Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Readers of this Quarterly Report should refer to the audited financial statements of Retail Properties of America, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2017, which are included in its 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as certain footnote disclosures which would substantially duplicate those contained in the Annual Report have been omitted from this Quarterly Report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary, all of which were of normal recurring nature, for a fair presentation have been included in this Quarterly Report.

(1) ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Retail Properties of America, Inc. (the Company) was formed on March 5, 2003 and its primary purpose is to own and operate high quality, strategically located open-air shopping centers, including properties with a mixed-use component. As of September 30, 2018, the Company owned 105 retail operating properties in the United States.

The Company has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (REIT) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). The Company believes it qualifies for taxation as a REIT and, as such, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on taxable income that is distributed to its shareholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income, property or net worth and U.S. federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. The Company has one wholly-owned subsidiary that has jointly elected to be treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary (TRS) and is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes at regular corporate tax rates. The income tax expense incurred by the TRS did not have a material impact on the Company’s accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. For example, significant estimates and assumptions have been made with respect to useful lives of assets, capitalization of development costs, fair value measurements, provision for impairment, including estimates of holding periods, capitalization rates and discount rates (where applicable), provision for income taxes, recoverable amounts of receivables, deferred taxes and initial valuations and related amortization periods of deferred costs and intangibles, particularly with respect to property acquisitions. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

All share amounts and dollar amounts in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, are stated in thousands with the exception of per share amounts and per square foot amounts.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, as well as all wholly-owned subsidiaries and any consolidated variable interest entities (VIEs). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Wholly-owned subsidiaries generally consist of limited liability companies, limited partnerships and statutory trusts.

The Company’s property ownership as of September 30, 2018 is summarized below:

	Property Count
Retail operating properties	105
Redevelopment projects:
Reisterstown Road Plaza	1
Circle East – redevelopment portion (a)	—
Carillon (b)	1
Total number of wholly-owned properties	107

(a) This portion of the property was formerly known as Towson Circle and the operating portion, which was formerly known as Towson Square, is included within the property count for retail operating properties.

(b) The Company has begun activities in anticipation of future redevelopment of this property, which was formerly known as Boulevard at the Capital Centre.

(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Refer to the Company’s 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a summary of its significant accounting policies. Except as disclosed below, there have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies in the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, on a modified retrospective basis. This new guidance replaces existing revenue recognition standards. The core principle of this standard is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue follows the existing leasing guidance and is not impacted by the adoption of this standard, however, the sale of investment property is required to follow the new guidance as well as ASU 2017-05, Other Income–Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets discussed below. The sale of investment property is reported as “gain on sales of investment properties” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive income (loss) and further discussed in Note 4 – Dispositions. The adoption of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as substantially all of its revenue falls outside of the scope of this guidance.

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2017-05, Other Income–Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets, on a modified retrospective basis. This new pronouncement, which adds guidance for partial sales of nonfinancial assets and clarifies the scope of Subtopic 610-20, Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets, applies to the derecognition of all nonfinancial assets (including real estate) for which the counterparty is not a customer. The sale of investment property is reported as “gain on sales of investment properties” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive income (loss) and further discussed in Note 4 – Dispositions. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as the adoption of the new guidance did not result in a change to the timing or amount of gain recognized upon disposition as compared to the previous guidance.

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall,on a prospective basis. This new guidance requires companies to disclose the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities measured at amortized cost in accordance with the exit price notion, which is consistent with the Company’s existing practices, and no longer requires disclosure of the methods and significant assumptions used, including any changes, to estimate fair value. In addition, companies are required to disclose all financial assets and financial liabilities grouped by (i) measurement category and (ii) form of financial instrument. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company elected to early adopt ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging, as of January 1, 2018. This new guidance amends the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results in an entity’s financial statements. It also eliminates the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness. Entities are now required to present the earnings effect of the hedging instrument in the same income statement line item in which they report the earnings effect of the hedged item. In addition, entities may perform the initial quantitative assessment of hedge effectiveness at any time after hedge designation, but no later than the first quarterly effectiveness testing date, and subsequent assessments of hedge effectiveness may be performed qualitatively unless facts and circumstances change. Disclosure requirements have been modified to include a tabular disclosure related to the effect of hedging instruments on the income statement and the requirement to disclose the ineffective portion of the change in fair value of such instruments has been eliminated. The adoption of this pronouncement resulted in a cumulative effect adjustment of $12 to accumulated other comprehensive income and accumulated distributions in excess of earnings related to eliminating the separate measurement of ineffectiveness. The amended presentation and disclosure guidance is required only prospectively.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. This new guidance is effective January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The pronouncement will require lessees to recognize a liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use (ROU) asset, initially measured at the present value of lease payments, for both operating and financing leases. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, lessees will be permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

underlying asset to not recognize lease liabilities and lease assets. The guidance allows lessors to make an accounting policy election, by class of underlying asset, to not separate non-lease components from lease components if certain requirements are met but requires lessors to recognize real estate tax expense and recovery income for tenants that self-pay real estate taxes. The guidance also provides an optional transition method which would allow entities to initially apply the new guidance in the period of adoption, recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings, if necessary, and provides a package of three practical expedients whereby companies will not be required to reassess (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) the lease classification (operating vs. capital/financing leases) for any expired or existing leases and (iii) initial direct costs for any existing leases (Package of Three Practical Expedients).

Upon adoption, the Company will recognize a lease liability and an ROU asset for operating leases where it is the lessee, such as ground leases and office leases. The Company is in the process of evaluating the inputs required to calculate the amounts that will be recorded on its balance sheet for each lease. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, the Company expects to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset to not recognize lease liabilities and lease assets. For leases where it is the lessor, the Company expects that accounting for lease components will be largely unchanged from existing GAAP and to elect the practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from lease components. The Company also expects to record real estate tax expense and tenant recovery income, as well as real estate tax payables and recovery receivables, for tenants that pay real estate taxes directly to the taxing authorities. This will gross-up the Company’s statement of operations and balance sheet but will have no net impact on the Company’s net income attributable to common shareholders and no impact to its cash flows. Only incremental direct leasing costs may be capitalized under the new guidance, which is consistent with the Company’s existing policies. The Company expects to adopt this new guidance on January 1, 2019, apply the requirements as of that date and elect the Package of Three Practical Expedients. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of this guidance until it becomes effective, but the Company does not expect the guidance regarding capitalization of leasing costs will have any effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2018, the SEC issued a final rule, Inline XBRL Filing of Tagged Data, which will require the use of the Inline eXtensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL) format for the submission of operating company financial statement information. In addition, the final rule will eliminate the requirement for operating companies to post “Interactive Data Files” (i.e., machine-readable computer code that presents information in XBRL format) on their websites. Large accelerated filers that prepare their financial statements in accordance with GAAP will be subject to Inline XBRL requirements beginning with the fiscal period ending on or after June 15, 2019. The Company expects to use Inline XBRL starting with its Form 10-Q for the quarter ending June 30, 2019.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. This new guidance is effective January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted beginning January 1, 2019, and replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. Financial assets that are measured at amortized cost will be required to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected with an allowance for credit losses deducted from the amortized cost basis. In addition, an entity must consider broader information in developing its expected credit loss estimate, including the use of forecasted information. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the FASB issued a proposed ASU, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, which, if adopted, would clarify that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of this new guidance. Generally, the pronouncement requires a modified retrospective method of adoption. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of this guidance until it becomes effective.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement. This new guidance is effective January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted, and provides new, and in some cases eliminates or modifies the existing disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. Public entities will now be required to disclose the following: (i) the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and (ii) the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. In addition, public entities will no longer be required to disclose the following: (i) the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, (ii) the policy for timing of transfers between levels and (iii) the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. The new pronouncement also clarifies and modifies certain existing provisions to promote the appropriate exercise of discretion by entities when considering fair value measurement disclosures and clarifies that materiality is an appropriate consideration when evaluating disclosure requirements. As permitted by the new pronouncement, the Company has removed the discussion of its valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements in this Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2018. No other disclosures were removed as the Company did not have any transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the current and comparative periods. The Company expects to adopt the new disclosures on a prospective basis as of January 1, 2020.

(a) This property was acquired through two consolidated VIEs and was used to facilitate an Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 tax-deferred exchange (1031 Exchange).

(b) The wholly-owned multi-tenant retail operating property formerly known as Boulevard at the Capital Centre, which is located in Largo, Maryland, was previously subject to an approximately 70 acre long-term ground lease with a third party. The Company completed a transaction whereby it received the fee interest in approximately 50 acres of the underlying land in exchange for which (i) the Company paid $1,939 and (ii) the term of the ground lease with respect to the remaining approximately 20 acres was shortened to nine months. The Company derecognized building and improvements of $11,347 related to the remaining ground lease, recognized the fair value of land received of $15,200 and recorded a deferred gain of $2,524 as of September 30, 2017, which was recognized during the three months ended December 31, 2017 upon the expiration of the ground lease on approximately 20 acres. The total number of properties in the Company’s portfolio was not affected by this transaction.

(c) The Company acquired the remaining five phases under contract, including the development rights for an additional 123 residential units for a total of 408 units, at its One Loudoun Downtown multi-tenant retail operating property, which were accounted for as asset acquisitions. The total number of properties in the Company’s portfolio was not affected by these transactions.

(d) Acquisition price does not include capitalized closing costs and adjustments totaling $2,190.

The following table summarizes the acquisition date values, before prorations, the Company recorded in conjunction with the acquisitions discussed above:

	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017

(b) The weighted average amortization period for acquired lease intangible liabilities is 13 years for acquisitions completed during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

The above acquisitions were funded using a combination of available cash on hand, proceeds from dispositions and proceeds from the Company’s unsecured revolving line of credit. All of the acquisitions completed during 2017 were considered asset acquisitions and, as such, transaction costs were capitalized upon closing.

Variable Interest Entities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company entered into an agreement with a qualified intermediary related to a 1031 Exchange. The Company loaned $87,452 to the VIEs to acquire Main Street Promenade on January 13, 2017. The 1031 Exchange was completed during the year ended December 31, 2017 and, in accordance with applicable provisions of the Code, within 180 days after the acquisition date of the property. At the completion of the 1031 Exchange, the sole membership interests of the VIEs were assigned to the Company in satisfaction of the outstanding loan, resulting in the entities being wholly owned by the Company and no longer considered VIEs.

Prior to the completion of the 1031 Exchange, the Company was deemed to be the primary beneficiary of each VIE as it had the ability to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly impact their economic performance and had all of the risks and rewards of ownership. Accordingly, the Company consolidated the VIEs. No value or income was attributed to the noncontrolling interest. The assets of the VIEs consisted of the investment property, Main Street Promenade, which was operated by the Company.

(4) DISPOSITIONS

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and ASU 2017-05, Other Income–Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets on a modified retrospective basis. The dispositions completed during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 were not considered to be contracts with customers as defined in ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as they are not considered an output of the Company’s ordinary business activities. Rather, the dispositions follow the new guidance of ASU 2017-05, Other Income–Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets. The adoption on a modified retrospective basis requires the guidance and related disclosure requirements of ASU 2017-05 to be followed for contracts related to the sale of investment properties completed during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Disclosures related to periods prior to January 1, 2018 for the sale of investment properties are not impacted by the adoption.

Under the new guidance, derecognition of nonfinancial assets and in substance nonfinancial assets, including real estate, and the related gains on sale of investment properties are recognized when (i) the parties to the sale contract have approved the contract and are committed to perform their respective obligations; (ii) the Company can identify each party’s rights regarding the property transferred; (iii) the Company can identify the payment terms for the property transferred; (iv) the contract has commercial substance (that is, the risk, timing or amount of the entity’s future cash flows is expected to change as a result of the contract); and (v) the Company has satisfied its performance obligations by transferring control of the property. Typically, the timing of payment and satisfaction of performance obligations occur simultaneously on the disposition date upon transfer of the property’s ownership.

The Company closed on the following dispositions during the nine months ended September 30, 2018:

Date	Property Name	Property Type	Square Footage	Consideration		Aggregate Proceeds, Net (a)		Gain
January 19, 2018	Crown Theater	Single-user retail	74,200	$	6,900	$	6,350	$	2,952

(a) Aggregate proceeds are net of transaction costs, as well as capital and tenant-related costs credited to the buyer at close, as applicable, and exclude $169 of condemnation proceeds, which did not result in any additional gain recognition.

(b) The Company repaid a $10,750 mortgage payable in conjunction with the disposition of the property.

(c) The Company recorded an additional gain on sale of $1,407 during the three months ended September 30, 2018 upon satisfaction of performance obligations associated with escrow agreements executed upon disposition of the property.

Unsecured Credit Facility

On April 23, 2018, the Company entered into its fifth amended and restated unsecured credit agreement (Unsecured Credit Agreement) with a syndicate of financial institutions led by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association serving as syndication agent and KeyBank National Association serving as administrative agent to provide for an unsecured credit facility aggregating $1,100,000 (Unsecured Credit Facility). The Unsecured Credit Facility consists of an $850,000 unsecured revolving line of credit and a $250,000 unsecured term loan and is priced on a leverage grid at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread. In accordance with the Unsecured Credit Agreement, the Company may elect to convert to an investment grade pricing grid. As of September 30, 2018, making such an election would have resulted in a higher interest rate and, as such, the Company has not made the election to convert to an investment grade pricing grid.

The following table summarizes the key terms of the Unsecured Credit Facility:

				Leverage-Based Pricing		Investment Grade Pricing
Unsecured Credit Facility	Maturity Date	Extension Option	Extension Fee	Credit Spread	Facility Fee	Credit Spread	Facility Fee
$250,000 unsecured term loan	1/5/2021	N/A	N/A	1.20% - 1.70%	N/A	0.90% - 1.75%	N/A

The Unsecured Credit Facility has a $500,000 accordion option that allows the Company, at its election, to increase the total Unsecured Credit Facility up to $1,600,000, subject to (i) customary fees and conditions including, but not limited to, the absence of an event of default as defined in the Unsecured Credit Agreement and (ii) the Company’s ability to obtain additional lender commitments.

The Unsecured Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants, and events of default. Pursuant to the terms of the Unsecured Credit Agreement, the Company is subject to various financial covenants, including the requirement to maintain the following: (i) maximum unencumbered, secured and consolidated leverage ratios; and (ii) minimum fixed charge and unencumbered interest coverage ratios. As of September 30, 2018, management believes the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants and default provisions under the Unsecured Credit Agreement.

The Company previously had a $1,200,000 unsecured credit facility that consisted of the following: (i) a $750,000 unsecured revolving line of credit that bore interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread ranging from 1.35% to 2.25% and was scheduled to mature on January 5, 2020; (ii) a $250,000 unsecured term loan that bore interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread ranging from 1.30% to 2.20% and was scheduled to mature on January 5, 2021; and (iii) a $200,000 unsecured term loan that bore interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread ranging from 1.45% to 2.20% and was scheduled to mature on May 11, 2018. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company repaid $100,000 of the unsecured term loan due 2018 and in conjunction with the execution of the Unsecured Credit Agreement in 2018, the Company repaid the remaining $100,000 balance of the unsecured term loan due 2018.

Term Loan Due 2023

On January 3, 2017, the Company received funding on a seven-year $200,000 unsecured term loan (Term Loan Due 2023) with a group of financial institutions, which closed during the year ended December 31, 2016. The Term Loan Due 2023 is priced on a leverage grid at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread. In accordance with the term loan agreement (Term Loan Agreement), the Company may elect to convert to an investment grade pricing grid. As of September 30, 2018, making such an election would have resulted in a higher interest rate and, as such, the Company has not made the election to convert to an investment grade pricing grid.

The following table summarizes the key terms of the Term Loan Due 2023:

Term Loan Due 2023	Maturity Date	Leverage-Based Pricing Credit Spread	Investment Grade Pricing Credit Spread
$200,000 unsecured term loan	11/22/2023	1.70% – 2.55%	1.50% – 2.45%

The Term Loan Due 2023 has a $100,000 accordion option that allows the Company, at its election, to increase the total unsecured term loan up to $300,000, subject to (i) customary fees and conditions, including the absence of an event of default as defined in the Term Loan Agreement and (ii) the Company’s ability to obtain additional lender commitments.

The Term Loan Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants, and events of default, including financial covenants that require the Company to maintain the following: (i) maximum unencumbered, secured and consolidated leverage ratios; and (ii) minimum fixed charge and unencumbered interest coverage ratios. As of September 30, 2018, management believes the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants and default provisions under the Term Loan Agreement.

(9) DERIVATIVES

The Company elected to early adopt ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging, as of January 1, 2018. The adoption eliminated the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness. The Company is now required to present the earnings effect of its hedging instruments in the same income statement line item in which it reports the earnings effect of the hedged items. Disclosures related to periods prior to January 1, 2018 are not impacted by the adoption.

The Company’s objective in using interest rate derivatives is to manage its exposure to interest rate movements and add stability to interest expense. To accomplish this objective, the Company uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed rate payments over the life of the agreement without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

As of September 30, 2018, the Company used five interest rate swaps to hedge the variable cash flows associated with variable rate debt. Changes in fair value of the derivatives that are designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded in “Accumulated other comprehensive income” and are reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable rate debt. Over the next 12 months, the Company estimates that an additional $1,509 will be reclassified as a decrease to interest expense. Prior to January 1, 2018, only the effective portion of changes in fair value of the derivatives that were designated and that qualified as cash flow hedges was recorded in “Accumulated other comprehensive income” and the ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives was recognized directly in earnings.

(10) EQUITY

In December 2015, the Company entered into an at-the-market (ATM) equity program under which it may issue and sell shares of its Class A common stock, having an aggregate offering price of up to $250,000, from time to time. Actual sales may depend on a variety of factors, including, among others, market conditions and the trading price of the Company’s Class A common stock. Any net proceeds are expected to be used for general corporate purposes, which may include the funding of acquisitions and redevelopment activities and the repayment of debt, including the Company’s unsecured revolving line of credit. The Company did not sell any shares under its ATM equity program during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. As of September 30, 2018, the Company had Class A common shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $250,000 remaining available for sale under its ATM equity program.

In December 2015, the Company’s board of directors authorized a common stock repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase, from time to time, up to a maximum of $250,000 of shares of its Class A common stock. In December 2017, the Company’s board of directors authorized a $250,000 increase to the common stock repurchase program. The shares may be repurchased in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions and are canceled upon repurchase. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including price in absolute terms and in relation to the value of the Company’s assets, corporate and regulatory requirements, market conditions and other corporate liquidity requirements and priorities. The common stock repurchase program may be suspended or terminated at any time without prior notice.

(13) FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following table presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of the Company’s financial instruments:

	September 30, 2018				December 31, 2017
	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value
Financial assets:
Derivative asset	$	5,562	$	5,562	$	1,086	$	1,086
Financial liabilities:
Mortgages payable, net	$	206,104	$	206,546	$	287,068	$	298,635
Unsecured notes payable, net	$	696,209	$	672,108	$	695,748	$	693,823
Unsecured term loans, net	$	447,750	$	455,007	$	547,270	$	552,555
Unsecured revolving line of credit	$	209,000	$	209,000	$	216,000	$	216,222

The carrying value of the derivative asset is included in “Other assets, net” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The following table presents the Company’s financial instruments, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall. Methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of these instruments are described after the table.

	Fair Value
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
September 30, 2018
Derivative asset	$	—	$	5,562	$	—	$	5,562
December 31, 2017
Derivative asset	$	—	$	1,086	$	—	$	1,086

Derivative asset:  The fair value of the derivative asset is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected future cash flows of each derivative. This analysis uses observable market data including forward yield curves and implied volatilities to determine the market’s expectation of the future cash flows of the variable component. The fixed and variable components of the derivative are then discounted using calculated discount factors developed based on the LIBOR swap rate and are aggregated to arrive at a single valuation for the period. The Company also incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives use Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. However, as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, 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. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company has considered any

applicable credit enhancements. The Company’s derivative instruments are further described in Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company did not remeasure any assets to fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of September 30, 2018. The following table presents the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of December 31, 2017, aggregated by the level within the fair value hierarchy in which those measurements fall. The table includes information related to properties remeasured to fair value as a result of impairment charges recorded during the year ended December 31, 2017, except for those properties sold prior to December 31, 2017. Methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of these assets are described after the table.

	Fair Value
	Level 1		Level 2			Level 3		Total		Provision for Impairment (a)
December 31, 2017
Investment properties	$	—	$	74,250	(b)	$	—	$	74,250	$	50,077

(a) Excludes impairment charges recorded on investment properties sold prior to December 31, 2017.

(b) Represents the fair value of the Company’s Schaumburg Towers and Home Depot Plaza investment properties. The estimated fair value of Schaumburg Towers was based on an expected sales price of $87,600 from a bona fide purchase offer, determined to be a Level 2 input, which contemplates historically deferred maintenance and capital requirements. The estimated fair value of $58,000 as of September 30, 2017, the date the asset was measured at fair value, reflects (i) capital expenditures expected to be incurred by the Company prior to sale and (ii) tenant-related costs expected to be credited to the buyer at close. The estimated fair value of Home Depot Plaza of $16,250 as of December 31, 2017, the date the asset was measured at fair value, was based upon the expected sales price for an executed sales contract and determined to be a Level 2 input.

Net income attributable to common shareholders	$	12,834		$	33,542		$	(20,708	)

We owned 120 retail operating properties and one office complex as of September 30, 2017, which decreased to 105 retail operating properties as of September 30, 2018 as a result of the completion of our portfolio transformation during the first half of 2018.

Net income attributable to common shareholders decreased $20,708 from $33,542 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 to $12,834 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 primarily as a result of the following:

• a $70,390 decrease in gain on sales of investment properties related to the sale of a land parcel and recognition of additional gain upon satisfaction of performance obligations associated with escrow agreements executed upon disposition of a property on March 21, 2018, during the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to the sales of 11 investment properties, representing approximately 1,813,300 square feet of GLA, during the three months ended September 30, 2017; and

• a $10,002 decrease in rental income primarily consisting of a $9,073 decrease in base rent, which resulted from the operating properties sold during 2017 and 2018 along with our redevelopments, partially offset by growth from our same store portfolio and an increase from the operating properties acquired during 2017;

partially offset by

• a $45,822 decrease in provision for impairment of investment properties. Based on the results of our evaluations for impairment (see Notes 12 and 13 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements), we recognized impairment charges of $45,822 for the three months ended September 30, 2017. No impairment charges were recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2018;

• an $8,300 decrease in depreciation and amortization primarily due to the investment properties sold during 2017; and

• a $4,595 decrease in operating expenses and real estate taxes, net of tenant recovery income, primarily as a result of the operating properties sold during 2017 and 2018 and the decrease from our same store portfolio.

Net operating income (NOI)

We define NOI as all revenues other than (i) straight-line rental income (non-cash), (ii) amortization of lease inducements, (iii) amortization of acquired above and below market lease intangibles and (iv) lease termination fee income, less real estate taxes and all operating expenses other than lease termination fee expense, straight-line ground rent expense (non-cash) and amortization of acquired ground lease intangibles (non-cash). NOI consists of same store NOI (Same Store NOI) and NOI from other investment properties (NOI from Other Investment Properties). We believe that NOI, Same Store NOI and NOI from Other Investment Properties, which are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures, provide an additional and useful operating perspective not immediately apparent from “Operating income” or “Net income attributable to common shareholders” in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). We use these measures to evaluate our performance on a property-by-property basis because they allow management to evaluate the impact that factors such as lease structure, lease rates and tenant base have on our operating results. NOI, Same Store NOI and NOI from Other Investment Properties do not represent alternatives to “Net income” or “Net income attributable to common shareholders” in accordance with GAAP as indicators of our financial performance. Comparison of our presentation of NOI, Same Store NOI and NOI from Other Investment Properties to similarly titled measures for other REITs may not necessarily be meaningful due to possible differences in definition and application by such REITs. For reference and as an aid in understanding our computation of NOI, a reconciliation of net income attributable to common shareholders as computed in accordance with GAAP to Same Store NOI has been presented for each comparable period presented.

Same store portfolio

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, our same store portfolio consisted of 102 retail operating properties acquired or placed in service and stabilized prior to January 1, 2017. The number of properties in our same store portfolio did not change as of September 30, 2018 from 102 as of June 30, 2018.

The properties and financial results reported in “Other investment properties” primarily include the following:

• properties acquired after December 31, 2016;

• Reisterstown Road Plaza, which is in active redevelopment;

• the redevelopment portion of Circle East, which is in active redevelopment;

• Carillon, where we have begun activities in anticipation of future redevelopment;

• properties that were sold or held for sale in 2017 and 2018, including Schaumburg Towers; and

• the net income from our wholly-owned captive insurance company.

Same Store NOI increased $2,820, or 3.8%, primarily due to the following:

• property operating expenses and real estate taxes, net of tenant recovery income, decreased $1,615 primarily due to decreases in certain non-recoverable property operating expenses and lower net recoverable property operating expenses; and

• base rent increased $1,273 primarily due to $735 from contractual rent changes, $370 from re-leasing spreads and $161 from occupancy growth primarily from our small shop space.

We owned 120 retail operating properties and one office complex as of September 30, 2017, which decreased to 105 retail operating properties as of September 30, 2018 as a result of the completion of our portfolio transformation during the first half of 2018.

Net income attributable to common shareholders decreased $68,984 from $134,480 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 to $65,496 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 primarily as a result of the following:

• a $193,663 decrease in gain on sales of investment properties related to the sales of nine investment properties and a land parcel, representing approximately 1,773,000 square feet of GLA, and the sale of air rights at the redevelopment portion of Circle East during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to the sales of 34 investment properties and a single-user parcel at an existing multi-tenant retail operating property, representing approximately 4,302,400 square feet of GLA, during the nine months ended September 30, 2017; and

• a $38,892 decrease in rental income primarily consisting of a $41,649 decrease in base rent, which resulted from the operating properties sold during 2017 and 2018 along with our redevelopments, partially offset by an increase from the operating properties acquired during 2017 and growth from our same store portfolio;

partially offset by

• a $71,159 decrease in interest expense primarily consisting of:

• a $61,720 decrease in prepayment penalties and defeasance premiums and a $4,055 decrease in capitalized loan fee write-offs primarily related to the defeasance of the IW JV portfolio of mortgages payable during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, which resulted in a defeasance premium and associated fees totaling $60,198 and the write-off of $4,003 of capitalized loan fees;

• a $4,130 decrease in interest on mortgages payable due to a reduction in mortgage debt; and

• a $2,769 decrease in interest due to the repayment of a $100,000 variable-rate term loan in April 2018;

33

• a $57,540 decrease in provision for impairment of investment properties. Based on the results of our evaluations for impairment (see Notes 12 and 13 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements), we recognized impairment charges of $1,316 and $58,856 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively;

• a $25,161 decrease in depreciation and amortization primarily due to the investment properties sold during 2017; and

• a $7,087 decrease in preferred stock dividends due to the redemption of our 7.00% Series A cumulative redeemable preferred stock on December 20, 2017.

Funds From Operations Attributable to Common Shareholders

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, an industry trade group, has promulgated a financial measure known as funds from operations (FFO). As defined by NAREIT, FFO means net income (loss) computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable real estate, plus depreciation and amortization and impairment charges on depreciable real estate. We have adopted the NAREIT definition in our computation of FFO attributable to common shareholders. Management believes that, subject to the following limitations, FFO attributable to common shareholders provides a basis for comparing our performance and operations to those of other REITs.

We define Operating FFO attributable to common shareholders as FFO attributable to common shareholders excluding the impact of discrete non-operating transactions and other events which we do not consider representative of the comparable operating results of our real estate operating portfolio, which is our core business platform. Specific examples of discrete non-operating transactions and other events include, but are not limited to, the impact on earnings from gains or losses associated with the early extinguishment of debt or other liabilities, gain on sale and impairment charges on assets other than depreciable real estate, litigation involving the Company, including actual or anticipated settlement and associated legal costs, the impact on earnings from executive separation and the excess of redemption value over carrying value of preferred stock redemption, which are not otherwise adjusted in our calculation of FFO attributable to common shareholders.

We believe that FFO attributable to common shareholders and Operating FFO attributable to common shareholders, which are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures, provide an additional and useful means to assess the operating performance of REITs. FFO attributable to common shareholders and Operating FFO attributable to common shareholders do not represent alternatives to (i) “Net Income” or “Net income attributable to common shareholders” as indicators of our financial performance, or (ii) “Cash flows from operating activities” in accordance with GAAP as measures of our capacity to fund cash needs, including the payment of dividends. Comparison of our presentation of Operating FFO attributable to common shareholders to similarly titled measures for other REITs may not necessarily be meaningful due to possible differences in definition and application by such REITs.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net income attributable to common shareholders to FFO attributable to common shareholders and Operating FFO attributable to common shareholders:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We anticipate that cash flows from the below-listed sources will provide adequate capital for the next 12 months and beyond for all scheduled principal and interest payments on our outstanding indebtedness, including maturing debt, current and anticipated tenant allowances or other capital obligations, the shareholder distributions required to maintain our REIT status and compliance with the financial covenants of our unsecured debt agreements.

Our primary expected sources and uses of liquidity are as follows:

	SOURCES		USES
▪	Operating cash flow	▪	Tenant allowances and leasing costs
▪	Cash and cash equivalents	▪	Improvements made to individual properties, certain of which are not
▪	Available borrowings under our unsecured revolving		recoverable through common area maintenance charges to tenants
	line of credit	▪	Debt repayments
▪	Proceeds from capital markets transactions	▪	Distribution payments
▪	Proceeds from asset dispositions	▪	Redevelopment, renovation or expansion activities
		▪	Acquisitions
		▪	New development
		▪	Repurchases of our common stock

We have made substantial progress over the last several years in strengthening our balance sheet, as demonstrated by our reduced leverage, improved financial flexibility and higher unencumbered asset ratio. We have funded debt maturities primarily through asset dispositions and capital markets transactions, including the public offering of our common stock and private and public offerings of senior unsecured notes. As of September 30, 2018, we had $752 of principal amortization due through the end of 2018, which we plan on satisfying through a combination of cash flows from operations, working capital, capital markets transactions and our unsecured revolving line of credit.

The table below summarizes our consolidated indebtedness as of September 30, 2018:

Unsecured Notes Payable

Notes Due 2026 and 2028

On September 30, 2016, we issued $100,000 of 4.08% senior unsecured notes due 2026 in a private placement transaction pursuant to a note purchase agreement we entered into with certain institutional investors on September 30, 2016. Pursuant to the same note purchase agreement, on December 28, 2016, we also issued $100,000 of 4.24% senior unsecured notes due 2028 (Notes Due 2026 and 2028). The proceeds were used to pay down our unsecured revolving line of credit, early repay certain longer-dated mortgages payable and for general corporate purposes.

The note purchase agreement governing the Notes Due 2026 and 2028 contains customary representations, warranties and covenants, and events of default. Pursuant to the terms of the note purchase agreement, we are subject to various financial covenants, including the requirement to maintain the following: (i) maximum unencumbered, secured and consolidated leverage ratios; (ii) a minimum interest coverage ratio; (iii) an unencumbered interest coverage ratio (as set forth in our unsecured credit facility and the note purchase agreement governing the Notes Due 2021 and 2024 described below); and (iv) a fixed charge coverage ratio (as set forth in our unsecured credit facility).

Notes Due 2025

On March 12, 2015, we completed a public offering of $250,000 in aggregate principal amount of 4.00% senior unsecured notes due 2025 (Notes Due 2025). The Notes Due 2025 were priced at 99.526% of the principal amount to yield 4.058% to maturity. The proceeds were used to repay a portion of our unsecured revolving line of credit.

The indenture, as supplemented (the Indenture), governing the Notes Due 2025 contains customary covenants and events of default. Pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, we are subject to various financial covenants, including the requirement to maintain the following: (i) maximum secured and total leverage ratios; (ii) a debt service coverage ratio; and (iii) maintenance of an unencumbered assets to unsecured debt ratio.

Notes Due 2021 and 2024

On June 30, 2014, we completed a private placement of $250,000 of unsecured notes, consisting of $100,000 of 4.12% senior unsecured notes due 2021 and $150,000 of 4.58% senior unsecured notes due 2024 (Notes Due 2021 and 2024). The proceeds were used to repay a portion of our unsecured revolving line of credit.

The note purchase agreement governing the Notes Due 2021 and 2024 contains customary representations, warranties and covenants, and events of default. Pursuant to the terms of the note purchase agreement, we are subject to various financial covenants, some of which are based upon the financial covenants in effect in our unsecured credit facility, including the requirement to maintain the following: (i) maximum unencumbered, secured and consolidated leverage ratios; (ii) minimum interest coverage and unencumbered interest coverage ratios; and (iii) a minimum consolidated net worth.

As of September 30, 2018, management believes we were in compliance with the financial covenants under the Indenture and the note purchase agreements.

Unsecured Term Loans and Revolving Line of Credit

Unsecured Credit Facility

On April 23, 2018, we entered into our fifth amended and restated unsecured credit agreement (Unsecured Credit Agreement) with a syndicate of financial institutions led by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association serving as syndication agent and KeyBank National Association serving as administrative agent to provide for an unsecured credit facility aggregating $1,100,000 (Unsecured Credit Facility). The Unsecured Credit Facility consists of an $850,000 unsecured revolving line of credit and a $250,000 unsecured term loan and is priced on a leverage grid at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread. In accordance with the Unsecured Credit Agreement, we may elect to convert to an investment grade pricing grid. As of September 30, 2018, making such an election would have resulted in a higher interest rate and, as such, we have not made the election to convert to an investment grade pricing grid.

The following table summarizes the key terms of the Unsecured Credit Facility:

				Leverage-Based Pricing		Investment Grade Pricing
Unsecured Credit Facility	Maturity Date	Extension Option	Extension Fee	Credit Spread	Facility Fee	Credit Spread	Facility Fee
$250,000 unsecured term loan	1/5/2021	N/A	N/A	1.20% - 1.70%	N/A	0.90% - 1.75%	N/A
$850,000 unsecured revolving line of credit	4/22/2022	2 six month	0.075%	1.05% - 1.50%	0.15% - 0.30%	0.825%-1.55%	0.125% - 0.30%

The Unsecured Credit Facility has a $500,000 accordion option that allows us, at our election, to increase the total Unsecured Credit Facility up to $1,600,000, subject to (i) customary fees and conditions including, but not limited to, the absence of an event of default as defined in the Unsecured Credit Agreement and (ii) our ability to obtain additional lender commitments.

The Unsecured Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants, and events of default. Pursuant to the terms of the Unsecured Credit Agreement, we are subject to various financial covenants, including the requirement to maintain the following: (i) maximum unencumbered, secured and consolidated leverage ratios; and (ii) minimum fixed charge and unencumbered interest coverage ratios. As of September 30, 2018, management believes we were in compliance with the financial covenants and default provisions under the Unsecured Credit Agreement.

As of September 30, 2018, we had letters of credit outstanding totaling $433 which serve as collateral for certain capital improvements at two of our properties and reduce the available borrowings on our unsecured revolving line of credit.

Term Loan Due 2023

On January 3, 2017, we received funding on a seven-year $200,000 unsecured term loan (Term Loan Due 2023) with a group of financial institutions, which closed during the year ended December 31, 2016. The Term Loan Due 2023 is priced on a leverage grid at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread. In accordance with the term loan agreement (Term Loan Agreement), we may elect to convert to an investment grade pricing grid. As of September 30, 2018, making such an election would have resulted in a higher interest rate and, as such, we have not made the election to convert to an investment grade pricing grid.

The following table summarizes the key terms of the Term Loan Due 2023:

Term Loan Due 2023	Maturity Date	Leverage-Based Pricing Credit Spread	Investment Grade Pricing Credit Spread
$200,000 unsecured term loan	11/22/2023	1.70% – 2.55%	1.50% – 2.45%

The Term Loan Due 2023 has a $100,000 accordion option that allows us, at our election, to increase the total unsecured term loan up to $300,000, subject to (i) customary fees and conditions, including the absence of an event of default as defined in the Term Loan Agreement and (ii) our ability to obtain additional lender commitments.

The Term Loan Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants, and events of default, including financial covenants that require us to maintain the following: (i) maximum unencumbered, secured and consolidated leverage ratios; and (ii) minimum fixed charge and unencumbered interest coverage ratios. As of September 30, 2018, management believes we were in compliance with the financial covenants and default provisions under the Term Loan Agreement.

(e) Represents interest rate as of September 30, 2018.

We plan on addressing our debt maturities through a combination of cash flows from operations, working capital, capital markets transactions and our unsecured revolving line of credit.

Distributions and Equity Transactions

Our distributions of current and accumulated earnings and profits for U.S. federal income tax purposes are taxable to shareholders, generally, as ordinary income. Distributions in excess of these earnings and profits generally are treated as a non-taxable reduction of the shareholders’ basis in the shares to the extent thereof (non-dividend distributions) and thereafter as taxable gain. We intend to continue to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code) generally requires that a REIT annually distributes to its shareholders at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding net capital gains. The Code imposes tax on any undistributed REIT taxable income.

To satisfy the requirements for qualification as a REIT and generally not be subject to U.S. federal income and excise tax, we intend to make regular quarterly distributions of all, or substantially all, of our taxable income to shareholders. Our future distributions will be at the discretion of our board of directors. When determining the amount of future distributions, we expect to consider, among other factors, (i) the amount of cash generated from our operating activities, (ii) our expectations of future cash flow, (iii) our determination of near-term cash needs for debt repayments and potential future share repurchases, (iv) the market of available acquisitions of new properties and redevelopment, expansions and pad development opportunities, (v) the timing of significant re-leasing activities and the establishment of additional cash reserves for anticipated tenant allowances and general property capital improvements, (vi) our ability to continue to access additional sources of capital, and (vii) the amount required to be distributed to maintain our status as a REIT, which is a requirement of our Unsecured Credit Agreement, and to avoid or

39

minimize any income and excise taxes that we otherwise would be required to pay. Under certain circumstances, we may be required to make distributions in excess of cash available for distribution in order to meet the REIT distribution requirements.

In December 2015, we entered into an at-the-market (ATM) equity program under which we may issue and sell shares of our Class A common stock, having an aggregate offering price of up to $250,000, from time to time. Actual sales may depend on a variety of factors, including, among others, market conditions and the trading price of our Class A common stock. Any net proceeds are expected to be used for general corporate purposes, which may include the funding of acquisitions and redevelopment activities and the repayment of debt, including our unsecured revolving line of credit. We did not sell any shares under our ATM equity program during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. As of September 30, 2018, we had Class A common shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $250,000 remaining available for sale under our ATM equity program.

In December 2015, our board of directors authorized a common stock repurchase program under which we may repurchase, from time to time, up to a maximum of $250,000 of shares of our Class A common stock. In December 2017, our board of directors authorized a $250,000 increase to the common stock repurchase program. The shares may be repurchased in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions and are canceled upon repurchase. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including price in absolute terms and in relation to the value of our assets, corporate and regulatory requirements, market conditions and other corporate liquidity requirements and priorities. The common stock repurchase program may be suspended or terminated at any time without prior notice. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, we repurchased 2,567 shares at an average price per share of $12.13 for a total of $31,194. These repurchases include 869 shares repurchased in September 2018 at an average price per share of $12.07 for a total of $10,513, which settled in October 2018. As of September 30, 2018, $232,863 remained available for repurchases under the common stock repurchase program.

Capital Expenditures and Redevelopment Activity

We anticipate that obligations related to capital improvements and redevelopments, including expansions and pad developments, can be met with cash flows from operations, working capital, capital markets transactions and our unsecured revolving line of credit.

We began redevelopment activities at Reisterstown Road Plaza and Circle East in 2016. We have invested a total of approximately $18,000 in these projects, which is net of proceeds of approximately $12,000 from the sale of air rights at the redevelopment portion of Circle East. These projects are at various stages of completion, and based on our current plans and estimates, we anticipate that it will require approximately $26,000 to $28,000 of additional funds to complete these projects. In addition, we plan to begin the redevelopment of existing multi-family rental units at Plaza del Lago in 2018, which we anticipate will require approximately $1,000.

We capitalized internal salaries and related benefits of personnel directly involved in capital upgrades and tenant improvements of $514 and $1,271 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, and $289 and $916 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. In addition, we capitalized internal leasing incentives of $71 and $241 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, and $98 and $287 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, all of which were incremental to signed leases.

We capitalized $499 and $1,463 of indirect project costs related to development projects during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, including, among other costs, $276 and $689 of internal salaries and related benefits of personnel directly involved in the development projects and $98 and $348 of interest, respectively. We capitalized $188 and $987 of indirect project costs related to development projects during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, including, among other costs, $87 and $338 of internal salaries and related benefits of personnel directly involved in the development projects and $150 and $316 of interest, respectively.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, we also received net proceeds of $155 from other transactions, including escrow funds related to a property disposition and a condemnation award.

Acquisitions

We did not acquire any properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The following table highlights our asset acquisitions during 2017:

	Number of Assets Acquired	Square Footage	Acquisition Price		Mortgage Debt
2017 Acquisitions (a)	10	443,800	$	202,915	$	—

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Cash flows from operating activities consist primarily of net income from property operations, adjusted for the following, among others: (i) depreciation and amortization, (ii) provision for impairment of investment properties and (iii) gain on sales of investment properties. Net cash provided by operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 decreased $37,508 primarily due to the following:

• a $35,386 decrease in NOI, consisting of a decrease in NOI from properties that were sold or held for sale in 2017 and 2018 and other properties not included in our same store portfolio of $40,192, partially offset by an increase in Same Store NOI of $4,806; and

• ordinary course fluctuations in working capital accounts;

partially offset by

• a $7,476 decrease in cash paid for leasing fees and inducements;

• a $5,054 decrease in cash paid for interest, excluding debt prepayment fees; and

41

• an $1,873 decrease in cash bonuses paid.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

Cash flows from investing activities consist primarily of proceeds from the sales of investment properties, net of cash paid to purchase investment properties and fund capital expenditures, tenant improvements and developments in progress. Net cash flows from investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 decreased $287,513 due to the following:

• a $437,352 decrease in proceeds from the sales of investment properties;

partially offset by

• a $146,710 decrease in cash paid to purchase investment properties;

• an $1,823 decrease in investment in developments in progress; and

• a $1,306 decrease in capital expenditures and tenant improvements.

For the remainder of 2018, we expect to (i) fund redevelopment, expansion and pad development activities, capital expenditures and tenant improvements and (ii) complete targeted acquisitions, including repurchases of our common stock, through cash flows generated from operations, working capital, capital markets transactions and our unsecured revolving line of credit.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Cash flows used in financing activities primarily consist of repayments of our unsecured revolving line of credit and unsecured term loans, distribution payments, principal payments on mortgages payable, debt prepayment costs, payment of loan fees and deposits, shares repurchased through our share repurchase program and the purchase of U.S. Treasury securities in connection with the defeasance of mortgages payable, partially offset by proceeds from our unsecured revolving line of credit and the issuance of debt instruments. Net cash flows used in financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 decreased $256,904 primarily due to the following:

• the $439,403 purchase of U.S. Treasury securities in connection with defeasance of the IW JV portfolio of mortgages payable during the nine months ended September 30, 2017;

• a $99,721 decrease in cash paid to repurchase common shares through our common share repurchase program;

• a $16,992 decrease in principal payments on mortgages payable;

• a $12,449 decrease in distributions paid as a result of a decrease in common shares outstanding due to the repurchase of common shares through our share repurchase program during 2017 and the redemption of our 7.00% Series A cumulative preferred stock in December 2017; and

• a $1,752 decrease in debt prepayment fees;

partially offset by

• a $200,000 decrease in proceeds from the issuance of unsecured term loans related to the funding of the Term Loan Due 2023 in January 2017;

• a $108,000 decrease in net proceeds from our unsecured revolving line of credit; and

• a $5,388 increase in the payment of loan fees and deposits.

We plan to continue to address our debt maturities through a combination of cash flows from operations, working capital, capital markets transactions and our unsecured revolving line of credit.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Contractual Obligations

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, except as otherwise disclosed herein, there were no material changes outside the normal course of business to the contractual obligations identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K contains a description of our critical accounting policies, including those relating to the acquisition of investment properties, impairment of long-lived assets, cost capitalization, depreciation and amortization, development and redevelopment, investment properties held for sale, partially-owned entities, revenue recognition, accounts and notes receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts and income taxes. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, there were no significant changes to these policies except for the policies related to the derecognition of nonfinancial assets and in substance nonfinancial assets, including real estate, and the recognition of the related gain on sale of investment properties as a result of the adoption of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and ASU 2017-05, Other Income–Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets, as of January 1, 2018 as described in Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 4 – Dispositions in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein regarding recently issued accounting pronouncements.

Subsequent Events

Subsequent to September 30, 2018, we:

• repurchased 1,526 shares at an average price per share of $12.11 for a total of $18,509, resulting in $214,354 remaining available under our $500,000 common stock repurchase program; and

• declared the cash dividend for the fourth quarter of 2018 of $0.165625 per share on our outstanding Class A common stock, which will be paid on January 10, 2019 to Class A common shareholders of record at the close of business on December 27, 2018.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We may be exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of our long-term debt that is used to maintain liquidity and fund our operations. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve our objectives, we borrow primarily at fixed rates, and in some cases variable rates with the ability to convert to fixed rates.

With regard to variable rate financing, we assess interest rate cash flow risk by continually identifying and monitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact expected future cash flows and by evaluating hedging opportunities. We maintain risk management control systems to monitor interest rate cash flow risk attributable to both our outstanding or forecasted debt obligations as well as our potential offsetting hedge positions. The risk management control systems involve the use of analytical techniques, including cash flow sensitivity analysis, to estimate the expected impact of changes in interest rates on our future cash flows.

As of September 30, 2018, we had $450,000 of variable rate debt based on LIBOR that has been swapped to fixed rate debt through interest rate swaps. Our interest rate swaps as of September 30, 2018 are summarized in the following table:

	Notional Amount		Maturity Date	Fair Value of Derivative Asset
Fixed rate portion of Unsecured Credit Facility	$	250,000	January 5, 2021	$	4,590
Term Loan Due 2023	200,000		November 22, 2023 (a)	972
	$	450,000		$	5,562

(a) As of September 30, 2018, we had two interest rate swap agreements with a total notional amount of $200,000 that mature on November 22, 2018. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, we entered into two forward-starting agreements to swap the same notional amount, which will be effective November 23, 2018 through November 22, 2023.

For a discussion concerning the scheduled debt maturities and principal amortization of our indebtedness as of September 30, 2018 for the remainder of 2018, each of the next four years and thereafter and the weighted average interest rates by year to evaluate the expected cash flows and sensitivity to interest rate changes, refer to Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements and “Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Liquidity and Capital Resources — Debt Maturities.”

A decrease of 1% in market interest rates would result in a hypothetical decrease in our derivative asset of approximately $15,029.

The combined carrying amount of our mortgages payable, unsecured notes payable, Term Loan Due 2023 and Unsecured Credit Facility is approximately $16,402 higher than the fair value as of September 30, 2018.

We had $209,000 of variable rate debt, excluding $450,000 of variable rate debt that has been swapped to fixed rate debt, with an interest rate based upon LIBOR of 3.29% as of September 30, 2018. An increase in the variable interest rate on this debt constitutes a market risk. If interest rates increase by 1% based on debt outstanding as of September 30, 2018, interest expense would increase by approximately $2,090 on an annualized basis.

We may use additional derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to changes in interest rates. To the extent we do, we are exposed to market and credit risk. Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of a financial instrument that results from a change in interest rates. The market risk associated with interest rate contracts is managed by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken. Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. When the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty owes us, which creates credit risk for us. When the fair value of a derivative contract is negative, we owe the counterparty and, therefore, we generally are not exposed to the credit risk of the counterparty. We minimize credit risk in derivative instruments by entering into transactions with highly rated counterparties or with the same party providing the financing, with the right of offset.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We have established disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to us, including our consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to the officers who certify our financial reports and to the members of senior management and the board of directors.

Based on management’s evaluation as of September 30, 2018, our Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There were no changes to our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Organization and Basis of Presentation

ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Retail Properties of America, Inc. (the Company) was formed on March 5, 2003 and its primary purpose is to own and operate high quality, strategically located open-air shopping centers, including properties with a mixed-use component. As of September 30, 2018, the Company owned 105 retail operating properties in the United States.

The Company has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (REIT) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). The Company believes it qualifies for taxation as a REIT and, as such, the Company generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on taxable income that is distributed to its shareholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income, property or net worth and U.S. federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. The Company has one wholly-owned subsidiary that has jointly elected to be treated as a taxable REIT subsidiary (TRS) and is subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes at regular corporate tax rates. The income tax expense incurred by the TRS did not have a material impact on the Company’s accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. For example, significant estimates and assumptions have been made with respect to useful lives of assets, capitalization of development costs, fair value measurements, provision for impairment, including estimates of holding periods, capitalization rates and discount rates (where applicable), provision for income taxes, recoverable amounts of receivables, deferred taxes and initial valuations and related amortization periods of deferred costs and intangibles, particularly with respect to property acquisitions. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

All share amounts and dollar amounts in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, are stated in thousands with the exception of per share amounts and per square foot amounts.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, as well as all wholly-owned subsidiaries and any consolidated variable interest entities (VIEs). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Wholly-owned subsidiaries generally consist of limited liability companies, limited partnerships and statutory trusts.

The Company’s property ownership as of September 30, 2018 is summarized below:

	Property Count
Retail operating properties	105
Redevelopment projects:
Reisterstown Road Plaza	1
Circle East – redevelopment portion (a)	—
Carillon (b)	1
Total number of wholly-owned properties	107

(a) This portion of the property was formerly known as Towson Circle and the operating portion, which was formerly known as Towson Square, is included within the property count for retail operating properties.

(b) The Company has begun activities in anticipation of future redevelopment of this property, which was formerly known as Boulevard at the Capital Centre.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Refer to the Company’s 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K for a summary of its significant accounting policies. Except as disclosed below, there have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies in the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, on a modified retrospective basis. This new guidance replaces existing revenue recognition standards. The core principle of this standard is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue follows the existing leasing guidance and is not impacted by the adoption of this standard, however, the sale of investment property is required to follow the new guidance as well as ASU 2017-05, Other Income–Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets discussed below. The sale of investment property is reported as “gain on sales of investment properties” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive income (loss) and further discussed in Note 4 – Dispositions. The adoption of ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as substantially all of its revenue falls outside of the scope of this guidance.

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2017-05, Other Income–Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets, on a modified retrospective basis. This new pronouncement, which adds guidance for partial sales of nonfinancial assets and clarifies the scope of Subtopic 610-20, Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets, applies to the derecognition of all nonfinancial assets (including real estate) for which the counterparty is not a customer. The sale of investment property is reported as “gain on sales of investment properties” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive income (loss) and further discussed in Note 4 – Dispositions. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as the adoption of the new guidance did not result in a change to the timing or amount of gain recognized upon disposition as compared to the previous guidance.

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall,on a prospective basis. This new guidance requires companies to disclose the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities measured at amortized cost in accordance with the exit price notion, which is consistent with the Company’s existing practices, and no longer requires disclosure of the methods and significant assumptions used, including any changes, to estimate fair value. In addition, companies are required to disclose all financial assets and financial liabilities grouped by (i) measurement category and (ii) form of financial instrument. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company elected to early adopt ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging, as of January 1, 2018. This new guidance amends the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results in an entity’s financial statements. It also eliminates the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness. Entities are now required to present the earnings effect of the hedging instrument in the same income statement line item in which they report the earnings effect of the hedged item. In addition, entities may perform the initial quantitative assessment of hedge effectiveness at any time after hedge designation, but no later than the first quarterly effectiveness testing date, and subsequent assessments of hedge effectiveness may be performed qualitatively unless facts and circumstances change. Disclosure requirements have been modified to include a tabular disclosure related to the effect of hedging instruments on the income statement and the requirement to disclose the ineffective portion of the change in fair value of such instruments has been eliminated. The adoption of this pronouncement resulted in a cumulative effect adjustment of $12 to accumulated other comprehensive income and accumulated distributions in excess of earnings related to eliminating the separate measurement of ineffectiveness. The amended presentation and disclosure guidance is required only prospectively.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. This new guidance is effective January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The pronouncement will require lessees to recognize a liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use (ROU) asset, initially measured at the present value of lease payments, for both operating and financing leases. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, lessees will be permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset to not recognize lease liabilities and lease assets. The guidance allows lessors to make an accounting policy election, by class of underlying asset, to not separate non-lease components from lease components if certain requirements are met but requires lessors to recognize real estate tax expense and recovery income for tenants that self-pay real estate taxes. The guidance also provides an optional transition method which would allow entities to initially apply the new guidance in the period of adoption, recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings, if necessary, and provides a package of three practical expedients whereby companies will not be required to reassess (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) the lease classification (operating vs. capital/financing leases) for any expired or existing leases and (iii) initial direct costs for any existing leases (Package of Three Practical Expedients).

Upon adoption, the Company will recognize a lease liability and an ROU asset for operating leases where it is the lessee, such as ground leases and office leases. The Company is in the process of evaluating the inputs required to calculate the amounts that will be recorded on its balance sheet for each lease. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, the Company expects to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset to not recognize lease liabilities and lease assets. For leases where it is the lessor, the Company expects that accounting for lease components will be largely unchanged from existing GAAP and to elect the practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from lease components. The Company also expects to record real estate tax expense and tenant recovery income, as well as real estate tax payables and recovery receivables, for tenants that pay real estate taxes directly to the taxing authorities. This will gross-up the Company’s statement of operations and balance sheet but will have no net impact on the Company’s net income attributable to common shareholders and no impact to its cash flows. Only incremental direct leasing costs may be capitalized under the new guidance, which is consistent with the Company’s existing policies. The Company expects to adopt this new guidance on January 1, 2019, apply the requirements as of that date and elect the Package of Three Practical Expedients. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of this guidance until it becomes effective, but the Company does not expect the guidance regarding capitalization of leasing costs will have any effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2018, the SEC issued a final rule, Inline XBRL Filing of Tagged Data, which will require the use of the Inline eXtensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL) format for the submission of operating company financial statement information. In addition, the final rule will eliminate the requirement for operating companies to post “Interactive Data Files” (i.e., machine-readable computer code that presents information in XBRL format) on their websites. Large accelerated filers that prepare their financial statements in accordance with GAAP will be subject to Inline XBRL requirements beginning with the fiscal period ending on or after June 15, 2019. The Company expects to use Inline XBRL starting with its Form 10-Q for the quarter ending June 30, 2019.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. This new guidance is effective January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted beginning January 1, 2019, and replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. Financial assets that are measured at amortized cost will be required to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected with an allowance for credit losses deducted from the amortized cost basis. In addition, an entity must consider broader information in developing its expected credit loss estimate, including the use of forecasted information. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the FASB issued a proposed ASU, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, which, if adopted, would clarify that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of this new guidance. Generally, the pronouncement requires a modified retrospective method of adoption. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of this guidance until it becomes effective.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement. This new guidance is effective January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted, and provides new, and in some cases eliminates or modifies the existing disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. Public entities will now be required to disclose the following: (i) the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and (ii) the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. In addition, public entities will no longer be required to disclose the following: (i) the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, (ii) the policy for timing of transfers between levels and (iii) the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. The new pronouncement also clarifies and modifies certain existing provisions to promote the appropriate exercise of discretion by entities when considering fair value measurement disclosures and clarifies that materiality is an appropriate consideration when evaluating disclosure requirements. As permitted by the new pronouncement, the Company has removed the discussion of its valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements in this Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2018. No other disclosures were removed as the Company did not have any transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the current and comparative periods. The Company expects to adopt the new disclosures on a prospective basis as of January 1, 2020.

				331,400	$	147,586	(d)

(a) This property was acquired through two consolidated VIEs and was used to facilitate an Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 tax-deferred exchange (1031 Exchange).

(b) The wholly-owned multi-tenant retail operating property formerly known as Boulevard at the Capital Centre, which is located in Largo, Maryland, was previously subject to an approximately 70 acre long-term ground lease with a third party. The Company completed a transaction whereby it received the fee interest in approximately 50 acres of the underlying land in exchange for which (i) the Company paid $1,939 and (ii) the term of the ground lease with respect to the remaining approximately 20 acres was shortened to nine months. The Company derecognized building and improvements of $11,347 related to the remaining ground lease, recognized the fair value of land received of $15,200 and recorded a deferred gain of $2,524 as of September 30, 2017, which was recognized during the three months ended December 31, 2017 upon the expiration of the ground lease on approximately 20 acres. The total number of properties in the Company’s portfolio was not affected by this transaction.

(c) The Company acquired the remaining five phases under contract, including the development rights for an additional 123 residential units for a total of 408 units, at its One Loudoun Downtown multi-tenant retail operating property, which were accounted for as asset acquisitions. The total number of properties in the Company’s portfolio was not affected by these transactions.

(d) Acquisition price does not include capitalized closing costs and adjustments totaling $2,190.

The following table summarizes the acquisition date values, before prorations, the Company recorded in conjunction with the acquisitions discussed above:

	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017
Land	$	38,833
Building and other improvements, net	108,401
Acquired lease intangible assets (a)	11,139
Acquired lease intangible liabilities (b)	(7,521		)
Other liabilities	(1,076		)
Net assets acquired	$	149,776

(a) The weighted average amortization period for acquired lease intangible assets is seven years for acquisitions completed during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

(b) The weighted average amortization period for acquired lease intangible liabilities is 13 years for acquisitions completed during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

The above acquisitions were funded using a combination of available cash on hand, proceeds from dispositions and proceeds from the Company’s unsecured revolving line of credit. All of the acquisitions completed during 2017 were considered asset acquisitions and, as such, transaction costs were capitalized upon closing.

Variable Interest Entities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company entered into an agreement with a qualified intermediary related to a 1031 Exchange. The Company loaned $87,452 to the VIEs to acquire Main Street Promenade on January 13, 2017. The 1031 Exchange was completed during the year ended December 31, 2017 and, in accordance with applicable provisions of the Code, within 180 days after the acquisition date of the property. At the completion of the 1031 Exchange, the sole membership interests of the VIEs were assigned to the Company in satisfaction of the outstanding loan, resulting in the entities being wholly owned by the Company and no longer considered VIEs.

Prior to the completion of the 1031 Exchange, the Company was deemed to be the primary beneficiary of each VIE as it had the ability to direct the activities of the VIEs that most significantly impact their economic performance and had all of the risks and rewards of ownership. Accordingly, the Company consolidated the VIEs. No value or income was attributed to the noncontrolling interest. The assets of the VIEs consisted of the investment property, Main Street Promenade, which was operated by the Company.

Dispositions

DISPOSITIONS

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and ASU 2017-05, Other Income–Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets on a modified retrospective basis. The dispositions completed during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 were not considered to be contracts with customers as defined in ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as they are not considered an output of the Company’s ordinary business activities. Rather, the dispositions follow the new guidance of ASU 2017-05, Other Income–Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets. The adoption on a modified retrospective basis requires the guidance and related disclosure requirements of ASU 2017-05 to be followed for contracts related to the sale of investment properties completed during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Disclosures related to periods prior to January 1, 2018 for the sale of investment properties are not impacted by the adoption.

Under the new guidance, derecognition of nonfinancial assets and in substance nonfinancial assets, including real estate, and the related gains on sale of investment properties are recognized when (i) the parties to the sale contract have approved the contract and are committed to perform their respective obligations; (ii) the Company can identify each party’s rights regarding the property transferred; (iii) the Company can identify the payment terms for the property transferred; (iv) the contract has commercial substance (that is, the risk, timing or amount of the entity’s future cash flows is expected to change as a result of the contract); and (v) the Company has satisfied its performance obligations by transferring control of the property. Typically, the timing of payment and satisfaction of performance obligations occur simultaneously on the disposition date upon transfer of the property’s ownership.

The Company closed on the following dispositions during the nine months ended September 30, 2018:

Date	Property Name	Property Type	Square Footage	Consideration		Aggregate Proceeds, Net (a)		Gain

(a) Aggregate proceeds are net of transaction costs, as well as capital and tenant-related costs credited to the buyer at close, as applicable, and exclude $169 of condemnation proceeds, which did not result in any additional gain recognition.

(b) The Company repaid a $10,750 mortgage payable in conjunction with the disposition of the property.

(c) The Company recorded an additional gain on sale of $1,407 during the three months ended September 30, 2018 upon satisfaction of performance obligations associated with escrow agreements executed upon disposition of the property.

(d) The terms of the disposition of Stony Creek I and Stony Creek II were negotiated as a single transaction.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company also received net proceeds of $11,820 and recognized a gain of $2,179 in connection with the sale of air rights at the redevelopment portion of Circle East. In addition, the Company received net proceeds of $1,789 and recognized a gain of $1,285 in connection with the first phase of the sale of a land parcel, which included rights to develop eight residential units, at One Loudoun Downtown, a multi-tenant retail operating property located in Ashburn, Virginia. The aggregate proceeds from the property dispositions and other transactions during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 totaled $190,321, with aggregate gains of $37,211.

Unsecured Credit Facility

On April 23, 2018, the Company entered into its fifth amended and restated unsecured credit agreement (Unsecured Credit Agreement) with a syndicate of financial institutions led by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association serving as syndication agent and KeyBank National Association serving as administrative agent to provide for an unsecured credit facility aggregating $1,100,000 (Unsecured Credit Facility). The Unsecured Credit Facility consists of an $850,000 unsecured revolving line of credit and a $250,000 unsecured term loan and is priced on a leverage grid at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread. In accordance with the Unsecured Credit Agreement, the Company may elect to convert to an investment grade pricing grid. As of September 30, 2018, making such an election would have resulted in a higher interest rate and, as such, the Company has not made the election to convert to an investment grade pricing grid.

The following table summarizes the key terms of the Unsecured Credit Facility:

				Leverage-Based Pricing		Investment Grade Pricing
Unsecured Credit Facility	Maturity Date	Extension Option	Extension Fee	Credit Spread	Facility Fee	Credit Spread	Facility Fee
$250,000 unsecured term loan	1/5/2021	N/A	N/A	1.20% - 1.70%	N/A	0.90% - 1.75%	N/A

The Unsecured Credit Facility has a $500,000 accordion option that allows the Company, at its election, to increase the total Unsecured Credit Facility up to $1,600,000, subject to (i) customary fees and conditions including, but not limited to, the absence of an event of default as defined in the Unsecured Credit Agreement and (ii) the Company’s ability to obtain additional lender commitments.

The Unsecured Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants, and events of default. Pursuant to the terms of the Unsecured Credit Agreement, the Company is subject to various financial covenants, including the requirement to maintain the following: (i) maximum unencumbered, secured and consolidated leverage ratios; and (ii) minimum fixed charge and unencumbered interest coverage ratios. As of September 30, 2018, management believes the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants and default provisions under the Unsecured Credit Agreement.

The Company previously had a $1,200,000 unsecured credit facility that consisted of the following: (i) a $750,000 unsecured revolving line of credit that bore interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread ranging from 1.35% to 2.25% and was scheduled to mature on January 5, 2020; (ii) a $250,000 unsecured term loan that bore interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread ranging from 1.30% to 2.20% and was scheduled to mature on January 5, 2021; and (iii) a $200,000 unsecured term loan that bore interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread ranging from 1.45% to 2.20% and was scheduled to mature on May 11, 2018. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company repaid $100,000 of the unsecured term loan due 2018 and in conjunction with the execution of the Unsecured Credit Agreement in 2018, the Company repaid the remaining $100,000 balance of the unsecured term loan due 2018.

Term Loan Due 2023

On January 3, 2017, the Company received funding on a seven-year $200,000 unsecured term loan (Term Loan Due 2023) with a group of financial institutions, which closed during the year ended December 31, 2016. The Term Loan Due 2023 is priced on a leverage grid at a rate of LIBOR plus a credit spread. In accordance with the term loan agreement (Term Loan Agreement), the Company may elect to convert to an investment grade pricing grid. As of September 30, 2018, making such an election would have resulted in a higher interest rate and, as such, the Company has not made the election to convert to an investment grade pricing grid.

The following table summarizes the key terms of the Term Loan Due 2023:

Term Loan Due 2023	Maturity Date	Leverage-Based Pricing Credit Spread	Investment Grade Pricing Credit Spread
$200,000 unsecured term loan	11/22/2023	1.70% – 2.55%	1.50% – 2.45%

The Term Loan Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants, and events of default, including financial covenants that require the Company to maintain the following: (i) maximum unencumbered, secured and consolidated leverage ratios; and (ii) minimum fixed charge and unencumbered interest coverage ratios.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivatives

DERIVATIVES

The Company elected to early adopt ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging, as of January 1, 2018. The adoption eliminated the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness. The Company is now required to present the earnings effect of its hedging instruments in the same income statement line item in which it reports the earnings effect of the hedged items. Disclosures related to periods prior to January 1, 2018 are not impacted by the adoption.

The Company’s objective in using interest rate derivatives is to manage its exposure to interest rate movements and add stability to interest expense. To accomplish this objective, the Company uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed rate payments over the life of the agreement without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

As of September 30, 2018, the Company used five interest rate swaps to hedge the variable cash flows associated with variable rate debt. Changes in fair value of the derivatives that are designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded in “Accumulated other comprehensive income” and are reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable rate debt. Over the next 12 months, the Company estimates that an additional $1,509 will be reclassified as a decrease to interest expense. Prior to January 1, 2018, only the effective portion of changes in fair value of the derivatives that were designated and that qualified as cash flow hedges was recorded in “Accumulated other comprehensive income” and the ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives was recognized directly in earnings.

The following table summarizes the Company’s interest rate swaps in effect as of September 30, 2018, which effectively convert one-month floating rate LIBOR to a fixed rate:

Effective Date	Notional		Fixed Interest Rate		Maturity Date
January 3, 2017	$	100,000	1.26	%	November 22, 2018 (a)
January 3, 2017	$	100,000	1.26	%	November 22, 2018 (a)
December 29, 2017	$	100,000	2.00	%	January 5, 2021
December 29, 2017	$	100,000	2.00	%	January 5, 2021
December 29, 2017	$	50,000	2.00	%	January 5, 2021

(a) During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company entered into two forward-starting agreements to swap a total of $200,000 of LIBOR-based variable rate debt to a fixed interest rate of 2.85%, which will be effective on November 23, 2018 and mature on November 22, 2023.

The following table summarizes the Company’s interest rate swaps that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk:

	Number of Instruments in Effect		Notional

Equity

EQUITY

In December 2015, the Company entered into an at-the-market (ATM) equity program under which it may issue and sell shares of its Class A common stock, having an aggregate offering price of up to $250,000, from time to time. Actual sales may depend on a variety of factors, including, among others, market conditions and the trading price of the Company’s Class A common stock. Any net proceeds are expected to be used for general corporate purposes, which may include the funding of acquisitions and redevelopment activities and the repayment of debt, including the Company’s unsecured revolving line of credit. The Company did not sell any shares under its ATM equity program during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. As of September 30, 2018, the Company had Class A common shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $250,000 remaining available for sale under its ATM equity program.

In December 2015, the Company’s board of directors authorized a common stock repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase, from time to time, up to a maximum of $250,000 of shares of its Class A common stock. In December 2017, the Company’s board of directors authorized a $250,000 increase to the common stock repurchase program. The shares may be repurchased in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions and are canceled upon repurchase. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including price in absolute terms and in relation to the value of the Company’s assets, corporate and regulatory requirements, market conditions and other corporate liquidity requirements and priorities. The common stock repurchase program may be suspended or terminated at any time without prior notice.

The following table presents activity under the Company’s common stock repurchase program during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017:

	Number of Common Shares Repurchased	Average Price per Share		Total Repurchases

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following table presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of the Company’s financial instruments:

	September 30, 2018				December 31, 2017
	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value
Financial assets:
Derivative asset	$	5,562	$	5,562	$	1,086	$	1,086
Financial liabilities:
Mortgages payable, net	$	206,104	$	206,546	$	287,068	$	298,635
Unsecured notes payable, net	$	696,209	$	672,108	$	695,748	$	693,823
Unsecured term loans, net	$	447,750	$	455,007	$	547,270	$	552,555
Unsecured revolving line of credit	$	209,000	$	209,000	$	216,000	$	216,222

The carrying value of the derivative asset is included in “Other assets, net” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The following table presents the Company’s financial instruments, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall. Methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of these instruments are described after the table.

	Fair Value
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
September 30, 2018
Derivative asset	$	—	$	5,562	$	—	$	5,562
December 31, 2017
Derivative asset	$	—	$	1,086	$	—	$	1,086

Derivative asset:  The fair value of the derivative asset is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected future cash flows of each derivative. This analysis uses observable market data including forward yield curves and implied volatilities to determine the market’s expectation of the future cash flows of the variable component. The fixed and variable components of the derivative are then discounted using calculated discount factors developed based on the LIBOR swap rate and are aggregated to arrive at a single valuation for the period. The Company also incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives use Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. However, as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, 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. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company has considered any applicable credit enhancements. The Company’s derivative instruments are further described in Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company did not remeasure any assets to fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of September 30, 2018. The following table presents the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of December 31, 2017, aggregated by the level within the fair value hierarchy in which those measurements fall. The table includes information related to properties remeasured to fair value as a result of impairment charges recorded during the year ended December 31, 2017, except for those properties sold prior to December 31, 2017. Methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of these assets are described after the table.

	Fair Value
	Level 1		Level 2			Level 3		Total		Provision for Impairment (a)
December 31, 2017
Investment properties	$	—	$	74,250	(b)	$	—	$	74,250	$	50,077

(a) Excludes impairment charges recorded on investment properties sold prior to December 31, 2017.

(b) Represents the fair value of the Company’s Schaumburg Towers and Home Depot Plaza investment properties. The estimated fair value of Schaumburg Towers was based on an expected sales price of $87,600 from a bona fide purchase offer, determined to be a Level 2 input, which contemplates historically deferred maintenance and capital requirements. The estimated fair value of $58,000 as of September 30, 2017, the date the asset was measured at fair value, reflects (i) capital expenditures expected to be incurred by the Company prior to sale and (ii) tenant-related costs expected to be credited to the buyer at close. The estimated fair value of Home Depot Plaza of $16,250 as of December 31, 2017, the date the asset was measured at fair value, was based upon the expected sales price for an executed sales contract and determined to be a Level 2 input.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

Sep. 30, 2018

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. This new guidance is effective January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The pronouncement will require lessees to recognize a liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use (ROU) asset, initially measured at the present value of lease payments, for both operating and financing leases. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, lessees will be permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset to not recognize lease liabilities and lease assets. The guidance allows lessors to make an accounting policy election, by class of underlying asset, to not separate non-lease components from lease components if certain requirements are met but requires lessors to recognize real estate tax expense and recovery income for tenants that self-pay real estate taxes. The guidance also provides an optional transition method which would allow entities to initially apply the new guidance in the period of adoption, recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings, if necessary, and provides a package of three practical expedients whereby companies will not be required to reassess (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) the lease classification (operating vs. capital/financing leases) for any expired or existing leases and (iii) initial direct costs for any existing leases (Package of Three Practical Expedients).

Upon adoption, the Company will recognize a lease liability and an ROU asset for operating leases where it is the lessee, such as ground leases and office leases. The Company is in the process of evaluating the inputs required to calculate the amounts that will be recorded on its balance sheet for each lease. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, the Company expects to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset to not recognize lease liabilities and lease assets. For leases where it is the lessor, the Company expects that accounting for lease components will be largely unchanged from existing GAAP and to elect the practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from lease components. The Company also expects to record real estate tax expense and tenant recovery income, as well as real estate tax payables and recovery receivables, for tenants that pay real estate taxes directly to the taxing authorities. This will gross-up the Company’s statement of operations and balance sheet but will have no net impact on the Company’s net income attributable to common shareholders and no impact to its cash flows. Only incremental direct leasing costs may be capitalized under the new guidance, which is consistent with the Company’s existing policies. The Company expects to adopt this new guidance on January 1, 2019, apply the requirements as of that date and elect the Package of Three Practical Expedients. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of this guidance until it becomes effective, but the Company does not expect the guidance regarding capitalization of leasing costs will have any effect on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2018, the SEC issued a final rule, Inline XBRL Filing of Tagged Data, which will require the use of the Inline eXtensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL) format for the submission of operating company financial statement information. In addition, the final rule will eliminate the requirement for operating companies to post “Interactive Data Files” (i.e., machine-readable computer code that presents information in XBRL format) on their websites. Large accelerated filers that prepare their financial statements in accordance with GAAP will be subject to Inline XBRL requirements beginning with the fiscal period ending on or after June 15, 2019. The Company expects to use Inline XBRL starting with its Form 10-Q for the quarter ending June 30, 2019.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. This new guidance is effective January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted beginning January 1, 2019, and replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. Financial assets that are measured at amortized cost will be required to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected with an allowance for credit losses deducted from the amortized cost basis. In addition, an entity must consider broader information in developing its expected credit loss estimate, including the use of forecasted information. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the FASB issued a proposed ASU, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, which, if adopted, would clarify that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of this new guidance. Generally, the pronouncement requires a modified retrospective method of adoption. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of this guidance until it becomes effective.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement. This new guidance is effective January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted, and provides new, and in some cases eliminates or modifies the existing disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. Public entities will now be required to disclose the following: (i) the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period and (ii) the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. In addition, public entities will no longer be required to disclose the following: (i) the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, (ii) the policy for timing of transfers between levels and (iii) the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. The new pronouncement also clarifies and modifies certain existing provisions to promote the appropriate exercise of discretion by entities when considering fair value measurement disclosures and clarifies that materiality is an appropriate consideration when evaluating disclosure requirements. As permitted by the new pronouncement, the Company has removed the discussion of its valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements in this Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2018. No other disclosures were removed as the Company did not have any transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the current and comparative periods. The Company expects to adopt the new disclosures on a prospective basis as of January 1, 2020.
