EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the reports on Form 10-Q for the three and ~~six~~nine month periods ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 of Essex Property Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and Essex Portfolio, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership of which Essex Property Trust, Inc. is the sole general partner.

Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to the "Company," "we," "us" or "our" mean collectively Essex Property Trust, Inc. and those entities/subsidiaries owned or controlled by Essex Property Trust, Inc., including Essex Portfolio, L.P., and references to the "Operating Partnership" mean Essex Portfolio, L.P. and those entities/subsidiaries owned or controlled by Essex Portfolio, L.P. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to "Essex" mean Essex Property Trust, Inc., not including any of its subsidiaries.

Essex operates as a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT"), and is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, Essex has exclusive control of the Operating Partnership's day-to-day management.

The Company is structured as an umbrella partnership REIT ("UPREIT") and Essex contributes all net proceeds from its various equity offerings to the Operating Partnership. In return for those contributions, Essex receives a number of Operating Partnership limited partnership units ("OP Units," and the holders of such OP Units, "Unitholders") equal to the number of shares of common stock it has issued in the equity offerings. Contributions of properties to the Company can be structured as tax-deferred transactions through the issuance of OP Units, which is one of the reasons why the Company is structured in the manner outlined above. Based on the terms of the Operating Partnership's partnership agreement, OP Units can be exchanged into Essex common stock on a one-for-one basis. The Company maintains a one-for-one relationship between the OP Units issued to Essex and shares of common stock.

The Company believes that combining the reports on Form 10-Q of Essex and the Operating Partnership into this single report provides the following benefits:

•enhances investors' understanding of Essex 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 since a substantial portion of the disclosure applies to both Essex and the Operating Partnership; and

•creates time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.

Management operates Essex and the Operating Partnership as one business. The management of Essex consists of the same members as the management of the Operating Partnership.

All of the Company's property ownership, development, and related business operations are conducted through the Operating Partnership and Essex has no material assets, other than its investment in the Operating Partnership. Essex's primary function is acting as the general partner of the Operating Partnership. As general partner with control of the Operating Partnership, Essex consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting purposes. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of Essex and the Operating Partnership are the same on their respective financial statements. Essex also issues equity from time to time and guarantees certain debt of the Operating Partnership, as disclosed in this report. The Operating Partnership holds substantially all of the assets of the Company, including the Company's ownership interests in its co-investments. The Operating Partnership conducts the operations of the business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity. Except for the net proceeds from equity offerings by the Company, which are contributed to the capital of the Operating Partnership in exchange for OP Units (on a one-for-one share of common stock per OP Unit basis), the Operating Partnership generates all remaining capital required by the Company's business. These sources of capital include the Operating Partnership's working capital, net cash provided by operating activities, borrowings under its revolving credit facilities, the issuance of secured and unsecured debt and equity securities and proceeds received from disposition of certain properties and co-investments.

The Company believes it is important to understand the few differences between Essex and the Operating Partnership in the context of how Essex and the Operating Partnership operate as a consolidated company. Stockholders' equity, partners' capital and noncontrolling interest are the main areas of difference between the condensed consolidated financial statements of Essex and those of the Operating Partnership. The limited partners of the Operating Partnership are accounted for as partners' capital in the Operating Partnership's condensed consolidated financial statements and as noncontrolling interest in Essex’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership's condensed consolidated financial statements include the interest of unaffiliated partners in various consolidated partnerships and co-investment partners. The noncontrolling interest in Essex's condensed consolidated financial statements include (i) the same noncontrolling interest as

iii

presented in the Operating Partnership’s condensed consolidated financial statements and (ii) OP Unitholders. The differences between stockholders' equity and partners' capital result from differences in the equity issued at Essex and Operating Partnership levels.

To help investors understand the significant differences between Essex and the Operating Partnership, this report on Form 10-Q provides separate condensed consolidated financial statements for Essex and the Operating Partnership; a single set of consolidated notes to such financial statements that includes separate discussions of stockholders' equity or partners' capital, and earnings per share/unit, as applicable; and a combined Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

This report on Form 10-Q also includes separate Part I, Item 4. Controls and Procedures sections and separate Exhibits 31 and 32 certifications for each of Essex and the Operating Partnership in order to establish that the requisite certifications have been made and that Essex and the Operating Partnership are compliant with Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and 18 U.S.C. §1350.

In order to highlight the differences between Essex and the Operating Partnership, the separate sections in this report on Form 10-Q for Essex and the Operating Partnership specifically refer to Essex and the Operating Partnership. In the sections that combine disclosure of Essex and the Operating Partnership, this report refers to actions or holdings as being actions or holdings of the Company. Although the Operating Partnership is generally the entity that directly or indirectly enters into contracts and co-investments and holds assets and debt, reference to the Company is appropriate because the Company is one business and the Company operates that business through the Operating Partnership. The separate discussions of Essex and the Operating Partnership in this report should be read in conjunction with each other to understand the results of the Company on a consolidated basis and how management operates the Company.

The information furnished in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of income and comprehensive income, equity, capital, and cash flows of the Company and the Operating Partnership reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the aforementioned condensed consolidated financial statements for the interim periods and are normal and recurring in nature, except as otherwise noted.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the notes to such unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations herein. Additionally, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

("Essex" or the "Company"), which include the accounts of the Company and Essex Portfolio, L.P. and its subsidiaries (the "Operating Partnership," which holds the operating assets of the Company), prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented have been included and are normal and recurring in nature. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Certain reclassifications have been made to conform to the current year's presentation.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021 include the accounts of the Company and the Operating Partnership. Essex is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, with a 96.6% general partnership interest as of both ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Total Operating Partnership limited partnership units ("OP Units," and the holders of such OP Units, "Unitholders") outstanding were ~~2,273,496~~2,272,496 and 2,282,464 as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, and the redemption value of the units, based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock totaled approximately ~~$594.5~~$550.5 million and $804.0 million as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company owned or had ownership interests in 253 operating apartment communities, comprising 62,397 apartment homes, excluding the Company’s ownership interest in preferred equity co-investments, loan investments, 3three operating commercial buildings, and a development pipeline comprised of 1one unconsolidated joint venture project. The operating apartment communities are located in Southern California (primarily Los Angeles, Orange, San Diego, and Ventura counties), Northern California (the San Francisco Bay Area) and the Seattle metropolitan areas.

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in the Current Year

In January 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2020-06 "Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity." The amendments in ASU 2020-06 modifies the if-converted method of calculating diluted earnings per share ("EPS"). For instruments that may be settled in cash or shares, and are not classified as a liability, the guidance requires entities to include the effect of potential share settlement in the diluted EPS calculation, if the effect is more dilutive. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2022 on a prospective basis. This adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations or financial position.

Revenues and Gains on Sale of Real Estate

Revenues from tenants renting or leasing apartment homes are recorded when due from tenants and are recognized monthly as they are earned which generally approximates a straight-line basis, else, adjustments are made to conform to a straight-line basis. Apartment homes are rented under short-term leases (generally, lease terms of 9 to 12 months). Revenues from tenants leasing commercial space are recorded on a straight-line basis over the life of the respective lease. See Note 3, Revenues, for additional information regarding such revenues.

The Company also generates other property-related revenue associated with the leasing of apartment homes, including storage income, pet rent, and other miscellaneous revenue. Similar to rental income, such revenues are recorded when due from tenants and recognized monthly as they are earned.

Apart from rental and other property-related revenue, revenues from contracts with customers are recognized as control of the promised services is passed to the customer. For customer contracts related to management and other fees from affiliates (which includes asset management and property management), the transaction price and amount of revenue to be recognized is

determined each quarter based on the management fee calculated and earned for that month or quarter. The contract will contain a description of the service and the fee percentage for management services. Payments from such services are one month or one quarter in arrears of the service performed.

The Company recognizes any gains on sales of real estate when it transfers control of a property and when it is probable that the Company will collect substantially all of the related consideration.

Marketable Securities

The Company reports its equity securities and available for sale debt securities at fair value, based on quoted market prices (Level 1 for the common stock and investment funds and Level 2 for the unsecured debt, as defined by the FASB standard for fair value measurements). As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, $0.2 million and $0.8 million, respectively, of equity securities presented within common stock and stock funds in the tables below represent investments measured at fair value, using net asset value as a practical expedient, and are not categorized in the fair value hierarchy.

Any unrealized gain or loss in debt securities classified as available for sale is recorded as other comprehensive income. Unrealized gains and losses in equity securities, realized gains and losses in debt securities, interest income, and amortization of purchase discounts are included in interest and other income on the condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, equity securities and available for sale debt securities consisted primarily of investment funds-debt securities, common stock, preferred stock and stock funds, and investment-grade unsecured debt.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, marketable securities consisted of the following ($ in thousands):

The Company uses the specific identification method to determine the cost basis of a debt security sold and to reclassify amounts from accumulated other comprehensive income for such securities.

For the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, the proceeds from sales and maturities of marketable securities totaled ~~$2.1 million~~zero and $0.1 million, respectively, which resulted in ~~$0.3 million in~~zero realized gains ~~and $0.1 million in realized~~or losses, ~~respectively,~~ for ~~such~~both periods. For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, the proceeds from sales and maturities of marketable securities totaled $30.0 million and ~~$14.9~~$15.0 million, respectively, which resulted in $12.4 million and $2.5 million in realized gains, respectively, for such periods.

For the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the portion of equity security unrealized losses that were recognized in income totaled ~~$21.9~~$17.1 million and ~~$46.4~~$63.6 million, respectively, and were included in interest and other (loss) income on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. For the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021, the portion of equity security unrealized gains that were recognized in income totaled ~~$10.4~~$7.1 million and ~~$16.7~~$23.8 million, respectively, and were included in interest and other (loss) income on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

Variable Interest Entities

In accordance with accounting standards for consolidation of variable interest entities ("VIEs"), the Company consolidated the Operating Partnership, 18 DownREIT entities (comprising 9nine communities), and 6six co-investments as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Company consolidates these entities because it is ~~deemed~~ the primary beneficiary. The Company has no assets or liabilities other than its investment in the Operating Partnership. The consolidated total assets and liabilities related to the above consolidated co-investments and DownREIT entities, net of intercompany eliminations, were approximately ~~$917.9~~$938.4 million and ~~$319.2~~$327.7 million, respectively, as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and $909.3 million and $320.1 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2021. Noncontrolling interests in these entities were ~~$122.5~~$122.1 million and $122.4 million as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The Company's financial risk in each VIE is limited to its equity investment in the VIE. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company did not have any VIEs of which it was not ~~deemed to be~~ the primary beneficiary.

Equity-based Compensation

The cost of share- and unit-based compensation awards is measured at the grant date based on the estimated fair value of the awards. The estimated fair value of stock options and restricted stock granted by the Company are being amortized over the vesting period. The estimated grant date fair values of the long term incentive plan units (discussed in Note 14, "Equity Based Compensation Plans," in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021) are being amortized over the expected service periods.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Management believes that the carrying amounts of the outstanding balances under its lines of credit, and notes and other receivables approximate fair value as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, because interest rates, yields, and other terms for these instruments are consistent with interest rates, yields, and other terms currently available for similar instruments. Management has estimated that the fair value of the Company’s fixed rate debt with a carrying value of $5.7 billion as of both, ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was approximately ~~$5.4~~$5.2 billion and $6.0 billion, respectively. Management has estimated that the fair value of the Company’s ~~$286.5~~$442.6 million and $564.9 million of variable rate debt at ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, was approximately ~~$284.6~~$439.9 million and $561.7 million, respectively, based on the terms of existing mortgage notes payable, unsecured debt, and variable rate demand notes compared to those available in the marketplace. Management believes that the carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, construction payables, other liabilities, and dividends payable approximate fair value as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. Marketable securities are carried at fair value as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Capitalization of Costs

The Company’s capitalized internal costs related to development and redevelopment projects were comprised primarily of interest and employee compensation and totaled ~~$5.8~~$4.5 million and ~~$5.5~~$5.6 million during the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and ~~$11.2~~$15.7 million and ~~$11.9~~$17.5 million, for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company capitalizes leasing commissions associated with the lease-up of development communities and amortizes the costs over the life of the leases. The amounts capitalized for leasing commissions are immaterial for all periods presented.

Co-investments

The Company owns investments in joint ventures in which it has significant influence, but its ownership interest does not meet the criteria for consolidation in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Therefore, the Company accounts for co-investments using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, the investment is carried at the cost of assets contributed, plus the Company's equity in earnings, less distributions received and the Company's share of losses. The significant accounting policies of the Company’s co-investment entities are consistent with those of the Company in all material respects.

Upon the acquisition of a controlling interest of a co-investment, the co-investment entity is consolidated and a gain or loss is recognized upon the remeasurement of co-investments in the consolidated statement of income equal to the amount by which the fair value of the Company's previously owned co-investment interest exceeds its carrying value. A majority of the co-investments, excluding most preferred equity investments, compensate the Company for its asset management services and some of these investments may provide promote income if certain financial return benchmarks are achieved. Asset management fees are recognized when earned, and promote fees are recognized when the earnings events have occurred and the amount is determinable and collectible. Any promote fees are reflected in equity income from co-investments.

Accounting Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements, in accordance with U.S. GAAP, requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to acquiring, developing and assessing the carrying values of its real estate portfolio, its investments in and advances to joint ventures and affiliates, its notes receivables, and its qualification as a real estate investment trust ("REIT"). The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, current market conditions, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may vary from those estimates and those estimates could be different under different assumptions or conditions.

(10) Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company had entered into an interest rate swap contract which effectively fixed the interest rate on future draw downs on the unsecured term loan at 4.2% of which nothing has been drawn as of September 30, 2022. These derivatives qualify for hedge accounting.

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the aggregate carrying value of the interest rate swap contracts were an asset of $6.2 million and a liability of zero, respectively. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the swap contracts were presented in the consolidated balance sheets as an asset of $6.2 million and a liability of zero, respectively, and were included in prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company had no interest rate swap contracts.

The Company has 4four total return swap contracts, with an aggregate notional amount of ~~$224.0~~$223.8 million, that effectively convert ~~$224.0~~$223.8 million of mortgage notes payable to a floating interest rate based on the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association Municipal Swap Index ("SIFMA") plus a spread. The total return swaps provide fair market value protection on the mortgage notes payable to the counterparties during the initial period of the total return swap until the Company's option to call the mortgage notes at par can be exercised. The Company can currently call all 4four of its total return swaps, with ~~$224.0~~$223.8 million of the outstanding debt at par. These derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting and had a carrying and fair value of zero at both ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. These total return swaps are scheduled to mature between November 2022 and December 2024. The realized gains of ~~$2.3~~$1.9 million and $2.7 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and ~~$4.8~~$6.7 million and ~~$5.5~~$8.1 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, were reported in the condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income as total return swap income.

(11) Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject to various lawsuits in the normal course of its business operations. Such lawsuits have not had a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. While no assurances can be given, the Company does not believe there is any pending or threatened litigation against the Company that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

The Company is subject to various federal, state, and local environmental and other laws. Compliance by the Company with existing laws has not had a material adverse effect on the Company. However, the Company cannot predict the impact of new,

Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes thereto included elsewhere herein and with the Company’s 2021 annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Capitalized terms not defined in this section have the meaning ascribed to them elsewhere in this ~~Quarterly Report~~quarterly report on Form 10-Q. The Company makes statements in this section that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. For a complete discussion of forward-looking statements, see the section in this Form 10-Q entitled "Forward-Looking Statements."

Essex is a self-administered and self-managed REIT that acquires, develops, redevelops, and manages apartment communities in selected residential areas located on the West Coast of the United States. Essex owns all of its interests in its real estate investments, directly or indirectly through the Operating Partnership. Essex is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and, as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, had an approximately 96.6% general partnership interest in the Operating Partnership.

The Company’s investment strategy has two components: constant monitoring of existing markets, and evaluation of new markets to identify areas with the characteristics that underlie rental growth. The Company’s strong financial condition supports its investment strategy by enhancing its ability to quickly shift acquisition, development, redevelopment, and disposition activities to markets that will optimize the performance of the Company's portfolio.

The Company’s apartment communities are located in the following major regions:

Southern California (primarily Los Angeles, Orange, San Diego, and Ventura counties)

Northern California (the San Francisco Bay Area)

Seattle Metro ~~(Seattle~~(the Seattle metropolitan area)

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company’s development pipeline was comprised of one unconsolidated joint venture project under development, and various predevelopment projects aggregating 264 apartment homes, with total incurred costs of ~~$89.0~~$97.0 million, and estimated remaining project costs of approximately ~~$35.0~~$29.0 million, ~~$18.0~~$14.8 million of which represents the Company's share of estimated remaining costs, for total estimated project costs of ~~$124.0~~$126.0 million.

The Company’s consolidated apartment communities are as follows:


		As of June 30, 2022			As of June 30, 2021				As of September 30, 2022			As of September 30, 2021

~~The~~Market Considerations, including the COVID-19 Pandemic

In an effort to ~~slow down the spread of the viruses and~~ mitigate ~~their~~its impact on affected populations, federal, state and local jurisdictions ~~have~~ implemented varying forms of requirements which may continue to negatively affect profitability.

various regions in which ~~Essex's~~our communities are located, impacting ~~Essex~~the Company and its properties. The Company continues to work to comply with the stated intent of local, county, state and federal laws.

35While COVID-19’s impact begins to dissipate, geopolitical tensions between Russian and Ukraine increased uncertainty during 2022. Inflation has caused an increase in consumer prices, thereby reducing purchasing power and elevating the risks of a recession. At the same time, the labor market remains historically tight and companies continue to look to add employees, pushing unemployment lower.

~~Table of Contents~~

The long-term impact of ~~the COVID-19 pandemic on the U.S. and world economies generally, and on the Company's results in particular~~these developments will largely depend on ~~uncertain future developments, including~~ new information which may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and related variants, future laws that may be enacted, the impact on job growth and the broader economy, and reactions by consumers, companies, governmental entities and capital markets.

Primarily as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company's cash delinquencies as a percentage of scheduled rental income for the Company’s stabilized apartment communities or "Same-Property" (stabilized properties consolidated by the Company for the quarters ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021) have generally remained higher than the pre-pandemic historical range of 0.3% to 0.4% since the second quarter of 2020. Cash delinquencies remained elevated at ~~2.6%~~1.5% for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021 but decreased slightly to ~~0.3%~~1.4% for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, ~~due to $13.0 million of Emergency Rental Assistance payments,~~ however, current tenant delinquencies remain above pre-pandemic levels. The Company continues to work with residents to collect such cash delinquencies. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, delinquencies have not had a material adverse impact on the Company's liquidity position. The Company's average financial occupancy for the Company’s Same-Property portfolio slightly decreased from ~~96.6%~~96.4% for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021 to ~~96.1%~~96.0% for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022.

The COVID-19 pandemic has not negatively impacted the Company's ability to access traditional funding sources on the same or reasonably similar terms as were available in recent periods prior to the pandemic, as demonstrated by the Company's financing activity during the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 discussed in the "Liquidity and Capital Resources" section below. The Company is not at material risk of not meeting the covenants in its credit agreements and is able to timely service its debt and other obligations.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 to the Three Months Ended ~~June~~September 30, 2021

The Company’s average financial occupancy for the Company’s Same-Property portfolio was ~~96.1%~~96.0% and ~~96.6%~~96.4% for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Financial occupancy is defined as the percentage resulting from dividing actual rental income by total scheduled rental income. Actual rental income represents contractual rental income pursuant to leases without considering delinquency and concessions. Total scheduled rental income represents the value of all apartment homes, with occupied apartment homes valued at contractual rental rates pursuant to leases and vacant apartment homes valued at estimated market rents. The Company believes that financial occupancy is a meaningful measure of occupancy because it considers the value of each vacant apartment home at its estimated market rate.

Market rates are determined using the recently signed effective rates on new leases at the property and are used as the starting point in the determination of the market rates of vacant apartment homes. The Company may increase or decrease these rates based on a variety of factors, including overall supply and demand for housing, concentration of new apartment deliveries within the same submarket which can cause periodic disruption due to greater rental concessions to increase leasing velocity, and rental affordability. Financial occupancy may not completely reflect short-term trends in physical occupancy and financial occupancy rates, and the Company's calculation of financial occupancy may not be comparable to financial occupancy disclosed by other REITs.

The Company does not take into account delinquency and concessions to calculate actual rent for occupied apartment homes and market rents for vacant apartment homes. The calculation of financial occupancy compares contractual rates for occupied apartment homes to estimated market rents for unoccupied apartment homes, and thus the calculation compares the gross value of all apartment homes excluding delinquency and concessions. For apartment communities that are development properties in lease-up without stabilized occupancy figures, the Company believes the physical occupancy rate is the appropriate performance metric. While an apartment community is in the lease-up phase, the Company’s primary motivation is to stabilize the property, which may entail the use of rent concessions and other incentives, and thus financial occupancy, which is based on contractual income, is not considered the best metric to quantify occupancy.

The regional breakdown of the Company’s Same-Property portfolio for financial occupancy for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021 is as follows:

Three Months Ended June 30,

The increase was primarily attributable to an increase of ~~7.2%~~8.9% in average rental rates from ~~$2,296~~$2,328 in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021 to ~~$2,461~~$2,535 in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 and ~~$11.5 million~~2.5% of the increase was attributable to a decrease in cash concessions in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 compared to the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021.

Non-Same Property Revenues increased by ~~$6.4~~$7.4 million or ~~36.3%~~39.3% to ~~$23.9~~$26.3 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 from ~~$17.5~~$18.9 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021.

Property operating expenses, excluding real estate taxes increased by ~~$6.5~~$4.0 million or ~~10.3%~~5.8% to ~~$69.8~~$73.5 million for the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 compared to ~~$63.3~~$69.5 million for the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021, primarily due to increases of ~~$3.0~~$1.9 million in maintenance and repairs expenses, ~~$1.6~~$1.7 million in utilities expenses, and ~~$1.5~~$0.3 million in administrative expenses. Same-Property operating expenses, excluding real estate taxes, increased by ~~$5.3~~$3.0 million or ~~8.6%~~4.5% to ~~$66.6~~$69.8 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022 compared to ~~$61.3~~$66.8 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2021, primarily due to increases of ~~$3.0~~$1.6 million in maintenance and repairs expenses and $1.3 million in utilities ~~expenses, $0.5 million in insurance and other expenses, and $0.5 million in administrative~~ expenses.

These decreases in interest expense were partially offset by the issuance of new senior unsecured notes which resulted in an increase of ~~$5.0~~$6.5 million interest expense for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022. Additionally, there was a ~~$2.2~~$3.1 million decrease in capitalized interest in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, due to a decrease in development activity as compared to the same period in 2021.

Total return swap income of ~~$4.8~~$6.7 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 consists of monthly settlements related to the Company's total return swap contracts with an aggregate notional amount of ~~$224.0~~$223.8 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company had ~~$37.8~~$42.7 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and ~~$154.5~~$141.7 million in marketable securities, all of which were equity securities or available for sale debt securities. The Company believes that cash flows generated by its operations, existing cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities balances and availability under existing lines of credit are sufficient to meet all of its anticipated cash needs during the next twelve months. Additionally, the capital markets continue to be available and the Company is able to generate cash from the disposition of real estate assets to finance additional cash flow needs, including continued development and select acquisitions. In the event that conditions become further exacerbated due to the COVID-19 pandemic and related economic disruptions, the Company may further utilize other resources such as its cash reserves, lines of credit, or decreased investment in redevelopment activities to supplement operating cash flows. The Company is carefully monitoring and managing its cash position in light of ongoing conditions and

~~Table of Contents~~

levels of operations. The timing, source and amounts of cash flows provided by financing activities and used in investing activities are sensitive to changes in interest rates and other fluctuations in the capital markets environment, which can affect the Company's plans for acquisitions, dispositions, development and redevelopment activities.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, Moody’s Investor Service, and Standard and Poor's credit agencies rated the Company and the Operating Partnership, Baa1/Stable, and BBB+/Stable, respectively.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company had two unsecured lines of credit aggregating $1.24 billion. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, there was ~~$45.0~~$190.0 million outstanding on the Company's $1.2 billion unsecured line of credit. The underlying interest rate is based on a tiered rate structure tied to the Company's credit ratings, ~~and sustainability-linked metrics~~adjusted for the Company's sustainability metric grid, and was ~~LIBOR~~at Adjusted SOFR plus 0.75% as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022. This facility is scheduled to mature in ~~September 2025,~~January 2027, with ~~three 6-month~~two six-month extensions, exercisable at the Company's option. During the quarter, the borrowing spread on this facility was reduced by 2.5 basis points as a result of achieving the Enhanced Sustainability Metric Target for 2021 as defined by the facility's sustainability-linked pricing component. In July 2022, the credit facility was amended such that the scheduled maturity date was extended to January 2027 with two 6-month extension options, exercisable at the Company's option. The underlying interest rate on the line is based on a tiered rate structure tied to the Company's corporate ratings and is currently at Adjusted SOFR plus 0.75%. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, there was ~~$18.2~~$29.5 million outstanding on the Company's $35.0 million working capital unsecured line of credit. The underlying interest rate on the $35.0 million line is based on a tiered rate structure tied to the Company's credit ratings, ~~and sustainability-linked metrics~~adjusted for the Company's sustainability metric grid, and was ~~LIBOR~~at Adjusted SOFR plus ~~0.775%~~0.75% as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022.

In September 2021, the Company entered into a new equity distribution agreement pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell shares of its common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $900.0 million (the “2021 ATM Program”). In connection with the 2021 ATM Program, the Company may also enter into related forward sale agreements, and may sell shares of its common stock pursuant to these agreements. The use of a forward sale agreement would allow the Company to lock in a share price on the sale of shares of its common stock at the time the agreement is executed, but defer receipt of the proceeds from the sale of shares until a later date should the Company elect to settle such forward sale agreement, in whole or in part, in shares of common stock.

During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company did not sell any shares of its common stock through the 2021 ATM Program. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, there are no outstanding forward purchase agreements, and $900.0 million of shares remains available to be sold under the 2021 ATM Program.

In December 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase plan to allow the Company to acquire shares in an aggregate of up to $250.0 million. In February 2019, the Board of Directors approved the replenishment of the stock repurchase plan such that, as of such date, the Company had $250.0 million of purchase authority remaining under the stock repurchase plan. In each of May and December 2020, the Board of Directors approved the replenishment of the stock repurchase plan such that, as of such date, the Company had $250.0 million of purchase authority remaining under the replenished plan. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company repurchased and retired 218,960 shares of its common stock totaling $60.8 million, including commissions, at an average price of $277.81 per share. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $153.6 million of purchase authority remaining under the stock repurchase plan. In September 2022, the Company's Board of Directors approved a new stock repurchase plan to allow the Company to acquire common stock up to an aggregate value of $500.0 million. The plan supersedes the Company's previous common stock repurchase plan announced in December 2015. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company repurchased and retired 590,844 shares of its common stock totaling $158.0 million, including commissions, at an average price of $267.33 per share, of which 271,397 shares totaling $69.9 million were repurchased under the new plan after its approval. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $430.1 million of purchase authority remaining under the new stock repurchase plan.

Essex pays quarterly dividends from cash available for distribution. Until it is distributed, cash available for distribution is invested by the Company primarily in investment grade securities held available for sale or is used by the Company to reduce balances outstanding under its line of credit.

Development and Predevelopment Pipeline

The Company defines development projects as new communities that are being constructed, or are newly constructed and are in a phase of lease-up and have not yet reached stabilized operations. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company’s development pipeline was comprised of one unconsolidated joint venture project under development and various consolidated predevelopment projects, aggregating 264 apartment homes, with total incurred costs of ~~$89.0~~$97.0 million, and estimated remaining project costs of approximately ~~$35.0~~$29.0 million, ~~$18.0~~$14.8 million of which represents the Company's share of estimated remaining costs, for total estimated project costs of ~~$124.0~~$126.0 million.

~~Table of Contents~~

The Company defines predevelopment projects as proposed communities in negotiation or in the entitlement process with an expected high likelihood of becoming entitled development projects. The Company may also acquire land for future development purposes or sale.

The Company expects to fund the development and predevelopment communities by using a combination of some or all of the following sources: its working capital, amounts available on its lines of credit, construction loans, net proceeds from public and private equity and debt issuances, and proceeds from the disposition of assets, if any.

Derivative Activity

The Company uses interest rate swaps, interest rate caps, and total return swap contracts to manage certain interest rate risks. The valuation of these instruments 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. The fair values of interest rate swaps and total return swaps are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts (or payments) and the discounted expected variable cash payments (or receipts). The variable cash payments (or receipts) are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. 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.

Alternative Capital Sources

The Company utilizes co-investments as an alternative source of capital for acquisitions of both operating and development communities. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2022, the Company had an interest in 264 apartment homes in a community actively under development with a joint venture for total estimated costs of $102.0 million. Total estimated remaining costs are approximately ~~$35.0~~$29.0 million, of which the Company estimates its remaining investment in these development joint ventures will be approximately ~~$17.9~~$14.8 million. In addition, the Company had an interest in ~~10,636~~10,425 apartment homes of operating communities with joint ventures for a total book value of ~~$516.3~~$509.4 million as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has various unconsolidated interests in certain joint ventures. The Company does not believe that these unconsolidated investments have a materially different impact on its liquidity, cash flows, capital resources, credit or market risk than its consolidated operations. See Note 4, Co-investments, in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, for carrying values and combined summarized financial information of these unconsolidated investments.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements, in accordance with U.S. GAAP, requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company defines critical accounting estimates as those accounting policies that require the Company’s management to exercise their most difficult, subjective and complex judgments. The Company’s critical accounting estimates relate principally to the evaluation of events and changes in circumstances indicating whether the Company’s rental properties may be impaired. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, current market conditions, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from those estimates made by management.

The Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates have not changed materially from the information reported in Note 2, Summary of Critical and Significant Accounting Policies, in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Funds from Operations Attributable to Common Stockholders and Unitholders

Funds from Operations Attributable to Common Stockholders and Unitholders ("FFO") is a financial measure that is commonly used in the REIT industry. The Company presents FFO and FFO excluding non-core items (referred to as "Core FFO") as supplemental operating performance measures. FFO and Core FFO are not used by the Company as, nor should they be considered to be, alternatives to net income computed under U.S. GAAP as an indicator of the Company’s operating

~~Table of Contents~~

performance or as alternatives to cash from operating activities computed under U.S. GAAP as an indicator of the Company’s ability to fund its cash needs.

FFO and Core FFO are not meant to represent a comprehensive system of financial reporting and do not present, nor do they intend to present, a complete picture of the Company's financial condition and operating performance. The Company believes that net income computed under U.S. GAAP is the primary measure of performance and that FFO and Core FFO are only meaningful when they are used in conjunction with net income.

The Company considers FFO and Core FFO to be useful financial performance measurements of an equity REIT because, together with net income and cash flows, FFO and Core FFO provide investors with additional bases to evaluate operating performance and ability of a REIT to incur and service debt and to fund acquisitions and other capital expenditures and to pay dividends. By excluding gains or losses related to sales of depreciated operating properties and excluding real estate depreciation (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO can help investors compare the operating performance of a real estate company between periods or as compared to different companies. By further adjusting for items that are not considered part of the Company’s core business operations, Core FFO allows investors to compare the core operating performance of the Company to its performance in prior reporting periods and to the operating performance of other real estate companies without the effect of items that by their nature are not comparable from period to period and tend to obscure the Company’s actual operating results. The Company believes that its condensed consolidated financial statements, prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, provide the most meaningful picture of its financial condition and its operating performance.

In calculating FFO, the Company follows the definition for this measure published by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), which is the leading REIT industry association. The Company believes that, under the NAREIT FFO definition, the two most significant adjustments made to net income are (i) the exclusion of historical cost depreciation and (ii) the exclusion of gains and losses from the sale of previously depreciated properties. The Company agrees that these two NAREIT adjustments are useful to investors for the following reasons:

(a)historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with U.S. GAAP assumes, through depreciation charges, that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. NAREIT stated in its White Paper on

Table of Contents

Funds from Operations "since real estate asset values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors have considered presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves." Consequently, NAREIT’s definition of FFO reflects the fact that real estate, as an asset class, generally appreciates over time and depreciation charges required by U.S. GAAP do not reflect the underlying economic realities.

(b)REITs were created as a legal form of organization in order to encourage public ownership of real estate as an asset class through investment in firms that were in the business of long-term ownership and management of real estate. The exclusion, in NAREIT’s definition of FFO, of gains and losses from the sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets allows investors and analysts to readily identify the operating results of the long-term assets that form the core of a REIT’s activity and assists in comparing those operating results between periods.

Management believes that it has consistently applied the NAREIT definition of FFO to all periods presented. However, there is judgment involved and other REITs’ calculation of FFO may vary from the NAREIT definition for this measure, and thus their disclosure of FFO may not be comparable to the Company’s calculation.

The following table is a reconciliation of net income available to common stockholders to FFO and Core FFO for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022 and 2021 (in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

Net Operating Income

Net operating income ("NOI") and Same-Property NOI are considered by management to be important supplemental performance measures to earnings from operations included in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. The presentation of Same-Property NOI assists with the presentation of the Company’s operations prior to the allocation of depreciation and any corporate-level or financing-related costs. NOI reflects the operating performance of a community and allows for an easy comparison of the operating performance of individual communities or groups of communities. In addition, because prospective buyers of real estate have different financing and overhead structures, with varying marginal impacts to overhead by acquiring real estate, NOI is considered by many in the real estate industry to be a useful measure for determining the value of a real estate asset or group of assets. The Company defines Same-Property NOI as Same-Property revenues less Same-Property operating expenses, including property taxes. Please see the reconciliation of earnings from operations to NOI and Same-Property NOI, which in the table below is the NOI for stabilized properties consolidated by the Company for the periods presented ($ in thousands):

Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks

Interest Rate Hedging Activities

The Company’s objective in using derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements or other identified risks. To accomplish this objective, the Company uses interest rate swaps as part of its cash flow hedging strategy.

All of the Company's interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges as of September 30, 2022. The following table summarizes the notional amount, carrying value, and estimated fair value of the Company’s cash flow hedge derivative instruments used to hedge interest rates as of September 30, 2022. The notional amount represents the aggregate amount of a particular security that is currently hedged at one time, but does not represent exposure to credit, interest rates or market risks. The table also includes a sensitivity analysis to demonstrate the impact on the Company’s derivative instruments from an increase or decrease in 10-year Treasury bill interest rates by 50 basis points, as of September 30, 2022.

Table of Contents


	Notional Amount		Maturity Date Range	Carrying and Estimated Fair Value		Estimated Carrying Value
						+50		-50
($ in thousands)						Basis Points		Basis Points
Cash flow hedges:
Interest rate swaps	$	300,000	2026	$	6,166	$	1,533	$	10,680

Total cash flow hedges	$	300,000	2026	$	6,166	$	1,533	$	10,680

Additionally, the Company has entered into four total return swap contracts, with an aggregate notional amount of ~~$224.0~~$223.8 million that effectively convert ~~$224.0~~$223.8 million of fixed mortgage notes payable to a floating interest rate based on the SIFMA plus a spread and have a carrying value of zero at ~~June~~September 30, 2022. The Company is exposed to insignificant interest rate risk on these swaps as the related mortgages are callable, at par, by the Company, co-terminus with the termination of any related swap. These derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting.

Interest Rate Sensitive Liabilities

The Company is exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of its lines of credit and long-term debt used to maintain liquidity and fund capital expenditures and expansion of the Company's real estate investment portfolio and operations. The Company’s interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower its overall borrowing costs. To achieve its objectives, the Company borrows primarily at fixed rates and may enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps, caps, and treasury locks in order to mitigate its interest rate risk on a related financial instrument. The Company does not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes.

The Company’s interest rate risk is monitored using a variety of techniques. The table below presents the principal amounts and weighted average interest rates by year of expected maturity to evaluate the expected cash flows.

(1) ~~$224.0~~$223.8 million is subject to total return swaps.

The table incorporates only those exposures that exist as of ~~June~~September 30, 2022. It does not consider those exposures or positions that could arise after that date. As a result, the Company's ultimate realized gain or loss, with respect to interest rate fluctuations and hedging strategies would depend on the exposures that arise prior to settlement.
