EXPLANATORY NOTE
This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2016March 31, 2017 of Regency Centers Corporation and Regency Centers, L.P. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to “Regency Centers Corporation” or the “Parent Company” mean Regency Centers Corporation and its controlled subsidiaries; and references to “Regency Centers, L.P.” or the “Operating Partnership” mean Regency Centers, L.P. and its controlled subsidiaries. The term “the Company”,"Regency Centers" or “Regency” means the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, collectively.
The Parent Company is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) and the general partner of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership's capital includes general and limited common Partnership Units (“Units”). As of September 30, 2016March 31, 2017, the Parent Company owned all of the Preferred Units of the Operating Partnership and approximately 99.9% of the Units in the Operating Partnership and thePartnership. The remaining limited Units are owned by investors. The Parent Company owns all of the Series 6 and 7 Preferred Units of the Operating Partnership. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company has exclusive control of the Operating Partnership's day-to-day management.
The Company believes combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership into this single report provides the following benefits:
 
Enhances investors' understanding of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;  

Eliminates duplicative disclosure and provides a more streamlined and readable presentation; and  

Creates time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports. 
Management operates the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership as one business. The management of the Parent Company consists of the same individuals as the management of the Operating Partnership. These individuals are officers of the Parent Company and employees of the Operating Partnership.
The Company believes it is important to understand the fewkey differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership in the context of how the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership operate as a consolidated company. The Parent Company is a REIT, whose only material asset is its ownership of partnership interests of the Operating Partnership. As a result, the Parent Company does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, issuing public equity from time to time and guaranteeing certain debt of the Operating Partnership. TheExcept for the $500 million of unsecured public and private placement debt assumed with the Equity One merger on March 1, 2017, the Parent Company does not holdhave any other indebtedness, but guarantees all of the unsecured public debt of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership is also the co-issuer and guarantees the debt of the Parent Company. The Operating Partnership holds all the assets of the Company and retains the ownership interests in the Company's joint ventures. Except for net proceeds from public equity issuances by the Parent Company, which are contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for partnership units, the Operating Partnership generates all remaining capital required by the Company's business. These sources include the Operating Partnership's operations, its direct or indirect incurrence of indebtedness, and the issuance of partnership units.
Stockholders' equity, partners' capital, and noncontrolling interests are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of the Parent Company and those of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership's capital includes general and limited common Partnership Units, and Series 6 and 7 Preferred Units owned by the Parent Company. The limited partners' units in the Operating Partnership owned by third parties are accounted for in partners' capital in the Operating Partnership's financial statements and outside of stockholders' equity in noncontrolling interests in the Parent Company's financial statements. The Series 6 and 7 Preferred Units owned by the Parent Company are eliminated in consolidation in the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Parent Company and are classified as preferred units of the general partner in the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Operating Partnership.
In order to highlight the differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, there are sections in this report that separately discuss the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, including separate financial statements, controls and procedures sections, and separate Exhibit 31 and 32 certifications. In the sections that combine disclosure for the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, this report refers to actions or holdings as being actions or holdings of the Company. 

As general partner with control of the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting purposes, and the Parent Company does not have assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership. Therefore, while stockholders' equity and partners' capital differ as discussed above, the assets and liabilities of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership are the same on their respective financial statements.

1.Organization and Principles of Consolidation
General
Regency Centers Corporation (the “Parent Company”) began its operations as a Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) in 1993 and is the general partner of Regency Centers, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”). The Parent Company engages in the ownership, management, leasing, acquisition, and development of retail shopping centers through the Operating Partnership, andPartnership. The Parent Company has no other assets or liabilities other than through its investment in the Operating Partnership, and its only liabilities are the unsecured notes assumed from the Equity One merger, which are co-issued and guaranteed by the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company currently owns approximately 99.9%guarantees all of the outstanding common Partnership Unitsunsecured debt of the Operating Partnership.
On March 1, 2017, Regency completed its merger with Equity One, Inc., whereby Equity One merged with and into Regency, with Regency continuing as the surviving public company. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each Equity One stockholder received 0.45 of a newly issued share of Regency common stock for each share of Equity One common stock owned immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, resulting in the issuance of approximately 65.5 million shares of common stock to effect the merger.
As of September 30, 2016,March 31, 2017, the Parent Company, the Operating Partnership, and their controlled subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (the "Company” or “Regency”) owned 197313 retail shopping centers and held partial interests in an additional 110116 retail shopping centers through unconsolidated investments in real estate partnerships (also referred to as "joint ventures" or "investment partnerships").

The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. These adjustments are considered to be of a normal recurring nature.

Consolidation
The Company consolidates properties that are wholly owned or properties where it owns less than 100%, but which it controls. Control is determined using an evaluation based on accounting standards related to the consolidation of voting interest entities and variable interest entities ("VIEs"). For joint ventures that are determined to be a VIE, the Company consolidates the entity where it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary. Determination of the primary beneficiary is based on whether an entity has (1) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance, and (2) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company's determination of the primary beneficiary considers all relationships between it and the VIE, including management agreements and other contractual arrangements.
Ownership of the Operating Partnership
The Operating Partnership’s capital includes general and limited common Partnership Units. As of September 30, 2016,March 31, 2017, the Parent Company owned approximately 99.9% of the outstanding common Partnership Units of the Operating Partnership with the remaining limited Partnership Units held by third parties (“Exchangeable operating partnership units” or “EOP units”). The Parent Company serves as general partner of the Operating Partnership. The EOP unit holders have limited rights over the Operating Partnership such that they do not have characteristicsthe power to direct the activities of a controlling financial interest.the Operating Partnership. As such, the Operating Partnership is considered a variable interest entity, and the Parent Company, which consolidates it, is the primary beneficiary which consolidates it.beneficiary. The Parent Company’s only investment is the Operating Partnership. Net income and distributions of the Operating Partnership are allocable to the general and limited common Partnership Units in accordance with their ownership percentages.
Segment Reporting 

The Company's business is investing in retail shopping centers through direct ownership or through joint ventures. The Company actively manages its portfolio of retail shopping centers and may from time to time make decisions to sell lower performing properties or developments not meeting its long-term investment

objectives. The proceeds from sales are reinvested into higher quality retail shopping centers, through acquisitions or new developments, which management believes will generate sustainable revenue growth and attractive returns. It is management's intent that all retail shopping centers will be owned or developed for investment purposes. The Company's revenues and net income are generated from the operation of its investment portfolio. The Company also earns fees for services provided to manage and lease retail shopping centers owned through joint ventures. 

The Company's portfolio is located throughout the United States. Management does not distinguish or group its operations on a geographical basis for purposes of allocating resources or capital. The Company reviews operating and financial data for each property on an individual basis; therefore, the Company defines an operating segment as its individual properties. The individual properties have been aggregated into one reportable segment based upon their similarities with regard to both the nature and economics of the centers, tenants and operational processes, as well as long-term average financial performance.

Real Estate Partnerships
Regency has an ownership interest in 121127 properties through partnerships, of which 11 are consolidated, withconsolidated. Our partners in these ventures include institutional investors, other real estate developers and/or operators, and individual parties who help Regency source transactions for development and investment ("the Partners",(the "Partners" or "limited partners"). Regency has a variable interest in these entities through its equity interests. As managing member, Regency maintains the books and records and typically provides leasing and property management to the partnerships. The partners’ level of involvement varies from protective decisions (debt, bankruptcy, selling primary asset(s) of business) to involvement in approving leases, operating budgets, and capital budgets.
Those partnerships for which the partners only have protective rights are considered VIEs under ASC 810, Consolidation. Regency is the primary beneficiary of these VIEs as Regency has power over these partnerships and they operate primarily for the benefit of Regency. As such, Regency consolidates these entities and reports the limited partners’ interest as noncontrolling interests.

The majority of the operations of the VIEs are funded with cash flows generated by the properties, or in the case of developments, with capital contributions or third party construction loans. Regency does not provide financial support to the VIEs.VIEs beyond the terms stipulated in the partnership operating agreements.
Those partnerships for which the partners are involved in the day to day decisions and do not have any other aspects that would cause them to be considered VIEs, are evaluated for consolidation using the voting interest model.

Those partnerships in which Regency has a controlling financial interest are consolidated and the limited partners’ ownership interest and share of net income is recorded as noncontrolling interest.

Those partnerships in which Regency does not have a controlling financial interest are accounted for using the equity method, and its ownership interest is recognized through single-line presentation as Investments in Real Estate Partnerships,real estate partnerships in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, and Equity in Incomeincome of Investmentsinvestments in Real Estate Partnerships,real estate partnerships in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The following table provides a brief description of recent accounting pronouncements and expected impact on our financial statements:
Standard Description Date of adoption Effect on the financial statements or other significant matters
Recently adopted:
ASU 2015-02,February 2015, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis
ASU 2015-02 affects reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. ASU 2015-02 modifies the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are VIEs or voting interest entities, eliminates the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership, and affects the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs.January 2016The adoption of this standard resulted in five additional investment partnerships being considered variable interest entities due to the limited partners' lack of substantive participation in the partnerships. This did not result in any impact to the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets, Statements of Operations, or Cash Flows, but did result in additional disclosures about its relationships with and exposure to variable interest entities.
ASU 2015-03, April 2015, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs

ASU 2015-03 simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs by requiring that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts.


January 2016
The adoption and implementation of this standard has resulted in the retrospective presentation of debt issuance costs associated with the Company's notes payable and term loans as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt instruments (previously, included in deferred costs in the consolidated balance sheets).
Unamortized debt issuance costs of $8.2 million has been reclassified to offset the related debt as of December 31, 2015.
ASU 2015-15, August 2015, Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements
ASU 2015-15 clarifies that debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements may be deferred and presented as an asset, amortized over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings.

January 2016The adoption of this standard resulted in debt issuance costs related to the Line of credit ("Line") to continue being presented as an asset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, previously within deferred costs, and now presented within other assets.

ASU 2014-15, August 2014, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
The standard requires management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide certain disclosures when it is probable that the entity will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.December 2016
The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have an impact on its Consolidated Balance Sheets, Statements of Operations, or Cash Flows but will result in more disclosure surrounding the Company's plans for addressing significant upcoming debt maturities.

      
ASU 2016-09, March 2016, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting
 This ASU affects entities that issue share-based payment awards to their employees. The ASU is designed to simplify several aspects of accounting for share-based payment award transactions including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, an option to recognize stock compensation forfeitures as they occur, and changes to classification on the statement of cash flows. January 2017 
The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have an impactresulted in the reclassification of income taxes withheld on its financial statements and related disclosures.share-based awards out of operating activities into financing activities on the Statement of Cash Flows. As retrospective application was required for this component of the ASU, $8.0 million was reclassified on the Statements of Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2016.

The standard amends the guidance to classify equity securities with readily-determinable fair values into different categories and requires equity securities to be measured at fair value with changes in the fair value recognized through net income. Equity investments accounted for under the equity method are not included in the scope of this amendment. Early adoption of this amendment is not permitted.

ASU 2017-01
January 2017, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business
The amendments in this update provide a screen to determine when an integrated set of assets and activities, collectively referred to as a "set", is not a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. This screen reduces the number of transactions that need to be further evaluated.

If the screen is not met, the amendments in this update (1) require that to be considered a business, a set must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create output and (2) remove the evaluation of whether a market participant could replace missing elements. The amendments provide a framework to assist entities in evaluating whether both an input and a substantive process are present. Early adoption is permitted.

January 2018
The Company is evaluating the amendments from this update, but expects it to change the treatment of individual operating properties from being considered a business to being considered an asset.

This change will result in acquisition costs being capitalized as part of the asset acquisition, whereas current treatment has them recognized in earnings in the period incurred.

Additional changes from the update are being evaluated to identify their impact to the Company's financial statements and related disclosures.

The standard amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets. It also makes targeted changes to lessor accounting, including a change to the treatment of initial direct leasing costs, which no longer considers fixed internal leasing salaries as capitalizable costs.

Early adoption of this standard is permitted to coincide with adoption of ASU 2014-09. The standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief.

This methodology includes estimating an “as-if vacant” fair value of the physical property, which includes land, building, and improvements and also determines the estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets and liabilities, considering the following categories: (i) value of in-place leases, and (ii) above and below-market value of in-place leases.
The provisional fair market value of the acquired operating properties is based on a valuation prepared by Regency with assistance of a third party valuation specialist. The third party uses stabilized NOI and market specific capitalization and discount rates as the primary inputs in determining the fair value of the real estate assets. Management reviews the inputs used by the third party specialist as well as the allocation of the purchase price to ensure reasonableness and that the procedures are performed in accordance with management's policy. Management and the third party valuation specialist have prepared their provisional fair value estimates for each of the operating

properties acquired, but are still in process of reviewing all of the underlying inputs and assumptions; therefore, the purchase price and its allocation are not yet complete as of the date of this filing. Once the purchase price and allocation are complete, an adjustment to the purchase price or allocation may occur. Additionally, any excess purchase price may result in the recognition of goodwill, the amount of which may be significant.

The allocation of the purchase price is based on management’s assessment, which may change in the future as more information becomes available. Subsequent adjustments made to the purchase price allocation upon completion of the Company's fair value assessment process will not exceed one year. The allocation of the purchase price described above requires a significant amount of judgment and represents management's best estimate of the fair value as of the acquisition date.

The Company amended its existing Term Loan, which increased the facility size by $100.0 million to $265.0 million, extended the maturity date to January 5, 2022 and reduced the applicable interest rate. The Term Loan now bears interest at LIBOR plus a ratings based margin of 0.95% per annum, subject to adjustment from time to time based on changes to the Company's corporate credit rating. At closing, the Company executed interest rate swaps for the full notional amount of the Term Loan, which fixed the interest rate at 2.0% through maturity.
In August, the Company redeemed the entirety of its $300 million of 5.875% senior unsecured notes due June 15, 2017 ("$300 million notes") funded from proceeds from an equity offering, as discussed in note 7.

During January 2017, the Company issued $300.0 million of 4.4% senior unsecured public notes due February 1, 2047, which priced at 99.110%. The Company used the net proceeds to redeem all of the outstanding shares of its $250 million 6.625% Series 6 preferred stock on February 16, 2017 and to pay down the balance of the Company's Line.
In connection with the merger with Equity One on March 1, 2017, the Company completed the following debt transactions:
During January 2017, issued $350.0 million of senior unsecured public notes with an interest rate of 3.6% maturing in 2027, which priced at 99.741%.

During March 2017, increased the size of its Line commitment to $1.0 billion with an accordion feature permitting the Company to request an additional increase in the facility of up to $500 million.
Completed a $300 million unsecured term loan that matures on December 2, 2020 with the option to prepay at par anytime prior to maturity without penalty. The interest rate on the term loan is equal to LIBOR plus a ratings based margin; however, the Company entered into interest rate swaps to fix the interest rate on the the entire $300 million with a weighted average interest rate of 1.824% (see note 5). The proceeds of the term loan were used to repay a $300 million Equity One term loan that came due as a result of the merger.
Assumed $300 million of senior unsecured public notes with an interest rate of 3.75% maturing in 2022.
Assumed $200 million of the senior unsecured private placement notes issued in two $100 million tranches with interest rates of 3.81% and 3.91%, respectively, maturing in 2026.
Assumed $226.3 million of fixed rate mortgage loans with interest rates ranging from 3.76% to 7.94%, and assumed a $27.8 million variable rate mortgage loan whose interest rate varies with LIBOR.

(2) Derivatives in an asset position are included within Other assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, while those in a liability position are included within Accounts payable and other liabilities.
(3) In 2014, the Company entered into $220 million of forward starting interest rate swaps to hedge the interest rate on new fixed rate ten year debt that the Company expected to issue in June 2017 for the specific purpose of repaying at maturity the $300 million notes. These interest rate swaps locked in a weighted average fixed rate of 3.48%, before the Company's credit spread. These swaps were settled during the during the third quarter of 2016, as further described below.
These derivative financial instruments are all interest rate swaps, which are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and, as of September 30, 2016,March 31, 2017, does not have any derivatives that are not designated as hedges. The Company has master netting agreements;

however, the Company does not have multiple derivatives subject to a single master netting agreement with the same counterparties. Therefore, none are offset in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges is recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI") and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings within Interest expense, in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Included in the reclassreclassification is $8.4 million which is related to previously settled swaps on the Company's ten year fixed rate unsecured loans.
Hedge Settlement

During the third quarter of 2016, the Company initiated and completed a $400.1 million equity offering, as further described in note 7, for the primary purpose of funding the early redemption of its $300 million notes.  The Company also used $40.6 million from the net offering proceeds to settle $220 million of forward starting swaps related to new debt previously expected to be issued in 2017 to repay the notes at maturity.  As a result of the equity offering, the Company believed that the issuance of new fixed rate debt within the remaining period of the forward starting swaps was probable not to occur.  Accordingly, the Company ceased hedge accounting and reclassified the $40.6 million paid to settle the forward starting swaps from Accumulated other comprehensive loss to earnings during the third quarter of 2016.

(a) Disclosure of Fair Value of Financial Instruments

All financial instruments of the Company are reflected in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets at amounts which, in management's estimation, reasonably approximate their fair values, except for the following:

 $278,495

The above fair values represent management's estimate of the amounts that would be received from selling those assets or that would be paid to transfer those liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants as of September 30, 2016March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2015.2016. These fair value measurements maximize the use of observable inputs. However, in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date, the fair value measurement reflects the Company's own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The Company develops its judgments based on the best information available at the measurement date, including expected cash flows, appropriatelyappropriate risk-adjusted discount rates, and available observable and unobservable inputs. Service providers involved in fair value measurements are evaluated for competency and qualifications on an ongoing basis. As considerable judgment is often necessary to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments, the fair values presented above are not necessarily indicative of amounts that will be realized upon disposition of the financial instruments.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments:

Notes Receivable

The fair value of the Company's Notes receivable is estimated by calculating the present value of future contractual cash flows discounted at interest rates available for notes of the same terms and maturities, adjusted for counter-party specific credit risk. The fair value of Notes receivable was determined primarily using Level 3 inputs of the fair value hierarchy, which considered counter-party credit risk and collateral risk of the underlying property securing the note receivable.

Notes Payable

The fair value of the Company's unsecured debt is estimated based on the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on the current rates offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities. The fair value of the unsecured debt was determined using Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of the Company's mortgage notes payable is estimated by discounting future cash flows of each instrument at rates that reflect the current market rates available to the Company for debt of the same terms and maturities. Fixed rate loans assumed in connection with real estate acquisitions are recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements at fair value at the time the property is acquired. The fair value of the mortgage notes payable was determined using Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy.

Unsecured Credit Facilities

The fair value of the Company's Unsecured credit facilities is estimated based on the interest rates currently offered to the Company by financial institutions. The fair value of the credit facilities was determined using Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy.

(b) Fair Value Measurements

The following financial instruments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Trading Securities Held in Trust

The Company has investments in marketable securities, which are assets of the non-qualified deferred compensation plan ("NQDCP"), that are classified as trading securities held in trust on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the Trading securities held in trust was determined using quoted prices in active markets, which are considered Level 1 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. Changes in the value of trading securities are recorded within net investment (income) loss from deferred compensation plan in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Available-for-Sale Securities

Available-for-sale securities consist of investments in certificates of deposit and corporate bonds, and are recorded at fair value using matrix pricing methods to estimate fair value, which are considered Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. Unrealized gains or losses on these securities are recognized through Other comprehensive income.

Interest Rate Derivatives

The fair value of the Company's interest rate derivatives is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty's nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements.
Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, 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 has assessed 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 interest rate swaps. As a result, the Company determined that its interest rate swaps valuation in its entirety is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

11.    Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

The Company is involved in litigation on a number of matters and is subject to certain claims, which arise in the normal course of business, none of which, in the opinion of management, is expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. Legal fees are expensed as incurred.

After the announcement of the merger agreement on November 14, 2016, a putative class action was filed on behalf of a purported stockholder in the Circuit Court for Duval County, Florida, under the following caption: Robert Garfield on Behalf of Himself and All Others Similarly Situated vs. Regency Centers Corporation, Martin E. Stein, Jr., John C. Schweitzer, Raymond L. Bank, Bryce Blair, C. Ronald Blankenship, J. Dix Druce, Jr., Mary Lou Fiala, David P. O'Connor, and Thomas G. Wattles, No. 16-2017-CA-000688-XXXX-MA, filed February 3, 2017.

The class action alleged, among other matters, that the definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus filed by Regency and Equity One with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 24, 2017 (the “Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus”) omitted certain material information in connection with the Merger. The complainant sought various remedies, including injunctive relief to prevent the consummation of the Merger unless certain allegedly material information was disclosed and sought compensatory and rescissory damages in the event the Merger was consummated without such disclosures.

On February 17, 2017, the defendants entered into a stipulation of settlement with respect to the class action, pursuant to which the parties agreed, among other things, that Regency would make certain supplemental disclosures. The supplemental disclosures were made by Regency in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Regency with the SEC on February 17, 2017. The supplemental disclosures should be read in conjunction with the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus, which should be read in its entirety.

Environmental

The Company is also subject to numerous environmental laws and regulations as they apply to real estate pertaining to chemicals used by the dry cleaning industry, the existence of asbestos in older shopping centers, and underground petroleum storage tanks. The Company believes that the ultimate disposition of currently known environmental matters will not have a material effect on its financial position, liquidity, or operations. The Company can give no assurance that existing environmental studies with respect to the shopping centers have revealed all potential environmental contaminants or liabilities, that any previous owner, occupant or tenant did not create any material environmental condition not known to it, that the current environmental condition of the shopping centers will not be affected by tenants and occupants, by the condition of nearby properties, or by unrelated third parties, or that changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations or their interpretation will not result in additional environmental liability to the Company.

Letters of Credit

The Company has the right to issue letters of credit under the Line up to an amount not to exceed $50.0$50.0 million,, which reduces the credit availability under the Line. These letters of credit are primarily issued as collateral on behalf of its captive insurance program and to facilitate the construction of development projects. As of September 30, 2016March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2015,2016, the Company had $5.8$7.3 million and $5.9$5.8 million, respectively, in letters of credit outstanding.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements    

In addition to historical information, the following information contains forward-looking statements as defined under federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements include statements about anticipated changes in our revenues, the size of our development and redevelopment program, earnings per share and unit, returns and portfolio value, and expectations about our liquidity. These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the real estate industry and markets in which the Company operates, and management's beliefs and assumptions. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, our ability to successfully integrate the business of Equity One successfully and realize the anticipated synergies and related benefits of our merger with Equity One, changes in national and local economic conditions, financial difficulties of tenants, competitive market conditions, including timing and pricing of acquisitions and sales of properties and building pads ("out-parcels"), changes in leasing activity and market rents, timing of development starts, meeting development schedules, natural disasters in geographic areas in which we operate, cost of environmental remediation, our inability to exercise voting control over the co-investment partnerships through which we own many of our properties, and technology disruptions. For additional information, see “Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20152016. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto of Regency Centers Corporation and Regency Centers, L.P. appearing elsewhere herein. We do not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to such forward-looking statements to reflect events or uncertainties after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of uncertain events.

Defined Terms

We use certain non-GAAP performance measures, in addition to the requiredcertain performance metrics determined under GAAP presentations,, as we believe these measures improve the understanding of the Company's operational results. We manage our entire real estate portfolio without regard to ownership structure, although certain decisions impacting properties owned through partnerships require partner approval. Therefore, we believe presenting our pro-rata share of certain operating metrics regardless of ownership structure, along with other non-GAAP measures, makes comparisons of other REITs' operating results to the Company's more meaningful. We continually evaluate the usefulness, relevance, limitations, and calculation of our reported non-GAAP performance measures to determine how best to provide relevant information to the public, and thus such reported measures could change.

The following terms, as defined, are commonly used by management and the investing public to understand and evaluate our operational results:

Same Property information is provided for retail operating properties that were owned and operated for the entirety of both calendar year periods being compared and excludes Non-Same Properties and Properties in Development.

A Non-Same Property is a property acquired, sold, or a development completion during either calendar year period being compared. CorporateNon-retail properties and corporate activities, including theactivities of our captive insurance company, are part of Non-Same Property.

Property In Development is a property ownedincludes land or properties in various stages of development and intended to be developed,redevelopment including partially operating properties acquired specifically for redevelopment and excluding land held for future development.active pre-development activities.

Development Completion is a project in development that is deemed complete upon the earliest of: (i) 90% of total estimated net development costs have been incurred and percent leased equals or exceeds 95%, or (ii) the project features at least two years of anchor operations, or (iii) three years have passed since the start of construction. Once deemed complete, the property is termed an Operating Property.a retail operating property.

Pro-Rata information includes 100% of our consolidated properties plus our economic share (based on our ownership interestinterest) in our unconsolidated real estate investment partnerships.

The pro-rata information is prepared on a basis consistent with the comparable consolidated amounts and is intended to more accurately reflect our proportionate economic interest in the operating results of properties in our portfolio. We do not control the unconsolidated investment partnerships, and the pro-rata presentations of the assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses do not represent our legal claim to such items. The partners are entitled to profit or loss allocations and distributions of cash flows according to the operating agreements, which provide for such allocations according to their invested capital. Our share of invested capital establishes the ownership interests we use to prepare our pro-rata share.

3134





to prepare our pro-rata share.
The presentation of pro-rata information has limitations which include, but are not limited to, the following:
The amounts shown on the individual line items were derived by applying our overall economic ownership interest percentage determined when applying the equity method of accounting or allocating noncontrolling interests, and do not necessarily represent our legal claim to the assets and liabilities, or the revenues and expenses; and

Other companies in our industry may calculate their pro-rata interest differently, limiting the usefulness as a comparative measure.

Because of these limitations, the pro-rata financial information should not be considered independently or as a substitute for our financial statements as reported under GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP financial statements, using the pro-rata information as a supplement.
CoreAdjusted EBITDAis defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, real estate gains and losses, and development and acquisition pursuit costs.costs, straight line rental income, and above and below market rent amortization.

Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is defined as CoreAdjusted EBITDA divided by the sum of the gross interest and scheduled mortgage principal paid to our lenders plus dividends paid to our preferred stockholders.

Net Operating Income ("NOI") is the sum of minimum rent, percentage rent and recoveries from tenants and other income, less operating and maintenance, real estate taxes, and provision for doubtful accounts. NOI excludes straight-line rental income and expense, above and below market rent amortization and other fees. The Company also provides disclosure of NOI excluding termination fees, which excludes both termination fee income and expenses.

NAREIT Funds from Operations ("NAREIT FFO") is a commonly used measure of REIT performance, which the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") defines as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains and losses from sales of depreciable property, net of tax, excluding operating real estate impairments, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We compute NAREIT FFO for all periods presented in accordance with NAREIT's definition. Many companies use different depreciable lives and methods, and real estate values historically fluctuate with market conditions. Since NAREIT FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and gains and losses from depreciable property dispositions, and impairments, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, acquisition and development activities, and financing costs. This provides a perspective of our financial performance not immediately apparent from net income determined in accordance with GAAP. Thus, NAREIT FFO is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure of our operating performance, which does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP; and, therefore, should not be considered a substitute measure of cash flows from operations. The Company provides a reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Common Stockholders to NAREIT FFO.

Core FFO is an additional performance measure used by Regency as the computation of NAREIT FFO includes certain non-cash and non-comparable items that affect the Company's period-over-period performance.  Core FFO excludes from NAREIT FFO, but is not limited to: (a) transaction related gains, income or expense; (b) impairments on land; (c) gains or losses from the early extinguishment of debt; and (d) other non-core amounts as they occur.  The Company provides a reconciliation of NAREIT FFO to Core FFO.

Bankruptcies and Credit Concerns

Our management team devotes significant time to researching and monitoring retail trends, consumer preferences, customer shopping behaviors, changes in retail delivery methods, and changing demographics in order to anticipate the challenges and opportunities impacting the retail industry. Certain segments of the retail industry face reductions in sales and increased bankruptcies amid stronger competition from e-commerce. A greater shift to e-commerce, large-scale retail business failures, unemployment, and tight credit markets could negatively impact consumer spending and have an adverse effect on our results of operations. We pro-actively seek to mitigate these potential impacts through tenant diversification, re-tenanting weaker tenants with stronger operators, anchoring our centers with market leading grocery stores that drive foot traffic, and maintaining a presence in affluent suburbs and dense infill trade areas. As a result of our research and findings, we may reduce new leasing, suspend leasing, or curtail allowances for construction of leasehold improvements within a certain retail category or to a specific retailer in order to reduce our risk from bankruptcies and store closings.

We closely monitor the operating performance and rent collections of tenants in our shopping centers as well as those retailers experiencing significant changes to their business models as a result of reduced customer traffic in their stores and increased competition from e-commerce sales.  Retailers who are unable to withstand these and other business pressures may approach us to modify their lease agreement or file for bankruptcy. Although base rent is supported by long-term lease contracts, tenants who file bankruptcy maygenerally have the legal right to reject any or all of their leases and close related stores. In the event that a tenant with a significant number of leases in our shopping centers files bankruptcy and cancels its leases, we could experience a significant reduction in our revenues. We monitor the operating performance and rent collections of all tenants in our shopping centers, especially those tenants with operating retail formats that are experiencing significant changes in competition, business practice, and store closings in other locations. However,Currently, no tenant represents more than 5% of our annual base rent on a pro-rata basis.

Our management team devotes significant time to monitoring consumer preferences, shopping behaviors, and demographics to anticipate both challenges and opportunities in the changing retail industry that may affect our tenants. As a result of our findings, we may reduce new leasing, suspend leasing, or curtail the allowance for the construction of leasehold improvements within a certain retail category or to a specific retailer.

During March 2016, Sports Authority filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, at which time we had three leases in our portfolio. One of those leases has been assumed by another retailer and the remaining two have been rejected and the stores closed. Those two rejected leases represented $2.1 million, or 0.4%, of total annualized base rent on a pro-rata basis. We are currently working to re-tenant these spaces.

During 2016, Sears Holdings announced that it planned to accelerate the closing of a number of unprofitable stores due to continued poor sales.stores. Sears continues to report significant declines in operating revenues and performance, and its ability to continue operating stores in our shopping centers is uncertain. We have five Sears or Kmart leases in our portfolio, which currently represent $3.1 million, or 0.6%, of total annualized base rent on a pro-rata basis. None of the announced store closures as of this filing, are within our shopping centers.centers at this time. However, we are currently working to opportunistically re-tenant the spaces as the lease terms permit.     



Of the current bankruptcies impacting our portfolio, none of the individual retailers exceed 0.1% of our annual base rent on a pro-rata basis.

The $28.6 million increase in our equity in income in investments in real estate partnerships is largely attributed to (i) an increase in our share of the gain on sales of real estate within our GRIR, Columbia I, Columbia II, and Other investments in real estate partnerships; (ii) interest expense savings within GRIR resulting from decreased debt balances and refinancing activity at lower interest rates; and (iii) and a decrease in depreciation expense within GRIR from fully depreciated land improvement assets.

Supplemental Earnings Information

We use certain non-GAAP performance measures, in addition to the requiredcertain performance metrics determined under GAAP, presentations, as we believe these measures improve the understanding of the Company's operationaloperating results. We manage our entire real estate portfolio without regard to ownership structure, although certain decisions impacting properties owned through partnerships require partner approval. Therefore, we believe presenting our pro-rata share of operating results regardless of ownership structure, along with other non-GAAP measures, makes comparisons of other REITs'may assist in comparing the Company's operating results to the Company's more meaningful.other REITs'. We continually evaluate the usefulness, relevance, limitations, and calculation of our reported non-GAAP performance measures to determine how best to provide relevant information to the public, and thus such reported measures could change.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

We utilizeuse cash flows generated from operating, investing, and financing activities to strengthen our balance sheet, and reduce risk, finance our development and redevelopment projects, fund our targeted investments,investment activities, and maintain financial flexibility. We continuously monitor the capital markets and evaluate our ability to issue new debt or equity to repay maturing debt or fund our capital commitments.

OurExcept for the $500 million of unsecured public and private placement debt assumed with the Equity One merger on March 1, 2017, our Parent Company has no capital commitments other than its guarantees of the commitments of our Operating Partnership. All remaining debt is held by our Operating Partnership or by our co-investment partnerships. The Operating Partnership is a co-issuer and guarantees the outstanding debt of our Parent Company. The Parent Company will from time to time access the capital markets for the purpose of issuing new equity and will simultaneously contribute all of the offering proceeds to the Operating Partnership in exchange for additional partnership units. All debt is held by our Operating Partnership or by our co-investment partnerships. Based upon our available sources of capital, our current credit ratings, and the number of high quality, unencumbered properties we own, we believe our available capital resources are sufficient to meet our expected capital needs.

We operate our business such that we expect net cash provided by operating activities will provide the necessary funds to pay our distributions to our common and preferred share and unit holders, which were $165.1$56.6 million and $152.0$53.9 million for the ninethree months ended September 30, March 31, 2017 and 2016, and 2015, respectively. Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $44.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 due primarily to transaction costs incurred with the merger.  We expect our future cash flows from operating activities to be sufficient to fund our distribution requirements. Our dividend distribution policy is set by our Board of Directors, who monitors our financial position. Our Board of Directors recently declared our common stock quarterly dividend of $0.50$0.53 per share, payable on November 30, 2016.May 31, 2017. Future dividends will be declared at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will be subject to capital requirements and availability. We plan to continue paying an aggregate amount of distributions to our stock and unit holders that, at a minimum, meet the requirements to continue qualifying as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes.

During the next twelve months, we estimate that we will require approximately $258.1$345.3 million of cash, including $127.4$269.8 million to complete in-process developments and redevelopments $117.3and $75.5 million to repay maturing debt, and $13.4 million to fund our pro-rata share of estimated capital contributions to our co-investment partnerships for repayment of debt. If we start new developments, or redevelop additional shopping centers, or commit to new acquisitions, our cash requirements will increase. If we refinance maturing debt, our cash requirements will decrease. To meet our cash requirements, we may utilize cash generated from operations, proceeds from the sale of real estate, available borrowings from our Line, and when the capital markets are favorable, proceeds from the sale of equity and the issuance of new long-term debt.

We endeavor to maintain a high percentage of unencumbered assets. At September 30, 2016, 83.0%March 31, 2017, 83.2% of our wholly-owned real estate assets were unencumbered. Such assets allow us to access the secured and unsecured debt markets and to maintain availability on the Line. Our annualized coverage ratio, including our pro-rata share of our partnerships, was 3.24.5 times and 2.73.2 times for the trailing four quarters ended September 30,March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, and 2015, respectively. We define our coverage ratio as earnings before interest, taxes, investment transaction profits net of deal costs, depreciation and amortization (“Core EBITDA”) divided by the sum of the gross interest and scheduled mortgage principal paid to our lenders plus dividends paid to our preferred stockholders.

49






Our Line, Term Loan,term loans, and unsecured loansnotes require that we remain in compliance with various covenants, which are described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.2016. The debt assumed and issued in conjunction with the Equity One merger contain covenants that are consistent with our existing debt covenants. We are in compliance with these covenants at September 30, 2016March 31, 2017 and expect to remain in compliance.

Significant changes in investing activities include:

We acquired threedid not acquire any operating properties, other than those included in the merger, during 2016 for $333.2 million2017 compared to $43.0$16.5 million for one operating property in 2015.the same period in 2016.

We issued 65.5 million common shares to the shareholders of Equity One valued at $4.5 billion in a stock for stock exchange and merged Equity One into the Company on March 1, 2017. As part of the merger, we paid $649.0 million, net of cash acquired, to repay Equity One credit facilities not assumed with the merger.

We invested $4.2$28.2 million lessmore in 20162017 than 2015the same period in 2016 on real estate development and capital improvements, as further detailed in a table below.

We received proceeds of $83.7$1.7 million from the sale of seventwo land parcels in 2017, compared to $32.3 million for three shopping centers and twelvefive land parcels in 2016, compared to $93.7 million for four shopping centersthe same period in 2015.2016.

We invested $13.1$1.7 million in our real estate partnerships during 20162017 to fund our share of redevelopment activity, compared to $2.4 million for our share of maturing mortgage debt and redevelopment activity, compared to $18.6 million during 2015.the same period in 2016.

Distributions from our unconsolidated real estate partnerships include return of capital from sales or financing proceeds. The $52.5$25.4 million received in 20162017 is primarily driven by financing proceeds from encumbering certain operating properties within one partnership. During the same period in 2016, we received $18.3 million from the sale of ninethree shopping centers within the partnerships. During 2015, we received $15.0 million, primarily attributable to $12.7 million of proceeds from the sale of one shopping center with a co-investment partner and $2.3 million of financing proceeds.

Acquisition of securities and proceeds from sale of securities pertain to equity and debt securities held by our captive insurance company and our deferred compensation plan. The majority of our investing activity during 2016 relates to reallocation of plan assets.

We plan to continue developing and redeveloping shopping centers for long-term investment. We deployed capital of $146.8$66.5 million for the development, redevelopment, and improvement of our real estate properties, comprised of the following:

During 20162017 we acquired one land parcel for a new development project.

Building and tenant improvements decreased during 2016 primarily related to timing of capital projects.

Redevelopment expenditures are slightly higher in 20162017 due to the timing, magnitude, and number of projects currently in process.process at existing centers and in process projects acquired from Equity One. We intend to continuously improve our portfolio of shopping centers through redevelopment which can include adjacent land acquisition, existing building expansion, new out-parcel building construction, and tenant improvement costs.  The size and magnitude of each redevelopment project varies with each redevelopment plan. 

Development expenditures are lowerhigher in 20162017 due to the progress towards completion of our development projects currently in process. At September 30, 2016March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2015,2016, we had fiveseven and sevensix development projects, respectively, that were either under construction or in lease up. See the tables below for more details about our development projects.

Interest is capitalized on our development and redevelopment projects and is based on cumulative actual development costs expended. We cease interest capitalization when the property is no longer being developed or is available for occupancy upon substantial completion of tenant improvements, but in no event would we capitalize interest on the project beyond 12 months after the anchor opens for business. Capitalized interest decreased in 2016 as compared to 2015 as our development or redevelopment projects neared substantial completion and we commenced fewer new projects.

We have a staff of employees who directly support our development and redevelopment program.programs. Internal compensation costs directly attributable to these activities are capitalized as part of each project. Changes in the level of future development and redevelopment activity could adversely impact results of operations by reducing the amount of internal costs for development and redevelopment projects that may be capitalized. A 10% reduction in development and redevelopment activity without a corresponding reduction in thedevelopment related compensation costs directly related to our development and redevelopment activities could result in an additional charge to net income of $1.4$1.6 million per year.

Significant financing activities during the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2017 and 2016 and 2015 include the following:

We raised $549.5$12.3 million during 2016 through equity issuances:
We issuedby issuing 182,787 shares of common stock through our ATM program at an average price of $68.85 per share resulting in net proceeds of $12.3 million,
We settled 1.85 million shares under our forward equity offering at an average price of $74.32 per share resulting in proceeds of $137.5 million, and
We issued 5.0 million shares of common stock at $79.78 per share resulting in net proceeds of $400.1 million.

During 2015, we issued 18,125 shares of common stock through our ATM program at an average price of $64.72$68.85 per share resulting in net proceeds of $946,000.

During 2016, our dividend payments increased as a result of the greater number of common shares outstanding and an increase in our dividend rate.

We received proceeds of $100.0 million, upon expanding our Term Loan during 2016 to partially fund the acquisition of Market Common Clarendon, as compared to $140.0 million borrowed on the Line and Term Loan in 2015 to partially fund the repayment of the $300 million notes.

We received $20.2 million of mortgage proceeds in 2016 upon the encumbrance of one operating property. During 2015, debt issuance includes $250.0 million of new fixed rate ten-year unsecured public debt.

During 2016, we used $359.3 million to repay debt, including:
$313.2 million for the early redemption of our $300 million notes, including a $13.2 million make-whole premium, and
$46.1 million for scheduled principal payments and three mortgage repayments.

During 2015, we used $430.4 million to repay debt, including:
$350.0 million to redeem our notes that matured in 2015, and
$80.4 million for scheduled principal payments and three mortgage repayments.

We paid $2.0 million in loan closing costs during 2016, primarily to amend the Term Loan, while we paid $6.0 million during 2015 for the new fixed rate unsecured public debt and the modification to our Line.

$12.3 million.

5452






We repurchased for cash a portion of the common stock related to stock based compensation to satisfy employee federal and state tax withholding requirements. The repurchases increased $10.3 million in 2017 due to the vesting of Equity One's stock based compensation program as a result of the merger.

We redeemed all of the issued and outstanding shares of $250.0 million 6.625% Series 6 cumulative redeemable preferred stock on February 16, 2017.

As a result of the common shares issued during 2016 and an increase in our quarterly dividend rate from $0.50 per share in 2016 to $0.51 per share in February 2017, our dividend payments increased $2.8 million.

We expanded our credit facilities by increasing our Line commitment to $1.0 billion and closing on a $300.0 million term loan. The combined funding from the term loan and borrowings on the Line, net of repayments provided $380.0 million to repay a $300.0 million Equity One term loan that became due upon merger and to pay merger related transaction costs.

During January 2017, we issued $650.0 million of senior unsecured public notes in two tranches of which $300.0 million is due in 2047 and $350.0 million is due in 2027. The proceeds of $648.0 million were used to redeem all of our $250.0 million Series 6 preferred stock and to repay Equity One's $250.0 million term loan and outstanding Line balance that came due upon closing the merger.

During 2017, we paid $12.8 million to repay maturing mortgage loans or pay scheduled principal payments as compared to $28.9 million in 2016.

In connection with the new debt issued above, including expanding our Line commitment, we incurred $8.8 million of loan costs.

At September 30, 2016,March 31, 2017, our investments in real estate partnerships had notes payable of $1.3$1.6 billion maturing through 2031,, of which 98.5%98.7% had a weighted average fixed interest rate of 4.9%4.7%. The remaining notes payable float over LIBOR and had a weighted average variable interest rate of 2.0%2.5%. These notes payable are all non-recourse, and our pro-rata share was $476.9$531.5 million as of September 30, 2016.March 31, 2017. As notes payable mature, we expect they will be repaid from proceeds from new borrowings and/or partner capital contributions. We are obligated to contribute our pro-rata share to fund maturities if they are not refinanced. We believe that our partners are financially sound and have sufficient capital or access thereto to fund future capital requirements. In the event that a co-investment partner was unable to fund its share of the capital requirements of the co-investment partnership, we would have the right, but not the obligation, to loan the defaulting partner the amount of its capital call. 

Management fee income

In addition to earning our pro-rata share of net income or loss in each of these co-investment partnerships, we receive fees, as shown below:

Environmental Matters

We are subject to numerous environmental laws and regulations as they apply to our shopping centers pertaining to chemicals used by the dry cleaning industry, the existence of asbestos in older shopping centers, and underground petroleum storage tanks. We believe that the tenants who currently operate dry cleaning plants or gas stations do so in accordance with current laws and regulations. Generally, we use all legal means to cause tenants to remove dry cleaning plants from our shopping centers or convert them to more environmentally friendly systems. Where available, we have applied and been accepted into state-sponsored environmental programs. We have a blanket environmental insurance policy for third-party liabilities and remediation costs on shopping centers that currently have no known environmental contamination. We have also placed environmental insurance, where possible, on specific properties with known contamination, in order to mitigate our environmental risk. We monitor the shopping centers containing environmental issues and in certain cases voluntarily remediate the sites. We also have legal obligations to remediate certain sites and we are in the process of doing so.

As of September 30, 2016March 31, 2017 we and our Investments in real estate partnerships had accrued liabilities of $8.9$11.5 million for our pro-rata share of environmental remediation. We believe that the ultimate disposition of currently known environmental matters will not have a material effect on our financial position, liquidity, or results of operations; however, we can give no assurance that existing environmental studies on our shopping centers have revealed all potential environmental contaminants and liabilities; that any previous owner, occupant or tenant did not create any material environmental condition not known to us; that the current environmental condition of the shopping centers will not be affected by tenants and occupants, by the condition of nearby properties, or by unrelated third parties; or that changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations or their interpretation will not result in additional environmental liability to us.


Inflation/Deflation

Inflation has been historically low and has had a minimal impact on the operating performance of our shopping centers; however, inflation may become a greater concern in the near future. Substantially all of our long-term leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation. Most of our leases require tenants to pay their pro-rata share of operating expenses, including common-area maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. In addition, many of our leases are for terms of less than ten years, which permits us to seek increased rents upon re-rental at market rates. However, during deflationary periods or periods of economic weakness, minimum rents and percentage rents willtypically decline as the supply of available retail space exceeds demand and consumer spending declines. Occupancy declines resulting from a weak economic period will also likely result in lower recovery rates of our operating expenses.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Controls and Procedures (Regency Centers Corporation)

Under the supervision and with the participation of the Parent Company's management, including its chief executive officer and chief financial officer, the Parent Company conducted an evaluation of its disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Based on this evaluation, the Parent Company's chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that its disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q to ensure information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the SEC's rules and forms. These disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Parent Company in the reports it files or submits is accumulated and communicated to management, including its chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

On March 1, 2017, we completed the Merger with Equity One, whereby Equity One merged with and into the Parent Company with the Parent Company continuing as the surviving corporation. As permitted by SEC guidance for newly acquired businesses, we excluded Equity One from our assessment of internal control over financial reporting, which represented total assets acquired of $6.7 billion (approximately 60% of Company Total assets) as of March 31, 2017. We are in the process of integrating Equity One's operations into our internal control structure. None of these integration activities are expected to have a material impact on our system of internal control over financial reporting.

There have been no changes in ourthe Parent Company's internal controls over financial reporting identified in connection with this evaluation that occurred during the thirdfirst quarter of 20162017 and that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.    Legal Proceedings

We are a party to various legal proceedings whichthat arise in the ordinary course of our business. We are not currently involved in any litigation nor to our knowledge, is any litigation threatened against us, the outcome of which would, in our judgment based on information currently available to us, have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

After the announcement of the merger agreement on November 14, 2016, a putative class action was filed on behalf of a purported stockholder in the Circuit Court for Duval County, Florida, under the following caption: Robert Garfield on Behalf of Himself and All Others Similarly Situated vs. Regency Centers Corporation, Martin E. Stein, Jr., John C. Schweitzer, Raymond L. Bank, Bryce Blair, C. Ronald Blankenship, J. Dix Druce, Jr., Mary Lou Fiala, David P. O'Connor, and Thomas G. Wattles, No. 16-2017-CA-000688-XXXX-MA, filed February 3, 2017.

The class action alleged, among other matters, that the definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus filed by Regency and Equity One with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 24, 2017 (the “Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus”) omitted certain material information in connection with the Merger. The complainant sought various remedies, including injunctive relief to prevent the consummation of the Merger unless certain allegedly material information was disclosed and sought compensatory and rescissory damages in the event the Merger was consummated without such disclosures.

On February 17, 2017, the defendants entered into a stipulation of settlement with respect to the class action, pursuant to which the parties agreed, among other things, that Regency would make certain supplemental disclosures. The supplemental disclosures were made by Regency in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Regency with the SEC on February 17, 2017. The supplemental disclosures should be read in conjunction with the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus, which should be read in its entirety.
