EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 of VEREIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and VEREIT Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, of which VEREIT, Inc. is the sole general partner. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references in this report to “we,” “us,” “our,” “VEREIT,” the “Company” or the “General Partner” mean VEREIT, Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries, including VEREIT Operating Partnership, L.P., and all references to the “Operating Partnership” or “OP” mean VEREIT Operating Partnership, L.P. together with its consolidated subsidiaries.
As the sole general partner of VEREIT Operating Partnership, L.P., VEREIT, Inc. has the full, exclusive and complete responsibility for the Operating Partnership’s day-to-day management and control.
We believe combining the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q of VEREIT, Inc. and VEREIT Operating Partnership, L.P. into this single report results in the following benefits:
enhancing investors’ understanding of the Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;
eliminating duplicative disclosure and providing a more streamlined and readable presentation since a substantial portion of the disclosure applies to both the Company and the Operating Partnership; and
creating time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.
There are a few differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership, which are reflected in the disclosure in this report. We believe it is important to understand the differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership in the context of how we operate as an interrelated consolidated company. VEREIT, Inc. is a real estate investment trust whose only material asset is its ownership of partnership interests of the Operating Partnership. As a result, VEREIT, Inc. does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, issuing equity or debt from time to time and guaranteeing certain unsecured debt of the Operating Partnership and certain of its subsidiaries. The Operating Partnership holds substantially all of the assets of the Company and holds the ownership interests in the Company’s joint ventures. The Operating Partnership conducts the operations of the business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity. Except for net proceeds from public equity or debt issuances by VEREIT, Inc., which are generally contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for partnership units, the Operating Partnership generates the capital required by the Company’s business through the Operating Partnership’s operations, by the Operating Partnership’s direct or indirect incurrence of indebtedness or through the issuance of partnership units. To help investors understand the significant differences between VEREIT, Inc. and the Operating Partnership, there are separate sections in this report that separately discuss VEREIT, Inc. and the Operating Partnership, including the consolidated financial statements and certain notes to the consolidated financial statements as well as separate disclosures in Item 4. Controls and Procedures and Exhibit 31 and Exhibit 32 certifications. As sole general partner with control of the Operating Partnership, VEREIT, Inc. consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting purposes. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of VEREIT, Inc. and VEREIT Operating Partnership, L.P. are the same on their respective consolidated financial statements. The separate discussions of VEREIT, Inc. and VEREIT Operating Partnership, L.P. in this report should be read in conjunction with each other to understand the results of the Company on a consolidated basis and how management operates the Company.

The OP is a Delaware limited partnership of which the General Partner is the sole general partner. VEREIT’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), and its 6.70% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Series F Preferred Stock”) trade on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the trading symbols, “VER” and “VER PFPRF,” respectively. As used herein, the terms the “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to VEREIT, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, including the OP.
VEREIT is a full-service real estate operating company which owns and manages one of the largest portfolios of single-tenant commercial properties in the U.S. VEREIT’s business model provides equity capital to creditworthy corporations in return for long-term leases on their properties. The Company actively manages its portfolio considering a number of metrics including property type, concentration and key economic factors for appropriate balance and diversity.
Substantially all of the Company’s operations are conducted through the OP. VEREIT is the sole general partner and holder of 97.9%99.9% of the common equity interests in the OP as of June 30, 2019 with the remaining 2.1% of the common equity interests owned by unaffiliated investors and certain former directors, officers and employees of ARC Properties Advisors, LLC (the “Former Manager”), which is net of the surrendered 2.9 million Limited Partner OP Units discussed in Note 12 – Equity.March 31, 2020. Under the limited partnership agreement of the OP, as amended (the “LPA”), after holding common units of limited partner interests in the OP (“OP Units”) or Series F Preferred Units of limited partnership interests in the OP (“Series F Preferred Units”), for a period of one year and meeting the other requirements in the LPA, unless we otherwise consent to an earlier redemption, holders have the right to redeem the units for the cash value of a corresponding number of shares of Common Stock or Series F Preferred Stock, as applicable, or, at our option, a corresponding number of shares of Common Stock or Series F Preferred Stock, as applicable, subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms of the LPA. The remaining rights of the holders of OP Units are limited, however, and do not include the ability to replace the General Partner or to approve the sale, purchase or refinancing of the OP’s assets.
The actions of the OP and its relationship with the General Partner are governed by the LPA. The General Partner does not have any significant assets other than its investment in the OP. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of the General Partner and the OP are the same. Additionally, pursuant to the LPA, all administrative expenses and expenses associated with the formation, continuity, existence and operation of the General Partner incurred by the General Partner on the OP’s behalf shall be treated as expenses of the OP. Further, when the General Partner issues any equity instrument that has been approved by the General Partner’s Board of Directors, the LPA requires the OP to issue to the General Partner equity instruments with substantially similar terms, to protect the integrity of the Company’s umbrella partnership REIT structure, pursuant to which each holder of interests in the OP has a proportionate economic interest in the OP reflecting its capital contributions thereto. OP Units and Series F Preferred Units issued to the General Partner are referred to as “General Partner OP Units” and “General Partner Series F Preferred Units,” respectively. OP Units and Series F Preferred Units issued to parties other than the General Partner are referred to as “Limited Partner OP Units” and “Limited Partner Series F Preferred Units,” respectively. The LPA also provides that the OP issue debt with terms and provisions consistent with debt issued by the General Partner. The LPA will be amended to provide for the issuance of any additional class of equivalent equity instruments to the extent the General Partner’s Board of Directors authorizes the issuance of any new class of equity securities.

The novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic has negatively affected the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity, has had repercussions across local, national and global economies and has resulted in stock market volatility. As of March 31, 2020, the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business had not been significant, but the Company is closely monitoring the pandemic and its effects and continues to review receivables related to rent, straight-line rent and property operating expense reimbursements for collectability and changes in circumstances that could indicate the carrying value of its real estate assets or goodwill may not be recoverable.
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries and a consolidated joint venture. The portion of the consolidated joint venture not owned by the Company is presented as non-controlling interest in VEREIT’s and the OP’s consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income (loss) and statements of changes in equity. In addition, as described in Note 1 – Organization and Note 12 – Equity, certain third parties have been issued OP Units and Series F Preferred Units. Holders of OP Units are considered to be non-controlling interest holders in the OP and their ownership interest in the limited partner’s share is presented as non-controlling interests in VEREIT’s consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income (loss) and statements of changes in equity. Further, a portion of the earnings and losses of the OP are allocated to non-controlling interest holders based on their respective ownership percentages. Upon conversion of OP Units to Common Stock or Series F Preferred Units to Series F Preferred Stock, any differenceEquity is reallocated between the fair value of shares of Common Stock or Series F Preferred Stock, as applicable, issuedcontrolling and the carrying value ofnoncontrolling interests in the OP Units or Series F Preferred Units,upon a change in ownership. At the end of each annual reporting period, noncontrolling interests in the OP are adjusted to reflect their ownership percentage in the OP through a reallocation between controlling and noncontrolling interests in the OP, as applicable, converted is recorded as a component of equity.applicable. As of June 30, 2019each of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, there were approximately 20.8 million, net of the surrendered 2.9 million Limited Partner OP Units discussed in Note 12 – Equity, and 23.70.8 million Limited Partner OP Units issued and outstanding, respectively, and 49,766 and 86,874 Limited Partner Series F Preferred Units issued and outstanding, respectively.

outstanding.
For legal entities being evaluated for consolidation, the Company must first determine whether the interests that it holds and fees it receives qualify as variable interests in the entity. A variable interest is an investment or other interest that will absorb portions of an entity’s expected losses or receive portions of the entity’s expected residual returns. The Company’s evaluation includes consideration of fees paid to the Company where the Company acts as a decision maker or service provider to the entity being evaluated. If the Company determines that it holds a variable interest in an entity, it evaluates whether that entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”). VIEs are entities where investors lack sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or where equity investors, as a group, lack one of the following characteristics: (a) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, (b) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or (c) the right to receive the expected returns of the entity. The Company consolidates entities that are not VIEs if it has a majority voting interest or other rights that result in effectively controlling the entity.
The Company then qualitatively assesses whether it is (or is not) the primary beneficiary of a VIE, which is generally defined as the party who has a controlling financial interest in the VIE. Consideration of various factors include, but are not limited to, the Company’s ability to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and its obligation to absorb losses from or right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company consolidates any VIEs when the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE and the difference between consolidating the VIE and accounting for it using the equity method could be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company continually evaluates the need to consolidate these VIEs based on standards set forth in U.S. GAAP.
Reclassification
As described below,The fees from managed partnerships earned from the following itemsCompany’s unconsolidated joint venture entities, previously reportedincluded in other income (loss), net have been reclassified to conform with the current period’s presentation.
The operating expense reimbursementspresented in its own line item has been combined into rental revenue for prior periods presented to be consistent with the current year presentation. The (loss) gain on derivative instruments, net line item has been combined into other income, net for prior periods presented to be consistent with the current year presentation.
The distributions declared on Common Stock line item from prior periods has been updated to exclude distributions on restricted stock units (“Restricted Stock Units”) and deferred stock units (“Deferred Stock Units”) on the consolidated statements of changes in equity for all periods presented. These amounts are now included in the line item dividend equivalents on awards granted under the Equity Plan (as defined below), which also includes dividend equivalents on restricted share awards (“Restricted Shares”). The dividend equivalents on Restricted Shares were previously included in the line item distributions to participating securities in the consolidated statements of changes in equity.

Revenue Recognition - Real Estate
Rental Revenue
The Company continually reviews receivables related to rent, straight-line rent and unbilled rent receivablesproperty operating expense reimbursements and determines collectability by taking into consideration the tenant’s payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located. Upon adoptionThe review includes a binary assessment of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”), effective January 1, 2019,whether or not substantially all of the amounts due under a tenant’s lease agreement are probable of collection. For leases that are deemed probable of collection, revenue continues to be recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For leases that are deemed not probable of collection, revenue is recorded as cash is received. The Company recognizes all changes in the collectability assessment for an operating lease as an adjustment to rental income and does not record an allowance for uncollectible accounts.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Adopted Accounting StandardsFinancial Instruments - Credit Losses
The Company adopted ASC 842, effective January 1, 2019. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The most significant impact was the recognition of operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities for operating leases pursuant to which the Company is the lessee. The Company’s impairment assessment for ROU assets will be consistent with the impairment analysis for the Company's other long-lived assets and is reviewed quarterly, which is discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. The lessor accounting model under ASC 842 is similar to existing guidance, however, it limits the capitalization of initial direct leasing costs, such as internally generated costs.
The Company elected all practical expedients permitted under ASC 842, other than the hindsight practical expedient. Accordingly, the Company will retain distinction between a finance lease (i.e., capital leases under existing guidance) and an operating lease and account for its existing operating leases as operating leases under the new guidance, which did not require the reassessment of lease arrangements, lease classification or initial direct costs. The Company does not have a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings upon adoption.

The Company, as lessor, identified three separate lease components as follows: 1) land lease component, 2) single property lease component comprised of building, land improvements and tenant improvements, and 3) furniture and fixtures. The nonlease components relate to service obligations under certain lease contracts for service of the building, land improvements or tenant improvements. The Company determined the nonlease components are eligible to be combined under the practical expedient in ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2018-11,” combined with ASC 842, “Leasing ASUs”) and the nonlease components will be included with the single property lease component as the predominant component. Therefore, the Company will account for the combined component as a lease component under ASC 842. Refer to Note 11 - Leases for the related disclosures.
Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, the U.S. Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topicand subsequent amendments (collectively Topic 326) (“ASU 2016-13”). ASU 2016-13, effective January 1, 2020. Topic 326 is intended to improve financial reporting by requiring more timely recognition of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments that are not accounted for at fair value through net income and requires that financial assets measured at amortized cost be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, through an allowance for credit losses that is deducted from the amortized cost basis. The amendments in ASU 2016-13Topic 326 require the Company to measure all expected credit losses based upon historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the financial assets and eliminates the “incurred loss” methodology under current U.S. GAAP.
The effective dateCompany determined the following to be within the scope of Topic 326: (i) investments in direct financing leases, related to 19 leases as of March 31, 2020, of which the majority expire in 2022 and 2023, for credit worthy tenants, with no history of losses and (ii) other immaterial miscellaneous short term receivables. Due to the short term nature and collection history of the direct financing leases and management fee receivables and the creditworthiness of the direct financing lease tenants, the adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Reference Rate Reform
During the first quarter of 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU 2016-132020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company has elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for fiscal years (includingfuture London Inter-Bank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”)-indexed cash flows to assume that the interim periods therein) beginning after December 15, 2019.index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.

Accounting for Lease Concessions Related to the Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic
The FASB issued a question-and-answer document, Accounting for Lease Concessions Related to the Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic, which, for concessions related to the effects of COVID-19, allows an entity to elect to not analyze each contract to determine whether enforceable rights and obligations for concessions exist in the contract and to elect to apply or not apply the lease modification guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”), to those contracts. For concessions that provide a deferral of payments with no substantive changes to the consideration in the original contract, the Company can evaluate whether to (i) account for these concessions as if there were no changes made to the lease agreement and accordingly, increase the lease receivable and continue to recognize income or, (ii) account for the rent deferrals as variable lease payments. Concessions that substantively increase the consideration in the original contract are accounted for as a lease modification under ASC 842, which will require the Company to reevaluate the lease classification and remeasure and reallocate the consideration over the remaining lease term. The Company is currently evaluating the impact these amendmentsof this guidance and which elections, if any, it will have on its consolidated financial statements.make for the quarter-ending June 30, 2020.

(1)The Company’s ownership interest reflects its legal ownership interest. Legal ownership may, at times, not equal the Company’s economic interest in the listed properties because of various provisions in certain joint venture agreements regarding capital contributions, distributions of cash flow based on capital account balances, allocations of profits and losses and payments of preferred returns. As a result, the Company’s actual economic interest (as distinct from its legal ownership interest) in certain of the properties could fluctuate from time to time and may not wholly align with its legal ownership interests.

Note 5 – Fair Value Measures
The Company determines fair value based on quoted prices when available or through the use of alternative approaches, such as discounting the expected cash flows using market interest rates commensurate with the credit quality and duration of the investment. U.S. GAAP guidance defines three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset and liability or can be corroborated with observable market data for substantially the entire contractual term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular valuation techniques.
The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the hierarchy requires significant judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter and depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter. Changes in the type of inputs may result in a reclassification for certain assets. The Company does not expect that changes in classifications between levels will be frequent.

Derivative Assets and Liabilities The Company’s derivative financial instruments relate to interest rate swaps. The valuation of derivative instruments is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, as well as observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. In addition, credit valuation adjustments are incorporated into the fair values to account for the Company’s potential nonperformance risk and the performance risk of the counterparties.
Although the Company determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with those derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. However, as of June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, the Company assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of the Company’s derivatives. As a result, the Company determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Real Estate Investments The Company performs quarterly impairment review procedures, primarily through continuous monitoring of events and changes in circumstances that could indicate the carrying value of its real estate assets may not be recoverable.
As part of the Company’s quarterly impairment review procedures, net real estate assets representing 4216 properties were deemed to be impaired resulting in impairment charges of $20.3$8.4 million during the sixthree months ended June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. The impairment charges relate to certain retail and restaurant properties whose tenants filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy during the first quarter of 2020, were identified by management for potential sale or were determined would not be re-leased by the tenant.
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company considered whether there was any indication of impairment for properties that did not otherwise have potential impairment indicators and did not identify additional properties as of March 31, 2020. Based on the Company’s expected holding period for the properties and the economic conditions as of March 31, 2020, the Company believes that their carrying values are recoverable. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the businesses of certain of our tenants so the Company continues to monitor for circumstances and events in future periods, which may result in impairment charges.
During the three months ended March 31, 2019, net real estate assets related to 24 properties, were deemed to be impaired resulting in impairment charges of $12.0 million. The impairment charges related to certain office, retail and restaurant properties that, during the first quarter of 2019, management identified for potential sale or determined, based on discussions with the current tenants, would not be re-leased. Duringre-leased by the six months ended June 30, 2018, net real estate assets relatedtenant and the Company believed the property would not be leased to 31 properties were deemed to be impaired, resulting in impairment charges of $17.7 million.another tenant at a rental rate that supports the current book value.
The Company estimates fair values using Level 3 inputs and uses a combined income and market approach, specifically using discounted cash flow analysis and recent comparable sales transactions. The evaluation of real estate assets for potential impairment requires the Company’s management to exercise significant judgment and make certain key assumptions, including, but not limited to, the following: (1) capitalization rate; (2) discount rates; (3) number of years property will be held; (4) property operating expenses; and (5) re-leasing assumptions including number of months to re-lease, market rental revenue and required tenant improvements. There are inherent uncertainties in making these estimates such as market conditions and performance and sustainability of the Company’s tenants. For the Company’s impairment tests for the real estate assets during the sixthree months ended June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the Company used a range of discount rates from 8.0% to 8.3% with a weighted-average rate of 8.1%7.9% and capitalization rates from 7.5% to 7.8% with a weighted-averagecapitalization rate of 7.6%7.4%.

The Revolving Credit Facility generally bears interest at an annual rate of London Inter-Bank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”)LIBOR plus 0.775% to 1.55% or Base Rate plus 0.00% to 0.55% (based upon the General Partner’s then current credit rating). “Base Rate” is defined as the highest of the prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.50% or a floating rate based on one month LIBOR plus 1.0%, determined on a daily basis. The Credit Facility Term Loan generally bears interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 0.85% to 1.75%, or Base Rate plus 0.00% to 0.75% (based upon the General Partner’s then current credit rating). In addition, the Credit Agreement provides the flexibility for interest rate auctions, pursuant to which, at the Company’s election, the Company may request that lenders make competitive bids to provide revolving loans, which competitive bids may be at pricing levels that differ from the foregoing interest rates. The Credit Facility Term Loan interest rate was 3.59% as of March 31, 2020, pursuant to the terms of the related swap agreements discussed in Note 7 –Derivatives and Hedging Activities.
In the event of default, at the election of a majority of the lenders (or automatically upon a bankruptcy event of default with respect to the OP or the General Partner), the commitments of the lenders under the Credit Facility will terminate, and payment of any unpaid amounts in respect of the Credit Facility will be accelerated. The Revolving Credit Facility terminates on May 23, 2022, unless extended in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement provides for two2 six-month extension options with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, exercisable at the OP’s election and subject to certain customary conditions, as well as certain customary “amend and extend” provisions.

At any time, upon timely notice by the OP and subject to any breakage fees, the OP may prepay borrowings under the Credit Facility (subject to certain limitations applicable to the prepayment of any loans obtained through an interest rate auction, as described above). The OP incurs a facility fee equal to 0.10% to 0.30% per annum (based upon the General Partner’s then current credit rating) multiplied by the commitments (whether or not utilized) in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility. The OP also incurs customary administrative agent, letter of credit issuance, letter of credit fronting, extension and other fees.
The Credit Facility requires restrictions on corporate guarantees, as well as the maintenance of financial covenants, including the maintenance of certain financial ratios (such as specified debt to equity and debt service coverage ratios). The key financial covenants in the Credit Facility, as defined and calculated per the terms of the Credit Agreement, include maintaining (i) a maximum leverage ratio less than or equal to 60%, (ii) a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.5x, (iii) a secured leverage ratio less than or equal to 45%, (iv) a total unencumbered asset value ratio less than or equal to 60% and (v) a minimum unencumbered interest coverage ratio of at least 1.75x. The Company believes that it was in compliance with the financial covenants pursuant to the Credit Agreement and is not restricted from accessing any borrowing availability under the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2019.

The Company also reported that the Audit Committee had based its conclusion on the preliminary findings of its investigation into concerns regarding accounting practices and other matters that were first reported to the Audit Committee in early September 2014 and that the Audit Committee believed that an error in the calculation of adjusted funds from operations for the first quarter of 2014 had been identified but intentionally not corrected when the Company reported its financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. Prior to the filing of the October 29 8-K, the Audit Committee previewed for the SEC the information contained in the filing.

The only remaining opt out action in the Southern District of New York is the Jet Capital Action, which is proceeding on the same schedule as the SDNY Consolidated Securities Class Action.
On October 27, 2015, the Company and certain of its former officers, among others, were also named as defendants in an individual securities fraud action filed in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona, captioned Vanguard Specialized Funds, et al. v. VEREIT, Inc. et al., No. 15-cv-02157 (the “Vanguard Action”, and such plaintiffs, “Plaintiffs”). The Vanguard Action asserted claims arising out of allegedly false and misleading statements in connection with the purchase or sale of the Company’s securities. On June 7, 2018, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release (the “Settlement Agreement”) to settle the Vanguard Action for a payment of $90 million.

The ultimate resolution of all of these matters, the timing and substance of which is unknown, may materially impact the Company’s business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.
Cole Litigation Matter
In December 2013, Realistic Partners filed a putative class action lawsuit against the Company and the then-members of its board of directors in the Supreme Court for the State of New York, captioned Realistic Partners v. American Realty Capital Partners, et al., No. 654468/2013. The plaintiff alleged, among other things, that the board of the Company breached its fiduciary duties in connection with the transactions contemplated under the Cole Merger Agreement (in connection with the merger between a wholly owned subsidiary of Cole Credit Property Trust III, Inc. and Cole Holdings Corporation) and that Cole Credit Property Trust III, Inc. aided and abetted those breaches. In January 2014, the parties entered into a memorandum of understanding regarding settlement of all claims asserted on behalf of the alleged class of the Company’s stockholders. The proposed settlement terms required the Company to make certain additional disclosures related to the Cole Merger, which were included in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the SEC on January 17, 2014. The memorandum of understanding also contemplated that the parties would enter into a stipulation of settlement, which would be subject to customary conditions, including confirmatory discovery and court approval following notice to the Company’s stockholders, and provided that the defendants would not object to a payment of up to $625,000 for attorneys’ fees. If the parties enter into a stipulation of settlement, which has not occurred, a hearing will be scheduled at which the court will consider the fairness, reasonableness and adequacy of the settlement. There can be no assurance that the parties will enter into a stipulation of settlement, that the court will approve any proposed settlement, or that any eventual settlement will be under the same terms as those contemplated by the memorandum of understanding.2019.
Purchase and Build-to-Suit Commitments
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into various types of commitments to purchase real estate properties. These commitments are generally subject to the Company’s customary due diligence process and, accordingly, a number of specific conditions must be met before the Company is obligated to purchase the properties. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had one build-to-suit development project with an estimated remaining committed investment of $11.9 million.
Environmental Matters
In connection with the ownership and operation of real estate, the Company may potentially be liable for costs and damages related to environmental matters. The Company has not been notified by any governmental authority of any non-compliance, liability or other claim, and is not aware of any other environmental condition, in each case, that it believes will have a material adverse effect on the results of operations.

Note 15 Net Income (Loss) Per Share/Unit
The General Partner’s unvested Restricted Shares contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends and are considered to be participating securities in accordance with U.S. GAAP and, therefore, are included in the computation of earnings per share under the two-class computation method. Under the two-class computation method, net losses are not allocated to participating securities unless the holder of the security has a contractual obligation to share in the losses. The unvested Restricted Shares are not allocated losses as the awards do not have a contractual obligation to share in losses of the General Partner. The two-class computation method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of shares of Common Stock and participating securities according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings.

Capitalized terms used herein, but not otherwise defined, shall have the meaning ascribed to those terms in the “Part I – Financial Information,” including the notes to the consolidated financial statements contained therein.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” (within the meaning of the federal securities laws, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) thatwhich reflect our expectations and projections aboutregarding future events and plans, future financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and business, including acquisitions, rent receipts, rent relief requests, debt levels, the payment of future dividends and the impact of COVID-19 on our future results, performance, prospects and opportunities.

All forward-looking statements should be read in light of the risks identified in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors within our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.2019, as supplemented in Part II, Item 1A. of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
We use certain defined terms throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have the following meanings:
When we refer to “annualized rental income,” we mean the rental revenue under our leases on operating properties owned at the respective reporting date on a straight-line basis, which includes the effect of rent escalations and any tenant concessions, such as free rent, and our pro rata share of such revenues from properties owned by unconsolidated joint ventures. Annualized rental income excludes any bad debt allowances and anyadjustments to rental income due to changes in the collectability assessment, contingent rent, such as percentage rent.rent, and operating expense reimbursements. Management uses annualized rental income as a basis for tenant, industry and geographic concentrations and other metrics within the portfolio. Annualized rental income is not indicative of future performance.
When we refer to a “creditworthy tenant,” we mean a tenant that has entered into a lease that we determine is creditworthy and may include tenants with an investment grade or below investment grade credit rating, as determined by major credit rating agencies, or unrated tenants. To the extent we determine that a tenant is a “creditworthy tenant” even though it does not have an investment grade credit rating, we do so based on our management’s determination that a tenant should have the financial wherewithal to honor its obligations under its lease with us. As explained further below, this determination is based on our management’s substantial experience performing credit analysis and is made after evaluating all of a tenant’s due diligence materials that are made available to us, including financial statements and operating data.
When we refer to a “direct financing lease,” we mean a lease that requires specific treatment due to the significance of the lease payments from the inception of the lease compared to the fair value of the property, term of the lease, a transfer of ownership, or a bargain purchase option. These leases are recorded as a net asset on the balance sheet. The amount recorded is calculated as the fair value of the remaining lease payments on the leases and the estimated fair value of any expected residual property value at the end of the lease term.
When we refer to properties that are net leased on a “long term basis,” we mean properties with remaining primary lease terms of generally seven to 10 years or longer on average, depending on property type.
Under a “net lease,” the tenant occupying the leased property (usually as a single tenant) does so in much the same manner as if the tenant were the owner of the property. There are various forms of net leases, most typically classified as triple net or double net. Triple net leases typically require that the tenant pay all expenses associated with the property (e.g., real estate taxes, insurance, maintenance and repairs). Double net leases typically require that the tenant pay all operating expenses associated with the property (e.g., real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance), but excludes some or all major repairs (e.g., roof, structure and parking lot). Accordingly, the owner receives the rent “net” of these expenses, rendering the cash flow associated with the lease predictable for the term of the lease. Under a net lease, the tenant generally agrees to lease the property for a significant term and agrees that it will either have no ability or only limited ability to terminate the lease or abate rent prior to the expiration of the term of the lease as a result of real estate driven events such as casualty, condemnation or failure by the landlord to fulfill its obligations under the lease.
When we refer to “operating properties” we mean properties owned and consolidated by the Company, omitting properties (the “Excluded Properties”) for which (i) the related mortgage loan is in default, and (ii) management decides to transfer the properties to the lender in connection with settling the mortgage note obligation. DuringAt and during the three months ended June 30,March 31, 2020 and 2019, there were no Excluded Properties.

Effective April 1, 2019, the Company determined that the real estate portfolio and economic metrics of operating properties should include the Company's pro rata share of square feet and annualized rental income from the Company's unconsolidated joint ventures, based upon the Company's legal ownership percentage, which may, at times, not equal the Company's economic interest because of various provisions in certain joint venture agreements regarding distributions of cash flow based on capital account balances, allocations of profits and losses and payments of preferred returns. The Company did not update data presented for prior periods as the impact on prior period metrics was immaterial.
As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, our portfolio was comprised of 3,9513,853 retail, restaurant, office and industrial real estate properties with an aggregate 89.888.4 million square feet, of which 98.9%99.0% was leased, with a weighted-average remaining lease term of 8.58.3 years. As of June 30, 2019, one office property (the “Excluded Property”), comprised of 145,186 square feet, of which 6,926 was vacant, that secured a mortgage note payable with debt outstanding of $19.5 million, was not considered an operating property. Omitting the Excluded Property and the square feet of one redevelopment property and including the pro rata share of square feet and annualized rental income from the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures, we owned 3,950 retail, restaurant, office and industrial real estate properties with an aggregate of 90.689.5 million square feet, of which 99.0%99.1% was leased, with a weighted-average remaining lease term of 8.68.3 years as of June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020.

Results of Operations
On February 1, 2018,The coronavirus (“COVID-19”) has impacted all states where our tenants operate their businesses or where our properties are located, and measures taken to prevent or remediate COVID-19, including “shelter-in-place” or “stay-at-home” orders or other quarantine mandates issued by local, state or federal authorities, have had an adverse effect on our business and the businesses of our tenants. While we did not incur significant disruptions to our business during the three months ended March 31, 2020 from the COVID-19 pandemic, the full extent of the impact on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations is uncertain.
Our dedicated property type asset management teams have been in discussion with tenants to understand the impact of COVID-19 on their businesses. As of May 15, 2020, the Company sold substantially allreceived certain rent relief requests, most often in the form of Cole Capital,rent deferral requests, from tenants representing approximately 34% of rental income on an annualized basis, including some tenants that paid April and May rent. These rent relief requests vary in timeframes, but are concentrated within the two to four month range. We evaluate each tenant request on a case-by-case basis, including by analyzing metrics such as industry segment, corporate financial health, rent coverage, and the tenant's liquidity. As of May 15, 2020, we had received approximately 81% and 78% of April and May rent, respectively, which is presentedincluded contractual rent and recoveries paid by tenants to cover estimated tax, insurance and common area maintenance expenses, including the Company's pro rata share of such amounts related to properties owned by unconsolidated joint ventures, and approximately 2% of May rent to be paid in arrears by a Government agency tenant. However, information regarding historical rent collections should not serve as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The Company’s continuing operations represent primarily thosean indication of the real estate investment segment. Theexpected future rent collections. We continue to review receivables related to rent, straight-line rent and property operating expense reimbursements line item has been combined into rental revenue for prior periods presentedcollectability and changes in circumstances that could indicate the carrying value of our real estate assets or goodwill may not be recoverable. Additionally, given the economic uncertainty and rapidly-evolving circumstances related to be consistentCOVID-19, we are not currently able to predict the level of acquisition and/or disposition activity for the remainder of 2020.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued a question-and-answer document, Accounting for Lease Concessions Related to the Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic, which, for concessions related to the effects of COVID-19, allows an entity to elect to not analyze each contract to determine whether enforceable rights and obligations for concessions exist in the contract and to elect to apply or not apply the lease modification guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”), to those contracts. For concessions that provide a deferral of payments with no substantive changes to the current year presentation.consideration in the original contract, we can evaluate whether to (i) account for these concessions as if there were no changes made to the lease agreement and accordingly, increase the lease receivable and continue to recognize income or, (ii) account for the rent deferrals as variable lease payments. Concessions that substantively increase the consideration in the original contract are accounted for as a lease modification under ASC 842, which will require us to reevaluate the lease classification and remeasure and reallocate the consideration over the remaining lease term. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance and which elections, if any, we will make for the quarter-ending June 30, 2020.

Non-GAAP Measures
Our results are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We also disclose certain non-GAAP measures, as discussed further below. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in our internal analysis of results and believes these measures are useful to investors for the reasons explained below. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as substitutes for any measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations
Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“Nareit”), an industry trade group, has promulgated a supplemental performance measure known as funds from operations (“FFO”), which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure to reflect the operating performance of a REIT. FFO is not equivalent to our net income or loss as determined under U.S. GAAP.
Nareit defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP adjusted for gains or losses from disposition of property, depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, impairment write-downs on real estate, and our pro rata share of FFO adjustments related to unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We calculate FFO in accordance with Nareit’s definition described above.
In addition to FFO, we use adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”) as a non-GAAP supplemental financial performance measure to evaluate the operating performance of the Company. AFFO, as defined by the Company, excludes from FFO non-routine items such as acquisition-related expenses, litigation and non-routine costs, net, loss on disposition of discontinued operations, net revenue or expense earned or incurred that is related to the Services Agreement, services agreement associated with a discontinued operation, gains or losses on sale of investment securities or mortgage notes receivable, payments on fully reserved loan receivables and restructuring expenses. We also exclude certain non-cash items such as impairments of goodwill and intangible assets, straight-line rent, net of bad debt expense related to straight-line rent, net direct financing lease adjustments, gains or losses on derivatives, reserves for loan loss, gains or losses on the extinguishment or forgiveness of debt, non-current portion of the tax benefit or expense, equity-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets, deferred financing costs, premiums and discounts on debt and investments, above-market lease assets and below-market lease liabilities. We omit the impact of the Excluded Properties and related non-recourse mortgage notes from FFO to calculate AFFO. Management believes that excluding these costs from FFO provides investors with supplemental performance information that is consistent with the performance models and analysis used by management, and provides investors a view of the performance of our portfolio over time. AFFO allows for a comparison of the performance of our operations with other publicly-traded REITs, as AFFO, or an equivalent measure, is routinely reported by publicly-traded REITs, and we believe often used by analysts and investors for comparison purposes.
For all of these reasons, we believe FFO and AFFO, in addition to net income (loss), as defined by U.S. GAAP, are helpful supplemental performance measures and useful in understanding the various ways in which our management evaluates the performance of the Company over time. However, not all REITs calculate FFO and AFFO the same way, so comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. FFO and AFFO should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) and are not intended to be used as a liquidity measure indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs. Neither the SEC,U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), Nareit, nor any other regulatory body has evaluated the acceptability of the exclusions used to adjust FFO in order to calculate AFFO and its use as a non-GAAP financial performance measure.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
General
Our principal liquidity needs for the next twelve months and beyond are to:
fund normal operating expenses;
fund potential capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing costscosts;
meet debt service and principal repayment obligations, including balloon payments on maturing debt;
pay dividends;
pay litigation costs and expenses (including any settlements and judgments); and
fund property acquisitions.
We expect to be able to satisfy these obligations using one or more of the following sources:
cash flow from operations;
proceeds from real estate dispositions;
utilization of the existing Revolving Credit Facility;
cash and cash equivalents balance; and
issuance of VEREIT debt and equity securities.
COVID-19
As previously discussed in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, we did not incur significant disruptions to our business during the three months ended March 31, 2020 from the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the financial impact of COVID-19 could have a material and adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity and cash flows subsequent to March 31, 2020, in particular due to the potential (i) inability of our tenants to satisfy their rent obligations, (ii) inability of the Company to renew leases, lease vacant space or re-let space as leases expire on favorable terms, or at all, and (iii) difficulty for the Company accessing debt and equity capital on attractive terms, or at all. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we initiated an additional draw, in excess of normal operating requirements, of $600.0 million on our Revolving Credit Facility to enhance our cash position. The effect of COVID-19 may also negatively impact our future compliance with financial covenants in our Credit Facility, indentures governing our Senior Notes and other debt agreements and result in a default and acceleration of indebtedness which could negatively impact our ability to make additional borrowings under our Credit Facility. The financial impact of COVID-19 could also negatively affect our ability to pay dividends or fund acquisitions.

Election as a REIT
The General Partner elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2011. As a REIT, except as discussed below, the General Partner generally is not subject to federal income tax on taxable income that it distributes to its stockholders so long as it distributes at least 90% of its annual taxable income (computed without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains). REITs are subject to a number of other organizational and operational requirements. Even if the General Partner maintains its qualification for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, federal income taxes on certain income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. We believe we are organized and operating in such a manner as to qualify to be taxed as a REIT for the taxable year ended December 31, 2019.2020.
The Operating Partnership is classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a partnership, the Operating Partnership is not a taxable entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Instead, each partner in the Operating Partnership is required to take into account its allocable share of the Operating Partnership’s income, gains, losses, deductions and credits for each taxable year. However, the Operating Partnership may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property.

Under the LPA,limited partnership agreement of the OP, as amended (the “LPA”), the Operating Partnership is required to conduct business in such a manner as to permit the General Partner at all times to qualify as a REIT.
As discussed in Note 13 —Discontinued Operations, on February 1, 2018, the Company completed the sale of its investment management segment, Cole Capital. The Company conducted substantially all of the Cole Capital business activities through a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”). A TRS is a subsidiary of a REIT that is subject to corporate federal, state and local income taxes, as applicable. The Company’s use of a TRS enables it to engage in certain business activities while complying with the REIT qualification requirements and to retain any income generated by these businesses for reinvestment without the requirement to distribute those earnings. The Company conducts all of its business in the United States and Puerto Rico and, as a result, it files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, Puerto Rico, and various state and local jurisdictions. Certain of the Company’s inter-company transactions that have been eliminated in consolidation for financial accounting purposes are also subject to taxation.
Inflation
We may be adversely impacted by inflation on any leases that do not contain indexed escalation provisions. However, net leases that require the tenant to pay its allocable share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance costs, real estate taxes and insurance, may reduce our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation.
Related Party Transactions and Agreements
Through the closing of the Cole Capital sale, we were contractually responsible for managing the Cole REITs’ affairs on a day-to-day basis, identifying and making acquisitions and investments on the Cole REITs’ behalf, and recommending to each of the Cole REIT’s respective board of directors an approach for providing investors with liquidity. In addition, we distributed the shares of common stock for certain of the Cole REITs and advised them regarding offerings, managed relationships with participating broker-dealers and financial advisors, and provided assistance in connection with compliance matters relating to the offerings. We received compensation and reimbursement for services relating to the Cole REITs’ offerings and the investment, management and disposition of their respective assets, as applicable. See Note 14 –Related Party Transactions and Arrangements to our consolidated financial statements in this report for a further explanation of the various related party transactions, agreements and fees.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no material off-balance sheet arrangements that have had or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Accounting Estimates
Our accounting policies have been established to conform with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Management believes that we have made these estimates and assumptions in an appropriate manner and in a way that accurately reflects our financial condition. We continually test and evaluate these estimates and assumptions using our historical knowledge of the business, as well as other factors, to ensure that they are reasonable for reporting purposes. However, actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to the various transactions had been different, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied, thus resulting in a different presentation of the financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. We believe the following critical accounting policies govern the significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements, which should be read in conjunction with the more complete discussion of our accounting policies and procedures included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018:

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Market Risk
The market risk associated with financial instruments and derivative financial instruments is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices or interest rates. Our market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk relating to variable-rate borrowings. To meet our short and long-term liquidity requirements, we borrow funds at a combination of fixed and variable rates. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to manage our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, from time to time, we may enter into interest rate hedge contracts such as swaps, caps, collars, treasury locks, options and treasury lock agreementsforwards in order to mitigate our interest rate risk with respect to various debt instruments. We would not hold or issue these derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes.

Interest Rate Risk
As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, our debt included fixed-rate debt, including debt that has interest rates that are fixed with the use of derivative instruments, with a fair value and carrying value of $5.9$5.4 billion and $5.7$5.5 billion, respectively. Changes in market interest rates on our fixed rate debt impact the fair value of the debt, but they have no impact on interest incurred or cash flow. For instance, if interest rates rise 100 basis points, and the fixed rate debt balance remains constant, we expect the fair value of our debt to decrease, the same way the price of a bond declines as interest rates rise. The sensitivity analysis related to our fixed-rate debt assumes an immediate 100 basis point move in interest rates from their June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 levels, with all other variables held constant. A 100 basis point increase in market interest rates would result in a decrease in the fair value of our fixed rate debt of $197.8$115.6 million. A 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates would result in an increase in the fair value of our fixed-rate debt of $213.3$271.6 million.
As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, our debt included variable-rate debt with a fair value and carrying value each of $13.9 million.$886.6 million and $886.5 million, respectively. The sensitivity analysis related to our variable-rate debt assumes an immediate 100 basis point move in interest rates from their June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 levels, with all other variables held constant. A 100 basis point increase or decrease in variable interest rates on our variable-rate debt would increase or decrease our interest expense by $0.1$8.9 million annually. See Note 6 – Debt to our consolidated financial statements.

As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, our interest rate swapswaps had a fair value that resulted in liabilities of $27.6$104.5 million. See Note 7 – Derivatives and Hedging Activities to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion.
As the information presented above includes only those exposures that existed as of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, it does not consider exposures or positions arising after that date. The information presented herein has limited predictive value. Future actual realized gains or losses with respect to interest rate fluctuations will depend on cumulative exposures, hedging strategies employed and the magnitude of the fluctuations.
These amounts were determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rate changes on our borrowing costs and assume no other changes in our capital structure.
In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) announced it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. The Company is not able to predict when LIBOR will cease to be available or when there will be sufficient liquidity in the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) markets. The Company has contracts that are indexed to LIBOR and is monitoring and evaluating the related risks, which include interest amounts on our variable rate debt as discussed in Note 6 –Debt and the swap rate for our interest rate swaps, as discussed in Note 7 –Derivatives and Hedging Activities. See Item 1A. Risk Factors included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion on risks related to changes in LIBOR reporting practices, the method in which LIBOR is determined, or the use of alternative reference rates.
Credit Risk
Concentrations of credit risk arise when a number of tenants are engaged in similar business activities, or activities in the same geographic region, or have similar economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations, including those to the Company, to be similarly affected by changes in economic conditions. The Company is subject to tenant, geographic and industry concentrations. Any downturn of the economic conditions in one or more of these tenants, geographies or industries could result in a material reduction of our cash flows or material losses to us.
The factors considered in determining the credit risk of our tenants include, but are not limited to: payment history; credit status and change in status (credit ratings for public companies are used as a primary metric); change in tenant space needs (i.e., expansion/downsize); tenant financial performance; economic conditions in a specific geographic region; and industry specific credit considerations. We believe that the credit risk of our portfolio is reduced by the high quality of our existing tenant base, reviews of prospective tenants’ risk profiles prior to lease execution and consistent monitoring of our portfolio to identify potential problem tenants. However, we continue to monitor this in light of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
In the event that LIBOR is discontinued, the interest rate for the majority of our variable rate debt and the swap rate for the majority of our interest rate swaps following such event will be based on an alternative variable rate as specified in the applicable documentation governing such debt or swaps or as otherwise agreed upon. Such an event would not affect the Company's ability to borrow or maintain already outstanding borrowings or swaps, but the alternative variable rate could be higher and more volatile than LIBOR prior to its discontinuance. We understand that LIBOR is expected to remain available through the end of 2021, but may be discontinued or otherwise become unavailable thereafter.

The information contained under the heading “Litigation” in Note 10 – Commitments and Contingencies to our consolidated financial statements contained herein is incorporated by reference into this Part II, Item 1. Except as set forth therein, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we are not a party to, and none of our properties are subject to, any material pending legal proceedings.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.Factors.
There have been no material changes fromThe Company is supplementing the risk factors set forthpreviously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. 2019 with the following risk factor, which should be read in conjunction with the other risk factors presented in the Annual Report on Form 10-K:

The current pandemic of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has negatively affected and will likely continue to negatively affect our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations and those of our tenants.
The current COVID-19 pandemic has had, and likely will continue to have, repercussions across local, national and global economies and financial markets. COVID-19 has impacted all states where our tenants operate their businesses or where our properties are located and measures taken to prevent or remediate COVID-19, including “shelter-in-place” or “stay-at-home” orders or other quarantine mandates issued by local, state or federal authorities, have had an adverse effect on our business and the businesses of our tenants. The full extent of the adverse impact on our results of operations, liquidity (including our ability to access capital markets), and our ability to acquire, dispose or lease properties for our portfolio, our joint venture partners portfolios and/or for the tenant-in-common and Delaware statutory trust real estate programs’ properties that we manage is unknown and will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. Our results of operations, liquidity and cash flows could be materially affected.
Many of our tenants operate in industries that depend on in-person interactions with their customers to be profitable and to fund their obligations under lease agreements with us. Measures taken to prevent or remediate COVID-19, including “shelter-in-place” or “stay-at-home” orders or other quarantine mandates have, with respect to some portion of our tenants, (i) decreased or prevented our tenants’ customers’ willingness or ability to frequent their businesses, and/or (ii) impacted supply chains from local, national and international suppliers or otherwise delayed the delivery of inventory or other materials necessary for our tenants’ operations, which has adversely affected, and is likely to continue to adversely affect, their ability to maintain profitability and make rental payments to us under their leases. Tenants may also, as a result of such public health crisis, orders or mandates and any resulting economic downturn, request rent deferrals, rent abatement or early termination of their leases as well as may be forced to temporarily or permanently close or declare bankruptcy which could reduce our cash flows and negatively affect our ability to pay dividends at current levels or at all. Specifically, as a result of COVID-19 and various governmental orders currently in place, a number of our tenants have either closed their businesses or are operating with limited operations and/or have submitted requests for rent relief or failed to pay rent. In addition, state, local or industry-initiated efforts, such as tenant rent freezes or suspension of a landlord’s ability to enforce evictions, may also affect our ability to collect rent or enforce remedies for the failure to pay rent. We believe our tenants do not have a clear contractual right to cease paying rent due to government-mandated closures and we intend to enforce our rights under the lease agreements. However, COVID-19 and the related governmental orders present fairly novel situations for which the ultimate legal outcome cannot be assured and it is possible future governmental action could impact our rights under the lease agreements. The extent of tenant requests and actions and the impact to the Company’s results of operations and cash flows is uncertain and cannot be predicted.
The spread of COVID-19 has caused significant financial market volatility and an economic downturn (including a potential global recession), and the length and extent of such volatility and downturn are currently unknown. The financial impact of COVID-19 could have a material and adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity and cash flows, in particular due to the potential (i) inability of our tenants to satisfy their rent obligations, (ii) inability of the Company to renew leases, lease vacant space or re-let space as leases expire on favorable terms, or at all, and (iii) difficulty for the Company accessing debt and equity capital on attractive terms, or at all. The effect of COVID-19 may also negatively impact our future compliance with financial covenants in our credit facility, indentures governing our senior notes and other debt agreements and result in a default and acceleration of indebtedness which could negatively impact our ability to make additional borrowings under our credit facility. The financial impact of COVID-19 could also negatively affect our ability to pay dividends or fund acquisitions.


As a result of COVID-19, the Company implemented a work-from-home policy to protect its employees. The COVID-19 pandemic and other epidemics, pandemics or other public health crises in the future may also impact the continued service and availability of our personnel, including our executive officers, and our ability to recruit, attract and retain skilled personnel. Operationally, although we have implemented a work-from-home policy, if significant portions of our workforce, including key personnel, are unable to work effectively because of illness, government actions or other restrictions implemented in connection with COVID-19, the impact on our business could be exacerbated.
The full extent of the adverse impact of COVID-19 on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations cannot be predicted and may be material. The magnitude will depend on factors beyond our control including actions taken by local, state, national and international governments, non-governmental organizations, the medical community, our tenants, and others. Moreover, risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and filed with the SEC on February 26, 2020 could be heightened as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 or any other public health crisis.
