EXPLANATORY NOTE
This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 of Regency Centers Corporation and Regency Centers, L.P. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to “Regency Centers Corporation” or the “Parent Company” mean Regency Centers Corporation and its controlled subsidiaries; and references to “Regency Centers, L.P.” or the “Operating Partnership” mean Regency Centers, L.P. and its controlled subsidiaries. The term “the Company” or “Regency” means the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, collectively.
The Parent Company is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) and the general partner of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership's capital includes general and limited common Partnership Units (“Units”). As of June 30, 2016, the Parent Company owned approximately 99.8% of the Units in the Operating Partnership and the remaining limited Units are owned by investors. The Parent Company owns all of the Series 6 and 7 Preferred Units of the Operating Partnership. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company has exclusive control of the Operating Partnership's day-to-day management.
The Company believes combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership into this single report provides the following benefits:
• | Enhances investors' understanding of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business; |
• | Eliminates duplicative disclosure and provides a more streamlined and readable presentation; and |
• | Creates time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports. |
Management operates the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership as one business. The management of the Parent Company consists of the same individuals as the management of the Operating Partnership. These individuals are officers of the Parent Company and employees of the Operating Partnership.
The Company believes it is important to understand the few differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership in the context of how the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership operate as a consolidated company. The Parent Company is a REIT, whose only material asset is its ownership of partnership interests of the Operating Partnership. As a result, the Parent Company does not conduct business itself, other than 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. The Parent Company does not hold any indebtedness, but guarantees all of the unsecured public debt of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership holds all the assets of the Company and retains the ownership interests in the Company's joint ventures. Except for net proceeds from public equity issuances by the Parent Company, which are contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for partnership units, the Operating Partnership generates all remaining capital required by the Company's business. These sources include the Operating Partnership's operations, its direct or indirect incurrence of indebtedness, and the issuance of partnership units.
Stockholders' equity, partners' capital, and noncontrolling interests are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of the Parent Company and those of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership's capital includes general and limited common Partnership Units, and Series 6 and 7 Preferred Units owned by the Parent Company. The limited partners' units in the Operating Partnership owned by third parties are accounted for in partners' capital in the Operating Partnership's financial statements and outside of stockholders' equity in noncontrolling interests in the Parent Company's financial statements. The Series 6 and 7 Preferred Units owned by the Parent Company are eliminated in consolidation in the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Parent Company and are classified as preferred units of general partner in the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Operating Partnership.
In order to highlight the differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, there are sections in this report that separately discuss the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, including separate financial statements, controls and procedures sections, and separate Exhibit 31 and 32 certifications. In the sections that combine disclosure for the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, this report refers to actions or holdings as being actions or holdings of the Company.
As general partner with control of the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting purposes, and the Parent Company does not have assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership. Therefore, while stockholders' equity and partners' capital differ as discussed above, the assets and liabilities of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership are the same on their respective financial statements.

REGENCY CENTERS CORPORATION AND REGENCY CENTERS, L.P.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2016
1. | Organization and Principles of Consolidation |
General
Regency Centers Corporation (the “Parent Company”) began its operations as a Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) in 1993 and is the general partner of Regency Centers, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”). The Parent Company engages in the ownership, management, leasing, acquisition, and development of retail shopping centers through the Operating Partnership, and has no other assets or liabilities other than through its investment in the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company currently owns approximately 99.8% of the outstanding common Partnership Units of the Operating Partnership. As of June 30, 2016, the Parent Company, the Operating Partnership, and their controlled subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (the "Company” or “Regency”) directly owned 199 retail shopping centers and held partial interests in an additional 112 retail shopping centers through investments in real estate partnerships (also referred to as "joint ventures" or "investment partnerships").
The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. These adjustments are considered to be of a normal recurring nature.
Consolidation
The Company consolidates properties that are wholly owned or properties where it owns less than 100%, but which it controls. Control is determined using an evaluation based on accounting standards related to the consolidation of voting interest entities and variable interest entities ("VIEs"). For joint ventures that are determined to be a VIE, the Company consolidates the entity where it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. Determination of the primary beneficiary is based on whether an entity has (1) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance, and (2) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company's determination of the primary beneficiary considers all relationships between it and the VIE, including management agreements and other contractual arrangements.
Ownership of the Operating Partnership
The Operating Partnership’s capital includes general and limited common Partnership Units. As of June 30, 2016, the Parent Company owned approximately 99.8% of the outstanding common Partnership Units of the Operating Partnership with the remaining limited Partnership Units held by third parties (“Exchangeable operating partnership units” or “EOP units”). The Parent Company serves as general partner of the Operating Partnership. The EOP unit holders have limited rights over the Operating Partnership such that they do not have characteristics of a controlling financial interest. As such, the Operating Partnership is considered a variable interest entity, and the Parent Company is the primary beneficiary which consolidates it. The Parent Company’s only investment is the Operating Partnership.

Regency owns 112 properties through partnerships with institutional investors, other real estate developers and/or operators, and individual parties who help Regency source transactions for development and investment ("the Partners", "limited partners"). Regency has a variable interest in these entities through its equity interests. As managing member, Regency maintains the books and records and typically provides leasing and property management to the partnerships. The partners’ level of involvement varies from protective decisions (debt, bankruptcy, selling primary asset(s) of business) to involvement in approving leases, operating budgets, and capital budgets.
• | Those partnerships for which the partners only have protective rights are considered VIEs under ASC 810, Consolidation. Regency is the primary beneficiary of these VIEs as Regency has power over these partnerships and they operate primarily for the benefit of Regency. As such, Regency consolidates these entities and reports the limited partners’ interest as noncontrolling interests. |

The majority of the operations of the VIEs are funded with cash flows generated by the properties, or in the case of developments, with capital contributions or third party construction loans. Regency does not provide financial support to the VIEs.
The major classes of assets, liabilities, and non-controlling equity interests held by these VIEs are as follows:

Assets | (1) | ||||

Limited partners’ interests in consolidated partnerships | 19,208 | 11,058 |
(1) As discussed in note 2, during the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company acquired a controlling interest in two partnerships; one was formed to develop a shopping center and the second to acquire a mixed-use retail operating center. The structure of both partnerships is considered a VIE with Regency as the primary beneficiary.
• | Those partnerships for which the partners are involved in the day to day decisions and do not have any other aspects that would cause them to be considered VIEs, are evaluated for consolidation using the voting interest model. |
◦ | Those partnerships which Regency has a controlling financial interest are consolidated and the limited partners’ ownership interest and share of net income is recorded as noncontrolling interest. |
◦ | Those partnerships which Regency does not have a controlling financial interest are accounted for using the equity method and its ownership interest is recognized through single-line presentation as Investments in Real Estate Partnerships, in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, and Equity in Income of Investments in Real Estate Partnerships, in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Distributions received from these partnerships are accounted for using the look-through method with returns of capital from property sales or debt financing considered investing cash flows and the remaining distributions generally considered operating cash flows. |
The assets of these partnerships are restricted to the use of the partnerships and cannot be used by general creditors of the Company. And similarly, the obligations of these partnerships can only be settled by the assets of these partnerships.
Reclassifications
During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company reclassified its land held for future development from Properties in development to Land within the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company reclassified prior period amounts of $47.3 million to conform to current period presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The following table provides a brief description of recent accounting pronouncements and expected impact on our financial statements:
Standard | Description | Date of adoption | Effect on the financial statements or other significant matters | |||
Recently adopted: | ||||||
ASU 2015-02, February 2015, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis | ASU 2015-02 affects reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. ASU 2015-02 modifies the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are VIEs or voting interest entities, eliminates the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership, and affects the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs. | January 2016 | The adoption of this standard resulted in five additional investment partnerships being considered variable interest entities due to the limited partners' lack of substantive participation in the partnerships. This did not result in any impact to the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets, Statements of Operations, or Cash Flows, but did result in additional disclosures about its relationships with and exposure to variable interest entities. | |||
ASU 2015-03, April 2015, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs | ASU 2015-03 simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs by requiring that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. | January 2016 | The adoption and implementation of this standard has resulted in the retrospective presentation of debt issuance costs associated with the Company's notes payable and term loans as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt instruments (previously, included in deferred costs in the consolidated balance sheets). Unamortized debt issuance costs of $8.2 million has been reclassified to offset the related debt as of December 31, 2015. | |||
ASU 2015-15, August 2015, Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements | ASU 2015-15 clarifies that debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements may be deferred and presented as an asset, amortized over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings. | January 2016 | The adoption of this standard resulted in debt issuance costs related to the Line of credit ("Line") to continue being presented as an asset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, previously within deferred costs, and now presented within other assets. | |||

Not yet adopted: | ||||||
ASU 2014-15, August 2014, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern | The standard requires management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide certain disclosures when it is probable that the entity will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. | December 2016 | The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have an impact on its Consolidated Balance Sheets, Statements of Operations, or Cash Flows but will result in more disclosure surrounding the Company's plans around significant debt maturities. | |||
ASU 2016-09, March 2016, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting | This ASU affects entities that issue share-based payment awards to their employees. The ASU is designed to simplify several aspects of accounting for share-based payment award transactions including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, an option to recognize stock compensation forfeitures as they occur, and changes to classification on the statement of cash flows. | January 2017 | We are currently evaluating the alternative methods of adoption and the impact it may have on the Company's financial statements and related disclosures. | |||
Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): ASU 2014-09, May 2014, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ASU 2016-08, March 2016, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations ASU 2016-10, April 2016, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing ASU 2016-12, May 2016, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients | The standard will replace existing revenue recognition standards and significantly expand the disclosure requirements for revenue arrangements. It may be adopted either retrospectively or on a modified retrospective basis to new contracts and existing contracts with remaining performance obligations as of the effective date. | January 2018 | The Company is currently evaluating the alternative methods of adoption and the impact it may have on its financial statements and related disclosures. | |||

Standard | Description | Date of adoption | Effect on the financial statements or other significant matters | |||
ASU 2016-01, January 2016, Financial Instruments—Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities | The standard amends the guidance to classify equity securities with readily-determinable fair values into different categories and requires equity securities to be measured at fair value with changes in the fair value recognized through net income. Equity investments accounted for under the equity method are not included in the scope of this amendment. Early adoption of this amendment is not permitted. | January 2018 | The Company does not expect the adoption and implementation of this standard to have a material impact on its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. | |||
ASU 2016-02, February 2016, Leases (Topic 842) | The standard amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets. It also makes targeted changes to lessor accounting, including a change to the treatment of initial direct leasing costs, which no longer considers fixed internal leasing salaries as capitalizable costs. Early adoption of this standard is permitted to coincide with adoption of ASU 2014-09. The standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. | January 2019 | The Company is currently evaluating the alternative methods of adoption and the impact it will have on its financial statements and related disclosures. | |||
ASU 2016-13, June 2016, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments | The amendments in this update replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. | January 2020 | The Company is currently evaluating the alternative methods of adoption and the impact it will have on its financial statements and related disclosures. |

Total debt outstanding | $ | 1,984,216 | 1,864,285 |
(1) As of June 30, 2016, the amount consists of two mortgages with variable interest rates of one month LIBOR plus 150 basis points and which mature on October 16, 2020 and April 1, 2023, respectively. Interest rate swaps are in place fixing the interest rates at 3.696% on $28.1 million and 2.803% on $20.0 million, respectively, of these two variable rate mortgages. See note 5.
As of June 30, 2016 , the key interest rates of the Company's notes payables and credit facilities were as follows:
June 30, 2016 | ||||
Weighted Average Effective Rate | Weighted Average Contractual Rate | |||
Mortgage loans | 6.1% | 6.1% | ||
Fixed rate unsecured loans | 5.5% | 4.8% | ||
Unsecured credit facilities | 1.5% | (1) | 1.4% |
(1) Weighted average effective rate for the unsecured credit facilities is calculated based on a fully drawn Line balance.
Significant financing activity since December 31, 2015 includes the following:
• | The Company has repaid three mortgages totaling $41.6 million that were scheduled to mature during 2016. |
• | The Company issued new variable rate mortgage debt of $20.0 million, related to one of the mortgages that matured during 2016. |
• | The Company borrowed on the Line to fund its acquisition of Market Common Clarendon during the three months ended June 30, 2016. |
Financing - Subsequent Events
• | Subsequent to June 30, 2016, the Company amended its existing Term Loan, which increased the facility size by $100.0 million to $265.0 million, extended the maturity date to January 5, 2022 and reduced the applicable interest rate. The Term Loan now bears interest at LIBOR plus a ratings based margin of 0.95% per annum, subject to adjustment from time to time based on changes to the Company's corporate credit rating. At closing, the Company executed interest rate swaps for the full notional amount of the Term Loan, which fixed the interest rate at 2.0% through maturity. Proceeds from the expanded Term Loan facility were used to repay part of the Line balance. |
• | Subsequent to June 30, 2016, the Company provided 30 days notice to redeem the entirety of its $300 million of 5.875% senior unsecured notes due June 15, 2017 funded from proceeds from an equity offering, as discussed in note 7. The redemption will include a $13.2 million make-whole premium, which will be paid and expensed in August 2016. |

(1) Represents the date specified in the agreement for either optional or mandatory early termination by the counterparty, which will result in cash settlement. The Company has the option to terminate and settle at any date prior to this.
(2) Derivatives in an asset position are included within Other assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, while those in a liability position are included within Accounts payable and other liabilities.
(3) In 2014, the Company entered into $220 million of forward starting interest rate swaps to hedge the interest rate on new fixed rate ten year debt that the Company expected to issue in June 2017 for the specific purpose of repaying at maturity the $300 million of 5.875% senior unsecured notes due June 15, 2017. These interest rate swaps locked in a weighted average fixed rate of 3.48%, before the Company's credit spread. These swaps were settled subsequent to June 30, 2016, as further described below.
These derivative financial instruments are all interest rate swaps, which are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and, as of June 30, 2016, does not have any derivatives that are not designated as hedges. The Company has master netting agreements; however, the Company does not have multiple derivatives subject to a single master netting agreement with the same counterparties. Therefore, none are offset in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges is recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI") and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings within Interest expense, in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

As of June 30, 2016, the Company expects $10.0 million of net deferred losses on derivative instruments accumulated in Other comprehensive income to be reclassified into earnings during the next 12 months, of which $8.4 million is related to previously settled swaps.
Hedge Settlement - Subsequent Event
Subsequent to June 30, 2016, the Company initiated and completed a $400 million equity offering, as further described in note 7, for the primary purpose of funding the early redemption of $300 million of 5.875% senior unsecured notes due on June 15, 2017. The Company also used $40.6 million from the net offering proceeds to settle $220 million of forward starting swaps related to new debt expected to be issue in 2017 to repay the notes at maturity. As a result of the equity offering, the Company now believes that the issuance of new fixed rate debt within the remaining period of the forward starting swaps is probable not to occur. Accordingly, the Company will cease hedge accounting and reclassify the amount paid to settle the forward starting swaps from Accumulated other comprehensive loss to earnings during the third quarter of 2016.
6. Fair Value Measurements
(a) Disclosure of Fair Value of Financial Instruments
All financial instruments of the Company are reflected in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets at amounts which, in management's estimation, reasonably approximate their fair values, except for the following:
June 30, 2016 | December 31, 2015 | ||||||||||||

Unsecured credit facilities | $ | 309,585 | 309,800 | $ | 164,514 | 165,300 |
The above fair values represent management's estimate of the amounts that would be received from selling those assets or that would be paid to transfer those liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants as of June 30,
23
REGENCY CENTERS CORPORATION AND REGENCY CENTERS, L.P.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2016
2016 and December 31, 2015. These fair value measurements maximize the use of observable inputs. However, in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date, the fair value measurement reflects the Company's own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The Company develops its judgments based on the best information available at the measurement date, including expected cash flows, appropriately risk-adjusted discount rates, and available observable and unobservable inputs. Service providers involved in fair value measurements are evaluated for competency and qualifications on an ongoing basis. As considerable judgment is often necessary to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments, the fair values presented above are not necessarily indicative of amounts that will be realized upon disposition of the financial instruments.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments:

The fair value of the Company's Notes receivable is estimated by calculating the present value of future contractual cash flows discounted at interest rates available for notes of the same terms and maturities, adjusted for counter-party specific credit risk. The fair value of Notes receivable was determined primarily using Level 3 inputs of the fair value hierarchy, which considered counter-party credit risk and collateral risk of the underlying property securing the note receivable.
Notes Payable
The fair value of the Company's unsecured debt is estimated based on the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on the current rates offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities. The fair value of the unsecured debt was determined using Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy.
The fair value of the Company's mortgage notes payable is estimated by discounting future cash flows of each instrument at rates that reflect the current market rates available to the Company for debt of the same terms and maturities. Fixed rate loans assumed in connection with real estate acquisitions are recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements at fair value at the time the property is acquired. The fair value of the mortgage notes payable was determined using Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy.
Unsecured Credit Facilities
The fair value of the Company's Unsecured credit facilities is estimated based on the interest rates currently offered to the Company by financial institutions. The fair value of the credit facilities was determined using Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy.
The following interest rate ranges were used by the Company to estimate the fair value of its financial instruments:
June 30, 2016 | December 31, 2015 | |||||||
Low | High | Low | High | |||||
Notes receivable | 6.7% | 6.7% | 6.3% | 6.3% | ||||
Notes payable | 2.5% | 3.5% | 2.8% | 4.2% | ||||
Unsecured credit facilities | 1.4% | 1.4% | 1.1% | 1.1% |
(b) Fair Value Measurements
The following financial instruments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:
Trading Securities Held in Trust
The Company has investments in marketable securities, which are assets of the non-qualified deferred compensation plan ("NQDCP"), that are classified as trading securities held in trust on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the Trading securities held in trust was determined using
24
REGENCY CENTERS CORPORATION AND REGENCY CENTERS, L.P.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2016
quoted prices in active markets, which are considered Level 1 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. Changes in the value of trading securities are recorded within net investment (income) loss from deferred compensation plan in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Available-for-Sale Securities
Available-for-sale securities consist of investments in certificates of deposit and corporate bonds, and are recorded at fair value using matrix pricing methods to estimate fair value, which are considered Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. Unrealized gains or losses on these securities are recognized through Other comprehensive income.
Interest Rate Derivatives
The fair value of the Company's interest rate derivatives is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty's nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements.
Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. The Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its interest rate swaps. As a result, the Company determined that its interest rate swaps valuation in its entirety is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The following tables present the placement in the fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

11. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is involved in litigation on a number of matters and is subject to certain claims, which arise in the normal course of business, none of which, in the opinion of management, is expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. Legal fees are expensed as incurred.
The Company is also subject to numerous environmental laws and regulations as they apply to real estate pertaining to chemicals used by the dry cleaning industry, the existence of asbestos in older shopping centers, and underground petroleum storage tanks. The Company believes that the ultimate disposition of currently known environmental matters will not have a material effect on its financial position, liquidity, or operations. The Company can give no assurance that existing environmental studies with respect to the shopping centers have revealed all potential environmental liabilities, that any previous owner, occupant or tenant did not create any material environmental condition not known to it, that the current environmental condition of the shopping centers will not be affected by tenants and occupants, by the condition of nearby properties, or by unrelated third parties, or that changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations or their interpretation will not result in additional environmental liability to the Company.
The Company has the right to issue letters of credit under the Line up to an amount not to exceed $50.0 million, which reduces the credit availability under the Line. These letters of credit are primarily issued as collateral on behalf of its captive insurance program and to facilitate the construction of development projects. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had $5.8 million and $5.9 million, respectively, in letters of credit outstanding.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
In addition to historical information, the following information contains forward-looking statements as defined under federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements include statements about anticipated changes in our revenues, the size of our development and redevelopment program, earnings per share and unit, returns and portfolio value, and expectations about our liquidity. These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the real estate industry and markets in which the Company operates, and management's beliefs and assumptions. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, changes in national and local economic conditions, financial difficulties of tenants, competitive market conditions, including timing and pricing of acquisitions and sales of properties and building pads ("out-parcels"), changes in leasing activity and market rents, timing of development starts, meeting development schedules, natural disasters in geographic areas in which we operate, cost of environmental remediation, our inability to exercise voting control over the co-investment partnerships through which we own many of our properties, and technology disruptions. For additional information, see “Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto of Regency Centers Corporation and Regency Centers, L.P. appearing elsewhere herein. We do not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to such forward-looking statements to reflect events or uncertainties after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of uncertain events.
Defined Terms
We use certain non-GAAP performance measures, in addition to the required GAAP presentations, as we believe these measures improve the understanding of the Company's operational results. We manage our entire real estate portfolio without regard to ownership structure, although certain decisions impacting properties owned through partnerships require partner approval. Therefore, we believe presenting our pro-rata share of operating results regardless of ownership structure, along with other non-GAAP measures, makes comparisons of other REITs' operating results to the Company's more meaningful. We continually evaluate the usefulness, relevance, limitations, and calculation of our reported non-GAAP performance measures to determine how best to provide relevant information to the public, and thus such reported measures could change.
The following terms, as defined, are commonly used by management and the investing public to understand and evaluate our operational results:
• | Same Property information is provided for operating properties that were owned and operated for the entirety of both calendar year periods being compared and excludes Non-Same Properties and Properties in Development. |
• | A Non-Same Property is a property acquired, sold, or a development completion during either calendar year period being compared. Corporate activities, including the captive insurance company, are part of Non-Same Property. |
• | Property In Development is a property owned and intended to be developed, including partially operating properties acquired specifically for redevelopment and excluding land held for future development. |
• | Development Completion is a project in development that is deemed complete upon the earliest of: (i) 90% of total estimated net development costs have been incurred and percent leased equals or exceeds 95%, or (ii) the project features at least two years of anchor operations, or (iii) three years have passed since the start of construction. Once deemed complete, the property is termed an Operating Property. |
• | Pro-Rata information includes 100% of our consolidated properties plus our ownership interest in our unconsolidated real estate investment partnerships. |
The pro-rata information is prepared on a basis consistent with the comparable consolidated amounts and is intended to more accurately reflect our proportionate economic interest in the operating results of properties in our portfolio. We do not control the unconsolidated investment partnerships, and the pro-rata presentations of the assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses do not represent our legal claim to such items. The partners are entitled to profit or loss allocations and distributions of cash flows according to the operating agreements, which provide for such allocations according to their invested capital. Our share of invested capital establishes the ownership interests we use to prepare our pro-rata Balance Sheets and Statements of Operations.
The presentation of pro-rata information has limitations which include, but are not limited to, the following:
31
• | The amounts shown on the individual line items were derived by applying our overall economic ownership interest percentage determined when applying the equity method of accounting or allocating noncontrolling interests, and do not necessarily represent our legal claim to the assets and liabilities, or the revenues and expenses; and |
• | Other companies in our industry may calculate their pro-rata interest differently, limiting the usefulness as a comparative measure. |
Because of these limitations, the pro-rata financial information should not be considered independently or as a substitute for our financial statements as reported under GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP financial statements, using the pro-rata financial information as a supplement.
• | Core EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, real estate gains and losses, and development and acquisition pursuit costs. |
• | Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is defined as Core EBITDA divided by the sum of the gross interest and scheduled mortgage principal paid to our lenders plus dividends paid to our preferred stockholders. |
• | Net Operating Income ("NOI") is the sum of minimum rent, percentage rent and recoveries from tenants and other income, less operating and maintenance, real estate taxes, and provision for doubtful accounts. NOI excludes straight-line rental income, above and below market rent amortization and other fees. The Company also provides disclosure of NOI excluding termination fees, which excludes both termination fee income and expenses. |
• | NAREIT Funds from Operations ("NAREIT FFO") is a commonly used measure of REIT performance, which the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") defines as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains and losses from sales of depreciable property, net of tax, excluding operating real estate impairments, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We compute NAREIT FFO for all periods presented in accordance with NAREIT's definition. Many companies use different depreciable lives and methods, and real estate values historically fluctuate with market conditions. Since NAREIT FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and gains and losses from depreciable property dispositions, and impairments, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, acquisition and development activities, and financing costs. This provides a perspective of our financial performance not immediately apparent from net income determined in accordance with GAAP. Thus, NAREIT FFO is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure of our operating performance, which does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP; and, therefore, should not be considered a substitute measure of cash flows from operations. |
• | Core FFO is an additional performance measure used by Regency as the computation of NAREIT FFO includes certain non-cash and non-comparable items that affect the Company's period-over-period performance. Core FFO excludes from NAREIT FFO, but is not limited to: (a) transaction related gains, income or expense; (b) impairments on land; (c) gains or losses from the early extinguishment of debt; and (d) other non-core amounts as they occur. The Company provides a reconciliation of NAREIT FFO to Core FFO. |

Overview of Our Strategy
Regency Centers began its operations as a publicly-traded REIT in 1993, and currently owns direct or partial interests in 311 shopping centers, the majority of which are grocery-anchored community and neighborhood centers. Our centers are located in the top markets of 26 states and the District of Columbia, and contain 37.9 million square feet ("SF") of gross leasable area ("GLA"). All of our operating, investing, and financing activities are performed through the Operating Partnership, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and through its investment partnerships. The Parent Company currently owns approximately 99.8% of the outstanding common partnership units of the Operating Partnership.
Our mission is to be the preeminent grocery-anchored shopping center owner and developer through:
• | First-rate performance of our exceptionally merchandised and located national portfolio; |
• | Value-enhancing services of the best team of professionals in the business; and |
• | Creation of superior growth in shareholder value. |
Our strategy is:
• | Sustain average annual 3% NOI growth from a high-quality, growing portfolio of thriving community and neighborhood shopping centers; |
• | Develop new, and redevelop existing, high quality shopping centers at attractive returns on investment from a disciplined development program; |
• | Maintain our strong balance sheet to provide financial flexibility, to cost effectively fund uses of capital, and to weather economic downturns; and |
• | Engage a talented and dedicated team with high standards of integrity that operates efficiently and is recognized as a leader in the real estate industry. |
Executing on our Strategy
During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we executed on our strategic objectives to further solidify Regency’s position as a leader among shopping center REITs:
Sustain average annual 3% NOI growth from a high-quality, growing portfolio of thriving community and neighborhood shopping centers.
We earn revenues and generate cash flow by leasing space in our shopping centers to grocery stores, major retail anchors, restaurants, side-shop retailers, and service providers, as well as ground leasing or selling out-parcels to these same types of tenants. We experience growth in revenues by increasing occupancy and rental rates in our existing shopping centers, by acquiring and developing new shopping centers, and by redeveloping shopping centers within our portfolio. Noteworthy milestones and achievements during 2016 include:
• | We achieved pro-rata same property NOI growth, excluding termination fees, of 3.7% during the six months ended June 30, 2016. |
• | We increased our pro-rata same property percent leased to 96.3% at June 30, 2016 from 96.2% at December 31, 2015. |
• | We grew rental rates 13.7% on new and renewal leases of comparable size space during the six months ended June 30, 2016. |
• | We invested in the acquisition of two operating properties. |
Develop new, high quality shopping centers and redevelop existing centers at attractive returns on investment from a disciplined development program.
We capitalize on our development capabilities, market presence, and anchor relationships by investing in new developments and redevelopments of existing centers.
• | During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we started $54.5 million of development and redevelopment projects with a weighted average projected return of 8.1%, net of partner funding requirements. |
• | As of June 30, 2016, we have five ground-up developments in process, with total expected net development costs of $89.2 million, projected returns on capital of 7.9%, and are currently 87.7% leased. We also have 17 redevelopments of existing centers in process with total expected net redevelopment costs of $117.2 million, with $72.0 million of costs to complete, and projected incremental returns ranging from 7.0% - 10.0%. |
33
Maintain our strong balance sheet to provide financial flexibility, to cost effectively fund uses of capital, and to weather economic downturns.
We fund acquisitions and development activities from various capital sources including operating cash flow, property sales through a disciplined match-funding strategy of selling low growth assets, equity offerings, new debt financing, and capital from our co-investment partners.
• | At June 30, 2016, our net debt-to-core EBITDA ratio on a pro-rata basis for the trailing twelve months was 5.3x versus 5.2x at December 31, 2015. We had $24.9 million of cash and $145.0 million outstanding balance on our $800.0 million Line. |
• | In March 2016, we sold 3.1 million shares of common stock at an offering price of $75.25 per share through our forward equity offering, to be settled by June 2017. In June 2016, we settled 1.85 million shares of the forward equity offering resulting in net proceeds of $137.5 million, which was used to repay the Line balance created from funding the acquisition of Market Common Clarendon. |
• | Subsequent to June 30, 2016, we amended our existing Term Loan, which increased the facility size by $100.0 million to $265.0 million, extended the maturity date to January 5, 2022 and fixed the interest rate at 2.00%. Proceeds from the expanded Term Loan facility were used to repay our Line that was used to partially fund the acquisition of Market Common Clarendon. |
• | Subsequent to June 30, 2016, we issued 5.0 million shares of common stock resulting in net proceeds of $400.1 million, used to (i) repay in full our outstanding $300 million of 5.875% senior unsecured notes due June 15, 2017, including a make-whole payment, (ii) settle the forward interest rate swap, and (iii) fund investment activities and for general corporate purposes. |

Significant Tenants and Concentrations of Risk
We seek to reduce our operating and leasing risks through geographic diversification and by avoiding dependence on any single property, market, or tenant. The following table summarizes our four most significant tenants, each of which is a grocery tenant:

Grocery Anchor | Number of Stores (1) | Percentage of Company- owned GLA (2) | Percentage of Annualized Base Rent (2) | |||

(2) Includes Regency's pro-rata share of Unconsolidated Properties and excludes those owned by anchors. |
Bankruptcies
Although base rent is supported by long-term lease contracts, tenants who file bankruptcy may have the legal right to reject any or all of their leases and close related stores. In the event that a tenant with a significant number of leases in our shopping centers files bankruptcy and cancels its leases, we could experience a significant reduction in our revenues. We monitor the operating performance and rent collections of all tenants in our shopping centers, especially those tenants with operating retail formats that are experiencing significant changes in competition, business practice, and store closings in other locations. However, no tenant represents more than 5% of our annual base rent on a pro-rata basis.
Our management team devotes significant time to monitoring consumer preferences, shopping behaviors, and demographics to anticipate both challenges and opportunities in the changing retail industry that may affect our tenants. As a result of our findings, we may reduce new leasing, suspend leasing, or curtail the allowance for the construction of leasehold improvements within a certain retail category or to a specific retailer.
During March 2016, Sports Authority filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, at which time we had three leases in our portfolio. One of those leases has been assumed by another retailer and the remaining two have been rejected. Those remaining two locations currently represent $2.1 million, or 0.4%, of total annualized base rent on a pro-rata basis.
During February 2016, Sears Holdings announced that it planned to accelerate the closing of a number of unprofitable stores due to continued poor sales. Sears continues to report significant declines in operating revenues and performance, and its ability to continue operating stores in our shopping centers is uncertain. We have four Sears or Kmart leases in our portfolio, which currently represent $3.0 million, or 0.5%, of total annualized base rent on a pro-rata basis.

The $2.3 million decrease in total interest expense is due to:
• | $4.0 million decrease in lower interest rates from refinancing our long-term debt during 2015 and lower outstanding balances on notes payable; offset by, |
• | $571,000 increase in interest expense related to higher average balances on unsecured credit facilities during the three months ended June 30, 2016, |
• | $1.2 million less of interest capitalized on development and redevelopment projects. |
Net investment income increased $235,000, driven by realized gains from the non-qualified deferred compensation plan.

Supplemental Earnings Information
We use certain non-GAAP performance measures, in addition to the required GAAP presentations, as we believe these measures improve the understanding of the Company's operational results. We manage our entire real estate portfolio without regard to ownership structure, although certain decisions impacting properties owned through partnerships require partner approval. Therefore, we believe presenting our pro-rata share of operating results regardless of ownership structure, along with other non-GAAP measures, makes comparisons of other REITs' operating results to the Company's more meaningful. We continually evaluate the usefulness, relevance, limitations, and calculation of our reported non-GAAP performance measures to determine how best to provide relevant information to the public, and thus such reported measures could change.

Pro-rata same property base rent increased $3.4 million and $7.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, driven by increases in rental rate growth on new and renewal leases and contractual rent steps in our existing leases, with occupancy remaining flat.
Pro-rata same property other income increased $1.4 million and $2.4 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, as a result of lease termination fees, easement sales, and settlements in 2016.
Pro-rata same property operating expenses increased $1.1 million and $0.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, primarily driven by increases in real estate taxes, with some additional impacts seen from tenant reimbursable services, property management fees, and snow removal costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
General
We utilize cash flows generated from operating, investing, and financing activities to strengthen our balance sheet and reduce risk, finance our development and redevelopment projects, fund our targeted investments, and maintain financial flexibility. We continuously monitor the capital markets and evaluate our ability to issue new debt or equity to repay maturing debt or fund our capital commitments.
Our Parent Company has no capital commitments other than its guarantees of the commitments of our Operating Partnership. The Parent Company will from time to time access the capital markets for the purpose of issuing new equity and will simultaneously contribute all of the offering proceeds to the Operating Partnership in exchange for additional partnership units. All debt is held by our Operating Partnership or by our co-investment partnerships. Based upon our available sources of capital, our current credit ratings, and the number of high quality, unencumbered properties we own, we believe our available capital resources are sufficient to meet our expected capital needs. The following table represents our available sources of capital:
(in thousands) | June 30, 2016 | |||
ATM equity program | ||||
Original offering amount | $ | 200,000 | ||
Available capacity | $ | 70,800 | ||
Forward Equity Offering | ||||

(1) Available shares may be settled prior to June 23, 2017 | ||||
(2) Net of letters of credit. Subsequent to June 30, 2016, the Company repaid the entire Line balance from its Term Loan proceeds and property sales, resulting in available capacity of $794.2 million. | ||||
(3) The Company has the option to extend the maturity for two additional six-month periods. |
We operate our business such that we expect net cash provided by operating activities will provide the necessary funds to pay our distributions to our common and preferred share and unit holders, which were $107.7 million and $101.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Our dividend distribution policy is set by our Board of Directors, who monitors our financial position. Our Board of Directors recently declared our common stock quarterly dividend of $0.50 per share, payable on August 31, 2016. Future dividends will be declared at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will be subject to capital requirements and availability. We plan to continue paying an aggregate amount of distributions to our stock and unit holders that, at a minimum, meet the requirements to continue qualifying as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes.
During the next twelve months, we estimate that we will require approximately $578.8 million of cash, including $124.9 million to complete in-process developments and redevelopments, $431.6 million to repay maturing debt including the redemption referred to below, and $22.3 million to fund our pro-rata share of estimated capital contributions to our co-investment partnerships for repayment of debt. If we start new developments or redevelop additional shopping centers, our cash requirements will increase.
We endeavor to maintain a high percentage of unencumbered assets. At June 30, 2016, 82.5% of our wholly-owned real estate assets were unencumbered. Such assets allow us to access the secured and unsecured debt markets and to maintain availability on the Line. Our coverage ratio, including our pro-rata share of our partnerships, was 3.0 times and 2.6 times for the trailing four quarters ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. We define our coverage ratio as earnings before interest, taxes, investment transaction profits net of deal costs, depreciation and amortization (“Core EBITDA”) divided by the sum of the gross interest and scheduled mortgage principal paid to our lenders plus dividends paid to our preferred stockholders.
49
Our Line, Term Loan, and unsecured loans require that we remain in compliance with various covenants, which are described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. We are in compliance with these covenants at June 30, 2016 and expect to remain in compliance.
Subsequent Events
In July 2016, we amended our existing senior unsecured Term Loan facility. The amendment established a new Term Loan of $265 million, which increased the existing loan by $100 million, extended the maturity date to January 5, 2022, and reduced the applicable interest rate. The new Term Loan bears interest at LIBOR plus a ratings based margin of 0.95% per annum, subject to adjustment from time to time based on changes to our corporate credit rating. In connection with the amendment, we executed interest rate swaps for the full notional amount of $265 million, fixing the interest rate at 2.00% through maturity. We utilized the additional $100.0 million to pay down our Line, which we used as a funding component for the acquisition of Market Common Clarendon.
Also in July 2016, we initiated and completed an equity offering with respect to 5.0 million shares of our common stock at an offering price of $79.98 per share, which resulted in gross proceeds of approximately $400 million before offering expenses. We plan to use a portion of the proceeds to redeem our outstanding $300 million 5.875% senior unsecured notes due June 2017 in August 2016. The redemption price will be determined in accordance with the applicable indenture and is expected to be $316 million, including $3 million of accrued and unpaid interest through the proposed redemption date and a $13 million make-whole amount, which will be expensed in the third quarter of 2016. Additionally, we used $40.6 million of the net proceeds to settle in full the 3.48% $220 million forward starting swaps. As a result of the equity offering, we now believe that the issuance of new fixed rate debt within the remaining period of the forward starting swaps is probable not to occur. Accordingly, we will cease hedge accounting and reclassify the amount paid to settle the forward starting swaps from Accumulated other comprehensive loss to earnings during the third quarter of 2016.
We intend to use the remaining portion of the net proceeds to fund investment activities and for general corporate purposes. As part of the equity offering, we agreed to a 60 day lock-up period from settlement, whereby we will not sell any shares of our common stock or any other derived form of transferring ownership of the company, except with respect to the 1.25 million shares of common stock that may be settled under the forward equity offering.

Significant changes in investing activities include:
• | We acquired two operating properties during 2016 for $297.5 million and no operating properties in 2015. |
• | We invested $33.8 million less in 2016 than 2015 on real estate development and capital improvements, as further detailed in a table below. |
• | We received proceeds of $36.8 million from the sale of four shopping centers and ten land parcels in 2016, compared to $26.6 million for two shopping centers in 2015. |
• | We invested $3.8 million in our real estate partnerships during 2016 to fund our share of maturing mortgage debt and redevelopment activity, compared to $1.3 million during 2015 to fund redevelopment activities. |
• | Distributions from our unconsolidated real estate partnerships include return of capital from sales or financing proceeds. The $25.7 million received in 2016 is primarily driven by proceeds from the sale of six shopping centers within the partnerships. During 2015, we received $15.0 million, primarily attributable to $12.7 million of proceeds from the sale of one shopping center with a co-investment partner and $2.3 million of financing proceeds. |
• | Acquisition of securities and proceeds from sale of securities pertain to equity and debt securities held by our captive insurance company and our deferred compensation plan. The majority of our investing activity during 2016 relates to reallocation of plan assets. |
51
We plan to continue developing and redeveloping shopping centers for long-term investment. We deployed capital of $75.3 million for the development, redevelopment, and improvement of our real estate properties, comprised of the following:

Real estate development and capital improvements | $ | 75,320 | 109,118 | (33,798 | ) |
• | Building and tenant improvements increased during 2016 primarily related to timing of capital projects. |
• | Redevelopment expenditures are lower in 2016 due to the timing, magnitude, and number of projects currently in process. We intend to continuously improve our portfolio of shopping centers through redevelopment which can include adjacent land acquisition, existing building expansion, new out-parcel building construction, and tenant improvement costs. The size and magnitude of each redevelopment project varies with each redevelopment plan. |
• | Development expenditures are lower in 2016 due to the progress towards completion of our development projects currently in process. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had five and seven development projects, respectively, that were either under construction or in lease up. See the tables below for more details about our development projects. |
• | Interest is capitalized on our development and redevelopment projects and is based on cumulative actual development costs expended. We cease interest capitalization when the property is no longer being developed or is available for occupancy upon substantial completion of tenant improvements but in no event would we capitalize interest on the project beyond 12 months after the anchor opens for business. Capitalized interest decreased in 2016 as compared to 2015 as our development or redevelopment projects neared substantial completion and we commenced fewer new projects. |
• | We have a staff of employees who directly support our development and redevelopment program. Internal compensation costs directly attributable to these activities are capitalized as part of each project. Changes in the level of future development and redevelopment activity could adversely impact results of operations by reducing the amount of internal costs for development and redevelopment projects that may be capitalized. A 10% reduction in development and redevelopment activity without a corresponding reduction in the compensation costs directly related to our development and redevelopment activities could result in an additional charge to net income of $1.4 million per year. |

Significant financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 include the following:
• | During 2016, we issued 182,787 shares of common stock through our ATM program at an average price of $68.85 per share resulting in net proceeds of $12.4 million. In addition, we settled 1,850,000 shares under our forward equity offering at an average price of $74.32 per share resulting in proceeds of $137.5 million. During 2015, we issued 18,125 shares of common stock through our ATM program at an average price of $64.72 per share resulting in net proceeds of $1.0 million. |
• | During 2016, our dividend payments increased as a result of the greater number of common shares outstanding and an increase in our dividend rate. |
• | We borrowed $145.0 million on our Line, net of repayments, during 2016 to partially fund the acquisition of Market Common Clarendon, as compared to $45.0 million in 2015 for working capital purposes. The remaining $145.0 million Line balance was repaid during July from the expanded Term Loan and proceeds from property sales. |
• | We received $19.7 million of mortgage proceeds, net of issuance costs, in 2016 upon the encumbrance of three operating properties. |
• | During 2016, we used $44.6 million for scheduled principal payments and to repay three mortgages compared to $78.9 million for scheduled principal payments and to repay three mortgages during 2015. |

At June 30, 2016, our investments in real estate partnerships had notes payable of $1.4 billion maturing through 2031, of which 99.3% had a weighted average fixed interest rate of 4.9%. The remaining notes payable float over LIBOR and had a weighted average variable interest rate of 2.0%. These notes payable are all non-recourse, and our pro-rata share was $480.5 million as of June 30, 2016. As notes payable mature, we expect they will be repaid from proceeds from new borrowings and/or partner capital contributions. We are obligated to contribute our pro-rata share to fund maturities if they are not refinanced. We believe that our partners are financially sound and have sufficient capital or access thereto to fund future capital requirements. In the event that a co-investment partner was unable to fund its share of the capital requirements of the co-investment partnership, we would have the right, but not the obligation, to loan the defaulting partner the amount of its capital call.
Management fee income
In addition to earning our pro-rata share of net income or loss in each of these co-investment partnerships, we receive fees, as shown below:

Environmental Matters
We are subject to numerous environmental laws and regulations as they apply to our shopping centers pertaining to chemicals used by the dry cleaning industry, the existence of asbestos in older shopping centers, and underground petroleum storage tanks. We believe that the tenants who currently operate dry cleaning plants or gas stations do so in accordance with current laws and regulations. Generally, we use all legal means to cause tenants to remove dry cleaning plants from our shopping centers or convert them to more environmentally friendly systems. Where available, we have applied and been accepted into state-sponsored environmental programs. We have a blanket environmental insurance policy for third-party liabilities and remediation costs on shopping centers that currently have no known environmental contamination. We have also placed environmental insurance, where possible, on specific properties with known contamination, in order to mitigate our environmental risk. We monitor the shopping centers containing environmental issues and in certain cases voluntarily remediate the sites. We also have legal obligations to remediate certain sites and we are in the process of doing so.
As of June 30, 2016 we had accrued liabilities of $9.1 million for our pro-rata share of environmental remediation. We believe that the ultimate disposition of currently known environmental matters will not have a material effect on our financial position, liquidity, or results of operations; however, we can give no assurance that existing environmental studies on our shopping centers have revealed all potential environmental liabilities; that any previous owner, occupant or tenant did not create any material environmental condition not known to us; that the current environmental condition of the shopping centers will not be affected by tenants and occupants, by the condition of nearby properties, or by unrelated third parties; or that changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations or their interpretation will not result in additional environmental liability to us.
Inflation/Deflation
Inflation has been historically low and has had a minimal impact on the operating performance of our shopping centers; however, inflation may become a greater concern in the future. Substantially all of our long-term leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation. Most of our leases require tenants to pay their pro-rata share of operating expenses, including common-area maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. In addition, many of our leases are for terms of less than ten years, which permits us to seek increased rents upon re-rental at market rates. However, during deflationary periods or periods of economic weakness, minimum rents and percentage rents will decline as the supply of available retail space exceeds demand and consumer spending declines. Occupancy declines resulting from a weak economic period will also likely result in lower recovery rates of our operating expenses.
