Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets 7: Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets
In 2017, the Company initiated a strategic shift whereby it adopted a plan to divest of its remaining suburban office properties. In the third quarter of 2018, the Company updated its strategy whereby it adopted a plan to divest of all of its remaining office properties. The Company determined that the strategic shift would have a major effect on its operations and financial results. As such, properties sold or those that meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale within the corporate strategy were classified within discontinued operations. Consistent with the held for sale criteria these properties are expected to be sold within one year. As the result of the classification within discontinued operations, the in-service assets and liabilities of this portfolio are required to be presented as held for sale for all prior periods presented in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Operating results pertaining to these properties were reclassified to discontinued operations for all prior periods presented in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
The following table illustrates the number of sold or held for sale properties included in, or excluded from, discontinued operations:

Impairment Charges - Real Estate Assets
The Company recorded $4.0 million and $14.4 million of impairment charges during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. These impairment charges were primarily related to an office building held for sale in the Company's DC Metro segment and is primarily included in discontinued operations in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

The Company determined these impairments based on third party offer prices which are Level 2 according to the fair value hierarchy established in ASC 820.

The Company recorded a $26.0 million impairment charge during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018. This charge related to the Camden Waterfront project located in Camden, New Jersey and reported in the Company's Philadelphia reportable segment. The Company determined this impairment based on quoted offer prices on comparable properties, which is a Level 3 fair value calculation.

The Company has applied reasonable estimates and judgments in evaluating each of its properties and land held for development and has determined that there are no additional valuation adjustments necessary at June 30, 2019. Should external or internal circumstances change requiring the need to shorten the holding periods or adjust the estimated future cash flows of the Company’s assets, the Company could be required to record additional impairment charges in the future.
