JBG SMITH PROPERTIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1.Organization and Basis of Presentation
Organization
JBG SMITH Properties ("JBG SMITH"), a Maryland real estate investment trust ("REIT"), owns and operates a portfolio of commercial and multifamily assets amenitized with ancillary retail. JBG SMITH's portfolio reflects its longstanding strategy of owning and operating assets within Metro-served submarkets in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area with high barriers to entry and vibrant urban amenities. Approximately
of our portfolio is in National Landing in Northern Virginia, where we serve as the developer for Amazon.com, Inc.'s ("Amazon") new headquarters and where Virginia Tech's $1 billion Innovation Campus is under construction. In addition, our third-party asset management and real estate services business provides fee-based real estate services to the Washington Housing Initiative ("WHI") Impact Pool, the legacy funds formerly organized by The JBG Companies ("JBG") (the "JBG Legacy Funds") and other third parties. Substantially all our assets are held by, and our operations are conducted through, JBG SMITH Properties LP ("JBG SMITH LP"), our operating partnership. As of September 30, 2022, JBG SMITH, as its sole general partner, controlled JBG SMITH LP and owned 88.3% of its OP Units, after giving effect to the conversion of certain vested long-term incentive partnership units ("LTIP Units") that are convertible into OP Units. JBG SMITH is referred to herein as "we," "us," "our" or other similar terms. References to "our share" refer to our ownership percentage of consolidated and unconsolidated assets in real estate ventures, but exclude our 10.0% subordinated interest in one commercial building and our 33.5% subordinated interest in four commercial buildings, as well as the associated non-recourse mortgages payable, held through unconsolidated real estate ventures; these interests and debt are excluded because our investment in each real estate venture is zero, we do not anticipate receiving any near-term cash flow distributions from the real estate ventures and we have not guaranteed their obligations or otherwise committed to providing financial support.We were organized for the purpose of receiving, via the spin-off on July 17, 2017 (the "Separation"), substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Vornado Realty Trust's ("Vornado") Washington, D.C. segment. On July 18, 2017, we acquired the management business, and certain assets and liabilities of JBG (the "Combination"). The Separation and the Combination are collectively referred to as the "Formation Transaction."
As of September 30, 2022, our Operating Portfolio consisted of 56 operating assets comprising 35 commercial assets totaling 10.5 million square feet (8.9 million square feet at our share), 19 multifamily assets totaling 7,359 units (6,608 units at our share) and two wholly owned land assets for which we are the ground lessor. Additionally, we have: (i) two under-construction multifamily assets with 1,583 units (1,583 units at our share); (ii) eight near-term development assets totaling 3.7 million square feet (3.5 million square feet at our share) of estimated potential development density; and (iii) 16 future development assets totaling 8.8 million square feet (6.3 million square feet at our share) of estimated potential development density.
We derive our revenue primarily from leases with commercial and multifamily tenants, which include fixed and percentage rents, and reimbursements from tenants for certain expenses such as real estate taxes, property operating expenses, and repairs and maintenance. In addition, our third-party asset management and real estate services business provides fee-based real estate services.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions of Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements do not contain certain information required in annual financial statements and notes as required under GAAP. In our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The results of operations
10
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 22, 2022 ("Annual Report").
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our wholly owned subsidiaries and consolidated variable interest entities ("VIEs"), including JBG SMITH LP. See Note 5 for additional information on our VIEs. The portions of the equity and net income (loss) of consolidated entities that are not attributable to us are presented separately as amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests in our condensed consolidated financial statements.
References to our financial statements refer to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. References to our balance sheets refer to our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. References to our statements of operations refer to our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. References to our statements of comprehensive income (loss) refer to our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.
Income Taxes
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Under those sections, a REIT which distributes at least 90% of its REIT taxable income as dividends to its shareholders each year and which meets certain other conditions will not be taxed on that portion of its taxable income which is distributed to its shareholders. We currently adhere and intend to continue to adhere to these requirements and to maintain our REIT status in future periods. We also participate in the activities conducted by our subsidiary entities that have elected to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries under the Code. As such, we are subject to federal, state and local taxes on the income from those activities.
Reclassification
Intangible assets totaling $202.0 million were reclassified from "Other assets, net" to "Intangible assets, net" in our balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 to present intangible assets separately from other assets, which is consistent with our current year presentation.
2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Significant Accounting Policies
There were no material changes to our significant accounting policies disclosed in our Annual Report.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. The most significant of these estimates include: (i) the underlying cash flows and holding periods used in assessing impairment of our real estate assets; (ii) the determination of useful lives for tangible and intangible assets; and (iii) the assessment of the collectability of receivables, including deferred rent receivables. Longer estimated holding periods for real estate assets directly reduce the likelihood of recording an impairment loss. If there is a change in the strategy for an asset or if market conditions dictate an earlier sale date, an impairment loss may be recognized, and such loss could be material.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Reference Rate Reform
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform ("Topic 848"). Topic 848 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in Topic 848 is optional and may be elected over the period of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 as reference rate reform activities occur. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients that allows us to (i) continue to amortize previously deferred gains and losses in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to terminated hedges into earnings in accordance with the underlying hedged forecasted transactions, (ii) modify loan agreements to replace the reference rate without treating the change as a contract modification and (iii) modify the reference rate of the hedging instruments without it being considered a change in critical terms requiring redesignation. We have elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to (i) the assertion that our hedged forecasted transactions remain probable and (ii) the assessments of effectiveness for future London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the past presentation of our derivatives. We will continue to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections, as applicable.
3.Acquisition, Dispositions and Assets Held for Sale
Acquisition
On August 1, 2022, we acquired the remaining 36.0% ownership interest in an unconsolidated real estate venture that owned Atlantic Plumbing, a multifamily asset, which was encumbered by a $100.0 million mortgage, for a purchase price of $19.7 million and our partner’s share of the working capital. The mortgage was repaid on August 10, 2022. Atlantic Plumbing was consolidated as of the date of acquisition.

(2) | In connection with the preparation and review of the third quarter 2022 financial statements, an impairment loss of $15.4 million associated with certain commercial and future development assets located in Washington, D.C. was included in "Income (loss) from unconsolidated real estate ventures, net" in our statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. |
(3) | On August 1, 2022, we acquired the remaining 36.0% ownership interest in an unconsolidated real estate venture that owned Atlantic Plumbing, a multifamily asset. |
(4) | Our effective ownership interest reflects an investment in the real estate venture that owns 1101 17th Street for which we have a zero investment balance and discontinued applying the equity method of accounting. |
(5) | J.P. Morgan is the advisor for an institutional investor. |
(6) | On October 5, 2022, we acquired the remaining 50.0% ownership interest in 8001 Woodmont, a multifamily asset owned by the venture, for a purchase price of $115.0 million, including the assumption of the $51.9 million mortgage at our share. The asset is encumbered by a $103.8 million mortgage, which is consolidated in our balance sheet as of the date of acquisition. |
(7) | As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our total investments in unconsolidated real estate ventures were greater than our share of the net book value of the underlying assets by $4.4 million and $18.6 million, resulting principally from capitalized interest and our zero investment balance in certain real estate ventures. |
On April 13, 2022, we formed an unconsolidated real estate venture with affiliates of Fortress Investment Group LLC ("Fortress") to recapitalize a 1.6 million square foot office portfolio and land parcels for a gross sales price of $580.0 million comprising four wholly owned commercial assets (7200 Wisconsin Avenue, 1730 M Street, RTC-West and Courthouse Plaza 1 and 2). Additionally, we contributed $66.1 million in cash for a 33.5% interest in the venture, while Fortress contributed $131.0 million for a 66.5% interest in the venture. In connection with the transaction, the venture obtained mortgage loans totaling $458.0 million secured by the properties, of which $402.0 million was drawn at closing. We provide asset management, property management and leasing services to the venture. Because our interest in the venture is subordinated to a 15% preferred return to Fortress, we do not anticipate receiving any near-term cash flow distributions
13
from it. As of the transaction date, our investment in the venture was zero, and we have discontinued applying the equity method as we have not guaranteed its obligations or otherwise committed to providing financial support.
We provide leasing, property management and other real estate services to our unconsolidated real estate ventures. We recognized revenue, including expense reimbursements, of $6.1 million and $18.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, and $5.9 million and $17.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, for such services.
We evaluate reconsideration events as we become aware of them. Reconsideration events include, among other criteria, amendments to real estate venture agreements or changes in the capital requirements of the real estate venture. A reconsideration event could cause us to consolidate an unconsolidated real estate venture or deconsolidate a consolidated entity.

Includes an impairment loss of $16.1 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. |
5.Variable Interest Entities
We hold various interests in entities deemed to be VIEs, which we evaluate at acquisition, formation, after a change in the ownership agreement, after a change in the entity's economics or after any other reconsideration event to determine if the VIE should be consolidated in our financial statements or should no longer be considered a VIE. An entity is a VIE because it is in the development stage and/or does not hold sufficient equity at risk, or conducts substantially all its operations on behalf of an investor with disproportionately few voting rights. We will consolidate a VIE if we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE, which entails having the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. Certain criteria we assess in determining whether we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE include our influence over significant business activities, our voting rights and any noncontrolling interest kick-out or participating rights.
Unconsolidated VIEs
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had interests in entities deemed to be VIEs. Although we are engaged to act as the managing partner in charge of day-to-day operations of these entities, we are not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs, as we do not hold unilateral power over activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the respective VIE's economic performance. We account for our investment in these entities under the equity method. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the net carrying amounts of our investment in these entities was $84.7 million and $145.2 million, which were included in "Investments in unconsolidated real estate ventures" in our balance sheets. Our equity in the income of unconsolidated VIEs is included in "Income (loss) from unconsolidated real estate ventures, net" in our statements of operations. Our maximum loss exposure in these entities is limited to our investments, construction commitments and debt guarantees. See Note 17 for additional information.
15
Consolidated VIEs
JBG SMITH LP is our most significant consolidated VIE. We hold 88.3% of the limited partnership interest in JBG SMITH LP, act as the general partner and exercise full responsibility, discretion and control over its day-to-day management. The noncontrolling interests of JBG SMITH LP do not have substantive liquidation rights, substantive kick-out rights without cause or substantive participating rights that could be exercised by a simple majority of noncontrolling interest limited partners (including by such a limited partner unilaterally). Because the noncontrolling interest holders do not have these rights, JBG SMITH LP is a VIE. As general partner, we have the power to direct the activities of JBG SMITH LP that most significantly affect its economic performance, and through our majority interest, we have both the right to receive benefits from and the obligation to absorb losses of JBG SMITH LP. Accordingly, we are the primary beneficiary of JBG SMITH LP and consolidate it in our financial statements. Because we conduct our business through JBG SMITH LP, its total assets and liabilities comprise substantially all of our consolidated assets and liabilities.
In conjunction with the acquisition of The Batley in November 2021, we entered into an agreement with a qualified intermediary to facilitate a like-kind exchange. As a result, the qualified intermediary was the legal owner of the entity that owned this property as of December 31, 2021. We determined that the entity that owned the Batley was a VIE, and we were the primary beneficiary of the VIE. We consolidated the property and its operations as of the acquisition date. Legal ownership of this entity was transferred to us by the qualified intermediary when the like-kind exchange agreement was completed with the sale of Pen Place in May 2022.
As of September 30, 2022, excluding JBG SMITH LP, we consolidated two VIEs with total assets of $199.5 million and liabilities of $69.7 million. As of December 31, 2021, excluding JBG SMITH LP, we consolidated three VIEs with total assets of $269.7 million and liabilities of $13.9 million. The assets of the VIEs can only be used to settle the obligations of the VIEs, and the liabilities include third-party liabilities of the VIEs for which the creditors or beneficial interest holders do not have recourse against us.

(4) | As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, excludes $2.3 million and $6.4 million of net deferred financing costs related to unfunded mortgage loans that were included in "Other assets, net." |
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the net carrying value of real estate collateralizing our mortgages payable totaled $1.9 billion and $1.8 billion. Our mortgages payable contain covenants that limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness on these properties and, in certain circumstances, require lender approval of tenant leases and/or yield maintenance upon repayment prior to maturity. Certain mortgages payable are recourse to us. See Note 17 for additional information.
In August 2022, we entered into a mortgage with a principal balance of $97.5 million collateralized by WestEnd25. The mortgage loan has a seven-year term and an interest rate of SOFR plus 1.45%. We also entered into an interest rate swap with a total notional value of $97.5 million, which effectively fixes SOFR at an average interest rate of 2.71% through the maturity date.
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had various interest rate swap and cap agreements on certain mortgages payable with an aggregate notional value of $1.3 billion. See Note 15 for additional information.
Credit Facility
As of September 30, 2022, our $1.6 billion credit facility consisted of a $1.0 billion revolving credit facility maturing in January 2025, a $200.0 million unsecured term loan ("Tranche A-1 Term Loan") maturing in January 2025, and a $400.0 million unsecured term loan ("Tranche A-2 Term Loan") maturing in January 2028, of which $50.0 million remains available to be borrowed until July 2023.
In January 2022, the Tranche A-1 Term Loan was amended to extend the maturity date to January 2025 with two one-year extension options, and to amend the interest rate to SOFR plus 1.15% to SOFR plus 1.75%, varying based on a ratio of our total outstanding indebtedness to a valuation of certain real property and assets. In connection with the loan amendment, we amended the related interest rate swaps, extending the maturity to July 2024 and converting the hedged rate from one-month LIBOR to one-month term SOFR.
In July 2022, the Tranche A-2 Term Loan was amended to increase its borrowing capacity by $200.0 million. The incremental $200.0 million includes a delayed draw feature, of which $150.0 million was drawn in September 2022 and the remaining $50.0 million was undrawn as of the date of this filing. The amendment extends the maturity date of the term loan from July 2024 to January 2028 and amends the interest rate to SOFR plus 1.25% to SOFR plus 1.80%, varying based on a ratio of our total outstanding indebtedness to a valuation of certain real property and assets. We entered into two interest rate swaps with an effective date of September 30, 2022 and a total notional value of $150.0 million, which effectively fix SOFR at a weighted average interest rate of 2.15% through the maturity date. We also entered into two forward-starting

9.Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
JBG SMITH LP
OP Units held by persons other than JBG SMITH are redeemable for cash or, at our election, our common shares, subject to certain limitations. Vested LTIP Units are convertible into OP Units. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, unitholders redeemed 493,596 and 829,107 OP Units, which we elected to redeem for an equivalent number of our common shares. As of September 30, 2022, outstanding OP Units and redeemable LTIP Units totaled 15.1 million, representing an 11.7% ownership interest in JBG SMITH LP. Our OP Units and certain vested LTIP Units are presented at the higher of their redemption value or their carrying value, with adjustments to the redemption value recognized in "Additional paid-in capital" in our balance sheets. Redemption value per OP Unit is equivalent to the market value of one of our common shares at the end of the period.
Consolidated Real Estate Venture

11.Share-Based Payments
LTIP Units and Time-Based LTIP Units
In January 2022, we granted to certain employees 660,785 LTIP Units with time-based vesting requirements ("Time-Based LTIP Units") and a weighted average grant-date fair value of $27.41 per unit that vest ratably over four years subject to continued employment. Compensation expense for these units is being recognized over a four-year period.
In February 2022, we granted 252,206 fully vested LTIP Units to certain employees, who elected to receive all or a portion of their cash bonuses, related to 2021 service, as LTIP Units. The LTIP units had a weighted average grant-date fair value of $22.19 per unit. Compensation expense totaling $5.6 million for these LTIP Units was recognized in 2021.
In April 2022, as part of their annual compensation, we granted to non-employee trustees a total of 95,084 fully vested LTIP Units with a grant-date fair value of $20.90 per unit, which includes LTIP Units elected in lieu of cash retainers. The LTIP Units may not be sold while a trustee is serving on the Board of Trustees.
The aggregate grant-date fair value of the Time-Based LTIP Units and the LTIP Units granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $25.7 million. The Time-Based LTIP Units and the LTIP Units were valued based on the closing common share price on the grant date, less a discount for post-grant restrictions. The discount was determined using Monte Carlo simulations based on the following significant assumptions:
Expected volatility |
| 30.0% to 41.0% |
Risk-free interest rate |
| 0.4% to 2.9% |
Post-grant restriction periods |
| 2 to 6 years |
Appreciation-Only LTIP Units ("AO LTIP Units")
In January 2022, we granted to certain employees 1.5 million performance-based AO LTIP Units with a weighted average grant-date fair value of $4.44 per unit. The AO LTIP Units are structured in the form of profits interests that provide for a share of appreciation determined by the increase in the value of a common share at the time of conversion over the participation threshold of $32.30. The AO LTIP Units are subject to a TSR modifier whereby the number of AO LTIP Units that will ultimately be earned will be increased or reduced by as much as 25%. The AO LTIP Units have a three-year performance period with 50% of the AO LTIP Units that are earned vesting at the end of the three-year performance period and the remaining 50% vesting on the fourth anniversary of the grant date, subject to continued employment. The AO LTIP Units expire on the th anniversary of their grant date.
20
The aggregate grant-date fair value of the AO LTIP Units granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $6.6 million, valued using Monte Carlo simulations based on the following significant assumptions:
Expected volatility |
| 27.0% |
Dividend yield |
| 2.7% |
Risk-free interest rate |
| 1.6% |
Performance-Based LTIP Units
In January 2022, 469,624 LTIP Units with performance-based vesting requirements ("Performance-Based LTIP Units"), which were unvested as of December 31, 2021, were forfeited as the performance measures were not met.
ESPP
Pursuant to the ESPP, employees purchased 39,851 common shares for $801,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The following is a summary of the significant assumptions used to value the ESPP common shares using the Black-Scholes model:

The effect of the redemption of OP Units, Time-Based LTIP Units, fully vested LTIP Units and Special Time-Based LTIP Units that were outstanding as of September 30, 2022 and 2021 is excluded in the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per common share as the assumed exchange of such units for common shares on a one-for-one basis was antidilutive (the assumed redemption of these units would have no impact on the determination of diluted earnings (loss) per share). Since OP Units, Time-Based LTIP Units, LTIP Units and Special Time-Based LTIP Units, which are held by noncontrolling interests, are attributed gains at an identical proportion to the common shareholders, the gains attributable and their equivalent weighted average impact are excluded from net income (loss) available to common shareholders and from the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in calculating diluted earnings (loss) per common share. AO LTIP Units, Performance-Based LTIP Units, Formation Awards and RSUs, which totaled 5.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 5.2 million and 4.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings (loss) per common share as they were antidilutive, but potentially could be dilutive in the future.
Dividends Declared in October 2022
On October 25, 2022, our Board of Trustees declared a quarterly dividend of $0.225 per common share, payable on November 22, 2022 to shareholders of record as of November 8, 2022.
15.Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis
To manage or hedge our exposure to interest rate risk, we follow established risk management policies and procedures, including the use of a variety of derivative financial instruments. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had various derivative financial instruments consisting of interest rate swap and cap agreements that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The net unrealized gain (loss) on our derivative financial instruments designated as effective hedges was $54.2 million and ($17.2) million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and was recorded in "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)" in our balance sheets, of which a portion was allocated to "Redeemable noncontrolling interests." Within the next 12 months, we expect to reclassify $22.8 million of the net unrealized gain as a decrease to interest expense.
23
Accounting Standards Codification 820 ("Topic 820"), Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures, defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. The objective of fair value is to determine the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (the exit price). Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels:
Level 1 — quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities;
Level 2 — observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and
Level 3 — unobservable inputs that are used when little or no market data is available.
The fair values of the derivative financial instruments are based on the estimated amounts we would receive or pay to terminate the contracts at the reporting date and are determined using interest rate pricing models and observable inputs. The derivative financial instruments are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.
The following is a summary of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

The fair values of our derivative financial instruments were determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of the derivative financial instrument. This analysis reflected the contractual terms of the derivative, including the period to maturity, and used observable market-based inputs, including interest rate market data and implied volatilities in such interest rates. While it was determined that the majority of the inputs used to value the derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy under authoritative accounting guidance, the credit valuation adjustments associated with the derivatives also utilized Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default. However, as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of the derivative financial instruments was assessed, and it was determined that these adjustments were not significant to the overall valuation of the derivative financial instruments. As a result, it was determined that the derivative financial instruments in their entirety should be classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The net unrealized gains and losses included in "Other comprehensive income" in our statements of comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 were attributable to the net change in unrealized gains or losses related to effective interest rate swaps that were outstanding during those periods, none of which were reported in our statements of operations as the interest rate swaps were documented and qualified as hedging instruments.

Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured at Fair Value
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, all financial assets and liabilities were reflected in our balance sheets at amounts which, in our estimation, reasonably approximated their fair values, except for the following:

(1) | The carrying amount consists of principal only. |
The fair values of the mortgages payable, revolving credit facility and unsecured term loans were determined using Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of our mortgages payable is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows of these instruments using current risk-adjusted rates available to borrowers with similar credit profiles based on market sources. The fair value of our revolving credit facility and unsecured term loans is calculated based on the net present value of payments over the term of the facilities using estimated market rates for similar notes and remaining terms.
16.Segment Information
We review operating and financial data for each property on an individual basis; therefore, each of our individual properties is a separate operating segment. We define our reportable segments to be aligned with our method of internal reporting and the way our Chief Executive Officer, who is also our Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), makes key operating decisions, evaluates financial results, allocates resources and manages our business. Accordingly, we aggregate our operating segments into three reportable segments (commercial, multifamily, and third-party asset management and real estate services) based on the economic characteristics and nature of our assets and services. To conform to the current period presentation, we have reclassified the prior period segment financial data for 1700 M Street, for which we are the ground lessor, that had been classified as part of the commercial segment to other to better align with our internal reporting.
The CODM measures and evaluates the performance of our operating segments, with the exception of the third-party asset management and real estate services business, based on the net operating income ("NOI") of properties within each segment. NOI includes property rental revenue and parking revenue, and deducts property operating expenses and real estate taxes.
With respect to the third-party asset management and real estate services business, the CODM reviews revenue streams generated by this segment ("Third-party real estate services, including reimbursements"), as well as the expenses attributable to the segment ("General and administrative: third-party real estate services"), which are both disclosed separately in our statements of operations. The following represents the components of revenue from our third-party asset management and real estate services business:

17.Commitments and Contingencies
Insurance
We maintain general liability insurance with limits of $150.0 million per occurrence and in the aggregate, and property and rental value insurance coverage with limits of $1.5 billion per occurrence, with sub-limits for certain perils such as floods and earthquakes on each of our properties. We also maintain coverage, through our wholly owned captive insurance subsidiary, for a portion of the first loss on the above limits and for both terrorist acts and for nuclear, biological, chemical or radiological terrorism events with limits of $2.0 billion per occurrence. These policies are partially reinsured by third-party insurance providers.
We will continue to monitor the state of the insurance market, and the scope and costs of coverage for acts of terrorism. We cannot anticipate what coverage will be available on commercially reasonable terms in the future. We are responsible for deductibles and losses in excess of the insurance coverage, which could be material.
28
Our debt, consisting of mortgages payable secured by our properties, a revolving credit facility and unsecured term loans, contains customary covenants requiring adequate insurance coverage. Although we believe that we currently have adequate insurance coverage, we may not be able to obtain an equivalent amount of coverage at a reasonable cost in the future. If lenders insist on greater coverage than we are able to obtain, it could adversely affect our ability to finance or refinance our properties.
Construction Commitments
As of September 30, 2022, we had assets under construction that, based on our current plans and estimates, require an additional $468.1 million to complete, which we anticipate will be primarily expended over the next
to three years. These capital expenditures are generally due as the work is performed, and we expect to finance them with debt proceeds, proceeds from asset sales and recapitalizations, and available cash.Environmental Matters
Most of our assets have been subject to environmental assessments that are intended to evaluate the environmental condition of the assets. The environmental assessments did not reveal any material environmental contamination that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our overall business, financial condition or results of operations, or that have not been anticipated and remediated during site redevelopment as required by law. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that the identification of new areas of contamination, changes in the extent or known scope of contamination, the discovery of additional sites or changes in cleanup requirements would not result in significant cost to us. Environmental liabilities totaled $18.0 million and $18.2 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and are included in "Other liabilities, net" in our balance sheets.
Other
As of September 30, 2022, we had committed tenant-related obligations totaling $67.3 million ($64.9 million related to our consolidated entities and $2.4 million related to our unconsolidated real estate ventures at our share). The timing and amounts of payments for tenant-related obligations are uncertain and may only be due upon satisfactory performance of certain conditions.
There are various legal actions against us in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, the outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
From time to time, we (or ventures in which we have an ownership interest) have agreed, and may in the future agree with respect to unconsolidated real estate ventures, to (i) guarantee portions of the principal, interest and other amounts in connection with borrowings, (ii) provide customary environmental indemnifications and nonrecourse carve-outs (e.g., guarantees against fraud, misrepresentation and bankruptcy) in connection with borrowings or (iii) provide guarantees to lenders and other third parties for the completion of development projects. We customarily have agreements with our outside venture partners whereby the partners agree to reimburse the real estate venture or us for their share of any payments made under certain of these guarantees. At times, we also have agreements with certain of our outside venture partners whereby we agree to either indemnify the partners and/or the associated ventures with respect to certain contingent liabilities associated with operating assets or to reimburse our partner for its share of any payments made by them under certain guarantees. Guarantees (excluding environmental) customarily terminate either upon the satisfaction of specified circumstances or repayment of the underlying debt. Amounts that we may be required to pay in future periods in relation to guarantees associated with budget overruns or operating losses are not estimable.
As of September 30, 2022, we had additional capital commitments and certain recorded guarantees to our unconsolidated real estate ventures and other investments totaling $64.0 million. As of September 30, 2022, we had no principal payment guarantees related to our unconsolidated real estate ventures.
Additionally, with respect to borrowings of our consolidated entities, we have agreed, and may in the future agree, to (i) guarantee portions of the principal, interest and other amounts, (ii) provide customary environmental indemnifications and nonrecourse carve-outs (e.g., guarantees against fraud, misrepresentation and bankruptcy) or (iii) provide guarantees to
29
lenders, tenants and other third parties for the completion of development projects. As of September 30, 2022, the aggregate amount of principal payment guarantees was $8.3 million for our consolidated entities.
In connection with the Formation Transaction, we have an agreement with Vornado regarding tax matters (the "Tax Matters Agreement") that provides special rules that allocate tax liabilities if the distribution of JBG SMITH shares by Vornado, together with certain related transactions, is determined not to be tax-free. Under the Tax Matters Agreement, we may be required to indemnify Vornado against any taxes and related amounts and costs resulting from a violation by us of the Tax Matters Agreement.
18.Transactions with Related Parties
Our third-party asset management and real estate services business provides fee-based real estate services to the WHI, the JBG Legacy Funds and other third parties. In connection with the contribution to us of certain assets formerly owned by the JBG Legacy Funds as part of the Formation Transaction, the general partner and managing member interests in the JBG Legacy Funds that were held by certain former JBG executives (and who became members of our management team and/or Board of Trustees) were not transferred to us and remain under the control of these individuals. In addition, certain members of our senior management team and Board of Trustees have ownership interests in the JBG Legacy Funds, and own carried interests in each fund and in certain of our real estate ventures that entitle them to receive cash payments if the fund or real estate venture achieves certain return thresholds.
We launched the WHI with the Federal City Council in June 2018 as a scalable market-driven model that uses private capital to help address the scarcity of housing for middle income families. We are the manager for the WHI Impact Pool, which is the social impact debt financing vehicle of the WHI. As of September 30, 2022, the WHI Impact Pool had completed closings of capital commitments totaling $114.4 million, which included a commitment from us of $11.2 million. As of September 30, 2022, our remaining unfunded commitment was $6.2 million.
The third-party real estate services revenue, including expense reimbursements, from the JBG Legacy Funds and the WHI Impact Pool and its affiliates was $4.9 million and $15.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, and $5.6 million and $17.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had receivables from the JBG Legacy Funds and the WHI Impact Pool and its affiliates totaling $4.1 million and $3.2 million for such services.
We rented our former corporate offices from an unconsolidated real estate venture and made payments totaling $214,000 and $922,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, and $246,000 and $1.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.
We have agreements with Building Maintenance Services ("BMS"), an entity in which we have a minor preferred interest, to supervise cleaning, engineering and security services at our properties. We paid BMS $2.7 million and $7.8 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, and $4.9 million and $13.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, which is included in "Property operating expenses" in our statements of operations.

Organization and Basis of Presentation
JBG SMITH Properties ("JBG SMITH"), a Maryland real estate investment trust ("REIT"), owns and operates a portfolio of commercial and multifamily assets amenitized with ancillary retail. JBG SMITH's portfolio reflects its longstanding strategy of owning and operating assets within Metro-served submarkets in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area with high barriers to entry and vibrant urban amenities. Approximately two-thirds of our portfolio is in National Landing in Northern Virginia where we serve as the developer for Amazon.com, Inc.'s ("Amazon") new headquarters and where Virginia Tech's $1 billion Innovation Campus is under construction. In addition, our third-party asset management and real estate services business provides fee-based real estate services to the Washington Housing Initiative ("WHI") Impact Pool, the legacy funds formerly organized by The JBG Companies ("JBG") (the "JBG Legacy Funds") and other third parties. Substantially all our assets are held by, and our operations are conducted through, JBG SMITH Properties LP ("JBG SMITH LP"), our operating partnership. JBG SMITH is referred to as "we," "us," "our" or other similar terms. References to "our share" refer to our ownership percentage of consolidated and unconsolidated assets in real estate ventures, but exclude our 10.0% subordinated interest in one commercial building and our 33.5% subordinated interest in four commercial buildings, as well as the associated non-recourse mortgages payable, held through unconsolidated real estate ventures; these interests and debt are excluded because our investment in each real estate venture is zero, we do not anticipate receiving any near-term cash flow distributions from the real estate ventures and we have not guaranteed their obligations or otherwise committed to providing financial support. Occupancy, non-GAAP financial measures, leverage metrics, operating assets and operating metrics also exclude these subordinated interests.
We were organized for the purpose of receiving, via the spin-off on July 17, 2017 (the "Separation"), substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Vornado Realty Trust's ("Vornado") Washington, D.C. segment. On July 18, 2017, we acquired the management business, and certain assets and liabilities of JBG (the "Combination"). The Separation and the Combination are collectively referred to as the "Formation Transaction."
References to our financial statements refer to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. References to our balance sheets refer to our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. References to our statements of operations refer to our condensed consolidated statements of
31
operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. References to our statements of cash flows refer to our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.
The accompanying financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Under those sections, a REIT which distributes at least 90% of its REIT taxable income as dividends to its shareholders each year and which meets certain other conditions will not be taxed on that portion of its taxable income which is distributed to its shareholders. We currently adhere and intend to continue to adhere to these requirements and to maintain our REIT status in future periods. We also participate in the activities conducted by our subsidiary entities that have elected to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries under the Code. As such, we are subject to federal, state and local taxes on the income from those activities.
We aggregate our operating segments into three reportable segments (commercial, multifamily, and third-party asset management and real estate services) based on the economic characteristics and nature of our assets and services.
Our revenues and expenses are, to some extent, subject to seasonality during the year, which impacts quarterly net earnings, cash flows and funds from operations; this seasonality affects the sequential comparison of our results in individual quarters over time. For instance, we have historically experienced higher utility costs in the first and third quarters of the year.
We compete with many property owners and developers. Our success depends upon, among other factors, trends affecting national and local economies, the financial condition and operating results of current and prospective tenants, the availability and cost of capital, interest rates, construction and renovation costs, taxes, governmental regulations and legislation, population trends, zoning laws, and our ability to lease, sublease or sell our assets at profitable levels. Our success is also subject to our ability to refinance existing debt on acceptable terms as it comes due.
Overview
As of September 30, 2022, our Operating Portfolio consisted of 56 operating assets comprising 35 commercial assets totaling 10.5 million square feet (8.9 million square feet at our share), 19 multifamily assets totaling 7,359 units (6,608 units at our share) and two wholly owned land assets for which we are the ground lessor. Additionally, we have: (i) two under-construction multifamily assets with 1,583 units (1,583 units at our share); (ii) eight near-term development assets totaling 3.7 million square feet (3.5 million square feet at our share) of estimated potential development density; and (iii) 16 future development assets totaling 8.8 million square feet (6.3 million square feet at our share) of estimated potential development density.
We continue to implement our comprehensive plan to reposition our holdings in National Landing in Northern Virginia by executing a broad array of Placemaking strategies. Our Placemaking includes the delivery of new multifamily and office developments, locally sourced amenity retail, and thoughtful improvements to the streetscape, sidewalks, parks and other outdoor gathering spaces. In keeping with our dedication to Placemaking, each new project is intended to contribute to authentic and distinct neighborhoods by creating a vibrant street environment with robust retail offerings and other amenities, including improved public spaces. Additionally, the cutting-edge digital infrastructure investments we are making, including our ownership of Citizens Broadband Radio Service wireless spectrum in National Landing and our agreements with AT&T and Federated Wireless, are advancing our efforts to make National Landing among the first 5G-operable submarkets in the nation.
In November 2018, Amazon announced it had selected sites in National Landing as the location of its new headquarters. We currently have leases with Amazon totaling 1.0 million square feet at six office buildings in National Landing. We have sold to Amazon two of our National Landing development sites, Metropolitan Park and Pen Place. We are currently constructing two new office buildings for Amazon on Metropolitan Park, totaling 2.1 million square feet, inclusive of over
32
50,000 square feet of street-level retail with new shops and restaurants. We are the developer, property manager and retail leasing agent for Amazon's new headquarters at National Landing.
Outlook
A fundamental component of our strategy to maximize long-term net asset value ("NAV") per share is active capital allocation. We evaluate development, acquisition, disposition, share repurchases and other investment decisions based on how they may impact long-term NAV per share. We intend to continue to opportunistically sell non-core office assets as well as land sites where a ground lease or joint venture execution may represent the most attractive path to maximizing value. Successful execution of our capital allocation strategy enables us to source capital at NAV from the disposition of assets generating low cash yields and invest those proceeds in new acquisitions with higher cash yields and growth, as well as in development projects with significant yield spreads and profit potential. We view this strategy as a key tool to source capital and intend to continue disposing of assets where the disparity in public and private market valuations is greatest. Consequently, at any given time, we expect to be in various stages of discussions and negotiations with potential buyers, real estate venture partners, ground lessors, and other counterparties with respect to sales, joint ventures, and/or ground leases for certain of our assets, including portfolios thereof. These discussions and negotiations may or may not lead to definitive documentation or closed transactions. We anticipate redeploying the proceeds from these sales will not only help fund our planned growth, but will also further advance the strategic shift of our portfolio to majority multifamily.
Our office portfolio occupancy as of September 30, 2022 declined by 20 basis points as compared to June 30, 2022. Although new leasing has been slow to recover from the pandemic and will likely continue to lag due to delayed return-to-the office plans and decision-making related to future office utilization, we were able to execute 207,000 square feet at our share of office leases during the quarter, over 50% of which comprised new leases in National Landing. We expect this lag to continue to impact our occupancy levels for the foreseeable future. We have seen an increase in the number of employees returning to the office and higher transient parking, with parking revenue in our commercial portfolio at approximately 79% of pre-pandemic levels of approximately $25 million annually, at our share.
Our multifamily portfolio occupancy as of September 30, 2022 improved by 140 basis points as compared to June 30, 2022. Average in-place rents ended the quarter 8.4% below asking rents. For third quarter lease expirations, we increased rents by 6.7% upon renewal while achieving a 57.1% renewal rate across our portfolio.

Property rental revenue decreased by approximately $6.1 million, or 4.8%, to $119.8 million in 2022 from $125.9 million in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $17.8 million decrease in revenue from our commercial assets, partially offset by a $10.6 million increase in revenue from our multifamily assets. The decrease in revenue from our commercial assets
35
was primarily due to an $18.2 million decrease related to the Disposed Properties. The increase in revenue from our multifamily assets was primarily due to (i) a $2.6 million increase related to The Batley, (ii) a $2.6 million increase at RiverHouse and The Bartlett due to higher occupancy and rents, (iii) a $2.1 million increase related to higher occupancy at several recently developed properties (West Half, The Wren, 900 W Street and 901 W Street) and (iv) a $1.7 million increase related to Atlantic Plumbing.
Third-party real estate services revenue, including reimbursements, decreased by approximately $4.0 million, or 15.5%, to $21.8 million in 2022 from $25.8 million in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $2.6 million decrease in development fees related to the timing of development projects and a $1.4 million decrease in reimbursement revenue.
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by approximately $6.7 million, or 11.8%, to $50.1 million in 2022 from $56.7 million in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $7.7 million decrease related to the Disposed Properties, which was partially offset by a $1.4 million increase related to The Batley.
Property operating expense decreased by approximately $3.8 million, or 9.5%, to $36.4 million in 2022 from $40.2 million in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $6.5 million decrease related to the Disposed Properties. The decrease in property operating expense was partially offset by (i) a $940,000 increase related to The Batley, (ii) a $756,000 increase in cleaning, and repairs and maintenance expenses across our same store portfolio and (iii) a $531,000 increase related to Atlantic Plumbing.
Real estate tax expense decreased by approximately $3.5 million, or 19.3%, to $14.7 million in 2022 from $18.3 million in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $3.7 million decrease related to the Disposed Properties.
General and administrative expense: corporate and other remained relatively unchanged at $12.1 million in 2022 and 2021 as a decrease in employee compensation costs was offset by an increase in travel and costs associated with employees working in the office.
General and administrative expense: third-party real estate services decreased by approximately $4.3 million, or 16.9%, to $21.2 million in 2022 from $25.5 million in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in reimbursable expenses.
General and administrative expense: share-based compensation related to Formation Transaction and special equity awards decreased by approximately $2.9 million, or 84.3%, to $548,000 in 2022 from $3.5 million in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to the graded vesting of certain awards issued in prior years, which resulted in lower expense as portions of the awards vested.
Transaction and other costs of $1.7 million in 2022 primarily included $1.0 million of severance costs and $600,000 of expenses related to completed, potential and pursued transactions. Transaction and other costs of $3.0 million in 2021 primarily included $1.4 million of demolition costs related to 2000/2001 South Bell Street and $1.4 million of expenses related to completed, potential and pursued transactions.
Income (loss) from unconsolidated real estate ventures decreased by approximately $34.4 million, or 167.6%, to a loss of $13.9 million for 2022 from income of $20.5 million in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $23.1 million gain at our share from the sale of 500 L'Enfant Plaza in 2021 and a $14.0 million increase in impairment losses in 2022 compared to 2021.
Interest expense increased by approximately $689,000, or 4.0%, to $17.9 million in 2022 from $17.2 million in 2021. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to (i) a $2.2 million increase due to new mortgage loans entered into during 2022 and 2021 at WestEnd25, 1225 S. Clark Street and 1215 S. Clark Street, (ii) a $954,000 increase at 4747 Bethesda due to rising interest rates and (iii) a $789,000 increase related to a higher average outstanding balance on our revolving credit facility. The increase in interest expense was partially offset by a $3.1 million increase in the fair value of our interest rate caps due to rising interest rates.

Property rental revenue decreased by approximately $2.5 million, or 0.7%, to $368.4 million in 2022 from $371.0 million in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $34.7 million decrease in revenue from our commercial assets, partially offset by a $30.4 million increase in revenue from our multifamily assets. The decrease in revenue from our commercial assets was primarily due to (i) a $36.8 million decrease related to the Disposed Properties and (ii) a $2.0 million decrease related to 2451 Crystal Drive due to construction management services provided to tenants in 2021, partially offset by (iii) a $3.4 million increase related to the commencement of a lease with Amazon at 2100 Crystal Drive. The increase in revenue from our multifamily assets was primarily due to (i) a $10.6 million increase related to higher occupancy at several recently developed properties (West Half, The Wren, 900 W Street and 901 W Street), (ii) an $8.0 million increase related to The Batley, (iii) a $7.8 million increase at RiverHouse, The Bartlett and 2221 S. Clark Street - Residential due to higher occupancy and rents and (iv) a $1.7 million increase related to Atlantic Plumbing.
Third-party real estate services revenue, including reimbursements, decreased by approximately $22.7 million, or 25.1%, to $68.0 million in 2022 from $90.7 million in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to (i) a $15.6 million decrease in development fees related to the timing of development projects, (ii) a $5.2 million decrease in reimbursement revenue due to the termination of a management agreement and (iii) a $1.8 million decrease in asset management fees due to the sale of assets within the JBG Legacy Funds.
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by approximately $20.5 million, or 11.5%, to $157.6 million in 2022 from $178.1 million in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $26.4 million decrease related to the Disposed Properties and a $4.9 million decrease related to 2345 Crystal Drive primarily due to the amortization and disposal of certain tenant improvements in 2021. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense was partially offset by an $8.6 million increase related to The Batley and a $1.2 million increase related to 1770 Crystal Drive due to Amazon taking occupancy.
Property operating expense increased by approximately $2.5 million, or 2.3%, to $112.5 million in 2022 from $109.9 million in 2021. The increase was primarily due to (i) a $5.6 million increase in utility, cleaning, repairs and maintenance, and other property expenses across our same store portfolio, (ii) a $2.7 million increase related to The Batley, (iii) a $2.5 million increase related to technology initiatives in National Landing, (iv) a $1.8 million increase related to higher occupancy at several recently developed properties (4747 Bethesda Avenue, West Half, The Wren, 900 W Street and 901 W Street), and (v) a $912,000 increase related to 2221 S. Clark Street – Residential due to higher property management and other operating expenses resulting from higher occupancy. The increase in property operating expense was partially offset by a $12.2 million decrease related to the Disposed Properties.
37
Real estate tax expense decreased by approximately $7.3 million, or 13.2%, to $47.9 million in 2022 from $55.1 million in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $7.4 million decrease related to the Disposed Properties.
General and administrative expense: corporate and other increased by approximately $4.2 million, or 10.9%, to $42.7 million in 2022 from $38.5 million in 2021. The increase was primarily due to an increase in compensation expense.
General and administrative expense: third-party real estate services decreased by approximately $7.6 million, or 9.5%, to $72.4 million in 2022 from $80.0 million in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in reimbursable expenses.
General and administrative expense: share-based compensation related to Formation Transaction and special equity awards decreased by approximately $8.5 million, or 66.0%, to $4.4 million in 2022 from $12.9 million in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to the graded vesting of certain awards issued in prior years, which resulted in lower expense as portions of the awards vested.
Transaction and other costs of $4.6 million in 2022 included (i) $2.2 million of expenses related to completed, potential and pursued transactions, (ii) $2.0 million of integration and severance costs and (iii) $428,000 of demolition costs primarily related to 223 23rd Street and 2250/2300 Crystal Drive. Transaction and other costs of $8.9 million in 2021 included (i) $5.4 million of expenses related to completed, potential and pursued transactions, (ii) $2.9 million of demolition costs related to 2000/2001 South Bell Street and (iii) $616,000 of integration and severance costs.
Income (loss) from unconsolidated real estate ventures decreased by approximately $36.3 million, or 154.6%, to a loss of $12.8 million for 2022 from income of $23.5 million in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $22.1 million reduction in gains at our share from the sale of various assets in 2022 as compared to 2021 and a $14.0 million increase in impairment losses in 2022 compared to 2021.
Interest and other income of $16.9 million in 2022 was primarily related to a realized gain of $13.9 million from the sale of investments in equity securities, which had been carried at cost, during the first quarter of 2022 and a $928,000 unrealized gain in 2022 related to equity investments carried at fair value.
Interest expense remained relatively unchanged at $50.3 million in 2022 and 2021. Interest expense decreased by $8.4 million due to an increase in the fair value of our interest rate caps as a result of rising interest rates and a $2.0 million increase in capitalized interest primarily related to 1900 Crystal Drive. The decrease in interest expense was offset by (i) a $4.1 million increase due to new mortgage loans entered into in 2022 and 2021 at WestEnd25, 1225 S. Clark Street and 1215 S. Clark Street, (ii) a $2.1 million increase related to a higher average outstanding balance on our revolving credit facility, (iii) a $1.6 million increase related to Courthouse Plaza 1 and 2 as its associated ground lease was reclassified to a finance lease in December 2021, (iv) a $1.3 million increase related to 4747 Bethesda Avenue due to rising interest rates, (v) a $947,000 increase related to additional draws on our term loans and (vi) a $565,000 increase related to Atlantic Plumbing.
Gain on the sale of real estate of $158.6 million in 2022 was primarily due to the sale of the Disposed Properties. See Note 3 to the financial statements for additional information. Gain on the sale of real estate of $11.3 million in 2021 was based on the cash received and the remeasurement of our retained interest in the land we contributed to one of our unconsolidated real estate ventures.
FFO
FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure computed in accordance with the definition established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("Nareit") in the Nareit FFO White Paper - 2018 Restatement. Nareit defines FFO as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding depreciation and amortization related to real estate, gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, gains and losses from change in control and impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity, including our share of such adjustments for unconsolidated real estate ventures.
38
We believe FFO is a meaningful non-GAAP financial measure useful in comparing our levered operating performance from period-to-period and as compared to similar real estate companies because FFO excludes real estate depreciation and amortization expense, which implicitly assumes that the value of real estate diminishes predictably over time rather than fluctuating based on market conditions and other non-comparable income and expenses. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash requirements and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), as a performance measure or cash flow as a liquidity measure. FFO may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
The following is the reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to FFO:

NOI and Same Store NOI
NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure management uses to assess a segment's performance. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders. We use NOI internally as a performance measure and believe NOI provides useful information to investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations because it reflects only property related revenue (which includes base rent, tenant reimbursements and other operating revenue, net of free rent and payments associated with assumed lease liabilities) less operating expenses and ground rent for operating leases, if applicable. NOI also excludes deferred rent, related party management fees, interest expense, and certain other non-cash adjustments, including the accretion of acquired below-market leases and the amortization of acquired above-market leases and below-market ground lease intangibles. Management uses NOI as a supplemental performance measure of our assets and believes it provides useful information to investors because it reflects only those revenue and expense items that are incurred at the asset level, excluding non-cash items. In addition, NOI is considered by many in the real estate industry to be a useful starting point for determining the value of a real estate asset or group of assets. However, because NOI excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of our assets that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures and capitalized leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our assets, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact the financial performance of our assets, the utility of NOI as a measure of the operating performance of our assets is limited. NOI presented by us may not be comparable to NOI reported by other REITs that define these measures differently. We believe to facilitate a clear understanding of our operating results, NOI should be examined in conjunction with net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders as presented in our consolidated financial statements. NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders as an indication of our performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity or our ability to make distributions.
39
Information provided on a same store basis includes the results of properties that are owned, operated and in-service for the entirety of both periods being compared, which excludes properties for which significant redevelopment, renovation or repositioning occurred during either of the periods being compared. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, our same store pool increased to 53 properties from 52 properties due to the inclusion of The Wren. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, our same store pool decreased to 52 properties from 55 properties due to the inclusion of West Half, 901 W Street, 900 W Street, 1770 Crystal Drive, and 4747 Bethesda Avenue, and the exclusion of The Alaire, The Terano, the Universal Buildings, 7200 Wisconsin Avenue, 1730 M Street, RTC-West, Courthouse Plaza 1 and 2, and Galvan, which were sold during the period. While there is judgment surrounding changes in designations, a property is removed from the same store pool when the property is considered to be under-construction because it is undergoing significant redevelopment or renovation pursuant to a formal plan or is being repositioned in the market and such renovation or repositioning is expected to have a significant impact on property NOI. A development property or under-construction property is moved to the same store pool once a substantial portion of the growth expected from the development or redevelopment is reflected in both the current and comparable prior year period. Acquisitions are moved into the same store pool once we have owned the property for the entirety of the comparable periods and the property is not under significant development or redevelopment.
Same store NOI increased $8.1 million, or 11.5%, to $78.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $70.0 million for the same period in 2021. Same store NOI increased $26.6 million, or 13.0%, to $231.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from $204.9 million for the same period in 2021. The increase was substantially attributable to (i) higher occupancy and rents and lower concessions in our multifamily portfolio, (ii) higher occupancy and average daily rates at the Crystal City Marriott, (iii) an increase in parking revenue in our commercial portfolio and (iv) abatement burn-off at certain assets.

Reportable Segments
We review operating and financial data for each property on an individual basis; therefore, each of our individual properties is a separate operating segment. We define our reportable segments to be aligned with our method of internal reporting and the way our Chief Executive Officer, who is also our Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), makes key operating decisions, evaluates financial results, allocates resources and manages our business. Accordingly, we aggregate our operating segments into three reportable segments (commercial, multifamily, and third-party asset management and real estate services) based on the economic characteristics and nature of our assets and services.
The CODM measures and evaluates the performance of our operating segments, with the exception of the third-party asset management and real estate services business, based on the NOI of properties within each segment.
41
With respect to the third-party asset management and real estate services business, the CODM reviews revenue streams generated by this segment ("Third-party real estate services, including reimbursements"), as well as the expenses attributable to the segment ("General and administrative: third-party real estate services"), which are both disclosed separately in our statements of operations. The following represents the components of revenue from our third-party asset management and real estate services business:

Consistent with internal reporting presented to our CODM and our definition of NOI, the third-party asset management and real estate services operating results are excluded from the NOI data below. To conform to the current period presentation, we have reclassified the prior period segment financial data for 1700 M Street, for which we are the ground lessor, that had been classified as part of the commercial segment to other to better align with our internal reporting.

Property revenue is calculated as property rental revenue plus parking revenue. Property expense is calculated as property operating expenses plus real estate taxes. Consolidated NOI is calculated as property revenue less property expense. See Note 16 to the financial statements for the reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders to consolidated NOI for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 to 2021
Commercial: Property revenue decreased by $17.5 million, or 18.9%, to $75.1 million in 2022 from $92.6 million in 2021. Consolidated NOI decreased by $7.1 million, or 13.3%, to $46.4 million in 2022 from $53.5 million in 2021. The decreases in property revenue and consolidated NOI were due to the Disposed Properties, which were partially offset by an increase at the Crystal City Marriott due to higher occupancy and an increase in parking revenue driven by an increase in both contract and transient parking.
Multifamily: Property revenue increased by $10.8 million, or 30.6%, to $45.9 million in 2022 from $35.1 million in 2021. Consolidated NOI increased by $8.5 million, or 53.0%, to $24.5 million in 2022 from $16.0 million in 2021. The increases in property revenue and consolidated NOI were due to the acquisition of The Batley in November 2021, and higher occupancy and rental rates across the portfolio. The increase in consolidated NOI was partially offset by an increase in operating costs.
Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 to 2021
Commercial: Property revenue decreased by $31.8 million, or 11.6%, to $242.8 million in 2022 from $274.6 million in 2021. Consolidated NOI decreased by $15.0 million, or 9.3%, to $147.5 million in 2022 from $162.5 million in 2021. The decreases in property revenue and consolidated NOI were due to the Disposed Properties, which were partially offset by an increase at the Crystal City Marriott due to higher occupancy, an increase in parking revenue driven by an increase in both contract and transient parking, and an increase at 2100 Crystal Drive due to the commencement of a lease with Amazon.
Multifamily: Property revenue increased by $30.7 million, or 30.5%, to $131.3 million in 2022 from $100.6 million in 2021. Consolidated NOI increased by $24.1 million, or 51.3%, to $71.0 million in 2022 from $46.9 million in 2021. The increases in property revenue and consolidated NOI were due to the acquisition of The Batley in November 2021, and
43
higher occupancy and rental rates across the portfolio. The increase in consolidated NOI was partially offset by an increase in operating costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Property rental income is our primary source of operating cash flow and depends on many factors including occupancy levels and rental rates, as well as our tenants' ability to pay rent. In addition, our third-party asset management and real estate services business provides fee-based real estate services to the WHI Impact Pool, the JBG Legacy Funds and other third parties. Our assets provide a relatively consistent level of cash flow that enables us to pay operating expenses, debt service, recurring capital expenditures, dividends to shareholders, and distributions to holders of OP Units and long-term incentive partnership units ("LTIP Units"). Other sources of liquidity to fund cash requirements include proceeds from financings, recapitalizations, asset sales, and the issuance and sale of securities. We anticipate that cash flows from continuing operations and proceeds from financings, asset sales and recapitalizations, together with existing cash balances, will be adequate to fund our business operations, debt amortization, capital expenditures, any dividends to shareholders, and distributions to holders of OP Units and LTIP Units over the next 12 months.

(4) | As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, excludes $2.3 million and $6.4 million of net deferred financing costs related to unfunded mortgage loans that were included in "Other assets, net." |
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the net carrying value of real estate collateralizing our mortgages payable totaled $1.9 billion and $1.8 billion. Our mortgages payable contain covenants that limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness on these properties and, in certain circumstances, require lender approval of tenant leases and/or yield maintenance upon repayment prior to maturity. Certain mortgages payable are recourse to us. See Note 17 to the financial statements for additional information.
In August 2022, we entered into a mortgage with a principal balance of $97.5 million collateralized by WestEnd25. The mortgage loan has a seven-year term and an interest rate of SOFR plus 1.45%. We also entered into an interest rate swap with a total notional value of $97.5 million, which effectively fixes SOFR at an average interest rate of 2.71% through the maturity date.
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had various interest rate swap and cap agreements on certain mortgages payable with an aggregate notional value $1.3 billion. See Note 15 to the financial statements for additional information.

Credit Facility
As of September 30, 2022, our $1.6 billion credit facility consisted of a $1.0 billion revolving credit facility maturing in January 2025, a $200.0 million Tranche A-1 Term Loan maturing in January 2025, and a $400.0 million Tranche A-2 Term Loan maturing in January 2028, of which $50.0 million remains available to be borrowed until July 2023.
In January 2022, the Tranche A-1 Term Loan was amended to extend the maturity date to January 2025 with two one-year extension options, and to amend the interest rate to SOFR plus 1.15% to SOFR plus 1.75%, varying based on a ratio of our total outstanding indebtedness to a valuation of certain real property and assets. In connection with the loan amendment, we amended the related interest rate swaps, extending the maturity to July 2024 and converting the hedged rate from one-month LIBOR to one-month term SOFR.
In July 2022, the Tranche A-2 Term Loan was amended to increase its borrowing capacity by $200.0 million. The incremental $200.0 million includes a delayed draw feature, of which $150.0 million was drawn in September 2022 and the remaining $50.0 million was undrawn as of the date of this filing. The amendment extends the maturity date of the term loan from July 2024 to January 2028 and amends the interest rate to SOFR plus 1.25% to SOFR plus 1.80%, varying based on a ratio of our total outstanding indebtedness to a valuation of certain real property and assets. We entered into two interest rate swaps with an effective date of September 30, 2022 and a total notional value of $150.0 million, which effectively fix SOFR at a weighted average interest rate of 2.15% through the maturity date. We also entered into two forward-starting interest rate swaps with an effective date of July 2024 and a total notional value of $200.0 million, which will effectively fix SOFR at a weighted average interest rate of 2.80% through the maturity date. Additionally, we amended the interest rate of the revolving credit facility to SOFR plus 1.15% to SOFR plus 1.60%, varying based on a ratio of our total outstanding indebtedness to a valuation of certain real property and assets.

In October 2022, we repaid the outstanding balance under our revolving credit facility. |

As of September 30, 2022, we had floating rate debt with a principal balance totaling $882.7 million and hedging arrangements with a notional value totaling $1.0 billion that use LIBOR as a reference rate. On November 30, 2020, the United Kingdom regulator announced its intentions, subject to confirmation following an early December consultation, to cease the publication of the one-week and two-month USD-LIBOR immediately following the December 31, 2021 publications, and the remaining USD-LIBOR tenors immediately following the June 30, 2023 publications. Though an alternative reference rate for LIBOR, SOFR, exists, significant uncertainties still remain. We can provide no assurance regarding the future of LIBOR and when our LIBOR-based instruments will transition from LIBOR as a reference rate to SOFR or another reference rate. The discontinuation of a benchmark rate or other financial metric, changes in a benchmark rate or other financial metric, or changes in market perceptions of the acceptability of a benchmark rate or other financial
45
metric, including LIBOR, could, among other things, result in increased interest payments, changes to our risk exposures, or require renegotiation of previous transactions. In addition, any such discontinuation or changes, whether actual or anticipated, could result in market volatility, adverse tax or accounting effects, increased compliance, legal and operational costs, and risks associated with contract negotiations.
Common Shares Repurchased
In March 2020, our Board of Trustees authorized the repurchase of up to $500.0 million of our outstanding common shares, which it increased to an aggregate of $1.0 billion in June 2022. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we repurchased and retired 2.3 million and 14.2 million common shares for $54.0 million and $361.0 million, a weighted average purchase price per share of $23.35 and $25.49. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, we repurchased and retired 2.3 million and 2.9 million common shares for $68.9 million and $88.1 million, a weighted average purchase price per share of $29.73 and $29.99. Since we began the share repurchase program, we have repurchased and retired 23.3 million common shares for $623.5 million, a weighted average purchase price per share of $26.74.
Purchases under the program are made either in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions from time to time as permitted by federal securities laws and other legal requirements. The timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases will be determined by us at our discretion and will be subject to economic and market conditions, share price, applicable legal requirements and other factors. The program may be suspended or discontinued at our discretion without prior notice.
Material Cash Requirements
Our material cash requirements for the next 12 months and beyond include:
● | normal recurring expenses; |
● | debt service and principal repayment obligations, including balloon payments on maturing debt — As of September 30, 2022, we had no mortgages payable on a consolidated basis and $22.5 million at our share scheduled to mature in 2022. In October 2022, we repaid the outstanding balance on our revolving credit facility of $100.0 million; |
● | capital expenditures, including major renovations, tenant improvements and leasing costs — As of September 30, 2022, we had committed tenant-related obligations totaling $67.3 million ($64.9 million related to our consolidated entities and $2.4 million related to our unconsolidated real estate ventures at our share); |
● | development expenditures — As of September 30, 2022, we had assets under construction that, based on our current plans and estimates, require an additional $468.1 million to complete, which we anticipate will be primarily expended over the next two to three years; |
● | dividends to shareholders and distributions to holders of OP Units and LTIP Units — On October 25, 2022, our Board of Trustees declared a quarterly dividend of $0.225 per common share; |
● | possible common share repurchases; and |
● | possible acquisitions of properties, either directly or indirectly through the acquisition of equity interests – On October 5, 2022, we acquired the remaining 50.0% ownership interest in 8001 Woodmont, a multifamily asset owned by an unconsolidated real estate venture, for a purchase price of $115.0 million, including the assumption of the $51.9 million mortgage at our share. The asset is encumbered by a $103.8 million mortgage, which is consolidated in our balance sheet as of the date of acquisition. On October 4, 2022, we acquired an additional 3.7% ownership interest in The Wren, a multifamily asset owned by a consolidated real estate venture, for $9.5 million, increasing our ownership interest to 99.7%. |
We expect to satisfy these needs using one or more of the following:
● | cash and cash equivalents — As of September 30, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $258.9 million and had restricted cash of $188.0 million held by a qualified intermediary all of which was released in October 2022; |
● | cash flows from operations; |
● | distributions from real estate ventures; |
46
● | borrowing capacity under our current credit facility — As of September 30, 2022, we had $949.5 million of availability under our credit facility, including $50.0 million undrawn under our Tranche A-2 Term Loan; and |
● | proceeds from financings, asset sales and recapitalizations. |
While we do not expect the need to do so during the next 12 months, we also can issue securities to raise funds.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, there were no significant changes to the material cash requirements information presented in Item 7 of Part II of our Annual Report, except for a $1.4 billion decrease in future finance lease payments related to the Disposed Properties, a $200.0 million net decrease in the principal amount due on our revolving credit facility, a $164.8 million decrease in the principal amount due on mortgages payable related to the Disposed Properties, a $150.0 million draw under our unsecured term loan and a new mortgage loan with a principal balance of $97.5 million collateralized by WestEnd25.
See additional information in the following pages under "Commitments and Contingencies."

Cash Flows for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022
Cash and cash equivalents, and restricted cash increased $169.8 million to $471.9 million as of September 30, 2022, compared to $302.1 million as of December 31, 2021. This increase resulted from $674.4 million of net cash provided by investing activities and $130.4 million of net cash provided by operating activities, partially offset by $635.0 million of net cash used in financing activities. Our outstanding debt was $2.4 billion and $2.5 billion as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Net cash provided by operating activities of $130.4 million primarily comprised: (i) $140.1 million of net income (before $178.9 million of non-cash items and a $158.6 million gain on the sale of real estate), (ii) $8.5 million of return on capital from unconsolidated real estate ventures and (iii) $18.2 million of net change in operating assets and liabilities. Non-cash income adjustments of $178.9 million primarily include depreciation and amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, deferred rent, net income from investments, amortization of lease incentives and other non-cash items.
Net cash provided by investing activities of $674.4 million comprised: (i) $923.1 million of proceeds from the sale of real estate, (ii) $54.8 million of distributions of capital from unconsolidated real estate ventures and (iii) $19.0 million of proceeds from the sale of investments, partially offset by (iv) $218.8 million of development costs, construction in progress and real estate additions, (v) $86.7 million of investments in unconsolidated real estate ventures and other investments and (vi) $15.2 million for the acquisition of real estate.
Net cash used in financing activities of $635.0 million primarily comprised: (i) $361.0 million of common shares repurchased, (ii) $300.0 million of repayments of our revolving credit facility, (iii) $268.6 million of repayments of mortgages payable, (iv) $82.1 million of dividends paid to common shareholders and (v) $12.4 million of distributions to our redeemable noncontrolling interests, partially offset by (vi) $150.0 million of borrowings under our unsecured term loan, (vii) $134.3 million of borrowings under mortgages payable, (viii) $100.0 million of borrowings under our revolving credit facility and (ix) $9.4 million of contributions from noncontrolling interests.
47
Unconsolidated Real Estate Ventures
We consolidate entities in which we have a controlling interest or are the primary beneficiary in a variable interest entity. From time to time, we may have off-balance-sheet unconsolidated real estate ventures and other unconsolidated arrangements with varying structures.
As of September 30, 2022, we had investments in unconsolidated real estate ventures totaling $360.8 million. For these investments, we exercise significant influence over but do not control these entities and, therefore, account for these investments using the equity method of accounting. For a more complete description of our real estate ventures, see Note 4 to the financial statements.
From time to time, we (or ventures in which we have an ownership interest) have agreed, and may in the future agree with respect to unconsolidated real estate ventures, to (i) guarantee portions of the principal, interest and other amounts in connection with borrowings, (ii) provide customary environmental indemnifications and nonrecourse carve-outs (e.g., guarantees against fraud, misrepresentation and bankruptcy) in connection with borrowings or (iii) provide guarantees to lenders and other third parties for the completion of development projects. We customarily have agreements with our outside venture partners whereby the partners agree to reimburse the real estate venture or us for their share of any payments made under certain of these guarantees. At times, we also have agreements with certain of our outside venture partners whereby we agree to either indemnify the partners and/or the associated ventures with respect to certain contingent liabilities associated with operating assets or to reimburse our partner for its share of any payments made by them under certain guarantees. Guarantees (excluding environmental) customarily terminate either upon the satisfaction of specified circumstances or repayment of the underlying debt. Amounts that we may be required to pay in future periods in relation to guarantees associated with budget overruns or operating losses are not estimable.
As of September 30, 2022, we had additional capital commitments and certain recorded guarantees to our unconsolidated real estate ventures and other investments totaling $64.0 million. As of September 30, 2022, we had no principal payment guarantees related to our unconsolidated real estate ventures.
We evaluate reconsideration events as we become aware of them. Reconsideration events include, among other criteria, amendments to real estate venture agreements or changes in the capital requirements of the real estate venture. A reconsideration event could cause us to consolidate an unconsolidated real estate venture or deconsolidate a consolidated entity.
Commitments and Contingencies
Insurance
We maintain general liability insurance with limits of $150.0 million per occurrence and in the aggregate, and property and rental value insurance coverage with limits of $1.5 billion per occurrence, with sub-limits for certain perils such as floods and earthquakes on each of our properties. We also maintain coverage, through our wholly owned captive insurance subsidiary, for a portion of the first loss on the above limits and for both terrorist acts and for nuclear, biological, chemical or radiological terrorism events with limits of $2.0 billion per occurrence. These policies are partially reinsured by third-party insurance providers.
We will continue to monitor the state of the insurance market, and the scope and costs of coverage for acts of terrorism. We cannot anticipate what coverage will be available on commercially reasonable terms in the future. We are responsible for deductibles and losses in excess of the insurance coverage, which could be material.
Our debt, consisting of mortgages payable secured by our properties, a revolving credit facility and unsecured term loans, contains customary covenants requiring adequate insurance coverage. Although we believe that we currently have adequate insurance coverage, we may not be able to obtain an equivalent amount of coverage at a reasonable cost in the future. If lenders insist on greater coverage than we are able to obtain, it could adversely affect our ability to finance or refinance our properties.
48
Construction Commitments
As of September 30, 2022, we had assets under construction that, based on our current plans and estimates, require an additional $468.1 million to complete, which we anticipate will be primarily expended over the next two to three years. These capital expenditures are generally due as the work is performed, and we expect to finance them with debt proceeds, proceeds from asset sales and recapitalizations, and available cash.
Other
As of September 30, 2022, we had committed tenant-related obligations totaling $67.3 million ($64.9 million related to our consolidated entities and $2.4 million related to our unconsolidated real estate ventures at our share). The timing and amounts of payments for tenant-related obligations are uncertain and may only be due upon satisfactory performance of certain conditions.
There are various legal actions against us in the ordinary course of business. In our opinion, the outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
With respect to borrowings of our consolidated entities, we have agreed, and may in the future agree, to (i) guarantee portions of the principal, interest and other amounts, (ii) provide customary environmental indemnifications and nonrecourse carve-outs (e.g., guarantees against fraud, misrepresentation and bankruptcy) or (iii) provide guarantees to lenders, tenants and other third parties for the completion of development projects. As of September 30, 2022, the aggregate amount of principal payment guarantees was $8.3 million for our consolidated entities.
In connection with the Formation Transaction, we have an agreement with Vornado regarding tax matters (the "Tax Matters Agreement") that provides special rules that allocate tax liabilities if the distribution of JBG SMITH shares by Vornado, together with certain related transactions, is determined not to be tax-free. Under the Tax Matters Agreement, we may be required to indemnify Vornado against any taxes and related amounts and costs resulting from a violation by us of the Tax Matters Agreement
Environmental Matters
Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, an owner of real estate is liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on such real estate. These laws often impose such liability without regard to whether the owner knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. The costs of remediation or removal of such substances may be substantial and the presence of such substances, or the failure to promptly remediate such substances, may adversely affect the owner's ability to sell such real estate or to borrow using such real estate as collateral. In connection with the ownership and operation of our assets, we may be potentially liable for such costs. The operations of current and former tenants at our assets have involved, or may have involved, the use of hazardous materials or generated hazardous waste. The release of such hazardous materials and waste could result in us incurring liabilities to remediate any resulting contamination. The presence of contamination or the failure to remediate contamination at our properties may (i) expose us to third-party liability (e.g., for cleanup costs, natural resource damages, bodily injury or property damage), (ii) subject our properties to liens in favor of the government for damages and costs the government incurs in connection with the contamination, (iii) impose restrictions on the manner in which a property may be used or which businesses may be operated, or (iv) materially adversely affect our ability to sell, lease or develop the real estate or to borrow using the real estate as collateral. In addition, our assets are exposed to the risk of contamination originating from other sources. While a property owner may not be responsible for remediating contamination that has migrated onsite from an identifiable and viable offsite source, the contaminant's presence can have adverse effects on operations and the redevelopment of our assets. To the extent we send contaminated materials to other locations for treatment or disposal, we may be liable for cleanup of those sites if they become contaminated.
Most of our assets have been subject to environmental assessments that are intended to evaluate the environmental condition of the assets. These environmental assessments generally have included a historical review, a public records review, a visual inspection of the site and surrounding assets, visual or historical evidence of underground storage tanks, and the preparation and issuance of a written report. Soil and/or groundwater subsurface testing is conducted at our assets, when necessary, to further investigate any issues raised by the initial assessment that could reasonably be expected to pose a material concern
49
to the property or result in us incurring material environmental liabilities as a result of redevelopment. They may not, however, have included extensive sampling or subsurface investigations. In each case where the environmental assessments have identified conditions requiring remedial actions required by law, we have initiated appropriate actions. The environmental assessments did not reveal any material environmental contamination that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our overall business, financial condition or results of operations, or that have not been anticipated and remediated during site redevelopment as required by law. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that the identification of new areas of contamination, changes in the extent or known scope of contamination, the discovery of additional sites or changes in cleanup requirements would not result in significant cost to us. As disclosed in Note 17 to the financial statements, environmental liabilities totaled $18.0 million and $18.2 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and are included in "Other liabilities, net" in our balance sheets.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
We have exposure to fluctuations in interest rates, which are sensitive to many factors that are beyond our control. The following is a summary of our annual exposure to a change in interest rates:

The fair value of our mortgages payable is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows of these instruments using current risk-adjusted rates available to borrowers with similar credit profiles based on market sources. The fair value of our revolving credit facility and unsecured term loans is calculated based on the net present value of payments over the term of the facilities using estimated market rates for similar notes and remaining terms. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the estimated fair value of our consolidated debt was $2.3 billion and $2.5 billion. These estimates of

fair value, which are made at the end of the reporting period, may be different from the amounts that may ultimately be realized upon the disposition of our financial instruments.
Hedging Activities
To manage or hedge our exposure to interest rate risk, we follow established risk management policies and procedures, including the use of a variety of derivative financial instruments. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.
Derivative Financial Instruments Designated as Effective Hedges
Certain derivative financial instruments, consisting of interest rate swap and cap agreements, are cash flow hedges that are designated as effective hedges, and are carried at their estimated fair value on a recurring basis. We assess the effectiveness of our hedges both at inception and on an ongoing basis. If the hedges are deemed to be effective, the fair value is recorded in "Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)" in our balance sheets and is subsequently reclassified into "Interest expense" in our statements of operations in the period that the hedged forecasted transactions affect earnings. Our hedges become less than perfectly effective if the critical terms of the hedging instrument and the forecasted transactions do not perfectly match such as notional amounts, settlement dates, reset dates, calculation period and interest rates. In addition, we evaluate the default risk of the counterparty by monitoring the creditworthiness of the counterparty. While management believes its judgments are reasonable, a change in a derivative's effectiveness as a hedge could materially affect expenses, net income (loss) and equity.
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had interest rate swap and cap agreements with an aggregate notional value of $1.4 billion and $862.7 million, which were designated as effective hedges. The fair value of our interest rate swaps and caps designated as effective hedges consisted of assets totaling $52.6 million and $393,000 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, included in "Other assets, net" in our balance sheets, and liabilities totaling $18.4 million as of December 31, 2021, included in "Other liabilities, net" in our balance sheet.
Derivative Financial Instruments Designated as Ineffective Hedges
Certain derivative financial instruments, consisting of interest rate swap and cap agreements, are cash flow hedges that are designated as ineffective hedges, and are carried at their estimated fair value on a recurring basis. Realized and unrealized gains or losses are recorded in "Interest expense" in our statements of operations. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had various interest rate swap and cap agreements with an aggregate notional value of $711.8 million and $867.7 million, which were designated as ineffective hedges. The fair value of our interest rate swaps and caps designated as ineffective hedges consisted of assets totaling $9.4 million and $558,000 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, included in "Other assets, net" in our balance sheets.
