•combined reports enhance investors’ understanding of the Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling them to view the business as a whole and in the same manner as management;

•combined reports are more efficient for the Company and the Operating Partnership and result in savings in time, effort and expense; and

•combined reports are more efficient for investors by reducing duplicative disclosure and providing a single document for their review.

To help investors understand the significant differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership, this report presents the following separate sections for each of the Company and the Operating Partnership:

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(tabular dollar amounts in thousands, except per share and per unit data)

(Unaudited)

1. Description of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business

Highwoods Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) is a fully integrated office real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that owns, develops, acquires, leases and manages properties primarily in the best business districts ~~(BBDs)~~ of Atlanta, Charlotte, Dallas, Nashville, Orlando, ~~Pittsburgh,~~ Raleigh, Richmond and Tampa. The Company conducts its activities through Highwoods Realty Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”). At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, we owned or had an interest in ~~28.0~~28.1 million rentable square feet of in-service properties, ~~0.6~~1.4 million rentable square feet of office properties under development and development land with approximately ~~4.8~~5.0 million rentable square feet of potential office build out.

Capital Structure

The Company is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, the Company owned all of the Preferred Units and ~~104.7~~104.8 million, or ~~97.7%~~97.8%, of the Common Units in the Operating Partnership. Limited partners owned the remaining ~~2.5~~2.4 million Common Units. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company redeemed 30,909 Common Units for a like number of shares of Common Stock and 91,887 Common Units for cash.

During 2020, we entered into separate equity distribution agreements in which the Company may offer and sell up to $300.0 million in aggregate gross sales price of shares of Common Stock. During the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, the Company issued 130,011 shares of Common Stock under its equity distribution agreements at an average gross sales price of $46.50 per share and received net proceeds, after sales commissions, of $6.0 million. As a result of this activity and the redemptions discussed above, the percentage of Common Units owned by the Company increased from 97.7% at December 31, 2021 to 97.8% at September 30, 2022.

Basis of Presentation

Our Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

The Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements include the Operating Partnership, wholly owned subsidiaries and those entities in which the Company has the controlling interest. The Operating Partnership’s Consolidated Financial Statements include wholly owned subsidiaries and those entities in which the Operating Partnership has the controlling interest. We consolidate joint venture investments, such as interests in partnerships and limited liability companies, when we control the major operating and financial policies of the investment through majority ownership, in our capacity as a general partner or managing member or through some other contractual right. ~~At March 31,~~In addition, we consolidate those entities deemed to be variable interest entities in which we are determined to be the primary beneficiary.

During the third quarter of 2022, we acquired an office building using a special purpose entity owned by a qualified intermediary to facilitate one or more potential Section 1031 reverse exchanges under the Internal Revenue Code. To realize the tax deferrals available under the Section 1031 exchanges, we must complete the Section 1031 exchanges and take title to the to-be-exchanged buildings within 180 days of the acquisition date. We have determined that this entity is a variable interest entity of which we are the primary beneficiary; and therefore, we consolidate this entity. At September 30, 2022, we also have involvement with ~~and~~four additional entities we determined to be variable interest entities, one of which we are the primary beneficiary ~~in, an entity that~~and is consolidated and three of which we ~~concluded to be a variable interest entity. As such, this entity is consolidated. Additionally, at March 31, 2022, we have involvement with, but~~ are not the primary beneficiary ~~in, an entity that we concluded to be a variable interest entity. As such, this entity is~~and are not consolidated. (See Note 3).

All intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying unaudited consolidated financial information, in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. We have condensed or omitted certain notes and other information

Table of Contents

from the interim Consolidated Financial Statements presented in this Quarterly Report as permitted by SEC rules and regulations. These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

~~Table of Contents~~

Insurance

We are primarily self-insured for health care claims for participating employees. We have stop-loss coverage to limit our exposure to significant claims on a per claim and annual aggregate basis. We determine our liabilities for claims, including incurred but not reported losses, based on all relevant information, including actuarial estimates of claim liabilities. At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, a reserve of $0.6 million was recorded to cover estimated reported and unreported claims.

Investment Activity

During the third quarter of 2022, we entered the Dallas market through the formation of two joint ventures with Granite Properties to develop the following Class AA assets:

Project

BBD

Own %

Rentable Square Feet

Granite Park Six

Frisco/Plano

50%

422,000

23Springs

Uptown

50%

642,000

In connection with the formation, we agreed to contribute our 50.0% share of the equity required to fund the development projects, $55.7 million of which was funded on the formation date. We determined that we have a variable interest in each of these entities (see Note 3).

The Granite Park Six joint venture obtained a construction loan for $115.0 million, with an interest rate of SOFR plus 394 basis points and a maturity date of January 2026. In connection with this loan, the Granite Park Six joint venture obtained an interest rate hedge contract that effectively caps the underlying SOFR rate at 3.5% with respect to $95.2 million of any outstanding amounts. The cap expires in July 2024. No amounts were drawn on this loan as of September 30, 2022. The 23Springs joint venture obtained a construction loan for $265.0 million, with an interest rate of SOFR plus 355 basis points and a maturity date of March 2026. In connection with this loan, the 23Springs joint venture obtained an interest rate hedge contract that effectively caps the underlying SOFR rate at 3.5% with respect to $83.0 million of any outstanding amounts. The cap expires in April 2024. No amounts were drawn on this loan as of September 30, 2022.

We plan to fund our entry into the Dallas market, including our share of the equity required to construct Granite Park Six and 23Springs, by exiting the Pittsburgh market (see Note 4). Our Pittsburgh assets, which consist of 2,155,000 square feet of office that was 90.3% occupied as of September 30, 2022, represent approximately 6% of our overall net operating income.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an accounting standards update (“ASU”) that provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens related to the expected market transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates, such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). Entities can elect not to apply certain modification accounting requirements to contracts affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. An entity that makes this election would not have to remeasure the contracts at the modification date or reassess a previous accounting determination. Entities can also elect various optional expedients that would allow them to continue applying hedge accounting for hedging relationships affected by reference rate reform, if certain criteria are met. The guidance in this ASU is optional and may be elected now through December 31, 2022 as reference rate reform activities occur. We will continue to evaluate the impact of this ASU; however, we currently expect to avail ourselves of such optional expedients and exceptions should our modified contracts meet the required criteria.

2. Leases

Operating Leases

We generally lease our office properties to lessees in exchange for fixed monthly payments that cover rent, property taxes, insurance and certain cost recoveries, primarily common area maintenance. Office properties owned by us that are under lease are primarily located in Atlanta, Charlotte, Nashville, Orlando, Pittsburgh, Raleigh, Richmond and Tampa and are leased to a wide variety of lessees across many industries. Our leases are operating leases and mostly range from three to 10 years. We recognized rental and other revenues related to operating lease payments of ~~$203.6~~$203.9 million and ~~$179.9~~$192.3 million during the three months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $608.1 million and $554.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Included in these amounts are variable lease payments of ~~$17.4~~$16.9 million and ~~$14.5~~$13.7 million during the three months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $51.9 million and $42.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

3. Variable Interest Entities

The acquisition of SIX50 at Legacy Union in Charlotte was completed in the third quarter of 2022 using a special purpose entity owned by a qualified intermediary to facilitate one or more potential Section 1031 reverse exchanges under the Internal Revenue Code. As of September 30, 2022, this variable interest entity had total assets, liabilities and cash flows of $200.6 million, $3.3 million, and $0.5 million, respectively.

Consolidated Variable Interest Entity

In 2019, we and The Bromley Companies formed a joint venture to construct Midtown West, a 150,000 square foot, multi-customer office building located in the mixed-use Midtown Tampa project in Tampa’s Westshore submarket. Midtown West has an anticipated total investment of $71.3 million. Construction of Midtown West began in the third quarter of 2019 and the building was placed in service in the second quarter of 2021. At closing, we agreed to contribute cash of $20.0 million, which has been fully funded, in exchange for an 80.0% interest in the Midtown West joint venture and The Bromley Companies contributed land valued at $5.0 million in exchange for the remaining 20.0% interest. We also committed to provide a $46.3 million interest-only secured construction loan to the Midtown West joint venture that is scheduled to mature ~~on the second anniversary of completion of the building as defined~~ in ~~the loan agreement. The maturity date is currently estimated at mid-2023.~~June 2023. The loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 250 basis points. As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, ~~$30.1~~$37.7 million under the loan has been funded.

We determined that we have a variable interest in the Midtown West joint venture primarily because the entity was designed to pass along interest rate risk, equity price risk and operation risk to us as both a debt and an equity holder and The Bromley Companies as an equity holder. The Midtown West joint venture was further determined to be a variable interest entity as it requires additional subordinated financial support in the form of a loan because the initial equity investment provided by us and The Bromley Companies is not sufficient to finance its planned investments and operations. We, as majority owner and managing member and through our control rights as set forth in the joint venture’s governance documents, were determined to be the primary beneficiary as we have both the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the entity (primarily lease rates, property operations and capital expenditures) and significant economic exposure through our equity investment and loan commitment. As such, the Midtown West joint venture is consolidated and all intercompany transactions and accounts are eliminated. The following table sets forth the assets and liabilities of the Midtown West joint venture included on our Consolidated Balance Sheets:


		March 31, 2022		December 31, 2021			September 30, 2022		December 31, 2021

Net real estate assets	Net real estate assets	$	55,061	$	53,191	Net real estate assets	$	60,917	$	53,191

The assets of the Midtown West joint venture can be used only to settle obligations of the joint venture, and its creditors have no recourse to our wholly owned assets.

Unconsolidated Variable Interest ~~Entity~~Entities

During the fourth quarter of 2021, we and Brand Properties, LLC (“Brand”) formed a joint venture to construct 2827 Peachtree, a 135,000 square foot, multi-customer office building located in Atlanta’s Buckhead submarket. 2827 Peachtree has an anticipated total investment of $79.0 million. Construction of 2827 Peachtree began in the first quarter of 2022 with a scheduled completion date in the third quarter of 2023. At closing, we agreed to contribute cash of $13.3 million, which has been fully funded, in exchange for a 50.0% interest in the 2827 Peachtree joint venture and Brand contributed land valued at $7.7 million and cash of $5.6 million in exchange for the remaining 50.0% interest. We also committed to provide a $49.6 million interest-only secured construction loan to the 2827 Peachtree joint venture that is scheduled to mature in December 2024 with an option to extend for one year. The loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 300 basis points. As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, no amounts under the loan have been funded.

We determined that we have a variable interest in the 2827 Peachtree joint venture primarily because the entity was designed to pass along interest rate risk, equity price risk and operation risk to us as both a debt and equity holder and Brand as an equity holder. The 2827 Peachtree joint venture was further determined to be a variable interest entity as it requires additional subordinated financial support in the form of a loan because the initial equity investment provided by us and Brand is not sufficient to finance its planned investments and operations. ~~However, since we are the not the managing member or lead developer, we~~We concluded we do not have the power to direct matters that most significantly impact the activities of the entity and therefore do not qualify as the primary beneficiary. Accordingly, the entity is not consolidated. At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, our risk of loss with respect to this arrangement was limited to the carrying value of the investment balance of ~~$13.5~~$13.7 million as no amounts were outstanding under the loan. The assets of the 2827 Peachtree joint venture can be used only to settle obligations of the joint venture and its creditors have no recourse to our wholly owned assets.

We also determined that we have a variable interest in both the Granite Park Six and 23Springs joint ventures primarily because the entities were designed to pass along interest rate risk, equity price risk and operation risk to us and Granite Properties as equity holders. The joint ventures were further determined to be variable interest entities as they require additional subordinated financial support in the form of loans because the initial equity investments provided by us and Granite Properties are not sufficient to finance the planned investments and operations. We concluded we do not have the power to direct matters that most significantly impact the activities of either entity and therefore do not qualify as the primary beneficiary. Accordingly, the entities are not consolidated. At September 30, 2022, our risk of loss with respect to these arrangements was limited to the carrying value of each investment balance as no amounts were outstanding under the loans. Our investment balances were $36.1 million and $37.9 million at September 30, 2022 for Granite Park Six and 23Springs, respectively. The assets of the Granite Park Six and 23Springs joint ventures can be used only to settle obligations of the respective joint venture and their creditors have no recourse to our wholly owned assets.

4. Real Estate Assets

Acquisitions

During the third quarter of 2022, we acquired SIX50 at Legacy Union, a 367,000 square foot trophy office building in Charlotte’s Uptown CBD submarket, for a net purchase price of $198.0 million. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at relative fair value as determined by management, with the assistance of third party specialists, based on information available at the acquisition date and on current assumptions as to future operations.

During the second quarter of 2022, we acquired land in Charlotte for an aggregate purchase price, including capitalized acquisition costs, of $27.0 million.

Dispositions

During the third quarter of 2022, we sold land in Richmond for a sales price of $23.3 million and recorded a gain on disposition of property of $9.4 million.

During the second quarter of 2022, we sold office buildings and land in Atlanta, Greensboro and Tampa for an aggregate sales price of $100.7 million (before closing credits to buyers of $1.1 million) and recorded aggregate gains on disposition of property of $50.0 million.

During the first quarter of 2022, we sold land in Tampa for a sales price of $9.6 million and recorded a gain on disposition of property of $4.1 million.

Impairments

Because we classified all of our assets in Pittsburgh as non-core, we recorded the following impairment charges in 2022:

•During the third quarter of 2022, we recorded an impairment charge of $1.5 million to lower the carrying amount of a land parcel in Pittsburgh to its estimated fair value less costs to sell; and

•During the second quarter of 2022, we recorded an impairment charge of $35.0 million to lower the carrying amount of EQT Plaza (including accrued straight-line rents receivable and deferred leasing costs) to its estimated fair value less costs to sell. EQT Plaza is a 616,000 square foot office building located in the heart of Pittsburgh’s CBD. EQT Corporation’s lease of 317,000 square feet at EQT Plaza is scheduled to expire in September 2024.

At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, our secured mortgage loans were collateralized by real estate assets with an undepreciated book value of ~~$728.1~~$742.1 million.

Our $750.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility is scheduled to mature in March 2025 and includes an accordion feature that allows for an additional ~~$550.0~~$400.0 million of borrowing capacity subject to additional lender commitments. Assuming no defaults have occurred, we have an option to extend the maturity for 2two additional six-month periods. ~~The~~During the second quarter of 2022, in connection with the modification of our $200.0 million term loan as discussed below, the interest rate aton our ~~current~~revolving credit ~~ratings is~~facility was converted from LIBOR plus 90 basis points to SOFR plus a related spread adjustment of 10 basis points and ~~the~~a borrowing spread of 85 basis points, based on current credit ratings. The annual facility fee is 20 basis points. The interest rate and facility fee are based on the higher of the publicly announced ratings from Moody’s Investors Service or Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services. We may be entitled to a temporary reduction in the interest rate of one basis point provided we meet certain sustainability goals with respect to the ongoing reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. There was $110.0 million and $170.0 million outstanding under our revolving credit facility at ~~both March 31,~~September 30, 2022 and ~~April 19, 2022.~~October 18, 2022, respectively. At both ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 and ~~April 19,~~October 18, 2022, we had $0.1 million of outstanding letters of credit, which reduces the availability on our revolving credit facility. As a result, the unused capacity of our revolving credit facility at ~~both March 31,~~September 30, 2022 and ~~April 19,~~October 18, 2022 was $639.9 ~~million.~~million and $579.9 million, respectively.

During the second quarter of 2022, we modified our $200.0 million unsecured bank term loan to extend the maturity date from November 2022 to May 2026. As part of this modification, we also obtained a $150.0 million delayed-draw term loan, which was drawn in its entirety in the third quarter of 2022, that is scheduled to mature in May 2027. The interest rate, based on current credit ratings, is SOFR plus a related spread adjustment of 10 basis points and a borrowing spread of 95 basis points. The interest rate is based on the higher of the publicly announced ratings from Moody’s Investors Service or Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services. We may be entitled to a temporary reduction in the interest rate of one basis point provided we meet certain sustainability goals with respect to the ongoing reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. We incurred $2.7 million of debt issuance costs, which are being amortized along with certain existing unamortized debt issuance costs over the remaining term of our modified term loan.

See Note 15 for a discussion of financing activities subsequent to September 30, 2022.

We are currently in compliance with financial covenants with respect to our consolidated debt.

We have considered our short-term liquidity needs within one year from ~~April 26,~~October 25, 2022 (the date of issuance of the quarterly financial statements) and the adequacy of our estimated cash flows from operating activities and other available financing sources to meet these needs. In particular, we have considered our scheduled debt maturities during such one-year period, including the $200 million unsecured bank term loan that is scheduled to mature in November 2022 and the $250 million principal amount of unsecured notes that are scheduled to mature in January 2023. We have concluded it is probable we will meet these short-term liquidity requirements through a combination of the following:

•available cash and cash equivalents;

•cash flows from operating activities;

•issuance of debt securities by the Operating Partnership;

•issuance of secured debt;

•bank term loans;

•borrowings under our revolving credit facility;

•issuance of equity securities by the Company or the Operating Partnership; and

•the disposition of non-core assets.

7. Derivative Financial Instruments

We previously entered into floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps through January 2022 with respect to an aggregate of ~~$50~~$50.0 million LIBOR-based borrowings. These swaps effectively fixed the underlying one month LIBOR rate at a weighted average rate of 1.693%. During the first quarter of 2022, these interest rate swaps expired.

Our interest rate swaps were designated as and accounted for as cash flow hedges with changes in fair value recorded in other comprehensive income/(loss) each reporting period. We had no collateral requirements related to our interest rate swaps.

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) related to derivatives are reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on our debt. During the period from ~~April~~October 1, 2022 through ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2023, we estimate that $0.3 million will be reclassified as a net decrease to interest expense.

The following table sets forth the fair value of our derivatives:

9. Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following summarizes the levels of inputs that we use to measure fair value.

Level 1. Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Our Level 1 asset is our investment in marketable securities that we use to pay benefits under our non-qualified deferred compensation plan. Our Level 1 liability is our non-qualified deferred compensation obligation. The Company’s Level 1 noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership relate to the ownership of Common Units by various individuals and entities other than the Company.

Level 2. Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities.

Our Level 2 assets include the fair value of our mortgages and notes receivable. Our Level 2 liabilities include the fair value of our mortgages and notes payable and any interest rate swaps.

The fair value of mortgages and notes receivable and mortgages and notes payable is estimated by the income approach utilizing contractual cash flows and market-based interest rates to approximate the price that would be paid in an orderly transaction between market participants. The fair value of any interest rate swaps is determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts and the discounted expected variable cash payments. The variable cash payments of interest rate swaps are based on the expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observed market interest rate curves. In addition, credit valuation adjustments are considered in the fair values to account for potential nonperformance risk, but were concluded to not be significant inputs to the calculation for the periods presented.

Level 3. Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Our Level 3 assets include any real estate assets recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis as a result of our quarterly impairment analysis, which are valued using unobservable local and national industry market data such as comparable sales, appraisals, brokers’ opinions of value and/or the terms of definitive sales contracts. Significant increases or decreases in any valuation inputs in isolation would result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.

(1) Amounts are not recorded at fair value on our Consolidated Balance Sheets at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

The Level 3 impaired real estate assets measured at a fair value of $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2022 included a land parcel in Pittsburgh. This impairment resulted from the changes in our assumptions about the use of the asset as a result of our plan to exit the Pittsburgh market and was calculated using broker opinions of value, as observable inputs were not available.

In the second quarter of 2022, Level 3 impaired real estate assets, which measured at a fair value of $57.4 million, resulted from the shortened hold period assumptions for EQT Plaza as a result of our plan to exit the Pittsburgh market. The estimated fair value was calculated using broker opinions of value, which incorporate an income approach, as observable inputs were not available. Key assumptions used in the impairment calculation were estimated selling costs of 3.5% (including seller’s share of anticipated transfer taxes), the high end of an estimated discount rate ranging from 13.2% to 16.2% and an estimated terminal capitalization rate of 8.0%.

14. Segment Information

The following tables summarize the rental and other revenues and net operating income, the primary industry property-level performance metric used by our chief operating decision maker and which is defined as rental and other revenues less rental property and other expenses, for each of our reportable segments. Our segment information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 has been retrospectively revised from previously reported amounts to reflect a change in our reportable segments as a result of our plan to exit the Pittsburgh market.

15. Subsequent Events

On ~~April~~October 11, 2022, we obtained a $200.0 million, two-year unsecured bank term loan that is scheduled to mature in October 2024 and reduces the existing accordion feature on our $750.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility from $400.0 million to $200.0 million. Assuming no defaults have occurred, we have an option to extend the maturity for one additional year. The interest rate, based on current credit ratings, is SOFR plus a related spread adjustment of 10 basis points and a borrowing spread of 95 basis points. The interest rate is based on the higher of the publicly announced ratings from Moody’s Investors Service or Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services. We may be entitled to a temporary reduction in the interest rate of one basis point provided we meet certain sustainability goals with respect to the ongoing reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.

On October 17, 2022, we used the additional $200.0 million of borrowings, together with available cash and borrowings under our revolving credit facility, to prepay without penalty $250.0 million principal amount of 3.625% unsecured notes that were scheduled to mature in January 2023.

On October 20, 2022, the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.50 per share of Common Stock, which is payable on ~~June 14,~~December 13, 2022 to stockholders of record as of ~~May 23,~~November 21, 2022.

Executive Summary

We are in the work-placemaking business. We believe that in creating environments and experiences where the best and brightest can achieve together what they cannot apart, we deliver greater value to our customers, their teammates and, in turn, our stockholders. Our simple and straight-forward strategy is to own and manage high-quality workplaces in the BBDs within our footprint, maintain a strong balance sheet to be opportunistic throughout economic cycles, employ a talented and dedicated team and communicate transparently with all stakeholders. We focus on owning and managing buildings in the most dynamic and vibrant BBDs. BBDs are highly-energized and amenitized workplace locations that enhance our customers’ ability to attract and retain talent. They are both urban and suburban. Providing the most talent-supportive workplace options in these environments is core to our work-placemaking strategy.

Our investment strategy is to generate attractive and sustainable returns over the long term for our stockholders by developing, acquiring and owning a portfolio of high-quality, differentiated office buildings in the BBDs of our core markets. A core component of this strategy is to continuously strengthen the financial and operational performance, resiliency and long-term growth prospects of our existing in-service portfolio and recycle those properties that no longer meet our criteria.

Our operating results depend heavily on successfully leasing and operating the office space in our portfolio. Economic growth and office employment levels in our core markets are important factors, among others, in predicting our future operating results. Since March 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has also had a significant impact on the U.S. economy. ~~It is very difficult to predict when, if and to what extent economic activity will return to pre-COVID-19 levels. The COVID-19 pandemic did impact our first quarter of 2022 financial results.~~ While all buildings and parking facilities have remained open for business, the usage of our assets has continued to remain ~~significantly~~ lower than pre-pandemic levels. As a result, compared to pre-pandemic levels, parking and parking-related revenues have continued to be low, largely offsetting reduced operating expenses, net of expense recoveries. Although difficult to estimate, we currently expect usage will gradually increase throughout the remainder of 2022. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our current expectations are set forth under “Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Revenues

The key components affecting our rental and other revenues are average occupancy, rental rates, cost recovery income, new developments placed in service, acquisitions and dispositions. Average occupancy generally increases during times of improving economic growth, as our ability to lease space outpaces vacancies that occur upon the expirations of existing leases. Average occupancy generally declines during times of slower or negative economic growth, when new vacancies tend to outpace our ability to lease space. Average occupancy could also be negatively impacted by potential changes in customer behavior, such as the continued social acceptance, desirability and perceived economic benefits of work-from-home arrangements, resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, which could materially and negatively impact the future demand for office space, resulting in slower overall leasing. Asset acquisitions, dispositions and new developments placed in service also directly impact our rental revenues and could impact our average occupancy, depending upon the occupancy rate of the properties that are acquired, sold or placed in service. A further indicator of the predictability of future revenues is the expected lease expirations of our portfolio. As a result, in addition to seeking to increase our average occupancy by leasing current vacant space, we also concentrate our leasing efforts on renewing existing leases prior to expiration. For more information regarding our lease expirations, see “Properties - Lease Expirations” in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Occupancy in our office portfolio decreased from 91.2% at December 31, 2021 to ~~91.1%~~90.7% at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022. We expect average occupancy for our office portfolio to be approximately 90.5% to ~~91.5%~~91.0% for the remainder of 2022.

Table of Contents

Whether or not our rental revenue tracks average occupancy proportionally depends upon whether GAAP rents under signed new and renewal leases are higher or lower than the GAAP rents under expiring leases. Annualized rental revenues from second generation leases expiring during any particular year are typically less than 15% of our total annual rental revenues. The following table sets forth information regarding second generation office leases signed during the ~~first~~third quarter of 2022 (we define second generation office leases as leases with new customers and renewals of existing customers in office space that has been previously occupied under our ownership and leases with respect to vacant space in acquired buildings):

__________

(1) Weighted average per rentable square foot on an annual basis over the lease term.

Annual combined GAAP rents for new and renewal leases signed in the ~~first~~third quarter were ~~$29.74~~$34.46 per rentable square foot, ~~14.9%~~13.4% higher compared to previous leases in the same office spaces.

We strive to maintain a diverse, stable and creditworthy customer base. We have an internal guideline whereby customers that account for more than 3% of our annualized revenues are periodically reviewed with the Company’s Board of Directors. As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, ~~the Federal Government (4.0%),~~ Bank of America ~~(3.6%~~(3.8%) and Asurion ~~(3.2%~~(3.7%) accounted for more than 3% of our annualized cash revenues.

Expenses

Our expenses primarily consist of rental property expenses, depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses and interest expense. From time to time, expenses also include impairments of real estate assets. Rental property expenses are expenses associated with our ownership and operation of rental properties and include expenses that vary somewhat proportionately to occupancy and usage levels, such as janitorial services and utilities, and expenses that do not vary based on occupancy, such as property taxes and insurance. Depreciation and amortization is a non-cash expense associated with the ownership of real property and generally remains relatively consistent each year, unless we buy, place in service or sell assets, since our properties and related building and tenant improvement assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over fixed lives. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of management and employee salaries and benefits, corporate overhead and short and long-term incentive compensation.

Net Operating Income

Whether or not we record increasing net operating income (“NOI”) in our same property portfolio typically depends upon our ability to garner higher rental revenues, whether from higher average occupancy, higher GAAP rents per rentable square foot or higher cost recovery income, that exceed any corresponding growth in operating expenses. Same property NOI was ~~$3.5~~$0.6 million, or ~~2.9%~~0.5%, higher in the ~~first~~third quarter of 2022 as compared to 2021 due to an increase of ~~$5.8~~$7.1 million in same property revenues offset by an increase of ~~$2.3~~$6.4 million in same property expenses. We expect same property NOI to be relatively consistent for the remainder of 2022 as compared to 2021 as higher anticipated same property revenues are expected to approximate the increase in same property expenses from the anticipated gradual increase in usage of our assets. We expect same property revenues to be higher due to higher GAAP rents per rentable square foot, higher average occupancy and higher cost recovery and parking income.

In addition to the effect of same property NOI, whether or not NOI increases typically depends upon whether the NOI from our acquired properties and development properties placed in service exceeds the NOI from property dispositions. NOI was ~~$17.3~~$5.7 million, or ~~13.6%~~4.3%, higher in the ~~first~~third quarter of 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily due to development properties placed in service, the acquisition of real estate assets from Preferred Apartment Communities, Inc. (“PAC”) in the third quarter of 2021, ~~development properties placed~~the acquisition of SIX50 at Legacy Union in ~~service~~the third quarter of 2022 and higher same property NOI, partially offset by NOI lost from property dispositions. ~~We expect NOI to be higher for~~

3035

Table of Contents

the remainder of 2022 as compared to 2021 due to the acquisitions of real estate assets from PAC and development properties placed in service, partially offset by NOI lost from property dispositions and lower same property NOI.

Cash Flows

In calculating net cash related to operating activities, depreciation and amortization, which are non-cash expenses, are added back to net income. We have historically generated a positive amount of cash from operating activities. From period to period, cash flow from operations depends primarily upon changes in our net income, as discussed more fully below under “Results of Operations,” changes in receivables and payables and net additions or decreases in our overall portfolio.

Net cash related to investing activities generally relates to capitalized costs incurred for leasing and major building improvements and our acquisition, development, disposition and joint venture activity. During periods of significant net acquisition and/or development activity, our cash used in such investing activities will generally exceed cash provided by investing activities, which typically consists of cash received upon the sale of properties and distributions from our joint ventures.

Net cash related to financing activities generally relates to distributions, incurrence and repayment of debt, and issuances, repurchases or redemptions of Common Stock, Common Units and Preferred Stock. We use a significant amount of our cash to fund distributions. Whether or not we have increases in the outstanding balances of debt during a period depends generally upon the net effect of our acquisition, disposition, development and joint venture activity. We generally use our revolving credit facility for daily working capital purposes, which means that during any given period, in order to minimize interest expense, we may record significant repayments and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

For a discussion regarding dividends and distributions, see “Liquidity and Capital Resources - Dividends and Distributions.”

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We continue to maintain a conservative and flexible balance sheet and believe we have ample liquidity to fund our operations and growth prospects. As of ~~April 19,~~October 18, 2022, we had approximately ~~$26.0~~$32.0 million of available cash and ~~$110.0~~$170.0 million drawn on our $750.0 million revolving credit facility, which is scheduled to mature in March ~~2025. Assuming~~2026, assuming we ~~are in compliance with~~exercise our ~~covenants, we have an~~ option to extend the maturity date for two additional six-month periods. At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, our leverage ratio, as measured by the ratio of our mortgages and notes payable and outstanding preferred stock to the undepreciated book value of our assets, was ~~39.7%~~40.4%, and there were ~~107.7~~107.6 million diluted shares of Common Stock outstanding.

Rental and other revenues are our principal source of funds to meet our short-term liquidity requirements. Other sources of funds for short-term liquidity needs include available working capital and borrowings under our revolving credit facility, which had ~~$639.9~~$579.9 million of availability at ~~April 19,~~October 18, 2022. Our short-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of operating expenses, interest and principal amortization on our debt, distributions and capital expenditures, including building improvement costs, tenant improvement costs and lease commissions. Building improvements are capital costs to maintain or enhance existing buildings not typically related to a specific customer. Tenant improvements are the costs required to customize space for the specific needs of customers. We anticipate that our available cash and cash equivalents and cash provided by operating activities and planned financing activities, including borrowings under our revolving credit facility, will be adequate to meet our short-term liquidity requirements. We use our revolving credit facility for working capital purposes and for the short-term funding of our development and acquisition activity and, in certain instances, the repayment of other debt. Continued ability to borrow under the revolving credit facility allows us to quickly capitalize on strategic opportunities at short-term interest rates.

We generally believe existing cash and rental and other revenues will continue to be sufficient to fund short-term liquidity needs such as funding operating and general and administrative expenses, paying interest expense, maintaining our existing quarterly dividend and funding existing portfolio capital expenditures, including building improvement costs, tenant improvement costs and lease commissions.

Our long-term liquidity uses generally consist of the retirement or refinancing of debt upon maturity, funding of building improvements, new building developments and land infrastructure projects and funding acquisitions of buildings and development land. The expected future capital expenditures, which includes our joint venture partners' share, for started and/or committed new consolidated and unconsolidated development projects were approximately $150 million at March 31, 2022. Additionally, we may, from time to time, retire outstanding equity and/or debt securities through redemptions, open market repurchases, privately negotiated acquisitions or otherwise.

During~~October 2025, assuming we exercise our option to extend the remainder of 2022, we and our joint venture partners forecast funding approximately $53 million of our $283 million consolidated and unconsolidated development pipeline, which was over 45% funded as of March 31, 2022.maturity date for one additional year. We generally believe we will be able to satisfy these obligations with existing cash, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, new bank term loans, issuance of other unsecured debt, mortgage debt and/or proceeds from the sale of additional non-core assets.

Investment Activity

As noted above, a key tenet of our strategic plan is to continuously upgrade the quality of our office portfolio through acquisitions, dispositions and development. We generally seek to acquire and develop office buildings that improve the average quality of our overall portfolio and deliver consistent and sustainable value for our stockholders over the long-term. Whether or not an asset acquisition or new development results in higher per share net income or funds from operations (“FFO”) in any given period depends upon a number of factors, including whether the NOI for any such period exceeds the actual cost of capital used to finance the acquisition or development. Additionally, given the length of construction cycles, development projects are not placed in service until, in some cases, several years after commencement. Sales of non-core assets could result in lower per share net income or FFO in any given period in the event the return on the resulting use of proceeds does not exceed the capitalization rate on the sold properties.

During the third quarter of 2022, we entered the Dallas market through the formation of two joint ventures with Granite Properties to develop the following Class AA assets:

Project

BBD

Own %

Rentable Square Feet

Granite Park Six

Frisco/Plano

50%

422,000

23Springs

Uptown

50%

642,000

In connection with the formation, we agreed to contribute our 50.0% share of the equity required to fund the development projects, $55.7 million of which was funded on the formation date.

We plan to fund our entry into the Dallas market, including our share of the equity required to construct Granite Park Six and 23Springs, by exiting the Pittsburgh market. Our Pittsburgh assets, which consist of 2,155,000 square feet of office that was 90.3% occupied as of September 30, 2022, represent approximately 6% of our overall net operating income. We can provide no assurances, however, that we will dispose of any of our assets in Pittsburgh on favorable terms, or at all, because the dispositions are subject to the negotiation and execution of definitive and binding purchase and sale agreements and would then be subject to the buyers’ completion of satisfactory due diligence and other customary closing conditions. There is no pre-determined timetable for our Pittsburgh market exit.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 and 2021

Rental and Other Revenues

Rental and other revenues were ~~$22.6~~$11.5 million, or ~~12.3%~~5.9%, higher in the ~~first~~third quarter of 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily due to the development properties placed in service, higher same property revenues, the acquisition of real estate assets from PAC and the acquisition of SIX50 at Legacy Union, which increased rental and other revenues by $7.2 million, $7.1 million and $6.4 million, respectively. Same property rental and other revenues were higher primarily due to higher average GAAP rents per rentable square foot, cost recoveries, parking income and termination fees. These increases were partially offset by lost revenue of $9.3 million from property dispositions.

Operating Expenses

Rental property and other expenses were $5.8 million, or 9.5%, higher in the third quarter of 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily due to higher same property operating expenses, the acquisition of real estate assets from PAC and the acquisition of SIX50 at Legacy Union and development properties placed in service, which increased operating expenses by $6.4 million, $1.9 million and $1.2 million, respectively. Same property operating expenses were higher primarily due to higher property taxes, utilities, contract services and repairs and maintenance. These increases were partially offset by a $3.6 million decrease in operating expenses from property dispositions.

Depreciation and amortization was $6.5 million, or 9.8%, higher in the third quarter of 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily due to higher same property lease related depreciation and amortization, the acquisition of real estate assets from PAC and the acquisition of SIX50 at Legacy Union and development properties placed in service, partially offset by property dispositions.

Because we classified all of our assets in Pittsburgh as non-core, we recorded an impairment charge of $1.5 million on a land parcel in Pittsburgh in the third quarter of 2022. We recorded no such impairment in 2021.

General and administrative expenses were $0.8 million, or 7.4%, lower in the third quarter of 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily due to lower long-term equity incentive compensation, partially offset by higher salaries, benefits and office rent.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $4.4 million, or 20.0%, higher in the third quarter of 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily due to higher average debt balances, higher average interest rates and lower capitalized interest.

Other Income

Other income was $0.3 million lower in the third quarter of 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily due to losses on deferred compensation plan investments (which is fully offset by a corresponding decrease in general and administrative expenses).

Gains on Disposition of Property

Gains on disposition of property were $29.2 million lower in the third quarter of 2022 as compared to 2021.

Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Affiliates

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates was $0.1 million lower in the third quarter of 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily due to higher property taxes.

Earnings Per Common Share - Diluted

Diluted earnings per common share was $0.33 lower in the third quarter of 2022 as compared to 2021 due to a decrease in net income for the reasons discussed above.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 and 2021

Rental and Other Revenues

Rental and other revenues were $52.4 million, or 9.3%, higher in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily due to the acquisition of real estate assets from PAC, the acquisition of SIX50 at Legacy Union, development properties placed in service and higher same property revenues, which increased rental and other revenues by ~~$16.6~~$39.0 million, ~~$8.6~~$23.5 million and ~~$5.8~~$16.1 million, respectively. Same property rental and other revenues were higher primarily due to higher average GAAP rents per rentable square foot, higher average occupancy and higher cost ~~recovery~~recoveries, parking income and ~~parking income.~~termination fees, partially offset by higher credit losses. These increases were partially offset by lost revenue of ~~$8.5~~$26.6 million from property dispositions. ~~We expect rental and other revenues to be higher for the remainder of 2022 as compared to 2021 for similar reasons.~~

Operating Expenses

Rental property and other expenses were ~~$5.2~~$17.1 million, or ~~9.3%~~9.9%, higher in the ~~first quarter~~nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily due to higher same property operating expenses, the acquisition of real estate assets from PAC and the acquisition of SIX50 at Legacy Union and development properties placed in service, which increased operating expenses by $12.4 million, $10.5 million and $3.7 million, respectively. Same property operating expenses were higher primarily due to higher contract services, utilities, property taxes and repairs and maintenance. These increases were partially offset by a $9.6 million decrease in operating expenses from property dispositions.

Depreciation and amortization was $23.0 million, or 12.2%, higher in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily due to the acquisition of real estate assets from PAC ~~higher same property operating expenses~~ and development properties placed in service, which increased operating expenses by $4.3 million, $2.3 million and $1.3 million, respectively. Same property operating expenses were higher primarily due to higher contract services, utilities and repairs and maintenance. These increases were partially offset by a $3.0 million decrease in operating expenses from property dispositions. We expect rental property and other expenses to be higher for the remainder of 2022 as compared to 2021 for similar reasons.

~~Depreciation and amortization was $8.7 million, or 14.3%, higher in the first quarter of 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily due to~~ the acquisition of ~~real estate assets from PAC,~~SIX50 at Legacy Union, development properties placed in service and higher same property lease related depreciation and amortization, partially offset by fully amortized acquisition-related intangible assets and property dispositions.

Because we classified all of our assets in Pittsburgh as non-core, we recorded an impairment charge of $36.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily to lower the carrying amount of EQT Plaza to its estimated fair value less costs to sell. EQT Plaza is a 616,000 square foot office building located in the heart of Pittsburgh’s CBD. EQT Corporation’s lease of 317,000 square feet at EQT Plaza is scheduled to expire in September 2024. There are no assurances that EQT Corporation will renew all or any of its space upon expiration of its current lease. We ~~expect depreciation and amortization to be higher for the remainder of 2022 as compared to 2021 for similar reasons.~~recorded no such impairment in 2021.

General and administrative expenses were ~~$3.6~~$2.3 million, or ~~36.2%~~7.6%, higher in the ~~first quarter of~~nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily due to higher ~~long-term equity incentive compensation,~~ salaries, benefits and office rent. We expect general and administrative expenses to be lower for the remainder of 2022 as compared to 2021 due to lower incentive compensation, partially offset by higher salaries, benefits and office rent. First quarter general and administrative expenses are typically higher than in subsequent quarters due to higher long-term equity incentive compensation recognized for certain employees who meet the age and service eligibility requirements under our retirement plan. Long-term equity incentive compensation awards are typically issued during the first quarter of each year.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was ~~$4.6~~$15.1 million, or ~~23.4%~~24.8%, higher in the ~~first quarter of~~nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily due to higher average debt balances, ~~and lower capitalized interest. We expect interest expense to be higher for the remainder of 2022 as compared to 2021 due to~~ higher average interest rates and lower capitalized interest.

Other Income

Other income was ~~$0.1~~$0.4 million ~~higher~~lower in the ~~first quarter of~~nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily due to losses on deferred compensation plan investments (which is fully offset by a ~~loss~~corresponding decrease in general and administrative expenses), partially offset by losses on debt extinguishment in 2021.

Gains on Disposition of Property

Gains on disposition of property were ~~$14.8~~$16.8 million lower in the ~~first quarter of~~nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to ~~2021 due to the net effect of the disposition activity in such periods.~~2021.

Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Affiliates

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates was ~~$0.3~~$0.5 million ~~or 52.9%,~~ lower in the ~~first quarter of~~nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily due to the acquisition of our joint venture partner’s 75.0% interest in our Highwoods DLF Forum, LLC joint venture ~~(the “Forum”)~~ in the first quarter of ~~2021.~~2021 and higher property taxes.

Statements of Cash Flows

We report and analyze our cash flows based on operating activities, investing activities and financing activities. The following table sets forth the changes in the Company’s cash flows (in thousands):


		Three Months Ended March 31,							Nine Months Ended September 30,

The change in net cash provided by operating activities in the ~~first quarter of~~nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to 2021 was primarily due to changes in operating assets and liabilities and property dispositions, partially offset by higher net cash from the operations of acquired real estate assets from PAC, same properties and development properties placed in service. We expect net cash related to operating activities to be higher for the remainder of 2022 as compared to 2021 due to higher net cash from the operations of acquired real estate assets from PAC, the acquisition of SIX50 at Legacy Union, same properties and development properties placed in service, partially offset by property dispositions.

The change in net cash used in investing activities in the ~~first quarter of~~nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to 2021 was primarily due to ~~the~~lower acquisition ~~of our joint venture partner’s 75.0% interest~~activity and investments in ~~the Forum~~development in-process in ~~2021,~~2022, partially offset by ~~greater~~investments in the 2827 Peachtree, Granite Park Six and 23Springs joint ventures in 2022, lower net proceeds from disposition activity in 2021 and our investment in the 2827 Peachtree joint venture in 2022. We expect uses of cash for investing activities for the remainder of 2022 to be primarily driven by whether or not we acquire and commence development of additional office buildings in the BBDs of our markets. Additionally, as of March 31, 2022, we have approximately $150 million left to fund of our previously-announced development activity in 2022 and ~~future years. We expect these uses of cash for investing activities will be partially offset by proceeds from property dispositions for the remainder of~~higher investments in tenant and building improvements in 2022.

The change in net cash provided by/(used inin) financing activities in the ~~first quarter of~~nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to 2021 was primarily due to net debt borrowings in 2022. Assuming the net effect of our acquisition, disposition and development activity in 2022 results in an increase to our assets, we would expect outstanding debt and/or Common Stock balances to increase.

Investment Activity

In the normal course of business, we regularly evaluate potential acquisitions. As a result, from time to time, we may have one or more potential acquisitions under consideration that are in varying stages of evaluation, negotiation or due diligence, including potential acquisitions that are subject to non-binding letters of intent or enforceable contracts. Consummation of any transaction is subject to a number of contingencies, including the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. No assurances can be provided that we will acquire any properties in the future. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors - Risks Related to our Capital Recycling Activity - Recent and future acquisitions and development properties may fail to perform in accordance with our expectations and may require renovation and development costs exceeding our estimates” in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

~~- Dispositions~~During the third quarter of 2022, we acquired SIX50 at Legacy Union, a 367,000 square foot trophy office building in Charlotte’s Uptown CBD submarket, for a net purchase price of $198.0 million. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at relative fair value as determined by management, with the assistance of third party specialists, based on information available at the acquisition date and on current assumptions as to future operations.

During the ~~first~~third quarter of 2022, we sold land in ~~Tampa~~Richmond for a sales price of ~~$9.6~~$23.3 million and recorded a gain on disposition of property of ~~$4.1~~$9.4 million.

~~- In-Process Development~~

As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, we were developing ~~0.4~~1.4 million rentable square feet of office properties. The following table summarizes these announced and in-process office developments:

Financing Activity

During 2020, we entered into separate equity distribution agreements with each of Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., BTIG, LLC, Capital One Securities, Inc., Fifth Third Securities, Inc., Jefferies LLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Regions Securities LLC and SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc. Under the terms of the equity distribution agreements, the Company may offer and sell up to $300.0 million in aggregate gross sales price of shares of Common Stock from time to time through such firms, acting as agents of the Company or as principals. Sales of the shares, if any, may be made by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices or as otherwise agreed with any of such firms (which may include block trades). ~~During the first quarter of 2022, the Company issued 130,011~~There were no shares of Common Stock at an average gross sales price of $46.50 per share and received net proceeds, after sales commissions, of $6.0 million. We paid an aggregate of $0.1 million in sales commissions to SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc. (which now operatesissued under ~~the trade name “Truist Securities, Inc.”)~~these agreements during the ~~first~~third quarter of 2022.

There was $110.0 million and $170.0 million outstanding under our revolving credit facility at ~~both March 31,~~September 30, 2022 and ~~April 19, 2022.~~October 18, 2022, respectively. At both ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 and ~~April 19,~~October 18, 2022, we had $0.1 million of outstanding letters of credit, which reduces the availability on our revolving credit facility.

~~We previously entered into floating-to-fixed~~During the second quarter of 2022, we modified our $200.0 million unsecured bank term loan to extend the maturity date from November 2022 to May 2026. As part of this modification, we also obtained a $150.0 million delayed-draw term loan, which was drawn in its entirety in the third quarter of 2022, that is scheduled to mature in May 2027. The interest rate, ~~swaps through January 2022~~based on current credit ratings, is SOFR plus a related spread adjustment of 10 basis points and a borrowing spread of 95 basis points. The interest rate is based on the higher of the publicly announced ratings from Moody’s Investors Service or Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services. We may be entitled to a temporary reduction in the interest rate of one basis point provided we meet certain sustainability goals with respect to the ongoing reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. We incurred $2.7 million of debt issuance costs, which are being amortized along with certain existing unamortized debt issuance costs over the remaining term of our modified term loan.

On October 11, 2022, we obtained a $200.0 million, two-year unsecured bank term loan that is scheduled to mature in October 2024 and reduces the existing accordion feature on our $750.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility from $400.0 million to $200.0 million.

During~~one basis point provided we meet certain sustainability goals with respect to the ~~first quarter~~ongoing reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.

On October 17, 2022, ~~these interest rate swaps expired.~~we used the additional $200.0 million of borrowings, together with available cash and borrowings under our revolving credit facility, to prepay without penalty $250.0 million principal amount of 3.625% unsecured notes that were scheduled to mature in January 2023.

We are currently in compliance with financial covenants and other requirements with respect to our consolidated debt. Although we expect to remain in compliance with these covenants and ratios for at least the next year, depending upon our future operating performance, property and financing transactions and general economic conditions, we cannot assure you that we will continue to be in compliance.

Our revolving credit facility and bank term loans require us to comply with customary operating covenants and various financial requirements. Upon an event of default on our revolving credit facility, the lenders having at least 51.0% of the total commitments under our revolving credit facility can accelerate all borrowings then outstanding, and we could be prohibited from borrowing any further amounts under our revolving credit facility, which would adversely affect our ability to fund our operations. In addition, certain of our unsecured debt agreements contain cross-default provisions giving the unsecured lenders the right to declare a default if we are in default under more than $35.0 million with respect to other loans in some circumstances.

The indenture that governs the Operating Partnership’s outstanding notes requires us to comply with customary operating covenants and various financial ratios. The trustee or the holders of at least 25.0% in principal amount of any series of notes can accelerate the principal amount of such series upon written notice of a default that remains uncured after 60 days.

We may not be able to repay, refinance or extend any or all of our debt at maturity or upon any acceleration. If we refinance any ~~refinancing is done~~debt at higher interest rates, the increased interest expense could adversely affect our cash flow and ability to pay distributions. ~~Any such refinancing could~~We may also ~~impose~~be subject to tighter financial ratios and other covenants that restrict our ability to take actions that could otherwise be in our best interest, such as funding new development activity, making opportunistic acquisitions, repurchasing our securities or paying distributions.

Dividends and Distributions

To maintain its qualification as a REIT, the Company must pay dividends to stockholders that are at least 90.0% of its annual REIT taxable income, excluding net capital gains. The partnership agreement requires the Operating Partnership to distribute at least enough cash for the Company to be able to pay such dividends. The Company’s REIT taxable income, as determined by the federal tax laws, does not equal its net income under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In addition, although capital gains are not required to be distributed to maintain REIT status, capital gains, if any, are subject to federal and state income tax unless such gains are distributed to stockholders.

Cash dividends and distributions reduce the amount of cash that would otherwise be available for other business purposes, including funding debt maturities, reducing debt or future growth initiatives. The amount of future distributions that will be made is at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors. For a discussion of the factors that will affect such cash flows and, accordingly, influence the decisions of the Company’s Board of Directors regarding dividends and distributions, see “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources - Dividends and Distributions” in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

On October 20, 2022, the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.50 per share of Common Stock, which is payable on December 13, 2022 to stockholders of record as of November 21, 2022.

We anticipate that our available cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operating activities and other available financing sources, including the issuance of debt securities by the Operating Partnership, the issuance of secured debt, bank

~~Table of Contents~~

term loans, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, the issuance of equity securities by the Company or the Operating Partnership and the disposition of non-core assets, will be adequate to meet our short-term liquidity requirements including the $200.0 million unsecured bank term loan that is scheduled to mature in November 2022 and the $250.0 million principal amount of unsecured notes that are scheduled to mature in January 2023. . We generally believe existing cash and rental and other revenues will continue to be sufficient to fund operating and general and administrative expenses, interest expense, our existing quarterly dividend and existing portfolio capital expenditures, including building improvement costs, tenant improvement costs and lease commissions.

We had ~~$18.7~~$23.1 million of cash and cash equivalents as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022. The unused capacity of our revolving credit facility at ~~both March 31,~~September 30, 2022 and ~~April 19,~~October 18, 2022 was $639.9 million and $579.9 million, respectively, excluding an accordion feature that allows for an additional ~~$550.0~~$400.0 million and $200.0 million, respectively, of borrowing capacity subject to additional lender commitments.

We have a currently effective automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC pursuant to which, at any time and from time to time, in one or more offerings on an as-needed basis, the Company may sell an indefinite amount of common stock, preferred stock and depositary shares and the Operating Partnership may sell an indefinite amount of debt securities, subject to our ability to effect offerings on satisfactory terms based on prevailing market conditions.

The Company from time to time enters into equity distribution agreements with a variety of firms pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell shares of common stock from time to time through such firms, acting as agents of the Company or as principals. Sales of the shares, if any, may be made by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions on the NYSE or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices or as otherwise agreed with any of such firms (which may include block trades).

In April 2021, we announced a plan to fund the acquisition of real estate assets from PAC by selling $500 million to $600 million of non-core assets by mid-2022. From the date of that announcement through March 31, 2022, we have sold $363 million of assets no longer considered to be core assets due to location, age, quality and/or overall strategic fit. We can make no assurance, however, that we will sell any additional non-core assets or, if we do, what the timing or terms of any such sale will be.

Critical Accounting Estimates

There were no changes made by management to the critical accounting policies in the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022. For a description of our critical accounting estimates, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Critical Accounting Estimates” in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Non-GAAP Information

The Company believes that FFO, FFO available for common stockholders and FFO available for common stockholders per share are beneficial to management and investors and are important indicators of the performance of any equity REIT. Because these FFO calculations exclude such factors as depreciation, amortization and impairments of real estate assets and gains or losses from sales of operating real estate assets, which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates, they facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and between other REITs. Management believes that historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, management believes the use of FFO, FFO available for common stockholders and FFO available for common stockholders per share, together with the required GAAP presentations, provides a more complete understanding of the Company’s performance relative to its competitors and a more informed and appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing and investing activities.

FFO, FFO available for common stockholders and FFO available for common stockholders per share are non-GAAP financial measures and therefore do not represent net income or net income per share as defined by GAAP. Net income and net income per share as defined by GAAP are the most relevant measures in determining the Company’s operating performance because these FFO measures include adjustments that investors may deem subjective, such as adding back expenses such as depreciation, amortization and impairments. Furthermore, FFO available for common stockholders per share does not depict the amount that accrues directly to the stockholders’ benefit. Accordingly, FFO, FFO available for common stockholders and FFO available for common stockholders per share should never be considered as alternatives to net income, net income available for

~~Table of Contents~~

common stockholders, or net income available for common stockholders per share as indicators of the Company’s operating performance.

The Company’s presentation of FFO is consistent with FFO as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, which is calculated as follows:

•Net income/(loss) computed in accordance with GAAP;

•Less net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated affiliates;

•Plus depreciation and amortization of depreciable operating properties;

•Less gains, or plus losses, from sales of depreciable operating properties, plus impairments on depreciable operating properties and excluding items that are classified as extraordinary items under GAAP;

•Plus or minus our share of adjustments, including depreciation and amortization of depreciable operating properties, for unconsolidated joint venture investments (to reflect funds from operations on the same basis); and

•Plus or minus adjustments for depreciation and amortization and gains/(losses) on sales of depreciable operating properties, plus impairments on depreciable operating properties, and noncontrolling interests in consolidated affiliates related to discontinued operations.

In calculating FFO, the Company includes net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership, which the Company believes is consistent with standard industry practice for REITs that operate through an UPREIT structure. The Company believes that it is important to present FFO on an as-converted basis since all of the Common Units not owned by the Company are redeemable on a one-for-one basis for shares of its Common Stock.

In addition, the Company believes NOI and same property NOI are useful supplemental measures of the Company’s property operating performance because such metrics provide a performance measure of the revenues and expenses directly involved in owning real estate assets and a perspective not immediately apparent from net income or FFO. The Company defines NOI as rental and other revenues less rental property and other expenses. The Company defines cash NOI as NOI less lease termination fees, straight-line rent, amortization of lease incentives and amortization of acquired above and below market leases. Other REITs may use different methodologies to calculate NOI, same property NOI and cash NOI.

As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, our same property portfolio consisted of ~~153~~148 in-service properties encompassing ~~24.9~~24.4 million rentable square feet that were wholly owned during the entirety of the periods presented (from January 1, 2021 to ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022).

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The effects of potential changes in interest rates are discussed below. Our market risk discussion includes “forward-looking statements” and represents an estimate of possible changes in fair value or future earnings that would occur assuming hypothetical future movements in interest rates. Actual future results may differ materially from those presented. See “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources” and the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of our accounting policies and other information related to these financial instruments.

We borrow funds at a combination of fixed and variable rates. Borrowings under our revolving credit facility and bank term loans bear interest at variable rates. Our long-term debt, which consists of secured and unsecured long-term financings, typically bears interest at fixed rates. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit generally the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, from time to time we enter into interest rate hedge contracts such as collars, swaps, caps and treasury lock agreements in order to mitigate our interest rate risk with respect to existing and prospective debt instruments. We generally do not hold or issue these derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes.

At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, we had ~~$2,532.5~~$2,529.3 million principal amount of fixed rate debt outstanding, a ~~$1.6~~$4.9 million decrease as compared to December 31, 2021, excluding debt with a variable rate that is effectively fixed by related interest rate hedge contracts. The estimated aggregate fair market value of this debt was ~~$2,470.1~~$2,187.1 million. If interest rates had been 100 basis points higher, the aggregate fair market value of our fixed rate debt would have been ~~$140.0~~$111.4 million lower. If interest rates had been 100 basis points lower, the aggregate fair market value of our fixed rate debt would have been ~~$151.2~~$119.7 million higher.

At ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022, we had ~~$310.0~~$460.0 million of variable rate debt outstanding, a ~~$90.0~~$240.0 million increase as compared to December 31, 2021, not protected by interest rate hedge contracts. If the weighted average interest rate on this variable rate debt had been 100 basis points higher or lower, the annual interest expense at ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 would increase or decrease by ~~$3.1~~$4.6 million.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

SEC rules require us to maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our annual and periodic reports filed with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company’s CEO and CFO have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures of the Company and the Operating Partnership were each effective ~~at the end~~as of ~~the period covered by this Quarterly Report.~~September 30, 2022.

SEC rules also require us to establish and maintain internal control over financial reporting designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. There were also no changes in internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2022 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Operating Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.

~~ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION~~

We face risks associated with security breaches through cyberattacks, cyber intrusions or otherwise, as well as other significant disruptions of our information technology networks and related systems. The audit committee of the Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing management’s risk assessment and risk management processes designed to monitor and control information security risk. Anne Lloyd, chair of our audit committee, has significant experience overseeing the technology function and processes at other public companies. Ryan Hunt, the Company’s chief information officer, who holds a Bachelor of Science in Information Systems Management and has held multiple technology positions at the Company, regularly briefs the audit committee on information security matters. These briefings generally occur on a quarterly basis. The chief information officer also generally briefs a management committee composed of the Company’s CEO, CFO and multiple other executive officers on a quarterly basis. The chief information officer, who leads our internal technology department, reports directly to the Company’s CEO.

In recent years, we have allocated increased resources to further strengthen our approach to identify and mitigate information security risks which we believe is commercially reasonable for real estate companies, including some of the best practices of the National Institute of Standards and Technology cybersecurity framework. Since January 1, 2018, we have not experienced any information security breaches that resulted in any financial loss. We have both a disaster recovery plan, designed to restore critical systems following a cyberattack, and a business continuity plan, designed to assist management in appropriately responding and continuing to conduct business in the event of a cyberattack. Additionally, we have a cyber risk insurance policy designed to help us mitigate risk exposure by offsetting costs involved with recovery and remediation after an information security breach or similar event. We engage independent third parties to test our information security processes and systems as part of our overall enterprise risk management generally on an annual basis.

We also conduct real-world threat assessments to maintain up-to-date defenses against cyberattacks. The chief information officer solicits feedback from employees and outside advisors to identify potential gaps in information security defenses and identify areas in need of additional investment. We conduct information security training to ensure all employees are aware of information security risks and enable them to take steps to mitigate such risks and intend to continue doing so on a quarterly basis in the future. As part of this program, we also take reasonable steps to ensure any employee who may come into possession of confidential personal financial or health information has received appropriate information security awareness training.

Recognizing the risks to our own cybersecurity that can be posed by third-party service providers, the chief information officer has identified key vendors who provide services to the Company. Increased attention is devoted to identifying and mitigating cybersecurity risks associated with the use of these third-party service providers. Such providers may be asked to present the Company with internal audits or other simulation test results verifying information security procedures.
