EXPLANATORY NOTE
This filing combines the Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the fiscal year endedOn December 31, 2019, of15, 2020, Apartment Investment and Management Company or(“Aimco”) completed the previously announced separation of its business into two, separate and distinct, publicly traded companies, Aimco and AIMCO Properties,Apartment Income REIT Corp. (“AIR”) (the “Separation”). Aimco OP L.P., or (the “Aimco Operating Partnership”) is the Aimco Operating Partnership. Where it is important to distinguish betweenoperating partnership in Aimco’s structure. Except as the two entities, wecontext otherwise requires, “Company,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to them specifically. Otherwise, references to “we,” “us,” or “our” mean collectively Aimco, the Aimco Operating Partnership, and their consolidated entities.subsidiaries, collectively.
Notwithstanding the legal form of the Separation, for accounting and financial reporting purposes, Aimco is presented as being spun-off from AIR. This presentation is in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, and is due primarily to the relative significance of Aimco’s business, as measured in terms of revenues, net income, assets, and other relevant indicators, as compared to those indicators of AIR before the Separation. Therefore, Aimco is considered “spun” for accounting purposes, and AIR is considered the divesting entity and treated as the accounting spinner, or accounting predecessor.
Aimco, a Maryland corporation, is a self-administered and self-managedexternally managed real estate investment trust, or REIT.trust. Aimco, through a wholly-owned subsidiaries,subsidiary, is the general partner and directly is the special limited partner of and, asthe Aimco Operating Partnership. As of December 31, 2019,2020, Aimco owned a 94.0% ownershipapproximately 93.2% of the legal interest in the common partnership units of the Aimco Operating Partnership and 94.8% of the economic interest in the Aimco Operating Partnership. The remaining 6.0%6.8% legal interest is owned by limited partners. As the sole general partner of the Aimco Operating Partnership, Aimco has exclusive control of the Aimco Operating Partnership’s day-to-day management.
The Aimco Operating Partnership holds all of Aimco’s assets and manages the daily operations of Aimco’s business. Pursuant to the Aimco Operating Partnership agreement, Aimco is required to contribute to the Aimco Operating Partnership all proceeds from the offerings of its securities. In exchange for the contribution of such proceeds, Aimco receives additional interests in the Aimco Operating Partnership with similar terms (e.g., if Aimco contributes proceeds of a stock offering, Aimco receives partnership units with terms substantially similar to the stock issued by Aimco).
We believe combiningThis amendment amends the periodic reports of Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership into this single report provides the following benefits:
|
|
|
|
|
|
We operate Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership as one enterprise, the management of Aimco directs the management and operationsAnnual Report on Form 10-K of the Aimco Operating Partnership,Company for the year ended December 31, 2020, that was originally filed with the SEC on March 12, 2021 (the “Original Filing”). The Company is filing this amendment for the purpose of providing the information required by Items 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 of Part III. This information was previously omitted from the members ofOriginal Filing in reliance on General Instruction G(3) to Form 10-K, which permits the Board of Directors of Aimco are identical to those of the Aimco Operating Partnership’s general partner.
We believe it is important to understand the few differences between Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnershipinformation in the context of how Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership operate as a consolidated company. Aimco has no assets or liabilities other than its investmentabove referenced items to be incorporated in the Aimco Operating Partnership. Also, AimcoForm 10-K by reference from a definitive proxy statement if such statement is a corporation that issues publicly traded equity from time to time, whereasfiled no later than 120 days after the Aimco Operating Partnership is a partnership that has no publicly traded equity. Except for the net proceeds from stock offerings by Aimco, which are contributed to the Aimco Operating Partnership in exchange for additional limited partnership interests (of a similar type and in an amount equal to the shares of stock sold in the offering), the Aimco Operating Partnership generates all remaining capital required by its business. These sources include the Aimco Operating Partnership’s working capital, net cash provided by operating activities, borrowings under its revolving credit facility, the issuance of debt and equity securities, including additional partnership units, and proceeds received from the sale of apartment communities.
Equity, partners’ capital, and noncontrolling interests are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of Aimco and those of the Aimco Operating Partnership. Interests in the Aimco Operating Partnership held by entities other than Aimco, which we refer to as OP Units, are classified within partners’ capital in the Aimco Operating Partnership’s financial statements and as noncontrolling interests in Aimco’s financial statements.
To help investors understand the differences between Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership, this report provides separate consolidated financial statements for Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership; a single set of consolidated notes to such financial statements that includes separate discussions of each entity’s stockholders’ equity or partners’ capital, and earnings per share or earnings per unit, as applicable; and a combined Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section that includes discrete information related to each entity.
This report also includes separate Part II, Item 9A. Controls and Procedures sections and separate Exhibits 31 and 32 certifications for Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership in order to establish that the requisite certifications have been made and that Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership are both compliant with Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and 18 U.S.C. §1350.Company’s fiscal year end.

Of the original independent directors on the Aimco Board, none remain. In connection with the Separation, six directors left the Aimco Board and the |

Engaged Board. In addition to regular access to management, the independent directors meet at least quarterly and receive written updates from the CEO regularly. In 2020, the Board held 21 meetings. |
Stockholder Engagement. Under the direction of |
Director Stock Ownership. By the completion of five years of service from the time of the Separation or from joining the Board, an independent director is expected to own shares having a value of at least five times the annual cash retainer for independent directors. |

Majority Voting with a Resignation Policy. Aimco requires its directors to be elected by a majority of the votes cast. Directors failing to get a majority of the votes cast are expected to tender their resignation. |
Proxy Access. Following a 2015 stockholder vote in favor of proxy access and after extensive engagement with stockholders, the Board amended the Company’s bylaws to provide proxy access. A stockholder or a group of up to 20 stockholders, owning at least 3% of our shares for three years, may submit nominees for up to 20% of the Board, or two nominees, whichever is greater, for inclusion in our proxy materials, subject to complying with the requirements contained in our bylaws. |
What Aimco Does Not Do |
Related Party Transactions. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee maintains a related party transaction policy to ensure that Aimco’s decisions are based on considerations only in the best interests of Aimco and its stockholders. |
Pledging or hedging shares held to satisfy stock ownership requirements. The Company’s insider trading policy places restrictions on the Company’s directors, executive officers, and all other employees entering into hedging transactions with respect to the Company’s securities (such as, but not limited to, zero-cost collars, equity swaps, and forward sale contracts) and from holding the Company’s securities in margin accounts or otherwise pledging such securities as collateral for loans. Pledging or hedging transactions are permitted only in very limited circumstances, and only with respect to shares held in excess of stock ownership requirements. Hedging transactions may not be entered into with regard to Aimco securities that are subject to a risk of forfeiture (e.g., restricted stock awards) and Aimco directors, executive officers, other officers, and certain other employees must receive preclearance from Aimco’s legal department before engaging in any hedging transactions. No directors or executive officers have in place any hedging or pledging transactions. |
Interlocking Directorships. No member of Aimco management serves on a Board or a compensation committee of a company at which an Aimco director is also an employee. |
Director Overboarding. Aimco’s corporate governance guidelines and committee charters limit the number of other boards and the number of other audit committees on which an Aimco director may serve. Typically, an Aimco director is limited to service on four or fewer boards (including the Company’s) and is limited to service on three or fewer audit committees, including |
Retirement Age or Term Limits. Rather than impose arbitrary limits on service, the Company regularly (and at least annually) reviews each director’s continued role on the Board and considers the need for periodic board refreshment. |
Meetings and Committees
The Board held 21 meetings during the year ended December 31, 2020. During 2020, there were the following five committees: Audit; Compensation and Human Resources; Nominating and Corporate Governance; Investment; and Redevelopment and Construction. During 2020, no director attended fewer than 75% of the aggregate total number of meetings of the Board and each committee on which such director served.
The Corporate Governance Guidelines, as described below, provide that the Company generally expects that the Chairman of the Board will attend all annual and special meetings of the stockholders. Other members of the Board are not required to attend such meetings. All of the members of the Board attended the Company’s 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, joining electronically due to the health orders imposed with respect to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the Company anticipates that all of the members of the Board will attend the next annual meeting of stockholders when held.

PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
The Company
Aimco is a Maryland corporation incorporated on January 10, 1994. Aimco is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust, or REIT, focused on the ownership, management, redevelopment, and some development of quality apartment communities located in several of the largest markets in the United States. Those markets include: Atlanta; the San Francisco Bay Area; Boston; Chicago; Denver; Greater New York City; Greater Washington, D.C.; Los Angeles; Miami/Dade County; Philadelphia; San Diego; and Seattle.
Aimco, through its wholly owned subsidiaries, AIMCO-GP, Inc. and AIMCO-LP Trust, owns a majority of the ownership interests in the Aimco Operating Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership formed on May 16, 1994. Aimco conducts all of its business and owns all of its assets through the Aimco Operating Partnership.
Please refer to Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements in Item 8 for discussion regarding our segments.
Business Overview
Our business activities are defined by a commitment to our core values of integrity, respect, collaboration, performance, and a focus on our customers. These values and our corporate mission, “to consistently provide quality apartment homes in a respectful environment delivered by a team of people who care,” shape our culture. In all of our interactions with residents, team members, business partners, lenders, and equity holders, we aim to be the best owner and operator of apartment communities and an outstanding corporate citizen.
Our principal financial objective is to provide predictable and attractive returns to our equity holders. We measure our long- term total return using Economic Income, defined as Net Asset Value, or NAV, growth plus dividends. NAV is used by many investors because the value of company assets can be readily estimated, even for non-earning assets such as land or properties under development. NAV has the advantage of incorporating the investment decisions of thousands of real estate investors, enhancing comparability among companies that have differences in their accounting and avoiding disparity that can result from application of GAAP to investment properties and various ownership structures. Over the past five years as of December 31, 2019, we have generated Economic Income at a compounded annual return of 10%. Some investors focus on multiples of Adjusted Funds From Operations, or AFFO, and Funds From Operations as defined by Nareit, or Nareit FFO. Our disclosure of AFFO, a measure of current return, complements our focus on Economic Income. We also use Pro forma Funds From Operations, or Pro forma FFO, as a secondary measure of operational performance.
Our business plan to achieve our principal financial objective is to:

Audit Committee
The results fromAudit Committee currently consists of the executionIndependent Directors. Mr. Leupp serves as the chairman of our business planthe Audit Committee. The Audit Committee has a written charter that is reviewed annually and was last amended in January 2021. In addition to the work of the Audit Committee, the chairman has regular and recurring conversations with Ms. Stanfield, Aimco’s Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), Ms. Johnson, Aimco’s Chief Administrative Officer (“CAO”), Justin Frenzel, Aimco’s Chief Accounting Officer, the head of Aimco’s internal audit function, and representatives of Ernst & Young LLP. The Audit Committee’s charter is posted on Aimco’s website (www.aimco.com) and is also available in print to stockholders, upon written request to Aimco’s Corporate Secretary.
The Audit Committee’s responsibilities are discussedset forth in the Executive Overview in Item 7.
Our business is organized around five areas of strategic focus: operational excellence; redevelopment and development; portfolio management; balance sheet; and team and culture.
2
Operational Excellence
We own and operate a portfolio of apartment communities, diversified by both geography and price point. As of December 31, 2019, our portfolio included 124 apartment communities with 32,839 apartment homes in which we held an average ownership of approximately 99%, and approximately 80% of the value of our portfolio, measured by gross asset value (the estimated fair value of our communities), was attributable to Same Store communities.
To manage our property operations efficiently and to increase the benefits from our local management expertise, we give direct responsibility for operations within each area to area operations leaders with regular oversight by senior management. To enable the area operations leaders to focus on sales and service, as well as to improve financial control and budgeting, we have dedicated area financial officers who support the operations leaders. Additionally, with the exception of routine maintenance and purchases and installation of equipment, we have specialized teams that manage capital spending related to larger and more complicated construction.
We seek to improve our property operations by: employing service-oriented, well-trained team members; taking advantage of advances in technology; increasing automation; centralizing operational tasks where efficient to do so; standardizing business processes, operational measurements, and internal reporting; and enhancing financial controls over field operations. We focus on the following areas:

Redevelopment and Development
Our second line of business isThe Audit Committee held five meetings during the redevelopment and some development of apartment communities. Through redevelopment activities, we expect to create value by repositioning apartment communities within our portfolio. We undertake ground-up development when warranted by risk-adjusted investment returns, either directly or in connection with the redevelopment of an existing apartment community. When warranted, we rely on the expertise and credit of a third-party developer familiar with the local market to limit our exposure to construction risk. Over the past five years, we have spent approximately $1.0 billion on redevelopment and development, targeting FCF internal rates of return of approximately 9% to 11% on these investments.
We undertake a range of redevelopments, including: those in which buildings or exteriors are renovated without the need to vacate a significant percentage of apartment homes, or short-cycle redevelopments; those in which significant renovation of apartment homes may be accomplished upon lease expiration and turnover; and those in which an entire building or community is vacated, or long-cycle redevelopments. We often execute redevelopment using a phased approach, in which we renovate an apartment community in stages. Redevelopment work may include seeking entitlements from local governments, which enhance the value of our existing portfolio by increasing density; that is, the right to add apartment homes to a site.
We invest to earn risk-adjusted returns in excess of those expected from the communities sold in paired trades to fund the redevelopment or development. Of these two activities, we generally favor redevelopment because it permits adjustment to the scope and timing of spending to align with changing market conditions and customer preferences.
Portfolio Management
Our portfolio management strategy involves the allocation of investment capital to enhance rent growth and increase long-term capital values through portfolio design, emphasizing land value as well as location and submarket. We target geographic diversification in our portfolio in order to reduce the volatility of our rental revenue and to reduce the risk of undue concentration in any particular market. Similarly, we seek price point diversification by owning apartment communities that offer apartment homes at rents below those asked by competitive new building supply.
Our portfolio of apartment communities is diversified across “A,” “B,” and “C+” price points, averaging “B/B+” in quality and is also diversified across several of the largest markets in the United States. Please refer to the Executive Overview section in Item 7 for a description of our portfolio quality ratings. As of December 31, 2019, our portfolio was allocated about one-half to “A” rated properties, and about one-half to “B” and “C+” rated properties.
As part of our portfolio strategy, we seek to sell up to 10% of our portfolio annually and to reinvest the proceeds from such sales in accretive uses such as capital enhancements, redevelopments, some developments, and selective acquisitions with projected FCF internal rates of return higher than expected from the communities being sold. Through this disciplined approach to capital recycling, we increase the quality and expected growth rate of our portfolio.
Balance Sheet
Our leverage strategy seeks to increase financial returns by using leverage with appropriate caution. We limit risk through our balance sheet structure, employing low leverage, primarily non-recourse and long-dated property debt; build financial flexibility by maintaining ample unused and available credit as well as holding properties with substantial value unencumbered by property debt; and use partners’ capital when it enhances financial returns or reduces investment risk.
Our leverage includes our share of long-term, non-recourse, property debt encumbering apartment communities, outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility, outstanding preferred equity, and redeemable noncontrolling interests in a consolidated real estate partnership.
4
We target a ratio of Proportionate Debt and Preferred Equity to adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization for real estate, or Adjusted EBITDAre, as defined by Nareit, below 7.0x and we target a ratio of Adjusted EBITDAre to Adjusted Interest Expense and Preferred Dividends greater than 2.5x.
Our ratios as of December 31, 2019, were 7.6x and 3.5x, respectively. We delayed approximately $300 million of sales originally planned for fourth quarter 2019 and January 2020, which increased Proportionate Debt to Adjusted EBITDAre and Proportionate Debt and Preferred Equity to Adjusted EBITDAre by 0.3x as of December 31, 2019. We expect a gradual decline in leverage to EBITDAre ratios throughout 2020, reaching approximately 6.4x and 6.5x, respectively, at year end. In future years, we expect earnings growth from completed redevelopments will increase EBITDAre and further reduce our leverage ratios.
Please refer to the Leverage Ratios subsection to the Non-GAAP Measures section in Item 7 for additional information regarding our leverage ratios.
Our liquidity consists of cash balances and available capacity on our revolving credit facility. As of December 31, 2019, we had cash and restricted cash of $177.7 million and had capacity to borrow $517.8 million under our revolving credit facility.
We manage our financial flexibility by maintaining an investment grade rating and holding apartment communities that are unencumbered by property debt. As of December 31, 2019, we held unencumbered communities with an estimated fair market value of approximately $2.4 billion.
Please refer to the Executive Overview and Liquidity and Capital Resources sections in Item 7 for additional information regarding our balance sheet and liquidity.
Team and Culture
Our team and culture are keys to our success. Our intentional focus on a collaborative and productive culture based on respect for others and personal responsibility is reinforced by a preference for promotion from within. We focus on succession planning and talent development to produce a strong, stable team that is the enduring foundation of our success. We offer benefits reinforcing our value of caring for each other, including paid time for parental leave, paid time annually to volunteer in local communities, college scholarships for the children of team members, an emergency fund to help team members in crisis, financial support for our team members who are becoming United States citizens, and a bonus structure at all levels of the organization. We also pay full compensation and benefits for team members who are actively deployed by the United States military. Out of hundreds of participating companies in 2019, Aimco was one of only seven recognized as a “Top Workplace” in Colorado for each of the past seven years. Aimco was also recognized as a Top Workplace in the Bay Area in 2019. Also in 2019, Aimco was the only real estate company to receive a BEST award from the Association for Talent Development in recognition of our company-wide success in talent development, marking our second consecutive year receiving this award.
Competition
In attracting and retaining residents to occupy our apartment communities we compete with numerous other housing providers. Our apartment communities compete directly with other rental apartments, as well as condominiums and single-family homes that are available for rent or purchase in the markets in which our apartment communities are located. Principal factors of competition include rent or price charged, attractiveness of the location and apartment community, and the quality and breadth of services. The number of competitive apartment communities relative to demand in a particular area has a material effect on our ability to lease apartment homes at our apartment communities and on the rents we charge. In certain markets, there exists an oversupply of newly-constructed apartment homes, single-family homes, and condominiums relative to consumer demand, which affects the pricing and occupancy of our rental apartments.
We also compete with other real estate investors, including other apartment REITs, pension and investment funds, partnerships, and investment companies in acquiring, redeveloping, managing, obtaining financing for, and disposing of apartment communities. This competition affects our ability to acquire apartment communities we want to add to our portfolio and the price that we pay in such acquisitions; our ability to finance or refinance communities in our portfolio and the cost of such financing; and our ability to dispose of communities we no longer desire to retain in our portfolio and the timing and price available to us when we seek to dispose of such communities.
Taxation
Aimco
Aimco has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which we refer to as the Code, commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 1994, and intends2020. As set forth in the Audit Committee’s charter, no director may serve as a member of the Audit Committee if such director serves on the audit committee of more than two other public companies, unless the Board determines that such simultaneous service would not impair the ability of such director to continue to operate in such a manner. The Code imposes various requirements related to organizational structure, distribution levels, diversityeffectively serve on the Audit Committee. No member of stock ownership, and

Compensation and Human Resources Committee
The Compensation and Human Resources Committee currently consists of the Independent Directors. Mr. Sykes serves as the chairman of the Compensation and Human Resources Committee. The chairman meets regularly with Ms. Johnson, Aimco’s CAO. The Chairman also has regular conversations with the Compensation and Human Resources Committee’s independent compensation consultant, Willis Towers Watson, and outside counsel with expertise in executive compensation and compensation governance related matters. The Compensation and Human Resources Committee has a REIT.

The Investment Committee’s purpose is to provide oversight and guidance to the Company’s management regarding investment decisions. The Investment Committee held four meetings during the year ended December 31, 2020.
Redevelopment and Construction Committee
The Redevelopment and Construction Committee consisted of the pre-Separation independent directors. Ms. Sperling served as the chairman of the Redevelopment and Construction Committee until the Separation. Ms. Sperling met regularly with Aimco’s redevelopment and construction leadership and assessed the progress of development and redevelopment and project status. The Redevelopment and Construction Committee’s purposes were to provide oversight and guidance to the Company’s management regarding development, redevelopment, and construction by reviewing work process, policies and standards, recommending modifications thereto and directing related analytical and progress reporting. The Redevelopment and Construction Committee held four meetings during the year ended December 31, 2020. Following the Separation, development, redevelopment, and construction became a focus subject at every Board meeting, eliminating the need for a standing Redevelopment and Construction Committee, and it was disbanded accordingly.
Board Composition, Board Refreshment, and Director Tenure
Aimco is focused on having a well-constructed and high performing board. To that end, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee selects nominees for director based on, among other things, breadth and depth of experience, knowledge, skills, expertise, integrity, ability to make independent analytical inquiries, understanding of Aimco’s operations, orbusiness environment, and willingness to devote adequate time and effort to Board responsibilities. In considering nominees for director, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee seeks to have a portion thereof, including property managementdiverse range of experience and risk management are conducted through taxable REIT subsidiaries, each of which we referexpertise relevant to asAimco’s business. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee places a TRS. A TRS is a subsidiary C-corporation that has not elected REIT status and, as such, is subject to United States federal corporate income tax. We use TRS entities to facilitate our ability to offer certain services and activities to our residents and investment partners that cannot be offered directly by a REIT. We also use TRS entities to hold investments in certain apartment communities.
The Aimco Operating Partnership

Regulation
General
Apartment communities and their owners are subject to various laws, ordinances, and regulations, including those related to real estate broker licensing and regulations relating to recreational facilities such as swimming pools, activity centers, and other common areas. Changes in laws increasing the potential liability for environmental conditions existing on communities or increasing the restrictions on discharges or other conditions,some stockholders as well as changesthe discussions of some commentators that suggest lengthy Board tenure should be balanced with new perspectives. Specific to Aimco, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has structured the Board such that there are directors of varying tenures, with new directors and perspectives joining the Board every few years while retaining the institutional memory of longer-tenured directors. Longer-tenured directors, balanced with less-tenured directors, enhance the Board’s oversight capabilities. Aimco’s directors work effectively together, coordinate closely with senior management, comprehend Aimco’s challenges and opportunities, and frame Aimco’s business strategy. Aimco’s Board members have established relationships that allow the Board to apply effectively its collective business savvy in laws affecting development, construction,guiding the Aimco enterprise.
When formulating its Board membership recommendations, the Nominating and safety requirements, may resultCorporate Governance Committee also considers advice and recommendations from others, including stockholders, as it deems appropriate. Such recommendations are evaluated based on the same criteria noted above. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider as nominees to the Board for election at the next annual meeting of stockholders persons who are recommended by stockholders in significant unanticipated expenditures, which would adversely affect our net incomewriting, marked to the attention of Aimco’s Corporate Secretary, no later than July 1, 2021.
The Board is responsible for nominating members for election to the Board and cash flows from operating activities. In addition, existing rent control laws, as well as future enactment of rent control or rent stabilization laws, or other laws regulating multifamily housing, may reduce rental revenue or increase operating costs in particular markets.
Environmental
Various federal, state, and local laws subject apartment community owners or operators to liability for management, andfilling vacancies on the costs of removal or remediation, of certain potentially hazardous materialsBoard that may be present at an apartment community. These materials may include lead-based paint, asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyls, and petroleum-based fuels. Such laws often impose liability without regard to fault or whether the owner or operator knewoccur between annual meetings of or was responsible for, the release or presence of such materials. stockholders.
Board Leadership Structure
In connection with the Separation, the Board concluded that separating the Chairman and CEO role would be most effective for the Company’s leadership and governance. Mr. Miller serves as Chairman of the Board, which includes: presiding over executive sessions of the Independent Directors, which are held regularly and not less than four times per year; with the CEO, setting meeting agendas and schedules; calling meetings of the Independent Directors; and being available for direct communication with stockholders.
The Board has a majority of independent directors. Eight out of the ten directors are independent. All four standing committees (Audit; Compensation and Human Resources; Nominating and Corporate Governance; and Investment) are composed solely of independent directors.
Separate Sessions of Independent Directors
Aimco’s Corporate Governance Guidelines (described below) provide that the non-management directors shall meet in executive session without management on a regularly scheduled basis, but no less than four times per year. The non-management directors, which group currently is made up of the eight Independent Directors, met in executive session without management nine times during the year ended December 31, 2020.
The following table sets forth the number of meetings held by the Board and each committee during the year ended December 31, 2020.

Majority Voting for the Election of Directors
In an uncontested election at the meeting of stockholders, any nominee to serve as a director of the Company will be elected if the director receives a majority of votes cast, which means that the number of shares voted “for” a director exceeds the number of shares voted “against” that director. With respect to a contested election, a plurality of all the votes cast at the meeting of stockholders will be sufficient to elect a director. The following is not considered votes cast “for” or “against” a director nominee: (a) a share otherwise present at the meeting but for which there is an abstention and (b) a share otherwise present at the meeting as to with a stockholder gives no direction. If a nominee who currently is serving as a director receives a greater number of “against” votes for his or her election than votes “for” such election (a “Majority Against Vote”) in an uncontested election, Maryland law provides that the director would continue to serve on the Board as a “holdover director.” However, under Aimco’s Bylaws, any nominee for election as a director in an uncontested election who receives a Majority Against Vote is obligated to tender his or her resignation to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee for consideration. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider any resignation and recommend to the Board whether to accept it. The Board is required to take action with respect to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s recommendation within 90 days following certification of the stockholder vote. Additional details are set out in Article II, Section 2.03 (Election and Tenure of Directors; Resignations) of Aimco’s Bylaws.
Proxy Access
At our 2015 annual meeting, a proxy access stockholder proposal received the support of a majority of the votes cast. That proposal requested the Board to adopt a bylaw that would require the Company to include in its proxy materials nominees for director proposed by a stockholder or group that owns at least 3% of our outstanding shares for at least three years. Following that meeting, through the summer and fall of 2015 and into 2016, we engaged in extensive stockholder outreach and discussed proxy access with stockholders representing over 66% of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of September 30, 2015, including all 10 of Aimco’s largest stockholders as of that date.
Although our stockholders expressed varying views on proxy access generally, and on the specific terms of a proxy access bylaw, many stockholders indicated that they viewed proxy access as an important stockholder right. At the same time, many stockholders expressed concern that stockholders with a small economic interest could abuse proxy access and impose unnecessary costs on the Company. In particular, stockholders expressed support for a reasonable limit on the number of stockholders who could come together to form a nominating group, with a consensus around a 20 stockholder limit, so long as certain related funds were counted as one stockholder for this purpose. In addition, many stockholders expressed support for the principle that a proxy access bylaw provide for a minimum of two candidates, with that principle being more meaningful to stockholders than the percentage of the board used to calculate the number of permitted proxy access candidates.
Stockholders expressed general flexibility concerning most other proxy access terms, including counting directors nominated as access candidates who are elected and re-nominated by the Board when determining the limit on access candidates for a limited number of years, and eliminating proxy access at the same annual meeting for which a nomination notice outside of proxy access has been submitted by another stockholder. Also, stockholders indicated that post-meeting holding requirements would be considered overly restrictive, but that a statement regarding post-meeting intentions that did not require continued ownership operation,was acceptable.
The feedback received from stockholders was reported to the Nominating and managementCorporate Governance Committee and to the Board. Following a review of apartment communities, we could potentially be liablethat feedback, corporate governance best practices and trends and the Company’s particular facts and circumstances, the Board amended the Company’s bylaws to provide a proxy access right to stockholders. As a result, a stockholder or a group of up to 20 stockholders, owning at least 3% of our shares for environmental liabilitiesat least three years, may submit nominees for up to 20% of the Board, or costs associatedtwo nominees, whichever is greater, for inclusion in our proxy materials, subject to complying with the requirements contained in our current communities, communities we acquirebylaws.
Code of Ethics
The Board has adopted a code of ethics entitled “Code of Business Conduct and Ethics” that applies to the members of the Board, all of Aimco’s executive officers and all teammates of Aimco or manageits subsidiaries, including Aimco’s principal executive officer, principal financial officer, and principal accounting officer. The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is posted on Aimco’s website (www.aimco. com) and is also available in print to stockholders, upon written request to Aimco’s Corporate Secretary. If, in the future, Aimco amends, modifies or communities we previously owned or operatedwaives a provision in the past.Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, rather than filing a Current Report on Form 8-K, Aimco intends to satisfy any applicable disclosure requirement under Item 5.05 of Form 8-K by posting such information on Aimco’s website (www.aimco.com), as necessary.
Corporate Governance Guidelines and Director Stock Ownership
The Board has adopted and approved Corporate Governance Guidelines. These guidelines, which were last updated in April 2021, are available on Aimco’s website (www.aimco.com) and are also available in print to stockholders, upon written request to Aimco’s Corporate Secretary. In general, the Corporate Governance Guidelines address director qualification standards, director responsibilities, the role of the Chairman of the Board or Lead Independent Director, as applicable, director access to management and independent advisors, director compensation, director orientation and continuing education, the role of the Board in planning management succession, stock ownership guidelines and retention requirements, and an annual performance evaluation of the Board.
With respect to stock ownership guidelines for the Independent Directors, the Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that by the completion of five years of service from the date of the Separation or from joining the Board, whichever is later, an Independent Director is expected to own shares having a value of at least five times the annual cash retainer for independent directors. Mr. Miller has holdings in excess of this amount. Due to the Separation and recent board refreshment, the other risks related to environmental matters are describedIndependent Directors do not yet have holdings in more detail in Item 1A.

FailureSeparation
As noted previously, on December 15, 2020, Aimco completed the separation of its business into two, separate and distinct publicly traded companies, Aimco and AIR. As part of the Separation, Aimco’s founder, Chairman of the Board, and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), Terry Considine, became the CEO of AIR. Aimco’s CFO, Paul Beldin, became the CFO of AIR, Aimco’s General Counsel, Lisa Cohn, became the President and General Counsel of AIR, and Aimco’s head of property operations, Keith Kimmel, became the head of property operations of AIR (collectively, the “Previous Management Team”). Effective as of the Separation, Aimco’s management team consists of the following three executives: Wes Powell, President and CEO (Aimco’s Executive Vice President (“EVP”), Redevelopment prior to generate sufficient net operating income may adversely affectthe Separation); Lynn Stanfield, EVP and CFO (Aimco’s EVP, Financial Performance & Analysis and Capital Allocation prior to the Separation); and Jennifer Johnson, EVP, CAO and General Counsel (Aimco’s Senior Vice President, Human Resources prior to the Separation) (collectively, the “New Management Team”). The Previous Management Team and the New Management Team together constitute our liquidity, limit our abilitynamed executive officers (“NEOs”) for 2020. Unless otherwise noted, references to fund necessary capital expenditures,CEO pay in this CD&A refer to Mr. Considine, as he was CEO for all but two weeks of 2020.

Stockholder Engagement Regarding Executive Compensation
At Aimco’s 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, approximately 98% of the votes cast in the advisory vote on executive compensation (also commonly referred to pay dividends or distributions.
Our abilityas “Say on Pay”) approved the compensation of Aimco’s NEOs as disclosed in Aimco’s 2020 proxy statement. The Compensation and Human Resources Committee (the “Committee”) and Aimco management remain committed to fund necessary capital expenditures on our communities depends on, among other things, our abilityextensive engagement with stockholders as part of ongoing efforts to generate net operating income in excess of required debt payments. If we are unableformulate and implement an executive compensation program designed to fund capital expenditures on our communities, we may not be able to preservealign the competitivenesslong-term interests of our communities,executive officers with those of our stockholders. In 2019 and early 2020, we engaged with stockholders representing approximately 70% of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of September 30, 2019, as part of our annual process of soliciting feedback on Aimco’s executive compensation program.
In the summer and fall of 2020, Aimco engaged with stockholders representing approximately 73% of Common Stock outstanding as of September 30, 2020. Although Aimco’s second outreach in 2020 was primarily focused on soliciting stockholder feedback on the Separation, Aimco also held discussions with some stockholders about its executive compensation program in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The following chart summarizes the collective feedback we received, and actions we have taken in response.
Stockholder Feedback | Action Taken | |
Overall Program. The Company continued to receive broad support from stockholders on the structure of its executive compensation program, the program’s alignment of pay and performance, and the quantum of compensation delivered under the program. | Based on the broad support received from stockholders, the Company made no changes to the structure of the program in 2020. | |
Disclosure. Stockholders appreciated the thorough disclosure and encouraged Aimco to continue the same level of disclosure. A few stockholders requested that Aimco provide disclosure on performance for “in progress” LTI awards. | The Company has added a chart disclosing performance as of year-end for “in progress” LTI awards as well as performance results for LTI awards for the three most recently completed performance periods. | |
STI Plan. Stockholders are broadly pleased with the STI plan goals and disclosure of results. | Given that the Company’s STI goals are directly aligned with the Company’s five areas of strategic focus that drive long-term value creation, and have received broad support from stockholders, the Company did not make changes to the structure of its STI goals in 2020. | |
LTI Plan. The Company’s three-year, forward looking plan measured upon relative TSR continued to receive broad support from stockholders. Most stockholders maintained that relative TSR should be the only LTI metric. However, a few stockholders encouraged the Company to consider adding a non-TSR based metric to its LTI plan with the rationale that relative TSR is not the best indicator of management effectiveness, day-to-day operational performance, or capital allocation effectiveness. | The Compensation Committee has reviewed the structure of the Company’s LTI plan and has discussed whether to add a metric to the Company’s LTI plan. Given that the Company’s LTI plan received broad support from stockholders, the Company did not make changes to the general structure of its LTI plan in 2020. The Company will continue its review and evaluation of the LTI plan structure, as well as its ongoing dialogue with stockholders on LTI plan structure and metrics and other compensation matters. | |
Impact of COVID-19 on Compensation Plans. Like many other companies, Aimco had finalized its 2020 executive compensation plan prior to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. STI goals were set, and LTI awards were granted, in late January 2020. The pandemic rendered moot two of the Company’s six 2020 STI goals. The Company had extensive conversations with stockholders, compensation consultants, proxy commentators, and outside counsel. Each of these constituencies stated they expected compensation committees to exercise discretion with respect to 2020 STI plans and, provided the discretionary adjustments were reasonable and disclosed thoroughly, companies should not expect a negative Say on Pay vote. These same constituencies advised that “above target” payouts where discretion is applied and/or metrics are changed from the plan established at the beginning of the year would be heavily scrutinized, especially where there is a pay and performance misalignment. They also encouraged the Company to leave its LTI plan intact and not cancel and re-issue awards, or grant new awards, as a result of the pandemic. Finally, these constituencies stated they would view any changes made to executive compensation programs with an eye toward whether the Company laid off, furloughed, or cut pay below the executive level. | As described in detail in this CD&A, the Company carefully considered the advice of stockholders, compensation consultants, proxy commentators, and outside counsel, and its actions with respect to the 2020 executive compensation program are consistent with the advice of each of these constituencies. The Company’s business of providing homes is essential, and the Company remained open, serving residents, throughout the pandemic. The Company made a commitment to its entire team at the onset of the pandemic, that: any teammate who felt unsafe at work because of the virus was free to stay home, with pay and without penalty; the Company would cover all costs related to COVID-19 testing and treatment; and the team would remain intact, without layoffs or pay cuts. The Company’s commitment to its team is reflected in its highest ever recorded team engagement scores: 4.5 out of 5 for site teams, and 4.42 out of 5 for the entire Company, in 2020. The Company replaced the two 2020 STI goals rendered moot by the pandemic with a goal consisting of the Company’s response to the pandemic. Despite outperformance on the four original goals that remained intact, the Company capped overall STI goal performance at target. The Company made no changes to its 2020 LTI or prior year outstanding awards nor did it grant any new awards following the onset of the pandemic. Mr. Considine’s 2020 compensation, despite spearheading and leading the Company through the Separation and thereby unlocking $1B in stockholder value, was capped at target and he received no additional compensation related to the Separation (as described below). |
Overview of Aimco’s Pay-for-Performance Philosophy and 2020 Performance Results
Aimco is a pay-for-performance organization. Aimco starts by setting target total compensation near the median of target total compensation for Aimco’s peers as identified on page 23, both as a measure of fairness and also to provide an economic incentive to remain with Aimco. Actual compensation varies from target compensation based on Aimco’s results. Each officer’s annual cash incentive compensation, “short term incentive” or STI, is based in part on Aimco’s performance against corporate, rather than personal, goals. The more senior the officer, the greater the percentage of his or her STI that is based on Aimco’s performance against its corporate goals. Aimco’s longer term compensation, “long term incentive” or LTI, follows a similar tiered structure. Each officer’s LTI is based in part on Aimco’s “total stockholder return” or TSR, relative to its peers, with executive officers having a greater share of their LTI based on relative TSR. In the case of Mr. Considine, his entire LTI award is “at risk” based on Aimco’s relative TSR. LTI is measured and vests over time, typically a period of four years, so that officers bear longer term exposure to the decisions they make.
To reinforce alignment of stockholder and management interests, Aimco also has stock ownership guidelines that require substantial equity holdings by executive officers, as described further on page 37.
Aimco completed the separation of AIR from Aimco, unlocking $1 billion of stockholder value. The total shareholder return (“TSR”) of the combined companies outperformed the six large apartment REITs comprising the Company’s multi-family peer group by more than 1,900 basis points from the announcement of the Separation in September 2020 through December 31, 2020. On the same combined basis, TSR was the best of the coastal apartment REITs for the past one, two, three, and five years. Coastal apartment REIT peers consisted of Avalon Bay Communities, Inc., Essex Property Trust, Equity Residential, and UDR, Inc., which could adversely affect their net operating incomeoffer greater comparability in geographic markets and long-term value.average rent levels. Multi-family peers included the coastal apartment REIT peers and also included Camden Property Trust and Mid-America Apartment Communities.

Competition could limit our ability to lease apartment homes or increase or maintain rents.
Our apartment communities compete for residents with other housing alternatives, including other rental apartments and condominiums, and, to a lesser degree, single-family homes that are available for rent, as well as new and existing condominiums and single-family homes for sale. Competitive residential housing, as well as household formation and job creation in a particular area, could adversely affect our ability to lease apartment homes and to increase or maintain rental rates.
Because real estate investments are relatively illiquid, we may not be able to sell apartment communities when appropriate.
Real estate investments are relatively illiquid and generally cannot be sold quickly. REIT tax rules also restrict our ability to sell apartment communities. Thus, we may not be able to change our portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic or other market conditions. Our ability to dispose of apartment communities in the future will depend on prevailing economic and market conditions, including the cost and availability of financing. This could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
If we are not successful in our acquisition of apartment communities, our results of operations could be adversely affected.
The selective acquisition of apartment communities is a component of our strategy. However, we may not be able to complete transactions successfully in the future. Although we seek to acquire apartment communities when such acquisitions increase our FCF internal rates of return and are accretive to NAV, such transactions may fail to perform in accordance with our expectations. In particular, following acquisition, the value and operational performance of an apartment community may be diminished if obsolescence or neighborhood changes occur before we are able to redevelop or sell the apartment community. This could have an adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
Potential liability or other expenditures associated with potential environmental contamination may be costly.
Various federal, state, and local laws subject apartment community owners or operators to liability for management, and the costs of removal or remediation, of certain potentially hazardous materials that may be present in the land or buildings of an apartment community. Potentially hazardous materials may include polychlorinated biphenyls, petroleum-based fuels, lead-based paint, or asbestos, among other materials. Such laws often impose liability without regard to fault or whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such materials. The presence of, or the failure to manage or remediate properly, these materials may adversely affect occupancy at such apartment communities as well as the ability to sell or finance such apartment communities. In addition, governmental agencies may bring claims for costs associated with investigation and remediation actions, damages to natural resources and for potential fines or penalties in connection with such damage or with respect to the improper management of hazardous materials. Moreover, private plaintiffs may potentially make claims for investigation and remediation costs they incur or personal injury, disease, disability, or other infirmities related to the alleged presence of hazardous materials at an apartment community. In addition to potential environmental liabilities or costs associated with our current apartment communities, we may also be responsible for such liabilities or costs associated with communities we acquire or manage in the future, or apartment communities we no longer own or operate.
Laws benefiting disabled persons may result in our incurrence of unanticipated expenses.
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, or ADA, all places intended to be used by the public are required to meet certain federal requirements related to access and use by disabled persons. The Fair Housing Amendments Act of 1988, or FHAA, requires apartment communities first occupied after March 13, 1991, to comply with design and construction
8
requirements for disabled access. For those apartment communities receiving federal funds, the Rehabilitation ActAimco’s success in its five areas of 1973 alsostrategic focus has requirements regarding disabled access. These and other federal, state, and local laws may require structural modifications to our apartment communities or changes in policy/practice, or affect renovations of the communities. Noncompliance with these laws could result in the imposition of fines or an award of damages to private litigants and also could result in an order to correct any non-complying feature, which could result in substantial capital expenditures. Although we believe that our apartment communities are substantially in compliance with present requirements, we may incur unanticipated expenses to comply with the ADA, the FHAA, and the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 in connection with the ongoing operation or redevelopment of our apartment communities.
Moisture infiltration and resulting mold remediation may be costly.
Although we are proactively engaged in managing moisture intrusion and preventing the presence of mold at our apartment communities, it is not unusual for periodic moisture intrusion to cause mold in isolated locations within an apartment community. We have implemented policies, procedures, and training, and include a detailed moisture intrusion and mold assessment during acquisition due diligence. We believe these measures will manage mold exposure at our apartment communities and will minimize the effects that mold may have on our residents. To date, we have not incurred any material costs or liabilities relating to claims of mold exposure or to abate mold conditions. We have only limited insurance coverage for property damage claims arising from the presence of mold and for personal injury claims related to mold exposure.
Although we are insured for certain risks, the cost of insurance, increased claims activity, or losses resulting from casualty events may affect our operating results and financial condition.
We are insured for a portion of our consolidated apartment communities’ exposure to casualty losses resulting from fire, earthquake, hurricane, tornado, flood, and other perils, which insurance is subject to deductibles and self-insurance retention. We recognize casualty losses or gains based on the net book value of the affected apartment community and the amount of any related insurance proceeds. In many instances, the actual cost to repair or replace the apartment community may exceed its net book value and any insurance proceeds. We recognize the uninsured portion of losses as casualty losses in the periods in which they are incurred. In addition, we are self-insured for a portion of our exposure to third-party claims related to our employee health insurance plans, workers’ compensation coverage, and general liability exposure. With respect to our exposure to claims of third parties, we establish reserves at levels that reflect our known and estimated losses. The ultimate cost of losses and the impact of unforeseen events may vary materially from recorded reserves, and variances may adversely affect our operating results and financial condition. We purchase insurance to reduce our exposure to losses and limit our financial losses on large individual risks. The availability and cost of insurance are determined by market conditions outside our control. No assurance can be made that we will be able to obtain and maintain insurance at the same levels and on the same terms as we do today. If we are not able to obtain or maintain insurance in amounts we consider appropriate for our business, or if the cost of obtaining such insurance increases materially, we may have to retain a larger portion of the potential loss associated with our exposures to risks.
Natural disasters and severe weather may affect our operating results and financial condition.
Natural disasters such as earthquakes and severe weather such as hurricanes may result in significant damage to our apartment communities. The extent of our casualty losses and loss in operating income in connection with such events is a function of the severity of the event and the total amount of exposure in the affected area. When we have geographic concentration of exposures, a single catastrophe (such as an earthquake) or destructive weather event (such as a hurricane) affecting a region may have a significant adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. We cannot accurately predict natural disasters or severe weather, or the number and type of such events that will affect us. As a result, our operating and financial results may vary significantly from one period to the next. Although we anticipate and plan for losses, there can be no assurance that our financial results will not be adversely affected by our exposure to losses arising from natural disasters or severe weather in the future that exceed our previous experience and assumptions.
We depend on our senior management.
Our success depends upon the retention of our senior management, including Terry Considine, our chief executive officer. We have a succession planning and talent development process that is designed to identify potential replacements and develop our team members to provide depth in the organization and a bench of talent on which to draw. However, there are no assurances that we would be able to find qualified replacements for the individuals who make up our senior management if their services were no longer available. The loss of services of one or more members of our senior management team could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We do not currently maintain key-man life insurance for any of our employees.

Our business and operations would suffer in the event of significant disruptions or cyber attacks of our information technology systems or our failure to comply with laws, rules and regulations related to privacy and data protection.
Information technology, communication networks, and related systems are essential to the operation of our business. We use these systems to manage our resident and vendor relationships, internal communications, accounting and record-keeping systems, and many other key aspects of our business. Our operations rely on the secure processing, storage, and transmission of confidential and other information in our computer systems and networks, which also depend on the strength of our procedures and the effectiveness of our internal controls. Information security risks have generally increased in recent years due to the rise in new technologies and the increased sophistication and activities of perpetrators of cyber attacks.
Despite system redundancy, risk transfer, insurance, indemnification, the implementation of security measures, required employee awareness training, and the existence of a disaster recovery plan for our internal information technology systems, our systems and systems maintained by third party vendors with which we do business are vulnerable to damage from any number of sources. We face risks associated with energy blackouts, natural disasters, terrorism, war, telecommunication failures, and cyber attacks and intrusions, such as computer viruses, malware, attachments to e-mails, intrusion, and unauthorized access, including from persons inside our organization or from persons outside our organization with access to our systems. We may also incur additional costs to remedy damages caused by such disruptions. Although we make efforts to maintain the security and integrity of our systems and have implemented various measures to manage the risk of a security breach or disruption, there can be no assurance that our security efforts and measures will be effective or that attempted security breaches or disruptions would not be successful or damaging. Any compromise of our security could also result in a violation of applicable privacy and other laws, significant legal and financial exposure, damage to our reputation, loss or misuse of the information (which may be confidential, proprietary, and/or commercially sensitive in nature), and a loss of confidence in our security measures, which could harm our business.
We also are subject to laws, rules, and regulations in the United States, such as the California Consumer Protection Act, or CCPA (which will become effective on January 1, 2020), relating to the collection, use, and security of employee and other data. Evolving compliance and operational requirements under the CCPA and the privacy laws of other jurisdictions in which we operate impose significant costs that are likely to increase over time. Our failure to comply with laws, rules, and regulations related to privacy and data protection could harm our business or reputation.
Risks Related to Our Indebtedness and Financing
Our existing and future debt financing could result in foreclosure of our apartment communities, prevent us from making distributions on our equity, or otherwise adversely affect our liquidity.
We are subject to the risk that our cash flow from operations will be insufficient to make required payments of principal and interest, and the risk that existing indebtedness may not be refinanced or that the terms of any refinancing will not be as favorable as the terms of existing indebtedness. If we fail to make required payments of principal and interest on our non-recourse debt, our lenders could foreclose on the apartment communities and other collateral securing such debt, which would result in the loss to us of income and asset value. As of December 31, 2019, the majority of our apartment communities were encumbered by debt. Our organizational documents do not limit the amount of debt that we may incur, and we have significant amounts of debt outstanding. Payments of principal and interest may leave us with insufficient cash resources to operate our communities or pay distributions required to be paid in order to maintain Aimco’s qualification as a REIT.
Disruptions in the financial markets could affect our ability to obtain financing and the cost of available financing and could adversely affect our liquidity.
Our ability to obtain financing and the cost of such financing depends on the overall condition of the United States credit markets. During periods of economic uncertainty the United States credit markets may experience significant liquidity disruptions, which may cause the spreads on debt financings to widen considerably and make obtaining financing, both non-recourse property debt and corporate borrowings such as those under our revolving credit agreement, more difficult. In particular, apartment borrowers have benefited from the historic willingness of Federal National Mortgage Association, or Fannie Mae, and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, or Freddie Mac, to make substantial amounts of loans secured by multi-family properties, even in times of economic distress. These two lenders are federally chartered and subject to federal regulation, which is subject to change, making uncertain their prospects and ability to provide liquidity in a future downturn.
If our ability to obtain financing is adversely affected, we may be unable to satisfy scheduled maturities on existing financing through other sources of liquidity, which could result in lender foreclosure on the apartment communities securing such debt and loss of income and asset value, both of which would adversely affect our liquidity.
10
Increases in interest rates would increase our interest expense and reduce our profitability.
As of December 31, 2019, we had approximately $445.1 million of variable-rate indebtedness outstanding. We estimate that an increase or decrease in 30-day LIBOR of 100 basis points with constant credit risk spreads would increase or reduce interest expense by approximately $4.5 million on an annual basis.
As of December 31, 2019, we had approximately $177.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, a portion of which bear interest at variable rates indexed to LIBOR-based rates, which may partially mitigate the effect of an increase in variable rates on our variable-rate indebtedness discussed above.
The potential phasing out of LIBOR after 2021 may affect our financial results.
In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, announced it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. In 2018, the Alternative Reference Rates Committee identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate, or SOFR, as the alternative to LIBOR. Whether or not SOFR attains market traction as a LIBOR replacement remains a question, and the future of LIBOR at this time is uncertain. At this time, it is not possible to predict the effect of any such changes, any establishment of alternative reference rates or any other reforms to LIBOR that may be enacted in the United Kingdom or elsewhere. Due to the broad use of LIBOR as a reference rate, all financial market participants, including us, are impacted by the risks associated with this transition. Any of these proposals or consequences could have a material adverse effect on our financing costs, and as a result, our financial condition, operating results, and cash flows.
Covenant restrictions may limit our ability to make payments to our investors.
Some of our debt and other securities contain covenants that restrict our ability to make distributions or other payments to our investors unless certain financial tests or other criteria are satisfied. Our revolving credit agreement provides, among other things, that we may not make distributions to our investors during any four consecutive fiscal quarters in an aggregate amount greater than 95% of our Nareit FFO for such period, subject to certain non-cash adjustments, or such amount as may be necessary to maintain Aimco’s REIT status. Our outstanding preferred units prohibit the payment of dividends on our Common Stock or common partnership units if we fail to pay the dividends to which the holders of the preferred units are entitled.
Risks Related to Aimco’s Corporate Structure
The Aimco Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries may be prohibited from making distributions and other payments.
All of Aimco’s apartment communities are owned, and all of Aimco’s operations are conducted, by the Aimco Operating Partnership. Further, many of the Aimco Operating Partnership’s apartment communities are owned by subsidiaries of the Aimco Operating Partnership. As a result, Aimco depends on distributions and other payments from the Aimco Operating Partnership, and the Aimco Operating Partnership depends on distributions and payments from its subsidiaries in order to satisfy our financial obligations and make payments to our investors. The ability of the Aimco Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries to make such distributions and other payments depends on their earnings and cash flows and may be subject to statutory or contractual limitations. As an equity investor in the Aimco Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries, our right to receive assets upon their liquidation or reorganization will be effectively subordinated to the claims of their creditors. To the extent that we are recognized as a creditor of such subsidiaries, our claims may still be subordinate to any security interest in or other lien on their assets and to any of their debt or other obligations that are senior to our claims.
Limits on ownership of shares specified in Aimco’s charter may result in the loss of economic and voting rights by purchasers that violate those limits.
Aimco’s charter limits ownership of Common Stock by any single stockholder (applying certain “beneficial ownership” rules under the federal securities laws) to 8.7% (or up to 12.0% upon a waiver from Aimco’s Board of Directors) of outstanding shares of Common Stock, or 15% in the case of certain pension trusts, registered investment companies and Mr. Considine (or up to 20.0% for such pension trusts or registered investment companies upon a waiver from Aimco’s Board of Directors). Aimco’s charter also limits ownership of Aimco’s Common Stock and preferred stock by any single stockholder to 8.7% of the value of the outstanding Common Stock and preferred stock, or 15% in the case of certain pension trusts, registered investment companies, and Mr. Considine. The charter also prohibits anyone from buying shares of Aimco’s capital stock if the purchase would result in Aimco losing its REIT status. This could happen if a transaction results in fewer than 100 persons owning all of Aimco’s shares of capital stock or results in five or fewer persons (applying certain attribution rules of the Code) owning 50% or more of the value of all of Aimco’s shares of capital stock. If anyone acquires shares in excess of the ownership limit or in violation of the ownership requirements of the Code for REITs:

Aimco may purchase the shares of capital stock held in trust at a price equal to the lesser of the price paid by the transferee of the shares or the then current market price. If the trust transfers any of the shares of capital stock, the affected person will receive the lesser of the price paid for the shares or the then current market price. An individual who acquires shares of capital stock that violate the above rules bears the risk that the individual:

Aimco’s charter may limit the ability of a third-party to acquire control of Aimco.
The 8.7% and other ownership limits discussed above may have the effect of delaying or precluding acquisition by a third-party of control of Aimco without the consent of Aimco’s Board of Directors. Aimco’s charter authorizes its Board of Directors to issue up to 510,587,500 shares of capital stock. As of December 31, 2019, 500,787,260 shares were classified as Common Stock, of which 148,885,197 were outstanding, and 9,800,240 shares were classified as preferred stock of which no shares were outstanding. Under Aimco’s charter, its Board of Directors has the authority to classify and reclassify any of Aimco’s unissued shares of capital stock into shares of capital stock with such preferences, conversion or other rights, voting power restrictions, limitations as to dividends, qualifications, or terms or conditions of redemptions as the Board of Directors may determine. The authorization and issuance of a new class of capital stock could have the effect of delaying or preventing someone from taking control of Aimco, where there is a difference of opinion between the Aimco Board of Directors and others as to what is in Aimco’s stockholders’ best interests.
The Maryland General Corporation Law may limit the ability of a third-party to acquire control of Aimco.
As a Maryland corporation, Aimco is subject to various Maryland laws that may have the effect of discouraging offers to acquire Aimco and increasing the difficulty of consummating any such offers, where there is a difference of opinion between the Aimco Board of Directors and others as to what is in Aimco’s stockholders’ best interests. The Maryland General Corporation Law, specifically the Maryland Business Combination Act, restricts mergers and other business combination transactions between Aimco and any person who acquires, directly or indirectly, beneficial ownership of shares of Aimco’s stock representing 10% or more of the voting power without Aimco’s Board of Directors’ prior approval. Any such business combination transaction could not be completed until five years after the person acquired such voting power, and generally only with the approval of stockholders representing 80% of all votes entitled to be cast and 66-2/3% of the votes entitled to be cast, excluding the interested stockholder, or upon payment of a fair price. The Maryland General Corporation Law, specifically the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act, provides generally that a person who acquires shares of Aimco’s capital stock representing 10% or more of the voting power in electing directors will have no voting rights unless approved by a vote of two-thirds of the shares eligible to vote. Additionally, the Maryland General Corporation Law provides, among other things, that the Board of Directors has broad discretion in adopting stockholders’ rights plans and has the sole power to fix the record date, time, and place for special meetings of the stockholders. To date, Aimco has not adopted a stockholders’ rights plan. In addition, the Maryland General Corporation Law provides that a corporation that:

Risks Related to Tax Laws and Regulations
Aimco may fail to qualify as a REIT.
If Aimco fails to qualify as a REIT, Aimco will not be allowed a deduction for dividends paid to its stockholders in computing its taxable income, and will be subject to United States federal income tax at regular corporate rates. This would substantially reduce our funds available for distribution to our investors. Unless entitled to relief under certain provisions of the Code, Aimco also would be disqualified from taxation as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which it ceased to qualify as a REIT. In addition, Aimco’s failure to qualify as a REIT would place us in default under our revolving credit agreement.
We believe that Aimco operates, and has since its taxable year ended December 31, 1994, operated, in a manner that enables it to meet the requirements for qualification as a REIT for United States federal income tax purposes. However, qualification as a REIT involves the application of highly technical and complex Code provisions for which only limited judicial and administrative authorities exist. Moreover, even a technical or inadvertent mistake could jeopardize our REIT status. Aimco’s continued qualification as a REIT will depend on its satisfaction of certain asset, income, investment, organizational, distribution, stockholder ownership, and other requirements on a continuing basis. Aimco’s ability to satisfy the asset tests depends upon our analysis of the fair market values of our assets, some of which are not susceptible to a precise determination, and for which we do not obtain independent appraisals. Aimco’s compliance with the REIT annual income and quarterly asset requirements also depends upon our ability to manage successfully the composition of our income and assets on an ongoing basis. Moreover, the proper classification of an instrument as debt or equity for United States federal income tax purposes may be uncertain in some circumstances, which could affect the application of the REIT qualification requirements. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, will not contend that our interests in subsidiaries or other issuers constitutes a violation of the REIT requirements. Moreover, future economic, market, legal, tax, or other considerations may cause Aimco to fail to qualify as a REIT, or Aimco’s Board of Directors may determine to revoke its REIT status.
REIT distribution requirements limit our available cash.
As a REIT, Aimco is subject to annual distribution requirements. The Aimco Operating Partnership pays distributions intended to enable Aimco to satisfy its distribution requirements. This limits the amount of cash available for other business purposes, including amounts to fund our growth. Aimco generally must distribute annually at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and excluding any net capital gain, in order for its distributed earnings not to be subject to United States federal corporate income tax. We intend to make distributions to Aimco’s stockholders to comply with the requirements of the Code. However, differences in timing between the recognition of taxable income and the actual receipt of cash could require us to sell apartment communities or borrow funds on a short-term orproduced superior long-term basis to meet the 90% distribution requirement of the Code.
Aimco may be subject to federal and state income taxes, in certain circumstances.
Even if Aimco qualifies as a REIT, Aimco may be subject to United States federal income and excise taxes in various situations, such as on its undistributed income. Aimco could also be required to pay a 100% tax on any net income on non-arm’s length transactions between Aimco and a taxable REIT subsidiary and on any net income from sales of apartment communities that were held for sale primarily in the ordinary course. State and local tax laws may not conform to the United States federal income tax treatment, and Aimco may be subject to state or local taxation in various state or local jurisdictions in which Aimco transacts business. Any taxes imposed on Aimco would reduce our operating cash flow and net income and could negatively impact our ability to pay dividends and distributions.
Dividends payable by REITs do not qualify for the reduced tax rates available for some dividends.
REITs are entitled to a United States federal tax deduction for dividends paid to their stockholders. As compared to other taxable corporations, this ability to reduce or eliminate the REIT’s taxable income by paying dividends to stockholders is a principal benefit of maintaining REIT status, generally resulting in a lower combined tax liability of the REIT and its
13
stockholders as compared to that of the combined tax liability of other taxable corporations and their stockholders. Notwithstanding this combined benefit, dividends payable by REITs may result in marginally higher taxes to the stockholder.
C-corporations are generally required to pay United States federal income tax on earnings. After tax earnings are then available for stockholder dividends. The maximum United States federal tax rate applicable to income from “qualified dividends” payable to United States stockholders that are individuals, trusts, and estates is currently 20%, plus the 3.8% investment tax surcharge. While dividends payable by REITs are generally not eligible for the qualified dividend reduced rates, stockholders that are individuals, trusts, or estates may deduct 20% of the aggregate amount of ordinary dividends from REITs. This deduction is available for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017, and before January 1, 2026, and will generally cause the maximum tax rate for ordinary dividends from REITs to be 29.6%, plus the 3.8% investment tax surcharge. The more favorable tax rates applicable to regular corporate qualified dividends could cause investors who are individuals, trusts, and estates to perceive investments in REITs to be relatively less attractive than investments in the shares of non-REIT corporates that pay dividends, which could adversely affect the value of the shares of REITs, including Aimco Common Stock.
Complying with the REIT requirements may cause Aimco to forgo otherwise attractive business opportunities.
To qualify as a REIT for United States federal income tax purposes, Aimco must continually satisfy tests concerning, among other things, the sources of its income, the nature and diversification of its assets, the amounts distributed to Aimco stockholders, and the ownership of Aimco stock. As a result of these tests, Aimco may be required to make distributions to stockholders at disadvantageous times or when Aimco does not have funds readily available for distribution, forgo otherwise attractive investment opportunities, liquidate assets in adverse market conditions, or contribute assets to a TRS that is subject to regular corporate federal income tax.
Changes to United States federal income tax laws could materially and adversely affect Aimco and Aimco’s stockholders.
The present United States federal income tax treatment of REITs may be modified, possibly with retroactive effect, by legislative, judicial, or administrative action at any time, which could affect the United States federal income tax treatment of an investment in Aimco Common Stock. The United States federal income tax rules dealing with REITs constantly are under review by persons involved in the legislative process, the IRS, and the United States Treasury Department, which results in statutory changes as well as frequent revisions to regulations and interpretations. We cannot predict how changes in the tax laws might affect Aimco or Aimco’s stockholders. Revisions in federal tax laws and interpretations thereof could significantly and negatively affect Aimco’s ability to qualify as a REIT and the tax considerations relevant to an investment in Aimco Common Stock, or could cause Aimco to change its investments and commitments.
Government housing regulations may limit the opportunities at some of our apartment communities and failure to comply with resident qualification requirements may result in financial penalties and/or loss of benefits, such as rental revenues paid by government agencies. Additionally, the government may cease to operate or reduce funding for government housing programs which would result in a loss of benefits from those programs.
We own equity interests in entities that own certain apartment communities that benefit from governmental programs intended to provide housing to people with low or moderate incomes. These programs, which are usually administered by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development, or HUD, or state housing finance agencies, typically provide one or more of the following: mortgage insurance; favorable financing terms; tax-exempt interest; historic or low-income housing tax credits; or rental assistance payments to the apartment community owners. As a condition of the receipt of assistance under these programs, the apartment communities must comply with various requirements, which typically limit rents to pre-approved amounts and limit our choice of residents to those with incomes at or below certain levels. Failure to comply with these requirements may result in financial penalties or loss of benefits. We are usually required to obtain the approval of HUD in order to acquire or dispose of a significant interest in or manage a HUD-assisted apartment community. We may not always receive such approval.

Our consolidated apartment communities contained, on average, 272 apartment homes, with the largest community containing 2,113 apartment homes. These apartment communities offer residents a range of amenities, including resort pools with cabanas, grills, clubhouses, spas, fitness centers, package lockers, dog parks, and large open spaces. Many of the apartment homes offer features such as granite countertops, wood flooring, stainless steel appliances, fireplaces, spacious closets, washer and dryer connections, balconies, and patios.
The majority of our consolidated apartment communities are encumbered by property debt. As of December 31, 2019, apartment communities in our portfolio were encumbered by, in aggregate, $4.3 billion of property debt with a weighted-average interest rate of 3.89% and a weighted-average maturity of 7.5 years. The apartment communities collateralizing this non-recourse property debt have an estimated aggregate fair value of $10.9 billion. As of December 31, 2019, we held unencumbered apartment communities with an estimated fair value of approximately $2.4 billion.
On July 2, 2019, we acquired a 95% interest in 1001 Brickell Bay Drive, a 1.8-acre waterfront parcel in Miami, Florida, currently improved with an office building. 1001 Brickell Bay Drive is excluded from our apartment communities table above.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
As further discussed in Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements in Item 8, we are engaged in discussions with regulatory agencies regarding environmental matters at two apartment communities we, or other entities, previously owned. Although the outcome of these matters is uncertain, we do not expect the resolution to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS, AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
Aimco
Aimco’s Common Stock has been listed and traded on the NYSE under the symbol “AIV” since July 22, 1994.
On February 21, 2020, there were 148,930,402 shares of Common Stock outstanding, held by 815 stockholders of record. The number of holders does not include individuals or entities who beneficially own shares but whose shares are held of record by a broker or clearing agency, but does include each such broker or clearing agency as one record holder.
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
From time to time, Aimco may issue shares of Common Stock in exchange for OP Units, defined under The Aimco Operating Partnership heading below. Such shares are issued based on an exchange ratio of one share for each common OP Unit. Please refer to Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements in Item 8 for further discussion of such exchanges. Aimco may also issue shares of Common Stock in exchange for limited partnership interests in consolidated real estate partnerships. During the three months ended December 31, 2019, Aimco did not issue any shares of Common Stock in exchange for OP Units or limited partnership interests in consolidated real estate partnerships.
Repurchases of Equity Securities
There were no repurchases by Aimco of its common equity securities during the three months ended December 31, 2019. Aimco’s Board of Directors has, from time to time, authorized Aimco to repurchase shares of its outstanding Common Stock. As of December 31, 2019, Aimco was authorized to repurchase approximately 10.6 million shares. This authorization has no expiration date. These repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions.
The Aimco Operating Partnership
Interests in the Aimco Operating Partnership that are held by limited partners other than Aimco are referred to as OP Units. OP Units include common partnership units, which we refer to as common OP Units, as well as partnership preferred units, or preferred OP Units. There is no public market for the Aimco Operating Partnership’s common partnership units, including common OP Units, and we have no intention of listing the common partnership units on any securities exchange. In addition, the Aimco Operating Partnership’s Partnership Agreement restricts the transferability of common partnership units, including common OP Units.
On February 21, 2020, there were 159,442,294 common partnership units and equivalents outstanding (148,930,402 of which were held by Aimco) that were held by 2,394 unitholders of record.
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
The Aimco Operating Partnership did not issue any unregistered OP units during the three months ended December 31, 2019.
Repurchases of Equity Securities
The Aimco Operating Partnership’s Partnership Agreement generally provides that after holding common OP Units for one year, limited partners other than Aimco have the right to redeem their common OP Units for cash or, at our election, shares of Aimco Common Stock on a one-for-one basis (subject to customary antidilution adjustments). No common OP Units or preferred OP Units held by Limited Partners were redeemed for shares of Aimco Common Stock during the three months ended December 31, 2019.

Dividend and Distribution Payments
As a REIT, Aimco is required to distribute annually to holders of its Common Stock at least 90% of its “real estate investment trust taxable income,” which, as defined by the Code and United States Department of Treasury regulations, is generally equivalent to net taxable ordinary income. Aimco’s Board of Directors determines and declares its dividends. In making a dividend determination, Aimco’s Board of Directors considers a variety of factors, including: REIT distribution requirements; current market conditions; liquidity needs; and other uses of cash, such as for deleveraging and accretive investment activities. Aimco’s Board of Directors targets a dividend payout ratio between 65% and 70% of Adjusted Funds From Operations.
Stockholders receiving such dividend and any future dividend payable in cash and shares of Aimco Common Stock will be required to include the full amount of such dividends as ordinary income to the extent of Aimco’s current and accumulated earnings and profits, as determined for United States federal income tax purposes for the year of such dividends, and may be required to pay income taxes with respect to such dividends in excess of the cash dividends received. With respect to certain non-United States stockholders, Aimco may be required to withhold United States tax with respect to such dividends, including in respect of all or a portion of such dividend that is payable in Common Stock.
The Board of Directors of the Aimco Operating Partnership’s general partner determines and declares distributions on OP Units. Aimco, through wholly-owned subsidiaries, is the general and special limited partner of and, as of December 31, 2019, owned a 94.0% ownership interest in the common partnership units of the Aimco Operating Partnership. The Aimco Operating Partnership holds all of Aimco’s assets and manages the daily operations of Aimco’s business. The distributions paid by the Aimco Operating Partnership to Aimco are used by Aimco to fund the dividends paid to its stockholders. Accordingly, the per share dividends Aimco pays to its stockholders generally equal the per unit distributions paid by the Aimco Operating Partnership to holders of its common partnership units.
Our revolving credit agreement includes customary covenants, including a restriction on dividends and other restricted payments, but permits dividends and distributions during any four consecutive fiscal quarters in an aggregate amount of up to 95% of Aimco’s Funds From Operations for such period, subject to certain non-cash adjustments, or such amount as may be necessary to maintain Aimco’s REIT status.

The following graph compares cumulative total returns for Aimco’s Common Stock, the NAREIT Equity Apartments Index (the “NAREIT Apartment Index”), and the MSCI US REIT Index the Nareit Equity Apartment Index, and the Standard & Poor’s 500 Total Return Index, or S&P 500 Index. The MSCI US REIT Index is published by Morgan Stanley Capital International Inc., a provider of equity indices. The Nareit Equity Apartment Index is published by The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or Nareit, a representative of real estate investment trusts and publicly traded real estate companies with interests in United States real estate and capital markets. The MSCI US REIT Index reflects total shareholder return for a broad range of REITs and the Nareit Equity Apartment Index provides a more direct multifamily peer comparison of total shareholder return. The indices are weighted for all companies that fit the definitional criteria of the particular index and are calculated to exclude companies as they are acquired and to add companies to the index calculation as they become publicly traded companies. All companies that fit the definitional criteria and existed at the point in time presented are included in the index calculations.(the “REIT Index”). The graph assumes the investment of $100 in Aimco’s Common Stock and in each index on December 31, 2014,2015, and that all dividends paid have been reinvested.

Aimco and AIR outperformed the NAREIT Apartment Index and the REIT Index over the five-year period ended December 31, 2020, as shown in the following graph in which total stockholder return is presented as an annualized compounded annual growth rate. The Separation created significant value for stockholders. Including the performance of AIR shares distributed to Aimco stockholders, the combined investment outperformed the MSCI US REIT Index by 800 bps and the NAREIT Apartment Index by 1,700 bps on a cumulative basis over the five-year period ended December 31, 2020.
Summary of Executive Compensation Program and Governance Practices
Below we summarize certain executive compensation program and governance practices, including practices we have implemented to drive performance and practices we avoid because we believe they would not serve our stockholders’ long-term interests.
What Aimco Does |
Pays for performance. A significant portion of executive pay is not guaranteed, but rather is at risk and tied to key financial and value creation metrics that are set in advance and disclosed to stockholders. All of the incentive compensation (both STI and LTI) for Mr. Considine is subject to the achievement of various performance objectives. For the other NEOs, all STI compensation, and two-thirds of target LTI compensation (other than with respect to the CAO, who was promoted to an executive officer position in December 2020), is subject to the achievement of various performance objectives. |
Balances short-term and long-term incentives. The incentive programs provide a balance of annual and longer-term incentives, with LTI compensation vesting over multiple years comprising a substantial percentage of target total compensation. |
Uses multiple performance metrics. These mitigate the risk of the undue influence of a single metric by utilizing multiple performance measures. Such measures differ for STI and LTI. |
Caps award payouts. Amounts or shares that can be earned under the STI plan and LTI plan are capped. |
Uses market-based approach for determining NEO target pay. Target total compensation for NEOs is set near the median for peer comparators. The Committee reviews the peer comparator group annually. |
Maintains stock ownership guidelines and holding periods after vesting until ownership guidelines are met. Aimco has the following minimum stock ownership requirements: CEO – five times base salary; and other executive officers – three times base salary. |
Includes double-trigger change in control provisions. Equity awards include “double trigger” provisions requiring both a change in control and a subsequent termination of employment (other than for cause) for accelerated vesting to occur. |
Uses an independent compensation consulting firm. The Committee engages an independent compensation consulting firm that specializes in the real estate industry. |
Maintains a claw back policy. In the event of a financial restatement resulting from misconduct by an executive, the claw back policy allows the Company to recoup incentive compensation paid to the executive based on the misstated financial information. The policy covers all forms of bonus, incentive and equity compensation. |
Conducts a risk assessment. The Committee annually conducts a compensation risk assessment to determine whether the compensation policies and practices, or components thereof, create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. |
Acts through an independent Compensation Committee. The Committee consists entirely of independent directors. |
What Aimco Does Not Do |
Guarantee salary increases, bonuses or equity grants. The Company does not guarantee annual salary increases or bonuses. The Company makes no guaranteed commitments to grant equity-based awards. |
Provide excise tax gross-up payments. The Company will not enter into contractual arrangements that include excise tax gross-up payments. |
Reprice options. The Company has never repriced the per-share exercise price of any outstanding stock options. Repricing of stock options is not permitted under the Company’s Second Amended and Restated 2015 Stock Award and Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”) without first obtaining approval from the stockholders of the Company. |
Pay dividends or dividend equivalents on unearned performance shares. Performance share award agreements provide for the payment of dividends only if and after the shares are earned. Dividends, if any, accrue during the performance period and are paid once shares are earned. |
Provide more than minimal personal benefits. The Company does not provide executives with more than minimal perquisites, such as reserved parking spaces. |
What We Pay and Why: Components of Executive Compensation
Total compensation for Aimco’s NEOs is comprised of the following components:
Compensation Component | Form | Purpose | ||
Base Salary | Cash | Provide a salary that is competitive with market. | ||
STI | Cash | Reward executive for achieving short-term business objectives. | ||
LTI | Restricted stock, Long-Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) units, and/or stock options, subject to performance and/or time vesting, typically over four years. | Align executive’s compensation with stockholder objectives, and provide an incentive to take a longer-term view of Aimco’s performance. |
LTI compensation directly ties the interests of executives to the interests of our stockholders, and comprises a substantial proportion of compensation for Aimco NEOs, as follows:
CEO1 2020 Target Pay Mix | Other NEOs 2020 Target Pay Mix |
1 | Represents 2020 target compensation for Mr. Considine, who held the position of CEO until the Separation on December 15, 2020. |
CEO Pay Overview
The Committee determines the compensation for the CEO. In setting Mr. Considine’s target total compensation for 2020, the Committee considered, among other things, the peer group compensation data as discussed below and Mr. Considine’s expertise and experience. The Committee devised a compensation plan for Mr. Considine that resulted in approximately 10% base salary, 27% based on Aimco’s performance against its 2020 corporate goals, and 63% based on relative TSR, making more of Mr. Considine’s target compensation tied to TSR than is the case for any of his peers. Mr. Considine’s target compensation mix is illustrated as follows:
How the Committee determines the amount of target total compensation for executive officers
In addition to reviewing the performance of, and determining the compensation for, the CEO, the Committee also reviews the decisions made by the CEO as to the compensation of Aimco’s other executive officers. Base salary, target STI, and target LTI are generally set near the median base salary, target STI, and target LTI for peer comparators.
How peer comparators are identified
The Committee considered enterprise Gross Asset Value (“GAV”), as reported by Green Street Advisors, to be an imprecise, but reasonable representation of the complexity of a real estate business and of the responsibilities of its leaders. In addition to GAV, the Committee also reviewed other factors, including gross revenues, number of properties, and number of employees, to determine if these factors provided any additional insight into the work and requirements of its leaders. Based on this analysis, Aimco included as “peers” for 2020 compensation the following 20 real estate companies:
Peer Group | |
American Campus Communities, Inc. | JBG Smith Properties |
American Homes 4 Rent | Kilroy Realty Corp. |
Brixmor Property Group, Inc. | Kimco Realty |
Camden Property Trust | Liberty Property Trust |
Douglas Emmett, Inc. | Macerich Company |
Duke Realty Corp. | Omega Healthcare Investors |
Equity LifeStyle Properties | Park Hotels & Resorts, Inc. |
Extra Space Storage, Inc. | Regency Centers Corp. |
Federal Realty Investment Trust | Sun Communities, Inc. |
Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. | Taubman Centers, Inc. |
At the time 2020 compensation targets were established, approximately half of these real estate companies had a larger GAV, and approximately half of these real estate companies had a smaller GAV, than did Aimco. Due to changes in GAV for Aimco and its peers during 2019, American Campus Communities, Inc., Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc., JBG Smith Properties, Omega Healthcare Investors, and Park Hotels & Resorts, Inc. were added to the peer group for 2020 in replacement of Alexandria Real Estate Equities, HCP, Inc., Mid-America Apartment Communities, SL Green Realty Corp., and UDR, Inc.
For Mr. Kimmel, whose position as Executive Vice President, Property Operations, does not have a good benchmark outside of the multi-family industry, Aimco used a multi-family peer group for benchmarking his 2020 compensation, consisting of the following six multi-family real estate companies: AvalonBay Communities, Inc., Camden Property Trust, Essex Property Trust, Equity Residential, Mid-America Apartment Communities, Inc., and UDR, Inc.

Risk analysis of Aimco’s compensation programs
The Committee considers risk-related matters when making decisions with respect to executive compensation and has determined that neither Aimco’s executive compensation program nor any of its non-executive compensation programs create risk-taking incentives that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the organization. Aimco’s compensation programs align management incentives with the long-term interests of the Company.
Aimco’s Compensation Program Discourages Excessive Risk-Taking |
Limits on STI. The compensation of executive officers and other teammates is not overly weighted toward STI. Moreover, STI is capped. |
Use of LTI. LTI is included in target total compensation and typically vests over a period of four years. The vesting period encourages officers to focus on sustaining Aimco’s long-term performance. Executive officers with more responsibility for strategic and operating decisions have a greater percentage of their target total compensation allocated to LTI. LTI is capped at two times target, or 200%, for the CEO, and 1.67 times target, or 167%, for the other NEOs, excluding the CAO, who was promoted to an executive officer position in December 2020. |
Stock ownership guidelines and required holding periods after vesting. Aimco’s stock ownership guidelines require all executive officers to hold a specified amount of Aimco equity. Any executive officer who has not yet satisfied the stock ownership requirements for his or her position must retain LTI after its vesting until stock ownership requirements are met. These policies ensure each executive officer has a substantial amount of personal wealth tied to long-term holdings in Aimco stock. |
Shared performance metrics across the organization. A portion of 2020 STI for the NEOs based upon Aimco’s performance against its publicly communicated corporate goals, which are reviewed and approved by the Committee. One hundred percent of Mr. Considine’s STI, and between 50% and 75% of the STI for the other NEOs, is based upon Aimco’s performance against its corporate goals. In addition, having shared performance metrics across the organization reinforces Aimco’s focus on a collegial and collaborative team environment. |
LTI based on TSR. One hundred percent of the CEO’s LTI, and a substantial proportion of the LTI for the other NEOs, is based on relative TSR. |
Multiple performance metrics.Aimco had six corporate goals for 2020. In addition, through Aimco’s performance management program, Managing Aimco Performance, or MAP, which sets and monitors performance objectives for every team member, each team member had several different individual performance goals that are set at the beginning of the year and approved by management. Each of the NEOs had an average of six individual goals for 2020. Having multiple performance metrics inherently reduces excessive or unnecessary risk-taking, as incentive compensation is spread among a number of metrics rather than concentrated in a few. |
Total Compensation for 2020
For 2020, total compensation is the sum of base compensation earned in 2020, STI earned in 2020, and LTI awards granted in 2020.
Base Compensation for 2020
For 2020, Mr. Considine’s base compensation was $700,000, unchanged from the previous three years, and well below the median for CEOs of his experience, expertise, and tenure in Aimco’s peer group. For 2020, base compensation for all other NEOs was set between $362,440 and $450,000, near the median base compensation paid by peer comparators for similar positions.
Short-Term Incentive Compensation for 2020
The Committee determined Mr. Considine’s STI by the extent to which Aimco met six designated corporate goals, which are described below and are referred to as Aimco’s Key Performance Indicators, or KPIs.
For the other NEOs, calculation of STI was determined by two components: Aimco’s performance against the KPI; and each officer’s achievement of his or her individual MAP goals. For example, if an executive’s target STI was $400,000 and weighted 75% on KPIs, then 75% of that amount, or $300,000, varied based on KPI results and 25% of that amount, or $100,000, varied based on MAP results. As actual KPI results were 100% of target in 2020, then the executive would receive 100% of $300,000 ($300,000) for the KPI portion of his STI, and if MAP results were 100%, such hypothetical executive would receive 100% of the $100,000, for a total STI payment of $400,000.
Aimco’s original 2020 KPIs reflected Aimco’s five areas of strategic focus, as set forth below. Specifically, Aimco’s KPIs consisted of the following six corporate goals that were reviewed with, and approved by, the Committee, each weighted as described.
24
These goals aligned executive officers with the publicly communicated, long-term goals of the Company without encouraging them to take unnecessary and excessive risks. Threshold performance paid out at 50%; target performance paid out at 100%; and maximum performance paid out at 200%.
For some goals, where performance was between threshold and target or between target and maximum, the amount of the payout was interpolated. As described in detail below, the Committee applied discretion in replacing two goals (Same Store NOI and AFFO Per Share) rendered moot by the COVID-19 pandemic with a goal related to the Company’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

For all numeric goals, the target performance metrics were Aimco’s 2020 budget goals. The Company has a rigorous budgeting process that includes an evaluation of prior performance, market data, and peer performance. The Company’s budget strategy is to set ambitious, achievable goals. The Company’s 2020 budget and KPI goals were finalized in January 2020, prior to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, which rendered two of the Company’s KPI goals moot, as described below. As a result, the Committee determined to apply discretion to replace the two goals with a goal related to the Company’s response to the pandemic. As described in detail below, Aimco ensured that its business remained open throughout the pandemic, with teammates across the country providing the Company’s residents safety, a refuge from the virus, good neighbors, respectful treatment for all, and a helping hand to those in need.
An explanation of the objective of each goal and performance levels and payouts for each goal is set forth below.
Same Store NOI Achievement (35% of KPI). The primary objective of this goal was to fulfill the Company’s strategic objective of driving rent growth based on high levels of resident retention, through superior customer selection and satisfaction, coupled with disciplined innovation resulting in sustained cost control, to maximize NOI margins. For 2020, the range for the Same Store NOI achievement goal was as follows: “Threshold” equated to achievement of three percent unfavorable to 2020 budgeted Same Store NOI; “Target” equated to achievement of 2020 budgeted Same Store NOI; and “Maximum” equated to three percent favorable to 2020 budgeted Same Store NOI. The Company’s Same Store NOI for 2020 was more than 3% unfavorable to budgeted Same Store NOI. This resulted in a payout on the Same Store NOI achievement goal of 0.00% for each of the NEOs. The COVID-19 pandemic, which arose after 2020 KPI goals were finalized in January 2020, rendered the Same Store NOI goal essentially moot, given the lockdowns that started in March 2020, increased lease terminations due to economic stress, and onerous regulations across the country and particularly in the City of Los Angeles, which made difficult rent collections and addressing non-payment. The Committee determined to replace the Same Store NOI goal and the AFFO goal, also rendered moot due to the pandemic, with a goal related to the Company’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic. An explanation of the replacement goal, and the Company’s performance against the replacement goal, is set forth below.
Redevelopment Investment and Returns, and Transactions That Improve Aimco’s Portfolio Quality (10% of KPI). The primary objective of this goal was to fulfill Company’s strategic objectives for redevelopment and portfolio management/capital allocation, two of the Company’s five areas of strategic focus described above. Large and/or complex redevelopment and development projects provided increased weighting toward the total goal weighting of 10%, with smaller scale projects provided lower weighting toward the total goal weighting. Achievement for each project was determined with reference to the 2020 budgeted investment and scope for the project, and was based on the extent to which the project work was completed on time and within budget, as well as whether expected returns on investment were achieved. In 2020, the Company completed ground-up construction of Eldridge Townhomes in Elmhurst, IL, and completed the lease-up of the community at rental rates ahead of underwriting. The Company completed ground-up construction of Parc Mosaic in Boulder, CO, and completed the lease-up of the community at rental rates consistent with underwriting. Additionally, the Company completed construction on the redevelopment of 707 Leahy in Redwood City, CA, and on the ground-up development of The Fremont on the Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora, CO. Construction was on track and nearly complete at Prism in Cambridge, MA, and at the North Tower of Flamingo Point in Miami Beach, FL, the major redevelopment continued with a target to complete construction in 2022. The Company acquired for $89.6M Hamilton on the Bay, located in Miami’s Edgewater neighborhood. The community includes a 271-apartment home community located on the waterfront plus an adjacent 0.6-acre development site with four apartment homes. Current zoning allows for the construction of more than 380 additional apartment homes on the combined sites. The Company entered into a joint venture agreement with the Donohoe Companies on Upton Place, a $290M, mixed-use development containing 689 apartment homes and approximately 100,000 square feet of retail space in upper-northwest Washington, D.C. Construction began in the fourth quarter with expected completion in 2024. The Company also made a $50M commitment to IQHQ, a privately held life sciences real estate development company. These outcomes resulted in a payout on this goal of 17.25% for each of the NEOs.
Leverage Ratios and Other Balance Sheet Activities Adding Financial Flexibility (10% of KPI). The primary objective of this goal was to fulfill the Company’s strategic objective of using safe property debt that is low-cost, long-dated, amortizing, and non-recourse, limiting entity and refunding risk while maintaining asset flexibility. Achievement was based on balance sheet activities that added financial flexibility. During the third quarter, the Company sold a 39% interest in a $2.4B portfolio of California properties, enabling a $1B reduction in financial leverage, significantly improving the Company’s strong and flexible balance sheet. Post Separation, at year end, Aimco had $299M of cash on hand, including $9M of restricted cash, and had the capacity to borrow up to $150M under its revolving credit facility. This resulted in a payout on the balance sheet goal of 20.00% for each of the NEOs.
Team Member Engagement Scores (5% of KPI). The primary objective of this goal was to fulfill Aimco’s strategic objective of producing a strong, stable team that is the enduring foundation of Aimco success. Every team member is surveyed via a third-party, confidential survey on his or her annual anniversary of employment. The team member engagement score consists of the average of the responses to the questions that comprise the engagement index, on a scale of 1 to 5, for all teammates who complete the survey during the year. For 2020 compensation, the range for team member engagement scores was as follows: “Threshold” equated to 4.00; “Target” equated to 4.20; and “Maximum” equated to 4.75. For 2020, Aimco’s team member engagement score was a record 4.42, resulting in a payout of 7.00% for each of the NEOs.
27
On-Site Team Engagement, Retention, and Efficiency (5% of KPI). The primary objective of this goal was to maintain a highly engaged, stable workforce at our communities, enhanced by innovations in efficiency, all of which further the Company’s strategic objective of maximizing NOI margins. Achievement was based on on-site team engagement scores, team member retention ratios, and efficiency gains. The Company’s on-site team member engagement score was a record 4.5 out of 5. The Company reduced on-site voluntary turnover by 19% and on-site overall turnover by 10%, each as compared to 2019. This resulted in a payout on the on-site engagement, retention, and efficiency goal of 8.00% for each of the NEOs.
AFFO Per Share (35% of KPI). The primary objective of the Adjusted Funds from Operations (“AFFO”) goal was to increase the Company’s current period financial result. For 2020 compensation, the range for the AFFO goal was set as follows: “Threshold” equated to $2.30 per share; “Target” equated to $2.40 per share; and “Maximum” equated to $2.50 per share. The Company’s AFFO was less than $2.30 per share. This resulted in a payout on the AFFO per share goal of 0.00% for each of the NEOs. The COVID-19 pandemic, which arose after 2020 KPI goals were finalized in January 2020, rendered the AFFO goal moot for the reasons described above in the Same Store NOI description, as NOI is the primary driver of AFFO. The Committee determined to replace the AFFO goal and the Same Store NOI goal, also rendered moot due to the pandemic, with a goal related to the Company’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic. An explanation of the replacement goal, and the Company’s performance against the replacement goal, is set forth below.
Replacement Goal: COVID-19 Response. The Company designed its business with difficult economic times in mind. The Company’s intentional design around its five areas of strategic focus enabled the Company to take immediate action to serve its teammates, its residents, and local communities in response to the crisis.
As the crisis approached, the Company made the health and safety of teammates its priority. The Company: (i) formed a cross-functional task force of approximately a dozen individuals who met daily to re-design how work would be done on site and to keep the team safe while continuing to lease apartments and fulfill service requests; (ii) made it clear, and consistent with company policies providing flexibility, that any teammate who felt unsafe at work because of the virus was free to stay home, with pay and without penalty; (iii) undertook to pay all costs related to COVID-19 testing and treatment; (iv) committed to keep the employee team intact, without layoffs or pay cuts; and (v) committed to continued, and increased, regular communications and transparency, providing a steady flow of written, livestream, and video reports to the entire team.
Customer focus led the Company to make its properties safer by increasing cleaning and disinfecting, reducing opportunities for infection, and limiting in-person interactions with neighbors and site teams. The Company: searched out ways to support those sheltering in place and to meet the needs of those who reported positive for infection by COVID-19; redeployed construction supervisors whose work had been paused to support property service teams, and redeployed dozens of the Company’s office workers to join the Company’s shared service center team to hold thousands of structured conversations with residents, helping each plan his or her personal adjustment to the crisis, including offering financial advice, tips on job searches, help with errands, ideas about how to find a roommate, establishing payment plans where appropriate, and even, in a few difficult cases, providing money for groceries; and used its previous investment in technology and artificial intelligence to adapt to the new conditions of social distancing and sheltering at home.
Additionally, mindful of the sacrifice of healthcare providers who worked long hours and felt unable to go home without risking infection of their families, and as part of the Aimco Cares Good Neighbor program, the Company provided free use of furnished apartments at its 21 Fitzsimons community on the Anschutz Medical Campus, its Parc Mosaic community near Boulder Community Health, and its River Club community near Newark University Hospital.
The Company’s Board was fully informed and fully engaged, including two candidates for the Board who were elected in late April 2020. During March and April 2020, the Company delivered five management reports, made numerous calls, asked individual directors for specific assistance, and held four virtual board meetings.
Knowing the importance of financial liquidity and building on $650M of cash and committed credit at the start of 2020, the Company drew down $300M on its bank lines, reduced expected 2020 capital spending by $150M, or almost one-half, and undertook to increase available credit by another $720M: a $350M bank term loan and approximately $370M in proceeds from property loans.
As objective measures of the Company’s response to the pandemic, the Company’s resident satisfaction score, based on 57,000 surveys, was a 4.31 out of 5, within one basis point of its highest score on record. The Company’s team engagement scores shattered previous records: team engagement for site teams was 4.5 out of 5, breaking the previous year’s all-time record of 4.45, and overall team engagement was 4.42 out of 5, above the prior year’s 4.2 and also a new company record.
During the course of the year, the Committee continued to evaluate whether and how to adjust the goals set out at the beginning of the year and ultimately determined that it would wait until full year performance was known to evaluate performance against the original goals as well as the necessary business priorities that arose given the COVID-19 pandemic. Taking all of this into account, the Committee determined that Aimco’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic should replace the NOI and AFFO goals.
28
Although the Company achieved outperformance on each of the other 2020 goals, the Committee capped overall KPI performance at target, or 100%. Accordingly, each executive officer was awarded 100% of the portion of his or her target STI attributable to KPI.
The Committee considered a number of factors in applying discretion to replace the Same Store NOI and AFFO goals with a goal consisting of the Company’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and in capping overall KPI performance at target. The Committee considered the Company’s strong record of pay and performance alignment, as demonstrated by the Company’s 98% or higher “FOR” Say on Pay vote for the past five consecutive years. The Committee considered the Company’s regular engagement with stockholders holding at least two-thirds of its outstanding shares, the broad support received by stockholders with regard to the Company’s compensation plans, and the refinements the Company has made to its compensation and other programs over the years as a result of those discussions. The Committee also considered the Company’s discussions with stockholders in 2020 regarding how to approach evaluation of STI goals rendered moot by the pandemic. The manner in which the Committee applied discretion with respect to 2020 STI goals is consistent with these discussions.
Various of the key financial indicators we use in managing our business and in evaluating our financial condition and operating performance are non-GAAP measures. Key non-GAAP measures we use are defined, described and, where appropriate, reconciled to the most comparable financial measures computed in accordance with GAAP under the Non-GAAP Measures heading within Part II, Item 7 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Long-Term Incentive Compensation Awards for 2020
Under the 2020 LTI program for executive officers, five forms of LTI were granted to NEOs on January 28, 2020, as follows: (1) performance-based long-term incentive units in our operating partnership (“LTIP Units”), which were granted to Mr. Considine, representing 100% of his 2020 LTI award, and to Ms. Stanfield, representing two-thirds of her 2020 LTI awards; (2) performance-based restricted stock, which was granted to Messrs. Powell, Beldin, and Kimmel and Ms. Cohn, representing two-thirds of the 2020 LTI awards for Messrs. Powell and Kimmel, approximately 50% of the 2020 LTI awards for Mr. Beldin, and approximately 53% of the 2020 LTI awards for Ms. Cohn; (3) performance-based stock options, which were granted to Mr. Beldin and Ms. Cohn, representing approximately 17% of Mr. Beldin’s 2020 LTI awards and approximately 13% of Ms. Cohn’s LTI awards; (4) time-based LTIP Units, which were granted to Ms. Stanfield, representing one-third of her 2020 LTI awards, with 25% of the award vesting on each anniversary of the grant date; and (5) time-based restricted stock, which was granted to Messrs. Powell, Beldin, and Kimmel and Ms. Cohn, representing one-third of their 2020 LTI awards, with 25% of the awards vesting on each anniversary of the grant date. Aimco refers to the performance-based LTIP Units, the performance-based restricted stock, and the performance-based stock options as “performance-based LTI awards,” because the number of such LTIP Units and the amount of restricted stock and stock options that vest, if any, is determined based on Aimco’s relative TSR performance during a forward looking, three-year performance period, as described in detail below. Ms. Johnson’s 2020 LTI was granted in January 2021 according to the backward looking LTI plan for officers below the executive officer level, which is the plan that applied to Ms. Johnson prior to her promotion to CAO in December 2020. Ms. Johnson’s 2020 LTI is discussed further below.
2020 CEO LTI Equity Mix | 2020 Other NEOs2 LTI Equity Mix |
2 Excludes Ms. Johnson, who was promoted to an executive officer position in December 2020.
29
The amount of performance-based LTI awards granted in 2020 that may vest are determined in accordance with the following TSR performance metrics:
Metric and Performance Level (1) (relative performance stated as | |||
Threshold | Target | Maximum | |
Relative to NAREIT Apartment Index | -250 bps | +50 bps | +400 bps |
Relative to MSCI US REIT Index | -350 bps | +50 bps | +500 bps |
(1) |
|
(2) | If absolute TSR for the three-year forward looking performance period is negative, any portion of the LTI award achieved above target will not vest until absolute TSR is once again positive. |
Such metrics apply to the LTIP Units granted to Mr. Considine, all of which are performance based, the performance-based LTIP Units granted to Ms. Stanfield, the performance-based restricted stock granted to Messrs. Powell, Beldin, and Kimmel and Ms. Cohn, and the performance-based stock options granted to Mr. Beldin and Ms. Cohn. The Committee set threshold performance to pay out at 50%; target performance to pay out at 100%; and maximum performance to pay out at 200%. Performance below threshold will result in no payout. If performance is between threshold and target or between target and maximum, the amount of the payout will be interpolated. Performance-based LTI awards vest 50% following the end of the three-year performance period (based on attainment of TSR targets), and 50% one year later, for a four-year plan from start to finish, illustrated below, subject to the grantee’s continued service to Aimco, and subject to a delay if absolute TSR for the three-year forward looking performance period is negative.
Post Separation, the Committee determined that the remaining performance periods of the 2019 and 2020 Aimco performance-based awards would be determined using the combined total stockholder return of Aimco and AIR.
Mr. Considine’s and Ms. Stanfield’s LTIP Units are intended to constitute profits interests within the meaning of the Code. As described above, the number of Mr. Considine’s LTIP Units granted in 2020 that may vest, and the number of Ms. Stanfield’s performance-based LTIP Units granted in 2020 that may vest, is determined based on Aimco’s relative TSR performance over the course of a forward looking, three year-performance period, with 50% of such number of LTIP Units generally vesting at the later of the time performance is determined or the third anniversary of the grant date and 50% vesting on the fourth anniversary of the grant date. With respect to 100% of the LTIP Units granted to Mr. Considine, all of which are performance based, and 25% of the performance-based LTIP Units granted to Ms. Stanfield, Mr. Considine and Ms. Stanfield were granted the ability to participate in the appreciation of value of Aimco that took place after these LTIP Units were granted, subject to their vesting. For the purpose of calculating the number of shares subject to these LTIP Units, the target dollar amount was divided by $8.50, which price was calculated by a third party financial firm with particular expertise in the valuation of such LTIP Units. The LTIP Units have a conversion price of $53.26, which was the closing price of Aimco’s stock on the grant date and equal to the fair market value of Aimco’s Common Stock on the grant date. With respect to 75% of Ms. Stanfield’s performance-based LTIP Units, which are full-value awards, the dollar amount was divided by $53.53 per share, which was the average of the closing trading prices of Aimco’s Common Stock on the five trading days up to and including the grant date. The five-day average was used to mute the effect of any single day spikes or declines. Additional details regarding the structure of LTIP Units can be found in the Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of Aimco OP L.P., effective as of December 14, 2020, the Form of Performance Vesting LTIP Unit Agreement, and the Form of Performance Vesting LTIP II Unit Agreement, all of which are incorporated by reference into Aimco’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as Exhibits 10.1, 10.13, and 10.15, respectively.
For the purpose of calculating the number of shares of performance-based restricted stock to be granted to each of Messrs. Powell, Beldin, and Kimmel and Ms. Cohn, the dollar amount allocated to restricted stock was divided by $53.53 per share, which was
30
the average of the closing trading prices of Aimco’s Common Stock on the five trading days up to and including the grant date. The five-day average was used to mute the effect of any single day spikes or declines. The share award agreements to which the performance-based restricted shares were granted do not provide for the payment of dividends until the shares are earned. Dividends accrue during the performance period. For the purpose of calculating the number of shares subject to the performance-based stock options to be granted, the dollars allocated to stock options were divided by $8.15, which price was calculated by a third party financial firm with particular expertise in the valuation of options. The stock options as granted had an exercise price of $53.26, which was the closing price of Aimco’s stock on the grant date and equal to the fair market value of Aimco’s Common Stock on the grant date.
As provided in the Employee Matters Agreement between Aimco and AIR, at the Separation each outstanding time or performance-vesting Aimco equity award was converted into awards of both shares of Aimco Common Stock and shares of AIR Common Stock. The number of shares of Aimco Common Stock and AIR Common Stock subject to each converted award (and the applicable exercise price with respect to converted stock option awards) was determined in a manner intended to preserve the aggregate value of the original Aimco equity award as measured immediately before the Separation. A similar adjustment was provided for with respect to LTIPs.
Ms. Johnson’s 2020 LTI was granted on January 27, 2021, according to the backward looking LTI plan that governs LTI awards for officers below the executive officer level, and was the plan that applied to Ms. Johnson prior to her promotion to CAO in December 2020. Under the plan that governs LTI awards for officers below the executive officer level, at the start of 2020, Mr. Considine determined that LTI for 2020 would be based in part on TSR. Specifically, 50% of the LTI target would be awarded for the purpose of attracting and retaining key talent integral to the success of Aimco. The remaining fifty percent of the LTI target would be awarded based on TSR, with half (25% of the total LTI target) based on Aimco’s one-year TSR as compared to the REIT Index, and half (another 25% of the total LTI target) based on Aimco’s three-year TSR as compared to the REIT Index. Aimco TSR at greater than 110% of the REIT Index would result in a 125% payout of the LTI target attributable to TSR, and Aimco TSR at less than 90% of the REIT Index would result in a 75% payout of the LTI target attributable to TSR. Aimco TSR between 90% and 110% of the REIT Index would result in 100% payout of the LTI target attributable to TSR. Aimco’s one-year TSR was between 90% and 110% of the REIT Index, resulting in a payout of 100% of the portion of the LTI target attributable to one-year TSR, and Aimco’s three-year TSR was greater than 110% of the REIT Index, resulting in a payout of 125% of the portion of the LTI target attributable to three-year TSR. Accordingly, Ms. Johnson was awarded 106.25% of her target LTI (i.e., 50% of the LTI target was for the purpose of retention and paid at 100%; 25% of the LTI target was paid at 100% based on relative performance on one-year TSR; and 25% of the LTI target was paid at 125% based on relative performance on three-year TSR; and the net effect of these three components resulted in an overall award of 106.25% of target LTI).
NEO Compensation for 2020
CEO Compensation. The Committee determined Mr. Considine’s STI for 2020 would be based entirely on Aimco’s performance against corporate goals, described above. The Committee calculated Mr. Considine’s STI by multiplying his STI target of $1.8 million by 100%, which was the Committee’s payout determination having reviewed Aimco’s overall performance against corporate goals, as described in detail above. The Committee granted Mr. Considine’s LTI in the form of LTIP Units on January 28, 2020, for the three-year performance period from January 1, 2020, through December 31, 2022; the LTI grant is entirely at risk, based on relative returns over the performance period. Mr. Considine’s 2020 target compensation and incentive compensation is summarized as follows:

The number of LTIP Units that are earned, if any, will vest with respect to 50% following the end of the three-year performance period and 50% one year later, for a four-year vesting period. |
Other NEO Compensation. For Messrs. Powell, Beldin, and Kimmel and Mses. Stanfield and Cohn, an allocation of the target STI was made as follows: 75% of the target STI was calculated based on Aimco’s performance against KPI and 25% of the target STI was calculated based on each executive’s achievement of his or her individual MAP goals. Ms. Johnson’s target STI was allocated 50% to KPI and 50% to achievement of her individual MAP goals. As described above, Aimco’s KPI performance was 100.00%. Accordingly, each was awarded 100.00% of the portion of his or her STI attributable to KPI (i.e., 75% of the target STI amount shown
31
below for Messrs. Powell, Beldin, and Kimmel and Mses. Stanfield and Cohn, and 50% of the target STI amount shown below for Ms. Johnson).
In determining the MAP achievement component of 2020 STI, Mr. Considine determined that: Mr. Powell’s MAP achievement would be paid at 150% of target for his leadership over redevelopment activities and acquisitions in 2020; Ms. Stanfield’s MAP achievement would be paid at 200% of target for her contributions to finance, capital allocation, and tax, including the closing of a joint venture transaction in 2020; Ms. Johnson’s MAP achievement would be paid at 125% of target for her leadership over human resources, facilities, and communications, and specifically for her leadership in connection with the Company’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic; Beldin’s MAP achievement would be paid at 100% of target for his contributions to finance and accounting and to Aimco’s balance sheet; Ms. Cohn’s MAP achievement would be paid at 200% for her leadership over legal matters, insurance, risk management, property dispositions, and asset quality and service, and specifically for her leadership in connection with the Company’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic; and Mr. Kimmel’s MAP achievement would be paid at 100% for his contributions to Aimco’s operating results, particularly in the wake of the COVD-19 pandemic. The Committee reviewed Mr. Considine’s determinations with respect to Mr. Powell and Mses. Stanfield and Johnson, and the AIR Compensation and Human Resources Committee reviewed Mr. Considine’s determinations with respect to Messrs. Beldin and Kimmel and Ms. Cohn. As described above, LTI for the NEOs other than Ms. Johnson was granted on January 28, 2020, in the form of LTIP Units, restricted stock, and/or stock options. As described above, Ms. Johnson’s LTI for 2020 was granted in January 2021. Target compensation and incentive compensation for 2020 for the other NEOs is summarized as follows:

For Ms. Stanfield, time-based LTI was in the form of LTIP Units, and for Ms. Johnson, time-based LTI was in the form of deferred cash. |
(3) | Amounts shown reflect a 100% payout of the performance-based shares resulting from achieving “target” performance. Actual payouts will be in a range of 0% to 200% of these amounts, depending on performance results for the three-year performance period from January 1, 2020, through December 31, 2022. |
Determination Regarding 2018 Performance Share Awards. As part of the 2018 LTI program, the Company granted performance-share awards that might be earned based on relative TSR as compared to the NAREIT Apartment Index (60% weighting) and the REIT Index (40% weighting) over a three-year performance period ending on December 31, 2020, with awards vesting 50% following the end of the three-year performance period (based on attainment of TSR targets) and 50% one year later, for a four-year plan from start to finish. On January 27, 2021, the Committee determined that Aimco’s three-year TSR (combined with AIR’s TSR for the period from December 15, 2020, through December 31, 2020) was 330 basis points higher than the NAREIT Apartment Index and 300 basis points higher than the REIT Index for the three-year performance period ending on December 31, 2020, resulting in the number of shares being earned at 170% of target for Messrs. Considine, Powell, Beldin, and Kimmel and Ms. Cohn (Mses. Stanfield and Johnson did not hold executive officer positions at the time the awards were made in 2018 and, accordingly, did not receive grants under the 2018 LTI program).
The chart below summarizes the results for the 2018, 2017, and 2016 performance share awards, and provides performance as of December 31, 2020, for the “in progress” 2020 and 2019 and performance share awards.

(1)100% of the LTI award for Mr. Considine is performance-based, or at risk, based entirely on relative TSR. (2)Two-thirds of the LTI awards for the other NEOs are performance-based, or at risk, based on relative TSR, and the remaining one-third of the LTI awards are for the purpose of retention, or time-based. Payouts shown include the time-based portion of the awards. (3)Amounts reflect performance of “in progress” awards as of December 31, 2020, and for the period from December 15, 2020, through December 31, 2020, include the sum of Aimco and AIR TSR for purposes of the Company’s TSR performance. (4)Aimco’s relative TSR result for 2016 LTI was 406%, exceeding the plan’s maximum performance level of 200%. Thus, the LTI payout for the CEO, whose LTI is based entirely on relative TSR, was capped at 200%, and the LTI payout for the other NEOs, incorporating the one-third portion of the award that is time-based, was capped at 167%. |
Other Compensation
From time to time, Aimco determines to provide executive officers with additional compensation in the form of discretionary cash or equity awards.
Mr. Considine awarded discretionary cash awards to the following executive officers for their significant contributions in connection with the Separation: Mr. Powell — $175,000; Ms. Stanfield — $350,000; Ms. Johnson — $250,000; Mr. Beldin — $250,000; Ms. Cohn — $550,000; and Mr. Kimmel — $125,000. Mr. Considine determined the amounts with reference to each individual’s STI target amount, meaning that each award would not be more than the executive officer’s STI target amount. These awards were in addition to, and not in lieu of, other compensation.
The Committee recognized Mr. Considine’s tremendous leadership in conceiving, structuring, guiding, and executing the Separation. The Committee evaluated whether and what type of additional compensation to award Mr. Considine to recognize his work. After consideration, Mr. Considine proposed that he forego any financial compensation tied directly to the value creation of the Separation in order to make clear that the purpose – and result – of the Separation was its creation of stockholder value. The Committee agreed, and accepted this proposal.
On April 15, 2021, Aimco awarded each of Mr. Powell and Mses. Stanfield and Johnson restricted stock awards as follows: Mr. Powell — 371,901 shares, with an approximate fair market value at the grant date of $2.36 million; Ms. Stanfield — 247,934 shares, with an approximate fair market value at the grant date of $1.57 million; and Ms. Johnson — 175,984 shares, with an approximate fair market value at the grant date of $1.12 million. These grants, which vest 50% at the end of four years from the date of grant and 50% at the end of five years from the date of grant, were provided in connection with the executive officers’ new positions following the Separation, for the purpose of retention, and to align the long-term interests of the executive officers with those of the Company’s stockholders.
Post-Employment Compensation and Employment and Severance Arrangements
401(k) Plan
Aimco provides a 401(k) plan that is offered to all Aimco teammates. In 2020, Aimco matched 25% of participant contributions to the extent of the first 4% of the participant’s eligible compensation. For 2020, the maximum match by Aimco was $2,850, which was the amount that Aimco matched for each of Messrs. Considine, Powell, Beldin, and Kimmel, and Mses. Stanfield, Johnson, and Cohn’s 2020 401(k) contributions. Aimco did not provide an additional discretionary match in 2021 because Aimco did not achieve greater than 105% performance of its 2020 corporate goals. Aimco’s prior year discretionary match to all teammates, reflecting Aimco’s achievement of greater than 125% performance of its 2019 corporate goals, was $1,200.
Other than the 401(k) plan, Aimco does not provide post-employment benefits. Aimco does not maintain a defined benefit pension plan, a supplemental executive retirement plan, or any other similar arrangements.

Executive Employment Arrangements
2017 Employment Agreement. On December 21, 2017, Aimco Properties, L.P., the operating partnership in AIR’s structure following the Separation (the “AIR Operating Partnership”), entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Considine (the “2017 Employment Agreement”). The Committee at the time evaluated the terms of the 2017 Employment Agreement in comparison to those of the CEOs of Aimco’s peers and other comparable companies. The 2017 Employment Agreement was for a two-year term. On December 19, 2019, the Committee extended the term of the 2017 Employment Agreement for an additional two years, from January 1, 2020, through December 31, 2021. The remaining terms and conditions of the 2017 Employment Agreement remained unchanged. On December 15, 2020, Mr. Considine and the AIR Operating Partnership amended the 2017 Employment Agreement to provide that references to the “Company” in the 2017 Employment Agreement would be to AIR (rather than Aimco) following the Separation.
The 2017 Employment Agreement provides for a base salary of $700,000, subject to future increase. Mr. Considine also continues to be eligible to participate in the Company’s performance-based incentive compensation plan with a target annual short-term incentive award opportunity of not less than $1.4 million (the “Target STI”), and a target long-term incentive award opportunity of not less than $4.025 million, both subject to future increase.
Pursuant to the 2017 Employment Agreement, upon termination of Mr. Considine’s employment by Aimco without cause, by Mr. Considine for good reason, or upon a termination for reason of disability, Mr. Considine is generally entitled to: (a) a lump sum cash payment equal to the sum of (i) three times the sum of his base salary at the time of termination, and (ii) the Target STI; (b) any short-term incentive bonus earned but unpaid for a prior fiscal year (the “Prior Year STI”); (c) a pro-rata portion of the short-term incentive bonus he would have earned for the year in which the termination occurs, based on the actual achievement of the applicable performance targets (the “Pro Rata STI”); and (d) immediate and full acceleration of any outstanding unvested equity awards, with all outstanding stock options (including options previously vested) remaining exercisable until the expiration of the applicable option term. In the event of Mr. Considine’s retirement, Mr. Considine will be entitled to: (a) the Prior Year STI; (b) the Pro Rata STI; and (c) accelerated vesting of outstanding and unvested equity awards, if any, that vest solely on a time basis and continued vesting of all outstanding unvested equity awards that vest based on the achievement of performance targets according to actual achievement of the applicable performance targets. If Mr. Considine’s employment is terminated due to his death, Mr. Considine’s estate will receive payment of any earned but unpaid base salary and vested accrued benefits, the Prior Year STI, and the Pro Rata STI, and all outstanding equity awards will become immediately and fully vested and be treated in accordance with the terms of the applicable award agreement.
Under the 2017 Employment Agreement, Mr. Considine is not entitled to any additional or special payments upon the occurrence of a change in control.
In the event payments to Mr. Considine are subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, the payments will be either (a) delivered in full, or (b) delivered as to such lesser extent that would result in no portion of such payments being subject to the excise tax, whichever results in the receipt by Mr. Considine of the greater amount on an after-tax basis.
The 2017 Employment Agreement also contains customary confidentiality provisions, a limited mutual non-disparagement provision, and non-competition, non-solicitation and no-hire provisions.
In addition, as part of the Separation, Aimco and AIR entered into the Employee Matters Agreement, which provides that Mr. Considine will continue to serve Aimco with specific responsibilities during 2021 and 2022 to support the establishment and growth of the Aimco business, reporting directly to the Aimco Board.
None of Messrs. Powell, Beldin, or Kimmel or Mses. Stanfield, Johnson, or Cohn has an employment agreement.
Executive Severance Arrangements
Aimco has an executive severance policy that provides that Aimco shall seek stockholder approval or ratification of any future severance agreement for any senior executive officer that provides for benefits, such as lump-sum or future periodic cash payments or new equity awards, in an amount in excess of 2.99 times such executive officer’s base salary and bonus. Compensation and benefits earned through the termination date, the value of vesting or payment of any equity awards outstanding prior to the termination date, pro rata vesting of any other long-term awards, or benefits provided under plans, programs or arrangements that are applicable to one or more groups of employees in addition to senior executives are not subject to the policy. It has been Aimco’s longstanding practice not to provide excessive severance arrangements.
Executive Severance Policy. On February 22, 2018, the Committee adopted the Apartment Investment and Management Company Executive Severance Policy (the “Executive Severance Policy”). The Executive Severance Policy supersedes and replaces any employment agreement or other plan, policy or practice involving the payment of severance benefits to participants under the Executive Severance Policy. On April 28, 2021, the Committee amended the Executive Severance Policy to include severance provisions for the Chief Executive Officer and in accordance with recommendations provided by the Committee’s compensation consultant to bring the policy in line with market. Prior to the Separation, severance provisions for the CEO were set forth in a separate employment agreement. The Company’s CEO and Executive Vice Presidents, as determined on the records of the Company and any other entities
34
through which the operations of the Company are conducted, are eligible to participate in the Executive Severance Policy. Each of Mr. Powell and Mses. Stanfield and Johnson are participants under the Executive Severance Policy. Messrs. Beldin and Kimmel and Ms. Cohn were participants under the Executive Severance Policy until the Separation. Mr. Considine was not a participant under the Executive Severance Policy. None of Messrs. Powell, Considine, Beldin, or Kimmel or Mses. Stanfield, Johnson, or Cohn received severance or any other payments or benefits in connection with the Separation.
The Executive Severance Policy provides that if the Company terminates a participant’s employment without “Cause,” or if the participant terminates his or her employment for “Good Reason” (each as defined in the Executive Severance Policy), then the participant will be eligible to receive the following benefits:
• | with respect to the CEO, a lump sum payment equal to two times the sum of (i) the annual base salary for the calendar year of the date of termination, and (ii) the target annual bonus for the calendar year of the date of termination; |
• | with respect to the other executive officers, a lump sum payment equal to the sum of (i) the annual base salary for the calendar year of the date of termination, and (ii) the target annual bonus for the calendar year of the date of termination; and |
• | with respect to each participant, 18 months of continued health benefits coverage at the Company’s expense. |
The Performance Graphvesting and exercise of any equity awards held by a participant on the date of termination will be determined in accordance with the applicable incentive plan and award agreement.
Pursuant to the terms of the Executive Severance Policy, if the Company terminates a participant’s employment without Cause, or if the participant terminates his or her employment for Good Reason, in either case, within the period commencing six months prior to and ending 24 months following a “Change in Control” (as defined in the Executive Severance Policy), then in lieu of the severance benefits described above the participant will be eligible to receive the following benefits:
• | with respect to the CEO, a lump sum payment equal to three times the sum of (i) the annual base salary for the calendar year of the date of termination, and (ii) the target annual bonus for the calendar year of the date of termination; |
• | with respect to the other executive officers, a lump sum payment equal to two times the sum of (i) the annual base salary for the calendar year of the date of termination, and (ii) the target annual bonus for the calendar year of the date of termination; |
• | with respect to each participant, 24 months of continued health benefits coverage at the Company’s expense; and |
• | 100% accelerated vesting of any unvested equity awards then-held by the participant. |
The Executive Severance Policy provides that if the employment of the participant is terminated by reason of the participant’s death or disability, then the participant will be eligible to receive a pro-rated bonus for the year of termination. In addition, the vesting and exercise of any equity awards held by the participant at the time of his or her death or disability will be determined in accordance with the applicable incentive plan and award agreement.
In the event that any payment or benefit payable to a participant under the Executive Severance Policy would result in the imposition of excise taxes under the “golden parachute” provisions of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code, then such payments and benefits will either be made and/or provided in full or will be reduced such that the excise tax under Section 280G is not applicable, whichever is least economically disadvantageous to the participant. The Executive Severance Policy does not provide for any excise tax or other tax “gross-up” payment.
All severance payments and benefits under the Executive Severance Policy are subject to applicable withholding obligations, the participant’s execution and non-revocation of a release of claims, and compliance with certain non-competition, non-disclosure and non-solicitation covenants set forth in a restrictive covenant agreement that is appropriate for the participant’s position.
The Executive Severance Policy will remain in effect, subject to amendment, until terminated by the Board. The Board may terminate or amend the Executive Severance Policy at any time, so long as at least 90 days’ prior notice is provided to any participant if the termination or amendment of the Executive Severance Policy would materially or adversely affect the rights of the participant.

Non-Competition and Non-Solicitation Agreements
Effective in January 2002 for Mr. Considine, and in connection with their employment and/or promotions by Aimco for Messrs. Powell, Beldin, and Kimmel and Mses. Stanfield, Johnson, and Cohn, Aimco entered into certain non-competition and non-solicitation agreements with each executive. Mr. Considine’s 2002 non-competition and non-solicitation agreement was replaced by his 2008 and 2017 Employment Agreements. Pursuant to these agreements, each of these NEOs agreed that during the term of his or her employment with the Company and for a period of two years following the termination of his or her employment, except in circumstances where there was a change in control of the Company, he or she would not (i) be employed by a competitor of the Company named on a schedule to the agreement, (ii) solicit other employees to leave the Company’s employment, or (iii) solicit customers of Aimco to terminate their relationship with the Company. The agreements further required that the NEOs protect Aimco’s trade secrets and confidential information. For Messrs. Powell, Beldin, and Kimmel and Mses. Stanfield, Johnson, and Cohn, the agreements provide that in order to enforce the above-noted non-competition condition following the executive’s termination of employment by the Company without cause, each such executive will receive, for a period not to extend beyond the earlier of 24 months following such termination or the date of acceptance of employment with a non-competitor, (i) non-compete payments in an amount, if any, to be determined by the Company in its sole discretion and (ii) a monthly payment equal to two-thirds of such executive’s monthly base salary at the time of termination. For purposes of these agreements, “cause” is defined to mean, among other things, the executive’s (i) breach of the agreement, (ii) failure to perform required employment services, (iii) misappropriation of Company funds or property, (iv) conviction, plea of guilty, or plea of no contest to a crime involving fraud or moral turpitude, or (v) negligence, fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, misconduct or violation of law.
Equity Award Agreements
Double Trigger Vesting Upon Change in Control. The award agreements pursuant to which restricted stock, LTIP Unit and/or stock option awards have been granted to Messrs. Considine, Powell, Beldin, and Kimmel and Mses. Stanfield, Johnson, and Cohn, as applicable, provide that if (i) a change in control occurs and (ii) the executive’s employment with the Company is terminated either by the Company without cause or by the executive for good reason, in either case, within 12 months following the change in control, then (a) for time-based options or restricted stock, all outstanding shares of restricted stock or unvested stock options shall become immediately and fully vested and exercisable, and all vested options will remain exercisable for the remainder of the term of the option, and (b) for performance-based options, restricted stock and/or LTIP Unit awards, shares, unvested options and/or units will vest based on the higher of actual or target performance through the truncated performance period ending on the date of the change in control, and all vested options will remain exercisable for the remainder of the term of the option.
Accelerated Vesting Upon Termination of Employment Due to Death or Disability. Pursuant to the 2017 Employment Agreement, as set forth above, if Mr. Considine’s employment is terminated due to his death or disability, and all outstanding equity awards will become immediately and fully vested and be treated in accordance with the terms of the applicable award agreement. The award agreements pursuant to which restricted stock, LTIP Unit, or stock option awards have been granted to Messrs. Considine, Powell, Beldin, and Kimmel and Mses. Stanfield, Johnson, and Cohn, as applicable, provide that upon a termination of employment due to death or disability, then (a) for time-based restricted stock, LTIP Units, or stock options, all outstanding shares of restricted stock, LTIP Units, and/or unvested stock options shall become immediately and fully vested and exercisable, and all vested options will remain exercisable for the remainder of the term of the option, and (b) for performance-based restricted stock, LTIP Unit, or stock option awards, all shares, units, and/or unvested options will vest based on the higher of actual or target performance through the date of termination, and all vested options will remain exercisable for the remainder of the term of the option.
Other Benefits; Perquisite Philosophy
Aimco’s executive officer benefit programs are substantially the same as for all other eligible officers and employees. Aimco does not provide executives with more than minimal perquisites, such as reserved parking places.
Stock Ownership Guidelines and Required Holding Periods After Vesting
Aimco believes that it is in the best interest of Aimco’s stockholders for Aimco’s executive officers to own Aimco stock. Every year, the Committee and CEO review Aimco’s stock ownership guidelines, each executive officer’s holdings in light of the stock ownership guidelines, and each executive officer’s accumulated realized and unrealized stock option and restricted stock gains. The Committee updated the stock ownership guidelines in April 2021.
Equity ownership guidelines for all executive officers are determined as a multiple of the executive’s base salary. The Committee and management have established the following stock ownership guidelines for Aimco’s executive officers:
Officer Position | Ownership Target |
Chief Executive Officer | 5x base salary |
Other Executive Vice Presidents | 3x base salary |
Any executive officer who has not satisfied the stock ownership guidelines must, until the stock ownership guidelines are satisfied, hold 50% of any restricted stock that vests, after deduction of restricted stock sold for payment of income taxes related to the vesting for at least three years from the date of vesting, and hold shares equal to 50% of (i) the value realized upon option exercises less (ii) related income taxes for at least three years from the date of exercise.
Each of Mr. Powell and Mses. Stanfield and Johnson exceeded the ownership targets established in Aimco’s stock ownership guidelines as of April 29, 2021.
Role of Outside Consultants
The Committee has the authority under its charter to engage the services of outside advisors, experts and others to assist the Committee. In 2020, the Committee engaged FPL Associates, L.P. (“FPL”) to review Aimco’s executive compensation plan. FPL did not provide other services to Aimco. The Committee assessed the independence of FPL pursuant to SEC rules and concluded that FPL is independent.
Base Salary, Incentive Compensation, and Equity Grant Practices
Base salary adjustments typically take effect on January 1. The Committee (for the CEO) and the CEO, in consultation with the Committee (for the other executive officers), determine incentive compensation in late January or early February. STI is typically paid in February or March. LTI is granted on a date determined by the Committee, typically in late January or early February.
Aimco grants equity in three scenarios: in connection with its annual incentive compensation, program as discussed above; in connection with certain new-hire or promotion packages; and for purposes of retention.
With respect to LTI, the Committee sets the grant date for the restricted stock, LTIP Unit, and stock option grants. The Committee typically sets grant dates at the time of its final compensation determination, generally in late January or early February. Due to the Separation and the additional time taken to create a new executive compensation plan for post-Separation Aimco, the Committee granted 2021 LTI in late April 2021. The date of determination and date of award are not selected based on share price. In the case of new-hire packages that include equity awards, grants are made on the employee’s start date or on a date designated in advance based on the passage of a specific number of days after the employee’s start date. For non-executive officers, as provided for in the 2015 Plan, the Committee has delegated the authority to make equity awards, up to certain limits, to the Chief Financial Officer (Ms. Stanfield) and/or Corporate Secretary (Ms. Johnson). The Committee and Ms. Stanfield and Ms. Johnson time grants without regard to the share price or the timing of the release of material non-public information and do not time grants for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.
2021 Compensation Targets
Based on comparison to compensation paid to CEOs at Aimco’s peers, the Committee set Mr. Powell’s target total compensation (base compensation, STI and LTI) for 2021 at $1.8 million. Mr. Powell, in consultation with and approval from the Committee, set target total compensation (base compensation, STI and LTI) for 2021 for the other NEOs as follows: Ms. Stanfield — $1.2 million; and Ms. Johnson — $0.85 million. Aimco performance will determine the amounts paid for 2021 STI and the portion of LTI awards that vest, and such amounts may be less than, or in excess of, these target amounts. STI will be paid in cash. The LTI was granted on April 28, 2021, and was in the form of restricted stock or stock options.
37
Accounting Treatment and Tax Deductibility of Executive Compensation
The Committee generally considers the accounting treatment and tax implications of the compensation awarded or paid to our executives. Grants of equity compensation awards under our long-term incentive program are accounted for under FASB ASC Topic 718. Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code was amended on December 22, 2017, by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”). Under the Tax Act, Section 162(m) applies to each employee who serves as the Company’s principal executive officer or principal financial officer during the taxable year, each other employee of the Company who is among the three most highly compensated officers during such taxable year, and any other employee who was a covered employee of the Company for any preceding taxable year beginning after December 31, 2016. The Tax Act also eliminated the performance-based compensation exception with respect to tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, but includes a transition rule with respect to compensation that is provided pursuant to a written binding contract in effect on November 2, 2017, and not materially modified after that date. The Company has awarded, and will continue to award, compensation as it considers appropriate that does not qualify for deductibility under Section 162(m).
COMPENSATION AND HUMAN RESOURCES COMMITTEE REPORT TO STOCKHOLDERS
Prior to the Separation, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee (which was comprised of the pre-Separation independent directors) held five meetings during the year ended December 31, 2020. The post-Separation Compensation and Human Resources Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion & Analysis with management. Based upon such review, the related discussions and such other matters deemed relevant and appropriate by the Compensation and Human Resources Committee, the Compensation and Human Resources Committee has recommended to the Board that the Compensation Discussion & Analysis be included in this filing.

GRANTS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONSPLAN-BASED AWARDS IN 2020
Executive Overview
We are focused onThe following table provides details regarding plan-based awards granted to the ownership, management, redevelopment, and some development of quality apartment communities located in several of the largest markets in the United States.
Our principal financial objective is to provide predictable and attractive returns to our equity holders. We measure our long-term total return using Economic Income, defined as NAV growth plus dividends. NAV is used by many investors because the value of company assets can be readily estimated, even for non-earning assets such as land or properties under development. NAV has the advantage of incorporating the investment decisions of thousands of real estate investors, enhancing comparability among companies that have differences in their accounting, avoiding disparity that can result from application of GAAP to investment properties and various ownership structures. Some investors focus on multiples of AFFO and Nareit FFO. Our disclosure of AFFO, a measure of current return, complements our focus on Economic Income. We also use Pro forma FFO as a secondary measure of operational performance. Over the last five years as of December 31, 2019, our Economic Income grew at a compounded annual return of 10%, comprised of a 6.9% compounded annual growth in NAV per share and $7.08 in cash dividends per share paid over the period. In 2019, AFFO per share grew $0.04, to $2.20 per share.
Year-over-year as of December 31, 2019, our NAV per share increased by about 3.9%, which, with our cash dividend, provided Economic Income of 6.8%.
Financial Highlights
Net income attributable to common stockholders per common share, on a dilutive basis, decreased by $1.19NEOs during the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to 2018, primarily due to lower gains from dispositions.
We sold our Asset Management business in July 2018, accepting near-term earnings dilution as the price of an increased long-term growth rate. In 2019, we overcame these earnings headwinds and Pro forma FFO per share increased by $0.05, or 2.0%, for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to 2018. For the three months ended December 31, 2019 compared to 2018, the first comparative period without the Asset Management business, our Pro forma FFO and AFFO per share increased 5% and 12%, respectively.
The year-over-year increase in Pro Forma FFO was due primarily to contribution from Same Store property net operating income growth of 4.3%, driven by a 3.8% increase in revenue, partially offset by a 2.4% increase in expenses. The increase in Same Store net operating income was offset partially by earnings dilution from the sale of the Asset Management business and lower tax benefit. AFFO per share also increased by $0.04, or 1.9%, for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to 2018 due to the $0.05 increase in Pro forma FFO per share, partially offset by a $0.01 per share increase in capital replacement spending.
Our business is organized around five areas of strategic focus: operational excellence; redevelopment and development; portfolio management; balance sheet; and team and culture. The results from the execution of our business plan in 2019 are further described in the sections that follow.
Operational Excellence
We own and operate a portfolio of apartment communities, diversified by both geography and price point. As of December 31, 2019, our portfolio included 124 apartment communities with 32,839 apartment homes in which we held an average ownership of approximately 99%, and approximately 80% of the value of our portfolio, measured by gross asset value (the estimated fair value of our communities), was attributable to Same Store communities.
Our property operations team produced solid results for our portfolio for the year ended December 31, 2019. Same Store highlights include:

Our focus on efficient operations through productivity initiatives such as centralization of administrative tasks, optimization of economies of scale at the corporate level, increased automation, and investment in more durable, longer-lived materials has

helped us control operating expenses. These and other innovations contributed to limiting growth in Same Store controllable operating expense, defined as property expenses less taxes, insurance, and utility expenses, compounding for the past 12 years at an annual rate of negative 0.2%. Our 2019 controllable operating expenses were flat compared to 2018.
Redevelopment and Development
Our second line of business is the redevelopment and some development of apartment communities. Through redevelopment activities, we expect to create value by repositioning communities within our portfolio. We undertake ground-up development when warranted by risk-adjusted investment returns, either directly or in connection with the redevelopment of an existing community. When warranted, we rely on the expertise and credit of a third-party developer familiar with the local market to limit our exposure to construction risk. Over the past five years, we have spent approximately $1.0 billion on redevelopment and development, targeting FCF internal rates of return of approximately 9% to 11% on these investments.
We invest to earn risk-adjusted returns in excess of those expected from the apartment communities sold in paired trades to fund the redevelopment or development. Of these two activities, we generally favor redevelopment because it permits adjustment to the scope and timing of spending to align with changing market conditions and customer preferences.
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we invested $229.8 million in redevelopment and development, an increase of approximately 30% compared to 2018. We continued redevelopment activities at Bay Parc and the ground-up construction at Parc Mosaic and The Fremont on the Anschutz Medical Campus. We also began the redevelopment of the North Tower at Flamingo Point and 707 Leahy, and ground-up construction at Eldridge Townhomes adjacent to our Elm Creek apartment community.

As of December 31, 2019, our total estimated net investment at redevelopment and development communities is $577.5 million, with a projected weighted-average net operating income yield on these investments of 5.3%, assuming untrended rents. As of December 31, 2019, $309.2 million of this total has been funded. The remaining estimated net investment of $268.3 million on these communities is expected to be funded in 2020 and future years, on a leverage-neutral basis, with proceeds from sales of apartment communities with lower forecasted FCF internal rates of return.
When possible, we prefer redevelopments that can be completed one apartment home at a time, when that home is vacated and available for renovation, or one floor at a time, thereby limiting the number of down homes and lease-up risk. We currently have six short-cycle projects, including Bay Parc, ongoing in our portfolio. During the year ended December 31, 2019, we completed 150 apartment homes, with another 21 homes under construction as of December 31, 2019.
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we leased 251 redeveloped or newly developed apartment homes. As of December 31, 2019, our exposure to lease-up at active redevelopment and developments was 866 apartment homes, or less than 3% of our homes.
21
Please refer to the Redevelopment and Development subsection to the Liquidity and Capital Resources section for additional information regarding our redevelopment and development investment during the year ended December 31, 2019.
Portfolio Management
Our portfolio of apartment communities is diversified across “A,” “B,” and “C+” price points, averaging “B/B+” in quality, and is also diversified across several of the largest markets in the United States. We measure the quality of apartment communities in our portfolio based on average rents of our apartment homes compared to local market average rents as reported by a third-party provider of commercial real estate performance and analysis. Under this rating system, we classify as “A” quality apartment communities those earning rents greater than 125% of local market average; as “B” quality apartment communities those earning rents between 90% and 125% of local market average; as “C+” quality apartment communities those earning rents greater than $1,100 per month, but lower than 90% of local market average; and as “C” quality apartment communities those earning rents less than $1,100 per month and lower than 90% of local market average. We classify as “B/B+” quality a portfolio that on average earns rents between 100% and 125% of local market average rents. Although some companies and analysts within the multifamily real estate industry use apartment community quality ratings of “A,” “B,” and “C,” some of which are tied to local market rent averages, the metrics used to classify apartment community quality as well as the period for which local market rents are calculated may vary from company to company. Accordingly, our rating system for measuring apartment community quality is neither broadly nor consistently used in the multifamily real estate industry.
The following table summarizes information about our portfolio relative to the market for the three months ended December 31, 2019:
Average revenue per Aimco apartment home (1) |
| $ | 2,272 |
|
Portfolio average rents as a percentage of local market average rents |
|
| 113 | % |
Percentage A (4Q 2019 average revenue per Aimco apartment home $2,943) |
|
| 54 | % |
Percentage B (4Q 2019 average revenue per Aimco apartment home $2,006) |
|
| 29 | % |
Percentage C+ (4Q 2019 average revenue per Aimco apartment home $1,782) |
|
| 17 | % |
|
|
Our average revenue per apartment home was $2,272 for the three months ended December 31, 2019, representing an increase of 7% compared to the same period in 2018, and a 7.2% compounded annual growth rate over the past five years. This increase is due to growth in Same Store revenue as well as our acquisition activities, lease-up of redevelopment and acquisition communities, and the sale of communities with average monthly revenues per apartment home lower than those of the retained portfolio.
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we reallocated capital from slower-growth markets such as Chicago and reinvested the proceeds in higher-growth markets such as Miami, Denver, and Boston.
As part of our portfolio strategy, we seek to sell up to 10% of our portfolio annually and to reinvest the proceeds from such sales in accretive uses such as capital enhancements, redevelopments, some developments, and selective acquisitions with projected FCF internal rates of return higher than expected from the communities being sold. Through this disciplined approach to capital recycling, we increase the quality and expected growth rate of our portfolio.
As we execute our portfolio strategy, we expect to increase average revenue per Aimco apartment home at a rate greater than market rent growth, increase FCF margins, and maintain sufficient geographic and price point diversification to limit volatility and concentration risk.
Acquisitions
We follow a disciplined paired trade policy in making investments. We evaluate potential acquisitions seeking FCF internal rates of returns higher than those of the communities being sold. We prefer well-located real estate where land is a significant percentage of total value and provides potential upside from development or redevelopment.
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we acquired three properties: One Ardmore in Ardmore, Pennsylvania; Prism (50 Rogers), a community under construction in Cambridge, Massachusetts; and 1001 Brickell Bay Drive in Miami, Florida. Together, these acquisitions have an expected weighted-average FCF internal rate of return of 9%, approximately 300 basis points better than expected from the properties being sold, or to be sold, in paired trades to fund the acquisitions.
Mezzanine Investment
On November 26, 2019, we made a five-year, $275.0 million mezzanine loan at a 10% annual rate to the partnership owning Parkmerced Apartments. The loan is secured by a second-priority deed of trust. We simultaneously received a ten-year
22
option to acquire a 30% interest in the partnership at an exercise price of $1.0 million, increased by 30% of future capital spending to progress development and redevelopment of Parkmerced Apartments.
Parkmerced Apartments is a 152-acre site in the southwest corner of San Francisco, currently improved with 3,221 apartment homes completed shortly before and after World War II. These apartment homes are subject to City of San Francisco rent control. The development of the site is governed by a development agreement that allows for 8,900 total residential units, with the new units exempt from City of San Francisco rent control. The partnership, which is the borrower and in which we have the option to acquire 30% ownership, owns 3,165 of the existing rent-controlled apartment homes, which excludes apartment homes transferred as part of an earlier phase of development to which we are not a party, as well as the vested right to develop 4,093 of the new market-rate homes.
The mezzanine loan provides us with current income with minimal expected downside risk. The option is expected to provide us with an opportunity to participate in substantial value creation from the vested development rights.
Dispositions
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we sold 12 apartment communities, generating net proceeds of $619.4 million used to fund acquisitions, redevelopment, development, the repurchase of Aimco shares in the fourth quarter of 2018, and other capital investments. We delayed approximately $300 million of planned fourth quarter 2019 and January 2020 sales. While this delay temporarily increased leverage, we expect a better execution as the transaction market remains deep, liquid, and attractively priced.
Balance Sheet
Leverage
Our leverage strategy seeks to increase financial returns by using leverage with appropriate caution. We limit risk through our balance sheet structure, employing low leverage, primarily non-recourse and long-dated property debt; build financial flexibility by maintaining ample unused and available credit as well as holding properties with substantial value unencumbered by property debt; and use partners’ capital when it enhances financial returns or reduces investment risk.
Our leverage includes our share of long-term, non-recourse property debt encumbering apartment communities, outstanding borrowings on the revolving credit facility, outstanding preferred equity and redeemable noncontrolling interests in a consolidated real estate partnership. Please refer to the Liquidity and Capital Resources section for additional information regarding our leverage.
Our target leverage ratios are Proportionate Debt and Preferred Equity to Adjusted EBITDAre below 7.0x and Adjusted EBITDAre to Adjusted Interest Expense and Preferred Dividends greater than 2.5x. Our leverage ratios for the three months ended December 31, 2019, are presented below:
|
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
We calculate Adjusted EBITDAre and Adjusted Interest Expense used in our leverage ratios based on the most recent three month amounts, annualized. The sales delay mentioned above increased Proportionate Debt to Adjusted EBITDAre and Proportionate Debt and Preferred Equity to Adjusted EBITDAre by 0.3x as of December 31, 2019. We expect a gradual decline in leverage to EBITDAre ratios throughout 2020, reaching approximately 6.4x and 6.5x, respectively, at year end. In future years, we expect earnings growth from completed redevelopments will increase EBITDAre and further reduce our leverage ratios.
Please refer to the Leverage Ratios subsection of the Non-GAAP Measures section for further information about the calculation of our leverage ratios.
Refinancing Activity
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we financed $772.6 million of new non-recourse, fixed-rate property debt. These loans have a weighted-average interest rate of 3.32%, a weighted-average term to maturity of 11.4 years, and contributed an approximately 29 basis point decrease in our annual cost of leverage compared to 2018.
23
Liquidity
Our liquidity consists of cash balances and available capacity on our revolving credit facility. As of December 31, 2019, we had cash and restricted cash of $177.7 million and had the capacity to borrow up to $517.8 million on our revolving credit facility, after consideration of $7.2 million letters of credit backed by the facility. We use our credit facility primarily for working capital and other short-term purposes and to secure letters of credit.
We manage our financial flexibility by maintaining an investment grade rating and holding apartment communities that are unencumbered by property debt. As of December 31, 2019, we held unencumbered apartment communities with an estimated fair market value of approximately $2.4 billion.
Two credit rating agencies rate our creditworthiness, using different methodologies and ratios for assessing our credit, and both have rated our credit and outlook as BBB- (stable), an investment grade rating. Although some of the ratios they use are similar to those we use to measure our leverage, there are differences in our methods of calculation and therefore our leverage ratios disclosed above are not indicative of the ratios that may be calculated by these agencies.
Equity Capital Activities
On February 3, 2019, Aimco’s Board of Directors declared a special dividend on the common stock that consisted of $67.1 million in cash and 4.5 million shares of Common Stock. The special dividend also included the regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.39 per share. Simultaneously, Aimco’s Board of Directors authorized a reverse stock split, effective on February 20, 2019, in which every 1.03119 Aimco common share was combined into one Aimco common share, which was effective at the close of business on February 20, 2019. Taken together, the total number of shares outstanding after the stock dividend and reverse split was unchanged from the number of shares outstanding immediately prior to the two actions. Please refer to Notes 7 and 8 to the consolidated financial statements in Item 8 for further information regarding these transactions and the corresponding impact to the Aimco Operating Partnership’s common unitholders.
On January 28, 2020, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.41 per share of Common Stock, representing an increase of 5% compared to the regular quarterly dividends paid in 2019. This amount is payable on February 28, 2020, to stockholders of record on February 14, 2020.
Team and Culture
Our team and culture are keys to our success. Our intentional focus on a collaborative and productive culture based on respect for others and personal responsibility is reinforced by a preference for promotion from within. We focus on succession planning and talent development to produce a strong, stable team that is the enduring foundation of our success. We offer benefits reinforcing our value of caring for each other, including paid time for parental leave, paid time annually to volunteer in local communities, college scholarships for the children of team members, an emergency fund to help team members in crisis, financial support for our team members who are becoming United States citizens, and a bonus structure at all levels of the organization. We also pay full compensation and benefits for team members who are actively deployed by the United States military. Out of hundreds of participating companies in 2019, Aimco was one of only seven recognized as a “Top Workplace” in Colorado for each of the past seven years. Aimco was also recognized as a Top Workplace in the Bay Area in 2019. Also in 2019, Aimco was the only real estate company to receive a BEST award from the Association for Talent Development in recognition of our company-wide success in talent development, marking our second consecutive year receiving this award.
Results of Operations
Because our operating results depend primarily on income from our apartment communities, the supply of and demand for apartments influences our operating results. Additionally, the level of expenses required to operate and maintain our apartment communities and the pace and price at which we redevelop, acquire, and dispose of our apartment communities affect our operating results.
The following discussion and analysis of the results of our operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements in Item 8.
Year Ended December 31, 2019, Compared to December 31, 2018
Net income attributable to Aimco and net income attributable to the Aimco Operating Partnership decreased by $192.1 million and $200.5 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to 2018, as described more fully below.
24
Property Operations
We have four segments: Same Store, Redevelopment and Development, Acquisition, and Other Real Estate. Our Same Store segment includes communities that have reached a stabilized level of operations as of the beginning of a two-year comparable period and maintained it throughout the current and comparable prior year, and are not expected to be sold within 12 months. Our Redevelopment and Development segment includes communities that are currently under construction that have not achieved a stabilized level of operations, and those that have been completed in recent years that have not achieved and maintained stabilized operations for both the current and comparable prior year. Our Acquisition segment includes those communities that we have acquired since the beginning of a two-year comparable period. Our Other Real Estate segment primarily includes apartment communities that are subject to limitations on rent increases, apartment communities that we expect to sell within 12 months but do not yet meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale, certain retail spaces, and 1001 Brickell Bay Drive.
As of December 31, 2019, our Same Store segment included 91 apartment communities with 26,649 apartment homes.
From December 31, 2018 to December 31, 2019, on a net basis, our Same Store segment decreased by two apartment communities and increased by 744 apartment homes. These changes consisted of:

As of December 31, 2019: our Redevelopment and Development segment included seven apartment communities with 3,143 apartment homes; our Acquisition segment included seven apartment communities with 1,590 apartment homes; and our Other Real Estate segment included 15 apartment communities with 1,315 apartment homes and one office building.
We use proportionate property net operating income to assess the operating performance of our communities. Proportionate property net operating income reflects our share of rental and other property revenues, excluding resident utility reimbursement, less direct property operating expenses, net of resident utility reimbursement, for consolidated communities. Accordingly, the results of operations of our segments discussed below are presented on a proportionate basis and exclude the results of four apartment communities with 142 apartment homes that we do not consolidate.
We do not include offsite costs associated with property management, casualty losses, or the results of apartment communities sold or held for sale, reported in consolidated amounts, in our assessment of segment performance. Accordingly, these items are not allocated to our segment results discussed below.
Please refer to Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements in Item 8 for further discussion regarding our segments, including a reconciliation of these proportionate amounts to consolidated rental and other property revenues attributable to real estate and property operating expenses attributable to real estate.

For the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to 2018, our Same Store proportionate property net operating income increased by $21.2 million, or 4.3%. This increase was attributable primarily to a $25.5 million, or 3.8%, increase in rental and other property revenues due to higher average revenues of $69 per apartment home comprised of increases in rental rates and a 60 basis point increase in average daily occupancy. Renewal rents increased by 4.9% and new lease rents increased by 1.9%, resulting in a weighted-average increase of 3.4%. The increase in Same Store rental and other property revenues was offset partially by a $4.3 million, or 2.4%, increase in property operating expenses due primarily to higher real estate taxes. Controllable operating expenses, which exclude utility costs, real estate taxes, and insurance, were flat for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to 2018.
Redevelopment and Development proportionate property net operating income decreased by $1.2 million, or 2.6%, for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to 2018. This decrease was attributable primarily to de-leasing at Flamingo Point and 707 Leahy in preparation for redevelopment, offset partially by increased occupancy driven by the lease-up of Park Towne Place.
Acquisition proportionate property net operating income increased by $10.1 million, or 49.9%, for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to 2018. This increase was attributable primarily to the 2019 acquisition of One Ardmore and a full period of operating activity at the four Philadelphia communities acquired in 2018, compared to eight months of operations during the year ended December 31, 2018.
Other Real Estate proportionate property net operating income increased by $4.7 million, or 20.5%, for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to 2018 due primarily to the acquisition of 1001 Brickell Bay Drive in 2019.
Year Ended December 31, 2018, Compared to December 31, 2017
Net income attributable to Aimco and net income attributable to the Aimco Operating Partnership increased by $350.5 million and $370.4 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2018, as compared to 2017, as described more fully below.
Proportionate Property Net Operating Income
As of December 31, 2018, excluding apartment communities sold during 2019: our Same Store segment consisted of 83 Same Store apartment communities with 23,091 apartment homes; our Redevelopment and Development segment included 13 apartment communities with 6,294 apartment homes; our Acquisition segment included seven apartment communities with 1,943 apartment homes; and our Other Real Estate segment included 15 apartment communities with 1,483 apartment homes.
The results of our segments for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, as presented below, are based on the apartment community classifications as of December 31, 2018, and exclude amounts related to apartment communities sold
26
during 2019. Based on the nature of our apartment community classifications, there is no comparison of the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017. The results of operations for these communities are reflected in the table below.

For the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to 2017, Same Store proportionate property net operating income increased by $12.3 million, or 3.2%. This increase was attributable primarily to a $17.0 million, or 3.3%, increase in rental and other property revenues due to higher average revenues of $53 per apartment home comprised of increases in rental rates and a 60 basis point increase in average daily occupancy. Renewal rents increased by 4.9% and new lease rents increased by 1.9%, resulting in a weighted-average increase of 3.4%. The increase in Same Store and other property revenues was offset partially by a $4.7 million, or 3.5%, increase in property operating expenses due primarily to increases in real estate taxes and repairs and maintenance costs. During the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to 2017, controllable operating expenses increased by $1.0 million, or 1.5%.
Redevelopment and Development proportionate property net operating income increased by $18.8 million, or 18.2%, forthe year ended December 31, 2018, compared to 2017 due to leasing activities at communities, offset partially by decreases due to apartment homes taken out of service for redevelopment.
Acquisition proportionate property net operating income increased by $24.0 million, or 230.1%, forthe year ended December 31, 2018, compared to 2017 due to the 2018 acquisitions of Bent Tree Apartments, Avery Row, and four apartment communities in Philadelphia.
Non-Segment Real Estate Operations
Operating income amounts not attributed to our segments include offsite costs associated with property management, casualty losses, and the results of apartment communities sold or held for sale, reported in consolidated amounts, which we do not allocate to our segments for purposes of evaluating segment performance.
For the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, casualty losses totaled $9.0 million, $4.0 million, and $8.2 million, respectively. Casualty losses during the year ended December 31, 2019, included one major claim due to storm-related flooding at our One Canal apartment community and several other claims due to fire damage. Casualty losses for the year ended December 31, 2018, included several claims due primarily to storm and fire damage, offset partially by recovery from insurance carriers for insured losses in excess of policy limits. Casualty losses were elevated during the year ended December 31, 2017, due primarily to hurricane damage.
For the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, apartment communities that were sold or classified as held for sale generated net operating income of $16.6 million, $54.6 million, and $91.1 million, respectively.
27
Asset Management Results
For the year ended December 31, 2019, there was no net operating income attributable to the Asset Management business, which we sold in July 2018.
For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, net operating income attributable to the Asset Management business was $28.9 million and $51.8 million, respectively.
Depreciation and Amortization
For the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to 2017, depreciation and amortization expense increased by $2.4 million and $11.6 million, respectively, due primarily to apartment communities acquired in 2019 and 2018 and renovated apartment homes placed in service after their completion. This increase was offset partially by decreases in depreciation associated with apartment communities sold and with communities owned by partnerships served by our Asset Management business, which we sold in 2018.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2019, were relatively flat compared to the year ended December 31, 2018.
For the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to 2017, general and administrative expenses increased $2.6 million, due primarily to higher variable incentive compensation cost.
Other Expenses, Net
Other expenses, net, includes costs associated with our risk management activities, partnership administration expenses, and certain non-recurring items.
For the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to 2018, other expenses, net, increased by $15.3 million, related primarily to the resolution of our litigation against Airbnb in 2018 and an increase in rent expense associated with our ground leases.
For the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to 2017, other expenses, net, decreased by $7.4 million, due primarily to the resolution of our litigation against Airbnb and settlement of litigation related to the challenge to the title of the La Jolla Cove property, which we acquired in 2014.
Provision for Real Estate Impairment Loss
We recognized no provisions for impairment losses during the years ended December 31, 2019 or 2018.
In January 2018, we agreed to sell our interests in the entities owning the La Jolla Cove property in settlement of legal actions filed in 2014 by a group of disappointed buyers who had hoped to acquire the property. As a result of the settlement, we recognized in our 2017 results a gross impairment loss of $35.8 million, $25.6 million of which related to the establishment of a deferred tax liability assumed in connection with our acquisition of the business entities. The tax liability was assumed by the buyer, resulting in no economic loss to us. The remaining $10.2 million loss was offset by cash distributions paid to us during our ownership and avoided legal costs for continued litigation. On an economic basis, we agreed to sell these entities at roughly our purchase price, adjusted for retained cash distributions and avoided legal costs.
Interest Income
Interest income for the year ended December 31, 2019, was relatively flat compared to the year ended December 31, 2018.
For the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to 2017, interest income increased $2.6 million, due primarily to interest earned on the seller financing notes received as consideration in the sale of the La Jolla Cove property.
Interest Expense
For the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to 2018, interest expense, which includes the amortization of debt issuance costs, decreased by $31.8 million due primarily to lower interest on property-level debt following refinancing and debt payoff activity, including the 2018 repayment of our term loan, a decrease in property-level debt attributable to sold communities and an increase in capitalized interest attributable to redevelopment and development communities. This decrease was offset partially by interest on property-level debt assumed in connection with our acquisitions and a $9.9 million decrease in prepayment penalties.
28
For the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to 2017, interest expense increased by $6.0 million. The increase was due primarily to debt prepayment penalties of $14.9 million incurred in connection with 2018 refinancing of property-level debt that was scheduled to mature in 2019, 2020, and 2021, offset partially by a decrease in mortgage interest expense for communities sold and the sale of the Asset Management business in July 2018, and lower corporate-level interest.
Gain on Dispositions of Real Estate and the Asset Management Business

The apartment communities sold from our portfolio during 2019, 2018, and 2017 were primarily located outside of our primary markets or in lower-rated locations within our primary markets and had average revenues per apartment home significantly below those of our retained portfolio.
Income from Unconsolidated Real Estate Partnerships
Income from unconsolidated real estate partnerships for the year ended December 31, 2019, was relatively flat compared to the year ended December 31, 2018.
For the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to 2017, income from unconsolidated real estate partnerships decreased by $7.6 million, due primarily to the derecognition of the final NAPICO property in 2017, which resulted in a gain.
Income Tax Benefit
Certain of our operations, including property management and risk management, are conducted through taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRS entities. Additionally, some of our apartment communities and 1001 Brickell Bay Drive are owned through TRS entities.
Our income tax benefit calculated in accordance with GAAP includes: (a) income taxes associated with the income or loss of our TRS entities including tax on gains on dispositions, for which the tax consequences have been realized or will be realized in future periods; (b) low income housing tax credits generated prior to the sale of our Asset Management business that offset REIT taxable income, primarily from retained capital gains; and (c) historic tax credits that offset income tax obligations of our TRS entities. Income taxes related to these items, as well as changes in valuation allowance and the establishment of incremental deferred tax items in conjunction with intercompany asset transfers (if applicable), are included in income tax benefit in our consolidated statements of operations.
For the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to 2018, income tax benefit decreased $9.9 million. The decrease is due primarily to lower tax benefit recognized in connection with the intercompany transfer of assets and release of a valuation allowance in 2018 related to sale of our Asset Management business, as well as lower tax benefit from historic tax credits. This decrease is offset partially by a lower tax provision on gains on dispositions.
For the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to 2017, income tax benefit decreased by $17.8 million. The decrease is due primarily to the reversal of a $19.3 million net tax benefit we recognized as a result of the December 2017 tax reform legislation in 2017 and higher tax expense related to gains on sale of real estate for communities held through TRS entities.
Non-GAAP Measures
Various key financial indicators we use in managing our business and in evaluating our financial condition and operating performance are non-GAAP measures. Key non-GAAP measures we use are defined and described below, and for those non-GAAP measures used or disclosed within this annual report, we provide reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures to the most comparable financial measure computed in accordance with GAAP.
29
Free Cash Flow, as calculated for our retained portfolio, represents an apartment community’s property net operating income, less spending for Capital Replacements, which represents our estimation of the capital additions made to replace capital assets consumed during our ownership period (further discussed under the Nareit Funds From Operations, Pro forma Funds From Operations, and Adjusted Funds From Operations heading). FCF margin as calculated for apartment communities sold represents the sold apartment community’s net operating income less $1,200 per apartment home of assumed annual capital replacement spending, as a percentage of the apartment community’s rental and other property revenues. Capital replacement spending represents a measure of capital asset usage during the period; therefore, we believe that FCF is useful to investors as a supplemental measure of apartment community performance because it takes into consideration costs incurred during the period to replace capital assets that have been consumed during our ownership.
Economic Income
Economic Income represents stockholder value creation as measured by the change in estimated NAV per share plus cash dividends per share. We believe Economic Income is important to investors as it represents a measure of the total return we have earned for our stockholders. NAV, as used in our calculation of Economic Income, is a non-GAAP measure and represents the estimated fair value of assets net of liabilities attributable to Aimco’s common stockholders and the Aimco Operating Partnership’s common unitholders on a diluted basis. We believe NAV is considered useful by some investors in real estate companies because the value of company assets can be readily estimated, even for non-earning assets such as land or properties under development. NAV has the advantage of incorporating the investment decisions of thousands of real estate investors. We believe it enhances comparability among companies that have differences in their accounting. Although, NAV is not identical to liquidation value in that some costs and benefits are disregarded, it is often considered a floor with upside for value ascribed to the operating platform. NAV also provides an objective basis for the perceived quality and predictability of future cash flows as well as their expected growth as these are factors considered by real estate investors.
Our estimated NAV per share and the quoted share price of Aimco Common Stock are not necessarily equal. Although we use Economic Income and NAV for comparability in assessing our value creation compared to other REITs, not all REITs publish these measures and those who do may not compute them in the same manner. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that our basis for computing these measures is comparable with that of other REITs.
We report NAV on a semiannual basis, as of the end of the first and third quarters. Economic Income for 2019 was calculated using the change in NAV per share between September 30, 2018 and 2019. NAV will fluctuate over time. This NAV information should not be relied upon as representative of the amount a stockholder could expect to receive in a liquidation event, now or in the future. Certain assets are excluded as are certain liabilities, such as taxes and transaction costs associated with a liquidation. In addition, NAV is based on management’s subjective judgments, assumptions and opinions as of the date of determination. We assume no obligation to revise or update NAV to reflect subsequent or future events or circumstances. Our NAV estimate is subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, including, without limitation, those described in Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Economic Income does not represent the change in stockholder’s equity in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, NAV does not represent stockholder’s equity in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered an alternative to Aimco’s total equity, which we believe is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. A reconciliation of NAV to Aimco’s total equity, as of September 30, 2019, is provided below (in millions, except per share data):

The number of shares of restricted stock or LTIP Units was determined based on the average of the closing trading prices of Aimco’s Common Stock on the NYSE on the five trading days up to and including the grant date, or $53.53. |
(4) | The amounts in this column reflect the number of performance-based non-qualified stock options granted pursuant to the 2020 LTI award that may vest — at threshold, target and maximum performance levels — based on relative TSR (60% of each award is based on the Company’s TSR relative to the NAREIT Apartment Index and 40% of each award is based on the Company’s TSR relative to the REIT Index) over a three-year period from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2022, with the number of underlying shares earned, if any, vesting 50% on the later of the third anniversary of the grant date or the date on which performance is measured (but no later than March 15, 2023) and 50% on the fourth anniversary of the grant date. For the portion of the performance period that occurs post-Separation, relative TSR will be determined by using the combined TSR of Aimco and AIR. |
(5) | This column represents the aggregate grant date fair value of equity awards in the year granted computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. For additional information on the valuation assumptions with respect to the grants reflected in this column, refer to the Share-Based Compensation footnote to Aimco’s consolidated financial statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the |
The amounts shown in this column include the grant date fair value of the performance-based restricted stock awards or LTIP Unit awards, as applicable, based on the probable outcome of the performance condition to which such awards are subject, which was calculated by a third-party consultant using a Monte Carlo valuation model in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. Based on the foregoing, the grant date fair value is $8.50 per LTIP Unit as to Mr. Considine’s performance-based LTI award, $8.50 per LTIP Unit as to 25% of Ms. Stanfield’s performance-based LTI award and $53.44 per LTIP Unit as to approximately 75% of Ms. Stanfield’s performance-based LTI award, and $53.88 per share for the performance-based restricted stock awards granted to each of Messrs. Powell, Beldin, and Kimmel, and Ms. Cohn that are based on relative TSR performance. The grant date fair value of the performance-based LTIP Unit awards, assuming achievement at the maximum level of performance, is $8,600,011 for Mr. Considine and $565,992 for Ms. Stanfield. The grant date fair value of the performance-based restricted stock awards, assuming achievement at the maximum level of performance, is $671,129 for Mr. Powell, $372,526 for Mr. Beldin, $1,181,050 for Ms. Cohn, and $1,006,586 for Mr. Kimmel.
The amounts shown in this column include the grant date fair value of the performance-based stock options based on the probable outcome of the performance condition to which such option is subject, which was calculated by a third-party consultant using a Monte Carlo valuation model. Based on the foregoing, the grant date fair value is $8.15 per underlying share of the options. The grant date fair value of the options, assuming achievement at the maximum level of performance, is $123,342 for Mr. Beldin, and $293,335 for Ms. Cohn.

OPTION EXERCISES AND STOCK VESTED IN 2020
The following table sets forth certain information regarding options and Adjusted Funds From Operations
Nareit FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that we believe, when considered withstock awards exercised and vested, respectively, during the financial statements determinedyear ended December 31, 2020, for the persons named in accordance with GAAP, is helpful to investors in understanding our performance because it captures features particular to real estate performance by recognizing that real estate generally appreciates over time or maintains residual value to a much greater extent than do other depreciable assets such as machinery, computers, or other personal property. Nareit defines FFO as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding: depreciation and amortization related to real estate; gains and losses from sales and impairment of depreciable assets and land used in our primary business; and income taxes directly associated with a gain or loss on the sale of real estate, and including our share of the FFO of unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated on the same basis to determine Nareit

FFO. We calculate Nareit FFO attributable to Aimco common stockholders (diluted) by subtracting dividends on preferred stock and amounts allocated from Nareit FFO to participating securities.
In addition to Nareit FFO, we compute Pro forma FFO and AFFO, which are also non-GAAP financial measures that we believe are helpful to investors in understanding our short-term performance. Pro forma FFO represents Nareit FFO attributable to Aimco common stockholders (diluted), excluding certain amounts that are unique or occur infrequently.
In computing 2019 Pro forma FFO, we made the following adjustments to Nareit FFO:

POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR CHANGE IN CONTROL
The NEOs are entitled to certain severance payments and benefits upon a qualifying termination of employment or, in the case of a change in control, double trigger accelerated vesting of equity awards in the event of a qualifying termination of employment that occurs within one year following a change in control. The terms of these arrangements are described under “CD&A — Post-Employment Compensation and Employment and Severance Arrangements — Executive Employment Arrangements, Executive Severance Arrangements and Equity Award Agreements” above.
In the table that follows, potential payments and other benefits payable upon termination of employment and change in control situations are set out as if the conditions for payments had occurred and/or the terminations took place on December 31, 2020. In setting out such payments and benefits, amounts that had already been earned as of the termination date are not shown. Also, benefits that are available to all full-time regular employees when their employment terminates are not shown. The amounts set forth below are estimates of the amounts that could be paid out to the NEOs upon their termination. The actual amounts to be paid out can only be determined at the time of such NEOs’ separation from Aimco. The following table summarizes the potential payments under various scenarios if they had occurred on December 31, 2020. None of Messrs. Powell, Considine, Beldin, or Kimmel or Mses. Stanfield, Johnson, or Cohn received any severance or similar payments or benefits in connection with the Separation.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION AND EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION
We believe that executive pay should be internally consistent and equitable to motivate our teammates to create shareholder value. In computing 2018 Pro forma FFO, we made the following adjustmentsAugust 2015, pursuant to Nareit FFO:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
AFFO represents Pro forma FFO reduced by Capital Replacements, which represent our estimationa mandate of the actual capital additions madeDodd-Frank Act, the SEC adopted a rule requiring annual disclosure of the ratio of the median employee’s annual total compensation to replace capitalthe annual total compensation of the principal executive officer. The disclosure is required for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2017. The annual total compensation for 2020 for Mr. Powell, CEO following the Separation, was $1,759,704, as reported under the heading “Summary Compensation Table.” Our median employee’s total compensation for 2020 was $147,359. As a result, we estimate that Mr. Powell’s 2020 total compensation was approximately 11.9 times that of our median employee.
Our CEO to median employee pay ratio was calculated in accordance with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K. We identified the median employee by examining 2020 total compensation, consisting of base salary, annual bonus amounts, stock-based compensation (based on the grant date fair value of awards granted during 2020) and other incentive payments for all individuals who were employed by Aimco on December 31, 2020, other than our CEO. Our measuring date of December 31 remained the same as last year. We included all active employees and annualized the compensation for any employees who were not employed by Aimco for the full 2020 calendar year. After identifying the median employee based on 2020 total compensation, we calculated annual total compensation for such employee using the same methodology we use for our NEOs as set forth in the “Total” column in the Summary Compensation Table.
DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
In formulating its recommendation for director compensation, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews director compensation for independent directors of companies in the real estate industry and companies of comparable market capitalization, revenue and assets consumed during our ownership period. When we make capital additions at an apartment community, we evaluate whetherand considers compensation trends for other NYSE-listed companies and S&P 500 companies. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also considers the additions extendrelatively small size of the useful life of an assetAimco board as compared to its condition atother boards, the time we purchasedparticipation of each Independent Director on each committee, and the apartment community. We classify as Capital Improvements those capital additions that meet this criterion,resulting workload on the directors. In addition, the Nominating and we classify as Capital Replacements those that do not. AFFO is a key financial indicator we use to evaluate our short-term operational performance and is oneCorporate Governance Committee considers the overall cost of the factors that we useBoard to determine the amounts of our dividend payments.Company and the cost per director.
Nareit FFO, Pro forma FFO, and AFFO should not be considered alternatives to net income determined in accordance with GAAP, as indications of our performance. Although we use these non-GAAP measures2020 Compensation for comparability in assessing our
32
performance compared to other REITs, not all REITs compute these same measures and those who do may not compute them in the same manner. Additionally, computation of AFFO is subject to our definition of Capital Replacement spending. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that our basis for computing these non-GAAP measures is comparable with that of other REITs.Pre-Separation Directors
For 2020, compensation for the yearspre-Separation independent directors remained consistent with their compensation for 2019. Specifically, director compensation included a fixed annual cash retainer of $90,000 and an award of 3,200 shares of fully vested Common Stock. No meeting fees were paid to independent directors for attending meetings of the Board and the committees on which they serve. For the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, Aimco’s Nareit FFO, Pro forma FFO, and AFFO are calculated2020, Aimco paid the pre-Separation directors serving on the Board during that year as follows (in thousands, except per share data):follows:

Please refer to the Results of Operations section
Compensation for discussion of our Pro forma FFO and AFFO results for 2019, as compared to 2018.
33
The Aimco Operating Partnership does not separately compute or report Nareit FFO, Pro forma FFO, or AFFO. However, based on Aimco’s method for allocation of such amounts to noncontrolling interests in the Aimco Operating Partnership, as well as limited differences between the amounts of net income attributable to Aimco’s common stockholders and the Aimco Operating Partnership’s unit holders during the periods presented, Nareit FFO, Pro forma FFO, and AFFO amounts on a per unit basis for the Aimco Operating Partnership would be expected to be substantially the same as the corresponding per share amounts for Aimco.
Leverage Ratios
As discussed under the Balance Sheet heading, our leverage strategy targets the ratio of Proportionate Debt and Preferred Equity to Adjusted EBITDAre to be below 7.0x and the ratio of Adjusted EBITDAre to Adjusted Interest Expense and Preferred Dividends to be greater than 2.5x. We believe these ratios, which are based in part on non-GAAP financial information, are commonly used by investors and analysts to assess the relative financial risk associated with companies within the same industry, and they are believed to be similar to measures used by rating agencies to assess entity credit quality.
Proportionate Debt, as used in our leverage ratios, is a non-GAAP measure and includes our share of the long-term, non-recourse property debt and outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility. Proportionate Debt excludes unamortized debt issuance costs because these amounts represent cash expended in earlier periods and do not reduce our contractual obligations. We reduce our recorded debt by the amounts of cash and restricted cash on-hand, which are primarily restricted under the terms of our property debt agreements, assuming these amounts would be used to reduce our outstanding leverage. We further reduce our recorded debt by the value of our investment in a securitization trust that holds certain of our property debt, as our payments of principal and interest associated with such property debt will ultimately repay our investments in the trust.
We believe Proportionate Debt is useful to investors as it is a measure of our net exposure to debt obligations. Proportionate Debt, as used in our leverage ratios, is calculated as set forth in the table below.
Preferred Equity, as used in our leverage ratios, represents the redemption amounts for the Aimco Operating Partnership’s preferred OP Units. Preferred Equity, although perpetual in nature, is another component of our overall leverage.Post-Separation Directors

We calculated Adjusted EBITDAre used in our leverage ratios basedSykes and Ms. Gibson, and on the most recent three month amounts, annualized. EBITDAreJanuary 27, 2021, for Messrs. Miller and Adjusted EBITDAre are non-GAAP measures, which we believe are useful to investors, creditors,Stein and rating agencies as a supplemental measure of our ability to incur and service debt because they are recognized measures of performance by the real estate industry and allow for comparison of our credit strength to different companies. EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss) as determined in accordance with GAAP as indicators of liquidity. There can be no assurance that our method of calculating EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre is comparable with that of other real estate investment trusts. Nareit defines EBITDAre as net income computed in accordance with GAAP, before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization expense, further adjusted for:

We calculate Adjusted Interest Expense, as used in our leverage ratios, based on the most recent three months, annualized. Adjusted Interest Expense is a non-GAAP measure that we believe is meaningful for investors and analysts as it presents our share of current recurring interest requirements associated with leverage. Adjusted Interest Expense represents our proportionate share of interest expense on non-recourse property debt and interest expense on our revolving credit facility borrowings. We exclude from our calculation of Adjusted Interest Expense:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Liquidity is the ability to meet present and future financial obligations. Our primary source of liquidity is cash flow from operations. Additional sources are proceeds from dispositions of apartment communities, proceeds from refinancing existing property debt, borrowings under new property debt, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, and proceeds from equity offerings.
As of December 31, 2019, our primary sources of liquidity were as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
Our principal uses for liquidity include normal operating activities, payments of principal and interest on outstanding property debt, capital expenditures, dividends paid to stockholders, distributions paid to noncontrolling interest partners, and acquisitions of apartment communities. We use our cash and cash equivalents and our cash provided by operating activities to meet short-term liquidity needs. In the event that our cash and cash equivalents and cash provided by operating activities are not sufficient to cover our short-term liquidity needs, we have additional means, such as short-term borrowing availability and proceeds from apartment community sales and refinancings. We may use our revolving credit facility for working capital and other short-term purposes, such as funding investments on an interim basis. We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements, such as debt maturities, redevelopment spending, and apartment community acquisitions, through primarily non-recourse, long-term borrowings, the issuance of equity securities (including OP Units), the sale of apartment communities, and cash generated from operations.
As of December 31, 2019, we also held unencumbered apartment communities with an estimated fair market value of approximately $2.4 billion.
Leverage and Capital Resources
The availability of credit and its related effect on the overall economy may affect our liquidity and future financing activities, both through changes in interest rates and access to financing. Currently, interest rates are low compared to historical levels and many lenders are active in the market. However, any adverse changes in the lending environment could negatively affect our liquidity. We believe we have mitigated much of this exposure by reducing our short and intermediate term maturity risk through refinancing such loans with long-dated, fixed-rate property debt. However, if property financing options become unavailable for our future debt needs, we may consider alternative sources of liquidity, such as reductions in capital spending or proceeds from apartment community dispositions.
36
Two credit rating agencies rate our creditworthiness and both have rated our credit and outlook as BBB- (stable), an investment grade rating. Our investment grade rating would be useful in accessing capital through the sale of bonds in private or public transactions. However, our intention and historical practice has been to raise debt capital in the form of property-level, non-recourse, long-dated, fixed-rate, amortizing debt, the cost of which is generally less than that of recourse debt and the terms of which also provide for greater balance sheet safety.
As of December 31, 2019, approximately 91.8% of our leverage consisted of property-level, non-recourse, long-dated, amortizing debt. Approximately 96.0% of our property-level debt is fixed-rate, which provides a hedge against increases in interest rates, capitalization rates, and inflation. The weighted-average remaining term to maturity of our property-level debt was 7.5 years. On average, 7.4% of our unpaid principal balances will mature each year from 2020 through 2022.
During 2019, we financed $772.6 million of new non-recourse, fixed-rate property debt. These loans have a weighted-average interest rate of 3.32%, a weighted-average remaining term to maturity of 11.4 years, and contributed to an approximately 29 basis point decrease in our annual cost of leverage compared to 2018.
While our primary source of leverage is property-level, non-recourse, long-dated, fixed-rate, amortizing debt, we also have a revolving credit facility with a syndicate of financial institutions. As of December 31, 2019, we had $275.0 million of outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility, which represented 6.0% of our total leverage.
As of December 31, 2019, our outstanding preferred OP units represented approximately 2.1% of our total leverage. Preferred OP units are redeemable at the holder’s option; however, for illustrative purposes, we compute the weighted-average maturity of our total leverage assuming a 10-year maturity on the units.
The combination of non-recourse property-level debt, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, preferred OP units, and redeemable noncontrolling interests in a consolidated real estate partnership comprise our total leverage. The weighted-average remaining term to maturity for our total leverage described above was 7.3 years as of December 31, 2019.
Under the revolving credit facility, we have agreed to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage ratio of 1.40x, as well as other covenants customary for similar revolving credit arrangements. For the year ended December 31, 2019, our Fixed Charge Coverage ratio was 2.06x, compared to ratio of 2.05x for the year ended December 31, 2018. We expect to remain in compliance with this covenant during the next 12 months.
We like the discipline of financing our investments in real estate through the use of fixed-rate, amortizing, non-recourse property debt, as the amortization gradually reduces our leverage and reduces our refunding risk, and the fixed-rate provides a hedge against increases in interest rates, and the non-recourse feature avoids entity risk.
Changes in Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
The following discussion relates to changes in consolidated cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash due to operating, investing, and financing activities, which are presented in our consolidated statements of cash flows in Item 8 of this report.
Operating Activities
For the year ended December 31, 2019, our net cash provided by operating activities was $374.5 million. Our operating cash flow is affected primarily by rental rates, occupancy levels, and operating expenses related to our portfolio of apartment communities. Cash provided by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2019, decreased by $21.9 million compared to 2018, due to lower net operating income associated with communities sold and the Asset Management business sold in 2018, offset partially by improved operating results of our Same Store communities and increased contribution from our Acquisition and Other Real Estate communities.
Investing Activities
For the year ended December 31, 2019, net cash used in investing activities of $205.4 million consisted primarily of the cash payment for the mezzanine loan and related transaction costs, the acquisitions of 1001 Brickell Bay Drive, One Ardmore, and Prism, and capital expenditures, offset partially by proceeds from the disposition of 12 apartment communities.
Capital additions for our segments totaled $396.0 million, $329.3 million, and $310.5 million during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, respectively. We generally fund capital additions with cash provided by operating activities and cash proceeds from sales of apartment communities.
37
We categorize capital spending for communities in our portfolio broadly into seven primary categories:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We exclude the amounts of capital spending related to commercial spaces and to apartment communities sold or classified as held for sale at the end of the period from the foregoing measures. We have also excluded from these measures indirect capitalized costs, which are not yet allocated to communities with capital additions, and their related capital spending categories.
A summary of the capital spending for these categories, along with a reconciliation of the total for these categories to the capital expenditures reported in the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, are presented below (dollars in thousands):

For the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, we capitalized $11.8 million, $7.6 million, and $7.6 million of interest costs, respectively, and $37.8 million, $36.8 million, and $36.0 million of other direct and indirect costs, respectively.
Redevelopment and Development
As of December 31, 2019, our total estimated net investment in approved and active redevelopment and development is $577.5 million, with a projected weighted-average net operating income yield on these investments of 5.3%, assuming untrended rents. Of this total, we have funded $309.2 million as of December 31, 2019. We expect to fund the remaining estimated net investment of $268.3 million on these communities in 2020 and future years, on a leverage-neutral basis, with proceeds from sales of apartment communities with lower forecasted FCF internal rates of return.
38
We execute redevelopments using a range of approaches. We prefer to limit risk by executing redevelopments using a short-cycle approach, in which we renovate an apartment community in stages. Shorter cycles provide us the flexibility to maintain current earnings while aligning the timing of the completed apartment homes with market demand. We currently have six short-cycle projects, including Bay Parc, ongoing in our portfolio. During 2019, we completed 150 apartment homes, with another 21 homes under construction as of December 31, 2019.
When short-cycle redevelopments are not possible, we may engage in redevelopment activities where an entire building or community is vacated. Additionally, we undertake some ground-up development when warranted by risk-adjusted investment returns, either directly or in connection with the redevelopment of an existing apartment community. The following table summarizes our investments related to these long-cycle developments and redevelopments as of December 31, 2019 (dollars in millions):

During the year ended December 31, 2019, we invested $229.8 million in redevelopment and development. Further details regarding our redevelopment and development activities, including apartment communities constructed and delivered during the year ended December 31, 2019, is discussed in the Executive Overview section above.
We expect our total development and redevelopment spending to range from $250 million to $300 million for the year ending December 31, 2020.
Financing Activities
For the year ended December 31, 2019, our net cash used in financing activities of $64.0 million was attributed to the items discussed below.
Net borrowings on our revolving credit facility of $114.6 million primarily relate to the timing of short-term working capital needs.
Principal payments on property loans during the period totaled $520.0 million, consisting of scheduled principal amortization of $79.7 million and repayments of $440.3 million.
Proceeds from non-recourse property debt borrowings during the period consisted of the closing of 10 fixed-rate, amortizing, non-recourse property loans totaling $774.6 million.
Repurchases of Preferred Stock of $125.0 million represents the cash paid upon redemption of our Class A Perpetual Preferred Stock during the 2019.
Net cash used in financing activities also includes $266.2 million of payments to equity holders, as further detailed in the table below.

In addition to the amounts presented in the table above, as of December 31, 2019, we had $97.1 million (liquidation value) of redeemable preferred OP Units of the Aimco Operating Partnership outstanding with annual distribution yields ranging from 1.92% to 8.75%. The distributions that accrue on the redeemable preferred OP Units are cumulative and are paid quarterly.
Additionally, we may enter into commitments to purchase goods and services in connection with the operations of our apartment communities. Those commitments generally have terms of one year or less and reflect expenditure levels comparable to our historical expenditures.
Future Capital Needs
In addition to the items set forth in “Contractual Obligations” above, we expect to fund any future acquisitions, redevelopment, development, and other capital spending principally with proceeds from apartment community sales, short-term borrowings, debt and equity financing, and operating cash flows. Our near-term business plan does not contemplate the issuance of equity.
40
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions. We believe that the following critical accounting policies involve our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
Capitalized Costs
We capitalize costs, including certain indirect costs, incurred in connection with our capital additions activities, including redevelopments and developments, other tangible apartment community improvements, and replacements of existing community components. Included in these capitalized costs are payroll costs associated with time spent by employees in connection with the planning, execution, and control of all capital addition activities at the community level. We characterize as “indirect costs” an allocation of certain department costs, including payroll, at the area operations and corporate levels that clearly relate to capital addition activities. We also capitalize interest, property taxes, and insurance during periods in which redevelopments and developments are in progress. We commence capitalization of costs, including certain indirect costs, incurred in connection with our capital addition activities, at the point in time when activities necessary to get communities ready for their intended use begin. These activities include when communities or apartment homes are undergoing physical construction, as well as when homes are held vacant in advance of planned construction, provided that other activities such as permitting, planning, and design are in progress. We cease the capitalization of costs when the communities or components thereof are substantially complete and ready for their intended use, which is typically when construction has been completed and homes are available for occupancy. We charge costs including ordinary repairs, maintenance and resident turnover costs to property operating expense, as incurred. Please refer to the Investing Activities subsection to the Liquidity and Capital Resources section for a summary of costs capitalized during the periods presented.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Real estate and other long-lived assets to be held and used are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization, unless the carrying amount of the asset is not recoverable. If events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an apartment community may not be recoverable, we make an assessment of its recoverability by comparing the carrying amount to our estimate of the undiscounted future cash flows, excluding interest charges, of the community. If the carrying amount exceeds the estimated aggregate undiscounted future cash flows, we recognize an impairment loss to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the community.
As part of our portfolio strategy, we seek to sell up to 10% of our portfolio annually and to reinvest the proceeds from such sales in accretive uses such as capital enhancements, redevelopments, occasional developments, and selective acquisitions with projected FCF internal rates of return higher than expected from the communities being sold. As we execute this strategy, we evaluate alternatives to sell or reduce our interest in apartment communities that do not align with our long-term investment strategy, although there is no assurance that we will sell or reduce our investment in such communities during the desired time frame. For any communities that are sold or meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale during the next 12 months, the reduction in the estimated holding period for these communities may result in impairment losses.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our chief market risks are refunding risk, that is the availability of property debt or other cash sources to refund maturing property debt, and repricing risk, that is the possibility of increases in base interest rates and credit risk spreads. We use predominantly long-dated, fixed-rate, amortizing, non-recourse property debt in order to avoid the refunding and repricing risks of short-term borrowings. We use short-term debt financing and working capital primarily to fund short-term uses and generally expect to refinance such borrowings with cash from operating activities, proceeds from apartment community sales, long-term debt, or equity financings. We make limited use of derivative financial instruments and we do not use them for trading or other speculative purposes.
Market Risk Associated with Loans Secured by Our Portfolio
As of December 31, 2019, on a consolidated basis, we had approximately $170.1 million of variable-rate property-level debt outstanding and $275.0 million of variable-rate borrowings under our revolving credit facility. We estimate that a change in 30-day LIBOR of 100 basis points with constant credit risk spreads would reduce or increase interest expense by approximately $4.5 million on an annual basis.
As of December 31, 2019, we had approximately $177.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, a portion of which bears interest at variable rates, which may offset somewhat a change in rates on our variable-rate debt discussed above.
41
We estimate the fair value of debt instruments as described in Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements in Item 8. The estimated fair value of total indebtedness, including our revolving credit facility, was approximately $4.6 billion as of December 31, 2019, inclusive of a $47.3 million mark-to-market liability. The mark-to-market liability as of December 31, 2018 was approximately $43.8 million.
If market rates for consolidated fixed-rate debt in our portfolio were higher by 100 basis points with constant credit risk spreads, the estimated fair value of consolidated debt discussed above would decrease from $4.6 billion in the aggregate to $4.4 billion. If market rates for consolidated debt discussed above were lower by 100 basis points with constant credit risk spreads, the estimated fair value of consolidated fixed-rate debt would increase from $4.6 billion in the aggregate to $4.8 billion.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
The information required by this item is presented under the caption “CertainCertain Relationships and Related Transactions”Transactions
Policies and “CorporateProcedures for Review, Approval or Ratification of Related Person Transactions
Aimco recognizes that related person transactions can present potential or actual conflicts of interest and create the appearance that Aimco’s decisions are based on considerations other than the best interests of Aimco and its stockholders. Accordingly, as a general matter, it is Aimco’s preference to avoid related person transactions. Nevertheless, Aimco recognizes that there are situations where related person transactions may be in, or may not be inconsistent with, the best interests of Aimco and its stockholders. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Matters - Committee, pursuant to a written policy approved by the Board, has oversight for related person transactions. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will review transactions, arrangements or relationships in which (1) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $100,000 in any calendar year, (2) Aimco (or any Aimco entity) is a participant, and (3) any related party has or will have a direct or indirect interest (other than an interest arising solely as a result of being a director of another corporation or organization that is a party to the transaction or a less than 10 percent beneficial owner of another entity that is a party to the transaction). The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has also given its standing approval for certain types of related person transactions such as certain employment arrangements, director compensation, transactions with another entity in which a related person’s interest is only by virtue of a non-executive employment relationship or limited equity position, and transactions in which all stockholders receive pro rata benefits.
Sublease of a Portion of Aimco Office Space
On January 25, 2019, Aimco entered into a sublease agreement (the “Sublease”) with an entity in which Mr. Considine has sole voting and investment power. Under this agreement, Aimco has subleased to said entity approximately 2,957 square feet of office space within the same building as Aimco’s corporate headquarters, and consisting of excess space not needed by Aimco, on exactly the same terms as Aimco leases the space. The Sublease does not provide any benefit to the entity, as other space in the building requires comparable rent. The Sublease provides some benefit to Aimco as it gives Aimco a head start on putting that space to productive use. The entity has a lease term less favorable than Aimco’s lease with the landlord, in that Aimco has the option to terminate the Sublease at any time, for any or no reason, upon six months’ notice. The Sublease has a term that began on April 1, 2019, and ends on April 30, 2029, the same term as the Aimco lease. The annual amount of rent in the first year was $78,361, subject to annual increases. The aggregate amount of rent expected to be paid under the Sublease, assuming the entire lease term is fulfilled, is approximately $850,000. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviewed the Sublease and determined that it is in the best interests of Aimco and its stockholders.
Related Person Transactions
In November 2019, Aimco confirmed an arrangement with Richard M. Powell, of R.M. Powell & Co., a contractor for Aimco since 1997 and father of Mr. Wes Powell, Director, President and CEO. Depending on the success of potential transactions identified by Mr. Richard Powell, he may earn fees in amounts in excess of $120,000. Pursuant to the Company’s related party transactions policy, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviewed and approved the arrangement with Mr. Richard Powell.
In March 2020, Elizabeth Likovich, the daughter of Mr. Considine, Director, became a full-time employee of the Company, and her compensation is in excess of $120,000. Prior to joining Aimco, Ms. Likovich held a similar position at a peer apartment company. Pursuant to the policy noted above, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviewed and approved the employment of Ms. Likovich.
Independence of Directors”Directors
The Board has determined that to be considered independent, an outside director may not have a direct or indirect material relationship with Aimco or its subsidiaries (directly or as a partner, stockholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with the Company). A material relationship is one that impairs or inhibits, or has the potential to impair or inhibit, a director’s exercise of critical and disinterested judgment on behalf of Aimco and its stockholders. In determining whether a material relationship exists, the Board considers all relevant facts and circumstances, including whether the director or a family member is a current or former employee of the Company, family member relationships, compensation, business relationships and payments, and charitable contributions between Aimco and an entity with which a director is affiliated (as an executive officer, partner or substantial stockholder). The Board consults with the Company’s counsel to ensure that such determinations are consistent with all relevant securities and other laws and regulations regarding the definition of “independent director,” including but not limited to those categorical standards set forth in Section 303A.02 of the proxy statement for Aimco’s 2020 annual meetinglisting standards of stockholdersthe New York Stock Exchange as in effect from time to time.
Consistent with these considerations, the pre-Separation Board affirmatively determined that Messrs. Keltner, Miller, Murphy, Rayis, and is incorporated herein by reference.Stein and Mses. Nelson, Sperling, and Tran were independent directors, and the post-Separation Board affirmatively has determined that Messrs. Allen, Leupp, Miller, Stein, Stone, and Sykes and Mses. Gibson and Smith are independent directors.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of
Apartment Investment and Management Company
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Apartment Investment and Management Company (the Company) as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2019, 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, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2019, 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, 2019, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) and our report dated February 24, 2020 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Adoption of New Accounting Standard
As discussed in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed its accounting for the income tax consequences of intercompany transfers of assets effective January 1, 2017.
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) relates 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 it relates.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Partners and the Board of Directors of
AIMCO Properties, L.P.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of AIMCO Properties, L.P. (the Partnership) as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2019, 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 Partnership at December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2019, 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 Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2019, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) and our report dated February 24, 2020 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Adoption of New Accounting Standard
As discussed in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements, the Partnership changed its accounting for the income tax consequences of intercompany transfers of assets effective January 1, 2017.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Partnership’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 Partnership 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.
|
We have served as the Partnership’s auditor since 1994.

APARTMENT INVESTMENT AND MANAGEMENT COMPANY
AIMCO PROPERTIES, L.P.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2019
Note 1 — Organization
Apartment Investment and Management Company, or Aimco, is a Maryland corporation incorporated on January 10, 1994. Aimco is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust, or REIT. AIMCO Properties, L.P., or the Aimco Operating Partnership, is a Delaware limited partnership formed on May 16, 1994, to conduct our business, which is focused on the ownership, management, redevelopment and some development of quality apartment communities located in several of the largest markets in the United States.
Aimco, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, AIMCO-GP, Inc. and AIMCO-LP Trust, holds a majority of the ownership interests in the Aimco Operating Partnership. Aimco conducts all of its business and owns all of its assets through the Aimco Operating Partnership. Interests in the Aimco Operating Partnership that are held by limited partners other than Aimco are referred to as OP Units. OP Units include common partnership units, which we refer to as common OP Units, as well as preferred partnership units, which we refer to as preferred OP Units. As of December 31, 2019, after elimination of units held by consolidated subsidiaries, the Aimco Operating Partnership had 158,419,051 common OP Units outstanding. As of December 31, 2019, Aimco owned 148,885,197, or 94.0%, of the common OP Units of the Aimco Operating Partnership and Aimco had an equal number of shares of its Class A Common Stock outstanding, which we refer to as Common Stock.
Except as the context otherwise requires, “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Aimco, the Aimco Operating Partnership and their consolidated subsidiaries, collectively.
We own and operate a portfolio of apartment communities, diversified by both geography and price point, in 17 states and the District of Columbia. As of December 31, 2019, our portfolio included 124 apartment communities with 32,839 apartment homes in which we held an average ownership of approximately 99%. We consolidated 120 of these apartment communities with 32,697 apartment homes.
Note 2 — Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
Aimco’s accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Aimco, the Aimco Operating Partnership and their consolidated subsidiaries. The Aimco Operating Partnership’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Aimco Operating Partnership and its consolidated subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
We consolidate a variable interest entity, or VIE, in which we are considered the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the entity that has (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, Aimco consolidated 6 and 9 VIEs, respectively, including the Aimco Operating Partnership.
As used herein, and except where the context otherwise requires, “partnership” refers to a limited partnership or a limited liability company and “partner” refers to a partner in a limited partnership or a member of a limited liability company.
Noncontrolling Interests in the Aimco Operating Partnership
Noncontrolling interests in Aimco Operating Partnership consist of common OP Units and preferred OP Units and are reflected in Aimco’s accompanying consolidated balance sheets as noncontrolling interests in Aimco Operating Partnership. Holders of preferred OP Units participate in the Aimco Operating Partnership’s income or loss only to the extent of their preferred distributions. Within Aimco’s consolidated financial statements, after provision for preferred OP Unit distributions, the Aimco Operating Partnership’s income or loss is allocated to the holders of common OP Units based on the weighted-average number of common OP Units (including those held by Aimco) outstanding during the period. During the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, the holders of common OP Units had a weighted-average ownership interest in the Aimco Operating Partnership of 6.0%, 4.9%, and 4.5%, respectively. Please refer to Note 8 for further information regarding the items comprising noncontrolling interests in the Aimco Operating Partnership. Substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Aimco are those of the Aimco Operating Partnership.
Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Real Estate Partnerships
We generally report the unaffiliated partners’ interests in the net assets of our consolidated real estate partnerships as noncontrolling interests in consolidated real estate partnerships within consolidated equity and partners’ capital. If a real estate partnership includes redemption rights that are not within Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership’s control, the
F-17
noncontrolling interest is included as temporary equity or temporary capital. If the redemption right is not currently redeemable but probable of being redeemable in the future, changes in redemption value are recognized each quarter with the change in value being reflected in additional paid-in-capital.
The assets of real estate partnerships consolidated by the Aimco Operating Partnership must first be used to settle the liabilities of such consolidated real estate partnerships. These consolidated real estate partnerships’ creditors do not have recourse to the general credit of the Aimco Operating Partnership.
Noncontrolling interests in consolidated real estate partnerships consist primarily of equity interests held by limited partners in consolidated real estate partnerships that have finite lives. We generally attribute to noncontrolling interests their share of income or loss of consolidated partnerships based on their proportionate interest in the results of operations of the partnerships, including their share of losses even if such attribution results in a deficit noncontrolling interest balance within our equity and partners’ capital accounts.
The terms of the related partnership agreements generally require the partnerships to be liquidated following the sale of the underlying real estate. As the general partner in these partnerships, we ordinarily control the execution of real estate sales and other events that could lead to the liquidation, redemption or other settlement of noncontrolling interests.
Changes in our ownership interest in consolidated real estate partnerships generally consist of our purchase of an additional interest in or the sale of our entire interest in a consolidated real estate partnership. The effect on our equity and partners’ capital of our purchase of additional interests in consolidated real estate partnerships during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, is shown in our consolidated statements of equity and partners’ capital. The effect on our equity and partners’ capital of sales of consolidated real estate or sales of our entire interest in consolidated real estate partnerships is reflected in our consolidated financial statements as gains or losses on dispositions of real estate and accordingly the effect on our equity and partners’ capital is reflected within the amount of net income allocated to us and to noncontrolling interests. Upon our deconsolidation of a real estate partnership following the sale of our partnership interests or liquidation of the partnership following sale of the related apartment community, we derecognize any remaining noncontrolling interest of the associated partnership previously recorded in our consolidated balance sheets.
Investments in Unconsolidated Real Estate Partnerships
We own general and limited partner interests in partnerships that either directly, or through interests in other real estate partnerships, own apartment communities. We generally account for investments in real estate partnerships that we do not consolidate under the equity method. Under the equity method, we recognize our share of the earnings or losses of the entity for the periods presented, inclusive of our share of any impairments and disposition gains or losses recognized by and related to such entities, and we present such amounts within income from unconsolidated real estate partnerships in our consolidated statements of operations.
The excess of our cost of the acquired partnership interests over our share of the partners’ equity or deficit is generally ascribed to the fair values of land and buildings owned by the partnerships. We amortize the excess cost ascribed to the buildings over the related estimated useful lives. Such amortization is recorded as an adjustment of the amounts of earnings or losses we recognize from such unconsolidated real estate partnerships.
We may also originate loans for real estate acquisitions or developments where we either expect, or have the opportunity, to participate in the residual profits from such projects. When the risks and rewards of these arrangements are similar to an equity investor or joint venture partner, we account for these arrangements as real estate investments using the equity method of accounting. We recognize as income changes in our share of net assets, adjusted for any basis differential, in mezzanine investment income, net, in our consolidated statements of operations.
Real Estate
Acquisitions
Upon the acquisition of real estate, we determine whether the purchase qualifies as an asset acquisition or, less frequently, meets the definition of an acquisition of a business. We generally recognize the acquisition of apartment communities or interests in partnerships that own communities at our cost, including the related transaction costs, as asset acquisitions.
We allocate the cost of apartment communities acquired based on the relative fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The fair value of these assets and liabilities is determined using valuation techniques that rely on Level 2 and Level 3 inputs within the fair value framework. We determine the fair value of tangible assets, such as land, buildings, furniture, fixtures and equipment using valuation techniques that consider comparable market transactions, replacement costs and other available information. We determine the fair value of identified intangible assets or liabilities, which typically relate to in-place leases, using valuation techniques that consider the terms of the in-place leases, current market data for comparable leases and our experience in leasing similar communities.
F-18
The intangible assets or liabilities related to in-place leases are comprised of: (a) the value of the above- and below-market leases in-place, measured over the period, including probable lease renewals for below-market leases, that the leases are expected to remain in effect; (b) the estimated unamortized portion of avoided leasing commissions and other costs thatordinarily would be incurred to originate the in-place leases; and (c) the value associated with leased apartment homes during an estimated absorption period, which estimates rental revenue that would not have been earned had leased apartment homes been vacant at the time of acquisition, assuming lease-up periods based on market demand and stabilized occupancy levels. The above- and below-market lease intangibles are amortized to rental revenue over the expected remaining terms of the associated leases, which include reasonably assured renewal periods. Other intangible assets related to in-place leases are amortized to depreciation and amortization over the expected remaining terms of the associated leases.
Capital Additions
We capitalize costs, including certain indirect costs, incurred in connection with our capital additions activities, including redevelopments, developments, other tangible apartment community improvements, and replacements of existing apartment community components. Included in these capitalized costs are payroll costs associated with time spent by employees in connection with capital additions activities at the apartment community level. We characterize as “indirect costs” an allocation of certain department costs, including payroll, at the area operations and corporate levels that clearly relate to capital additions activities. We also capitalize interest, property taxes, and insurance during periods in which construction projects are in progress. We begin capitalization of costs, including certain indirect costs, incurred in connection with our capital addition activities, upon commencement of activities necessary to ready apartment communities for their intended use. These activities include when apartment communities or apartment homes are undergoing physical construction, as well as when homes are held vacant in advance of planned construction, provided that other activities such as permitting, planning and design are in progress. We cease the capitalization of costs when the apartment communities are substantially complete and ready for their intended use, which is typically when construction has been substantially completed and apartment homes are available for occupancy. Costs, including ordinary repairs, maintenance, and resident turnover costs, are charged to property operating expense as incurred.
For the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, we capitalized to buildings and improvements $11.8 million, $7.6 million, and $7.6 million of interest costs, respectively, and $37.8 million, $36.8 million, and $36.0 million of other direct and indirect costs, respectively.
Gain or Loss on Dispositions
Gain or loss on real estate dispositions are recognized when we no longer hold a controlling financial interest in the real estate and sufficient consideration has been received. Upon disposition, the related assets and liabilities are derecognized, and the gain or loss on disposition is recognized as the difference between the carrying amount of those assets and liabilities and the value of consideration received.
Impairment
Real estate and other long-lived assets to be held and used are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization, unless the carrying amount of the asset is not recoverable. If events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an apartment community may not be recoverable, we assess its recoverability by comparing the carrying amount to our estimate of the undiscounted future cash flows, excluding interest charges, of the community. If the carrying amount exceeds the aggregate undiscounted future cash flows, we recognize an impairment loss to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the community. As a result of our analysis, we did not recognize an impairment of our real estate and other long-lived assets to be held and used during the year ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. During the year ended December 31, 2017 we recognized an impairment related to our La Jolla Cove property, which we sold in 2018.
Cash Equivalents
We classify highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as cash equivalents. We maintain cash equivalents in financial institutions in excess of insured limits. We have not experienced any losses in these accounts in the past and believe that we are not exposed to significant credit risk because our accounts are deposited with major financial institutions.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash includes capital replacement reserves, completion repair reserves, bond sinking fund amounts, real estate tax and insurance escrow accounts held by lenders and resident security deposits.

Investments in Securitization Trust that holds Aimco Property Debt
We hold investments in a securitization trust that primarily holds certain of our property debt. These investments were initially recognized at their purchase price and the discount to the face value is being accreted into interest income over the expected term of the securities. We have designated these investments as available for sale, or AFS, debt securities and we measure these investments at fair value with changes in their fair value, other than the changes attributed to the accretion described above, recognized as an adjustment of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss within equity and partners’ capital. Please refer to Note 12 for further information regarding these debt securities.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, net
As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, other assets included goodwill associated with our reportable segments of $37.8 million. We perform an annual impairment test of goodwill by evaluating qualitative factors to determine the likelihood that goodwill may be impaired. As a result of the qualitative analysis, we do not believe our goodwill is impaired as of the date of our annual test.
Deferred Costs
We defer, as debt issuance costs, lender fees and other direct costs incurred in obtaining new financing and amortize the amounts over the terms of the related loan agreements. In connection with the modification of existing financing arrangements, we defer lender fees and amortize these costs and any unamortized debt issuance costs over the term of the modified loan agreement. Debt issuance costs associated with our revolving credit facility are included in other assets in our consolidated balance sheets. Debt issuance costs associated with non-recourse property debt are presented as a direct deduction from the related liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. When financing arrangements are repaid or otherwise extinguished prior to maturity, unamortized debt issuance costs are written off, additionally, any lender fees or other costs incurred in connection with the extinguishment are recognized as expense. Amortization and write-off of debt issuance costs and other extinguishment costs are included in interest expense in our consolidated statements of operations.
We defer leasing costs incremental to a lease that we would not have incurred if the contract had not been obtained. Amortization of these costs is included in depreciation and amortization.
Revenue from Leases
We are a lessor primarily for residential leases. We also own approximately 1.1 million square feet of commercial space across our portfolio.
In 2019 we adopted ASC 842, Leases. The adoption of the standard did not affect the accounting for leases in our position as lessor, except for how we recognize costs incurred to obtain residential leases. Please refer to the Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in the Current Year heading below for further information about this standard.
Our operating leases with residents may also provide that the resident reimburse us for certain costs, primarily the resident’s share of utilities expenses, incurred by the apartment community. These reimbursements represent revenue attributable to nonlease components for which the timing and pattern of recognition is the same as the revenue for the lease components. We adopted the practical expedient that allows us to account for the lease and nonlease components as a single component. Reimbursement and related expense are presented on a gross basis in our consolidated statements of operations, with the reimbursement included in rental and other property revenues attributable to real estate in our consolidated statements of operations. We recognize rental revenue attributed to lease components, net of any concessions, on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
F-20
Asset Management Business
Prior to the July 2018 sale of our Asset Management business, we provided asset management and other services to certain consolidated partnerships owning apartment communities that qualify for low-income housing tax credits and are structured to provide for the pass-through of tax credits and tax deductions to their partners. We consolidated those low-income housing tax credit partnerships in which we were the sole general partner and decision maker of the partnerships. We recognized income from asset management and other services when the related fees were earned and realized or realizable.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation for all tangible assets is calculated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Acquired buildings and improvements are depreciated over a useful life based on the age, condition, and other physical characteristics of the asset. Furniture, fixtures, and equipment are generally depreciated over five years.
We depreciate capitalized costs using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the related improvement, which is generally 5, 15, or 30 years. We also capitalize payroll and other indirect costs incurred in connection with preparing an asset for its intended used. These costs include corporate-level costs that clearly relate to the capital addition activities, which we allocate to the applicable assets. All capitalized payroll costs and indirect costs are allocated to capital additions proportionately based on direct costs and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of such capital additions.
Purchased software and other costs related to software purchased or developed for internal use are capitalized during the application development stage and are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software, generally three to five years. Purchased equipment is recognized at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset, which is generally five years. Leasehold improvements are also recorded at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the asset’s estimated useful life or the term of the related lease.
Certain homogeneous items that are purchased in bulk on a recurring basis, such as appliances, are depreciated using group methods that reflect the average estimated useful life of the items in each group. Except in the case of apartment community casualties, where the net book value of the lost asset is written off in the determination of casualty gains or losses, we generally do not recognize any loss in connection with the replacement of an existing apartment community component because normal replacements are considered in determining the estimated useful lives used in connection with our composite and group depreciation methods.
Insurance
We believe our insurance coverages insure our apartment communities adequately against the risk of loss attributable to fire, earthquake, hurricane, tornado, flood, and other perils. In addition, we have third-party insurance coverage (after self-insured retentions) that defray the costs of large workers’ compensation, health, and general liability exposures. We accrue losses based upon our estimates of the aggregate liability for uninsured losses incurred using certain actuarial assumptions followed in the insurance industry and based on our experience.
Share-Based Compensation
We issue various forms of share-based compensation, including stock options and restricted stock awards with service conditions and/or market conditions. We recognize share-based employee compensation based on the fair value on the grant date and recognize compensation cost over the awards’ requisite service periods. We reduce compensation cost related to forfeited awards in the period of forfeiture. Please refer to Note 9 for further discussion of our share-based compensation.
Income Taxes
Aimco has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 1994, and it intends to continue to operate in such a manner. Aimco’s current and continuing qualification as a REIT depends on its ability to meet the various requirements imposed by the Internal Revenue Code, which are related to organizational structure, distribution levels, diversity of stock ownership and certain restrictions with regard to owned assets and categories of income. If Aimco qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it will generally not be subject to United States federal corporate income tax on its taxable income that is currently distributed to stockholders. This treatment substantially eliminates the “double taxation” (at the corporate and stockholder levels) that generally results from an investment in a corporation.
Even if Aimco qualifies as a REIT, it may be subject to United States federal income and excise taxes in various situations, such as on undistributed income. Aimco also will be required to pay a 100% tax on any net income on non-arm’s length transactions between it and a TRS (described below) and on any net income from sales of apartment communities that were held for sale in the ordinary course. The state and local tax laws may not conform to the United States federal income tax treatment, and Aimco may be subject to state or local taxation in various state or local jurisdictions, including those in which we transact business. Any taxes imposed on us reduce our operating cash flow and net income.
F-21
Certain of our operations or a portion thereof, including property management and risk management, are conducted through taxable REIT subsidiaries, which are subsidiaries of the Aimco Operating Partnership, and each of which we refer to as a TRS. A TRS is a subsidiary C-corporation that has not elected REIT status and, as such, is subject to United States federal corporate income tax. We use TRS entities to facilitate our ability to offer certain services and activities to our residents and investment partners that cannot be offered directly by a REIT. We also use TRS entities to hold investments in certain apartment communities.
For our TRS entities, deferred income taxes result from temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for United States federal income tax purposes, and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences reverse. We reduce deferred tax assets by recording a valuation allowance when we determine, based on available evidence, that it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. We recognize the tax consequences associated with intercompany transfers between the Aimco Operating Partnership and TRS entities when such transactions occur. Please refer to Note 10 for further information about our income taxes.
Earnings per Share and Unit
Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership calculate earnings per share and unit based on the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock or common partnership units, participating securities, common stock or common unit equivalents and dilutive convertible securities outstanding during the period. The Aimco Operating Partnership considers both common partnership units and equivalents, which have identical rights to distributions and undistributed earnings, to be common units for purposes of the earnings per unit computations. Please refer to Note 11 for further information regarding earnings per share and unit computations.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts included in the financial statements and accompanying notes thereto. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications and Revisions
On February 20, 2019, Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership effected a reverse split of Common Stock and common partnership units, respectively, at a ratio of one share or unit for every 1.03119 shares or units outstanding on the date of effectiveness. The accounting guidance for recapitalization events requires that we revise Aimco’s equity and the Aimco Operating Partnership’s partners’ capital as if the reverse split had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented. As such, we have revised the outstanding share and unit counts, presentation of share and unit activity, and earnings per share and unit, as if the reverse split had occurred on December 31, 2016.
Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in the Current Year
Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted ASC 842 issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB. We elected to adopt the new standard using practical expedients that do not require a look back to expired or existing contracts for embedded leases, allow us to retain the classification of existing leases, and allow us to retain the previous accounting for the initial direct costs of existing leases. As both a lessee and a lessor, we also elected to use the practical expedient that allows us to combine revenue attributable to nonlease components with associated lease components where the timing and pattern of transfer of the components are the same. Under the new standard, a contract is or contains a lease when it provides the right to control the use of an asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
Lessor accounting remains largely unchanged other than how we recognize costs incurred to obtain leases. Under ASC 842, we defer leasing costs incremental to a lease that we would not have incurred if the contract had not been obtained. As a result of the practical expedient related to the combination of revenue from nonlease and lease components described above, we will combine rent payments with payments for other services we provide to our residents, including residents’ reimbursement of utility expenses. We have adopted the standard using the optional transition method that allows for prior reporting periods to remain as originally presented. Please refer to Note 4.
In 2018, the Securities Exchange Commission, or SEC, amended its rules to eliminate, modify, or integrate into other SEC requirements certain disclosure rules. The amendments are intended to simplify compliance without significantly changing the total mix of information provided to investors. The amendments created a requirement to report dividends per share or unit and changes in equity in interim periods on a comparative basis for both quarter-to-date and year-to-date periods presented.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In 2016, the FASB issued ASC 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, which changes the method and timing of the recognition of credit losses on financial assets. The standard will require us to estimate and record credit losses over the life of a
F-22
financial instrument, including receivables, at its inception. Our notes receivable and AFS debt securities are subject to the new standard. For AFS debt securities, the new standard would require us to estimate a credit loss if the fair value of the instruments are less than their carrying value of the instruments. This credit loss standard is required to be applied using a modified-retrospective approach and requires a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings be recorded as of the date of adoption. We adopted the new standard on January 1, 2020. The adoption of the standard is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
Note 3 — Significant Transactions
Parkmerced Mezzanine Investment
On November 26, 2019, we loaned $275 million to the partnership that owns Parkmerced Apartments. The loan accrues interest at 10% per annum with a five-year term and the right to extend for a second five-year term. Along with our mezzanine loan, we received a ten-year option to acquire a 30% interest in the partnership at a $1.0 million exercise price, increased by 30% of future capital spending to progress development and redevelopment of the partnership’s apartment homes. The existence of the option provides us with the opportunity to participate in residual profits of the partnership and in accordance with the acquisition, development, and construction guidance within ASC 310, Receivables, we account for this transaction under the equity method. Our investment balance, which represents our maximum exposure, is reflected in mezzanine investment in our consolidated balance sheets. Parkmerced Apartments is a 152-acre site in southwest San Francisco, currently improved with 3,221 rent-control apartment homes and the vested right to develop 4,093 new market-rate homes.
Acquisitions
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we acquired a 95% interest in 1001 Brickell Bay Drive, a 1.8-acre waterfront parcel in Miami, Florida, currently improved with an office building. The remaining 5% is held by an outside partner and is redeemable at the holder’s option for cash during a three-month exercise period, which begins on July 2, 2022. As the redemption of this put is not within Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership’s control, the noncontrolling interest is reflected in temporary equity in Aimco’s consolidated balance sheets and within temporary capital in the Aimco Operating Partnership’s consolidated balance sheets.
We also acquired One Ardmore, an apartment community located in Ardmore, Pennsylvania, a suburb of Philadelphia, and Prism, an apartment community under development in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Summarized information regarding these acquisitions is set forth in the table below (in thousands):

The apartment communities sold were predominantly located outside of our primary markets or in lower-rated locations within our primary markets and had average revenues per apartment home significantly below those of our retained portfolio.
During the year ended December 31, 2018, we also sold for $590.0 million our Asset Management business and our four affordable apartment communities located in the Hunters Point area of San Francisco. The sale resulted in a gain of $500.3 million and net cash proceeds of $512.2 million, after payment of transaction costs and repayment of property-level debt. Additionally, we sold our interest in the entities owning the La Jolla Cove property. We provided seller financing with a stated value of $48.6 million and received net cash proceeds of approximately $5.0 million.
In addition to the apartment communities we sold during the current period, from time to time we may be marketing for sale certain communities that are inconsistent with our long-term investment strategy. At the end of each reporting period we evaluate whether such communities meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale. As of December 31, 2019, 0 communities were classified as held for sale.
Note 4 — Leases
Lessor Arrangements
The majority of payments we receive for our residential and commercial leases are fixed. We receive variable payments from our residents and commercial tenants primarily for utility reimbursements.

Generally, our residential leases do not provide extension options and, as of December 31, 2019, have an average remaining term of 8.8 months.
Lessee Arrangements
Beginning in 2019, we recognize right of use assets and related lease liabilities, which are included in other assets and accrued liabilities and other, respectively, in our consolidated balance sheets. We estimated the value of the lease liabilities using a discount rate equivalent to the rate we would pay on a secured borrowing with similar terms to the lease. On October 1, 2019, we revised our estimate of the incremental borrowing rate, which resulted in a reduction of our right of use assets and related lease liabilities for ground leases. The adjustment recorded to our right of use assets and lease liabilities did not impact our consolidated statements of operations.
Substantially all of the payments under our ground and office leases are fixed. We exclude options to extend the lease in our minimum lease terms unless the option is reasonably certain to be exercised. Our total lease cost for ground and office leases for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017 was $10.7 million, $5.1 million, and $4.8 million, respectively.
F-24
As of December 31, 2019, the ground and office leases have weighted-average remaining terms of 74.0 years and 8.4 years, respectively, and weighted-average discount rates of 6.55% and 3.22%, respectively. Minimum annual rental payments under these operating leases, reconciled to the lease liability included in accrued liabilities and other in our consolidated balance sheets, are as follows (in thousands):

Note 5 — Non-Recourse Property Debt and Credit Agreement
Non-Recourse Property Debt
We finance apartment communities in our portfolio primarily using property-level, non-recourse, long-dated, fixed-rate, amortizing debt. The following table summarizes non-recourse property debt related to assets classified as held for use as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 (dollars in thousands):

Revolving Credit Facility
We have a revolving credit facility with a syndicate of financial institutions. Our revolving credit facility provides for $800.0 million of revolving loan commitments. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, we had $275.0 million and $160.4 million, respectively, of outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility. The interest rate on our outstanding borrowings was 3.00% and 3.93% as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. As of December 31, 2019, after outstanding borrowings and $7.2 million of undrawn letters of credit backed by the Credit Agreement, our available borrowing capacity was $517.8 million.
Borrowings against the revolving loan commitments bear interest at a rate set forth on a pricing grid, which rate varies based on our credit rating as assigned by specified rating agencies (LIBOR plus 1.20%, or, at our option, a base rate plus 0.20% as of December 31, 2019). The revolving credit facility matures on January 22, 2022. The revolving credit facility provides that we may make distributions to our investors during any four consecutive quarters in an aggregate amount that does not exceed the greater of 95% of our funds from operations, as defined by Nareit, for such period, subject to certain non-cash adjustments, or such amount as may be necessary to maintain Aimco’s REIT status.
Note 6 — Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
In connection with our redevelopment, development, and other capital improvement activities, we have entered into various construction-related contracts and we have made commitments to complete redevelopment and development of certain apartment communities, pursuant to financing or other arrangements. As of December 31, 2019, our commitments related to active redevelopments and developments totaled approximately $254.5 million, most of which we expect to incur during the next 12 months.
We enter into certain commitments for future purchases of goods and services in connection with the operations of our apartment communities. Those commitments generally have terms of one year or less and reflect expenditure levels comparable to our historical expenditures.
Legal Matters
In addition to the matters described below, we are a party to various legal actions and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, some of which are covered by our general liability insurance program, and none of which we expect to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Environmental
Various federal, state and local laws subject apartment community owners or operators to liability for management, and the costs of removal or remediation, of certain potentially hazardous materials that may be present in the land or buildings of an apartment community. Such laws often impose liability without regard to fault or whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such materials. The presence of, or the failure to manage or remediate properly, these materials may adversely affect occupancy at such apartment communities as well as the ability to sell or finance such apartment communities. In addition, governmental agencies may bring claims for costs associated with investigation and remediation actions. Moreover, private plaintiffs may potentially make claims for investigation and remediation costs they incur or for personal injury, disease, disability or other infirmities related to the alleged presence of hazardous materials. In addition to potential environmental liabilities or costs associated with our current apartment communities, we may also be responsible for such liabilities or costs associated with communities we acquire or manage in the future, or apartment communities we no longer own or operate.
We are engaged in discussions with the Environmental Protection Agency, or EPA, regarding contaminated groundwater near an Indiana apartment community that has not been owned by us since 2008. The contamination allegedly derives from a dry cleaner that operated on our former property, prior to our ownership. We undertook a voluntary remediation of the dry cleaner contamination under state oversight. In 2016, EPA listed our former community and a number of residential communities in the vicinity on the National Priorities List, or NPL (i.e., as a Superfund site). In May 2018, we prevailed on our federal judicial appeal vacating the Superfund listing. We continue to work with EPA to identify options for clean-up of the site outside the Superfund program. Although the outcome of these processes are uncertain, we do not expect their resolution to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
We also have a contingent liability related to a property in Lake Tahoe, California, regarding environmental contamination from the historic operation of a dry cleaner. An entity owned by us was the former general partner of a now-dissolved partnership that previously owned a site that was a laundromat with a self-service dry-cleaning machine. That entity and the current property owner have been remediating the site since 2009, under the oversight of the Lahontan Regional Water Quality Control Board, or Lahontan. In May 2017, Lahontan issued a final cleanup and abatement order that names 4 potentially-responsible parties, acknowledges that there may be additional responsible parties, and requires the named parties to perform additional groundwater
F-26
investigation and corrective actions with respect to onsite and offsite contamination. We are appealing the final order while simultaneously complying with it. Although the outcome of this process is uncertain, we do not expect its resolution to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
We have determined that our legal obligations to remove or remediate certain potentially hazardous materials may be conditional asset retirement obligations, as defined by GAAP. Except in limited circumstances where the asset retirement activities are expected to be performed in connection with a planned construction project or apartment community casualty, we believe that the fair value of our asset retirement obligations cannot be reasonably estimated due to significant uncertainties in the timing and manner of settlement of those obligations. Asset retirement obligations that are reasonably estimable as of December 31, 2019, are immaterial to our consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Note 7 — Aimco Equity
Preferred Stock
During the year ended December 31, 2019, Aimco redeemed all of the outstanding shares of its 6.88% Class A Cumulative Preferred Stock. Aimco’s Class A Preferred Stock had a $0.01 per share par value, was senior to Aimco’s Common Stock, had a liquidation preference per share of $25.00.
In connection with the redemption of Aimco preferred stock, the Aimco Operating Partnership redeemed from Aimco a number of Preferred Partnership Units equal to the number of shares redeemed by Aimco.
Common Stock
During the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, Aimco declared dividends per common share of $1.56, $1.52 and $1.44, respectively.
On February 3, 2019, Aimco’s Board of Directors authorized a reverse stock split, in which every 1.03119 Aimco common share was combined into one Aimco common share, effective at the close of business on February 20, 2019. On the same date, the Board of Directors also declared a special dividend on the Aimco Common Stock that consisted of $67.1 million in cash, 4.5 million shares of Aimco Common Stock, and $0.4 million of cash paid in lieu of issuing fractional units. We paid the special dividend on March 22, 2019, to stockholders of record as of February 22, 2019. The special dividend amount included the regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.39 per share.
Stockholders had the opportunity to elect to receive the special dividend in the form of all cash or all stock, subject to proration if either option was oversubscribed. Aimco’s Board of Directors also authorized a reverse stock split intended to neutralize the dilutive impact of the stock issued in the special dividend. As a result, the total number of shares outstanding after the stock dividend and reverse split was unchanged from the number of shares outstanding immediately prior to the two actions. All equity and earnings per share data, including the number of shares outstanding, have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split for all periods presented in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Change to our charter
On February 24, 2020, pursuant to Maryland law and our charter, our Board of Directors reclassified into Common Stock, all of the authorized and unissued shares of each of the following classes of preferred stock: Class Z Cumulative Preferred Stock, Class A Cumulative Preferred Stock, and Series A Community Reinvestment Act Preferred Stock. The reclassification increases the number of authorized shares classified as Common Stock by 9,800,240 shares, from 500,787,260 shares immediately prior to the reclassification to 510,587,500 shares immediately after the reclassification. The reclassification does not impact any of our issued and outstanding shares of preferred stock.
Registration Statements
Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership have a shelf registration statement that provides for the issuance of equity and debt securities by Aimco and debt securities by the Aimco Operating Partnership.

Each class of preferred OP Units is currently redeemable at the holders’ option. The Aimco Operating Partnership, at its sole discretion, may settle such redemption requests in cash or cause Aimco to issue shares of its Common Stock with a value equal to the redemption price. In the event the Aimco Operating Partnership requires Aimco to issue shares of Common Stock to settle a redemption request, the Aimco Operating Partnership would issue to Aimco a corresponding number of common OP Units. The Aimco Operating Partnership has a redemption policy that requires cash settlement of redemption requests for the preferred OP Units, subject to limited exceptions. Subject to certain conditions, the Class Four and Class Six preferred OP Units may be converted into common OP Units.
These redeemable units are classified within temporary equity in Aimco’s consolidated balance sheets and within temporary capital in the Aimco Operating Partnership’s consolidated balance sheets.
During the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, approximately 169,000, 10,000 and 67,000 preferred OP Units, respectively, were redeemed in exchange for cash, and 0 preferred OP Units were redeemed in exchange for shares of Aimco Common Stock or common OP Units.

Aimco Operating Partnership Partners’ Capital
Common Partnership Units
In the Aimco Operating Partnership’s consolidated balance sheets, the common partnership units held by Aimco are classified within Partners’ Capital as General Partner and Special Limited Partner capital and the common OP Units are classified within Limited Partners’ capital. In Aimco’s consolidated balance sheets, the common OP Units are classified within permanent equity as common noncontrolling interests in the Aimco Operating Partnership.
Common partnership units held by Aimco are not redeemable whereas common OP Units are redeemable at the holders’ option, subject to certain restrictions, on the basis of one common OP Unit for either one share of Common Stock or cash equal to the fair value of a share of Common Stock at the time of redemption. Aimco has the option to deliver shares of Common Stock in exchange for all or any portion of the common OP Units tendered for redemption. When a limited partner redeems a common OP Unit for Common Stock, Limited Partners’ capital is reduced and the General Partner and Special Limited Partners’ capital is increased.
During the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, approximately 129,000, 224,000 and 268,000 common OP Units, respectively, were redeemed in exchange for cash. During the year ended December 31, 2019, 127,000 common OP Units were
F-28
redeemed in exchange for shares of Common Stock. NaN common OP Units were redeemed in exchange for Aimco Common Stock during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.
The holders of the common OP Units receive distributions, prorated from the date of issuance, in an amount equivalent to the dividends paid to holders of Common Stock. During the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, the Aimco Operating Partnership declared distributions per common unit of $1.56, $1.52 and $1.44, respectively.
On February 3, 2019, the Board of Directors of the Aimco Operating Partnership’s general partner authorized a reverse unit split and special distribution in the same form and with the same timing as the reverse stock split and special dividend discussed in Note 7 above. The special distribution to the holders of Aimco Operating Partnership common partnership units that consisted of $72.7 million in cash, 4.8 million common partnership units and $0.4 million of cash paid in lieu of issuing fractional units. Total common partnership units outstanding prior to and following both transactions was unchanged.
Note 9 — Share-Based Compensation
We have a stock award and incentive program to attract and retain officers and independent directors. As of December 31, 2019, approximately 3.9 million shares were available for issuance under our Amended and Restated 2015 Stock Award and Incentive Plan, or the 2015 Plan. The total number of shares available for issuance under this plan may increase due to any forfeiture, cancellation, exchange, surrender, termination or expiration of an award outstanding under our 2007 Stock Award and Incentive Plan. Awards under the 2015 Plan may be in the form of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options and restricted stock, or other types of awards as authorized under the plan.
Our plans are administered by the Compensation and Human Resources Committee of Aimco’s Board of Directors. In the case of stock options, the exercise price of the options granted may not be less than the fair market value of a share of Common Stock at the date of grant.
Total compensation cost recognized for share-based awards was as follows for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017 (in thousands):

As of December 31, 2019, total unvested compensation cost not yet recognized was $10.3 million. We expect to recognize this compensation over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.6 years.
We grant stock options and restricted stock awards that are subject to time-based vesting and require continuous employment, typically over a period of four years from the grant date, and we refer to these awards as Time-Based Stock Options and Time-Based Restricted Stock, respectively. We also grant stock options, restricted stock awards, and two forms of long-term incentive partnership units, or LTIP units, that vest conditioned on Aimco’s total shareholder return, or TSR, relative to the NAREIT Equity Apartment Index (60% weighting) and the MSCI US REIT Index (40% weighting) over a forward-looking performance period of three years. We refer to these awards as TSR Stock Options, TSR Restricted Stock, TSR LTIP I units, and TSR LTIP II units. Vested LTIP II units may be converted at the holders’ option to LTIP Units for a strike price over a term of 10 years. Earned TSR-based awards, if any, will vest 50% on each of the third anniversary and fourth anniversary of the grant date, based on continued employment. Our Time-Based Stock Options and TSR Stock Options expire generally 10 years from the date of grant.
We recognize compensation cost associated with Time-Based awards ratably over the requisite service periods, which are typically four years. We recognize compensation cost related to the TSR-based awards, which have graded vesting periods, over the requisite service period for each separate vesting tranche of the award, commencing on the grant date. The value of the TSR-based awards take into consideration the probability that the market condition will be achieved; therefore previously recorded compensation cost is not adjusted in the event that the market condition is not achieved and awards do not vest.
We had Time-Based Stock Options, Time-Based Restricted Stock, TSR Stock Options, TSR Restricted Stock, TSR LTIP I units and TSR LTIP II units outstanding as of December 31, 2019.

Determination of Grant-Date Fair Value of Awards
We estimated the fair value of TSR-based awards granted in 2019, 2018, and 2017 using a Monte Carlo model with the assumptions set forth in the table below.
The risk-free interest rate reflects the annualized yield of a zero coupon United States Treasury security with a term equal to the expected term of the awards. The expected dividend yield reflects expectations regarding cash dividend amounts per share paid on Aimco’s Common Stock during the expected term of the awards. Expected volatility reflects an average of the historical volatility of Aimco’s Common Stock during the historical period commensurate with the expected term of the award that ended on the date of grant, and the implied volatility is calculated from observed call option contracts closest to the expected term. The derived vesting period of TSR Restricted Stock and TSR LTIP I units was determined based on the graded vesting terms. The expected term of the TSR-options and TSR LTIP II units was based on historical exercises and post-vesting terminations. The valuation assumptions for the 2019, 2018, and 2017 grants were as follows:

As of December 31, 2019, we had federal and state net operating loss carryforwards, or NOLs, for which the deferred tax asset was approximately $6.1 million, before a valuation allowance of $4.8 million. The NOLs expire in years 2020 to 2038. Subject to certain separate return limitations, we may use these NOLs to offset a portion of state taxable income generated by our TRS entities. As of December 31, 2019, we also had low-income housing and rehabilitation tax credit carryforwards and corresponding deferred tax assets of approximately $53.8 million for income tax purposes that expire in years 2035 to 2039.

Because the statute of limitations has not yet elapsed, our United States federal income tax returns for the year ended December 31, 2014, and subsequent years and certain of our State income tax returns for the year ended December 31, 2014, and subsequent years are currently subject to examination by the IRS or other taxing authorities. If recognized, the unrecognized benefit would affect the effective rate.
In 2014, the IRS initiated an audit of the Aimco Operating Partnership’s 2011 and 2012 tax years. This audit was concluded during the year ended December 31, 2019, with no material effect on our tax benefits, financial condition or results of operations.
Our policy is to include any interest and penalties related to income taxes within the income tax line item in our consolidated statements of operations.
In accordance with the accounting requirements for stock-based compensation, we may recognize tax benefits in connection with the exercise of stock options by employees of our TRS entities and the vesting of restricted stock awards. We recognize the tax effects related to stock-based compensation through earnings in the period the compensation was recognized.

Consolidated income or loss subject to tax consists of pretax income or loss of our TRS entities and income and gains retained by the REIT. For the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, we had consolidated net loss subject to tax of $21.2 million, net income subject to tax of $158.6 million, and net loss subject to tax of $55.6 million, respectively. Net loss subject to tax for the year ended December 31, 2019 included a $7.7 million net loss of a foreign subsidiary.

Note 11 — Earnings per Share and per Unit
Aimco and the Aimco Operating Partnership calculate basic earnings per common share and basic earnings per common unit based on the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock and common partnership units outstanding. We calculate diluted earnings per share and diluted earnings per unit taking into consideration dilutive common stock and common partnership unit equivalents and dilutive convertible securities outstanding during the period.
Our common stock and common partnership unit equivalents include options to purchase shares of Common Stock, which, if exercised, would result in Aimco’s issuance of additional shares and the Aimco Operating Partnership’s issuance to Aimco of additional common partnership units equal to the number of shares purchased under the options. These equivalents also include unvested TSR Restricted Stock awards that do not meet the definition of participating securities, which would result in an increase in the number of shares of Common Stock and common partnership units outstanding equal to the number of the shares that vest. Common partnership unit equivalents also include unvested long-term incentive partnership units. We include in the denominator securities with dilutive effect in calculating diluted earnings per share and per unit during these periods.
Our Time-Based Restricted Stock awards receive non-forfeitable dividends similar to shares of Common Stock and common partnership units prior to vesting, and our TSR LTIP I units and TSR LTIP II units receive non-forfeitable distributions based on specified percentages of the distributions paid to common partnership units prior to vesting and conversion. The unvested restricted shares and units related to these awards are participating securities. We include the effect of participating securities in basic and diluted earnings per share and unit computations using the two-class method of allocating distributed and undistributed earnings when the two-class method is more dilutive than the treasury stock method.
Reconciliations of the numerator and denominator in the calculations of basic and diluted earnings per share and per unit for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017 are as follows (in thousands, except per share and per unit data):

As discussed in Note 7, the Aimco Operating Partnership has various classes of preferred OP Units, which may be redeemed at the holders’ option. The Aimco Operating Partnership may redeem these units for cash, or at its option, shares of Common Stock. As of December 31, 2019, these preferred OP Units were potentially redeemable for approximately 1.9 million shares of Common Stock (based on the period end market price), or cash. The Aimco Operating Partnership has a redemption policy that requires cash settlement of redemption requests for the preferred OP Units, subject to limited exceptions. Accordingly, we have excluded these securities from earnings per share and unit computations for the periods presented above, and we expect to exclude them in future periods.
Note 12 — Fair Value Measurements
Recurring Fair Value Measurements
We measure at fair value on a recurring basis our investment in the securitization trust that holds certain of our property debt, which we classify as AFS debt securities. These investments are presented within other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. We hold several positions in the securitization trust that pay interest currently and we also hold the first loss position in the securitization trust, which accrues interest over the term of the investment. These investments were acquired at a discount to face value and we are accreting the discount to the $100.9 million face value of the investments through interest income using the effective interest method over the remaining expected term of the investments, which as of December 31, 2019, was approximately 1.6 years. Our amortized cost basis for these investments, which represents the original cost adjusted for interest accretion less interest payments received, was $90.0 million and $83.6 million at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Our investments in AFS debt securities are classified within Level 2 of the GAAP fair value hierarchy. We estimate the fair value of these investments using an income and market approach with primarily observable inputs, including yields and other information regarding similar types of investments, and adjusted for certain unobservable inputs specific to these investments. The fair value of the positions that pay interest currently typically moves in an inverse relationship with movements in interest rates. The fair value of the first loss position is primarily correlated to collateral quality and demand for similar subordinate commercial mortgage-backed securities.
The following table summarizes fair value for our AFS debt securities as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 (in thousands):

Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements
We believe that the carrying value of the consolidated amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables and payables approximated their fair value as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, due to their relatively short-term nature and high probability of realization. The carrying amounts of notes receivable and the revolving credit facility approximated their estimated fair value as of December 31, 2019. We estimate the fair value of our non-recourse property debt using an income and market approach, including comparison of the contractual terms to observable and unobservable inputs such as market interest rate risk spreads, contractual interest rates, remaining periods to maturity, collateral quality and loan to value ratios on similarly encumbered apartment communities within our portfolio. We classify the fair value of our non-recourse property debt within Level 2 of the GAAP valuation hierarchy based on the significance of certain of the unobservable inputs used to estimate its fair value.

Note 13 — Business Segments
In 2019, as a result of the 2018 sale of the Asset Management business, we revised the information regularly reviewed by our chief executive officer, who is our chief operating decision maker, to assess our operating performance. We have determined we have 4 segments: Same Store, Redevelopment and Development, Acquisition, and Other Real Estate.
Our Same Store segment includes communities that have reached a stabilized level of operations as of the beginning of a two-year comparable period and maintained it throughout the current and comparable prior year, and are not expected to be sold
F-35
within 12 months. Our Redevelopment and Development segment includes apartment communities that are currently under construction that have not achieved a stabilized level of operations, and those that have been completed in recent years that have not achieved and maintained stabilized operations for both the current and comparable prior year. Our Acquisition segment includes communities that we have acquired since the beginning of a two-year comparable period. Our Other Real Estate segment primarily includes communities that are subject to limitations on rent increases, communities that we expect to sell within 12 months but do not yet meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale, certain retail spaces and 1001 Brickell Bay Drive.
Our chief operating decision maker uses proportionate property net operating income to assess the operating performance of our apartment communities. Proportionate property net operating income is defined as our share of rental and other property revenues, excluding utility costs reimbursed by residents, less our share of property operating expenses, net of utility reimbursements, for consolidated communities. In our consolidated statements of operations, utility reimbursements are included in rental and other property revenues attributable to real estate, in accordance with GAAP.
As of December 31, 2019, our Same Store segment included 91 consolidated apartment communities with 26,649 apartment homes; our Redevelopment and Development segment included 7 consolidated communities with 3,143 homes; our Acquisition segment included 7 consolidated communities with 1,590 homes; and our Other Real Estate segment included 15 consolidated communities with 1,315 homes and 1 office building.
The following tables present the revenues, proportionate property net operating income and income before income tax benefit of our segments on a proportionate basis and excluding our proportionate share of 4 apartment communities with 142 apartment homes that we neither manage nor consolidate, and amounts related to communities sold as of December 31, 2019 for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017 (in thousands):
