2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Interim Unaudited Financial Information
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017,2018, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on February 22, 2018.2019. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted from this report on Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
Results for the interim periods in this report are not necessarily indicative of future financial results and have not been audited by our independent registered public accounting firm. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly our condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 20182019 and 2017,2018, and for the three months ended March 31, 20182019 and 2017.2018. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature and consistent with the adjustments recorded to prepare the annual audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2017.2018. All amounts reflected are in millions except share and per share data.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, as well as all wholly ownedwholly-owned subsidiaries and any consolidated variable interest entities. All inter-companyintercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
InvestmentsReclassifications

Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2018
Straight-line rent receivable of $128.7 million included in Rent and other receivables was previously included in Other assets.

Statement of Cash Flows for the period ended March 31, 2018

The cash flow effect of the change in repayments of our unsecured term loan of $902.7 million included in Repayments of unsecured term loan was previously included in Debt.
Investment in Real Estate
Acquisition of Properties
Investment in real estate consist of land, buildings, improvements and integral equipment utilized in our data center operations and land held for future development. Additions and improvements which extendoperations. We expect most acquisitions to be an asset’s useful life or increase its functionality are capitalized and depreciated over the asset’s remaining life. Maintenance and repairs are expensedacquisition of assets rather than a business combination as incurred.
We capitalize project costs related to the development and construction of our data centers including interest, real estate taxes, insurance, and other direct costs. Indirect project costs not clearly related to development and construction are expensed as incurred. Indirect project costs that clearly relate to development and construction are capitalized and allocated to the developments to which they relate. For each development, capitalization begins when we determine that the development is probable and significant development activities are underway. We suspend capitalization at such time as significant development activity ceases, but future development is still probable. We cease capitalization when the developments or other improvements are completed and ready for their intended use, or if the intended use changes such that capitalization is no longer appropriate. Building andtypical acquisitions consist

related improvements are generally considered ready for their intended use when the designated premises, which could be less than the entire building, is ready for occupancy.
When we are the lessee of the property and we are involved in the construction of structural improvements, we are deemed the accounting owner of the leased real estate. At inception,properties whereby substantially all the fair value of thegross assets acquired is concentrated in a single asset set (land, building excluding land, is recorded as a leasehold asset, and the construction and modification costs to the building that are not funded by us are recorded as a liability which is recorded as lease financing arrangements. As construction progresses, the asset and obligation increase by the cost of the structural improvements, which approximate the fair value. At completion of the construction, if our involvement is deemed to continue, the leasehold asset is placed in service and depreciation commences.
Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset. Useful lives range from nine to thirty years for buildings, three to thirty years for building improvements, and two to twenty years for equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the asset’s useful life or the remaining lease term, including renewal optionsin-place leases), which are reasonably assured,treated as asset acquisitions. See Business Combinations and to the lesser of the fair value or financing arrangement obligation estimated at the end of the lease term.

Impairment of Real Estate Related Assets
If events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the real estate investment may not be recoverable, we make an assessment of the recoverability of the asset, usually at the individual property level, by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to our estimate of the aggregate undiscounted future operating cash flows expected to be generated over the holding period of the asset including its eventual disposition.  If the carrying amount, including related real estate intangible assets, exceeds the aggregate undiscounted future operating cash flows, we recognize an impairment loss to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset. We did not record any impairment losses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.Asset Acquisitions herein.
Business Combinations and Asset Acquisitions

We evaluate whether a transactionan acquisition is a business combination or an asset acquisition by determining whether the set of assets is a business.

When substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition. In an assetAsset acquisitions are recorded at the cumulative acquisition costs and allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed on a relative fair value basis. The Company allocates the purchase price paid forof real estate to identifiable tangible assets acquired is allocated between identified tangiblesuch as land, building, land improvements and intangible assetstenant improvements acquired based on relativetheir fair value. In estimating the fair value of each component, management considers appraisals, replacement cost, its own analysis of recently acquired and existing comparable properties, market rental data and other related information. Transaction costs associated with asset acquisitions are capitalized.
Business Combinations
When substantially all of the fair value is not concentrated in a group of similar identifiable assets, the set of assets will generally be considered a business and the Company applies the purchase method for business combinations, where all tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and all liabilities assumed are recorded at fair value. Any excess purchase price is recorded as goodwill. If the value of the acquisition is greater than the purchase price, a bargain purchase gain would be recorded. Transaction costs associated with business combinations are expensed as incurred.
The following discussion applies to our initial determination of fair value and the resulting subsequent accounting which is generally applicable to both asset acquisitions and business combinations.
The fair value of any tangible real estate assets acquired is determined by valuing the building as if it were vacant, and the “as-if-vacant”fair value is then allocated to land, buildings, equipment and improvements.  Land values are derived from appraisals, and building values are calculated asimprovements based on available information including replacement cost, less depreciationappraisal or estimates of the relative fair value of these assets using net operating income capitalization rates, discounted cash flow analysis or similar methods.fair value models.

We determine in-place lease values based on our evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease agreement and our overall relationship with that respective tenant by applying a fair value model. The estimates of fair value of in-place leases include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease up periods for the respective leasable area considering current market conditions. In estimating fair value of in-place leases, we consider items such as real estate taxes, insurance, leasing commissions, tenant improvements and other operating expenses to execute similar leases as well as projected rental revenue and carrying costs during the expected lease up period. We amortize the value of in-place leases acquired to expense over the approximate weighted average remaining term of the leases, adjusted for projected tenant turnover, on a composite basis.

We determine the value of above-market and below-market in-place leases for acquired properties based on the present value (using an interest rate that reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (1) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (2) estimates of current market lease rates for the corresponding in-place

leases, measured over a period equal to (i) the remaining non-cancellable lease term for above-market leases, or (ii) the remaining non-cancellable lease term plus any fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases.that we consider are reasonably certain that a lessee will execute such renewal option when a lease commences. We record the fair value of above-market and below-market leases as intangible assets or liabilities, and amortize them as an adjustment to revenue over the lease term. Due to the heavily negotiated terms of data center leases and their relative shorter-term maturity, the value of above-market or below-market in-place leases generally does not represent a significant portion of the fair value of the related real estate acquired.
We determine the value of other contractual rights based on our evaluation of the specific characteristics of the underlying contracts and by applying a fair value model to the projected cash flows or usage rights that considers the timing and risks associated with the cash flows or usage. We amortize the value of finite contractual rights over the remaining contract period. Indefinite-lived contractual rights are not amortized but are evaluated for impairment at least annually.

We determine the fair value of assumed debt by calculating the net present value of the scheduled debt service payments using current market-based terms for interest rates for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities that management believes we could obtain.obtain on similar structures and maturities. Any difference between the fair value and stated value of the assumed debt is recorded as a discount or premium and amortized over the remaining life of the loan.

In a business combination or an acquisition, we retain the previous lease classification unless there is a lease modification and that modification is not accounted for as a separate new lease. We elected to apply the short-term lease measurement and recognition exemption available under the new accounting standard for leases (discussed below in Note 3. "Recently Adopted Accounting Standards") to leases that have a remaining lease term of 12 months or less at the acquisition date and would not recognize an intangible asset if the terms of an operating lease are favorable relative to market terms or a liability if the terms are unfavorable

relative to market terms. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful life of the assets and the remaining lease term at the date of acquisition.
Capitalization of Costs
We capitalize costs directly related to the development, pre-development or improvement of our investment in real estate, referred to as capital projects and other activities included within this paragraph. Costs associated with our capital projects are capitalized as incurred. If the project is abandoned, these costs are expensed during the period in which the project is abandoned. Costs considered for capitalization include, but are not limited to, construction costs, interest, real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, if appropriate. We capitalize indirect costs such as personnel, office and administrative expenses that are directly related to our development projects based on an estimate of the time spent on the construction and development activities. These costs are capitalized only during the period in which activities necessary to ready an asset for its intended use are in progress and such costs are incremental and identifiable to a specific activity to get the asset ready for its intended use. We determine when the capitalization period begins and ends through communication with project and other managers responsible for the tracking and oversight of individual projects. In the event that the activities to ready the asset for its intended use are suspended, the capitalization period will cease until such activities are resumed. In addition, we capitalize incremental initial direct costs incurred for successful origination of new leases which include internal and external leasing commissions. Interest expense is capitalized based on actual qualifying capital expenditures from the period when development commences until the asset is ready for its intended use, at the weighted average borrowing rate during the period. These costs are included in investment in real estate and depreciated over the estimated useful life of the related assets.
Costs incurred for maintaining and repairing our properties, which do not extend their useful lives, are expensed as incurred.
Impairment Losses
When events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a real estate investment may not be recoverable, we review the carrying value of the asset. When such impairment indicators exist, we review an estimate of the undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the real estate investment and proceeds from its eventual disposition and compare such amount to the carrying amount of the real estate investment. If our undiscounted cash flows indicate that we are unable to recover the carrying value of the real estate investment, an impairment loss is recognized. An impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the real estate investment's carrying value exceeds its estimated fair value. We did not record any impairment losses for the three months ended March 31, 2019 or 2018.
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Cash and cash equivalents include all non-restricted cash held in financial institutions and other non-restricted highly liquid short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less. Restricted cash includes cash equivalents held in our name to collateralize standby letters of credit or its use is restricted by contract or regulation.
Marketable Equity InvestmentInvestments

We hold investments in various joint ventures where the Company evaluates its ability to influence the operating or financial decisions of the investee in applying the appropriate method of accounting for such investments. Influence tends to be more effective as the investor's percent of ownership in the voting rights of the investee increases. Our equity investment which doesinvestments represent less than 20% of the voting rights of the investees and we do not qualifyexercise influence over the investee's operating and financial decisions. Accordingly, we do not account for our equity investments using the equity method accounting and has a ready marketaccounting. For further information about our equity investments, see Note 7. "Equity Investments".

Revenue Recognition

Our revenue consists of lease revenue and revenue from contracts with customers. The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, Leases (“ASC 842”), the new accounting standard for leases, effective January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective approach and prior periods were not restated. In addition, the Company adopted Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), the new accounting standard for revenue from contracts with customers, effective January 1, 2018 changes inusing the fair value are reported as a component of income (loss). Prior to January 1, 2018, such changes in fair value were reported as a component of comprehensive income (loss).modified retrospective approach.  See RecentlyNote 3. “Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements” section below. Dividends paid from operating profits are reported as a component of income (loss), while other dividends are reported as a return of capital.Standards” and Note 4. “Revenue Recognition”.

Rent and Other Receivables

Receivables consist principally of trade receivables from customers with expected credit losses recorded as an allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is estimated based upon historic patterns of credit losses for aged receivables as well as specific provisions for certain identifiable, potentially uncollectible balances.
Deferred Leasing and Other Contract Costs
Deferred leasing costs include leasing commissions to third party brokers and incremental commissions to employees and external and internal legal costs, which are capitalized and amortized over the term of the customer lease. Deferred leasing costs are presented in other assets and amortization of deferred leasing costs is presented in depreciation and amortization expense. If a lease terminates prior to the expiration of the lease, the remaining unamortized cost is written off to amortization expense.
Incremental commission costs paid in obtaining managed service contracts are amortized based on the transfer of goods or services to which the costs relate. The amortization expense is recognized over the contract term.
Deferred Financing Costs
Deferred financing costs include legal and bank issuance costs incurred in connection with issuance of debt, including costs associated with the issuance of our credit facility, and are presented as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of long-term debt. These financing costs are deferred and amortized to expense over the term of the debt and are included as a component of interest expense. When debt is paid prior to its scheduled maturity date or the underlying terms are materially modified, the remaining carrying value of deferred finance costs, along with certain other payments to lenders, is included in loss on early extinguishment of debt.

Deferred Revenue and Prepaid Rents

Deferred revenue is recorded when a customer makes a contractual payment in excess of revenues recognized in accordance with GAAP. Prepaid rent liability is recorded when a customer makes an advance payment or they are contractually obligated to pay any amounts in advance of the associated lease or service period.

Revenue Recognition

We adopted the new revenue recognition standard effective January 1, 2018. The information in this section describes our current accounting revenue recognition policies. See the section below “Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements” for additional information related to the adoption.

Lease Revenue:
Our leasing revenue primarily consists of colocation lease revenue,rent, metered power reimbursements managed services, equipment sales, and other services.interconnection revenue and is accounted for under ASC 842, Leases. We generally are not entitled to reimbursements for rental expenses including real estate taxes, insurance or other common area operating expenses. The colocation lease revenue and metered power reimbursements are recognized under the lease accounting standard and managed services, equipment sales, installations, and other services are recognized under the revenue accounting standard. Payment terms generally range from 30 to 120 days. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recognized when the collection of contractual rent, straight-line rent or customer reimbursements are deemed to be unlikely.

a. Colocation Rent Revenue
Colocation Lease Revenue and Metered Power Reimbursements

Colocationrent revenues, including interconnection revenue, are fixed minimum lease revenues arepayments generally billed monthly in advance based on the contracted power or leased space or contracted power.space. Some contracts have anmay provide initial free rent period or paymentsperiods and rents that escalate over the term of the contract. If rents escalate without the lessee gaining access to or control over additional leased spacepower or power,space at the beginning of the lease term, the rental payments are recognized as revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. If rents escalate because the lessee gains access to and control over additional power and or leased space, and power, revenue is recognized in proportion to the additional spacepower or powerspace in the periods that the lessee has control over the use of the additional spacepower or power.space. The excess of revenue recognized over amounts contractually due is recognized as a straight-line receivable, which is included in rent and other assetsreceivables in our consolidated balance sheet. When a customer makes an advance payment or they are contractually obligated to pay amounts in advance of the associated lease period, a prepaid rent liability is recorded. When a customer makes a contractual payment in excess of revenues recognized in accordance with GAAP, a deferred revenue liability is recorded. This deferred revenue liability is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected term of the lease, unless the pattern of service suggests otherwise.

Some of our leases are structured on a full-service gross basis in which the customer pays a fixed amount for both colocation rent and power. The revenue for these types of leases is recorded in colocation lease revenue. Other
b. Metered Power Reimbursements Revenue
Some of our leases provide that the customer will beis separately billed for power based upon actual or estimated metered usage. Some leases that include billing for metered power include an administrative fee that is charged to the customer.usage at rates then in effect. Metered power reimbursement revenue is variable lease payments generally billed one month in arrears, and an estimate of this revenue is accrued in the month that the associated power is provided.provided and recorded in metered power reimbursements.

Managed Services

Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Managed services, include the provisioning of a full-service managed datacenter, monitoring customer computer equipment managing backups and storage, utilization reportingsales, installations and other related ancillary information technology services. Management service contracts generally range from one to five years. Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in the contract andservices are recognized over time as we satisfy the performance obligation.
Equipment sales

under ASC 606.
Equipment sold by us generally consists of servers, switches, networking equipment, cable infrastructure and cabinets. Revenue is recognized at a point-in-time when control of the equipment transfers to the customer from the Company, which is deemed to take placegenerally occurs upon delivery to the customer.

OtherManaged services

include providing of a full-service managed data center, monitoring customer computer equipment, managing backups and storage, utilization reporting and other related ancillary information technology services. Management service contracts generally range from one to five years.
Other services are generally one-time services and include installation of customer equipment, performing customer system re-boots, server cabinet and cage management, power monitoring, shipping and receiving, resolving technical issues, and other non-recurring hands-on serviceservices requested by the customer. Installation services include mounting, wiring, and testing of customer

owned equipment. The installation period is typically short term in nature,duration, and accordingly, revenue from the installation of customer equipment will beis recognized at a point-in-time once the installation is complete and the performance obligation is satisfied. Revenue from other servicesOther service revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in the contract and recognized over time as we satisfy the Company performs the serviceperformance obligation.
Rent and Other Receivables
Receivables consist principally of trade receivables from customers and straight-line rent receivables with estimated credit losses recorded as the customer is determined to consume the benefits of the service as the Company performs.

We have adopted the practical expedient that allows us not to disclose information about remaining performance obligations that have original expected durations of one year or less, the amount of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations and when we expect to recognize that amount as revenuean allowance for the year. We have also adopted the “as invoiced” practical expedient, whereby the Company recognizes revenue in the amount that directly corresponds to the amount of value transferred to the customer.
Transaction and Acquisition Integration Expenses
Transaction expenses represent incremental legal, accounting and professional fees incurred in connection with business combinations and the non-recurring, incremental expenses incurred after a business combination or asset acquisition. These expenditures are expensed as incurred and do not include any recurring costs from our ongoing operations.
Income Taxes
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code and have qualified as a REIT since the year ended December 31, 2013. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income to our stockholders. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax at the corporate level, however, we are still subject to foreign, state and local income taxes in the locations in which we conduct business. We intend to operate in such a manner as to continue to qualify as a REIT, but no assurance can be given that we will operate in a manner so as to remain qualified as a REIT. Since the year ended December 31, 2013, we have conducted certain non-REIT activities through taxable REIT subsidiaries (each, a "TRS"). Income recognized by our TRSs is subject to applicable federal, foreign, state, and local income and margin taxes. We have no significant taxes associated with our TRSs for the periods ended March 31, 2018 or 2017. 
We have evaluated the current and deferred income tax related to taxes with respect to which we do not have a REIT exemption, and we have no significant tax liability or benefit as of March 31, 2018 or December 31, 2017.
We recognize the financial statement benefit of an uncertain tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. As of March 31, 2018, we had no significant uncertain tax positions.doubtful accounts.
Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions
Gains or losses from translation of foreign operations where the local currency is the functional currency are included as components of other comprehensive income (loss). The financial position of foreign subsidiaries is translated at the exchange rates in effect at the end of the period, while revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates during the period. Gains or losses from translation of foreign operations where the local currency is the functional currency are included as components of other comprehensive income (loss). Gains or losses from foreign currency transactions are included in determining net income.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense
We have a stock-based incentive award plan for our employees and directors. Stock-based compensation expense associated with these awards is recognized in general and administrative expenses, property operating expenses, and sales and marketing expenses in our consolidated statements of operations. We measure stock-based compensation at the estimated fair value on the grant date
CyrusOne Inc.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (unaudited)
(in millions of dollars, except per share)


and recognize the amortization of stock-based compensation expense over the requisite service period. Fair value is determined based on assumptions related to volatility, interest rates and ourthe market, and our company performance.

Fair Value Measurements
Income/(Loss) Per ShareFair value measurements are utilized in accounting for business combinations, asset acquisitions, testing of goodwill and other long-lived assets for impairment, recording unrealized gain/loss on available-for-sale securities and related disclosures. Fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities is defined as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The three-tier hierarchy that prioritizes certain inputs used in the methodologies of measuring fair value for asset and liabilities, is as follows:
Level 1—Observable inputs for identical instruments such as quoted market prices;
Level 2—Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs); and
Level 3—Unobservable inputs that reflect our determination of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. These inputs are developed based on the best information available, including our own data.

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income byDerivative Instruments

Derivative instruments are measured at fair value and recorded as assets or liabilities, depending on our rights or obligations under the weighted average number of common shares outstanding duringapplicable derivative contract. Derivatives that are not designated as hedges must be adjusted to fair value through earnings. For a derivative designated and that qualified as a cash flow hedge, the period excluding any unvested securities or unexercised options.

During periods of net loss, the assumed exercise of securities and options is anti-dilutive and is not includedchange in the calculationfair value and/or the net settlement of the derivative are reported in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss) as part of the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment. Any ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative is recognized directly in earnings. Amounts are reclassified out of other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings per share. Forwhen the three months ended March 31, 2017, any commonhedged investment is either sold or substantially liquidated.

143. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards


Leases

We adopted ASU 2016-02 (codified in ASC 842, Leases) on January 1, 2019, applied the package of practical expedients included therein and utilized the modified retrospective transition method with the cumulative effect of transition on the effective date. By applying the modified retrospective transition method, the presentation of financial information for periods prior to January 1, 2019 were not restated.

We elected the package of practical expedients, which permits us to not reassess (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (2) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and (3) any initial direct costs for any existing leases as of the effective date. We did not elect the hindsight practical expedient, which permits entities to use hindsight in determining the lease term and assessing impairment.

As a Lessee

The ASU requires that a liability be recorded on the balance sheet for all leases where the reporting entity is a lessee, based on the present value of future lease obligations. A corresponding right-of-use ("ROU") asset will also be recorded. Amortization of the lease obligation and the ROU asset for leases classified as operating leases are on a straight-line basis. Leases classified as financing leases are required to be accounted for as financing arrangements similar to the accounting treatment for capital leases under ASC 840, Leases (the former accounting standard for all leases, ("ASC 840")).

We elected the practical expedient to combine our lease and related non-lease components by asset class for our leases.

stock equivalents were anti-dilutive. ForWe elected a practical expedient to not evaluate land easements not previously accounted for as leases prior to the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017,entity’s adoption of the difference between basic and diluted earnings per share was not significant, representing less than one cent per share.new accounting standard for leases.

Business SegmentsWe elected to apply the short-term lease measurement and recognition exemption available for leases under the new accounting standard for leases that have a remaining lease term of 12 months or less.

Our data centers have similar economic characteristicsThe adoption of ASC 842 had a significant impact on our consolidated balance sheet due to the recognition of approximately $87.0 million of ROU assets and customers across all geographic locations, and our service offerings and delivery$123.2 million of services are provided inlease liabilities for operating leases. We recognized a similar manner, using$9.5 million cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings. The adjustment to retained earnings was driven principally by measurement of operating lease liabilities at the same types of facilities and similar technologies. Our chief operating decision maker, the Company's chief executive officer, reviews our financial information on an aggregate basis. As a result, we have concluded that we have one reportable business segment. One customer, Microsoft Corporation, a Fortune 500 company, represented approximately 19% and 17% of our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Use of Estimates
Preparationpresent value of the condensed consolidated financial statementsremaining lease payments at the adoption date of January 1, 2019. The increase was offset in conformitypart by impairment of ROU assets associated with GAAP requires management to make estimatesone build-to-suit ("BTS") arrangement recognized as an operating lease under the new accounting standard for leases.

Additionally, we de-recognized certain previously recognized BTS lease assets and assumptions that affectliabilities which under the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statementsnew accounting standard for leases are recognized as operating lease ROU assets and accompanying notes. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s knowledge of current events and actions that we may undertake in the future. Significant estimates include and are related to determining lease terms and revenue recognition, the fair value for purchase price allocations for business combinations and asset acquisitions, and the useful lives of real estate and other long-lived assets. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions.
Reclassifications
Certain financial information has been revised to conformliabilities. Prior to the current year presentation due to changes in the significanceadoption of the particular activity. The following items have been reclassified:

These items were previously includedrecorded as lease expenses in separate lines, debt issuance costs ($8.8 million) and paymentproperty operating expenses in our consolidated statement of debt extinguishment costs ($30.3 million), in the comparable prior year period.operations.

Recently Adopted Accounting PronouncementsAs a Lessor

The accounting for lessors remained largely unchanged from ASC 840. However, the new accounting standard for leases requires that lessors expense certain costs to obtain a lease that are not incremental to origination of a lease. Upon adoption, initial direct cost that are not incremental are expensed as general and administrative expense in our consolidated statements of operations. Prior to the adoption of new standard, these costs were capitalizable. As a result of electing the package of practical expedients, initial direct costs have not been reassessed prior to the effective date and therefore adoption of the lease standard did not have an impact on our previously reported consolidated statements of operations with respect to initial direct costs.

In addition, under the new accounting standard for leases certain exceptions under the previous standard for real estate no longer are applicable in the evaluation of the lease classification as an operating, sales type or direct financing lease. In the event that a real estate lease is classified as sales-type lease, subject to certain conditions, a gain or loss is recognized based on the present value of the lease payments and residual value.

We elected the practical expedient to combine all of our lease and nonlease revenue components into a single combined lease component as nonlease components have the same pattern of transfer as the related predominant operating lease component. Our customer leases include options to extend or terminate the lease agreements. We do not generally include extension or termination options in a customer’s lease term for lease classification purposes or for recognizing lease revenue unless we are reasonably certain the customer will exercise these extension or termination options at lease commencement.

Revenue from contracts with customers

On January 1, 2018, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")FASB pronouncement ASU 2014-09 with respect to revenue recognition. The revised guidance outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and

superseded prior revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific revenue guidance. The revised guidance replaced most existing revenue and real estate sale recognition guidance in GAAP. The standard specifically excludes lease contracts, which is our primary recurring revenue source; however, our revenue accounting for managed services and sales of real estate and equipment will follow the revised guidance. We have adopted the new standard using the modified retrospective transition method, where financial statement presentations prior to the date of adoption are not adjusted. Transactions that were not closed as of the adoption date were adjusted to reflect the new standard and we recorded an adjustment to beginning retained earnings of $0.3 million. See Note 3 "Revenue Recognition" for further

Equity investments

On January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU 2016-01 related to equity investments. Equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) are to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value now recognized in net income. PreviouslyPrior to adoption of this update, changes in fair value for available for sale equity investments were recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). The adoption of the new standard was made through a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings of $75.6 million. Prior financial statement amounts were not adjusted. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, we recorded an unrealized gain of $40.5 million in our consolidated statement of operations.

New Accounting Pronouncements

On February 25, 2016,In August 2018, the SEC issued Securities Act Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, which amends certain of its disclosure requirements and is intended to facilitate the disclosure of information to investors and simplify compliance without significantly altering the total mix of information provided to investors. The amendments became effective on November 5, 2018. Among the amendments is the requirement to present the changes in shareholders' equity in the interim financial statements (either in a separate statement or footnote) in quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. In accordance with the SEC's rule, the company's first presentation of changes in shareholders’ equity is shown in this Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2019.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, regarding2018-15, which clarifies the accounting for leasesimplementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract.

We plan to adopt the new standard January 1, 2019.

Lessees will need to recognize on their balance sheet a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for virtually all of their leases (other than leases that meet the definition of a short-term lease).is allowed. The liability will be equal to the present value of lease payments. The asset will be based on the liability, adjusted for any initial direct costs of the lease, lease incentives or early lease payments, where applicable. For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Operating leases will result in straight-line rent expense (similar to current operating leases) while finance leases will result in interest and amortization expense (similar to current capital leases). Classification will be based on criteria that are largely similar to those applied in current lease accounting. The new standard may be adopted using a modified retrospective transition, and provides for certain practical expedients. We areCompany is evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02 on our consolidated financial statements, where we believe the primary impact as a lessee will relate to leases where we are deemed to be the accounting owner of leasehold improvement.

Regarding lessors, ASU 2016-02 originally stated that lessors would be required to bifurcate certain lease revenues between lease and non-lease components, however, the practical expedient included in the ASU the FASB voted to finalize in March 2018 allows lessors to account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component if certain criteria are met. Additionally, only incremental direct leasing costs may be capitalized under this new guidance, which is primarily consistent with the Company’s existing policies. In light of the new practical expedients, we continue to evaluate the impact of the new standard.standard but does not believe that adoption will have a significant impact on the Company.

In JanuaryAugust 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-01,2018-13, which permits an entitychanges the fair value measurement disclosure requirements of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. The amendments are part of the FASB’s disclosure framework project to elect an optional transition practical expedient to not evaluate land easements under lease accounting that existed or expired priorimprove the effectiveness of disclosures in the notes to the entity’sfinancial statements by facilitating clear communication of the information required by GAAP that is most important to financial statement users and are intended to improve the effectiveness of disclosure requirements on fair value measurement by using those concepts. The guidance is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is allowed. The Company is evaluating the impact of the new lease accounting as discussed above and that were not previously accounted for as leases. Once the new lease standard is adopted, it should be applied prospectively to all new or modified land easements. Accordingly, the amendments in this update are effective along with the requirements in ASU 2016-02 and an entity that early adopts the new lease standard should apply this update upon adoption. The Company expects to adopt this new guidance on January 1, 2019 along with the new lease standard and will continue to evaluate the impact of this guidance until it becomes effective.standard.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 providing guidance which requires certain financial assets to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The guidance affects entities holding financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. The guidance will apply to our trade receivables, notes receivable, net investments in leases and any other future financial assets that have the contractual right to receive cash that we may acquire in the future. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning for us January 1, 2020. Early adoption is permitted.allowed. We are currently evaluating the full impact of the new standard.

We have consistently applied our revenue accounting policies to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements except for customer equipment installation services. Beginning with our adoption of revenue recognition in ASU 2014-09 on January 1, 2018 (see Note 2, "Revenue Recognition" and "Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements"), revenue from the

4. Revenue Recognition
Lease Revenue
Lease revenue primarily consists of colocation rent and metered power reimbursements from the lease of our data centers. Colocation leases may include all or portions of a data center, where customers may also lease office space to support their colocation operations. Revenue is primarily based on power usage as well as square footage. Customer lease arrangements customarily contain provisions that allow for renewal or continuation on a month-to-month arrangement, and certain leases contain early termination rights. We do not include any of these extension or termination options in a customer’s lease term for lease classification purposes or for recognizing lease revenue unless we are reasonably certain the customer will exercise these extension or termination options at lease commencement. At lease inception, early termination is generally not deemed probable due to the significant economic penalty incurred by the lessee to exercise its early termination right and to relocate their equipment installed in our facilities. Our customer lease arrangements generally do not provide any option to purchase a leased asset and are classified as operating leases.

The future minimum lease payments to be received under non-cancellable operating leases, excluding month-to-month arrangements and metered power reimbursements are shown below:

Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Revenue from equipment sales and the installation of customer equipment is recognized at a point-in-time as the Company performs the service. The asset being enhanced or installed belongspoint-in-time. Title to such assets are transferred to the customer, and the benefits of the installation service are being consumed at the completion of the service. Prior to the adoption of the new revenue recognition standard, the revenue from these transactions was deferred over the contract term. The deferred revenue liability balance related to completed installations, less any associated deferred costs, as of the date of adoption, calculated on a cumulative modified retrospective basis was $0.3 million and has been included in the cumulative effective adjustment to opening retained earnings.

There was no material impact to the consolidated financial statements due to the change in accounting policies upon adoption, including relating to customer equipment installation revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

4. Investments in Real Estate

Acquisitions of Real Estate
On December 21, 2017, the Company announced the execution of a definitive agreement to purchase Zenium Data Centers ("Zenium"), a leading hyperscale data center provider in Europe with four total properties in London and Frankfort. The Company and the sellers have agreed to extend the Long Stop Date (as defined in the sale and purchase agreement relating to the transaction) for obtaining German regulatory approval to May 18, 2018, after which either party may terminate the agreement if regulatory approval has not been obtained. The Company expects to fund the Zenium purchase with cash on hand and credit facility draws.
On February 28, 2017, CyrusOne acquired two data centers located in Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina and Somerset, New Jersey from Sentinel Data Centers which was accounted for as an asset acquisition (the "Sentinel Properties"). The Company paid aggregate cash consideration of approximately $492.3 million, including related closing costs. The two properties consist of approximately 160,000 colocation square feet and approximately 21 megawatts of power capacity.

One customer represented approximately 21% and 19% of our revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.

5. Leases - As a Lessee

ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term. Variable lease payments consist of non-lease components and services related to the lease. Variable lease payments are excluded from the ROU assets and lease liabilities and are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. For purposes of determining the lease liability we estimated our incremental borrowing rate, based on information available at the lease commencement date. Fixed contractual payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the corresponding lease term.

The new accounting standard for leases defines initial direct costs as only the incremental costs of signing a lease. Initial direct costs related to leasing that are not incremental and are expensed as general and administrative expense in our consolidated statements of operations. As a result of electing the package of practical expedients, initial direct costs have not been reassessed prior to the effective date and therefore adoption of the lease standard did not have an impact on our previously reported consolidated statements of operations with respect to initial direct costs.

Our operating lease agreements primarily consist of leased real estate and are included within operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

Many of our lessee agreements include options to extend the lease, which are not included in our minimum lease payments unless they are reasonably certain to be exercised at lease commencement. Rental expense related to operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

We use leasing as a source of financing for certain data center facilities and related equipment. We currently operate five data center facilities subject to finance leases. The remaining terms of our finance leases range from two to twenty-two years. We have options to extend the initial lease term on all but one of these leases. Finance leases are included in buildings and equipment, finance lease liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets.

We currently lease twelve other facilities under operating lease agreements for our data centers, sales offices, international location offices and our corporate headquarters located in Dallas, Texas. Our leases have remaining lease terms ranging from one to seventeen

As of March 31, 2019 the American Depositary Share ("ADS") Class A ordinary share equivalent was $35.69 per ADS for an equity investment fair value of $286.7 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the unrealized gain on investment of $101.2 million and $40.5 million was recognized in the consolidated statement of operations in unrealized gain on marketable equity investment, respectively.

On October 8, 2018, the Company made an $11.9 million investment in exchange for a 10% equity interest in ODATA Brasil S.A. and ODATA Colombia S.A.S. (collectively "ODATA"). ODATA, a Brazilian headquartered company, specializes in providing colocation services to wholesale customers, such as hyperscale cloud providers, financial services and telecommunications companies, and also to enterprises across multiple industries. On October 30, 2018, the Company made an additional $0.7 million investment in ODATA Colombia S.A.S. In connection with these investments, CyrusOne and ODATA entered a commercial agreement covering leasing activity with CyrusOne customers in the ODATA portfolio. In addition, our Chief Technology Officer joined the ODATA board of directors in October 2018. In evaluating the appropriate accounting method for its investment in ODATA, the Company considered its right to appoint a director to the ODATA board of directors, as well as other relevant factors, in evaluating the Company's ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of ODATA as provided in ASC 323-10-15-6 and concluded that the investment should be accounted for under the cost method.

In March 2019, the Company entered into a cross-currency interest rate swap pursuant to which, we will pay floating interest on €238.1 million and receive floating interest on $270.0 million, to hedge the variability of future cash flows attributable to changes in the 1-month USD LIBOR versus EUR LIBOR rates. The swap matures in December 2019 and net interest payments are recognized in earnings, including $0.3 million reduction in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

On March 29, 2018, the Company entered into a new $3.0 billion unsecured credit facility. The new credit facility consists of a $1.7 billion revolving credit facility ("$1.7 Billion Revolving Credit Facility"), which includes a $750$750.0 million multicurrency borrowing sublimit, a 5-year term loan with commitments totaling $1.0 billion ("2023 Term Loan") and a $300$300.0 million 7-year term loan ("2025 Term Loan") (collectively, the "$3.0 Billion Credit Facility"). We borrowed $700.0 million under the 2023 Term Loan on March 31, 2018, and the 2023 Term Loan includes a delayed draw feature which allows the Company to draw $300$300.0 million in up to three tranches over a six-month period in multiple currencies. The Company exercised the draw as a part of the acquisition of Zenium Topco Ltd. and certain other affiliated entities ("Zenium"). The $1.7 Billion Revolving Credit Facility has the option to borrow in non-USD currencies and includes a one-year option which, if exercised by the Company, would extend the final maturity to March 2023. The $3.0 Billion Credit Facility also includes an accordion feature providing for an aggregate increase in the revolving and term components to $4.0 billion, subject to certain conditions. The $1.7 Billion Revolving Credit Facility, 2023 Term Loan and 2025 Term Loan are prepayable at our option.

The previous $2.0 billion credit facility consisted of a $1.1 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility ("$1.1 Billion Revolving Credit Facility"), a $250$250.0 million 5-year term loan ("2021 Term Loan") and a $650$650.0 million 7-year term loan ("2022 Term Loan") (collectively, the "$2.0 Billion Credit Facility"). The aggregate outstanding principal balance of the $2.0 Billion Credit Facility at the date of the prepayment was $900.0 million and we recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $3.1 million.

We pay commitment fees for the unused amount of borrowings on the $1.7 Billion Revolving Credit Facility and fees on any outstanding letters of credit. The commitment fees are equal to 0.25% per annum of the actual daily amount by which the aggregate revolving commitments exceed the sum of outstanding revolving loans and letter of credit obligations. The commitment fees decrease to 0.15% per annum upon 50% or greater utilization. We also paid commitment fees on the $1.1 Billion Revolving Credit Facility through its retirement in March 2018. Commitment fees were $0.5 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, and $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017.respectively.

As of March 31, 2018,2019, we had $1,000.0 million, $300.0 million and $415.8 million outstanding under the 2023 Term Loan, the 2025 Term Loan and the $1.7 Billion Revolving Credit Facility, respectively, and additional borrowing capacity under the $3.0 Billion Credit Facility was approximately $2.0$1.3 billion which included $1.7 billion(all under the $1.7 Billion Revolving Credit Facility and $300.0Facility), net of $8.0 million under the 2023 Term Loan.

As of March 31, 2018 and 2017, we had $7.8 million and $8.5 million, respectively, of outstanding letters of credit issued under our credit facilities.

8.10. Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities

Fair value measurements are based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As a basis for considering assumptions in fair value measurements, a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’sentity's own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy) has been established. 

Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that we have the ability to access. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability that are typically based on an entity’sentity's own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity. 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 fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, rent and other receivables, construction costs payable, dividends payable and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their carrying value because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The carrying value, exclusive of deferred financing costs, for the revolving credit facilities and the floating rate term loans approximate estimated fair value as of March 31, 20182019 and December 31, 2017,2018, due to the floating rate nature of the interest rates and the stability of our credit ratings.

Hedging Activities

When we use derivative instruments, it is generally to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rate movements. We have not entered into, and do not plan to enter into, financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. To manage foreign currency exposure, we have entered into Euro denominated debt and cross-currency swap to hedge the Company's net investment in its Euro functional currency consolidated subsidiaries and the variability in EUR-USD exchange rate.

Accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative and the designation of the derivative, including whether we have elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as foreign currency risk or interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge.
CyrusOne Inc.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (unaudited)
(in millions dollars, except per share)



For derivatives designated as "cash flow" hedges, the change in the fair value of the derivative is initially reported in "Other comprehensive income" ("OCI") in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently reclassified into gain (loss) when the hedged transaction affects earnings, or the hedging relationship is no longer highly effective. We assess the effectiveness of each hedging relationship whenever financial statements are issued, or earnings are reported and at least every three months.

During March 2019, the Company entered into a cross-currency swap whereby the Company pays floating interest on €238.1 million and receives floating interest rate on $270.0 million (a "pay-floating, receive-floating interest rate swap") to hedge the variability of future cash flows attributable to changes in the 1-month USD LIBOR versus EUR LIBOR rates. The pay-floating, receive-floating interest rate swap has an effective date of March 2019 and a maturity date of December 2019 and is recognized in earnings. This interest rate swap effectively convert $270.0 million to €238.1 million debt floating based on the Eur-Euribor rate. As of March 31, 2019, we had borrowings subject to this pay-floating, receive-floating interest rate swaps with aggregate principal balances of approximately $270.0 million.

Net Investment Hedges

In addition to the $270.0 million borrowings subject to a cross-currency swap discussed above we have $130.0 million included in our $415.8 million outstanding on our unsecured $1.7 Billion Revolving Credit Facility, see Note 9. "Debt" as of March 31, 2019. These borrowings are designated as, and are effective as, economic hedges of our net investments in foreign entities. Exchange rate variations impact our financial results because the financial results of our foreign subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars each period, with the effect of exchange rate variations being recorded in OCI as part of the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment. As a result, changes in the value of our borrowings under the Euro-denominated revolver under our $1.7 Billion Revolving Credit Facility and synthetically swapped debt will be reported in the same manner as foreign currency translation adjustments, which are recorded in OCI as part of the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment.

The following table presents the effect of our derivative financial instruments on our accompanying consolidated financial statements (in millions):

Awards issuable under the LTIP include common stock, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock options and other incentive awards. CyrusOne Inc. has reserved a total of 8.9 million shares of CyrusOne Inc. common stock for issuance pursuant to the LTIP, which may be adjusted for changes in capitalization and certain corporate transactions. To the extent that an award, if forfeitable, expires, terminates or lapses, or an award is otherwise settled in cash without the delivery of shares of common stock to the participant, then any unpaid shares subject to the award will be available for future grant or issuance under the LTIP. The payment of dividend equivalents in cash in conjunction with any outstanding awards will not be counted against the shares available for issuance under the LTIP. The related stock compensation expense incurred by CyrusOne Inc. is allocated to the operating partnership. Shares available under the LTIP at March 31, 2018,2019, were approximately 5.14.5 million.

Restricted stock units and restricted stock are issued as time basedeither time-based (where the award vests ratably over time and is not subject to future performance targets and, accordingly, is initially recorded at the current market price at the time of grant) and market or performance basedperformance-based (where the award is recorded at fair value at the time of grant and vesting of the award, if any, is based on achieving certain financial targets, currently based on shareholder return). The restricted stock have the right to receive dividends and the restricted stock units have the right to receive dividend equivalents in cash.cash and holders of restricted stock have the right to receive dividends. The performance-based awards accrue dividends that are payable upon settlement of the award.

12. Income (Loss) per Share

Basic income (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. In addition, net income (loss) applicable to participating securities and the participating securities are both excluded from the computation of basic income (loss) per share.

Diluted income (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, including restricted stock outstanding. If there is net income during the period, the dilutive impact of common stock equivalents outstanding would also be reflected.

Also as a part of the agreement, the Company's Chief Executive Officer joined the board of directors of GDS on June 22, 2018.

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company incurred $0.5 million of commission and referral charges and accrued expenses payable to GDS. The commission and referral charges were capitalized as deferred leasing costs and will be amortized over the terms of the respective customer leases. The Company has not recognized any referral revenue related to the agreement with GDS in 2019 or 2018. See Note 7. "Equity Investments" for additional information related to our GDS investment.

The Company has a 10% equity interest in ODATA, a Brazilian headquartered company that specializes in providing colocation services to wholesale customers, such as hyperscale cloud providers, financial services and telecommunications companies, and also to enterprises across multiple industries. In connection with these investments, CyrusOne and ODATA entered a commercial agreement covering leasing activity with CyrusOne customers in the ODATA portfolio. Also as a part of the agreement, the Company's Chief Technology Officer joined the ODATA board of directors in October 2018. See Note 7. "Equity Investments" for additional information related to our ODATA investment.

14. Income Taxes
CyrusOne Inc. elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2013. To remain qualified as a REIT, the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to its stockholders and meet various other requirements imposed by the Code relating to such matters as operating results, asset holdings, distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership. Provided we continuethe Company continues to qualify for taxation as a REIT, we arethe Company is generally not subject to corporate level federal income tax on the earnings distributed currently to ourits stockholders. It is ourthe Company's policy and intent, subject to change, to distribute 100% of ourits taxable income and therefore except as discussed below, no provision is required in the accompanying financial statements for federal income taxes with regards to activities of CyrusOne Inc. and its subsidiary pass-through entities.
The activitiesREIT and certain of our TRSs include performing services for our customers that would otherwise be considered impermissible for REITs. While CyrusOne Inc. and the Operating Partnership do not pay federal income taxes, weits subsidiaries are still subject to foreign, state and local income taxes, infranchise taxes, and gross receipts taxes. The Company has elected to treat certain of its subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries ("TRSs"). The Company's TRSs are subject to U.S. federal, state and local corporate income taxes. The Company's foreign subsidiaries are subject to corporate income taxes in the locationsjurisdictions in which we conduct business.Income tax expense was $0.8they operate.

11. Commitments and Contingencies

We lease certain data center facilities and equipment from third parties. Operating lease expense was $2.2 million and $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Certain of these leases provide for renewal options with fixed rent escalations beyond the initial lease term.

As of March 31, 2018, future minimum lease payments required under operating leases having initial or remaining non-cancellable lease terms in excess of one year are as follows (in millions):

As of March 31, 2018, we had outstanding letters of credit of $7.8 million as security for obligations under the terms of our lessee agreements.

We have entered into non-cancellable purchase commitments for construction of data center facilities and acquisition of equipment. As of March 31, 2018, these commitments were approximately $138.8 million and are expected to be incurred over the next one to two years. In addition, we have entered into equipment and utility power contracts, which require minimum purchase commitments for power. These agreements range from one to two years and provide for payments for early termination or require minimum payments for the remaining term. As of March 31, 2018,2019, the minimum commitments for these arrangements were approximately $45.0$51.0 million.

During the normal course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries have made certain indemnities and commitments to customers, vendors and associated parties related to the use, protection and security of intellectual property and claims for negligence or willful misconduct. Further, customer contracts generally require specified levels of performance related to uninterrupted service and cooling temperatures. Also in the normal course of our business, the Company is involved in legal, tax and regulatory proceedings arising from the conduct of ourits business activities. Management assesses the probability that these performance standards, credits, claims or indemnities have been incurred and liabilities or asset reserves are established for loss contingencies when the losses associated are deemed to be probable and the loss can be reasonably estimated. Based on information currently available, we believethe Company believes that the outcome of such matters will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material effect on ourits consolidated financial statements.

Overview
Our Company
Company. We are a fully integrated, self-managed data center real estate investment trust ("REIT") that owns, operates and develops enterprise-class, carrier-neutral, multi-tenant and single-tenant data center properties. Our data centers are generally purpose-built facilities with redundant power and cooling. They are not network specific and enable customer connectivity to a range of telecommunication carriers. We provide mission-critical data center facilities that protect and ensure the continued operation of information technology ("IT") infrastructure for nearlyapproximately 1,000 customers in 4548 data centers and 2 recovery centers in 12 distinct13 markets (10 cities in the U.S., London, U.K., Singapore and Singapore)Frankfurt, Germany). We provide twenty-four hours-a-day, seven-days-a-week security guard monitoring with customizable security features.
We provide mission-critical data center real estate assets that protect and ensure the continued operation of IT infrastructure for our customers. Our goal is to be the preferred global data center provider to Fortune 1000, including the largest enterprises and providers of cloud services. As of March 31, 2018, our customers included approximately 200 of the Fortune 1000, or private or foreign enterprises of equivalent size, representing approximately 73% of our annualized rent as of March 31, 2018. Additionally, as of March 31, 2018, our top 10 customers represented approximately 42% of our annualized rent.

We cultivate long-term strategic relationships with our customers and provide them with solutions for their data center facilities and IT infrastructure requirements. Our offerings provide flexibility, reliability and security delivered through a tailored, customer service focused platform that is designed to foster long-term relationships. We focus on attracting customers that have not historically outsourced their data center needs and providing them with solutions that address their current and future needs. Our facilities and construction design allow us to offer flexibility in density and power resiliency, and the opportunity for expansion as our customers' needs grow. The CyrusOne National IX Platform delivers interconnection across states and between metro-enabled sites within the CyrusOne footprint and beyond. The platform enables high-performance, low-cost data transfer and accessibility for customers by uniting our data centers.

As a full-service provider of data center solutions, our primary revenue sources consist of colocation revenue from the lease of our data centers and services or products we provide to our customers including managed services, equipment sales, installation and other services. Colocation leases may include all or portions of a data center, where customers may also lease office space to support their colocation operations. Revenue is based on square footage and power usage. Managed services are generally provided pursuant to contracts ranging from one to five years and include monitoring computer equipment, managing backups and storage, utilization reporting and other related ancillary information technology services using our equipment. Equipment sales, where title transfers to the customer, typically consists of servers, switches, networking equipment, cable infrastructure, cabinets and other miscellaneous technology communication equipment. Other services are generally one-time services and include installation of customer equipment, including products we sell to our tenants, performing customer system reboots, server cabinet and cage management, power monitoring, shipping and receiving, resolving technical issues, and other hands-on service requested by the customer. Installation services include mounting, wiring, and testing of customer owned equipment. As of March 31, 2018, approximately 84% of total revenue was derived from colocation lease revenue, approximately 11% was derived from metered power reimbursements, approximately 2% from equipment sales and approximately 3% from all other services.

Our Portfolio

As of March 31, 2018, our property portfolio included 45We own and operate 48 data centers and 2 recovery centers in 12 distinct markets (10 cities in the U.S., London and Singapore) collectively providing approximately 5.8totaling 7.0 million net rentable square feetNet Rentable Square Feet ("NRSF") and powered by approximately 567 megawatts of available critical load capacity. Since December 31, 2017, the NRSF has increased by 108,000 primarily due to expansions in Dallas of 50,000 NRSF, Northern Virginia of 50,000 NRSF, Raleigh-Durham of 4,000 NRSF and Phoenix of 4,000 NRSF.
We own 33, 86% of the Colocation Square Feet ("CSF") is leased and has 750 megawatts ("MW") of power capacity. This includes 12 buildings in which our data center facilitieswhere we lease such facilities. We are located. We lease the remaining 14 buildings, which account forlessee of approximately 11%5% of our total operating NRSF and 17% of our total annualized rent as of March 31, 2018. We also had2019. Also included in our total NRSF, CSF and MW are pre-stabilized assets (which include data halls that have been in service for less than 24 months and are less than 85% leased) that have approximately 1.0 million478,000 NRSF, under development primarily consisting38% of approximately 132,000 NRSF related to colocation ("CSF") and approximately 744,000 NRSF related to powered shell. the CSF is leased with capacity of 40 MW of power.
In addition, we have properties under development comprising approximately 3271.5 million NRSF and 82 MW of power capacity. The estimated remaining total costs to develop these properties is between $511.0 million and $589.0 million. The final costs to develop could change depending on the capital improvements required based on the lease contracts executed on such properties. We also have 484 acres of land that are available for future data center development. We believe our existing operating portfolio and development pipeline will allow us to meet the evolving needs of our existing customers and continue to attract new customers.



Operational Overview

The following discussion provides an overview of the Company’sour capital and financing activity, operations and transactions for the three months ended March 31, 20182019 and should be read in conjunction with the full discussion of the Company’sour operating results, liquidity and capital resources andincluded in this Form 10-Q as well as the risk factors included or incorporated by reference elsewhereset forth in this Quarterly ReportPart I, Item 1A of our annual report on Form 10-Q.10-K for the year ending December 31, 2018.

Outlook

We seek to maximize long-term earnings growth and shareholder value primarily through increasing cash flow at existing properties, and developing high-quality data center assets and campuses at attractive cash yields with long-term, stable operating income. In addition, the Company will, from time to time, acquire existing properties which meet our strategic criteria, offer in-place cash flow and have strong growth prospects.

Fundamentals for data center real estate remain strong, supported by trends that particularly favor data center assets, including the exponential growth in global data, the growth of e-commerce and demand for outsourcing of data storage and cloud-based applications. We expect continued economic growth in the markets we operate in 2019, which we expect to result in ongoing positive demand for data center space as companies expand and upgrade information system platforms.

New data center development, including speculative development, is present in most domestic and international metropolitan markets in response to strong tenant demand. However, construction remains rational in relation to net absorption in most markets. We expect that the operating environment will continue to be favorable for lessors given our favorable outlook for market demand for data center real estate.

In terms of capital investment, we will continue to pursue selective development of new buildings and the opportunistic acquisition of buildings in markets where we perceive demand and market rental rates will provide attractive financial returns.

We may, from time to time, selectively dispose of non-strategic assets in an effort to enhance long-term growth in earnings and cash flows, as well as to improve the overall quality of our portfolio.

We anticipate having sufficient liquidity to fund our capital and operating expenses, including costs to maintain our properties and distributions, though we may finance investments, including acquisitions and developments, with the issuance of new shares of our common stock, proceeds from asset sales or through additional borrowings. Please see "Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources" for additional discussion.



Inflation
The U.S. economy has experienced low inflation over the last several years, as a result, inflation has not had a significant impact on our business. Our customer leases generally do not provide for annual increases in rent based on inflation. As a result, we bear the risk of increases in the costs of operating and maintaining our data center facilities. Some of our leases have annual rent escalators, typically ranging from 1-3%; as a result we bear the risk of increases in operating costs. Some of our leases are structured to pass-through the cost of sub-metered utilities. In the future, we expect more of our leases to pass-through utility costs. In addition, approximately 67% of our leases expire within six years which enables us to replace existing leases with new leases at then existing rates.

The expansion and development of additional power capacity and building square feet contributed to our year-over-year revenue increase in 2019. As of March 31, 2019, the estimated remaining cost to development is between $511.0 million to $589.0 million and is expected to add 82 MWs and approximately 0.2 million CSF, 1.2 million powered shell, and 0.1 million of other supporting infrastructure. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2019, we acquired 30 acres of land in Santa Clara, California and San Antonio, Texas for future development for $40.1 million.

Capital and Financing Activity

During the first quarter ofIn March 2018, the Companywe entered into a new senior unsecured credit agreement ("$(the "$3.0 Billion Credit Facility"). The new agreement includes a $1.7 billion revolving credit facility (the "$1.7 Billion Revolving Credit FacilityFacility"), which includes a $750.0 million multicurrency borrowing sublimit, with a maturity of March 2022 that includes a one-year extension option exercisable by the Company,us, subject to certain conditions. The agreement includes a 5-year term loan with commitments totaling $1.0 billion ("2023(the "2023 Term Loan") and a $300$300.0 million 7-year term loan ("2025(the "2025 Term Loan"). The 2023 Term Loan includes a delayed draw feature which allows the Company to draw $300$300.0 million in up to three tranches over a six-month period in multiple currencies. The $1.7 Billion Revolving Credit Facility has the option to borrow in non-USD currencies. The $3.0 Billion Credit Facility also includes an accordion feature providing for an aggregate increase in the revolving and term components to $4.0 billion, subject to certain conditions. As of March 31, 2018, the Company2019, we had $700$1,000.0 million, $300.0 million and $300$415.8 million outstanding under the 2023 Term Loan, and the 2025 Term Loan and the $1.7 Billion Revolving Credit Facility, respectively. The $1.7 Billion Revolving Credit Facility, 2023 Term Loan and 2025 Term Loan are prepayable at our option.

The CompanyOn March 29, 2018, we used the proceeds of the $1.0 billion of borrowings under the $3.0 Billion Credit Facility made on March 29, 2018 to repay in full the Company’sour prior credit facility in an amount of $900$900.0 million and expects to usesubsequently used a portion of the remaining liquidity, along with cash, on hand, for further build out of existing data centers and the development of ournew data centers, including the acquisition of the Zenium portfolio, as further described below.centers.

During the first quarter of 2018, the Board authorized the Company sold approximately 2.8 millionto enter into sales agreements pursuant to which the Company may issue and sell from time to time shares of its common stock through its At-The-Market ("ATM"having an aggregate sales price of up to $500.0 million (the "2018 ATM Stock Offering Program"). During the fourth quarter of 2018, the Board authorized us to enter into sales agreements pursuant to which we may issue and sell from time to time shares of our common stock having an aggregate sales price of up to $750.0 million (the "New 2018 ATM Stock Offering Program"). The New 2018 ATM Stock Offering Program replaced the 2018 ATM Stock Offering Program. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we sold approximately 2.0 million shares of our common stock under our ATM stock offering program. The sales generatedprograms, generating net proceeds of approximately $142.9$104.1 million net ofafter giving effect to sales agent commissions of $1.8$1.3 million. As of March 31, 2018,2019, there was approximately $346.0$644.6 million under the New 2018 ATM Stock Offering Program available for future offerings.

Concentration of revenue

We define our annualized backlog as the twelve-month recurring revenue (calculated in remaining capacityaccordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”)) for executed lease contracts achieved upon full occupancy which have not commenced as of the $500.0 million authorized under the ATM stock offering program. In addition, subsequent toend of a period. Our backlog as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was approximately 180,000 shares at an average price of $51.08 settled by April 3, 2018.

Real Estate Acquisitions, Development$39.0 million and Other Activities

$54.0 million, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we had cash capital expenditures2019, one customer represented 21% of $145.2 million, the majority of which related to the construction of data centers resulting in the addition of 82,000 CSF, contributingour revenue. Similar to our revenue increase in 2018. Our developments in progress are expected to add 132,000 of CSF during 2018.

On December 2, 2017, the Company announced the execution of a definitive agreement to purchase four data centers in London, U.K. and Frankfurt, Germany (the “Zenium Acquisition” and the “Zenium” portfolio).  The Company and the sellers have agreed to extend the Long Stop Date (as defined in the sale and purchase agreement relating to the Zenium Acquisition) for obtaining German regulatory approval to May 18, 2018, after which either party may terminate the agreement if regulatory approval has not been obtained.

Operations

Total revenue increased 32% compared to the first quarter of 2017, with approximately 60% of the increase related to new customers and growth from existing customers and approximately 20% of the increase from an acquisition which closed in the first quarter of 2017.

Our operating income (defined as total revenue less total operating expenses) for the three months ended March 31, 2018 increased $7.9 million, a 40% increase fromnoted above, our operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase was driven by a higher increase in revenues of 32%, compared to a 30% increase in operating expenses, and an increase in gross margins of 14% for 2018, compared to 13% for 2017. Revenue increases werebacklog is primarily due to the increased NRSFrobust demand across the cloud and enterprise companies and larger lease contracts. Because GAAP revenue for any period is generally a function of approximately 25%straight line revenue recognized from lease contracts in existence at the beginning of a period, as discussed above. Our CSF leasedwell as lease contract renewals and new

customer lease contracts commencing during the period, backlog as of March 31, 2018 was 86%, compared to 88% asany period is not necessarily indicative of March 31, 2017. Gross margin increases were primarily due to the revenue increases with no directly corresponding increase in operating expenses, primarily sales and marketing, and the portionnear-term performance. Our presentation of facility maintenance costs that are relatively fixed.

Interest expense increased due to higher outstanding debt and increases in floating interest rates. If we borrow additional debt in the future, we would expect such borrowings to result in additional interest expense related thereto in subsequent periods.


Our investment in marketable equity investment resulted in an unrealized gain of $40.5 million. We have not received any distributions related to the investment in GDS, and while we do not control GDS’s decisions with respect to dividend payments, we do not expect to receive any dividendsbacklog may differ from GDS in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, we do not expect this investment to be a significant factorother companies in our cash flow from operations.industry.

The early extinguishment of our prior credit facility resulted in a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $3.1 million. This charge primarily related to the write off of previously incurred deferred finance costs. We incurred $14.9 million of new deferred finance costs in connection with the new $3.0 Billion Credit Facility.

The three months ended March 31, 20182019 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2017.2018.

Operations
As of March 31, 2019, we had approximately 1,000 customers (not including customers that have signed leases but have not begun occupying space), many of which have signed leases for multiple sites and multiple services, amenities and/or features. We generate

recurring revenues from leasing colocation space and nonrecurring revenues from the initial installation and set-up of customer equipment. We provide customers with data center services pursuant to leases with a customary initial term of three to ten years. As of March 31, 2019, the weighted average remaining term was 4.6 years based upon annualized rent. Lease expirations through 2021, excluding month-to-month leases, represent 24% of our total NRSF, or 37% of our aggregate annualized rent as of March 31, 2019. At the end of the lease term, customers may sign a new lease or automatically renew pursuant to the terms of their lease. The automatic renewal period could be for varying lengths, depending on the terms of the contract, such as, for the original lease term, one year or month-to-month. As of March 31, 2019, 1% of the NRSF in our portfolio was subject to month-to-month leases.

Revenue

For the three months ended March 31, 2018,2019, revenue was $196.6$225.0 million, an increase of $47.3$28.4 million, or 32%,14% compared to $149.3 million for the corresponding period in 2017. The acquisition of the Sentinel Properties on February 28, 2017 (the "Sentinel Acquisition") resulted in an increase in revenue of $14.6$196.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 20182018. Fluctuations in revenue are dependent upon our ability to maintain our existing revenue base, sell new capacity, and maintain or increase rental rates at our properties. Recurring rent churn of 2.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 increased by 1.6% as compared to $4.1 million for the corresponding prior year period. Metered power reimbursements increased $6.3 million, which includes $1.8 million from the Sentinel Acquisition. Leased CSF as of March 31, 2018 was 86% as compared to 88% as of March 31, 2017. The change primarily related to our increase in data centers in the lease-up stage, primarily properties in Dallas, Houston and Phoenix. Recurring rent churn was 0.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as compared to 1.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2017.2018. The Company calculates recurring rent churn as any reduction in recurring rent due to customer terminations, service reductions or net pricing decreases as a percentage of rent at the beginning of the period, excluding any impact from metered power reimbursements or other usage-based billing. Equipment salesColocation square feet increased 21% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were $4.3 million2019 as compared to $0.8 million for the corresponding period in 2017. The addition of new customers and growth from existing customers, net of churn and items mentioned above, resulted in increased revenue of $28.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

As Leased CSF as of March 31, 2019 and 2018 we had approximately 5,824,000 NRSF, anwas 86%. The occupancy percentage increase of approximately 1,179,000 NRSF from March 31, 2017. For twois primarily related to data centers in Dallasthe lease-up stage that we lease from third parties, representing 12,000 NRSF, the leases expiremoved into stabilized properties (which include data halls that have been in service for at least 24 months or are at least 85% leased) during 2018 and we do not intend to renew. The revenues from these data centers for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $2.0 million2019. The properties are located in Dallas, Chicago and the operating expenses was $1.4 million. As we do not intend to renew the leases for these data centers, these operations will phase out beginning in the second quarter of 2018.Northern Virginia.

Our capacity at March 31, 2018 was approximately 3,348,000 CSF, which is anThe revenue increase of 35% from March 31, 2017. We have a few data centers in the lease-up stage, and we refer to these as pre-stabilized properties. Excluding these properties, the leased rate$28.4 million for our stabilized portfolio was 92% as of March 31, 2018,2019, as compared to 92% as2018 is primarily due to the following:
$22.2 million increase in Colocation rent primarily due to $22.9 million increase from existing and new customers and a $10.6 million increase from the acquisition of March 31, 2017.Zenium in August 2018, offset in part by $6.5 million of rent churn and $4.8 million of lower termination fees.
$7.0 million increase in metered power reimbursements primarily due to $5.2 million from existing and new customers and $3.2 million from the Zenium acquisition offset in part by $1.4 million of rent churn.
$0.9 million increase in interconnection revenue
$1.9 million decrease primarily due to a decrease in equipment sales and
$0.2 million increase in other revenue from managed services.

Depreciation and amortization expense

For the three months ended March 31, 2018,2019, depreciation and amortization expense was $74.6$102.1 million, an increase of $18.9$27.5 million, or 34%37%, compared to $55.7$74.6 million for the corresponding period in 2017. The Sentinel Acquisition resulted in an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of $8.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The remainder of theThis increase was primarily driven by $14.0 million related to the Zenium acquisition and $14.5 million other assets that were placed in service after the first quarter of 2017.2018 offset in part by $1.0 million related to the derecognition of build-to-suit leases and their classification as operating leases under ASC 842 (see Note 3. "Recently Adopted Accounting Standards", for further information). Since March 31, 2018, approximately $889.2 million of new data center assets have been placed in service. Depreciation and amortization expense is expected to increase in future periods as we acquire and developcomplete the development of new properties and expandinstallation of equipment and facilities to support our existing data center facilities.customers.

Non-Operating Income and Expenses

Interest expense

For the three months ended March 31, 2018,2019, interest expense was $20.8$23.7 million, an increase of $7.2$2.9 million, or 53%14%, as compared to $13.6$20.8 million for the corresponding period in 2017.2018. A $9.1 million increase in gross interest expense was partially offset by a $4.2 million increase in our capitalized interest in 2019 compared to the corresponding period in 2018 due to increased development activity and $1.9 million decrease due to finance leases that were derecognized under the new accounting standard for leases. See Note 3. "Recently Adopted Accounting Standards". The increase in interest expense was primarily a result of the increase in the aggregate principal amount of senior notes outstanding from $474.8 million at the beginningbalances of the three months ended March 31, 2017,2023 Term Loan, 2025 Term Loan and $1.7 Billion Revolving Credit Facility as compared to $1.2 billion

during the three months ended March 31, 2018. The aggregate principal amount of senior notes increased to $800 million on March 17, 2017; however, with the increase the weighted average interest rate was lowered from 6.38% to 5.16%.prior year period. We anticipate drawing on our $3.0$1.7 Billion Revolving Credit Facility to fund, in part, our new investments in data centers, including potential acquisitions. Accordingly, we anticipate our interest expense to increase in future periods. The increase in interest expense was partially offset by an increase in our capitalized interest from the prior corresponding period in 2017 of $1.5 million.

Unrealized gain on marketable equity investmentsinvestment

For the three months ended March 31, 2018,2019, unrealized gain on our marketable equity investments was $40.5 million, primarily due to the increase in the Company's equity investment in GDS Holdings Limited ("GDS") was $101.2 million, primarily as a result of an appreciationincrease in GDS's share price from December 31, 2017.
Loss on early extinguishment of debt
Forover the three months ended March 31, 2018, loss on early extinguishment of debt was $3.1 million, primarily due to the Company's entering into a new senior unsecured credit agreement.

In addition, we had land purchases in San Antonio and Santa Clara.

The increase in equity investments was primarily due to the fair value increase in our GDS investment and resulting unrealized gain. We did not receive any distributions related to our equity investment during the three months ended March 31, 2019 or year ended December 31, 2018.

The increase in operating lease ROU assets is due to the new accounting standard for leases (see Note 5. "Leases").

The increase in debt, net was primarily due to continued development of data centersincreased borrowings on the $1.7 Billion Revolving Credit Facility.

The decrease in Chicago, Northern Virginia, Dallasfinance lease liabilities and Somerset less depreciation expense of $66.2 million.the increase in operating lease liabilities are due to the new accounting standard for leases (see Note 5. "Leases").
Cash and cash equivalents increased $76.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018.
The increase in additional paid in capital was primarily due to proceeds from the Company's March 2019 ATM stock offering program and our new credit facility, partially offset byunder the payoff of the old credit facility, the payment of dividends and capital expenditures. We intend to use a portion of our cash for the planned Zenium Acquisition.
Long-term debt, net increased $88.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase was primarily due to proceeds from the Company's new credit facility which was used to retire the prior credit facility.
Accounts payable and accrued expenses decreased $31.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The decrease is primarily due to the timing of interest payments on the senior notes, payments of annual property taxes and payment of the year-end bonus. Interest on the senior notes is paid semi-annually while interest on the credit facility is paid monthly. Annual property taxes for many of our data centers are due in the first quarter of the year.
Additional paid in capital increased $142.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase was primarily due to proceeds from the Company'sNew 2018 ATM stock offering program.Stock Offering Program.


Key Performance Indicators - Non-GAAP MeasurementsFinancial Measures

In addition to amounts presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”),GAAP, we also present certain supplemental non-GAAP performance measurements.financial measures related to our performance. These measurementsnon-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as being more important than comparable GAAP measurements.financial measures. In compliance with SEC requirements, our non-GAAP measurementsfinancial measures presented herein are reconciled to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP performance measurement.financial measure. Neither the SEC nor any regulatory body has passed judgment on these non-GAAP measurements.

Funds from Operations and Normalized Funds from Operations
    
We use funds from operations ("FFO") and normalized funds from operations ("Normalized FFO"), which are non-GAAP financial measures commonly used in the REIT industry, as supplemental performance measures. We use FFO and Normalized FFO as supplemental performance measures because, when compared period over period, they capture trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. We also believe that, as widely recognized measures of the performance of REITs, FFO and Normalized FFO are used by investors as a basis to evaluate REITs.

We calculate FFO as net income (loss) computed in accordance with GAAP before real estate depreciation and amortization and asset impairments and gain or loss on disposal. While it is consistent with the definition of FFO promulgated by the National

Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), our computation of FFO may differ from the methodology for calculating FFO used by other REITs. Accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to others.

We calculate Normalized FFO as FFO plus amortization of customer relationship intangibles, transaction, acquisition and other integration costs, legal claim costs, loss on early extinguishment of debt,debt; unrealized (gain) loss (gain) on marketable equity investments, lease exitinvestment; new accounting standards and regulatory compliance and the related system implementation costs; amortization of trade names; transaction, acquisition, integration and other related expenses; severance and management transition costs; legal claim costs and other special items including new accounting standards and system implementation costs, and severance and management transition costs, as appropriate. Because the value of the customer relationship intangibles is inextricably connected to the real estate acquired, the Company believes the amortization of such intangibles and impairments of such intangibles is analogous to real estate depreciation and impairments; therefore, the Company adds the customer relationship intangible amortization and impairments back for similar treatment with real estate depreciation and impairments. The Company believes itsWe believe our Normalized FFO calculation provides a comparable measure to that used by others in the industry.between different periods. Other REITs may not calculate Normalized FFO in the same manner. Accordingly, our Normalized FFO may not be comparable to others.

In addition, because FFO and Normalized FFO exclude real estate depreciation and amortization and real estate impairments, and capture neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or from 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 effect and could materially impact our results from operations, the utility of FFO and Normalized FFO as measures of our performance is limited. Therefore, FFO and Normalized FFO should be considered only as supplements to net income (loss) presented in accordance with GAAP as measures of our performance. FFO and Normalized FFO should not be used as measures of our liquidity or as indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions. FFO and Normalized FFO also should not be used as supplements to or substitutes for cash flow from operating activities computed in accordance with GAAP.

On January 1, 2018,2019, we adopted the new accounting standard with respect to revenue recognition,leases, see “Note 2. Summary of SignificantNote 3. "Recently Adopted Accounting Policies” in our financial statements included on Form 10-Q for additional information.Standards" and Note 5. "Leases". We have adopted the new standard using the modified retrospective transition method, where financial statement presentations prior to the date of adoption are not adjusted. Accordingly, all information related to periods prior to 20182019 have not been adjusted, including non-GAAP measurements.

Net Operating Income

We use Net Operating Income ("NOI"), which is a non-GAAP financial measure commonly used in the REIT industry, as a supplemental performance measure. We use NOI as a supplemental performance measure because, when compared period over

period, it captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs.expenses. We also believe that, as a widely recognized measure of the performance of REITs, NOI is used by investors as a basis to evaluate REITs.

We calculate NOI as revenue less property operating expenses, each of which are presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.operations and/or net income (loss), which is presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, adjusted for sales and marketing expenses, general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization expenses, transaction, acquisition, integration and other related expenses, impairment losses, interest expense, unrealized (gain) loss on marketable equity securities, loss on early extinguishment of debt, income tax expense and other special items as appropriate. Amortization of deferred leasing costs is presented in depreciation and amortization expenses, which is excluded from NOI. MarketingSales and advertising costsmarketing expenses are not property-specific, rather these costsexpenses support our entire portfolio. As a result, we have excluded these sales and marketing and advertising costsexpenses from our NOI calculation, consistent with the treatment of general and administrative costs,expenses, which also support our entire portfolio. However,Because the calculation of NOI excludes various expenses, the utility of NOI as a measure of our performance is limited. Other REITs may not calculate NOI in the same manner. Accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to others. Therefore, NOI should be considered only as a supplement to revenue and to net income (loss) presented in accordance with GAAP as a measure of our performance. NOI should not be used as a measure of our liquidity or as indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions. NOI also should not be used as a supplement to or substitute for cash flow from operating activities computed in accordance with GAAP.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Short-term Liquidity

Our short-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of operating, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses, dividend payments and recurring capital expenditures for our data center properties. We generally expect to meet these requirements from our cash flow from operations, cash balances and availability under our $3.0$1.7 Billion Revolving Credit Facility. For the three months ended March 31, 2018,2019, our cash provided by operating activities was $44.2$43.9 million. This was in excess ofless than our dividend payment for the first quarterthree months of 20182019 of $41.0$50.4 million. We expect our cash provided by operating cash flow to continueactivities to trend in excess of our dividend payment,payments for the year.

Available capacity under the $3.0 Billion Credit Facility as firstof March 31, 2019 was $1,276.2 million, all of which is related to the $1.7 Billion Revolving Credit Facility. Total liquidity as of March 31, 2019 was approximately $1,402.2 million, which included availability of $1,276.2 million under the $3.0 Billion Credit Facility, and cash and cash equivalents of $126.0 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we had borrowings of $415.8 million under the $1.7 Billion Revolving Credit Facility.

During the fourth quarter operations have larger one-time payments,of 2018, the Board authorized us to enter into sales agreements pursuant to which we may issue and sell from time to time shares of our common stock having an aggregate sales price of up to $750.0 million (the "New 2018 ATM Stock Offering Program"). The New 2018 ATM Stock Offering Program replaced the 2018 ATM Stock Offering Program. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we expectsold approximately 2.0 million shares of our annual cash flow run ratecommon stock under our ATM stock offering programs, generating net proceeds of approximately $104.1 million after giving effect to increase from our recent investments in data centers.sales agent commissions of $1.3 million. As of March 31, 2019, there was $644.6 million under the New 2018 ATM Stock Offering Program available for future offerings.
Long-term Liquidity

Our long-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of our capital expenditures for the development and acquisition of our data centers. For the three months ended March 31, 2018,2019, our cash capital expenditures were $145.2$301.9 million. Our capital expenditures are primarily discretionary, excluding leases under contract, and have been utilized to expand our existing data center properties, acquire or construct new facilities, or both. We intend to continue to pursue additional growth opportunities and are prepared to commit additional resources to support this growth. We expect our total estimated capital expenditures excluding the purchase of Zenium, for 20182019 to be between $850$900.0 million and $900 million.$1.0 billion. We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements, withincluding potential acquisitions, from cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from our operations, issuances of debt and equity securities, and borrowings under our $1.7 Billion Revolving Credit Facility.


Available capacityWe regularly monitor commodity and labor pricing trends related to our data center development capital expenditures, where a large proportion of our current development project costs are under the $3.0 Billion Credit Facility as of March 31, 2018, was $2.0 billion, which included $1.7 billion under the Revolving Credit Facilityfirm price commitments. Accordingly, while we have experienced limited price increases in certain selective materials due to recent international trade negotiations and $300.0 million in unused commitmentsactions, we currently do not anticipate any material adverse effect on the term loan portion. Total liquidity as of March 31, 2018 was approximately $2.2 billion, which included availability of $2.0 billion under the $3.0 Billion Credit Facility and cash and cash equivalents of $228.7 million.our overall development costs.

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company sold approximately 2.8 million shares of its common stock under the ATM stock offering program, generating net proceeds of approximately $142.9 million after giving effect to sales agent commissions of $1.8 million. As of March 31, 2018,2019, all of our outstanding debt matures between 2023 and 2027, with a weighted average of 5.1 years to maturity. We expect to refinance these debts at or before their maturities, or retire the $500.0 million authorized underdebt from the ATM stock offering program, theresources described in this section. Our interest rate mix was approximately $346.0 million in remaining capacity. 41% fixed and 59% floating.

In addition subsequent to March 31, 2018, approximately 180,000 shares at an average pricethe sources of $51.08 settled by April 3, 2018.capital described herein, we have access to other potential sources of capital including mortgage financing, property dispositions and sales of joint venture interests in our properties.

Cash Flows
Comparison of Three Months Ended March 31, 20182019 and March 31, 20172018

Cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 20182019 was $44.2$43.9 million compared to $55.2$44.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017,2018, a decrease of $11.0$0.3 million. The decrease of $0.3 million was primarily driven by the timing ofdue to an increase in interest payments onrelated to debt of $4.5 million, over the senior notes of $30.9 millioncorresponding prior year period, and to a lesser extent, increases in payments of annual property taxes and payment of $2.9 million with the remaining increase due to payroll, our year-end bonus.bonus and other accruals, partially offset by an increase of $12.9 million in operating income as explained above.

Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 20182019 was $145.2$301.9 million compared to $674.8$145.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017.2018. Substantially all of our investing activity for both periods was related to our development and acquisition activities. Our capital expenditures for 2019 related primarily to the continued development in key markets, primarily in Amsterdam, Austin, Dallas, Frankfurt, London, the New York Metro area, Northern Virginia, Phoenix and Raleigh-Durham. Acquisitions included land purchases of $40.1 million in Santa Clara and San Antonio. Our capital expenditures for 2018 included the continued development in key markets, primarily Chicago, Dallas, Northern Virginia Dallas and Somerset. Capital expenditures for 2017 included the purchase of the Sentinel Properties for $492.3 million and $182.5 million related primarily to development projects underway in Northern Virginia, Phoenix, Dallas, Chicago, San Antonio and Cincinnati.
 
Cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 20182019 was $177.8$321.0 million compared to $626.0$177.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017.2018. During the three months ended March 31, 2018,2019, cash provided by financing activities was due to net proceeds from the issuance of common stock of $142.9$105.0 million, $68.1$37.9 million less than the priorcorresponding period in 2017,2018, and net proceeds from borrowings on our revolving credit facility of $275.7 million, a $192.8 million increase in proceeds from debt compared to net borrowings on the issuance of debt of $82.9 million, $373.2 million less thanterm loan for the prior period in 2017.three months ended March 31, 2018. Other cash used in financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 20182019 primarily related to dividends paid to stockholders of $41.0$50.4 million compared to $32.4$41.0 million in 2017. Our board of directors increased our dividend rate from $0.38 per share2018 due to $0.42 per share effectivethe increase in the first quarternumber of 2017 and increased our dividend to $0.46 per share effective in the first quarter of 2018.common shares outstanding.
Distribution Policy
CyrusOne Inc. isIn order to comply with the REIT requirements of the Code, we are required to distribute 90% of its taxable income (determined without regard to the dividend paid deduction and excluding any net capital gains) on an annual basis in order to continue to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, we intend to make but are not contractually bound to make, regular quarterly distributions to our common stockholders from cash flow from our operating partnership’s operating activities. In addition, the Operating Partnership Agreement requires ratable distributions to partners, and therefore, similar distributions will be made to all holdersshareholders of operating partnership units. All such distributions are at the discretionleast 90% of our parent company’s board of directors. We consider market factors andtaxable income. Distributions made by us are determined by our operating partnership’s performance in addition to REIT requirements in determining distribution levels. While we plan to continue to make quarterly distributions, no assurances can be made as to the frequency or amounts of any future distributions. The payment of common share distributions is dependent upon our financial condition, operating results and REIT distribution requirements, and may be adjusted at the discretion of the board of directors in its sole discretion. If we have underestimated our cash available for distribution, we may need to increase our borrowings in order to fund our intended distributions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, our $3.0 Billion Credit Facility and indentures restrict CyrusOne LP from making distributions to holders of our operating partnership units, or redeeming or otherwise repurchasing shares of our operating partnership units, after the occurrence and during the year.continuance of an event of default, except in limited circumstances including as necessary to enable CyrusOne Inc. to maintain its qualification as a REIT and to minimize the payment of income taxes.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
During the normal course of business, we make certain indemnities, commitments and guarantees under which we may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions. These include (i) intellectual property indemnities to customers in connection with the use, sale and/or license of products and services, (ii) indemnities to vendors and service providers pertaining to claims based on our negligence or willful misconduct and (iii) indemnities involving the representations and warranties in certain contracts. In addition, we have made contractual commitments to several employees providing for payments upon the occurrence of certain prescribed events. The majority of these indemnities, commitments and guarantees do not provide for any limitation on the maximum potential for future payments that we could be obligated to make.

Also as a part of our normal course of business we procure certain data center equipment (generally generators and power distribution units) and utility power under purchase commitments, where we would be required to purchase certain minimum volumes. In general, we expect to manage these contracts such that the committed volume levels are below our current requirements and at prices that are below current spot market prices. However, if our requirements were to decrease or the spot market prices were to increase, we could be obligated to complete the remaining minimum purchase commitments, holding the excess equipment for future development or disposing at then current prices. As of March 31, 2018,2019, our aggregate commitments under these contracts is approximately $45 million.
We lease data center facilities and equipment from third parties. Operating lease expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $2.2 million. Future lease payments remaining under these operating leases as of March 31, 2018 is approximately $16.7$51.0 million.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest Rate Risk
We have exposure to interest rate risk, arising from variable-rate borrowings under our new senior unsecured credit agreement$3.0 Billion Credit Facility and our fixed-rate long-term debt.
Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs. To achieve the financing objectives, we borrow primarily at fixed rates or variable rates with what we believe are the lowest margins available. With regard to variable rate financing, we manage interest rate cash flow risk by continually identifying and monitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact expected future cash flows.
As of March 31, 2018,2019, we had approximately $1.2 billion of contractually outstanding consolidated debt at a weighted average fixed interest rate of approximately 5.16% and $1.0 billion$1,715.8 million of amounts outstanding under credit facilities with a weighted average variable interest rate of monthly LIBOR plus 1.49%1.25%. Monthly LIBOR as of March 31, 2019 was 2.50%.
Interest rate fluctuations will generally not affect our future earnings or cash flows on our fixed rate debt unless such instruments are traded or are otherwise terminated prior to maturity. However, interest rate changes will affect the fair value of our fixed rate instruments.
Conversely, movements in interest rates on variable rate debt would change our future earnings and cash flows, but not significantly affect the fair value of those instruments. We are exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of our variable rate debt we incur on our senior unsecured credit agreement and our consolidated cash investments. As of March 31, 2019, our floating rate debt outstanding was $1,715.8 million. We quantify our exposure to interest rate risk based on how changes in interest rates affect our net income. We consider changes in the 30-day LIBOR rate to be most indicative of our interest rate exposure as it is a function of the base rate for our credit facilities. We consider increases of 0.5% to 2.0% in the 30-day LIBOR rate to be reflective of reasonable changes we may experience in the current interest rate environment. The table below reflects the annual consolidated effect of an increase in the 30-day LIBOR to our net income related to our significant variable interest rate exposures as of March 31, 20182019 (amounts in millions, where positive amounts reflect an increase in net income and bracketed amounts reflect a decrease in net income): 
 2.0%1.5%1.0%0.5%
Variable rate credit facilities expense$(20.0)$(15.0)$(10.0)$(5.0)
 2.0% 1.5% 1.0% 0.5%
Variable rate credit facilities expense$(34.3) $(25.7) $(17.2) $(8.6)

Floating rate interest income is not significant as of March 31, 2019.

There is no assurance that we would realize such income or expense as such changes in interest rates could alter our asset or liability positions or strategies in response to such changes. Also, where variable rate debt is used to finance development projects, the cost of the development is also impacted. If these costs exceed budgeted interest reserves, we may be required to fund the excess out of other capital sources. The table above reflects interest expense prior to any adjustments for capitalized interest related to developments.
Refer to Item 7A. "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" of the Company’sCompany's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20172018 for a description of the Company’sCompany's market risks. There were no material changes for the period ended March 31, 2018.2019.

Foreign Currency Risk

As a result of the Zenium acquisition, we added foreign operations in the United Kingdom and Germany that, along with operations in Singapore, expose us to risk from the effects of exchange rate movements of foreign currencies, which may affect future costs and cash flows. As of March 31, 2018,2019, our exposure to foreign currency is not significant. For the three months ended March 31, 20182019, our foreign currency translation adjustment included within stockholders’ equity was $0.1$0.6 million.

Upon the expected closingAs a result of the Zenium Acquisition,acquisition, our exposure to foreign currency is expected to increase, primarily related to British pound sterling and Eurodollar. While the purchase price for Zenium is denominated in U.S. dollars, weEuro. We expect that future investments and expenditures relating to the Zenium portfolio and itsinternational operations will be incurred in their functional currency.currencies. One of the ways we may mitigate future investment and operational foreign currency exposure could be by borrowing under our $3.0 Billion Credit Facility in the particular foreign currency, subject to availability and applicable borrowing conditions. However, we would expect tomay incur foreign currency transaction gains and losses, which would impact our consolidated net income,

and translation of financial statements from the foreign functional currency to U.S. dollars, which would be included in other comprehensive income or loss(loss) and stockholders’stockholders' equity. Historically,
Commodity Price Risk
Certain of our operating costs are subject to price fluctuations caused by the volatility of the underlying commodity prices, including electricity used in our data center operations, and building materials, such as steel and copper, used in the construction of our data centers. In addition, the lead time to purchase certain equipment for our data centers is substantial which could result in increased costs for these construction projects. In addition, we have not entered into foreign currency hedges, but ifseveral contracts to purchase electricity. As of March 31, 2019, these contracts represent less than our international investments increase, we may consider entering into foreign currency hedges in the future.

forecasted usage.


ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), we have evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of March 31, 2018.2019. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2018,2019, the Company’sCompany's disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and is accumulated and communicated to the Company’sCompany's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 20182019 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.



PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We do not believe any currently outstanding matters would have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, liquidity and cash flows.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes to the risk factors included in the section entitled “Risk Factors”"Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017,2018, filed with the SEC on February 22, 2018,2019, which is accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov, except as noted below..

We may incur significant costs complying with other regulations.

Our properties are subject to various federal, state and local regulations, such as state and local fire and life safety regulations.
