⁽¹⁾ Regency acquired a 53% controlling interest in the Market at Springwoods Village partnership to develop a shopping center on land contributed by the partner.

Equity One Merger

General

On March 1, 2017, Regency completed its merger with Equity One, a NYSE listed shopping center company, whereby Equity One merged with and into Regency, with Regency continuing as the surviving public company. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each Equity One stockholder received 0.45 of a newly issued share of Regency common stock for each share of Equity One common stock owned immediately prior to the effective time of the merger resulting in approximately 65.5 million Regency common shares being issued to effect the merger.

The following table provides the components that make up the total purchase price for the Equity One merger:



(in thousands, except stock price)	Purchase Price
Shares of common stock issued for merger	65,379
Closing stock price on March 1, 2017	$	68.40
Value of common stock issued for merger	$	4,471,808
Other cash payments	721,297
Total purchase price	$	5,193,105

As part of the merger, Regency acquired 121 properties, including 8 properties held through co-investment partnerships. The consolidated net assets and results of operations of Equity One are included in the consolidated financial statements from the closing date, March 1, 2017, going forward and resulted in the following impact to Revenues and Net income attributable to common stockholders:



(in thousands)	Year ended December 31, 2017
Increase in total revenues	$	337,761
Increase in net income attributable to common stockholders	$	81,766

The Company incurred $80.7 million and $6.5 million, respectively, of merger-related transaction costs during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, which are recorded in Other operating expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations, and are not reflected in the table above.

Provisional Purchase Price Allocation of Merger

The Equity One merger has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, which requires, among other things, that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their acquisition date fair values.

The acquired assets and assumed liabilities of an acquired operating property generally include, but are not limited to: land, buildings and improvements, identified tangible and intangible assets and liabilities associated with in-place leases, including tenant improvements, leasing costs, value of above-market and below-market leases, and value of acquired in-place leases. This methodology requires estimating an “as-if vacant” fair value of the physical property, which includes land, building, and improvements and also determining the estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets and liabilities, considering the following categories: (i) value of in-place leases, (ii) above and below-market value of in-place leases, and deferred taxes related to the book tax difference created through purchase accounting. The excess of the purchase price consideration over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed results in goodwill in the business combination, which reflects expected synergies from combining Regency's and Equity One's operations and the deferred tax liability at one of the acquired taxable REIT subsidiaries. The goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

The provisional fair market value of the acquired operating properties is based on a valuation prepared by Regency with assistance of a third party valuation specialist. The third party used stabilized NOI and market specific capitalization and discount rates as the primary inputs in determining the fair value of the real estate assets. Management reviewed the inputs used by the third party specialist as well as the allocation of the purchase price to ensure reasonableness and that the procedures were performed in accordance with management's policy. Management and the third party valuation specialist have prepared their provisional fair value estimates for each of the operating properties acquired, but are still in process of reviewing all of the underlying inputs and assumptions; therefore, the purchase price and its allocation, in their entirety, are not yet complete as of the date of this filing but have been updated to reflect management's current best estimates of fair values as of the acquisition date. Once the purchase price and allocation are complete, an additional adjustment to the purchase price or allocation may occur.

The following table summarizes the current provisional purchase price allocation based on the Company's valuation, including estimates and assumptions of the acquisition date fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed:



(in thousands)	Provisional Purchase Price Allocation
Land	$	2,865,053
Building and improvements	2,619,553
Properties in development	68,744
Properties held for sale	19,600
Investments in unconsolidated real estate partnerships	99,666
Real estate assets	5,672,616
Cash, accounts receivable and other assets	112,909
Intangible assets	458,554
Goodwill	331,884
Total assets acquired	6,575,963

Notes payable	757,399
Accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities	121,798
Lease intangible liabilities	503,661
Total liabilities assumed	1,382,858

Total purchase price	$	5,193,105

During the three months ended December 31, 2017, the Company adjusted the provisional purchase price allocation to reflect current best estimates of fair values of the acquired operating properties, based on the valuation process described above. These adjustments resulted in the following increases (decreases) to earnings during the three months ended December 31, 2017 that would have been recognized in previous periods if the adjustments to provisional amounts were recognized as of the acquisition date:



(in thousands)	Three months ended December 31, 2017
decrease in Minimum rent	$	(2,386	)
decrease in Depreciation and amortization	1,435
increase in Equity in income of investments in real estate partnerships	350
Net decrease to earnings of provisional purchase price allocation adjustments	$	(601	)

The allocation of the purchase price is based on management’s assessment, which may change in the future as more information becomes available. Subsequent adjustments made to the purchase price allocation upon completion of the Company's fair value assessment process will not exceed one year from the acquisition date. The allocation of the purchase price described above requires a significant amount of judgment and represents management's best estimate of the fair value as of the acquisition date.

The following table details the provisional weighted average amortization and net accretion periods, in years, of the major classes of intangible assets and intangible liabilities arising from the Equity One merger:



(in years)		Weighted Average Amortization Period
Assets:
In-place leases		11.3
Above-market leases		7.9
Below-market ground leases		55.3
Liabilities:
Below-market leases		25.8
