1. Organization, Basis of Presentation

Saul Centers, Inc. (“Saul Centers”) was incorporated under the Maryland General Corporation Law on June 10, 1993, and operates as a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company is required to annually distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income (excluding net capital gains) to its stockholders and meet certain organizational and other requirements. Saul Centers has made and intends to continue to make regular quarterly distributions to its stockholders. Saul Centers, together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries and the limited partnerships of which Saul Centers or one of its subsidiaries is the sole general partner, are referred to collectively as the “Company.” B. Francis Saul II serves as Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of Saul Centers.

The Company, which conducts all of its activities through its subsidiaries, Saul Holdings Limited Partnership, a Maryland limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) and ~~two~~2 subsidiary limited partnerships (the “Subsidiary Partnerships,” and, collectively with the Operating Partnership, the “Partnerships”), engages in the ownership, operation, management, leasing, acquisition, renovation, expansion, development and financing of community and neighborhood shopping centers and mixed-use properties, primarily in the Washington, DC/Baltimore metropolitan area.

As of ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, the Company’s properties (the “Current Portfolio Properties”) consisted of 50 shopping center properties (the “Shopping Centers”), 7 mixed-use properties, which are comprised of office, retail and multi-family residential uses (the “Mixed-Use Properties”) and 4 (non-operating) development properties.

Because the properties are located primarily in the Washington, DC/Baltimore metropolitan area, the Company is subject to a concentration of credit risk related to these properties. A majority of the Shopping Centers are anchored by one or more major tenants. As of ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, 33 of the Shopping Centers were anchored by a grocery store and offer primarily day-to-day necessities and services. Giant Food, a tenant at 11 Shopping Centers, individually accounted for ~~5.5%~~5.2% of the Company's total revenue for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2021.~~March 31, 2022. No other tenant individually accounted for 2.5% or more of the Company’s total revenue, excluding lease termination fees, for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2021.~~March 31, 2022.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Saul Centers and its subsidiaries, including the ~~Operating Partnership and Subsidiary~~ Partnerships, which are majority owned by Saul Centers. Substantially all assets and liabilities of the Company as of ~~June 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, are comprised of the assets and liabilities of the Operating Partnership. ~~The debt~~Debt arrangements ~~which are~~ subject to recourse are described in Note 5. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Operating Partnership is a variable interest entity ("VIE") because the limited partners do not have substantive kick-out or participating rights. The Company is the primary beneficiary of the Operating Partnership because it has the power to direct its activities and the rights to absorb ~~73.4%~~71.9% of its net income. Because the Operating Partnership is consolidated into the financial statements of the Company, classification of it as a VIE has no impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations of the Company for the interim periods have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, which are included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant to those instructions. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020~~2021 have not changed significantly in amount or composition.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates and assumptions relate to collectability of operating lease receivables and impairment of real estate properties. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Accounts Receivable, Accrued Income and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are primarily ~~represent amounts currently~~comprised of rental and reimbursement billings due from tenants, ~~in accordance with~~and straight-line rent receivables representing the ~~terms~~cumulative amount of ~~their respective leases.~~adjustments necessary to present rental income on a straight-line basis. Individual leases are assessed for collectability and, upon the determination that the collection of rents is not probable, accrued rent and accounts receivable are charged off, ~~which~~and the charge off is reflected as an adjustment to rental revenue. Revenue from leases where collection is not probable is recorded on a cash basis until collectability is determined to be probable. Further, we assess whether operating lease receivables, at the portfolio level, are appropriately valued based upon an analysis of balances outstanding, historical bad debt levels and current economic trends. As of ~~June 30, 2021, $3.2~~March 31, 2022, $6.7 million of rents previously deferred ~~rents~~ have come due. Of the amounts that have come due, ~~$3.1~~$6.5 million, or approximately 97%, has been paid.

At ~~June 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, accounts receivable was comprised of:

(In thousands) June 30, 2021 December 31, 2020
Rents currently due $ 6,649 $ 13,321
Deferred rents 6,279 8,205
Straight-line rent 46,255 44,863
Other receivables 4,949 3,751
Allowance for doubtful accounts (4,389) (5,223)
Total $ 59,743 $ 64,917

~~Recently Issued Accounting Standards~~

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses" ("ASU 2016-13"). ASU 2016-13 replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of information to support credit loss estimates. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those years. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 effective January 1, 2020, did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures because the vast majority of the Company's receivables relate to operating leases which are accounted for under ASC 842, "Leases."


(In thousands)	March 31, 2022		December 31, 2021
Rents currently due	$	5,728	$	8,484
Deferred rents	3,710		4,141

Total	$	56,357	$	58,659

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial statements to conform to the presentation used for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2021.~~March 31, 2022.

Construction In Progress

Construction in progress includes land, preconstruction and development costs of active projects. Preconstruction costs include legal, zoning and permitting costs and other project carrying costs incurred prior to the commencement of construction. Development costs include direct construction costs and indirect costs incurred subsequent to the start of construction such as architectural, engineering, construction management and carrying costs consisting of interest, real estate taxes and insurance. ~~During the six months ended June 30, 2021, assets totaling $8.7 million were placed in service in conjunction with the substantial completion of The Waycroft.~~

Construction in progress as of ~~June 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, is composed of the following:

Leases

We lease Shopping Centers and Mixed-Use Properties to lessees in exchange for monthly payments that cover rent, and, where applicable, reimbursement for property taxes, insurance, and certain property operating expenses. Our leases have been determined to be operating leases and generally range in term from one to 15 years.

Some of our leases have termination options and/or extension options. Termination options allow the lessee and/or lessor to terminate the lease prior to the end of the lease term, provided certain conditions are met. Termination options generally require advance notification from the lessee and/or lessor and payment of a termination fee. Termination fees are recognized as revenue over the modified lease term. Extension options are subject to terms and conditions stated in the lease.

~~On January 1, 2019, an~~An operating lease right of use asset and corresponding lease liability related to our headquarters ~~lease were recorded~~sublease are reflected in other assets and other liabilities, respectively. The ~~lease~~sublease expires on February 28, ~~2022, with 1 option to renew for an additional five years.~~2027. The right of use asset and corresponding lease liability totaled ~~$512,500~~$3.7 million and ~~$530,200,~~$3.7 million, respectively, at ~~June 30, 2021.~~March 31, 2022.

Due to the business disruptions and challenges severely affecting the global economy caused by the novel strain of coronavirus ~~(“COVID-19”~~("COVID-19") pandemic, many lessees ~~have~~ requested rent relief, including rent deferrals and other lease concessions. The lease modification guidance in Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, "Accounting for Leases"
("ASU ~~2016-02~~2016-02") does not contemplate the rapid execution of concessions for multiple tenants in response to sudden liquidity constraints of lessees. In April 2020, the ~~FASB~~ staff of the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a question and answer document that provided guidance allowing the Company to elect to either apply the lease modification accounting framework or not, with such election applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances. The Company ~~has~~ elected to apply such relief, which, in the case of rent deferrals, results in the accrual of rent due from ~~tenants and defers the payment of that rent~~tenants. The Company will continue to ~~a future date, and will~~ monitor the collectability of rent receivables.

Deferred Leasing Costs

Deferred leasing costs primarily consist of ~~commissions paid to third-party~~initial direct costs incurred in connection with successful property leasing and ~~internal leasing agents, internal costs such as payroll-related fringe benefits that are direct and incremental to successful commercial leases,~~ amounts attributed to in-place leases associated with acquired ~~properties~~properties. Such amounts are capitalized and amortized, using the straight-line method, over the term of the lease or the remaining term of an acquired lease. Initial direct costs primarily consist of leasing commissions, which are costs paid to third-party brokers and lease ~~inducement costs. Effective with the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019, all costs incurred prior~~commissions paid to ~~the execution of~~certain employees that are incremental to obtaining a lease ~~are charged to expense~~ and would not ~~capitalized.~~have been incurred if the lease had not been obtained. Unamortized deferred ~~leasing~~ costs are charged to expense if the applicable lease is terminated prior to expiration of the initial lease term. ~~Deferred leasing costs are amortized over the term of the lease or remaining term of acquired leases.~~ Collectively, deferred leasing costs totaled ~~$25.5~~$23.4 million and ~~$26.9~~$24.0 million, net of accumulated amortization of ~~$46.6~~$49.3 million and ~~$44.5~~$48.7 million, as of ~~June 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, respectively. Amortization expense, included in depreciation and amortization of lease costs in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, totaled ~~$2.4~~$1.1 million and ~~$2.7~~$1.2 million for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2022 and 2021, ~~and 2020,~~ respectively.

Real Estate Investment Properties

Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method and estimated useful lives of generally between 35 and 50 years for base buildings, or a shorter period if management determines that the building has a shorter useful life, and up to 20 years for certain other improvements that extend the useful lives. Leasehold improvement expenditures are capitalized when certain criteria are met, including when the Company supervises construction and will own the improvements. Tenant improvements are amortized, over the shorter of the lives of the related leases or the useful life of the improvements, using the straight-line method. Depreciation expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations totaled ~~$22.9~~$11.2 million and ~~$21.2~~$11.5 million for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2022 and 2021, ~~and 2020,~~ respectively. Repairs and maintenance expense totaled ~~$7.0~~$4.5 million and ~~$5.2~~$3.9 million for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2022 and 2021, ~~and 2020,~~ respectively, and is included in property operating expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

As of ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, we have not identified any impairment triggering events, including the impact of COVID-19 and corresponding tenant requests for rent relief. Therefore, under applicable GAAP guidance, 0no impairment charges were recorded.

~~Acquisitions~~

On November 5, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement (the “Twinbrook Contribution Agreement”) to acquire from the B. F. Saul Real Estate Investment Trust (the “Trust”) approximately 6.8 acres of land and its leasehold interest in approximately 1.3 acres of contiguous land, together in each case with the improvements located thereon, located at the Twinbrook Metro Station in Rockville, Maryland (the “Contributed Property”). The Contributed Property is immediately adjacent to approximately 10.3 acres owned by the Company. In exchange for the Contributed Property, the Company will issue to the Trust 1,416,071 limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership, representing an aggregate value of $79.3 million for the Contributed Property. Title to the Contributed Property and the units were placed in escrow until certain conditions of the Twinbrook Contribution Agreement were satisfied.

The units issued to the Trust will remain in escrow until the conditions of the Twinbrook Contribution Agreement, as amended, are satisfied. Half of the units held in escrow will be released on the "Second Escrow Release" date which is defined as the later of (a) October 18, 2021 or (b) ten (10) days following the date on which there is a final, non-appealable resolution, in a manner favorable to the Company, of certain proceedings relating to the site plan (or, if such proceedings are resolved in a manner favorable to the appellant, ten (10) days following the date on which a substitute site plan relating to the Contributed Property has been approved by the Planning Commission of the City of Rockville and such approval has become final and non-appealable). The remaining units held in escrow are scheduled to be released two years after the Second Escrow Release.

On March 5, 2021, the Company entered into an amendment to the Twinbrook Contribution Agreement in which it and the Trust agreed to release to the Company from escrow the deed and assignment of the leasehold interest of the Contributed Property, as of that date, and reimbursed the Trust for certain expenses pursuant to the Twinbrook Contribution Agreement totaling $7.4 million. Acquisition costs totaled $1.2 million. The Company recorded a finance lease right-of-use asset of $19.4 million and corresponding lease liability of $19.4 million related to the leasehold interest assumed in the transaction. The incremental borrowing rate used to calculate the lease liability was 5.63%.

On June 29, 2021, the third-party landlord under the ground lease contributed the fee simple interest in the land underlying the leasehold interest to the Company in exchange for 469,740 limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership, representing an aggregate value of $21.5 million. Acquisition costs were paid in cash and totaled $0.7 million. Accordingly, the finance lease right-of-use asset and finance lease liability were extinguished. Amortization expense and interest expense related to the lease totaled $104,000 and $362,800, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

4. Noncontrolling Interests - Holders of Convertible Limited Partnership Units in the Operating Partnership

As of ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, the B. F. Saul Company and certain other affiliated entities, each of which is controlled by B. Francis Saul II and his family members, (collectively, the “Saul Organization”) ~~hold~~held an aggregate ~~25.1%~~26.7% limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership represented by approximately ~~8.1~~8.8 million convertible limited partnership units. These units are convertible into shares of Saul Centers’ common stock, at the option of the unit holder, on a ~~one-for-one~~1-for-one basis provided that, in accordance with the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, the rights may not be exercised at any time that the Saul Organization beneficially owns or will own after the exercise, directly or indirectly, in the aggregate more than 39.9% of the value of the outstanding common stock and preferred stock of Saul Centers (the “Equity Securities”). As of ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, approximately ~~1.0 million~~350,000 units could be converted into shares of Saul Centers common stock.

~~Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)~~

As of ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, a third party investor holds a ~~1.5%~~1.4% limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership represented by ~~approximately 469,700~~469,740 convertible limited partnership units. At the option of the unit holder, these units are convertible into shares of Saul Centers’ common stock on a ~~one-for-one~~1-for-one basis; provided that, in lieu of the delivery of Saul Centers' common stock, Saul Centers may, in its sole discretion, deliver cash in an amount equal to the value of such Saul Centers' common stock.

The impact of the aggregate ~~26.6%~~28.1% limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership held by parties other than Saul Centers is reflected as Noncontrolling Interests in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Weighted average fully diluted partnership units and common stock outstanding for the three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2022 and 2021, ~~and 2020,~~ was approximately ~~33.0~~33.9 million and ~~31.2 million, respectively and for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, was approximately 32.5 million and 31.2~~32.0 million, respectively.

5. Notes Payable, Revolving Credit Facility, Interest and Amortization of Deferred Debt Costs

The principal amount of the Company’s outstanding debt totaled approximately $1.1 billion at June 30, 2021, of which approximately $957.1 million was fixed-rate debt and approximately $184.0 million was variable rate debt outstanding under the credit facility. The carrying value of the properties collateralizing the notes payable totaled approximately $1.1 billion as of June 30, 2021.

At ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, the Company had a ~~$400.0~~$525.0 million senior unsecured credit facility (the "Credit Facility") comprised of a ~~$325.0~~$425.0 million revolving credit facility and a ~~$75.0~~$100.0 million term loan. The revolving credit facility matures on August 29, 2025, which may be extended by the Company for one additional year, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. The term loan matures on February 26, 2027, and may not be extended. Interest accrues at a rate of LIBOR plus an applicable spread which is determined by certain leverage tests. As of ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, the applicable spread for borrowings was ~~140~~135 basis points ~~under~~related to the revolving credit facility and ~~135~~130 basis points ~~under~~related to the term loan. Letters of credit may be issued under the ~~revolving credit facility. As of June 30, 2021,~~Credit Facility. On March 31, 2022, based on the value of the Company’s unencumbered properties, approximately ~~$215.8~~$233.5 million was available under the ~~revolving credit facility, $109.0~~Credit Facility, $238.0 million was outstanding and approximately $185,000 was committed for letters of credit.

Per Share Data

Per share data for net income (basic and diluted) is computed using weighted average shares of common stock. Convertible limited partnership units and employee stock options are the Company’s potentially dilutive securities. For all periods presented, the convertible limited partnership units are non-dilutive. The following table sets forth, for the indicated periods, weighted averages of the number of common shares outstanding, basic and dilutive, the effect of dilutive options and the number of options which are not dilutive because the average price of the Company's common stock was less than the exercise prices. The treasury stock method was used to measure the effect of the dilution.

The B. F. Saul Insurance Agency, Inc., a subsidiary of the B. F. Saul Company and a member of the Saul Organization, is a general insurance agency that receives commissions and fees in connection with the Company’s insurance program. Such commissions and fees amounted to ~~$148,700~~$70,700 and ~~$224,400~~$99,100 for the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2022 and 2021, ~~and 2020,~~ respectively.

8. Stock-based Employee Compensation, Stock Option Plans, and Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors

In 2004, the Company established a stock incentive plan (the "Plan"), as amended. Under the Plan, options are granted at an exercise price not less than the market value of the common stock on the date of grant and expire ten years from the date of grant. Officer options vest ratably over four years following the grant and are charged to expense using the straight-line method over the vesting period. Director options vest immediately and are charged to expense as of the date of grant.

The Company uses the fair value method to value and account for employee stock options. The fair value of options granted is determined at the time of the grant using the Black-Scholes model, a widely used method for valuing stock-based employee compensation, and the following assumptions: (1) Expected Volatility determined using the most recent trading history of the Company’s common stock (month-end closing prices) corresponding to the average expected term of the options; (2) Average Expected Term of the options based on prior exercise history, scheduled vesting and the expiration date; (3) Expected Dividend Yield determined by management after considering the Company’s current and historic dividend yield, the Company’s yield in relation to other retail REITs and the Company’s market yield at the grant date; and (4) a Risk-free Interest Rate based upon the market yields of US Treasury obligations with maturities corresponding to the average expected term of the options at the grant date. The Company amortizes the value of options granted ratably over the vesting period and includes the amounts as compensation expense in general and administrative expenses.

Pursuant to the Plan, the Compensation Committee established a Deferred Compensation Plan for Directors for the benefit of the Company’s directors and their beneficiaries, which replaced a previous Deferred Compensation and Stock Plan for Directors. Annually, directors are given the ability to make an election to defer all or part of their fees and have the option to have their fees paid in cash, in shares of common stock or in a combination of cash and shares of common stock upon separation from the Board. If a director elects to have their fees paid in stock, fees earned during a calendar quarter are aggregated and divided by the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the first trading day of the following quarter to determine the number of shares to be credited to the director. During the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2021, 5,241~~March 31, 2022, 1,873 shares were credited to director's deferred fee accounts and ~~7,319~~6,535 shares were issued. As of ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, the director's deferred fee accounts comprise ~~116,550~~115,578 shares.

9. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses are reasonable estimates of their fair value. The aggregate fair value of the notes payable with fixed-rate payment terms was determined using Level 3 data in a discounted cash flow approach, which is based upon management’s estimate of borrowing rates and loan terms currently available to the Company for fixed-rate financing and, assuming long-term market interest rates of approximately ~~3.50%~~4.25% and ~~3.40%~~3.60%, would be approximately ~~$952.2~~$933.9 million and ~~$981.0~~$933.0 million, respectively, compared to the principal balance of ~~$957.1~~$912.6 million and ~~$980.8~~$949.0 million at ~~June 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022 and December 31, ~~2020,~~2021, respectively. A change in any of the significant inputs may lead to a change in the Company’s fair value measurement of its debt.

10. Commitments and Contingencies

Neither the Company nor the current portfolio properties are subject to any material litigation, nor, to management’s knowledge, is any material litigation currently threatened against the Company, other than routine litigation and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes that these items, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse impact on the Company or the current portfolio properties.

~~12. Impact of COVID-19~~

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared a novel strain of coronavirus ("COVID-19") a pandemic, and on March 13, 2020, the United States declared a national emergency with respect to COVID-19. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic is negatively affecting almost every industry directly or indirectly.

The actions taken by federal, state and local governments to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 by ordering closure of nonessential businesses and ordering residents to generally stay at home, and subsequent phased re-openings, have resulted in many of our tenants announcing mandated or temporary closures of their operations and/or requesting adjustments to their lease terms. Overall, there remains significant uncertainty around the long-term economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which could have a material and adverse effect on or cause disruption to our business or financial condition, results from operations, cash flows and the market value and trading price of our securities.

While the Company’s grocery store, pharmacy, bank and home improvement store tenants generally remain fully open, many restaurants are operating with reduced hours and/or limited indoor seating, supplemented with delivery and curbside pick-up, and most health, beauty supply and services, fitness centers, and other non-essential businesses are re-opening with limited customer capacity depending on location. The Company is generally not charging late fees or delinquent interest on past due rent payments and, in many cases, rent deferral agreements are being negotiated to allow tenants temporary relief where needed. ~~As of June 30, 2021, $3.2 million of deferred rents have come due. Of the amounts that have come due, $3.1 million has been paid.~~

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements contained herein constitute forward-looking statements as such term is defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. Our future results, financial condition and business may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. You can find many of these statements by looking for words such as “plans,” “intends,” “estimates,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “believes” or similar expressions in this Form 10-Q. Although management believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are based upon present expectations and reasonable assumptions, our actual results could differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time, unless required by law. The following are some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all risks and uncertainties, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements:

•challenging domestic and global credit markets and their effect on discretionary spending;

•the ability of our tenants to pay rent;

•our reliance on shopping center “anchor” tenants and other significant tenants;

•our substantial relationships with members of the Saul Organization;

•risks of financing, such as increases in interest rates, restrictions imposed by our debt, our ability to meet existing financial covenants and our ability to consummate planned and additional financings on acceptable terms;

•our development activities;

•our access to additional capital;

•our ability to successfully complete additional acquisitions, developments or redevelopments, or if they are completed, whether such acquisitions, developments or redevelopments perform as expected;

•risks generally incident to the ownership of real property, including adverse changes in economic conditions, changes in the investment climate for real estate, changes in real estate taxes and other operating expenses, adverse changes in governmental rules and fiscal policies, the relative illiquidity of real estate and environmental risks;

•risks related to our status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, such as the existence of complex regulations relating to our status as a REIT, the effect of future changes to REIT requirements as a result of new legislation and the adverse consequences of the failure to qualify as a REIT; and

•an epidemic or pandemic (such as the outbreak and worldwide spread of COVID-19), and the measures that international, federal, state and local governments, agencies, law enforcement and/or health authorities implement to address it, which may (as with COVID-19) precipitate or exacerbate one or more of the above-mentioned and/or other risks, and significantly disrupt or prevent us from operating our business in the ordinary course for an extended period.

Additional information related to these risks and uncertainties are included in “Risk Factors” (Part I, Item 1A of this Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020)~~2021), “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” (Part I, Item 3 of this Form 10-Q and Part II, Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2020)~~2021), and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations” (Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q).

Impact of COVID-19

The actions taken by federal, state and local governments to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 by ordering closure of nonessential businesses and ordering residents to generally stay at home, and subsequent phased re-openings, ~~have~~ resulted in many of our tenants announcing mandated or temporary closures of their operations and/or requesting adjustments to their lease terms. ~~Overall,~~While most of our tenants that closed due to COVID-19 have re-opened their businesses, there remains significant uncertainty around the long-term economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which could have a material and adverse effect on or cause disruption to our business or financial condition, results from operations, cash flows and the market value and trading price of our securities.

If the effects of COVID-19 result in continued deterioration of economic and market conditions, or if the Company’s expected holding period for assets changes, subsequent tests for impairment could result in impairment charges in the future. The Company can provide no assurance that material impairment charges with respect to the Company’s investment properties will not occur during the remainder of ~~2021~~2022 or future periods. As of ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, we have not identified any impairment triggering events, including the impact of COVID-19 and corresponding tenant requests for rent relief. Therefore, under applicable GAAP guidance, no impairment charges have been recorded. However, we have yet to see the long-term effects of COVID-19 and the extent to which it may impact our tenants in the future. Indications of a tenant’s inability to continue as a going concern, changes in our view or strategy relative to a tenant’s business or industry as a result of COVID-19, or changes in our long-term hold strategies, could be indicative of an impairment triggering event. Accordingly, the Company will continue to monitor circumstances and events in future periods to determine whether impairment charges are warranted.

While the Company’s grocery store, pharmacy, bank and home improvement store tenants have generally ~~remain~~remained fully open throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, many restaurants ~~are operating~~have operated with reduced hours and/or limited indoor seating, supplemented with delivery and curbside pick-up, and most health, beauty supply and services, fitness centers, and other non-essential businesses are ~~re-opening~~open with limited ~~customer~~or full capacity depending on location. As of ~~July 31, 2021,~~April 30, 2022, payments by tenants of contractual base rent and operating expense and real estate tax recoveries for the 2022 first quarter totaled approximately 98% ~~for the second quarter~~.. The Company is generally not charging late fees or delinquent interest on past due payments and, in many cases, rent deferral agreements have been negotiated to allow tenants temporary relief where needed. The deferral agreements, generally, permit tenants to defer 30 to 90 days of rent, operating expense and real estate tax recovery payments until a later time in their lease term with repayment typically occurring over a 12-month period generally commencing in 2021. We expect that our rent collections will continue to be below our tenants’ contractual rent obligations for so long as governmental orders require non-essential businesses to remain at limited capacity or closed and residents to stay at home. We will continue to accrue rental revenue during the deferral period. However, we anticipate that some tenants eventually will not be able to pay amounts due and we will incur losses against our rent receivables. The extent and timing of the recognition of such losses will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. Management considers reserves established as of March 31, 2022, against such potential losses to be reasonable and adequate. Rent collections during the ~~second~~first quarter and rent relief requests to-date may not be indicative of collections or requests in any future period.

The following is a summary of the Company's executed rent deferral agreements and ~~repayment dates~~repayments as of ~~July 31, 2021,~~April 30, 2022, with the exception of amounts due, which are as of ~~June 30, 2021.~~March 31, 2022.

~~The following is a summary of the Company's consolidated total~~While we expect collections of ~~the first quarter, second quarter and July 2021~~ rent billings, including minimum rent, operating expense recoveries and real estate tax reimbursements, to remain below pre-pandemic levels in the near-term, when taking into account the amount of time elapsed since the due date of the payment, we continue to experience sequential improvement in our collection rates.

The executed deferrals typically cover three months of rent and are generally scheduled to be paid during 2021 and 2022. As a condition to granted rent deferrals, we have sought, and in some cases received, extended lease terms, or waivers of certain adjacent use or common area restrictions.

Although the Company is and will continue to be actively engaged in rent collection efforts related to uncollected rent, and the Company will continue to work with certain tenants who have requested rent deferrals, the Company can provide no assurance that such efforts or our efforts in future periods will be successful, particularly in the event that the COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions intended to prevent its spread continue for a prolonged period. The Company strongly encouraged small business tenants to apply for Paycheck Protection Program loans, as available, under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security ~~(“CARES”)~~ Act. The Company has information that many tenants applied for these loans and several tenants have communicated that loan proceeds ~~are being~~were received and have subsequently remitted rental payments.

As of ~~July 31, 2021,~~April 30, 2022, the Company had ~~$10.1~~$6.8 million of cash and cash equivalents and borrowing availability of approximately ~~$203.8~~$217.5 million under its ~~unsecured revolving credit facility.~~Credit Facility.

The extent of the effects of COVID-19 on the Company’s business, results of operations, cash flows, and growth prospects is highly uncertain and will ultimately depend on future developments, none of which can be predicted with any certainty. See Item 1A. Risk Factors. However, we believe the actions we have taken and are continuing to take ~~will help~~have helped minimize interruptions to operations and will put the Company in the best position ~~to participate in~~as the economic recovery ~~when the time comes.~~continues. Management and the Board of Directors will continue to actively monitor the effects of the pandemic, including governmental directives in the jurisdictions in which we operate and the recommendations of public health authorities, and will, as needed, take further measures to adapt the Company’s business in the best interests of our stockholders and personnel. The extent to which COVID-19 ~~impacts~~continues to impact our operations and those of our tenants will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of the outbreak, the actions

taken to contain the outbreak or mitigate its impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the outbreak and containment measures, among others.

In accordance with guidance issued by state and local health ~~authority guidance~~authorities and with safety protocols in place as recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, on June 1, 2021, the Company began transitioning employees from a remote working environment to working in the office. On November 1, 2021, the Company formally reopened, without occupancy restrictions, its corporate office in Bethesda, Maryland. The Company does not anticipate any adverse impact on its ability to continue to operate its business during the transition back to the office.

General

The following discussion is based primarily on the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30, 2021.~~March 31, 2022.

Overview

The Company’s primary strategy is to continue to focus on diversification of its assets through development of ~~transit-centric,~~transit-oriented, residential mixed-use projects in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. The Company’s operating strategy also includes improvement of the operating performance ~~and~~of its assets, internal growth of its Shopping Centers through the addition of pad sites, and supplementing its development ~~of residential mixed-used projects~~pipeline with selective redevelopment and renovations of its core Shopping Centers. The residential component of The Waycroft, a project with 491 apartment units and 60,000 square feet of retail space, on North Glebe Road, within two blocks of the Ballston Metro Station, in Arlington, Virginia was placed into service in April 2020. The Company ~~also~~ has a pipeline of ~~zoned~~entitled sites in its portfolio, some of which are currently shopping center operating properties, for development of up to 3,700 apartment units and 975,000 square feet of retail and office space. All such sites are located adjacent to red line Metro stations in Montgomery County, Maryland.

The Company intends to selectively add free-standing pad site buildings within its Shopping Center portfolio, and replace underperforming tenants with tenants that generate strong traffic, including anchor stores such as supermarkets and drug stores. The Company has seven new pad site tenants, including three at our newly developed Ashbrook Marketplace shopping center, that began paying rent in 2020. Annualized rent from these seven pad sites totals approximately $1.1 million. Additionally, the Company has executed leases or leases are under negotiation for ten more pad ~~sites, tenants of five of which are expected to begin paying rent in 2021. The annualized rent from these ten pad sites is expected to total approximately $1.6 million.~~sites.

In recent years, there has been a limited amount of quality properties for sale and pricing of those properties has escalated. Accordingly, management believes acquisition opportunities for investment in existing and new shopping center and mixed-use

-20-

Table of Contents

properties in the near future is uncertain. Nevertheless, because of the Company’s conservative capital structure, including its cash and capacity under its revolving credit facility, management believes that the Company is positioned to take advantage of additional investment opportunities as attractive properties are identified and market conditions improve. (See “Item 1. Business - Capital Policies”.) It is management’s view that several of the sub-markets in which the Company operates have, or are expected to have in the future, attractive supply/demand characteristics. The Company will continue to evaluate acquisition, development and redevelopment as integral parts of its overall business plan.

Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, economic conditions within the local Washington, DC metropolitan area ~~had remained~~were relatively stable. Issues facing the Federal government relating to taxation, spending and interest rate policy will likely continue to impact the office, retail and residential real estate markets over the coming years. Because the majority of the Company’s property operating income is produced by our Shopping Centers, we continually monitor the implications of government policy changes, as well as shifts in consumer demand between on-line and in-store shopping, on future shopping center construction and retailer store expansion plans. Based on our observations, we continue to adapt our marketing and merchandising strategies in ways to maximize our future performance. The Company's commercial leasing percentage, on a same property basis, which excludes the impact of properties not in operation for the entirety of the comparable periods, ~~decreased~~increased to 92.5% at ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, from ~~94.7%~~92.2% at June 30, 2020. We expect the volume of lease renewals in 2021, and the rental rates at which leases renew, will be negatively impacted by the effects of COVID-19 when comparing executed retail leases to prior year leasing activity.March 31, 2021.

The Company maintains a ratio of total debt to total asset value of under 50%, which allows the Company to obtain additional secured borrowings if necessary. As of ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, amortizing fixed-rate mortgage debt with staggered maturities from 2022 to ~~2035~~2041 represented approximately ~~83.9%~~79.3% of the Company’s notes payable, thus minimizing refinancing risk. The Company’s variable-rate debt consists of ~~$184.0~~$238.0 million outstanding under the ~~credit facility.~~Credit Facility. As of ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, the Company has availability of approximately ~~$215.8~~$233.5 million under its ~~$325.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility.~~

Credit Facility.

Although it is management’s present intention to concentrate future acquisition and development activities on transit-centric, primarily residential mixed-use properties in the Washington, D.C./Baltimore metropolitan area, the Company may, in the future, also acquire other types of real estate in other areas of the country as opportunities present themselves. The Company plans to continue to diversify in terms of property types, locations, size and market, and it does not set any limit on the amount or percentage of assets that may be invested in any one property or any one geographic area.

The following table sets forth average annualized base rent per square foot and average annualized effective rent per square foot for the Company's Commercial properties (all properties except for the apartments within The Waycroft, Clarendon Center and Park Van Ness ~~apartments)~~properties). For purposes of this table, annualized effective rent is annualized base rent minus amortized tenant improvements and amortized leasing commissions.

Recent Developments

The Company completed construction of The Waycroft, a project with 491 apartment units and 60,000 square feet of retail space on 2.8 acres of land located on North Glebe Road in Arlington, Virginia, and apartment occupancy commenced in April 2020. The total cost of the project, including acquisition of land, is expected to be approximately $279.0 million. A portion of the cost is being financed with a $157.0 million construction-to-permanent loan. Including approximately $19.1 million of capitalized interest, costs incurred through June 30, 2021 total approximately $277.9 million, of which $148.5 million has been financed by the loan. Leases have been executed for a 41,500 square foot Target and 12,600 square feet of retail shop space, resulting in approximately 90% of the planned retail space being leased. Target began operating in August 2020 and 2,400 square feet of retail space became operational during the third quarter of 2020. As of June 30, 2021, the residential component of The Waycroft was 99.2% leased.

In August 2016, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire from the Trust approximately 13.7 acres of land located at the intersection of Ashburn Village Boulevard and Russell Branch Parkway in Ashburn, Virginia. The transaction closed on May 9, 2018, and the Company issued 176,680 limited partnership units to the Trust. The Company constructed a shopping center, Ashbrook Marketplace, which, as of June 30, 2021, is 100% leased. On June 30, 2021, the Company issued 93,674 additional limited partnership units as additional consideration to the Trust in accordance with the Ashbrook Contribution Agreement, as amended.

In September 2018, the Company purchased for $35.5 million, plus $0.7 million of acquisition costs, an office building and the underlying ground located at 7316 Wisconsin Avenue, in Bethesda, Maryland. In December 2018, the Company purchased for $4.5 million, including acquisition costs, an interest in an adjacent parcel of land and retail building.

~~On November 5, 2019, the Company~~ entered into a ~~Twinbrook Contribution Agreement~~contract with a general contractor and construction is expected to acquire the Contributed Property from the Trust. The Contributed Property is immediately adjacent to approximately 10.3 acres owned by the Company. In exchange for the Contributed Property, the Company will issue to the Trust 1,416,071 limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership. Title to the Contributed Property and the units were placed in escrow until certain conditionsbe completed during 2025.

~~On March 5, 2021, the Company entered into an amendment to the Twinbrook Contribution Agreement in which it and the Trust agreed to release to the Company from escrow the deed and assignment~~Development of the ~~leasehold interest~~residential and retail portions of ~~the Contributed Property, as of that date, and reimburse the Trust for certain expenses pursuant to the~~ Twinbrook Contribution Agreement. The units will remain in escrow until the conditions of the Twinbrook Contribution Agreement, as amended, are satisfied. Saul Centers and certain consolidated subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership have guaranteed the payment obligations of the Operating Partnership under the credit facility.

The Company acquired title to the property earlier than originally contemplated in order to have complete control over the final aspects of predevelopment, project bidding, contractor selection and lender discussions in support of Phase I. This control will also assure the preservation of the Wegmans lease and its value to this site and, as importantly, to the Company’s adjacent holdings.

The full project plan for redevelopment of a major mixed-use project spanning both the Company’s property and the Contributed Property was finalized in 2019 and rights to develop the project extend for a thirty-year term to 2049.

The office portion of Phase I will not be constructed at this time. In connection with the development of the residential and retail portions of Phase I, we must also invest in infrastructure and other items that will support both Phase I and other portions of the development of Twinbrook Quarter. The total cost of the project is expected to be approximately $331.5 million, of which $271.4 million is related to the development of the residential and retail portions of Phase I and $60.1 million is related to infrastructure and other items.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), which requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reporting of financial position and results of operations. If judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied resulting in a different presentation of the financial statements. The Company has identified the following policies that, due to estimates and assumptions inherent in these policies, involve a relatively high degree of judgment and complexity.

Real Estate Investments

Real estate investment properties are stated at historic cost less depreciation. Although the Company intends to own its real estate investment properties over a long term, from time to time it will evaluate its market position, market conditions, and other factors and may elect to sell properties that do not conform to the Company’s investment profile. Management believes that the Company’s real estate assets have generally appreciated in value since their acquisition or development and, accordingly, the aggregate current value exceeds their aggregate net book value and also exceeds the value of the Company’s liabilities as reported in the financial statements. Because the financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP, they do not report the current value of the Company’s real estate investment properties.

If there is an event or change in circumstance that indicates a potential impairment in the value of a real estate investment property, the Company prepares an analysis to determine whether the carrying value of the real estate investment property exceeds its estimated fair value. The Company considers both quantitative and qualitative factors when identifying impairment indicators including recurring operating losses, significant decreases in occupancy, and significant adverse changes in market conditions, legal factors and business climate. If impairment indicators are present, the Company compares the projected cash flows of the property over its remaining useful life, on an undiscounted basis, to the carrying value of that property. The Company assesses its undiscounted projected cash flows based upon estimated capitalization rates, historic operating results and market conditions that may affect the property. If the carrying value is greater than the undiscounted projected cash flows, the Company would recognize an impairment loss equivalent to an amount required to adjust the carrying amount to its then

~~-26-~~

~~Table of Contents~~

estimated fair value. The fair value of any property is sensitive to the actual results of any of the aforementioned estimated factors, either individually or taken as a whole. Should the actual results differ from management’s projections, the valuation could be negatively or positively affected.

Accounts Receivable, Accrued Income, and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable primarily represent amounts currently due from tenants in accordance with the terms of their respective leases. Individual leases are assessed for collectability and, upon the determination that the collection of rents is not probable, accrued rent and accounts receivable are charged off, and the charge off is reflected as an adjustment to rental revenue. Revenue from leases where collection is not probable is recorded on a cash basis until collectability is determined to be probable. We also assess whether operating lease receivables, at the portfolio level, are appropriately valued based upon an analysis of balances outstanding, effects of tenant bankruptcies, historical levels of bad debt and current economic trends. Additionally, because of the uncertainties related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, our assessment also takes into consideration the types of business conducted by tenants and current discussions with the tenants, as well as recent rent collection experience. Evaluating and estimating uncollectable lease payments and related receivables requires a significant amount of judgment by management and is based on the best information available to management at the time of evaluation. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Legal Contingencies

The Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business, which are generally covered by insurance. While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company believes the final outcome of current matters will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position or the results of operations. Upon determination that a loss is probable to occur, the estimated amount of the loss is recorded in the financial statements. Both the amount of the loss and the point at which its occurrence is considered probable can be difficult to determine.

Total revenue increased ~~12.7%~~5.8% in the ~~2021~~2022 Quarter compared to the ~~2020~~2021 Quarter, as described below.

Base Rent. The ~~$3.9~~$1.2 million increase in base rent in the ~~2021~~2022 Quarter compared to the ~~2020~~2021 Quarter is primarily attributable to ~~(a) the increase in occupancy at~~ The Waycroft ~~which opened in April 2020~~ ($~~3.3 million) and (b) increased occupancy at Ashbrook Marketplace, which opened in November 2019 ($0.4~~1.0 million).

~~Percentage Rent.~~ ~~The 236.6% increase in percentage rent in the 2021 Quarter compared to the 2020 Quarter is primarily attributable to increased sales reported by anchor tenants at multiple Shopping Centers.~~

Credit Losses on Operating Lease Receivables. Credit losses on operating lease receivables for the ~~2021~~2022 Quarter decreased ~~$2.4~~$1.2 million from the ~~2020~~2021 Quarter. The decrease is primarily due to net collections across the portfolio as tenant operations have improved due to restrictions related to COVID-19 being removed or lessened.

Same property revenue and same property operating income

Same property revenue and same property operating income are non-GAAP financial measures of performance and improve the comparability of these measures by excluding the results of properties which were not in operation for the entirety of the comparable reporting periods.

We define same property revenue as total revenue minus the revenue of properties not in operation for the entirety of the comparable reporting periods, and we define same property operating income as net income plus (a) interest expense, net and amortization of deferred debt costs, (b) depreciation and amortization of lease costs, (c) general and administrative expenses, and (d) change in fair value of derivatives, minus (e) gains on property dispositions and (f) the operating income of properties which were not in operation for the entirety of the comparable periods.

Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating same property revenue and same property operating income. Accordingly, our same property revenue and same property operating income may not be comparable to those of other REITs.

Same property revenue and same property operating income are used by management to evaluate and compare the operating performance of our properties, and to determine trends in earnings, because these measures are not affected by the cost of our funding, the impact of depreciation and amortization expenses, gains or losses from the acquisition and sale of operating real estate assets, general and administrative expenses or other gains and losses that relate to ownership of our properties. We believe the exclusion of these items from property revenue and property operating income is useful because the resulting measures capture the actual revenue generated and actual expenses incurred by operating our properties.

Same property revenue and same property operating income are measures of the operating performance of our properties but do not measure our performance as a whole. Such measures are therefore not substitutes for total revenue, net income or operating income as computed in accordance with GAAP.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities represents cash received primarily from rental revenue, plus other revenue, less property operating expenses, leasing costs, normal recurring general and administrative expenses and interest payments on debt outstanding.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities includes property acquisitions, developments, redevelopments, tenant improvements and other property capital expenditures. The ~~$11.4~~$2.1 million decrease in cash used in investing activities is primarily due to (a) ~~decreased~~increased development expenditures ($~~21.4~~8.5 million), partially offset by (b) ~~increased~~decreased acquisitions of real estate investments ($~~9.0~~8.4 million) and (c) ~~increased~~decreased additions to real estate investments throughout the portfolio ($~~0.9~~2.1 million).

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities represents (a) cash received from loan proceeds and issuance of common stock, preferred stock and limited partnership units minus (b) cash used to repay and curtail loans, redeem preferred stock and pay dividends and distributions to holders of common stock, preferred stock and limited partnership units. See note 5 to the consolidated financial statements for a discussion of financing activity.

Liquidity Requirements

Short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of normal recurring operating expenses and capital expenditures, debt service requirements (including debt service relating to additional and replacement debt), distributions to common and preferred stockholders, distributions to unit holders and amounts required for expansion and renovation of the Current Portfolio Properties and selective acquisition and development of additional properties. In order to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, the Company must distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of its “real estate investment trust taxable income,” as defined in the Code. The Company expects to meet these short-term liquidity requirements (other than amounts required for additional property acquisitions and developments) through cash provided from operations, available cash and its existing line of credit.

The Company is currently developing Phase I of Twinbrook Quarter, a project that includes an 80,000 square foot Wegmans, approximately 25,000 square feet of small shop space, and 450 apartments, which are currently under construction. Located in Rockville, Maryland, Phase I also includes a planned 230,000 square foot office building that is not under construction at this time. In November 2021, the Company closed on a $145.0 million construction-to-permanent loan, the proceeds of which will be used to partially finance the residential and retail portions of Phase I. In connection with the development of the residential and retail portions of Phase I, we must also invest in infrastructure and other items that will support both Phase I and other portions of the development of Twinbrook Quarter. The total cost of the project is expected to be approximately $331.5 million, of which $271.4 million is related to the development of the residential and retail portions of Phase I and $60.1 million is related to infrastructure and other items. Demolition of the existing improvements within Phase I has been completed and excavation of the site is ongoing. Below grade foundation work has begun and will continue during 2022. Initial delivery of Phase I is anticipated in late 2024. The Company has completed development plans for Hampden House, a project that includes up to 366 apartment units and 10,100 square feet of retail space. The total cost of the project is expected to be approximately $246.4 million. On February 23, 2022, the Company closed on a $133.0 million construction-to-permanent loan, the proceeds of which will be used to partially finance the project. Demolition of the existing structure is ongoing. The Company has entered into a contract with a general contractor and construction is expected to be completed during 2025. The Company may also redevelop certain of the Current Portfolio Properties and may develop additional freestanding outparcels or expansions within certain of the Shopping Centers.

Long-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of obligations under our long-term debt and dividends paid to our preferred shareholders. The Company anticipates that long-term liquidity requirements will also include amounts required for property acquisitions and developments. The Company is in the early stages of the development of Phase I of the Twinbrook Quarter, a project that includes an 80,000 square foot Wegmans, adjacent small shop space, 450 apartments and a 230,000 square foot office building in Rockville, Maryland. The Company is in the process of evaluating financing options for the project. Costs incurred are currently funded through working capital, including the Company's existing line of credit. The Company may also redevelop certain of the Current Portfolio Properties and may develop additional freestanding outparcels or expansions within certain of the Shopping Centers.

Acquisition and development of properties are undertaken only after careful analysis and review, and management’s determination that such properties are expected to provide long-term earnings and cash flow growth. During the coming year, developments, expansions or acquisitions (if any) are expected to be funded with available cash, bank borrowings from the Company’s credit line, construction and permanent financing, proceeds from the operation of the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan or other external debt or equity capital resources available to the Company. Any future borrowings may be at the Saul Centers, Operating Partnership or Subsidiary Partnership level, and securities offerings may include (subject to certain limitations) the issuance of additional limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership which can be converted into

shares of Saul Centers common stock. The availability and terms of any such financing will depend upon market and other conditions.

Management believes that the Company’s capital resources, which at ~~July 31, 2021~~April 30, 2022 included cash balances of approximately ~~$10.1~~$6.8 million and borrowing availability of approximately ~~$203.8~~$217.5 million on its ~~unsecured revolving credit facility,~~Credit Facility, provide sufficient liquidity and flexibility to meet the needs of the Company's operations as the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to evolve.

Dividend Reinvestments

The Company has a DRIP that allows its common stockholders and holders of limited partnership interests an opportunity to buy additional shares of common stock by reinvesting all or a portion of their dividends or distributions. The DRIP provides for investing in newly issued shares of common stock at a 3% discount from market price without payment of any brokerage commissions, service charges or other expenses. All expenses of the DRIP are paid by the Company. The Company issued ~~160,980~~60,495 and ~~93,590~~94,231 shares under the DRIP at a weighted average discounted price of ~~$34.63~~$47.66 and ~~$46.70~~$29.50 per share, during the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2022 and 2021, ~~and 2020,~~ respectively. The Company issued ~~33,471~~13,704 and ~~15,101~~19,493 limited partnership units under the DRIP at a weighted average price of ~~$35.05~~$48.16 and ~~$49.40~~$29.83 per unit during the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2022 and 2021, ~~and 2020,~~ respectively. The Company also credited ~~3,494~~1,366 and ~~3,015~~2,037 shares to directors pursuant to the reinvestment of dividends specified by the Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan at a weighted average discounted price of ~~$34.66~~$47.66 and ~~$38.71~~$29.50 per share, during the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2022 and 2021, ~~and 2020,~~ respectively.

Capital Strategy and Financing Activity

As a general policy, the Company intends to maintain a ratio of its total debt to total asset value of 50% or less and to actively manage the Company’s leverage and debt expense on an ongoing basis in order to maintain prudent coverage of fixed charges. Asset value is the aggregate fair market value of the Current Portfolio Properties and any subsequently acquired properties as reasonably determined by management by reference to the properties’ aggregate cash flow. Given the Company’s current debt level, it is management’s belief that the ratio of the Company’s debt to total asset value was below 50% as of ~~June 30, 2021.~~March 31, 2022.

The organizational documents of the Company do not limit the absolute amount or percentage of indebtedness that it may incur. The Board of Directors may, from time to time, reevaluate the Company’s debt/capitalization strategy in light of current economic conditions, relative costs of capital, market values of the Company’s property portfolio, opportunities for acquisition, development or expansion, and such other factors as the Board of Directors then deems relevant. The Board of Directors may modify the Company’s debt/capitalization policy based on such a reevaluation without shareholder approval and consequently, may increase or decrease the Company’s debt to total asset ratio above or below 50% or may waive the policy for certain periods of time. The Company selectively continues to refinance or renegotiate the terms of its outstanding debt in order to achieve longer maturities, and obtain generally more favorable loan terms, whenever management determines the financing environment is favorable.

At ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, the Company had a ~~$400.0~~$525.0 million ~~credit facility~~Credit Facility comprised of a ~~$325.0~~$425.0 million revolving credit facility and a ~~$75.0~~$100.0 million term loan. The revolving credit facility matures on August 29, 2025, which may be extended by the Company for one additional year, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. The term loan matures on February 26, 2027, and may not be extended. Interest accrues at a rate of LIBOR plus an applicable spread which is determined by certain leverage tests. As of ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, the applicable spread for borrowings was ~~140~~135 basis points ~~under~~related to the revolving credit facility and ~~135~~130 basis points ~~under~~related to the term loan. Saul Centers and certain consolidated subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership have guaranteed the payment obligations of the Operating Partnership under the ~~credit facility.~~Credit Facility. Letters of credit may be issued under the ~~revolving credit facility.~~Credit Facility. As of ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, based on the value of the Company’s unencumbered properties, approximately ~~$215.8~~$233.5 million was available under the ~~revolving credit facility, $109.0~~Credit Facility, $238.0 million was outstanding and approximately $185,000 was committed for letters of credit.

The facility requires the Company and its subsidiaries to maintain compliance with certain financial covenants. The material covenants require the Company, on a consolidated basis, to:

•limit the amount of debt as a percentage of gross asset value, as defined in the loan agreement, to less than 60% (leverage ratio);

•limit the amount of debt so that interest coverage will exceed 2.0x on a trailing four-quarter basis (interest expense coverage); and

•limit the amount of debt so that interest, scheduled principal amortization and preferred dividend coverage exceeds 1.4x on a trailing four-quarter basis (fixed charge coverage).

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on the Company’s financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Funds From Operations

Funds From Operations (FFO)1 available to common stockholders and noncontrolling interests for the ~~2021 Period,~~2022 Quarter, totaled ~~$48.7~~$27.0 million, an increase of ~~7.5%~~18.8% compared to the ~~2020 Period.~~2021 Quarter. FFO available to common stockholders and noncontrolling interests increased primarily due to (a) lower credit losses on operating lease receivables and corresponding reserves (collectively, ~~$2.5~~$1.2 million), (b) ~~increased occupancy~~higher capitalized interest ($1.1 million), primarily due to the Twinbrook Quarter development project, (c) higher base rent at The Waycroft ~~which opened in April 2020~~ ($~~2.0 million) and (c) increased occupancy at Ashbrook Marketplace, which opened in November 2019 ($0.9~~1.0 million), ~~partially offset by~~ (d) ~~lower~~higher base rent, ~~in the Mixed-Use Portfolio,~~ exclusive of The Waycroft ($~~2.4~~0.2 million), (e) higher lease termination fees ($0.2 million) and (f) higher parking income, net of expenses ($0.2 million).

1 The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT) developed FFO as a relative non-GAAP financial measure of performance of an equity REIT in order to recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the basis determined under GAAP. FFO is defined by NAREIT as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and excluding impairment charges on real estate assets and gains or losses from real estate dispositions. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs, which is disclosed in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the applicable periods. There are no material legal or functional restrictions on the use of FFO. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income, its most directly comparable GAAP measure, as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance, or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Management considers FFO a meaningful supplemental measure of operating performance because it primarily excludes the assumption that the value of the real estate assets diminishes predictably over time (i.e. depreciation), which is contrary to what the Company believes occurs with its assets, and because industry analysts have accepted it as a performance measure. FFO may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other REITs.

Acquisitions and Redevelopments

Management anticipates that during the coming year, the Company will complete the remaining retail spaces at The Waycroft. The Company may redevelop certain of the Current Portfolio Properties and may develop additional freestanding outparcels or expansions within certain of the Shopping Centers. Acquisition and development of properties are undertaken only after careful analysis and review, and management’s determination that such properties are expected to provide long-term earnings and cash flow growth. During the coming year, any developments, expansions or acquisitions are expected to be funded with bank borrowings from the Company’s credit line, construction financing, proceeds from the operation of the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan or other external capital resources available to the Company.

The Company has been selectively involved in acquisition, development, redevelopment and renovation activities. It continues to evaluate the acquisition of land parcels for retail and mixed-use development and acquisitions of operating properties for opportunities to enhance operating income and cash flow growth. The Company also continues to analyze redevelopment, renovation and expansion opportunities within the portfolio.

The following table shows selected data for leases executed in the indicated periods. The information is based on executed leases without adjustment for the timing of occupancy, tenant defaults, or landlord concessions. The base rent for an expiring lease is the annualized contractual base rent, on a cash basis, as of the expiration date of the lease. The base rent for a new or renewed lease is the annualized contractual base rent, on a cash basis, as of the expected rent commencement date. Because tenants that execute leases may not ultimately take possession of their space or pay all of their contractual rent, the changes presented in the table provide information only about trends in market rental rates. The actual changes in rental income received by the Company may be different.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company is exposed to certain financial market risks, the most predominant being fluctuations in interest rates. Interest rate fluctuations are monitored by management as an integral part of the Company’s overall risk management program, which recognizes the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to reduce the potentially adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations.

The Company is exposed to interest rate fluctuations which will affect the amount of interest expense of its variable rate debt and the fair value of its fixed rate debt. As of ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, the Company had variable rate indebtedness totaling ~~$184.0~~$238.0 million. If the interest rates on the Company’s variable rate debt instruments outstanding at ~~June 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022 had been one percentage point higher, our annual interest expense relating to these debt instruments would have increased by ~~$1.8~~$2.4 million based on those balances. As of ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, the Company had fixed-rate indebtedness totaling ~~$957.1~~$912.6 million with a weighted average interest rate of ~~4.93%~~4.91%. If interest rates on the Company’s fixed-rate debt instruments at ~~June 30, 2021~~March 31, 2022 had been one percentage point higher, the fair value of those debt instruments on that date would have been approximately ~~$50.1~~$48.2 million less than the carrying value.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, its Senior Vice President-Chief Financial Officer, and its Senior Vice President-Chief Accounting Officer and Treasurer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based closely on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

The Company carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, its Senior Vice President-Chief Financial Officer, and its Senior Vice President-Chief Accounting Officer and Treasurer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of ~~June 30, 2021.~~March 31, 2022. Based on the foregoing, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, its Senior Vice President-Chief Financial Officer and its Senior Vice President-Chief Accounting Officer and Treasurer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of ~~June 30, 2021.~~March 31, 2022.

During the quarter ended ~~June 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

~~Except as set forth below, the~~The Company has no material updates to the risk factors presented in Item 1A. Risk Factors in the ~~2020~~2021 Annual Report of the Company on Form 10-K.

The current outbreak of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”), or the future outbreak or pandemic of any other highly infectious or contagious diseases, could have a material and adverse effect on or cause disruption to our ~~business or financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and the market value and trading price of our securities~~.

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic, and on March 13, 2020, the United States declared a national emergency with respect to COVID-19. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic is negatively affecting almost every industry directly or indirectly. Many of our tenants have announced mandated or temporary closures of their operations and/or have requested adjustments to their lease terms during this pandemic. Experts predict that the COVID-19 pandemic will trigger a period of global economic slowdown or a global recession. COVID-19 (or a future pandemic) could have a material and adverse effect on or cause disruption to our business or financial condition, results from operations, cash flows and the market value and trading price of our securities due to, among other factors:

•~~a complete or partial closure of, or other operational issues at, our properties as a result of government or tenant action;~~

•~~the declines in or instability of the economy or financial markets may result in a recession or negatively impact consumer discretionary spending, which could adversely affect retailers and consumers;~~

•the reduction of economic activity severely impacts our tenants' business operations, financial condition and liquidity and may cause one or more of our tenants to be unable to meet their obligations to us in full, or at all, to default on their lease, or to otherwise seek modifications of such obligations;

•inability to access debt and equity capital on favorable terms, if at all, and a severe disruption and instability in the global financial markets or deteriorations in credit and financing conditions may affect our access to capital necessary to fund business operations, pursue acquisition and development opportunities, refinance existing debt, reduce our ability to make cash distributions to our stockholders and increase our future interest expense;

•~~a general decline in business activity and demand for real estate transactions could adversely affect our ability to successfully execute investment strategies or expand our property portfolio;~~

•~~a significant reduction in our cash flows could impact our ability to continue paying cash dividends to our common and preferred stockholders at expected levels or at all;~~

•the financial impact of COVID-19 could negatively affect our future compliance with financial and other covenants of our credit facility and other debt instruments, and the failure to comply with such covenants could result in a default that accelerates the payment of such indebtedness;

•the continued service and availability of personnel, including our executive officers and Board of Directors, and our ability to recruit, attract and retain skilled personnel, to the extent our management, Board of Directors or personnel are impacted in significant numbers by the outbreak of pandemic or epidemic disease and are not available or allowed to conduct work, could negatively impact our business and operating results; and

•~~our ability to ensure business continuity in the event our continuity of operations plan is not effective or is improperly implemented or deployed during a disruption.~~

The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our operations and those of our tenants will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of the outbreak, the actions taken to contain the outbreak or mitigate its impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the outbreak and containment measures, among others. For example, as of June 30, 2021, approximately 20% of base rent is generated from tenants in lines of trade that have been impacted by mandated temporary closures or other social-distancing guidelines issued by federal, state and local governments including:

•~~beauty services and dry cleaners (6%);~~

•~~apparel and footwear (4%);~~

•~~specialty retail (4%);~~

•~~full-service and limited-service restaurants (3%);~~

•~~health and fitness (2%); and~~

•~~other (1%).~~

~~A prolonged imposition of, or in some cases a return to,~~ ~~mandated temporary closures or other social-distancing guidelines~~ may adversely impact the ability of these tenants to generate sufficient revenues, and may cause tenants to request additional rent deferrals, and in limited cases, default on their leases, or result in the bankruptcy or insolvency of tenants, which would diminish our ability to receive rental revenue that is owed under their leases. The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact of COVID-19. Nevertheless, COVID-19 presents material uncertainty and risk with respect to our performance, business or financial condition, results from operations and cash flows.
