Information Regarding Disclosures Presented
Annualized Lease Revenue ("ALR"), a non-GAAP measure,ALR is calculated by multiplying (i) current rental payments (defined as base rent plus operating expense reimbursements, if payable by the tenant on a monthly basis under the terms of a lease that has been executed, but excluding (a) rental abatements and (b) rental payments related to executed but not commenced leases for space that was covered by an existing lease), by (ii) 12. In instances in which contractual rents or operating expense reimbursements are collected on an annual, semi-annual, or quarterly basis, such amounts are multiplied by a factor of 1, 2, or 4, respectively, to calculate the annualized figure. For leases that have been executed but not commenced relating to un-leasedunleased space, ALR is calculated by multiplying (i) the monthly base rental payment (excluding abatements) plus any operating expense reimbursements for the initial month of the lease term, by (ii) 12. Unless stated otherwise, this measure excludes revenues associated with our unconsolidated joint venture property (sold on July 27, 2017)development properties and development/re-development properties taken out of service for redevelopment, if any.

Piedmont internally evaluates all of its real estate assets as one operating segment, and accordingly, does not report segment information.
2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements of Piedmont have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X, and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the statements for the unaudited interim periods presented include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such periods. Results for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of a full year’s results.
Piedmont’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Piedmont, Piedmont’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, any variable interest entity ("VIE") forof which Piedmont or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries is considered to have the power to direct the activities of the entity and the obligation to absorb losses/right to receive benefits, or any entity in which Piedmont or any of its wholly-owned subsidiaries owns a controlling interest. In determining whether Piedmont or Piedmont OP has a controlling interest, the following factors, among others, are considered: equity ownership, voting rights, protective rights of investors, and participatory rights of investors. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes included in Piedmont’s Amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2021.
All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Further, Piedmont has formed special purpose entities to acquire and hold real estate. Each special purpose entity is a separate legal entity. Consequently, the assets of these special purpose entities are not available to all creditors of Piedmont. The assets owned by these special purpose entities are being reported on a consolidated basis with Piedmont’s assets for financial reporting purposes only.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes. ActualThe most significant of these estimates include the underlying cash flows and holding periods used in assessing impairment, judgements regarding the recoverability of goodwill, and the assessment of the collectibility of receivables. While Piedmont has made, what it believes to be, appropriate accounting estimates based on the facts and circumstances available as of the reporting date, actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Income Taxes
Piedmont has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and has operated as such, beginning with its taxable year ended December 31, 1998. To qualify as a REIT, Piedmont must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of its annual REIT taxable income. As a REIT, Piedmont is generally not subject to federal income taxes, subject to fulfilling, among other things, thisits taxable income distribution requirement. Piedmont is subject to certain taxes related to the operations of properties in certain locations, as well as operations conducted by its taxable REIT subsidiary POH, which have been provided for in the financial statements.

Operating leases where Piedmont is the lessee relate primarily to office space in buildings owned by third parties. Piedmont's right of use asset and corresponding lease liability was approximately $0 and $60,000 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2016 have been reclassified2021, respectively. The right of use asset is recorded as a component of prepaid expenses and other assets, whereas the corresponding liability is presented as a component of accounts payable, accrued expenses, and accrued capital expenditures in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. For both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, Piedmont recognized approximately $20,000 and $60,000, respectively, of operating lease costs related to conformthese office space leases. As of September 30, 2022, the lease term of Piedmont's right of use asset had ended; however, the lease was renewed effective October 1, 2022 for 26 months.
Intangible Assets and Liabilities Resulting from Purchasing Real Estate Assets
Upon the acquisition of real properties, Piedmont allocates the purchase price of the properties to tangible assets, consisting of land, building, site improvements, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, including the current period financial statement presentation. The reclassifications relate to the Two Independence Square building, locatedvalue of in-place leases, based in Washington, D.C., which was firsteach case on Piedmont's estimate of their fair values in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820 Fair Value Measurements.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") has issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASU 2014-09")
For the three and Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) ("ASU 2016-08"). The amendments in ASU 2014-09, which are further clarified in ASU 2016-08,nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, Piedmont recognized amortization of intangible lease costs as well as Accounting Standards Update 2016-10, Accounting Standards Update 2016-12, and Accounting Standards Update 2016-20 (collectively the "Revenue Recognition Amendments"), change the criteria for the recognition of certain revenue streams to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services using a five-step determination process. Steps 1 through 5 involve (i) identifying contracts with a customer, (ii) identifying the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determining the transaction price, (iv) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations, and (v) recognizing revenue as an entity satisfies a performance obligation. The revenues impacted by the Revenue Recognition Amendments include a portion of Piedmont's tenant reimbursement revenues and property management fee revenues. Lease contracts and reimbursement revenues associated with property taxes and insurance are specifically excluded from the Revenue Recognition Amendments. The Revenue Recognition Amendments are effective in the first quarter of 2018 for Piedmont. Management has substantially completed its initial assessment of the impact of adoption of the Revenue Recognition Amendments. Approximately 90% of Piedmont's total revenues are derived from either long-term leases with its tenants or reimbursement of property tax and insurance expenses, which are excluded from the scope of the Revenue Recognition Amendments. In addition, based on management's assessment to date, Piedmont does not expect the timing of the recognition of reimbursement revenue and revenue from management agreements to change as a result of the new guidance, though certain classifications will change between rental revenue and tenant reimbursements. Finally, management has determined, and the FASB has confirmed, that the evaluation of non-lease components under the new Revenue Recognition Amendments will not be effective until Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), ("ASU 2016-02") becomes effective (see further discussion below), which will be first quarter of 2019 for Piedmont. Although management continues to evaluate the guidance and disclosures required by the Revenue Recognition Amendments, Piedmont does not anticipate any material impact to its consolidated financial statements as a result of adoption.follows (in thousands):
The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-05, Other Income—Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets ("ASU 2017-05"). The provisions of ASU 2017-05 define the term "in substance nonfinancial asset" as a financial asset promised to a counterparty in a contract if substantially all of the fair value of the assets (recognized and unrecognized) is concentrated in nonfinancial assets. Further, it states that nonfinancial assets should be derecognized once the counterparty obtains control. Finally, the amendments provide clarification for partial sales of nonfinancial assets. ASU 2017-05 is effective concurrent with the Revenue Recognition Amendments (detailed above), which will be the first quarter of 2018 for Piedmont. Although management continues to evaluate the guidance and disclosures required by ASU 2017-05, Piedmont does not anticipate a material change in how it recognizes, measures, and classifies the gain or loss on the disposition of real estate in its consolidated | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

financial statements as a result of adoption.
The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10), Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities ("ASU 2016-01"). The amendments in ASU 2016-01 require equity investments, except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, to be measured at estimated fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. Additionally, ASU 2016-01 simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments, and eliminates certain disclosure requirements. The amendments in ASU 2016-01 are effective in the first quarter of 2018, and Piedmont does not anticipate any material impact to its consolidated financial statements as a result of adoption.
The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230),Restricted Cash (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) ("ASU 2016-18"). The provisions of ASU 2016-18 require entities to show changes in restricted cash and cash equivalents in addition to cash and cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. As a result, entities will no longer present transfers between restricted and unrestricted cash in the statement of cash flows. Disclosures are required to reconcile the amount presented on the statement of cash flows to the balance sheet, as well as disclosing the nature of restriction on the restricted cash balances. ASU 2016-18 is effective for Piedmont in the first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted. Piedmont does not anticipate any material impact to its consolidated financial statements as a result of adoption.
The FASB has issued ASU 2016-02, which fundamentally changes the definition of a lease, as well as the accounting for operating leases by requiring lessees to recognizeNet intangible assets and liabilities which arise from the lease, consistingas of a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset, representing the right to use the leased asset over the term of the lease. Accounting for leases by lessors is substantially unchanged from prior practice as lessors will continue to recognize lease revenue on a straight-line basis; however, ASU 2016-02 defines certain tenant reimbursements as non-lease components whichSeptember 30, 2022 will be subject to the guidance under ASU 2014-09.

3. Acquisitions
The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326),Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"). The provisions of ASU 2016-13 replace the "incurred loss" approach with an "expected loss" model for impairing trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, net investment in leases, and off-balance-sheet credit exposures, which will generally result in earlier recognition of allowances for credit losses. Additionally, the provisions change the classification of credit losses related to available-for-sale securities to an allowance, rather than a direct reduction of the amortized cost of the securities. ASU 2016-13 is effective in the first quarter of 2020, with early adoption permitted as of January 1, 2019. Piedmont is currently evaluating the potential impact of adoption.
The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-04, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350),Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment ("ASU 2017-04"). The provisions of ASU 2017-04 simplify how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test, which is generally performed annually unless events or circumstances arise which would necessitate evaluating the carrying value for impairment in the interim. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a entity’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill by determining the fair value of its assets and liabilities (including unrecognized assets and liabilities) following the procedures that would be required in a business combination. Under the provisions of ASU 2017-04, an entity would instead recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the entity’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that entity. ASU 2017-04 is effective in the first quarter of 2020, with early adoption permitted as of the first interim or annual impairment test of goodwill after January 1, 2017. Piedmont is currently evaluating the potential impact of adoption.
3.Debt
During the three months ended September 30, 2017,2022, Piedmont fully repaidacquired 100% of the $140ownership interest in 1180 Peachtree Street in Midtown Atlanta, Georgia (part of the Atlanta geographic segment), consisting of 691,092 square feet and 95% leased. The net contractual purchase price of $465.7 million included the assumption of an existing $197 million, 4.10% mortgage secured by the property. The remaining cash portion of the purchase price was primarily funded using a new $200 Million WDC Fixed-Rate Loans prior toUnsecured Term Loan Facility (further described in Note 4 below), as well as cash on hand and our $600 Million Unsecured 2022 Line of Credit.
The purchase price of 1180 Peachtree Street, inclusive of approximately $2.2 million of closing costs, was allocated as follows:

Net cash paid upon acquisition | $ | 270,899 | |
(1)Amortization of in-place lease intangibles and lease acquisition costs are recognized using the straight-line method over approximately 7.4 years, the average remaining life of in-place leases.
4. Debt
As noted above, in conjunction with the acquisition of 1180 Peachtree Street during the three months ended September 30, 2022, Piedmont entered into a Loan Assignment and Assumption Agreement for an existing $197 million fixed rate mortgage secured by the property (the “$197 Million Fixed Rate Mortgage”). The $197 Million Fixed Rate Mortgage has a remaining term of approximately six years and a final maturity date without penalty and repaidof October 1, 2028. Interest only at a fixed rate of 4.10% per annum is payable until October 1, 2023, at which point the outstanding balanceloan becomes amortizing.
Piedmont also entered into a new $200 million, floating-rate, unsecured term loan facility (the “$200 Million Unsecured Term Loan Facility”) during the three months ended September 30, 2022 to fund the majority of the cash portion of the 1180 Peachtree Street purchase price. The term of the $200 Million Unsecured Term Loan Facility is six months, with an option to extend twice for an additional three months for a final maturity date of July 24, 2023. Piedmont may prepay the loan in whole or in part, at any time without premium or penalty. The stated interest rate spread over Adjusted Term SOFR can vary from 0.80% to 1.65% based upon the then current credit rating of Piedmont. As of September 30, 2022, the applicable interest rate spread on the loan was 1.00%.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, Piedmont amended and restated its $500 Million Unsecured 20152018 Line of Credit using a portionwhich had an initial maturity date of September 30, 2022. As amended and restated, the capacity of the net proceeds from the saleline of credit has been expanded to $600 million (the "$600 Million Unsecured 2022 Line of Credit"). The term of the Two Independence Square building (see Note 9).new $600 Million Unsecured 2022 Line of Credit was extended to June 30, 2026, and Piedmont may extend the term for up to one additional year (through two available six-month extensions) provided Piedmont is not then in default and all representations and warranties are true and correct in all material respects and upon payment of applicable extension fees. Under certain terms of the agreement, Piedmont may increase the new facility by up to an additional $500 million, to an aggregate size of $1.1 billion, provided that no existing bank has any obligation to participate in such increase. Piedmont paid customary arrangement and upfront fees to the lenders in connection with the closing of the new facility.
The $600 Million Unsecured 2022 Line of Credit has the option to bear interest at varying levels (determined with reference to the greater of the credit rating for Piedmont or Piedmont OP) based on the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, Adjusted Daily Effective SOFR Rate, or the Base Rate, all as defined in the facility agreement. Further, the Base Rate is defined as the greater of the
prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, or the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for a one-month period plus 1.0%. The term SOFR loans are available with interest periods selected by Piedmont of one, three, or six months. The stated interest rate spread over Adjusted SOFR can vary from 0.725% to 1.4% based upon the greater of the then current credit rating of Piedmont or Piedmont OP. As of September 30, 2022, based upon Piedmont’s current BBB credit rating, the current stated Adjusted SOFR spread on the loan is 0.85%.
The $600 Million Unsecured 2022 Line of Credit and the $200 Million Unsecured Term Loan Facility have certain financial covenants that require, among other things, the maintenance of an unencumbered interest rate coverage ratio of at least 1.75, an unencumbered leverage ratio of at least 1.60, a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.50, a leverage ratio of no more than 0.60, and a secured debt ratio of no more than 0.40.

4.Variable Interest Entities
Variable interest holders who have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and have the obligation to absorb the majority of losses of the entity or the right to receive significant benefits of the entity must consolidate the VIE. Each of the following VIEs has the sole purpose of holding land and office buildings and their resulting operations, and are classified in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets in the same manner as Piedmont’s wholly-owned properties.
A summary of Piedmont’s interests in, and consolidation treatment of, its VIEs and their related carrying values as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 is as follows (net carrying amount in millions):

Associates, LLCs, increasing Piedmont's ownership from 49.5% in each of the LLCs to the amounts stated above.
5.Derivative Instruments
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
In addition to operational risks which arise in the normal course of business, Piedmont is exposed to economic risks such as interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk. In certain situations, Piedmont has entered into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swap agreements and other similar agreements to manage interest rate risk exposure arising from current or future variable rate debt transactions. Interest rate swap agreements involve the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. Piedmont’s objective in using interest rate derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements.
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for Piedmont making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without changingexchange of the underlying notional amount. As ofDuring the three months ended September 30, 2017,2021, Piedmont was party to variousentered into, and subsequently settled, one forward starting interest rate swap agreements, allagreement with a notional value of which are designated as effective cash flow hedges and fully$50 million to hedge the variablerisk of changes in the interest-related cash flows coveringassociated with the entire outstanding balancesissuance of the $300 Million Unsecured 2011 Term LoanSenior Notes due 2032. The settlement resulted in a gain of approximately $0.6 million, which was recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income ("OCI") and the $300 Million Unsecured 2013 Term Loan. is being amortized as an offset to interest expense over ten years.
The maximum length of time over which Piedmont is hedging its exposure to the variability in future cash flows for forecasted transactions is 2730 months.

Piedmont recognized no loss related to hedge ineffectiveness of its cash flow hedges during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Additionally, see Note 6 for fair value disclosures of Piedmont's derivative instruments.
Credit-risk-related Contingent Features
Piedmont has agreements with its derivative counterparties that contain a provision whereby if Piedmont defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then Piedmont could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations. If Piedmont were to breach any of the contractual provisions of the derivative contracts, it could be required to settle its liability obligations under the agreements at their termination value of the estimated fair values plus accrued interest, or approximately $4.0 million interest. However, as of September 30, 2017.2022, both of Piedmont's interest rate swap agreements are in an asset position. Additionally, Piedmont has rights of set-off under certain of its derivative agreements related to potential terminationtermination fees and amounts payable under the agreements, if a termination were to occur.
6.Fair Value Measurement of Financial Instruments
Piedmont considers its cash and cash equivalents, tenant receivables, notes receivable, restricted cash and escrows, accounts payable and accrued expenses, interest rate swap agreements, and debt to meet the definition of financial instruments. The following table sets forth the carrying and estimated fair value for each of Piedmont’s financial instruments, as well as its level within the GAAP fair value hierarchy, as of September 30, 20172022 and December 31, 2016,2021, respectively (in thousands):

| For the periods presented, the carrying value of these financial instruments approximates estimated fair value due to their short-term maturity. |
Piedmont's debt was carried at book value as of September 30, 20172022 and December 31, 2016;2021, and its notes receivable were carried at book value as of December 31, 2021; however, Piedmont's estimate of its estimatedthe fair value of each of these financial instruments as of each period end is disclosed in the table above. Piedmont uses widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis based on the contractual terms of theits notes receivables and debt, facilities, including the period to maturity
of each instrument,note receivable and debt facility, and uses observable market-based inputs for similar loan and debt facilities which have transacted recently in the market. Therefore, the estimated fair values determined are considered to be based on significant other observable inputs (Level 2). Scaling adjustments are made to these inputs to make them applicable to the remaining life of Piedmont's notes receivables and outstanding debt. Consequently, the estimated fair values of the notes receivable and debt as of December 31, 2021 and the estimated fair value of debt as of September 30, 2022 are considered to be based on significant other observable inputs (Level 2). Piedmont has not changed its valuation technique for estimating the fair value of its notes receivable or debt.
Piedmont’s interest rate swap and forward starting interest rate swap agreements presented above, and as further discussed in Note 5, are classified as “Interest rate swap” assets and liabilitiesswaps” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and were carried at estimated fair value as of September 30, 20172022 and December 31, 2016.2021. The valuation of these derivative instruments was determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis based on the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity of each instrument, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. Therefore, the estimated fair values determined are considered to be based on significant other observable inputs (Level 2). In addition, Piedmont considered both its own and the respective counterparties’ risk of nonperformance in determining the estimated fair value of its derivative financial instruments by estimating the current and potential future exposure under the derivative financial instruments that both Piedmont and the counterparties were at risk for as of the valuation date. The credit risk of Piedmont and its counterparties werewas factored into the calculation of the estimated fair value of the interest rate swaps; however, as of September 30, 20172022 and December 31, 2016,2021, this credit valuation adjustment did not comprise a material portion of the estimated fair value. Therefore, Piedmont believes that any unobservable inputs used to determine the estimated fair values of its derivative financial instruments are not significant to the fair value measurements in their entirety, and does not consider any of its derivative financial instrumentsderivatives to be Level 3 assets or liabilities.financial instruments.

| |
(2)
| Piedmont, using a probability-weighted model heavily weighted towards the short-term sale of the 9221 Corporate Boulevard building in Rockville, Maryland, determined that the carrying value would not be recovered from the undiscounted future operating cash flows expected from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. As a result, Piedmont recognized a loss on impairment of approximately $2.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 calculated as the difference between the carrying value of the asset and the anticipated contract sales price, less estimated selling costs. |

| Piedmont elected to sell its remaining two assets and exit the Rockville, Maryland sub-market of Washington, D.C, after selling the 9221 Corporate Boulevard building in July 2016 (mentioned above). Upon management's change in its hold period assumption for the assets from a long-term hold to a near-term sale, Piedmont recognized an impairment loss of approximately $23.0 million. The impairment loss was calculated as the difference between the carrying value of the asset and the anticipated contracted sales price, less estimated selling costs. Piedmont reclassified the properties as held for sale, recognized an impairment loss, entered into a binding contract, and subsequently sold the 9200 and 9211 Corporate Boulevard buildings during the three months ended September 30, 2016. |

8.Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments Under Existing Lease Agreements
UnderAs a recurring part of its existingbusiness, Piedmont is typically required under its executed lease agreements Piedmont may be required to fund significant tenant improvements, leasing commissions, and building improvements. In addition, certain agreements contain provisions that require Piedmont to issue corporate or property guarantees to provide funding for capital improvements or other financial obligations. Such commitments will be accrued and capitalized as the related expenditures are incurred. In addition to the amounts that Piedmont classifieshas already committed to as a part of executed leases, Piedmont also anticipates continuing to incur similar market-based tenant improvement allowances and leasing commissions in conjunction with procuring future leases for its capital improvements into two categories: (i) improvements which maintainexisting portfolio of properties. Both the building's existing asset valuetiming and its revenue generating capacity (“non-incremental capital expenditures”) and (ii) improvements which incrementally enhance the building's asset value by expanding its revenue generating capacity (“incremental capital expenditures”). Asmagnitude of September 30, 2017, commitments to fund potential non-incremental capital expenditures over the next five years for tenant improvements totaled approximately $32.1 million related to Piedmont's existing lease portfolio overfuture leasing activity can vary due to a number of factors and are highly dependent on the respective lease terms, the majority of which Piedmont estimates may be required to be funded over the next three years based on when the underlying leases commence. For most of Piedmont’s leases, the timingsize of the actual fundingleased square footage and the competitive market conditions of these tenant improvementsthe particular office market at the time a lease is largely dependent upon tenant requests for reimbursement. In some cases, these obligations may expire with the leases without further recourse to Piedmont. As of September 30, 2017, commitments for incremental capital expenditures for tenant improvements associated with executed leases totaled approximately $15.2 million.being negotiated.
Contingencies Related to Tenant Audits/Disputes
Certain lease agreements include provisions that grant tenants the right to engage independent auditors to audit their annual operating expense reconciliations. Such audits may result in the re-interpretationdifferent interpretations of language in the lease agreements whichfrom that made by Piedmont, which could result in the refundrequests for refunds of previously recognized tenant reimbursement revenues, resulting in financial loss to Piedmont. Piedmont recordedThere were no such reductions in rental and reimbursement revenues related to such tenant audits/disputes during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and $0.3 million and $02022 or 2021.

11.Earnings Per Share
There are no adjustments to “Net income applicable to Piedmont” for the diluted earnings per share computations. Adjustments to the carrying amount of non-controlling interest as a result of the measurement of a redeemable equity participation do not impact net income or comprehensive income; rather such adjustments are treated as the repurchase of a non-controlling interest.
Net income per share-basic is calculated as net income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Net income per share-diluted is calculated as net income available to common stockholders divided by the diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including unvested deferred stock awards. Diluted weighted average number of common shares reflects the potential dilution under the treasury stock method that would occur if the remaining unvested deferredand potential stock awards vested and resulted in additional common shares outstanding. Unvested deferredand potential stock awards which are determined to be anti-dilutive are not included in the calculation of diluted weighted average common shares. For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, Piedmont calculated and excluded weighted average outstanding anti-dilutive shares of approximately 194,330 and 145,222, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, Piedmont calculated and excluded weighted average outstanding anti-dilutive shares of 346,695 and 313,140, respectively.

Piedmont's President and Chief Executive Officer has been identified as Piedmont's chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), as defined by GAAP. The CODM evaluates Piedmont's portfolio and assesses the ongoing operations and performance of its properties utilizing the following geographic segments: Atlanta, Dallas, Washington, D.C., Boston, Orlando, New York, and Minneapolis. These operating segments are also Piedmont’s reportable segments. As of September 30, 2022, Piedmont also owned two properties in Houston that do not meet the definition of an operating or reportable segment as the CODM does not regularly review these properties for purposes of allocating resources or assessing performance. Further, Piedmont does not maintain a significant presence or anticipate further investment in this market. These two properties are the primary contributors to accrual-based net operating income ("NOI") included in "Other" below. During the periods presented, there have been no material inter segment transactions. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as Piedmont's accounting policies.
12.GuarantorNOI by geographic segment is the primary performance measure reviewed by Piedmont's CODM to assess operating performance and Non-Guarantor Financial Informationconsists only of revenues and expenses directly related to real estate rental operations. NOI is calculated by deducting property operating costs from lease revenues and other property related income. NOI reflects property acquisitions and dispositions, occupancy levels, rental rate increases or decreases, and the recoverability of operating expenses. Piedmont's calculation of NOI may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures calculated by other REITs.
Asset value information and capital expenditures by segment are not reported because the CODM does not use these measures to assess performance.

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 accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. (“Piedmont,” "we," "our," or "us"). See also “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” preceding Part I, as well as the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2021.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We intend to use cash on hand, cash flows generated from the operation of our properties, net proceeds from the disposition of select properties, and borrowings under our $500$600 Million Unsecured 20152022 Line of Credit and proceeds from selective property dispositions as our primary sources of immediate liquidity. During the quarter ended September 30, 2017, we sold the Two Independence Square building in Washington, D.C., which generated net sales proceeds of approximately $352 million. We used the proceeds to pay off the balance outstanding on our $500 Million Unsecured 2015 Line of Credit, as well as to repay the $140 Million WDC Fixed-Rate Loans. As a result, as of the date of this filing, in addition to approximately $36 million cash on hand, we have the full capacity under our $500 million line of credit available. From time to time,When necessary, we may also seek additionalother new secured or unsecured borrowings from third-partythird party lenders or issue other debt or equity securities as additional sources of capital. The availabilitynature and attractivenesstiming of terms for these additional sources of capital arewill be highly dependent on market conditions. We believe that we have sufficient liquidity to meet our obligations for the foreseeable future.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2022, we acquired 1180 Peachtree Street, an iconic, 41-story, Class AA, LEED Platinum, trophy office building located at the epicenter of Midtown Atlanta, Georgia, for a net purchase price of approximately $465 million, comprised of approximately $268 million in cash and the assumption of an existing $197 million, 4.10% mortgage secured by the property. The cash portion of the net purchase price was funded primarily from the proceeds of a $200 million, unsecured, floating rate, term loan put in place during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and bearing interest at Adjusted Term SOFR + 100 bps. On a longer-term basis, we anticipate using the net sales proceeds from the disposition of non-strategic assets over the next several quarters to ultimately fund the acquisition and maintain an approximately leverage-neutral balance sheet.
Our most consistent use of capital has historically been, and we believe will continue to be, to fund capital expenditures for our existing portfolio of properties. During the nine months ended September 30, 20172022 and 20162021 we incurred the following types of capital expenditures (in thousands):

Expenditures during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 pertained to 500 TownPark, a now-complete, 134,000 square foot, 90% leased, four-story office building located adjacent to our existing 400 TownPark building in Lake Mary, Florida, as well as initial pre-construction costs for three separate land parcels in our portfolio. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, our active development projects consisted of Enclave Place, our now-complete, 301,000 square foot, 11-story office tower in Houston, Texas,2022 and the previously mentioned 500 TownPark building.2021, respectively.
"Capital expenditures for redevelopment/renovations" during both the nine months ended September 30, 20172022 and 20162021 related to a now-complete redevelopment project that convertedbuilding upgrades, primarily to the lobbies and the addition of tenant amenities at our 3100 Clarendon Boulevard60 Broad Street building in Arlington, Virginia from governmental use into Class A private sector office space.New York City; our 200 South Orange Avenue building in Orlando, Florida; and our Galleria buildings in Atlanta, Georgia, among others.
"Other capital expenditures" includeexpenditures, including building and tenant improvements" includes all other capital expenditures during the period and areis typically comprised of tenant and building improvements necessary to lease, maintain, or provide enhancements to our existing portfolio of office properties.
We classifyGiven that our tenant and building improvements into two categories: (i) improvements which maintainoperating model sometimes results in leases for large blocks of space to credit-worthy tenants, our leasing success can result in capital outlays that vary significantly from one reporting period to another depending upon the building's existing asset value and its revenue generating capacity (“non-incremental capital expenditures”) and (ii) improvements which incrementally enhancespecific leases executed. For leases executed during the building's asset value by expanding its revenue generating capacity (“incremental capital expenditures”). Commitments for funding non-incremental capital expendituresnine months ended September 30, 2022, we committed to spend approximately $4.93 per square foot per year of lease term for tenant improvements overimprovement allowances and lease commissions (net of expired lease commitments) as compared to $3.95 (net of expired lease commitments) for the next five years related to our existingnine months ended September 30, 2021. Commitments per square foot per year of lease portfolio total approximately $32.1 million. The timingterm for tenant improvement allowances and lease commissions (net of expired lease commitments) for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 were unusually low as they reflected the 330,000 square foot, five-year extension of the fundingNew York City lease at our 60 Broad Street asset, which did not include a tenant improvement allowance.
the respective lease without further recourse to us. Additionally, commitments for incremental capital expenditures for tenant improvements associated with executed leases totaled approximately $15.2 million as of September 30, 2017.
In addition to the amounts described above to whichthat we have already committed to as a part of executed leases, we also anticipate continuing to incur similar market-based tenant improvement allowances and leasing commissions in conjunction with procuring future leases for our existing portfolio of properties, including recently completed development and redevelopment projects. Given that our operating model frequently results in leases for large blocks of space to credit-worthy tenants, our leasing success can result in significant capital outlays. For example, for leases executed during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we committed to spend approximately $3.65 and $1.47 per square foot per year of lease term for tenant improvement allowances and leasing commissions, respectively, and for those executed during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we committed to spend approximately $3.68 and $1.54 per square foot per year of lease term for tenant improvement allowances and leasing commissions, respectively.properties. Both the timing and magnitude of expenditures related to future leasing activity can vary due to a number of factors and are highly dependent on the size of the leased square footage and the competitive market conditions of the particular office market at the time a given lease is negotiated and signed.being negotiated.
There are several other uses of capital that may arise as part of our ongoingtypical operations. Although we currently have no debt maturing until May of 2018, on a longer term basis we expect to use capital to make repayments of our line of credit or other maturing debt obligations as they become due. Additionally, subjectSubject to the identification and availability of attractive investment opportunities within our targeted sub-markets and our ability to consummate such acquisitions on satisfactory terms, acquiring new assets consistent with our investment strategy could also be a significant use of capital. Finally, our Board of Directors has authorized a stock repurchase program, pursuant to which weWe may also use capital resources to repurchase additional shares of our common stock under our stock repurchase program when we believe the stock is trading disparately from timeour peers and at a significant discount to time.net asset value or when we otherwise believe such stock repurchases are prudent. As of September 30, 2022, we had approximately $150.5 million of remaining capacity under the program which may be used for share repurchases through February 2024. Finally, we have two scheduled debt maturities, the $200 Million Unsecured Term Loan Facility and the $350 Million Unsecured Senior Notes, within the next twelve months, which we intend to repay through sales of select properties, debt refinancing, cash on hand, cash flow from operations, and/or draws under our existing $600 Million Unsecured 2022 Line of Credit.
We may also use capital resources to pay dividends to our stockholders. The amount and form of payment (cash or stock issuance) of future dividends to be paid to our stockholders will continue to be largely dependent upon (i) the amount of cash generated from our operating activities; (ii) our expectations of future cash flows; (iii) our determination of near-term cash needs for debt repayments, development projects, and selective acquisitions of new properties; (iv) the timing of significant expenditures for tenant improvements, leasing commissions, building redevelopment projects, and general property capital improvements; (v) long-term dividend payout ratios for comparable companies; (vi) our ability to continue to access additional sources of capital, including potential sales of our properties; and (vii) the amount required to be distributed to maintain our tax status as a REIT. Additionally, given relatively attractive real estate values in recent years, we were a net seller of assets during 2016, and expect to continue to be a net seller of assets in the current year, which may result in large one-time, tax-basis capital gains that cannot be offset by tax-basis capital losses or by tax deferred structures, such as Section 1031 exchanges. As a result, we may make special dividend distributions in addition to our normal quarterly distributions, if such distributions are required to maintain our tax status as a REIT. With the fluctuating nature of cash flows and expenditures, we may periodically borrow funds on a short-term basis to cover timing differences in cash receipts and cash disbursements.
Results of Operations
Overview
We recognizedNet income applicable to common stockholders for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was approximately $3.3 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, as compared with net income applicable to common stockholders of $0.87$11.3 million, or $0.09 per fully diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2017,2021. The decrease reflects a $7.3 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense primarily resulting from acquisition activity during the current period, as compared withwell as a net loss of ($0.09) per fully diluted share$4.8 million increase in interest expense. The increase in interest expense was driven by increased interest rates on our variable rate debt, as well as a higher average debt balance outstanding during the quarter. Other income also decreased approximately $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The increase was primarily2022 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021 due to the salepayoff of notes receivable due from the Two Independence Square building, generating approximately $109.5 million, or $0.75 per diluted share, in gain on sale of real estate assets during the current period. The remainder of the increase is primarily attributable to the non-recurrence of impairment charges which arose in the prior period, and the recognition of a gain on the salepurchaser of our last unconsolidated joint venture propertyNew Jersey Portfolio in the current period.March of 2022.

Depreciation expense decreased approximately $4.1 million for the ninetwelve months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the same period in the prior year. Approximately $7.4 million of the decrease was attributable to net property sales activity during 2016 and 2017, of which $5.8 million is attributable to the sale of the Two Independence Square building in July 2017. These decreases were offset by depreciation on additional building and tenant improvements placed in service subsequent to January 1, 2016 across our portfolio of properties, including two development projects and one re-development project placed in service in January 2017.
Amortization expense increased approximately $3.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the same period in the prior year.

Net Operating Income by Geographic Segment
Our President and Chief Executive Officer has been identified as our chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), as defined by GAAP. Our CODM evaluates Piedmont's portfolio and assesses the ongoing operations and performance of its properties utilizing the following geographic segments: Atlanta, Dallas, Washington, D.C., Boston, Orlando, New York, and Minneapolis. These operating segments are also our reportable segments. As of September 30, 2022, we also owned two properties in Houston that do not meet the definition of an operating or reportable segment as the CODM does not regularly review these properties for purposes of allocating resources or assessing performance. Further, we do not maintain a significant presence or anticipate further investment in this market. These two properties are the primary contributors to NOI included in "Other" below. See Note 12 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information and a reconciliation of Net income applicable to Piedmont to accrual-based net operating income ("NOI").

Washington, D.C.
NOI increased due to the commencement of certain leases subsequent to July 1, 2021, primarily at 400 Virginia Avenue and 3100 Clarendon Boulevard.

Funds From Operations (“FFO”("FFO"), Core FFO,Funds From Operations ("Core FFO"), and Adjusted Funds fromFrom Operations
(“AFFO”)
Net income calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP")GAAP is the starting point for calculating FFO, Core FFO, and AFFO. These metrics are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be viewed as an alternative measurement of our operating performance to net income. Management believes that 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, many industry investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting alone to be insufficient by themselves.insufficient. As a result, we believe that the additive use of FFO, Core FFO, and AFFO, together with the required GAAP presentation, provides a more complete understanding of our performance relative to our competitors and a more informed and appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing, and investing activities.
We calculate FFO in accordance with the current National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") definition. NAREIT currently defines FFO as follows: Net income (computed(calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of property and impairment charges (including our proportionate share of any impairment charges and/or gains or losses from sales of property related to investments in unconsolidated joint ventures), plus depreciation and amortization on real estate assets (including our proportionate share of depreciation and amortization related to investmentsreal estate, gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, gains and losses from change in unconsolidatedcontrol, and impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investment in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity, along with appropriate adjustments to those reconciling items for joint ventures).ventures, if any. Other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do; therefore, our computation of FFO may not be comparable to suchthe computation made by other REITs.
We calculate Core FFO by starting with FFO, as defined by NAREIT, and adjusting for gains or losses on the extinguishment of swaps and/or debt acquisition-related expenses, and any significant non-recurring or infrequent items. Core FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of our
operating performance. We believe that Core FFO is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it excludes the effects of certain infrequent or non-recurring items which can create significant earnings volatility, but which do not directly relate to our core recurring business operations. As a result, we believe that Core FFO can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and provides a more meaningful predictor of future earnings potential. Other REITs may not define Core FFO in the same manner as us; therefore, our computation of Core FFO may not be comparable to that ofthe computation made by other REITs.
We calculate AFFO by starting with Core FFO and adjusting for non-incremental capital expenditures and acquisition-related costs and then adding back non-cash items including: non-real estate depreciation, straight-lined rents and fair value lease adjustments, non-cash components of interest expense and compensation expense, and by making similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.ventures, if any. AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of our operating performance. We believe that AFFO is helpful to investors as a meaningful supplemental comparative performance measure of our ability to make incremental capital investments.investments in new properties or enhancements to existing properties that improve revenue growth potential. Other REITs may not define AFFO in the same manner as us; therefore, our computation of AFFO may not be comparable to thatthe computation of other REITs.

Property and Same Store Net Operating Income
Property Net Operating Income ("Property NOI") is a non-GAAP measure which we use to assess our operating results. We calculate Property NOI beginning with Net income (computed(calculated in accordance with GAAP) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and incrementally removing any impairment losses,impairments and gains or losses from sales of property and other significant infrequent items that create volatility within our earnings and make it difficult to determine the earnings generated by our core ongoing business. Furthermore, we adjust forremove general and administrative expense,expenses, income associated with property management performed by us for other organizations, and other income or expense items, such as interest income from loan investments or costs from the pursuit of non-consummated transactions.investments. For Property NOI (cash basis), the effects of non-cash general reserve for uncollectible accounts, straight-lined rents and fair value lease revenue are also eliminated; while such effects are not adjusted in calculating Property NOI (accrual basis). Property NOI is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of our operating performance. We believe that Property NOI, on either a cash or accrual basis, is helpful to investors as a supplemental comparative performance measure of income generated by our properties alone without our administrative overhead. Other REITs may not define Property NOI in the same manner as we do; therefore, our computation of Property NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs.
We calculate Same Store Net Operating Income ("Same Store NOI") as Property NOI applicableattributable to the properties (excluding undeveloped land parcels) that were (i) owned or placed in serviceby us during the entire span of the current and prior year reporting periods; (ii) that were not being developed or redeveloped during those periods; and (iii) for which no operating expenses were capitalized during those periods. Same Store NOI, also excludes amounts applicable to unconsolidated joint venture assets. Same Store NOIon either a cash or accrual basis, is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of our operating performance. We believe that Same Store NOI on either a cash or accrual basis is helpful to investors as a supplemental comparative performance measure of the income generated from the same group of properties from one period to the next. Other REITs may not define Same Store NOI in the same manner as we do; therefore, our computation of Same Store NOI may not be comparable to that of other REITs.

NAREIT currently defines EBITDAre as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) adjusted for gains or losses from sales of property, impairment losses, depreciation on real estate assets, amortization on real estate assets, interest expense and taxes, along with the same adjustments for joint ventures. Some of the adjustments mentioned can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful-life estimates. EBITDAre is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be viewed as an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP as a measurement of our operating performance. We believe that EBITDAre is helpful to investors as a supplemental performance measure because it provides a metric for understanding our results from ongoing operations without taking into account the effects of non-cash expenses (such as depreciation and amortization) and capitalization and capital structure expenses (such as interest expense and taxes). We also believe that EBITDAre can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. However, other REITs may not define EBITDAre in accordance with the NAREIT definition, or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than us; therefore, our computation of EBITDAre may not be comparable to that of such other REITs.
(2)We calculate Core Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization ("Core EBITDA") as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and incrementally removing any impairment losses,

Overview
Our portfolio is a diverse geographical portfoliolocated within identified growth submarkets in large metropolitan cities concentrated primarily located in select sub-markets within eight major office markets located in the Eastern-half of the U.S.Sunbelt. We typically lease space to large, credit-worthycreditworthy corporate or governmental tenants on a long-term basis. OurAs of September 30, 2022, our average lease iswas approximately 21,00015,000 square feet with 6.5approximately six years of lease term remaining as of September 30, 2017. As a result,remaining. Consequently, leased percentage, as well as rent roll ups and roll downs, which we experience as a result of re-leasing, can fluctuate widely between markets, between buildings and between tenants, within a given market depending on when a particular lease is scheduled to commence or expire.
Leased Percentage
Our current in-service portfolio of 66 office properties was 89.2%86.8% leased as of September 30, 2017, down from 93.4%2022, as compared to 85.5% leased as of September 30, 2016, due primarily to placing three development/re-development properties totaling 700,000 square feet in service during the current year,December 31, 2021 and the expiration of two tenant leases and sale of a 100% leased asset in our Washington, D.C. portfolio during the three months ended September 30, 2017, as well as net leasing activity. As of September 30, 2017, scheduled lease expirations for the portfolio as a whole for the remainder of 20172022 and 2018 were 0.6% and 7.9%, respectively,2023 represent less than 10% of our ALR.ALR, some portion of which may renew. To the extent the square footage from new leases for currently vacant space outweighexceed or fall short of scheduledthe square footage associated with non-renewing expirations, such leases would increase or decrease our overall leased percentage, respectively. Our leased percentage may also fluctuate from the impact of various occupancy levels in our net acquisition and disposition activity.
Impact of Downtime, Abatement Periods, and Rental Rate Changes
Commencement of new leases typically occurs 6-18 months after the lease execution date, after refurbishment of the space is completed. The downtime between a lease expiration and the new lease's commencement can negatively impact Property NOI and Same Store NOI comparisons (both accrual and cash basis). In addition, office leases, both new and lease renewals,renewal, often contain upfront rental and/or operating expense abatement periods which delay the cash flow benefits of the lease even after the new lease or renewal has commenced and will continue to negatively impact Property NOI and Same Store NOI on a cash basis until such abatements expire. As of September 30, 2017,2022, we had approximately 421,0001.2 million square feet of executed leases related to currentlyfor vacant space that had not yet commenced andto commence or under rental abatement, representing approximately 1.1$38 million square feet of commenced leases that were in some form of rental and/or operating expense abatement.additional annual cash revenue.
If we are unable to replace expiring leases with new or renewal leases at rental rates equal to or greater than the expiring rates, rental rate roll downs could occur and negatively impact Property NOI and Same Store NOI comparisons. As mentioned above, our geographically diverse portfolio and large block tenant modelthe magnitude of some of our tenant's leased space can result in rent roll ups and roll downs that can
fluctuate widely on a building-by-building and a quarter-to-quarter basis. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we experienced a 33.1% and 37.6% roll up in cash and accrual rents, respectively, on executed leases related to space vacant one year or less. Both increases for the quarter were impacted by a lease renewal and extension executed with a tenant at our Three Galleria Tower building in Dallas, Texas during the three months ended September 30, 2022. If the effects of this lease transaction were to be removed, the percentage change in cash and accrual rents for the three months ended September 30, 2022 would be 9.9% and 12.6%, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we experienced a 10.5% and 18.5% roll up in cash and accrual rents, respectively.
Same Store NOI increased 5.2% and 1.1%was effectively flat on a cash and accrual basis, respectively, duringfor the three months ended September 30, 20172022 as compared to the same period in the prior year. However, Same Store NOI increased 2.2% and 11.0% and 6.7%1.8% on aan cash and accrual basis, respectively, duringfor the nine months ended September 30, 2017,2022 as compared to the same periodsperiod in the prior year. TheseThe primary drivers of the increases are primarily the result of lease commencements (accrual basis)in both metrics were increased rental rates and the expiration of rental abatements associated with new leases (cash basis). In addition, Same Store NOI on both an accrual and cash basis were favorably impacted by the receiptat certain of one-time restructuring fees and the recovery of prior year reimbursement income as a result of the resolution of a tenant dispute during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.our properties. Property NOI and Same Store NOI comparisons for any given period may still fluctuate as a result of the mix of net leasing activity in individual properties during the respective period.
Election as a REIT
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code and have operated as such beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 1998. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet certain organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of our adjusted REIT taxable income, computed without regard to the dividends-paid deduction and by excluding net capital gains attributable to our stockholders, as defined by the Code. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax on income that we distribute to our stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we may be subject to federal income taxes on our taxable income for that year and for the four years following the year during which qualification is lost and/or penalties, unless the IRS grants us relief under certain statutory provisions. Such an event could materially adversely affect our net income and net cash available for distribution to our stockholders. However, we believe that we are organized and operate in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT and intend to continue to operate in the foreseeable future in such a manner that we will remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. We have elected to treat POH, aone of our wholly-owned subsidiary of Piedmont,subsidiaries as a taxable REIT subsidiary. POHThis subsidiary performs non-customary services for tenants of buildings that we own including solar power generation,and real estate and non-real estate related-services; however, any earnings related to such services
performed by our taxable REIT subsidiary are subject to federal and state income taxes. In addition, for us to continue to qualify as a REIT, our investments in taxable REIT subsidiaries cannot exceed 25% (20% for taxable years beginning after 2017)20% of the value of our total assets.
Inflation
We are exposed to inflation risk, as income from long-term leases is the primary source of our cash flows from operations. There are provisions in the majority of our tenant leases that are intended to protect us from, and mitigate the risk of, the impact of inflation. These provisions include rent steps, reimbursement billings for operating expense pass-through charges, real estate tax, and insurance reimbursements on a per square-foot basis, or in some cases, annual reimbursement of operating expenses above certain per square-foot allowances. However, due to the long-term nature of the leases, the leases may not readjust their reimbursement rates frequently enough to fully cover inflation.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We are not dependent on off-balance sheet financing arrangements for liquidity. As of September 30, 2017, our off-balance sheet arrangement consists of an operating lease obligation related to a ground lease at one of our properties. For further information regarding our commitments under operating lease obligations, see the Contractual Obligations table below.
Application of Critical Accounting PoliciesEstimates
Our accounting policies have been established to conform with GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to use judgmentjudgement in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. These judgmentsjudgements affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. If our judgmentjudgement or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied, thus, resulting in a different presentation of the financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. TheRefer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 for a discussion of our critical accounting policies outlined belowand estimates. There have been discussed with members of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.
Investment in Real Estate Assets
We are requiredno material changes to make subjective assessments as to the useful lives of our depreciable assets. We consider the period of future benefit of the asset to determine the appropriate useful lives. These assessments have a direct impact on net income applicable to Piedmont. The estimated useful lives of our assets by class are as follows:
|
| |
Buildings | 40 years |
Building improvements | 5-25 years |
Land improvements | 20-25 years |
Tenant allowances | Lease term |
Furniture, fixtures, and equipment | 3-5 years |
Intangible lease assets | Lease term |
Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities of Acquired Properties
Upon the acquisition of real properties, we record the relative fair value of properties to acquired tangible assets, consisting of land and buildings, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases and the value of in-place leases, based on their estimated fair values.
The estimated fair values of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land and building) are determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to land and building based on management’s determination of the relative fair value of these assets. We rely on a sales comparison approach using closed land sales and listings in determining the land value, and determine the as-if-vacant estimated fair value of a property using methods similar to those used by independent appraisers. Factors considered by management in performing these analyses include an estimate of carrying costspolicies during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance, and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rental revenue
during the expected lease-up periods based on current market demand. We also estimate the cost to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal, and other related costs.
The estimated fair values of above-market and below-market in-place leases are recorded based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management’s estimate of market rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining terms of the leases, taking into consideration the probability of renewals for any below-market leases. The capitalized above-market and below-market lease values are recorded as intangible lease assets or liabilities and amortized as an adjustment to rental revenues over the remaining terms of the respective leases.
The estimated fair values of in-place leases include an estimate of the direct costs associated with obtaining the acquired or "in place" tenant, estimates of opportunity costs associated with lost rentals that are avoided by acquiring an in-place lease. The amount capitalized as direct costs associated with obtaining a tenant include commissions, tenant improvements, and other direct costs and are estimated based on management’s consideration of current market costs to execute a similar lease. These direct lease origination costs are included in deferred lease costs in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are amortized to expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases. The value of opportunity costs is calculated using the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases over a market absorption period for a similar lease. These lease intangibles are included in intangible lease assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and are amortized to expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases.
Estimating the fair values of the tangible and intangible assets requires us to estimate market lease rates, property operating expenses, carrying costs during lease-up periods, discount and capitalization rates, market absorption periods, and the number of years the property is held for investment. The use of inappropriate estimates would result in an incorrect assessment of our purchase price allocations, which would impact the amount of our reported net income attributable to Piedmont.
Valuation of Real Estate Assets and Investments in Joint Ventures which Hold Real Estate Assets
We continually monitor events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of the real estate and related intangible assets, both operating properties and properties under construction, in which we have an ownership interest, either directly or through investments in joint ventures, may not be recoverable. For wholly owned properties, when indicators of potential impairment are present, or when a sale in the near term is considered more than 50% probable, we assess whether the respective carrying values including a proportionate amount of goodwill, if applicable, will be recovered from the undiscounted future operating cash flows expected from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition for assets held for use, or from the estimated fair value, less costs to sell, for assets held for sale. In the event that the expected undiscounted future cash flows for assets held for use or the estimated fair value, less costs to sell, for assets held for sale do not exceed the respective asset carrying value, we adjust such assets to the respective estimated fair values and recognize an impairment loss. For our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, we assess the estimated fair value of our investment, as compared to our carrying amount. If we determine that the carrying value is greater than the estimated fair value at any measurement date, we must also determine if such a difference is temporary in nature. Value fluctuations which are “other than temporary” in nature are then recorded to adjust the carrying value to the estimated fair value amount.
Projections of expected future cash flows require that we estimate future market rental income amounts subsequent to the expiration of current lease agreements, property operating expenses, the number of months it takes to re-lease the property, and the number of years the property is held for investment, among other factors. The subjectivity of assumptions used in the future cash flow analysis, including capitalization and discount rates, could result in an incorrect assessment of the property’s estimated fair value and, therefore, could result in the misstatement of the carrying value of our real estate and related intangible assets and our reported net income attributable to Piedmont.
Goodwill
Goodwill is the excess of cost of an acquired entity over the amounts specifically assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in purchase accounting for business combinations, as well as costs incurred as part of the acquisition. We test the carrying value of our goodwill for impairment on an annual basis, or on an interim basis if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate the carrying amount may be impaired. Such interim circumstances may include, but are not limited to, significant adverse changes in legal factors or in the general business climate, adverse action or assessment by a regulator, unanticipated competition, the loss of key personnel, or persistent declines in an entity’s stock price below carrying value of the entity. We have the option, should we choose to use it, to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, we conclude that the estimated fair value is greater than the carrying amount, then performing the two-step impairment test is unnecessary. However, if we chose to forgo the availability of the qualitative
analysis, the test prescribed by authoritative accounting guidance is a two-step test. The first step involves comparing the estimated fair value of the entity to its carrying value, including goodwill. Estimated fair value is determined by adjusting the trading price of the stock for a control premium, if necessary, multiplied by the common shares outstanding. If such calculated estimated fair value exceeds the carrying value, no further procedures or analysis is required. However, if the carrying value exceeds the calculated fair value, goodwill is potentially impaired and step two of the analysis would be required. Step two of the test involves calculating the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the estimated fair value of all tangible and intangible net assets of the entity from the entity’s estimated fair value calculated in step one of the test. If the implied value of the goodwill (the remainder left after deducting the estimated fair values of the entity from its calculated overall estimated fair value in step one of the test) is less than the carrying value of goodwill, an impairment loss would be recognized. We have determined through the process noted above that there are no issues of impairment related to our goodwill as of September 30, 2017.
Investment in Variable Interest Entities
Variable Interest Entities (“VIEs”) are defined by GAAP as entities in which equity investors do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. If an entity is determined to be a VIE, it must be consolidated by the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the enterprise that has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance, absorbs the majority of the entity’s expected losses, or receives a majority of the entity’s expected residual returns. Generally, expected losses and expected residual returns are the anticipated negative and positive variability, respectively, in the estimated fair value of the VIE’s net assets. When we make an investment, we assess whether the investment represents a variable interest in a VIE and, if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Incorrect assumptions or assessments may result in an inaccurate determination of the primary beneficiary. The result could be the consolidation of an entity acquired or formed in the future that would otherwise not have been consolidated or the non-consolidation of such an entity that would otherwise have been consolidated.
We evaluate each investment to determine whether it represents variable interests in a VIE. Further, we evaluate the sufficiency of the entities’ equity investment at risk to absorb expected losses, and whether as a group, the equity has the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. See Note 4 to our accompanying consolidated financial statements for further detail on our investment in variable interest entities.
Interest Rate Derivatives
We periodically enter into interest rate derivative agreements to hedge our exposure to changing interest rates on variable rate debt instruments. As required by GAAP, we record all derivatives on the balance sheet at estimated fair value. We reassess the effectiveness of our derivatives designated as cash flow hedges on a regular basis to determine if they continue to be highly effective and also to determine if the forecasted transactions remain highly probable. Currently, we do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.
The changes in estimated fair value of interest rate swap agreements designated as effective cash flow hedges are recorded in other comprehensive income (“OCI”), and subsequently reclassified to earnings when the hedged transactions occur. Changes in the estimated fair values of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment, if any, would be recorded as gain/(loss) on interest rate swap in the consolidated statements of income. The estimated fair value of the interest rate derivative agreement is recorded as interest rate derivative asset or as interest rate derivative liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Amounts received or paid under interest rate derivative agreements are recorded as interest expense in the consolidated income statements as incurred. When Piedmont settles forward starting swap agreements for gains/losses, the result is recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income and is amortized as an offset/increase to interest expense over the term of the respective notes on a straight line basis (which approximates the effective interest method). All of our interest rate derivative agreements as of September 30, 2017 are designated as effective cash flow hedges. See Note 5 to our accompanying consolidated financial statements for further detail on our interest rate derivatives.
Stock-based Compensation
We have issued stock-based compensation in the form of restricted stock to our employees and directors. For employees, such compensation has been issued pursuant to our Long-term Incentive Compensation ("LTIC") program. The LTIC program is comprised of an annual deferred stock grant component and a multi-year performance share component. Awards granted pursuant to the annual deferred stock component are considered equity awards and expensed straight-line over the vesting period, with issuances recorded as a reduction to additional paid in capital. Awards granted pursuant to the performance share component are considered liability awards and are expensed over the service period, with issuances recorded as a reduction to accrued expense. The compensation expense recognized related to both of these award types is recorded as property operating costs for those employees whose job is related to property operation and as general and administrative expense for all other employees and
directors in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. See Note 10 to our accompanying consolidated financial statements for further detail on our stock-based compensation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") has issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ("ASU 2014-09") and Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) ("ASU 2016-08"). The amendments in ASU 2014-09, which are further clarified in ASU 2016-08, as well as Accounting Standards Update 2016-10, Accounting Standards Update 2016-12, and Accounting Standards Update 2016-20 (collectively the "Revenue Recognition Amendments"), change the criteria for the recognition of certain revenue streams to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services using a five-step determination process. Steps 1 through 5 involve (i) identifying contracts with a customer, (ii) identifying the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determining the transaction price, (iv) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations, and (v) recognizing revenue as an entity satisfies a performance obligation. The revenues impacted by the Revenue Recognition Amendments include a portion of our tenant reimbursement revenues and property management fee revenues. Lease contracts and reimbursement revenues associated with property taxes and insurance are specifically excluded from the Revenue Recognition Amendments. The Revenue Recognition Amendments are effective in the first quarter of 2018 for us. Management has substantially completed its initial assessment of the impact of adoption of the Revenue Recognition Amendments. Approximately 90% of our total revenues are derived from either long-term leases with our tenants or reimbursement of property tax and insurance expenses, which are excluded from the scope of the Revenue Recognition Amendments. In addition, based on management's assessment to date, we do not expect the timing of the recognition of reimbursement revenue and revenue from management agreements to change as a result of the new guidance, though certain classifications will change between rental revenue and tenant reimbursements. Finally, management has determined, and the FASB has confirmed, that the evaluation of non-lease components under the new Revenue Recognition Amendments will not be effective until Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), ("ASU 2016-02") becomes effective (see further discussion below), which will be first quarter of 2019 for us. Although management continues to evaluate the guidance and disclosures required by the Revenue Recognition Amendments, we do not anticipate any material impact to our consolidated financial statements as a result of adoption.
The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-05, Other Income—Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610-20): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets ("ASU 2017-05"). The provisions of ASU 2017-05 define the term "in substance nonfinancial asset" as a financial asset promised to a counterparty in a contract if substantially all of the fair value of the assets (recognized and unrecognized) is concentrated in nonfinancial assets. Further, it states that nonfinancial assets should be derecognized once the counterparty obtains control. Finally, the amendments provide clarification for partial sales of nonfinancial assets. ASU 2017-05 is effective concurrent with the Revenue Recognition Amendments (detailed above), which will be the first quarter of 2018 for us. Although management continues to evaluate the guidance and disclosures required by ASU 2017-05, we do not anticipate a material change in how we recognize, measure, and classify the gain or loss on the disposition of real estate in our consolidated financial statements as a result of adoption.
The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10), Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities ("ASU 2016-01"). The amendments in ASU 2016-01 require equity investments, except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, to be measured at estimated fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. Additionally, ASU 2016-01 simplifies the impairment assessment of equity investments, and eliminates certain disclosure requirements. The amendments in ASU 2016-01 are effective in the first quarter of 2018, and we do not anticipate any material impact to our consolidated financial statements as a result of adoption.
The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230),Restricted Cash (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) ("ASU 2016-18"). The provisions of ASU 2016-18 require entities to show changes in restricted cash and cash equivalents in addition to cash and cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. As a result, entities will no longer present transfers between restricted and unrestricted cash in the statement of cash flows. Disclosures are required to reconcile the amount presented on the statement of cash flows to the balance sheet, as well as disclosing the nature of restriction on the restricted cash balances. ASU 2016-18 is effective for us in the first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted. We do not anticipate any material impact to our consolidated financial statements as a result of adoption.
The FASB has issued ASU 2016-02, which fundamentally changes the definition of a lease, as well as the accounting for operating leases by requiring lessees to recognize assets and liabilities which arise from the lease, consisting of a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset, representing the right to use the leased asset over the term of the lease. Accounting for leases by lessors is substantially unchanged from prior practice as lessors will continue to recognize lease revenue
on a straight-line basis; however, ASU 2016-02 defines certain tenant reimbursements as non-lease components which will be subject to the guidance under ASU 2014-09. The amendments in ASU 2016-02 are effective in the first quarter of 2019, and we are currently evaluating the potential impact of adoption.
The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326),Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"). The provisions of ASU 2016-13 replace the "incurred loss" approach with an "expected loss" model for impairing trade and other receivables, held-to-maturity debt securities, net investment in leases, and off-balance-sheet credit exposures, which will generally result in earlier recognition of allowances for credit losses. Additionally, the provisions change the classification of credit losses related to available-for-sale securities to an allowance, rather than a direct reduction of the amortized cost of the securities. ASU 2016-13 is effective in the first quarter of 2020, with early adoption permitted as of January 1, 2019. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adoption.
The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-04, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350),Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment ("ASU 2017-04"). The provisions of ASU 2017-04 simplify how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test, which is generally performed annually unless events or circumstances arise which would necessitate evaluating the carrying value for impairment in the interim. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a entity’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill by determining the fair value of its assets and liabilities (including unrecognized assets and liabilities) following the procedures that would be required in a business combination. Under the provisions of ASU 2017-04, an entity would instead recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the entity’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that entity. ASU 2017-04 is effective in the first quarter of 2020, with early adoption permitted as of the first interim or annual impairment test of goodwill after January 1, 2017. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of adoption.

ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our future income, cash flows, and estimated fair values of our financial instruments depend in part upon prevailing market interest rates. Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency, exchange rates, commodity prices, and equity prices. OurAs of September 30, 2022, our potential for exposure to market risk includes interest rate fluctuations in connection with borrowings under our $500$600 Million Unsecured 20152022 Line of Credit, $150 million of our $300$250 Million Unsecured 2011 Term Loan, the $300 Million Unsecured 20132018 Term Loan, and the $170$200 Million Unsecured 2015 Term Loan.Loan Facility. As a result, the primary market risk to which we believe we are exposed is interest rate risk. Many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations, and other factors that are beyond our control contribute to interest rate risk. risk, including changes in the method pursuant to which LIBOR rates and SOFR rates are determined. Furthermore, the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates LIBOR, has announced that USD LIBOR will no longer by published after June 30, 2023. Piedmont has completed an initial evaluation of its credit agreements which reference LIBOR and determined that each of these agreements already contain "fallback" language allowing for the establishment of an alternate rate of interest that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the U.S. at that time by Piedmont and the respective agent, as defined in the respective agreements.
Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flow primarily through a low-to-moderate level of overall borrowings, as well as managing the variability in rate fluctuations on our outstanding debt. As such, all of our debt other than the $500$600 Million Unsecured 20152022 Line of Credit, and $170$150 million of our $250 Million Unsecured 20152018 Term Loan and our $200 Million Unsecured Term Loan Facility is currently based on fixed or effectively-fixed interest rates to hedge against volatility in the credit markets.
We do not enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes, as such all of our debt and derivative instruments were entered into for other than trading purposes.
The estimated fair value of our debt was approximately $1.7$2.0 billion and $2.0$1.9 billion as of September 30, 20172022 and December 31, 2016,2021, respectively. Our interest rate swap agreements in place atas of September 30, 20172022 and December 31, 20162021 carried a notional amount totaling $600$100 million with a weighted-average fixed interest rate (not including the corporate credit spread) of 1.89%3.56%.
As of September 30, 2017,2022, our total outstanding debt subject to fixed, or effectively fixed, interest rates totaling approximately $1.6 billion has an average effective interest rate of approximately 3.59%3.58% per annum with expirations ranging from 20182023 to 2024.2032. A change in the market interest rate impacts the net financial instrument position of our fixed-rate debt portfolio but has no impact on interest incurred or cash flows.flows for that portfolio.
As of September 30, 2017,2022, we had no amounts$162.0 million outstanding on our $500$600 Million Unsecured 20152022 Line of Credit. Our $500$600 Million Unsecured 20152022 Line of Credit currently has a stated rate of LIBORAdjusted SOFR plus 1.00%0.85% per annum (based on our current corporate credit rating) or the prime, resulting in a total interest rate at our discretion.of 3.86%. The current stated interest rate spread on $150 million of the $170$250 Million Unsecured 20152018 Term Loan that is not effectively fixed through interest rate swaps is LIBOR plus 1.125%0.95% (based on our current corporate credit rating), which, as of September 30, 2017, results2022, resulted in a total interest rate on $150 million of the $250 Million Unsecured 2018 Term Loan of 4.07%. Our $200 Million Unsecured Term Loan Facility has a stated rate of Adjusted SOFR plus 1.00% per annum (based on our current corporate credit rating), resulting in a total interest rate of 2.37%4.13%. To the extent that we borrow additional funds in the future under the $500$600 Million Unsecured 20152022 Line of Credit or potential future variable-rate lines of credit, we would have exposure to increases in interest rates, which would potentially increase our cost of debt. Additionally, a 1.0% increase in variable interest rates on our existing outstanding borrowings as of September 30, 20172022 would increase interest expense approximately $1.7$5.1 million on a per annum basis.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Management’s Conclusions Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in RuleRules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the quarterly period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report in providing a reasonable level of assurance that information we are required to disclose in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in applicable SEC rules and forms, including providing a reasonable level of assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Such election will take place at the settlement of each quarterly dividend in which there are participants in our DRP, and may change from quarter to quarter based on our judgment of the best use of proceeds for Piedmont. |
