1. Organization and description of business

Organization

PS Business Parks, Inc. (“PSB” or the “Company”), a Maryland corporation, was organized in 1990. Effective May19,2021, following approval by its common and preferred stockholders, PSB reincorporated from the state of California to the state of Maryland.

On July 20, 2022 (the “Acquisition Date”), pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of April 24, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), a merger (the “Merger”) was completed between PSB and a direct subsidiary of Sequoia Parent LP, a Delaware limited partnership (“Parent”), with the Company surviving. As of September 30, 2021, PSB owned 79.0%a result of the common partnership unitsMerger, the Company became a subsidiary of Parent and certain of its affiliates, and PS Business Parks, L.P.L.P (the “OP”“Partnership”) remained a subsidiary of the Company. The Parent is an affiliate of Blackstone Real Estate Partners IX, L.P., which is an affiliate of Blackstone Inc. (“Blackstone”). The remaining common partnership units arestock of the Company is wholly owned by Public Storage (“PS”).

Public Storage Operating Partnership Interests
Pursuant to the terms and would own 41.5% (or 14.5 million shares)conditions of the outstanding sharesMerger Agreement, upon the Closing each partnership unit of the Company’s common stock if itPartnership (a “Partnership Unit”) that was issued and outstanding prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Partnership Merger Effective Time”) (other than units held by the Company, Parent, or any of their respective wholly owned subsidiaries) was automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to $182.25 (the “Per Company Share Merger Consideration”), less any applicable withholding taxes, which represented $187.50 per share of Common Stock as reduced by a $5.25 per share cash dividend paid in connection with the Closing (the “Closing Cash Dividend”) in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. At the Partnership Merger Effective Time, each Partnership Unit owned by the Company or any of its subsidiaries immediately prior to the Partnership Merger Effective Time remained outstanding as a Partnership Unit of the Partnership held by the Company or the relevant subsidiary.
As a result of the completion of the Merger, an aggregate of approximately 21% of the Partnership’s issued and outstanding limited partnership interests were directly owned by Parent and certain of its affiliates (other than the Company) (the “Parent Partners”). Pursuant to a Distribution and Contribution Agreement, immediately following the completion of the Merger, the Partnership redeemed its commonall of such limited partnership units in exchange for sharesthe distribution (the “Redemption and Distribution”) to the Parent Partners of common stock.

certain subsidiaries of the Partnership which held assets comprised of 58 properties located in California, Washington and Virginia (the “Non-Core Portfolio”). As a result of the Redemption and Distribution, the Company (directly or indirectly) owns 100% of the Partnership. Total consideration for the exchange was $1,295,217, which represents the fair values as determined between us and our Parent Partners, a related party, on the transaction date. No gain or loss was recognized in connection with this transaction. We accounted for this transaction as a non-cash equity distribution in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Description of business

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, industrial-flex and low-rise suburban office space.

Note 2. Summary of significant accounting policies

Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of presentation

Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PSB and its subsidiaries, including the OP and its consolidated joint ventures. All significant inter-company balances and transactionsConsolidated Financial Statements have been eliminatedprepared in the consolidated financial statements. The financial statements are presented on an accrual basis in accordanceconformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all ofas established by the information and footnotes required by GAAP for audited financial statements.Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) including modifications issued under Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring accruals)adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating
The Merger was accounted for as a business combination because substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired was not concentrated in a single identifiable asset or group of similar identifiable assets. The Parent elected to apply pushdown accounting. Accordingly, the purchase price of the Merger has been allocated to the Company’s assets and liabilities based upon their estimated fair values at the Acquisition Date in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. Costs related to the Merger have been expensed as incurred and classified within Merger costs in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, totaling $37,266, $94,805, and $100,952 for the period from July 20, 2022 through September 30, 2022, the period from July 1, 2022 through July 19, 2022, and the period from January 1, 2022 through July 19, 2022, respectively. The Company engaged a third-party valuation firm to assist in determination of the fair values of tangible and intangible assets acquired. As used herein, the term “Predecessor” refers to the financial position and results of operations of the Company prior to the Acquisition Date. The term “Successor” refers to the financial position and results of operations of the Company on or after the Acquisition Date.
Upon acquisition of a rental property that is accounted for as a business combination, the Company allocates the purchase price, of each acquired property based upon the fair value of the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which generally include tangible assets, consisting of land, building, building improvements, tenant improvements, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, generally consisting of above-and below-market leases, in-place leases, and origination costs associated with in-place leases. In estimating the fair value of tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired, the Company considers information obtained about the property during its due diligence and marketing and leasing activities, and utilizes appropriate discount and capitalization rates, estimates of replacement costs net of depreciation, and available market information. The values of above-and below-market leases are recorded to Lease-related intangible assets, net and Lease-related intangible liabilities, net, respectively, in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized as either a decrease (in the case of above-market leases) or an increase (in the case of below-market leases) to rental revenue over the remaining term of the associated tenant lease. The values associated with in-place leases are recorded in Lease-related intangible assets, net in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized to depreciation and amortization expense over the remaining lease term.
In a business combination, the initial allocation of the purchase price is considered preliminary and may change upon final determination of the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The final determination must occur within one year of the acquisition date.
The Company performs the following procedures for properties it acquires:
Estimate the value of the property “as if vacant” as of the acquisition date;
Calculate the value and associated life of above and below market leases on a tenant-by-tenant basis. The difference between the contractual rental rates and the Company’s estimate of market rental rates is measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the leases (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired);
Estimate the fair value of land acquired based upon relevant adjusted land sales comparable;
Estimate the fair value of the tenant improvements, legal expenses and leasing commissions incurred to obtain the leases and calculate the associated useful life for each;
Estimate the intangible value of the in-place leases and their associated useful lives on a tenant-by-tenant basis;
Estimate the carrying values of other assets and liabilities approximate fair value due to their short term nature and credit risk;
Identify the fair value of assets to be sold within one year, and
Allocate the purchase consideration of each acquired property based upon the fair value of the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

Reclassifications
As a result of the Merger discussed in Note 1 and the election to apply pushdown accounting, the Company also aligned its accounting policies with that of the Parent. Accordingly, certain prior year amounts in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. As of December 31, 2021, the reclassifications represent changes to aggregation and presentation of financial information and resulted in zero change to total assets and zero change to total liabilities. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, are not necessarily indicativeit resulted in $30 and $449 changes to total revenue, $15 and $222 changes in total expenses, and $15 and $227 changes in total other income (expense), respectively. There was no change to net income as historically reported.
Principles of Consolidation
The Company’s policy is to consolidate all entities in which it owns more than 50% of the results that may be expected foroutstanding voting interest unless it does not control the year ended December 31, 2021. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included inentity. It is also the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-Kpolicy to consolidate any variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which the year ended December 31, 2020.

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 partnershipCompany 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, generallyas defined as

havingby GAAP. The Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary when it has (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impactingimpact the economic performance of the entity, and (ii) either the obligation (or right) to absorb losses (or receive benefits) of the entity that could potentially be significant.

Investments in entities in which the Company does not control but which it has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies are presented under the equity method. Investments in entities that the Company does not control and over which it does not exercise significant influence are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, as appropriate. The Company’s ability to correctly assess control over an entity affects the presentation of these investments in the Consolidated Financial Statements. The portions of consolidated entities not owned by the Company are presented as noncontrolling interests as of and during the periods presented. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates, judgments and assumptions are required in a number of areas, including, but not limited to, evaluating the impairment of long-lived assets and investments, allocating the purchase price of acquired properties, determining the fair value of debt and incentive compensation. These estimates, judgments and assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Investments in Real Estate
Property and improvements, including interest and other costs capitalized during construction and development, are included in Investments in real estate, net and are stated at cost. Property and improvements, excluding land, are depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives by asset category are as follows:
Estimated useful life
Buildings10-40 years
Building equipment and fixtures5-10 years
Land and building improvements10-15 years
Tenant improvementsShorter of the asset's useful life or the noncancelable term of lease
Expenditures for ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Renovations and improvements, which improve or extend the useful life of the assets, are capitalized.
Capitalization of Costs
During the land development and construction periods of qualifying projects, the Company capitalizes interest costs, insurance, real estate taxes and general and administrative costs of the personnel performing the development, renovation and rehabilitation if such costs are incremental and identifiable to a specific activity to ready the asset for its intended use. The Company capitalizes transaction costs related to the acquisition of land for future development and operating properties that qualify as asset acquisitions. The Company capitalizes incremental costs incurred to successfully originate a lease that result directly from obtaining a lease and would also not have been incurred if the lease had not been obtained. In assessing the amount of direct and indirect costs to be capitalized, allocations are made based on estimates of the actual amount of time spent in each activity. The Company does not capitalize any costs attributable to downtime or to unsuccessful projects.
Leasing costs that meet the requirements for capitalization are presented as a component of Lease-related intangible assets, net in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and all other capitalized costs are included in the investment basis of the real estate assets.
Acquisition of Real Estate
In accordance with the guidance for business combinations, the Company determines whether a transaction or other event is a business combination, which requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute a business. If the assets acquired are not a business, the Company would account for the transaction or other event as an asset acquisition. The Company’s acquisitions of investment properties are accounted for as asset acquisitions, as substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is typically concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets. When acquisitions are treated as asset acquisitions, the related transaction costs are capitalized.
Disposition of Real Estate
The Company assesses whether a property is considered held for sale based on the criteria in ASC 360 Property, Plant, and Equipment (“ASC 360”). The Company generally classifies certain properties and related assets and liabilities as held for sale when the sale of an asset has been duly approved by management, a legally enforceable contract has been executed and the buyer’s due diligence period, if any, has expired and a non-refundable deposit has been received. If a property is considered held for sale, a provision for loss is recognized if the fair value of the property less the estimated cost to sell is less than its carrying amount. Depreciation and amortization expense cease once a property is considered held for sale. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, zero and 12 properties were classified as held for sale, respectively.
11


Table of Contents
The Company’s sales of real estate are generally considered to be sales to non-customers, requiring the Company to identify each distinct non-financial asset promised to the buyer. The Company determines whether the buyer obtains control of the non-financial assets, achieved through the transfer of the risks and rewards of ownership of the non-financial assets.
The Company recognizes gains on the disposition of real estate when the recognition criteria have been met, generally at the time the risks and rewards and title have transferred, and we no longer have substantial continuing involvement with the real estate sold. The Company recognizes gains or losses from the disposition of real estate when known as Gain (loss) on sale of real estate, net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company periodically assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of its real estate may be impaired. When impairment indicators exist, the Company’s properties are evaluated for impairment. A property’s value is considered impaired if the sum of expected future cash flows (on an undiscounted basis) over the anticipated holding period is less than the property’s carrying value. Upon determination that an impairment exists, properties are reduced to their fair value.
The evaluation of future cash flows is highly subjective and is based in part on the Company’s assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates, capital requirements, and holding periods. These assumptions could differ materially from actual results in future periods. Should circumstances change, and the Company shortens the expected holding period for an asset or group of assets, an impairment loss may be recognized, and such loss could be material. During the periods presented, no impairment was recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Impairment of Real Estate Assets Classified as Held for Sale
A property is classified as held for sale when all of the accounting criteria for a plan of sale have been met. Upon classification as held for sale, the Company recognizes an impairment charge, if necessary, to lower the carrying amount of the real estate asset to its estimated fair value less cost to sell. The determination of fair value can involve significant judgments and assumptions. The Company develops key assumptions based on the contractual sales price. If this information is not available, the Company uses estimated replacement costs or estimated cash flow projections that utilize estimated discount and capitalization rates. These estimates are subject to uncertainty and therefore require significant judgment by the Company. The Company reviews all assets held for sale each reporting period to determine whether the existing carrying amounts are fully recoverable in comparison to their estimated fair values less costs to sell.
Deferred Leasing Costs
Deferred leasing costs consist primarily of costs incurred to execute new and renewal tenant leases, primarily costs paid to third parties. Deferred leasing costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. The amortization of deferred leasing costs is included in the line item Depreciation and amortization in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Deferred Financing Costs
The Company defers fees and direct costs incurred to obtain financing, which is reflected as a component of Debt, net within the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Deferred financing costs are amortized to interest expense using the effective rate method, which approximates the effective interest method, over the term of the debt to which they apply. Unamortized deferred financing costs are charged to interest expense when the related financing is repaid prior to its scheduled maturity date.
Revenue Recognition
The Company leases its operating properties to customers under agreements that are classified as operating leases. Rental revenue primarily consists of base rent arising from tenant leases and tenant reimbursements of property operating expenses related to common area maintenance, real estate taxes, and other recoverable costs included in lease agreements.
The Company begins to recognize revenue for leases that are assumed upon the acquisition of the related property or when a tenant takes possession of the leased space for a new lease.
If a lease provides for tenant reimbursement of building operating expenses, the Company recognizes revenue associated with the recovery of those building operating expenses as those expenses are incurred.
12


Table of Contents
The Company records rental revenue on a straight-line basis as it is earned during the lease term. Certain leases provide for tenant occupancy during periods for which no rent is due or where minimum rent payments change during the lease term. Accordingly, a receivable is recorded representing the difference between the straight-line rent and the rent that is contractually due from the tenant over the contractual lease term. These amounts are classified as Tenant and other receivables in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. When a property is acquired, the terms of existing leases are considered to commence as of the acquisition date for purposes of this calculation. As a result of the election of pushdown accounting for the Merger, the Acquisition Date was used as commencement date for purposes of active leases that existed as of that date.
Noncontrolling Interests
Noncontrolling interests represent the share of consolidated entities owned by third parties. The Company recognizes each noncontrolling holder’s respective share of the estimated fair value of the net assets at the date of formation or acquisition. Noncontrolling interests are subsequently adjusted for the noncontrolling holder’s share of additional contributions, distributions and their share of the net earnings or losses of each respective consolidated entity. The Company allocates net income or loss to noncontrolling interests based on the weighted average ownership interest during the period. The net income or loss that is not attributable to the Company is reflected in the line item Net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests within the Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of the Acquisition Date, noncontrolling interest was stepped up to fair value as a result of pushdown accounting.
Tenant and Other Receivables
The Company provides for potentially uncollectible accounts on tenant and other receivables based on analysis of the risk of loss on specific accounts. The analysis places particular emphasis on past due accounts and considers information such as the nature and age of the receivable, the payment history of the tenant or other debtor, the financial condition of the tenant and the Company’s assessment of its ability to meet its lease obligations, the basis for any disputes, and the status of related lease negotiations.
The Company’s determination of the adequacy of its allowances for tenant receivables includes a binary assessment of whether or not the amounts due under a tenant’s lease agreement are probable of collection. For such amounts that are deemed probable of collection, revenue continues to be recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For such amounts that are deemed not probable of collection, revenue is recorded as the lesser of (i) the amount which would be recognized on a straight-line basis or (ii) cash that has been received from the tenant, with any tenant and deferred rent receivable balances charged as a direct write-off against rental income in the period of the change in the collectability determination.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents represent cash held in banks, cash on hand, and liquid investments with maturities at date of purchase of three months or less.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash primarily consists of reserves for certain capital improvements, leasing, interest and real estate tax and insurance payments as required by certain debt obligations.
Income and Other Taxes
The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT. This, along with the nature of the operations of its operating properties, resulted in no provision for federal income taxes at the Company level. In addition, the Partnership generally is not liable for federal income taxes as the partners recognize their allocable share of income or loss in their tax returns; therefore no provision for federal income taxes has been made at the Partnership level. The Company generally only incurs certain state and local income, excise and franchise taxes. The Company has elected taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) status for certain of its corporate subsidiaries and, as a result, these entities will incur both federal and state income taxes on any taxable income of such entities after consideration of any net operating losses.
13


Table of Contents
The Company accounts for deferred income taxes using the asset and liability method and recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements or tax returns. Under this method, the Company determines deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Any increase or decrease in the deferred tax liability that results from a change in circumstances, and that causes management to change its judgment about expected future tax consequences of events, is included in the tax provision when such changes occur. Deferred income taxes also reflect the impact of operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. A valuation allowance is provided if the Company believes it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Any increase or decrease in the valuation allowance that results from a change in circumstances, and that causes management to change its judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax asset, is included in the tax provision when such changes occur.
The Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if applicable, related to uncertain tax positions as part of income tax benefit or expense.
Derivatives and Hedging Activities
The Company buys or sells derivative financial instruments to limit exposure to changes in interest rates on variable rate debt. The Company does not use derivative instruments for speculative or trading purposes. None of the Company’s interest rate caps or swaps are currently or have been designated as hedges for accounting purposes. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value and are recorded in the line items Prepaid expenses and other assets and Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Changes in the fair value of our derivative financial instruments are marked to market through earnings each quarter and are reflected in Interest income (expense) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Notional principal amounts are used to express the volume of these transactions, but the cash requirements and amounts subject to credit risk are substantially less. Parties to interest rate cap or swap agreements are subject to market risk for changes in interest rates and credit risk in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty. The Company does not require any collateral under these agreements but deals only with highly rated institutional counterparties and expects that they will meet their obligations.
Fair Value Measurements
Various inputs are used in determining the fair value of derivative instruments presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company classifies the inputs as follows:
Level 1—Quoted unadjusted prices for identical instruments in active markets to which the Company has access at the date of measurement.
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 all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. Level 2 inputs are those in markets for which there are few transactions, the prices are not current, little public information exists or instances where prices vary substantially over time or among brokered market makers.
Level 3—Model derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. Unobservable inputs are those inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions that market participants would use to price the asset or liability based on the best available information.
Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis. The Company estimates the fair value of its financial instruments using available market information and valuation methodologies management believes to be appropriate for these purposes. In connection with the Merger, the preferred stocks were valued using quoted market prices in active markets (Level 1).
The fair value of the Company’s derivatives was determined by management, based on valuation information prepared by an independent third party. Their fair value model incorporates credit risk and changes in credit risk to determine a credit valuation adjustment. This model is based on the applicable forward curve as a reflection of the market’s current expectation of payments discounted at market factors. The Company classifies these valuations within the Level 2 fair value hierarchy.
14


Table of Contents
Under interest rate cap agreements, the Company makes initial premium payments to the counterparties in exchange for the right to receive payments from them if interest rates exceed specified levels during the agreement period. Notional principal amounts are used to express the volume of these transactions, but the cash requirements and amounts subject to credit risk are substantially less. Parties to interest rate cap agreements are subject to market risk for changes in interest rates and credit risk in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty. The Company does not require any collateral under these agreements but deals only with highly-rated institutional counterparties and expects that they will meet their obligations.
The Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Although the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties, the Company assesses the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives.
Fair Value Measurements on a Nonrecurring Basis. Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis generally consist of real estate assets and investments in unconsolidated equity investments that were subject to impairment charges related to the Company’s change of intent to sell the investments and through its recoverability analysis. The Company estimates fair value based on expected sales prices in the market (Level 2) or by applying the income approach methodology using a discounted cash flow analysis (Level 3)
Acquired lease intangible assets: The Company estimated the fair value of its above-market and below-market in-place leases based on the present value (using a discount rate that reflects the risk associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over the remaining non-cancelable term of the leases. Any below-market renewal options are also considered in the in-place lease values. This valuation methodology is based on Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy.
In-place lease liabilities: The Company estimated the fair value of its in-place leases using independent and internal sources, which are methods similar to those used by independent appraisers. Factors we consider in our analysis include an estimate of costs to execute similar leases including tenant improvements, leasing commissions and foregone costs and rent received during the estimated lease-up period as if the space was vacant. This valuation methodology is based on Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The Company estimates the fair value of its debt, net by discounting the future cash flows using rates and borrowing spreads currently available to the Company (Level 3).
Segment Reporting
The Company currently operates in a single reportable operating segment, which includes the acquisition, leasing, and ownership of logistics properties. There is an immaterial amount of non logistics properties that do not meet the quantitative thresholds necessary to require reporting as a separate segment. The company’s chief operation decision maker assesses, measures, and reviews the operating financial results at the consolidated level for the entire portfolio.
Variable Interest Entities
The Company has equity interests in certain entities that primarily own and operate properties or hold land for development. The Company consolidates those entities that are considered to be VIEs where the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company (i) evaluates the sufficiency of the total equity investment at risk, (ii) reviews the voting rights and decision- making authority of the equity investment holders as a group and whether there are limited partners (or similar owning entities) that lack substantive participating or kick out rights, guaranteed returns, protection against losses, or capping of residual returns within the group and (iii) establishes whether activities within the entities are on behalf of an investor with disproportionately few voting rights in making this VIE determination.
To the extent that the Company owns interests in a VIE and (i) has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and (ii) has the obligation or rights to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits fromthat could potentially be significant to the VIE.

We account for investments in entities that are not VIEs that we have significant influence over, but do not control, usingVIE, then the equity method of accountingCompany would be determined to be the primary beneficiary and for investment in entities that we control, we consolidate. We do not consider the joint venture entity that owns Highgate at The Mile a VIE, but wewould consolidate the entity asVIE. At each reporting period, the Company has control overre-assesses the joint venture. See Note 3 for more information relatingconclusions as to this joint venture arrangement.which, if any, party within the VIE is considered the primary beneficiary.

We have

The Company has a 98.2% interest in Brentford at The Mile, a planned 411-unit multifamily apartment complex (the “Brentford Joint Venture”). An unrelated real estate development company (the “JV Partner”) holds the remaining 1.8% interest. Based on management’s analysis of the joint venture and certain related agreements, wethe Company determined Brentford Joint Venture is a VIE because (a) Brentford Joint Venture does not have sufficient equity at risk to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties, and (b) there are no substantive kick-out rights. The Company has also concluded we haveit has control over the Brentford Joint Venture as weit (a) areis the managing member of the Brentford Joint Venture, (b) havehas designated decision making power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the economic performance of the Brentford Joint Venture, and (c) havehas a 98.2% economic interest in the investment. Thus, we determined the Brentford Joint Venture is a VIE, and that we are the primary beneficiary. As such, we consolidate thebeneficiary of Brentford Joint Venture, and the related land and development costs of $46.5 million and $15.1 million were included in land and building held for development, net on our consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.Venture. The assets of the Brentford Joint Venture may only be used to settle obligations of the Brentford Joint Venture and the creditors of the Brentford Joint Venture have no recourse to the general credit of the Company. See Note 4 for more information relating to this joint venture arrangement.

PS, the sole limited partner in the OP, has no power to direct the activities

The following table presents a summary of the OP. PSB is the primary beneficiary and has control over the OP as it has the exclusive responsibility under the Operating Partnership Agreement to manage and conduct the business 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

Noncontrolling interests represent (i) PS’s noncontrolling interest in the OP through its ownership of 7,305,355 common partnership units, (ii) the JV Partner’s 5.0% interest in our consolidated joint venture that owns Highgate at The Mile, and (iii) the JV Partner’s 1.8% interest in our consolidated joint venture formed to develop Brentford at The Mile. See Note 7 for further information on noncontrolling interests.

Use of estimates

The preparationfinancial data 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.

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:


9


Table of Contents

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 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 balances due from various customers. Balances that the Company expects to become uncollectible are 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.

Carrying values of the Company’s Credit Facility (as defined in Note 6) approximate fair value. The characteristics of the Credit Facility, market data and other comparative metrics utilized in determining these fair values are “Level 2” inputs.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash per the consolidated statements of cash flow to the corresponding financial statement line items in the consolidated balance sheets (in thousands):

Real estate facilities

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. Direct 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 provide benefit for a period greater than two years 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, for leases with terms greater than one year are capitalized and depreciated over the corresponding lease term.

Table of Contents

Property held for sale or development

Real estate is classified as held for sale 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 it will be developed to an alternate use. Property held for sale or development is not depreciated.

Intangible assets/liabilities

When we acquire real estate facilities, an intangible asset is recorded in other assets for leases where the in-place rent is higher than market rents, and an intangible liability is recorded in 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, 2021, the value of above-market in-place rents resulted in net intangible assets of $0.8 million, net of $11.5 million of accumulated amortization, and the value of below-market in-place rents resulted in net intangible liabilities of $2.8 million, net of $12.8 million of accumulated amortization. As of December 31, 2020, the value of above-market in-place rents resulted in net intangible assets of $1.2 million, net of $11.1 million of accumulated amortization, and the value of below-market in-place rents resulted in net intangible liabilities of $2.2 million, net of $12.2 million of accumulated amortization.

Additionally, when we acquire real estate facilities, the value of in-place lease intangible (i.e., customer lease-up costs) is recorded in other assets and is amortized to depreciation and amortization expense over the respective remaining lease term. As of September 30, 2021, the value of acquired in-place lease intangible resulted in net intangible assets of $6.4 million, net of $9.4 million of accumulated amortization. As of December 31, 2020, the value of acquired in-place leases resulted in net intangible assets of $5.3 million, net of $7.2 million of accumulated amortization.

As of September 30, 2021, the value of our right-of-use (“ROU”) assets relating to our existing ground lease arrangements,VIE included in “other assets” on our consolidated balance sheets and the corresponding liability included under “accrued and other liabilities,” was $1.4 million, net of $0.3 million of accumulated amortization. As of December 31, 2020, the value of our ROU assets and related liability relating to our ground lease arrangements was $1.5 million, net of $0.2 million of accumulated amortization. The ground leases expire in 2029 and 2030 and do not have options to extend. As of September 30, 2021, the remaining lease terms were 8.0 years and 8.3 years. Lease expense for these ground leases is recognized in the period the applicable costs are incurred, and the monthly lease amount for these operating leases is constant and without contractual increases throughout the remaining terms.

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 expected net proceeds from disposal.

NaN impairment charges were recorded in any period presented herein.

Note 3. Investments in Real Estate
The following comprise the aggregate rent to be collected (including the impact of escalators and concessions) under leases ratably throughout the non-cancellable lease term on a “straight-line” basis, commencing when the customer takes control of the leased space. Cumulative straight-line rent recognized in excess of amounts billed per the lease term is presented as “deferred rent receivable” on our consolidated balance sheets. The Company presents reimbursements from customers forCompany’s real estate taxes and other recoverable operating expenses under a single lease component presentation as the timing and patterninvestments:

Depreciation expense of transfer of such reimbursements are the same as base rent, and the combined single component of such leases are classified as operating leases. Accordingly, the Company recognizes such variable lease payments resulting from the reimbursements from customers forinvestments in real estate taxeswas $61,830, $4,626 and other recoverable operating expenses as rental income in$23,857 for the period from July 20, 2022 through September 30, 2022, the applicable costs are incurred. Property management fees are recognized in the period earned as other income.

The Company monitors the collectability of its receivable balances, including deferred rent receivable balances, on an ongoing basis. The Company writes off uncollectible customer receivable balances, including deferred rent receivable balances, as a reduction to rental income in the period such balances are no longer probable of being collected. Therefore, recognition of rental income is limited to the lesser of the amount of cash collected or rental income reflected on a “straight-line” basis, plus any accruable variable lease payments for those customer receivable balances. The Company wrote-off accounts receivable, net of recoveries,from July 1, 2022 through July 19, 2022, and deferred rent receivable of $0.0 million and $0.1 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. Depreciation expense of investments in real estate was $61,830, $50,557 and $0.0 million and $0.3 million, respectively,$69,356 for the nine months endedperiod from July 20, 2022 through September 30, 2021.

The Company recognized revenue2022, the period from its lease arrangements aggregating to $110.4 millionJanuary 1, 2022 through July 19, 2022, and $103.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $327.9 million and $310.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, and 2020, respectively. This revenue consisted primarily of rental income from operating leases and the related variable lease payments resulting from reimbursements of property operating expenses. Base rental income was $83.6 million and $79.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $249.4 million and $238.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Variable lease payments, consisting primarily of reimbursement of property operating expenses, were $26.8 million and $24.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $78.4 million and $72.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

In April 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a Staff Question-and-Answer (“Lease Modification Q&A”) to respond to frequently asked questions about accounting for lease concessions related to the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic. Under existing lease guidance, an entity would have to determine, on a lease by lease basis, if a lease concession contained a lease modification which would be accounted for under the lease modification framework, or if a lease concession was an enforceable right or obligation that existed in the original lease, which would be accounted for outside the lease modification framework. The Lease Modification Q&A provides that, to the extent that cash flow after the lease concessions are substantially the same, or less than, the cash flow previously required by the existing lease, an entity is not required to evaluate each contract to determine whether a concession provided by a lessor to a lessee in response to the COVID-19 pandemic is a lease modification. Instead, an entity can account for such lease concessions either (i) as if they were part of the enforceable rights and obligations of the parties under the existing lease contract; or (ii) as a lease modification. Based on the Lease Modification Q&A, an entity is not required to account for all lease

concessions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic under one elected option; however, the entity is required to apply the elected option consistently to leases with similar characteristics and in similar circumstances.

In accordance with the Lease Modification Q&A, the Company has elected to account for lease concessions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic as a lease modification if the cash flow after these lease concessions is substantially the same, or less than, the cash flow previously required by the existing lease. The Company records rent deferrals and rent abatements in deferred rent receivable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and will recognize these amounts over the remainder of the respective lease terms. For lease concessions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic that modified the terms and substantially changed the underlying cash flow of the existing lease for the remaining term, the Company also accounts for such concessions as a lease modification.

During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company agreed to defer $0.1 million and abate $0.1 million of billed rental income, which was significantly lower than the $1.7 million of rent deferrals and $0.3 million of rent abatements granted at the initial onset of the COVID-19 pandemic during the three months ended September 30, 2020. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company granted $0.4 million of rent deferrals and $0.3 million of rent abatements. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company entered into rent relief agreements consisting of $6.1 million of rent deferrals and $1.6 million of rent abatements. As of September 30, 2021, the 340 current customers that received rent relief account for 9.6% of rental income. Also as of September 30, 2021, the Company had collected $4.5 million of rent deferral repayment, representing 99.9% of the amounts scheduled to be repaid through September 2021. The duration and severity of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the economy are uncertain and are likely to impact collectability of certain customers’ rent receivable balances in the future. The Company has taken into account the current financial condition of its tenants, including consideration of COVID-19 impacts, in its estimation of its uncollectible accounts and deferred rents receivable at September 30, 2021. The Company is closely monitoring the collectability of such rents and will adjust future estimations as appropriate as further information becomes known.

Sales of real estate facilities

Sales 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 when we have collected payment and the attributes of ownership, such as possession and control of the asset, have been transferred to the buyer. If a contract for sale includes obligations to provide goods or services to the buyer, an allocated portion of the contract price is recognized as revenue as the related goods or services are transferred to the buyer.

General and administrative expense

General and administrative expense includes executive and other compensation, corporate office expenses, professional fees, 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 U.S. federal corporate income tax if we distribute all of our “REIT taxable income” each year, and if we meet certain organizational and operational requirements. We believe we have met these REIT requirements for all periods presented herein. Accordingly, we have recorded 0 U.S. federal corporate income tax expense related to our “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, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we did 0t recognize any tax benefit for uncertain tax positions.

Accounting for preferred equity issuance costs

We record preferred equity 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 stockholders to the preferred stockholders in the amount of the original issuance costs, and we reclassify the redemption value from equity to liabilities, when we call preferred stock for redemption, with such liabilities relieved once the preferred stock is redeemed.

Net income per share of common stock

Notwithstanding the presentation of income allocations on our consolidated statements of income, net income is allocated to (a) preferred stockholders, for distributions paid or payable, (b) preferred stockholders, to the extent redemption value exceeds the related carrying value, (c) our joint venture partner in proportion to its percentage interest in the joint ventures, to the extent the consolidated joint ventures produce net income or loss during the period and (d) restricted stock 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 stockholders, respectively, based upon the pro-rata aggregate number of units and stock outstanding.

Basic and diluted net income per share of common stock are each calculated based upon net income allocable to common stockholders, divided by (i) in the case of basic net income per share of common stock, weighted average common stock and (ii) in the case of diluted net income per share of common stock, weighted average common stock adjusted for the impact of stock compensation awards outstanding (see Note 11) using the treasury stock method.

The following table sets forth the components of our basic and diluted net income per share that are not reflected on the face of our consolidated statements of income, including the allocation of income to common stockholders and common partnership units, the percentage of weighted average common stock and common partnership units outstanding, as well as basic and diluted weighted average common stock outstanding (in thousands):

Note 6. Fair Value Measurements
The Company did not have any transfers within the fair value hierarchy during the periods presented. The Company’s Level 3 inputs are model-derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. Unobservable inputs are those inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions that market participants would use to price the asset or liability based on the best available information. In evaluating the fair value information, judgment is required to interpret the market data used to develop the estimates. The estimates of fair value may not be indicative of the amounts that could be realized in a current market exchange. Accordingly, the use of different market assumptions and/or different valuation techniques could result in materially different fair value estimates.
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, tenant and other receivables, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities reasonably approximates fair value, in management’s judgment, because of their short-term nature.

2 The fair value of the Company’s derivatives were determined by management, based on valuation information prepared by an independent third party. This model incorporates credit risk and changes in credit risk to determine a credit valuation adjustment. This model is based on the applicable forward SOFR curve as a reflection of the market’s current expectation of payments discounted at market factors.

4 The carrying values of the debt are shown net of deferred financing costs of $44,891 and $— as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The Company estimates the fair value of its debt, net by discounting the future cash flows using rates and borrowing spreads currently available to the Company.
Fair Value Measurements on a Nonrecurring Basis
Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis generally consist of real estate acquired, investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, and assets the Company expects to sell that were subject to impairment charges in connection with the Company’s change of intent to sell the investments and through its recoverability analysis. See Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for more information regarding the fair value measurement of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in connection with the Merger. The Company estimates fair value based on expected sales prices in the market (Level 2) or by applying the income approach methodology using a discounted cash flow analysis (Level 3). During the periods presented, the Company did not record any impairment losses.
Note 7. Lease Agreements
The Company’s rental revenue primarily consists of rent earned from operating leases at the Company’s real estate properties. Leases generally include both a fixed base rent and variable component. The variable component of the leases primarily consists of the reimbursement of operating expenses such as real estate taxes, insurance, management fees, and common area maintenance costs. Leases are generally longer term and may contain extension and termination options at the lessee’s election.
The following table details the components of operating lease income from leases in which the Company is the lessor:

UnderMerger, under various share-based compensation plans, PSB grantsgranted non-qualified options to purchase the Company’s common stock at a price not less than fair value on the date of grant, as well as RSUs, to certain directors, officers and key employees.

The service period for stock options and RSUs begins when (i)

Prior to 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 options or RSUs vest.

We amortizeMerger, we amortized the fair value of awards starting 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 iswas amortized on a straight-line basis over the service period. For awards with performance conditions, the individual cost of each vesting iswas amortized separately over each individual service period (the “accelerated attribution” method).

In connection with the appointment of our President and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) effective April 5, 2021, the Company granted a one-time RSU sign-on award with a grant date fair value of $3.7 million and a retention RSU award with a grant date fair value of $2.9 million. These RSUs will vest ratably over five years.

Effective September 1, 2020, Maria Hawthorne retired from her role as President and CEO and continues to serve as a director of the Company. Due to Ms. Hawthorne’s continued service as a director of the Company, her unvested stock options and restricted stock units will continue to vest on their original vesting schedule in accordance with the Company’s 2012 Equity and Performance-Based Incentive Compensation Plan and related award agreements. For financial reporting purposes, the end of the service periods for these stock option and restricted stock unit grants have changed from the various respective vesting dates to September 1, 2020, the date of her retirement as President and CEO. Accordingly, all remaining stock compensation expense for Ms. Hawthorne, which totaled $1.7 million, was amortized and included in general and administrative expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020.

We accountaccounted for forfeitures of share-based payments as they occuroccurred by reversing previously amortized share-based compensation expense with respect to unvested grants that arewere forfeited in the period the employee terminates employment.

Restricted Stock Units

RSUs granted 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 vesting at the rate of 20% per year or a three-year vesting at the rate of one-third per year. Grantees receive dividendsemployees in exchange for each outstanding RSU equal to the per share dividend received by common stockholders, which are recorded in paid-in capital. We expense any dividends previously paid upon forfeiture of the related RSU. Upon vesting, the grantee receives shares of common stock equal to the number of vested RSUs, less7,920 shares of common stock withheld in exchangeupon vesting for tax withholdings made by the Company to satisfy the grantee’s statutory tax liabilities arisingperiod from the vesting. The fair value of our RSUs is determined based upon the applicable closing trading price of our common stock on the date of grant.

In March 2020, the Compensation Committee of the Board approved an annual performance-based equity incentive program (“Annual Equity Incentive Program”) under the Company’s 2012 Equity and Performance-Based Incentive Compensation Plan. Under the program, certain employees will be eligible on an annual basis to receive RSUs based on the Company’s achievement of pre-established targets for (i) growth in net asset value per share, and (ii) stockholder value creation, each as computed pursuant to the terms of the Annual Equity Incentive Program. In the event the pre-established targets are achieved, eligible employees will receive the target award, except that the Compensation Committee of the Board may adjust the actual award to 75% to 125% of the target award based on its assessment of whether certain strategic and operational goals were accomplishedJanuary 1, 2022 through July 19, 2022, resulting in the performance period. RSUs awarded under the Annual Equity Incentive Program for the 2021 performance year will be awarded on or around March 1, 2022 and will vest in 5 equal installments, with the first installment vesting on the award date. RSU holders will earn dividend equivalent rights during the vesting period.

Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies
Funding Commitments — In conjunction with the terms of the leases with certain of our tenants, the Company has commitments for tenant improvements of $1,886 on our real estate properties owned at September 30, 2022.
Concentration of Credit Risk —The Company maintains its cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at various high-quality financial institutions. The consolidated account balances at each institution typically exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance coverage, and as a result, there is a concentration of credit risk related to amounts on deposit in excess of FDIC insurance coverage. The Company believes this risk is not significant.
Environmental — As an owner of real estate, the Company is subject to various environmental laws of federal, state, and local governments. Compliance with existing environmental laws has not had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition and results of operations. The Company has obtained various environmental insurance policies to mitigate its exposure to environmental obligations. The Company cannot predict the impact of unforeseen environmental contingencies or new or changed laws or regulations on its properties, properties that have been sold, or properties that may be acquired in the future.
Litigation — The Company is party to a variety of legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. All of these matters, taken together, did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or of the Company.
Off-Balance Sheet Liabilities — The Company may be required under capital commitments or may choose to make additional capital contributions to certain of its unconsolidated entities, representing its proportionate ownership interest, should additional capital contributions be necessary to fund development or acquisition costs, repayment of debt or operational shortfalls.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates:

Our critical accounting estimates are defined as accounting estimates or assumptions made in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), which involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty or subjectivity and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. Our significant accounting policies, which utilize these critical accounting estimates, are described in Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Table of Contents
We periodically evaluate the appropriateness of our accounting policies in accordance with authoritative guidance. Prior to the consolidated financial statements includedMerger, our acquisitions of real estate or in-substance real estate were accounted for as asset acquisitions and not business combinations. The estimates used to measure the Merger accounted for as business combinations are described in Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We believeDuring the three months ended September 30, 2022, there were no other material changes to our critical accounting policies relateestimates as compared to income tax expense,the critical accounting for acquired real estate facilities, accounting for customer receivable balances including deferred rent receivable balances, impairmentestimates disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of long-lived assets,Financial Condition and accrual for uncertain and contingent liabilities, eachResults of which are more fully discussed below.

Income Tax Expense: We have elected to be treated as a REIT, as definedOperations contained in the Code. As a REIT, we do not incur U.S. federal corporate income tax on our “REIT taxable income” 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 requirements. We believe we have met these REIT requirements for all periods presented herein. Accordingly, we have recorded no U.S. federal corporate income tax expense related to our “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 allPart II, Item 7 of our taxable incomeAnnual Report on Form 10-K for at least thatthe 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 shown in our consolidated financial statements.

Accounting for Acquired Real Estate Facilities: We estimate the fair value of land, buildings, intangible assets and intangible liabilities for purposes of allocating purchase price. Such estimates, which are determined with the assistance of third-party valuation specialists where appropriate, are based upon many assumptions and judgments, including, but not limited to, (i) market rates of return and capitalization rates on real estate and intangible assets, (ii) building and material cost levels, (iii) estimated market rent levels, (iv) future revenue growth rates, (v) future cash flows from the real estate and the existing customer base and (vi) comparisons of the acquired underlying land parcels to recent land transactions. Others could come to materially different conclusions as to the estimated fair values, which could result in different depreciation and amortization expense, rental income, gains and losses on sale of real estate assets, and real estate and intangible assets.

Accounting for Customer Receivable Balances, including Deferred Rent Receivable Balances: Customer receivables consist primarily of amounts due for contractual lease payments, reimbursements of common area maintenance expenses, property taxes and other expenses recoverable from customers. Deferred rent receivables represent the amount that the cumulative straight-line rental income recorded as of a reporting date exceeds cash rents billed through that same date under the lease agreement, inclusive of rent deferrals and rent abatements granted to our customers in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company writes off uncollectible customer receivable balances, including deferred rent receivable balances, in the period such receivable balances are deemed uncollectible. Significant 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 past 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 materially different.

Executive Overview

Business Overview

The Company is a fully-integrated, self-advised and self-managed REIT that owns, operates, acquires and develops commercial properties, primarily multi-tenant industrial, industrial-flex, and low rise-suburban office space. As of September 30, 2021,2022, the Company owned and operated 28.1 million rentable square feet of commercial space471 buildings in six states consisting of 97 parks and 680 buildings.with 20,659,564 rentable square feet. The Company’s properties are primarily located in major coastal markets that have experienced long-term economic growth. The Company also held a 95.0% interest in a joint venture entity which owns Highgate at The Mile, a 395-unit multifamily apartment complex located in Tysons, Virginia, and a 98.2% interest in a joint venture formed to develop Brentford at The Mile, a planned 411-unit multifamily apartment complex also located in Tysons, Virginia.

We have a strong and conservative capital structure which allows us the flexibility to use debt and equity capital prudently to fund our growth initiatives, includingacquiring and developing properties we believe will create long-term value. From time to time we sell properties which no longer fit the Company’s strategic objectives.

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 minimizinginvesting in capital expenditures when market conditions allow,indicate favorable return on investment, 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 include incentivizing our personnel to maximize the return on investment for each lease transaction and provide a superior level of service to our customers,customers.
As a result of the Merger and the application of pushdown accounting, the periods presented are described in more detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Acquisitions of Real Estate Facilities: We seek to grow our portfolio through acquisitions of facilities generally consistent with the Company’s focus on owning concentrated business parks with easy to configure space and in markets and product types with favorable long-term return potential.

On September 1, 2021, we acquired a multi-tenant industrial business park comprising approximately 718,000 rentable square feet in Grapevine, Texas, for a total purchase price of $123.3 million, inclusive of capitalized transaction costs. The park consists of 15 buildings and was 96.1% occupied at acquisition with suites ranging from 2,000 to 20,000 square feet.

On October 28, 2020, we acquired a multi-tenant industrial business park comprising approximately 246,000 rentable square feet in Alexandria, Virginia, for a total purchase price of $46.6 million, inclusive of capitalized transaction costs. The park consists of three buildings and was 100.0% occupied at acquisition with suites ranging from 7,000 to 75,000 square feet.

On January 10, 2020, we acquired a multi-tenant industrial business park comprised of approximately 73,000 rentable square feet in La Mirada, California, for a total purchase price of $13.5 million, inclusive of capitalized transaction costs. The park consists of five buildings and was 100.0% occupied at acquisition with suites ranging from 1,200 to 3,000 square feet.

We continue to seek to acquire additional properties in our existing markets and generally in close proximity to our existing portfolio; however, there can be no assurance that we will acquire additional facilities that meet our risk-adjusted return and underwriting requirements.

Development or Redevelopment of Real Estate Facilities:In certain instances, we may seek to redevelop our existing real estate or develop new buildings on excess land parcels. During

The following table presents the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we completed theCompany’s development of an 83,000 square foot shallow-bay industrial building on an excess land parcel at our Freeport Business Park in Irving, Texas for total development costs of $8.1 million. The asset was placed into service on March 1, 2021 and accordingly was reflected under real estate facilities, at cost on our consolidated balance sheetspipeline at September 30, 2021.2022:

The Mile is an office and multifamily park we own which sits on 44.5 contiguous acres of land located Estimated project cost includes the initial purchase price allocation See Note 3. Investments in Tysons, Virginia. The park consists of 628,000 square feet of office space and a 395-unit multifamily apartment community we developed, Highgate at The Mile, which we completed in 2017 through a joint venture with the JV Partner. In 2019, we successfully rezoned The Mile allowing us to develop, at our election, up to 3,000 additional multifamily units and approximately 500,000 square feet of other commercial uses.

In August 2020, the Company entered into the Brentford Joint Venture with the JV Partner for the purpose of developing Brentford at The Mile, a planned 411-unit multifamily apartment complex. Under the Brentford Joint Venture agreement, the Company has a 98.2% controlling interest and is the managing member with the JV Partner holding the remaining 1.8% limited partnership interest. We contributed the Brentford Parcel to the Brentford Joint Venture at a value of $18.5 million, for which we received equity contribution credit in the Brentford Joint Venture. Our cost basis in the Brentford Parcel was $5.1 million as of September 30, 2021.

Construction of Brentford at The Mile commenced in August 2020 and is anticipated to be completed over a period of 24 to 36 months at an estimated development cost of $110 million to $115 million, excluding land cost. As of September 30, 2021, the development cost incurred was $41.4 million, which is reflected in land and building held for development, net on our consolidated balance sheets along with our $5.1 million cost basis in the Brentford Parcel.

While multifamily real estate was not previously a core asset class for us, we determined that multifamily real estate represents a unique opportunity and the highest and best use of the Brentford Parcel. Through joint ventures we have partnered with a local developer and operator of multifamily properties in order to leverage their development and operational expertise. The scope and timing of the future phases of development of The Mile are subject to a variety of uncertainties, including site plan approvals and building permits.

Sale of Real Estate Facilities: We continually evaluate opportunities with respect to our portfolio and may from time to time sell individual real estate facilities and land parcels or groups of facilities and land parcels based on market conditions, fit with our existing portfolio, evaluation of long-term potential returns of markets or product types, or other reasons.

On September 17, 2021, the Company sold a 22,000 square foot industrial-flex building located The size of such sales may be significant to us. Refer to “Dispositions” in Irving, Texas, for net sale proceeds of $3.4 million, which resultedNote 3 — Investments in a gainReal Estate to our Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on sale of $2.9 million.

On July 16, 2021, the Company sold a 244,000 square foot office business park located in Herndon, Virginia, for net sale proceeds of $40.5 million, which resulted in a gain on sale of $27.0 million.

On June 17, 2021, the Company sold a 198,000 square foot office-oriented flex business park located in Chantilly, Virginia, for net sale proceeds of $32.6 million, which resulted in a gain on sale of $19.2 million.

On September 16, 2020, the Company sold two industrial buildings totaling 40,000 square feet located in Redmond, Washington, which were subject to an eminent domain process for net sale proceeds of $11.4 million and resulted in a gain of $7.7 million.

On January 7, 2020, the Company completed the sale of a single-tenant building totaling 113,000 square feet in Rockville, Maryland, for net sale proceeds of $29.3 million, which resulted in a gain on sale of $19.6 million.

Certain

Factors that May ImpactAffect Our Future Results

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic: Starting in March 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in cessation, severe curtailment, or impairment of business activities in most sectors of the economy in all markets we operate in, due to governmental “stay at home” orders, risk mitigation procedures,Operations and closure of businesses not considered to be “essential.” This resulted in a rapid and dramatic increase in unemployment in the U.S. in the second and third quarter of 2020, with only a partial recovery by September 30, 2021. Since it remains unknown at this time how long the COVID-19 pandemic will continue, particularly given the impact of variants such as the Delta variant, we cannot estimate how long these negative economic impacts will persist.

During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company granted $0.1 million rent deferral and $0.1 million of rent abatement compared to the $1.7 million of rent deferral and $0.3 million of rent abatement granted for the three months ended September 30, 2020. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company granted $0.4 million of rent deferral and $0.3 million of rent abatement which was significantly lower than the $5.5 million of rent deferrals and $1.2 million of rent abatements granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has entered into rent relief agreements consisting of $6.1 million of rent deferrals and $1.6 million of rent abatements. As of September 30, 2021, the 340 current customers that received rent relief account for 9.6% of rental income. Also as of September 30, 2021, the Company had collected $4.5 million of rent deferral repayment, representing 99.9% of the amounts scheduled to be repaid through September 2021.

As of October 27, 2021, the Company had open rent relief requests from less than 1% of its customers. It is possible that additional rent relief requests will arise in future months as a result of continued effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and related responses from state and local governments, however the timing and magnitude of such future requests cannot

All rent relief requests to date have been, and all future rent relief requests are expected to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. To the extent we grant additional requests for rent abatement, or to the extent that our customers default on their lease obligations, it will have a negative effect on our future rental income and net income.

Our ability to re-lease space as leases expire in a way that minimizes vacancy periods and maximizes market rental rates will depend upon market conditions in the specific submarkets in which each of our properties are located. Due to the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on the Company’s future ability to grow or maintain existing occupancy levels, possible decreases in rental rates on new and renewal transactions, and the potential negative effect of additional rent deferrals, rent abatements, and customer defaults, we believe in some instances the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to have adverse effects on rental income for 2021 and possibly beyond.

Impact of Inflation:Inflation has significantly increased recently and a continued increase in inflation could adversely impact our future results.results, including as a result of adverse impacts to our tenants and to the economy generally. The Company continues to seek ways to mitigate its potential impact. A substantial portion of the Company’s leases require customers to pay operating expenses, including real estate taxes, utilities, and insurance, as well as increases in common area expenses, which should partially reduce the Company’s exposure to inflation.

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. Changes in economic conditions in these regions in the future could impact our future results.

Industry and Customer Concentrations: We seek to minimize the risk of industry or customer concentrations. AsNo significant tenant concentrations existed as of September 30, 2021, excluding assets held for sale, leases from our top 10 customers comprised 10.0%2022.

Results of our annualized rental income, with only four customers – the U.S. Government (2.6%), Amazon Inc. (1.6%), KZ Kitchen Cabinet & Stone (1.3%), and Luminex Corporation (1.0%) – representing more than 1%. In terms of industry concentration, 22.0% of our annualized rental income comes from business services, 14.7% from logistics, and 10.0% from technology. No other industry group represents more than 10% of our annualized rental income.

Customer credit risk: Historically we have experienced a low level of write-offs of uncollectible rents, with less than 0.4% of rental income written off in any single year from 2011-2019. The negative impactOperations

Comparison of the COVID-19 pandemic and its effect on our customers’ ability to pay rent resulted in accounts receivable write-offs of 0.4% of rental income in 2020, which is at the high end of the historical range noted above. During the three and nine months endedperiod from July 20, 2022 through September 30, 2021, the Company wrote off $0.0 million of accounts receivable, net of recoveries, compared to $0.3 million2022 (Successor) and $1.5 million written off during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.

The Company writes off deferred rent receivable balances as a reduction to rental income in the period such balances are no longer deemed probable of being collected. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company wrote off $0.1 million and $0.3 million of deferred rent receivable, respectively, which is significantly lower than the $0.3 million and $2.7 million written off during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively.

As of October 27, 2021, we had 25,000 square feet of leased space occupied by one customer that is protected by Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, which has an aggregate remaining lease value of $0.1 million. From timefrom July 1, 2022 through July 19, 2022 (Predecessor) compared to time, customers contact us, requesting early termination of their lease, reductions in space leased, or rent deferment or abatement, which we are not obligated to grant but will consider and grant under certain circumstances.

Net Operating Income

We utilize net operating income (“NOI”), a measure that is not defined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), to evaluate the operating performance of our real estate. We define NOI as rental income less Adjusted Cost of Operations. Adjusted Cost of Operations, a non-GAAP measure, represents cost of operations, excluding stock compensation, which can vary significantly period to period based upon the performance of the Company.

We believe NOI assists investors in analyzing the performance of our real estate by excluding (i) corporate overhead (i.e., general and administrative expense) because it does not relate to the direct operating performance of our real estate, (ii) depreciation and amortization expense because it does not accurately reflect changes in the fair value of our real estate, and (iii) stock compensation expense because this expense item can vary significantly from period to period and thus impact comparability across periods. The Company’s calculation of NOI 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. NOI should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs. NOI should not be used as a substitute for cash flow from operating activities in accordance with GAAP.

We also report NOI on a basis which excludes non-cash rents that have been deferred or abated during the period, certain non-cash revenue items, including amortization of deferred rent receivable, in-place lease intangible, tenant improvement reimbursements, and lease incentives, and also excludes stock-compensation expense for employees whose compensation expense is recorded in cost of operations (“Cash NOI”). We utilize Cash NOI to evaluate the cash flow performance of our properties and believe investors and analysts utilize this metric for the same purpose. Cash NOI should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs. Cash NOI should not be used as a substitute for cash flow from operating activities in accordance with GAAP.

See “Analysis of net income” below for reconciliations of each of these measures to their closest analogous GAAP measure from our consolidated statements of income.

Depreciation and amortization increased by $81,412 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, including the successor and predecessor periods, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to the step-up in basis of the real estate assets acquired and intangibles assumed in connection with the Merger (see Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to our Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q).
General and administrative expenses increased by $7,210 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, including the successor and predecessor periods, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to a one-time cash payment of $6,734 to the former CEO in the first quarter of 2022, which consisted of a $6,643 cash payment for RSUs (see Note 10 — Incentive Compensation to our Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q), and a $91 cash payment for COBRA coverage reimbursement in accordance with his separation agreement.
Merger costs of $138,218 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 are comprised primarily of legal and other professional fees incurred in connection with the Merger discussed herein. These increases in expenses were partially offset by a decrease in property expenses of $5,540 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, including the successor and predecessor periods, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to the distribution of the Company’s interest in 58 properties included in the Non-Core Portfolio (see Note 1 — Description of Business to our Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q).
Other Income (Expense): Total other income (expense) for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, including the successor and predecessor periods, was $168,528 as compared to total other income (expense) of $49,777 in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to the following:
Gain on sale of real estate, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, including the successor and predecessor periods, was $157,022, which was related to the sale of 208 buildings. Gain on sale of real estate, net for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Analysis of Same Park Rental Income

Rental income for our Same Park portfolio increased 6.8% and 5.8% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the same periods in 2020. The three and nine month increases were due primarily to a reduction in rent abatements granted to certain customers as well as lower write-offs of accounts receivable and deferred rent receivable in 2021 compared to 2020, an increase in weighted average occupancy, and higher rental rates charged to our customers, as revenue per occupied square foot increased 4.4% and 4.2%, in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020.

(1)Non-cash rental income includes amortization of deferred rent receivable (net of write-offs), in-place lease intangible, tenant improvement reimbursements, and lease incentives.

We expect future revenue growth will come primarily from contractual rental increases as well as from potential increases in market rentswas $49,117, which would allow us to increase rent levels when leases are either renewed with existing customers or re-leased to new customers.

Analysis of Same Park Adjusted Cost of Operations

Adjusted Cost of Operations for our Same Park portfolio increased 3.0% and 4.3% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The three month increase was due primarily to increases in utilities and property taxes, while the nine month increase was due primarily to increases in insurance, property taxes, repairs and maintenance, and snow removal.

Property taxes increased 2.2% and 2.1% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. These increases were due to higher assessed values. We expect potential property tax growth in the future due to higher assessed values.

Utilities are dependent upon energy prices and usage levels. Changes in usage levels are driven primarily by weather and temperature. Utilities increased 10.2% and 3.0% during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The three and nine month increases were driven by reduced consumption in 2020 resulting from the “shelter in place order” due to the COVID-19 pandemic during the second and third quarter of 2020. It is difficult to estimate future utility costs, because weather, temperature and energy prices are volatile and not readily predictable. However, we expect utility costs in the future to return to pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels over time due to expected increases in traffic and use at our parks as our customers resume operations.

Repairs and maintenance expense increased 1.5% and 3.7% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The three and nine month increases were due a reduction in general repairs and property services as a result of the “shelter in place order” placed into effect during the second and third quarter of 2020. Repairs and maintenance costs are dependent upon many 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 always predictable. We expect repairs and maintenance costs for the remainder of 2021 to be comparable to our results for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and more consistent with pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels as a result of expected increases in traffic and use at our parks as customers resume operations.

Compensation increased 0.7% and 2.2% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. Compensation expense is comprised of on-site and supervisory personnel costs incurred in the operation of our properties. We expect compensation expense for the remainder of 2021 to be comparable to our results for the three months ended September 30, 2021.

Snow removal costs increased 1,344.3% during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the same period in the prior year. Snow removal costs are weather dependent and therefore not predictable.

Property insurance expense increased 3.8% and 22.1% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The three and nine month increases were primarily due to an increase in our property insurance premium for the policy period June 2020 to May 2021 due to unfavorable market

Table of Contents

conditions pervasive throughout commercial real estate sectors combined with insurance deductibles recorded during 2021 related to damage from the winter storm in Texas. We expect to experience increases in property insurance expense in the future as unfavorable market conditions pervasive throughout commercial real estate sectors persist.

Other expenses decreased 1.2% and 1.8% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. Other expenses are comprised of general property expenses incurred in the operation of our properties. We expect other expenses for the remainder of 2021 to be similar to our results for the three months September 30, 2021.

Our past revenue growth has come from contractual annual rent increases as well as re-leasing of space at rates above outgoing rental rates. We believe the percentage difference between outgoing cash rent inclusive of estimated expense recoveries and incoming cash rent inclusive of estimated expense recoveries for leases executed (“Cash Rental Rate Change”) is useful in understanding trends in current market rates relativeReal Estate to our existing lease rates. The following tables summarize the Cash Rental Rate Change and other key statistical information with respect to the Company’s leasing production for its Same Park portfolio for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 (square feetConsolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 in thousands):

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, weighted average occupancy was 94.8% and 94.0%, respectively, an increase from weighted average occupancy of 92.6% for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. Renewals of leases with existing customers represented 62.6% of our leasing activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Average lease term of the leases executed during the three months ended September 30, 2021 was 3.8 years with associated average transaction costs (tenant improvements and leasing commissions) of $4.44 per square foot. For comparative purposes, average lease term and transaction costs on leases executed during the three months ended September 30, 2020 were 3.3 years and $2.16 per square foot, respectively. The uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on the Company’s future ability to increase or maintain existing occupancy levels, possible decreases in rental rates on new and renewal transactions, and potential additional rent deferrals, rent abatements, and customer defaults, may affect our ability to grow Same Park rental income in the near future.

We believe that our management and operating infrastructure typically allows us to generate higher NOI from newly acquired real estate facilities than was achieved by previous owners. However, it can take 24 or more months for us to fully achieve higher NOI, and the ultimate levels of NOI achieved can be affected by changes in general economic conditions. Due to the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on the Company’s ability to generate higher NOI from these newly acquired real estate facilities in the future, there can be no assurance that we will achieve our expectations with respect to newly acquired real estate facilities.

Multifamily: As of September 30, 2021, we held a 95.0% controlling interest in a joint venture that owns Highgate at The Mile, a 395-unit apartment complex in Tysons, Virginia.

(2)Average rent per unit is defined as the total potential monthly rental revenue (actual rent for occupied apartment units plus market rent for vacant apartment units) divided by the total number of rentable apartment units.

The nine month decrease in NOI was primarily due to a decline in rental rates as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic combined with an increase in cost of operations. The increase in cost of operations was attributed to an insurance deductible expense resulting from storm related flood damage. Due to the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on the Company’s future ability to maintain existing occupancy levels and rental rates, we may continue to experience NOI levels below those which were achieved prior to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in the near future.

The nine month decrease was primarilycurrent year period due to accelerationchanges in fair value on our interest rate derivatives, and (iii) amortization of depreciation expense relatedfinancing costs of $4,992 during the current year period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

This section should be read in conjunction with our consolidated statementsConsolidated Statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2021Cash Flows; and 2020Note 4 — Debt, Note 5 — Derivative Financial Instruments, and the notesNote 11 — Commitments and Contingencies to our consolidated financial statements, which set forthConsolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional details on 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.

Cash Requirements:

Capital Raising Strategy:Contractual Commitments: As a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 90%Our significant short-term liquidity requirements over the next 12 months following September 30, 2022 includes:

Interest expense: payment of our “REIT taxable income” to our stockholders each year, which relative to a taxable C corporation, limits the amount of cash flow from operations that we can retain for investment purposes. 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 determined by Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s. Our corporate credit rating by Standard and Poor’s is A-, while our preferred stock is rated BBB by Standard and Poor’s and Baa2 by Moody’s. We believe our credit profile and ratings will enable us to efficiently access both the public and private capital markets to raise capital, as necessary.

In order to maintain efficient access to the 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. Ratio of FFO to fixed charges and preferred distributions is calculated by dividing FFO excluding fixed charges and preferred distributions by fixed charges and preferred distributions paid. Fixed charges include interest expense capitalized intereston outstanding indebtedness, including approximately $232,603 due within the next 12 months;

Development costs: funding development costs for three ongoing projects, including $29,564 scheduled to be funded within the next 12 months;
Funding capital expenditures for tenant improvements and leasing commissions of $1,886;
Ground lease obligations: Our contractual payment requirements under various operating leases as of September 30, 2022 are approximately $50 for 2022 and $1,372 thereafter;
Preferred stock dividends: We paid $28,740 to preferred equity distributions paid. Forstockholders during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the ratio2022, including successor and predecessor periods. Dividends on preferred equity are paid when and if declared by our Board of FFODirectors (the "Board") and accumulate if not paid (see Note 9 — Stockholders' Equity to combined fixed chargesour Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q), and preferred distributions paid was 5.9
other normal recurring operating and capital expenses.
We intend to 1.0.

In August 2021, we amendedsatisfy our short-term liquidity requirements through our existing cash and restated the credit agreement governingcash equivalents, which totaled $112,180 as of September 30, 2022, and cash flow from operating activities. We may also satisfy our revolving Credit Facilityliquidity needs by:

proceeds from dispositions of properties and/or land parcels, and
our ability obtain new financings and exercise our option to increase the aggregate principal amount of the Credit Facility from $250.0 million to $400.0 million and extend the expiration datematurity dates on existing financings.
Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to August 2025. The Credit Facility can also be expandedpay for, non-recurring capital expenditures for our properties, development or redevelopment activities, principal and interest payments on our indebtedness, and payment of distributions and dividends to $700.0 million.our equity investors. We can use the Credit Facility as necessary as temporary financing until we are able to raise longer-term capital. Historically, we have fundedmay satisfy our long-term capital requirements with retained operatingliquidity needs through our cash flow from operations, long-term secured and proceeds fromunsecured borrowings, the issuance of commondebt and preferred securities. We will select among these sources of capital based upon availability, relative cost, the impact of constraintsequity securities, property and/or land parcel dispositions, cash contributions from our Parent, our option to draw on available shared capacity on our operations (such as covenants),existing loans or through repayment of the Parent Partner Loans.
We capitalize costs incurred in renovating, improving, and the desire for leverage.

Short-term Liquidity and Capital Resource Analysis: We believe that our net cash provided byleasing 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 stockholders for the foreseeable future.

Asproperties as part of September 30, 2021, we had $46.6 millionInvestments in unrestricted cash. In the last five years, we have retained between $40 to $60 million in operating cash flow per year. Retained operating cash flow represents cash flow provided by operating activities, less stockholder and unit holder distributions and capital expenditures, excluding development costs.

Required Debt Repayment: As of September 30, 2021, we have no debt outstanding on our Credit Facility. We are in compliance with all of the covenants and other requirements of our Credit Facility.

Table of Contents

In the last five years, our annual Same Park recurring capital expenditures have ranged between 11.5% and 14.3% as a percentage of NOI, and we expected future recurring capital expenditures to be within this range. While what we disclose herein with respect to capital expenditures represents our best estimates at this time, there can be no assurance that these amounts will not change substantially in the future for various reasons, including the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on capital projects and leasing volume.

Redemption of Preferred Stock: On October 4, 2021, we announced that weShares of preferred stock (other than our Series A Preferred Stock) are calling for redemption all outstanding depositaryredeemable by the Company five years after issuance or in order to preserve its status as a REIT, but shares representing interests in our 5.20% Cumulativeof preferred stock are never redeemable at the option of the holder.

Acquisitionstheir respective governing documents. The size of real estate facilities: On September 1, 2021, we acquired a multi-tenant industrial business park comprising approximately 718,000 rentable square feet in Grapevine, Texas, for a total purchasesuch repurchases may be material and may impact the liquidity and trading price of $123.3 million, inclusive of capitalized transaction costs. On October 28, 2020, we acquired a multi-tenant industrial business park comprising approximately 246,000 rentable square feet in Alexandria, Virginia, for a total purchase price of $46.6 million, inclusive of capitalized transaction costs. On January 10, 2020, we acquired a multi-tenant industrial business park comprising approximately 73,000 rentable square feet in La Mirada, California, for a total purchase price of $13.5 million, inclusive of capitalized transaction costs. We continue to seek to acquire additional real estate facilities; however, there is significant competition to acquire existing facilities in our markets and there can be no assurance as to the volume of future acquisition activity.

Sale of real estate: On September 17, 2021, we sold a 22,000 square foot industrial-flex building located in Irving, Texas, for net sale proceeds of $3.4 million, which resulted in a gain on sale of $2.9 million. On July 16, 2021, we sold a 244,000 square foot office business park located in Herndon, Virginia, for net sale proceeds of $40.5 million, which resulted in a gain on sale of $27.0 million. On June 17, 2021, we sold a 198,000 square foot office-oriented flex business park located in Chantilly, Virginia, for net sale proceeds of $32.6 million, which resulted in a gain on sale of $19.2 million. On September 16, 2020, we sold two industrial buildings totaling 40,000 square feet located in Redmond, Washington, which were subject to an eminent domain process for net sale proceeds of $11.4 million, which resulted in a gain of $7.7 million. On January 7, 2020, we sold an 113,000 square foot office building located at Metro Park North in Rockville, Maryland, for net sale proceeds of $29.3 million, which resulted in a gain on sale of $19.6 million.

Subsequent to September 30, 2021, the Company sold a 371,000 square foot industrial-flex business park located in San Diego, California, for a gross sales price of $315.4 million, and net sale proceeds, after payment of transaction costs, were $311.1 million.

Development of real estate facilities: As noted above, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we completed the development of an 83,000 square foot shallow-bay industrial building on an excess land parcel at our Freeport Business Park in Irving, Texas for total development costs of $8.1 million. The total developed asset value inclusive of land costs, of $9.1 million was placed into service on March 1, 2021 and accordingly was reflected under real estate facilities, at cost on our consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2021.

In August 2020, we entered into the Brentford Joint Venture with the JV Partner for the purpose of developing Brentford at The Mile, a planned 411-unit multifamily apartment complex. We contributed the Brentford Parcel to the Brentford Joint Venture at a value of $18.5 million, for which we received equity contribution credit in the Brentford Joint Venture. Our cost basis in the Brentford Parcel was $5.1 million as of September 30, 2021.


such preferred stock.

Construction of Brentford at The Mile commenced in August 2020 and is anticipated to be completed over a period of 24 to 36 months at an estimated development cost of $110 million to $115 million, excluding land cost. As of September 30, 2021, the development cost incurred was $41.4 million, which is reflected in land and building held for development, net on our consolidated balance sheets along with our $5.1 million cost basis in the Brentford Parcel. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded non-capitalizable demolition costs of $0.3 million in interest and other expense on our consolidated statements of income.

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, 2021 or the year ended December 31, 2020. As of September 30, 2021, management has the authorization to repurchase an additional 1,614,721 shares.

Requirement to Pay Distributions: Our election to be taxed as a REIT, as defined by the Code, applies to all periods presented herein. As a REIT, we do not incur U.S. federal corporate income tax on our “REIT taxable income” that is distributed each year (for this purpose, certain distributions paid in a subsequent year may be considered), and we continue to meet certain organizational and operational requirements. We believe we have met these requirements in all periods presented herein, and we expect we will continue to qualify as a REIT in future periods.

We paid REIT qualifying distributions of $122.8 million$237,819 ($36.1 million28,740 to preferred stockholders and $86.7 million$209,079 to common stockholders) during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

2022, including successor and predecessor periods.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We estimate the annual distribution requirements with respectmay be exposed to our preferred shares outstandinginterest rate changes primarily as a result of long-term debt used to be $38.3 million per year, excluding the 5.20% Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series W that will be redeemed during the fourth quartermaintain liquidity and fund capital expenditures and expansion of 2021 (see Note 9).

If we are unable to find suitable Section 1031 exchange opportunities for the remainder of the net sale proceeds from the Lusk Sale by year end, we expect to declare and pay, by year end, a one-time special dividend sourced by a portion of the disposition proceeds. The actual amount of any special dividend will be determined by the Company based on its estimate of 2021 REIT taxable income. 

Our consistent, long-term dividend policy has been to set dividend distribution amounts based on our taxable income. Future quarterly distributions with respect to common stock will continue to be determined based upon our REIT distribution requirements and, along with distributions to preferred stockholders, we expect will be funded with cash provided by operating activities.

Funds from Operations, Core Funds from Operations, and Funds Available for Distributions

Funds from Operations (“FFO”) is a non-GAAP measure defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts and is considered a helpful measure of REIT performance by REITs and many REIT analysts. FFO represents GAAP net income before real estate depreciationinvestment portfolio and amortization expense, gains or losses on sales of operating properties and land and impairment charges on real estate assets.

We also present Core FFO and Funds Available for Distribution (“FAD”) whichoperations. Our interest rate risk management objectives are both also non-GAAP measures. The Company defines Core FFO as FFO excludingto limit the impact of (i) income allocatedinterest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to preferred stockholders to the extent redemption value exceeds the related carrying value and (ii) other nonrecurring incomelower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve our objectives, we borrow primarily at fixed rates or expense items as appropriate. FAD represents Core FFO adjusted to (i) deduct recurring capital improvements and capitalized tenant improvements and lease commissions and (ii) remove certain non-cash income or expense items such as amortization of deferred rent receivable and stock compensation expense.

FFO for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $1.72 per share and $5.15 per share, respectively, representing increases of 11.2% and 6.2% from the same periods in 2020. The increases in FFO per share were the result of higher NOI as described above partially offset by higher general and administrative expense.

Table of Contents

Core FFO was $1.72 per share and $5.16 per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and was $1.61 per share and $4.91 per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, Core FFO was equal to FFO, as the Company did not incur any preferred stock redemption charges or any nonrecurring income or expense items in either period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, Core FFO excludes the impact of a one-time cost associatedvariable rates with the Company’s reincorporation as a Maryland corporation of $0.5 million incurred during the second quarter of 2021. For the threelowest margins available.

With regard to variable rate financing, we assess interest rate cash flow risk by continually identifying and nine months ended September 30, 2020, Core FFO excludes themonitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact of (i) accelerated amortization of stock compensation expense of $1.7 million relatedexpected future cash flows and by evaluating hedging opportunities. We maintain risk management control systems to the retirement ofmonitor interest rate cash flow risk attributable to both our former Presidentoutstanding and CEO and (ii) non-capitalizable demolition costs of $0.3 million.

The following table reconciles net income allocable to common stockholders to FFO, Core FFO and FADforecasted debt obligations as well as net income per shareour potential offsetting hedge positions. The risk management control systems involve the use of analytical techniques, including cash flow sensitivity analysis, to FFO per share and Core FFO per share (amounts in thousands, except per share data):

Table of Contents

We believe FFO, Core FFO, and FAD assist investors in analyzing and comparing the operating and financial performance of a company’s real estate from period to period. FFO, Core FFO, and FAD are not substitutes for GAAP net income. In addition, other REITs may compute FFO, Core FFO, and FAD differently, which could inhibit comparability.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements: The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Contractual Obligations: We paid $36.1 million in distributions to our preferred stockholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and expect to continue to pay quarterly distributions of $9.6 million, which excludes the 5.20% Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series W scheduled to be redeemed during the fourth quarter of 2021 (Note 9) to our preferred stockholders for the foreseeable future or until such time as there is a change in the amount or composition of our series of preferred equity outstanding.

Dividends on preferred equity are paid when and if declared by the Company’s Board and accumulate if not paid. Shares of preferred equity are redeemable by the Company in order to preserve its status as a REIT and are also redeemable five years after issuance, but never redeemable at the option of the holder.

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 as of as of September 30, 2021.

Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarilyon our future cash flows.

We may use additional derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to changes in interest rates on loans secured by our properties or unsecured debt obligations. To the extent we do we are exposed to market and credit risk. Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of the financial instrument that result a change in interest rates. The market risk associated with interest-rate contracts is managed by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken. Credit Facility,risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. When the fair value derivative contract is positive, the counterparty owes us, which creates credit risk to us. We will minimize the credit risk in derivative instruments by entering into transactions with high-quality counterparties.
As of September 30, 2022, we had $3,795,930 of outstanding floating rate debt, of which $3,592,215 is subject to interest rate cap and swap agreements, which effectively limits the interest rate risk. Our variable-rate borrowings bear interest at one month SOFR plus an applicable spread. If market rates of interest on our variable rate debt increased by 1%, the increase in annual interest rates. See Notes 2expense on our variable rate debt would decrease future earnings and 6 tocash flows by $2,037. This estimate considers the consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Reportimpact of our interest rate swap agreements and is calculated utilizing the interest rates on Form 10-Q for additional information regarding the terms, valuationsour debt at September 30, 2022.

ITEMliquidity, see the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risks described“Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020,2021 (the “Annual Report”). In light of the Merger, we are supplementing the risk factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors,the Annual Report with the following risk factors, which should be read in conjunction with the risk factors contained in our Annual Report.

Risks Related to Our Indebtedness
Our significant amount of debt may subject us to increased risk of loss and could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
We currently have a significant amount of outstanding indebtedness, including the Mortgage Loans incurred in connection with the Merger, and, subject to market conditions and availability, we may incur a significant amount of additional debt. The type and percentage of leverage we employ will vary depending on our available capital, our ability to obtain and access financing arrangements with lenders or other debt financing sources, the type of assets we are funding, whether the financing is recourse or non-recourse, debt restrictions contained in those financing arrangements and the lenders’ and rating agencies’ estimate of the stability of our investment portfolio’s cash flow. We may significantly increase the amount of leverage we utilize at any time. In addition, we may leverage individual assets at substantially higher levels. Incurring substantial debt could subject us to many risks that, if realized, would materially and adversely affect us, including the risk that:
our cash flow from operations may be insufficient to make required payments of principal of and interest on our debt or we may fail to comply with covenants contained in our debt agreements, which is likely to result in (i) acceleration of such debt (and any other debt containing a cross-default or cross-acceleration provision) in accordance with the terms and conditions of our financing arrangements, which we then may be unable to repay from internal funds or to refinance on favorable terms, or at all, (ii) our inability to borrow undrawn amounts under our financing arrangements, even if we are current in payments on borrowings under those arrangements, which would result in a decrease in our liquidity, and/or (iii) the loss of some or all of our collateral assets to foreclosure or sale;
our debt may increase our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions with no assurance that investment yields will increase in an amount sufficient to offset the higher financing costs;
34


Table of Contents
we may be required to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our debt, thereby reducing funds available for operations, future business opportunities, stockholder distributions or other purposes; and
we may not be able to refinance any debt that matures prior to the maturity (or realization) of an underlying investment it was used to finance on favorable terms or at all.
There can be no assurance that our leverage strategy will be successful, and such strategy may subject us to increased risk of loss, harm our liquidity and could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Our secured debt agreements governing the Mortgage Loans impose, and additional lending facilities may impose, restrictive covenants, which may restrict our flexibility to determine our operating policies and investment strategy.
The documents that govern our Mortgage Loans contain, and additional lending may contain, customary affirmative and negative covenants, including financial covenants applicable to us that may restrict our flexibility to determine our operating policies and investment strategy. In particular, these agreements may require us to maintain specified minimum levels of capacity under our credit facilities and cash. As a result, we may not be able to leverage our assets as fully as we would otherwise choose, which could reduce our return on assets. If we are unable to meet these collateral obligations, our financial condition and prospects could deteriorate significantly. If we fail to meet or satisfy any of these covenants beyond any applicable notice and/or cure periods pursuant to the terms of our financing arrangements, we may be in default under these agreements, and our lenders could elect to declare outstanding amounts due and payable, terminate their commitments, require the posting of additional collateral and enforce their interests against existing collateral. We may also be subject to cross-default and acceleration rights in our other filingsdebt arrangements. Further, this could also make it difficult for us to satisfy the distribution requirements necessary to maintain our qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Risks Related to Our Organization and Structure
We are controlled by Blackstone and its interests may conflict with ours or yours in the future.

Following the Merger, affiliates of Blackstone beneficially own all outstanding shares of our common stock. Accordingly, Blackstone has significant influence with respect to our management, business plans and policies, including the election and removal of our officers and directors. Blackstone and its affiliates engage in a broad spectrum of activities, including investments in real estate generally. In the ordinary course of their business activities, Blackstone and its affiliates may engage in activities where their interests conflict with our interests or those of our stockholders. Blackstone also may pursue acquisition opportunities that may be complementary to our business, and, as a result, those acquisition opportunities may not be available to us. In addition, Blackstone may have an interest in pursuing acquisitions, divestitures and other transactions that, in its judgment, could enhance its investment, even though such transactions might involve risks to you.

We are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) and, as a result, qualify for, and intend to rely on, exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements. You will not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to such requirements.

Following the Merger, affiliates of Blackstone control a majority of the combined voting power of all classes of our stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors. As a result, we are a “controlled company” within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of the NYSE. Under these rules, a company of which more than 50% of the voting power in the election of directors is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements, including the requirements that we have a board that is comprised of a majority of “independent directors,” as defined under the rules of the NYSE.
Following the Merger, we’ve elected to utilize all of these exemptions. In addition, because our common stock is no longer listed on the NYSE following the Merger and only shares of our preferred stock (other than our Series A Preferred Stock) remain listed, we are subject to only certain of the listing rules that would be applicable to a company with common stock listed on the NYSE. Accordingly, you will not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of the NYSE.

Risks Related to Conflicts of Interest
Various potential and actual conflicts of interest will arise, and these conflicts may not be identified or resolved in a manner favorable to us.
Blackstone has conflicts of interest, or conflicting loyalties, as a result of the numerous activities and relationships of Blackstone and its affiliates, partners, members, shareholders, officers, directors and employees, some of which are described herein. However, not all potential, apparent and actual conflicts of interest are included herein, and additional conflicts of interest could arise as a result of new activities, transactions or relationships commenced in the future. If any matter arises that we and our affiliates determine in our good faith judgment constitutes an actual and material conflict of interest, we and our affiliates will take such actions as we determine appropriate to mitigate the conflict. Transactions between us and Blackstone or its affiliates may require approval by the audit committee of our board of directors. There can be no assurance that our board of directors or Blackstone will identify or resolve all conflicts of interest in a manner that is favorable to us.
We depend on Link and its personnel for our success. We may not find a suitable replacement for Link if our Master Services Agreement is terminated, or if key personnel cease to be employed by Link or Blackstone otherwise become unavailable to us.
Pursuant to a Master Services Agreement (the “Services Agreement”), we have engaged Link, a portfolio company owned by Blackstone-advised investment vehicles, to provide, as applicable, corporate support services (including, without limitation, accounting, legal, tax, treasury, valuation services, information technology and data management), loan management, management services, operational services, property management and transaction support services (the “Services”). Pursuant to the Services Agreement, the Company pays Link for such services on a break-even or cost-reimbursement basis as determined in accordance with the SEC. These factorsterms of the Services Agreement. Pursuant to the Services Agreement, Link Logistics Real Estate Management LLC, a subsidiary of Link, has been engaged by certain of our subsidiaries to perform management services with respect to our properties.
Accordingly, our success depends to a significant extent upon the efforts, experience, diligence, skill, and network of business contacts of the officers and key personnel of Link and its affiliates, as well as the persons and firms Link retains to provide services on our behalf. We can offer no assurance that Link will continue to provide such Services or that we will continue to have access to Link’s officers and key personnel. The current term of the Services Agreement extends to December 31, 2022 and may materiallybe renewed for additional one-year terms thereafter; provided, however, that the Services Agreement may be terminated at any time upon prior written notice by either Link or the Company. If the Services Agreement is terminated and no suitable replacement is found to manage us, we may not be able to execute our business plan. Furthermore, we may incur certain costs in connection with a termination of the Services Agreement.
The personnel of Link are not required to dedicate a specific portion of their time to the management of our business.
Neither Link nor any other Blackstone affiliate is obligated to dedicate any specific personnel exclusively to us, nor are they or their personnel obligated to dedicate any specific portion of their time to the management of our business. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Services Agreement, Link retains, for and on our behalf and at our expense, the services of certain other persons and firms as Link deems necessary or advisable in connection with managing our operations. Certain of these providers currently include affiliates of Blackstone and its portfolio companies and may include additional affiliates in the future. As a result, we cannot provide any assurances regarding the amount of time Link or its affiliates will dedicate to the management of our business and Link may have conflicts in allocating its time, resources and services among our business and any other investment vehicles and accounts Link (or its personnel) may manage and expenses allocable to us may increase where third parties are retained to provide services to us. Each of our officers is also an employee of Link or another Blackstone affiliate, who has now or may be expected to have significant responsibilities for other investment vehicles currently managed by Blackstone and its affiliates. Consequently, we may not receive the level of support and assistance that we otherwise might receive if we were internally managed. Link and its affiliates are not restricted from entering into other advisory relationships or from engaging in other business activities.
36


Table of Contents
We and the Blackstone Vehicles have and in the future will likely compete with or enter into transactions with existing and future private and public investment vehicles established and/or managed by Blackstone or its affiliates, which may present various conflicts of interest that restrict our ability to pursue certain investment opportunities or take other actions that are beneficial to our business and/or result in decisions that are not in the best interests of our stockholders.
We are subject to conflicts of interest arising out of our relationship with Blackstone, including Link and its affiliates. Certain Blackstone employees serve on our board of directors. In addition, our chief executive officer, chief financial officer and president are also employees of Link, a Blackstone affiliate. If any matter arises that Blackstone determines in its good faith judgment constitutes an actual and material conflict of interest, Blackstone and relevant affiliates will take the actions they determine appropriate to mitigate the conflict. There is no guarantee that the policies and procedures adopted by us, or the policies and procedures adopted by Link, Blackstone and their affiliates, will enable us to identify, adequately address or mitigate these conflicts of interest in a way that is favorable to us. Some examples of conflicts of interest that may arise by virtue of our relationship with Link and Blackstone include:
Broad and Wide-Ranging Activities. Link, Blackstone and their affiliates engage in a broad spectrum of activities, including a broad range of activities relating to investments in the real estate industry, and have invested or committed billions of dollars in capital through various investment funds, managed accounts and other vehicles affiliated with Blackstone. In the ordinary course of their business activities, Link, Blackstone and their affiliates may engage in activities where the interests of certain divisions of Blackstone and its affiliates, including Link, or the interests of their clients may conflict with the interests of our stockholders. Certain of these divisions and entities affiliated with Link have or may have an investment strategy similar to our investment strategy and therefore will likely compete with us.
Blackstone’s Policies and Procedures. Specified policies and procedures implemented by Blackstone and its affiliates, including Link, to mitigate potential conflicts of interest and address certain regulatory requirements and contractual restrictions may reduce the advantages across Blackstone’s and its affiliates’ various businesses that Blackstone expects to draw on for purposes of pursuing attractive investment opportunities. Because Blackstone has many different businesses, it is subject to a number of actual and potential conflicts of interest, greater regulatory oversight and more legal and contractual restrictions than that to which it would otherwise be subject if it had just one line of business. In addressing these conflicts and regulatory, legal and contractual requirements across its various businesses, Blackstone has implemented certain policies and procedures (e.g., information walls) that may reduce the benefits that Blackstone could otherwise expect to utilize for Link for purposes of identifying and managing our real estate investments. For example, Blackstone may come into possession of material non-public information with respect to companies that are clients of Blackstone or its affiliates, in which Link may be considering making an investment. As a consequence, that information, which could be of benefit to Link, might become restricted to those other businesses and otherwise be unavailable to Link, and could also restrict Link’s activities. Additionally, the terms of confidentiality or other agreements with or related to companies in which any investment vehicle of Blackstone has or has considered making an investment or which is otherwise a client of Blackstone and its affiliates may restrict or otherwise limit the ability of Blackstone or its affiliates, including Link, to engage in businesses or activities competitive with such companies.
Assignment and Sharing or Limitation of Rights. We may in the future will likely invest alongside other Blackstone Vehicles and in connection therewith have and may, for legal, tax, regulatory or other reasons which may be unrelated to us, share with or assign to such other Blackstone Vehicles certain of our rights, in whole or in part, or to limit our rights, including certain control- and/or foreclosure-related rights with respect to such shared investments and/or otherwise agree to implement certain procedures to mitigate conflicts of interest which typically involve maintaining a noncontrolling interest in any such investment and a forbearance of our rights, including certain non-economic rights (including following the vote of other third party lenders generally or otherwise being recused with respect to certain decisions, including with respect to both normal course ongoing matters (such as consent rights with respect to loan modifications in intercreditor agreements) and also defaults, foreclosures, workouts, restructurings and/or exit opportunities), subject to certain limitations. While it is expected that our participation in connection with any such investments and transactions would be negotiated by third parties on market prices, such investments and transactions will give rise to potential or actual conflicts of interest. We cannot make assurances that any such conflict will be resolved in our favor. To the extent we hold an interest in a loan or security that is different (including with respect to their relative seniority) than those held by such other Blackstone Vehicles (and vice versa), Link and its affiliates may be presented and/or may have limited or no rights with respect to decisions when the interests of the funds/vehicles are in conflict. Such sharing or assignment of rights could make it more difficult for us to protect our interests and could give rise to a conflict (which may be exacerbated in the case of financial distress) and could result in another Blackstone Vehicle exercising such rights in a way adverse to us.

Entering into Financing Transactions with Other Blackstone Vehicles. In connection with the closing of the Merger, in lieu of distributing all of the proceeds from the Mortgage Loans to fund the consideration for the Merger, certain amounts were loaned to the Parent Partners (the “Parent Partners Loans”). The Parent Partners Loans are evidenced by promissory notes, bear interest at 4.16253% per annum and mature in July 2027. The aggregate principal amount of the Parent Partners Loans is $1,285,575.We may from time to time engage in further financing transactions with Blackstone Vehicles. We and/or Blackstone may face conflicts of interest in connection with any borrowings or disputes related to such financing agreement(s) which may adversely impact us.
Pursuit of Differing Strategies. At times, the investment professionals employed by Link or its affiliates and other investment vehicles affiliated with Link and/or Blackstone may determine that an investment opportunity may be appropriate for only some of the accounts, clients, entities, funds and/or investment vehicles for which he or she exercises investment responsibility, or may decide that certain of the accounts, clients, entities, funds and/or investment vehicles should take differing positions with respect to a particular investment. In these cases, the investment professionals may place separate transactions for one or more accounts, clients, entities, funds and/or investment vehicles which may affect the market price of an investment or the execution of the transaction, or both, to the detriment or benefit of one or more other accounts, clients, entities, funds and/or investment vehicles.
Underwriting, Advisory and Other Relationships.As part of its regular business, Blackstone provides a broad range of underwriting, investment banking, placement agent services and other services. In connection with selling investments by way of a public offering, a Blackstone broker-dealer may act as the managing underwriter or a member of the underwriting syndicate on a firm commitment basis and purchase securities on that basis. Blackstone may retain any commissions, remuneration, or other profits and receive compensation from such underwriting activities, which have the potential to create conflicts of interest. Blackstone may also participate in underwriting syndicates from time to time with respect to us or portfolio companies/entities of Blackstone Vehicles, or may otherwise be involved in the private placement of debt or equity securities issued by us or such portfolio companies/entities, or otherwise in arranging financings with respect thereto or advising on such transactions. Subject to applicable law, Blackstone may receive underwriting fees, placement commissions, or other compensation with respect to such activities, which will not be shared with us or our stockholders.
In the regular course of its investment banking business, Blackstone represents potential purchasers, sellers and other involved parties, including corporations, financial buyers, management, shareholders and institutions, with respect to assets that are suitable for investment by us. In such case, Blackstone’s client would typically require Blackstone to act exclusively on its behalf, thereby precluding us from acquiring such assets. Blackstone is under no obligation to decline any such engagement to make the investment opportunity available to us.
Blackstone has long-term relationships with a significant number of corporations and their senior management. In determining whether to invest in a particular transaction on our behalf, Link may consider those relationships, which may result in certain transactions that Link will not undertake on our behalf in view of such relationships.
Service Providers. Certain of our service providers, or their affiliates (including accountants, administrators, lenders, brokers, attorneys, consultants, title agents, loan servicing and administration providers, property managers and investment banking or commercial banking firms) also provide goods or services to or have business, personal or other relationships with Blackstone. For example, Blackstone may hold equity or other investments in companies or businesses in the real estate related information technology and other industries that may provide products or services to or otherwise contract with us or other Blackstone Vehicles. In connection with any such investment, Blackstone or other Blackstone Vehicles (or their respective portfolio companies/entities) may make referrals or introductions to other portfolio companies/entities in an effort, in part, to increase the customer base of such companies or businesses, and therefore the value of the investment, or because such referrals or introductions may result in financial incentives (including additional equity ownership) and/or milestones benefiting the referring or introducing party that are tied or related to participation by portfolio companies/entities. We will not share in any fees, economics or equity accruing to Blackstone or such other Blackstone Vehicles as a result of these relationships. In addition, we may enter into agreements regarding group procurement (such as a group purchasing organization), benefits management, purchase of title and/or other insurance policies (which will from time to time be pooled and discounted due to scale) from a third party or a Blackstone affiliate, and other similar operational, administrative, or management related initiatives that result in commissions, discounts or similar payments to Blackstone or its affiliates (including personnel), including related to a portion of the savings achieved. Such service providers may be sources of investment opportunities or co-investors or commercial counterparties. Such relationships may influence Link in deciding whether to select such service provider. In certain circumstances, service providers, or their affiliates, may charge different rates (including below-market rates or at

no cost) or have different arrangements for services provided to Blackstone or its affiliates as compared to services provided to us, which in certain circumstances may result in more favorable rates or arrangements than those payable by us.
In addition, certain advisors and service providers (including law firms) may temporarily provide their personnel to Blackstone, us or other Blackstone Vehicles or their portfolio companies pursuant to various arrangements including at cost or at no cost. While often we and such other Blackstone-advised funds and their portfolio companies are the beneficiaries of these types of arrangements, Blackstone is from time to time a beneficiary of these arrangements as well, including in circumstances where the advisor or service provider also provides services to us in the ordinary course. Such personnel may provide services in respect of multiple matters, including in respect of matters related to Blackstone, its affiliates and/or portfolio companies and any costs of such personnel may be allocated accordingly.
For example, Lexington National Land Services, or LNLS, is a Blackstone affiliate that (i) acts as a title agent in facilitating and issuing title insurance, (ii) provides title support services for title insurance underwriters and (iii) acts as escrow agent in connection with investments by us, other Blackstone Vehicles and their portfolio entities, affiliates and related parties, and third parties, including, from time to time, our borrowers. In exchange for such services LNLS earns fees which would have otherwise been paid to third parties. If LNLS is involved in a transaction in which we participate, Blackstone will benchmark the relevant costs to the extent market data is available except when LNLS is providing such services in a state where the insurance premium or escrow fee, as applicable, is regulated by the state or when LNLS is part of a syndicate of title insurance companies where the insurance premium is negotiated by other title insurance underwriters or their agents.
Gryphon Mutual Captive Insurance, or Gryphon, is a captive insurance company owned by funds and accounts managed by Blackstone. A Blackstone affiliate provides oversight and management services to the captive and receives fees based on a percentage of premiums retained by it. The fees and expenses of the captive, including fees paid to its manager, are borne by its participants (including Blackstone-managed funds and accounts) pro rata based on estimates of insurance premiums that would have been payable for each party’s respective properties, as benchmarked by third parties, and will be paid by each participant annually. Participants pool their risk through Gryphon, with a $50 million shared deductible, resulting in lower expenses than insurance procured through brokers and other traditional means. We reimburse the pro rata amount of costs and expenses incurred by Blackstone-advised funds arising out of the indirect participation (through such funds) by the Company of risk pooling through Gryphon.
Material, Non-Public Information. We, directly or through Blackstone, Link or certain of their respective affiliates may come into possession of material non-public information. Disclosure of such information to the personnel responsible for management of our business may be on a need-to-know basis only, and we may not be free to act upon any such information. Therefore, we and/or Link may not have access to material non-public information in the possession of Blackstone which might be relevant to an investment decision to be made by Link on our behalf, and Link may initiate a transaction or purchase or sell an investment which, if such information had been known to it, may not have been undertaken. Due to these restrictions, Link may not be able to initiate a transaction on our behalf that it otherwise might have initiated and may not be able to purchase or sell an investment that it otherwise might have purchased or sold, which could negatively affect our operations.
Possible Future Activities. Link and its affiliates may expand the range of services that they provide over time. Link and its affiliates will generally not be restricted in the scope of its business or in the performance of any such services (whether now offered or undertaken in the future) even if such activities could give rise to conflicts of interest, and whether or not such conflicts are described herein. Link, Blackstone and their affiliates continue to develop relationships with a significant number of companies, financial conditionsponsors and operating resultstheir senior managers, including relationships with clients who may hold or may have held investments similar to those intended to be made by us. These clients may themselves represent appropriate investment opportunities for us or may compete with us for investment opportunities.In addition, Blackstone may enter into one or more strategic relationships in certain regions or with respect to certain types of investments that, although intended to provide greater opportunities for us, may require us to share such opportunities or otherwise limit the amount of an opportunity we can otherwise take.
Transactions with Blackstone Vehicles. From time to time, we may enter into purchase and could causesale transactions with Blackstone Vehicles. Such transactions will be conducted in accordance with, our internal corporate policies and applicable laws and regulations.

Family Relationships. Certain personnel and other professionals of Blackstone have family members or relatives that are actively involved in the industries and sectors in which we invest and/or have business, personal, financial or other relationships with companies in the real estate industry, which gives rise to potential or actual resultsconflicts of interest. For example, such family members or relatives might be officers, directors, personnel or owners of companies or assets which are actual or potential investments of us or our other counterparties. Moreover, in certain instances, we may transact with companies that are owned by such family members or relatives or in respect of which such family members or relatives have other involvement. In most such circumstances, we will not be precluded from undertaking any of these investment activities or transactions. To the extent Blackstone determines appropriate, it may put in place conflict mitigation strategies with respect to differ materially from expectations. Therea particular circumstance, such as internal information barriers or recusal, disclosure or other steps determined appropriate by Blackstone or Link.
Link’s liability is limited under our Services Agreement and we have been no material changesagreed to indemnify Link against certain liabilities.
Under the terms of the Services Agreement, Link and its affiliates are not liable to us for any acts or omissions performed in accordance with and pursuant to the risk factors relatingServices Agreement, except by reason of (i) any acts of Link or of any its direct and indirect partners, stockholders, members, employees, agents, officers, directors, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Link Related Parties”) beyond the scope of its authority under the Services Agreement, (ii) any material breach by Link under the Services Agreement, and (iii) any fraudulent or grossly negligent act or omission or any act or omission that constitutes willful misconduct of Link or the Link Related Parties. We have agreed to indemnify Link and its affiliates with respect to all expenses, losses, damages, liabilities, demands, charges and claims arising from acts or omissions of Link within the scope of the Services Agreement other than for (i) any acts of Link or the Link Related Parties beyond the scope of its authority under the Services Agreement, (ii) any material breach by Link under the Services Agreement, and (iii) any fraudulent or grossly negligent act or omission or any act or omission that constitutes willful misconduct of Link or the Link Related Parties. As a result, we could experience poor performance or losses for which Link would not be liable.
