rate of 4.750% per annum of the $25.00 per share, equivalent to $1.1875 per annum per share. Dividends are payable quarterly in arrears on or about the last day of December, March, June and September of each year, beginning on or about March 31, 2022. In addition to other preferential rights, the holders of Series C preferred stock are entitled to receive the liquidation preference, which is $25.00 per share, before the holders of common stock in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company’s affairs. Generally, shares of Series C preferred stock are not redeemable by the Company prior to November 16, 2026. However, upon the occurrence of a change of control, holders of the Series C preferred stock will have the right, (unless the Company has elected to redeem the Series C preferred stock) to convert into a specified number of shares of common stock.

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, compensation expense and the basis of depreciable assets and estimated useful lives used to compute depreciation.
20. Segment Reporting
The Company’s reporting segments are based on the Company’s method of internal reporting, which classifies its operations into two reportable segments: (i) office properties and related operations and (ii) studio properties and related operations. The Company evaluates performance based upon net operating income of the segment operations. General and administrative expenses and interest expense are not included in segment profit as the Company’s internal reporting addresses these items on a corporate level. Asset information by segment is not reported because the Company does not use this measure to assess performance or make decisions to allocate resources; therefore, depreciation and amortization expense is not allocated among segments.

24. Subsequent Events
On April 14, 2022, the Company launched EquiBlue, an investing platform that seeks to leverage commercial real estate to holistically provide economic opportunity and upward mobility for women and people of color. As sponsor, the Company and its strategic partner have collectively committed to contributing at least 20% of the total capital commitment for EquiBlue’s initial fund, which is targeted at $300.0 million.
On April 27, 2022, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of Washington 1000, a fully entitled office development site in Seattle, Washington for a total purchase price of $85.6 million, before certain credits, prorations and closing costs. In anticipation of this transaction, on April 25, 2022, the Company borrowed $65.0 million under its unsecured revolving credit facility.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion relates to our consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes, see Part I, Item 1 “Financial Statements of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc.,” “Financial Statements of Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.” and “Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.” Statements in this Item 2 contain forward-looking statements. For a discussion of important risks related to our business and related to investing in our securities, including risks that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from results and events referred to in the forward-looking statements, see Part II, Item 1A “Risk Factors.” In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed in this report might not occur.
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.
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;
43
•our failure to maintain our status as a REIT;
•the loss of key personnel;
•environmental uncertainties and risks related to adverse weather conditions and natural disasters;
•financial market and foreign currency 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 the tax laws and uncertainty as to how those changes may be applied;
•changes in real estate and zoning laws and increases in real property tax rates; and
•other factors affecting the real estate industry generally, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Set forth below are some (but not all) of the factors that could adversely affect our business and financial performance. Moreover, 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.
Impact of COVID-19
The COVID-19 pandemic has not had a material impact on our operations, however, we continue to face significant uncertainties as a result of it, including new variants, although their impact on the economy appears to have diminished and the general commercial real estate market appears to be recovering. Both the investing and leasing environments are highly competitive. Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, uncertainty regarding the economic and political environment had made businesses reluctant to make long-term commitments or changes in their business plans. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in significant disruptions in utilization of office properties and uncertainty over how tenants will respond when their leases are scheduled to expire.
Possible future declines in rental rates and expectations of future rental concessions, including free rent to renew tenants early, to retain tenants who are up for renewal or to attract new tenants, or rent abatements for tenants severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, may result in decreases in cash flows from our properties. Our tenants could reevaluate their use of such properties in light of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, including their ability to have workers succeed in working at home, and determine not to renew these leases or to seek rent or other concessions as a condition of renewing their leases.
Potential future declines in economic conditions could negatively impact commercial real estate fundamentals and result in lower occupancy, lower rental rates and declining values in our real estate portfolio, which could have the following negative effects on us: the values of our investments in commercial properties could decrease below the amounts paid for such investments; and/or revenues from our properties could decrease due to fewer tenants and/or lower rental rates, making it more difficult for us to make distributions or meet our debt service obligations.
The debt market remains sensitive to the macro environment, such as impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, Federal Reserve policy, market sentiment or regulatory factors affecting the banking industry. Any future uncertainties in the capital markets may cause difficulty in refinancing debt obligations prior to maturity at terms as favorable as the terms of existing indebtedness. Market conditions can change quickly, potentially negatively impacting the value of real estate investments. We continuously review our investment and debt financing strategies to optimize our portfolio and the cost of our debt exposure.

Historical Results of Operations
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P. represents an update to the more detailed and comprehensive disclosures included in the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K of Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. and Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P. Accordingly, you should read the following discussion in conjunction with the information included in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as the unaudited financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
48
In addition, some of the statements and assumptions in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act or Section 21E of the Exchange Act, including, in particular, statements about our plans, strategies and prospects as well as estimates of industry growth for the quarter and beyond. See “Forward-looking Statements.”
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 1 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, 2022 to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2021
Net Operating Income
We evaluate performance based upon property net operating income (“NOI”). NOI is not a measure of operating results or cash flows from operating activities or cash flows as measured by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and should not be considered an alternative to net income, 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 net income. We calculate NOI as net income excluding corporate general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, impairments, gains/losses on sales of real estate, interest expense, interest income, transaction-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 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 groups:
•Same-store, which includes all of the properties owned and included in our stabilized portfolio as of January 1, 2021 and still owned and included in the stabilized portfolio as of March 31, 2022; and
•Non-same-store, which includes:
•Stabilized non-same-store properties
•Lease-up properties
•Repositioning properties
•Development properties
•Redevelopment properties
•Held for sale properties
•Operating results from studio service-related businesses

NOI increased $16.8 million, or 12.4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily resulting from:
•a $16.9 million increase in non-same-store NOI driven by:
•an increase in office NOI of $11.6 million primarily due to:
▪a $14.2 million increase in rental revenues resulting from the completion of our One Westside development property and delivery of the entire premises to Google in November 2021, the acquisition of our 5th & Bell property in December 2021 and a lease commenced at our Harlow property (Company 3) in April 2021 with rental of additional space commencing in January 2022 under the same lease; and
▪a $1.6 million increase in service and other revenues due to lease cancellation fees received at our Skyway Landing property;
▪partially offset by a $4.3 million increase in operating expenses corresponding to the increase in rental revenues.
•an increase in studio NOI of $5.3 million primarily due to the acquisition of Zio and Star Waggons in August 2021.
•an offsetting $0.1 million decrease in same-store NOI driven by:
•a decrease in studio NOI of $0.7 million primarily due to:
•a $1.3 million decrease in service and other revenues resulting from a decrease in services provided arising from the completion of certain television productions in June 2021;
•partially offset by a $0.7 million increase in rental revenues from an increase in studio rental activities at our Sunset Bronson and Sunset Las Palmas studios.
•partially offset by an increase in office NOI of $0.6 million primarily due to:
52
•a $2.1 million increase in rental revenues resulting from lease commencements at our Maxwell property (Califia Farms and Twitch Interactive), the conversion of a lease from percentage rent to base rent at our Maxwell property and lower reserves for uncollectible rents recognized at our 11601 Wilshire and 1455 Market properties; and
•a $1.3 million increase in service and other revenues resulting from lease cancellation fees at our 11601 Wilshire property and an increase in visitor parking revenue at our ICON property;
•partially offset by a $2.8 million increase in operating expenses resulting from an increase in various expenses at our Rincon Center, EPIC, Ferry Building and 11601 Wilshire properties.
Other Income (Expense)
Interest expense
The following table presents a reconciliation from gross interest expense to the interest expense line item on the Consolidated Statements of Operations:
Three Months Ended March 31, | |||||||||||||||||||||||
2022 | 2021 | Dollar Change | Percent Change | ||||||||||||||||||||
Gross interest expense | $ | 30,731 | $ | 33,540 | $ | (2,809) | (8.4) | % | |||||||||||||||
Capitalized interest | (3,285) | (5,671) | 2,386 | (42.1) | |||||||||||||||||||
Amortization of deferred financing costs and loan discounts/premiums | 3,390 | 2,417 | 973 | 40.3 | |||||||||||||||||||
TOTAL | $ | 30,836 | $ | 30,286 | $ | 550 | 1.8 | % |
Gross interest expense decreased by $2.8 million, or 8.4%, to $30.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $33.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily driven by the refinancing of the loan secured by the Hollywood Media Portfolio and the loan secured by the 1918 Eighth property at lower interest rates in August and November 2021, respectively, and the repayment of the mortgage loan secured by the 10950 Washington property in December 2021. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in the outstanding borrowings on the unsecured line of credit and the construction loan secured by the One Westside and 10850 Pico properties during the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Capitalized interest decreased by $2.4 million, or 42.1%, to $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $5.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily driven the completion of the One Westside and Harlow development properties.
Amortization of deferred financing costs and loan discounts/premiums increased by $1.0 million, or 40.3%, to $3.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was primarily driven by the amortization of new issuance costs associated with the refinanced $1.1 billion loan secured by the Hollywood Media Portfolio.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses increased $2.1 million, or 11.2%, to $20.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $18.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase is primarily driven by lower non-cash compensation expense during the three months ended March 31, 2021 due to the forfeiture of stock compensation awards granted to certain departing members of management, which did not recur during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Depreciation and amortization expense
Depreciation and amortization expense increased $9.4 million, or 11.4%, to $92.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $82.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was primarily related to the completion of the One Westside development in November 2021, the depreciation and amortization of non-real estate property, plant and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets acquired as part of the Zio and Star Waggons transactions in August 2021,
53
and the acquisition of the 5th & Bell property in December 2021. These increases were partially offset by the cessation of depreciation related to four properties classified as held for sale during the three months ended March 31, 2022.
Fee income
We recognized fee income of $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $0.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Fee income primarily represents management fee, construction management fee and leasing commission income earned from the unconsolidated real estate entities.
Unrealized gain on non-real estate investments
We recognized an unrealized gain on non-real estate investments of $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to an unrealized gain on non-real estate investments of $5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The activity in both periods is due to the observable changes in the fair value of the investments.
Impairment loss
We recognized an impairment loss of $20.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022, $12.0 million of which was due to a reduction in the estimated fair value of our Del Amo property and $8.5 million of which was due to the full impairment of the Zio trade name in connection with a rebranding of the business under the Company’s Sunset Studios platform. We did not recognize any impairment charges during the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have remained capitalized since our initial public offering through public offerings, private placements, joint ventures and continuous offerings under our at-the-market (“ATM”) program. We currently expect that our principal sources of funds to meet our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements for working capital, strategic acquisitions, capital expenditures, tenant improvements, leasing costs, dividends and distributions, share repurchases and repayments of outstanding debt financing will include:
•cash on hand, cash reserves and net cash provided by operations;
•proceeds from additional equity securities;
•our ATM program;
•borrowings under the operating partnership’s unsecured revolving credit facility and One Westside construction loan;
•proceeds from joint venture partners;
•proceeds from Sunset Glenoaks constructions loan (unconsolidated joint venture); and
•proceeds from additional secured, unsecured debt financings or offerings.
Liquidity Sources
We had approximately $137.6 million of cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2022. Our principal source of operating cash flow is related to leasing and operating the properties in our portfolio. Our properties provide a relatively consistent stream of cash flow that provides us with resources to pay operating expenses, debt service fees and fund quarterly dividend and distribution requirements.
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.
54
We have an ATM program that allows us to sell up to $125.0 million of common stock, $65.8 million of which has been sold through March 31, 2022. Any future sales will depend on several factors, including, but not limited to, market conditions, the trading price of our common stock and our capital needs. We have no obligation to sell the remaining shares available for sale under this program.
As of March 31, 2022, we had total borrowing capacity of $1.0 billion under our unsecured revolving credit facility, $335.0 million of which had been drawn. As of March 31, 2022, we had total borrowing capacity of $414.6 million under our construction loan, secured by our One Westside and 10850 Pico properties, $267.2 million of which had been drawn. As of March 31, 2022, we had total borrowing capacity of $94.0 million under the Sunset Glenoaks construction loan (unconsolidated joint venture), of which $3.8 million had been drawn. Subsequent to March 31, 2022, we entered into an amended and restated loan agreement to increase the total capacity of the Sunset Glenoaks construction loan to $100.6 million.
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. If we incur additional debt, the risks associated with our leverage, including our ability to service our debt, would increase.

Liquidity Uses
Contractual Obligations
The terms of the securities purchase agreement for the acquisition of Zio require the Company to pay up to $20.0 million of additional consideration to the business’s former shareholders in 2024, subject to certain performance thresholds being met.
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, there were no material changes outside the ordinary course of business in the information regarding specified contractual obligations contained in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. See Part I, Item 1 “Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Debt” for information regarding our future minimum principal payments due

Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were $197.8 million and $196.9 million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $19.2 million, or 16.8%, to $95.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $114.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The change primarily resulted from increases in pre-development costs incurred for future acquisitions and corporate expenditures, partially offset by operating cash flow contributions from the acquisitions of Star Waggons, Zio and 5th & Bell in 2021.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities decreased by $24.9 million, or 25.7%, to $72.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $97.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The change primarily resulted from a $43.2 million decrease in additions to investment in real estate during the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, partially offset by a $8.3 million increase in contributions to non-real estate investments and a $7.5 million increase in contributions to unconsolidated real estate entities primarily related to our investment in the Sunset Glenoaks Studios development.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities increased $24.6 million, or 1,063.7%, to $22.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The change primarily resulted from a $200.0 million cash outflow related to the accelerated share repurchase program, a $12.4 million decrease in contributions from non-controlling members in consolidated real estate entities, $7.6 million of dividends paid to Series C preferred stockholders and a $3.1 million increase in distributions to non-controlling members in consolidated real estate entities. This activity was partially offset by a $182.9 million increase in proceeds from unsecured and secured debt and a $14.8 million decrease in repurchases of common stock during the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021.

This loan has an initial interest rate of LIBOR plus 3.00% per annum and is interest-only through its term. The total capacity of the loan is $94.0 million. As of March 31, 2022, we have $90.2 million undrawn.
(3)Subsequent to March 31, 2022, we entered into an amended and restated loan agreement to increase the total capacity of the loan to $100.6 million.
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 an 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.
Refer to Part I, Item 1 “Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” for information regarding our critical accounting policies.
Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measure: Funds From Operations
We calculate FFO in accordance with the White Paper issued in December 2018 on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss calculated in accordance with GAAP, excluding 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. In the December 2018 White Paper, NAREIT provided an option to include value changes in mark-to-market equity securities in the calculation of FFO. We elected this option retroactively during the fourth quarter of 2018.
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,
57
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 cash 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.
