Healthcare Realty Trust Incorporated

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2019

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Business Overview

Healthcare Realty Trust Incorporated (the "Company") is a real estate investment trust ("REIT") that owns, leases, manages, acquires, finances, develops and redevelops income-producing real estate properties associated primarily with the delivery of outpatient healthcare services throughout the United States. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had gross investments of approximately $4.2 billion in 204 real estate properties located in 26 states totaling approximately 15.4 million square feet. The Company provided leasing and property management services to approximately 11.2 million square feet nationwide.

Basis of Presentation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed herein, management believes there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

This interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Management believes that all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. In addition, the interim financial information does not necessarily represent or indicate what the operating results will be for the year ending December 31, 2019 for many reasons including, but not limited to, acquisitions, dispositions, capital financing transactions, changes in interest rates and the effects of other trends, risks and uncertainties.

Use of Estimates in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)

The Company recognizes certain revenue under the core principle of Topic 606. This requires an entity to recognize 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. Lease revenue is not within the scope of Topic 606. To achieve the core principle, the Company applies the five step model specified in the guidance.

Revenue that is accounted for under Topic 606 is segregated on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in the Other operating line item. This line item includes parking income, rental lease guaranty income, management fee income and other miscellaneous income. Below is a detail of the amounts by category:

(in thousands)	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
Type of Revenue	2019		2018		2019		2018
Parking income	$	1,935	$	1,752	$	5,538	$	5,197
Rental lease guaranty	—		168		128		488
Management fee income	69		68		201		205
Miscellaneous	55		22		120		83
	$	2,059	$	2,010	$	5,987	$	5,973

The Company’s three major types of revenue that are accounted for under Topic 606 that are listed above are all accounted for as the performance obligation is satisfied. The performance obligations that are identified for each of these items are satisfied over time, and the Company recognizes revenue monthly based on this principle.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, No. 2018-01 and No. 2018-11

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases." In January 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-01, "Leases - Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842," in July 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-10, "Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases" and ASU 2018-11, "Leases - Targeted Improvements," and in December 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-20, “Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors.” These accounting standard updates are collectively referred to as "Topic 842."

Topic 842 provides several practical expedients that the Company elected. These are (a) the package of practical expedients offered that allows an entity not to reassess upon adoption (i) whether an expired or existing contract contains a lease, (ii) lease classification related to expired or existing lease arrangements, and (iii) whether costs incurred on expired or existing leases qualify as initial direct costs, (b) the lessor practical expedient not to separate certain non-lease components, such as common area maintenance, from the lease component if (i) the timing and pattern of transfer are the same for the non-lease component and associated lease component, and (ii) the lease component would be classified as an operating lease if accounted for separately and (c) the lessee practical expedient not to separate certain non-lease components from the associated lease component.

For lessees, the new standard establishes a right-of-use ("ROU") model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases are classified as either finance or operating, with the classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The Company's ground leases executed or assumed prior to the adoption of Topic 842 continue to be accounted for as operating leases and will not result in a materially different ground lease expense. However, each ground lease executed by the Company after the adoption of Topic 842 will be evaluated to determine if it is an operating or finance lease. If the lease is to be accounted for as a finance lease, ground lease expense would be accounted for using the effective interest method instead of the straight-line method over the term of the lease, which would result in higher ground lease expense in the earlier years of a ground lease when compared to the straight-line method. Leases in which the Company is the lessee are primarily ground leases, but also includes management office leases in third party buildings and certain copier and postage machine leases. The terms of the ground leases generally range from 40 to 99 years with a weighted average lease term remaining of 52.5 years, excluding renewal options. The Company's discount rates, which approximates the Company's incremental borrowing rate, ranged from 3.4% for leases expiring in 2019 to 6.2% for leases expiring in 2115. The Company utilized a third party to assist in determining the discount rates for its ground leases. The discount rates consider the general economic environment and factor in various financing and asset specific adjustments so that the discount rate is appropriate for the intended use of the underlying lease. As of January 1, 2019, the Company recognized the present value of its lease payments and a corresponding lease liability of $91.7 million. In addition, the Company reclassified $45.0 million of prepaid ground leases and below-market lease intangibles from the Other assets line item, $1.9 million of above-market lease intangibles from the Other liabilities line and $8.4 million of straight-line rent from the Accounts payable and accrued liabilities line item to the Operating lease right-of-use assets line item on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

For lessors, the new standard requires a lessor to classify leases as either sales-type, direct-financing or operating. A lease will be treated as a sale if it is considered to transfer control of the underlying asset to the lessee. A lease will be classified as direct-financing if risks and rewards are conveyed without the transfer of control. Otherwise, the lease is treated as an operating lease. Lessor accounting remains largely unchanged with some exceptions including the concept of separating lease and nonlease components. Nonlease components, such as common area maintenance, are generally accounted for under Topic 606 and separated from the lease payments. However, the Company elected the lessor practical expedient allowing the Company to not separate these components when certain conditions are met. The combined component is accounted for under Topic 842. Lease related receivables, which include accounts receivable and accrued straight-line rent receivables, are reduced for revenue reserves and are recognized as a reduction to rental income. The adoption of Topic 842, where the Company is the lessor, did not have a material impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

The new standard was effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. Topic 842 provides two transition alternatives. The Company elected to choose the prospective optional transition method available to apply the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 840 in the comparative periods presented in the year Topic 842 was adopted. Topic 842 includes extensive quantitative and qualitative disclosures as compared to Topic 840, Leases, for both lessees and lessors. See Note 3 to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional disclosures.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13 and No. 2018-19

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." This update is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recognition of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments that are not accounted for at fair value through net income, including loans held for investment, held-to-maturity debt securities, trade and other receivables, net investment in leases and other such commitments. This update requires that financial statement assets measured at an amortized cost and certain other financial instruments be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, through an allowance for credit losses that is deducted from the amortized cost basis. ASU 2018-19 also clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of this topic. Instead, impairment of these receivables should be accounted for in accordance with Topic 842, Leases. This standard is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact from the adoption of this new standard on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-04

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, "Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment." This update eliminates Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. As such, an entity will perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize a goodwill impairment charge for the amount by which the reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds its fair value. This standard is effective for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company does not expect a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes from the adoption of this standard.

Note 3. Leases

Lessor Accounting Under ASC 842

The Company’s properties generally are leased pursuant to non-cancelable, fixed-term operating leases with expiration dates through 2036. Some leases provide for fixed rent renewal terms in addition to market rent renewal terms. Some leases provide the lessee, during the term of the lease, with an option or right of first refusal to purchase the leased property. The Company’s portfolio of single-tenant net leases generally requires the lessee to pay minimum rent and all taxes (including property tax), insurance, maintenance and other operating costs associated with the leased property.

The Company's leases typically have escalators that are either based on a stated percentage or an index such as CPI (consumer price index). In addition, most of the Company's leases include nonlease components such as reimbursement of operating expenses as additional rent or include the reimbursement of expected operating expenses as part of the lease payment. The Company adopted an accounting policy to combine lease and nonlease components. Rent escalators based on indices and reimbursements of operating expenses that are not included in the lease rate are considered variable lease payments. Variable payments are recognized in the period earned. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had one ground lease that is associated with a property under construction where rent has not yet commenced. Lease income for the Company's operating leases recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $117.7 million and $342.8 million, respectively.

Future lease payments under the non-cancelable operating leases, excluding any reimbursements, as of September 30, 2019 were as follows (in thousands):

2019	$	91,501
2020	340,549

(1) The effective interest rate includes the impact of interest rate swaps on $175.0 million at a weighted average rate of 2.29% (plus the applicable margin rate, currently 100 basis points).

(2) As of September 30, 2019, there were no outstanding loans under the $150.0 million unsecured term loan due June 2026. This term loan has a delayed draw feature that allows the Company until February 2020 to draw against the commitments.

(3) The effective interest rate includes the impact of the $1.7 million settlement of a forward-starting interest rate swap that is included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Changes in Debt Structure

On April 10, 2019, the Company repaid in full a mortgage note payable bearing interest at a rate of 5.00% per annum with an outstanding principal of $8.9 million. The mortgage note encumbered a 52,813 square foot property in Washington.

On May 31, 2019, the Company amended and restated its $700.0 million unsecured credit facility due 2020 (the "Unsecured Credit Facility") to extend the maturity date from July 2020 to May 2023. Amounts outstanding under the Unsecured Credit Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin, which depends on the Company's credit ratings, ranging from 0.775% to 1.45% (currently 0.90%). In addition, the Company pays a facility fee per annum on the aggregate amount of commitments ranging from 0.125% to 0.30% (currently 0.20%). In connection with the amendment, the Company paid up front fees to the lenders and other costs of approximately $3.5 million, which were capitalized and are being amortized over the term of the Unsecured Credit Facility.

Also, on May 31, 2019, the Company amended and restated its term loan agreement (the "Term Loan") with a syndicate of lenders. The amended agreement extended the maturity date of the Company's unsecured term loan due 2022 to May 2024 (the "Term Loan due 2024") and increased the loan amount from $150.0 million to $200.0 million. In addition, the amended agreement added a $150.0 million seven-year term loan facility (the "Term Loan due 2026"). The Term Loan due 2024 bears interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.85% to 1.65% (1.00% at September 30, 2019) based upon the Company's unsecured debt ratings. The Term Loan due 2026 has a delayed draw feature that allows the Company up to nine months to draw against the commitments. As of September 30, 2019, no loans were outstanding under the Term Loan due 2026. Loans outstanding under the Term Loan due 2026 will bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.45% to 2.40% (1.60% at September 30, 2019). Committed amounts that remain undrawn are subject to a ticking fee ranging from 0.125% to 0.30% per annum (0.20% at September 30, 2019). In connection with the amendment, the Company paid up front fees to the lenders of approximately $1.8 million, of which $1.0 million were capitalized and are being amortized over the respective term of the term loans and $0.8 million were expensed during the second quarter of 2019.

Note 5. Derivative Financial Instruments

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk, primarily by managing the

14

amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the

receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s borrowings.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate debt.

For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) ("AOCI") and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in AOCI related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt.

On April 12, 2019, the Company entered into two interest rate swaps totaling $50.0 million to fix the one-month LIBOR portion of the cost of borrowing to a rate of 2.33%. These derivatives are being used to hedge variable cash flows associated with variable-rate debt.

On May 15, 2019, the Company entered into two interest rate swaps totaling $50.0 million to fix the one-month LIBOR portion of the cost of borrowing to a rate of 2.13%. These derivatives are being used to hedge variable cash flows associated with variable-rate debt.

As of September 30, 2019, the Company had eight outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk:

Derivative Instrument	Number of Instruments	Notional Amount (in millions)
Interest rate swaps	8	$175.0

Tabular Disclosure of Fair Values of Derivative Instruments on the Balance Sheet

The table below presents the fair value of the Company's derivative financial instruments, as well as their classification on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2019.

	$	(7,642	)	$	1,403	Total interest expense	$	74		$	369

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

The Company's agreements with each of its derivative counterparties contain a cross-default provision under which the Company could be declared in default of its derivative obligations if repayment of the underlying indebtedness is accelerated by the lender due to the Company's default on the indebtedness.

The Company estimates that $1.3 million will be reclassified from AOCI to interest expense over the next 12 months.

Note 6. Commitments and Contingencies

Note 8. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practical to estimate that value.

Cash and cash equivalents - The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short term maturity of these investments.

Borrowings under the Unsecured Credit Facility and the Term Loan Due 2024 - The carrying amount approximates fair value because the borrowings are based on variable market interest rates.

Senior Notes and Mortgage Notes payable - The fair value of notes and bonds payable is estimated using cash flow analyses, based on the Company’s current interest rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Interest rate swap agreements - Interest rate swap agreements are recorded in other liabilities on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. Fair value is estimated by utilizing pricing models that consider forward yield curves and discount rates.

Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This report and other materials the Company has filed or may file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as information included in oral statements or other written statements made, or to be made, by management of the Company, contain, or will contain, disclosures that are “forward-looking statements.” Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts and can be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “target,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “project,” “continue,” “should,” “could," "budget" and other comparable terms. These forward-looking statements are based on the current plans and expectations of management and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including the risks described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, that could significantly affect the Company’s current plans and expectations and future financial condition and results.

The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Stockholders and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely on such forward-looking statements when evaluating the information presented in the Company’s filings and reports, including, without limitation, estimates and projections regarding the performance of development projects the Company is pursuing.

For a detailed discussion of the Company’s risk factors, please refer to the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources and Uses of Cash

The Company’s primary sources of cash include rent receipts from its real estate portfolio based on contractual arrangements with its tenants and sponsors, borrowings under the Company's Unsecured Credit Facility and Term Loan, proceeds from the sales of real estate properties and proceeds from public or private debt or equity offerings.

The Company expects to continue to meet its liquidity needs, including funding additional investments, paying dividends, and funding debt service, through cash on hand, cash flows from operations, and the cash flow sources described above. The Company had unencumbered real estate assets with a gross book value of approximately $3.9 billion at September 30, 2019, of which a portion could serve as collateral for secured mortgage financing. The Company believes that its liquidity and sources of capital are adequate to satisfy its cash requirements. The Company cannot, however, be certain that these sources of funds will be available at a time and upon terms acceptable to the Company in sufficient amounts to meet its liquidity needs.

Investing Activities

Cash flows used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 were approximately $322.5 million. Below is a summary of significant investing activities.

See Notes 4 and 7 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information about capital markets and financing activities.

Common Stock Issuances

The Company sold 4,694,624 shares under the Company's at-the-market equity offering program from January 1, 2019 through October 31, 2019. The sales generated $153.7 million in net proceeds at prices to the public ranging from $32.01 to $33.77 per share (weighted average of $33.31 per share). The sales occurred during the following time periods:

• During the first quarter of 2019, the Company sold 135,265 shares generating $4.3 million in net proceeds at prices to the public ranging from $32.01 to $32.86 per share (weighted average of $32.36 per share).

• No shares were sold in the second quarter.

• During the third quarter of 2019, the Company sold 2,191,522 shares generating $71.6 million in net proceeds at prices to the public ranging from $32.62 to $33.77 per share (weighted average of $33.15 per share).

• During October 2019, the Company sold 2,367,837 shares generating $78.2 million in net proceeds at prices to the public ranging from $33.17 to $33.74 per share (weighted average of $33.52 per share).

21

The Company had 1,174,073 authorized shares remaining available to be sold under the current sales agreements as of October 31, 2019.

On March 19, 2019, the Company issued 3,737,500 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, at $31.40 per share in an underwritten public offering pursuant to the Company's existing effective registration statement. The net proceeds of the offering, after underwriting discounts and offering expenses, were approximately $115.8 million.

Debt Activity

On April 10, 2019, the Company repaid in full a mortgage note payable bearing interest at a rate of 5.00% per annum with an outstanding principal of $8.9 million. The mortgage note encumbered a 52,813 square foot property in Washington.

On May 31, 2019, the Company amended and restated its Unsecured Credit Facility to extend the maturity date from July 2020 to May 2023. Amounts outstanding under the Unsecured Credit Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin, which depends on the Company's credit ratings ranging from 0.775% to 1.45% (currently 0.90%). In addition, the Company pays a facility fee per annum on the aggregate amount of commitments ranging from 0.125% to 0.30% (currently 0.20%). In connection with the amendment, the Company paid up front fees to the lenders and other costs of approximately $3.5 million, which were capitalized and will be amortized over the term of the Unsecured Credit Facility.

Also, on May 31, 2019, the Company amended and restated its Term Loan with a syndicate of lenders. The amended agreement extended the maturity date of the Company's unsecured term loan due 2022 to May 2024 and increased the loan amount from $150.0 million to $200.0 million. In addition, the amended agreement added a $150.0 million seven-year term loan facility due June 2026. The Term Loan due 2024 bears interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.85% to 1.65% (1.00% at September 30, 2019) based upon the Company's unsecured debt ratings. The Term Loan due 2026 has a delayed draw feature that allows the Company up to nine months to draw against the commitments. As of September 30, 2019, no loans were outstanding under the Term Loan due 2026. Loans outstanding under the Term Loan due 2026 will bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.45% to 2.40% (1.60% at September 30, 2019). Committed amounts that remain undrawn are subject to a ticking fee ranging from 0.125% to 0.30% per annum (0.20% at September 30, 2019). In connection with the amendment, the Company paid up front fees to the lenders of approximately $1.8 million, of which $1.0 million were capitalized and will be amortized over the respective term of the Term Loans and $0.8 million were expensed during the second quarter of 2019.

The Company has outstanding interest rate swaps totaling $175.0 million to hedge one-month LIBOR. The following details the amount and rate of each swap (dollars in thousands):

Effective Date	Amount		Weighted Average Rate		Expiration Date
December 18, 2017	$	25,000	2.18	%	December 16, 2022
February 1, 2018	50,000		2.46	%	December 16, 2022
May 1, 2019	50,000		2.33	%	May 1, 2026
June 3, 2019	50,000		2.13	%	May 1, 2026
	$	175,000	2.29	%

Operating Activities

Cash flows provided by operating activities increased from $150.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to $158.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Items impacting cash flows from operations include, but are not limited to, cash generated from property operations, interest payments and the timing related to the payment of invoices and other expenses.

The Company may, from time to time, sell properties and redeploy cash from property sales into new investments. To the extent revenues related to the properties being sold exceed income from these new investments, the Company's results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on the Company’s financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

New Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 1 to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements accompanying this report for information on new accounting standards.

Trends and Matters Impacting Operating Results

Management monitors factors and trends important to the Company and the REIT industry to gauge the potential impact on the operations of the Company. In addition to the matters discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, below are some of the factors and trends that management believes may impact future operations of the Company.

Expiring Leases

The Company expects that approximately 15% to 20% of the leases in its multi-tenanted portfolio will expire each year in the ordinary course of business. There are 204 leases totaling 0.7 million square feet in the Company's multi-tenant portfolio that will expire during the remainder of 2019. Approximately 95% of the leases expiring in 2019 are in buildings located on or adjacent to hospital campuses, are distributed throughout the portfolio, and are not concentrated with any one tenant, health system or market area. The Company typically expects to retain 75% to 90% of multi-tenant property tenants upon expiration, and the retention ratio for the first nine months of the year has been within this range.

Included in the 2019 lease expirations is a lease for a 111,000 square foot fitness center with Baylor Scott & White that has been extended for an additional 90 days to December 31, 2019. This fitness center is located in a 217,000 square foot on-campus medical office building. The Company is currently in lease negotiations with a fitness center operator for approximately half of the space and is exploring options to convert any remaining space to clinical use.

The Company had two single-tenant net leased, on-campus inpatient rehabilitation facilities with lease terms that expired in the third quarter of 2019.  The tenant exercised a five-year renewal for one of these facilities at a lease rate 7.6% greater than the previous lease rate. The other facility was sold to the ground lessor on October 25, 2019, as a result of its exercise of a purchase option, at a price of $14.0 million. Rent from this property represented 0.8% of total cash net operating income ("NOI") for the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2019.

Property Operating Agreement Expirations

On February 28, 2019, the Company’s remaining property operating agreement between the Company and a sponsoring health system expired. This agreement contractually obligated the sponsoring health system to provide to the Company a minimum return on the Company’s investment in the property in exchange for the right to be involved in the operating decisions of the property, including tenancy. If the minimum return was not achieved through normal operations of the property, the Company calculated and accrued to property lease guaranty revenue, each quarter, any shortfalls due from the sponsor under the terms of the property operating agreement. The Company recognized $0.1 million in property lease guaranty revenue during the first quarter of 2019 related to this agreement.

Operating Expenses

The Company has historically experienced increases in property taxes throughout its portfolio as a result of increasing assessments and tax rates levied across the country. The Company continues its efforts to appeal property tax increases and manage the impact of the increases. In addition, the Company has historically incurred variability in portfolio utilities expense based on seasonality, with the first and third quarters usually reflecting greater amounts. The effects of these operating expense increases are mitigated in leases that have provisions for operating expense reimbursement. As of September 30, 2019, leases for 88% of the Company's multi-tenant leased square footage allow for some recovery of operating expenses, with 32% having modified gross lease structures and 56% having net lease structures.

23

_____

(1) The purchase option price includes a fair market value component that is determined by an appraisal process.

(2) Includes properties with stated purchase prices or prices based on fixed capitalization rates. These properties have purchase prices that are on average 17% greater than the Company's current gross investment.

(3) These purchase options have been exercisable for an average of 11.1 years.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Performance Indicators

Management considers certain non-GAAP financial measures and key performance indicators to be useful supplemental measures of the Company's operating performance. A non-GAAP financial measure is generally defined as one that purports to measure financial performance, financial position or cash flows, but excludes or includes amounts that would not be so adjusted in the most comparable measure determined in accordance with GAAP. Set forth below are descriptions of the non-GAAP financial measures management considers relevant to the Company's business and useful to investors, as well as reconciliations of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

The non-GAAP financial measures and key performance indicators presented herein are not necessarily identical to those presented by other real estate companies due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definitions. These measures should not be considered as alternatives to net income, as indicators of the Company's financial performance, or as alternatives to cash flow from operating activities as measures of the Company's liquidity, nor are these measures necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of the Company's needs. Management believes that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of the Company's historical consolidated operating results, these measures should be examined in conjunction with net income and cash flows from operations as presented in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and other financial data included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Funds from Operations ("FFO"), Normalized FFO and Funds Available for Distribution ("FAD")

FFO and FFO per share are operating performance measures adopted by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). NAREIT defines FFO as the most commonly accepted and reported measure of a REIT’s operating performance equal to “net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus depreciation and amortization, impairment, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.”

In addition to FFO, the Company presents Normalized FFO and FAD. Normalized FFO is presented by adding to FFO acquisition-related costs, acceleration of debt issuance costs, debt extinguishment costs and other Company-defined normalizing items to evaluate operating performance. FAD is presented by adding to Normalized FFO non-real estate depreciation and amortization, deferred financing fees amortization, stock-based compensation expense and provision for bad debts, net; and subtracting maintenance capital expenditures, including second generation tenant improvements and leasing commissions paid and straight-line rent income, net of expense. The Company's definition of these terms may not be comparable to that of other real estate companies as they may have different methodologies for computing these amounts. Normalized FFO and FAD should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company's financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities as an indicator of the Company's liquidity. Normalized FFO and FAD should be reviewed in connection with GAAP financial measures.

24

Management believes FFO, Normalized FFO, FFO per share, Normalized FFO per share and FAD ("Non-GAAP Measures") provide an understanding of the operating performance of the Company’s properties without giving effect to certain significant non-cash items, primarily depreciation and amortization expense. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. However, real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions. The Company believes that by excluding the effect of depreciation, amortization, impairments and gains or losses from sales of real estate, all of which are based on historical costs and which may be of limited relevance in evaluating current performance, Non-GAAP Measures can facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods. The Company reports Non-GAAP Measures because these measures are observed by management to also be the predominant measures used by the REIT industry and by industry analysts to evaluate REITs. For these reasons, management deems it appropriate to disclose and discuss these Non-GAAP Measures. However, none of these measures represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP and are not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. Further, these measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of liquidity. The table below reconciles net income to FFO, Normalized FFO and FAD for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018:

(3) The Company's former Executive Chairman, David R. Emery, died on September 30, 2019 resulting in a $2.9 million charge for the acceleration of his outstanding nonvested share-based awards and associated taxes. The third quarter of 2018 includes a revaluation adjustment recorded in connection with an officer retirement.

(4) Includes the amortization of deferred financing costs, discounts and premiums.

(5) The Company utilizes the treasury stock method which includes the dilutive effect of nonvested share-based awards outstanding of 846,327 and 839,883 and 767,479 and 715,491, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

Cash NOI and Same Store Cash NOI

Cash NOI and Same Store Cash NOI are key performance indicators. Management considers these to be supplemental measures that allow investors, analysts and Company management to measure unlevered property-level operating results. The Company defines Cash NOI as rental income and property lease guaranty income less property operating expenses. Cash NOI excludes non-cash items such as above and below market lease intangibles, straight-line rent, lease inducements, tenant improvement amortization and leasing commission amortization. The Company also excludes cash lease termination fees. Cash NOI is historical and not necessarily indicative of future results.

Same Store Cash NOI compares Cash NOI for stabilized properties. Stabilized properties are properties that have been included in operations for the duration of the year-over-year comparison period presented and include redevelopment projects. Accordingly, stabilized properties exclude properties that were recently acquired or disposed of, properties classified as held for sale, reposition properties and newly developed properties. The Company utilizes the reposition classification for properties experiencing a shift in strategic direction. Such a shift can occur for a variety of reasons, including a substantial change in the use of the asset, a change in strategy or closure of a neighboring hospital, or significant property damage. Such properties may require enhanced management, leasing, capital needs or a disposition strategy that differs from the rest of the portfolio. To identify properties exhibiting these reposition characteristics, the Company applies the following Company-defined criteria:

• Properties having less than 60% occupancy that is expected to last at least two quarters;

• Properties that experience a loss of occupancy over 30% in a single quarter; or

• Properties with negative net operating income that is expected to last at least two quarters.

Any recently acquired property will be included in the same store pool once the Company has owned the property for eight full quarters. Newly developed properties will be included in the same store pool eight full quarters after substantial completion. Any additional square footage created by redevelopment projects at a same store property is included in the same store pool immediately upon completion. Any property included in the reposition property group will be included in the same store analysis once occupancy has increased to 60% or greater with positive net operating income and has remained at that level for eight full quarters. The following table reflects the Company's same store cash NOI for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

9 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2019

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Business Overview

Business Overview

Healthcare Realty Trust Incorporated (the "Company") is a real estate investment trust ("REIT") that owns, leases, manages, acquires, finances, develops and redevelops income-producing real estate properties associated primarily with the delivery of outpatient healthcare services throughout the United States. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had gross investments of approximately $4.2 billion in 204 real estate properties located in 26 states totaling approximately 15.4 million square feet. The Company provided leasing and property management services to approximately 11.2 million square feet nationwide.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed herein, management believes there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

This interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Management believes that all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. In addition, the interim financial information does not necessarily represent or indicate what the operating results will be for the year ending December 31, 2019 for many reasons including, but not limited to, acquisitions, dispositions, capital financing transactions, changes in interest rates and the effects of other trends, risks and uncertainties.

Use of Estimates in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Use of Estimates in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Revenue from Contract with Customers (Topic 606)

Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)

The Company recognizes certain revenue under the core principle of Topic 606. This requires an entity to recognize 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. Lease revenue is not within the scope of Topic 606. To achieve the core principle, the Company applies the five step model specified in the guidance.

Revenue that is accounted for under Topic 606 is segregated on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in the Other operating line item. This line item includes parking income, rental lease guaranty income, management fee income and other miscellaneous income. Below is a detail of the amounts by category:

(in thousands)	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
Type of Revenue	2019		2018		2019		2018
Parking income	$	1,935	$	1,752	$	5,538	$	5,197
Rental lease guaranty	—		168		128		488
Management fee income	69		68		201		205
Miscellaneous	55		22		120		83
	$	2,059	$	2,010	$	5,987	$	5,973

The Company’s three major types of revenue that are accounted for under Topic 606 that are listed above are all accounted for as the performance obligation is satisfied. The performance obligations that are identified for each of these items are satisfied over time, and the Company recognizes revenue monthly based on this principle.

New Accounting Pronouncements

New Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, No. 2018-01 and No. 2018-11

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases." In January 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-01, "Leases - Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842," in July 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-10, "Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases" and ASU 2018-11, "Leases - Targeted Improvements," and in December 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-20, “Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors.” These accounting standard updates are collectively referred to as "Topic 842."

Topic 842 provides several practical expedients that the Company elected. These are (a) the package of practical expedients offered that allows an entity not to reassess upon adoption (i) whether an expired or existing contract contains a lease, (ii) lease classification related to expired or existing lease arrangements, and (iii) whether costs incurred on expired or existing leases qualify as initial direct costs, (b) the lessor practical expedient not to separate certain non-lease components, such as common area maintenance, from the lease component if (i) the timing and pattern of transfer are the same for the non-lease component and associated lease component, and (ii) the lease component would be classified as an operating lease if accounted for separately and (c) the lessee practical expedient not to separate certain non-lease components from the associated lease component.

For lessees, the new standard establishes a right-of-use ("ROU") model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases are classified as either finance or operating, with the classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The Company's ground leases executed or assumed prior to the adoption of Topic 842 continue to be accounted for as operating leases and will not result in a materially different ground lease expense. However, each ground lease executed by the Company after the adoption of Topic 842 will be evaluated to determine if it is an operating or finance lease. If the lease is to be accounted for as a finance lease, ground lease expense would be accounted for using the effective interest method instead of the straight-line method over the term of the lease, which would result in higher ground lease expense in the earlier years of a ground lease when compared to the straight-line method. Leases in which the Company is the lessee are primarily ground leases, but also includes management office leases in third party buildings and certain copier and postage machine leases. The terms of the ground leases generally range from 40 to 99 years with a weighted average lease term remaining of 52.5 years, excluding renewal options. The Company's discount rates, which approximates the Company's incremental borrowing rate, ranged from 3.4% for leases expiring in 2019 to 6.2% for leases expiring in 2115. The Company utilized a third party to assist in determining the discount rates for its ground leases. The discount rates consider the general economic environment and factor in various financing and asset specific adjustments so that the discount rate is appropriate for the intended use of the underlying lease. As of January 1, 2019, the Company recognized the present value of its lease payments and a corresponding lease liability of $91.7 million. In addition, the Company reclassified $45.0 million of prepaid ground leases and below-market lease intangibles from the Other assets line item, $1.9 million of above-market lease intangibles from the Other liabilities line and $8.4 million of straight-line rent from the Accounts payable and accrued liabilities line item to the Operating lease right-of-use assets line item on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

For lessors, the new standard requires a lessor to classify leases as either sales-type, direct-financing or operating. A lease will be treated as a sale if it is considered to transfer control of the underlying asset to the lessee. A lease will be classified as direct-financing if risks and rewards are conveyed without the transfer of control. Otherwise, the lease is treated as an operating lease. Lessor accounting remains largely unchanged with some exceptions including the concept of separating lease and nonlease components. Nonlease components, such as common area maintenance, are generally accounted for under Topic 606 and separated from the lease payments. However, the Company elected the lessor practical expedient allowing the Company to not separate these components when certain conditions are met. The combined component is accounted for under Topic 842. Lease related receivables, which include accounts receivable and accrued straight-line rent receivables, are reduced for revenue reserves and are recognized as a reduction to rental income. The adoption of Topic 842, where the Company is the lessor, did not have a material impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

The new standard was effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. Topic 842 provides two transition alternatives. The Company elected to choose the prospective optional transition method available to apply the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 840 in the comparative periods presented in the year Topic 842 was adopted. Topic 842 includes extensive quantitative and qualitative disclosures as compared to Topic 840, Leases, for both lessees and lessors. See Note 3 to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional disclosures.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13 and No. 2018-19

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." This update is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring timelier recognition of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments that are not accounted for at fair value through net income, including loans held for investment, held-to-maturity debt securities, trade and other receivables, net investment in leases and other such commitments. This update requires that financial statement assets measured at an amortized cost and certain other financial instruments be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, through an allowance for credit losses that is deducted from the amortized cost basis. ASU 2018-19 also clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of this topic. Instead, impairment of these receivables should be accounted for in accordance with Topic 842, Leases. This standard is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact from the adoption of this new standard on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-04

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, "Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment." This update eliminates Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. As such, an entity will perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize a goodwill impairment charge for the amount by which the reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds its fair value. This standard is effective for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company does not expect a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes from the adoption of this standard.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivative Financial Instruments

Derivative Financial Instruments

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk, primarily by managing the

amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the

receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s borrowings.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate debt.

For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) ("AOCI") and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in AOCI related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt.

On April 12, 2019, the Company entered into two interest rate swaps totaling $50.0 million to fix the one-month LIBOR portion of the cost of borrowing to a rate of 2.33%. These derivatives are being used to hedge variable cash flows associated with variable-rate debt.

On May 15, 2019, the Company entered into two interest rate swaps totaling $50.0 million to fix the one-month LIBOR portion of the cost of borrowing to a rate of 2.13%. These derivatives are being used to hedge variable cash flows associated with variable-rate debt.

As of September 30, 2019, the Company had eight outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk:

Derivative Instrument	Number of Instruments	Notional Amount (in millions)
Interest rate swaps	8	$175.0

	$	(7,642	)	$	1,403	Total interest expense	$	74		$	369

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

The Company's agreements with each of its derivative counterparties contain a cross-default provision under which the Company could be declared in default of its derivative obligations if repayment of the underlying indebtedness is accelerated by the lender due to the Company's default on the indebtedness.

The Company estimates that $1.3 million will be reclassified from AOCI to interest expense over the next 12 months.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Business Overview

Healthcare Realty Trust Incorporated (the "Company") is a real estate investment trust ("REIT") that owns, leases, manages, acquires, finances, develops and redevelops income-producing real estate properties associated primarily with the delivery of outpatient healthcare services throughout the United States. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had gross investments of approximately $4.2 billion in 204 real estate properties located in 26 states totaling approximately 15.4 million square feet. The Company provided leasing and property management services to approximately 11.2 million square feet nationwide.

Basis of Presentation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed herein, management believes there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

This interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. Management believes that all adjustments of a normal, recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. In addition, the interim financial information does not necessarily represent or indicate what the operating results will be for the year ending December 31, 2019 for many reasons including, but not limited to, acquisitions, dispositions, capital financing transactions, changes in interest rates and the effects of other trends, risks and uncertainties.

Use of Estimates in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)

The Company recognizes certain revenue under the core principle of Topic 606. This requires an entity to recognize 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. Lease revenue is not within the scope of Topic 606. To achieve the core principle, the Company applies the five step model specified in the guidance.

Revenue that is accounted for under Topic 606 is segregated on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in the Other operating line item. This line item includes parking income, rental lease guaranty income, management fee income and other miscellaneous income. Below is a detail of the amounts by category:

(in thousands)	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
Type of Revenue	2019		2018		2019		2018
Parking income	$	1,935	$	1,752	$	5,538	$	5,197
Rental lease guaranty	—		168		128		488
Management fee income	69		68		201		205
Miscellaneous	55		22		120		83
	$	2,059	$	2,010	$	5,987	$	5,973

The Company’s three major types of revenue that are accounted for under Topic 606 that are listed above are all accounted for as the performance obligation is satisfied. The performance obligations that are identified for each of these items are satisfied over time, and the Company recognizes revenue monthly based on this principle.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, No. 2018-01 and No. 2018-11

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases." In January 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-01, "Leases - Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842," in July 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-10, "Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases" and ASU 2018-11, "Leases - Targeted Improvements," and in December 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-20, “Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors.” These accounting standard updates are collectively referred to as "Topic 842."

Topic 842 provides several practical expedients that the Company elected. These are (a) the package of practical expedients offered that allows an entity not to reassess upon adoption (i) whether an expired or existing contract contains a lease, (ii) lease classification related to expired or existing lease arrangements, and (iii) whether costs incurred on expired or existing leases qualify as initial direct costs, (b) the lessor practical expedient not to separate certain non-lease components, such as common area maintenance, from the lease component if (i) the timing and pattern of transfer are the same for the non-lease component and associated lease component, and (ii) the lease component would be classified as an operating lease if accounted for separately and (c) the lessee practical expedient not to separate certain non-lease components from the associated lease component.

For lessees, the new standard establishes a right-of-use ("ROU") model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases are classified as either finance or operating, with the classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The Company's ground leases executed or assumed prior to the adoption of Topic 842 continue to be accounted for as operating leases and will not result in a materially different ground lease expense. However, each ground lease executed by the Company after the adoption of Topic 842 will be evaluated to determine if it is an operating or finance lease. If the lease is to be accounted for as a finance lease, ground lease expense would be accounted for using the effective interest method instead of the straight-line method over the term of the lease, which would result in higher ground lease expense in the earlier years of a ground lease when compared to the straight-line method. Leases in which the Company is the lessee are primarily ground leases, but also includes management office leases in third party buildings and certain copier and postage machine leases. The terms of the ground leases generally range from 40 to 99 years with a weighted average lease term remaining of 52.5 years, excluding renewal options. The Company's discount rates, which approximates the Company's incremental borrowing rate, ranged from 3.4% for leases expiring in 2019 to 6.2% for leases expiring in 2115. The Company utilized a third party to assist in determining the discount rates for its ground leases. The discount rates consider the general economic environment and factor in various financing and asset specific adjustments so that the discount rate is appropriate for the intended use of the underlying lease. As of January 1, 2019, the Company recognized the present value of its lease payments and a corresponding lease liability of $91.7 million. In addition, the Company reclassified $45.0 million of prepaid ground leases and below-market lease intangibles from the Other assets line item, $1.9 million of above-market lease intangibles from the Other liabilities line and $8.4 million of straight-line rent from the Accounts payable and accrued liabilities line item to the Operating lease right-of-use assets line item on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

For lessors, the new standard requires a lessor to classify leases as either sales-type, direct-financing or operating. A lease will be treated as a sale if it is considered to transfer control of the underlying asset to the lessee. A lease will be classified as direct-financing if risks and rewards are conveyed without the transfer of control. Otherwise, the lease is treated as an operating lease. Lessor accounting remains largely unchanged with some exceptions including the concept of separating lease and nonlease components. Nonlease components, such as common area maintenance, are generally accounted for under Topic 606 and separated from the lease payments. However, the Company elected the lessor practical expedient allowing the Company to not separate these components when certain conditions are met. The combined component is accounted for under Topic 842. Lease related receivables, which include accounts receivable and accrued straight-line rent receivables, are reduced for revenue reserves and are recognized as a reduction to rental income. The adoption of Topic 842, where the Company is the lessor, did not have a material impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

The new standard was effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. Topic 842 provides two transition alternatives. The Company elected to choose the prospective optional transition method available to apply the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 840 in the comparative periods presented in the year Topic 842 was adopted. Topic 842 includes extensive quantitative and qualitative disclosures as compared to Topic 840, Leases, for both lessees and lessors. See Note 3 to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional disclosures.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practical to estimate that value.

Cash and cash equivalents - The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short term maturity of these investments.

Borrowings under the Unsecured Credit Facility and the Term Loan Due 2024 - The carrying amount approximates fair value because the borrowings are based on variable market interest rates.

Senior Notes and Mortgage Notes payable - The fair value of notes and bonds payable is estimated using cash flow analyses, based on the Company’s current interest rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Interest rate swap agreements - Interest rate swap agreements are recorded in other liabilities on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. Fair value is estimated by utilizing pricing models that consider forward yield curves and discount rates.

The table below details the fair values and carrying values for notes and bonds payable at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

	September 30, 2019				December 31, 2018

(1) The effective interest rate includes the impact of interest rate swaps on $175.0 million at a weighted average rate of 2.29% (plus the applicable margin rate, currently 100 basis points).

(2) As of September 30, 2019, there were no outstanding loans under the $150.0 million unsecured term loan due June 2026. This term loan has a delayed draw feature that allows the Company until February 2020 to draw against the commitments.

(3) The effective interest rate includes the impact of the $1.7 million settlement of a forward-starting interest rate swap that is included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Changes in Debt Structure

On April 10, 2019, the Company repaid in full a mortgage note payable bearing interest at a rate of 5.00% per annum with an outstanding principal of $8.9 million. The mortgage note encumbered a 52,813 square foot property in Washington.

On May 31, 2019, the Company amended and restated its $700.0 million unsecured credit facility due 2020 (the "Unsecured Credit Facility") to extend the maturity date from July 2020 to May 2023. Amounts outstanding under the Unsecured Credit Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin, which depends on the Company's credit ratings, ranging from 0.775% to 1.45% (currently 0.90%). In addition, the Company pays a facility fee per annum on the aggregate amount of commitments ranging from 0.125% to 0.30% (currently 0.20%). In connection with the amendment, the Company paid up front fees to the lenders and other costs of approximately $3.5 million, which were capitalized and are being amortized over the term of the Unsecured Credit Facility.

Also, on May 31, 2019, the Company amended and restated its term loan agreement (the "Term Loan") with a syndicate of lenders. The amended agreement extended the maturity date of the Company's unsecured term loan due 2022 to May 2024 (the "Term Loan due 2024") and increased the loan amount from $150.0 million to $200.0 million. In addition, the amended agreement added a $150.0 million seven-year term loan facility (the "Term Loan due 2026"). The Term Loan due 2024 bears interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.85% to 1.65% (1.00% at September 30, 2019) based upon the Company's unsecured debt ratings. The Term Loan due 2026 has a delayed draw feature that allows the Company up to nine months to draw against the commitments. As of September 30, 2019, no loans were outstanding under the Term Loan due 2026. Loans outstanding under the Term Loan due 2026 will bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.45% to 2.40% (1.60% at September 30, 2019). Committed amounts that remain undrawn are subject to a ticking fee ranging from 0.125% to 0.30% per annum (0.20% at September 30, 2019). In connection with the amendment, the Company paid up front fees to the lenders of approximately $1.8 million, of which $1.0 million were capitalized and are being amortized over the respective term of the term loans and $0.8 million were expensed during the second quarter of 2019.

Leases [Abstract]

Leases

Lessor Accounting Under ASC 842

The Company’s properties generally are leased pursuant to non-cancelable, fixed-term operating leases with expiration dates through 2036. Some leases provide for fixed rent renewal terms in addition to market rent renewal terms. Some leases provide the lessee, during the term of the lease, with an option or right of first refusal to purchase the leased property. The Company’s portfolio of single-tenant net leases generally requires the lessee to pay minimum rent and all taxes (including property tax), insurance, maintenance and other operating costs associated with the leased property.

The Company's leases typically have escalators that are either based on a stated percentage or an index such as CPI (consumer price index). In addition, most of the Company's leases include nonlease components such as reimbursement of operating expenses as additional rent or include the reimbursement of expected operating expenses as part of the lease payment. The Company adopted an accounting policy to combine lease and nonlease components. Rent escalators based on indices and reimbursements of operating expenses that are not included in the lease rate are considered variable lease payments. Variable payments are recognized in the period earned. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had one ground lease that is associated with a property under construction where rent has not yet commenced. Lease income for the Company's operating leases recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $117.7 million and $342.8 million, respectively.

Future lease payments under the non-cancelable operating leases, excluding any reimbursements, as of September 30, 2019 were as follows (in thousands):

2019	$	91,501
2020	340,549
