EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2017 of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation and Mack-Cali Realty, L.P. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to the “Operating Partnership” mean Mack-Cali Realty, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, and references to the “General Partner” mean Mack-Cali Realty Corporation, a Maryland corporation and real estate investment trust (“REIT”), and its subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership.  References to the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” mean collectively the General Partner, the Operating Partnership and those entities/subsidiaries consolidated by the General Partner.

 

The Operating Partnership conducts the business of providing leasing, management, acquisition, development, construction and tenant-related services for its General Partner.  The Operating Partnership, through its operating divisions and subsidiaries, including the Mack-Cali property-owning partnerships and limited liability companies is the entity through which all of the General Partner’s operations are conducted.  The General Partner is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and has exclusive control of the Operating Partnership’s day-to-day management.

 

As of June 30, 2017, the General Partner owned an approximate 89.6 percent common unit interest in the Operating Partnership.  The remaining approximate 10.4 percent common unit interest is owned by limited partners.  The limited partners of the Operating Partnership are (1) persons who contributed their interests in properties to the Operating Partnership in exchange for common units (each, a “Common Unit”) or preferred units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership or (2) recipients of long term incentive plan units of the Operating Partnership pursuant to the General Partner’s executive compensation plans.

 

A Common Unit of the Operating Partnership and a share of common stock of the General Partner (the “Common Stock”) have substantially the same economic characteristics in as much as they effectively share equally in the net income or loss of the Company.  The General Partner owns a number of common units of the Operating Partnership equal to the number of issued and outstanding shares of the General Partner’s common stock.  Common unitholders (other than the General Partner) have the right to redeem their Common Units, subject to certain restrictions under the Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Operating Partnership, as amended (the “Partnership Agreement”) and agreed upon at the time of issuance of the units that may restrict such right for a period of time, generally one year from issuance.  The redemption is required to be satisfied in shares of Common Stock of the General Partner, cash, or a combination thereof, calculated as follows:  one share of the General Partner’s Common Stock, or cash equal to the fair market value of a share of the General Partner’s Common Stock at the time of redemption, for each Common Unit.  The General Partner, in its sole discretion, determines the form of redemption of Common Units (i.e., whether a common unitholder receives Common Stock of the General Partner, cash, or any combination thereof).  If the General Partner elects to satisfy the redemption with shares of Common Stock of the General Partner as opposed to cash, the General Partner is obligated to issue shares of its Common Stock to the redeeming unitholder.  Regardless of the rights described above, the common unitholders may not put their units for cash to the Company or the General Partner under any circumstances.  With each such redemption, the General Partner’s percentage ownership in the Operating Partnership will increase. In addition, whenever the General Partner issues shares of its Common Stock other than to acquire Common Units, the General Partner must contribute any net proceeds it receives to the Operating Partnership and the Operating Partnership must issue to the General Partner an equivalent number of Common Units.  This structure is commonly referred to as an umbrella partnership REIT, or UPREIT.

 

The Company believes that combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of the General Partner and the Operating Partnership into this single report provides the following benefits:

 

·          enhance investors’ understanding of the General Partner 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 of the Company;

 

·          eliminate duplicative disclosure and provide a more streamlined and readable presentation because a substantial portion of the disclosure applies to both the General Partner and the Operating Partnership; and

 

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

 

The Company believes it is important to understand the few differences between the General Partner and the Operating Partnership in the context of how they operate as a consolidated company.  The financial results of the Operating Partnership are consolidated into the financial statements of the General Partner.  The General Partner does not have any other significant assets, liabilities or operations, other than its interests in the Operating Partnership, nor does the Operating Partnership have employees of its own.  The Operating Partnership, not the General Partner, generally executes all significant business relationships other than

transactions involving the securities of the General Partner.  The Operating Partnership holds substantially all of the assets of the General Partner, including ownership interests in joint ventures.  The Operating Partnership conducts the operations of the business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity.  Except for the net proceeds from equity offerings by the General Partner, which are contributed to the capital of the Operating Partnership in consideration of common or preferred units in the Operating Partnership, as applicable, the Operating Partnership generates all remaining capital required by the Company’s business. These sources include working capital, net cash provided by operating activities, borrowings under the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility and unsecured term loan facilities, the issuance of secured and unsecured debt and equity securities and proceeds received from the disposition of properties and joint ventures.

 

Shareholders’ equity, partners’ capital and noncontrolling interests are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of the General Partner and the Operating Partnership.  The limited partners of the Operating Partnership are accounted for as partners’ capital in the Operating Partnership’s financial statements as is the General Partner’s interest in the Operating Partnership.  The noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership’s financial statements comprise the interests of unaffiliated partners in various consolidated partnerships and development joint venture partners.  The noncontrolling interests in the General Partner’s financial statements are the same noncontrolling interests at the Operating Partnership’s level and include limited partners of the Operating Partnership.  The differences between shareholders’ equity and partners’ capital result from differences in the equity issued at the General Partner and Operating Partnership levels.

 

To help investors better understand the key differences between the General Partner and the Operating Partnership, certain information for the General Partner and the Operating Partnership in this report has been separated, as set forth below:

 

·                                          Item 1.         Financial Statements (unaudited), which includes the following specific disclosures for the General Partner and the Operating Partnership:

 

·                  Note 2.    Significant Accounting Policies, where applicable;

 

·                  Note 14.  Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests;

 

·                  Note 15.  Mack-Cali Realty Corporation’s Stockholders’ Equity and Mack-Cali Realty, L.P.’s Partners’ Capital;

 

·                  Note 16.  Noncontrolling Interests in Subsidiaries; and

 

·                  Note 17.  Segment Reporting, where applicable.

 

·                                          Item 2.         Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations includes information specific to each entity, where applicable.

 

This report also includes separate Part I, Item 4. Controls and Procedures sections and separate Exhibits 31 and 32 certifications for each of the General Partner and the Operating Partnership in order to establish that the requisite certifications have been made and that the General Partner and Operating Partnership are compliant with Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and 18 U.S.C. §1350.

MACK-CALI REALTY CORPORATION, MACK-CALI REALTY, L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

 

1.    ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

ORGANIZATION

 

Mack-Cali Realty Corporation, a Maryland corporation, together with its subsidiaries (collectively, the “General Partner”) is a fully-integrated self-administered, self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”).  The General Partner controls Mack-Cali Realty, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, together with its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Operating Partnership”), as its sole general partner and owned an 89.6 and 89.5 percent common unit interest in the Operating Partnership as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.  The General Partner’s business is the ownership of interests in and operation of the Operating Partnership and all of the General Partner’s expenses are incurred for the benefit of the Operating Partnership.  The General Partner is reimbursed by the Operating Partnership for all expenses it incurs relating to the ownership and operation of the Operating Partnership.

 

The Operating Partnership conducts the business of providing leasing, management, acquisition, development and tenant-related services for its General Partner.  The Operating Partnership, through its operating divisions and subsidiaries, including the Mack-Cali property-owning partnerships and limited liability companies, is the entity through which all of the General Partner’s operations are conducted.  Unless stated otherwise or the context requires, the “Company” refers to the General Partner and its subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries.

 

As of June 30, 2017, the Company owned or had interests in 214 properties, consisting of 86 office and 110 flex properties, totaling approximately 22.8 million square feet, leased to approximately 1,100 commercial tenants, and 18 multi-family rental properties containing 5,825 residential units, plus developable land (collectively, the “Properties”).  The Properties are comprised of 86 office buildings totaling approximately 17.5 million square feet (which include five buildings, aggregating approximately 1.4 million square feet owned by unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company has investment interests), 94 office/flex buildings totaling approximately 4.8 million square feet, six industrial/warehouse buildings totaling approximately 387,400 square feet, 18 multi-family properties totaling 5,825 apartments (which include eight properties aggregating 3,275 apartments owned by unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company has investment interests), six parking/retail properties totaling approximately 137,100 square feet (which include two buildings aggregating 81,700 square feet owned by unconsolidated joint ventures in which the Company has investment interests), one hotel (which is owned by an unconsolidated joint venture in which the Company has an investment interest) and three parcels of land leased to others.  The Properties are located in six states, primarily in the Northeast, plus the District of Columbia.

 

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Company, its majority-owned and/or controlled subsidiaries, which consist principally of the Operating Partnership and variable interest entities for which the Company has determined itself to be the primary beneficiary, if any.  See Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies — Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures, for the Company’s treatment of unconsolidated joint venture interests.  Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation, provides guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights (“variable interest entities” or “VIEs”) and the determination of which business enterprise, if any, should consolidate the VIEs.  Generally, the consideration of whether an entity is a VIE applies when either: (1) the equity investors (if any) lack (i) the ability to make decisions about the entity’s activities through voting or similar rights, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity; (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support; or (3) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interests and substantially all of the activities of the entity involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with a disproportionately small voting interest.  The Company consolidates VIEs in which it is considered to be the primary beneficiary.  The primary beneficiary is defined by the entity having both of the following characteristics: (1) the power to direct the activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the variable interest entity’s performance: and (2) the obligation to absorb losses and right to receive the returns from the VIE that would be significant to the VIE.

 

On January 1, 2016, the Company adopted accounting guidance under ASC 810, Consolidation, modifying the analysis it must perform to determine whether it should consolidate certain types of legal entities.  The guidance does not amend the existing disclosure requirements for variable interest entities or voting interest model entities.  The guidance, however, modified the requirements to qualify under the voting interest model.  Under the revised guidance, the Operating Partnership will be a variable interest entity of the parent company, Mack-Cali Realty Corporation.  As the Operating Partnership is already consolidated in the balance sheets of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation, the identification of this entity as a variable interest entity has no impact on the

 

16



Table of Contents

 

consolidated financial statements of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation.  There were no other legal entities qualifying under the scope of the revised guidance that were consolidated as a result of the adoption.

 

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company’s investments in consolidated real estate joint ventures, which are variable interest entities in which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary, other than Roseland Residential, L.P.  (See Note 3: Rockpoint Transaction), have total real estate assets of $162.4 million and $201.9 million, respectively, mortgages of $62 million and $78.4 million, respectively, and other liabilities of $17.4 million and $19.2 million, respectively.

 

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s historical experience that are believed to be reasonable at the time.  However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts in order to conform with current period presentation.

 

2.    SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Rental

Property                                                                        Rental properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization.  Costs directly related to the acquisition, development and construction of rental properties are capitalized.  Acquisition—related costs were expensed as incurred through December 31, 2016.  The Company early adopted the recently issued FASB guidance Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-01 on January 1, 2017 which revises the definition of a business and is expected to result in more transactions to be accounted for as asset acquisitions and significantly limit transactions that would be accounted for as business combinations.  Where an acquisition has been determined to be an asset acquisition, acquisition-related costs are capitalized.  Capitalized development and construction costs include pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, development and construction costs, interest, property taxes, insurance, salaries and other project costs incurred during the period of development.  Capitalized development and construction salaries and related costs approximated $0.6 million and $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $1.2 million and $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.  Included in total rental property is construction, tenant improvement and development in-progress of $390.7 million and $361.1 million as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.  Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred; major replacements and betterments, which improve or extend the life of the asset, are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.  Fully-depreciated assets are removed from the accounts.

 

The Company considers a construction project as substantially completed and held available for occupancy upon the substantial completion of tenant improvements, but no later than one year from cessation of major construction activity (as distinguished from activities such as routine maintenance and cleanup).  If portions of a rental project are substantially completed and occupied by tenants, or held available for occupancy, and other portions have not yet reached that stage, the substantially completed portions are accounted for as a separate project.  The Company allocates costs incurred between the portions under construction and the portions substantially completed and held available for occupancy, primarily based on a percentage of the relative square footage of each portion, and capitalizes only those costs associated with the portion under construction.

 

Properties are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.  The estimated useful lives are as follows:

 

Leasehold interests

 

Remaining lease term

Buildings and improvements

 

5 to 40 years

Tenant improvements

 

The shorter of the term of the related lease or useful life

Furniture, fixtures and equipment

 

5 to 10 years

 

Upon acquisition of rental property, the Company estimates the fair value of acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and improvements, and identified intangible assets and liabilities assumed, generally consisting of the fair value of (i) above and below-market leases, (ii) in-place leases and (iii) tenant relationships.  The Company allocates the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on

 

17



Table of Contents

 

their fair values.  The Company records goodwill or a gain on bargain purchase (if any) if the net assets acquired/liabilities assumed differ from the purchase consideration of a transaction.

 

In estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired, the Company considers information obtained about each property as a result of its due diligence and marketing and leasing activities, and utilizes various valuation methods, such as estimated cash flow projections utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates, estimates of replacement costs net of depreciation, and available market information.  The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it were vacant.

 

Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are initially recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the remaining initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases.  The capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of base rental revenue over the remaining terms of the respective leases, and the capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to base rental revenue over the remaining initial terms plus the terms of any below-market fixed rate renewal options of the respective leases.

 

Other intangible assets acquired include amounts for in-place lease values and tenant relationship values, which are based on management’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and the Company’s overall relationship with the respective tenant.  Factors to be considered by management in its analysis of in-place lease values include an estimate of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases.  In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods, depending on local market conditions.  In estimating costs to execute similar leases, management considers leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses.  Characteristics considered by management in valuing tenant relationships include the nature and extent of the Company’s existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant’s credit quality and expectations of lease renewals.  The value of in-place leases are amortized to expense over the remaining initial terms of the respective leases.  The value of tenant relationship intangibles are amortized to expense over the anticipated life of the relationships.

 

On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the Company’s rental properties held for use may be impaired.  In addition to identifying any specific circumstances which may affect a property or properties, management considers other criteria for determining which properties may require assessment for potential impairment.  The criteria considered by management include reviewing low leased percentages, significant near-term lease expirations, current and historical operating and/or cash flow losses, near-term mortgage debt maturities and/or other factors, including those that might impact the Company’s intent and ability to hold the property.  A property’s value is impaired only if management’s estimate of the aggregate future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) to be generated by the property is less than the carrying value of the property.  To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss shall be measured as the excess of the carrying value of the property over the fair value of the property.  The Company’s estimates of aggregate future cash flows expected to be generated by each property are based on a number of assumptions.  These assumptions are generally based on management’s experience in its local real estate markets and the effects of current market conditions.  The assumptions are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, among others, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, and costs to operate each property.  As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management’s assumptions, the future cash flows estimated by management in its impairment analyses may not be achieved, and actual losses or impairments may be realized in the future.

 

Rental Property

Held for Sale                                               When assets are identified by management as held for sale, the Company discontinues depreciating the assets and estimates the sales price, net of selling costs, of such assets.  The Company generally considers assets to be held for sale when the transaction has received appropriate corporate authority, and there are no significant contingencies relating to the sale.  If, in management’s opinion, the estimated net sales price, net of selling costs, of the assets which have been identified as held for sale is less than the carrying value of the assets, a valuation allowance is established.

 

18



Table of Contents

 

If circumstances arise that previously were considered unlikely and, as a result, the Company decides not to sell a property previously classified as held for sale, the property is reclassified as held and used.  A property that is reclassified is measured and recorded individually at the lower of (a) its carrying value before the property was classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation (amortization) expense that would have been recognized had the property been continuously classified as held and used, or (b) the fair value at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell.

 

Investments in

Unconsolidated

Joint Ventures                                       The Company accounts for its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures under the equity method of accounting.  The Company applies the equity method by initially recording these investments at cost, as Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures, subsequently adjusted for equity in earnings and cash contributions and distributions.  The outside basis portion of the Company’s joint ventures is amortized over the anticipated useful lives of the underlying ventures’ tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed.  Generally, the Company would discontinue applying the equity method when the investment (and any advances) is reduced to zero and would not provide for additional losses unless the Company has guaranteed obligations of the venture or is otherwise committed to providing further financial support for the investee.  If the venture subsequently generates income, the Company only recognizes its share of such income to the extent it exceeds its share of previously unrecognized losses.

 

If the venture subsequently makes distributions and the Company does not have an implied or actual commitment to support the operations of the venture, including a general partner interest in the investee, the Company will not record a basis less than zero, rather such amounts will be recorded as equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures.

 

On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the Company’s investments in unconsolidated joint ventures may be impaired.  An investment is impaired only if management’s estimate of the value of the investment is less than the carrying value of the investment, and such decline in value is deemed to be other than temporary.  To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss shall be measured as the excess of the carrying value of the investment over the value of the investment.  The Company’s estimates of value for each investment (particularly in real estate joint ventures) are based on a number of assumptions that are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, among others, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, and operating costs.  As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management’s assumptions, the values estimated by management in its impairment analyses may not be realized, and actual losses or impairment may be realized in the future.  See Note 4: Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures.

 

Cash and Cash

Equivalents                                                      All highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents.

 

Deferred

Financing Costs                             Costs incurred in obtaining financing are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related indebtedness. Deferred financing costs are presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the debt liability to which they relate, except deferred financing costs related to the revolving credit facility, which are presented in deferred charges, goodwill and other assets.  In all cases, amortization of such costs is included in interest expense and was $1,175,000 and $1,180,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $2,278,000 and $2,349,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.  If a financing obligation is extinguished early, any unamortized deferred financing costs are written off and included in gains (losses) from extinguishment of debt.  Included in gain (loss) from extinguishment of debt, net for the six months ended June 30, 2017 were unamortized deferred financing costs which were written off of $239,000.  No such unamortized costs were written off for the three months ended June 30, 2017, and the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2016.

 

Deferred

Leasing Costs                                           Costs incurred in connection with commercial leases are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases and included in depreciation and amortization.  Unamortized deferred leasing costs are charged to amortization expense upon early termination of the lease.  Certain employees of the Company are compensated for providing leasing services to the Properties.  The portion of such compensation related to commercial leases, which is capitalized and amortized, and included in deferred charges, goodwill

 

19



Table of Contents

 

and other assets, net, was approximately $946,000 and $870,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $1,988,000 and $1,650,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

Goodwill                                                                     Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net tangible and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is allocated to various reporting units, as applicable.  Each of the Company’s segments consists of a reporting unit. Goodwill is not amortized.  Management performs an annual impairment test for goodwill during the fourth quarter and between annual tests, management evaluates the recoverability of goodwill whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of goodwill may not be fully recoverable.  In its impairment tests of goodwill, management first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value.  If, based on this assessment, management determines that the fair value of the reporting unit is not less than its carrying value, then performing the additional two-step impairment test is unnecessary. If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recognized.

 

Derivative

Instruments                                                       The Company measures derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, at fair value and records them as an asset or liability, depending on the Company’s rights or obligations under the applicable derivative contract.  For derivatives designated and qualifying as fair value hedges, the changes in the fair value of both the derivative instrument and the hedged item are recorded in earnings.  For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portions of the derivative are reported in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) and are subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged item affects earnings.  Changes in fair value of derivative instruments not designated as hedging and ineffective portions of hedges are recognized in earnings in the affected period.

 

Revenue

Recognition                                                    Base rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases.  Unbilled rents receivable represents the cumulative amount by which straight-line rental revenue exceeds rents currently billed in accordance with the lease agreements.

 

Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are initially recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the remaining initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed-rate renewal options for below-market leases.  The capitalized above-market lease values for acquired properties are amortized as a reduction of base rental revenue over the remaining terms of the respective leases, and the capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to base rental revenue over the remaining initial terms plus the terms of any below-market fixed-rate renewal options of the respective leases.

 

Escalations and recoveries from tenants are received from tenants for certain costs as provided in the lease agreements.  These costs generally include real estate taxes, utilities, insurance, common area maintenance and other recoverable costs.  See Note 13: Tenant Leases.

 

Real estate services revenue includes property management, development, construction and leasing commission fees and other services, and payroll and related costs reimbursed from clients.  Fee income derived from the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures (which are capitalized by such ventures) are recognized to the extent attributable to the unaffiliated ownership interests.

 

Parking income includes income from parking spaces leased to tenants and others.

 

Other income includes income from tenants for additional services arranged for by the Company and income from tenants for early lease terminations.

 

Allowance for

Doubtful Accounts                 Management performs a detailed review of amounts due from tenants to determine if an allowance for doubtful accounts is required based on factors affecting the collectability of the accounts receivable balances.  The factors considered by management in determining which individual tenant receivable balances, or aggregate receivable balances, require a collectability allowance include the age of the receivable, the tenant’s payment history, the nature of the charges, any communications regarding the charges and other related information.

 

20



Table of Contents

 

Management’s estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts requires management to exercise significant judgment about the timing, frequency and severity of collection losses, which affects the allowance and net income.

 

Income and

Other Taxes                                                     The General Partner has elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “IRS Code”).  As a REIT, the General Partner generally will not be subject to corporate federal income tax (including alternative minimum tax) on net income that it currently distributes to its shareholders, provided that the General Partner satisfies certain organizational and operational requirements including the requirement to distribute at least 90 percent of its REIT taxable income (determined by excluding any net capital gains) to its shareholders.  If and to the extent the General Partner retains and does not distribute any net capital gains, the General Partner will be required to pay federal, state and local taxes, as applicable, on such net capital gains at the rate applicable to capital gains of a corporation.

 

The Operating Partnership is a partnership, and, as a result, all income and losses of the partnership are allocated to the partners for inclusion in their respective tax returns.  Accordingly, no provision or benefit for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements.

 

The General Partner has elected to treat certain of its corporate subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries (each a “TRS”).  In general, a TRS of the General Partner may perform additional services for tenants of the Company and generally may engage in any real estate or non-real estate related business (except for the operation or management of health care facilities or lodging facilities or the providing to any person, under a franchise, license or otherwise, rights to any brand name under which any lodging facility or health care facility is operated).  A TRS is subject to corporate federal income tax.  The General Partner has conducted business through its TRS entities for certain property management, development, construction and other related services, as well as to hold a joint venture interest in a hotel and other matters.

 

As of June 30, 2017, the Company had a deferred tax asset related to its TRS activity with a balance of approximately $16.6 million which has been fully reserved for through a valuation allowance.  If the General Partner fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates.  The Company is subject to certain state and local taxes.

 

Pursuant to the amended provisions related to uncertain tax provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes, the Company recognized no material adjustments regarding its tax accounting treatment.  The Company expects to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, as income tax expense, which is included in general and administrative expense.

 

In the normal course of business, the Company or one of its subsidiaries is subject to examination by federal, state and local jurisdictions in which it operates, where applicable.  As of June 30, 2017, the tax years that remain subject to examination by the major tax jurisdictions under the statute of limitations are generally from the year 2012 forward.

 

Earnings

Per Share

or Unit                                                                                 The Company presents both basic and diluted earnings per share or unit (“EPS or EPU”).  Basic EPS or EPU excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders or unitholders by the weighted average number of shares or units outstanding for the period.  Diluted EPS or EPU reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock, where such exercise or conversion would result in a lower EPS or EPU from continuing operations amount.  Shares or Units whose issuance is contingent upon the satisfaction of certain conditions shall be considered outstanding and included in the computation of diluted EPS or EPU as follows (i) if all necessary conditions have been satisfied by the end of the period (the events have occurred), those shares or units shall be included as of the beginning of the period in which the conditions were satisfied (or as of the date of the grant, if later) or (ii) if all necessary conditions have not been satisfied by the end of the period, the number of contingently issuable shares or units included in diluted EPS or EPU shall be based on the number of shares or units, if any, that would be issuable if the end of the reporting period were the end of the contingency period (for example, the number of shares or units that would be issuable based on current period earnings or period-end market price) and if the result would be dilutive.  Those contingently issuable shares or units shall be

included in the denominator of diluted EPS or EPU as of the beginning of the period (or as of the date of the grant, if later).

 

Dividends and

Distributions

Payable                                                                           The dividends and distributions payable at June 30, 2017 represents dividends payable to common shareholders (89,913,978 shares) and distributions payable to noncontrolling interest unitholders of the Operating Partnership (10,438,855 common units and 1,230,877 LTIP units), for all such holders of record as of July 6, 2017 with respect to the second quarter 2017.  The second quarter 2017 common stock dividends and unit distributions of $0.20 per common share, common unit and LTIP unit were approved by the General Partner’s Board of Directors on June 9, 2017 and paid on July 14, 2017.

 

The dividends and distributions payable at December 31, 2016 represents dividends payable to common shareholders (89,696,824 shares) and distributions payable to noncontrolling interest unitholders of the Operating Partnership (10,488,105 common units and 657,373 LTIP units) for all such holders of record as of January 5, 2017 with respect to the fourth quarter 2016.  The fourth quarter 2016 common stock dividends and unit distributions of $0.15 per common share, common unit and LTIP unit were approved by the General Partner’s Board of Directors on December 13, 2016 and paid on January 13, 2017.

 

Costs Incurred

For Stock

Issuances                                                                   Costs incurred in connection with the Company’s stock issuances are reflected as a reduction of additional paid-in capital.

 

Stock

Compensation                                        The Company accounts for stock compensation in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation.  These provisions require that the estimated fair value of restricted stock (“Restricted Stock Awards”), performance share units, long-term incentive plan awards and stock options at the grant date be amortized ratably into expense over the appropriate vesting period.  The Company recorded stock compensation expense of $2,046,000 and $1,469,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $3,099,000 and $2,253,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

Other

Comprehensive

Income (Loss)                                           Other comprehensive income (loss) includes items that are recorded in equity, such as effective portions of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges or unrealized holding gains or losses on marketable securities available for sale.

 

Fair Value

Hierarchy                                                                The standard Fair Value Measurements specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based upon whether the inputs to those valuation techniques reflect assumptions other market participants would use based upon market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs).  The following summarizes the fair value hierarchy:

 

·                  Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets that are unadjusted and accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

 

·                  Level 2: Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are inactive, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or financial instruments for which significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals and

 

·                  Level 3: Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

 

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy.  In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.  The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

Impact Of

Recently-Issued

Accounting

Standards                                                                In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”).  ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model requiring a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount reflecting the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.  In adopting ASU 2014-09, companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach.  Additionally, this guidance requires improved disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.  ASU 2014-09 is effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted for periods beginning after December 15, 2016.  While lease contracts with customers, which constitute the majority of the Company’s revenues, are a specific scope exception of ASU 2014-09, certain of the Company’s revenue streams may be impacted by ASU 2014-09.  The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, modifying the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e. lessees and lessors).  The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee.  This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight line basis over the term of the lease, respectively.  A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification.  Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for in the same manner as operating leases today.  The new standard requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases.  The guidance is expected to impact the consolidated financial statements as the Company has certain operating and land lease arrangements for which it is the lessee.  The guidance supersedes previously issued guidance under ASC Topic 840 “Leases.”  The guidance is effective on January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted.  The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments.  ASU 2016-15 addresses eight specific cash flow issues and intends to reduce the diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows.  This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period.  Early adoption is permitted.  The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-15 will have on the Company’s consolidated statement of cash flows.

Consolidation

 

On February 3, 2017, the Operating Partnership issued 42,800 shares of a new class of 3.5 percent Series A Preferred Limited Partnership Units of the Operating Partnership (the “Series A Units”) valued at $42.8 million.  The Series A Units were issued to the Company’s partners in the Plaza VIII & IX Associates L.L.C. joint venture that owns a development site adjacent to the Company’s Harborside property in Jersey City, New Jersey as non-cash consideration for their approximate 37.5 percent interest in the joint venture.  Concurrent with the issuance of the Series A Units, the Company purchased from other partners in the Plaza VIII & IX Associates L.L.C. joint venture their approximate 12.5 percent interest for approximately $14.3 million in cash.  The results of these transactions increased the Company’s interests in the joint venture from 50 percent to 100 percent.  Upon these acquisitions, the Company consolidated Plaza VIII & IX Associates L.L.C., a voting interest entity, substantially all of which is comprised of land for development.  As an acquisition of the additional 50 percent of the land, the Company accounted for the transaction under a cost accumulation model, resulting in total consolidated assets of $60.6 million, substantially all of which is classified as land on the Balance Sheet.

 

On February 28, 2017, the Operating Partnership authorized the issuance of 9,213 shares of a new class of 3.5 percent Series A-1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units of the Operating Partnership (the “Series A-1 Units”).  9,122 Series A-1 Units were issued on February 28, 2017, valued at $9.1 million, to the Company’s partner in a joint venture with the Operating Partnership, which owns Monaco Towers in Jersey City, New Jersey that includes 523 apartment homes in two fifty-story towers with 558 parking spaces and 12,300 square feet of ground floor retail space.  The Series A-1 Units were issued as non-cash consideration for the partner’s approximate 13.8 percent ownership interest in the joint venture to increase the Company’s unconsolidated investment to 29 percent.  In April 2017, an additional 91 Series A-1 Units were issued by the Operating Partnership to purchase from other partners in the same joint venture their approximate 71.2 percent ownership interest for approximately $130.9 million in cash and $171.2 million in assumed debt in transactions which closed in April 2017. The results of these transactions increased the Company’s interests in the joint venture to 100 percent.  Upon these acquisitions, the Company consolidated RoseGarden Monaco Holdings, L.L.C., a voting interest entity.

 

As an acquisition of the remaining interests in the venture which owns the Monaco Towers, the Company accounted for the transaction under a cost accumulation model, resulting in total consolidated net assets of $139.9 million which is allocated, as follows (in thousands):

Rockpoint Transaction

 

On February 27, 2017, the Company, Roseland Residential Trust (“RRT”), the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary through which the Company conducts its multi-family residential real estate operations, Roseland Residential, L.P. (“RRLP”), the operating partnership through which RRT conducts all of its operations, and certain other affiliates of the Company entered into an equity investment agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with Rockpoint Group, L.L.C. and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Rockpoint”).  The Investment Agreement provides for multiple equity investments by Rockpoint in RRLP from time to time for up to an aggregate of $300 million of equity units of limited partnership interests of RRLP (the “Rockpoint Units”).  The initial closing under the Investment Agreement occurred on March 10, 2017 for $150 million of Rockpoint Units.  Additional closings of Rockpoint Units to be issued and sold to Rockpoint pursuant to the Investment Agreement may occur from time to time in increments of not less than $10 million per closing, with the balance of the full $300 million by March 1, 2019.  See Note 14: Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests.

 

RRLP has been identified as a variable interest entity in which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary.  As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company’s consolidated RRLP entity had total assets of $1.8 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively, total mortgages & loan payable of $635.4 million and $480.7 million, respectively, and other liabilities of $79.7 million and $40.1 million, respectively.

On February 15, 2017, the Company sold its 7.5 percent interest in Elmajo Urban Renewal Associates, LLC and Estuary Urban Renewal Unit B, LLC joint ventures that own operating multi-family properties located in Weehawken, New Jersey for a sales price of $5.1 million and realized a gain on the sale of the unconsolidated joint venture of $5.1 million.

 

4.    INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES

 

As of June 30, 2017, the Company had an aggregate investment of approximately $315.1 million in its equity method joint ventures.  The Company formed these ventures with unaffiliated third parties, or acquired interests in them, to develop or manage primarily office and multi-family rental properties, or to acquire land in anticipation of possible development of office and multi-family rental properties.  As of June 30, 2017, the unconsolidated joint ventures owned: five office properties aggregating approximately 1.4 million square feet, eight multi-family properties totaling 3,275 apartments, and two retail properties aggregating approximately 81,700 square feet, a 350-room hotel, a development project for up to approximately 59 apartments; and interests and/or rights to developable land parcels able to accommodate up to 4,348 apartments.  The Company’s unconsolidated interests range from 12.5 percent to 85 percent subject to specified priority allocations in certain of the joint ventures.

 

The amounts reflected in the following tables (except for the Company’s share of equity in earnings) are based on the historical financial information of the individual joint ventures.  The Company does not record losses of the joint ventures in excess of its investment balances unless the Company is liable for the obligations of the joint venture or is otherwise committed to provide financial support to the joint venture.  The outside basis portion of the Company’s investments in joint ventures is amortized over the anticipated useful lives of the underlying ventures’ tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed.  Unless otherwise noted below, the debt of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures generally is non-recourse to the Company, except for customary exceptions pertaining to such matters as intentional misuse of funds, environmental conditions, and material misrepresentations.

 

The Company has agreed to guarantee repayment of a portion of the debt of its unconsolidated joint ventures.  As of June 30, 2017, such debt had a total facility amount of $206 million of which the Company agreed to guarantee up to $24.8 million.  As of June 30, 2017, the outstanding balance of such debt totaled $189.5 million of which $22.7 million was guaranteed by the Company.  The Company performed management, leasing, development and other services for the properties owned by the unconsolidated joint ventures and recognized $0.7 million and $3.7 million for such services in the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.  The Company had $0.7 million and $0.7 million in accounts receivable due from its unconsolidated joint ventures as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.

 

Included in the Company’s investments in unconsolidated joint ventures as of June 30, 2017 are four unconsolidated development joint ventures, which are VIEs for which the Company is not the primary beneficiary.  These joint ventures are primarily established to develop real estate property for long-term investment and were deemed VIEs primarily based on the fact that the equity investment at risk was not sufficient to permit the entities to finance their activities without additional financial support.  The initial equity contributed to these entities was not sufficient to fully finance the real estate construction as development costs are funded by the partners throughout the construction period.  The Company determined that it was not the primary beneficiary of these VIEs based on the fact that the Company has shared control of these entities along with the entity’s partners and therefore does not have controlling financial interests in these VIEs.  The Company’s aggregate investment in these VIEs was approximately $187.9 million as of June 30, 2017.  The Company’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with these VIEs is estimated to be approximately $212.7 million, which includes the Company’s current investment and estimated future funding commitments/guarantees of approximately $24.8 million.  The Company has not provided financial support to these VIEs that it was not previously contractually required to provide.  In general, future costs of development not financed through third parties will be funded with capital contributions from the Company and its outside partners in accordance with their respective ownership percentages.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

 

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements.  To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy.  As of June 30, 2017, the Company had outstanding interest rate swaps with a combined notional value of $675 million that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk.  During the six months ending June 30, 2017, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate debt.

 

28



Table of Contents

 

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and is 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. During the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, the company recorded ineffectiveness gain(loss) of $11,000 and $(99,000) and during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, the Company recorded ineffectiveness gain(loss) of $(32,000) and $(1,012,000), respectively, which is included in interest and other investment income (loss) in the consolidated statements of operations, attributable to a floor mismatch in the underlying indices of the derivatives and the hedged interest payments made on its variable-rate debt.  Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt. During the next 12 months, the Company estimates that an additional $1.2 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.

 

Undesignated Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

 

Interest rate caps not designated as hedges are not speculative and are used to manage the Company’s exposure to interest rate movements but do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements. Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated in hedging relationships are recorded directly in earnings.  The Company recognized expenses of zero and $1,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and zero and $2,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, which is included in interest and other investment income (loss) in the consolidated statements of operations.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

 

The Company has agreements with each of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where the Company could be declared in default on its derivative obligations if repayment of the underlying indebtedness is accelerated by the lender due to the Company’s default on the indebtedness.  As of June 30, 2017, the fair value of derivatives in a net liability position, which includes accrued interest but excludes any adjustment for nonperformance risk, related to these agreements was $0.4 million.  As of June 30, 2017, the Company has not posted any collateral related to these agreements.  If the Company had breached any of these provisions at June 30, 2017, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at their termination value of $0.4 million.

The terms of the 2017 Term Loan include: (1) a three-year term ending in January 2020, with two one-year extension options; (2) multiple draws of the term loan commitments may be made within 12 months of the effective date of the 2017 Credit Agreement up to an aggregate principal amount of $325 million (subject to increase as discussed below), with no requirement to be drawn in full; provided, that, if the Company does not borrow at least 50 percent of the initial term commitment from the term lenders (i.e. 50 percent of $325 million) on or before July 25, 2017, the amount of unused term loan commitments shall be reduced on such date so that, after giving effect to such reduction, the amount of unused term loan commitments is not greater than the outstanding term loans on such date; (3) an interest rate based on the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings from Moody’s or S&P, currently the LIBOR plus 140 basis points, or, at the Operating Partnership’s option if it no longer maintains a debt rating from Moody’s or S&P or such debt ratings fall below Baa3 and BBB-, based on a defined leverage ratio; and (4) a term commitment fee on any unused term loan commitment during the first 12 months after the effective date of the 2017 Credit Agreement at a rate of 0.25 percent per annum on the sum of the average daily unused portion of the aggregate term loan commitments.

 

On March 22, 2017, the Company drew the full $325 million available under the 2017 Term Loan. On March 29, 2017, the Company executed interest rate swap arrangements to fix LIBOR with an aggregate average rate of 1.6473% for the swaps and a current aggregate fixed rate of 3.0473% on borrowings under the 2017 Term Loan.

 

On up to four occasions at any time after the effective date of the 2017 Credit Agreement, the Company may elect to request (1) an increase to the existing revolving credit commitments (any such increase, the “New Revolving Credit Commitments”) and/or (2) the establishment of one or more new term loan commitments (the “New Term Commitments”, together with the 2017 Credit Commitments, the “Incremental Commitments”), by up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $350 million for all Incremental Commitments.  The Company may also request that the sublimit for letters of credit available under the 2017 Credit Facility be increased to $100 million (without arranging any New Revolving Credit Commitments).  No lender or letter of credit issued has any obligation to accept any Incremental Commitment or any increase to the letter of credit subfacility.  There is no premium or penalty associated with full or partial prepayment of borrowings under the 2017 Credit Agreement.

 

The 2017 Credit Agreement, which applies to both the 2017 Credit Facility and 2017 Term Loan, includes certain restrictions and covenants which limit, among other things the incurrence of additional indebtedness, the incurrence of liens and the disposition of real estate properties (to the extent that: (i) such property dispositions cause the Company to default on any of the financial ratios of the 2017 Credit Agreement (described below), or (ii) the property dispositions are completed while the Company is under an event of default under the 2017 Credit Agreement, unless, under certain circumstances, such disposition is being carried out to cure such default), and which require compliance with financial ratios relating to the maximum leverage ratio (60 percent), the maximum amount of secured indebtedness (40 percent), the minimum amount of fixed charge coverage (1.5 times), the maximum amount of unsecured indebtedness (60 percent), the minimum amount of unencumbered property interest coverage (2.0 times) and certain

investment limitations (generally 15 percent of total capitalization).  If an event of default has occurred and is continuing, the entire outstanding balance under the 2017 Credit Agreement may (or, in the case of any bankruptcy event of default, shall) become immediately due and payable, and the Company will not make any excess distributions except to enable the General Partner to continue to qualify as a REIT under the IRS Code.

 

Before it amended and restated its unsecured revolving credit facility in January 2017, the Company had a $600 million unsecured revolving credit facility with a group of 17 lenders that was scheduled to mature in July 2017.  The interest rate on outstanding borrowings (not electing the Company’s competitive bid feature) and the facility fee on the current borrowing capacity payable quarterly in arrears was based upon the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings at the time, as follows:

In January 2016, the Company obtained a $350 million unsecured term loan (“2016 Term Loan”), which matures in January 2019 with two one-year extension options.  The interest rate for the term loan is currently 140 basis points over LIBOR, subject to adjustment on a sliding scale based on the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings, or, at the Company’s option, a defined leverage ratio.  The Company entered into interest rate swap arrangements to fix LIBOR for the duration of the term loan. Including costs, the current all-in fixed rate is 3.13 percent.  The proceeds from the loan were used primarily to repay outstanding borrowings on the Company’s then existing unsecured revolving credit facility and to repay $200 million senior unsecured notes that matured on January 15, 2016.

 

The interest rate on the 2016 Term Loan is based upon the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings, as follows:

The terms of the 2016 Term Loan include certain restrictions and covenants which limit, among other things the incurrence of additional indebtedness, the incurrence of liens and the disposition of real estate properties (to the extent that: (i) such property dispositions cause the Company to default on any of the financial ratios of the term loan described below, or (ii) the property dispositions are completed while the Company is under an event of default under the term loan, unless, under certain circumstances, such disposition is being carried out to cure such default), and which require compliance with financial ratios relating to the maximum leverage ratio (60 percent), the maximum amount of secured indebtedness (40 percent), the minimum amount of fixed charge coverage (1.5 times), the maximum amount of unsecured indebtedness (60 percent), the minimum amount of unencumbered property interest coverage (2.0 times) and certain investment limitations (generally 15 percent of total capitalization).  If an event of default has occurred and is continuing, the Company will not make any excess distributions except to enable the General Partner to continue to qualify as a REIT under the IRS Code.

10.   EMPLOYEE BENEFIT 401(k) PLANS

 

Employees of the General Partner, who meet certain minimum age and service requirements, are eligible to participate in the Mack-Cali Realty Corporation 401(k) Savings/Retirement Plan (the “401(k) Plan”).  Eligible employees may elect to defer from one percent up to 60 percent of their annual compensation on a pre-tax basis to the 401(k) Plan, subject to certain limitations imposed by federal law.  The amounts contributed by employees are immediately vested and non-forfeitable.  The Company may make discretionary matching or profit sharing contributions to the 401(k) Plan on behalf of eligible participants in any plan year.  Participants are always 100 percent vested in their pre-tax contributions and will begin vesting in any matching or profit sharing contributions made on their behalf after two years of service with the Company at a rate of 20 percent per year, becoming 100 percent vested after a total of six years of service with the Company.  All contributions are allocated as a percentage of compensation of the eligible participants for the Plan year.  The assets of the 401(k) Plan are held in trust and a separate account is established for each participant.  A participant may receive a distribution of his or her vested account balance in the 401(k) Plan in a single sum or in installment payments upon his or her termination of service with the Company.  Total expense recognized by the Company for the 401(k) Plan for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $233,000 and 254,000, respectively, and $575,000 and $492,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

11.   DISCLOSURE OF FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

 

The following disclosure of estimated fair value was determined by management using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies.  However, considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value.  Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of the assets and liabilities at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.  The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

 

Cash equivalents, receivables, notes receivables, accounts payable, and accrued expenses and other liabilities are carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their fair values as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

 

The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt, consisting of senior unsecured notes, unsecured term loans, an unsecured revolving credit facility and mortgages, loans payable and other obligations aggregated approximately $2,934,517,000 and $2,308,488,000 as compared to the book value of approximately $2,950,219,000 and $2,340,009,000 as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.  The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was categorized as a level 3 basis (as provided by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures).  The fair value was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis valuation based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans with similar terms and maturities.  The fair value of the mortgage debt and the unsecured notes was determined by discounting the future contractual interest and principal payments by a market rate.  Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivative financial instruments fall within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivative financial instruments utilize level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself 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 derivative financial instruments. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivative financial instruments valuations in their entirety are classified in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

 

34



Table of Contents

 

The fair value measurements used in the evaluation of the Company’s rental properties are considered to be Level 3 valuations within the fair value hierarchy, as there are significant unobservable inputs.  Examples of inputs that were utilized in the fair value calculations include estimated holding periods, discount rates, market capitalization rates, expected lease rental rates, and third party broker information.  Valuations of rental property identified as held for sale are based on sale prices, net of estimated selling costs, of such property, based on signed sale agreements.

 

Disclosure about fair value of assets and liabilities is based on pertinent information available to management as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.  Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since June 30, 2017 and current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein.

In 2015, the Company commenced development of a two-phase multi-family development of the CitySquare project in Worcester, Massachusetts.  The first phase, with 237 units, is under construction with anticipated initial deliveries in the fourth quarter 2017.  The second phase, with 128 units, started construction in the third quarter 2016 with anticipated initial deliveries in the third quarter 2018.  Total development costs for both phases are estimated to be $92 million with development costs of $60 million incurred through June 30, 2017.  The Company has a construction loan with a maximum borrowing amount of $58 million (with $16.4 million outstanding as of June 30, 2017).  The Company does not expect to fund additional costs for the completion of the project as future development costs will be funded by using the loan financings.

 

In 2015, the Company entered into a 90-percent owned joint venture with XS Port Imperial Hotel, LLC to form XS Hotel Urban Renewal Associates LLC, which is developing a 372-key hotel in Weehawken, New Jersey.  The project is expected to be ready for occupancy by second quarter 2018.  The construction of the project is estimated to cost $139.4 million, with development costs of $74.8 million incurred by the venture through June 30, 2017.  The venture has a $94 million construction loan (with $24.9 million outstanding as of June 30, 2017).  The Company expects to fund $2.9 million of additional costs for the completion of the project with the remaining future costs to be funded by using the loan financing.

 

In 2016, the Company commenced the repurposing of a former office property site in Morris Plains, New Jersey into a 197-unit multi-family development project.  The project, which is estimated to cost $58.7 million of which development costs of $35.1 million have been incurred through June 30, 2017, is expected to be ready for occupancy by the fourth quarter of 2017.  The remaining project costs are expected to be funded primarily from a $42 million construction loan (with $14 million outstanding as of June 30, 2017).

 

In 2016, the Company started construction of a 296-unit multi-family project in East Boston, Massachusetts.  The project is expected to be ready for occupancy by second quarter 2018 and is estimated to cost $111.4 million of which development costs of $64.9 million have been incurred through June 30, 2017.  The remaining project costs are expected to be funded primarily from a $73 million construction loan (with $16.5 million outstanding as of June 30, 2017).

 

The Company is developing a 295-unit multi-family project in Weehawken, New Jersey, which began construction in first quarter 2016.  The project, which is expected to be ready for occupancy by first quarter 2018, is estimated to cost $124 million (of which development costs of $63.2 million have been incurred through June 30, 2017).  The project costs are expected to be funded primarily from a $78 million construction loan (with $30.4 million outstanding as of June 30, 2017).  The Company expects to fund $46 million for the development of the project, of which the Company has funded $32.8 million as of June 30, 2017.

 

The Company is developing a 310-unit multi-family project in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania, which began construction in third quarter 2016 with anticipated initial occupancy in second quarter 2019.  The project is estimated to cost $89.4 million (of which development costs of $22.3 million have been incurred through June 30, 2017).  The project costs are expected to be funded primarily through borrowings under the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility.

 

OTHER

 

Through February 2016, the Company could not dispose of or distribute certain of its properties which were originally contributed by certain unrelated common unitholders of the Operating Partnership, without the express written consent of such common unitholders, as applicable, except in a manner which did not result in recognition of any built-in-gain (which may result in an income tax liability) or which reimbursed the appropriate specific common unitholders for the tax consequences of the recognition of such built-in-gains (collectively, the “Property Lock-Ups”).  The aforementioned restrictions did not apply in the event that the Company sold all of its

Table of Contents

 

properties or in connection with a sale transaction which the General Partner’s Board of Directors determined was reasonably necessary to satisfy a material monetary default on any unsecured debt, judgment or liability of the Company or to cure any material monetary default on any mortgage secured by a property.  The Property Lock-Ups expired in February 2016.  Upon the expiration of the Property Lock-Ups, the Company is generally required to use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any sale, transfer or other disposition of the subject properties from resulting in the recognition of built-in gain to the specific common unitholders, which include members of the Mack Group (which includes William L. Mack, Chairman of the General Partner’s Board of Directors; David S. Mack, director; and Earle I. Mack, a former director), the Robert Martin Group (which includes Robert F. Weinberg, a former director and current member of the General Partner’s Advisory Board), and the Cali Group (which includes John R. Cali, a former director and current member of the General Partner’s Advisory Board).  As of June 30, 2017, 102 of the Company’s properties, with an aggregate carrying value of approximately $1.2 billion, have lapsed restrictions and are subject to these conditions.

 

13.  TENANT LEASES

 

The Properties are leased to tenants under operating leases with various expiration dates through 2035.  Substantially all of the commercial leases provide for annual base rents plus recoveries and escalation charges based upon the tenant’s proportionate share of and/or increases in real estate taxes and certain operating costs, as defined, and the pass-through of charges for electrical usage.

 

Future minimum rentals to be received under non-cancelable commercial operating leases at June 30, 2017 are as follows (dollars in thousands):

14.   REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS

 

The Company evaluates the terms of the partnership units issued in accordance with the FASB’s Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity guidance.  Units which embody an unconditional obligation requiring the Company to redeem the units for cash after a specified or determinable date (or dates) or upon the occurrence of an event that is not solely within the control of the issuer are determined to be contingently redeemable under this guidance and are included as Redeemable noncontrolling interests and classified within the mezzanine section between Total liabilities and Stockholders’ equity on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.  Convertible units for which the Company has the option to settle redemption amounts in cash or Common Stock are included in the caption Noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries within the equity section on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.

 

Rockpoint Transaction

 

On February 27, 2017, the Company, Roseland Residential Trust (“RRT”), the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary through which the Company conducts its multi-family residential real estate operations, Roseland Residential, L.P. (“RRLP”), the operating partnership through which RRT conducts all of its operations, and certain other affiliates of the Company entered into an equity investment agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with Rockpoint Group, L.L.C. and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Rockpoint”).  The Investment Agreement provides for multiple equity investments by Rockpoint in RRLP from time to time for up to an aggregate of $300 million of equity units of limited partnership interests of RRLP (the “Rockpoint Units”).  The initial closing under the Investment Agreement occurred on March 10, 2017 for $150 million of Rockpoint Units and the parties agreed that the Company’s contributed equity value, (“RRT Contributed Equity Value”), was $1.23 billion at closing.  Additional closings of Rockpoint Units to be issued and sold to Rockpoint pursuant to the Investment Agreement may occur from time to time in increments of not less than $10 million per closing, with the balance of the full $300 million by March 1, 2019.

 

The Company has a participation right, where prior to March 1, 2022 and following either the full investment of $300 million by Rockpoint or in certain other limited circumstances, the Company may contribute up to $200 million to obtain equity units on substantially the same terms and conditions as the Rockpoint Units to be issued and sold to Rockpoint.

Table of Contents

 

Under the terms of the transaction, the cash flow from operations of RRLP will be distributable to RRT and Rockpoint as follows:

 

first, to provide a 6% annual return to Rockpoint (and to the Company after it contributes to RRT to obtain equity units, as described above) on its invested capital (“Preferred Base Return”);

 

second, to provide a 6% annual return on the equity value of the properties contributed by it to the partnership (“RRT Base Return”) with 95% of the RRT Base Return to RRT and 5% of the RRT Base Return to Rockpoint; and

 

third, pro rata between Rockpoint (and the Company upon its contribution to obtain equity units) and RRT based on total respective invested capital by Rockpoint and RRT Initial Capital Contribution.

 

Based on Rockpoint’s $150 million invested capital and RRT’s Initial Capital Contribution, at March 31, 2017 this pro rata distribution would be approximately 10.9% to Rockpoint and 89.1% to RRT.

 

RRLP’s cash flow from capital events will generally be distributable to RRT and Rockpoint as follows:

 

first, to Rockpoint (and the Company after it contributes to RRT to obtain equity units) to the extent there is any unpaid, accrued Preferred Base Return;

 

second, as a return of capital to Rockpoint (and the Company after it contributes to RRT to obtain equity units);

 

third, to RRT to the extent there is any unpaid, accrued RRT Base Return (with Rockpoint entitled to 5% of the amounts distributable to RRT);

 

fourth, as a return of capital to RRT based on the equity value of the properties contributed by it to the partnership (with Rockpoint entitled to 5% of the amounts distributable to RRT);

 

fifth, pro rata between Rockpoint (and the Company after it contributes to RRT to obtain equity units) and RRT based on total respective invested capital and contributed equity value until Rockpoint has achieved an 11% internal rate of return; and

 

sixth, to Rockpoint (and to the Company after it contributes to RRT to obtain equity units) based on 50% of its pro rata share described in “fifth” above and the balance to RRT.

 

In general, RRLP may not sell its properties in a taxable transaction, although it may engage in tax-deferred like-kind exchanges of properties or it may proceed in another manner designed to avoid the recognition of gains for tax purposes.

 

Beginning March 1, 2022, except in certain limited  circumstances as defined in the agreement, either RRT or Rockpoint may cause RRT to redeem (a “Put/Call Event”) all, but not less than all, of Rockpoint’s interest in the Rockpoint Units based on a net asset value of RRLP to be determined by a third party valuation and generally based on the capital event waterfall described above.  On a Put/Call Event, other than the sale of RRLP, Rockpoint can either demand payment in cash or may elect to convert all, but not less than all, of its investment to common equity in RRLP.  As such, the Rockpoint Units contain a substantive redemption feature that is outside of the Company’s control and accordingly, pursuant to ASC 480-1—S99-3A, the Rockpoint Units are classified in mezzanine equity measured based on the estimated future redemption value as of June 30, 2017.

 

Preferred Units

 

On February 3, 2017, the Operating Partnership issued 42,800 shares of a new class of 3.5 percent Series A Preferred Limited Partnership Units of the Operating Partnership (the “Series A Units”).  The Series A Units were issued to the Company’s partners in the Plaza VIII & IX Associates L.L.C. joint venture that owns a development site adjacent to the Company’s Harborside property in Jersey City, New Jersey as non-cash consideration for their approximate 37.5 percent interest in the joint venture.

 

Each Series A Unit has a stated value of $1,000, pays dividends quarterly at an annual rate of 3.5 percent (subject to increase under certain circumstances), is convertible into 28.15 common units of limited partnership interests of the Operating Partnership beginning generally five years from the date of issuance, or an aggregate of up to 1,204,820 common units.  The conversion rate was based on a value of $35.52 per common unit.  The Series A Units have a liquidation and dividend preference senior to the common units and include customary anti-dilution protections for stock splits and similar events.  The Series A Units are redeemable for cash at their stated value beginning five years from the date of issuance at the option of the holder.

 

On February 28, 2017, the Operating Partnership authorized the issuance of 9,213 shares of a new class of 3.5 percent Series A-1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units of the Operating Partnership (the “Series A-1 Units”).  9,122 Series A-1 Units were issued on February 28, 2017 and an additional 91 Series A-1 Units were issued in April 2017 pursuant to acquiring additional interests in a joint venture that owns Monaco Towers in Jersey City, New Jersey.  The Series A-1 Units were issued as non-cash consideration for the partner’s approximate 13.8 percent ownership interest in the joint venture.

 

Each Series A-1 Unit has a stated value of $1,000 (the “Stated Value”), pays dividends quarterly at an annual rate equal to the greater of (x) 3.5 percent, or (y) the then-effective annual dividend yield on the General Partner’s common stock, and is convertible into 27.936 common units of limited partnership interests of the Operating Partnership beginning generally five years from the date of

issuance, or an aggregate of up to 257,375 Common Units.  The conversion rate was based on a value of $35.80 per common unit.  The Series A-1 Units have a liquidation and dividend preference senior to the Common Units and include customary anti-dilution protections for stock splits and similar events.  The Series A-1 Units are redeemable for cash at their stated value beginning five years from the date of issuance at the option of the holder.  The Series A-1 Units are pari passu with the 42,800 3.5% Series A Units issued on February 3, 2017.

15.   MACK-CALI REALTY CORPORATION STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY AND MACK-CALI REALTY, L.P.’S PARTNERS’ CAPITAL

 

To maintain its qualification as a REIT, not more than 50 percent in value of the outstanding shares of the General Partner may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals at any time during the last half of any taxable year of the General Partner, other than its initial taxable year (defined to include certain entities), applying certain constructive ownership rules.  To help ensure that the General Partner will not fail this test, the General Partner’s Charter provides, among other things, certain restrictions on the transfer of common stock to prevent further concentration of stock ownership.  Moreover, to evidence compliance with these requirements, the General Partner must maintain records that disclose the actual ownership of its outstanding common stock and demands written statements each year from the holders of record of designated percentages of its common stock requesting the disclosure of the beneficial owners of such common stock.

 

Partners’ Capital in the accompanying consolidated financial statements relates to (a) General Partners’ capital consisting of common units in the Operating Partnership held by the General Partner, and (b) Limited Partners’ capital consisting of common units and LTIP units held by the limited partners.  See Note 16: Noncontrolling Interests in Subsidiaries.

 

Any transactions resulting in the issuance of additional common and preferred stock of the General Partner result in a corresponding issuance by the Operating Partnership of an equivalent amount of common and preferred units to the General Partner.

 

SHARE/UNIT REPURCHASE PROGRAM

 

In September 2012, the Board of Directors of the General Partner renewed and authorized an increase to the General Partner’s repurchase program (“Repurchase Program”).  The General Partner has authorization to repurchase up to $150 million of its outstanding common stock under the renewed Repurchase Program, which it may repurchase from time to time in open market transactions at prevailing prices or through privately negotiated transactions.  The General Partner has purchased and retired 394,625 shares of its outstanding common stock for an aggregate cost of approximately $11 million (all of which occurred in the year ended December 31, 2012), with a remaining authorization under the Repurchase Program of $139 million.  Concurrent with these purchases, the General Partner sold to the Operating Partnership common units for approximately $11 million.

 

DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT AND STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

 

The General Partner has a Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (the “DRIP”) which commenced in March 1999 under which approximately 5.5 million shares of the General Partner’s common stock have been reserved for future issuance.  The DRIP provides for automatic reinvestment of all or a portion of a participant’s dividends from the General Partner’s shares of common stock.  The DRIP also permits participants to make optional cash investments up to $5,000 a month without restriction and, if the Company waives this limit, for additional amounts subject to certain restrictions and other conditions set forth in the DRIP prospectus filed as part of the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC for the approximately 5.5 million shares of the General Partner’s common stock reserved for issuance under the DRIP.

STOCK OPTION PLANS

 

In May 2013, the General Partner established the 2013 Incentive Stock Plan (the “2013 Plan”) under which a total of 4,600,000 shares have been reserved for issuance.

 

On June 5, 2015, in connection with employment agreements entered into with each of Messrs. Rudin and DeMarco (together, the “Executive Employment Agreements”), the Company granted options to purchase a total of 800,000 shares of the General Partner’s common stock, exercisable for a period of ten years with an exercise price equal to the closing price of the General Partner’s common stock on the grant date of $17.31 per share, with 400,000 of such options vesting in three equal annual installments commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date (“Time Vesting Options”), and 400,000 of such options vesting if the General Partner’s common stock trades at or above $25.00 per share for 30 consecutive trading days while the executive is employed (“Price Vesting Options”), or on or before June 30, 2019, subject to certain conditions.  The Price Vesting Options vested on July 5, 2016 on account of the price vesting condition being achieved.

RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS

 

The Company has issued stock awards (“Restricted Stock Awards”) to officers, certain other employees and non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the General Partner, which allow the holders to each receive a certain amount of shares of the General Partner’s common stock generally over a one to seven-year vesting period, of which 96,769 unvested shares were legally outstanding at June 30, 2017.  Vesting of the Restricted Stock Awards issued to executive officers and certain other employees is based on time and service.

 

On June 5, 2015, in connection with the Executive Employment Agreements, the Company granted a total of 37,550.54 Restricted Stock Awards, which were valued in accordance with ASC 718 — Stock Compensation, at their fair value.  These awards vest equally over a three-year period on each annual anniversary date of the grant date.

 

All currently outstanding and unvested Restricted Stock Awards provided to the officers, certain other employees, and members of the Board of Directors of the General Partner were issued under the 2013 Plan.

PERFORMANCE SHARE UNITS

 

On June 5, 2015, in connection with the Executive Employment Agreements, the Company granted a total of 112,651.64 performance share units (“PSUs”) which will vest from 0 to 150 percent of the number of PSUs granted based on the Company’s total shareholder return relative to a peer group of equity office REITs over a three-year performance period starting from the grant date, each PSU evidencing the right to receive a share of the General Partner’s common stock upon vesting.  The PSUs are also entitled to the payment of dividend equivalents in respect of vested PSUs in the form of additional PSUs.  The PSUs were valued in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, at their fair value on the grant date, utilizing a Monte-Carlo simulation to estimate the probability of the vesting conditions being satisfied.

 

The Company has reserved shares of common stock under the 2013 Plan for issuance upon vesting of the PSUs in accordance with their terms and conditions.

 

As of June 30, 2017, the Company had $0.5 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested PSUs granted under the Company’s stock compensation plans.  That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.9 years.

 

LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN AWARDS

 

On March 8, 2016, the Company granted Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) awards to senior management of the Company, including the General Partner’s executive officers (the “2016 LTIP Awards”).  All of the 2016 LTIP Awards were in the form of units in the Operating Partnership (“LTIP Units”) and constitute awards under the 2013 Plan. For Messrs. Rudin, DeMarco and Tycher, approximately 25 percent of the target 2016 LTIP Award was in the form of a time-based award that will vest after three years on March 8, 2019 (the “2016 TBV LTIP Units”), and the remaining approximately 75 percent of the target 2016 LTIP Award was in the form of a performance-based award under a new Outperformance Plan (the “2016 OPP”) adopted by the General Partner’s Board of Directors consisting of a multi-year, performance-based equity compensation plan and related forms of award agreement (the “2016 PBV LTIP Units”).  For all other executive officers, approximately 40 percent of the target 2016 LTIP Award was in the form of 2016 TBV LTIP Units and the remaining approximately 60 percent of the target 2016 LTIP Award was in the form of 2016 PBV LTIP Units.

 

The 2016 OPP is designed to align the interests of senior management to relative and absolute performance of the Company over a three-year performance period from March 8, 2016 through March 7, 2019.  Participants in the 2016 OPP will only earn the full awards if, over the three-year performance period, the Company achieves a 50 percent absolute total stockholder return (“TSR”) and if the Company is in the 75th percentile of performance versus the NAREIT Office Index.

 

On April 4, 2017, the Company granted LTIP awards to senior management of the Company, including the General Partner’s executive officers (the “2017 LTIP Awards”). All of the 2017 LTIP Awards were in the form of LTIP Units and constitute awards under the 2013 Plan.  For Messrs. DeMarco, Tycher and Rudin, approximately twenty-five percent (25%) of the 2017 LTIP Award was in the form of a time-based award that will vest after three years on April 4, 2020 (the “2017 TBV LTIP Units”), and the remaining approximately seventy-five percent (75%) of the 2017 LTIP Award was in the form of a performance-based award under the Company’s Outperformance Plan (the “2017 OPP”) adopted by the General Partner’s Board of Directors, consisting of a multi-year, performance-based equity compensation plan and related forms of award agreement (the “2017 PBV LTIP Units”).  For all other executive officers, approximately forty percent (40%) of the 2017 LTIP Award was in the form of 2017 TBV LTIP Units and the remaining approximately sixty percent (60%) of the 2017 LTIP Award was in the form of 2017 PBV LTIP Units.

 

The 2017 OPP is designed to align the interests of senior management to relative and absolute performance of the Company over a three-year performance period from April 4, 2017 through April 3, 2020. Participants in the 2017 OPP will only earn the full awards if, over the three-year performance period, the Company achieves a thirty-six percent (36%) absolute TSR and if the Company is in the 75th percentile of performance as compared to the NAREIT office index.

 

LTIP Units will remain subject to forfeiture depending on the extent that the 2016 LTIP Awards and 2017 LTIP Awards vest. The number of LTIP Units to be issued initially to recipients of the 2016 PBV LTIP Awards and 2017 PBV LTIP Awards is the maximum number of LTIP Units that may be earned under the awards. The number of LTIP Units that actually vest for each award recipient will be determined at the end of the performance measurement period. TSR for the Company and for the Index over the three-year measurement period and other circumstances will determine how many LTIP Units vest for each recipient; if they are fewer than the number issued initially, the balance will be forfeited as of the performance measurement date.

 

Prior to vesting, recipients of LTIP Units will be entitled to receive per unit distributions equal to one-tenth (10 percent) of the regular quarterly distributions payable on a common unit of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (a “common unit”), but will not be entitled to receive any special distributions. Distributions with respect to the other nine-tenths (90 percent) of regular quarterly distributions payable on a common unit will accrue but shall only become payable upon vesting of the LTIP Unit. After vesting of the 2016 TBV LTIP Units and 2017 TBV LTIP Units or the end of the measurement period for the 2016 PBV LTIP Units

and 2017 PBV LTIP Units, the number of LTIP Units, both vested and unvested, will be entitled to receive distributions in an amount per unit equal to distributions, both regular and special, payable on a common unit.

 

As of June 30, 2017, the Company granted a total of 496,781 2016 PBV LTIP Units, 155,773 2016 TBV LTIP Units, 481,436 2017 PBV LTIP Units and 96,887 2017 TBV LTIP Units.  The LTIP Units were valued in accordance with ASC 718 — Stock Compensation, at their fair value. The Company has reserved shares of common stock under the 2013 Plan for issuance upon vesting and conversion of the LTIP Units in accordance with their terms and conditions.

 

As of June 30, 2017, the Company had $13.7 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested LTIP awards granted under the Company’s stock compensation plans.  That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.9 years.

 

DEFERRED STOCK COMPENSATION PLAN FOR DIRECTORS

 

The Amended and Restated Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors, which commenced January 1, 1999, allows non-employee directors of the Company to elect to defer up to 100 percent of their annual retainer fee into deferred stock units.  The deferred stock units are convertible into an equal number of shares of common stock upon the directors’ termination of service from the Board of Directors or a change in control of the Company, as defined in the plan.  Deferred stock units are credited to each director quarterly using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the applicable dividend record date for the respective quarter.  Each participating director’s account is also credited for an equivalent amount of deferred stock units based on the dividend rate for each quarter.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, 8,821 and 7,859 deferred stock units were earned, respectively.  As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, there were 201,001 and 193,711 deferred stock units outstanding, respectively.

 

EARNINGS PER SHARE/UNIT

 

Basic EPS or EPU excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders or unitholders by the weighted average number of shares or units outstanding for the period.  Diluted EPS or EPU reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

 

The following information presents the Company’s results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share: (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)

16.   NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS IN SUBSIDIARIES

 

NONCONTROLLING INTEREST IN OPERATING PARTNERSHIP (applicable only to General Partner)

 

Noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries in the accompanying consolidated financial statements relate to (i) common units and LTIP units in the Operating Partnership, held by parties other than the General Partner (“Limited Partners”), and (ii) interests in consolidated joint ventures for the portion of such ventures not owned by the Company.

 

The following table reflects the activity of noncontrolling interests for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively (dollars in thousands):

Pursuant to ASC 810, Consolidation, on the accounting and reporting for noncontrolling interests and changes in ownership interests of a subsidiary, changes in a parent’s ownership interest (and transactions with noncontrolling interest unitholders in the subsidiary) while the parent retains its controlling interest in its subsidiary should be accounted for as equity transactions.  The carrying value of the noncontrolling interest shall be adjusted to reflect the change in its ownership interest in the subsidiary, with the offset to equity attributable to the parent.  Accordingly, as a result of equity transactions which caused changes in ownership percentages between Mack-Cali Realty Corporation stockholders’ equity and noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company has decreased noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership and increased additional paid-in capital in Mack-Cali Realty Corporation stockholders’ equity by approximately $2.9 million as of June 30, 2017.

 

Common Units

 

Certain individuals and entities own common units in the Operating Partnership.  A common unit and a share of Common Stock of the General Partner have substantially the same economic characteristics in as much as they effectively share equally in the net income or loss of the Operating Partnership.  Common unitholders have the right to redeem their common units, subject to certain restrictions.  The redemption is required to be satisfied in shares of Common Stock, cash, or a combination thereof, calculated as follows:  one share of the General Partner’s Common Stock, or cash equal to the fair market value of a share of the General Partner’s Common Stock at the time of redemption, for each common unit.  The General Partner, in its sole discretion, determines the form of redemption of common units (i.e., whether a common unitholder receives Common Stock, cash, or any combination thereof).  If the General Partner elects to satisfy the redemption with shares of Common Stock as opposed to cash, it is obligated to issue shares of its Common Stock to the redeeming unitholder.  Regardless of the rights described above, the common unitholders may not put their units for cash to the General Partner or the Operating Partnership under any circumstances.  When a unitholder redeems a common unit, noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership is reduced and Mack-Cali Realty Corporation Stockholders’ equity is increased.

 

LTIP Units

 

On March 8, 2016, the Company granted 2016 LTIP Awards to senior management of the Company, including the General Partner’s executive officers. On April 4, 2017, the Company granted 2017 LTIP Awards to senior management of the Company, including the General Partner’s executive officers.  All of the 2016 LTIP Awards and 2017 LTIP Awards will be in the form of units in the

Operating Partnership. See Note 15: Mack-Cali Realty Corporation Stockholders’ Equity and Mack-Cali Realty, L.P.’s Partners’ Capital — Long-Term Incentive Plan Awards.

 

LTIP Units are designed to qualify as “profits interests” in the Operating Partnership for federal income tax purposes.  As a general matter, the profits interests characteristics of the LTIP Units mean that initially they will not be economically equivalent in value to a common unit.  If and when events specified by applicable tax regulations occur, LTIP Units can over time increase in value up to the point where they are equivalent to common units on a one-for-one basis.  After LTIP Units are fully vested, and to the extent the special tax rules applicable to profits interests have allowed them to become equivalent in value to common units, LTIP Units may be converted on a one-for-one basis into common units. Common units in turn have a one-for-one relationship in value with shares of the General Partner’s common stock, and are redeemable on a one-for-one basis for cash or, at the election of the Company, shares of the General Partner’s common stock.

 

Unit Transactions

Noncontrolling Interest Ownership in Operating Partnership

 

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the noncontrolling interest common unitholders owned 10.4 percent and 10.5 percent of the Operating Partnership, respectively.

 

NONCONTROLLING INTEREST IN CONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES (applicable to General Partner and Operating Partnership)

 

The Company consolidates certain joint ventures in which it has ownership interests.  Various entities and/or individuals hold noncontrolling interests in these ventures.

 

In June 2017, the Company acquired the remaining noncontrolling interest in 150 Main Street, LLC, a consolidated joint venture, for cash consideration of $2 million and the issuance of 99,412 Common Units valued at $2.8 million.

 

PARTICIPATION RIGHTS

 

The Company’s interests in certain real estate projects (three properties and a future development) each provide for the initial distributions of net cash flow solely to the Company, and thereafter, other parties have participation rights in 50 percent of the excess net cash flow remaining after the distribution to the Company of the aggregate amount equal to the sum of: (a) the Company’s capital contributions, plus (b) an IRR of 10 percent per annum.

 

17.   SEGMENT REPORTING

 

The Company operates in three business segments: (i) commercial and other real estate, (ii) multi-family real estate, and (iii) multi-family services.  The Company provides leasing, property management, acquisition, development, construction and tenant-related services for its commercial and other real estate and multi-family real estate portfolio.  The Company’s multi-family services business also provides similar services for third parties.  The Company no longer considers construction services as a reportable segment as it phased out this line of business in 2014.  The Company had no revenues from foreign countries recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.  The Company had no long lived assets in foreign locations as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.  The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies, excluding depreciation and amortization.

 

The Company evaluates performance based upon net operating income from the combined properties in each of its real estate segments (commercial and other, and multi-family) and from its multi-family services segment.

ITEM 2.                        MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation and Mack-Cali Realty, L.P. and the notes thereto (collectively, the “Financial Statements”).  Certain defined terms used herein have the meaning ascribed to them in the Financial Statements.

 

Executive Overview

 

Mack-Cali Realty Corporation together with its subsidiaries, (collectively, the “General Partner”), is one of the largest real estate investment trusts (REITs) in the United States.  Mack-Cali Realty, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”) has been involved in all aspects of commercial real estate development, management and ownership for over 60 years and the General Partner has been a publicly traded REIT since 1994.

 

The Operating Partnership conducts the business of providing leasing, management, acquisition, development, construction and tenant-related services for its General Partner.  The Operating Partnership, through its operating divisions and subsidiaries, including the Mack-Cali property-owning partnerships and limited liability companies, is the entity through which all of the General Partner’s operations are conducted.  Unless stated otherwise or the context requires, the “Company” refers to the General Partner and its subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries.

 

As of June 30, 2017, the Company owns or has interests in 214 properties (collectively, the “Properties”), consisting of 86 office and 110 flex properties, totaling approximately 22.8 million square feet, leased to approximately 1,100 commercial tenants and 18 multi-family rental properties containing 5,825 residential units.  The Properties are located primarily in the Northeast, some with adjacent, Company-controlled developable land sites able to accommodate up to 5.5 million square feet of additional commercial space and 11,037 apartment units.

 

The Company’s historical strategy has been to focus its operations, acquisition and development of office properties in high-barrier-to-entry markets and sub-markets where it believes it is, or can become, a significant and preferred owner and operator.  In September 2015, the Company announced a three-year strategic initiative to transform into a more concentrated owner of New Jersey Hudson River waterfront and transit-oriented office properties and a regional owner of luxury multi-family residential properties.  As part of this plan, over the past year, the Company has sold multiple properties, primarily commercial office, which it believes do not meet its long-term goals.

 

As an owner of real estate, almost all of the Company’s earnings and cash flow are derived from rental revenue received pursuant to leased space at the Properties.  Key factors that affect the Company’s business and financial results include the following:

 

·                  the general economic climate;

·                  the occupancy rates of the Properties;

·                  rental rates on new or renewed leases;

·                  tenant improvement and leasing costs incurred to obtain and retain tenants;

·                  the extent of early lease terminations;

·                  the value of our office properties and the cash flow from the sale of such properties;

·                  operating expenses;

·                  anticipated acquisition and development costs for office and multi-family rental properties and the revenues and earnings from these properties;

·                  cost of capital; and

·                  the extent of acquisitions, development and sales of real estate, including the execution of the Company’s current strategic initiative.

 

Any negative effects of the above key factors could potentially cause a deterioration in the Company’s revenue and/or earnings.  Such negative effects could include: (1) failure to renew or execute new leases as current leases expire; (2) failure to renew or execute new leases with rental terms at or above the terms of in-place leases; and (3) tenant defaults.

 

A failure to renew or execute new leases as current leases expire or to execute new leases with rental terms at or above the terms of in-place leases may be affected by several factors such as: (1) the local economic climate, which may be adversely impacted by business

layoffs or downsizing, industry slowdowns, changing demographics and other factors; and (2) local real estate conditions, such as oversupply of the Company’s product types or competition within the market.

 

Of the Company’s core office markets, most have recently shown signs of improvement while others have stabilized.  The percentage leased in the Company’s consolidated portfolio of stabilized core operating commercial properties aggregating 17.6 million, 17.6 million and 17.2 million square feet at June 30, 2017, March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively, was 89.9 percent leased at June 30, 2017 as compared to 90.4 percent leased at March 31, 2017 and 89.8 percent leased at June 30, 2016 (after adjusting for properties identified as non-core at the time).  Percentage leased includes all leases in effect as of the period end date, some of which have commencement dates in the future and leases that expire at the period end date.  Leases that expired at June 30, 2017, March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016 aggregate 256,367, 111,385 and 104,901 square feet, respectively, or 1.2, 0.5 and 0.5 percentage of the net rentable square footage, respectively.  Rental rates (including escalations) on the Company’s commercial space that was renewed (based on first rents payable) during the three months ended June 30, 2017 (on 526,924 square feet of renewals) increased an average of 1.2 percent compared to rates that were in effect under the prior leases, as compared to a 20.9 percent increase during the three months ended June 30, 2016 (on 457,782 square feet of renewals).  Estimated lease costs for the renewed leases during the three months ended June 30, 2017 averaged $1.35 per square foot per year for a weighted average lease term of 5.5 years, and estimated lease costs for the renewed leases during the three months ended June 30, 2016 averaged $1.76 per square foot per year for a weighted average lease term of 4.3 years.  The Company has achieved positive leasing results in its core markets recently.  It believes that commercial vacancy rates may decrease and commercial rental rates may increase in some of its markets in 2017 and possibly beyond.  As of June 30, 2017, commercial leases which comprise approximately 7.8 and 14.6 percent of the Company’s annualized base rent are scheduled to expire during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2018, respectively.  With the positive leasing results the Company has achieved in many of its markets recently, the Company believes that rental rates on new leases will generally be, on average, not lower than rates currently being paid.  Although the Company has recently achieved positive leasing activity, primarily in its core markets, if the recent leasing results do not prove to be sustaining during 2017 and beyond, the Company’s rental rates it may achieve on new leases may be lower than the rates currently being paid, resulting in the potential for less revenue from the same space.

 

The Company believes that there is a potential for Moody’s or Standard & Poor’s to lower their current investment grade ratings on the Company’s senior unsecured debt to sub-investment grade.  Amongst other things, any such downgrade by both Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s will increase the current interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the Company’s current $600 million unsecured revolving credit facility (which was amended in January 2017) from LIBOR plus 120 basis points to LIBOR plus 155 basis points and the annual credit facility fee it pays will increase from 25 to 30 basis points.  Additionally, any such downgrade would increase the current interest rate on each of the Company’s $350 million unsecured term loan and $325 million unsecured term loan from LIBOR plus 140 basis points to LIBOR plus 185 points.  In the event of a downgrade, the Company could elect to utilize the leverage grid pricing available under the unsecured revolving credit facility and both unsecured term loans.  This would result in an interest rate of LIBOR plus 130 basis points for the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility and 25 basis points for the facility fee and LIBOR plus 155 basis points for both unsecured term loans at the Company’s current total leverage ratio.  In addition, a downgrade in its ratings to sub-investment grade would result in higher interest rates on senior unsecured debt that the Company may issue in the future as compared to issuing such debt with investment grade ratings.

 

The remaining portion of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should help the reader understand our:

 

·                  recent transactions;

·                  critical accounting policies and estimates;

·                  results from operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, and

·                  liquidity and capital resources.

Consolidation

 

On February 3, 2017, the Operating Partnership issued 42,800 shares of a new class of 3.5 percent Series A Preferred Limited Partnership Units of the Operating Partnership (the “Series A Units”), valued at $42.8 million.  The Series A Units were issued to the Company’s partners in the Plaza VIII & IX Associates L.L.C. joint venture that owns a development site adjacent to the Company’s Harborside property in Jersey City, New Jersey as non-cash consideration for their approximate 37.5 percent interest in the joint venture.  Concurrent with the issuance of the Series A Units, the Company purchased from other partners in the Plaza VIII & IX Associates L.L.C. joint venture their approximate 12.5 percent interest for approximately $14.3 million in cash.  The results of these transactions increased the Company’s interests in the joint venture from 50 percent to 100 percent.  Upon these acquisitions, the Company consolidated Plaza VIII & IX Associates L.L.C., a voting interest entity, substantially all of which is comprised of land for development.  As an acquisition of the additional 50 percent of the land the Company accounted for the transaction under a cost accumulation model, resulting in total consolidated assets of $60.6 million, substantially all of which is classified as land on the Balance Sheet.

 

On February 28, 2017, the Operating Partnership authorized the issuance of 9,213 shares of a new class of 3.5 percent Series A-1 Preferred Limited Partnership Units of the Operating Partnership (the “Series A-1 Units”).  9,122 Series A-1 Units were issued on February 28, 2017, valued at $9.1 million, to the Company’s partner in a joint venture with the Operating Partnership, which owns Monaco Towers in Jersey City, New Jersey that includes 523 apartment homes in two fifty-story towers with 558 parking spaces and 12,300 square feet of ground floor retail space.  The Series A-1 Units were issued as non-cash consideration for the partner’s approximate 13.8 percent ownership interest in the joint venture.  In April 2017, an additional 91 Series A-1 Units were issued by the Operating Partnership to purchase from other partners in the same joint venture their approximate 71.2 percent ownership interest for approximately $130.9 million in cash and $171.2 million in assumed debt in transactions which closed in April 2017.  The results of these transactions increased the Company’s interests in the joint venture to 100 percent.  Upon these acquisitions, the Company consolidated RoseGarden Monaco Holdings, L.L.C., a voting interest entity.  As an acquisition of the remaining interests in the venture which owns the Monaco Towers, the Company accounted for the transaction under a cost accumulation model, resulting in total consolidated net assets of $139.9 million.

(a)  The Company recorded a valuation allowance of $7.7 million on this property during the year ended December 31, 2016.

(b)  $15.1 million of the net sales proceeds from this sale were held by a qualified intermediary.

 

Rental Property Held for Sale, Net

 

The Company identified as held for sale 50 office and office/flex properties totaling approximately four million square feet as of June 30, 2017.  The properties are located in East Brunswick, Totowa, Moorestown, Woodcliff Lake, Paramus, Rochelle Park and Burlington, New Jersey.  The total estimated sales proceeds from the sales are expected to be approximately $372 million.  The Company determined that the carrying value of nine of the office properties was not expected to be recovered from estimated net sales proceeds and accordingly recognized an unrealized loss allowance of $45.7 million at June 30, 2017.

 

Rockpoint Transaction

 

On February 27, 2017, the Company, Roseland Residential Trust (“RRT”), the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary through which the Company conducts its multi-family residential real estate operations, Roseland Residential, L.P. (“RRLP”), the operating partnership through which RRT conducts all of its operations, and certain other affiliates of the Company entered into an equity investment agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) with Rockpoint Group, L.L.C. and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Rockpoint”).  The Investment Agreement provides for multiple equity investments by Rockpoint in RRLP from time to time for up to an aggregate of $300 million of equity units of limited partnership interests of RRLP (the “Rockpoint Units”).  The initial closing under the Investment Agreement occurred on March 10, 2017 for $150 million of Rockpoint Units, inclusive of a $30 million deposit

paid by Rockpoint to RRLP on signing the Investment Agreement.  Additional closings of Rockpoint Units to be issued and sold to Rockpoint pursuant to the Investment Agreement may occur from time to time in increments of not less than $10 million per closing, with the balance of the full $300 million by March 1, 2019.

 

RRLP has been identified as a variable interest entity in which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary.  As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company’s consolidated RRLP entity had total assets of $1.8 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively, total mortgages & loan payable of $635.4 million and $480.7 million, respectively, and other liabilities of $79.7 million and $40.1 million, respectively.

 

The Company shall have a participation right, where prior to March 1, 2022 and following either the full investment of $300 million by Rockpoint or in certain other limited circumstances, the Company may purchase up to $200 million of equity units on substantially the same terms and conditions as the Rockpoint Units to be issued and sold to Rockpoint.

 

RRT serves as the General Partner of the operating partnership and will receive contributed equity value at closing of $1.23 billion.

 

Under the terms of the transaction, the cash flow from operations of RRLP will be distributable to RRT and Rockpoint as follows:

 

first, to provide a 6% annual return to Rockpoint (and to the Company upon acquisition of equity units by the Company, as described above) on its invested capital (“Preferred Base Return”);

 

second, to provide a 6% annual return to RRT on the equity value of the properties contributed by it to the partnership (“RRT Base Return”) with 95% of the RRT Base Return to RRT and 5% of the RRT Base Return to Rockpoint; and

 

third, pro rata between Rockpoint (and the Company upon acquisition of equity units) and RRT based on total respective invested capital and contributed equity value (approximately 17% to Rockpoint and 83% to RRT upon full investment of Rockpoint’s $300 million commitment and the Company’s $200 million participation right).

 

RRLP’s cash flow from capital events will generally be distributable to RRT and Rockpoint as follows:

 

first, to Rockpoint (and the Company upon acquisition of equity units) to the extent there is any unpaid, accrued Preferred Base Return;

 

second, as a return of capital to Rockpoint (and the Company upon acquisition of equity units);

 

third, to RRT to the extent there is any unpaid, accrued RRT Base Return (with Rockpoint entitled to an additional amount equal to 5% of the amounts distributable to RRT);

 

fourth, as a return of capital to RRT based on the equity value of the properties contributed by it to the partnership (with Rockpoint entitled to an additional amount equal to 5% of the amounts distributable to RRT);

 

fifth, pro rata between Rockpoint (and the Company upon acquisition of equity units) and RRT based on total respective invested capital and contributed equity value (approximately 17% to Rockpoint and 83% to RRT upon full investment of Rockpoint’s $300 million commitment and the Company’s $200 million participation right) until Rockpoint has achieved an 11% internal rate of return; and

 

sixth, to Rockpoint (and to the Company upon acquisition of equity units) based on 50% of its pro rata share described in “fifth” above and the balance to RRT (approximately 9% to Rockpoint and 91% to RRT upon full investment of Rockpoint’s $300 million commitment and the Company’s $200 million participation right).

 

In general, RRLP may not sell its properties in a taxable transaction, although it may engage in tax-deferred like-kind exchanges of properties or it may proceed in another manner designed to avoid the recognition of gains for tax purposes.

 

Except in the case of a sale of RRLP or an initial public offering or spin-off of RRT (“Liquidity Events”), Rockpoint’s interest in the Rockpoint Units may not be redeemed or repurchased by RRT for a period of approximately five years from the initial closing under the Investment Agreement (“Lockout Period”).  If there is a Liquidity Event during the Lockout Period, RRT may acquire Rockpoint’s Rockpoint Units for a purchase price generally equal to the greater of (i) the fair market value of such Rockpoint Units as determined by the process set forth below; or (ii) an amount that provides Rockpoint with 1.5 times Rockpoint’s return of capital taking into account prior distributions to Rockpoint (an “Early Repurchase”).  Beginning on March 1, 2022, either RRT or Rockpoint may cause an acquisition (a “Put/Call Event”) of all, but not less than all, of Rockpoint’s interest in the Rockpoint Units at the fair market value per unit based on a net asset value (“NAV”) of RRLP to be determined by a third party valuation to be completed within ninety (90) calendar days of March 1, 2022 and every year thereafter and generally based on the capital event waterfall described above.  Any acquisition of Rockpoint’s interest in the Rockpoint Units pursuant to a Put/Call Event is generally required to be structured as a purchase of the common equity in the applicable Rockpoint entities that hold direct or indirect interests in the Rockpoint Units. Subject to certain exceptions, Rockpoint also shall have a right of first offer and a participation right with respect to other common equity interests of RRLP or any subsidiary of RRLP that may be offered for sale by RRLP or its subsidiaries from time to time.  On a Put/Call Event, other than the sale of RRLP, Rockpoint may elect to convert all, but not less than all, of its investment to common equity in RRLP.

The foregoing and following terms and conditions of the investment will be implemented by the parties pursuant to an amended and restated partnership agreement of RRLP (the “Partnership Agreement”) and shareholders agreement of RRT (the “Shareholders Agreement”) to be entered into at the initial closing of the Rockpoint Units to be issued and sold to Rockpoint. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement and Shareholders Agreement, and concurrent with the issuance and sale of the Rockpoint Units to be issued and sold at the initial closing, RRT has agreed to increase the size of its board of trustees from five to six persons, with five trustees being designated by the Company and one trustee being designated by Rockpoint.

 

In addition, RRT and RRLP shall be required to obtain Rockpoint’s consent with respect to:

 

·                  Debt financings in excess of a 65% loan-to-value ratio;

·                  Corporate level financings that are pari-passu or senior to the Rockpoint Units;

·                  New investment opportunities to the extent the opportunity requires an equity capitalization in excess of 10% of RRLP’s NAV;

·                  New investment opportunities located in a Metropolitan Statistical Area where RRLP owns no property as of the previous quarter;

·                  Declaration of bankruptcy of RRT;

·                  Transactions between RRT and the Company, subject to certain limited exceptions;

·                  Any equity granted or equity incentive plan adopted by RRLP or any of its subsidiaries; and

·                  Certain matters relating to the Discretionary Demand Promissory Note between the Operating Partnership and RRLP (other than ordinary course borrowings or repayments thereunder).

 

The Partnership Agreement provides that any of the following will constitute an event of default (each, an “Event of Default”) with respect to the equity securities: (i) failure by RRLP to pay Rockpoint any financial obligations due to it, subject to certain cure rights, (ii) any of the General Partner, Operating Partnership, RRT or RRLP, or their respective affiliates that are party to the Investment Agreement, failing to perform or observe any material covenant or agreement contained in any of the transaction documents and such failure continues for 20 business days after notice, or (iii) the violation of certain tax related covenants.  If an Event of Default occurs, (i) at any time and is continuing, subject to a cure period, Rockpoint’s preferred return in respect of operating cash flows shall increase from six percent (6%) to eighteen percent (18%) per annum; and (ii) during the Lockout Period, if it remains uncured for 120 days after notice, Rockpoint may cause an Early Repurchase of Rockpoint’s interest in the Rockpoint Units by RRT.  In addition, if any nonpayment of a financial obligation remains unpaid for 120 days following notice from Rockpoint, and remains uncured following the 10th anniversary of the effective date of the Partnership Agreement, Rockpoint shall have the right to designate a majority of the members of the board of trustees of RRT, which is the General Partner of RRLP.

 

Also on the initial closing date, the Operating Partnership and RRLP executed a Discretionary Demand Promissory Note, whereby the Operating Partnership may provide periodic cash advances to RRLP.  The Discretionary Demand Promissory Note provides for an interest rate equal to the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate plus fifty (50) basis points above the applicable interest rate under the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility.  The maximum aggregate principal amount of advances at any one time outstanding under the Note will be limited to $25,000,000.

 

RRT and RRLP also entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with Rockpoint pursuant to which RRT and RRLP have agreed to register the Rockpoint Units or securities issuable in exchange of Rockpoint Units under certain circumstances in the future, in the event RRT or RRLP becomes a publicly traded company.

 

The Operating Partnership and RRLP also entered into a Shared Services Agreement (the “Shared Services Agreement”), which will provide for the performance of back office, administrative and other operational services by the Operating Partnership for the benefit of RRLP.  The Shared Services Agreement provides for a fixed fee of $1,000,000/year to be paid by RRLP to the Operating Partnership, with a three percent (3%) increase year to year.

 

In connection with the transaction, the Company also entered into a Recourse Agreement (the “Recourse Agreement”) with Rockpoint.  The Recourse Agreement provides that, in the event of distributions or transfers by RRLP of cash flow or property in breach of the Partnership Agreement, or failure to make required distributions or payments (including complying with any put by Rockpoint) in each case, which remain uncured, the Company will have direct liability for losses of Rockpoint resulting therefrom.

 

Rockpoint will indemnify the Company (or its affiliates) pursuant to an indemnity agreement (the “Indemnity Agreement”) for liability (pursuant to the provisions of said agreement) resulting from the likely requirement for RRLP to acquire the equity interest of the entities holding Rockpoint’s interest in RRLP upon any Rockpoint exit, including for losses relating to certain REIT matters.

Unconsolidated Joint Venture Activity

 

On January 31, 2017, the Company sold its interest in KPG-P 100 IMW JV, LLC, Keystone-Penn and Keystone-Tristate joint ventures that own operating properties, located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for an aggregate sales price of $9.7 million and realized a gain on the sale of the unconsolidated joint venture of $7.4 million.

 

On February 15, 2017, the Company sold its 7.5 percent interest in Elmajo Urban Renewal Associates, LLC and Estuary Urban Renewal Unit B, LLC joint ventures that own operating multi-family properties located in Weehawken, New Jersey for a sales price of $5.1 million and realized a gain on the sale of the unconsolidated joint venture of $5.1 million.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Company, its majority-owned and/or controlled subsidiaries, which consist principally of the Operating Partnership and variable interest entities for which the Company has determined itself to be the primary beneficiary, if any.  See Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies — Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures — to the Financial Statements, for the Company’s treatment of unconsolidated joint venture interests.  Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation, provides guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights (“variable interest entities” or “VIEs”) and the determination of which business enterprise, if any, should consolidate the VIEs. Generally, the consideration of whether an entity is a VIE applies when either: (1) the equity investors (if any) lack (i) the ability to make decisions about the entity’s activities through voting or similar rights, (ii) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or (iii) the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity; (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support; or (3) the equity investors have voting rights that are not proportionate to their economic interests and substantially all of the activities of the entity involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor with a disproportionately small voting interest.  The Company consolidates VIEs in which it is considered to be the primary beneficiary.  The primary beneficiary is defined by the entity having both of the following characteristics: (1) the power to direct the activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the variable interest entity’s performance: and (2) the obligation to absorb losses and right to receive the returns from the VIE that would be significant to the VIE.

 

On January 1, 2016, the Company adopted accounting guidance under ASC 810, Consolidation, modifying the analysis it must perform to determine whether it should consolidate certain types of legal entities.  The guidance does not amend the existing disclosure requirements for variable interest entities or voting interest model entities.  The guidance, however, modified the requirements to qualify under the voting interest model.  Under the revised guidance, the Operating Partnership will be a variable interest entity of the parent company, Mack-Cali Realty Corporation.  As the Operating Partnership is already consolidated in the balance sheets of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation, the identification of this entity as a variable interest entity has no impact on the consolidated financial statements of Mack-Cali Realty Corporation.  There were no other legal entities qualifying under the scope of the revised guidance that were consolidated as a result of the adoption.

 

The Financial Statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Financial Statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.  Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts in order to conform with current period presentation.  These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s historical experience that are believed to be reasonable at the time.  However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment.  The Company’s critical accounting policies are those which require assumptions to be made about matters that are highly uncertain.  Different estimates could have a material effect on the Company’s financial results.  Judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of these policies and estimates may result in materially different amounts being reported under different conditions and circumstances.

 

Rental Property:

 

Rental properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization.  Costs directly related to the acquisition, development and construction of rental properties are capitalized.  Acquisition-related costs were expensed as incurred through December 31, 2016.  The Company early adopted the recently issued FASB guidance Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-01 on January 1, 2017 which revises the definition of a business and is expected to result in more transactions to be accounted for as asset acquisitions and significantly limit transactions that would be accounted for as business combinations. Where an acquisition has been determined to be an asset acquisition, acquisition-related costs are capitalized.  Capitalized development and construction costs include pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, development and construction costs, interest, property

 

53



Table of Contents

 

taxes, insurance, salaries and other project costs incurred during the period of development.  Interest capitalized by the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $9.1 million and $9.3 million, respectively.  Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred; major replacements and betterments, which improve or extend the life of the asset, are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.  Fully-depreciated assets are removed from the accounts.

 

The Company considers a construction project as substantially completed and held available for occupancy upon the substantial completion of tenant improvements, but no later than one year from cessation of major construction activity (as distinguished from activities such as routine maintenance and cleanup).  If portions of a rental project are substantially completed and occupied by tenants, or held available for occupancy, and other portions have not yet reached that stage, the substantially completed portions are accounted for as a separate project.  The Company allocates costs incurred between the portions under construction and the portions substantially completed and held available for occupancy, primarily based on a percentage of the relative square footage of each portion, and capitalizes only those costs associated with the portion under construction.

 

Properties are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.  The estimated useful lives are as follows:

 

Leasehold interests

 

Remaining lease term

 

Buildings and improvements

 

5 to 40 years

 

Tenant improvements

 

The shorter of the term of the related lease or useful life

 

Furniture, fixtures and equipment

 

5 to 10 years

 

 

Upon acquisition of rental property, the Company estimates the fair value of acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and improvements, and identified intangible assets and liabilities assumed, generally consisting of the fair value of (i) above and below market leases, (ii) in-place leases and (iii) tenant relationships.  The Company allocates the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values. The Company records goodwill or a gain on bargain purchase (if any) if the net assets acquired/liabilities assumed differ from the purchase consideration of a transaction. In estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired, the Company considers information obtained about each property as a result of its due diligence and marketing and leasing activities, and utilizes various valuation methods, such as estimated cash flow projections utilizing appropriate discount and capitalization rates, estimates of replacement costs net of depreciation, and available market information.  The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it were vacant.

 

Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are initially recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the remaining initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases.  The capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of base rental revenue over the remaining terms of the respective leases, and the capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to base rental revenue over the remaining initial terms plus the terms of any below-market fixed rate renewal options of the respective leases.

 

Other intangible assets acquired include amounts for in-place lease values and tenant relationship values, which are based on management’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and the Company’s overall relationship with the respective tenant.  Factors to be considered by management in its analysis of in-place lease values include an estimate of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases.  In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods, depending on local market conditions.  In estimating costs to execute similar leases, management considers leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses.  Characteristics considered by management in valuing tenant relationships include the nature and extent of the Company’s existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant’s credit quality and expectations of lease renewals.  The value of in-place leases are amortized to expense over the remaining initial terms of the respective leases.  The value of tenant relationship intangibles are amortized to expense over the anticipated life of the relationships.

 

On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the Company’s rental properties held for use may be impaired.  In addition to identifying any specific circumstances which may affect a property or properties, management considers other criteria for determining which properties may require assessment for potential impairment.  The criteria considered by management include reviewing low leased percentages, significant near-term lease expirations, current and historical operating and/or cash flow losses, near-term mortgage debt maturities and/or other factors, including those that might impact the Company’s intent and ability to hold the property.  A property’s value is impaired only if management’s estimate of the aggregate future cash flows

 

54



Table of Contents

 

(undiscounted and without interest charges) to be generated by the property is less than the carrying value of the property.  To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss shall be measured as the excess of the carrying value of the property over the fair value of the property.  The Company’s estimates of aggregate future cash flows expected to be generated by each property are based on a number of assumptions.  These assumptions are generally based on management’s experience in its local real estate markets and the effects of current market conditions.  The assumptions are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, among others, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, and costs to operate each property.  As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management’s assumptions, the future cash flows estimated by management in its impairment analyses may not be achieved, and actual losses or impairments may be realized in the future.

 

Rental Property Held for Sale:

 

When assets are identified by management as held for sale, the Company discontinues depreciating the assets and estimates the sales price, net of selling costs, of such assets.  The Company generally considers assets to be held for sale when the transaction has received appropriate corporate authority and there are no significant contingencies relating to the sale.  If, in management’s opinion, the estimated net sales price, net of selling costs, of the assets which have been identified as held for sale is less than the carrying value of the assets, a valuation allowance is established.

 

If circumstances arise that previously were considered unlikely and, as a result, the Company decides not to sell a property previously classified as held for sale, the property is reclassified as held and used.  A property that is reclassified is measured and recorded individually at the lower of (a) its carrying value before the property was classified as held for sale, adjusted for any depreciation (amortization) expense that would have been recognized had the property been continuously classified as held and used, or (b) the fair value at the date of the subsequent decision not to sell.

 

Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures:

 

The Company accounts for its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures under the equity method of accounting.  The Company applies the equity method by initially recording these investments at cost, as Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures, subsequently adjusted for equity in earnings and cash contributions and distributions.  The outside basis portion of the Company’s joint ventures is amortized over the anticipated useful lives of the underlying ventures’ tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed.  Generally, the Company would discontinue applying the equity method when the investment (and any advances) is reduced to zero and would not provide for additional losses unless the Company has guaranteed obligations of the venture or is otherwise committed to providing further financial support for the investee.    If the venture subsequently generates income, the Company only recognizes its share of such income to the extent it exceeds its share of previously unrecognized losses.

 

If the venture subsequently makes distributions and the Company does not have an implied or actual commitment to support the operations of the venture, including a general partner interest in the investee, the Company will not record a basis less than zero, rather such amounts will be recorded as equity in earnings of unconsolidated joint ventures.

 

On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the Company’s investments in unconsolidated joint ventures may be impaired.  An investment is impaired only if management’s estimate of the value of the investment is less than the carrying value of the investment, and such decline in value is deemed to be other than temporary.  To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss shall be measured as the excess of the carrying value of the investment over the value of the investment.  The Company’s estimates of value for each investment (particularly in real estate joint ventures) are based on a number of assumptions that are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, among others, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, and operating costs.  As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter management’s assumptions, the values estimated by management in its impairment analyses may not be realized, and actual losses or impairment may be realized in the future.  See Note 4: Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures — to the Financial Statements.

 

Revenue Recognition:

 

Base rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases.  Unbilled rents receivable represents the cumulative amount by which straight-line rental revenue exceeds rents currently billed in accordance with the lease agreements.

 

Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are initially recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the remaining initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed-rate renewal options for below-market leases.  The capitalized above-market lease values for acquired properties are amortized as a reduction of base rental revenue over the remaining terms of the respective leases, and the capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to base rental revenue over the remaining initial terms plus the terms of any below-market fixed-rate renewal options of the respective leases.

 

55



Table of Contents

 

Escalations and recoveries from tenants are received from tenants for certain costs as provided in the lease agreements.  These costs generally include real estate taxes, utilities, insurance, common area maintenance and other recoverable costs.

 

Real estate services revenue includes property management, development, construction and leasing commission fees and other services, and payroll and related costs reimbursed from clients.  Fee income derived from the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures (which are capitalized by such ventures) are recognized to the extent attributable to the unaffiliated ownership interests.

 

Parking income includes income from parking spaces leased to tenants and others.

 

Other income includes income from tenants for additional services arranged for by the Company and income from tenants for early lease terminations.

 

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts:

 

Management performs a detailed review of amounts due from tenants to determine if an allowance for doubtful accounts is required based on factors affecting the collectability of the accounts receivable balances. The factors considered by management in determining which individual tenant receivable balances, or aggregate receivable balances, require a collectability allowance include the age of the receivable, the tenant’s payment history, the nature of the charges, any communications regarding the charges and other related information. Management’s estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts requires management to exercise significant judgment about the timing, frequency and severity of collection losses, which affects the allowance and net income.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased $18.9 million, or 21.8 percent, for 2017 over 2016.  This increase was due primarily to depreciation of $24.6 million in 2017 on the Acquired Properties, and an increase of $5.0 million for 2017 as compared to 2016 on the Same-Store Properties due to accelerated depreciation on buildings planning to be removed from service, partially offset by lower depreciation of $10.7 million in 2017 as compared to 2016 for properties sold or removed from service.

 

Interest expense. Interest expense decreased $2.7 million, or 5.6 percent, for 2017 as compared to 2016.  This decrease was primarily the result of lower average interest rates achieved on refinanced debt in late 2016, partially offset by increased debt balances in 2017.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Liquidity

 

Overview:

 

Historically, rental revenue has been the Company’s principal source of funds to pay operating expenses, debt service, capital expenditures and dividends, excluding non-recurring capital expenditures.  To the extent that the Company’s cash flow from operating activities is insufficient to finance its non-recurring capital expenditures such as property acquisitions, development and construction costs and other capital expenditures, the Company has and expects to continue to finance such activities through borrowings under its unsecured revolving credit facility, other debt and equity financings, proceeds from the sale of properties and joint venture capital.

 

The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements generally through its working capital, which may include proceeds from the sales of office properties, net cash provided by operating activities and from its unsecured revolving credit facility.  The Company frequently examines potential property acquisitions and development projects and, at any given time, one or more of such acquisitions or development projects may be under consideration.  Accordingly, the ability to fund property acquisitions and development projects is a major part of the Company’s financing requirements.  The Company expects to meet its financing requirements through funds generated from operating activities, to the extent available, proceeds from property sales, joint venture capital, long-term and short-term borrowings (including draws on the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility) and the issuance of additional debt and/or equity securities.

Repositioning of the Company’s Portfolio:

 

As described earlier relative to its current strategic initiative, the Company’s management has been reviewing its portfolio and identifying opportunities to divest of non-core office properties that no longer meet its long-term strategy, have reached their potential, are less efficient to operate, or when market conditions are favorable to be sold at attractive prices.  The Company anticipates redeploying the proceeds from non-core rental property sales in the near-term to acquire office properties, enhance amenities and infrastructure at existing office properties, develop, redevelop and acquire multi-family rental properties, as well as reposition certain office properties into multi-family residential and/or mixed use properties, in its core Northeast sub-markets.

 

Construction Projects:

 

In 2015, the Company commenced development of a two-phase multi-family development of the CitySquare project in Worcester, Massachusetts.  The first phase, with 237 units, is under construction with anticipated initial deliveries in the fourth quarter 2017.  The second phase, with 128 units, started construction in the third quarter 2016 with anticipated initial deliveries in the third quarter 2018.  Total development costs for both phases are estimated to be $92 million with development costs of $60 million incurred through June 30, 2017.  The Company has a construction loan with a maximum borrowing amount of $58 million (with $16.4 million outstanding as of June 30, 2017).  The Company does not expect to fund additional costs for the completion of the project as future development costs will be funded by using the loan financings.

 

In 2015, the Company entered into a 90-percent owned joint venture with XS Port Imperial Hotel, LLC to form XS Hotel Urban Renewal Associates LLC, which is developing a 372-key hotel in Weehawken, New Jersey.  The project is expected to be ready for occupancy by second quarter 2018.  The construction of the project is estimated to cost $139.4 million, with development costs of $74.8 million incurred by the venture through June 30, 2017.  The venture has a $94 million construction loan (with $24.9 million outstanding as of June 30, 2017).  The Company expects to fund $2.9 million of additional costs for the completion of the project with the remaining future costs to be funded by using the loan financing.

 

In 2016, the Company commenced the repurposing of a former office property site in Morris Plains, New Jersey into a 197-unit multi-family development project.  The project, which is estimated to cost $58.7 million of which development costs of $35.1  million have been incurred through June 30, 2017, is expected to be ready for occupancy by the fourth quarter of 2017.  The project costs are expected to be funded primarily from a $42 million construction loan (with $14 million outstanding as of June 30, 2017).

 

In 2016, the Company started construction of a 296-unit multi-family project in East Boston, Massachusetts.  The project is expected to be ready for occupancy by second quarter 2018 and is estimated to cost $111.4 million of which development costs of $64.9 million have been incurred through June 30, 2017.  The remaining project costs are expected to be funded primarily from a $73 million construction loan (with $16.5 million outstanding as of June 30, 2017).

 

The Company is developing a 295-unit multi-family project in Weehawken, New Jersey, which began construction in first quarter 2016.  The project, which is expected to be ready for occupancy by first quarter 2018, is estimated to cost $124 million (of which development costs of $63.2 million have been incurred through June 30, 2017).  The project costs are expected to be funded primarily from a $78 million construction loan (with $30.4 million outstanding as of June 30, 2017).  The Company expects to fund $46 million for the development of the project, of which the Company has funded $32.8 million as of June 30, 2017.

 

The Company is developing a 310-unit multi-family project in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania, which began construction in third quarter 2016 with anticipated initial occupancy in second quarter 2019.  The project is estimated to cost $89.4 million (of which development costs of $22.3 million have been incurred through June 30, 2017).  The project costs are expected to be funded primarily through borrowings under the Company’s unsecured revolving credit facility.

 

REIT Restrictions:

 

To maintain its qualification as a REIT under the IRS Code, the General Partner must make annual distributions to its stockholders of at least 90 percent of its REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and by excluding net capital gains.  Moreover, the General Partner intends to continue to make regular quarterly distributions to its common stockholders.  Based upon the most recently paid common stock dividend rate of $0.20 per common share, in the aggregate, such distributions would equal approximately $71.9 million ($80.8 million, including units in the Operating Partnership, held by parties other than the General Partner) on an annualized basis.  However, any such distributions, whether for federal income tax purposes or otherwise, would be paid out of available cash, including borrowings and other sources, after meeting operating requirements, preferred stock dividends and distributions, and scheduled debt service on the Company’s debt.  If and to the extent the Company retains and does not distribute any net capital gains, the General Partner will be required to pay federal, state and local taxes on such net capital gains at the rate applicable to capital gains of a corporation.

Property Lock-Ups:

 

Through February 2016, the Company could not dispose of or distribute certain of its properties which were originally contributed by certain unrelated common unitholders of the Operating Partnership, without the express written consent of such common unitholders, as applicable, except in a manner which did not result in recognition of any built-in-gain (which may result in an income tax liability) or which reimbursed the appropriate specific common unitholders for the tax consequences of the recognition of such built-in-gains (collectively, the “Property Lock-Ups”).  The aforementioned restrictions did not apply in the event that the Company sold all of its properties or in connection with a sale transaction which the General Partner’s Board of Directors determined was reasonably necessary to satisfy a material monetary default on any unsecured debt, judgment or liability of the Company or to cure any material monetary default on any mortgage secured by a property.  The Property Lock-Ups expired in February 2016.  Upon the expiration of the Property Lock-Ups, the Company is generally required to use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any sale, transfer or other disposition of the subject properties from resulting in the recognition of built-in gain to the specific common unitholders, which include members of the Mack Group (which includes William L. Mack, Chairman of the General Partner’s Board of Directors; David S. Mack, director; and Earle I. Mack, a former director), the Robert Martin Group (which includes Robert F. Weinberg, a former director and current member of the General Partner’s Advisory Board), and the Cali Group (which includes John R. Cali, a former director and current member of the General Partner’s Advisory Board).  As of June 30, 2017, 102 of the Company’s properties, with an aggregate carrying value of approximately $1.2 billion, have lapsed restrictions and are subject to these conditions.

 

Unencumbered Properties:

 

As of June 30, 2017, the Company had 182 unencumbered properties with a carrying value of $2.4 billion representing 91.5 percent of the Company’s total consolidated property count.

Senior Unsecured Notes:

 

The terms of the Company’s senior unsecured notes (which totaled approximately $825.0 million as of June 30, 2017) include certain restrictions and covenants which require compliance with financial ratios relating to the maximum amount of debt leverage, the maximum amount of secured indebtedness, the minimum amount of debt service coverage and the maximum amount of unsecured debt as a percent of unsecured assets.

 

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loans:

 

On January 25, 2017, the Company entered into an amended revolving credit facility and new term loan agreement (“2017 Credit Agreement”) with a group of 13 lenders.  Pursuant to the 2017 Credit Agreement, the Company refinanced its existing $600 million unsecured revolving credit facility (“2017 Credit Facility”) and entered into a new $325 million unsecured, delayed-draw term loan facility (“2017 Term Loan”).

Table of Contents

 

The terms of the 2017 Credit Facility include: (1) a four-year term ending in January 2021, with two six-month extension options; (2) revolving credit loans may be made to the Company in an aggregate principal amount of up to $600 million (subject to increase as discussed below), with a sublimit under the 2017 Credit Facility for the issuance of letters of credit in an amount not to exceed $60 million (subject to increase as discussed below); (3) an interest rate based on the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings from Moody’s or S&P, currently the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 120 basis points, or, at the Operating Partnership’s option, if it no longer maintains a debt rating from Moody’s or S&P or such debt ratings fall below Baa3 and BBB-, based on a defined leverage ratio; and (4) a facility fee payable quarterly based on the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings from Moody’s or S&P, currently 25 basis points, or, at the Operating Partnership’s option, if it no longer maintains a debt rating from Moody’s or S&P or such debt ratings fall below Baa3 and BBB-, based on a defined leverage ratio.

 

The interest rates on outstanding borrowings, alternate base rate loans and the facility fee on the current borrowing capacity payable quarterly in arrears on the 2017 Credit Facility are based upon the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings, as follows:

The terms of the 2017 Term Loan include: (1) a three-year term ending in January 2020, with two one-year extension options; (2) multiple draws of the term loan commitments may be made within 12 months of the effective date of the 2017 Credit Agreement up to an aggregate principal amount of $325 million (subject to increase as discussed below), with no requirement to be drawn in full; provided, that, if the Company does not borrow at least 50 percent of the initial term commitment from the term lenders (i.e. 50 percent of $325 million) on or before July 25, 2017, the amount of unused term loan commitments shall be reduced on such date so that, after giving effect to such reduction, the amount of unused term loan commitments is not greater than the outstanding term loans on such date; (3) an interest rate based on the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings from Moody’s or S&P, currently the LIBOR plus 140 basis points, or, at the Operating Partnership’s option if it no longer maintains a debt rating from Moody’s or S&P or such debt ratings fall below Baa3 and BBB-, based on a defined leverage ratio; and (4) a term commitment fee on any unused term loan commitment during the first 12 months after the effective date of the 2017 Credit Agreement at a rate of 0.25 percent per annum on the sum of the average daily unused portion of the aggregate term loan commitments.

 

On March 22, 2017, the Company drew the full $325 million available under the 2017 Term Loan. On March 29, 2017, the Company executed interest rate swap arrangements to fix LIBOR with an aggregate average rate of 1.6473% for the swaps and a current aggregate fixed rate of 3.0473% for borrowings under the 2017 Term Loan.

On up to four occasions at any time after the effective date of the 2017 Credit Agreement, the Company may elect to request (1) an increase to the existing revolving credit commitments (any such increase, the “New Revolving Credit Commitments”) and/or (2) the establishment of one or more new term loan commitments (the “New Term Commitments”, together with the 2017 Credit Commitments, the “Incremental Commitments”), by up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $350 million for all Incremental Commitments.  The Company may also request that the sublimit for letters of credit available under the 2017 Credit Facility be increased to $100 million (without arranging any New Revolving Credit Commitments).  No lender or letter of credit issued has any obligation to accept any Incremental Commitment or any increase to the letter of credit subfacility.  There is no premium or penalty associated with full or partial prepayment of borrowings under the 2017 Credit Agreement.

 

The 2017 Credit Agreement, which applies to both the 2017 Credit Facility and 2017 Term Loan, includes certain restrictions and covenants which limit, among other things the incurrence of additional indebtedness, the incurrence of liens and the disposition of real estate properties (to the extent that: (i) such property dispositions cause the Company to default on any of the financial ratios of the 2017 Credit Agreement (described below), or (ii) the property dispositions are completed while the Company is under an event of default under the 2017 Credit Agreement, unless, under certain circumstances, such disposition is being carried out to cure such default), and which require compliance with financial ratios relating to the maximum leverage ratio (60 percent), the maximum amount of secured indebtedness (40 percent), the minimum amount of fixed charge coverage (1.5 times), the maximum amount of unsecured indebtedness (60 percent), the minimum amount of unencumbered property interest coverage (2.0 times) and certain investment limitations (generally 15 percent of total capitalization).  If an event of default has occurred and is continuing, the entire outstanding balance under the 2017 Credit Agreement may (or, in the case of any bankruptcy event of default, shall) become immediately due and payable, and the Company will not make any excess distributions except to enable the General Partner to continue to qualify as a REIT under the IRS Code.

Before it amended and restated its unsecured revolving credit facility in January 2017, the Company had a $600 million unsecured revolving credit facility with a group of 17 lenders that was scheduled to mature in July 2017. The interest rate on outstanding borrowings (not electing the Company’s competitive bid feature) and the facility fee on the current borrowing capacity payable quarterly in arrears was based upon the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings at the time, as follows:

In January 2016, the Company obtained a $350 million unsecured term loan (“2016 Term Loan”), which matures in January 2019 with two one-year extension options.  The interest rate for the term loan is currently 140 basis points over LIBOR, subject to adjustment on a sliding scale based on the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings, or, at the Company’s option, a defined leverage ratio.  The Company entered into interest rate swap arrangements to fix LIBOR for the duration of the term loan. Including costs, the current all-in fixed rate is 3.13 percent.  The proceeds from the loan were used primarily to repay outstanding borrowings on the Company’s then existing unsecured revolving credit facility and to repay $200 million senior unsecured notes that matured on January 15, 2016.

 

The interest rate on the 2016 Term Loan is based upon the Operating Partnership’s unsecured debt ratings, as follows:

The terms of the 2016 Term Loan include certain restrictions and covenants which limit, among other things the incurrence of additional indebtedness, the incurrence of liens and the disposition of real estate properties (to the extent that: (i) such property dispositions cause the Company to default on any of the financial ratios of the term loan described below, or (ii) the property dispositions are completed while the Company is under an event of default under the term loan, unless, under certain circumstances, such disposition is being carried out to cure such default), and which require compliance with financial ratios relating to the maximum leverage ratio (60 percent), the maximum amount of secured indebtedness (40 percent), the minimum amount of fixed charge coverage (1.5 times), the maximum amount of unsecured indebtedness (60 percent), the minimum amount of unencumbered property interest coverage (2.0 times) and certain investment limitations (generally 15 percent of total capitalization).  If an event of default has occurred and is continuing, the Company will not make any excess distributions except to enable the General Partner to continue to qualify as a REIT under the IRS Code.

 

Mortgages, Loans Payable and Other Obligations:

 

The Company has other mortgages, loans payable and other obligations which consist of various loans collateralized by certain of the Company’s rental properties.  Payments on mortgages, loans payable and other obligations are generally due in monthly installments of principal and interest, or interest only.

Debt Strategy:

 

The Company does not intend to reserve funds to retire the Company’s senior unsecured notes, outstanding borrowings under its unsecured revolving credit facility, its unsecured term loans, or its mortgages, loans payable and other obligations upon maturity.  Instead, the Company will seek to refinance such debt at maturity or retire such debt through the issuance of additional equity or debt securities on or before the applicable maturity dates.  If it cannot raise sufficient proceeds to retire the maturing debt, the Company may draw on its revolving credit facility to retire the maturing indebtedness, which would reduce the future availability of funds under such facility.  As of July 31, 2017, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $129 million under its unsecured revolving credit facility.  The Company is reviewing various financing and refinancing options, including the redemption or purchase of the Operating Partnership’s senior unsecured notes in public tender offers or privately-negotiated transactions, the issuance of additional, or exchange of current, unsecured debt of the Operating Partnership or common and preferred stock of the General Partner, and/or obtaining additional mortgage debt of the Operating Partnership, some or all of which may be completed in 2017.  The Company currently anticipates that its available cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operating activities and proceeds from the sale of office properties, together with cash available from borrowings and other sources, will be adequate to meet the Company’s capital and liquidity needs in the short term.  However, if these sources of funds are insufficient or unavailable, due to current economic conditions or otherwise, or if capital needs to fund acquisition and development opportunities in the multi-family rental sector arise, the Company’s ability to make the expected distributions discussed in “REIT Restrictions” above may be adversely affected.

Share/Unit Repurchase Program:

 

The General Partner has a share repurchase program which was renewed and authorized by its Board of Directors in September 2012 to purchase up to $150 million of the General Partner’s outstanding common stock (“Repurchase Program”), which it may repurchase from time to time in open market transactions at prevailing prices or through privately negotiated transactions.  As of June 30, 2017, the General Partner has a remaining authorization under the Repurchase Program of $139 million.  There were no common stock repurchases in 2016 and through July 31, 2017.

 

Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan:

 

The Company has a Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (the “DRIP”) which commenced in March 1999 under which approximately 5.5 million shares of the General Partner’s common stock have been reserved for future issuance.  The DRIP provides for automatic reinvestment of all or a portion of a participant’s dividends from the General Partner’s shares of common stock.  The DRIP also permits participants to make optional cash investments up to $5,000 a month without restriction and, if the Company waives this limit, for additional amounts subject to certain restrictions and other conditions set forth in the DRIP prospectus filed as part of the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for the approximately 5.5 million shares of the General Partner’s common stock reserved for issuance under the DRIP.

 

Shelf Registration Statements:

 

The General Partner has an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC for an aggregate amount of $2.0 billion in common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares, and/or warrants of the General Partner, under which no securities have been sold as of July 31, 2017.

 

The General Partner and the Operating Partnership also have an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the SEC for an aggregate amount of $2.5 billion in common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares and guarantees of the General Partner and debt securities of the Operating Partnership, under which no securities have been sold as of July 31, 2017.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

Unconsolidated Joint Venture Debt:

 

The debt of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures generally provide for recourse to the Company for customary matters such as intentional misuse of funds, environmental conditions and material misrepresentations. The Company has agreed to guarantee repayment of a portion of the debt of its unconsolidated joint ventures.  Such debt has a total facility amount of $206 million of which the Company has agreed to guarantee up to $24.8 million.  As of June 30, 2017, the outstanding balance of such debt totaled $189.5 million of which $22.7 million was guaranteed by the Company.

 

The Company’s off-balance sheet arrangements are further discussed in Note 4: Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures to the Financial Statements.

Funds from Operations

 

Funds from operations (“FFO”) (available to common stock and unit holders) is defined as net income (loss) before noncontrolling interests of unitholders, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from depreciable rental property transactions, and impairments related to depreciable rental property, plus real estate-related depreciation and amortization.  The Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors as one of several measures of the performance of an equity REIT.  The Company further believes that as FFO excludes the effect of depreciation, gains (or losses) from sales of properties and impairments related to depreciable rental property (all of which are based on historical costs which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance), FFO can facilitate comparison of operating performance between equity REITs.

 

FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income available to common shareholders as an indication of the Company’s performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.  FFO presented herein is not necessarily comparable to FFO presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definition.  However, the Company’s FFO is comparable to the FFO of real estate companies that use the current definition of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”).

As the Company considers its primary earnings measure, net income available to common shareholders, as defined by GAAP, to be the most comparable earnings measure to FFO, the following table presents a reconciliation of net income available to common shareholders to FFO, as calculated in accordance with NAREIT’s current definition, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 (in thousands):

Inflation

 

The Company’s leases with the majority of its commercial tenants provide for recoveries and escalation charges based upon the tenant’s proportionate share of, and/or increases in, real estate taxes and certain operating costs, which reduce the Company’s exposure to increases in operating costs resulting from inflation.  The Company believes that inflation did not materially impact the Company’s results of operations and financial condition for the periods presented.

 

DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

We consider portions of this information, including the documents incorporated by reference, to be forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 21E of such act.  Such forward-looking statements relate to, without limitation, our future economic performance, plans and objectives for future operations and projections of revenue and other financial items.  Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “plan,” “potential,” “projected,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “target,” “continue” or comparable terminology.  Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which we cannot predict with accuracy and some of which we might not even anticipate.  Although we believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions at the time made, we can give no assurance that such expectations will be achieved.  Future events and actual results, financial and otherwise, may differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements.  Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

 

Among the factors about which we have made assumptions are:

 

·                  risks and uncertainties affecting the general economic climate and conditions, which in turn may have a negative effect on the fundamentals of our business and the financial condition of our tenants and residents;

·                  the value of our real estate assets, which may limit our ability to dispose of assets at attractive prices or obtain or maintain debt financing secured by our properties or on an unsecured basis;

·                  the extent of any tenant bankruptcies or of any early lease terminations;

·                  our ability to lease or re-lease space at current or anticipated rents;

·                  changes in the supply of and demand for our properties;

·                  changes in interest rate levels and volatility in the securities markets;

·                  our ability to complete construction and development activities on time and within budget, including without limitation obtaining regulatory permits and the availability and cost of materials, labor and equipment;

·                  forward-looking financial and operational information, including information relating to future development projects, potential acquisitions or dispositions, and projected revenue and income;

·                  changes in operating costs;

·                  our ability to obtain adequate insurance, including coverage for terrorist acts;

 

71



Table of Contents

 

·                  our credit worthiness and the availability of financing on attractive terms or at all, which may adversely impact our ability to pursue acquisition and development opportunities and refinance existing debt and our future interest expense;

·                  changes in governmental regulation, tax rates and similar matters; and

·                  other risks associated with the development and acquisition of properties, including risks that the development may not be completed on schedule, that the tenants or residents will not take occupancy or pay rent, or that development or operating costs may be greater than anticipated.

 

For further information on factors which could impact us and the statements contained herein, see Item 1A: Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.  We assume no obligation to update and supplement forward-looking statements that become untrue because of subsequent events, new information or otherwise.

 

Item 3.                                 Quantitative And Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and equity prices.  In pursuing its business plan, the primary market risk to which the Company is exposed is interest rate risk.  Changes in the general level of interest rates prevailing in the financial markets may affect the spread between the Company’s yield on invested assets and cost of funds and, in turn, its ability to make distributions or payments to its investors.

 

Approximately $2.6 billion of the Company’s long-term debt as of June 30, 2017 bears interest at fixed rates and therefore the fair value of these instruments is affected by changes in market interest rates.  The following table presents principal cash flows (in thousands) based upon maturity dates of the debt obligations and the related weighted-average interest rates by expected maturity dates for the fixed rate debt.  The interest rates on the Company’s variable rate debt as of June 30, 2017 ranged from LIBOR plus 187 basis points to LIBOR plus 950 basis points.  Assuming interest-rate swaps and caps are not in effect, if market rates of interest on the Company’s variable rate debt increased or decreased by 100 basis points, then the increase or decrease in interest costs on the Company’s variable rate debt would be approximately $3.7 million annually and the increase or decrease in the fair value of the Company’s fixed rate debt as of June 30, 2017 would be approximately $90.0 million.

While the Company has not experienced any significant credit losses, in the event of a significant rising interest rate environment and/or economic downturn, defaults could increase and result in losses to the Company which could adversely affect its operating results and liquidity.
