PART I
Item 1. Business
Overview
Business description
Douglas Emmett, Inc. is a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed REIT. We are one of the largest owners and operators of high-quality office and multifamily properties located in premier coastal submarkets in Los Angeles and Honolulu. Through our interest in our Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, our consolidated JVs, and our unconsolidated Funds,Fund, we focus on owning, acquiring, developing and managing a significantsubstantial market share of top-tier office properties and premier multifamily communities in neighborhoods with significant supply constraints, high-end executive housing and key lifestyle amenities. Our properties are located in the Beverly Hills, Brentwood, Burbank, Century City, Olympic Corridor, Santa Monica, Sherman Oaks/Encino, Warner Center/Woodland Hills and Westwood submarkets of Los Angeles County, California, and in Honolulu, Hawaii. We intend to increase our market share in our existing submarkets and may enter into other submarkets with similar characteristics where we believe we can gain significant market share. The terms "us," "we" and "our" as used in this Report refer to Douglas Emmett, Inc. and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.
At December 31, 2018,2021, we owned a Consolidated Portfolio consisting of (i) a 16.617.8 million square foot office portfolio, (ii) 3,5954,388 multifamily apartment units and (iii) fee interests in two parcels of land from which we receive rent under ground leases. We also manage and own equity interests in our unconsolidated FundsFund which, at December 31, 2018,2021, owned an additional 1.80.4 million square feet of office space. We manage our unconsolidated FundsFund alongside our Consolidated Portfolio, and we therefore present the statistics for our office portfolio on a Total Portfolio basis. For more information, see Item 2 “Properties” of this Report. As of December 31, 2018,2021, our portfolio consisted of the following (not including(including ancillary retail space and excluding the two parcels of land from which we receive rent under ground leases):

Business Strategy
We employ a focused business strategy that we have developed and implemented over the past four decades:
•Concentration of High Quality Office and Multifamily Properties in Premier Submarkets.
First we select submarkets that are supply constrained, with high barriers to entry, key lifestyle amenities, proximity to high-end executive housing and a strong, diverse economic base. Virtually no entitled Class A office space is currently under construction in any of our targeted submarkets. Our submarkets are dominated by small, affluent tenants, whose rents are very small relative to their revenues and often not the paramount factor in their leasing decisions. At December 31, 2018,2021, our office portfolio median size tenant was approximately 2,6002,500 square feet. Our office tenants operate in diverse industries, including among others legal, financial services, entertainment, real estate, accounting and consulting, health services, retail, technology and insurance, reducing our dependence on any one industry. In 2016, 20172019, 2020 and 2018,2021, no tenant accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues.
•Disciplined Strategy of Acquiring Substantial Market Share.
Share In Each Submarket.Once we select a submarket, we follow a disciplined strategy of gaining substantial market share to provide us with extensive local transactional market information, pricing power in lease and vendor negotiations and an enhanced ability to identify and negotiate investment opportunities. As a result, we average approximately a 39%38% share of the Class A office space in our submarkets based on the square feet of exposure in our total portfolio to each submarket. See "Office Portfolio Summary" in Item 2 “Properties” of this Report.
•Proactive Asset and Property Management.
Our fully integrated and focused operating platform provides the unsurpassed tenant service demanded in our submarkets, with in-house leasing, proactive asset and property management and internal design and construction services, which we believe provides us with a competitive advantage in managing our property portfolio. Our in-house leasing agents and legal specialists allow us to lease a large property portfolio with a diverse group of smaller tenants, closing an average of approximately three office leases each business day, and our in-house construction company allows us to compress the time required for building out many smaller spaces, resulting in reduced vacancy periods. Our property management group oversees day-to-day property management of both our office and multifamily portfolios, allowing us to benefit from the operational efficiencies permitted by our submarket concentration.
Corporate Structure
Douglas Emmett, Inc. was formed as a Maryland corporation on June 28, 2005 to continue and expand the operations of Douglas Emmett Realty Advisors and its 9 institutional funds. All of our assets are directly or indirectly held by our Operating Partnership, which was formed as a Delaware limited partnership on July 25, 2005. As the sole stockholder of the general partner of our Operating Partnership, we generally have the exclusive power under the partnership agreement to manage and conduct the business of our Operating Partnership, subject to certain limited approval and voting rights of the other limited partners. Our interest in our Operating Partnership entitles us to share in the profits and losses and cash distributions in proportion to our percentage ownership.
FundsJVs and JVsFund
InAt December 31, 2021, in addition to fifty-three office properties and teneleven residential properties wholly ownedwholly-owned by our Operating Partnership, we manage and own equity interests in:
•three unconsolidated Fundsconsolidated JVs, through which we and institutional investors own eightsixteen office properties in our core markets totaling 1.84.2 million square feet and one residential property with 350 apartments, and in which we own a weighted average of 62%46% at December 31, 20182021 based on square footage. We are entitled to (i) distributions based on invested capital as well as additional distributions based on cash net operating income, (ii) fees for property management and other services and (iii) reimbursement of certain acquisition-related expenses and certain other costs.
•one unconsolidated Fund through which we and institutional investors own two office properties in our core markets totaling 0.4 million square feet and in which we own 34% at December 31, 2021. We are entitled to (i) priority distributions, (ii) distributions based on invested capital, (iii) a carried interest if the investors’ distributions exceed a hurdle rate, (iv) fees for property management and other services and (v) reimbursement of certain costs.
three consolidated JVs through which we and institutional investors own ten office properties in our core markets totaling 2.8 million square feet and in which we own a weighted average of 28% at December 31, 2018 based on square footage. We are entitled to (i) distributions based on invested capital as well as (in the case of two of the JVs) additional distributions based on cash net operating income, (ii) fees for property management and other services and (iii) reimbursement of certain acquisition-related expenses and certain other costs.
The financial data in this Report presents our JVs on a consolidated basis and our Funds on an unconsolidated basis and our JVs on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP. See "Basis of Presentation" in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more information regarding the consolidation of our JVs.
On November 21, 2019, we restructured one of our previously unconsolidated Funds, after which it is treated as a consolidated JV in our financial statements. The results of the consolidated JV are included in our operating results from November 21, 2019 (before November 21, 2019, our share of the Fund's net income was included in our statements of operations in Income from unconsolidated Funds). In December 2020, we sold an 80 thousand square foot office property in Honolulu, which was held by one of our consolidated JVs in which we owned a two-thirds capital interest. The JV was subsequently dissolved before December 31, 2020 (and is therefore not included in the JV statistics disclosed above). The results of the consolidated JV are included in our operating results until it was dissolved in December 2020. See Note 3 and Note 6 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more information regarding these transactions.
Most of the property data in this Report is presented for our Total Portfolio, which includes the properties owned by our JVs and our Funds, as we believe this presentation assists in understanding our business.
Segments
We operate two business segments, our office segment and our multifamily segment. Our segments include the acquisition, development, ownership and management of office and multifamily real estate. The services for our office segment include primarily the rental of office space and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. The services for our multifamily segment include primarily the rental of apartments and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. See Note 15 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more information regarding our segments.
Taxation
We believe that we qualify, and we intend to continue to qualify, for taxation as a REIT under the Code, although we cannot assureprovide assurance that this has happened or will happen. See Item 1A "Risk Factors" of this Report for the risks we face regarding taxation as a REIT. The following summary is qualified in its entirety by the applicable Code provisions and related rules, and administrative and judicial interpretations. If we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we will generally not be required to pay federal corporate income taxes on the portion of our net income that is currently distributed to stockholders. This treatment substantially eliminates the “double taxation” (i.e., at the corporate and stockholder levels) that generally results from investment in a corporation. However, we will be required to pay federal income tax under certain circumstances.
The Code defines a REIT as a corporation, trust or association (i) which is managed by one or more trustees or directors; (ii) the beneficial ownership of which is evidenced by transferable shares or certificates of beneficial interest; (iii) which would be taxable but for Sections 856 through 860 of the Code as a domestic corporation; (iv) which is neither a financial institution nor an insurance company subject to certain provisions of the Code; (v) the beneficial ownership of which is held by 100 or more persons; (vi) of which, during the last half of each taxable year, not more than 50% in value of the outstanding stock is owned, actually or constructively, by five or fewer individuals; and (vii) which meets certain other tests, described below, regarding the amount of its distributions and the nature of its income and assets. The Code requires that conditions (i) to (iv) be met during the entire taxable year and that condition (v) be met during at least 335 days of a taxable year of 12 months, or during a proportionate part of a taxable year of less than 12 months.
There are two gross income requirements:requirements we must satisfy:
| |
i. | at least 75% of our gross income (excluding gross income from “prohibited transactions” as defined below and qualifying hedges) for each taxable year must be derived directly or indirectly from investments relating to real property or mortgages on real property or from certain types of temporary investment income, and |
| |
ii. | at least 95% of our gross income (excluding gross income from “prohibited transactions” and qualifying hedges) for each taxable year must be derived from income that qualifies under the 75% test or from other dividends, interest or gain from the sale or other disposition of stock or securities. In general, a “prohibited transaction” is a sale or other disposition of property (other than foreclosure property) held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business. |
i.at least 75% of our gross income (excluding gross income from “prohibited transactions” as defined below and qualifying hedges) for each taxable year must be derived directly or indirectly from investments relating to real property or mortgages on real property or from certain types of temporary investment income, and

In general, a “prohibited transaction” is a sale or other disposition of property (other than foreclosure property) held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business.
We must satisfy five asset tests at the close of each quarter of our taxable year:

i. | at least 75% of the value of our total assets must be represented by real estate assets including shares of stock of other REITs, debt instruments of publicly offered REITs, certain other stock or debt instruments purchased with the proceeds of a stock offering or long-term public debt offering by us (but only for the one-year period after such offering), cash, cash items and government securities, |
| |
ii. | not more than 25% of our total assets may be represented by securities other than those in the 75% asset class, |
| |
iii. | of the assets included in the 25% asset class, the value of any one issuer’s securities owned by us may not exceed 5% of the value of our total assets and we may not own more than 10% of the vote or value of the securities of any one issuer, in each case other than securities included under the 75% asset test above and interests in TRS or QRS, each as defined below, and in the case of the 10% value test, subject to certain other exceptions, |
| |
iv. | not more than 20% of the value of our total assets may be represented by securities of one or more TRS, and |
| |
v. | not more than 25% of the value of our total assets may be represented by nonqualified publicly offered REIT debt instruments. |
i.at least 75% of the value of our total assets must be represented by real estate assets including shares of stock of other REITs, debt instruments of publicly offered REITs, certain other stock or debt instruments purchased with the proceeds of a stock offering or long-term public debt offering by us (but only for the one-year period after such offering), cash, cash items and government securities,

iv.not more than 20% of the value of our total assets may be represented by securities of one or more TRS, and
v.not more than 25% of the value of our total assets may be represented by nonqualified publicly offered REIT debt instruments.
In order to qualify as a REIT, we are required to distribute dividends (other than capital gains dividends) to our stockholders equal to at least (A) the sum of (i) 90% of our “REIT taxable income” (computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction and our net capital gain) and (ii) 90% of the net income, if any (after tax), from foreclosure property, less (B) the sum of certain items of non-cash income. The distributions must be paid in the taxable year to which they relate, or in the following taxable year if declared before we timely file our tax return for such year, if paid on or before the first regular dividend payment date after such declaration and if we so elect and specify the dollar amount in our tax return. To the extent that we do not distribute all of our net long-term capital gains or distribute at least 90%, but less than 100%, of our REIT taxable income, we will be required to pay tax thereon at the regular corporate tax rates.rate. Furthermore, if we fail to distribute during each calendar year the sum of at least (i) 85% of our ordinary income for such year, (ii) 95% of our capital gains income for such year, and (iii) any undistributed taxable income from prior periods, we would be required to pay a 4% excise tax on the excess of such required distributions over the amounts actually distributed.
We own interests in various partnerships and limited liability companies. In the case of a REIT that is a partner in a partnership or a member of a limited liability company that is treated as a partnership under the Code, Treasury Regulations provide that for purposes of the REIT income and asset tests, the REIT will be deemed to own its proportionate share of the assets of the partnership or limited liability company (determined in accordance with its capital interest in the entity), subject to special rules related to the 10% asset test, and will be deemed to be entitled to the income of the partnership or limited liability company attributable to such share.
We own an interest in a subsidiary whichthat is intended to be treated as a QRS. The Code provides that a QRS will be ignored for federal income tax purposes and all assets, liabilities and items of income, deduction and credit of the QRS will be treated as our assets, liabilities and items of income. We hold certain of our properties through subsidiaries that have elected to be taxed as REITs. We also wholly own interestsan interest in certain corporationsa corporation which havehas elected to be treated as TRSs.a TRS. A REIT may own more than 10% of the voting stock and value of the securities of a corporation whichthat jointly elects with the REIT to be a TRS, provided certain requirements are met. A TRS generally may engage in any business, including the provision of customary or non-customary services to tenants of its parent REIT and of others, except a TRS may not manage or operate a hotel or healthcare facility. A TRS is treated as a regular corporation and is subject to federal income tax and applicable state income and franchise taxes at regular corporate rates. In addition, a 100% tax may be imposed on a REIT if its rental, service or other agreements with its TRS, or the TRS agreements with the REIT’s tenants, are not on arm’s-length terms.
We may be required to pay state or local tax in various state or local jurisdictions, including those in which we own properties or otherwise transact business or reside. The state and local tax treatment of us and our stockholders may not conform to the federal income tax consequences discussed above. We may also be subject to certain taxes applicable to REITs, including taxes in lieu of disqualification as a REIT, on undistributed income, and on income from prohibited transactions.
In addition, if we acquire any asset from a corporation that is or has been a C corporation in a transaction in which our tax basis in the asset is less than the fair market value of the asset, in each case determined as of the date on which we acquired the asset, and we subsequently recognize gain on the disposition of the asset during the five yearfive-year period beginning on the date on which we acquired the asset, then we generally will be required to pay tax at the highest regular corporate tax rate on this gain to the extent of the excess of (i) the fair market value of the asset over (ii) our adjusted tax basis in the asset, in each case determined as of the date on which we acquired the asset.
Insurance
We carry comprehensive liability, fire, extended coverage, business interruption and rental loss insurance covering all of the properties in our portfolio under a blanket insurance policy.policies. We believe the policy specifications and insured limits are appropriate and adequate given the relative risk of loss and the cost of the coverage and industry practice. See Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Report for the risks we face regarding insurance.
Competition
We compete with a number of developers, owners and operators of office and multifamily real estate, many of which own properties similar to ours in the same markets in which our properties are located. See Item 2 of this Report for more information about our properties. See Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Report for the risks we face regarding competition.
Regulation
Our properties are subject to various covenants, laws, ordinances and regulations, including regulations relating to common areas, fire and safety requirements, various environmental laws, the ADA, eviction moratoriums related to COVID-19, and rent control laws. See Item 1A “Risk Factors” of this Report for the risks we face regarding laws and regulations.
Environmental Sustainability
Our approach
We actively manage our operations in an environmentally sustainable manner.On an annual basis, our Board of Directors assesses material climate-related risks by assigning numeric values based on both the likelihood of occurrence and the potential impact, with mitigation approaches considered and evaluated. Throughout the year, our Corporate Sustainability Committee, led by the Chairman of our Board of Directors and our COO, oversees our policies and operational controls for environmental, health, safety and social risks, and monitors our progress and results. Every month, our Director of Engineering Services and our six Regional Engineers meet to monitor and implement the policies set by our Corporate Sustainability Committee. Our Regional Engineers hold monthly meetings with each Building Engineer in their respective regions to review specific building operating issues and opportunities for improvement. We also use external resources to provide critical expertise, tools and resources for our sustainability program.
We engage with our stakeholders to align sustainability efforts and improve the efficiency and health of our business and communities. We share our sustainability goals and standards with our tenants, vendors and suppliers and work closely with them to gather information, develop solutions, and implement technologies and programs to achieve our goals. In operatingour communities, we seek input from other stakeholders and participate in local Business Improvement Districts.We have integrated sustainability into our property management practices, tenant improvement build-outs and meetings with existing and prospective tenants.
Our sustainability program covers five key areas:
•Energy Usage
Our actual energy consumption from year to year is impacted by many factors, such as weather, occupancy in our buildings and runningactivities of our business,tenants. Many of these factors are beyond our control. However, we actively workcan and do seek to promotemake our operations in a sustainable and responsible manner. Our sustainabilitybuildings more energy efficient.
Some of our initiatives to reduce our consumption include items such as real time energy monitoring software, LED lighting retrofitting, and new energy management systems, variable frequency drives in our motors, electricity co-generation, energy efficiency, recycling and water conservation. systems.As a result of our efforts, over 95%88% of our eligible office space is ENERGYin 2020 qualified for "ENERGY STAR certifiedCertification" by the EPA as having energy efficiency in the top 25% of buildings nationwide. Asnationwide (our 2021 ENERGY STAR scores were not yet available as of the date of this Report,Report).
Our energy and electricity are provided by utility providers through the EPA is evaluatinggrid (LA Department of Water and Power, Southern California Edison, and Hawaii Electric Company). We estimate the percentage of renewable energy provided by our utility providers was approximately one-third in 2019 (the most recent available data).
•Water Usage
We have undertaken a new scoring systemnumber of initiatives to conserve water across our portfolio. Our buildings use low flow faucets and toilets, and we have also saved water by using waterless urinals. Where permitted, we try to recycle used water (by law, we cannot recycle most of the water used in our buildings since it must be fit for human consumption). In a few of our buildings where groundwater naturally seeps into our subterranean parking garages, we treat the ENERGY STAR certification.water before pumping it back into the ground.
Segments•Waste
We operate twoRecycling: In partnership with our vendors and tenants, we have implemented business segments: the acquisition, development, ownershipwaste and management of office real estate, and the acquisition, development, ownership and management of multifamily real estate. The services fore-waste recycling programs (we do not generate any production waste or packaging waste) at our office segment include primarily rental of office space and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. The services for our multifamily segment include primarily rental of apartments and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. See Note 14 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more information regarding our segments.properties.
Non-Hazardous Waste: Our routine operations only generate modest amounts of ancillary waste, primarily from typical operations in an office setting. A major source of our waste is the debris generated by refurbishment of our buildings, particularly in recurring tenant improvements that can be generated when a new tenant moves into a building. To minimize that waste, we attempt to construct tenant improvements that will be usable by future tenants, and to fit tenants into existing spaces without substantial refurbishment.
Employees
Hazardous Waste: Our operations only generate modest ancillary amounts of hazardous waste (mostly office supplies), which we dispose of in accordance with all applicable waste regulations. Similarly, our tenants are almost entirely limited by their leases to general office uses that prohibit the use of additional hazardous wastes and are required by their leases to comply with all applicable waste regulations.
•Air Emissions
Although our operations do not create significant air emissions such as nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur oxides (Sox), volatile organic compounds (VOCs) or particulate matter (PM), our Los Angeles properties produce a small amount of emissions from stationary sources such as natural gas boilers. We have been working to reduce those emissions by upgrading to lower emission models. We expect to reduce the indirect air emissions from our utility suppliers by reducing our per square foot electricity usage.
We also encourage sustainable transportation choices by our tenants: We have installed over 200 Electric Vehicle charging stations at our properties and have plans to add additional stations. All of our buildings provide ample bicycle parking.
•Development
Ground up development is a small but growing part of our business. So far, all our development projects have been adding additional density in existing office or apartment community sites we already owned. We are committed to selecting development sites that are not in environmentally protected areas or areas of high biodiversity, and strive to use brownfield sites instead of greenfield sites.
At one of our current residential development projects in Brentwood we are investing significant additional capital to building a one acre park on Wilshire Boulevard that will be available to the public, providing urban green space as well as a valuable amenity to the surrounding properties and community.
Human Capital
Central to our long-term strategy is attracting, developing and retaining the best talent with the right skills to drive our success. Our ability to maintain our competitive position is largely dependent upon the skill and effort of our executive officers and key personnel, who have significant real estate industry experience, strong industry reputations and networks, and assist us in identifying acquisition, disposition, development and borrowing opportunities, negotiating with tenants and sellers of properties, and managing our development projects and the operations of our properties. As of December 31, 2018,2021, we employed approximately 670700 people.
We promote an atmosphere of openness, respect and trust and bring a sense of teamwork and inclusion to all we do. We recognize that having a range of experiences, backgrounds and perspectives allows us to find new ways of doing things. We make sure to walk the talk in fostering a workplace culture that encourages and empowers all our employees to have a voice and fulfill their potential.
We value and advance the diversity and inclusion of the people with whom we work. We are committed to equal opportunity in workplaces that are free from discrimination or harassment on the basis of race, sex, color, ancestry, citizenship, marital status, family status, national or social origin, ethnicity, religion, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender identification or expression, political opinion or any other status protected by applicable law. Recruitment, hiring, placement, development, training, compensation and advancement may not be based on any of these factors, but should instead be based on factors such as qualifications, performance, skills and experience.
We know that the first step in hiring and retaining the best talent is to create safe and inspiring workplaces where people feel valued. We offer competitive compensation and benefits to all regular full-time employees, including but not limited to paid holiday, vacation, and sick time, retirement savings plans and medical, dental, and vision coverage. We also offer a very generous equity compensation program that empowers our employees to act and feel like owners, not just employees. In 2021, we provided equity compensation to approximately two-thirds of our approximately 700 employees.
The health and safety of our employees, tenants, and vendors is of the utmost importance to us. We adhere to leading health and safety standards across our portfolio, and each year, we require all our employees to complete safety training and also provide them seminars on various health topics free of charge. The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on our human capital management during 2020 and 2021. We are deemed an essential business and we moved quickly to institute safety protocols and procedures to keep our properties open and to protect our tenants and employees who continued to work on site and at our headquarters.
Principal Executive Offices
Our principal executive offices are located in the building we own at 1299 Ocean Avenue, Suite 1000, Santa Monica, California 90401 (telephone 310-255-7700).

Item 1A. Risk Factors
The following risk factors are what we believe to be the most significant risk factors that could adversely affect our business and operations, including, without limitation, our financial condition, REIT status, results of operations and cash flows, our ability to service our debt and pay dividends to our stockholders, our ability to capitalize on business opportunities as they arise, our ability to raise capital, and the market price of our common stock. This is not an exhaustive list, and additional risk factors could adversely affect our business and financial performance. We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment and new risk factors emerge from time to time. It is therefore not possible for us to predict all such risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
This discussion of risk factors includes many forward-looking statements. For cautions about relying on forward-looking statements see “Forward Looking Statements” at the beginning of this Report.
Our risk factors are grouped into the following categories:
•Risks Related to Our Properties and Our Business;
•Risks Related to Our Organization and Structure;
•Risks Related to Taxes and Our Status as a REIT;
•General Risks.
Risks Related to Our Properties and Our Business
The COVID-19 global pandemic has and could continue to adversely affect our business, financial position, results of operations, cash flows, our ability to service our debt, our ability to pay dividends to our stockholders, our REIT status, our ability to capitalize on business opportunities as they arise, our ability to raise capital, and/or the market price of our common stock.
The COVID-19 global pandemic has led to severe disruption to general economic activities as governments and businesses take actions to mitigate the public health crisis. The extent to which the pandemic ultimately impacts our business will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of each variant, its severity, the actions taken to contain the virus, the emergence and impact of future virus variants, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions resume. Even if the pandemic subsides, we may continue to experience significant impacts to our business as a result of its global economic impact, including any resulting economic recession.
Not all of the impacts of the pandemic can be predicted at this time, however, some of the potential impacts from the pandemic could include:
•Government actions, including but not limited to lease enforcement moratoriums, that reduce or otherwise hinder our ability to collect rent promptly or at all, adversely affect tenant demand, increase our costs or otherwise reduce our collections;
•Supply chain, governmental or other disruptions that adversely affect construction or our operations and/or those of our tenants;
•Economic pressure on our tenants, which could lead to lower collections or defaults;
•Reduced or different tenant demand, leading to lower occupancy and/or rental rates in our buildings;
•Reduced attendance in our buildings, resulting in lower parking revenues;
•Increases in expenses and/or capital investments or decreases in tenant demand as a result of safety concerns;
•Increased risks of IT disruptions and/or cyber attacks as a result of our employees or tenants working remotely;
•Disruption of our operations as a result of the illness or social distancing of our employees or tenants;
•Impact on the labor market, which could lead to higher employee turnover and increased labor costs;
•Changes in the financial markets, the value of our properties and/or our cash flows which adversely affect our stock price and/or our tenants' access to needed debt or equity capital on reasonable or any terms; and/or
•Increases in the cost or availability, or changes to the terms, of insurance.
All of our properties are located in Los Angeles County, California and Honolulu, Hawaii, and we are therefore exposed to greater risk than if we owned a more geographically diverse portfolio. Our properties in Los Angeles County are concentrated in certain submarkets, exposing us to risks associated with those specific areas.
Because of the geographic concentration of our properties, we are susceptible to adverse economic and regulatory developments, as well as natural disasters, in the markets and submarkets where we operate, including, for example, economic slowdowns, industry slowdowns, business downsizing, business relocations, increases in real estate and other taxes, changes in regulation, earthquakes, floods, droughts and wildfires. California is also regarded as being more litigious, regulated and taxed than many other states.
Our operating performance is subject to risks associated with the real estate industry.
Real estate investments are subject to various risks, fluctuations and cycles in value and demand, many of which are beyond our control. These events include, but are not limited to:
•adverse changes in international, national or local economic conditions;
•inability to rent space on favorable terms, including possible market pressures to offer tenants rent abatements, tenant improvements, early termination rights or below-market renewal options;
•adverse changes in financial conditions of actual or potential investors, buyers, sellers or tenants;
•inability to collect rent from tenants;
•competition from other real estate investors, including other real estate operating companies, publicly-traded REITs and institutional investment funds;
•reduced tenant demand for office space and residential units from matters such as (i) changestrends in space utilization, (ii) changes in the relative popularity of our properties, (iii) the type of space we provide or (iv) purchasing versus leasing;
•reduced demand for parking space due to the impact of technology such as self driving cars, and the increasing popularity of car ride sharing services;
•increases in the supply of office space and residential units;
•fluctuations in interest rates and the availability of credit, which could adversely affect our ability to obtain financing on favorable terms or at all;
•increases in expenses (or our reduced ability to recover expenses from our tenants), including insurance costs, labor costs (such as the unionization of our employees or the employees of any parties with whom we contract for services to our buildings), energy prices, real estate assessments and other taxes, as well as costs of compliance with laws, regulations and governmental policies;
•utility disruptions;
•the effects of rent controls, stabilization laws and other laws or covenants regulating rental rates;
•changes in, and changes in enforcement of, laws, regulations and governmental policies, including, without limitation, health, safety, environmental, zoning and tax laws, governmental fiscal policies and the ADA;
•legislative uncertainty related to federal and state spending and tax policy;
•difficulty in operating properties effectively;
•acquiring undesirable properties; and
•inability to dispose of properties at appropriate times or at favorable prices.
We have a substantial amount of debt, which exposes us to interest rate fluctuation risk and the risk of not being able to refinance our debt, which in turn could expose us to the risk of default under our debt obligations.
We have a substantial amount of debt and we may incur significant additional debt for various purposes, including, without limitation, to fund future property acquisitions and development activities, reposition properties and to fund our operations. See Note 78 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more detail regarding our consolidated debt. See "Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements" in Item 7 of this Report for more detail regarding our unconsolidated debt.
Our substantial indebtedness, and the limitations and other constraints imposed on us by our debt agreements, especially during economic downturns when credit is harder to obtain, could adversely affect us, including the following:
•our cash flows may be insufficient to meet our required principal and interest payments;
•servicing our borrowings may leave us with insufficient cash to operate our properties or to pay the distributions necessary to maintain our REIT qualification;
•we may be unable to borrow additional funds as needed or on favorable terms, which could, among other things, adversely affect our ability to capitalize upon acquisition opportunities;
•we may be unable to refinance our indebtedness at maturity or the refinancing terms may be less favorable than the terms of our existing indebtedness;
•we may be forced to dispose of one or more of our properties, possibly on disadvantageous terms;
•we may violate any restrictive covenants in our loan documents, which could entitle the lenders to accelerate our debt obligations;
•we may be unable to hedge floating rate debt, counterparties may fail to honor their obligations under our hedge agreements, the hedge agreements may not effectively hedge the interest rate fluctuation risk, and, upon the expiration of any hedge agreements we do have, we will be exposed to the then-existing market rates of interest and future interest rate volatility with respect to debt that is currently hedged; we could also be declared in default on our hedge agreements if we default on the underlying debt that we are hedging;
•we may default on our obligations and the lenders or mortgagees may foreclose on our properties that secure their loans and receive an assignment of rents and leases;
•our default under any of our indebtedness with cross default provisions could result in a default on other indebtedness; and
•any foreclosure on our properties could also create taxable income without accompanying cash proceeds, which could adversely affect our ability to meet the REIT distribution requirements imposed by the Code.Code; and
•most of our floating rate debt and related hedges are indexed to USD-LIBOR, any regulatory changes which impact the USD-LIBOR benchmark, such as the transition to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (see Item 7A - "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk" in this Report) or other indexes, could impact our borrowing costs or the effectiveness of our hedges.
The rents we receive from new leases may be less than our asking rents, and we may experience rent roll-down from time to time.
As a result of various factors, such as competitive pricing pressure in our submarkets, adverse conditions in the Los Angeles County or Honolulu real estate market, general economic downturns, or the desirability of our properties compared to other properties in our submarkets, the rents we receive on new leases could be less than our in-place rents.
In order to successfully compete against other properties, we must spend moneyneed to maintain, repair, and renovate our properties, which reduces our cash flows.
If our properties are not as attractive to current and prospective tenants in terms of rent, services, condition, or location as properties owned by our competitors, we could lose tenants or suffer lower rental rates. As a result, we may from time to time be required to incur significant capital expenditures to maintain the competitiveness of our properties. There can be no assurances that any such expenditures would result in higher occupancy or rental rates, or deter existing tenants from relocating to properties owned by our competitors.
We face intense competition, which could adversely impact the occupancy and rental rates of our properties.
We compete with a number of developers, owners and operators of office and multifamily real estate, many of which own properties similar to ours in the same markets in which our properties are located. If our competitors offer space at rental rates below current market rates, or below the rental rates that we currently charge our tenants, or if they offer tenants significant rent or other concessions, we may lose existing or potential tenants and may not be able to replace them, and we may be pressured to reduce our rental rates below those we currently charge or offer more substantial rent abatements, tenant improvements, early termination rights or below-market renewal options in order to retain tenants when our tenants’ leases expire.
Potential losses, including from adverse weather conditions, natural disasters and title claims, may not be covered by insurance.
Our business operations in Los Angeles County, California and Honolulu, Hawaii are susceptible to, and could be significantly affected by, adverse weather conditions and natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, volcanoes, drought, wind, floods, landslides and fires. The likelihood of such disasters may be increased as a result of climate changes. changes, and climate changes could also have other impacts such as rising sea levels, which could impact our properties in Honolulu.
Adverse weather conditions, and natural disasters and climate change impacts could cause significant damage to our properties or to the economies of the regions in which they are located, the risk of which is enhanced by the concentration of our properties’ locations. Our insurance coverage may not be adequate to cover business interruption or losses resulting from adverse weather or natural disasters. In addition, our insurance policies include substantial self-insurance portions and significant deductibles and co-payments for such events, and we are subject to the availability of insurance in the US and the pricing thereof. As a result, we may incur significant costs in the event of adverse weather conditions and natural disasters.
Most of our properties are located in Southern California, an area subject to an increased risk of earthquakes. While we presently carry earthquake insurance on our properties, the amount of our earthquake insurance coverage may not be sufficient to fully cover losses from earthquakes. We may reduce or discontinue earthquake or any other insurance coverage on some or all of our properties in the future if the cost of premiums for any of these policies in our judgment exceeds the value of the coverage discounted for the risk of loss.
We do not carry insurance for certain losses, such as losses caused by certain environmental conditions, asbestos, riots or war. In addition, our title insurance policies generally only insure the value of a property at the time of purchase, and we have not and do not intend to increase our title insurance coverage as the market value of our portfolio increases. As a result, we may not have sufficient coverage against all losses that we may experience, including from adverse title claims.
If we experience a loss that is uninsured or which exceeds policy limits, we could incur significant costs and lose the capital invested in the damaged properties as well as the anticipated future cash flows from those properties. If the damaged properties are encumbered, we may continue to be liable for the indebtedness, even if these properties were irreparably damaged.
If any of our properties were destroyed or damaged, then we might not be permitted to rebuild many of those properties to their existing height or size at their existing location under current zoning and land use regulations. In the event that we experience a substantial or comprehensive loss of one of our properties, we may not be able to rebuild such property to its existing specifications and otherwise may have to upgrade such property to meet current code requirements.
New regulations in the submarkets in which we operate could require us to make safety improvements to our buildings, for example requiring us to retrofit our buildings to better withstand earthquakes, and we could incur significant costs complying with those regulations.
Terrorism and war could harm our business and operating results.
The possibility of future terrorist attacks or war could have a negative impact on our operations, even if they are not directed at our properties and even if they never actually occur. Terrorist attacks can also substantially affect the availability and price of insurance coverage for certain types of damages or occurrences, and our insurance policies for terrorism include large deductibles and co-payments. The lack of sufficient insurance for these types of acts could expose us to significant losses.
Security breaches through cyber attacks, cyber intrusions or otherwise, as well as other significant disruptions of our IT networks and related systems could harm our business.
We face risks associated with security breaches, whether through cyber attacks or cyber intrusions over the Internet, malware, computer viruses, attachments to e-mails, persons inside our organization or persons with access to systems inside our organization and other significant disruptions of our IT networks and related systems. The risk of a security breach or disruption, particularly through cyber attack or cyber intrusion, including by computer hackers, foreign governments and cyber terrorists, has generally increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks and intrusions from around the world have increased. Our IT networks and related systems are essential to the operation of our business and our ability to perform day-to-day operations (including managing our building systems) and, in some cases, may be critical to the operations of certain of our tenants. Although we make efforts to maintain the security and integrity of these types of IT networks and related systems, and have implemented various measures to manage the risk of a security breach or disruption, there can be no assurance that our efforts will be effective in preventing attempted security breaches or disruptions. Even the most well protected information, networks, systems and facilities remain potentially vulnerable because the techniques used in such attempted security breaches evolve and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, and in some cases are designed not be detected and, in fact, may not be detected. Accordingly, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate security barriers or other preventative measures, and thus it is impossible for us to entirely mitigate this risk. A security breach or other significant disruption involving our IT networks and related systems could have an adverse effect on our business, for example:
Disruption to our networks and systems and thus our operations and/or those of our tenants or vendors;
Misstated financial reports, violations of loan covenants, missed reporting deadlines and missed permitting deadlines;
Inability to comply with laws and regulations;
Unauthorized access to, destruction, loss, theft, misappropriation or release of proprietary, confidential, sensitive or otherwise valuable information of ours or others, which others could be used to compete against us or for disruptive, destructive or otherwise harmful purposes;
Rendering us unable to maintain the building systems relied upon by our tenants;
The requirement of significant management attention and resources to remedy any damages that result;
Claims for breach of contract, damages, credits, penalties or termination of leases or other agreements; and
Damage to our reputation among our tenants, investors, or others.
We may be unable to renew leases or lease vacant space.
We may be unable to renew our tenants' leases, in which case we must find new tenants. To attract new tenants or retain existing tenants, particularly in periods of recession, we may have to accept rental rates below our existing rental rates or offer substantial rent abatements, tenant improvements, early termination rights or below-market renewal options. Accordingly, portions of our office and multifamily properties may remain vacant for extended periods of time. In addition, some existing leases currently provide tenants with options to renew the terms of their leases at rates that are below the current market rates or to terminate their leases prior to the expiration date thereof. We actively pursue opportunities for what we believe to be well-located and high quality buildings that may be in a transitional phase due to current or impending vacancies. We cannot assure that any such vacancies will be filled following a property acquisition, or that new tenant leases will be executed at or above market rates.
As of December 31, 2018, 8.3%2021, 12.3% of the square footage in our total office portfolio was available for lease and 9.3%12.9% was scheduled to expire in 2019.2022. As of December 31, 2018, 1.0%2021, 0.7% of the units in our multifamily portfolio were available for lease, and substantially all of the leases in our multifamily portfolio must be renewed within the next year.

Our business strategy for our office portfolio focuses on leasing to smaller-sized tenants which may present greater credit risks.
Our business strategy for our office portfolio focuses on leasing to smaller-sized tenants, which may present greater credit risks because they are more susceptible to economic downturns than larger tenants, and may be more likely to cancel or not renew their leases.
Real estate investments are generally illiquid.
Our real estate investments are relatively difficult to sell quickly. Return of capital and realization of gains, if any, from an investment will generally occur upon disposition or refinancing of the underlying property. We may not be able to realize our investment objectives by sale or be able to refinance at attractive prices within any given period of time. We may also not be able to complete any exit strategy. Any number of factors could increase these risks, such as (i) weak market conditions, (ii) the lack of an established market for a property, (iii) changes in the financial condition or prospects of prospective buyers, (iv) changes in local, national or international economic conditions, and (v) changes in laws, regulations or fiscal policies. Furthermore, certain properties may be adversely affected by contractual rights, such as rights of first offer or ground leases.
We may incur significant costs complyingto comply with laws, regulations and covenants that are applicable to our properties.covenants.
The properties in our portfolio are subject to various covenants, federal, state and local laws, ordinances, regulatory requirements, including permitting and licensing requirements, various environmental laws, the ADA and rent control laws. Such laws and regulations, including municipal or local ordinances, zoning restrictions and restrictive covenants imposed by community developers may restrict our use of our properties and may require us to obtain approval from local officials or community standards organizations at any time with respect to our properties, including prior to acquiring a property or when undertaking renovations of any of our existing properties. Among other things, these restrictions may relate to fire and safety, seismic, asbestos-cleanup or hazardous material abatement requirements. There can be no assurance that existing laws and regulations will not adversely affect us or the timing or cost of any future acquisitions, developments or renovations, or that additional regulations that increase such delays or result in additional costs will not be adopted. Under the ADA, our properties must meet federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons to the extent that such properties are “public accommodations”. The costs of our on-going efforts to comply with these laws and regulations are substantial. Moreover, as we have not conducted a comprehensive audit or investigation of all of our properties to determine our compliance with applicable laws and regulations, we may be liable for investigation and remediation costs, penalties, and/or damages, which could be substantial and could adversely affect our ability to sell or rent our property or to borrow using such property as collateral.
Because we own real property, we are subject to extensive environmental regulations, which create uncertainty regarding future environmental expenditures and liabilities.
Environmental laws regulate, and impose liability for, releases of hazardous or toxic substances into the environment. Under various provisions of these laws, an owner or operator of real estate may be liable for costs related to soil or groundwater contamination on, in, or migrating to or from its property. Persons who arrange for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances may be liable for the costs of cleaning up contamination at the disposal site. Such laws often impose liability regardless of whether the person knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of the hazardous or toxic substances that caused the contamination. The presence of, or contamination resulting from, any of these substances, or the failure to properly remediate them, may adversely affect our ability to sell or rent our property or to borrow using the property as collateral. Persons exposed to hazardous or toxic substances may sue for personal injury damages, for example, some laws impose liability for release of or exposure to asbestos-containing materials, a substance known to be present in a number of our buildings. In other cases, some of our properties have been (or may have been) impacted by contamination from past operations or from off-site sources. As a result, in connection with our current or former ownership, operation, management and development of real properties, we may be potentially liable for investigation and cleanup costs, penalties, and damages under environmental laws.
Although most of our properties have been subjected to preliminary environmental assessments, known as Phase I assessments, by independent environmental consultants that identify certain liabilities, Phase I assessments are limited in scope, and may not include or identify all potential environmental liabilities or risks associated with the property. Unless required by applicable laws or regulations, we may not further investigate, remedy or ameliorate the liabilities disclosed in the Phase I assessments. We cannot assure that these or other environmental studies identified all potential environmental liabilities, or that we will not incur material environmental liabilities in the future. If we do incur material environmental liabilities in the future, we may face significant remediation costs and may find it difficult to sell any affected properties. See Note 17 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more detail regarding our buildings that contain asbestos.
Rent control or rent stabilization legislation and other regulatory restrictions may limit our ability to increase rents and pass through new or increased operating costs to our tenants.
We presently expect to continue operating and acquiring properties in areas that have adopted laws and regulations imposing restrictions on the timing or amount of rent increases or have imposed regulations relating to low- and moderate-income housing. Currently, neither
California nor Hawaii have state mandated rent control, butand various municipalities within Southern California, including the cities of Los Angeles and Santa Monica where our properties are located, have enacted rent control legislation. Additionally, portionsAll of the Honoluluour multifamily market are subject to low- and moderate-income housing regulations and all but one of the properties in our Los Angeles County multifamily portfolio are affected by these laws and regulations. Under current California law we are able to increase rents to market rates once a tenant vacates a rent-controlled unit,unit; however, increases in rental rates for renewing tenants are limited by California, Los Angeles and Santa Monica rent control regulations.
Hawaii does not have state mandated rent control, however portions of the Honolulu multifamily market are subject to low- and moderate-income housing regulations. We have agreed to rent specified percentages of the units at some of our Honolulu multifamily properties to persons with income below specified levels in exchange for certain tax benefits.
These laws and regulations can (i) limit our ability to charge market rents, increase rents, evict tenants or recover increases in our operating expenses, (ii) negatively impact our ability to attract higher-paying tenants, (iii) require us to incur costs for reporting and compliance, and (iv) make it more difficult for us to dispose of properties in certain circumstances. Any failure to comply with these regulations could result in fines, penalties and/or the loss of certain tax benefits and the forfeiture of rents.
We may be unable to complete acquisitions that would grow our business, or successfully integrate and operate acquired properties.
Our planned growth strategy includes the disciplined acquisition of properties as opportunities arise. Our ability to acquire properties on favorable terms and to successfully integrate and operate them is subject to significant risks, including the following:
•we may be unable to acquire desired properties because of competition from other real estate investors, including other real estate operating companies, publicly-traded REITs and investment funds;
•competition from other potential acquirers may significantly increase the purchase price of a desired property;
•we may acquire properties that are not accretive to our results upon acquisition or we may not successfully manage and lease them up to meet our expectations;
•we may be unable to generate sufficient cash from operations, or obtain the necessary debt or equity financing to consummate an acquisition or, if obtained, the financing may not be on favorable terms;
•cash flows from the acquired properties may be insufficient to service the related debt financing;
•we may need to spend more than we budgeted to make necessary improvements or renovations to acquired properties;
•we may spend significant time and money on potential acquisitions that we do not close;
•the process of acquiring or pursuing the acquisition of a property may divert the attention of our senior management team from our existing business operations;
•we may be unable to quickly and efficiently integrate new acquisitions, particularly acquisitions of portfolios of properties, into our existing operations;
•occupancy and rental rates of acquired properties may be less than expected; and
•we may acquire properties without recourse, or with limited recourse, for liabilities, whether known or unknown, such as clean-up of environmental contamination, claims by tenants, vendors or other persons against the former owners of the properties and claims for indemnification by general partners, directors, officers and others indemnified by the former owners of the properties.
We may be unable to successfully expand our operations into new markets and submarkets.
If the opportunity arises, we may explore acquisitions of properties in new markets. The risks applicable to our ability to acquire, integrate and operate properties in our current markets are also applicable to our ability to acquire, integrate and operate properties in new markets. In addition to these risks, we will not possess the same level of familiarity with the dynamics and market conditions of any new markets that we may enter, which could adversely affect our ability to expand into those markets. We may be unable to build a significant market share or achieve a desired return on our investments in new markets.
We are exposed to risks associated with property development.
We engage in development and redevelopment activities with respect to certain of our properties. To the extent that we do so, we are subject to certain risks, including the following:
•We may not complete a development or redevelopment project on schedule or within budgeted amounts (as a result of risks beyond our control, such as weather, labor conditions, permitting issues, material shortages and price increases);
•We may be unable to lease the developed or redeveloped properties at budgeted rental rates or lease up the property within budgeted time frames;
•We may devote time and expend funds on development or redevelopment of properties that we may not complete;
•We may encounter delays or refusals in obtaining all necessary zoning, land use, and other required entitlements, and building, occupancy and other required governmental permits and authorizations;authorizations, and our costs to comply with the conditions imposed by such permits and authorizations could increase;
•We may encounter delays, refusals and unforeseen cost increases resulting from third-party litigation or objections; and
•We may fail to obtain the financial results expected from properties we develop or redevelop; and
We have developed and redeveloped properties in the past, however only in a limited manner in recent years, which could adversely affect our ability to develop or redevelop properties or to achieve our expected returns.
We are exposed to certain risks when we enter into JVs or issue securities of our subsidiaries, including our Operating Partnership.
We have and may in the future develop or acquire properties with, or raise capital from, third parties through partnerships, JVs or other entities, or through acquiring or disposing of non-controlling interests in, or sharing responsibility for managing the affairs of, a property, partnership, JV or other entity. This may subject us to risks that may not be present with other methods of ownership, including for example the following:
•We may not be able to exercise sole decision-making authority regarding the properties, partnership, JV or other entity, which would allow for impasses on decisions that could restrict our ability to sell or transfer our interests in such entity or such entity’s ability to transfer or sell its assets;
•Partners or co-venturers may default on their obligations including those related to capital contributions, debt financing or interest rate swaps, which could delay acquisition, construction or development of a property or increase our financial commitment to the partnership or JV;
•Conflicts of interests with our partners or co-venturers as result of matters such as different needs for liquidity, assessments of the market or tax objectives; ownership of competing interests in other properties; and other business interests, policies or objectives that are competitive or inconsistent with ours;
•If any such jointly owned or managed entity takes or expects to take actions that could jeopardize our status as a REIT or require us to pay tax, we may suffer significantly, including having to dispose of our interest in such entity (if that is possible) or even losing our status as a REIT;
•Our assumptions regarding the tax impact of any structure or transaction could prove to be incorrect, and we could be exposed to significant taxable income, property tax reassessments or other liabilities, including any liability to third parties that we may assume as part of such transaction or otherwise;
•Disputes between us and partners or co-venturers may result in litigation or arbitration that would increase our expenses, affect our ability to develop or operate a property and/or prevent our officers and/or directors from focusing their time and effort on our business;
•We may, in certain circumstances, be liable for the actions of our third-party partners or co-venturers; and
•We may not be able to raise capital as needed from institutional investors or sovereign wealth funds, or on terms that are favorable.
If we default on the ground lease to which one of our properties is subject, our business could be adversely affected.
Some of our properties may be subject to a ground lease. If we default under the terms of such a lease, we may be liable for damages and could lose our ownership interest in the property.
We may not have sufficient cash available for distribution to stockholders at expected levels in the future.
Our distributions could exceed our cash generated from operations. If necessary, we may fund the difference from our existing cash balances or additional borrowings. If our available cash were to decline significantly below our taxable income, we could lose our REIT status unless we could borrow to make such distributions or make any required distributions in common stock.
Our property taxes could increase due to property tax rate changes, reassessments or changes in property tax laws, which would adversely impact our cash flows.
We are required to pay property taxes for our properties, which could increase as property tax rates increase or as our properties are assessed or reassessed by taxing authorities. In California, under current law, reassessment occurs primarily as a result of a “change in ownership”. A potential reassessment may take a considerable amount of time, during which the property taxing authorities make a determination of the occurrence of a “change of ownership”, as well as the actual reassessed value. In addition, from time to time, there have been proposals to base property taxes on commercial properties on their current market value, without any limit based on purchase price. If any similar proposal were adopted, the property taxes we pay could increase substantially. In California, pursuant to an existing state law commonly referred to as Proposition 13, properties are reassessed to market value only at the time of change in ownership or completion of construction, and thereafter, annual property reassessments are limited to 2% of previously assessed values. As a result, Proposition 13 generally results in significant below-market assessed values over time. From time to time, including recently, lawmakers and political coalitions have initiated efforts to repeal or amend Proposition 13 to eliminate its application to commercial and industrial properties. If successful, a repeal of Proposition 13 could substantially increase the assessed values and property taxes for our properties in California.
If a transaction intended to qualify as a Section 1031 Exchange is later determined to be taxable or if we are unable to identify and complete the acquisition of a suitable replacement property to effect a Section 1031 Exchange, we may face adverse consequences, and if the laws applicable to such transactions are amended or repealed, we may not be able to dispose of properties on a tax deferred basis.
From time to time we may dispose of properties in transactions that are intended to qualify as tax deferred exchanges under Section 1031 of the Code (Section 1031 Exchanges). It is possible that the qualification of a transaction as a Section 1031 Exchange could be successfully challenged and determined to be currently taxable. In such cases, our taxable income would increase as would the amount of distributions we are required to make to satisfy our REIT distribution requirements. This could increase the dividend income to our stockholders by reducing any return of capital they receive. In some circumstances, we may be required to pay additional dividends or, in lieu of that, corporate income tax, possibly including interest and penalties. As a result, we may be required to borrow in order to pay additional dividends or taxes, and the payment of such taxes could cause us to have less cash available to distribute to our stockholders. If a Section 1031 Exchange were later to be determined to be taxable, we may be
required to amend our tax returns for the applicable year in question, including any reports we distributed to our stockholders. It is possible that legislation could be enacted that could modify or repeal the laws with respect to Section 1031 Exchanges, which could make it more difficult or not possible for us to dispose of properties on a tax deferred basis.
We face risks associated with contractual counterparties being designated “Prohibited Persons” by the Office of Foreign Assets Control.
The OFAC of the US Department of the Treasury maintains a list of persons designated as terrorists or who are otherwise blocked or banned (“Prohibited Persons”). The OFAC regulations and other laws prohibit conducting business or engaging in transactions with Prohibited Persons. Some of our agreements require us and the other party to comply with the OFAC requirements. If a party with whom we contract is placed on the OFAC list we may be required by the OFAC regulations to terminate the agreement, which could result in a losses or a damage claim by the other party that the termination was wrongful.
Terrorism and war could harm our business and operating results.
The possibility of future terrorist attacks or war could have a negative impact on our operations, even if they are not directed at our properties and even if they never actually occur. Terrorist attacks can also substantially affect the availability and price of insurance coverage for certain types of damages or occurrences, and our insurance policies for terrorism include large deductibles and co-payments. The lack of sufficient insurance for these types of acts could expose us to significant losses.
Risks Related to Our Organization and Structure
Tax consequences to holders of OP Units upon a sale or refinancing of our properties may cause the interests of our executive officers to differ from the interests of our stockholders.
Some of our properties were contributed to us in exchange for units of our Operating Partnership. As a result of the unrealized built-in gain attributable to such properties at the time of their contribution, some holders of OP Units, including our executive officers, may suffer different and more adverse tax consequences than holders of our common stock upon the sale or refinancing of the properties owned by our Operating Partnership, including disproportionately greater allocations of items of taxable income and gain upon a realization event. As a result, those holders may have different objectives regarding the appropriate pricing, timing and other material terms of any sale or refinancing of certain properties, or whether to sell or refinance such properties at all.
Our executive officers have significant influence over our affairs.
At December 31, 2018,2021, our executive officers owned 5%4% of our outstanding common stock, but they would own 14%15% if they converted all of their outstanding LTIPs and OP Units were converted into common stock. As a result, our executive officers, to the extent that they vote their shares in a similar manner, will have significant influence over our affairs and could exercise such influence in a manner that is not in the best interests of our other stockholders, including by attempting to delay, defer or prevent a change of control transaction that might otherwise be in the best interests of our stockholders.
Under their employment agreements, certain of our executive officers will receive severance if they are terminated without cause or resign for good reason.
We have employment agreements with Jordan L. Kaplan, Kenneth M. Panzer and Kevin A. Crummy, which provide each executive with severance if they are terminated without cause or resign for good reason (including following a change of control), based on two or three times (depending on the officer) his annual total of salary, bonus and incentive compensation such as LTIP Units, options or outperformance grants. In addition, these executive officers would not be restricted from competing with us after their departure.
The loss of any of our executive officers or key senior personnel could significantly harm our business.
Our ability to maintain our competitive position is largely dependent upon the skill and effort of our executive officers and key personnel, who have significant real estate industry experience, strong industry reputations and networks, and assist us in identifying acquisition, disposition, development and borrowing opportunities, negotiating with tenants and sellers of properties, and managing our development projects and the operations of our properties. If we lose the services of any of our executive officers or key senior personnel our business could be adversely affected.
Compensation awards to our management may not be tied to or correspond with improved financial results or the market price of our common stock.
The compensation committee of our board of directors is responsible for overseeing our compensation and incentive compensation plans. Our compensation committee has significant discretion in structuring compensation packages and may make compensation decisions based on any number of factors. Compensation awards may not be tied to or correspond with improved financial results or the market price of our common stock. See Note 13 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more information regarding our stock-based compensation.
Our board of directors may change significant corporate policies without stockholder approval.
Our investment, financing, borrowing, dividend, operating and other policies are determined by our board of directors. These policies may be amended or revised at any time and from time to time at the discretion of our board of directors without a vote of our stockholders. Our board of directors may change our policies with respect to conflicts of interest provided that such changes are consistent with applicable legal requirements.
Our growth depends on external sources of capital which are outside of our control.
In order to qualify as a REIT, we are required under the Code to distribute annually at least 90% of our “REIT taxable income", determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and by excluding any net capital gain. To the extent that we do not distribute all of our net long-term capital gains or at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, we will be required to pay tax thereon at the regular corporate tax rates.rate. Because of these distribution requirements, we may not be able to fund future capital needs from our operating cash flows, including acquisitions, development and debt refinancing. Consequently, we expect to rely on third-party sources to fund some of our capital needs and we may not be able to obtain financing on favorable terms or at all. Any additional borrowings will increase our leverage, and any additional equity that we issue will dilute our common stock. Our access to third-party sources of capital depends on many factors, some of which include:
•general market conditions;
•the market’s perception of our growth potential;
•our current debt levels;
•our current and expected future earnings;
•our cash flows and cash dividends; and
•the market price per share of our common stock.
We face risks associated with short-term liquid investments.
From time to time, we have significant cash balances that we invest in a variety of short-term money market fund investments that are intended to preserve principal value and maintain a high degree of liquidity while providing current income. These investments are not insured against loss of principal and there is no guarantee that our investments in these funds will be redeemable at par value. If we cannot liquidate our investments or redeem them at par we could incur losses and experience liquidity issues.
Our charter, the partnership agreement of our Operating Partnership, and Maryland law contain provisions that may delay or prevent a change of control transaction.
(i) Our charter contains a five percent ownership limit.
Our charter, subject to certain exceptions, contains restrictions on ownership that limit, and authorizes our directors to take such actions as are necessary and desirable to limit, any person to actual or constructive ownership of not more than five percent of the value or number, whichever is more restrictive, of the outstanding shares of our common stock. Our board of directors, in its sole discretion, may exempt a proposed transferee from the ownership limit. The ownership limit contained in our charter may delay or prevent a transaction or a change of control that might involve a premium price for our common stock or otherwise be in the best interest of our stockholders.
(ii) Our board of directors may create and issue a class or series of preferred stock without stockholder approval.
Our board of directors is empowered under our charter to amend our charter to increase or decrease the aggregate number of shares of our common stock or the number of shares of stock of any class or series that we have authority to issue, to designate and issue from time to time one or more classes or series of preferred stock and to classify or reclassify any unissued shares of our common stock or preferred stock without stockholder approval. Our board of directors may determine the relative rights, preferences and privileges of any class or series of preferred stock issued. As a result, we may issue series or classes of preferred stock with preferences, dividends, powers and rights, voting or otherwise, senior to the rights of our common stock holders. The issuance of preferred stock could also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control transaction that might otherwise be in the best interests of our stockholders.
(iii) Certain provisions in the partnership agreement of our Operating Partnership may delay or prevent an unsolicited acquisition of us.
Provisions in our Operating Partnership agreement may delay or make more difficult unsolicited acquisitions of us or changes in our control. These provisions could discourage third parties from making proposals involving an unsolicited acquisition of us or change of our control, although some stockholders might consider such proposals, if made, desirable. These provisions include, among others:
•redemption rights of qualifying parties;
•transfer restrictions on our OP Units;
•the ability of the general partner in some cases to amend the partnership agreement without the consent of the limited partners; and
•the right of the limited partners to consent to transfers of the general partnership interest and mergers under specified circumstances.
Any potential change of control transaction may be further limited as a result of provisions of the partnership unit designation for certain LTIP Units, which require us to preserve the rights of LTIP unit holders and may restrict us from amending the partnership agreement for our Operating Partnership in a manner that would have an adverse effect on the rights of LTIP unit holders.
(iv) Certain provisions of Maryland law could inhibit changes in control.
Certain provisions of the MGCL may have the effect of inhibiting a third party from making a proposal to acquire us or impeding a change of control under circumstances that otherwise could provide our stockholders with the opportunity to realize a premium over the market price of our common stock, including:
•“business combination” provisions that, subject to limitations, prohibit certain business combinations between us and an “interested stockholder” (defined generally as any person who beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting power of our shares or an affiliate thereof) for five years after the most recent date on which the stockholder becomes an interested stockholder, and thereafter impose special appraisal rights and special stockholder voting requirements on these combinations; and
•“control share” provisions that provide that “control shares” of our company (defined as shares which, when aggregated with other shares controlled by the stockholder, entitle the stockholder to exercise one of three increasing ranges of voting power in electing directors) acquired in a “control share acquisition” (defined as the direct or indirect acquisition of ownership or control of “control shares”) have no voting rights except to the extent approved by our stockholders by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of all the votes entitled to be cast on the matter, excluding all interested shares.
We have elected to opt out of these provisions of the MGCL, in the case of the business combination provisions of the MGCL, by resolution of our board of directors, and in the case of the control share provisions of the MGCL, pursuant to a provision in our bylaws. However, our board of directors may by resolution elect to repeal the foregoing opt-outs from the business combination provisions of the MGCL and we may, by amendment to our bylaws, opt in to the control share provisions of the MGCL in the future.
Our charter, bylaws, our Operating Partnership agreement and Maryland law also contain other provisions that may delay, defer or prevent a transaction or a change of control that might involve a premium price for our common stock or otherwise be in the best interest of our stockholders.
Under their employment agreements, certain of our executive officers will receive severance if they are terminated without cause or resign for good reason.
We have employment agreements with Jordan L. Kaplan, Kenneth M. Panzer and Kevin A. Crummy, which provide each executive with severance if they are terminated without cause or resign for good reason (including following a change of control), based on two or three times (depending on the officer) his annual total of salary, bonus and incentive compensation such as LTIP Units, options or outperformance grants. In addition, these executive officers would not be restricted from competing with us after their departure.
Our fiduciary duties as the sole stockholder of the general partner of our Operating Partnership could create conflicts of interest.
As the sole stockholder of the general partner of our Operating Partnership, we have fiduciary duties to the other limited partners in our Operating Partnership, the discharge of which may conflict with the interests of our stockholders. The limited partners of our Operating Partnership have agreed that, in the event of a conflict in the fiduciary duties owed by us to our stockholders and, in our capacity as general partner of our Operating Partnership, to such limited partners, we are under no obligation to give priority to the interests of such limited partners. The limited partners have the right to vote on certain amendments to the Operating Partnership agreement (which require approval by a majority in interest of the limited partners, including us) and individually to approve certain amendments that would adversely affect their rights. These voting rights may be exercised in a manner that conflicts with the interests of our stockholders. For example, we are unable to modify the rights of limited partners to receive distributions as set forth in the Operating Partnership agreement in a manner that adversely affects their rights without their consent, even though such modification might be in the best interest of our stockholders.
The loss of any of our executive officers or key senior personnel could significantly harm our business.
Our ability to maintain our competitive position is largely dependent on the skill and effort of our executive officers and key senior personnel, who have strong industry reputations, assist us in identifying acquisition and borrowing opportunities, having such opportunities brought to us, and negotiating with tenants and sellers of properties. If we lose the services of any of our executive officers or key senior personnel our business could be adversely affected.
Our board of directors may change significant corporate policies without stockholder approval.
Our investment, financing, borrowing, dividend, operating and other policies are determined by our board of directors. These policies may be amended or revised at any time and from time to time at the discretion of our board of directors without a vote of our stockholders. Our board of directors may change our policies with respect to conflicts of interest provided that such changes are consistent with applicable legal requirements.
Compensation awards to our management may not be tied to or correspond with improved financial results or the market price of our common stock.
The compensation committee of our board of directors is responsible for overseeing our compensation and incentive compensation plans. Our compensation committee has significant discretion in structuring compensation packages and may make compensation decisions based on any number of factors. Compensation awards may not be tied to or correspond with improved financial results or the market price of our common stock. See Note 12 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more information regarding our stock-based compensation.
If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results.
An effective system of internal control over financial reporting is necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports, prevent fraud and operate successfully as a public company. There can be no guarantee that our internal controls over financial reporting will be effective in accomplishing all control objectives all of the time. Deficiencies, including material weaknesses, in our internal control over financial reporting that may occur in the future could result in material misstatements in our financial reporting, which could result in restatements of our financial statements. Failure to maintain effective internal controls could cause us to not meet our reporting obligations, which could affect our ability to remain listed with the NYSE or result in SEC enforcement actions, and could cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information.
Litigation could have an adverse effect on our business.
From time to time, we are party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. An unfavorable resolution of litigation could adversely affect us. Even when there is a favorable outcome, litigation may result in substantial expenses and significantly divert the attention of our management with a similar adverse effect on us.
New accounting pronouncements could adversely affect our operating results or the reported financial performance of our tenants.
Accounting policies and methods are fundamental to how we record and report our financial condition and results of operations. Uncertainties posed by various initiatives of accounting standard-setting by the FASB and the SEC, which create and interpret applicable accounting standards for U.S. companies, may change the financial accounting and reporting standards or their interpretation and application of these standards that govern the preparation of our financial statements. Similarly, these changes could have a material impact on our tenants’ reported financial condition or results of operations, credit ratings and preferences regarding leasing real estate. See "New Accounting Pronouncements" in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report.
Risks Related to Taxes and Our Status as a REIT
Prospective investors should consult with their tax advisors regarding the effects of recently enacted tax legislation and other legislative, regulatory and administrative developments.
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “TCJA”) was signed into law. The TCJA makes major changesOur property taxes could increase due to the Code, including a number of provisions of the Code that affect the taxation of REITs and their stockholders. Among the changes made by the TCJA are permanently reducing the generally applicable corporateproperty tax rate changes, reassessments or changes in property tax laws, which would adversely impact our cash flows.
We are required to pay property taxes for our properties, which could increase as property tax rates increase or as our properties are assessed or reassessed by taxing authorities. In California, pursuant to an existing state law commonly referred to as Proposition 13, properties are currently reassessed to market value only at the time of change in ownership or completion of construction, and thereafter, annual property reassessments are generally reducinglimited to 2% increases over the tax rate applicablepreviously assessed values. As a result, Proposition 13 generally results in significant below-market assessed values over time.
From time to individualstime, including recently, lawmakers and political coalitions have initiated efforts to repeal or amend Proposition 13 to eliminate its application to commercial and/or other non-corporate taxpayersproperties. If Proposition 13 no longer limited the assessed value of our California properties, the assessed values and property taxes for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026, eliminating or modifying certain previously allowed deductions (includingthose properties could increase substantially, limiting interest deductibility and, for individuals, the deduction for non-business state and local taxes), and, for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026, providing for preferential rates of taxation through a deduction of up to 20% (subject to certain limitations) on most ordinary REIT dividends and certain trade or business income of non-corporate taxpayers. The TCJA also imposes new limitations on the deduction of net operating losses, which may result in us having to make additional taxable distributions to our stockholders in order to comply with REIT distribution requirements or avoid taxes on retained income and gains. The effect of the significant changes made by the TCJA are uncertain, and the IRS has issued only limited guidance to date, additional administrative guidance will be required in order to fully evaluate the effect of many provisions. The effect of any technical corrections with respect to the TCJA could have an adverse effecta material impact on us or our stockholders. Investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the implicationsresults of the TCJA on their investment in our common stock.operations, cash flows and financial condition.
Failure to qualify as a REIT would result in higher taxes and reduced cash available for distributions.
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code, commencing with our initial taxable year ended December 31, 2006. To qualify as a REIT, we must satisfy on a continuing basis certain technical and complex income, asset, organizational, distribution, stockholder ownership and other requirements. See Item 1 "Business Overview" of this Report for more information regarding these tests. Our ability to satisfy these tests depends upon our analysis of and compliance with numerous factors, many of which are not subject to a precise determination and have only limited judicial and administrative interpretations, and which are not entirely within our control. Holding most of our assets through our Operating Partnership further complicates the application of the REIT requirements and a technical or inadvertent mistake could jeopardize our REIT status. Legislation, newNew legislation, Treasury regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions could significantly change the tax laws with respect to the requirements for qualification as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of qualification as a REIT. Although we believe that we will continue to qualify as a REIT, we can give no assurance that we have qualified or will continue to qualify as a REIT.
If we were to fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, and certain relief provisions did not apply, we would be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at the regular corporate rates,rate, and distributions to stockholders would not be deductible by us in computing our taxable income. Any such corporate tax liability could be substantial and would reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to our stockholders. Unless entitled to relief under certain Code provisions, we would also be disqualified from taxation as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which we ceased to qualify as a REIT. In addition, if we fail to qualify as a REIT, we would not be required to make distributions to stockholders, and all distributions to stockholders will be subject to tax as dividend income to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits. If we fail to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes and are able to avail ourselves of one or more of the relief provisions under the Code in order to maintain our REIT status, we would nevertheless be required to pay penalty taxes of $50,000 or more for each such failure.
As a result of the above factors, our failure to qualify as a REIT could impair our ability to raise capital and expand our business, substantially reduce distributions to stockholders, result in us incurring substantial indebtedness (to the extent borrowings are feasible) or liquidating substantial investments in order to pay the resulting taxes, and adversely affect the market price of our common stock. One of our Funds,
Our Fund, and two of our consolidated JVs, also own properties through one or more entities which are intended to qualify as REITs, and we may in the future use other structures that include REITs. The failure of any such entities to qualify as a REIT could have similar consequences to the REIT subsidiary and could also cause us to fail to qualify as a REIT.
If the Operating Partnership, or any of its subsidiaries, were treated as a regular corporation for federal income tax purposes, we could cease to qualify as a REIT.
Although we believe that the Operating Partnership and other subsidiary partnerships, limited liability companies, REIT subsidiaries, QRS and other subsidiaries (other than the TRS) in which we own a direct or indirect interest will be treated for tax purposes as a partnership, disregarded entity (e.g., in the case of a 100% owned limited liability company), REIT or QRS, as applicable, no assurance can be given that the IRS will not successfully challenge the tax classification of any such entity, or that a court would not sustain such a challenge. If the IRS were successful in treating the Operating Partnership or other subsidiaries as entities taxable as a corporation (including a “publicly traded partnership” taxed as a corporation) for federal income tax purposes, we would likely fail to qualify as a REIT and it would significantly reduce the amount of cash available for distribution by such subsidiaries to us.
Even if we qualify as a REIT, we will be required to pay some taxes which would reduce cash available for distributions.
Even if we qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we will be required to pay certain federal, state and local taxes on our income and property. For example, we will be subject to income tax to the extent that we distribute less than 100% of our REIT taxable income (including capital gains). In addition, any net taxable income earned directly by our TRS, or through entities that are disregarded for federal income tax purposes as entities separate from our TRS, will be subject to federal and possibly state corporate income tax. We have elected to treat severalone of our subsidiaries as TRSs,a TRS, and we may elect to treat other subsidiaries as TRSs in the future. In this regard, several provisions of the laws applicable to REITs and their subsidiaries ensure that a TRS will be subject to an appropriate level of federal income taxation. For example, for taxable years prior to 2018, a TRS is limited in its ability to deduct interest payments made to an affiliated REIT.REIT and, for taxable years after 2017, a TRS is subject to more general limitations on its ability to deduct interest payments to any lender. In addition, the REIT has to pay a 100% tax on some payments that it receives or on some deductions taken by its TRS if the economic arrangements between the REIT, the REIT’s tenants, and the TRS are not comparable to similar arrangements between unrelated parties. In addition, some state and local jurisdictions may tax some of our income even though as a REIT we are not subject to federal income tax on that income because not all states and localities treat REITs the same as they are treated for federal income tax purposes. Moreover, if we have net income from “prohibited transactions,” that income will be subject to a 100% tax. In general, prohibited transactions are sales or other dispositions of property held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business. Although we do not intend to hold any properties that would be characterized as held primarily for sale to customers in the ordinary course of our business, such characterization is a factual determination and we cannot guarantee that the IRS would agree with our characterization of our properties. To the extent that we are required to pay federal, state and local taxes, we will have less cash available for distributions to our stockholders.
REIT distribution requirements could adversely affect our liquidity and cause us to forego otherwise attractive opportunities.
To qualify as a REIT, we generally must distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, excluding any net capital gains. To the extent that we do not distribute all of our net long-term capital gains or at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, we will be required to pay tax thereon at the regular corporate tax rates.rate. We intend to make distributions to our stockholders to comply with the Code requirements for REITs and to minimize or eliminate our corporate income tax obligation. Certain types of assets and activities generate substantial mismatches between taxable income and available cash.cash, either because of differences in timing between the recognition of income and the actual receipt of cash or because of differences between the deduction of expenses and the actual payment of those expenses. Such assets include rental real estate that has been financed through financing structures which require some or all of available cash flows to be used to service borrowings. As a result, the requirement to distribute a substantial portion of our taxable income could cause us to sell assets in adverse market conditions, borrow on unfavorable terms, make a taxable distribution of our stock as part of a distribution in which stockholders may elect to receive our stock or (subject to a limit measured as a percentage of the total distribution) cash, distribute amounts that could otherwise be used to fund our operations, capital expenditures, acquisitions or repayment of debt, or cause us to forego otherwise attractive opportunities.
Dividends payable by REITs do not qualify for the reduced tax rates available for some dividends.
The maximum federal tax rate (not including the Medicare Contribution Tax on unearned income) applicable to income from “qualified dividends” payable to U.S. stockholders that are individuals, trusts and estates is 20%. Dividends payable by REITs, however, generally are not eligible for the 20% rate. However, under the TCJA, for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2026, individuals, trusts, and estates generally may deduct up to 20% of ordinary REIT dividends. Although these rules do not adversely affect the taxation of REITs or dividends payable by REITs, investors who are individuals, trusts and estates may perceive investments in REITs to be relatively less attractive than investments in the stocks of non-REIT corporations that pay dividends.
REIT stockholders can receive taxable income without cash distributions.
Under certain circumstances, REITs are permitted to pay required dividends in shares of their stock rather than in cash. If we were to avail ourselves of that option, our stockholders could be required to pay taxes on such stock distributions without the benefit of cash distributions to pay the resulting taxes.
If a transaction intended to qualify as a Section 1031 Exchange is later determined to be taxable or if we are unable to identify and complete the acquisition of a suitable replacement property to effect a Section 1031 Exchange, we may face adverse consequences, and if the laws applicable to such transactions are amended or repealed, we may not be able to dispose of properties on a tax deferred basis.
From time to time we may dispose of real properties in transactions that are intended to qualify as tax deferred exchanges under Section 1031 of the Code (Section 1031 Exchanges). It is possible that the qualification of a transaction as a Section 1031 Exchange could be successfully challenged and determined to be currently taxable. In such cases, our taxable income would increase as would the amount of distributions we are required to make to satisfy our REIT distribution requirements. This could increase the dividend income to our stockholders by reducing any return of capital they receive. In some circumstances, we may be required to pay additional dividends or, in lieu of that, corporate income tax, possibly including interest and penalties. As a result, we may be required to borrow in order to pay additional dividends or taxes, and the payment of such taxes could cause us to have less cash available to distribute to our stockholders. If a Section 1031 Exchange were later to be determined to be taxable, we may be required to amend our tax returns for the applicable year in question, including any reports we distributed to our stockholders. It is possible that legislation could be enacted that could modify or repeal the laws with respect to Section 1031 Exchanges, which could make it more difficult or not possible for us to dispose of real properties on a tax deferred basis.
Legislative or other actions affecting REITs could have a negative effect on our investors or us, including our ability to maintain our qualification as a REIT or the federal income tax consequences of such qualification.
Federal income tax laws are constantly under review by persons involved in the legislative process, the IRS and the U.S. Department of the Treasury. Changes to the laws could adversely affect us and our investors. New legislation, Treasury Regulations,regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions could significantly and negatively affect our ability to qualify as a REIT, the federal income tax consequences of such qualification, or the federal income tax consequences of an investment in us. Changes to laws relating to the tax treatment of other entities, or an investment in other entities, could make an investment in such other entities more attractive relative to an investment in a REIT.
Non-U.S. investors may be subject to FIRPTA, which would impose tax on certain distributions and on the sale of common stock if we are unable to qualify as a “domestically controlled” REIT or if our stock is not considered to be regularly traded on an established securities market.
A non-U.S. investor disposing of a U.S. real property interest, including shares of a U.S. corporation whose assets consist principally of U.S. real property interests or USRPIs is generally subject to a tax, known as FIRPTA tax, on the gain recognized on the disposition. Such FIRPTA tax does not apply, however, to the disposition of stock in a REIT if the REIT is a “domestically controlled qualified investment entity.” A domestically controlled qualified investment entity includes a REIT in which, at all times during a specified testing period, less than 50% of the value of its shares is held directly or indirectly by non-U.S. holders. In the event that we do not constitute a domestically controlled qualified investment entity, a non-U.S. investor’s sale of our common stock nonetheless will generally not be subject to tax under FIRPTA as a sale of a USRPI, provided that (1) the stock owned is of a class that is “regularly traded” as defined by applicable Treasury regulations, on an established securities market, and (2) the selling non-U.S. investor held 10% or less of our outstanding common stock at all times during a specified testing period. If we were to fail to so qualify as a domestically controlled qualified investment entity and our common stock were to fail to be “regularly traded,”traded”, a gain realized by a non-U.S. investor on a sale of our common stock would be subject to FIRPTA tax and applicable withholding. No assurance can be given that we will be a domestically controlled qualified investment entity. Additionally, any distributions we make to our non-U.S. stockholders that are attributable to gain from the sale of any USRPI will also generally be subject to FIRPTA tax and applicable withholdings, unless the recipient non-U.S. stockholder has not owned more than 10% of our common stock at any time during the year preceding the distribution and our common stock is treated as being “regularly traded”.
General Risks
Security breaches through cyber attacks, cyber intrusions or otherwise, as well as other significant disruptions of our IT networks and related systems could harm our business.
We face risks associated with security breaches, whether through cyber attacks or cyber intrusions over the Internet, malware, computer viruses, attachments to e-mails, persons inside our organization or persons with access to systems inside our organization and other significant disruptions of our IT networks and related systems. The risk of a security breach or disruption, particularly through cyber attack or cyber intrusion, including by computer hackers, foreign governments and cyber terrorists, has generally increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks and intrusions from around the world have increased. Our IT networks and related systems are essential to the operation of our business and our ability to perform day-to-day operations (including managing our building systems) and, in some cases, may be critical to the operations of certain of our tenants. Although we make efforts to maintain the security and integrity of these types of IT networks and related systems, and have implemented various measures to manage the risk of a security breach or disruption, there can be no assurance that our efforts will be effective in preventing attempted security breaches or disruptions. Even the most well protected information, networks, systems and facilities remain potentially vulnerable because the techniques used in such attempted security breaches evolve and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, and in some cases are designed not be detected and, in fact, may not be detected. Accordingly, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate security barriers or other preventative measures, and thus it is impossible for us to entirely mitigate this risk. A security breach or other significant disruption involving our IT networks and related systems could have an adverse effect on our business, for example:
•Disruption to our networks and systems and thus our operations and/or those of our tenants or vendors;
•Misstated financial reports, violations of loan covenants, missed reporting deadlines and missed permitting deadlines;
•Inability to comply with laws and regulations;
•Unauthorized access to, destruction, loss, theft, misappropriation or release of proprietary, confidential, sensitive or otherwise valuable information of ours or others, which others could be used to compete against us or for disruptive, destructive or otherwise harmful purposes;
•Rendering us unable to maintain the building systems relied upon by our tenants;
•The requirement of significant management attention and resources to remedy any damages that result;
•Claims for breach of contract, damages, credits, penalties or termination of leases or other agreements; and
•Damage to our reputation among our tenants, investors, or others.
Litigation could have an adverse effect on our business.
From time to time, we are party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. An unfavorable resolution of litigation could adversely affect us. Even when there is a favorable outcome, litigation may result in substantial expenses and significantly divert the attention of our management with a similar adverse effect on us.
If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results.
An effective system of internal control over financial reporting is necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports, prevent fraud and operate successfully as a public company. There can be no guarantee that our internal controls over financial reporting will be effective in accomplishing all control objectives all of the time. Deficiencies, including material weaknesses, in our internal control over financial reporting that may occur in the future could result in material misstatements in our financial reporting, which could result in restatements of our financial statements. Failure to maintain effective internal controls could cause us to not meet our reporting obligations, which could affect our ability to remain listed with the NYSE or result in SEC enforcement actions, and could cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information.
New accounting pronouncements could adversely affect our operating results or the reported financial performance of our tenants.
Accounting policies and methods are fundamental to how we record and report our financial condition and results of operations. Uncertainties posed by various initiatives of accounting standard-setting by the FASB and the SEC, which create and interpret applicable accounting standards for U.S. companies, may change the financial accounting and reporting standards or their interpretation and application of these standards that govern the preparation of our financial statements. Similarly, these changes could have a material impact on our tenants’ reported financial condition or results of operations, credit ratings and preferences regarding leasing real estate. See "New Accounting Pronouncements" in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report.

Holders of Record
We had 1511 holders of record of our common stock on February 8, 2019.11, 2022. Many of the shares of our common stock are held in “street” name and accordingly, the number of beneficial owners of such shares is not known or included in the foregoing number.
Sales of Unregistered Securities
On December 20, 2017, in connection with the purchase of an office property located at 9401 Wilshire Boulevard, Beverly Hills, California, our Operating Partnership issued $2.6 million OP Units valued at $105.7 million to the seller of the office property, as partial consideration for the purchase. Each OP Unit can be exchanged into one share of our common stock (or its cash equivalent at our option). This issuance did not involve underwriters, underwriter discounts or commissions or any public offering. We believe that the issuance of OP Units is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act under Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act and Section 4(2) of the Securities Act as a transaction by an issuer not involving any public offering. There was no advertising, general promotion or other marketing undertaken in connection with the issuance. The investor represented and warranted that (i) it acquired the OP Units for investment purposes only and not for the purpose of further distribution; (ii) it had sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and the ability to bear the economic risk of its investment, and (iii) that the OP Units were taken for investment purposes and not with a view to resale in violation of applicable securities laws.None.

Revenues by Segment and Location
During 2021, revenues from our Consolidated Portfolio waswere derived as follows:
Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on our Business
Our buildings have remained open and available to our tenants throughout the pandemic. The governmental authorities in the jurisdictions in which we primarily operate, California, Los Angeles, Beverly Hills and Santa Monica, passed COVID-19 pandemic relief ordinances of varying duration and scope (residential, retail, and office), and with varying exemptions, that generally prohibit evictions, late fees and interest and allow rent deferral over certain periods. While improving, our rent collections continue to be negatively impacted by the remaining impact of these ordinances and the pandemic.
Our results of operations for 2021 generally compare favorably with 2020, due to the gradual recovery, better collections and lower write-offs of uncollectible receivables, and an increase in tenant recoveries. Charges for uncollectible tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables, which were primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic, reduced our rental revenues and tenant recoveries by $3.0 million and $41.0 million for 2021 and 2020, respectively. If we subsequently collect amounts that were previously written off, then the amounts collected will be recorded as an increase to our rental revenues and tenant recoveries. See "Rental Revenues and Tenant Recoveries" in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report regarding our accounting policy. It is unclear how the pandemic will impact our future collections.
Other considerations that could impact our future leasing, rent collections, and revenue include:
•How long the pandemic continues;
•Whether governmental authorities authorize any new tenant protections;
•Whether more tenants stop paying rent if their business worsens;
•How attendance in our buildings changes and impacts parking revenue or rent collection; and/or
•How leasing activity and occupancy will evolve, including any long-term trends after the pandemic ends.
Overall, we expect the pandemic to continue to adversely impact many parts of our business, and those impacts have been, and will continue, to be material. For more information about the risks to our business, see "Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A. of this Report.

We have made certain guarantees related to the loan and the swaps - see "Guarantees" in Note 17 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report.
During the fourth quarter of 2021:
•We closed a secured, non-recourse $300.0 million interest-only term loan for one of our consolidated wholly-owned subsidiaries. The loan matures in January 2029 and bears interest at SOFR + 1.56%(with a zero-percent SOFR floor). The loan was effectively fixed with an interest rate swap (which does not have a zero-percent SOFR floor) at 3.42% until December 31, 2021, and 2.66% thereafter until January 2027.

Developments
Residential High-Rise Tower, Brentwood, California - "The Landmark Los Angeles"
In West Los Angeles, we are buildingcompleted the construction of a 34 story34-story high-rise apartment building with 376 apartments.apartments, and we expect to place the building into service during the first quarter of 2022. The tower is beingwas built on a site that is directly adjacent to our existinga 394 thousand square foot office building, a one acre park, and a 712 unit residential property, thatall of which we own. We expect the cost of the development to be approximately $180.0 million to $200.0 million, which does not include the cost of the land which we have owned since 1997. As part of the project, we are investing additional capital to build a one acre park on Wilshire Boulevard that will be available to the public and provide a valuable amenity to our surrounding properties and community. We expect construction to take about 3 years.
At our Moanalua Hillside Apartments in
1132 Bishop Street, Honolulu, as of the date of this Report, we completed the construction of an additional 491 new apartments in addition to our existing 680 apartments. We also invested additional capital to upgrade the existing buildings, improve the parking and landscaping, built a new leasing and management office, and constructed a new fitness center and two pools.Hawaii - "The Residences at Bishop Place"
In downtown Honolulu, we are converting a 25 story, 49025-story, 493 thousand square foot office tower into approximately 500493 rental apartments. We expectAs of December 31, 2021, we had delivered and leased approximately fifty-percent of the planned units. The conversion to occurwill continue in phases over a number of yearsthrough 2025 as the remaining office space is vacated. We currently estimatevacated, therefore, the construction costs to be approximately $80.0 million to $110.0 million, although the inherent uncertainties of development are compounded by the multi-year and phased natureexpected timing of the conversion. Assuming timely approvals, we expect the first units to be delivered in 2020. This project will help address the severe shortage of rental housing in Honolulu and revitalize the central business district.remaining spending is uncertain.
Repositionings
We often strategically purchase properties with large vacancies or expected near-term lease roll-over and use our knowledge of the property and submarket to reposition the property for the optimal use and tenant mix. In addition, we may reposition properties already in our portfolio. The work we undertake to reposition a building typically takes months or even years, and could involve a range of improvements from a complete structural renovation to a targeted remodeling of selected spaces. We generally select a property for repositioning at the time we purchase it, although repositioning efforts can also occur at properties that we already own. During the repositioning, the affected property may display depressed rental revenue and occupancy levels which impactsthat impact our results and, therefore, comparisons of our performance from period to period.
Rental Rate Trends - Total Portfolio
Office Rental Rates
Our office rental rates for 2021 and 2020 were adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, although these declines were partly offset by lower tenant improvement costs.

Results of Operations
Comparison of 20182021 to 20172020
Our results in both periods were adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The first three months of the comparable period results were largely unaffected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The current period generally compares favorably with the comparable period due to the gradual recovery, better collections and lower write-offs of uncollectible receivables, and an increase in tenant recoveries.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measure: FFO
Usefulness to Investors
We report FFO because it is a widely reported measure of the performance of equity REITs, and is also used by some investors to identify the impact of trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs from year to year, excluding the impacts from changes in the value of our real estate, and to compare our performance with other REITs. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure for which we believe that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. FFO has limitations as a measure of our performance because it excludes depreciation and amortization of real estate, and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our results from operations. FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of our performance and should not be used as a measure of our liquidity or cash flow, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends. Other REITs may not calculate FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition and, accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to the FFO of other REITs. See "Results of Operations" above for a discussion of the items that impacted our net income.
Comparison of 20182021 to 20172020
OurDuring 2021, FFO increased by 45.0$10.9 million, or 12.7%2.9%, to $399.7$383.5 million, compared to $372.5 million for 2018 compared to $354.7 million for 2017, which2020. The increase was primarily due toto: (i) an increase in operating incomerevenues from our office portfolio due to acquisitionsbetter collections and lower write-offs of uncollectible receivables and an increase in 2017tenant recoveries, and higher rental rates, (ii) an increase in operating incomerevenues from our multifamily portfolio due to rent fromhigher occupancy, better collections and new apartmentsunits at our MoanaluaBishop Place development and higher rental ratesproject in existing units in our portfolio, and (iii) a decrease in interest expense due to lower debt balances, partially offset by an increase in general and administrative expenses due to an increase in personnel costs.Hawaii.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measure: Same Property NOI
Usefulness to Investors
We report Same Property NOI to facilitate a comparison of our operations between reported periods. Many investors use Same Property NOI to evaluate our operating performance and to compare our operating performance with other REITs, because it can reduce the impact of investing transactions on operating trends. Same Property NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure for which we believe that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. We report Same Property NOI because it is a widely recognized measure of the performance of equity REITs, and is used by some investors to identify trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs and to compare our operating performance with that of other REITs. Same Property NOI has limitations as a measure of our performance because it excludes depreciation and amortization expense, and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, nor the level of capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effect and could materially impact our results from operations. Other REITs may not calculate Same Property NOI in the same manner. As a result, our Same Property NOI may not be comparable to the Same Property NOI of other REITs. Same Property NOI should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of our performance and should not be used as a measure of our liquidity or cash flow, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends.
Comparison of 20182021 to 2017:2020:
Our 2018 same properties for 2021 included 4767 office properties, aggregating 11.817.6 million Rentable Square Feet, and 910 multifamily properties with an aggregate 2,640 units:3,449 units. The amounts presented below reflect 100% (not our pro-rata share). Our Same Property results in both periods were adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The first three months of the comparable period results were largely unaffected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The current period generally compares favorably with the comparable period due to the gradual recovery, better collections and lower write-offs of uncollectible receivables, and an increase in tenant recoveries.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Short-term liquidity
During 2021, we generated cash from operations of $447.0 million. As of December 31, 2021, we had $335.9 million of cash and cash equivalents, and we had no balance outstanding on our $400.0 million revolving credit facility. Our earliest term loan maturity is December 2024. Excluding acquisitions development projects and debt refinancings, we expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements through cash on hand, cash generated by operations and our revolving credit facility. See Note 78 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more information regarding our revolving credit facility.debt.
Long-term liquidity
Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for acquisitions development projects and debt refinancings. We do not expect to have sufficient funds on hand to cover these long-term cash requirements due to the requirement to distribute a substantial majorityat least 90% of our income on an annual basis imposed by REIT federal tax rules. We plan to meet our long-term liquidity needs through long-term secured non-recourse indebtedness,debt, the issuance of equity securities, including common stock and OP Units, as well as property dispositions and JV transactions. We have an ATM program which would allow us, subject to market conditions, to sell up to $400$400.0 million of shares of common stock asstock.
We only use property level, non-recourse debt. As of the dateDecember 31, 2021, approximately 46% of this Report.
our total office portfolio was unencumbered. To mitigate the impact of changing interest rates on our cash flows from operations, most of our long-term secured loans carry fixed interest rates, and we generally enter into interest rate swap agreements with respect to our loans with floating interest rates. These swap agreements generally expire between one to two years before the maturity date of the related loan, during which time we can refinance the loan without any interest penalty. See Notes 78 and 910 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more information regarding our debt and derivative contracts, respectively.

(1) Our cash flows from operating activities are primarily dependent upon the occupancy and rental rates of our portfolio, the collectibility of tenant receivables, the level of our operating and general and administrative expenses, and interest expense. The increase in cash from operating activities was primarily due to: (i) an increase in revenues from our office portfolio due to better collections and an increase in tenant recoveries, and (ii) an increase in revenues from our multifamily portfolio due to higher occupancy, better collections and new units at our Bishop Place development project in Hawaii.
(2) Our cash flows used in investing activities are generally used to fund property acquisitions, developments and repositioning projects, and Recurring and non-Recurring Capital Expenditures. The decrease in cash was primarily due to: (i) an increase in capital expenditures for developments of $30.4 million, (ii) proceeds from the sale of a property in the comparable period of $20.7 million, and (iii) a decrease in insurance recoveries for property damage of $14.1 million, which was partly offset by: (a) a decrease in capital expenditures for improvements to real estate of $34.9 million, and (b) the acquisition of additional interests in our Fund in the comparable period of $6.6 million.
(3) Our cash flows provided by financing activities are generally impacted by our borrowings and capital activities, as well as dividends and distributions paid to common stockholders and noncontrolling interests, respectively. The increase in cash was primarily due to an increase in net borrowing of $145.0 million.

(1) | Our cash flows provided by operating activities are primarily dependent upon the occupancy and rental rates of our portfolio, the collectability of rent and recoveries from our tenants, and the level of our operating expenses and general and administrative costs, and interest expense. The increase was primarily due to (i) an increase in operating income from our office portfolio due to acquisitions in 2017 and higher rental rates, (ii) an increase in operating income from our multifamily portfolio due to rents from new apartments at our Moanalua development and higher rental rates from existing units, and (iii) a decrease in interest expense due to lower debt balances. |

| |
(3) | Our cash flows used in financing activities are generally impacted by our borrowings and capital activities, as well as dividends and distributions paid to common stockholders and noncontrolling interests, respectively. The decrease is primarily due to (i) $593.2 million in proceeds from the issuance of common stock in 2017, (ii) $284.2 million in contributions from non-controlling interests in 2017, partially offset by (a) an increase of $299.7 million in net borrowings and (b) a decrease of $52.6 million in payroll taxes paid related to the exercise of stock options. |
Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which requires us to make estimates of certain items which affect the reported amounts of our assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. While we believe that our estimates are based upon reasonable assumptions and judgments at the time that they are made, some of our estimates could prove to be incorrect, and those differences could be material. Below is a discussion of our critical accounting policies, which are the policies we believe require the most estimate and judgment. See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in Item 15 of this Report for the summary of our significant accounting policies.
Investment in Real Estate
Acquisitions and Initial Consolidation of VIEs
We account for property acquisitions as asset acquisitions. We allocate the purchase price for asset acquisitions, which includes the capitalized transaction costs, and for the properties upon the initial consolidation of acquired propertiesVIEs not determined to be a business, on a relative fair value basis to: (i) land, (ii) buildings and improvements, (iii) tenant improvements and identifiable intangible assets such as in-place at-market leases, (iv) acquired above- and below-market ground and tenant leases, and if applicable (v) assumed debt, based upon comparable sales for land, and the income approach using our estimates of expected future cash flows and other valuation techniques.techniques, which include but are not limited to, our estimates of rental rates, revenue growth rates, capitalization rates and discount rates, for other assets and liabilities. We estimate the relative fair values of the tangible assets on an ‘‘as-if-vacant’’ basis. The estimated relative fair value of acquired in-place at-market leases are the estimated costs to lease the property to the occupancy level at the date of acquisition, including the fair value of leasing commissions and legal costs. We evaluate the time period over which we expect such occupancy level to be achieved and include an estimate of the net operating costs (primarily real estate taxes, insurance and utilities) incurred during the lease-up period. Above and below-market ground and tenant leases are recorded as an asset or liability based upon the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between the contractual amounts to be paid or received pursuant to the in-place ground or tenant leases, respectively, and our estimate of fair market rental rates for the corresponding in-place leases, over the remaining non-cancelable term of the leases. Assumed debt is recorded at fair value based upon the present value of the expected future payments.payments and current interest rates.
These estimates require judgment, involve complex calculations, and the allocations have a direct and material impact on our results of operations because, for example, (i) there would be less depreciation if we allocate more value to land (which is not depreciated), or (ii) if we allocate more value to buildings than to tenant improvements, the depreciation would be recognized over a much longer time period, because buildings are depreciated over a longer time period than tenant improvements.
Cost capitalization
We capitalize development costs, including predevelopment costs, interest, property taxes, insurance and other costs directly related to the development of real estate. Indirect development costs, including salaries and benefits, office rent, and associated costs for those individuals directly responsible for and who spend their time on development activities are also capitalized and allocated to the projects to which they relate. Development costs are capitalized while substantial activities are ongoing to prepare an asset for its intended use. We consider a development project to be substantially complete when the residential units or office space is available for occupancy but no later than one year after cessation of major construction activity. Costs incurred after a project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use, or after development activities have ceased, are expensed as incurred. Costs previously capitalized related to abandoned developments are charged to earnings. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.
The capitalization of development costs requires judgment, and can directly and materially impact our results of operations because, for example, (i) if we don't capitalize costs that should be capitalized, then our operating expenses would be overstated during the development period, and the subsequent depreciation of the developed real estate would be understated, or (ii) if we capitalize costs that should not be capitalized, then our operating expenses would be understated during the development period, and the subsequent depreciation of the real estate would be overstated. We capitalized development costs of $78.7$185.4 million, $66.0$186.4 million and $31.6$75.3 million during 2018, 2017 or 2016,2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We assess our investment in real estate and our investment in our Funds for impairment on a periodic basis, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of our investments in real estate may not be recoverable. If the undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset are less than the carrying value of the asset, and our evaluation indicates that we may be unable to recover the carrying value, then we would record an impairment loss to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset. Our estimates of future cash flows are based in part upon assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates and operating costs, and could differ materially from actual results. We record real estate held for sale at the lower of carrying value or estimated fair value, less costs to sell, and similarly recognize impairment losses if we believe that we cannot recover the carrying value. Our evaluation of market conditions for assets held for sale requires judgment, and our expectations could differ materially from actual results. Impairment losses would reduce our net income and could be material. WeBased upon such periodic assessments we did not record any impairment losses for our long-lived assets and Funds during 2018, 20172021, 2020 or 2016.2019.
Revenue Recognition - Collectibility of lease payments from office tenants
In accordance with Topic 842, if collectibility of lease payments is not probable at the commencement date, then we limit the lease income to the lesser of the income recognized on a straight-line basis or cash basis. If our assessment of collectibility changes after the commencement date, we record the difference between the lease income that would have been recognized on a straight-line basis and cash basis as a current-period adjustment to lease income. We adopted the complete impairment model guidance within Topic 842. Under this model, we no longer maintain a general reserve related to our receivables, and instead analyze, on a lease-by-lease basis, whether amounts due under the operating lease are deemed probable for collection. We write off tenant and deferred rent receivables as a charge against rental revenue in the period we determine the lease payments are not probable for collection.
Our assessment of the collectibility of lease payments requires judgment and could have a material impact on our results of operations. This assessment involves using a methodology that requires judgment and estimates about matters that are uncertain at the time the estimates are made, including tenant specific factors, specific industry conditions, and general economic trends and conditions. During 2021 and 2020, our results of operations were materially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. See "Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on our Business". Charges for uncollectible amounts related to tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables, which were primarily due to the COVID-19 pandemic, reduced our rental revenues and tenant recoveries by $3.0 million and $41.0 million in 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Revenue Recognition for Tenant Recoveries
Our tenant recovery revenues for recoverable operating expenses are recognized as revenue in the period that the recoverable expenses are incurred. Subsequent to year-end, we perform reconciliations on a lease-by-lease basis and bill or credit each tenant for any differences between the estimated expenses we billed to the tenant and the actual expenses incurred. Estimating tenant recovery revenues requires an in-depth analysis of the complex terms of each underlying lease. Examples of estimates and judgments made when determining the amounts recoverable include:
•estimating the recoverable expenses;
•estimating the impact of changes to expense and occupancy during the year;
•estimating the fixed and variable components of operating expenses for each building;
•conforming recoverable expense pools to those used in the base year for the underlying lease; and
•judging whether an expense or capital expenditure is recoverable pursuant to the terms of the underlying lease.
These estimates require judgment and involve complex calculations.calculations for each of our office properties. If our estimates prove to be incorrect, then our tenant recovery revenues and net income could be materially and adversely affected in future periods when we perform our reconciliations. The impact of changing our current year tenant recovery billings by 5% would result in a change to our tenant recovery revenues and net income of $2.4 million, $2.1$2.6 million and $2.0$2.6 million during 2018, 20172021, 2020 and 2016,2019, respectively.
Allowances for Tenant and Deferred Rent Receivables
Our estimates regarding the adequacy of our allowances for uncollectible tenant and deferred rent receivables requires judgment, including the creditworthiness of specific tenants and general economic trends and conditions. For most of our tenants, our only security is their security deposits or letters of credit, and in some cases we do not require any security deposit or letter of credit. If our allowances are not sufficient to cover the unsecured losses from our tenants who fail to make contractual payments, our revenues and net income could be materially and adversely affected in future periods. As of December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, the total of our allowances was $8.1 million, $6.5 million and $7.8 million, respectively. The impact of changing the allowances by 5% would result in a change to our revenues and net income of $403 thousand, $323 thousand and $390 thousand during 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation
We award stock-based compensation to certain employees and non-employee directors in the form of LTIP Units. We recognize the fair value of the awards over the requisite vesting period, which is based upon service. The fair value of the awards is based upon the market value of our common stock on the grant date and a discount for post-vesting restrictions.
Our estimate of the discount for post-vesting restrictions requires judgment. If our estimate of the discount is too high or too low it would result in the fair value of the awards that we make being too low or too high, respectively, which would result in an under- or over-expense of stock-based compensation, respectively, and this under- or over-expensing of stock-based compensation could be material towould result in our net income.income being overstated or understated, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense was $22.3$20.9 million, $18.5$21.4 million and $17.4$18.4 million for 2018, 20172021, 2020 and 2016,2019, respectively. The impact of changing the discount rate by 5% would result in a change to our stock-based compensation expense and net income of $1.1$1.0 million, $0.9$1.1 million and $0.9 million during 2018, 20172021, 2020 and 2016,2019, respectively.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We use derivative instruments to hedge interest rate risk related toHedging our Floating Rate Borrowings
As of December 31, 2021, all of our floating rate borrowings. However, ourborrowings were hedged with interest rate swaps. Our use of these instruments exposes us to credit risk from the potential inability of our counterparties to perform under the terms of those agreements. We attempt to minimize this credit risk by contracting with a variety of high-quality financial counterparties. counterparties with investment ratings.
Market Transition to SOFRfrom USD-LIBOR
On March 5, 2021, the FCA announced that USD-LIBOR will no longer be published after June 30, 2023. This announcement has several implications, including setting the spread that may be used to automatically convert contracts from USD-LIBOR to SOFR. Most of our floating rate borrowings and interest rate swaps are indexed to USD-LIBOR and we are monitoring this activity and evaluating the related risks in connection with transitioning contracts to SOFR - which include: (i) loan interest payments, (ii) swap interest payments, and (iii) the value of loans and swaps. While we currently expect USD-LIBOR to be available in substantially its current form until at least June 30, 2023, it is possible that USD-LIBOR will become unavailable prior to that time. This could occur, if, for example, sufficient banks decline to make submissions to the LIBOR administrator. In that case, the risks associated with the transition to SOFR will be accelerated and potentially magnified.
See Notes 78 and 910 to our consolidated financial statements in Item 15 of this Report for more information regarding our debt and derivatives. At December 31, 2018, 6.0% of our debt was unhedged floating rate debt. A fifty-basis point change in the one month USD LIBOR interest rate would result in an annual impact to our earnings (through interest expense) of $1.3 million. We calculate interest sensitivity by multiplying the amount of unhedged floating rate debt by fifty-basis points.swaps.
In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (the authority that regulates LIBOR) announced it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. The Alternative Reference Rates Committee ("ARRC") has proposed that the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") is the rate that represents best practice as the alternative to USD-LIBOR for use in derivatives and other financial contracts that are currently indexed to USD-LIBOR. ARRC has proposed a paced market transition plan to SOFR from USD-LIBOR and organizations are currently working on industry wide and company specific transition plans as it relates to derivatives and cash markets exposed to USD-LIBOR. Our floating rate borrowings and derivative instruments are indexed to USD-LIBOR and we are monitoring this activity and evaluating the related risks.

Report of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The management of Douglas Emmett, Inc. is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Our system of internal control is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with US GAAP. Our management, including the undersigned CEO and CFO, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018.2021. In conducting its assessment, management used the criteria issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission on Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013 Framework). Based on this assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2018,2021, our internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria.
Management, including our CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures, or our internal controls will prevent all error and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefit of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.
The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018,2021, has been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited the consolidated financial statements included in this annual report, as stated in their report appearing on page F-3F-4, which expresses an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Douglas Emmett, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Douglas Emmett, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 20182021 and 2017,2020, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 20182021 and the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a) (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 20182021 and 2017,2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2018,2021, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018,2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 Framework)framework), and our report dated February 15, 201918, 2022 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
| | | | | | | | |
| | Impairment of investment in real estate |
| | |
| Description of the Matter | | The Company’s net investment in real estate totaled $8.8 billion as of December 31, 2021. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company periodically assesses whether there has been any impairment in the carrying value of its properties and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable. Impairment is recognized on real estate assets held for investment when indicators of impairment are present and the future undiscounted cash flows for a real estate asset are less than its carrying amount, at which time the real estate asset is written down to its estimated fair value.
Auditing the Company's impairment assessment for real estate assets was challenging because of the high degree of subjective auditor judgment necessary in evaluating management’s identification of indicators of potential impairment. Our evaluation of management’s identification of indicators of impairment included our related assessment of the severity of such indicators, either individually or in combination, in determining whether a triggering event has occurred that requires the Company to evaluate the recoverability of the real estate asset. |
| | |
| How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit | | We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of controls over the Company’s real estate asset impairment assessment process. For example, we tested controls over management’s process for identifying and evaluating potential impairment indicators.
Our testing of the Company’s impairment assessment included, among other procedures, evaluating significant judgments applied in determining whether indicators of impairment existed for the Company’s real estate assets. Our procedures included obtaining evidence to corroborate such judgments and searching for evidence contrary to such judgments. For example, we searched for any tenants or groups of tenants with significant write offs or upcoming lease expirations that occupy a substantial portion of a real estate asset. We also searched for any significant declines in operating results of a real estate asset due to occupancy changes, environmental issues, physical damage, change in intended use or adverse changes in legal factors. |

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Douglas Emmett, Inc.
Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited Douglas Emmett, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018,2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control-IntegratedControl—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, Douglas Emmett, Inc. (the Company) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018,2021, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of Douglas Emmett, Inc. as of December 31, 20182021 and 2017 and2020, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2018,2021 and related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a), and our report dated February 15, 201918, 2022 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Report of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are the consolidated financial statements of Douglas Emmett, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including our Operating Partnership and our consolidated JVs. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in our consolidated financial statements. Our Operating Partnership
We consolidate entities in which we are considered to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE or have a majority of the voting interest of the entity. We are deemed to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE when we have (i) the power to direct the activities of that VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance, and consolidated JVs are VIEs(ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. We do not consolidate entities in which the other parties have substantive kick-out rights to remove our power to direct the activities, most significantly impacting the economic performance, of whichthat VIE. In determining whether we are the primary beneficiary. beneficiary, we consider factors such as ownership interest, management representation, authority to control decisions, and contractual and substantive participating rights of each party.
We consolidate our Operating Partnership through which we conduct substantially all of our business, and own, directly and through subsidiaries, substantially all of our assets, and are obligated to repay substantially all of our liabilities. The consolidated debt, excluding our consolidated JVs, was $3.41 billion and $3.19 billion, as of December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. See Note 8. We also consolidate 3 JVs through our Operating Partnership (4 JVs before December 31, 2020 - see "2020 Property Disposition" in Note 3 for more information regarding the dissolution of one of our JVs before December 31, 2020). We consolidate our Operating Partnership and our 3 JVs because they are VIEs and we or our Operating Partnership are the primary beneficiary for each.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make certain estimates that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Investment in Real Estate
Acquisitions and Initial Consolidation of VIEs
We account for property acquisitions as asset acquisitions, and include the acquired propertiesproperties' results of operations in our results of operations from the respective acquisition date. We allocate the purchase price for asset acquisitions, which includes the capitalized transaction costs, and for the properties upon the initial consolidation of VIEs not determined to be a business, on a relative fair value basis to: (i) land, (ii) buildings and improvements, (iii) tenant improvements and identifiable intangible assets such as in-place at-market leases, (iv) acquired above- and below-market ground and tenant leases (including for renewal options), and if applicable (v) assumed debt and (vi) assumed interest rate swaps, based upon comparable sales for land, and the income approach using our estimates of expected future cash flows and other valuation techniques. Ourtechniques, which include but are not limited to, our estimates are based upon expected future cash flowsof rental rates, revenue growth rates, capitalization rates and discount rates, for other valuation techniques.assets and liabilities. We estimate the relative fair values of the tangible assets on an ‘‘as-if-vacant’’ basis. The estimated relative fair value of acquired in-place at-market leases are the estimated costs to lease the property to the occupancy level at the date of acquisition, including the fair value of leasing commissions and legal costs. We evaluate the time period over which we expect such occupancy level to be achieved and include an estimate of the net operating costs (primarily real estate taxes, insurance and utilities) incurred during the lease-up period. Above- and below-market ground and tenant leases are recorded as an asset or liability based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between the contractual amounts to be paid or received pursuant to the in-place ground or tenant leases, respectively, and our estimate of the fair market rental rates for the corresponding in-place leases, over the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. Assumed debt is recorded at fair value based upon the present value of the expected future payments.payments and current interest rates. See Note 3 for our property acquisition disclosures.
Depreciation and Amortization
The assets and liabilities listed below are carried on our consolidated balance sheet net of the related accumulated depreciation or amortization/accretion, and any impairment charges. We accelerate depreciation for affected assets when we renovate our buildings or our buildings are impacted by new developments. When assets are sold or retired, their cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from our consolidated balance sheet with the resulting gains or losses, if any, reflected in our results of operations for the respective period.
•Buildings and improvements are depreciated on a straight-line basis using an estimated life of twenty-five to forty years for buildings and fifteen years for improvements, and are carried on our balance sheet, offset by the related accumulated depreciation and any impairment charges, until they are sold. improvements.
•Tenant improvements are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the life of the related lease, with any remaining balance depreciated in the period of any early lease termination.
•Acquired in-place leases are amortized on a straight linestraight-line basis over the weighted average remaining term of the acquired in-place leases, and are carried on our balance sheet, offset by the related accumulated amortization, until the related building is either sold or impaired. Leaseleases.
Douglas Emmett, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
•Acquired lease intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over the related lease term, with any remaining balance amortized in the period of any early lease termination.
•Acquired above- and below-market tenant leases are amortized/accreted on a straight line basis over the life of the related lease and recorded as either an increase (for below-market leases) or a decrease (for above-market leases) to rental revenue.
•Acquired above- and below-market ground leases, from which we earn ground rent income, are amortized/accreted on a straight line basis over the life of the related lease and recorded either as an increase (for below-market leases) or a decrease (for above-market leases) to rental revenue.
•Acquired above- and below-market ground leases, for which we incur ground rent expense, are accreted/ amortized over the life of the related lease and recorded either as an increase (for below-market leases) or a decrease (for above-market leases) to expense. We accelerate depreciation for affected assets when we renovate our buildings or existing buildings are impacted by new developments. When assets are sold or retired, their cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from our balance sheet with the resulting gains or losses, if any, reflected in our results of operations for the respective period.
Real Estate Held for Sale
Properties are classified as held for sale in our consolidated balance sheets when they meet certain requirements, including the approval of the sale of the property, the marketing of the property for sale, and our expectation that the sale will likely occur within the next 12 months. Properties classified as held for sale are carried at the lower of their carrying value or fair value less costs to sell, and we also cease to depreciate the property. As of December 31, 20182021 and 2017,2020, we did not have any properties held for sale.

Dispositions
Recognition of gains or losses from sales of investments in real estate requires that we meet certain revenue recognition criteria and transfer control of the real estate to the buyer. The gain or loss recorded is measured as the difference between the sales price, less costs to sell, and the carrying value of the real estate when we sell it. See Note 3 for our property disposition disclosures.
Cost capitalization
Costs incurred during the period of construction of real estate are capitalized. Cost capitalization of development and redevelopment activities begins during the predevelopment period, which we define as the activities that are necessary to begin the development of the property. We cease capitalization upon substantial completion of the project, but no later than one year from cessation of major construction activity. We also cease capitalization when activities necessary to prepare the property for its intended use have been suspended. Capitalized costs are included in Property under developmentInvestment in real estate, gross, in our consolidated balance sheets. Once major construction activity has ceased and the development or redevelopment property is in the lease-up phase, the capitalized costs are transferred to (i) Land, (ii) Building and improvements and (iii) Tenant improvements and lease intangibles on our consolidated balance sheets as the historical cost of the property. Demolition expenses and repairs and maintenance are recorded as expense when incurred. During 2018, 20172021, 2020 and 2016,2019, we capitalized $78.7$185.4 million, $66.0$186.4 million and $31.6$75.3 million of costs related to our developments, respectively, which included $3.5$8.8 million, $2.7$4.8 million and $1.2$3.8 million of capitalized interest, respectively.
Ground Lease
We account for our ground lease, for which we are the lessee, in accordance with Topic 842 "Leases". We classify the ground lease as an operating lease, and we recognize a right-of-use asset for the land and a lease liability for the future lease payments. We recognize the lease payments as expense, which is included in Office expenses in our consolidated statements of operations. See Note 4 for more information regarding this ground lease. See Note 14 for the fair value disclosures related to the ground lease liability.
Investment in Unconsolidated Real Estate FundsFund
We manageAs of December 31, 2021 and hold2020, we managed and owned an equity interest in one unconsolidated Fund. Before November 21, 2019 we managed and owned equity interests in three Funds: Fund X, Partnership X and the Opportunity Fund. Asunconsolidated Funds. See Note 6.

We account for our investmentsinvestment in the Fundsour unconsolidated Fund using the equity method because we have significant influence but not control over the Funds, andFund. Under the equity method, we initially recorded our Funds do not qualify as VIEs. Our investment balancein our Fund at cost, which includes our share of the net assets of the combined Funds, acquisition basis difference and additional basis for capital raising costs, and subsequently adjust the investment balance for: (i) our share of the Fund's net income or losses, (ii) our Funds'share of the Fund's other comprehensive income or losses, (iii) our cash contributions to the Fund and (iv) our distributions received from the Fund. We will remove our investment in our unconsolidated Fund from our consolidated balance sheet when we sell our interest in the Fund or if the Fund qualifies for consolidation.
Our investment in our unconsolidated Fund is included in Investment in unconsolidated Fund in the consolidated balance sheets. Our share of our Fund's accumulated other comprehensive income or losses is included in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related toin our Funds' derivatives, and notes receivable from our Funds.consolidated balance sheets. As of December 31, 20182021 and 2017,2020, the total investment basis difference included in our investment balance in our unconsolidated Fund was $2.2$28.7 million and $2.9$29.6 million, respectively. See Note 5 forOur share of the net income or losses from our Fund disclosures.Funds is included in Income from unconsolidated Funds in the consolidated statements of operations.
We periodically assess whether there has been any impairment that is other than temporary in our investment in our unconsolidated Funds. An impairment charge would be recorded if events or changes in circumstances indicate that a decline in the fair value below the carrying value has occurred and the decline is other-than-temporary. Based upon such periodic assessments, no impairments occurred during 2021, 2020 or 2019.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We periodically assess whether there has been any impairment in the carrying value of our properties and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable. An impairment charge would be recorded if events or changes in circumstances indicate that a decline in the fair value below the carrying value has occurred and the decline is other-than-temporary. Recoverability of the carrying value of our properties is measured by a comparison of the carrying value to the undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the property. If the carrying value exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the property's carrying value and its fair value based on the estimated discounted future cash flows. We also perform a similar periodic assessment for our investments in our Funds. Based upon such periodic assessments, no impairments occurred during 2018, 20172021, 2020 or 2016.2019.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We consider short-term investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Revenue RecognitionRental Revenues and Tenant Recoveries
We account for our rental revenues and tenant recoveries in accordance with Topic 842 "Leases", which we adopted on January 1, 2019 on a modified retrospective basis. We adopted a practical expedient which allows us to account for our rental revenues and tenant recoveries on a combined basis. Rental revenues and tenant recoveries from tenant leases are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the consolidated statements of operations. All of our tenant leases are classified as operating leases. For lease terms exceeding one year, rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Deferred rent receivables represent rental revenue recognized on a straight-line basis in excess of billed rents. If a lease is canceled then the deferred rent is recognized over the new remaining lease term. We recognized straight line rent of $18.8 million, $12.9 million and $13.6 million during 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Rental revenue from month-to-month leases or leases with no scheduled rent increases or other adjustments is recognized on a monthly basis when earned.
Lease termination fees, which are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the consolidated statements of operations, are recognized on a straight line basis over the new remaining lease term when the related lease is canceled. We recognized lease termination revenue of $1.6 million, $2.1 million and $2.4 million during 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Douglas Emmett, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Tenant improvements constructed, and owned by us, and reimbursed by tenants are recorded as our assets, and the related revenue, which are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the consolidated statements of operations, is recognized over the related lease term. We recognized revenue for leasehold improvements of $3.5 million, $2.6 million and $2.6 million during 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Estimated tenant recoveries for real estate taxes, common area maintenance and other recoverable operating expenses, which are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the consolidated statements of operations, are recognized as revenue on a gross basis in the period that the recoverable expenses are incurred. Subsequent to year-end, we perform reconciliations on a lease-by-lease basis and bill or credit each tenant for any differences between the estimated expenses we billed to the tenant and the actual expenses incurred.
Office parking revenues, which are included in office Parking and other income in our consolidated statements of operations, are within the scope of Topic 606 (Revenue from Contracts with Customers), which we adopted in the first quarter of 2018 on a prospective basis. See "Adopted ASUs" further below. The lease contracts generally make a specified number of parking spaces available to the tenant, and we bill and recognize parking revenues on a monthly basis in accordance with the lease agreements generally using the monthly parking rates in effect at the time of billing. Office parking revenues were $102.5 million, $96.2 million and $88.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Office parking receivables were $1.1 million and $1.0 million as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and are included in Tenant receivables in our consolidated balance sheets.
Allowances for Tenant Receivables and Deferred Rent Receivables
We present our tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables net of allowances on our consolidated balance sheets. Tenant receivables consist primarily of amounts due for contractual lease payments and reimbursements of common area maintenance expenses, property taxes, and other costs recoverable from tenants. Deferred rent receivables represent the amount by which the cumulative straight-line rental revenue recorded to date exceeds the cumulative cash rents billed to date under the lease agreement. Rental revenue from month-to-month leases or leases with no scheduled rent increases or other adjustments is recognized on a monthly basis when earned.
Lease Terminations
Lease termination fees, which are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the consolidated statements of operations, are recognized on a straight line basis over the new remaining lease term when the related lease is canceled. We consider many factors when evaluating the levelrecognized lease termination revenue of allowances necessary, including evaluations of individual tenant receivables, historical loss activity, current economic conditions$1.2 million, $1.0 million and other relevant factors. We generally obtain letters of credit or security deposits from our tenants. The table below presents our allowances$0.5 million during 2021, 2020 and security obtained from our tenants:2019, respectively.

Insurance Recoveries
Insurance recoveries related to property damage are recorded as other income when payment is either received or receipt is determined to be probable.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Tenant Improvements
Tenant improvements constructed, and owned by us, and reimbursed by tenants are recorded as our assets, and the related revenue, which are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the consolidated statements of operations, is recognized over the related lease term. We recognized revenue for reimbursement of tenant improvements of $5.8 million, $5.9 million and $5.8 million during 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Tenant Recoveries
Estimated tenant recoveries for real estate taxes, common area maintenance and other recoverable operating expenses, which are included in Rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the consolidated statements of operations, are recognized as revenue on a gross basis in the period that the recoverable expenses are incurred. Subsequent to year-end, in accordance with our policy, we perform reconciliations on a lease-by-lease basis and bill or credit each tenant for any differences between the estimated expenses we billed to the tenant and the actual expenses incurred.
Collectibility
In accordance with Topic 842, we perform an assessment as to whether or not substantially all of the amounts due under a tenant’s lease agreement is deemed probable of collection. This assessment involves using a methodology that requires judgment and estimates about matters that are uncertain at the time the estimates are made, including tenant specific factors, specific industry conditions, and general economic trends and conditions. For leases where we have concluded it is probable that we will collect substantially all the lease payments due under those leases, we continue to record lease income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For leases where we have concluded that it is not probable that we will collect substantially all the lease payments due under those leases, we limit the lease income to the lesser of the income recognized on a straight-line basis or cash basis. If our conclusion of collectibility changes, we will record the difference between the lease income that would have been recognized on a straight-line basis and cash basis as a current-period adjustment to rental revenues and tenant recoveries. We write-off tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables as a charge against rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the period we conclude that substantially all of the lease payments are not probable of collection. If we subsequently collect amounts that were previously written off then the amounts collected are recorded as an increase to our rental revenues and tenant recoveries in the period they are collected. Charges for uncollectible tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables, which were primarily due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, reduced our office revenues by $3.0 million and $41.0 million in 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Lease Modifications
In April 2020, the FASB staff issued a question and answer document (the “Lease Modification Q&A”) on the application of lease accounting guidance to lease concessions provided as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Under the existing lease accounting guidance, we would be required to determine on a lease-by-lease basis if a lease concession was the result of a new arrangement reached with the tenant (treated within the lease modification accounting framework) or if a lease concession was under the enforceable rights and obligations within the existing lease agreement (precluded from applying the lease modification accounting framework). The Lease Modification Q&A allows us, if certain criteria are met, to bypass the lease-by-lease analysis, and instead elect to either apply the lease modification accounting framework or not, with such election applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances. We have availed ourselves of the election to avoid performing a lease-by-lease analysis and we have elected to apply the lease modification accounting framework for the lease concessions that meet the criteria.
Office Parking Revenues
Office parking revenues, which are included in office Parking and other income in our consolidated statements of operations, are within the scope of Topic 606 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers". Our lease contracts generally make a specified number of parking spaces available to the tenant, and we bill and recognize parking revenues on a monthly basis in accordance with the lease agreements, generally using the monthly parking rates in effect at the time of billing.
Office parking revenues were $69.0 million, $76.1 million and $108.7 million in 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Office parking receivables were $0.8 million and $0.6 million as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and are included in Tenant receivables in our consolidated balance sheets.
Douglas Emmett, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
Insurance Recoveries
The amount by which insurance recoveries related to property damage exceeds any losses recognized from that damage are recorded as other income when payment has been received or confirmation of the amount of proceeds has been received.
In January 2020, there was a fire in one of our residential property buildings. We carry comprehensive liability and property insurance covering all of the properties in our portfolio under blanket insurance policies to cover these kinds of losses. We recorded $4.8 million and $3.9 million of business interruption revenues during 2021 and 2020, respectively, which is included in Multifamily rental - Parking and other income in the consolidated statements of operations. In addition, we recorded a gain related to property damage of $13.1 million during 2020, which is included in Other income in the consolidated statements of operations.
Interest Income
Interest income from our short-term money market fund investments is recognized on an accrual basis. Interest income is included in other income in the consolidated statements of operations.
Leasing Costs
We account for our leasing costs in accordance with Topic 842 "Leases", which we adopted on January 1, 2019 on a modified retrospective basis. In accordance with Topic 842, we capitalize initial direct costs of a lease, which are costs that would not have been incurred had the lease not been executed. Costs to negotiate a lease that would have been incurred regardless of whether the lease was executed, such as employee salaries, are not considered to be initial direct costs, and are expensed as incurred.
Loan Costs
Loan costs incurred directly with the issuance of secured notes payable and revolving credit facilities are deferred and amortized to interest expense over the respective loan or credit facility term. Any unamortized amounts are written off upon early repayment of the secured notes payable, and the related cost and accumulated amortization are removed from our consolidated balance sheet.sheets.
To the extent that a refinancing is considered an exchange of debt with the same lender, we account for loan costs based upon whether the old debt is determined to be modified or extinguished for accounting purposes. If the old debt is determined to be modified then we (i) continue to defer and amortize any unamortized deferred loan costs associated with the old debt at the time of the modification over the new term of the modified debt, (ii) defer and amortize the lender costs incurred in connection with the modification over the new term of the modified debt, and (iii) expense all other costs associated with the modification. If the old debt is determined to be extinguished then we (i) write off any unamortized deferred loan costs associated with the extinguished debt at the time of the extinguishment and remove the related cost and accumulated amortization from our balance sheet, (ii) expense all lender costs associated with the extinguishment, and (iii) defer and amortize all other costs incurred directly in connection with the extinguishment over the term of the new debt.
In circumstances where we modify or exchange our revolving credit facility with the same lender, we account for the loan costs based upon whether the borrowing capacity of the new arrangement is (a) equal to or greater than the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement, or (b) less than the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement (borrowing capacity is defined as the product of the remaining term and the maximum available credit). If the borrowing capacity of the new arrangement is greater than or equal to the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement, then we (i) continue to defer and amortize the unamortized deferred loan costs from the old arrangement over the term of the new arrangement and (ii) defer all lender and other costs incurred directly in connection with the new arrangement over the term of the new arrangement. If the borrowing capacity of the new arrangement is less than the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement, then we (i) write off any unamortized deferred loan costs at the time of the transaction related to the old arrangement in proportion to the decrease in the borrowing capacity of the old arrangement and (ii) defer all lender and other costs incurred directly in connection with the new arrangement over the term of the new arrangement.
Deferred loan costs are presented on the balance sheet as a deduction from the carrying amount of our secured notes payable and revolving credit facility. All loan costs expensed and deferred loan costs amortized are included in interest expense in our consolidated statements of operations. See Note 78 for our loan cost disclosures.

Debt Discounts and Premiums
Debt discounts and premiums related to recording debt assumed in connection with property acquisitions at fair value are generally amortized and accreted, respectively, on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the related loan, which approximates the effective interest method. The amortization/accretion is included in interest expense in our consolidated statements of operations.
Derivative Contracts
We make use of interest rate swap and cap contracts to manage the risk associated with changes in interest rates on our floating-rate debt. When we enter into a floating-rate term loan, we generally enter into an interest rate swap agreement for the equivalent principal amount, for a period covering the majority of the loan term, which effectively converts our floating-rate debt to a fixed-rate basis during that time. In limited instances, we also make use of interest rate caps to limit our exposure to interest rate increases on our floating-rate debt. We do not speculate in derivatives and we do not make use of any other derivative instruments.
Douglas Emmett, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
We adopted ASU No. 2017-12 on a prospective basis in the first quarter of 2018 - see "Adopted ASUs" further below. When entering into derivative agreements, we generally elect to designate them as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. Changes in fair value of hedging instruments designated as cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI), which is a component of equity outside of earnings. For our Funds' hedging instruments designated as cash flow hedges, we record our share of the changes in fair value of the hedging instrument in AOCI. Amounts recorded in AOCI related to our designated hedges are reclassified to interestInterest expense as interest payments are made on the hedged floating rate debt. Amounts reported in AOCI related to our Funds' hedges are reclassified to income, including depreciation,Income from unconsolidated real estate funds,Funds, as interest payments are made by our Funds on their hedged floating rate debt. Changes in fair value of hedging instruments not designated as cash flow hedges are recorded as interest expense.
We present our derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value on a gross basis. Our share of the fair value of our Funds' derivatives is included in our investment in unconsolidated real estate fundsFunds on our consolidated balance sheet. See Note 910 for our derivative disclosures.
Stock-Based Compensation
We account for stock-based compensation, including stock options andwhich includes grants of LTIP Units, using the fair value method of accounting. The estimated fair value of stock options and LTIP Units granted, net of estimated forfeitures, is amortized over the vesting period, which is based upon service. See Note 1213 for our stock-based compensation disclosures.
EPS
We calculate basic EPS by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the respective period. We calculate diluted EPS by dividing the net income attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive instruments outstanding during the respective period using the treasury stock method. Unvested LTIP Units contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends and we account for them as participating securities and include them in the computation of basic and diluted EPS using the two-class method. See Note 1112 for our EPS disclosures.
Segment Information
Segment information is prepared on the same basis that our management reviews information for operational decision-making purposes. We operate two2 business segments: the acquisition, development, ownership and management of office real estate, and the acquisition, development, ownership and management of multifamily real estate. The services for our office segment include primarily rental of office space and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. The services for our multifamily segment include primarily rental of apartments and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. See Note 1415 for our segment disclosures.

Income Taxes
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code, commencing with our initial taxable year ended December 31, 2006. To qualify as a REIT, we are required (among other things) to distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders and meet various other requirements imposed by the Code relating to matters such as operating results, asset holdings, distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership. Provided that we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we are generally not subject to corporate-level income tax on the earnings distributed currently to our stockholders that we derive from our REIT qualifying activities. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, and are unable to avail ourselves of certain savings provisions set forth in the Code, all of our taxable income would be subject to federal income tax at the regular corporate rates,rate, including any applicable alternative minimum tax for taxable years prior to 2018.
We have elected to treat severalone of our subsidiaries as TRSs,a TRS, which generally may engage in any business, including the provision of customary or non-customary services to our tenants. A TRS is treated as a regular corporation and is subject to federal income tax and applicable state income and franchise taxes at regular corporate rates. We had 2 TRSs in 2020 and 2019. Our TRSs did not have significant tax provisions or deferred income tax items for 2018, 20172021, 2020 or 2016.2019. Our subsidiaries (other than our TRS), including our Operating Partnership, are partnerships, disregarded entities, QRSs or REITs, as applicable, for federal income tax purposes. Under applicable federal and state income tax rules, the allocated share of net income or loss from disregarded entities or flow-through entities is reportable in the income tax returns of the respective owners. Accordingly, no income tax provision is included in our consolidated financial statements for these entities.

New Accounting Pronouncements
Changes to US GAAP are implemented by the FASB in the form of ASUs. We consider the applicability and impact of all ASUs. Other thanWe did not adopt any ASUs during 2021, and as of the ASUs discussed below,date of this Report, the FASB has not issued any other ASUs during 2018 that we expect to be applicable and have a material impact on our future consolidated financial statements.
Adopted ASUs
During 2018 we adopted the ASUs listed below:
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (Topic 606), which provides guidance for the accounting of revenue from contracts with customers, and supersedes Topic 605, "Revenue Recognition", and most industry-specific guidance throughout the industry topics of the Codification. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, "Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)", which amends Topic 606 and clarifies the guidance for principal versus agent considerations. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, "Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing" which amends Topic 606 and provides guidance for identifying performance obligations and licensing. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, "Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients" which amends Topic 606 and provides guidance for a variety of revenue recognition related topics. In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-05 "Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets" (Subtopic 610-20), which provides guidance for recognizing gains and losses from the transfer of nonfinancial assets in contracts with non-customers. Sales of real estate are now accounted for under Subtopic 610-20 which focuses on a transfer of control. The amendments in these ASUs were effective in the first quarter of 2018 and were required to be applied on a retrospective basis. We adopted the ASU in the first quarter of 2018 and it did not have a material impact on our financial statements. Most of our revenues are derived from lease contracts with tenants and are not within the scope of the respective ASUs. Although our office parking revenues are within the scope of the respective ASUs, the timing and pattern of revenue recognition was not impacted.
Derivatives and Hedging
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities". The ASU requires the entire change in the fair value of the hedging instrument included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness be recorded in other comprehensive income. GAAP historically provided special hedge accounting only for the portion of the hedge deemed to be “highly effective” and requires an entity to separately reflect the amount by which the hedging instrument does not offset the hedged item, which is referred to as the “ineffective” amount. The amendments are effective in the first quarter of 2019 and are required to be applied on a prospective basis. We early adopted the ASU in the first quarter of 2018 and it did not have a material impact on our financial statements. The ASU requires the cumulative effect of initially applying the ASU as an adjustment to AOCI with a corresponding adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the ASU is adopted. On January 1, 2018, we recorded such an adjustment to AOCI and accumulated deficit of $211 thousand. See Note 10.
ASUs Not Yet Adopted
Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases" (Topic 842). The primary difference between Topic 842 and current GAAP is the recognition of lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet by lessees for leases classified as operating leases under current GAAP. The accounting applied by lessors is largely unchanged from current GAAP, for example, the vast majority of operating leases will remain classified as operating leases, and lessors will continue to recognize lease income for those leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Topic 842 requires separation of the lease from the non-lease components (for example, maintenance services or other activities that transfer a good or service to the customer) in a contract. Only the lease components should be accounted for in accordance with Topic 842. The consideration in the contract is allocated to the lease and non-lease components on a relative standalone selling price basis and the non-lease component would be accounted for in accordance with ASC 606 ("Revenue from Contracts with Customers"). In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11 which includes an optional practical expedient for lessors to elect, by class of underlying asset, to not separate the lease from the non-lease components if certain criteria are met. Based on our preliminary assessment, we expect that operating leases for which we are the lessor will qualify for the single component presentation, and we therefore expect to elect adoption of this practical expedient.

2021 Property Acquisitions and Dispositions
During 2021, we did not purchase or sell any properties.
2020 Property Disposition
In December 2020, we closed on the sale of an 80,000 square foot office property in Honolulu for a lease (whichcontract price of $21.0 million in cash, resulting in a gain of $6.4 million after transaction costs. The property sold was held by one of our consolidated JVs in which we have historically capitalized) as costs that would not have been incurred had the lease not been executed. Costsowned a two-thirds capital interest. The JV was subsequently dissolved prior to negotiate a lease that would have been incurred regardless of whether the lease was executed, such as employee salaries, are not considered to be initial direct costs, and may not be capitalized. We capitalized $7.9 million of leasing costs during the year ended December 31, 20182020.

We pay rent under a ground lease which expires on December 31, 2086. See Note 16 for more information regarding this ground lease. We currently account for the lease as an operating lease. We expect to recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability for this ground lease in the first quarter of 2019 when we adopt the ASU.

The treatment of our revenues could be impacted by Topic 842, however, we do not expect any impact to be material to our financial statements.
In December 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-20, an update to ASC Topic 842, Leases, which provides guidance on accounting for sales and other similar taxes collected from lessees, certain lessor costs, and recognition of variable payments for contracts with lease and nonlease components. We do not expect the ASU to have a material impact on our financial statements.
The ASUs are effective in the first quarter of 2019 and are required to be adopted using either a) a modified retrospective approach which results in a cumulative adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings (accumulated deficit) on January 1, 2017, and restatement of the amounts presented prior to January 1, 2019 for leases that existed or were entered into after January 1, 2017, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the 2019 consolidated financial statements, or b) a modified retrospective transition method which results in a cumulative adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings (accumulated deficit) on January 1, 2019 for leases that existed or were entered into prior to January 1, 2019, the effective date of the ASU. All leases entered into on or after January 1, 2019 would be accounted for as prescribed by ASC 842. ASC 842 provides a practical expedient package that allows entities to not (a) reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are considered or contain leases; (b) reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and (c) reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases. The Company plans to elect the modified retrospective transition method for adoption on January 1, 2019 and expects to elect the use of the practical expedient package described above. We plan to adopt the ASUs in the first quarter of 2019.

Consolidation of JV
3. Investment
On November 21, 2019, we acquired an additional 16.3% of the equity in Real Estate
We accountone of our previously unconsolidated Funds, Fund X, in exchange for $76.9 million in cash and 332 thousand OP Units valued at $14.4 million, which increased our property acquisitionsownership in the Fund to 89.0%. In connection with this transaction, we restructured the Fund with 1 remaining institutional investor. The new JV is a VIE, and as asset acquisitions. Prior to January 1, 2017,a result of the amended operating agreement, we accounted for our property acquisitions as business combinations.became the primary beneficiary of the VIE and commenced consolidating the JV on November 21, 2019. The acquired properties results of operationsthe consolidated JV are included in our operating results from November 21, 2019 (before November 21, 2019, our share of the Fund's net income was included in our statements of operations in Income from unconsolidated Funds).
The consolidation of the respective acquisition dates.JV required us to recognize the JVs identifiable assets and liabilities at fair value in our consolidated financial statements, along with the fair value of the non-controlling interest of $61.4 million. We recognized a gain of $307.9 million to adjust the carrying value of our existing investment in the JV to its estimated fair value upon consolidation.
2018 AcquisitionsThe gain was determined by taking the difference between: (a) the fair value of Fund X’s assets less its liabilities and (b) the sum of the fair value of the noncontrolling interest, carrying value of our existing investment in Fund X, and the amounts paid to acquire other Fund investors’ interests. We determined the fair value of Fund X’s assets and liabilities upon initial consolidation using our estimates of expected future cash flows and other valuation techniques. We estimated the fair values of Fund X’s properties by using the income and sales comparison valuation approaches which included, but are not limited to, our estimates of rental rates, comparable sales, revenue growth rates, capitalization rates and discount rates. Assumed debt was recorded at fair value based upon the present value of the expected future payments and current interest rates. Other acquired assets, including cash and assumed liabilities were recorded at cost due to the short-term nature of the balances.
During 2018, we did not purchase any properties.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features
WeOur swaps include credit-risk related contingent features. For example, we have agreements with eachcertain of our interest rate swap counterparties that contain a provision under which we could also be declared in default on our derivative obligations if we default onrepayment of the underlying indebtedness that we are hedging.hedging is accelerated by the lender due to our default on the indebtedness. As of December 31, 2018,2021, there have been no events of default with respect to our interest rate swaps, or our consolidated JVs' interest rate swaps, or unconsolidated Funds'our Fund's interest rate swaps. We do not post collateral for our interest rate swap contract liabilities.

12.13. Stock-Based Compensation
2016 Omnibus Stock Incentive PlanPlans
The Douglas Emmett, Inc. 2016 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan, as amended, our stock incentive plan (our "2016 Plan"), permits us to make grants of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, deferred stock awards, restricted stock awards, dividend equivalent rights and other stock-based awards. On May 28, 2020, our stockholders approved an amendment to the 2016 Plan to, among other things, increase the number of common shares for future awards by 9.5 million. We had an aggregate of 3.46.9 million shares available for grant as of December 31, 2018.2021. Awards such as LTIP Units, deferred stock and restricted stock, which deliver the full value of the underlying shares, are counted against the Plan limits as two2 shares. Awards such as stock options and stock appreciation rights are counted as one1 share. The number of shares reserved under our 2016 Plan is also subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, stock dividend or other change in our capitalization. Shares of stock underlying any awards that are forfeited, canceled or otherwise terminated (other than by exercise) are added back to the shares of stock available for future issuance under the 2016 Plan. For options exercised, our policy is to issue common stock on a net settlement basis - net of the exercise price and related taxes.
Until it expired in 2016, we made grants under our 2006 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (our "2006 Plan"), which was substantially similar to our 2016 Plan. No further awards may be granted under our 2006 Plan, although awards granted under the 2006 Plan in the past and which are still outstanding will continue to be governed by the terms of our 2006 Plan.
Our 2016 and 2006 Plans (the "Plans") are administered by the compensation committee of our board of directors. The compensation committee may interpret our Plans and make all determinations necessary or desirable for the administration of our Plans. The committee has full power and authority to select the participants to whom awards will be granted, to make any combination of awards to participants, to accelerate the exercisability or vesting of any award and to determine the specific terms and conditions of each award, subject to the provisions of our 2016 Plan.Plans. All officers, employees, directors and other key personnel (including consultants and prospective employees) are eligible to participate in our 2016 Plan.
We have made certain awards in the form of a separate series of units of limited partnership interests in our Operating Partnership called LTIP Units, which can be granted either as free-standing awards or in tandem with other awards under our 2016 Plan. Our LTIP Units are valued by reference to the value of our common stock at the time of grant, and are subject to such conditions and restrictions as the compensation committee may determine, including continued employment or service, and/or achievement of pre-established performance goals, financial metrics and other objectives. Once vested, LTIP Units can generally be converted to OP Units on a one1 for one basis, provided our stock price increases by more than a specified hurdle.
Employee Awards
We grant stock-based compensation in the form of LTIP Units as a part of our annual incentive compensation to various employees each year, a portion which vests at the date of grant, and the remainder which vests in three3 equal annual installments over the three3 calendar years following the grant date. Compensation expense for LTIP Units which are not vested at the grant date is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award. We have also made long-term grants in the form of LTIP Units to certain employees, which generally vest in equal annual installments over four to five calendar years following the grant date, and some of these grants include a portion which vests at the date of grant. In aggregate, we granted 8981.1 million, 1.1 million, and 802 thousand 800 thousand and 704 thousand LTIP Units to employees during 2018, 20172021, 2020 and 2016,2019, respectively.
Non-Employee Director Awards
As annual fees for their services, each of our non-employee directors receives a grant of LTIP Units that vests on a quarterly basis during the year the services are rendered, which is the calendar year following the grant date. WeIn aggregate, we granted 3752 thousand, 2855 thousand, and 3538 thousand LTIP Units to our non-employee directors during 2018, 20172021, 2020 and 2016,2019, respectively.

Compensation Expense
Total stock-based compensation expense, net of capitalized amounts, was $22.3 million, $18.5 million and $17.4 million during 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Certain amounts of stock-based compensation expense are capitalized for employees who provide leasing and construction services. We capitalized $5.0 million, $2.5 million, and $1.5 million during 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively. At December 31, 2018,2021, the total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for unvested LTIP Unit awards was $19.4$19.5 million, which will be recognized over a weighted-average term of two2 years.

13.14. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Our estimates of the fair value of financial instruments were determined using available market information and widely used valuation methods. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and determine an estimated fair value. The use of different market assumptions or valuation methods may have a material effect on the estimated fair values. The FASB fair value framework hierarchy distinguishes between assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity, and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market-based inputs. The hierarchy is as follows:
Level 1 - inputs utilize unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - inputs are observable either directly or indirectly for similar assets and liabilities in active markets.
Level 3 - inputs are unobservable assumptions generated by the reporting entity
As of December 31, 2018,2021, we did not have any fair value estimates of financial instruments using Level 3 inputs.
Financial instruments disclosed at fair value
Short term financial instruments:instruments
The carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents, tenant receivables, revolving credit line, interest payable, accounts payable, security deposits and dividends payable approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.
Secured notes payable:payable
See Note 78 for the details of our secured notes payable. We estimate the fair value of our consolidated secured notes payable by calculating the credit-adjusted present value of the principal and interest payments for each secured note payable. The calculation incorporates observable market interest rates which we consider to be Level 2 inputs, assumes that the loans will be outstanding through maturity, and excludesincludes any maturity extension options. The table below presents the estimated fair value and carrying value of our secured notes payable (excluding our revolving credit facility), the carrying value includes unamortized loan premium and excludes unamortized deferred loan fees:

| Carrying value | | $ | 5,050,732 | | | $ | 4,706,979 | |
Ground lease liability
See Note 4 for the details of our ground lease. We estimate the fair value of our ground lease liability by calculating the present value of the future lease payments disclosed in Note 4 using our incremental borrowing rate. The calculation incorporates observable market interest rates which we consider to be Level 2 inputs. The table below presents the estimated fair value and carrying value of our ground lease liability:

Financial instruments measured at fair value
Derivative instruments:instruments
See Note 910 for the details of our derivatives. We present our derivatives onin the consolidated balance sheetsheets at fair value, on a gross basis, excluding accrued interest. We estimate the fair value of our derivative instruments by calculating the credit-adjusted present value of the expected future cash flows of each derivative. The calculation incorporates the contractual terms of the derivatives, observable market interest rates which we consider to be Level 2 inputs, and credit risk adjustments to reflect the counterparty's as well as our own nonperformance risk. Our derivatives are not subject to master netting arrangements. The table below presents the estimated fair value of our derivatives:

14.15. Segment Reporting
Segment information is prepared on the same basis that our management reviews information for operational decision-making purposes. We operate in two2 business segments: (i) the acquisition, development, ownership and management of office real estate and (ii) the acquisition, development, ownership and management of multifamily real estate. The services for our office segment primarily include rental of office space and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. The services for our multifamily segment include rental of apartments and other tenant services, including parking and storage space rental. Asset information by segment is not reported because we do not use this measure to assess performance or make decisions to allocate resources. Therefore, depreciation and amortization expense is not allocated among segments. General and administrative expenses and interest expense are not included in segment profit as our internal reporting addresses these items on a corporate level.

17. Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees
Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we are party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. Excluding ordinary, routine litigation incidental to our business, we are not currently a party to any legal proceedings that we believe would reasonably be expected to have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Concentration of Risk
Tenant Receivables
We are subject to credit risk with respect to our tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables related to our tenant leases. Our tenants' ability to honor the terms of their respective leases remains dependent upon economic, regulatory and social factors. We seek to minimize our credit risk from our tenant leases byby: (i) targeting smaller, more affluent office tenants, from a diverse mix of industries, (ii) performing credit evaluations of prospective tenants, and (iii) obtaining security deposits or letters of credit from our tenants. In 2018, 2017During 2021, 2020 and 2016,2019, no tenant accounted for more than 10% of our total revenues. See our "Rental Revenues and Tenant Recoveries" accounting policy inNote 2 for the details of our allowancescharges to revenue for uncollectible amounts for tenant receivables and deferred rent receivables.
Geographic Risk
All of our properties, including the properties of our consolidated JVs and our unconsolidated Funds,Fund, are located in Los Angeles County, California and Honolulu, Hawaii, and we are therefore susceptible to adverse economic and regulatory developments, as well as natural disasters, in those markets.
Swap Counterparty Credit Risk
We are subject to credit risk with respect to our interest rate swap counterparties that we use to manage the risk associated with our floating rate debt. We do not post or receive collateral with respect to our swap transactions. Our swap contracts do not provide for right of offset between derivative contracts. See Note 910 for the details of our interest rate contracts. We seek to minimize our credit risk by entering into agreements with a variety of high quality counterparties with investment grade ratings.

Cash Balances
We have significant cash balances invested in a variety of short-term money market funds that are intended to preserve principal value and maintain a high degree of liquidity while providing current income. These investments are not insured against loss of principal and there is no guarantee that our investments in these funds will be redeemable at par value. We also have significant cash balances in bank accounts with high quality financial institutions with investment grade ratings. Interest bearing bank accounts at each U.S. banking institution are insured by the FDIC up to $250 thousand.
Asset Retirement Obligations
Conditional asset retirement obligations represent a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement is conditional on a future event that may or may not be within our control. A liability for a conditional asset retirement obligation must be recorded if the fair value of the obligation can be reasonably estimated. Environmental site assessments have identified twenty-eightNaN buildings in our Consolidated Portfolio and four buildings owned by our unconsolidated Funds which contain asbestos, and would have to be removed in compliance with applicable environmental regulations if these properties are demolished or undergo major renovations.
As of December 31, 2018,2021, the obligations to remove the asbestos from these properties if they were demolished or undergowhich are currently undergoing major renovations, or that we plan to renovate in the future, are not material to our consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2021, the obligations to remove the asbestos from our other properties have indeterminable settlement dates, and we are unable to reasonably estimate the fair value of the associated conditional asset retirement obligation. As of December 31, 2018, the obligations to remove the asbestos from properties that are currently undergoing major renovations, or that we plan to renovate in the future, are not material to our financial statements.obligations.
Contractual Commitments
Development and Other ContractsProjects
During 2016, we commenced building an additional 491 new apartments at our Moanalua Hillside Apartments in Honolulu, Hawaii. We also invested additional capital to upgrade the existing buildings, improve the parking and landscaping, built a new leasing and management office, and constructed a new fitness facility and two pools. In West Los Angeles, we are building a high-rise apartment building with 376 apartments. In downtown Honolulu, we are converting a 25 story, 493,000 square foot office tower into approximately 493 apartments in phases over a number of years as the office space is vacated. As of December 31, 2018,2021, we had an aggregate remaining contractual commitment for these and other development projects of approximately $202.9$69.7 million.
Other Contractual Commitments
As of December 31, 2018,2021, we had an aggregate remaining contractual commitment for repositionings, capital expenditure projects and tenant improvements of approximately $55.3$22.0 million.
