NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 20172018
1. Organization and description of business
PS Business Parks, Inc. (“PSB”) was incorporated in the state of California in 1990. As of September 30, 2017,2018, PSB owned 78.0%78.9% of the common partnership units of PS Business Parks, L.P. (the “OP”). The remaining common partnership units are owned by Public Storage (“PS”). PS’s interest in the OP is referred to as the “PS OP Interest.Interests.” PSB, as the sole general partner of the OP, has full, exclusive and complete responsibility and discretion in managing and controlling the OP. PSB and its subsidiaries, including the OP and our consolidated joint venture, are collectively referred to as the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our.” PS would own 41.9%41.7% (or 14.5 million shares) of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock if it redeemed its common partnership units for common shares.
The Company is a fully-integrated, self-advised and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that owns, operates, acquires and develops commercial properties, primarily multi-tenant industrial, flex office and industrialoffice space. As of September 30, 2017,2018, the Company owned and operated 28.028.3 million rentable square feet of commercial space in six states and held a 95.0% interest in 395 apartments.a 395-unit multifamily apartment complex. The Company also manages 684,000for a fee 504,000 rentable square feet on behalf of PS.
References to the number of properties or square footage are unaudited and outside the scope of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm’s review of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).
2. Summary of significant accounting policies
Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PSB and its subsidiaries, including the OP.OP and our consolidated joint venture. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. The financial statements are presented on an accrual basis in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20172018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2017.2018. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. 2017.
Consolidation and equity method of accounting
We consider entities to be Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”) when they have insufficient equity to finance their activities without additional subordinated financial support provided by other parties, or the equity holders as a group do not have a controlling financial interest. A limited partnership is also generally considered a VIE if the limited partners do not participate in operating decisions. We consolidate VIEs when we are the primary beneficiary, generally defined as having (i) the power to direct the activities most significantly impacting economic performance and (ii) either the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE.
We account for investments in entities that are not VIEs that we have significant influence over, but do not control, using the equity method of accounting. At September 30, 2017,accounting and for investment in entities that we havecontrol, we consolidate. Prior to January 1, 2018, we had an interest in a joint venture engaged in the development and operation of residential real estate, which we accountaccounted for using the equity method of accounting. On January 1, 2018, we began to consolidate the joint venture in our consolidated financial statements, due to changes to the joint venture agreement that gave the Company control of the joint venture. See Note 4 for more information on this entity.

PS, the sole limited partner in the OP, has no power to direct the activities of the OP. We are the primary beneficiary of the OP. Accordingly, we consider the OP a VIE and consolidate it. Substantially all of our assets and liabilities are held by the OP.
Noncontrolling interests
The PS OP Interest representsNoncontrolling interests represent (i) PS’s noncontrolling interest in the OP through its ownership of 7,305,355 common partnership units.units and (ii) a third-party 5.0% interest in a joint venture owning a 395-unit multifamily apartment complex. See noteNote 7 for further information. information on noncontrolling interests.
Use of estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Allowance for doubtful accounts
The Company monitors the collectability of its receivable balances including the deferred rent receivable on an ongoing basis. TenantCustomer receivables are net of an allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts totaling $400,000 at September 30, 20172018 and December 31, 2016.2017. Deferred rent receivable is net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts totaling $910,000$878,000 and $916,000$867,000 at September 30, 20172018 and December 31, 2016,2017, respectively.
Financial instruments
The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments are described below. The Company has estimated the fair value of financial instruments using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop estimates of market value. Accordingly, estimated fair values are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized in current market exchanges. The Company determines the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities utilizing a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to a fair value measurement are considered to be observable or unobservable in a marketplace. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions. This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. The following is the fair value hierarchy:
· | Level 1—quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; |
· | Level 2—quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and |
· | Level 3—fair value measurements derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. |
Financial assets that are exposed to credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and receivables. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents, which consist primarily of money market investments, are only invested in entities with an investment grade rating. Receivables are comprised of balances due from a large number ofvarious customers. Balances that the Company expects to become uncollectible are reserved for or written off. Due to the short period to maturity of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other assets and accrued and other liabilities, the carrying values as presented on the consolidated balance sheets are reasonable estimates of fair value.

Real estate facilities are recorded at cost. Property taxes, insurance, interest and costs essential to the development of property for its intended use are capitalized during the period of development. CostsDirect costs related to the renovation or improvement of the properties are capitalized. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Expenditures that are expected to benefit a period greater than two years and exceed $2,000 are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful life. Buildings and improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which generally range from five to 30 years. Transaction costs, which include tenant improvements and lease commissions, of $1,000 or more for leases with terms greater than one year are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Transaction costs less than $1,000 or for leases of one year or less are expensed as incurred.
Property held for dispositionsale or development
Real estate is classified as held for dispositionsale when the asset is being marketed for sale and we expect that a sale is likely to occur in the next 12 months. Real estate is classified as held for development when it is no longer used in its original form and likely that it will be developed to an alternate use and no longer used in its present form.use. Property held for development or dispositionsale is not depreciated.
Intangible assets/liabilities
When we acquire real estate facilities, an intangible asset is recorded as other assets for leases where the in-place rent is higher than market rents, and an intangible liability is recorded as other liabilities where the market rents are higher than the in-place rents. The amounts recorded are based upon the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of such differences over the lease term and such amounts are amortized to rental income over the respective remaining lease term. As of September 30, 2018, the value of above-market in-place rents resulted in net intangible assets of $1.9 million, net of $9.8 million of accumulated amortization and the value of below-market in-place rents resulted in net intangible liabilities of $1.9 million, net of $10.7 million of accumulated amortization. As of December 31, 2017, the value of above-market in-place rents resulted in net intangible assets of $731,000, net of $9.5 million of accumulated amortization and the value of below-market in-place rents resulted in net intangible liabilities of $383,000, net of $10.4 million of accumulated amortization.
We have no materialAdditionally, when we acquire real estate facilities, the value of in-place leases (i.e. customer origination costs) is recorded as other assets and is amortized to depreciation and amortization expense over the respective remaining lease term. As of September 30, 2018, the value of acquired in-place leases resulted in net intangible assets or liabilities for any periods presented.of $5.6 million,

net of $1.7 million of accumulated amortization. As of December 31, 2017, we had no in-place lease values on our consolidated balance sheet.
Evaluation of asset impairment
We evaluate our real estate and finite-lived intangible assets for impairment each quarter. If there are indicators of impairment and we determine that the carrying value of the asset is not recoverable from estimated future undiscounted cash flows to be received through the asset’s remaining life (or, if earlier, the expected disposal date), we record an impairment charge to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the asset’s estimated fair value or net proceeds from expected disposal.
We evaluate our investment in our unconsolidated joint venture on a quarterly basis. We record an impairment charge to the extent the carrying amount exceeds estimated fair value, when we believe any such shortfall is other than temporary.
No impairmentsimpairment charges were recorded in any of our evaluations for any period presented herein.
Stock compensation
All share-basedShare-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as stock compensation in the Company’s consolidated statements of income based on their grant date fair values, except for performance-based grants, which are accounted for based on their fair values at the beginning of the service period. See Note 11.

Accrued and other liabilities and other assets
Accrued and other liabilities consist primarily of rents prepaid by our tenants,customers, trade payables, property tax accruals, accrued payroll and contingent loss accruals when probable and estimable. We disclose the nature of significant unaccrued losses that are reasonably possible of occurring and, if estimable, a range of exposure. Other assets are comprised primarily of prepaid expenses. We believe the fair value of our accrued and other liabilities and other assets approximate book value, due to the short period until settlement.
Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognized with respectWe recognize the aggregate rent to contractual arrangements when persuasive evidencebe collected (including the impact of an arrangement exists;escalators and concessions) under leases ratably throughout the delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; the fee is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured. All leases are classified as operating leases. Rental income is recognizednon-cancellable lease term on a straight-line“Straight-Line” basis, overcommencing when the customer takes control of the leased space. Cumulative Straight-Line rent recognized in excess of amounts billed per the lease term, with the excess of cumulative rental income recognized over the cumulative rent billed for the lease term reflectedterms is presented as “deferred rent receivable” on our consolidated balance sheets. Reimbursements from tenantscustomers for real estate taxes and other recoverable operating expenses are recognized as rental income in the period the applicable costs are incurred. Property management fees are recognized in the period earned.earned as other income.
Costs incurred in acquiring tenantscustomers (primarily tenant improvements and lease commissions) are capitalized and amortized over the lease period.period for leases with terms greater than one year.
Gains from salesSales of real estate facilities
The Company recognizes gains fromSales of real estate facilities are not part of our ordinary activities, and as a result, we consider such sales as contracts with non-customers. We recognize sales of real estate facilities atwhen we have collected payment and the timeattributes of sale usingownership such as possession and control of the full accrual method, provided that various criteria relatedasset have been transferred to the termsbuyer. If a contract for sale includes obligations to provide goods or services to the buyer, an allocated portion of the transactions and any subsequent involvement bycontract price is recognized as revenue as the Company withrelated goods or services are transferred to the properties sold are met. If the criteria are not met, the Company defers the gains and recognizes them when the criteria are met or uses the installment or cost recovery methods as appropriate under the circumstances.buyer.
11
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses include executive and other compensation, corporate office expenses, professional fees, acquisition transaction costs, state income taxes and other such costs that are not directly related to the operation of our real estate facilities.
Income taxes
We have elected to be treated as a REIT, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). As a REIT, we do not incur federal income tax if we distribute 100%substantially all of our REIT“REIT taxable incomeincome” each year, and if we meet certain organizational and operational rules. We believe we have met these REIT requirements for all periods presented herein. Accordingly, we have recorded no federal income tax expense related to our REIT“REIT taxable income.”
We recognize tax benefits of uncertain income tax positions that are subject to audit only if we believe it is more likely than not that the position would ultimately be sustained assuming the relevant taxing authorities had full knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances of our positions. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we did not recognize any tax benefitsbenefit for uncertain tax positions.
Accounting for preferred equity issuance costs
We record issuance costs as a reduction to paid-in capital on our consolidated balance sheets at the time the preferred securities are issued and reflect the carrying value of the preferred equity at its redemption value. An additional allocation of income is made from the common shareholders to the preferred shareholders in the amount of
10
the original issuance costs, and we reclassify the redemption value from equity to liabilities when we call preferred shares for redemption.
Net income per common share
Notwithstanding the presentation of income allocations on our consolidated statements of income, net income is allocated to (a) preferred shareholders, for distributions paid or payable, (b) preferred shareholders, to the extent redemption value exceeds the related carrying value (a “Preferred Redemption Allocation”) and (c) restricted sharestock unit (“RSU”) holders, for non-forfeitable dividends paid adjusted for participation rights in undistributed earnings. The remaining net income is allocated to the common partnership units and our common shareholders, respectively, based upon the pro-rata aggregate number of units and shares outstanding.
Basic and diluted net income per common share are each calculated based upon net income allocable to common shareholders, divided by (i) in the case of basic net income per common share, weighted average common shares and (ii) in the case of diluted income per share, weighted average common shares adjusted for the impact if dilutive, of stock compensation awards outstanding (Note 11). using the treasury stock method.
12
The following tables set forth the calculation of the components of our basic and diluted income per share that are not reflected on the face of our consolidated statements of income, including the allocation of income to common shareholders and common partnership units, the percentage of weighted average shares and common partnership units, as well as basic and diluted weighted average shares (in thousands):

Segment reporting
The Company views its operationsWe have two operating segments: (i) the acquisition, development, ownership and management of commercial real estate and (ii) the acquisition, development, ownership and management of multifamily real estate, but have one reportable segment as onethe multifamily segment does not meet the quantitative thresholds necessary to require reporting as a separate segment.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the consolidated financial statements for 2016 and in order to conform to the 2017 presentation, including reclassifying management fee income totaling $130,000 and $389,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 into “interest and other income” on our consolidated statements of income.
Recently issued accounting standards
In May 2014 and February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued two Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”s), ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (the “Revenue Standard”), and ASU 2016-02, Leases (the “Lease Standard”). These standards apply to substantially all of our revenue generating activities, as well as provide a model to account for the disposition of real estate facilities to non-customers, which is governed under ASU 2017-05.2017-05, Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets.
The Lease Standard will direct how we account for payments from the elements of our leases that are generally fixed and determinable at the inception of the lease (“Fixed Lease Payments”) while the Revenue Standard will direct how we account for the non-lease components of our lease contracts, primarily expense reimbursements (“Non-Lease Payments”). The adoption of the Revenue Standard and theits impact on our accounting for the disposition of real estate facilities.facilities is described below.
13
The Lease Standard
The Lease Standard requires us to identify Fixed Lease Payments and Non-Lease Payments of a lease agreement and will govern the recognition of revenue for the Fixed Lease Payments. Revenue related to Non-Lease Payments under our lease arrangements will be subject to the Revenue Standard is effective upon adoption of the Lease Standard.
We will implement the Lease Standard on its effective date of January 1, 2018, and generally requires2019 using the required modified retrospective transition approach (with certain transition relief that revenue from Non-Lease Payments be based uponis available to us). The modified retrospective approach will require us to first record an adjustment to the consideration expected from our tenants, and be recognized under various methods depending upon the nature of the underlying expense and the contractual reimbursement arrangement. The standard permits either the retrospective (restatement) method or cumulative effects transition method and allowed for early adoption on January 1, 2017 which we did not elect. We expect to use the cumulative effects transition method, which will result in an adjustment to our retainedbalance of accumulated earnings effective January 1, 2018(deficit) for the cumulative impact of the standardLease Standard on all leases existing at January 1, 2017. Then, we will have to restate the financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2018 for the Lease Standard impact on all leases that were in force at any time during those periods. In July, 2018, the FASB issued an amendment to the transition method that allows adoption on January 1, 2019 with a cumulative effect adjustment as of December 31, 2017.January 1, 2019, with no restatement of prior periods. We do not expect to adopt this standard to have a material impact on our accounting for our facility management fees for property management services provided to PS or the disposition of real estate facilities as our accounting policy is consistent with the provisions of the standard. Rental income from leasing arrangements is a substantial portion of our revenues and is specifically excluded from the Revenue Standard and will be governed by the Lease Standard. In conjunction with thetransition method upon adoption of the Lease Standard we are currently evaluating the impact of the standard as it relates to Non-Lease Payments.
The Lease Standard is effective on January 1, 2019.
Lessor Accounting
We recognized revenue from our lease arrangements aggregating $103.8 million and $309.4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. The standard provides definitional guidancerevenue consisted primarily of what constitutes a lease, requiring lessees to recognize most leases onrental income and expense reimbursements of $80.9 million and $22.9 million, respectively, for the balance sheetthree-month period and making certain changes to lessor accounting. For leases in which we are$240.3 million and $69.1 million, respectively, for the lessor,nine-month period.
Under the current accounting standards, we are required to account for Fixed Lease Payments on a straight-line basis, with the expected fixed payments recognized ratably over the term of the lease. Payments for expense reimbursements received under these lease arrangements related to our customer’s pro rata share of real estate taxes, insurance, utilities, repairs and maintenance, common area expense and other operating expenses are considered Fixed Lease Payments. We recognize these reimbursements as revenue when the related contractually recoverable operating expenses are incurred.
Under the Lease Standard, the total consideration in each lease agreement will be allocated to the Fixed Lease Payment and Non-Lease Payments based on their relative standalone selling prices. Lessors will continue to recognize the Fixed Lease Payments on a straight-line basis, which is consistent with existing guidance for operating leases. The standardissued amendment to the Lease Standard noted above also requiresallows lessors to elect, as a practical expedient, not to allocate the total consideration to Fixed Lease Payments and Non-Lease Payments based on their relative standalone selling prices. This practical expedient allows lessors to elect a combined single component presentation if (i) the timing and pattern of the revenue recognition for the Fixed Lease Payments and Non-Lease Payments are the same, and (ii) the combined single component of the lease would continue to be classified as an operating lease.
We do not expect that the Lease Standard will impact our accounting for Fixed Lease Payments, because our accounting policy is currently consistent with the provisions of the standard. Upon adoption of the Lease Standard, we expect to adopt the practical expedient, specifically related to payments for expense reimbursements that qualify as Non-Lease Payments to be presented under a single lease component presentation, which would otherwise be accounted for under the Revenue Standard. We believe the two conditions have been met for Non-Lease Payments as (i) the timing and pattern of transfer of the Fixed Lease Payments and Non-Lease Payments are the same, and (ii) the combined single component of the lease would be classified as an operating lease.
Costs to execute leases
The Lease Standard also provides updated guidance on the requirements for the capitalization of only the incremental costs incurred in executing each particular lease,leases, such as legal fees to draft a lease or commissions based upon a particular lease. Costsand commissions. Under the Lease Standard, any costs that would have been incurred regardless of successful lease execution, such as allocated costs of internal personnel, are to be expensed and may not be capitalized. As we do not currently capitalize any such costs, we do not expect this component of the Lease Standard to have a material effect to our consolidated financial statements.
14
Lessee accounting
Under the Lease Standard, lessees are required to apply a dual approach by classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle whether the lease is effectively a finance purchase of the lease asset by the lessee. This classification will determine whether the lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. For most leases with a term of greater than 12 months, in which we are the lessee, the present value of future lease payments will be recognized on our balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and related labiality. As of September 30, 2017, the remaining contractual payments under our ground lease agreements aggregated $282,000. The standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at or entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements on the date of initial application and allowed early adoption, which we did not elect.liability. We do not expect a material impact on our consolidated financial statement from the initial recognition of each lease liability upon the adoption and the pattern of recognition subsequent to adoption.
The Revenue Standard
In May, 2014, the FASB issued the Revenue Standard on recognition of revenue arising from contracts with customers, as well as the accounting for the disposition of real estate facilities, and subsequently, issued additional guidance that further clarified the standard. Rental income from leasing arrangements is a substantial portion of our revenues and is specifically excluded from the Revenue Standard and will be governed by the Lease Standard (discussed above).
The core principle underlying this guidance is that entities will recognize revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled for such exchange.
The Revenue Standards permit either the full retrospective or modified retrospective transition method. We adopted the Revenue Standards effective January 1, 2018 utilizing the modified retrospective transition method applied to contracts not completed as of January 1, 2018 and the adoption did not result in a material impact to our accounting for Fixed Lease Payments, because our accounting policy is currently consistent withconsolidated financial statements.
Revenue within the provisionsscope of the standard. We are currently evaluatingRevenue Standard
Sales of Real Estate Facilities
Under the impactRevenue Standard, which includes guidance on recognition of gains and losses arising from the derecognition of nonfinancial assets in a transaction with non-customers, the derecognition model is based on the transfer of control of nonfinancial assets or in substance nonfinancial assets that do not meet the definition of a business. Generally, our sales of real estate facilities would be considered a sale of a nonfinancial asset to non-customers. If we determine we do not have a controlling financial interest in the entity that holds the asset and the arrangement meets the criteria to be accounted for as a contract, we would derecognize the asset and recognize a gain or loss on the sale of the standard as it relates toreal estate facilities accounted under the capitalization of costs associated with executed leases.revenue recognition principles under the Revenue Standard.
12
In August, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which provides guidance on the classification of certain specific cash receipts and cash payments in the statement of cash flows, including, but not limited to, cash distributions received from equity method investees, including unconsolidated joint ventures. The new standard is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted and shall be applied retrospectively where practicable. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the newRevenue Standard had no material impact on recognition of $85.3 million in gain on sale of real estate facilities during the nine months September 30, 2018.
Other recently issued accounting guidance on its consolidated financial statements.standards
In November, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18,Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) – Restricted Cash, which requires the statements of cash flows to explain the change during the period in the total cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents. TheThe new guidance also requires entities to reconcile such total to amounts on the balance sheets and disclose the nature of the restrictions. The guidancestandard is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and for interim periods therein,on January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The guidance must be adopted using a modified retrospective approach. The Company does not expectpermitted and requires the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In January, 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805) - Clarifying the Definition of a Business. Under the new guidance, a set of transferred assets and activities is not a business when substantially alluse of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets, which we believe will apply to substantially all of our future acquisitions of real estate facilities. Previously, such acquisitions were considered the acquisition of a business, and transaction costs of such acquisitions were expensed as incurred. Under the new guidance, transaction costs will instead be capitalized as part of the purchase price. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017.retrospective transition method. We early adopted the standard on January 1, 2017; however,new guidance during the adoption had no effect because we have not acquired any facilities since January 1, 2017.fourth quarter of 2017 and, accordingly, net cash used in investing activities decreased by $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, in the previous presentation, as compared to the current presentation.

(1) | Land, building and improvements, and accumulated depreciation, respectively, totaling $1.3 million, $9.7 million, and $7.2 million were reclassified as of December 31, 2017 to “properties held for sale, net,” representing a 194,000 rentable square foot flex business park located in Dallas, Texas. |
(2) | Disposals primarily represent the book value of tenant improvements that have been removed upon the customer vacating their space. |
The purchase price of acquired properties is allocated to land, buildings and improvements (including tenant improvements, unamortized lease commissions, acquired in-place lease values and tenantcustomer relationships, if any), intangible assets and intangible liabilities (see Note 2), based upon the relative fair value of each component, which are evaluated independently.
We must make significant assumptions in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which can affect the recognition and timing of revenue and depreciation and amortization expense. The fair value of land is estimated based upon, among other considerations, comparable sales of land within the same region. The fair value of buildings and improvements, tenant improvements and unamortized lease commissions are based on current market replacement costs and other market information. The amount recorded to acquired in-place leases is determined based on management’s assessment of current market conditions and the estimated lease-up periods for the respective spaces.
On June 8, 2018, we acquired two multi-tenant industrial parks aggregating 1.1 million rentable square feet in Springfield, Virginia, for a net purchase price of $143.8 million.

Equity stock
In addition to common and preferred stock, theThe Company is authorized to issue 100.0 million shares of Equity Stock. The Articles of Incorporation provide that Equity Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series and give the Board broad authority to fix the dividend and distribution rights, conversion and voting rights, redemption provisions and liquidation rights of each series of Equity Stock. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, no equity stock had been issued.

11. Stock compensation
Under various share-based compensation plans, PSB grants non-qualified options to purchase the Company’s common shares at a price not less than fair value on the date of grant, as well as restricted stock units (“RSUs”),RSUs, to certain directors, officers and key employees.
The service period for stock options and RSUs begins when (i) the Company and the recipient reach a mutual understanding of the key terms of the award, (ii) the award has been authorized, (iii) the recipient is affected by changes in the market price of our stock and (iv) it is probable that any performance conditions will be met, and ends when the stock option or RSU vests.
We account for forfeitures of share-based payments as they occur by reversing previously amortized share-based compensation expense with respect to grants that are forfeited in the period the employee terminates employment.
We amortize the fair value of awards at the beginning of the service period as compensation expense. For awards that are earned solely upon the passage of time and continued service, the entire cost of the award is amortized on a straight-line basis over the service period. For awards with performance conditions, the individual cost of each vesting is amortized separately over each individual service period (the “accelerated attribution” method).
In amortizing share-based compensation expense, we do not estimate future forfeitures in advance. Instead, we reverse previously amortized share-based compensation expense with respect to grants that are forfeited in the period the employee terminates employment.21
Stock Options
Stock options vest over a five-year period, expire 10 years after the grant date and the exercise price is equal to the closing trading price of our common shares on the grant date. Employees cannot require the Company to settle their award in cash. We use the Black-Scholes option valuation model to estimate the fair value of our stock options.options on the date of grant.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017,2018, respectively, we recorded $53,000$62,000 and $156,000$179,000 in compensation expense related to stock options as compared to $51,000$53,000 and $229,000$156,000 for the same periods in 2016.2017.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017,2018, 16,000 stock options were granted and 69,67629,925 options were exercised. A total of 175,979158,484 and 172,409 options were outstanding at September 30, 2017 (229,655 at2018 and December 31, 2016).2017, respectively.
Restricted Stock Units
RSUs generally vest ratably overgranted prior to 2016 are subject to a six-year vesting, with 20% vesting after year two, and 20% vesting after each of the next four years. RSUs granted during and subsequent to 2016 are subject to a five-year period fromvesting at the grant date.rate of 20% per year. The grantee receives dividends for each outstanding RSU equal to the per-share dividendsper share dividend received by our common shareholders. We expense any dividends previously paid upon forfeiture of the related RSU. Upon vesting, the grantee receives common shares equal to the number of vested RSUs, less common shares withheld in exchange for tax depositswithholdings made by the Company to satisfy the grantee’s statutory tax liabilities arising from the vesting. The fair value of our RSUs is determined based upon the applicable closing trading price of our common shares on the date of grant.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017,2018, respectively, we recorded $1.0 million and $2.6 million in compensation expense related to RSUs as compared to a net reversal of $521,000 and expense of $2.9 million in compensation expense related to RSUs, as compared to expense of $1.7 million and $8.5 million for the same periods in 2016. In conjunction with the departure of our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), the Company2017. We recorded a reversal of stock compensation expense of $1.9 million in RSU expense relatedtied to RSUs under our LTEIP (see below)a departure of a senior executive during the third quarter of 2017. The 2016 amount includes $2.0 million in additional RSU expense related to RSUs under our LTEIP expected to be issued to our former Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”).
During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, 110,7502018, 184,450 RSUs were granted, 15,806105,423 RSUs vested and 10,140 RSUs were forfeited and 76,994 RSUs vested.forfeited. This vesting resulted in the issuance of 43,22362,030 common shares. In addition, tax depositswithholdings totaling $5.0 million and $3.9 million, ($1.9 million for the same period in 2016)respectively, were made on behalf of employees in exchange for 43,393 and 33,771 common shares, respectively, withheld upon vesting.vesting for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017. A total of 162,643233,970 and 165,083 RSUs were outstanding at September 30, 2017 (144,693 at2018 and December 31, 2016).2017, respectively.
Effective March, 2014, the Company entered into a performance-based restricted stock unitRSU program, the Senior Management Long-Term Equity Incentive Program for 2014-2017 (“LTEIP”), with certain employees of the Company. Under the LTEIP, the Company established three levels of targeted restricted stock unitRSU awards, for certain employees, which would be earned only if the Company achieved one of three defined targets during 2014 to 2017. Under the LTEIP there iswas an annual award following the end of each of the four years in the program, with the award subject to and based on the achievement of total return targets during the previous year, as well as an award based on achieving total return targets during the cumulative four-year period 2014-2017. In the event the minimum defined target iswas not achieved for an annual award, the restricted stock unitsRSUs allocated to be awarded for such year arewere added to the restricted stock unitsRSUs that may be received if the four-year target iswas achieved. All restricted stock unitRSU awards under the LTEIP vest in four equal annual installments beginning from the date of award. Up to 94,150 restricted stock units would be awarded for each of the four years assuming achievement was met and up to 81,800 restricted stock units would be awarded for the cumulative four-year period assuming achievement was met. Compensation expense is recognized based on the restricted stock unitsRSUs expected to be awarded based on the target level that is expected to be achieved. The compensation expense and RSU counts with respect to the LTEIP are included in the aggregate RSU amounts disclosed above.
Senior management earned 145,350 shares of RSUs granted in March, 2018 as the maximum targets were achieved for the year ended December 31, 2017 and for the cumulative four-year period.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Forward-Looking Statements: Forward-looking statements, within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, are made throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. For this purpose, any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the foregoing, the words “may,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “expects,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “intends” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. There are a number of important factors that could cause the results of the Company to differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements, including but not limited to: (a) changes in general economic and business conditions; (b) decreases in rental rates or increases in vacancy rates/failure to renew or replace expiring leases; (c) tenant defaults; (d) the effect of the recent credit and financial market conditions; (e) our failure to maintain our status as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; (f) the economic health of our tenants;customers; (g) increases in operating costs; (h) casualties to our properties not covered by insurance; (i) the availability and cost of capital; (j) increases in interest rates and its effect on our stock price; and (k) other factors discussed under the heading “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2017. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that our objectives and plans will be achieved. Moreover, we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting such forward-looking statements, except as required by law.
Critical Accounting Policies:Policies and Estimates:
Our accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q. We believe the following are our critical accounting policies because they have a material impact on the portrayalrelate to income tax expense, accounting for acquired real estate facilities, allowance for doubtful accounts, impairment of our financial conditionlong-lived assets, and results,accrual for uncertain and they require us to make judgments and estimates about matters thatcontingent liabilities, each of which are inherently uncertain.more fully discussed below.
Income Tax Expense: We have elected to be treated as a REIT, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). As a REIT, we do not incur federal income tax on our REIT“REIT taxable incomeincome” that is fully distributed each year (for this purpose, certain distributions paid in a subsequent year may be considered), and if we meet certain organizational and operational rules. We believe we have met these REIT requirements for all periods presented herein. Accordingly, we have recorded no federal income tax expense related to our REIT“REIT taxable income.”
Our evaluation that we have met the REIT requirements could be incorrect, because compliance with the tax rules requires factual determinations, and circumstances we have not identified could result in noncompliance with the tax requirements in current or prior years. For any taxable year that we fail to qualify as a REIT and for which applicable statutory relief provisions did not apply, we would be taxed at the regular corporate rates on all of our taxable income for at least that year and the ensuing four years, we could be subject to penalties and interest, and our net income would be materially different from the amounts estimated in our consolidated financial statements.
Accounting for Acquired Real Estate Facilities: We estimate the fair values of the land, buildings, intangible assets and intangible liabilities for purposes of allocating the purchase price. Such estimates are based upon many assumptions and judgments, including (i) market rates of return and capitalization rates on real estate and intangible assets, (ii) building and material cost levels, (iii) comparisons of the acquired underlying land parcels to recent land transactions, (iv) estimated market rent levels and (v) future cash flows from the real estate and the existing tenantcustomer base. Others could come to materially different conclusions as to the estimated fair values, which would result in different depreciation and amortization expense, rental income, gains and losses on sale of real estate assets, and real estate and intangible assets.
20
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: TenantCustomer receivables consist primarily of amounts due for contractual lease payments, reimbursements of common area maintenance expenses, property taxes and other expenses recoverable from tenants.customers. Deferred rent receivable represents the amount that the cumulative straight-line rental income
23
recorded to date exceeds cash rents billed to date under the lease agreement. Determination of the adequacy of allowances for doubtful accounts requires significant judgments and estimates. Others could come to materially different conclusions regarding the adequacy of our allowance for doubtful accounts. Significant unreserved bad debt losses could materially impact our net income.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets: The analysis of impairment of our long-lived assets involves identification of indicators of impairment, projections of future operating cash flows and estimates of fair values or selling prices, all of which require significant judgment and subjectivity. Others could come to materially different conclusions. In addition, we may not have identified all current facts and circumstances that may affect impairment. Any unidentified impairment loss, or change in conclusions, could have a material adverse impact on our net income.
Accrual for Uncertain and Contingent Liabilities: We accrue for certain contingent and other liabilities that have significant uncertain elements, such as property taxes, performance bonuses and other operating expenses, as well as other legal claims and disputes involving customers, employees, governmental agencies and other third parties. We estimate such liabilities based upon many factors such as assumptions of past and future trends and our evaluation of likely outcomes. However, the estimates of known liabilities could be incorrect or we may not be aware of all such liabilities, in which case our accrued liabilities and net income could be misstated.materially different.
StrategicBusiness Overview
Our overall operating results are impacted primarily by the performance of our existing real estate facilities, which at September 30, 20172018 are comprised of 28.028.3 million rentable square feet of multi-tenant industrial, flex industrial and office properties concentrated in six states and a 95.0% interest in 395 apartments.a 395-unit multifamily apartment complex. Our multi-tenant commercial properties are located in markets that have experienced long-term economic growth with a particular concentration on small-and medium-size customers. Accordingly, a significant degree of management attention is paid to maximizing the cash flow from our existing real estate portfolio. We also Also, our strong and conservative capital structure allows us the flexibility to use debt and equity capital prudently to fund our growth, which allows us toacquire properties we believe will create long-term value, and fromvalue. From time to time we dispose ofsell properties which no longer fit within the Company’s strategic objectives.
We had 7.6 million rentable square feet that we reclassified from “flex” space in our December 31, 2017 annual report to “industrial” space at January 1, 2018 based upon a thorough review of our properties’ office to warehouse ratio. We believe the reclassification will assist investors to better understand our business operations.
Existing Real Estate Facilities: The operating results of our existing real estate facilities are substantially influenced by demand for rental space within our properties and our markets, which impacts occupancy, rental rates and capital expenditure requirements. We strive to maintain high occupancy levels while increasing rental rates and minimizing capital expenditures when market conditions allow, although the Company may decrease rental rates in markets where conditions require. Management’s initiatives and strategies with respect to our existing real estate facilities which are described in more detail in our December 31, 20162017 Form 10-K, includewhich includes incentivizing our personnel to maximize the return on investment for each lease transaction and providing a superior level of service to our customers.
Acquisitions of Real Estate Facilities: We also seek to grow our operations through acquisitions of facilities generally consistent with the Company’s focus on owning concentrated business parks with easily configurable space. In the third quarter of 2016,space and in markets and product types with favorable long-term return potential. On June 8, 2018, we acquired two multi-tenant office buildingsindustrial parks aggregating 226,0001.1 million rentable square feet in Rockville, MarylandSpringfield, Virginia, for a net purchase price of $13.3$143.8 million. The occupancy rate has increased from 18.5% onportfolio consists of 19 buildings and was 76.1% occupied as of the date of acquisition to 31.6% as of September 30, 2017. Theseacquisition. The 19 buildings are located within The Grove 270 (formerly Shady Grove Executive Park)in the Springfield/Newington industrial submarket where we already ownedown three substantially fully-leased buildings aggregating 352,000industrial parks totaling 606,000 square feet. We continue to seek to acquire additional facilities in our existing markets and generally in close proximity to our existing facilities; however, there can be no assurance that we will acquire additional facilities that meet our risk-adjusted return and underwriting requirements.
24
Development or redevelopmentRedevelopment of real estate facilities:Real Estate Facilities: We also may seek to redevelop our existing real estate. We own a large contiguous block of real estate (628,000 rentable square feet on 44.5 acres of land) located within an area known as The Mile in Tysons, Virginia. We demolished one of our existing office buildings inat The Mile and arebuilt a 395-unit multifamily building (“Highgate”) at a multi-family building (the “Highgate Development”), with completion in stages starting in May, 2017 through the fourth
21
quarter of 2017. The total estimated investment upon completion,cost, including the estimated fair value of existing land, will be approximately $117.2of $115.9 million.
While multi-familymultifamily real estate is not a core asset for us, we determined that multi-familymultifamily real estate represented a unique opportunity and the highest and best use of this parcel. We have partnered through a joint venture with a local developer and operator of multi-familymultifamily space in order to leverage their operational experience. See “Analysis of Items Not Included in Operating Income – Equity in loss of unconsolidated joint venture”Multifamily” below and NoteNotes 3 and 4 to our consolidated financial statements for more information on the Highgate Development. Highgate.
We do not consolidatecommenced consolidating Highgate beginning January 1, 2018. Prior to January 1, 2018, we accounted for our investment in the joint venture that holdsusing the Highgate Development;equity method and accordingly, reflected our share of net loss is reflected under “equity in loss of unconsolidated joint venture.”
We have an additional 123,000 square foot office building located within The Mile that we are seeking to demolish in order to construct another multi-family complexmultifamily property on the parcel. This parcel is reflected on our consolidated balance sheets as land and building held for development. The scope and timing of development of this site is subject to a variety of contingencies, including approval of entitlement.entitlements. We do not expect that development will commence prior to December 31, 2018.any earlier than the fourth quarter of 2019.
DispositionsSales of Real Estate Facilities: In 2014, we completed a plan to exit non-strategic markets in Sacramento California, Oregon and Arizona. We do not expect to exit any additional markets. However, we may from time to time dispose ofsell individual real estate assetsfacilities based on market conditions, fit with our existing portfolio, evaluation of long-term potential returns of markets or product types, or other reasons. On May 1, 2017,March 5, 2018, we disposedsold Corporate Pointe Business Park, a park consisting of Empire Commerce,five multi-tenant office buildings totaling 161,000 square feet, located in Orange County, California, for net proceeds of $41.7 million, which resulted in a two-building single-storygain of $26.8 million.
On April 18, 2018, we sold Orange County Business Center, a park consisting of five multi-tenant office buildings totaling 437,000 square feet located in Orange County, California, for net proceeds of $73.3 million, which resulted in a gain of $50.6 million.
On April 30, 2018, we sold Northgate Business Park, a park comprising 44,000consisting of seven multi-tenant flex buildings totaling 194,000 square feet located in Dallas, Texas, for net proceeds of $2.1$11.8 million, which resulted in a net gain of $1.2$7.9 million.
We have 107,000 rentable square feet of office product located in Orange County, California, held for sale as of September 30, 2018 and expect to complete the sale during the fourth quarter of 2018. The operations of the facilities we sold and expect to sell are presented below under “assets sold or held for sale.”
Certain Factors that May Impact Future Results
Impact of Inflation: Although inflation has not been significant in recent years, an increase in inflation could impact our future results, and the Company continues to seek ways to mitigate its potential impact. A substantial portion of the Company’s leases require tenantscustomers to pay operating expenses, including real estate taxes, utilities and insurance, as well as increases in common area expenses, partially reducing the Company’s exposure to inflation during each lease’s respective lease period.
Regional Concentration: Our portfolio is concentrated in eight regions, in six states. We have chosen to concentrate in these regions because we believe they have characteristics which enable them to be competitive economically, such as above average population growth, job growth, higher education levels and personal income, which we believe will produce better overall economic returns. Changes in economic conditions in these regions in the future could impact our future results.
25
Industry and TenantCustomer Concentrations: We seek to minimize the risk of industry or tenantcustomer concentrations. As of September 30, 2017,2018, excluding the asset held for sale, leases from our top 10 tenantscustomers comprised 10.3%9.4% of our annualized rental income, with only two tenants, Kaiser Permanente (1.0%) andone customer, the U.S. Government (4.3%(3.8%), representing more than 1%. In terms of industry concentration, 18.5%19.3% of our annualized rental income comes from Business Services; 10.4%business services, 11.5% from Warehouse, Distribution, Transportationwarehouse, distribution, transportation and Logistics;logistics, and 10%10.5% from Health Services.computer hardware, software and related services. No other industry group represents more than 10% of our annualized rental income.
TenantCustomer credit risk: We have historically experienced a low level of write-offs of uncollectible rents, with less than 0.5% of rental income written off eachin any year over the last six years. However, there can be no assurance that write offs may not increase because there is inherent uncertainty in a tenant’scustomer’s ability to continue paying rent and meet its full lease obligation. As of October 23, 2017,22, 2018, we had 69,00095,000 square feet of leased space occupied by four tenantstwo customers that are protected by Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. From time to time, tenantscustomers contact us, requesting early termination of their lease, reductions in space leased, or rent deferment or abatement.
22abatement, which we are not obligated to grant but will consider under certain circumstances.
Net Operating Income
We evaluate the performance of our business parks primarily based on Net Operating Income (“NOI”), a non-GAAP financial measure, because we believe NOI is an important measure of the value and performance of our real estate. We believe investors utilize NOI in a similar manner and for similar reasons. We define NOI is defined by the Company as Adjusted Rental Incomerental income less Adjusted Cost of Operations (described below) and. NOI excludes depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is excluded from NOIexpense because management and investors do not consider it important in valuing real estate or evaluating real estate performance becausesince depreciation and amortization expense assumes the value of real estate declines ratably from its historical cost based upon the passage of time, while we believe the value of real estate changes based upon cash flow and other market factors.
Adjusted Rental Income represents rental income, excluding material lease buyout payments, which we believe are not reflective of ongoing rental income.
Adjusted Cost of Operations represents cost of operations, excluding LTEIP amortization, which can vary significantly period to period based upon-theupon the performance of the whole company, rather than just property operations.
The Company’s calculation of NOI Adjusted Rental Income and Adjusted Cost of Operations may not be comparable to those of other companies and should not be used as an alternative to performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
See “Analysis of operating income” below for reconciliations of each of these measures to their closest analogous GAAP measure on our consolidated statements of income. Adjusted Rental Income is reconciled to rental income, Adjusted Cost of Operations is reconciled to cost of operations and Net Operating Income is reconciled to operating income.

Analysis of Same Park Adjusted Rental Income
Adjusted rentalRental income generated by the Same Park facilities increased 4.4%2.2% and 4.6% in2.3% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017,2018, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. These2017. The increases were due primarily to increased annualized realized rental income per occupied square foot and, during the nine month period,combined with an increase in weighted average occupancy.
We believe that high occupancies help maximize our rental income. Accordingly, we seek to maintain a weighted average occupancy over 90%.
28
During the first nine months of 2017,2018, most markets continued to reflect favorable conditions allowing for stable occupancy as well as increasing rental rates. With the exception of the Northern Virginia and Suburban Maryland markets, new rental rates for the Company improved over expiring rental rates on executed leases as economic conditions and tenant demand remained healthy.
Our future revenue growth will come primarily from potential increases in market rents allowing us to increase rent levels when leases are either renewed with existing tenantscustomers or re-leased to new tenants.customers. The following table sets forth the expirations of our existing leases in place at September 30, 2017 over the next five years in our Same Park portfolio at September 30, 2018 (dollars and square feet in thousands):

Renewals of leases with existing customers represented 62.1% of our leasing activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 represented renewals of leases with existing tenants.2018. See “Analysis of MarketSame Park Leasing Trends” below for further analysis of such datainformation on leasing trends on a by-marketby market basis.
Our ability to re-lease space on expired leases in a way that minimizes vacancy periods and the leaseachieves market rental rates that may be achieved are not predictable, because they will depend upon market conditions in the specific submarkets in which each of our properties are located.
Analysis of Same Park Adjusted Cost of Operations
Property taxes increased 5.8% and 4.9% duringAdjusted Cost of Operations generated by the Same Park facilities decreased 1.3% for the three months and increased 2.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively,2018 as compared to the same periods in the prior yearyear. The three month decrease was due primarily to lower repairs and maintenance costs, while the nine month increase was due primarily to higher property tax expense, higher repairs and maintenance costs and utility costs, as well as an increase in snow removal costs.
Property taxes decreased 1.1% for the three months and increased 2.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The nine month increase was due primarily to higher assessed values. We expect property taxestax growth in the fourth quarter of 2017future due primarily to approximate the amount for the third quarter of 2017. higher assessed values and changes in tax rates.
Utilities are dependent primarily upon energy prices and usage levels. Changes in usage levels are driven primarily by weather and temperature. Utilities decreased 1.7%increased 4.5% and 1.0% for2.9% during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017,2018, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The nine month increase was primarily due to a colder winter in 2018 in our Northern Virginia and Suburban Maryland markets and higher water consumption during summer months in 2018. It is difficult to estimate future utility costs, because weather, temperature and energy prices are volatile and not predictable.
26 However, based upon current trends and expectations regarding commercial electricity rates, we expect inflationary increases in rates in the future.
Repairs and maintenance increased 10.6% and 3.1% duringdecreased 5.1% for the three months and increased 2.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively,2018 as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The three month decrease was due to costs incurred during the third quarter of 2017 related to Hurricane Irma costs. The nine month increase was due to timing of repairs and rate increases from property service providers. Repairs and maintenance costs are dependent upon many
29
factors including weather conditions, which can impact repair and maintenance needs, inflation in material and labor costs and random events, and as a result are not readily predictable. We expect to incur incremental repairs and maintenance costs with respect to Hurricane Irma during the fourth quarter of 2017.
Snow removal decreasedincreased 73.4% during the nine months ended September 30, 20172018 as compared to the same period in 2016.the prior year. The nine month increase was due to a colder winter in 2018 in our Northern Virginia and Suburban Maryland markets. Snow removal costs are weather dependent and therefore not predictable.
Other expenses decreased 2.7% during3.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2017, and increased 1.4% during1.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 20172018 as compared to the same periods in 2016.the prior year. These costs are comprised of on site and supervisory personnel, property insurance and other expenses incurred in the operation of our properties. We expect increases in other expenses for the remainder of 2018 that are similar to the increases in the nine-month period.

The following tables set forth key statistical information with respect to ourAnalysis of Same Park leasing activities during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. Leasing Trends
As noted above, our past revenue growth has come from contractual annual inflators,rent increases, as well as re-leasing of space at current market rates. We believe the percentage difference between outgoing billed rent and incoming billed rent for leases executed (the “Rental Rate Change”) is useful in understanding trends in current market rates relative to our existing lease rates. The following tables summarize the Rental Rate Change and other key statistical information with respect to the Company’s leasing production by these eight regionsfor its Same Park facilities, on a regional basis, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20172018 (square feet in thousands):

During the first nine months of 2017,2018, most markets, with the exception of Northern Virginia and Suburban Maryland, continued to reflect favorable conditions allowing for stable occupancy as well as increasing rental rates. With the exception ofIn Northern Virginia and Suburban Maryland, new rental rates for the Company improved over expiring rental rates on executed leases as economic conditionsdeclined 9.7% and tenant demand remained healthy. Northern Virginia and Suburban Maryland continue to experience15.7%, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, reflecting continued soft market conditions as evidenced by continued pressure on occupancythat have persisted for several years due to, among other factors, federal government downsizing. To the extent that such trends continue in these markets, which comprised 30.8% of our Same Park rental income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and rental rates. Given lease expirations22.5% of 1.1 million square feet in Northern Virginia and 712,000 square feet in Suburban Marylandexpiring through December 31, 2018, the Company2019, we may continue to experience a decrease inface reduced rental income in these regions.markets.

NOI from the Non-Same Park facilities included $1.6 million and $2.0 million of two office buildings in Maryland, with 226,000 rentable square feetNOI from the 2018 acquisition for the three and occupancy of 31.6% atnine months ended September 30, 2017 (33.9%2018, respectively. Excluding the results from the 2018 acquisition, the three and nine month NOI increases from prior periods were tied to increases in occupancy at October 23, 2017).our 2016 acquisition.
We believe that our management and operating infrastructure allows us to generate higher NOI from newly acquired real estate facilities than was achieved by the previous owners. However, it can take 24 or more months for us to fully achieve the higher NOI, and the ultimate levels of NOI to be achieved can be affected by changes in general economic conditions. As a result, there can be no assurance that we will achieve our expectations with respect to these newly acquired real estate facilities.
We expect the Non-Same Park facilities to continue to provide increased NOI in 2018 as these facilities increase occupancy.
Multifamily: As of September 30, 2018, we have a 95.0% interest in Highgate, a 395-unit apartment complex. On January 1, 2018, we began to consolidate the joint venture due to changes to the joint venture agreement that gave the Company control of the joint venture. Prior to January 1, 2018, we accounted for our investment in the joint venture using the equity method and accordingly, reflected our share of net loss under “equity in loss of unconsolidated joint venture.”
Highgate began leasing activities during second quarter of 2017. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, Highgate generated $852,000 of NOI, consisting of $1.9 million in rental income and $1.0 million in Adjusted Cost of Operations, and $2.0 million of NOI, consisting of $5.1 million in rental income and $3.0 million in Adjusted Cost of Operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources |
This section should be read in conjunction with our consolidated statements of cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20172018 and 20162017 and the notes to our consolidated financial statements, which set forth the major components of our historical liquidity and capital resources. The discussion below sets forth the factors which we expect will affect our future liquidity and capital resources or which may vary substantially from historical levels.
Capital Raising Strategy: As a REIT, we generally distribute 100%substantially all of our “REIT taxable incomeincome” to our shareholders, which relative to a taxable C corporation, limits the amount of cash flow from operations that we can retain for investments. As a result, in order to grow our asset base, access to capital is important.
Our financial profile is characterized by strong credit metrics, including low leverage relative to our total capitalization and operating cash flows. We are a highly rated REIT, as rated by major rating agencies Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s. Our corporate credit rating by Standard and Poors is A-, while our preferred shares are rated BBB by Standard and Poors and Baa2 by Moodys. Our credit profile and ratings enable us to effectively access both the public and private capital markets to raise capital.
34
In order to maintain access to capital markets, we target a minimum ratio of FFO (as defined below) to combined fixed charges and preferred distributions of 3.0 to 1.0. Fixed charges include interest expense, and capitalized interest whileand preferred distributions include amounts paid to preferred shareholders and preferred unit holders.shareholders. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017,2018, the ratio of FFO to combined fixed charges and preferred distributions coverage ratiopaid was 5.05.3 to 1.0, excluding the Preferred Redemption Allocation.1.0.
We have a $250.0 million revolving Credit Facility that can be expanded to $400.0 million which expires in January, 2022. We use the Credit Facility along with bank term debt, as temporary “bridge” financing until we are able to raise longer term capital. Historically, we have funded our long-term capital requirements with retained operating cash flow and proceeds from the issuance of common and preferred securities. We will select among these sources of capital based upon availability, relative cost, the impact of constraints of certain forms of capital on our operations (such as covenants), as well as the desire for leverage.
Short-term Liquidity and Capital Resource Analysis: We believe that our net cash provided by our operating activities will continue to be sufficient to enable us to meet our ongoing requirements for debt service, capital expenditures and distributions to our shareholders for the foreseeable future.
As of September 30, 2017,2018, we had no balance outstanding on our Credit Facility.$8.7 million in cash. In the last five years, we have retained an average ofapproximately $40 to $50$60 million in operating cash flow per year. Retained operating cash flow represents cash flow provided by operating activities, less shareholder and unit holder distributions and capital expenditures. We expect to invest an additional $9.8 million with respect to the Highgate Development.
Potential future uses of capital in the next twelve months include the acquisition of additional real estate facilities, and potential future sources include the potential sale of real estate facilities.
Required Debt Repayment: As of September 30, 2017,2018, we havehad no debt outstanding on our Credit Facility. Our Credit Facility does not expire until January, 2022. We are in compliance with the covenants and all other requirements of our Credit Facility.
31
Capital Expenditures: We define recurring capital expenditures as those necessary to maintain and operate our real estate at its current economic value. Nonrecurring capital improvements include property renovations and expenditures related to repositioning acquisitions.
The following table sets forth our commercial capital expenditures paid for in the nine months ended September 30, 20172018 and 2016,2017, respectively, on an aggregate and per square foot basis:

The increasedecrease in Same Park recurring capital expenditures of $6.9$4.7 million, or 29.2%16.1%, was primarily due to transaction costs related to large renewals and leasing production in the Same2017. The decrease in Non-Same Park portfolio during 2017. Non-Same Parkrecurring capital expenditures are related to substantially completing the repositioning and lease-up of a facility we acquired in Maryland in 2016.2017.
In the last five years, our recurring capital expenditures have averaged generally between $1.10 and $1.80$1.72 per square foot, and 11.7% and 21.5%20.5% as a percentage of NOI.
Redemption of Preferred Stock: Historically, we have reduced our cost of capital by refinancing higher coupon preferred securities with lower coupon preferred securities. During May, 2017, ourOn January 3, 2018, we completed the redemption of the remaining 6.0% Series T preferred shares with a par valueoutstanding of $350.0$130.0 million became redeemable at par. In September, 2017, we called for a partial redemption of $220.0 million. Fundsusing funds received from our 5.25%5.20% Series XY preferred shares issued during September, 2017 will be used to complete this redemption on October 30,December, 2017.
32
At September 30, 2017,2018, our 5.75% Series U preferred shares, with a par value of $230.0 million, and our 5.70% Series V preferred shares, with a par value of $110.0 million, were redeemable at par. Redemption of such preferred shares will depend upon many factors, including the cost of capital. None of our preferred securities are redeemable at the option of the holders.
Investment in and Advances to Unconsolidated Joint Venture: We expect to invest an additional $9.8 million in the Joint Venture, in order to fund completion of the Highgate Development. We do not expect any significant further investment necessary following completion.
Acquisitions of real estate facilities: On June 8, 2018, we acquired two multi-tenant industrial parks aggregating 1.1 million rentable square feet in Springfield, Virginia, for a net purchase price of $143.8 million. We have acquired real estate facilities in the past, and we continue to seek to acquire additional real estate facilities,facilities; however, there is significant competition to acquire existing facilities and there can be no assurance as to the levelvolume of acquisition activity.
36
Disposition of real estate facilities and potential taxable capital gains: During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we may acquire.sold real estate facilities for net proceeds of $126.8 million. We are also seeking to sell 107,000 rentable square feet of office space in Orange County, California, which we expect to sell during the fourth quarter of 2018.
Development of real estate facilities: As noted above, we have an additional 123,000 square foot building located within The Mile that we are seeking to develop into another multi-family complex.multifamily property. There can be no assurance as to the timing or amount of any investment that may occur; however, we do not expect to incur any significant development costs on this potential project until at least December 2018.any earlier than the fourth quarter of 2019.
Repurchase of Common Stock: No shares of common stock were repurchased under the board-approved common stock repurchase program during the nine months ended September 30, 20172018 or the year ended December 31, 2016.2017. As of September 30, 2017,2018, management has the authorization to repurchase an additional 1,614,721 shares. However, we have no plans at this time to repurchase additional shares.
Requirement to Pay Distributions: For all periods presented herein, we have elected to be treated as a REIT, as defined in the Code. As a REIT, we do not incur federal income tax on our REIT“REIT taxable incomeincome” (generally, net rents and gains from real property, dividends and interest) that is fully distributed each year (for this purpose, certain distributions paid in a subsequent year may be considered), and if we meet certain organizational and operational rules. We believe we have met these requirements in all periods presented herein, and we expect to continue to elect and qualify as a REIT.
During the first quarter of 2017, the Board increased our quarterly dividend from $0.75 per common share to $0.85 per common share, which is an increase of $0.10 or 13.3% over the previous quarter’s distribution.
We paid REIT qualifying distributions of $107.1$114.7 million ($37.839.6 million to preferred shareholders and $69.4 million to common shareholders) and $102.4 million ($41.5 million to preferred shareholders and $60.9$75.1 million to common shareholders) during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.2018.
We estimate the annual distribution requirements with respect to our preferred shares outstanding at September 30, 2018 to be $51.8 million per year.
During the third quarter of 2018, the Board increased our quarterly dividend from $0.85 per common share to $1.05 per common share, which is an increase of $0.20, or 23.5%, over the previous quarter’s distributions. Our consistent, long-term dividend policy has been to distribute only our taxable income in order to maintain our REIT status.income. Future quarterly distributions with respect to the common shares will continue to be determined based upon our REIT distribution requirements and, after taking into consideration distributions to the preferred shareholders, will be funded with cash provided by operating activities.

Funds from Operations (“FFO”) and FFO per share are non-GAAP measures defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts and are considered helpful measures of REIT performance by REITs and many REIT analysts. FFO represents net income before real estate depreciation and amortization expense, gains or losses from sales and impairment charges, which are excluded because they are based upon historical real estate costs and assume that building values diminish ratably over time, while we believe that real estate values fluctuate due to market conditions. FFO per share represents FFO allocable to common and dilutive shares, divided by aggregate common and dilutive shares. FFO and FFO per share are not a substitute for net income or earnings per share. FFO is not a substitute for GAAP net cash flow in evaluating our liquidity or ability to pay dividends, because it excludes investing and financing activities presented on our consolidated statements of cash flows. In addition, other REITs may compute these measures differently, so comparisons among REITs may not be helpful.

We reviewbelieve our presentation of Core FFO per share to evaluateassists investors and analysts in evaluating our ongoingcomparative operating performance and we believe it is used by investors and REIT analysts in a similar manner.between reporting periods. However, Core FFO per share is not a substitute for net income per share. Because other REITs may not compute Core FFO per share in the same manner as we do, may not use the same terminology or may not present such a measure, Core FFO per share may not be comparable among REITs.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
To limit the Company’s exposure to market risk, the Company principally finances its operations and growth with permanent equity capital consisting of either common or preferred stock. The Company had no debt outstanding on its Credit Facility as of September 30, 2017.2018.
Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Credit Facility, which is subject to variable interest rates. See Notes 2 and 6 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding the terms, valuations and approximate principal maturities of the Company’s indebtedness, including the Credit Facility. Based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company, the difference between the carrying amount of debt and its fair value is insignificant.

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer who is also serving as actingand Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of September 30, 2017.2018. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2017,2018, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer who is also serving as actingand Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
There have not been any changes in the Company’sour internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 20172018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
The Company currently is not subject to any material litigationlegal proceedings other than ordinary routine litigation and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course ofincidental to its business.
