million in aggregate principal amount of % exchangeable senior unsecured notes due 2027 (the “2027 Exchangeable Notes”) and $ million in aggregate principal amount of % exchangeable senior unsecured notes due 2029 (the “2029 Exchangeable Notes” and together with the 2027 Exchangeable Notes, the “Exchangeable Notes”). The net proceeds from the issuance, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts, underwriting commissions and other offering expenses, were approximately $ million for the 2027 Exchangeable Notes and $ million for the 2029 Exchangeable Notes. As of September 30, 2024, the net carrying amount of the 2027 Exchangeable Notes was $ million, with unamortized debt discount and issuance costs of $ million, and the net carrying amount of the 2029 Exchangeable Notes was $ million, with unamortized debt discount and issuance costs of $ million. Interest on the Exchangeable Notes is payable semiannually on March 15 and September 15 of each year beginning on September 15, 2024. The 2027 Exchangeable Notes will mature on and the 2029 Exchangeable Notes will mature on , in each case unless earlier repurchased, exchanged or (in the case of 2029 Exchangeable Notes) redeemed. We recognized total interest expense on the Exchangeable Notes of approximately $ million and $ million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, with coupon interest of $ million and $ million, and amortization of debt discount and issuance costs of $ million and $ million, respectively.
Before December 15, 2026 (in the case of the 2027 Exchangeable Notes) or December 15, 2028 (in the case of the 2029 Exchangeable Notes), noteholders will have the right to exchange their notes only upon the occurrence of certain events. From and after December 15, 2026 (in the case of the 2027 Exchangeable Notes) or December 15, 2028 (in the case of the 2029 Exchangeable Notes), noteholders may exchange their notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date of the applicable series of Exchangeable Notes. Exchanges will be settled by delivering cash up to the principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes exchanged, and in respect of the remainder of the exchanged value, if any, in excess thereof, in cash or in a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our option. The initial exchange rate is shares of our common stock per $ principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes, which represents an initial exchange price of approximately $ per share of our common stock. The initial exchange price represents a premium of approximately % over the last reported sale price of $ per share of our common stock on March 26, 2024.
We may not redeem the 2027 Exchangeable Notes at our option prior to their maturity. The 2029 Exchangeable Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to certain limitations), for cash at our option at any time, and from time to time, on or after May 20, 2027 and on or before the 41st scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date of the 2029 Exchangeable Notes, but only if the last reported sale price per share of our common stock exceeds % of the exchange price of the 2029 Exchangeable Notes for a specified period of time and certain other conditions are satisfied. The redemption price will be equal to the principal amount of the 2029 Exchangeable Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.
If a fundamental change (e.g. change in control, delisting of our common stock or shareholders’ approval of liquidation or dissolution plan) occurs, then, subject to limited exception, noteholders may require us to repurchase their notes for cash at a repurchase price equal to the principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, if a specific make-whole fundamental change occurs prior to the maturity date or if we issue a notice of redemption with respect to the 2029 Exchangeable Notes, the exchange rate will be increased, in certain circumstances by pre-defined amounts.
In connection with the offering for each series of Exchangeable Notes, we entered into a registration rights agreement pursuant to which we agreed to register the resale of the shares of our common stock, if any, deliverable upon exchange of the Exchangeable Notes. If certain conditions relating to our obligations under the registration rights agreement are not satisfied, then we will pay additional interest on the applicable series of Exchangeable Notes, in certain circumstances, at a rate per annum not exceeding %. In addition, if those conditions are not satisfied after the regular record date immediately preceding the maturity date of Exchangeable Notes, then we will pay an additional interest payment at maturity for an amount equal to % of principal for the applicable series of Exchangeable Notes. We account for such additional interest amounts as contingent obligations in accordance with ASC Subtopic 825-20: Financial Instrument - Registration Payment Arrangements, which are measured separately in accordance with ASC Subtopic 450-20: Loss Contingencies. Because payment of such additional interest amounts was not probable as of September 30, 2024, we have not recognized a liability as of September 30, 2024.
Credit Agreement
As of September 30, 2024, under the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), we have a $ billion unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”), which also allows us to issue letters of credit up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $ million, a $ million unsecured term loan facility (the “$ Million Term Loan”) and a $ million unsecured term loan facility (the “$ Million Term Loan” and together with the $ Million Term Loan, the “Term Facility”). Subject to certain terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement, we may request additional
million, which may be comprised of additional revolving commitments under the Revolver, an increase to the Term Facility, additional term loan tranches or any combination of the foregoing.The Revolver is scheduled to mature on May 26, 2026 and has extension options available. The $ Million Term Loan was scheduled to mature on July 19, 2024 and has extension options available. On July 12, 2024, we exercised the first extension option of the $ Million Term Loan, extending its maturity date by to July 18, 2025. The $ Million Term Loan matures on May 26, 2027.
Interest on the Credit Agreement is generally to be paid based upon, at our option, either (i) Term SOFR plus the applicable margin; (ii) daily SOFR plus the applicable margin or (iii) the applicable base rate (which is defined as the highest of (a) the federal funds rate plus %, (b) the administrative agent’s prime rate, (c) Term SOFR plus %, and (d) one percent (%) plus the applicable margin. Additionally, Term SOFR and daily SOFR will be increased by a % SOFR adjustment. The applicable margin for the Term Facility ranges from % to % per annum for SOFR-based loans and % to % per annum for base rate loans, depending on our leverage ratio and investment grade ratings. The applicable margin for the Revolver ranges from % to % per annum for SOFR-based loans and letters of credit and % to % per annum for base rate loans, depending on our leverage ratio and investment grade ratings. In addition to the interest payable on amounts outstanding under the Revolver, we are required to pay an applicable credit facility fee, on each lender's commitment amount under the Revolver, regardless of usage. The applicable credit facility fee ranges from % to % per annum, depending on our leverage ratio and investment grade rating.
In addition, the Credit Agreement also features a sustainability-linked pricing component that can periodically adjust the applicable margin by -%, or % and adjust the applicable credit facility fee by -%, or %, depending on our achievement of the annual sustainability performance metric. In June 2024, after certifying that our sustainability performance was achieved at the target level for 2023, the sustainability-linked pricing adjustment changed from -% to for the applicable margin and changed from -% to for the applicable credit facility fee.
The Revolver and the Term Facility may be voluntarily prepaid in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty. Amounts borrowed under the Term Facility and repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.
The Credit Agreement contains usual and customary events of default including defaults in the payment of principal, interest or fees, defaults in compliance with the covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement and other loan documentation, cross-defaults to certain other indebtedness, and bankruptcy and other insolvency defaults. If an event of default occurs and is continuing under the Credit Agreement, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding loans, together with all accrued unpaid interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof, may be declared immediately due and payable.
As of September 30, 2024, we did have any borrowings outstanding under the Revolver and had $ million outstanding in letters of credit that reduced our borrowing capacity, leaving $ million available for future borrowings.
Debt Covenants
The Credit Agreement, $ million term loan facility (“$ Million Term Loan”), $ million unsecured guaranteed senior notes (the “$ Million Notes”), $ million unsecured guaranteed senior notes (the “$ Million Notes”) and $ million unsecured guaranteed senior notes and $ million unsecured guaranteed senior notes (together the “Series 2019A and 2019B Notes”) all include a series of financial and other covenants that we must comply with, including the following covenants which are tested on a quarterly basis:

As of September 30, 2024, we estimate that approximately $ million of net unrealized gains will be reclassified from AOCI into earnings as a net decrease to interest expense over the next 12 months.
Credit-risk-related Contingent Features
Certain of our agreements with our derivative counterparties contain a provision where if we default on any of our indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender within a specified time period, then we could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations.
Certain of our agreements with our derivative counterparties contain provisions where if a merger or acquisition occurs that materially changes our creditworthiness in an adverse manner, we may be required to fully collateralize our obligations under the derivative instrument.

We have the right to issue letters of credit under the Revolver up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $ million, which reduces the credit availability under the Revolver. As of September 30, 2024, we had a $ million letter of credit outstanding, which was originally issued on May 31, 2024, to capitalize a new wholly-owned captive insurance subsidiary through which we indirectly manage a portion of our earthquake insurance.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
We have deposited cash with financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $ per institution. Although from time to time we have deposits at institutions in excess of federally insured limits, we do not believe we are exposed to significant credit risk due to the financial position and high credit quality of the institutions in which those deposits are held.
Concentration of Properties in Southern California
As of September 30, 2024, all of our properties are located in the Southern California infill markets. The ability of the tenants to honor the terms of their respective leases is dependent upon the economic, regulatory and social factors affecting the markets in which the tenants operate and other conditions.

ATM Program
On February 17, 2023, we established an at-the-market equity offering program (“ATM program”) pursuant to which we are able to sell from time to time shares of our common stock having an aggregate sales price of up to $ billion (the “2023 ATM Program”). The 2023 ATM Program replaced our previous $ billion ATM program, which was established on May 27, 2022.

As of September 30, 2024, approximately $ million of common stock remains available to be sold under the 2023 ATM Program. Future sales, if any, will depend on a variety of factors, including among others, market conditions, the trading price of our common stock, determinations by us of the appropriate sources of funding for us and potential uses of funding available to us.
Settlement of May 2023 Forward Equity Offering
In May 2023, we entered into forward equity sale agreements with certain financial institutions acting as forward purchasers in connection with an underwritten public offering of shares of common stock at an initial forward price of $ per share (the “May 2023 Forward Sale Agreements”), pursuant to which the forward purchasers borrowed and sold an aggregate of shares of common stock in the offering. In 2023, we partially settled the May 2023 Forward Sale Agreements by issuing shares of common stock, leaving a remaining shares of common stock for settlement as of December 31, 2023.
In January 2024 we settled the outstanding May 2023 Forward Sale Agreements by issuing shares of common stock for net proceeds of $ million, based on a weighted average forward price of $ per share at settlement.
March 2024 Forward Equity Offering
In March 2024, we entered into a forward equity sale agreement with a financial institution acting as forward purchaser in connection with an underwritten public offering of shares of common stock (the “March 2024 Forward Sale Agreement”), pursuant to which, the forward purchaser borrowed and sold an aggregate of shares of common stock in the offering. We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of common shares by the forward purchaser at the time of the offering. The net forward sale price that we will receive upon physical settlement of the agreements, which was initially $ per share, will be subject to adjustment for (i) a floating interest rate factor equal to a specified daily rate less a spread, (ii) the forward purchaser’s stock borrowing costs and (iii) scheduled dividends during the term of the forward sale agreement.
In July 2024, we partially settled the March 2024 Forward Sale Agreement by issuing shares of common stock for net proceeds of $ million, based on a weighted average forward price of $ per share at settlement. As of September 30, 2024, we had shares of common stock, or approximately $ million of forward net proceeds remaining for settlement to occur prior to the scheduled maturity date of March 27, 2025, based on a forward price of $.

Noncontrolling Interests
Noncontrolling interests relate to interests in the Operating Partnership, represented by common units of partnership interests in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”), fully-vested LTIP units, fully-vested performance units, our three series of preferred units of partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (comprised of %, % and % cumulative redeemable convertible preferred units of partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (the “CPOP Units”)), and the preferred units of the private REIT that we acquired on July 18, 2022, that are not owned by us.
Series 1 CPOP Units
On April 10, 2024, we exercised our right to convert all % Cumulative Redeemable Convertible Preferred Units (the “Series 1 CPOP Units”) of partnership interest in the Operating Partnership into OP Units. In connection with the conversion of the Series 1 CPOP Units, we paid the holder a prorated cash distribution of $ thousand for the period from April 1, 2024 through April 9, 2024.
Operating Partnership Units
As of September 30, 2024, noncontrolling interests included OP Units, fully-vested LTIP units and fully-vested performance units, and represented approximately % of our Operating Partnership (excluding CPOP Units). OP Units and shares of our common stock have essentially the same economic characteristics, as they share equally in the total net income or loss and distributions of our Operating Partnership. Investors who own OP Units have the right to cause our Operating Partnership to redeem any or all of their units in our Operating Partnership for an amount of cash per unit equal to the then current market value of one share of common stock, or, at our election, shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis. See “Note 13 – Incentive Award Plan” for a description of LTIP units and Performance Units.
OP Units were converted into an equivalent number of shares of common stock, resulting in the reclassification of $ million of noncontrolling interest to Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc.’s stockholders’ equity.
13.
shares of common stock, LTIP Units, Performance Units and other stock based awards remain available for issuance under the Plan. Shares and units granted under the Plan may be authorized but unissued shares or units, or, if authorized by the board of directors, shares purchased in the open market. If an award under the Plan is forfeited, expires, or is settled for cash, any shares or units subject to such award will generally be available for future awards.LTIP Units and Performance Units
LTIP Units and Performance Units are each a class of limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership. Initially, LTIP Units and Performance Units do not have full parity with OP Units with respect to liquidating distributions. However, upon the occurrence of certain events described in the Operating Partnership’s partnership agreement, the LTIP Units and Performance Units can over time achieve full parity with the OP Units for all purposes. If such parity is reached, vested LTIP Units and vested Performance Units may be converted into an equal number of OP Units, and upon conversion, enjoy all rights of OP Units. Vested Performance Units and LTIP Units, whether vested or not, receive the same quarterly per-unit distributions as OP Units, which equal the per-share distributions on shares of our common stock. Performance Units that have not vested receive a quarterly per-unit distribution equal to % of the distributions paid on OP Units.

Unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends, whether paid or unpaid, are accounted for as participating securities. As such, unvested shares of restricted stock, unvested LTIP Units and unvested Performance Units are considered participating securities. Participating securities are included in the computation of basic EPS pursuant to the two-class method. The two-class method determines EPS for each class of common stock and each participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and their respective participation rights in undistributed earnings. Participating securities are also included in the computation of diluted EPS using the more dilutive of the two-class method or treasury stock method for unvested shares of restricted stock and LTIP Units, and by determining if certain market conditions have been met at the reporting date for unvested Performance Units.
The effect of including unvested shares of restricted stock and unvested LTIP Units using the treasury stock method was excluded from our calculation of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding – diluted, as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
Performance Units, which are subject to vesting based on the Company achieving certain TSR levels and FFO per share growth over a performance period, are included as contingently issuable shares in the calculation of diluted EPS when TSR and/or FFO per share growth has been achieved at or above the threshold levels specified in the award agreements, assuming the reporting period is the end of the performance period, and the effect is dilutive.
Shares issuable under forward equity sale agreements during the period prior to settlement are reflected in our calculation of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding – diluted using the treasury stock method as the impact was dilutive for the periods presented above.
We also consider the effect of other potentially dilutive securities, including the CPOP Units and OP Units, which may be redeemed for shares of our common stock under certain circumstances, and include them in our computation of diluted EPS under the if-converted method when their inclusion is dilutive. These units were not dilutive for the periods presented above. Additionally, as of September 30, 2024, the Exchangeable Notes were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share as they were anti-dilutive for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Company Overview
Rexford Industrial Realty, Inc. is a self-administered and self-managed full-service REIT focused on owning and operating industrial properties in Southern California infill markets. We were formed as a Maryland corporation on January 18, 2013, and Rexford Industrial Realty, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), of which we are the sole general partner, was formed as a Maryland limited partnership on January 18, 2013. Through our controlling interest in our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, we acquire, own, improve, reposition, redevelop, lease and manage industrial real estate principally located in Southern California infill markets, and, from time to time, acquire or provide mortgage debt secured by industrial zoned property or property suitable for industrial development. We are organized and conduct our operations to qualify as a REIT under the Code and generally are not subject to federal taxes on our income to the extent we distribute our income to our shareholders and maintain our qualification as a REIT.
As of September 30, 2024, our consolidated portfolio consisted of 423 properties with approximately 50.1 million rentable square feet.
Our goal is to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our stockholders by providing superior access to industrial property investments in high-barrier Southern California infill markets. Periodically we also engage in mortgage debt investments secured by industrial zoned property or property suitable for industrial development within these markets. Our target markets provide us with opportunities to acquire both stabilized properties generating favorable cash flow, as well as properties or land parcels where we can enhance returns through value-add repositioning and redevelopments. Scarcity of available space and high barriers limiting new construction of for-lease product all contribute to create superior long-term supply/demand fundamentals within our target infill Southern California industrial property markets. With our vertically integrated operating platform and extensive value-add investment and management capabilities, we believe we are positioned to capitalize upon the opportunities in our markets to achieve our objectives.

Net proceeds were approximately $1.126 billion after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and commissions and offering expenses.
Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations
Market and Portfolio Fundamentals
Our operating results depend upon the infill Southern California industrial real estate market.
The infill Southern California industrial real estate sector continues to exhibit strong long-term fundamentals. These high-barrier infill markets are characterized by a relative scarcity of highly functional product, coupled with the limited ability to introduce new supply due to high land and redevelopment costs and a dearth of developable land in markets experiencing a net reduction in supply as, over time, more industrial property is converted to non-industrial uses than can be delivered. Furthermore, despite some recent moderation, tenant demand within our infill target markets continues to be healthy, illustrated by strong leasing fundamentals as well as the dynamic Southern California regional economy which continues to exhibit growth in consumer spending with approximately $26 billion of incremental spending forecasted for 2024, according to Oxford Economics. While we believe that our infill Southern California industrial property markets have demonstrated a relatively high degree of resiliency related to occupancy and rental rates in the context of key market drivers over the last several years, we expect some ongoing volatility within our markets through the near term, principally driven by general macroeconomic and political uncertainty including an uncertain interest rate environment and global geopolitical unrest. Market rent growth continues to normalize, with rents decreasing in the current quarter within our infill Southern California markets, after increasing by approximately 80%, on average, through the pandemic. Also, during the quarter, California Governor Gavin Newsom signed Assembly Bill 98 (“AB 98”), which enacts statewide industrial development standards effective as of January 1, 2026. As is the case with local zoning requirements, the development standards of AB 98 will be considered in our investment decisions and construction projects. AB 98’s highest development standards focus on the development of larger buildings of 250,000 square feet or more where rezoning is required, and therefore we believe these new standards will have a minimal impact to our overall portfolio and business strategy given our primary focus on the repositioning and refurbishment of industrial buildings within the infill markets.
The quality and intensity of tenant demand through the third quarter of 2024 is demonstrated through the Company’s strong leasing spreads, as well as its leasing volume and retention rate (see “—Leasing Activity and Rental Rates” below). This tenant demand has been driven by a wide range of sectors, from consumer products, healthcare and medical products to aerospace, food and beverage, construction and logistics, among other sectors. We also continue to observe a notable volume of ecommerce-oriented tenants securing space within our infill property locations driven in part by delivery demand associated with last-mile distribution and local omnichannel retail fulfillment which are driving discernible shifts in inventory-handling strategies among retailers and distributors. Our portfolio, which we believe represents prime locations with superior functionality within the largest last-mile logistics distribution market in the nation, is well-positioned to continue to serve our existing diverse tenant base and attract incremental ecommerce-oriented and traditional distribution demand over the long-term.
General Market Conditions
We believe our portfolio’s leasing performance during the third quarter of 2024 has generally outpaced that of the infill markets within which we operate. We believe this performance has been driven by our highly entrepreneurial business model focused on acquiring and improving industrial property in superior locations so that our portfolio reflects a higher level of quality and functionality, on average, as compared to typical available product within the markets within which we operate. We believe that our portfolio, with last-mile infill locations and a smaller average tenant size versus other non-infill competitors, is well positioned to serve regional consumption and less susceptible to changes in global trade flows. We also believe the quality and entrepreneurial approach demonstrated by our team of real estate professionals actively managing our properties and our tenants enables the potential to outcompete within our markets that we believe are generally otherwise owned by more passive, less-focused real estate owners.
The following general market conditions have been sourced from third-party market data and do not necessarily reflect the results of our portfolio. For our portfolio specific results see “—Rental Revenues” and “—Results of Operations” below.
In Los Angeles County, vacancy increased quarter-over-quarter and average asking lease rates declined quarter-over-quarter. Occupancy generally remains at healthy levels and new development is limited by a lack of land availability and an increase in land and development costs.
In Orange County, average asking lease rates decreased quarter-over-quarter and vacancy increased quarter-over-quarter while still remaining at low vacancy levels. Market conditions are expected to be favorable over the long-term due to steady demand and the continued low availability of industrial product in this region.
In the Inland Empire West, which contains infill markets in which we operate, vacancy decreased quarter-over-quarter and average taking lease rates in the market decreased quarter-over-quarter. We generally do not focus on properties located within the non-infill Inland Empire East sub-market where available land and the development and construction pipeline for new supply is substantial.
In San Diego, vacancy increased quarter-over-quarter and average asking lease rates declined slightly quarter-over-quarter.
In Ventura County, vacancy increased quarter-over-quarter and average asking lease rates declined quarter-over-quarter.
Acquisitions and Value-Add Repositioning and Redevelopment of Properties
The Company’s growth strategy comprises acquiring leased, stabilized properties as well as properties with value-add opportunities to improve functionality and to deploy our value-driven asset management programs in order to increase cash flow and value. Additionally, from time to time, we may acquire industrial outdoor storage sites, land parcels or properties with excess land for ground-up redevelopment projects. Acquisitions may comprise single property investments as well as the purchase of portfolios of properties, with transaction values ranging from approximately $10 million single property investments to portfolios potentially valued in the billions of dollars. The Company’s geographic focus remains infill Southern California. However, from time-to-time, portfolios could be acquired comprising a critical mass of infill Southern California industrial property that could include some assets located in markets outside of infill Southern California. In general, to the extent non-infill-Southern California assets were to be acquired as part of a larger portfolio, the Company may underwrite such investments with the potential to dispose such assets over a certain period of time in order to maximize its core focus on infill Southern California, while endeavoring to take appropriate steps to satisfy REIT safe harbor requirements to avoid prohibited transactions under REIT tax laws. Similarly, while our focus is owning and operating industrial properties in Southern California infill markets, occasionally an acquisition may include non-industrial properties, such as office and other uses, with the intent to reposition or redevelop the properties into industrial use or to dispose of the non-industrial assets in a manner intended to satisfy REIT safe harbor requirements to avoid prohibited transactions under REIT tax laws.
A key component of our growth strategy is to acquire properties through off-market and lightly marketed transactions that are often operating at below-market occupancy or below-market rent at the time of acquisition or that have near-term lease roll-over or that provide opportunities to add value through functional or physical repositioning and improvements. Through various repositioning, redevelopment, and professional leasing and marketing strategies, we seek to increase the properties’ functionality and attractiveness to prospective tenants and, over time, to stabilize the properties at occupancy rates that meet or exceed market rates.
A repositioning can provide a range of property improvements. This may include a complete structural renovation of a property whereby we convert large underutilized spaces into a series of smaller and more functional spaces, or it may include the creation of additional square footage, the modernization of the property site, the elimination of functional obsolescence, the addition or enhancement of loading areas and truck access, the enhancement of fire-life-safety systems or other accretive improvements, in each case designed to improve the cash flow and value of the property.
We have a number of significant repositioning properties, which are individually presented in the tables below. A repositioning property that is considered significant is typically defined as a property where a significant amount of space is held vacant in order to implement capital improvements, the cost to complete repositioning work and lease-up is estimated to be greater than $1 million and the repositioning and lease-up time frame is estimated to be greater than six months. We also have a range of other spaces in repositioning, that due to their smaller size, relative scope, projected repositioning costs or relatively nominal amount of down-time, are not presented below, however, in the aggregate, may be substantial (and which we refer to as “other repositioning projects”).
A repositioning is generally considered complete once the investment is fully or nearly fully deployed and the property is available for occupancy. Because each repositioning effort is unique and determined based on the property, targeted tenants and overall trends in the general market and specific submarket, the timing and effect of the repositioning on our rental revenue and occupancy levels will vary, and, as a result, will affect the comparison of our results of operations from period to period with limited predictability.
A redevelopment property is defined as a property where we plan to fully or partially demolish an existing building(s) due to building obsolescence and/or a property with excess or vacant land where we plan to construct a ground-up building.
As of September 30, 2024, 24 of our properties were under current repositioning or redevelopment and nine of our properties were in the lease-up stage. In addition, we have a pipeline of 15 additional properties for which we anticipate beginning repositioning/redevelopment construction work between the fourth quarter of 2024 and the fourth quarter of 2025. The tables below set forth a summary of these properties, as well as the properties that were most recently stabilized in 2023 and 2024, as the timing of these stabilizations have a direct impact on our current and comparative results of operations. We consider a repositioning/redevelopment property to be stabilized upon the earlier of (i) reaching 90% occupancy or (ii) one year from the date construction work is completed.

(1)The estimated construction start period is the period we anticipate starting physical construction on a project. Prior to physical construction, we engage in pre-construction activities, which include design work, securing permits or entitlements, site work, and other necessary activities preceding construction. The estimated completion period is our current estimate of the period in which we will have substantially completed a project and the project is made available for occupancy. We expect to update our timing estimates on a quarterly basis. The estimated construction period is subject to change as a result of a number of factors including but not limited to permit requirements, delays in construction (including delays related to supply chain backlogs), changes in scope, and other unforeseen circumstances.

(13)17907-18001 Figueroa Street will be a low coverage site with 76,468 rentable square feet of buildings on 221,055 square feet, or 5.1 acres, of land.
(14)Rancho Pacifica Building 5 is located at 2370-2398 Pacifica Place and comprises one building totaling 51,594 rentable square feet, out of six buildings at our Rancho Pacifica Park property, which has a total of 1,111,885 rentable square feet. We demolished the existing building and are constructing a new building comprising approximately 76,553 rentable square feet in its place.
(15)1500 Raymond Avenue contains one acre of excess paved land.
(16)We consider a repositioning property to be stabilized upon the earlier of (i) reaching 90% occupancy or (ii) one year from the date construction work is completed.
(17)As of June 30, 2024, 20851 Currier Road and 12752-12822 Monarch Street reached one year from the date of completion of repositioning/redevelopment work. During the third quarter of 2024, these projects rent commenced and reached 100% and 93% occupancy, respectively.
(18)12752-12822 Monarch Street comprises 275,189 rentable square feet. The project includes 111,325 rentable square feet with tenants in-place that were not redeveloped. We repositioned 65,968 rentable square feet, demolished 99,925 rentable square feet and constructed a new 97,896 rentable square foot building in its place.
Capitalized Costs
Properties that are nonoperational as a result of repositioning or redevelopment activity may qualify for varying levels of interest, insurance and real estate tax capitalization during the redevelopment and construction period. An increase in our repositioning and redevelopment activities resulting from value-add acquisitions could cause an increase in the asset balances qualifying for interest, insurance and tax capitalization in future periods. We capitalized $8.6 million and $23.9 million of interest expense and $2.1 million and $6.5 million of insurance and real estate tax expenses during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, related to our repositioning and redevelopment projects.
Construction Costs and Timing
Recent inflationary and supply chain pressures have led to increased construction materials and labor costs, which when combined with longer lead times for governmental approvals and entitlements, have led to an overall increase in budgeted and actual construction costs as well as delays in starting and completing certain of our redevelopment projects. While rent growth (see “—Leasing Activity and Rental Rates” below) over the last several years has helped to mitigate some of the impact of rising construction costs and project delays, additional increases in costs, further delays or declining market rents could result in a lower expected yield on our redevelopment projects, which could negatively impact our future earnings.
Rental Revenues
Our operating results depend primarily upon generating rental revenue from the properties in our portfolio. The amount of rental revenue generated by these properties is affected by our ability to maintain or increase occupancy levels and rental rates at our properties, which will depend upon our ability to lease vacant space and re-lease expiring space at favorable rates.
Occupancy Rates
As of September 30, 2024, our consolidated portfolio, inclusive of space in repositioning as described in the subsequent paragraph, was approximately 93.0% occupied, while our stabilized consolidated portfolio exclusive of such space was approximately 97.6% occupied. We believe the opportunity to increase occupancy at our properties will be an important driver of future revenue growth. An opportunity to drive this growth will derive from the completion and lease-up of repositioning and redevelopment projects that are currently under construction.
As summarized in the tables under “—Acquisitions and Value-Add Repositioning and Redevelopment of Properties” above, as of September 30, 2024, 24 of our properties with a combined 2.5 million of estimated rentable square feet at completion are under current repositioning or redevelopment, nine properties with a combined 1.0 million of rentable square feet are in lease-up, and we have a near-term pipeline of 15 repositioning and redevelopment projects with a combined 1.7 million of estimated rentable square feet at completion. Additionally, we have 0.5 million rentable square feet of other
repositioning projects. Vacant space at these properties is concentrated in our Los Angeles, Orange County and San Bernardino markets and represents 4.7% of our total consolidated portfolio square footage as of September 30, 2024. Including vacant space at these properties, our weighted average occupancy rate as of September 30, 2024 in our Los Angeles, Orange County and San Bernardino markets was 93.6%, 90.6% and 93.9%, respectively. Excluding vacant space at these properties, our weighted average occupancy rate as of September 30, 2024, in these markets was 98.6%, 99.0% and 97.6%, respectively. We believe that an important portion of our long-term future growth will come from the completion of these projects currently under or scheduled for repositioning/redevelopment, as well as through the identification or acquisition of new opportunities for repositioning and redevelopment, whether in our existing portfolio or through new investments, which may vary from period to period subject to market conditions.
The occupancy rate of properties not undergoing repositioning is affected by regional and local economic conditions in our Southern California infill markets. Although there has been a post-COVID normalization of market rates and vacancy over the past year, the Los Angeles, Orange County, San Bernardino and San Diego markets are well-positioned for the long-term due to fundamental demand drivers and barriers for new supply. Although we cannot predict how our markets may perform in future periods, we believe that general market conditions will continue to offer the long-term opportunity to increase occupancy and rental rates at our properties which will be an important driver of future revenue growth.
Leasing Activity and Rental Rates
The following tables set forth our leasing activity for new and renewal leases for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024:

(1)Effective rent per square foot is the average base rent calculated in accordance with GAAP, over the term of the lease, expressed in dollars per square foot per year. Includes all new and renewal leases that were executed during the quarter.
(2)Calculated as the change between GAAP rents for new or renewal leases and the expiring GAAP rents (excluding the impact of amortization of intangible assets or liabilities) on the expiring leases for the same space.
(3)Calculated as the change between starting cash rents for new or renewal leases and the expiring cash rents on the expiring leases for the same space.
(4)The GAAP and cash re-leasing spreads for new leases executed during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, exclude 62 leases aggregating 1,856,703 rentable square feet for which there was no comparable lease data. Of these 62 excluded leases, 25 leases for 1,111,401 rentable square feet were recently repositioned/redeveloped space. Comparable leases generally exclude: (i) space that has never been occupied under our ownership, (ii) repositioned/redeveloped space, including space in pre-development/entitlement process, (iii) space that has been vacant for over one year or (iv) space with lease terms shorter than six months.
(5)The GAAP and cash re-leasing rent spreads for renewal leases executed during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, exclude nine leases aggregating 847,339 rentable square feet for which there was no comparable lease data. Comparable leases generally exclude space with lease terms shorter than six months or space in pre-development/entitlement process.
(6)Includes leases totaling 1,384,437 rentable square feet that expired during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, for which the space has been or will be placed into repositioning (including “other repositioning projects”) or redevelopment.
(7)Retention is calculated as renewal lease square footage plus relocation/expansion square footage, divided by the square footage of leases expiring during the period. Retention excludes square footage related to the following: (i) expiring leases associated with space that is placed into repositioning (including “other repositioning projects”) after the tenant vacates, (ii) early terminations with pre-negotiated replacement leases and (iii) move outs where space is directly leased by subtenants.
(8)Reflects our renewal leasing activity, weighted average lease term, effective rent per square foot and leasing spreads for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, excluding a 1.1 million square foot lease extension with Tireco, Inc. at 10545 Production Avenue during the first quarter of 2024. The original Tireco, Inc. lease expiration date was January 2025 and included a fixed rate renewal option. In March 2024, the lease was extended through January 2027 at the current in-place rent at the time of execution and includes a 4% contractual rent increase in 2026 and two months of rent abatement. This lease extension was excluded for comparability purposes, in order to allow investors to make investment decisions based on our quarterly leasing statistics as compared to our prior periods.
Our leasing activity is impacted both by our repositioning and redevelopment efforts, as well as by market conditions. While we reposition a property, its space may become unavailable for leasing until completion of our repositioning efforts. As of September 30, 2024, we have 24 current repositioning/redevelopment projects with estimated construction completion periods ranging from the fourth quarter of 2024 through the fourth quarter of 2025, and an additional 15 repositioning and redevelopment projects in our pipeline with estimated construction completion dates through the second quarter of 2027. We expect these properties to have positive impacts on our leasing activity and revenue generation as we complete our value-add plans and place these properties in service.
Scheduled Lease Expirations
Our ability to re-lease space subject to expiring leases is affected by economic and competitive conditions in our markets and by the relative desirability of our individual properties, which may impact our results of operations. The following table sets forth a summary schedule of lease expirations for leases in place as of September 30, 2024, for each of the 10 full and partial calendar years beginning with 2024 and thereafter, plus space that is available and under current repositioning.

(1)Represents the contracted square footage upon expiration.
(2)Calculated as monthly contracted base rent (before rent abatements) per the terms of such lease, as of September 30, 2024, multiplied by 12. Excludes tenant reimbursements. Amounts in thousands.
(3)Calculated as annualized base rent set forth in this table divided by annualized base rent for the total portfolio as of September 30, 2024.
(4)Calculated as annualized base rent for such leases divided by the occupied square feet for such leases as of September 30, 2024.
(5)Represents vacant space (not under repositioning/redevelopment) as of September 30, 2024. Includes leases aggregating 113,363 rentable square feet that had been signed but had not yet commenced as of September 30, 2024.
(6)Represents vacant space at properties that were classified as repositioning (including “other repositioning projects”) or redevelopment properties as of September 30, 2024.
As of September 30, 2024, in addition to 1.1 million rentable square feet of currently available space in our portfolio and approximately 2.4 million rentable square feet of vacant space under current repositioning, leases representing 3.6% and 14.5% of the aggregate rentable square footage of our portfolio are scheduled to expire during the remainder of 2024 and 2025, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we renewed 185 leases for 4.2 million rentable square feet, resulting in a retention rate of 71.9%. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, new and renewal leases had a weighted average term of 4.5 and 4.3 years (excluding the 1.1 million square foot lease extension noted above under “—Leasing Activity and Rental Rates”), and we expect future new and renewal leases to have similar terms.
The leases scheduled to expire during the remainder of 2024 and 2025 represent approximately 3.3% and 14.6%, respectively, of the total annualized base rent for our portfolio as of September 30, 2024. We estimate that, on a weighted average basis, in-place rents of leases scheduled to expire during the remainder of 2024 and 2025 are currently below current market asking rates, although individual units or properties within any particular submarket may currently be leased either above, below, or at the current market asking rates within that submarket.
As described under “—Market and Portfolio Fundamentals” above, while market indicators, including changes in vacancy rates and average asking lease rates, varied by market and showed signs of a post-pandemic normalizing of tenant demand, overall there was continued low market vacancy and supply and demand imbalance across our submarkets, which continues to support favorable long-term market fundamentals.
Conditions in Our Markets
The properties in our portfolio are located primarily in Southern California infill markets. Positive or negative changes in economic or other conditions, high or persistent inflation and adverse weather conditions and natural disasters in this market may affect our overall performance.
Property Expenses
Our property expenses generally consist of utilities, real estate taxes, insurance, site repair and maintenance costs, and the allocation of overhead costs. For the majority of our properties, our property expenses are recovered, in part, by either the triple net provisions or modified gross expense reimbursements in tenant leases. The majority of our leases also comprise contractual three percent or greater annual rental rate increases meant, in part, to help mitigate potential increases in property expenses over time. However, the terms of our leases vary, and, in some instances, we may absorb property expenses. Our overall financial results will be impacted by the extent to which we are able to pass-through property expenses to our tenants.
Taxable REIT Subsidiary
As of September 30, 2024, our Operating Partnership indirectly and wholly owns Rexford Industrial Realty and Management, Inc., which we refer to as our services company. We have elected, together with our services company, to treat our services company as a taxable REIT subsidiary for federal income tax purposes. A taxable REIT subsidiary generally may provide non-customary and other services to our tenants and engage in activities that we or our subsidiaries (other than a taxable REIT subsidiary) may not engage in directly without adversely affecting our qualification as a REIT, provided a taxable REIT subsidiary may not operate or manage a lodging facility or health care facility or provide rights to any brand name under which any lodging facility or health care facility is operated. We may form additional taxable REIT subsidiaries in the future, and our Operating Partnership may contribute some or all of its interests in certain wholly owned subsidiaries or their assets to our services company. Any income earned by our taxable REIT subsidiaries will not be included in our taxable income for purposes of the 75% or 95% gross income tests, except to the extent such income is distributed to us as a dividend, in which case such dividend income will qualify under the 95%, but not the 75%, gross income test. Because a taxable REIT subsidiary is subject to federal income tax, and state and local income tax (where applicable) as a regular corporation, the income earned by our taxable REIT subsidiaries generally will be subject to an additional level of tax as compared to the income earned by our other subsidiaries. Our taxable REIT subsidiary is a C-corporation subject to federal and state income tax. However, it has a cumulative unrecognized net operation loss carryforward and therefore there is no income tax provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. Additionally, the taxable REIT subsidiary had minimal activity during these periods.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses for the reporting periods. Actual amounts may differ from these estimates and assumptions. Management evaluates these estimates on an ongoing basis, based upon information currently available and on various assumptions that it believes are reasonable as of the date hereof. In addition, other companies in similar businesses may use different estimation policies and methodologies, which may affect the comparability of our results of operations and financial condition to those of other companies.
In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, we identified certain critical accounting policies that affect certain of our more significant estimates and assumptions used in preparing our consolidated financial statements. We have not made any material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates during the period covered by this report.
Results of Operations
Our consolidated results of operations are often not comparable from period to period due to the effect of (i) property acquisitions, (ii) property dispositions and (iii) properties that are taken out of service for repositioning or redevelopment during the comparative reporting periods. Our “Total Portfolio” represents all of the properties owned during the reported periods. To eliminate the effect of changes in our Total Portfolio due to acquisitions, dispositions, and repositioning/redevelopment and to highlight the operating results of our on-going business, we have separately presented the results of our “Same Property Portfolio.”
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, our Same Property Portfolio includes all properties in our portfolio that were wholly-owned by us for the period from January 1, 2023 through September 30, 2024, and that were stabilized prior to January 1, 2023, which consisted of buildings aggregating approximately 37.0 million rentable square feet at 293 of our properties. Results for our Same Property Portfolio exclude properties that were acquired or sold during the period from January 1, 2023 through September 30, 2024, properties or buildings classified as current or future repositioning (including select buildings in “other repositioning”), redevelopment or lease-up during 2023 or 2024, interest income, interest expense and corporate general and administrative expenses.
In addition to the properties included in our Same Property Portfolio, our Total Portfolio includes the 73 properties aggregating approximately 8.3 million rentable square feet that were purchased between January 1, 2023 and September 30, 2024, and the seven properties aggregating approximately 0.3 million rentable square feet that were sold between January 1, 2023 and September 30, 2024.
At September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, our Same Property Portfolio occupancy was approximately 96.7% and 97.4%, respectively. For both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, our Same Property Portfolio weighted average occupancy was approximately 96.9%. Comparatively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, our Same Property Portfolio weighted average occupancy was approximately 97.2% and 97.1%, respectively.

Rental Income
In the following table, we present the components of rental income for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, which includes rental revenue, tenant reimbursements and other income related to leases.

Our Same Property Portfolio and Total Portfolio rental income increased by $4.9 million, or 2.9%, and $34.2 million, or 16.7%, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023, for the reasons described below:
(1) Rental Revenue
Our Same Property Portfolio and Total Portfolio rental revenue increased by $4.3 million, or 3.1%, and $28.0 million, or 16.6%, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in our Same Property Portfolio rental revenue is primarily due to an increase in average rental rates on new and renewal leases, partially offset by a decrease of $1.1 million in amortization of net below-market lease intangibles, an increase of $0.9 million in bad debt reserves/write-offs for tenant receivables not deemed probable of collection reflecting net reserves/write-offs of $0.4 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to net recoveries of $0.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2023, and a decrease in average occupancy rates. Our Total Portfolio rental revenue was also positively impacted by the incremental revenues from the 73 properties we acquired between January 1, 2023 and September 30, 2024.
(2) Tenant Reimbursements
Our Same Property Portfolio tenant reimbursements revenue increased by $0.5 million, or 1.9%, and our Total Portfolio tenant reimbursements revenue increased by $6.1 million, or 17.6%, during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in our Same Property Portfolio tenant reimbursements revenue is primarily due to higher reimbursable utility expenses and other reimbursable expenses, partially offset by a decrease in reimbursable insurance expenses due to lower-than-expected renewal insurance premiums for the 2024-2025 policy year. Our Total Portfolio tenant reimbursements revenue was also impacted by the incremental tenant reimbursements from the 73 properties we acquired between January 1, 2023 and September 30, 2024.
(3) Other Income
Our Same Property Portfolio and Total Portfolio other income increased by $0.1 million, or 20.8%, and $0.1 million, or 12.0%, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to an increase in fees charged for late rental payments.
Management and Leasing Services
Our Total Portfolio management and leasing services revenue decreased by $2 thousand, or 1.3%, during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Interest Income
Interest income increased from $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 to $3.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to a $2.5 million increase related to interest earned on the $125.0 million loan that we originated in October 2023, partially offset by a $0.3 million decrease in interest earned on our money market accounts, primarily due to a decrease in the average cash balance invested in money market accounts.
Property Expenses
Our Same Property Portfolio and Total Portfolio property expenses increased by $1.6 million, or 4.0%, and $6.8 million, or 14.1%, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in our Same Property Portfolio property expenses is primarily due to increases in utility expenses, property tax expenses and repairs and maintenance expenses. Our Total Portfolio property expenses were also impacted by incremental expenses from the 73 properties we acquired between January 1, 2023 and September 30, 2024.
General and Administrative
Our Total Portfolio general and administrative expenses increased by $2.4 million, or 12.7%, during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to increases in non-cash equity compensation expense primarily related to performance unit equity grants made in 2023 and 2022, and non-executive payroll related costs and accrued bonus expense due to a higher employee headcount and rising labor costs.
Depreciation and Amortization
Our Same Property Portfolio depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $1.1 million, or 2.3%, during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to acquisition-related in-place lease intangibles becoming fully depreciated at certain of our properties subsequent to January 1, 2023, partially offset by an increase in depreciation expense related to capital improvements placed into service subsequent to January 1, 2023 and an increase in amortization of deferred leasing costs. Our Total Portfolio depreciation and amortization expense increased by $8.8 million, or 14.5%, during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to the incremental expense from the 73 properties we acquired between January 1, 2023 and September 30, 2024.
Other Expenses
Our Total Portfolio other expenses decreased by $0.1 million from $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 to $0.5 million for three months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to a $0.4 million decrease in construction demolition costs, partially offset by a $0.3 million increase in write-offs of construction costs related to cancelled projects.
Interest Expense
Our Total Portfolio interest expense increased by $11.4 million, or 71.4%, during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to a $13.8 million increase related to the aggregate $1.15 billion of exchangeable notes offering we completed in March 2024, partially offset by a $2.4 million decrease due to an increase in capitalized interest related to repositioning and redevelopment activity.
Gains on Sale of Real Estate
During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we recognized gains on sale of real estate of $1.7 million from the disposition of one property that was sold for a gross sales price of $7.3 million. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, we did not complete any property dispositions.

Our Same Property Portfolio and Total Portfolio rental income increased by $23.7 million, or 4.8%, and $98.9 million, or 16.9%, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, for the reasons described below:
(1) Rental Revenue
Our Same Property Portfolio and Total Portfolio rental revenue increased by $19.9 million, or 4.8%, and $80.8 million, or 16.7%, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in our Same Property Portfolio rental revenue is primarily due to an increase in average rental rates on new and renewal leases, partially offset by a decrease of $2.4 million in amortization of net below-market lease intangibles, an increase of $1.6 million in net bad debt reserves/write-offs for tenant receivables not deemed probable of collection and a decrease in average occupancy rates. Our Total Portfolio rental revenue was also positively impacted by the incremental revenues from the 73 properties we acquired between January 1, 2023 and September 30, 2024.
(2) Tenant Reimbursements
Our Same Property Portfolio tenant reimbursements revenue increased by $3.6 million, or 4.3%, and our Total Portfolio tenant reimbursements revenue increased by $17.8 million, or 18.1% during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in our Same Property Portfolio tenant reimbursements revenue is primarily due to higher reimbursable property tax expenses, higher billings for other reimbursable expenses and higher reimbursable insurance expenses due to higher overall premiums. Our Total Portfolio tenant reimbursements revenue was also impacted by the incremental tenant reimbursements from the 73 properties we acquired between January 1, 2023 and September 30, 2024.
(3) Other Income
Our Same Property Portfolio and Total Portfolio other income increased by $0.3 million, or 18.1%, and $0.3 million, or 16.8%, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to an increase in fees charged for late rental payments.
Management and Leasing Services
Our Total Portfolio management and leasing services revenue decreased by $0.1 million, or 14.5%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Interest Income
Interest income increased from $3.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 to $10.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to a $7.5 million increase related to interest earned on the $125.0 million loan that we originated in October 2023.
Property Expenses
Our Same Property Portfolio and Total Portfolio property expenses increased by $5.5 million, or 4.9%, and $19.0 million, or 14.1%, respectively, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in our Same Property Portfolio property expenses is primarily due to increases in property tax expenses, insurance expenses as a result of higher overall premiums, repairs and maintenance expenses, utility expenses and allocated overhead costs driven by higher employee headcount and rising labor costs. Our Total Portfolio property expenses were also impacted by incremental expenses from the 73 properties we acquired between January 1, 2023 and September 30, 2024.
General and Administrative
Our Total Portfolio general and administrative expenses increased by $5.2 million, or 9.4%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to non-executive payroll related costs and accrued bonus expense due to a higher employee headcount and rising labor costs and increases in non-cash equity compensation expense primarily related to performance unit equity grants made in 2023 and 2022.
Depreciation and Amortization
Our Same Property Portfolio depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $2.2 million, or 1.5%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to acquisition-related in-place lease intangibles becoming fully depreciated at certain of our properties subsequent to January 1, 2023, partially offset by an increase in depreciation expense related to capital improvements placed into service subsequent to January 1, 2023 and an increase in amortization of deferred leasing costs. Our Total Portfolio depreciation and amortization expense increased by $24.7 million, or 13.8%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to the incremental expense from the 73 properties we acquired between January 1, 2023 and September 30, 2024.
Other Expenses
Our Total Portfolio other expenses increased by $0.7 million from $1.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, to $2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to a $0.7 million increase in write-offs of construction costs related to cancelled projects and a $0.4 million increase in construction demolition costs, partially offset by a $0.2 million decrease in acquisition dead deal costs and a $0.2 million impairment charge recorded in February 2023 to reduce the carrying value of the right-of-use asset in connection with the early termination of a sublease for one of our office space leases.
Interest Expense
Our Total Portfolio interest expense increased by $23.6 million, or 50.4%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to a $28.1 million increase related to the aggregate $1.15 billion of exchangeable notes offering we completed in March 2024 and a $4.0 million increase related to the $300.0 million of 5.000% Senior Notes due 2028 offering we completed in March 2023, partially offset by a $7.8 million decrease due to an increase in capitalized interest related to repositioning and redevelopment activity.
Gains on Sale of Real Estate
During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recognized gains on sale of real estate of $18.0 million from the disposition of five properties that were sold for an aggregate gross sales price of $44.3 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recognized gains on sale of real estate of $12.1 million from the disposition of one property that was sold for a gross sales price of $17.0 million.
Non-GAAP Supplemental Measure: Funds From Operations and Core Funds From Operations
We calculate funds from operations (“FFO”) attributable to common stockholder in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). FFO represents net income (loss) (computed in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”)), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property or assets incidental to our business, impairment losses of depreciable operating property or assets incidental to our business, real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) and after adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures.
Management uses FFO as a supplemental performance measure because, in excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization, gains and losses from property dispositions, and asset impairments, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. We also believe that, as a widely recognized measure of performance used by other REITs, FFO may be used by investors as a basis to compare our operating performance with that of other REITs.
However, because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effects and could materially impact our results from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of our performance is limited. Other equity REITs may not calculate or interpret FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition as we do, and, accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to such other REITs’ FFO. FFO should not be used as a measure of our liquidity and is not indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends.
We calculate “Core FFO” by adjusting FFO for non-comparable items outlined in the reconciliation below. We believe that Core FFO is a useful supplemental measure and that by adjusting for items that are not considered by us to be part of our on-going operating performance, provides a more meaningful and consistent comparison of our operating and financial performance period-over-period. Because these adjustments have a real economic impact on our financial condition and results from operations, the utility of Core FFO as a measure of our performance is limited. Other REITs may not calculate Core FFO in a consistent manner. Accordingly, our Core FFO may not be comparable to other REITs' core FFO. Core FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income computed in accordance with GAAP as a measure of our performance.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of net income, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, to FFO and Core FFO (in thousands):

Non-GAAP Supplemental Measures: NOI and Cash NOI
Net operating income (“NOI”) is a non-GAAP measure which includes the revenue and expense directly attributable to our real estate properties. NOI is calculated as rental income less property expenses (before interest expense, depreciation and amortization).
We use NOI as a supplemental performance measure because, in excluding real estate depreciation and amortization expense, general and administrative expenses, interest expense, gains (or losses) on sale of real estate and other non-operating items, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. We also believe that NOI will be useful to investors as a basis to compare our operating performance with that of other REITs. However, because NOI excludes depreciation and amortization expense and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties (all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our results from operations), the utility of NOI as a measure of our performance is limited. Other equity REITs may not calculate NOI in a similar manner and, accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to such other REITs’ NOI. Accordingly, NOI should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of our performance. NOI should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs. NOI should not be used as a substitute for cash flow from operating activities in accordance with GAAP.
NOI on a cash-basis (“Cash NOI”) is a non-GAAP measure, which we calculate by adding or subtracting the following items from NOI: (i) amortization of above/(below) market lease intangibles and amortization of other deferred rent resulting from sale leaseback transactions with below market leaseback payments and (ii) straight-line rental revenue adjustments. We use Cash NOI, together with NOI, as a supplemental performance measure. Cash NOI should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs. Cash NOI should not be used as a substitute for cash flow from operating activities computed in accordance with GAAP.
The following table sets forth the revenue and expense items comprising NOI and the adjustments to calculate Cash NOI (in thousands):

Non-GAAP Supplemental Measure: EBITDAre
We calculate earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization for real estate (“EBITDAre”) in accordance with the standards established by NAREIT. EBITDAre is calculated as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property or assets incidental to our business, impairment losses of depreciable operating property or assets incidental to our business and adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures.
We believe that EBITDAre is helpful to investors as a supplemental measure of our operating performance as a real estate company because it is a direct measure of the actual operating results of our properties. We also use this measure in ratios to compare our performance to that of our industry peers. In addition, we believe EBITDAre is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of equity REITs. However, our industry peers may not calculate EBITDAre in accordance with the NAREIT definition as we do and, accordingly, our EBITDAre may not be comparable to our peers’ EBITDAre. Accordingly, EBITDAre should be considered only as a supplement to net income (loss) as a measure of our performance.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of net income, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, to EBITDAre (in thousands):

(1)Includes the effect of interest rate swaps that were effective as of September 30, 2024. Interest rates are not adjusted to include the amortization of debt issuance costs or unamortized fair market value premiums/discounts or the facility fee on the Revolver.
(2)Excludes unamortized debt issuance costs and premiums/discounts totaling $36.1 million, which are presented as a reduction of the carrying value of our debt in our consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2024.
(3)Fixed-rate debt includes our variable rate debts that have been effectively fixed through the use of interest rate swaps through maturity.
At September 30, 2024, we had consolidated indebtedness of $3.4 billion, reflecting a net debt to total combined market capitalization of approximately 22.2%. Our total market capitalization is defined as the sum of the liquidation preference of our outstanding preferred stock and preferred units plus the market value of our common stock excluding shares of nonvested restricted stock, plus the aggregate value of common units not owned by us, plus the value of our net debt. Our net debt is defined as our consolidated indebtedness less cash and cash equivalents.
Debt Covenants
The Credit Agreement, $60 Million Term Loan, $100 Million Notes, $125 Million Notes and Series 2019A and 2019B Notes all include a series of financial and other covenants that we must comply with, including the following covenants which are tested on a quarterly basis:
•Maintaining a ratio of total indebtedness to total asset value of not more than 60%;
•For the Credit Agreement and $60 Million Term Loan, maintaining a ratio of secured debt to total asset value of not more than 45%;
•For the $100 Million Notes, $125 Million Notes and Series 2019A and 2019B Notes (together the “Senior Notes”), maintaining a ratio of secured debt to total asset value of not more than 40%;

•For the Credit Agreement and Senior Notes, maintaining a ratio of unencumbered NOI (as defined in each of the loan agreements) to unsecured interest expense of at least 1.75 to 1.00.
The $300 Million Notes due 2028, $400 Million Notes due 2030 and $400 Million Notes due 2031 (together the “Registered Notes”) contain the following covenants (as defined in the indentures) that we must comply with:
•Maintaining a ratio of total indebtedness to total asset value of not more than 60%;
•Maintaining a ratio of secured debt to total asset value of not more than 40%;
•Maintaining a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.5 to 1.0; and
•Maintaining a ratio of unencumbered assets to unsecured debt of at least 1.5 to 1.0.
Subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, $60 Million Term Loan, Senior Notes and Registered Notes, upon certain events of default, including, but not limited to, (i) a default in the payment of any principal or interest, (ii) a default in the payment of certain of our other indebtedness and (iii) a default in compliance with the covenants set forth in the debt agreement, the principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding debt may be declared immediately due and payable at the option of the administrative agent, lenders, trustee and/or noteholders, as applicable, and in the event of bankruptcy and other insolvency defaults, the principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the outstanding debt will become immediately due and payable. In addition, we are required to maintain at all times a credit rating on the Senior Notes from either S&P, Moody’s or Fitch.
We were in compliance with all of our quarterly debt covenants as of September 30, 2024.
Cash Flows
Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023
The following table summarizes the changes in net cash flows associated with our operating, investing, and financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | Nine Months Ended September 30, | | |
| | | 2024 | | 2023 | | Change |
| Cash provided by operating activities | | $ | 362,661 | | | $ | 311,561 | | | $ | 51,100 | |
| Cash used in investing activities | | $ | (1,539,143) | | | $ | (1,272,780) | | | $ | (266,363) | |
| Cash provided by financing activities | | $ | 1,204,874 | | | $ | 1,007,701 | | | $ | 197,173 | |
Net cash provided by operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $51.1 million to $362.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $311.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to the incremental cash flows from property acquisitions completed subsequent to January 1, 2023 and the increase in Cash NOI from our Same Property Portfolio, partially offset by higher cash interest paid as compared to the prior year period and changes in working capital.
Net cash used in investing activities. Net cash used in investing activities increased by $266.4 million to $1.5 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $1.3 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to a $175.8 million increase in cash paid for property acquisitions and a $117.8 million increase in cash paid for construction costs, including costs related to repositioning/redevelopment projects, partially offset by a $25.0 million increase in proceeds from the sale of real estate for comparable periods.
Net cash provided by financing activities. Net cash provided by financing activities increased by $197.2 million to $1.2 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $1.0 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase of $1.1 billion in net cash proceeds from the issuance of the Exchangeable Notes in March 2024. This increase was partially offset by the following: (i) a decrease of $580.8 million in net cash proceeds from the issuance of shares of our common stock, (ii) a decrease of $296.9 million in net cash proceeds from the issuance of the $300 Million Notes in March 2023 and (iii) an increase of $51.9 million in cash dividends paid to common stockholders and common unitholders as a result of an increase in our quarterly per share/unit cash dividend and an increase in the number of common shares outstanding.
Inflation
We do not believe that inflation has historically had a material impact on the Company. While currently moderating, significant inflation in recent years has resulted in increased operating expenses, capital expenditures and cost of our variable-rate borrowings which could have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations. The majority of our leases are either triple net or provide for tenant reimbursement for costs related to real estate taxes and operating expenses. In addition, most of the leases provide for fixed rent increases. We believe that inflationary increases to real estate taxes, utility expenses and other operating expenses may be partially offset by the contractual rent increases and tenant payment of taxes and expenses described above.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Market risk refers to the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. A key market risk we face is interest rate risk. We are exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of using variable-rate debt to satisfy various short-term and long-term liquidity needs, which have interest rates based upon SOFR. We use interest rate swaps to manage, or hedge, interest rate risks related to our borrowings. Because actual interest rate movements over time are uncertain, our swaps pose potential interest rate risks, notably if interest rates fall. We also expose ourselves to credit risk, which we attempt to minimize by contracting with highly-rated banking financial counterparties. For a summary of our outstanding debt, see Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Liquidity and Capital Resources. For a summary of our interest rate swaps and recent transactions, see “Note 8 – Interest Rate Derivatives” to our consolidated financial statements.
As of September 30, 2024, we had total consolidated indebtedness, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs and premiums/discounts, of $3.39 billion. As of September 30, 2024, 100% of this consolidated indebtedness is fixed-rate debt under the terms of the loan or through the use of interest rate swaps. As such, as of September 30, 2024, if SOFR were to increase or decrease, there would be no impact to interest expense or future earnings and cash flows.
Interest risk amounts are our management’s estimates and are determined by considering the effect of hypothetical interest rates on our financial instruments. We calculate interest sensitivity by multiplying the amount of variable rate debt outstanding by the respective change in rate. The sensitivity analysis does not take into consideration the possibility of future changes in the balances or fair value of our floating rate debt or the effect of any change in overall economic activity that could occur in that environment. Further, in the event of a change of that magnitude, we may take actions to further mitigate our exposure to the change. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, this analysis assumes no changes in our financial structure.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is processed, recorded, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Security and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2024, the end of the period covered by this report.
Based on the foregoing, our Co-Chief Executive Officers and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
