Explanatory Note

This report combines the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 of Mid-America Apartment Communities, Inc., a Tennessee corporation, and Mid-America Apartments, L.P., a Tennessee limited partnership, of which Mid-America Apartment Communities, Inc. is the sole general partner. Mid-America Apartment Communities, Inc. and its 97.3% owned subsidiary, Mid-America Apartments, L.P., are both required to file quarterly reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “MAA” refer only to Mid-America Apartment Communities, Inc., and not any of its consolidated subsidiaries. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this report to “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company” refer collectively to Mid-America Apartment Communities, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries, including Mid-America Apartments, L.P. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this report to the “Operating Partnership” or “MAALP” refer to Mid-America Apartments, L.P. together with its consolidated subsidiaries. “Common stock” refers to the common stock of MAA, “preferred stock” refers to the preferred stock of MAA, and “shareholders” refers to the holders of shares of MAA’s common stock or preferred stock, as applicable. The common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership are referred to as “OP Units” and the holders of the OP Units are referred to as “common unitholders.”

As of June 30, 2022, MAA owned 115,438,832 OP Units (97.3% of the total number of OP Units). MAA conducts substantially all of its business and holds substantially all of its assets, directly or indirectly, through the Operating Partnership, and by virtue of its ownership of the OP Units and being the Operating Partnership’s sole general partner, MAA has the ability to control all of the day-to-day operations of the Operating Partnership.

We believe combining the periodic reports of MAA and the Operating Partnership, including the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements, into this report results in the following benefits:

•

enhances investors’ understanding of MAA and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner that management views and operates the business;

•

eliminates duplicative disclosure and provides a more streamlined and readable presentation since a substantial portion of the disclosure in this report applies to both MAA and the Operating Partnership; and

•

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

MAA, an S&P 500 company, is a multifamily-focused, self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust, or REIT. Management operates MAA and the Operating Partnership as one business. We believe it is important to understand the few differences between MAA and the Operating Partnership in the context of how MAA and the Operating Partnership operate as a consolidated company. MAA and the Operating Partnership are structured as an umbrella partnership REIT, or UPREIT. MAA’s interest in the Operating Partnership entitles MAA to share in cash distributions from, and in the profits and losses of, the Operating Partnership in proportion to MAA’s percentage interest therein and entitles MAA to vote on substantially all matters requiring a vote of the partners. MAA’s only material asset is its ownership of limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership (other than cash held by MAA from time to time); therefore, MAA’s primary function is acting as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, issuing public equity from time to time and guaranteeing certain debt of the Operating Partnership from time to time. The Operating Partnership holds, directly or indirectly, all of the real estate assets. Except for net proceeds from public equity issuances by MAA, which are contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for limited partnership interests, the Operating Partnership generates the capital required by the Company’s business through the Operating Partnership’s operations, direct or indirect incurrence of indebtedness and issuance of OP Units.

The presentation of MAA’s shareholders’ equity and the Operating Partnership’s capital are the principal areas of difference between the condensed consolidated financial statements of MAA and those of the Operating Partnership. MAA’s shareholders’ equity may include shares of preferred stock, shares of common stock, additional paid-in capital, cumulative earnings, cumulative distributions, noncontrolling interests, treasury shares, accumulated other comprehensive income or loss and redeemable common stock. The Operating Partnership’s capital may include common capital and preferred capital of the general partner (MAA), limited partners’ common capital and preferred capital, noncontrolling interests, accumulated other comprehensive income or loss and redeemable common units. Holders of OP Units (other than MAA) may require the Operating Partnership to redeem their OP Units from time to time, in which case the Operating Partnership may, at its option, pay the redemption price either in cash (in an amount per OP Unit equal, in general, to the average closing price of MAA’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, over a specified period prior to the redemption date) or by delivering one share of MAA’s common stock (subject to adjustment under specified circumstances) for each OP Unit so redeemed.

In order to highlight the material differences between MAA and the Operating Partnership, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes sections that separately present and discuss areas that are materially different between MAA and the Operating Partnership, including:

•

the condensed consolidated financial statements in Part 1, Item 1 of this report;

•

certain accompanying notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements, including Note 2 - Earnings per Common Share of MAA and Note 3 - Earnings per OP Unit of MAALP; Note 4 - MAA Equity and Note 5 - MAALP Capital; and Note 8 - Shareholders’ Equity of MAA and Note 9 - Partners’ Capital of MAALP;

•

the controls and procedures in Part 1, Item 4 of this report; and

•

the certifications included as Exhibits 31 and 32 to this report.

In the sections that combine disclosures for MAA and the Operating Partnership, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q refers to actions or holdings as being actions or holdings of the Company. Although the Operating Partnership (directly or indirectly through one of its subsidiaries) is generally the entity that enters into contracts, holds assets and issues debt, management believes this presentation is appropriate for the reasons set forth above and because we operate the business through the Operating Partnership. MAA, the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries operate as one consolidated business, but MAA, the Operating Partnership and each of its subsidiaries are separate, distinct legal entities.

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to the “Company” refer collectively to Mid-America Apartment Communities, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries, including Mid-America Apartments, L.P. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to “MAA” refer only to Mid-America Apartment Communities, Inc., and not any of its consolidated subsidiaries. Unless the context otherwise requires, the references to the “Operating Partnership” or “MAALP” refer to Mid-America Apartments, L.P., together with its consolidated subsidiaries. “Common stock” refers to the common stock of MAA, “preferred stock” refers to the preferred stock of MAA, and “shareholders” refers to the holders of shares of MAA’s common stock or preferred stock, as applicable. The common units of limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership are referred to as “OP Units,” and the holders of the OP Units are referred to as “common unitholders”.

As of June 30, 2022, MAA owned 115,438,832 OP Units (or 97.3% of the total number of OP Units). MAA conducts substantially all of its business and holds substantially all of its assets, directly or indirectly, through the Operating Partnership, and by virtue of its ownership of the OP Units and being the Operating Partnership’s sole general partner, MAA has the ability to control all of the day-to-day operations of the Operating Partnership.

Management believes combining the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements of MAA and the Operating Partnership results in the following benefits:

•

enhances a readers’ understanding of MAA and the Operating Partnership by enabling the reader to view the business as a whole in the same manner that management views and operates the business;

•

eliminates duplicative disclosure and provides a more streamlined and readable presentation since a substantial portion of the disclosure applies to both MAA and the Operating Partnership; and

•

creates time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined set of notes instead of two separate sets.

MAA, an S&P 500 company, is a multifamily-focused, self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust, or REIT. Management operates MAA and the Operating Partnership as one business. The management of the Company is comprised of individuals who are officers of MAA and employees of the Operating Partnership. Management believes it is important to understand the few differences between MAA and the Operating Partnership in the context of how MAA and the Operating Partnership operate as a consolidated company. MAA and the Operating Partnership are structured as an umbrella partnership REIT, or UPREIT. MAA’s interest in the Operating Partnership entitles MAA to share in cash distributions from, and in the profits and losses of, the Operating Partnership in proportion to MAA’s percentage interest therein and entitles MAA to vote on substantially all matters requiring a vote of the partners. MAA’s only material asset is its ownership of limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership (other than cash held by MAA from time to time); therefore, MAA’s primary function is acting as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, issuing public equity from time to time and guaranteeing certain debt of the Operating Partnership from time to time. The Operating Partnership holds, directly or indirectly, all of the Company’s real estate assets. Except for net proceeds from public equity issuances by MAA, which are contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for limited partnership interests, the Operating Partnership generates the capital required by the business through the Operating Partnership’s operations, direct or indirect incurrence of indebtedness and issuance of OP Units.

The presentations of MAA’s shareholders’ equity and the Operating Partnership’s capital are the principal areas of difference between the condensed consolidated financial statements of MAA and those of the Operating Partnership. MAA’s shareholders’ equity may include shares of preferred stock, shares of common stock, additional paid-in capital, cumulative earnings, cumulative distributions, noncontrolling interests, treasury shares, accumulated other comprehensive income or loss and redeemable common stock. The Operating Partnership’s capital may include common capital and preferred capital of the general partner (MAA), limited partners’ common capital and preferred capital, noncontrolling interests, accumulated other comprehensive income or loss and redeemable common units. Holders of OP Units (other than MAA) may require the Operating Partnership to redeem their OP Units from time to time, in which case the Operating Partnership may, at its option, pay the redemption price either in cash (in an amount per OP Unit equal, in general, to the average closing price of MAA’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, over a specified period prior to the redemption date) or by delivering one share of MAA’s common stock (subject to adjustment under specified circumstances) for each OP Unit so redeemed.

Organization of Mid-America Apartment Communities, Inc.

The Company owns, operates, acquires and selectively develops apartment communities primarily located in the Southeast, Southwest and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States. As of June 30, 2022, the Company owned and operated 290 apartment communities (which does not include development communities under construction) through the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries and had an ownership interest in one apartment community through an unconsolidated real estate joint venture. As of June 30, 2022, the Company also had five development communities under construction totaling 1,759 apartment units once complete. Total expected costs for the five development projects are $444.0

million, of which $230.4 million had been incurred through June 30, 2022. The Company expects to complete one of these developments in 2022, three developments in 2023, and one development in 2024. As of June 30, 2022, 33 of the Company’s apartment communities included retail components. The Company’s apartment communities, including development communities under construction, were located across 16 states and the District of Columbia as of June 30, 2022.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company’s management in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC. The condensed consolidated financial statements of MAA presented herein include the accounts of MAA, the Operating Partnership and all other subsidiaries in which MAA has a controlling financial interest. MAA owns, directly or indirectly, approximately 80% to 100% of all consolidated subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership. In management’s opinion, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements have been included, and all such adjustments were of a normal recurring nature. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company invests in entities that may qualify as variable interest entities, or VIEs, and MAALP is considered a VIE. A VIE is a legal entity in which the equity investors lack sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or, as a group, the holders of the equity investment at risk lack the power to direct the activities of a legal entity as well as the obligation to absorb its expected losses or the right to receive its expected residual returns. MAALP is classified as a VIE because the limited partners lack substantive kick-out rights and substantive participating rights. The Company consolidates all VIEs for which it is the primary beneficiary and uses the equity method to account for investments that qualify as VIEs but for which it is not the primary beneficiary. In determining whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, management considers both qualitative and quantitative factors, including, but not limited to, those activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and which party controls such activities. The Company uses the equity method of accounting for its investments in entities for which the Company exercises significant influence, but does not have the ability to exercise control. The factors considered in determining whether the Company has the ability to exercise control include ownership of voting interests and participatory rights of investors (see “Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates” below).

Noncontrolling Interests

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had two types of noncontrolling interests with respect to its consolidated subsidiaries: (1) noncontrolling interests related to the common unitholders of its Operating Partnership; and (2) noncontrolling interests related to its consolidated real estate entities. The noncontrolling interests relating to the limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership are owned by the holders of the Class A OP Units. MAA is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and holds all of the outstanding Class B OP Units. Net income (after allocations to preferred ownership interests) is allocated to MAA and the noncontrolling interests based on their respective ownership percentages of the Operating Partnership. Issuance of additional Class A OP Units or Class B OP Units changes the ownership percentage of both the noncontrolling interests and MAA. The issuance of Class B OP Units generally occurs when MAA issues common stock and the issuance proceeds are contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for Class B OP Units equal to the number of shares of MAA’s common stock issued. At each reporting period, the allocation between total MAA shareholders’ equity and noncontrolling interests is adjusted to account for the change in the respective percentage ownership of the underlying equity of the Operating Partnership. MAA’s Board of Directors established economic rights in respect to each Class A OP Unit that were equivalent to the economic rights in respect to each share of MAA common stock. See Note 9 for additional details.

The noncontrolling interests relating to the Company’s four consolidated real estate entities are owned by private real estate companies that are generally responsible for the development, construction and lease-up of the apartment communities that are owned through the consolidated real estate entities with a noncontrolling interest. The entities were determined to be VIE’s with the Company designated as the primary beneficiary. As a result, the accounts of the entities are consolidated by the Company. As of June 30, 2022, the consolidated assets of the Company’s consolidated real estate entities with a noncontrolling interest were $218.5 million, and consolidated liabilities were $14.7 million. As of December 31, 2021, the consolidated assets of the Company’s consolidated real estate entities with a noncontrolling interest were $252.8 million, and consolidated liabilities were $15.9 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company paid $43.1 million to acquire the noncontrolling interest of one consolidated real estate entity.

Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

The Company uses the equity method to account for its investments in a real estate joint venture and three technology-focused limited partnerships that each qualify as a VIE. Management determined the Company is not the primary beneficiary in any of these investments but does have the ability to exert significant influence over the operations and financial policies of the real estate joint venture and considers its investments in the limited partnerships to be more than minor. The Company’s investment in the real estate joint venture was $42.5 million and $42.8 million as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

The Company accounts for its investments in the technology-focused limited partnerships on a three month lag due to the timing the limited partnerships’ financial information is made available to the Company. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s investments in the limited partnerships were $44.6 million and $79.4 million, respectively, and are included in “Other assets” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The decrease in the Company’s investment in the limited partnerships was driven by the recognition of unrealized losses, which were primarily a result of a decrease in the valuation of an underlying investment that recently became publicly traded.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company was committed to make additional capital contributions totaling $31.7 million if and when called by the general partners of the limited partnerships.

Marketable Equity Securities

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, two of the technology-focused limited partnerships that are accounted for as unconsolidated affiliates distributed publicly traded marketable equity securities to the Company and the other limited partners. The Company’s investment in marketable equity securities is measured at fair value based on the quoted share price of the securities, with any related gains and losses, including unrealized gains and losses, recognized in “Other non-operating expense (income)” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s investment in the marketable equity securities was $9.8 million.

Revenue Recognition

The Company primarily leases multifamily residential apartments to residents under operating leases generally due on a monthly basis with terms of approximately one year or less. Rental revenues are recognized in accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases, using a method that represents a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. In addition, in circumstances where a lease incentive is provided to residents, the incentive is recognized as a reduction of rental revenues on a straight-line basis over the reasonably assured lease term. Rental revenues represent approximately 94% of the Company’s total revenues and include gross rents charged less adjustments for concessions and bad debt. Approximately 5% of the Company’s total revenues represent non-lease reimbursable property revenues from its residents for utility reimbursements, which are generally recognized and due on a monthly basis as residents obtain control of the service over the term of the lease. The remaining 1% of the Company’s total revenues represents other non-lease property revenues primarily driven by nonrefundable fees and commissions which are recognized when earned.

In accordance with ASC Topic 842, rental revenues and non-lease reimbursable property revenues meet the criteria to be aggregated into a single lease component and are reported on a combined basis in the line item “Rental revenues,” as presented in the disaggregation of the Company’s revenues in Note 11. Other non-lease property revenues are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires revenue recognized outside of the scope of ASC Topic 842 to be recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Other non-lease property revenues are reported in the line item “Other property revenues”, as presented in the disaggregation of the Company’s revenues in Note 11.

Leases

The Company is the lessee under certain ground, office, equipment and other operational leases, all of which are accounted for as operating leases in accordance with ASC Topic 842. The Company recognizes a right-of-use asset for the right to use the underlying asset for all leases where the Company is the lessee with terms of more than twelve months, and a related lease liability for the obligation to make lease payments. Expenses related to leases determined to be operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, right-of-use assets recorded within “Other assets” totaled $45.9 million and $47.0 million, respectively, and related lease liabilities recorded within “Accrued expenses and other liabilities” totaled $29.5 million and $30.3 million, respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Lease expense recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was immaterial to the Company. Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 was also immaterial. See Note 10 for additional disclosures regarding leases.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, to the valuation of real estate assets recorded at fair value, to its impairment valuation analysis of real estate assets and to its valuation and disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments, which primarily consists of marketable equity securities, indebtedness and derivative instruments. Fair value disclosures required under ASC Topic 820 as well as the Company’s derivative accounting policies are summarized in Note 7 utilizing the following hierarchy:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date.

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the assets or liability.

2. Earnings per Common Share of MAA

Basic earnings per share is computed using the two-class method by dividing net income available to MAA common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. All outstanding unvested restricted share awards contain rights to non-forfeitable dividends and participate in undistributed earnings with common shareholders and, accordingly, are considered participating securities that are included in the two-class method of computing basic earnings per share. Both the unvested restricted shares and other potentially dilutive common shares, and the related impact to earnings, are considered when calculating earnings per share on a diluted basis with diluted earnings per share being the more dilutive of the treasury stock or two-class methods. OP Units are included in dilutive earnings per share calculations when the units are dilutive to earnings per share.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, MAA’s diluted earnings per share was computed using the treasury stock method as presented below (dollars and shares in thousands, except per share amounts):


	Three months ended June 30,						Six months ended June 30,
	2022			2021			2022			2021

(1)

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, 3.2 million OP Units and their related income are not included in the diluted earnings per share calculations as they are not dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, 3.9 million OP Units and 4.0 million OP Units, respectively, and their related income are not included in the diluted earnings per share calculations as they are not dilutive.

3. Earnings per OP Unit of MAALP

Basic earnings per common unit is computed by dividing net income available for common unitholders by the weighted average number of OP Units outstanding during the period. All outstanding unvested restricted unit awards contain rights to non-forfeitable distributions and participate in undistributed earnings with common unitholders and, accordingly, are considered participating securities that are included in the two-class method of computing basic earnings per common unit. Diluted earnings per common unit reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue OP Units were exercised or converted into OP Units. Both the unvested restricted unit awards and other potentially dilutive common units, and the related impact to earnings, are considered when calculating earnings per common unit on a diluted basis with diluted earnings per common unit being the more dilutive of the treasury stock or two-class methods.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, MAALP’s diluted earnings per common unit was computed using the treasury stock method as presented below (dollars and units in thousands, except per unit amounts):

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility

As of June 30, 2022, MAALP had a $1.0 billion unsecured revolving credit facility with an option to expand to $1.5 billion. The revolving credit facility bore an interest rate of the London Interbank Offered Rate plus a spread of 0.75% to 1.45% based on an investment grade pricing grid. The revolving credit facility was scheduled to mature in May 2023 with an option to extend for two additional six-month periods. As of June 30,

2022, there was no outstanding balance under the revolving credit facility, while $4.0 million of capacity was used to support outstanding letters of credit.

In July 2022, MAALP amended its unsecured revolving credit facility, increasing borrowing capacity to $1.25 billion with an option to expand to $2.0 billion. The amended revolving credit facility has a maturity date of October 2026 with two six-month extension options and bears interest at an adjusted Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus a spread of 0.70% to 1.40% based on an investment grade pricing grid.

Unsecured Commercial Paper

MAALP has established an unsecured commercial paper program whereby MAALP may issue unsecured commercial paper notes with varying maturities not to exceed 397 days up to a maximum aggregate principal amount outstanding of $500.0 million. As of June 30, 2022, there was no outstanding balance under the commercial paper program. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the average daily borrowings outstanding under the commercial paper program were $16.3 million.

Unsecured Senior Notes

As of June 30, 2022, MAALP had $4.2 billion of publicly issued unsecured senior notes outstanding. The unsecured senior notes had maturities at issuance ranging from 5 to 30 years, with a weighted average maturity in 2029.

Secured Property Mortgages

As of June 30, 2022, MAALP had $367.9 million of fixed rate conventional property mortgages with a weighted average maturity in 2048.

7. Financial Instruments and Derivatives

Financial Instruments Not Carried at Fair Value

Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and accrued expenses and other liabilities are carried at amounts that reasonably approximate their fair value due to their short term nature.

Fixed rate notes payable as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 totaled $4.5 billion and $4.5 billion, respectively, and had estimated fair values of $4.2 billion and $4.8 billion (excluding prepayment penalties) as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The fair values of fixed rate debt are determined by using the present value of future cash outflows discounted with the applicable current market rate plus a credit spread. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had no variable rate debt outstanding.

Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had one outstanding series of cumulative redeemable preferred stock, which is referred to as the MAA Series I preferred stock (see Note 8). The Company has recognized a derivative asset related to the redemption feature embedded in the MAA Series I preferred stock. The derivative asset is valued using widely accepted valuation techniques, including a discounted cash flow analysis in which the perpetual value of the preferred shares is compared to the value of the preferred shares assuming the call option is exercised, with the value of the bifurcated call option as the difference between the two values. The analysis reflects the contractual terms of the redeemable preferred shares, which are redeemable at the Company’s option beginning on October 1, 2026 at the redemption price of $50.00 per share. The Company uses various inputs in the analysis, including trading data available on the preferred shares, coupon yields on preferred stock issuances from REITs with similar credit ratings as MAA and treasury rates to determine the fair value of the bifurcated call option.

The redemption feature embedded in the MAA Series I preferred stock is reported as a derivative asset in “Other assets” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and is adjusted to its fair value at each reporting date, with a corresponding non-cash adjustment to “Other non-operating expense (income)” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the fair value of the embedded derivative was $24.5 million and $34.5 million, respectively.

The Company has determined the majority of the inputs used to value its outstanding debt and its embedded derivative fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, and as a result, the fair value valuations of its debt and embedded derivative held as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of the Company’s marketable equity securities discussed in Note 1 is based on quoted market prices and the fair value valuation of the marketable equity securities held as of June 30, 2022 was classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

Terminated Cash Flow Hedges of Interest

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $10.8 million recorded in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss”, or AOCL, related to realized losses associated with terminated interest rate swaps that were designated as cash flow hedging instruments prior to their termination. The realized

losses associated with the terminated interest rate swaps are reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s debt and will continue to be reclassified to interest expense until the debt’s maturity. During the next twelve months, the Company estimates an additional $1.1 million will be reclassified to earnings as an increase to “Interest expense.”

Tabular Disclosure of the Effect of Derivative Instruments on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations

8. Shareholders’ Equity of MAA

As of June 30, 2022, 115,438,832 shares of common stock of MAA and 3,202,377 OP Units (excluding the OP Units held by MAA) were issued and outstanding, representing a total of 118,641,209 common shares and units. As of June 30, 2021, 114,919,922 shares of common stock of MAA and 3,618,955 OP Units (excluding the OP Units held by MAA) were issued and outstanding, representing a total of 118,538,877 common shares and units. Options to purchase 463 shares of MAA’s common stock were outstanding as of June 30, 2022, compared to 963 outstanding options as of June 30, 2021. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, MAA issued 350 common shares and 18,882 common shares, respectively, related to the exercise of stock options. These exercises resulted in net proceeds that were negligible during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and $1.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Preferred Stock

As of June 30, 2022, MAA had one outstanding series of cumulative redeemable preferred stock, which has the following characteristics:


Description	Outstanding Shares		Liquidation Preference(1)		Optional Redemption Date	Redemption Price(2)		Stated Dividend Yield			Approximate Dividend Rate
MAA Series I		867,846	$	50.00	10/1/2026	$	50.00		8.50	%	$	4.25

(1)

The total liquidation preference for the outstanding preferred stock is $43.4 million.

(2)

The redemption price is the price at which the preferred stock is redeemable, at MAA’s option, for cash.

See Note 7 for details of the valuation of the derivative asset related to the redemption feature embedded in the MAA Series I preferred stock.

Equity Forward Sale Agreements

In August 2021, MAA entered into two 18-month forward sale agreements with respect to a total of 1.1 million shares of its common stock at an initial forward sale price of $190.56 per share, which price is net of issuance costs. Under the forward sale agreements, the forward sale price is subject to adjustment on a daily basis based on a floating interest rate factor equal to a specified daily rate less a spread and will be decreased based on amounts related to dividends on MAA’s common stock during the term of the forward sale agreements. No shares had been settled under the forward sale agreements as of June 30, 2022. MAA generally has the ability to determine the dates and method of settlement (i.e., gross physical settlement, net share settlement or cash settlement), subject to certain conditions and the right of the counterparty to accelerate settlement under certain circumstances, provided that settlement under each forward sale agreement must occur by February 2, 2023. MAA currently expects to fully physically settle each forward sale agreement with the relevant forward purchaser on one or more dates specified by MAA on or prior to the maturity date of the particular forward sale agreement, in which case MAA expects to receive aggregate net cash proceeds at settlement equal to the number of shares underlying the particular forward sale agreement multiplied by the relevant forward sale price. For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the impact of the forward sale agreements was not dilutive to the Company’s diluted earnings

per share. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, approximately 62 thousand shares from the equity forward sale agreements were dilutive to the Company’s diluted earnings per share.

At-the-Market Share Offering Program

In November 2021, the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement to establish a new at-the-market, or ATM, share offering program, replacing MAA’s previous ATM program and allowing MAA to sell shares of its common stock from time to time to or through its sales agents into the existing market at current market prices, and to enter into separate forward sales agreements to or through its forward purchasers. Under its current ATM program, MAA has the authority to issue up to an aggregate of 4.0 million shares of its common stock, at such times to be determined by MAA. MAA has no obligation to issue shares through the ATM program. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, MAA did not sell any shares of common stock under its ATM program. As of June 30, 2022, 4.0 million shares remained issuable under the ATM program.

9. Partners’ Capital of MAALP

Common units of limited partnership interests in MAALP are represented by OP Units. As of June 30, 2022, there were 118,641,209 OP Units outstanding, 115,438,832, or 97.3%, of which represent Class B OP Units (common units issued to or held by MAALP’s general partner or any of its subsidiaries), which were owned by MAA, MAALP’s general partner. The remaining 3,202,377 OP Units were Class A OP Units owned by Class A limited partners. As of June 30, 2021, there were 118,538,877 OP Units outstanding, 114,919,922, or 96.9%, of which were owned by MAA and 3,618,955 of which were owned by the Class A limited partners.

MAA, as the sole general partner of MAALP, has full, complete and exclusive discretion to manage and control the business of MAALP subject to the restrictions specifically contained within MAALP’s agreement of limited partnership, or the Partnership Agreement. Unless otherwise stated in the Partnership Agreement, this power includes, but is not limited to, acquiring, leasing or disposing of any real property; constructing buildings and making other improvements to properties owned; borrowing money, modifying or extinguishing current borrowings, issuing evidence of indebtedness and securing such indebtedness by mortgage, deed of trust, pledge or other lien on MAALP’s assets; and distribution of MAALP’s cash or other assets in accordance with the Partnership Agreement. MAA can generally, at its sole discretion, issue and redeem OP Units and determine the consideration to be received or the redemption price to be paid, as applicable. The general partner may delegate these and other powers granted to it if the general partner remains in supervision of the designee.

Under the Partnership Agreement, MAALP may issue Class A OP Units and Class B OP Units. Class A OP Units are any OP Units other than Class B OP Units, while Class B OP Units are those issued to or held by MAALP’s general partner or any of its subsidiaries. In general, the limited partners do not have the power to participate in the management or control of MAALP’s business except in limited circumstances, including changes in the general partner and protective rights if the general partner acts outside of the provisions provided in the Partnership Agreement. The transferability of Class A OP Units is also limited by the Partnership Agreement.

Net income of MAALP (after allocations to preferred ownership interests) is allocated to the general partner and limited partners based on their respective ownership percentages of MAALP. Issuance or redemption of additional Class A OP Units or Class B OP Units changes the relative ownership percentage of the partners. The issuance of Class B OP Units generally occurs when MAA issues common stock and the proceeds from that issuance are contributed to MAALP in exchange for the issuance to MAA of a number of OP Units equal to the number of shares of common stock issued. Likewise, if MAA repurchases or redeems outstanding shares of common stock, MAALP generally redeems an equal number of Class B OP Units with similar terms held by MAA for a redemption price equal to the purchase price of those shares of common stock. At each reporting period, the allocation between general partner capital and limited partner capital is adjusted to account for the change in the respective percentage ownership of the underlying capital of MAALP. Holders of the Class A OP Units may require MAA to redeem their Class A OP Units, in which case MAA may, at its option, pay the redemption price either in cash (in an amount per Class A OP Unit equal, in general, to the average closing price of MAA’s common stock on the NYSE over a specified period prior to the redemption date) or by delivering one share of MAA common stock (subject to adjustment under specified circumstances) for each Class A OP Unit so redeemed.

As of June 30, 2022, a total of 3,202,377 Class A OP Units were outstanding and redeemable for 3,202,377 shares of MAA common stock, with an approximate value of $559.4 million, based on the closing price of MAA’s common stock on June 30, 2022 of $174.67 per share. As of June 30, 2021, a total of 3,618,955 Class A OP Units were outstanding and redeemable for 3,618,955 shares of MAA common stock, with an approximate value of $609.5 million, based on the closing price of MAA’s common stock on June 30, 2021 of $168.42 per share. MAALP pays the same per unit distributions in respect to the OP Units as the per share dividends MAA pays in respect to its common stock.

As of June 30, 2022, MAALP had one outstanding series of cumulative redeemable preferred units, or the MAALP Series I preferred units. The MAALP Series I preferred units have the same characteristics as the MAA Series I preferred stock described in Note 8. As of June 30, 2022, 867,846 units of the MAALP Series I preferred units were outstanding. See Note 7 for details of the valuation of the derivative asset related to the redemption feature embedded in the MAALP Series I preferred units.

10. Commitments and Contingencies

Leases

The Company’s operating leases include a ground lease expiring in 2074 related to one of its apartment communities and an office lease expiring in 2028 related to its corporate headquarters. Both leases contain stated rent increases that are generally intended to compensate for the impact of inflation. The Company also has other commitments related to immaterial office and equipment operating leases. As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s operating leases had a weighted average remaining lease term of approximately 32 years and a weighted average discount rate of approximately 4.4%.

The table below reconciles undiscounted cash flows for each of the first five years and total of the remaining years to the right-of-use lease liabilities recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2022 (in thousands):


	Operating Leases

Thereafter		59,993
Total minimum lease payments		72,991
Net present value adjustments		(43,463	)
Right-of-use lease liabilities	$	29,528

Legal Proceedings

The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of its business operations. While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not currently believe that these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in the event of a negative outcome. Matters that arise out of allegations of bodily injury, property damage and employment practices are generally covered by insurance.

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s accrual for loss contingencies relating to unresolved legal matters was $2.0 million and $5.2 million in the aggregate, respectively. The loss contingencies are presented in “Accrued expenses and other liabilities” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

11. Segment Information

As of June 30, 2022, the Company owned and operated 290 multifamily apartment communities (which does not include development communities under construction) in 15 different states from which it derived all significant sources of earnings and operating cash flows. The Company views each consolidated apartment community as an operating segment. The Company’s chief operating decision maker, which is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, evaluates performance and determines resource allocations of each of the apartment communities on a Same Store and Non-Same Store and Other basis, as well as an individual apartment community basis. The Company has aggregated its operating segments into two reportable segments as management believes the apartment communities in each reportable segment generally have similar economic characteristics, facilities, services and residents.

The following reflects the two reportable segments for the Company:

•

Same Store includes communities that the Company has owned and have been stabilized for at least a full 12 months as of the first day of the calendar year.

•

Non-Same Store and Other includes recently acquired communities, communities being developed or in lease-up, communities that have been disposed of or identified for disposition, communities that have experienced a significant casualty loss and stabilized communities that do not meet the requirements to be Same Store communities. Also included in Non-Same Store and Other are non-multifamily activities.

On the first day of each calendar year, the Company determines the composition of its Same Store and Non-Same Store and Other reportable segments for that year as well as adjusts the previous year, which allows the Company to evaluate full period-over-period operating comparisons. Communities previously in development or lease-up are added to the Same Store segment on the first day of the calendar year after the community has been owned and stabilized for at least a full 12 months. Communities are considered stabilized when achieving 90% average physical occupancy for 90 days.

The chief operating decision maker utilizes net operating income, or NOI, in evaluating the performance of its operating segments. Total NOI represents total property revenues less total property operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, for all properties held during the period regardless of their status as held for sale. Management believes that NOI is a helpful tool in evaluating the operating performance of the segments because it measures the core operations of property performance by excluding corporate level expenses and other items not directly related to property operating performance.

Revenues and NOI for each reportable segment for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were as follows (in thousands):

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion analyzes the financial condition and results of operations of both MAA and the Operating Partnership, of which MAA is the sole general partner and in which MAA owned a 97.3% interest as of June 30, 2022. MAA conducts all of its business through the Operating Partnership and its various subsidiaries. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

MAA, an S&P 500 company, is a multifamily-focused, self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust, or REIT. We own, operate, acquire and selectively develop apartment communities primarily located in the Southeast, Southwest and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States. As of June 30, 2022, we owned and operated 290 apartment communities (which does not include development communities under construction) through the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, and we had an ownership interest in one apartment community through an unconsolidated real estate joint venture and had five development communities under construction. In addition, as of June 30, 2022, 33 of our apartment communities included retail components. Our apartment communities, including development communities under construction, were located across 16 states and the District of Columbia as of June 30, 2022.

We report in two segments, Same Store and Non-Same Store and Other. Our Same Store segment represents those apartment communities that have been owned and stabilized for at least 12 months as of the first day of the calendar year. Our Non-Same Store and Other segment includes recently acquired communities, communities being developed or in lease-up, communities that have been disposed of or identified for disposition, communities that have experienced a significant casualty loss and stabilized communities that do not meet the requirements to be Same Store communities. Also included in our Non-Same Store and Other segment are non-multifamily activities. Additional information regarding the composition of our segments is included in Note 11 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, net income available for MAA common shareholders was $209.8 million as compared to $215.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Results for the three months ended June 30, 2022 included $21.8 million of non-cash loss related to the fair value adjustment of the embedded derivative in the MAA Series I preferred shares. Results for the three months ended June 30, 2021 included $13.2 million of non-cash gain related to the embedded derivative in the MAA Series I preferred shares. Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased 13.3% as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, driven by a 13.7% increase in our Same Store segment. Property operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased by 7.7% as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, driven by an 8.1% increase in our Same Store segment. The drivers of these changes are discussed in the “Results of Operations” section.

Trends

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, revenue growth for our Same Store segment continued to be primarily driven by growth in average effective rent per unit. The average effective rent per unit in our Same Store segment continued to increase from the prior year, up 14.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. Average effective rent per unit represents the average of gross rent amounts, after the effect of leasing concessions, for occupied apartment units plus prevalent market rates asked for unoccupied apartment units, divided by the total number of units. Leasing concessions represent discounts to the current market rate. We believe average effective rent per unit is a helpful measurement in evaluating average pricing; however, it does not represent actual rental revenue collected per unit.

In addition, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, average physical occupancy for our Same Store segment was 95.7%, as compared to 96.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Average physical occupancy is a measurement of the total number of our apartment units that are occupied by residents, and it represents the average of the daily physical occupancy for the period.

An important part of our portfolio strategy is to maintain diversity of markets, submarkets, product types and price points primarily in the Southeast, Southwest and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States. This diversity tends to mitigate exposure to economic issues in any one geographic market or area. We believe that a well-balanced portfolio, including both urban and suburban locations, with a broad range of monthly rent price points, will perform well in “up” cycles as well as better weather “down” cycles. Through our investment in 39 defined markets, we are diversified across markets, urban and suburban submarkets, and a variety of product types and monthly rent price points.

Demand for apartments during the second quarter of 2022 was very strong, as evidenced by the rent growth we achieved. Demand for apartments is primarily driven by general economic conditions in our markets and is particularly correlated to job growth, population growth, household formation and in-migration. While our rent growth and rent collection trends in the second quarter of 2022 were strong, we continue to monitor pressures surrounding supply chain challenges and inflation trends. A worsening of the current environment could contribute to uncertain rent collections going forward and suppress demand for apartments and would likely drive rent growth on new leases and renewals lower than what we achieved in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. Current elevated supply levels could further affect rent growth for our portfolio though we expect the demand side to continue to be more impactful in the short term. Supply chain and inflationary pressures have driven higher operating expenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, particularly in personnel and repairs and maintenance, and this trend may continue going forward.

Access to the financial markets remains available for high-credit rated borrowers. However, a prolonged disruption of the markets or a decline in credit and financing conditions could negatively affect our ability to access capital necessary to fund our operations or refinance maturing debt in the future. Additionally, rising interest rates could negatively impact our borrowing costs for any variable rate borrowings or refinancing activity.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the three months ended June 30, 2022 to the three months ended June 30, 2021

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, we achieved net income available for MAA common shareholders of $209.8 million, a 2.7% decrease as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, and total revenue growth of $58.1 million, representing a 13.3% increase in property revenues as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. The following discussion describes the primary drivers of the decrease in net income available for MAA common shareholders for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Property Revenues

The following table reflects our property revenues by segment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 (dollars in thousands):


	Three months ended June 30,
	2022		2021		Increase		% Increase
Same Store	$	472,160	$	415,403	$	56,757		13.7	%
Non-Same Store and Other		22,880		21,524		1,356		6.3	%
Total	$	495,040	$	436,927	$	58,113		13.3	%

The increase in rental revenues for our Same Store segment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021 was the primary driver of total property revenue growth. The Same Store segment generated an 13.7% increase in revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily the result of average effective rent per unit growth of 14.3% as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in property revenues from the Non-Same Store and Other segment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to three months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily the result of increased revenues from recently completed development communities.

Property Operating Expenses

Property operating expenses include costs for property personnel, building repairs and maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance, utilities, landscaping and other operating expenses. The following table reflects our property operating expenses by segment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 (dollars in thousands):


	Three months ended June 30,
	2022		2021		Increase		% Increase
Same Store	$	171,922	$	159,078	$	12,844		8.1	%
Non-Same Store and Other		9,755		9,683		72		0.7	%
Total	$	181,677	$	168,761	$	12,916		7.7	%

The increase in property operating expenses for our Same Store segment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily driven by increases in real estate tax expense of $3.2 million, building repairs and maintenance of $2.9 million, personnel expense of $2.6 million, utilities expense of $1.5 million, and office operations expense of $0.9 million.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $134.1 million, an increase of $2.3 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily driven by the recognition of depreciation expense associated with our development and capital spend activities completed after June 30, 2021 in the normal course of business through June 30, 2022.

Other Income and Expenses

Property management expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $15.6 million, an increase of $1.9 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $15.6 million, an increase of $2.5 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $38.9 million, consistent with the three months ended June 30, 2021.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, we disposed of two apartment communities, resulting in gains on sale of depreciable assets of $132.0 million. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, we disposed of four apartment communities, resulting in gains on sale of depreciable assets of $134.8 million.

Other non-operating expense (income) for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $28.3 million of expense as compared to $20.1 million of income for the three months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease of $48.4 million. The expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was driven by $21.8 million of non-cash loss related to the fair value adjustment of the embedded derivative and $20.9 million of non-cash loss from investments, partially offset by $14.4 million in casualty gains due to winter storm Uri. The income for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was driven by $13.2 million of non-cash gain related to the fair value adjustment of the embedded derivative and $6.3 million of non-cash gain from investments.

Comparison of the six months ended June 30, 2022 to the six months ended June 30, 2021

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we achieved net income available for MAA common shareholders of $319.7 million, a 22.1% increase as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021, and total revenue growth of $109.2 million, representing a 12.7% increase in property revenues as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The following discussion describes the primary drivers of the increase in net income available for MAA common shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Property Revenues

The following table reflects our property revenues by segment for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 (dollars in thousands):


	Six months ended June 30,
	2022		2021		Increase		% Increase
Same Store	$	926,637	$	820,549	$	106,088		12.9	%
Non-Same Store and Other		44,481		41,383		3,098		7.5	%
Total	$	971,118	$	861,932	$	109,186		12.7	%

The increase in rental revenues for our Same Store segment for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 was the primary driver of total property revenue growth. The Same Store segment generated a 12.9% increase in revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily the result of average effective rent per unit growth of 13.3% as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in property revenues from the Non-Same Store and Other segment for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily the result of increased revenues from recently completed development communities.

Property Operating Expenses

Property operating expenses include costs for property personnel, building repairs and maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance, utilities, landscaping and other operating expenses. The following table reflects our property operating expenses by segment for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 (dollars in thousands):


	Six months ended June 30,
	2022		2021		Increase		% Increase
Same Store	$	331,757	$	312,284	$	19,473		6.2	%
Non-Same Store and Other		19,340		18,945		395		2.1	%
Total	$	351,097	$	331,229	$	19,868		6.0	%

The increase in property operating expenses for our Same Store segment for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 was primarily driven by increases in building repairs and maintenance of $4.5 million, personnel expense of $4.4 million, real estate tax expense of $3.6 million, utilities expense of $2.4 million, office operations expense of $2.3 million and insurance expense of $1.5 million.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $267.9 million, an increase of $4.6 million as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily driven by the recognition of depreciation expense associated with our development and capital spend activities completed after June 30, 2021 in the normal course of business through June 30, 2022.

Other Income and Expenses

Property management expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were $32.2 million, an increase of $5.5 million as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were $31.9 million, an increase of $5.8 million as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $78.0 million, a decrease of $0.5 million as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in our effective interest rate during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we disposed of two apartment communities, resulting in gains on sale of depreciable assets of $132.0 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, we disposed of four apartment communities, resulting in gains on sale of depreciable assets of $134.8 million.

Other non-operating expense (income) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $17.5 million of expense as compared to $4.2 million of income for the six months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease of $21.7 million. The expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was driven by $9.9 million of non-cash loss related to the fair value adjustment of the embedded derivative and $31.1 million of non-cash loss from investments, partially offset by $22.1 million in casualty gains due to winter storm Uri. The income for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was driven by the recognition of $7.9 million of non-cash gain from investments, partially offset by $1.9 million of non-cash loss related to the fair value adjustment of the embedded derivative and $1.8 million in casualty losses.

Funds from Operations and Core Funds from Operations

Funds from operations, or FFO, a non-GAAP financial measure, represents net income available for MAA common shareholders (computed in accordance with the United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP) excluding gains or losses on disposition of operating properties and asset impairment, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests and adjustments for joint ventures. Because net income attributable to noncontrolling interests is added back, FFO, when used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, represents FFO attributable to the Company.

FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income available for MAA common shareholders, or any other GAAP measurement, as an indicator of operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating, investing and financing activities as a measure of liquidity. Management believes that FFO is helpful to investors in understanding our operating performance, primarily because its calculation excludes depreciation and amortization expense on real estate assets. We believe that GAAP historical cost depreciation of real estate assets is generally not correlated with changes in the value of those assets, whose value does not diminish predictably over time, as historical cost depreciation implies. While our calculation of FFO is in accordance with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts’, or NAREIT’s, definition, it may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO utilized by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

Core FFO represents FFO as adjusted for items that are not considered part of our core business operations such as adjustments related to the fair value of the embedded derivative in the MAA Series I preferred shares, gain or loss on sale of non-depreciable assets, gain or loss on investments, net casualty gain or loss, gain or loss on debt extinguishment, legal costs and settlements, net, COVID-19 related costs and mark-to-market debt adjustments. While our definition of Core FFO may be similar to others in the industry, our methodology for calculating Core FFO may differ from that utilized by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. Core FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income available for MAA common shareholders, or any other GAAP measurement, as an indicator of operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating, investing and financing activities as a measure of liquidity. We believe that Core FFO is helpful in understanding our core operating performance between periods in that it removes certain items that by their nature are not comparable over periods and therefore tend to obscure actual operating performance.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income available for MAA common shareholders to FFO and Core FFO for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, as we believe net income available for MAA common shareholders is the most directly comparable GAAP measure (dollars in thousands):

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, loss (gain) on investments are presented net of tax benefit of $4.4 million and $6.5 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, loss (gain) on investments are presented net of tax expense of $1.3 million and $1.7 million, respectively.

(3)

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized gains of $12.8 million and $20.4 million, respectively, from the receipt of insurance proceeds that exceeded our casualty losses related to winter storm Uri. The gain is reflected in “Other non-operating expense (income)” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, we incurred $20.4 million and $37.3 million in casualty losses related to winter storm Uri (primarily building repairs, landscaping and asset write-offs). The majority of the casualty losses have been reimbursed through insurance coverage. A receivable was recognized in “Other non-operating expense (income)” for the recorded losses that we expected to recover. Additional costs related to the storm that were not expected to be recovered through insurance coverage, along with other unrelated casualty losses and recoveries, are also reflected in this adjustment. The adjustment is primarily included in “Other non-operating expense (income)” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Core FFO for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $239.9 million, an increase of $40.1 million as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily as a result of an increase in property revenues of $58.1 million, partially offset by increases in property operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, of $12.9 million, general and administrative expenses of $2.5 million and property management expenses of $1.9 million.

Core FFO for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $474.0 million, an increase of $79.8 million as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily as a result of an increase in property revenues of $109.2 million, partially offset by increases in property operating expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, of $19.9 million, general and administrative expenses of $5.8 million and property management expenses of $5.5 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, as well as general economic and market conditions, are the principal factors affecting our liquidity and capital resources.

We expect that our primary uses of cash will be to fund our ongoing operating needs, to fund our ongoing capital spending requirements, which relate primarily to our development, redevelopment and property repositioning activities, to repay maturing borrowings, to fund the future acquisition of assets and to pay shareholder dividends. We expect to meet our cash requirements through net cash flows from

operating activities, existing unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, borrowings under our commercial paper program and our revolving credit facility, the future issuance of debt and equity and the future disposition of assets.

We historically have had positive net cash flows from operating activities. We believe that future net cash flows generated from operating activities, existing unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, borrowing capacity under our current commercial paper program and revolving credit facility, and our ability to issue debt and equity will provide sufficient liquidity to fund the cash requirements for our business over the next 12 months and the foreseeable future.

As of June 30, 2022, we had $1.1 billion of combined unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and available capacity under our revolving credit facility.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $463.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to $397.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in operating cash flows was primarily driven by our operating performance, partially offset by the timing of cash payments.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $57.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to $132.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The primary drivers of the change were as follows (dollars in thousands):


	Primary drivers of cash (outflow) inflow
	during the six months ended June 30,						Increase (Decrease)
	2022			2021			in Net Cash
Purchases of real estate and other assets	$	(17,238	)	$	(46,028	)	$	28,790
Capital improvements and other		(132,849	)		(127,932	)		(4,917	)
Development costs		(84,636	)		(119,612	)		34,976
Contributions to affiliates		(9,300	)		(1,114	)		(8,186	)
Proceeds from real estate asset dispositions		165,201			158,136			7,065
Proceeds from insurance recoveries		20,675			3,620			17,055

The decrease in cash outflows for purchases of real estate and other assets was driven by acquisition activity during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in cash outflows for capital improvements and other was primarily driven by increased redevelopment capital spend during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in cash outflows for development costs was primarily driven by decreased development spend during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in cash outflows for contributions to affiliates was driven by investments in the technology-focused limited partnerships during the six months ended June 30, 2022, while less limited partnership contributions were made during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in cash inflows from proceeds from real estate asset dispositions was driven by the nature of the real estate assets sold during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we sold two apartment communities as compared to four apartment communities during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in cash inflows from proceeds from insurance recoveries was driven by insurance reimbursements received for casualty claims related to winter storm Uri during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $315.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to $257.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The primary drivers of the change were as follows (dollars in thousands):


	Primary drivers of cash inflow (outflow)
	during the six months ended June 30,						(Decrease) Increase
	2022			2021			in Net Cash
Net change in commercial paper	$	—		$	108,000			(108,000	)
Principal payments on notes payable		(691	)		(119,481	)		118,790
Dividends paid on common shares		(250,960	)		(234,591	)		(16,369	)
Acquisition of noncontrolling interests		(43,070	)		—			(43,070	)
Net change in other financing activities		(11,478	)		(1,173	)		(10,305	)

The decrease in cash inflows related to the net change in commercial paper resulted from no net borrowings on our commercial paper program during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to net borrowings of $108.0 million on our commercial paper program during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in cash outflows from principal payments on notes payable primarily resulted from the

retirement of $118.6 million of property mortgages during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in cash outflows from dividends paid on common shares primarily resulted from the increase in the dividend rate to $2.175 per share during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the dividend rate of $2.0500 per share during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in cash outflows from the acquisition of noncontrolling interests resulted from the acquisition of the noncontrolling interest of a consolidated real estate entity for $43.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in cash outflows from the net change in other financing activities was primarily driven by shares of MAA’s common stock surrendered by employees to satisfy their statutory minimum federal and state tax obligations associated with the vesting of restricted shares during the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility & Commercial Paper

MAALP has established an unsecured commercial paper program, whereby it can issue unsecured commercial paper notes with varying maturities not to exceed 397 days up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding of $500.0 million. As of June 30, 2022, there were no borrowings outstanding under the commercial paper program.

Unsecured Senior Notes

As of June 30, 2022, MAALP had $4.2 billion of publicly issued unsecured senior notes outstanding.

MAALP maintains secured property mortgages with various life insurance companies. As of June 30, 2022, we had $367.9 million of secured property mortgages outstanding.

For more information regarding our debt capital resources, see Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Equity

As of June 30, 2022, MAA owned 115,438,832 OP Units, comprising a 97.3% limited partnership interest in MAALP, while the remaining 3,202,377 outstanding OP Units were held by limited partners of MAALP other than MAA. Holders of OP Units (other than MAA) may require us to redeem their OP Units from time to time, in which case we may, at our option, pay the redemption price either in cash (in an amount per OP Unit equal, in general, to the average closing price of MAA’s common stock on the NYSE over a specified period prior to the redemption date) or by delivering one share of MAA’s common stock (subject to adjustment under specified circumstances) for each OP Unit so redeemed. MAA has registered under the Securities Act the 3,202,377 shares of its common stock that, as of June 30, 2022, were issuable upon redemption of OP Units, in order for those shares to be sold freely in the public markets.

settlement under the forward sale agreements, although we expect to settle the forward sale agreements entirely by the full physical delivery of shares of MAA’s common stock in exchange for cash proceeds. We intend to use any cash proceeds upon settlement of the forward sale agreements to fund our development and redevelopment activities, among other potential uses.

In November 2021, the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement to establish a new at-the-market, or ATM, sharing offering program, replacing MAA’s previous ATM program and allowing MAA to sell shares of its common stock from time to time to or through its sales agents into the existing market at current market prices, and to enter into separate forward sales agreements to or through its forward purchasers. Under its current ATM program, MAA has the authority to issue up to an aggregate of 4.0 million shares of its common stock, at such times to be determined by MAA. MAA has no obligation to issue shares through the ATM program. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, MAA did not sell any shares of common stock under its ATM program. As of June 30, 2022, there were 4.0 million shares remaining under the ATM program.

For more information regarding our equity capital resources, see Note 8 and Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Material Cash Requirements

As of June 30, 2022, we had $125.7 million in debt obligations maturing in the year ending December 31, 2022 as well as interest payments on fixed rate debt obligations of $78.1 million. As of June 30, 2022, we also had obligations to make additional capital contributions to three technology-focused limited partnerships in which we hold equity interests. The capital contributions may be called by the general partners at any time after giving appropriate notice. As of June 30, 2022, we had committed to make additional capital contributions totaling up to $31.7 million if and when called by the general partners of the limited partnerships.

We have other material cash requirements that do not represent contractual obligations, but we expect to incur in the ordinary course of our business.

As of June 30, 2022, we had five development communities under construction totaling 1,759 apartment units once complete. Expected total costs for the five development projects are $444.0 million, of which $230.4 million had been incurred through June 30, 2022. We expect to have additional development projects in the future. In addition, our property redevelopment and repositioning activities are ongoing, and we incur expenditures relating to recurring capital replacements, which typically include scheduled carpet replacement, new roofs, HVAC units, plumbing, concrete, masonry and other paving, pools and various exterior building improvements. For the year ending December 31, 2022, we expect that our total capital expenditures relating to our development activities, our property redevelopment and repositioning activities and recurring capital replacements will be in line with our total capital expenditures for the year ended December 31, 2021.

In July 2022, we funded the acquisition of a multifamily apartment community for approximately $73.0 million primarily from the proceeds we received from the sale of two multifamily apartment communities in June 2022.

We typically declare cash dividends on MAA’s common stock on a quarterly basis, subject to approval by MAA’s Board of Directors. The current annual dividend rate is $5.00 per common share. The timing and amount of future dividends will depend on actual cash flows from operations, our financial condition, capital requirements, the annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and other factors as MAA’s Board of Directors deems relevant. MAA’s Board of Directors may modify our dividend policy from time to time.

For information regarding our material cash requirements as of December 31, 2021, see Item 7 of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on February 17, 2022.

Inflation

Our resident leases at our apartment communities allow for adjustments in the rental rate at the time of renewal, which may enable us to seek rent increases. The majority of our leases are for one year or less. The short-term nature of these leases generally serves to reduce our risk to adverse effects of inflation on our revenues.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on February 17, 2022, for discussions of our critical accounting estimates. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, there were no material changes to these estimates.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Market risk includes risks that arise from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes that affect market sensitive instruments. Our primary market risk exposure is to changes in interest rates on our borrowings. As of June 30, 2022, 17.9% of our total market capitalization consisted of debt borrowings. Our interest rate risk objective is to limit the impact of interest rate fluctuations on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve this objective, we manage our exposure to fluctuations in market interest rates for borrowings through the use of fixed rate debt instruments and from time to time interest rate swaps to effectively fix the interest rate on anticipated future debt transactions. We use our best efforts to have our debt instruments mature across multiple years, which we believe limits our exposure to interest rate changes in any one year. We do not enter into derivative instruments for trading or other speculative purposes. As of June 30, 2022, 100.0% of our outstanding debt was subject to fixed rates. We regularly review interest rate exposure on outstanding borrowings in an effort to minimize the risk of interest rate fluctuations. There have been no material changes in our market risk as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on February 17, 2022.
