EXPLANATORY NOTE


This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 of American Assets Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and American Assets Trust, L.P., a Maryland limited partnership, of which American Assets Trust, Inc. is the parent company and sole general partner. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references in this report to “we,” “us,” “our” or “the company” refer to American Assets Trust, Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries, including American Assets Trust, L.P. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references in this report to “our Operating Partnership” or “the Operating Partnership” refer to American Assets Trust, L.P. together with its consolidated subsidiaries.


American Assets Trust, Inc. operates as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, and is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2023, American Assets Trust, Inc. owned an approximate 73.2%78.8% partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. The remaining 26.8%approximately 21.2% partnership interests are owned by non-affiliated investors and certain of our directors and executive officers. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, American Assets Trust, Inc. has full, exclusive and complete authority and control over the Operating Partnership’s day-to-day management and business, can cause it to enter into certain major transactions, including acquisitions, dispositions and debt refinancings, and can cause changes in its line of business, capital structure and distribution policies.


The companyAmerican Assets Trust, Inc. believes that combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of American Assets Trust, Inc. and the Operating Partnership into a single report will result in the following benefits:


better reflects how management and the analyst community view the business as a single operating unit;
enhance investors' understanding of American Assets Trust, Inc. and the Operating Partnership by enabling them to view the business as a whole and in the same manner as management;
greater efficiency for American Assets Trust, Inc. and the Operating Partnership and resulting savings in time, effort and expense; and
greater efficiency for investors by reducing duplicative disclosure by providing a single document for their review.


ManagementThe management of American Assets Trust, Inc. and the Operating Partnership is the same and operates American Assets Trust, Inc. and the Operating Partnership as one enterprise. The management of American Assets Trust, Inc. and the Operating Partnership are the same.


There are a fewcertain differences between American Assets Trust, Inc. and the Operating Partnership, which are reflected in the disclosures in this report. We believe it is important to understand the differences between American Assets Trust, Inc. and the Operating Partnership in the context of how American Assets Trust, Inc. and the Operating Partnership operate as an interrelated consolidated company. American Assets Trust, Inc. is a REIT, whose only material asset is its ownership of partnership interests of the Operating Partnership. As a result, American Assets Trust, Inc. does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, issuing public equity from time to time and guaranteeing certain debt of the Operating Partnership. American Assets Trust, Inc. itself does not hold any indebtedness. The Operating Partnership holds substantially all the assets of the company, directly or indirectly holds the ownership interests in the company’scompany's real estate ventures, conducts the operations of the business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly-traded equity. Except for net proceeds from public equity issuances by American Assets Trust, Inc., which are generally contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for partnership units, the Operating Partnership generates the capital required by the company’sAmerican Assets Trust, Inc.'s business through the Operating Partnership’s operations, by the Operating Partnership’s direct or indirect incurrence of indebtedness or through the issuance of operating partnership units.


Noncontrolling interests and stockholders’ equity and partners’ capital are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of American Assets Trust, Inc. and those of American Assets Trust, L.P. The partnership interests in the Operating Partnership that are not owned by American Assets Trust, Inc. are accounted for as partners’ capital in the Operating Partnership’s financial statements and as noncontrolling interests in American Assets Trust, Inc.’s financial statements. To help investors understand the significant differences between the companyAmerican Assets Trust, Inc. and the Operating Partnership, this report presents the following separate sections for each of American Assets Trust, Inc. and the Operating Partnership:

Basis of Presentation
Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company,company, our Operating Partnership and our subsidiaries. The equity interests of other investors in our Operating Partnership are reflected as noncontrolling interests.
The company follows the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") guidance for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and requires the performance of a qualitative rather than a quantitative analysis to determine the primary beneficiary of a VIE. Under this guidance, an entity would be required to consolidate a VIE if it has (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. American Assets Trust, Inc. has concluded that the Operating Partnership is a VIE, and because American Assets Trust, Inc. has both the power and the rights to control the Operating Partnership, American Assets Trust, Inc. is the primary beneficiary and is required to continue to consolidate the Operating Partnership. Substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the company are related to the operating partnership VIE.
All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Companycompany and the Operating Partnership have been prepared in accordance with the rules applicable to Form 10-Q and include all information and footnotes required for interim financial statement presentation, but do not include all disclosures required under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments, except as otherwise noted) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes therein included in the Company'scompany's and Operating Partnership's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2022.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that in certain circumstances affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses. These estimates are prepared using our best judgment, after considering past, current and expected events and economic conditions. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Any reference to the number of properties, number of units, square footage, employee numbers or percentages of beneficial ownership of our shares are unaudited and outside the scope of our independent registered public accounting firm’s review of our financial statements in accordance with the standards of the United States Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.

Significant Accounting Policies


We describe our significant accounting policies in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. Except for the adoption of the accounting standards during the first quarter of 2017 as discussed below, there2022. There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2023.

Segment Information
Segment information is prepared on the same basis that our chief operating decision maker reviews information for operational decision-making purposes. We operate in four business segments: the acquisition, redevelopment, ownership and management of retailoffice real estate, officeretail real estate, multifamily real estate and mixed-use real estate. The products for our retailoffice segment primarily include rental of retailoffice space and other tenant services, including tenant reimbursements, parking and storage

space rental. The products for our officeretail segment primarily include rental of officeretail space and other tenant services, including tenant reimbursements, parking and storage space rental. The products for our multifamily segment include rental of apartments and other tenant services. The products of our mixed-use segment include rental of retail space and other tenant services, including tenant reimbursements, parking and storage space rental and operation of a 369-room369-room all-suite hotel.
Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable
Our leases with tenants are classified as operating leases. Substantially all such leases contain fixed rent escalations which occur at specified times during the term of the lease. Base rents are recognized on a straight-line basis from when the tenant controls the space through the term of the related lease, net of valuation adjustments, based on management's assessment of credit, collection and other business risks.
We make estimates of the collectability of our current accounts receivable and straight-line rents receivable which require significant judgment by management. The collectability of receivables is affected by numerous different factors including current economic conditions, the impact of tenant bankruptcies, the status of collectability of current cash rents receivable, tenants' recent and historical financial and operating results, changes in our tenants' credit ratings, communications between our operating personnel and tenants, the extent of security deposits and letters of credit held with respect to tenants, and the ability of tenants to perform under the terms of their lease agreement. The provision for doubtful accounts at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was approximately $1.8 million and $2.1 million, respectively.
Rent Concessions – COVID-19
Due to the impacts of COVID-19, from 2020 through 2022 we provided lease concessions to certain tenants, primarily
within the retail segment, in the form of rent deferrals and abatements. We assess each lease concession and determine whether
it represents a lease modification under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842, Leases ("ASC 842").
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-1, Business Combinations: Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The pronouncement changes the definition of a business to assist entities with evaluating when a set of transferred assets and activities is a business. The pronouncement requires an entity to evaluate if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets; if so, the set of transferred assets and activities is not a business. The pronouncement is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2017-01 effective January 1, 2017. For the period from January 1, 2017 through September 30, 2017, the Company acquired three properties for which we concluded that substantially all of the fair value of the assets acquired were concentrated in a single identifiable asset and that the assets therefore did not meet the definition of a business under ASU 2017-01. Acquisition transaction costs associated with these property acquisitions were approximately $0.2 million and were capitalized to real estate investments.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Restricted Cash. This pronouncement will require companies to include restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The pronouncement will require a disclosure of a reconciliation between the statement of financial position and the statement of cash flows when the balance sheet includes more than one line item for cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and restricted cash equivalents. Entities with material restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents balances will be required to disclose the nature of the restrictions. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted, and will be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , we had $10.1 million and $10.0 million of restricted cash, respectively, on our consolidated balance sheets. Upon adoption of this ASU, restricted cash balances will be included along with cash and cash equivalents as of the end of period and beginning of period, respectively, on our consolidated statement of cash flows for all periods presented; separate line items showing changes in restricted cash balances will be eliminated from our consolidated statement of cash flows.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which amends ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation.  This pronouncement simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2016-09 in the first quarter of 2017 and the adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued an ASU that establishes a right-of-use model that requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than twelve months. The accounting applied by lessors under this ASU is largely unchanged. Leases will be either classified as sales-type, finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The ASU also requires significant additional disclosures about the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows from leases. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessors for sales-type, direct financing, and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. We are in the process of evaluating the impact this pronouncement will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014,2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), which provides companies with optional practical expedients to ease the accounting burden for contract modifications associated with transitioning away from Contracts with Customers. The pronouncement was issuedLIBOR and other interbank offered rates that have been or are expected to clarifybe discontinued as part of reference rate reform. For hedges, the principles for recognizing revenueguidance generally allows changes to the reference rate and other critical terms without having to develop a common revenue standardde-designate the hedging relationship, and disclosure requirements for U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company will adopt ASU 2014-09permits the shortcut method to continue to be applied. For contract modifications, changes in the first quarterreference rate or other critical terms will be treated as a continuation of 2018 using the modified retrospective approach.prior contract. This guidance can be applied immediately, however, it is generally only available with a sunset date of December 31, 2024. We have begun our process for implementing this standard, including performing a preliminary revieware still evaluating the impact of all revenue streams to identifyreference rate reform and whether we will apply any differences in the timing, measurement or presentation of revenue recognition. As of September 30,

these practical expedients.

2017, we have completed our assessment of the impact of this pronouncement for revenue generated from our Multifamily segment. The majority of revenue from our Multifamily segment is generated from leases that are specifically excluded from ASC 606. Additionally, we do not believe that ASC 606 will impact the amount or timing of revenue recognition for other revenue types generated from the Multifamily segment. We are continuing to evaluate this standard for revenue streams for our other segments and the allowable methods of adoption; however, the majority of our revenue from these other segments also consists of rental income from leasing arrangements, which are excluded from this standard. As the Company progresses further in its analysis, the scope of this assessment could be expanded to include other contract elements that could have an accounting impact under the new standard. The Company is also continuing to assess the potential effect that this new standard is expected to have on our consolidated financial statements as it relates to our leasing arrangements with our tenants and in concert with our assessment and anticipated adoption of the new leasing guidance under ASU 2016-02, Leases (see above).  The ultimate impacts are currently unknown or not reasonably estimable at this time. The Company continues to evaluate other areas of the standard and is currently assessing the impact on its consolidated financial statements and notes to its consolidated financial statements and cannot reasonably estimate quantitative information related to the impact of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements at this time.

NOTE 4.3. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
A fair value measurement is based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value is as follows:


1.Level 1 Inputs—quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
2.Level 2 Inputs—observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities
3.Level 3 Inputs—unobservable inputs
Except as disclosed below,1.Level 1 Inputs—quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
2.Level 2 Inputs—observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities
3.Level 3 Inputs—unobservable inputs
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are reasonable estimates of fair value, using Level 1 inputs, because of the carrying amountsshort-term nature of our financial instruments approximate their fair value.these instruments. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
We measure the fair value of our deferred compensation liability, which is included in other liabilities and deferred credits on the consolidated balance sheet, on a recurring basis using Level 2 inputs. We measure the fair value of this liability based on prices provided by independent market participants that are based on observable inputs using market-based valuation techniques.


The fair value of the interest rate swap agreements are based on the estimated amounts we would receive or pay to terminate the contract at the reporting date and are determined using interest rate pricing models and interest rate related observable inputs. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivatives that are designated as cash flow hedges are being recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and will be subsequently reclassified into earnings during the period in which the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings.

We incorporate credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our own non-performance risk and the respective counterparty’s non-performance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of our derivative contractcontracts for the effect of non-performance risk, we considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts, and guarantees.

Although we have determined that the majority of the inputs used to value our derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with itsour derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. However, as of SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 we have assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of our derivative position and have determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of our derivative. As a result, we have determined that our derivative valuation in its entirety is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of our secured notes payable and unsecured senior guaranteed notes are sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates. Discounted cash flow analysis using observable market interest rates (Level 2) is generally used to estimate the fair value of our secured notes payable, using rates ranging from 3.8%5.0% to 4.5%6.0%.
Considerable judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of financial instruments. The estimates of fair value presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized upon disposition of the financial instruments. The carrying values of our revolving line of credit and term loanloans set forth below are deemed to be at fair value since the outstanding debt is directly tied to monthly LIBORSecured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) contracts. A summary of the carrying amount and fair value of our secured financial instruments, all of which are based on Level 2 inputs, is as follows (in thousands):

NOTE 5.4. DERIVATIVE AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES


Our objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements.  To accomplish these objectives, we primarily use interest rate swaps as part of our interest rate risk management strategy.  Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for us making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

On March 29, 2016, we entered into a forward-starting interest rate swap contract (the "March 2016 Swap") with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, to reduce the interest rate variability exposure of the projected interest cash flows of our then prospective new ten-year private placement.  The forward-starting ten-year swap contract had a notional amount of $150 million, a termination date of March 31, 2027, a fixed pay rate of 1.8800%, and a receive rate equal to the three-month LIBOR, with fixed rate payments due semi-annually commencing September 29, 2017, floating payments due semi-annually commencing September 29, 2017, and floating reset dates the first day of each quarterly period.  The forward-starting ten-year swap contract accrual period, March 31, 2017 to March 31, 2027, was designed to match the expected tenor of the then prospective new ten-year debt private placement.

On April 7, 2016, we entered into a forward-starting interest rate swap contract (the "April 2016 Swap") with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, to reduce the interest rate variability exposure of the projected interest cash flows of our then prospective new ten-year private placement. The forward-starting ten-year swap contract had a notional amount of $100 million, a termination date of March 31, 2027, a fixed pay rate of 1.7480%, and a receive rate equal to the three-month LIBOR, with fixed rate payments due semi-annually commencing September 29, 2017, floating payments due semi-annually commencing September 29, 2017, and floating reset dates the first day of each quarterly period. The forward-starting ten-year swap contract accrual period, March 31, 2017 to March 31, 2027, was designed to match the expected tenor of our then prospective new ten-year debt private placement.

On January 18, 2017, we settled the March 2016 Swap and April 2016 Swap, resulting in a gain of approximately $10.4 million. This gain is included in accumulated other comprehensive income and will be amortized to interest expense over the life of the Series D Notes (as defined below). The forward-starting interest rate swap contracts have been deemed to be highly effective cash flow hedges and we elected to designate all the forward-starting swap contracts as accounting hedges.

On April 25, 2017, we entered into a treasury lock contract (the "April 2017 Treasury Lock") with Bank of America, National Association, to reduce the interest rate variability exposure of the projected interest cash flows of our then prospective new twelve-year private placement. The treasury lock contract had a notional amount of $100 million, termination date of May 18, 2017, a fixed pay rate of 2.313%, and a receive rate equal to the ten-year treasury rate on the settlement date.

On May 11, 2017, we settled the April 2017 Treasury Lock, resulting in a gain of approximately $0.7 million. This gain is included in accumulated other comprehensive income and will be amortized to interest expense over ten years. The treasury lock contract has been deemed to be a highly effective cash flow hedge and we elected to designate the treasury lock contract as an accounting hedge.

On May 31, 2017, we entered into a treasury lock contract (the "May 2017 Treasury Lock") with Bank of America, National Association, to reduce the interest rate variability exposure of the projected interest cash flows of our then prospective new seven-year private placement. The treasury lock contract had a notional amount of $100 million, termination date of July 26, 2017, a fixed pay rate of 2.064%, and a receive rate equal to the seven-year treasury rate on the settlement date.

On June 23, 2017, we settled the May 2017 Treasury Lock, resulting in a loss of approximately $0.5 million. This loss is included in accumulated other comprehensive income and will be amortized to interest expense over seven years. The treasury lock contract has been deemed to be a highly effective cash flow hedge and we elected to designate the treasury lock contract as an accounting hedge.

During the next twelve months, we estimate the cash flow hedges in place will reduce interest expense by approximately $0.4 million.
The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of the derivative.  This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivative, including the period to maturity, and counterparty credit risk and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves, and implied volatilities.  The fair value of the interest rate swap is determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts (or payments) and the discounted expected variable cash payments (or receipts).  The variable cash payments (or receipts) are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves.

Certain loans require us to comply with various financial covenants. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2023, the Operating Partnership was in compliance with these financial covenants.


Amended Term Loan Agreement

On January 9, 2018, we entered into the Third Amendment to the Term Loan Agreement (as so amended, the "Term Loan Agreement"), which maintains the seven years $150 million unsecured term loan (referred to herein as Term Loan B and Term Loan C) to the Operating Partnership that matures on March 1, 2023 (the “$150mm Term Loan”). Effective as of March 1, 2018, borrowings under the Term Loan Agreement with respect to the $150mm Term Loan bear interest at floating rates equal to, at the Operating Partnership’s option, either (1) LIBOR, plus a spread which ranges from 1.20% to 1.70% based on the Operating Partnership’s consolidated leverage ratio, or (2) a base rate equal to the highest of (a) 0%, (b) the prime rate, (c) the federal funds rate plus 50 bps or (d) the Eurodollar rate plus 100 bps, in each case plus a spread which ranges from 0.70% to 1.35% based on the Operating Partnership’s consolidated leverage ratio. Additionally, the Operating Partnership may elect for borrowings to bear interest based on a ratings-based pricing grid as per the Operating Partnership’s then-applicable investment grade debt ratings under the terms set forth in the Term Loan Agreement.

On January 5, 2023, we entered into the Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement, which increased the aggregate unsecured borrowings from $150 million to $225 million and extended the maturity date of Term Loan B and Term Loan C from March 1, 2023 to January 5, 2025, with one, twelve-month extension option, subject to certain conditions. Borrowings under the Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement bear interest at floating rates equal to, at the Operating Partnership’s option, either (1) the applicable SOFR, plus a SOFR adjustment and a spread (based on the Operating Partnership’s consolidated leverage ratio and applicable year of Term Loan B and Term Loan C) ranging from 1.20% to 1.90%, or (2) a base rate equal to the highest of (a) 0%, (b) the prime rate, (c) the federal funds rate plus 50 bps and (d) the one-month SOFR, plus a SOFR adjustment and 100 bps, plus, in each case, a spread (based on the Operating Partnership’s consolidated leverage ratio and applicable year of the Term Loan B and Term Loan C) ranging from 0.20% to 0.90%. Additionally, the Operating Partnership may elect for borrowings to bear interest based on a ratings-based pricing grid based on the Operating Partnership’s then-applicable investment grade debt ratings under the terms set forth in the Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement.

Prior to entering into the Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement, the Operating Partnership entered into interest rate swap agreements that are intended to fix the interest rate associated with Term Loan B and Term Loan C at approximately (1) 5.47% for the first year of Term Loan B and Term Loan C and (2) 5.57% for the second year of Term Loan B and Term Loan C, subject to adjustments based on the company’s consolidated leverage ratio.

Third Amended and Restated Credit Facility

In October 2020, we exercised an option to extend Term Loan A up to three times, with each such extension for a 12-month period. The foregoing extension options are exercisable by the Operating Partnership subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Effective as of January 9, 2017, the Operating Partnership exercised the second of three options to extend the maturity date of Term Loan A to January 9, 2018.2022, subject to certain conditions. Additionally, in connection with the First Amendment, borrowings under the Second Amended and Restated Credit Facility with respect to Term Loan A bore interest at floating rates equal to, at our option, either (1) LIBOR, plus a spread which ranges from 1.20% to 1.70% based on our consolidated total leverage ratio, or (2) a base rate equal to the highest of (a) the prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 50 bps or (c) the Eurodollar rate plus 100 bps, in each case plus a spread which ranges from 0.20% to 0.70% based on our consolidated total leverage ratio.

Earnings Per Unit of the Operating Partnership
Basic earnings per unit (“EPU”) of the Operating Partnership is computed by dividing income applicable to unitholders by the weighted average Operating Partnership units outstanding, as adjusted for the effect of participating securities. Operating Partnership units granted in equity-based payment transactions that have non-forfeitable dividend equivalent rights are considered participating securities prior to vesting. The impact of unvested Operating Partnership unit awards on EPU has been calculated using the two-class method whereby earnings are allocated to the unvested Operating Partnership unit awards based on distributions and the unvested Operating Partnership units’ participation rights in undistributed earnings.
The calculation of diluted earnings per unitEPU for the three month periodsmonths ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 and 20162022 does not include the weighted average of 231,977571,999 and 169,963483,110 unvested outstanding Operating Partnership units, respectively, as these equity securities are either considered contingently issuable or the effect of including these equity securities was anti-dilutive to income from continuing operations and net income attributable to the unitholders. The calculation of diluted earnings per unitEPU for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 and 20162022 does not include the weighted average of 232,041572,623 and 171,760484,295 unvested outstanding Operating Partnership units, respectively, as these equity securities are either considered contingently issuable or the effect of including these equity securities was anti-dilutive to income from continuing operations and net income attributable to the unitholders.

Taxability of Dividends
Earnings and profits, which determine the taxability of distributions to stockholders and holders of common units, may differ from income reported for financial reporting purposes due to the differences for federal income tax purposes in the treatment of revenue recognition and compensation expense and in the basis of depreciable assets and estimated useful lives used to compute depreciation.
Stock-Based Compensation


We follow the FASB guidance related to stockstock-based compensation which establishes financial accounting and reporting standards for stock-based employee compensation plans, including all arrangements by which employees receive shares of stock or other equity instruments of the employer.  The guidance also defines a fair value-based method of accounting for an employee stock optionaward or similar equity instrument.
The following table summarizes the activity of restricted stock awards during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017:2023:

We recognize noncash compensation expense ratably over the vesting period, and accordingly, we recognized $0.6$2.1 million and $2.0 million in noncash compensation expense for each of the three month periodsmonths ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 and 2016,2022, respectively, which is included in general and administrative expenseexpenses on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income. We recognized $1.9$4.1 million and $3.5 million in noncash compensation expensesexpense for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 and 2016.2022, respectively. Unrecognized compensation expense was $2.0$7.9 million at SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2023.
Earnings Per Share
We have calculated earnings per share (“EPS”) under the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation methodology whereby EPS for each class of common stock and participating security is calculated according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The weighted average unvested shares outstanding, which are considered participating securities, were 231,977571,999 and 169,963483,110 for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 and 2016,2022, respectively, and 232,041572,623 and 171,760484,295 for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 and 2016,2022, respectively. Therefore, we have allocated our earnings for basic and diluted EPS between common shares and unvested shares as these unvested shares have nonforfeitable dividend equivalent rights.
Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the net income applicable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common and dilutive instruments outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. For the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 and 2016,2022, diluted shares exclude incentive restricted stock as these awards are considered contingently issuable. Additionally, the unvested restricted stock awards subject to time vesting are anti-dilutive for all periods presented, and accordingly, have been excluded from the weighted average common shares used to compute diluted EPS.

NOTE 11.10. INCOME TAXES
We elected to be taxed as a REIT and operate in a manner that allows us to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes commencing with our initial taxable year. As a REIT, we are generally not subject to corporate level income tax on the earnings distributed currently to our stockholders that we derive from our REIT qualifying activities. Taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through our TRS is subject to federal and state income taxes.
We lease our hotel property to a wholly owned TRS that is subject to federal and state income taxes. We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between GAAP carrying amounts and their respective tax bases. Additionally, we classify certain state taxes as income taxes for financial reporting purposes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes.Taxes.
A deferred tax asset is included in our consolidated balance sheets of $0.7 million and $0.7 million, and a deferred tax liability is included in our consolidated balance sheets of $0.2$0.9 million and $0.3$0.9 million as of SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 and December 31, 2016,2022, respectively, in relation to real estate asset basis differences of property subject to the Texas margin taxstate taxes based on income and certain prepaid expenses of our TRS.
Income tax expense is recorded in other (expense) income, (expense), net on our consolidated statements of comprehensive income. For the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2023, we recorded income tax expense of $0.2 million and income tax benefit of $0.03$0.5 million, respectively. For the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016,2022, we recorded income tax expense of $0.6$0.2 million for each period.and $0.4 million, respectively.

We are currently a party to various legal proceedings. We accrue a liability for litigation if an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. If an unfavorable outcome is probable and a reasonable estimate of the loss is a range, we accrue the best estimate within the range; however, if no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, the minimum amount within the range is accrued. Legal fees related to litigation are expensed as incurred. We do not believe that the ultimate outcome of these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, could have a material adverse effect on our financial position or overall trends in results of operations; however, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties. Also, under our leases, tenants are typically obligated to indemnify us from and against all liabilities, costs and expenses imposed upon or asserted against us as owner of the properties due to certain matters relating to the operation of the properties by the tenant.

We have management agreements with Outrigger Hotels & Resorts or an affiliate thereof (“Outrigger”) pursuant to which Outrigger manages each of the retail and hotel portions of the Waikiki Beach Walk property. Under the management agreement with Outrigger relating to the retail portion of Waikiki Beach Walk (the “retail management agreement”), we pay Outrigger a monthly management fee of 3.0% of net revenues from the retail portion of Waikiki Beach Walk. Pursuant to the terms of the retail management agreement, if the agreement is terminated in certain instances, including our election not to repair damage or destruction at the property, a condemnation or our failure to make required working capital infusions, we would be obligated to pay Outrigger a termination fee equal to the sum of the management fees paid for the two calendar months immediately preceding the termination date.

Our Del Monte Center property has ongoing environmental remediation related to ground water contamination. The environmental issue existed at purchase and remains in remediation. The final stages of the remediation will include routine, long term ground monitoring by the appropriate regulatory agency over the next five years to seven years. The work performed is financed through an escrow account funded by the seller upon purchase of the Del Monte Center. We believe the funds in the escrow account are sufficient for the remaining work to be performed. However, if further work is required costing more than the remaining escrow funds, we couldmay be required to pay such overage, although we may have a contractual claim for such costs against the prior owner or our environmental remediation consultant.
In connection with our initial public offering, we entered into tax protection agreements with certain limited partners of our Operating Partnership. These agreements provide that if we dispose of any interest with respect to Carmel Country Plaza, Carmel Mountain Plaza, Del Monte Center, Loma Palisades, Lomas Santa Fe Plaza, Waikele Center or the Torrey Plaza (formerly ICW Plaza) portion of Torrey Reserve Campus, in a taxable transaction during the period from the closing of our initial public offering through January 19, 2018, we will indemnify such limited partners for their tax liabilities attributable to their share of the built-in gain that existed with respect to such property interest as of the time of our initial public offering and tax liabilities incurred as a result of the reimbursement payment. Subject to certain exceptions and limitations, the indemnification rights will terminate for any such protected partner that sells, exchanges or otherwise disposes of more than 50% of his or her common units. We have no present intention to sell or otherwise dispose of the properties or interest therein in taxable transactions during the restriction period. If we were to trigger the tax protection provisions under these agreements, we would be required to pay damages in the amount of the taxes owed by these limited partners (plus additional damages in the amount of the taxes incurred as a result of such payment).
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Our properties are located in Southern California, Northern California, Hawaii,Washington, Oregon, Texas and Washington.Hawaii. The ability of the tenants to honor the terms of their respective leases is dependent upon the economic, regulatory, social, and socialhealth factors affecting the markets in which the tenants operate. ThirteenFifteen of our consolidated properties are located in Southern California, which exposes us to greater economic risks than if we owned a more geographically diverse portfolio. Tenants in the retail industry accounted for 32.7%23.7% of total revenues for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2023. This makes us susceptible to demand for retail rental space and subject to the risks associated with an investment in real estate with a concentration of tenants in the retail industry. Furthermore, tenants in the office industry accounted for 33.9%47.4% of total revenues for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2023. This makes us susceptible to demand for office rental space and subject to the risks associated with an investment in real estate with a concentration of tenants in the office industry. For the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 and 2016,2022, no tenant accounted for more than 10% of our total rental revenue.

NOTE 13. OPERATING12. LEASES
Lessor Operating Leases

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Our lease agreements are generally for real estate, and the determination of whether such agreements contain leases generally does not require significant estimates or judgments. We lease real estate under operating leases.

Our leases with office, retail, mixed-use and residential tenants are classified as operating leases. Leases at our office and retail properties and the retail portion of our mixed-use property generally range from three years to ten years (certain leases with anchor tenants may be longer), and in addition to minimum rents, usually provide for cost recoveries for the tenant’s share of certain operating costs andcosts. Our leases may also may include variable lease payments in the form of percentage rents based on the tenant’s level of sales achieved.achieved in excess of a breakpoint threshold. Leases on apartments generally range from 7 to 15 months,, with a majority having 12-month lease terms. Rooms at the hotel portion of our mixed-use property are rented on a nightly basis.
Leases at our office and retail properties and the retail portion of our mixed-use property may contain lease extension options, at our lessee's discretion. The extension options are generally for 3 to 10 years and contain primarily rent at fixed rates or the prevailing market rent. The extension options are generally exercisable 6 to 12 months prior to the expiration of the lease and require the lessee to not be in default of the lease terms.
We attempt to maximize the amount we expect to derive from the underlying real estate property following the end of a lease, to the extent it is not extended.  We maintain a proactive leasing and capital improvement program that, combined with the quality and locations of our properties, has made our properties attractive to tenants. However, the residual value of a real estate property is still subject to various market-specific, asset-specific, and tenant-specific risks and characteristics.

Lessee Operating Leases

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Our lease agreements are generally for real estate, and the determination of whether such agreements contain leases generally does not require significant estimates or judgments. We lease real estate under operating leases.
At The Landmark at One Market, we lease, as lessee, a building adjacent to The Landmark at One Market under an operating lease effective through June 30, 2026, which we have the option to extend until 2031 by way of the remaining five years extension option (the "Annex Lease"). The lease payments under the extension option provided for under the Annex Lease will be equal to the fair rental value at the time the extension option is exercised. The extension option is included in the calculation of the right-of-use asset and lease liability as we are reasonably certain of exercising the extension option.
Our lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. As our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement in determining the present value of lease payments.
Current annual payments under the operating leases are as follows, as of June 30, 2023 (in thousands):

NOTE 17.16. SEGMENT REPORTING
Segment information is prepared on the same basis that our management reviews information for operational decision-making purposes. We operate in four business segments: the acquisition, redevelopment, ownership and management of retailoffice real estate, officeretail real estate, multifamily real estate and mixed-use real estate. The products for our retailoffice segment primarily include rental of retailoffice space and other tenant services, including tenant reimbursements, parking and storage space rental. The products for our officeretail segment primarily include rental of officeretail space and other tenant services, including tenant reimbursements, parking and storage space rental. The products for our multifamily segment include rental of apartments and other tenant services. The products of our mixed-use segment include rental of retail space and other tenant services, including tenant reimbursements, parking and storage space rental and operation of a 369-room369-room all-suite hotel.
We evaluate the performance of our segments based on segment profit, which is defined as property revenue less property expenses. We do not use asset information as a measure to assess performance and make decisions to allocate resources. Therefore, depreciation and amortization expense is not allocated among segments. General and administrative expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense and other income and expense are not included in segment profit as our internal reporting addresses these items on a corporate level.
Segment profit is not a measure of operating income or cash flows from operating activities as measured by GAAP, and it is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs and should not be considered an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Not all companies calculate segment profit in the same manner. We consider segment profit to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income because it assists both investors and management in understanding the core operations of our properties.

Additionally, as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2023, we owned land at fourthree of our properties that we classified as held for development and/or construction in progress. Our core markets include San Diego;Diego, California; the San Francisco Bay Area;Area, California; Bellevue, Washington; Portland, Oregon; Bellevue, Washington;Oregon and Oahu, Hawaii. We are a Maryland corporation formed on July 16, 2010 to acquire the entities owning various controlling and noncontrolling interests in real estate assets owned and/or managed by Ernest S. Rady or his affiliates, including the Ernest Rady Trust U/D/T March 13, 1983, or the Rady Trust, and did not have any operating activity until the consummation of our initial public offering on January 19, 2011. Our Company, as the sole general partner of our Operating Partnership, has control of our Operating Partnership and owned 73.2%78.8% of our Operating Partnership as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2023. Accordingly, we consolidate the assets, liabilities and results of operations of our Operating Partnership.
Acquisitions
On April 28, 2017, we acquired the Pacific Ridge Apartments, a 533 unit, multifamily community, built in 2013 and located in San Diego, California. The purchase price was approximately $232 million, excluding closing costs and prorations. On July 6, 2017, we acquired Gateway Marketplace, an approximately 128,000 square feet dual-grocery anchored shopping center located in Chula Vista, California. The purchase price was approximately $42 million, excluding closing costs and prorations. On September 1, 2017, we acquired the building and related improvements in which Forever 21 and Gold's Gym are currently in tenancy at Del Monte Center for approximately $5.3 million.
These properties were acquired with cash on hand and borrowings under our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.
Critical Accounting Policies
We identified certain critical accounting policies that affect certain of our more significant estimates and assumptions used in preparing our consolidated financial statements in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.2022. We have not made any material changes to these policies during the periods covered by this report.report, other than those described in Footnote 1.


Same-store


We have provided certain information on a total portfolio, same-store and redevelopment same-store basis. Information provided on a same-store basis includes the results of properties that we owned and operated for the entirety of both periods being compared except for properties for which significant redevelopment or expansion occurred during either of the periods being compared, properties under development, properties classified as held for development and properties classified as discontinued operations. Information provided on a redevelopment same-store basis includes the results of properties undergoing significant redevelopment for the entirety or portion of both periods being compared. Same-store and redevelopment same-store isare considered by management to be important measures because they assist in eliminating disparities due to the development, acquisition or disposition of properties during the particular period presented, and thus providesprovide a more consistent performance measure for the comparison of the Company'scompany's stabilized and redevelopment properties, as applicable. Additionally, redevelopment same-store is considered by management to be an important measure because it assists in evaluating the timing of the start and stabilization of our redevelopment opportunities and the impact that these redevelopments have in enhancing our operating performance.
While there is judgment surrounding changes in designations, we typically reclassify significant development, redevelopment or expansion properties into same-store properties once they are stabilized. Properties are deemed stabilized typically at the earlier of (i) reaching 90% occupancy or (ii) four quarters following a property's inclusion in operating real estate. We typically remove properties from same-store properties when the development, redevelopment or expansion has or

is expected to have a significant impact on the property's annualized base rent, occupancy and operating income within the calendar year. Our evaluation of significant impact related to development, redevelopment or expansion activity is based on quantitative and qualitative measures including, but not limited to, the following: the total budgeted cost of planned construction activity compared to the property’s annualized base rent, occupancy and property operating income within the calendar year; percentage of development, redevelopment or expansion square footage to total property square footage; and the ability to maintain historic occupancy and rental rates. In consideration of these measures, we generally remove properties from same-store properties when we see a decline in a property's annualized base rent, occupancy and operating income within the calendar year as a direct result of ongoing redevelopment, development or expansion activity. Acquired properties are classified into same-store properties once we have owned such properties for the entirety of comparable period(s) and the properties are not under significant development or expansion.


32

Below is a summary of our same-store composition for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 and 2016. For the quarter ended September 30, 2017, Torrey Reserve Campus2022. Because Bel-Spring 520 was acquired on March 8, 2022, it was reclassified as a same-store property and Lloyd District Portfolio were removed from non-same-store properties and classified as same-store properties when compared to the designationsis comparable for the quarter ended September 30, 2016. These properties were classified as redevelopment same-store properties in prior periods, however, as construction activity has ceased and comparable periods of operation are available, redevelopment same-store classification is no longer applicable. For the quarter ended September 30, 2017, Pacific Ridge Apartments and Gateway Marketplace were classified as a non-same-store properties as they were acquired on April 28, 2017 and July 6, 2017, respectively.

For the ninethree months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017, Lloyd District Portfolio was transferred into same-store properties due to the completion of development activity at Hassalo on Eighth - Retail, which was completed during the fourth quarter of 2016. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, Pacific Ridge Apartments2023, and Gateway Marketplace wereis classified as non-same-store properties as they were acquired on April 28, 2017 and July 6, 2017, respectively, when compared to the designationsproperty for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2016.2023.


In our determination of same-store and redevelopment same-store properties for the ninethree and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017, Torrey Reserve Campus2023, One Beach Street has been identified as a same-store redevelopment property due to significant constructionredevelopment activity.

Retail same-store net operating income increased approximately 6.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. Office same-store net operating income increased approximately 5.7%0.6% for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 compared to the same period in 2016.2022. Office redevelopment same-store net operating income increased approximately 4.3%0.3% for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 compared to the same period in 2016.2022.

Outlook


We seek growth in earnings, funds from operations and cash flows primarily through a combination of the following: growth in our same-store portfolio, growth in our portfolio from property development and redevelopments and expansion of our portfolio through property acquisitions. Our properties are located in some of the nation's most dynamic, high-barrier-to-entry markets primarily in Southern California, Northern California, Washington, Oregon Washington and Hawaii, which allow us to take advantage of redevelopment opportunities that enhance our operating performance through renovation, expansion, reconfiguration and/or retenanting. We evaluate our properties on an ongoing basis to identify these types of opportunities.


We intend to opportunistically pursue theprojects in our development ofpipeline, including future phases of La Jolla Commons and Lloyd District Portfolio, as well as other redevelopments at Waikele Center and One Beach Street. The commencement of these developments is based on, among other things, market conditions and our evaluation of whether such opportunities would generate appropriate risk-adjusted financial returns. Our redevelopment and development opportunities are subject to various factors, including market conditions and may not ultimately come to fruition.



We continue to review acquisition opportunities in our primary markets that would complement our portfolio and provide long-term growth opportunities. Some of our acquisitions do not initially contribute significantly to earnings growth; however, we believe they provide long-term re-leasing growth, redevelopment opportunities and other strategic opportunities. Any growth from acquisitions is contingent upon our ability to find properties that meet our qualitative standards at prices that meet our financial hurdles. Changes in interest rates may affect our success in achieving earnings growth through acquisitions by affecting both the price that must be paid to acquire a property, as well as our ability to economically finance a property acquisition. Generally, our acquisitions are initially financed by available cash, mortgage loans and/or borrowings under our revolving line of credit, which may be repaid later with funds raised through the issuance of new equity or new long-term debt.

COVID-19

We continue to closely monitor the impact of COVID-19 on our business. We are unable to predict the future impact that COVID-19 will have on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows due to numerous uncertainties, including the scope, severity and duration of the virus (including future mutations), governmental, business and individual actions taken to stop its the spread or to mitigate its impact, the availability and adoption of COVID-19 vaccines, and the economic effects of the virus and containment measures, among others. Although many measures aimed to stop the spread of COVID-19 have been lifted, we cannot predict whether they will be reinstated or whether more restrictive measures may be imposed. It is also unclear whether customers’ concerns about the transmission of COVID-19 or other diseases will impact their willingness to visit certain of our tenants' businesses.

We believe our financial condition and liquidity are currently strong. Although there is uncertainty related to COVID-19’s impact on our future results, we believe our efficient business model and steps we have taken to strengthen our balance sheet will continue to allow us to manage our business through this evolving crisis.
Leasing


Our same-store growth is primarily driven by increases in rental rates on new leases and lease renewals and changes in portfolio occupancy. Over the long-term, we believe that the infill nature and strong demographics of our properties provide us with a strategic advantage, allowing us to maintain relatively high occupancy and increase rental rates. We have continued to see signs of improvement for many of our tenants, as well as increased interest from prospective tenants for our spaces. While there can be no assurance that these positive signs will continue,Furthermore, we remain cautiously optimistic regarding the improved trends we have seen over the past few years. We believe the locations of our properties and diverse tenant basediversified portfolio will mitigate some of the potentially negative impact of the current economic environment. However, anyin 2020 through 2022 due to COVID-19, we saw a meaningful negative impact on certain of our tenants' operations and ability to pay rent, primarily in the retail sector. Any reduction in our tenants' abilities to pay base rent, percentage rent or other charges, including as a result of COVID-19, will adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

During the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2023, we signed 12 retail13 office leases for a total of 24,711120,365 square feet of retailoffice space including 24,190119,307 square feet of comparable renewal office space leases (leases for which there was a prior tenant), at an average rental rate decrease on a cash basis of 1.2% and an average rental rate increase on a GAAP basis of 8.4%. New retail leases for comparable spaces were signed for 4,785 square feet at an average rental rate decrease on a cash3.5% and GAAP basis of 12.3% and 2.5%, respectively. Renewals for comparable retail spaces were signed for 19,405 square feet at an average rental rate decrease on a cash basis of 0.1% and an average rental rate increase on a GAAP basis of 9.6%. Tenant improvements and incentives were $57.47 per square foot of retail space for comparable new leases for the three months ended September 30, 2017, mainly attributed to tenants at Del Monte Center.

During the three months ended September 30, 2017, we signed 22 office leases for a total of 123,140 square feet of office space including 68,920 square feet of comparable space leases, at an average rental rate increase on a cash and GAAP basis of 10.3% and 14.5%4.5%, respectively. New office leases for comparable spaces were signed for 20,2536,431 square feet at an average rental rate increase on a cash and GAAP basis of 15.8%23.0% and 26.0%19.6%, respectively. Renewals for comparable office spaces were signed for 48,667112,876 square feet at an average rental rate decrease on a cash basis and increase on a GAAP basis of 4.1% and 4.2%, respectively. Tenant improvements and incentives were $30.27 per square foot of office space for comparable new leases for the three months ended June 30, 2023, mainly due to a tenant at Solana Crossing.

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we signed 21 retail leases for a total of 121,955 square feet of retail space including 96,955 square feet of comparable renewal retail space leases (leases for which there was a prior tenant), at an average rental rate increase on a cash and GAAP basis of 2.9% and 2.1%, respectively. Renewals for comparable retail spaces were signed for 96,955 square feet at an average rental rate increase on a cash and GAAP basis of 7.5%2.9% and 8.7%2.1%, respectively. Tenant improvements and incentivesThere were $43.34 per square foot of office spaceno new retail leases for comparable new leases forspaces signed during the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2017, mainly attributed to tenants at City Center Bellevue and One Beach Street.2023.


The rental increases associated with comparable spaces generally include all leases signed in arms-length transactions reflecting market leverage between landlords and tenants during the period. The comparison between average rent for expiring leases and new leases is determined by including minimum rent and percentage rent paid on the expiring lease and minimum rent and, in some instances, projections of first lease year percentage rent to be paid on the new lease. In some instances, management exercises judgment as to how to most effectively reflect the comparability of spaces reported in this calculation. The change in rental income on comparable space leases is impacted by numerous factors including current market rates, location, individual tenant creditworthiness, use of space, market conditions when the expiring lease was signed, capital investment made in the space and the specific lease structure. Tenant improvements and incentives include the total dollars committed for the improvement of a space as it relates to a specific lease, but may also include base-building costs (i.e. expansion, escalators or new entrances) which are required to make the space leasable. Incentives include amounts paid to tenants as an inducement to sign a lease that do not represent building improvements.


The leases signed in 20172023 generally become effective over the following year, though some may not become effective until 20182024 and beyond. Further, there is risk that some new tenants will not ultimately take possession of their space and that tenants for both new and renewal leases may not pay all of their contractual rent due to operating, financing or other matters. However, we believe that these increases do provide information about the tenant/landlord relationship and the potential fluctuations we may achieve in rental income over time.

34
Through the remainder

Table of 2017, we believe our leasing volume will be in-line with our historical averages and result in overall positive increases in rental income. However, changes in rental income associated with individual signed leases onContents

comparable spaces may be positive or negative, and we can provide no assurance that the rents on new leases will continue to increase at the above disclosed levels, if at all.
Capitalized Costs


Certain external and internal costs directly related to the development and redevelopment of real estate, including pre-construction costs, real estate taxes, insurance, interest, construction costs and salaries and related costs of personnel directly involved, are capitalized. We capitalize costs under development until construction is substantially complete and the property is held available for occupancy. The determination of when a development project is substantially complete and when capitalization must cease involves a degree of judgment. We consider a construction project as substantially complete and held available for occupancy upon the completion of landlord-owned tenant improvements or when the lessee takes possession of the unimproved space for construction of its own improvements, but not later than one year from cessation of major construction activity. We cease capitalization on the portion substantially completed and occupied or held available for occupancy, and capitalize only those costs associated with any remaining portion under construction.


We capitalized external and internal costs related to both development and redevelopment activities combined of $1.4$5.6 million and $6.2$22.8 million for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 and 2016, respectively. We capitalized external2022, respectively, and internal costs related to both development and redevelopment activities combined of $8.7$15.3 million and $24.7$45.5 million for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 and 2016,2022, respectively.
    
We capitalized external and internal costs related to other property improvements combined of $8.4$13.2 million and $8.6$10.2 million for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 and 2016, respectively. We capitalized external2022, respectively, and internal costs related to other property improvements combined of $23.0$25.5 million and $20.4$19.1 million for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 and 2016,2022, respectively.

We capitalized internal costs for salaries and related benefits for development and redevelopment activities and other property improvements, which are not significant for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Interest costs on developments and major redevelopments are capitalized as part of developments and redevelopments not yet placed in service. Capitalization of interest commences when development activities and expenditures begin and end upon completion, which is when the asset is ready for its intended use as noted above. We make judgments as to the time period over which to capitalize such costs and these assumptions have a direct impact on net income because capitalized costs are not subtracted in calculating net income. If the time period for capitalizing interest is extended, however, more interest is capitalized, thereby decreasing interest expense and increasing net income during that period. We capitalized interest costs related to development activities of $0.4$1.9 million and $0.3$1.4 million for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 and 2016, respectively. We capitalized interest costs related to development activities of $1.22022, respectively, and $3.8 million and $2.6 million for each of the nine month periodssix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 and 2016,2022, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources of American Assets Trust, Inc.


In this “Liquidity and Capital Resources of American Assets Trust, Inc.” section, the term the “company” refers only to American Assets Trust, Inc. on an unconsolidated basis, and excludes the Operating Partnership and all other subsidiaries.


The company’s business is operated primarily through the Operating Partnership, of which the company is the parent company and sole general partner, and which it consolidates for financial reporting purposes.  Because the company operates on a consolidated basis with the Operating Partnership, the section entitled “Liquidity and Capital Resources of American Assets Trust, L.P.” should be read in conjunction with this section to understand the liquidity and capital resources of the company on a consolidated basis and how the company is operated as a whole.


The company issues public equity from time to time, but does not otherwise generate any capital itself or conduct any business itself, other than incurring certain expenses in operating as a public company which are fully reimbursed by the Operating Partnership. The company itself does not have any indebtedness, and its only material asset is its ownership of partnership interests of the Operating Partnership. Therefore, the consolidated assets and liabilities and the consolidated revenues and expenses of the company and the Operating Partnership are the same on their respective financial statements.  However, all debt is held directly or indirectly by the Operating Partnership. The company’s principal funding requirement is the payment of dividends on its common stock. The company’s principal source of funding for its dividend payments is distributions it receives from the Operating Partnership.


As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2023, the company owned an approximate 73.2%78.8% partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. The remaining 26.8%approximately 21.2% are owned by non-affiliated investors and certain of the company's directors and executive officers. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, American Assets Trust, Inc. has the full, exclusive and complete authority and control over the Operating Partnership’s day-to-day management and business, can cause it to enter into certain major transactions, including acquisitions, dispositions and refinancings, and can cause changes in its line of business, capital structure and distribution policies. The company causes the Operating Partnership to distribute such portion of its available cash as the company may in its discretion determine, in the manner provided in the Operating Partnership’s partnership agreement.

Table of Contents

The liquidity of the company is dependent on the Operating Partnership’s ability to make sufficient distributions to the company. The primary cash requirement of the company is its payment of dividends to its stockholders. The company also guarantees some of the Operating Partnership’s debt, as discussed further in Note 87 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere herein. If the Operating Partnership fails to fulfill certain of its debt requirements, which trigger the company’s guarantee obligations, then the company will be required to fulfill its cash payment commitments under such guarantees. However, the company’s only significant asset is its investment in the Operating Partnership.


We believe the Operating Partnership’s sources of working capital, specifically its cash flow from operations, and borrowings available under its unsecured line of credit, are adequate for it to make its distribution payments to the company and, in turn, for the company to make its dividend payments to its stockholders. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2023, the company has determined that it has adequate working capital to meet its dividend funding obligations for the next 12 months. However, we cannot assure you that the Operating Partnership’s sources of capital will continue to be available at all or in amounts sufficient to meet its needs, including its ability to make distribution payments to the company. The unavailability of capital could adversely affect the Operating Partnership’s ability to pay its distributions to the company, which would in turn, adversely affect the company’s ability to pay cash dividends to its stockholders.


Our short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds to pay for future dividends expected to be paid to the company’s stockholders, operating expenses and other expenditures directly associated with our properties, interest expense and scheduled principal payments on outstanding indebtedness, general and administrative expenses, funding construction projects, capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions.


The company may from time to time seek to repurchase or redeem the Operating Partnership’s outstanding debt, the company’s shares of common stock or other securities in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases or redemptions, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.


For the company to maintain its qualification as a REIT, it must pay dividends to its stockholders aggregating annually at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, excluding net capital gains. While historically the company has satisfied this distribution requirement by making cash distributions to American Assets Trust, Inc.'s stockholders or American Assets Trust, L.P.'s unitholders, it may choose to satisfy this requirement by making distributions of cash or other property, including, in limited

circumstances, the company’s own stock. As a result of this distribution requirement, the Operating Partnership cannot rely on retained earnings to fund its ongoing operations to the same extent that other companies whose parent companies are not REITs can. The company may need to continue to raise capital in the equity markets to fund the operating partnership’s working capital needs, acquisitions and developments. Although there is no intent at this time, if market conditions deteriorate, the company may also delay the timing of future development and redevelopment projects as well as limit future acquisitions, reduce the Operating Partnership’s operating expenditures, or re-evaluate its dividend policy.


The company is a well-known seasoned issuer. As circumstances warrant, the company may issue equity from time to time on an opportunistic basis, dependent upon market conditions and available pricing. When the company receives proceeds from preferred or common equity issuances, it is required by the Operating Partnership’s partnership agreement to contribute the proceeds from its equity issuances to the Operating Partnership in exchange for partnership units of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership may use the proceeds to repay debt, to develop new or existing properties, to acquire properties or for general corporate purposes.

In February 2015,January 2021, the company filed a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3S-3ASR with the SEC, which was deemed automaticallybecame effective upon filing and which provides forreplaced the prior Form S-3ASR that was filed with the SEC in February 2018. The universal shelf registration statement permits the company from time to time to offer and sell equity securities of unspecified amounts of securities.the company.  However, there can be no assurance that the company will be able to complete any such offerings of securities.  Factors influencing the availability of additional financing include investor perception of our prospects and the general condition of the financial markets, among others.
In May 2015,
On December 3, 2021, we entered into ana new ATM equity program with five sales agents inunder which we may, from time to time, offer and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $250.0 million. The salessale of shares of the company'sour common stock made through the ATM equity program are made in “at-the-market”"at-the-market" offerings as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act. AsAct of September1933, as amended. For the three months ended June 30, 2017, we had the capacity to issue up to an additional $176.2 million in2023, no shares of common stock underwere sold through the ATM equity program.

We intend to use the net proceeds to fund development or redevelopment activities, repay amounts outstanding from time to time under our amended and restated credit facility or other debt financing obligations, fund potential acquisition opportunities and/or for general corporate purposes. Actual future sales will depend on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, market conditions, the trading price of the company's common stock and the company's capital needs. We have no obligation to sell the remaining shares available for sale under the ATM equity program.
Liquidity and Capital Resources of American Assets Trust, L.P.


In this “Liquidity and Capital Resources of American Assets Trust, L.P.” section, the terms “we,” “our” and “us” refer to the Operating Partnership together with its consolidated subsidiaries, or the Operating Partnership and American Assets Trust, Inc. together with their consolidated subsidiaries, as the context requires. American Assets Trust, Inc. is our sole general partner and consolidates our results of operations for financial reporting purposes. Because we operate on a consolidated basis with American Assets Trust, Inc., the section entitled “Liquidity and Capital Resources of American Assets Trust, Inc.” should be read in conjunction with this section to understand our liquidity and capital resources on a consolidated basis.
Due to the nature of our business, we typically generate significant amounts of cash from operations. The cash generated from operations is used for the payment of operating expenses, capital expenditures, debt service and dividends to American Assets Trust, Inc.'s stockholders and our unitholders. As a REIT, American Assets Trust, Inc. must generally make annual distributions to its stockholders of at least 90% of ourits net taxable income. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2023, we held $94.2$84.7 million in cash and cash equivalents.
Our short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of operating expenses and other expenditures associated with our properties, regular debt service requirements, dividend payments to American Assets Trust, Inc.'s stockholders required to maintain its REIT status, distributions to our unitholders, capital expenditures and, potentially, acquisitions. We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements through net cash provided by operations, reserves established from existing cash and, if necessary, borrowings available under our credit facility.
Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for the repayment of debt at maturity, property acquisitions, tenant improvements and capital improvements. We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements to pay scheduled debt maturities and to fund property acquisitions and capital improvements with net cash from operations, long-term secured and unsecured indebtedness and, if necessary, the issuance of equity and debt securities. We also may fund property acquisitions and capital improvements using our amended and restated credit facility pending permanent financing. We believe that we have access to multiple sources of capital to fund our long-term liquidity requirements, including the incurrence of additional debt and the issuance of additional equity. However, we cannot be assured that this will be the case. Our ability to incur additional debt will be dependent on a number of factors, including our degree of leverage, the value of our unencumbered assets and borrowing restrictions that may be imposed by lenders. Our ability to access the equity capital

markets will be dependent on a number of factors as well, including general market conditions for REITs and market perceptions about our company.
Our overall capital requirements for the remainder of 20172023 and first half of 2024 will depend upon acquisition opportunities and the level of improvements and redevelopments on existing properties and the timing and cost of development of Torrey Point. Construction for Torrey Point was completed during the third quarter of 2017, resulting in approximately 88,000 additional square feet of office space. We expect to invest approximately $56 million related to Torrey Point, of which approximately $38 million has been incurred as of September 30, 2017, noting the remaining amount will be incurred as the property is leased to tenants.properties. Our capital investments will be funded on a short-term basis with, among other sources of capital, cash on hand, cash flow from operations and/or our revolving line of credit. On a long-term basis, our capital investments may be funded with additional long-term debt.debt, including, without limitation, mortgage debt and unsecured notes. Our ability to incur additional debt will be dependent on a number of factors, including, without limitation, our degree of leverage, the value of our unencumbered assets and borrowing restrictions that may be imposed by lenders. Our capital investments may also be funded by issuing additional equity including, without limitation, shares issued by American Assets Trust, Inc. under its ATM equity program.program or through an underwritten public offering. Although there is no intent at this time, if market conditions deteriorate or fail to improve, we may also delay the timing of future development and redevelopment projects as well as limit future acquisitions, reduce our operating expenditures, or re-evaluate our dividend policy.
In February 2015,January 2021, the Operating Partnership filed a universal shelf registration on Form S-3 ASR with the SEC which provided for the registration of an unspecified amount of debt securities by the Operating Partnership. However, there can be no assurance that the Operating Partnership will be able to complete any such offerings of debt securities. Factors influencing the availability of additional financing include investor perception of our prospects and the general condition of the financial markets, among others.

Net Operating Income
Net Operating Income, or NOI, is a non-GAAP financial measure of performance. We define NOI as operating revenues (rental income, tenant reimbursements, lease termination fees, ground lease rental income and other property income) less property and related expenses (property expenses, ground lease expense, property marketing costs, real estate taxes and insurance). NOI excludes general and administrative expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, acquisition-related expense, other nonpropertynon-property income and losses, gains and losses from property dispositions, extraordinary items, tenant improvements, and leasing commissions. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to the NOIs of other REITs.
NOI is used by investors and our management to evaluate and compare the performance of our properties and to determine trends in earnings and to compute the fair value of our properties as it is not affected by (1) the cost of funds of the

property owner, (2) the impact of depreciation and amortization expenses as well as gains or losses from the sale of operating real estate assets that are included in net income computed in accordance with GAAP or (3) general and administrative expenses and other gains and losses that are specific to the property owner. The cost of funds is eliminated from net income because it is specific to the particular financing capabilities and constraints of the owner. The cost of funds is also eliminated because it is dependent on historical interest rates and other costs of capital as well as past decisions made by us regarding the appropriate mix of capital, which may have changed or may change in the future. Depreciation and amortization expenses as well as gains or losses from the sale of operating real estate assets are eliminated because they may not accurately represent the actual change in value in our retail, office, multifamily or mixed-use properties that result from use of the properties or changes in market conditions. While certain aspects of real property do decline in value over time in a manner that is intended to be captured by depreciation and amortization, the value of the properties as a whole have historically increased or decreased as a result of changes in overall economic conditions instead of from actual use of the property or the passage of time. Gains and losses from the sale of real property vary from property to property and are affected by market conditions at the time of sale, which will usually change from period to period. These gains and losses can create distortions when comparing one period to another or when comparing our operating results to the operating results of other real estate companies that have not made similarly timed purchases or sales. We believe that eliminating these costs from net income is useful because the resulting measure captures the actual revenue generated and actual expenses incurred in operating our properties as well as trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs.

However, the usefulness of NOI is limited because it excludes general and administrative costs, interest expense, interest income and other expense, depreciation and amortization expense and gains or losses from the sale of properties, and other gains and losses as stipulated by GAAP, the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which are significant economic costs. NOI may fail to capture significant trends in these components of net income, which further limits its usefulness.
NOI is a measure of the operating performance of our properties but does not measure our performance as a whole. NOI is therefore not a substitute for net income as computed in accordance with GAAP. This measure should be analyzed in conjunction with net income computed in accordance with GAAP and discussions elsewhere in “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” regarding the components of net income that are eliminated in the calculation of NOI. Other companies may use different methods for calculating NOI or similarly entitled measures and, accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to similarly entitled measures reported by other companies that do not define the measure exactly as we do.
The following is a reconciliation of our NOI to net income for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 and 20162022 computed in accordance with GAAP (in thousands):

Funds from Operations
We calculate funds from operations or FFO,("FFO"), in accordance with the standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts or NAREIT.("NAREIT"). FFO represents net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property, impairment losses, real-estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs) and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
FFO is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure. Management uses FFO as a supplemental performance measure because it believes that FFO is beneficial to investors as a starting point in measuring our operational performance. Specifically, in excluding real-estate related depreciation and amortization and gains and losses from property dispositions, which do not relate to or are not indicative of operating performance, FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. We also believe that, as a widely recognized measure of the performance of REITs, FFO will be used by investors as a basis to compare our operating performance with that of other

REITs. However, because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effects and could materially impact our results from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of our performance is limited. In addition, other equity REITs may not calculate FFO in accordance with the NAREIT definition as we do, and, accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to such other REITs' FFO. Accordingly, FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of our performance. FFO should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends or service indebtedness. FFO also should not be used as a supplement to or substitute for cash flow from operating activities computed in accordance with GAAP.

Diluted shares exclude incentive restricted stock as these awards are considered contingently issuable.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our future income, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments are dependent upon prevalent market interest rates. Market risk refers to the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. We manage our market risk by attempting to match anticipated inflow of cash from our operating, investing and financing activities with anticipated outflow of cash to fund debt payments, dividends to our stockholders and Operating Partnership unitholders, investments, capital expenditures and other cash requirements.
Interest Rate Risk
Outstanding Debt
The following discusses the effect of hypothetical changes in market rates of interest on the fair value of our total outstanding debt. Interest rate risk amounts were determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rates on our debt. Discounted cash flow analysis is generally used to estimate the fair value of our mortgages payable. Considerable judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of financial instruments. This analysis does not purport to take into account all of the factors that may affect our debt, such as the effect that a changing interest rate environment could have on the overall level of economic activity or the action that our management might take to reduce our exposure to the change. This analysis assumes no change in our financial structure.
Fixed Interest Rate Debt
Our outstanding notes payable obligations (maturing at various times through May 2029)February 2031) have fixed interest rates which limit the risk of fluctuating interest rates. However, interest rate fluctuations may affect the fair value of our fixed rate debt instruments. At SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2023, we had $1,080.2 million$1.4 billion of fixed rate debt outstanding with an estimated fair value of $1,095.7 million.$1.2 billion. The carrying values of our revolving line of credit and term loanloans are deemed to be at fair value since the outstanding debt is directly tied to monthly LIBORSOFR contracts. Additionally, we consider our $250.0 million term loan outstanding as of September 30, 2017 to be fixed rate debt as the rate is effectively fixed by an interest rate swap agreement. If interest rates at SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 had been 1.0% higher, the fair value of those debt instruments on that date would have decreased by approximately $26.7$39.3 million. If interest rates at SeptemberJune 30, 20172023 had been 1.0% lower, the fair value of those debt instruments on that date would have increased by approximately $46.4$62.5 million. Additionally, we consider $325.0 million related to Term Loan A, Term Loan B and Term Loan C outstanding as of June 30, 2023 to be fixed rate debt as the rate is effectively fixed by interest rate swap agreements.

Variable Interest Rate Debt
At SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2023, we had $250.0$325.0 million of variable rate debt outstanding.outstanding, all of which is subject to interest rate swaps as described above. We have historically entered into forward starting interest rate swaps in order to economically hedge against the risk of rising interest rates that would affect our interest expense related to our future anticipated debt issuances as part of its overall borrowing program. See the discussion under Note 54 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for certain quantitative details related to the interest rate swaps and for a discussion on how we value derivative financial instruments.  Based upon this amount of variable rate debt and the specific terms, if market interest rates increased or decreased by 1.0%, our annual interest expense would not change and have no corresponding change in our net income and cash flows for the year, since this variable rate debt is effectively fixed by interest rate swap agreements.
