PENNSYLVANIA REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2019March 31, 2020

 

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Nature of Operations

 

Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust (“PREIT” or the “Company”) prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the included disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Our unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in PREIT’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.2019. In our opinion, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our consolidated financial position, the consolidated results of our operations, consolidated statements of other comprehensive income (loss), consolidated statements of equity and our consolidated statements of cash flows are included. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

 

PREIT, a Pennsylvania business trust founded in 1960 and one of the first equity real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) in the United States, has a primary investment focus on retail shopping malls located in the eastern half of the United States, primarily in the Mid-Atlantic region. OurAs of March 31, 2020, our portfolio currently consists of a total of 2726 properties operating in nine9 states, including 21 shopping malls, four4 other retail properties and two1 development or redevelopment properties. We have one property under redevelopment classified as “retail” (redevelopment ofproperty. The Gallery at Market East into Fashion District Philadelphia (“Fashion District Philadelphia”)). One other property in our portfolio that is classified as under development; however, we dodevelopment does not currently have any activity occurring at this property. We also have one undeveloped land parcel located in Gainesville, Florida, a portion of which was sold in March 2019 and the remaining portion of which was classified as held for sale as of June 30, 2019.occurring.

 

We hold our interest in our portfolio of properties through our operating partnership, PREIT Associates, L.P. (“PREIT Associates” or the “Operating Partnership”). We are the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and, as of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, we held a 97.5% controlling interest in the Operating Partnership (after the redemption of 6,250,000 OP Units (as defined below) during the first quarter of 2019, which is discussed in more detail in Note 5 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements)5), and consolidated it for reporting purposes. The presentation of consolidated financial statements does not itself imply that the assets of any consolidated entity (including any special-purpose entity formed for a particular project) are available to pay the liabilities of any other consolidated entity, or that the liabilities of any consolidated entity (including any special-purpose entity formed for a particular project) are obligations of any other consolidated entity.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the partnership agreement of the Operating Partnership, each of the limited partners has the right to redeem such partner’s units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”) for cash or, at our election, we may acquire such OP Units in exchange for our common shares on a one-for-one1-for-one basis, in some cases beginning one year following the respective issue dates of the OP Units and in other cases immediately. If all of the outstanding OP Units held by limited partners had been redeemed for cash as of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the total amount that would have been distributed would have been $13.1$1.8 million, which is calculated using our June 28, 2019 (which was the last trading day in the second quarter of 2019)March 31, 2020 closing price on the New York Stock Exchange of $6.50$0.91 per share multiplied by the number of outstanding OP Units held by limited partners, which was 2,022,635 as of June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020.

 

We provide management, leasing and real estate development services through two2 of our subsidiaries: PREIT Services, LLC (“PREIT Services”), which generally develops and manages properties that we consolidate for financial reporting purposes, and PREIT-RUBIN, Inc. (“PRI”), which generally develops and manages properties that we do not consolidate for financial reporting purposes, including properties owned by partnerships in which we own an interest and properties that are owned by third parties in which we do not have an interest. PREIT Services and PRI are consolidated. PRI is a taxable REIT subsidiary, as defined by federal tax laws, which means that it is able to offer an expanded menu of services to tenants without jeopardizing our continuing qualification as a REIT under federal tax law.

 

We evaluate operating results and allocate resources on a property-by-property basis, and do not distinguish or evaluate our consolidated operations on a geographic basis. Due to the nature of our operating properties, which involve retail shopping, we have concluded that our individual properties have similar economic characteristics and meet all other aggregation criteria. Accordingly, we have aggregated our individual properties into one1 reportable segment. In addition, no single tenant accounts for 10% or more of consolidated revenue, and none of our properties are located outside the United States.

 

8COVID-19 Related Risks and Uncertainties

The 2020 global outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has adversely impacted, and will likely continue to impact, our business, financial condition, liquidity and operating results, as well as our tenants’ businesses. The continued spread of COVID-19 has also led to unprecedented global economic disruption and volatility in financial markets. We anticipate that our future business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations, including our results for 2020 and potentially thereafter, will be materially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. It remains highly uncertain how long the global pandemic, economic challenges and restrictions on day-to-day life will last. Given the unprecedented and rapidly evolving developments, we cannot reasonably predict or estimate its ultimate impact on us or our tenants, or on our ability or the ability of our tenants to resume more normal operations.

7


Table of Contents

COVID-19 impacted our properties and caused the closures of all our properties with the first closure occurring on March 12, 2020. The first property reopening occurred in late April 2020 while others remain closed until individual states’ stay at home orders are lifted. Since most of the closures occurred in the second half of March 2020, the impact of the closures on our first quarter 2020 financial results was not significant.

Ultimately, the significance of COVID-19 on our business remains highly uncertain and will depend on, among other things, the extent and duration of the pandemic, the severity of the disease and the number of people infected with the virus, the effects on the economy of the pandemic and of the measures taken by governmental authorities and other third parties restricting daily activities and the length of time that such measures remain in place, and implementation of governmental programs to assist businesses and consumers impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Going Concern Considerations

Under the accounting guidance related to the presentation of financial statements, when preparing financial statements for each annual and interim reporting period, management has the responsibility to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. As a result of the considerations articulated below, we believe there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

In applying the accounting guidance, management considered our current financial condition and liquidity sources, including current funds available, forecasted future cash flows and our conditional and unconditional obligations due over the next twelve months. Management specifically considered the following: (i) our senior unsecured facility, which includes a revolving facility maturing in 2022 with a balance of $289.0 million as of March 31, 2020 and term loans maturing in 2023 with a balance of $550.0 million as of March 31, 2020; (ii) our mortgage loans with varying maturities through 2025 with a principal balance of $896.5 million as of March 31, 2020; (iii) the financial covenant compliance requirements of our credit agreements; and (iv) recurring costs of operating our business.

On March 30, 2020, the Company amended its 2014 7-Year Term Loan and 2018 Term Loan Facility to provide certain debt covenant relief through September 30, 2020. The Company anticipates not meeting certain financial covenants applicable under the credit agreements after September 30, 2020. The Company continues to work with the lender group to obtain a longer term financing solution prior to the expiration of the initial modification. However, further deterioration in our financial results due to COVID-19 could affect our covenant compliance prior to September 30, 2020. In addition, the Company plans to complete the sale-leaseback of certain properties, sell certain real estate assets and continue to control certain operational costs. Due to the inherent risks, unknown results and significant uncertainties associated with each of these matters and the direct correlation between these matters and our ability to satisfy our financial obligations that may arise over the applicable twelve month period, we are unable to conclude that it is probable that we will be able to meet our obligations arising within twelve months of the date of issuance of these financial statements under the parameters set forth in this accounting guidance.

As a result, management evaluated whether this was mitigated by our approved plans and expectations for the applicable period under the second step of this accounting standard.

Our ability to satisfy obligations under our senior unsecured credit facility and mortgage loans, maintain compliance with our debt covenants and fund recurring costs of operations depends primarily on management’s ability to obtain relief from the lender group in regards to debt covenants, complete the sale-leaseback of certain properties, complete the sale of certain real estate assets which will provide cash from those sales, and continue to control operational costs. While controlling operational costs are within management’s control to some extent, executing the sale-leaseback transactions, selling real estate assets, and obtaining relief from the lender group through modified debt covenant requirements involve performance by third parties and therefore cannot be considered probable of occurring.

 

Fair Value

 

Fair value accounting applies to reported balances that are required or permitted to be measured at fair value under existing accounting pronouncements. Fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, these accounting requirements establish 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’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).

 

8


Table of Contents

Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or 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 might 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, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, and are typically based on an entity’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 entire 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. We utilize the fair value hierarchy in our accounting for derivatives (Level 2) and financial instruments (Level 2) and in our reviews for impairment of real estate assets (Level 3) and goodwill (Level 3).

 

Impairment of Assets

Real estate investments and related intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the property might not be recoverable, which is referred to as a “triggering event.” The COVID-19 impact on the economy and market conditions, together with the resulting closures of our properties, was deemed to be a triggering event as of March 31, 2020 which led to an impairment review. In connection with our review of our long-lived assets for impairment, we utilize qualitative and quantitative factors in order to estimate fair value. The significant qualitative factors that we use include age and condition of the property, market conditions in the property’s trade area, competition with other shopping centers within the property’s trade area and the creditworthiness and performance of the property’s tenants. The significant quantitative factors that we use include historical and forecasted financial and operating information relating to the property, such as net operating income, occupancy statistics, vacancy projections and tenants’ sales levels.

If there is a triggering event in relation to a property to be held and used, we will estimate the aggregate future cash flows, net of estimated capital expenditures, to be generated by the property, undiscounted and without interest charges. In addition, this estimate may consider a probability weighted cash flow estimation approach when alternative courses of action to recover the carrying amount of a long-lived asset are under consideration or when a range of possible values is estimated.

The determination of undiscounted cash flows requires significant estimates by our management, including the expected course of action at the balance sheet date that would lead to such cash flows. Subsequent changes in estimated undiscounted cash flows arising from changes in the anticipated action to be taken with respect to the property could affect the determination of whether an impairment exists, and the effects of such changes could materially affect our net income. If the estimated undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the property, the carrying value is written down to its fair value.

Assessment of our ability to recover certain lease related costs must be made when we have a reason to believe that a tenant might not be able to perform under the terms of the lease as originally expected. This requires us to make estimates as to the recoverability of such costs.

An other-than-temporary impairment of an investment in an unconsolidated joint venture is recognized when the carrying value of the investment is not considered recoverable based on evaluation of the severity and duration of the decline in value. To the extent impairment has occurred, the excess carrying value of the asset over its estimated fair value is recorded as a reduction to income. We concluded that there was no impairment as of March 31, 2020.

New Accounting Developments

Lease accounting related

 

Effective January 1, 2019,2020, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASC 842”) and related guidance using the optional transition method and elected to apply the provisions of the standard as of the adoption date rather than the earliest date presented. Prior period amounts were not restated. We implemented the standard using the following practical expedients:

We have elected the package of practical expedients that allows us to not reassess (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and (iii) initial direct costs for any existing leases.

For leases under which we are the lessor, we also have elected to not separate non-lease components such as common area maintenance (“CAM”) and real estate reimbursements from the associated lease component (minimum rent). Instead, we account for the lease and non-lease components as a single component because such non-lease components would otherwise be accounted for under the new revenue guidance (ASC 606) and both (1) the timing and pattern of transfer are the same for the nonlease components and associated lease component, and (2) the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. Utility reimbursements are presented separately and not in the single component as the pattern of transfer is not aligned with the use of the property and therefore the criteria for use of the practical expedient are not met.

The adoption of this standard had the following effects on our financial statements as of June 30, 2019 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019:

As of January 1, 2019, for leases under which the Company is a lessee, we recorded a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset of $24.6 million and corresponding lease liability for all leases previously accounted for as operating leases under ASC 840. The Company also derecognized an unfavorable ground lease liability of $5.5 million and reduced the corresponding ROU asset by the same amount. As of June 30, 2019, the ROU asset was $17.7 million and is included in deferred costs and other assets, net and the lease liability was $23.7 million and is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.

Effective January 1, 2019, we changed our fixed CAM revenue recognition to be recognized prospectively on a straight-line basis. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, $0.7 million and $1.3 million, respectively, of such revenues were recognized and are included within lease revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations; previously, such amounts were recognized as billed in accordance with the terms of the respective leases.

We review the collectability of both billed and unbilled lease revenues each reporting period, taking into consideration the tenant’s payment history, credit profile and other factors, including its operating performance. For any tenant receivable balances deemed to be uncollectible, under ASC 842 we record an offset for credit losses directly to Lease revenue in the consolidated statement of operations. Previously, under ASC 840, uncollectible tenants’ receivables were reported in Other property operating expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.

Table of Contents

For leases under which the Company is a lessor, certain internal leasing and legal costs that were previously capitalized under ASC 840 are now recorded as period costs under ASC 842. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, we capitalized $1.5 million and $2.7 million of internal leasing and legal salaries and benefits, respectively. No such costs were capitalized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. We will continue to amortize previously capitalized initial direct costs over the remaining terms of the associated leases.

Other accounting

In October 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2018-16, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Inclusion of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) Overnight Index Swap (OIS) as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting. This ASU adds the OIS rate based on SOFR as a U.S. benchmark interest rate to facilitate the LIBOR to SOFR transition and provide sufficient lead time for entities to prepare for changes to interest rate hedging strategies for both risk management and hedge accounting purposes. Because we adopted ASU 2017-12, this guidance became effective January 1, 2019. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (“ASC 326”), and subsequently issued amendments to the initial and transitional guidance within ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04 and ASU 2019-05 between November 2018 and May 2019.2019-05. ASU 2016-13 introduced new guidance for an approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, and will affect our accounting for trade receivables and notes receivable. We will adopt this new standard on January 1, 2020. We are currently evaluating the impact that theThe adoption of the new standard willthis guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

Immaterial error correction

In April 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued a Staff Question-and-Answer (“Q&A”) to clarify whether lease concessions related to the effects of COVID-19 require the application of the lease modification guidance under ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASC 842”). Under ASC 842, we would have to determine, on a lease-by-lease basis, if a lease concession was the result of a new arrangement reached with the tenant or an enforceable right and obligation within the existing lease. The Consolidated Statements of Operations and the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive IncomeQ&A allows for the threebypass of a lease-by-lease analysis and six months ended June 30, 2018 includefor us to elect to either apply the lease modification accounting framework or not, to all of the lease concessions we make with similar characteristics and circumstances. We are continuing to assess the impact of correctingthis Q&A guidance in light of our ongoing negotiations with tenants.

Dividends Declared

On May 19, 2020, we announced that our Board of Trustees declared a computational error by increasing the net loss (and comprehensive loss) attributablequarterly cash dividend of $0.02 per common share payable on June 15, 2020 to noncontrolling interest by $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and by $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. The adjustments also decreased the amount of loss (and comprehensive loss) attributable to PREIT and PREIT common shareholders by the same amount. The adjustmentsof record on June 1, 2020. Simultaneously, our Board of Trustees also decreased the amountdeclared quarterly cash dividends of basic and diluted loss$0.4609375 per share by $0.01 for the three months endedon our 7.375% Series B Cumulative Redeemable PerpetualPreferred Shares, $0.450000 per share on our 7.20% Series C Preferred Shares, and $0.4296875 per share on our 6.875% Series D Preferred Shares. These dividends are also payable on June 30, 2018 and by $0.02 for the six months ended15, 2020 to holders of record on June 30. 2018.1, 2020.

 

These corrections had no impact on the previously reported amounts of net income (loss), total equity, and consolidated cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities.

We evaluated these corrections and determined, based on quantitative and qualitative factors, that the changes were not material to the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole for any previously filed consolidated financial statements.

The definition of initial direct costs under ASC 842 includes only those incremental costs of a lease that would not have been incurred if the lease had not been obtained. As discussed above, certain internal leasing and legal costs that were previously capitalized under ASC 840 are now recorded as period costs under ASC 842. Commissions paid for successful leasing transactions will continue to be capitalized.

Dispositions

Dispositions

In November 2019, we entered into an agreement to sell 14 tenant occupied parcels across five properties — Magnolia Mall, Capital City Mall, Woodland Mall, Jacksonville Mall and Valley Mall — for total consideration of $29.9 million. As of December 31, 2019, we completed the dispositions on three outparcels at Capital City Mall and Magnolia Mall for total consideration of $5.2 million. In connection with these sales, we recorded a gain of $2.7 million. In January 2020, the sale of the outparcel at Woodland Mall for a total consideration of $5.1 million was completed and in March 2020, the sale of two outparcels at Magnolia Mall for a total consideration of $2.9 million was completed with a resulting gain on sale of $1.9 million which was recorded in March 2020.

 

In March 2019, we entered into an agreement of sale with a buyer to sell an undeveloped land parcel located in Gainesville, Florida for total consideration of $15.0 million and the sale transaction was split into twofour parcels. The first parcel was sold in March 2019 for $5.0 million. The transaction with respect toAs a result of executing the remaining parcel is expected to close in the second halfagreement of 2019. In connection with these transactions,sale, we recorded losses on impairment of assets of $1.5 million. The remaining landmillion in the first quarter of 2019. Subsequently, we closed on the sale of two parcels in November 2019 and the sale of the final parcel was classified as heldclosed in December 2019 for sale in our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2019.

In April 2019, we sold an undeveloped land parcel located in New Garden Township, Pennsylvania, for totalaggregate consideration of $11.0 million, consisting of $8.25 million in cash and $2.75 million of preferred stock. We ascribed no value for accounting purposes to the preferred shares as they are not tradeable, cannot be transferred or sold and have no redemption feature. Up to $1.25 million of the cash consideration received is subject to claw-back if the buyer does not receive entitlements for a stipulated number of housing units, which has been recorded as a liability in our consolidated balance sheet. In connection with this sale, we recorded a gain of $0.2$10.0 million.

 

In April 2019, we sold a Whole Foods store located on a parcel adjacent to Exton Square Mall for total consideration of $22.1 million. In connection with this sale, we recorded a gain of $1.3 million.

Excess investment represents the unamortized difference between our investment and our share of the equity in the underlying net investment in the unconsolidated partnerships. The excess investment is amortized over the life of the properties, and the amortization is included in “Equity in income of partnerships.”

 

We record distributions from our equity investments using the nature of the distribution approach.

Dispositions

 

In March 2019, a partnership in which we hold a 25% interest sold an undeveloped land parcel adjacent to Gloucester Premium Outlets for $3.8 million. The partnership recorded a gain on sale of $2.3 million, of which our share was $0.6 million, which is recorded in gain on salesales of real estate by equity method investee in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.

In February 2018, a partnership in which we hold a 50% ownership share sold its office condominium interest in 907 Market Street in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for $41.8 million. The partnership recorded a gain on sale of $5.5 million, of which our share was $2.8 million. The partnership distributed to us proceeds of $19.7 million in connection with this transaction in February 2018.

 

Term Loan

 

In January 2018, our Fashion District Philadelphia redevelopment project joint venture entity entered into a $250.0 million term loan (the “FDP Term Loan”). We and our partner in the project, The Macerich Company (“Macerich”), each own a 50% partnership interest in Fashion District Philadelphia. The FDP Term Loan matures in January 2023, and bears interest at a variable rate of LIBOR plus 2.00%. PREIT and Macerich secured the FDP Term Loan by pledging their respective equity interests in the entities that own Fashion District Philadelphia. The entire $250.0 million available under the FDP Term Loan was drawn during the first quarter of 2018, and we received an aggregate $123.0 million as a distribution of our share of the draws in 2018. In July 2019, the FDP Term Loan was modified to increase the total potential borrowings from $250.0 million to $350.0 million. $26.0A total of $51.0 million was drawn in Julyduring the third quarter of 2019 and we received an aggregate $12.5distributions of $25.0 million as a distribution of our share of the draw in July 2019.draws.

4. FINANCING ACTIVITY

 

Credit Agreements

 

As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, we have entered into two2 credit agreements (collectively, as amended, the “Credit Agreements”): (1) the 2018 Credit Agreement, which, as described in more detail below, includes (a) the $400$375 million 2018 Revolving Facility, and (b) the $300 million 2018 Term Loan Facility, and (2) the $250 million 2014 7-Year Term Loan. The 2018 Term Loan Facility and the 2014 7-Year Term Loan are collectively referred to as the “Term Loans.” As discussed further below and in Note 1 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements, on March 30, 2020, we entered into amendments of our Credit Agreements. Among other things, the amendments reduced the aggregate Revolving Commitment under the 2018 Revolving Facility by $25 million to $375 million.

 

As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, we had borrowed the full $550.0 million available under the Term Loans in the aggregate, and $182.0$289.0 million was borrowed under the 2018 Revolving Facility. The carrying value of the Term Loans on our consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2018March 31, 2020 is net of $2.4$1.8 million of unamortized debt issuance costs. Following recent property sales, theThe net operating income (“NOI”) from our remaining unencumbered properties is at a level such that pursuant towithin the Unencumbered Debt Yield covenant (as described below), under the Credit Agreements, the maximum unsecured amount that was available forto us to borrow under the 2018 Revolving Facility as of June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 was $123.6 million.

Table$65.3 million, which is not reduced by any usage of Contentsthe borrowing capacity to fulfill our unrestricted cash liquidity requirement of $25 million as described further below.

 

Amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreements, either under the 2018 Revolving Facility or the Term Loans, which may be either LIBOR Loans or Base Rate Loans, bear interest at the rate specified below per annum, depending on our leverage, unless and until we receive an investment grade credit rating and provide notice to the Administrative Agent, as defined therein (the “Rating Date”), after which alternative rates would apply, as described in the Credit Agreements. In determining our leverage (the ratio of Total Liabilities to Gross Asset Value), the capitalization rate used to calculate Gross Asset Value is (a) 6.50% for each property having an average sales per square foot of more than $500 for the most recent period of 12 consecutive months, and (b) 7.50% for any other property. The 2018 Revolving Facility is subject to a facility fee, which depends on leverage and was 0.30%0.35% as of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, which is recorded in interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

Table of default on the loan from the lender, dated December 14, 2018. The loan is subject to a cash sweep arrangement as a result of an anchor tenant trigger event. We have entered into an agreement with the lender to jointly market the property for sale for a stipulated period of time. If the property is not sold, we expect to convey the property to the lender by deed in lieu of foreclosure; however, we make no assurances that such a transaction will be completed.Contents

 

In April 2019, we received a notice from the servicer of the Cumberland Mall mortgage of a cash sweep event due to the failure of an anchor tenant to renew for a full term.

We recorded net costs of approximately $0.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and subsequently received recoveries of $0.6 million in April 2020.

 

7. DERIVATIVES

 

In the normal course of business, we are exposed to financial market risks, including interest rate risk on our interest bearing liabilities. We attempt to limit these risks by following established risk management policies, procedures and strategies, including the use of financial instruments such as derivatives. We do not use financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

 

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

 

For derivatives that have been designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in “Accumulated other comprehensive income” and subsequently reclassified into “Interest expense, net” in the same periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, all of our outstanding derivatives are designated as cash flow hedges. We recognize all derivatives at fair value as either assets or liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

 

During the next 12 months, we estimate that less than $0.1$13.0 million will be reclassified as a decrease to interest expense in connection with derivatives. The recognition of these amounts, however, could be accelerated in the event that we repay amounts outstanding on the debt instruments and do not replace them with new borrowings.borrowings or that the debt becomes due under the terms of the agreements.

 

Interest Rate Swaps

 

As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, we had interest rate swap agreements outstanding with a weighted average base interest rate of 1.85% on a notional amount of $796.5$795.2 million, maturing on various dates through May 2023, and a forward starting interest rate swap agreementsagreement with a weighted average interest rate of 2.75% on a notional amount of $100.0 million, with an effective date in June 2020, and a maturity date in May 2023. We entered into these interest rate swap agreements in order to hedge the interest payments associated with our issuances of variable interest rate long term debt. The interest rate swap agreements are net settled monthly.

 

The following table summarizes the terms and estimated fair values of our interest rate swap derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk at June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 20182019 based on the year they mature. The notional values provide an indication of the extent of our involvement in these instruments, but do not represent exposure to credit, interest rate or market risks. In the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, the carrying amount of derivative assets is reflected in “Deferred costs and other assets, net” and the carrying amount of derivative liabilities is reflected in “Accrued expenses and other liabilities.”

Credit-Risk-Related Contingent Features

 

We have agreements with some of our derivative counterparties that contain a provision pursuant to which, if our entity that originated such derivative instruments defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then we could also be declared in default on our derivative obligations. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, we were not in default on any of our derivative obligations.

 

We have an agreement with a derivative counterparty that incorporates the loan covenant provisions of our loan agreement with a lender affiliated with the derivative counterparty. Failure to comply with the loan covenant provisions would result in our being in default on any derivative instrument obligations covered by the agreement.

 

As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the fair value of derivatives in a liability position, which excludes accrued interest but includes any adjustment for nonperformance risk related to these agreements, was $13.6$31.7 million. If we had breached any of the default provisions in these agreements as of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, we might have been required to settle our obligations under the agreements at their termination value (including accrued interest) of $14.0$32.9 million. We had not breached any of these provisions as of June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020.

8. LEASES

As discussed in Note 1, we adopted the new lease accounting standard effective January 1, 2019.

 

As Lessee

 

We have entered into ground leases for portions of the land at Springfield Town Center and Plymouth Meeting Mall. We have also entered into an office lease for our headquarters location, as well as vehicle, solar panel and equipment leases as a lessee. The initial terms of these agreements generally range from three to 40 years, with certain agreements containing extension options for up to an additional 60 years. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, we included only those renewal options we were reasonably certain of exercising. Upon lease execution, the Company measures a liability for the present value of future lease payments over the noncancellable period of the lease and any renewal option period we are reasonably certain of exercising. Certain agreements require that we pay a portion of reimbursable expenses such as CAM, utilities, insurance and real estate taxes. These payments are not included in the calculation of the lease liability and are presented as variable lease costs.

 

We applied judgments related to the determination of the discount rates used to calculate the lease liability upon adoption of ASC 842 at January 1, 2019. In order to calculate our incremental borrowing rate under ASC 842, we utilized judgments and estimates regarding our implied credit rating using market data and made other adjustments to determine an appropriate incremental borrowing rate as of January 1, 2019.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

The following analysis of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this report. The disclosures in this report are complementary to those made in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.2019. As disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on May 11, 2020, we are filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2020 (the “Quarterly Report”) on a delayed basis in reliance on the conditional filing relief provided under the SEC’s Order, as amended (Release No. 34-88465) under Section 36 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, due to circumstances related to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have disrupted our business and operations and substantial management time and effort have been diverted to address the health and safety needs of our employees, mall customers, tenants and properties, including a substantial amount of the accounting, finance and management team’s attention to analyze the impact on our liquidity and financial condition. We have also transitioned our business operations to a remote working model and furloughed or reduced the hours of many employees. Certain service providers on which we rely to assist in the preparation of the Quarterly Report have also experienced operational disruptions. These impacts delayed our ability to finalize our quarterly close process and prepare our financial statements and disclosures. As a result of these factors, we were unable to finalize and file the Quarterly Report on a timely basis to meet our original filing deadline of May 11, 2020, and are filing the Quarterly Report on May 21, 2020, which is within the additional 45 days allotted by the SEC’s Order.

We currently own interests in 2726 retail properties, of which 25 are operating properties and two areone is a development or redevelopment properties.property. The 25 operating properties include 21 shopping malls and four other retail properties, have a total of 20.020.3 million square feet and are located in nine states. We and partnerships in which we hold an interest own 15.615.9 million square feet at these properties (excluding space owned by anchors or third parties).

There are 1918 operating retail properties in our portfolio that we consolidate for financial reporting purposes. These consolidated properties have a total of 15.915.4 million square feet, of which we own 12.912.4 million square feet. The sixseven operating retail properties that are owned by unconsolidated partnerships with third parties have a total of 4.14.9 million square feet, of which 2.83.6 million square feet are owned by such partnerships. When we refer to “Same Store” properties, we are referring to properties that have been owned for the full periods presented and exclude properties acquired, disposed of, under redevelopment or designated as a non-core property during the periods presented.

WePhiladelphia. “Core Malls” also have one undeveloped land parcel located in Gainesville, Florida, a portion of which was sold in March 2019.excludes these properties as well as power centers and Gloucester Premium Outlets.

We have one property under redevelopment classified as “retail” (redevelopment of The Gallery at Market East into Fashion District Philadelphia). We have one other property in our portfolio that is classified as under development; however, we do not currently have any activity occurring at this property.

Fashion District Philadelphia opened on September 19, 2019. Fashion District Philadelphia is an aggregation of properties spanning three blocks in downtown Philadelphia that were formerly known as Gallery I, Gallery II and 907 Market Street. Joining Century 21 and Burlington in 2019 were multiple dining and entertainment venues including Market Eats, a multi offering food court, City Winery, AMC Theatres, and Round 1 Bowling & Amusement. In addition, Nike Factory Store, Ulta, and H & M have opened Philadelphia flagship stores at the property since its opening in September 2019.

Our primary business is owning and operating retail shopping malls, which we do primarily through our operating partnership, PREIT Associates, L.P. (“PREIT Associates” or the “Operating Partnership”). We provide management, leasing and real estate development services through PREIT Services, LLC (“PREIT Services”), which generally develops and manages properties that we consolidate for financial reporting purposes, and PREIT-RUBIN, Inc. (“PRI”), which generally develops and manages properties that we do not consolidate for financial reporting purposes, including properties owned by partnerships in which we own an interest and properties that are owned by third parties in which we do not have an interest. PRI is a taxable REIT subsidiary, as defined by federal tax laws, which means that it is able to offer additional services to tenants without jeopardizing our continuing qualification as a REIT under federal tax law.

Our revenue consists primarily of fixed rental income, additional rent in the form of fixed and variable expense reimbursements, and percentage rent (rent that is based on a percentage of our tenants’ sales or a percentage of sales in excess of thresholds that are specified in the leases) derived from our income producing properties. We also receive income from our real estate partnership investments and from the management and leasing services PRI provides.

We evaluate operating results and allocate resources on a property-by-property basis, and do not distinguish or evaluate our consolidated operations on a geographic basis. Due to the nature of our operating properties, which involve retail shopping, we have concluded that our individual properties have similar economic characteristics and meet all other aggregation criteria. Accordingly, we have aggregated our individual properties into one reportable segment. In addition, no single tenant accounts for 10% or more of our consolidated revenue, and none of our properties are located outside the United States.

 

Current Economic and Industry Conditions and Impact of COVID-19

 

Conditions in the economy have caused fluctuations and variations in business and consumer confidence, retail sales, and consumer spending on retail goods. Further, traditional mall tenants, including department store anchors and smaller format retail tenants, face significant challenges resulting from changing consumer expectations, the convenience of e-commerce shopping, competition from fast fashion retailers, the expansion of outlet centers, and declining mall traffic, among other factors. Additionally, in March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) a global pandemic. The global COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant disruptions to our industry and many other industries and has contributed to significant volatility in the financial markets. Our business and operations and those of many of our tenants have been materially and adversely impacted by the government-mandated travel restrictions, business closures and property shutdowns and the implementation of “social distancing” and certain other measures to prevent the further spread of the virus.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, during March 2020, we temporarily closed all of our enclosed shopping malls. Certain of our malls have since re-opened and are adhering to social distancing and sanitation and safety protocols. The pandemic’s full effect was not experienced in the first quarter of 2020, but is expected to have a more significant impact on our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations in the second quarter of 2020 and thereafter. During March and April, we received many requests from tenants relating to rent relief or deferral. As of the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, a substantial amount of contractual rent receivables for April and May remains outstanding and are under negotiation. We believe that our rent collections are probable, but expect that collections will continue to be below our tenants’ rent obligations as long as governmental orders require non-essential businesses to remain closed and residents to stay at home. We continue to record rental revenue during this period. Collections and requests for rent relief and deferral during this period may not be indicative of future periods.

We have taken several steps to respond to the pandemic and enhance our liquidity position, including staff reductions, reduction of capital expenditures and operating expenses, engagement with our lenders to negotiate modifications to our debt facilities and instruments, and a 90% common share dividend reduction, and we anticipate further actions will be necessary to address the impacts of the pandemic, which may include suspension or further reduction of share dividends. It remains highly uncertain and difficult to predict how long the pandemic and the economic challenges and restrictions it has resulted in will last, but we expect the pandemic to continue to have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors -The COVID-19 global pandemic and the public health and governmental actions in response have adversely affected, and will likely continue to adversely affect, our business, financial condition, liquidity and operating results. The extent and duration of such effects are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.”

 

In recent years, there has been an increased level of tenant bankruptcies and store closings by tenants who have been significantly impacted by these factors.factors, and the impacts of the global COVID-19 pandemic have created additional economic challenges for many of our tenants.

 

ThoughAlthough we expectopened certain tenants at our redevelopment projects in 2019 and early 2020 and expect additional tenant openings later in 2020 subsequent to open in the fall of 2019,COVID-19 pandemic shutdowns, we also have tenants who continue to face significant economic challenges, particularly in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, and we are in active discussions to restructure certain leasing arrangements through, among other things, downsizing and rent relief, which is expected to have a significant and unfavorable impact on our operating results.

Anchor Replacements

In recent years, through property dispositions, proactive store recaptures, lease terminations and other activities, we have made efforts to reduce our risks associated with certain department store concentrations.

During 2019, we re-opened or introduced additional tenants to former anchor positions at Woodland Mall in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Valley Mall in Hagerstown, Maryland and have implemented our ongoing anchor replacement program. In December 2016, we acquired thePlymouth Meeting Mall, in Plymouth Meeting, Pennsylvania. We opened Von Maur and Urban Outfitters, on a site formerly occupied by Sears property at Woodland Mall and in-line lease-up continues. At Valley Mall, we opened Onelife Fitness in 2017February 2019 to complete the former Macy’s redevelopment and during the year we recapturedsigned a lease with Dick’s Sporting Goods to occupy the former Sears premisesstore at Capital Citythe property. Dick’s Sporting Goods opened in the first quarter of 2020. At Plymouth Meeting Mall, we opened Burlington, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Edge Fitness and Magnolia Mall (we have since re-leasedMiller’s Ale House in the Capital City Mallformer Macy’s location during 2019, and Magnolia Mall spaces). Alsothe last tenant, Michael’s, opened in the first quarter of 2020. In 2017, we purchased the Macy’s locationslocation at Moorestown Mall Valley Viewin Moorestown, New Jersey and opened Sierra Trading in 2019 and Michael’s in the first quarter of 2020.

Construction was completed in the first quarter of 2020 giving way to the opening of Burlington in place of a former Sears at Dartmouth Mall in Dartmouth, Massachusetts. We expect to continue to move forward with several outparcels at Dartmouth Mall resulting from the Sears recapture and Valley Mall locations and we re-leased all of these former Macy’s stores. The replacement tenantworking with large format prospects for Macy’sspace adjacent to Burlington.

We currently have three vacant anchor positions at Valley View Mall filed for bankruptcyin La Crosse, Wisconsin and subsequentlyduring 2019, an additional anchor, Sears, closed that store. We terminatedat Exton Square Mall in Exton, Pennsylvania. In January 2020, the lease of the SearsLord & Taylor store at DartmouthMoorestown Mall effective in 2019Moorestown, New Jersey closed and have entered into a lease for a replacement tenant.we are working with several retail and entertainment prospects to fill the space. We have entered into a ground lease forhad been notified by Sears of its plans to close stores at Moorestown Mall in Moorestown, New Jersey and Jacksonville Mall in Jacksonville, North Carolina, which it subsequently did close in April 2020. Sears continues to be financially obligated pursuant to the land associated with the Macy’s store locatedleases at Plymouth Meeting Mall and have executed leases with five replacement tenants for that location.

Timing of occupancy has not yet been determined due to uncertainty around duration of buildout due to COVID-19 restrictions on construction.

 

In response to anchor store closings and other trends in the retail space, we have been changing the mix of tenants at our properties. We have been reducing the percentage of traditional mall tenants and increasing the share of space dedicated to dining, entertainment, fast fashion, off price, and large format box tenants. Some of these changes may result in the redevelopment of all or a portion of our properties. See “—Capital Improvements, Redevelopment and Development Projects.”

 

To fund the capital necessary to replace anchors and to maintain a reasonable level of leverage, we expect to use a variety of means available to us, subject to and in accordance with the terms of our Credit Agreements. These steps might include (i) making additional borrowings under our 2018 Revolving Facility,Credit Agreements (assuming continued compliance with the financial covenants thereunder), (ii) obtaining construction loans on specific projects, (iii) selling properties or interests in properties with values in excess of their mortgage loans (if applicable) and applying the excess proceeds to fund capital expenditures or for debt reduction, (iv) obtaining capital from joint ventures or other partnerships or arrangements involving our contribution of assets with institutional investors, private equity investors or other REITs, or (v) obtaining equity capital, including through the issuance of common or preferred equity securities if market conditions are favorable, or through other actions. As discussed in Note 4 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements, we entered into amendments to our Credit Agreements in March 2020 to provide certain debt covenant relief through September 30, 2020, in anticipation of a longer term solution prior to the expiration of the initial modification. Accordingly, we anticipate entering into additional modifications of our Credit Agreements and, in light of the effects of COVID-19 on our business, operations, liquidity and financial condition, we are also in discussions with the lenders of our properties’ mortgage loans to seek modifications of such loans. No assurance can be provided that we will obtain such modifications.

Capital Improvements, Redevelopment and Development Projects

 

We might engage in various types of capital improvement projects at our operating properties. Such projects vary in cost and complexity, and can include building out new or existing space for individual tenants, upgrading common areas or exterior areas such as parking lots, or redeveloping the entire property, among other projects. Project costs are accumulated in “Construction in progress” on our consolidated balance sheet until the asset is placed into service, and amounted to $150.8$81.5 million as of June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020.

As of March 31, 2020, we had unaccrued contractual and other commitments related to our capital improvement projects and development projects at our consolidated and unconsolidated properties of $56.8 million, including $32.8 million of commitments related to the redevelopment of Fashion District Philadelphia, in the form of tenant allowances and contracts with general service providers and other professional service providers.

In 2014, we entered into a 50/50 joint venture with The Macerich Company (“Macerich”) to redevelop Fashion District Philadelphia. As we redevelop Fashion District Philadelphia, operating results in the short term, as measured by sales, occupancy, real estate revenue, property operating expenses, Net Operating Income (“NOI”) and depreciation, will continue to be affected until the newly constructed space is completed, leased and occupied. Fashion District Philadelphia is scheduled to openopened in September 2019.2019 and is not yet fully stabilized as development work is continuing.

In January 2018, we along with Macerich, our partner in the Fashion District Philadelphia redevelopment project, joint venture entity entered into a $250.0 million term loan (the “FDP Term Loan”). The initial term of the FDP Term Loan is five years, and bears interest at a variable rate of 2.00% over LIBOR. PREIT and Macerich have secured the FDP Term Loan by pledging their respective equity interests of 50% each in the entities that own the Fashion District Philadelphia. The entire $250.0 million available under the FDP Term Loan was drawn during the first quarter of 2018, and we received an aggregate of $123.0 million as a distribution of our share of the draws.

In July 2019, $26.0A total of $51.0 million was drawn during the third quarter of 2019 and we received an aggregate distributions of $12.5$25.0 million as a distribution for our share of the drawdraws.

We also own one development property, but we do not expect to make any significant investment at this property in July 2019. As of July 31, 2019, lender commitments have not been received for the remaining $74.0 million available under the FDP Term Loan.short term.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Critical Accounting Policies are those that require the application of management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often because of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and that might change in subsequent periods. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management has utilized available information, including our past history, industry standards and the current economic environment, among other factors, in forming its estimates and judgments, giving due consideration to materiality. Management has also considered events and changes in property, market and economic conditions, estimated future cash flows from property operations and the risk of loss on specific accounts or amounts in determining its estimates and judgments. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In addition, other companies may utilize different estimates, which may affect comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in a similar business. The estimates and assumptions made by management in applying Critical Accounting Policies have not changed materially during 20192020 or 2018,2019, except as otherwise noted, and none of these estimates or assumptions have proven to be materially incorrect or resulted in our recording any significant adjustments relating to prior periods. We will continue to monitor the key factors underlying our estimates and judgments, but no change is currently expected.

For additional information regarding our Critical Accounting Policies, see “Critical Accounting Policies” in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.2019.

 

Asset Impairment of Assets

 

Real estate investments and related intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the property might not be recoverable. Arecoverable, which is referred to as a “triggering event.” The COVID-19 impact on the economy and market conditions, together with the resulting closures of our properties, was deemed to be a triggering event at March 31, 2020 which led to an impairment review. In connection with our review of our long-lived assets for impairment, we utilize qualitative and quantitative factors in order to estimate fair value. The significant qualitative factors that we use include age and condition of the property, market conditions in the property’s trade area, competition with other shopping centers within the property’s trade area and the creditworthiness and performance of the property’s tenants. The significant quantitative factors that we use include historical and forecasted financial and operating information relating to the property, such as net operating income, occupancy statistics, vacancy projections and tenants’ sales levels.

If there is a triggering event in relation to a property to be held and used, is considered impaired only if management’swe will estimate of the aggregate future cash flows, less estimated capital expenditures, to be generated by the property, undiscounted and without interest charges, are less thancharges. In addition, this estimate may consider a probability weighted cash flow estimation approach when alternative courses of action to recover the carrying valueamount of the property. This estimate takes intoa long-lived asset are under consideration factors such as expected future operating income, trends and prospects, as well as the effectsor when a range of demand, competition and other factors.possible values is estimated.

The determination of undiscounted cash flows requires significant estimates by management, including the expected course of action at the balance sheet date that would lead to such cash flows. Subsequent changes in estimated undiscounted cash flows arising from changes in the anticipated action to be taken with respect to the property could impact the determination of whether an impairment exists and whether the effects could materially affect our net income. To the extent estimated undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the property, the loss will be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the property over the estimated fair value of the property.

Assessment of our ability to recover certain lease related costs must be made when we have a reason to believe that the tenant might not be able to perform under the terms of the lease as originally expected. This requires us to make estimates as to the recoverability of such costs.

Table of Contents

An other than temporary impairment of an investment in an unconsolidated joint venture is recognized when the carrying value of the investment is not considered recoverable based on evaluation of the severity and duration of the decline in value. To the extent impairment has occurred, the excess carrying value of the asset over its estimated fair value is charged to income.

If We concluded that there is a triggering event in relation to a property to be held and used, we will estimate the aggregate future cash flows, less estimated capital expenditures, to be generated by the property, undiscounted and without interest charges. In addition, this estimate may consider a probability weighted cash flow estimation approach when alternative courseswas no impairment as of action to recover the carrying amount of a long-lived asset are under consideration or when a range of possible values is estimated.

New Accounting Developments

 

See Note 1 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for descriptions of new accounting developments.

 

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

 

We have no material off-balance sheet items other than (i) the unconsolidated partnerships described in Note 3 to theour unaudited consolidated financial statements and in the “Overview” section above.

above, (ii) unaccrued contractual commitments related to our capital improvement and development projects at our consolidated and unconsolidated properties, and (iii) specifically with respect to our joint venture formed with Macerich to develop Fashion District Philadelphia, our operating partnership, PREIT Associates, has jointly and severally guaranteed the obligations of the joint venture to complete a comprehensive redevelopment of that property costing not less than $300.0 million within 48 months after commencement of construction, which was March 14, 2016, and has severally guaranteed its 50% share of the FDP Term Loan (see Note 3 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements), which currently has $301.0 million outstanding (our share of which is $150.5 million). If our Fashion District Philadelphia joint venture were unable to satisfy its obligations under the FDP Term Loan and we were required to satisfy its payment obligations under the guarantee, this could have a material impact on our liquidity and available capital resources. The FDP Term Loan balance will become due in 2023.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $13.5 million compared to a net loss of $16.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. This $2.7 million decrease was primarily due to: (a) non-recurring items recorded in the prior year including a loss on debt extinguishment of $4.8 million and an asset impairment charge of $1.5 million on an undeveloped land parcel both of which had a favorable impact on the current year; (b) a decrease in depreciation and amortization of $4.6 million in the current period; and (c) a gain on the sale of real estate of $2.0 million recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2020; partially offset by a $10.7 million decrease in real estate revenue as described below. See “—Real Estate Revenue.”

Initial gross rent renewal spread is computed by comparing the initial rent per square foot in the new lease to the final rent per square foot amount in the expiring lease. For purposes of this computation, the rent amount includes minimum rent, common area maintenance (“CAM”) charges, estimated real estate tax reimbursements and marketing charges, but excludes percentage rent. In certain cases, a lower rent amount may be payable for a period of time until specified conditions in the lease are satisfied.

(2)

Average rent renewal spread is computed by comparing the average rent per square foot over the new lease term to the final rent per square foot amount in the expiring lease. For purposes of this computation, the rent amount includes minimum rent and fixed CAM charges, but excludes pro rata CAM charges, estimated real estate tax reimbursements, marketing charges and percentage rent.

(3)

Tenant improvements and certain otherThese leasing costs are presented as annualized amounts per square foot and are spread uniformly over the initial lease term.

Includes 9 leases and 30,552 square feet of GLA with respect to our unconsolidated partnerships. We own a 25% to 50% interest in each of our unconsolidated properties and do not control such properties. Our percentage ownership is not necessarily indicative of the legal and economic implications of our ownership interest.

(1)

Initial gross rent renewal spread is computed by comparing the initial rent per square foot in the new lease to the final rent per square foot amount in the expiring lease. For purposes of this computation, the rent amount includes minimum rent, common area maintenance (“CAM”) charges, estimated real estate tax reimbursements and marketing charges, but excludes percentage rent. In certain cases, a lower rent amount may be payable for a period of time until specified conditions in the lease are satisfied.

(2)

Average rent renewal spread is computed by comparing the average rent per square foot over the new lease term to the final rent per square foot amount in the expiring lease. For purposes of this computation, the rent amount includes minimum rent and fixed CAM charges, but excludes pro rata CAM charges, estimated real estate tax reimbursements, marketing charges and percentage rent.

(3)

Tenant improvements and certain other leasing costs are presented as annualized amounts per square foot and are spread uniformly over the initial lease term.

(4)

We own a 25% to 50% interest in each of our unconsolidated properties and do not control such properties. Our percentage ownership is not necessarily indicative of the legal and economic implications of our ownership interest. See “— Non-GAAP Supplemental Financial Measures” for further details on our ownership interests in our unconsolidated properties.

Overview

Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $6.1 million, a decreased loss of $26.2 million compared to a net loss of $32.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018. This decreased loss primarily reflected an impairment of assets of $34.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, which was not repeated in 2019, and which was partially offset by: (a) a $6.9 million decrease in lease termination revenues; (b) a $1.5 million decrease in capitalized leasing costs as a result of the adoption of ASC 842 effective January 1, 2019; and (c) a $2.0 million decrease in non-Same Store NOI.

Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $22.3 million, a decreased loss of $13.7 million compared to a net loss of $36.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. This decreased loss primarily reflected an impairment of assets of $34.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, which was not repeated in 2019, and which was partially offset by: (a) a $6.7 million decrease in lease termination revenues (b) a loss on debt extinguishment of $4.8 million incurred in connection with the defeasance of a mortgage loan recorded in the first quarter of 2019; (c) an asset impairment of $1.5 million on an undeveloped land parcel recorded in the first quarter of 2019; (d) a $2.2 million decrease in gains on sale of real estate by equity method investees; (e) a $2.7 million decrease in capitalized leasing costs as a result of the adoption of ASC 842 effective January 1, 2019; (f) a $0.5 million increase in employee separation expenses; (g) $0.4 million of dilution from asset sales; (h) a $3.3 million decrease in non-Same Store NOI; and (i) a $0.6 million increase in interest expense.

Table of Contents

The amounts in the preceding tables reflect our consolidated properties and our unconsolidated properties. Our unconsolidated properties are presented under the equity method of accounting in the line item “Equity in income of partnerships.”

 

Real estate revenue

 

Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASC 842”) and related guidance using the optional transition method and elected to apply the provisions of the standard as of the adoption date rather than the earliest date presented. Prior period amounts were not restated. Since we adopted the practical expedient in ASC 842, which allows us to avoid separating lease (minimum rent) and non-lease rental income (common area maintenance and real estate tax reimbursements), all rental income earned pursuant to tenant leases is reflected as one line, “Lease revenue,” in the consolidated statement of operations. Utility reimbursements are presented separately in “Expense reimbursements.” We review the collectability of both billed and unbilled lease revenues each reporting period, taking into consideration the tenant’s payment history, credit profile and other factors, including its operating performance. For any tenant receivable balances deemed to be uncollectible, under ASC 842 we record an offset for credit losses directly to Lease revenue in the consolidated statement of operations. Previously, under ASC 840, uncollectible tenants’ receivables were reported in Other property operating expenses in the consolidated statement of operations.

NON-GAAP SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL MEASURES

 

Overview

 

The preceding discussion analyzes our financial condition and results of operations in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for the periods presented. We also use Net Operating Income (“NOI”) and Funds from Operations (“FFO”), which are non-GAAP financial measures, to supplement our analysis and discussion of our operating performance:

 

We believe that NOI is helpful to management and investors as a measure of operating performance because it is an indicator of the return on property investment and provides a method of comparing property performance over time. When we use and present NOI, we also do so on a same store (“Same Store NOI”) and non-samenon same store (“non-SameNon Same Store NOI”) basis to differentiate between properties that we have owned for the full periods presented and properties acquired, sold, under redevelopment or designated as non-core during those periods. Furthermore, our use and presentation of NOI combines NOI from our consolidated properties and NOI attributable to our share of unconsolidated properties in order to arrive at total NOI. We believe that this is also helpful information because it reflects the pro rata contribution from our unconsolidated properties that are owned through investments accounted for under GAAP as equity in income of partnerships. See “Unconsolidated Properties and Proportionate Financial Information” below.

 

We believe that FFO is also helpful to management and investors as a measure of operating performance because it excludes various items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of operating performance, such as gains on sales of operating real estate and depreciation and amortization of real estate, among others. In addition to FFO and FFO per diluted share and OP Unit, when applicable, we also present FFO, as adjusted and FFO per diluted share and OP Unit, as adjusted, which we believe is helpful to management and investors because they adjust FFO to exclude items that management does not believe are indicative of operating performance, such as provision for employee separation expense and accelerated amortization of financing costs.

 

We use both NOI and FFO, or related terms like Same Store NOI and, when applicable, Funds From Operations, as adjusted, for determining incentive compensation amounts under certain of our performance-based executive compensation programs.

 

NOI and FFO are commonly used non-GAAP financial measures of operating performance in the real estate industry, and we use them as supplemental non-GAAP measures to compare our performance between different periods and to compare our performance to that of our industry peers. Our computation of NOI, FFO and other non-GAAP financial measures, such as Same Store NOI, non-SameNon Same Store NOI, NOI attributable to our share of unconsolidated properties, and FFO, as adjusted, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by our industry peers. None of these measures are measures of performance in accordance with GAAP, and they have limitations as analytical tools. They should not be considered as alternative measures of our net income, operating performance, cash flow or liquidity. They are not indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions. Please see below for a discussion of these non-GAAP measures and their respective reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.

Unconsolidated Properties and Proportionate Financial Information

 

The non-GAAP financial measures presented below incorporate financial information attributable to our share of unconsolidated properties. This proportionate financial information is non-GAAP financial information, but we believe that it is helpful information because it reflects the pro rata contribution from our unconsolidated properties that are owned through investments accounted for under GAAP using the equity method of accounting. Under such method, earnings from these unconsolidated partnerships are recorded in our statements of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP under the caption entitled “Equity in income of partnerships.”

 

To derive the proportionate financial information reflected in the tables below as “unconsolidated,” we multiplied the percentage of our economic interest in each partnership on a property-by-property basis by each line item. Under the partnership agreements relating to our current unconsolidated partnerships with third parties, we own a 25% to 50% economic interest in such partnerships, and there are generally no provisions in such partnership agreements relating to special non-pro rata allocations of income or loss, and there are no preferred or priority returns of capital or other similar provisions. While this method approximates our indirect economic interest in our pro rata share of the revenue and expenses of our unconsolidated partnerships, we do not have a direct legal claim to the assets, liabilities, revenues or expenses of the unconsolidated partnerships beyond our rights as an equity owner in the event of any liquidation of such entity. Our percentage ownership is not necessarily indicative of the legal and economic implications of our ownership interest. Accordingly, NOI and FFO results based on our share of the results of unconsolidated partnerships do not represent cash generated from our investments in these partnerships.

 

We have determined that we hold a non controlling interest in each of our unconsolidated partnerships, and account for such partnerships using the equity method of accounting, because:

 

Except for two properties that we co-manage with our partner, all of the other entities are managed on a day-to-day basis by one of our other partners as the managing general partner in each of the respective partnerships. In the case of the co-managed properties, all decisions in the ordinary course of business are made jointly.

 

The managing general partner is responsible for establishing the operating and capital decisions of the partnership, including budgets, in the ordinary course of business.

 

All major decisions of each partnership, such as the sale, refinancing, expansion or rehabilitation of the property, require the approval of all partners.

 

Voting rights and the sharing of profits and losses are generally in proportion to the ownership percentages of each partner.

 

We hold legal title to a property owned by one of our unconsolidated partnerships through a tenancy in common arrangement. For this property, such legal title is held by us and another entity, and each has an undivided interest in title to the property. With respect to this property, under the applicable agreements between us and the entity with ownership interests, we and such other entity have joint control because decisions regarding matters such as the sale, refinancing, expansion or rehabilitation of the property require the approval of both us and the other entity owning an interest in the property. Hence, we account for this property like our other unconsolidated partnerships using the equity method of accounting. The balance sheet items arising from this property appear under the caption “Investments in partnerships, at equity.”

 

For further information regarding our unconsolidated partnerships, see Note 3 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

 

Net Operating Income (“NOI”)

 

NOI (a non-GAAP measure) is derived from real estate revenue (determined in accordance with GAAP, including lease termination revenue), minus property operating expenses (determined in accordance with GAAP), plus our pro rata share of revenue and property operating expenses of our unconsolidated partnership investments. NOI excludes other income, general and administrative expenses, insurance recoveries, employee separation expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, impairment of assets, gains/ adjustment to gains on sale of interest in non operating real estate, gain on salesales of interest in real estate by equity method investee, gains/ losses on sales of interests in real estate, net, gain or loss on debt extinguishment, and project costs and other expenses. We believe that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to NOI.

 

Same Store NOI is calculated using retail properties owned for the full periods presented and excludes properties acquired, disposed, under redevelopment or designated as non-core during the periods presented. Non-SameIn 2018, Wyoming Valley Mall was designated as non-core and subsequently conveyed to the lender of the mortgage loan secured by that property in September 2019. In 2019, Exton Square and Valley View Malls were designated as non-core and are excluded from Same Store NOI. Non Same Store NOI is calculated using the retail properties excluded from the calculation of Same Store NOI.

Total NOI decreased by $10.0$7.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2018, primarilyMarch 31, 2019 due to (a) a $6.9 million decrease in lease termination revenue and a $1.6$5.3 million decrease in Same Store NOI excluding lease termination revenue.and (b) a decrease of $2.4 million in Non Same Store NOI. The decrease in Same Store NOI is primarily due to lost revenues from bankrupt tenants, an increase in credit losses and a decrease in percentage of sales revenue due to COVID-19 related mall closures. The decrease in NOI from Non Same Store properties is primarily due to the conveyance of Wyoming Valley Mall and lower NOI contributions from Valley View and Wyoming Valley Malls, due toExton Square Mall, resulting from an anchor closingsclosing and related co-tenancy revenue adjustments.adjustments, the sale of an outparcel during the second quarter of 2019 and a decrease in other non-recurring revenues compared to the first quarter of 2019.

Total NOI decreased by $10.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018, primarily due to a $6.7 million decrease in lease termination revenue and a $2.8 million decrease in non-Same Store NOI excluding lease termination revenue. The decrease in Non Same Store properties is primarily due to the sale of an office property by an equity method investee in February 2018, and lower NOI contributions from Valley View and Wyoming Valley Malls, due to anchor closings and related co-tenancy revenue adjustments. See “— Real Estate Revenue” and “— Property Operating Expenses” above for further information about the factors affecting NOI from our consolidated properties.

Funds From Operations (“FFO”)

 

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) defines FFO, which is a non-GAAP measure commonly used by REITs, as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding (i) depreciation and amortization related to real estate, (ii) gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, (iii) gains and losses from change in control, and (iv) impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity. We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by NAREIT, which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition, or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do.

31


Table of Contents

FFO is a commonly used measure of operating performance and profitability among REITs. We use FFO and FFO per diluted share and unit of limited partnership interest in our operating partnership (“OP Unit”) and, when applicable, related measures such as Funds From Operations, as adjusted, in measuring our performance against our peers and as one of the performance measures for determining incentive compensation amounts earned under certain of our performance-based executive compensation programs. 

 

FFO does not include gains and losses on sales of operating real estate assets or impairment write downs of depreciable real estate, which are included in the determination of net income in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, FFO is not a comprehensive measure of our operating cash flows. In addition, since FFO does not include depreciation on real estate assets, FFO may not be a useful performance measure when comparing our operating performance to that of other non-real estate commercial enterprises. We compensate for these limitations by using FFO in conjunction with other GAAP financial performance measures, such as net income and net cash provided by operating activities, and other non-GAAP financial performance measures, such as NOI. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered to be an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of our financial performance or to be an alternative to cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions. We believe that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP measurement to FFO.

 

We also present Funds From Operations, as adjusted, and Funds From Operations per diluted share and OP Unit, as adjusted, which are non-GAAP measures, for the three months ended June 30,March 31, 2020 and 2019, and 2018, respectively, to show the effect of such items as gain or loss on debt extinguishment (including accelerated amortization of financing costs), impairment of assets, provision for employee separation expense and insurance recoveries or losses, net, which affected our results of operations, but are not, in our opinion, indicative of our operating performance.

These forward-looking statements reflect our current views about our future liquidity and capital resources, and are subject to risks and uncertainties that might cause our actual liquidity and capital resources to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Additional factors that might affect our liquidity and capital resources include those discussed herein and in the section entitled “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20182019 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.SEC. We do not intend to update or revise any forward-looking statements about our liquidity and capital resources to reflect new information, future events or otherwise.

Capital Resources

 

We currently expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements, including distributions to shareholders, recurring capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions, but excluding acquisitions and redevelopment and development projects, generally through our available working capital and net cash provided by operations borrowings underand our 2018 Revolving Facility, subject to the terms and conditions of our 2018 Revolving Facility,Facility. See “Identical covenants and asset sales, includingcommon provisions contained in the saleCredit Agreements” below for covenant information. We expect to spend approximately $56.8 million related to our capital improvements and development projects. In connection with the impacts of land parcelsthe COVID-19 pandemic on our business, we have announced that, beginning with the second quarter of 2020, we intend to third parties for multifamily and hotel developments.reduce the common share dividend per share by 90% to $0.02. We believe that our net cash provided by operations will be sufficient to allow us to make any distributions necessary to enable us to continue to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.amended, though we may determine it is appropriate to suspend or further reduce dividends from current levels. The aggregate quarter’s distributions made to preferred shareholders, common shareholders and OP Unit holders for the sixthree months endedJune 30, 2019 March 31, 2020 were $47.1$23.3 million, based on the quarter’s distributions of $0.9218$0.4609 per Series B Preferred Share, $0.9000distributions of $0.45 per Series C Preferred Share, $0.8594distributions of $0.4297 per Series D Preferred Share and $0.42distributions of $0.21 per common share and OP Unit.On May 19, 2020, we announced that our Board of Trustees declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.02 per common share payable on June 15, 2020 to common shareholders of record on June 1, 2020. Simultaneously, our Board of Trustees also declared quarterly cash dividends of $0.4609375 per share on our 7.375% Series B Cumulative Redeemable PerpetualPreferred Shares, $0.450000 per share on our 7.20% Series C Preferred Shares, and $0.4296875 per share on our 6.875% Series D Preferred Shares. These dividends are also payable on June 15, 2020 to holders of record on June 1, 2020.

 

In December 2017,2019, our universal shelf registration statement was filed with the SEC and, in January 2020, it became effective. We may use the availability under our shelf registration statement to offer and sell common shares of beneficial interest, preferred shares and various types of debt securities, among other types of securities, to the public.

 

During the first quarter of 2020, we raised capital from a number of sources, including proceeds of $8.0 million from asset sales and net proceeds of $34.0 million from our revolving facilities. In April 2020, in light of the impact of COVID-19 on our business and limited capital resources, we applied for and received a loan in the amount of $4.5 million under the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. PPP loans are eligible for forgiveness pursuant to program guidelines to the extent the proceeds are used for qualifying purposes within the eight-weeks following loan funding. No assurance can be provided that any portion of our loan will be forgiven. On April 23, 2020, the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) issued new guidance about the eligibility of a public company with substantial market value and access to capital markets to qualify for a PPP loan. On April 28, 2020,  the SBA and the Department of Treasury announced that the SBA will review all PPP loans in excess of $2 million and for which the borrower applies for forgiveness. We believe, including on the basis of advice of external legal counsel, that we qualify for the loan under the PPP guidelines, but should we be audited or reviewed as a result of applying for forgiveness or otherwise, such audit or review could result in the diversion of management’s time and attention, and legal and reputational costs. If we were to be audited and receive an adverse finding in such audit, we could be required to return the full amount of the PPP loan, which could reduce our liquidity, and potentially subject us to additional fines and penalties.

We are actively seeking to raise additional capital, including through asset dispositions identified through our portfolio property reviews. Disposing of these properties can enable us to redeploy or recycle our capital to other uses. During December 2019 and subsequently, we have executed agreements of sale that are expected to provide an aggregate of up to approximately $281.0 million in proceeds and net liquidity improvement of approximately $133.0 million. These agreements include a sale-leaseback transaction for five properties, the sale of land parcels for multifamily residential development, the sale of operating outparcels and the sale of land parcels for hotel development. We have also executed letters of intent with other potential buyers to sell several land parcels for multifamily residential development. Each of the transactions is subject to numerous closing conditions, including the completion of due diligence and securing of entitlements, and closing of the transactions cannot be assured or the timing of their completion yet estimated with certainty. We are also engaging in discussions with the lenders under our Credit Agreements and the lenders of our properties’ mortgage loans for modifications of those loans in an effort to ensure continued compliance with the obligations thereunder and, to the extent applicable, continued ability to borrow thereunder.

Table of Contents

The following are some of the factors that could affect our cash flows and require the funding of future cash distributions, recurring capital expenditures, tenant improvements or leasing commissions with sources other than operating cash flows:

 

adverse changes or prolonged downturns in general or due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, local or retail industry economic, financial, credit or capital market or competitive conditions, leading to a reduction in real estate revenue or cash flows or an increase in expenses;

 

deterioration in our tenants’ business operations and financial stability, including anchor or non-anchor tenant bankruptcies, leasing delays or terminations, or lower sales, causing deferrals or declines in rent, percentage rent and cash flows;

 

inability to achieve targets for, or decreases in, property occupancy and rental rates, resulting in lower or delayed real estate revenue and operating income;

 

increases in operating costs, including increases that cannot be passed on to tenants, which may include costs related to implementing and maintaining social distancing and enhanced sanitation and safety protocols, resulting in reduced operating income and cash flows; and,

 

increases in interest rates, including potentially as a result of the expected phase out of LIBOR, resulting in higher borrowing costs.

In addition, we are continuing to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and the related business and travel restrictions and changes to behavior intended to reduce its spread, and its impact on our tenants, their supply chains and customers and the retail industry. Thus far, the pandemic and the actions taken to address it have had an adverse effect on our business, operations, liquidity and financial condition.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, during March 2020, we temporarily closed all of our enclosed shopping malls. Certain of our malls have since re-opened and are adhering to social distancing and sanitation and safety protocols. The pandemic’s full effect was not experienced in the first quarter of 2020, but is expected to have a more significant impact on our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations in the second quarter of 2020 and thereafter. During March and April, we received many requests from tenants relating to rent relief or deferral. As of the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, a substantial amount of contractual rent receivables for April and May remains outstanding and are under negotiation. We believe that our rent collections are probable, but expect that collections will continue to be below our tenants’ rent obligations as long as governmental orders require non-essential businesses to remain closed and residents to stay at home. While we continue to record rental revenue, the reduced collection levels have impacted our liquidity position and are expected to continue to do so.

The magnitude and duration of the pandemic and its continuing impact on our business, operations, liquidity and financial condition are currently uncertain, as this continues to evolve globally. However, if the outbreak and its impacts continue on their current trajectory, such impacts could continue to grow and affect us in a material way. To the extent that our tenants and their customers and suppliers continue to be impacted by the coronavirus outbreak, or by the other risks, this could continue to materially disrupt our business operations. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors -The COVID-19 global pandemic and the public health and governmental actions in response have adversely affected, and will likely continue to adversely affect, our business, financial condition, liquidity and operating results. The extent and duration of such effects are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.”

We expect to meet certain of our longer-term requirements, such as obligations to fund redevelopment and development projects, certain capital requirements (including scheduled debt maturities), future property and portfolio acquisitions, renovations, expansions and other non-recurring capital improvements, through a variety of capital sources, subject to the terms and conditions of our Credit Agreements, as further described below.

 

The capital and credit markets fluctuate and, at times, limit access to debt and equity financing for companies. While we generally expect to continue to be able to access capital, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, access to debt and equity financing is currently limited and there is no assurance we will be able to do soaccess capital and credit markets in the future or on similar terms and conditions.conditions that are attractive or acceptable to us.

 

LIBOR Alternative

 

In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (the(“FCA”), which is the authority that regulates LIBOR)LIBOR, announced it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. The Alternative Reference Rates Committee ("ARRC") has proposed thatidentified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") isas the rate that represents best practice as the alternative to USD-LIBOR for use in derivatives and other financial contracts that are currently indexed to USD-LIBOR. ARRC has proposedWe are not able to predict when LIBOR will cease to be available or when there will be sufficient liquidity in the SOFR markets. Any changes adopted by FCA or other governing bodies in the method used for determining LIBOR may result in a paced market transition plansudden or prolonged increase or decrease in reported LIBOR. If that were to SOFR from USD-LIBORoccur, our interest payments could change, perhaps substantially. In addition, uncertainty about the extent and organizationsmanner of future changes may result in interest rates and/or payments that are currently working on industry wide and company specific transition plans as it relateshigher or lower than if LIBOR were to derivatives and cash markets exposed to USD-LIBOR. remain available in its current form.

We have material contracts that are indexed to USD-LIBORLIBOR and are monitoring this activity and evaluating the related risks. Torisks, which include interest on loans or amounts received and paid on derivative instruments. These risks arise in connection with transitioning contracts to a new alternative rate,

including any resulting value transfer that may occur. The value of loans, securities, and derivative instruments tied to LIBOR could also be affected if LIBOR is limited or discontinued. For some instruments, the extent thatmethod of transitioning to an alternative rate may be challenging, as they may require negotiation with the respective counterparty.

If a contract is not transitioned to an alternative rate and LIBOR is discontinued, the impact on our contracts is likely to vary by contract. If LIBOR is discontinued or if the methods of calculating LIBOR change from their current form, interest rates on our current or future indebtedness may be adversely affected.

While we expect LIBOR to be available in substantially its current form until the end of 2021, it is possible that rely onLIBOR will become unavailable prior to that point. This could occur, for example, if a requisite number of banks decline to make submissions to the LIBOR benchmark do not provide for replacement rates, we may seekadministrator. In that case, the risks associated with the transition to amend such contracts.an alternative reference rate would be accelerated and magnified.

 

Credit Agreements

 

We have entered into two credit agreements (collectively, as amended, the “Credit Agreements”): (1) the 2018 Credit Agreement, which includes (a) the $400$375 million 2018 Revolving Facility and (b) the $300 million 2018 Term Loan Facility, and (2) the $250 million 2014 7-Year Term Loan. The 2018 Term Loan Facility and the 2014 7-Year Term Loan are collectively referred to as the “Term Loans.”

See On March 30, 2020, we entered into amendments of our Credit Agreements, as discussed in Note 4 in the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statementsstatements.

As of March 31, 2020, we had borrowed $550.0 million under the Term Loans and $289.0 million under the 2018 Revolving Facility. The carrying value of the Term Loans on our consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2020 is net of $1.8 million of unamortized debt issuance costs. The net operating income (“NOI”) from our unencumbered properties is at a level such that within the Unencumbered Debt Yield covenant (see Note 4 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements) under the Credit Agreements, the maximum amount that was available to be borrowed by us under the 2018 Revolving Facility as of March 31, 2020 was $65.3 million, which is not reduced by any usage of the borrowing capacity to fulfill our unrestricted cash liquidity requirement of $25 million as described further in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QNote 4 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

37On March 30, 2020, we entered into an amendment of our Credit Agreements. The primary purpose of the amendments is to provide certain debt covenant relief through September 30, 2020. As of March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with all such financial covenants. However, we anticipate not meeting certain financial covenants applicable under the Credit Agreements during 2020. It was initially anticipated that we would not be in compliance with certain covenants after September 30, 2020, however, in light of COVID-19, our ability to comply with our financial covenants may be impacted prior to September 30, 2020. We plan to continue to work with our lender group to pursue a longer term financing solution prior to any inability to comply with the financial covenants thereunder. In addition, we plan to complete the sale-leaseback of certain properties, sell certain real estate assets and control certain operational costs, and we have also achieved deferral on approximately $11.6 million in real estate tax payments. Due to the inherent risks, unknown results and significant uncertainties associated with each of these matters and the direct correlation between these matters and our ability to satisfy our financial obligations that may arise in 2020, we are unable to conclude that it is probable that we will be able to meet our obligations arising within twelve months of the date of issuance of these financial statements and continue as a going concern.

As a result, management evaluated whether this was mitigated by our approved plans and expectations for the applicable period under the second step of the going concern accounting standard.

Our ability to satisfy obligations under our senior unsecured credit facility and mortgage loans, maintain compliance with our debt covenants and fund recurring costs of operations depends primarily on management’s ability to obtain relief from the lender group in regards to debt covenants, execute the sale-leaseback of certain properties, complete the sale of certain real estate assets which will provide cash from those sales, and continue to control operational costs. While controlling operational costs is within management’s control to some extent, executing the sale-leaseback transactions, selling real estate assets, and obtaining relief from the lender group through modified debt covenant requirements involve performance by third parties and therefore cannot be considered probable of occurring. In particular, as of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we are in active discussions with the lenders participating in our credit facilities to modify the terms of the Credit Agreements and obtain long term debt covenant relief. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors -If we are unable to comply with the covenants in our Credit Agreements, we might be adversely affected” and “We have determined that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.”

As of June 30, 2019, we had borrowed $550.0 million under the Term Loans and $182.0 million was outstanding under our 2018 Revolving Facility. Pursuant to certain covenants in the 2018 Revolving Facility, the unused portion of the 2018 Revolving Facility that was available to us as of June 30, 2019 was $123.6 million.

 

Interest Rate Derivative Agreements

As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, we had interest rate swap agreements outstanding with a weighted average base interest rate of 1.85%1.87% on a notional amount of $796.5$795.2 million, maturing on various dates through May 2023 and a forward starting interest rate swap agreement with a weighted average interest rate of 2.75% on a notional amount of $100.0 million, with an effective date ofin June 2020 and a maturity date ofin May 2023. We entered into these interest rate swap agreements in order to hedge the interest payments associated with our issuances of variable interest rate long term debt. The interest rate swap agreements are net settled monthly.

We assessed the effectiveness of these swap agreements as hedges at inception and continue to do so on a quarterly basis. On March 31, 2020, we considered these interest rate swap agreements to be highly effective as cash flow hedges.

 

As of March 31, 2020, the fair value of derivatives in a liability position, which excludes accrued interest but includes any adjustment for nonperformance risk related to these agreements, was $31.7 million. If we had breached any of the default provisions in these agreements as of March 31, 2020, we might have been required to settle our obligations under the agreements at their termination value (including accrued interest) of $32.9 million. We had not breached any of these provisions as of March 31, 2020.

The carrying amount of the associated assets are recorded in “Deferred costs and other assets,” liabilities are reflected in “Fair value of derivative instruments” and the net unrealized loss is reflected in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

Mortgage Loan Activity

WeIn April 2020, we received a notice of transfer of servicing dated July 9, 2018, from the special servicer for the mortgage loan secured by Wyoming Valley View Mall, which had a balance of $73.4$27.3 million as of June 30, 2019 . Our subsidiary that is the borrower under the loan also received a notice of default on the loan from the lender, dated December 14, 2018. The loan is subject to a cash sweep arrangement as a result of an anchor tenant trigger event. We have entered into an agreement with the lender to jointly market the property for sale for a stipulated period of time. If the property is not sold, we expect to convey the property to the lender by deed in lieu of foreclosure; however, we make no assurances that such a transaction will be completed.

In April 2019, we received a notice from the servicer of the Cumberland Mall mortgage of a cash sweep event due to the failure of an anchor tenant to renew for a full term. We expect the cash sweep period to terminate before the end of 2019.

March 31, 2020.

Mortgage Loans

 

As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, our mortgage loans, which are secured by 10nine of our consolidated properties, are due in installments over various terms extending to October 2025. SevenSix of these mortgage loans bear interest at fixed interest rates that range from 3.88% to 5.95% and had a weighted average interest rate of 4.19%4.08% at June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. Three of our mortgage loans bear interest at variable rates, a portion of which have been swapped to fixed rates, and, taking into consideration the impact of interest rate swaps, had a weighted average interest rate of 4.74%3.83% at June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. The weighted average interest rate of all consolidated mortgage loans was 4.34%4.01% at June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. Mortgage loans for properties owned by unconsolidated partnerships are accounted for in “Investments in partnerships, at equity” and “Distributions in excess of partnership investments” on the consolidated balance sheets and are not included in the table below.

The timing of the payments of these amounts is uncertain. We expect that thesea significant majority of such payments (of which we include 100% of our obligations related to Fashion District Philadelphia, which opened in September 2019) will be made during the remainder of 2019 and inprior to December 31, 2020, but cannot provide any assurance that changed circumstances at these projects will not delay the settlement of these obligations. In addition, we included 100% of the obligations of the Fashion District Philadelphia redevelopment project because our Operating Partnership,operating partnership, PREIT Associates, and Macerich, havehas jointly and severally guaranteed the obligations of the joint venture we formed with Macerich to develop Fashion District Philadelphia to commence and complete a comprehensive redevelopment of that property costing not less than $300.0 million within 48 months after commencement of construction, which was March 14, 2016. As of March 31, 2020, we believe we have satisfied this obligation.

CASH FLOWS

 

Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $62.3$14.4 million for the sixthree months ended June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 compared to $75.1$23.0 million for the sixthree months ended June 30, 2018.March 31, 2019. This decrease was due to changes in working capital between periods, higher interest payments made during the six months ended June 30, 2019, dilution from assets sold in the first six months of June 30, 2018,2019, and the impact of changesdistributions from the new lease accounting standard which requires the expensing of certain leasing costs that were permitted to be capitalized under the previous standard,partnerships, among other factors.

 

Cash flows used in investing activities were $66.3$28.8 million for the sixthree months ended June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 compared to cash flows provided byused in investing activities of $53.0$38.7 million for the sixthree months ended June 30, 2018.March 31, 2019. Cash flows provided by investing activities for the sixthree months ended June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 included $42.1$8.0 million of proceeds from asset sales including the sale of two land parcels and a Whole Foods store, the sale of a mortgage loan and cash distributions of proceeds from real estate sold by an equity method investee, as well as $4.5 million of insurance proceeds.three outparcels. Cash flows used in investing activities included additions to construction in progress of $63.8$20.2 million, investments in partnerships of $35.2$9.3 million (primarily at Fashion District Philadelphia), and real estate improvements of $13.9$2.4 million (primarily related to ongoing improvements at our properties).

 

Cash flows provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 included $123.0 million of distributions from our new Fashion District Philadelphia term loan and $19.7 million of proceeds from our share of the sale of the condominium space at 907 Market Street, partially offset by additions to construction in progress of $22.4 million, investments in partnerships of $31.4 million (primarily at Fashion District Philadelphia), and real estate improvements of $17.2 million (primarily related to ongoing improvements at our properties).

ENVIRONMENTAL

 

We are aware of certain environmental matters at some of our properties. We have, in the past, performed remediation of such environmental matters, and we are not aware of any significant remaining potential liability relating to these environmental matters or of any obligation to satisfy requirements for further remediation. We may be required in the future to perform testing relating to these matters. We have insurance coverage for certain environmental claims up to $25.0 million per occurrence and up to $25.0 million in the aggregate. See our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018,2019, in the section entitled “Item 1A. Risk Factors—We might incur costs to comply with environmental laws, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.”

COMPETITION AND TENANT CREDIT RISK

Competition in the retail real estate market is intense. We compete with other public and private retail real estate companies, including companies that own or manage malls, power centers, strip centers, lifestyle centers, factory outlet centers, theme/festival centers and community centers, as well as other commercial real estate developers and real estate owners, particularly those with properties near our properties, on the basis of several factors, including location and rent charged. We compete with these companies to attract customers to our properties, as well as to attract anchor and non-anchor stores and other tenants. We also compete to acquire land for new site development or to acquire parcels or properties to add to our existing properties. Our malls and our other operating properties face competition from similar retail centers, including more recently developed or renovated centers that are near our retail properties. We also face competition from a variety of different retail formats, including internet retailers, discount or value retailers, home shopping networks, mail order operators, catalogs, and telemarketers. Our tenants face competition from companies at the same and other properties and from other retail formats as well, including internet retailers. This competition could have a material adverse effect on our ability to lease space and on the amount of rent and expense reimbursements that we receive.

The existence or development of competing retail properties and the related increased competition for tenants might, subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreements, require us to make capital improvements to properties that we would have deferred or would not have otherwise planned to make and might also affect the total sales, sales per square foot, occupancy and net operating income of such properties. Any such capital improvements, undertaken individually or collectively, would involve costs and expenses that could adversely affect our results of operations.

We compete with many other entities engaged in real estate investment activities for acquisitions of malls, other retail properties and prime development sites or sites adjacent to our properties, including institutional pension funds, other REITs and other owner-operators of retail properties. When we seek to make acquisitions, competitors might drive up the price we must pay for properties, parcels, other assets or other companies or might themselves succeed in acquiring those properties, parcels, assets or companies. In addition, our potential acquisition targets might find our competitors to be more attractive suitors if they have greater resources, are willing to pay more, or have a more compatible operating philosophy. In particular, larger REITs might enjoy significant competitive advantages that result from, among other things, a lower cost of capital, a better ability to raise capital, a better ability to finance an acquisition, better cash flow and enhanced operating efficiencies. We might not succeed in acquiring retail properties or development sites that we seek, or, if we pay a higher price for a property and/or generate lower cash flow from an acquired property than we expect, our investment returns will be reduced, which will adversely affect the value of our securities.

We receive a substantial portion of our operating income as rent under leases with tenants. At any time, any tenant having space in one or more of our properties could experience a downturn in its business that might weaken its financial condition. Such tenants might enter into or renew leases with relatively shorter terms. Such tenants might also defer or fail to make rental payments when due, delay or defer lease commencement, voluntarily vacate the premises or declare bankruptcy, which could result in the termination of the tenant’s lease or preclude the collection of rent in connection with the space for a period of time, and could result in material losses to us and harm to our results of operations. Also, it might take time to terminate leases of underperforming or nonperforming tenants and we might incur costs to remove such tenants. The COVID-19 pandemic and the economic challenges resulting from it have exacerbated these risks. Some of our tenants occupy stores at multiple locations in our portfolio, and so the effect of any bankruptcy or store closings of those tenants might be more significant to us than the bankruptcy or store closings of other tenants. See “Item 2. Properties—Major Tenants” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.2019. In addition, under many of our leases, our tenants pay rent based, in whole or in part, on a percentage of their sales. Accordingly, declines in these tenants’ sales directly affect our results of operations. Also, if tenants are unable to comply with the terms of their leases, or otherwise seek changes to the terms, including changes to the amount of rent, we might modify lease terms in ways that are less favorable to us. Given current conditions in the economy, certain industries and the capital markets, particularly in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, in some instances retailers that have sought protection from creditors under bankruptcy law have had difficulty in obtaining debtor-in-possession financing, which has decreased the likelihood that such retailers will emerge from bankruptcy protection and has limited their alternatives.

 

SEASONALITY

There is seasonality in the retail real estate industry. Retail property leases often provide for the payment of all or a portion of rent based on a percentage of a tenant’s sales revenue, or sales revenue over certain levels. Income from such rent is recorded only after the minimum sales levels have been met. The sales levels are often met in the fourth quarter, during the November/December holiday season. Also, many new and temporary leases are entered into later in the year in anticipation of the holiday season and a higher number of tenants vacate their space early in the year. As a result, our occupancy and cash flows are generally higher in the fourth quarter and lower in the first and second quarters. Our concentration in the retail sector increases our exposure to seasonality and has resulted, and is expected to continue to result, in a greater percentage of our cash flows being received in the fourth quarter. There is potential for an impact to our holiday season sales levels if COVID-19 related closures are prolonged into the end of 2020 or customer traffic is impacted by social distancing guidelines or COVID-19 related concerns.

38


Table of Contents

INFLATION

Inflation can have many effects on financial performance. Retail property leases often provide for the payment of rent based on a percentage of sales, which might increase with inflation. Leases might also provide for tenants to bear all or a portion of operating expenses, which might reduce the impact of such increases on us. However, rent increases might not keep up with inflation, or if we recover a smaller proportion of property operating expenses, we might bear more costs if such expenses increase because of inflation.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

The analysis below presents the sensitivity of the market value of our financial instruments to selected changes in market interest rates. As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, our consolidated debt portfolio consisted of $984.0$896.5 million of fixed and variable rate mortgage loans (net of debt issuance costs), $300.0 million borrowed under our 2018 Term Loan Facility, which bore interest at a rate of 4.04%3.83% and $250.0 million borrowed under our 2014 7-Year Term Loan, which bore interest at a rate of 4.04%3.83%. As of June 30, 2019, $182.0March 31, 2020, $289.0 million was outstanding under our 2018 Revolving Facility, which bore interest at a rate of 3.70%2.81%.

 

Our mortgage loans, which are secured by 10nine of our consolidated properties, are due in installments over various terms extending to October 2025. SevenSix of these mortgage loans bear interest at fixed interest rates that range from 3.88% to 5.95%, and had a weighted average interest rate of 4.19%4.08% at June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. Three of our mortgage loans bear interest at variable rates, a portion of which has been swapped to fixed rates, and, taking into consideration the impact of interest rate swaps, had a weighted average interest rate of 4.74%3.83% at June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. The weighted average interest rate of all consolidated mortgage loans was 4.34%4.01% at June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. Mortgage loans for properties owned by unconsolidated partnerships are accounted for in “Investments in partnerships, at equity” and “Distributions in excess of partnership investments” on the consolidated balance sheets and are not included in the table below.

As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, we had $992.3$1,098.1 million of variable rate debt. Also, asTo manage interest rate risk and limit overall interest cost, we may employ interest rate swaps, options, forwards, caps and floors, or a combination thereof, depending on the underlying exposure. Interest rate differentials that arise under swap contracts are recognized in interest expense over the life of June 30, 2019,the contracts. If interest rates rise, the resulting cost of funds is expected to be lower than that which would have been available if debt with matching characteristics was issued directly. Conversely, if interest rates fall, the resulting costs would be expected to be, and in some cases have been, higher. We may also employ forwards or purchased options to hedge qualifying anticipated transactions. Gains and losses are deferred and recognized in net income in the same period that the underlying transaction occurs, expires or is otherwise terminated.

As of March 31, 2020, we had entered into interest rate swap agreements outstanding with an aggregate weighted average interest rate of 1.85%1.67% on a notional amount of $796.5$795.2 million maturing on various dates through May 2023 and a forward starting interest rate swap agreementsagreement with a weighted average interest rate of 2.75% on a notional amount of $100.0 million, with an effective date in June 2020 and a maturity date in May 2023.

 

Changes in market interest rates have different effects on the fixed and variable rate portions of our debt portfolio. A change in market interest rates applicable to the fixed portion of the debt portfolio affects the fair value, but it has no effect on interest incurred or cash flows. A change in market interest rates applicable to the variable portion of the debt portfolio affects the interest incurred and cash flows, but does not affect the fair value. The following sensitivity analysis related to our debt portfolio, which includes the effects of our interest rate swap agreements, assumes an immediate 100 basis point change in interest rates from their actual June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 levels, with all other variables held constant.

 

A 100 basis point increase in market interest rates would have resulted in a decrease in our net financial instrument position of $45.9$35.5 million at June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. A 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates would have resulted in an increase in our net financial instrument position of $47.9$36.8 million at June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. Based on the variable rate debt included in our debt portfolio at June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, a 100 basis point increase in interest rates would have resulted in an additional $2.0$3.0 million in interest expense annually. A 100 basis point decrease would have reduced interest incurred by $2.0$3.0 million annually.

To manage interest rate risk and limit overall interest cost, we may employ interest rate swaps, options, forwards, caps and floors, or a combination thereof, depending on the underlying exposure. Interest rate differentials that arise under swap contracts are recognized in interest expense over the life of the contracts. If interest rates rise, the resulting cost of funds is expected to be lower than that which would have been available if debt with matching characteristics was issued directly. Conversely, if interest rates fall, the resulting costs would be expected to be, and in some cases have been, higher. We may also employ forwards or purchased options to hedge qualifying anticipated transactions. Gains and losses are deferred and recognized in net income in the same period that the underlying transaction occurs, expires or is otherwise terminated. See note 7 of the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

 

Because the information presented above includes only those exposures that existed as of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, it does not consider changes, exposures or positions which have arisen or could arise after that date. The information presented herein has limited predictive value. As a result, the ultimate realized gain or loss or expense with respect to interest rate fluctuations will depend on the exposures that arise during the period, our hedging strategies at the time and interest rates.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

In the normal course of business, we have become and might in the future become involved in legal actions relating to the ownership and operation of our properties and the properties that we manage for third parties. In management’s opinion, the resolution of any such pending legal actions is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

 

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risks that could materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. The following is an update to the Company’s risk factors and should be read in conjunction with the risk factors previously disclosed under the caption “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.2019.

We face risks associated with,

The COVID-19 global pandemic and the public health and governmental actions in response have experienced, security breaches through cyber attacks. A significant privacy breach or IT system disruption couldadversely affected, and will likely continue to adversely affect, our business, financial condition, liquidity and we mightoperating results. The extent and duration of such effects are highly uncertain and cannot be requiredpredicted.  

The 2020 global outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19), which was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020, has resulted in travel restrictions, business closures, property shutdowns, government-imposed stay-at-home orders and the implementation of “social distancing” and certain other measures to increase our spending on dataprevent the further spread of the virus, all of which have adversely impacted, and system security, which could adversely affect our financial condition.

We rely on information technology networks and systems, including the Internet,will likely continue to process, transmit and store electronic information, and to manage or support a variety of business processes and activities. In addition,impact, our business, relationshipsfinancial condition, liquidity and operating results, as well as our tenants’ businesses. The continued spread of COVID-19 has also led to unprecedented global economic disruption and volatility in financial markets. We anticipate that our future business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations, including our results for 2020 and potentially thereafter, will be materially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. It remains highly uncertain how long the global pandemic, economic challenges and restrictions on day-to-day life will last. Given the unprecedented and rapidly evolving developments, we cannot reasonably predict or estimate its ultimate impact on us or our tenants, or on our ability or the ability of our tenants to resume more normal operations.

While we have taken several responsive steps (including staff reductions, reduction of capital expenditures and operating expenses, engagement with our tenantslenders to negotiate modifications to our debt facilities and vendors involveinstruments, and a 90% common share dividend reduction), we anticipate that further actions will be necessary to address the storageimpacts of the pandemic, which may include suspension or further reduction of share dividends. The spread of COVID-19 and transmission of proprietary information and sensitive or confidential data. Like many businesses today, we have experienced an increase in cyber-threats and attempted intrusions. Our systems are subjectmeasures taken to reduce its spread subjects us to a variety of formsrisks and could result in the following impacts, some of cyber attackswhich have already occurred and could continue and increase the longer the crisis continues:  

property shutdowns at all of our retail properties across the nine states in which we operate;

tenant failures to pay rent timely, resulting in revenue decreases from our properties and many requests from our tenants for rent relief or deferral;

our rights to enforce remedies available under our leases or ability to collect rents as a landlord may potentially be impacted by state, local or other efforts resulting in rent concessions for tenants or a delay in landlord’s ability to enforce evictions or pursue other remedies available under the leases;

an economic downturn generally, and a decrease in profitability for many of our tenants specifically, as a result of widespread business shutdowns or slowdowns;

deterioration of financial markets leading to a potentially reduced ability to obtain financing for our tenants and us;

disruptions to supply-chain and distribution channels of our tenants, impacting retail product availability;

negative effects on our operations as a result of quarantines, social distancing measures, public safety concerns and limitations on the nature and scope of activities at our properties required by state regulations;

decreased operating performance from reductions in property revenue and cash flows;

potential reductions in the carrying value of our retail properties or other impairments of our assets;

our inability to meet the requirements of the covenants in our existing credit facilities or increases in our cost of capital that make obtaining additional capital more difficult or available only on terms less favorable to us;

negative effects on our liquidity position and the cost of and ability to access funds from financial institutions and capital markets;

delays to capital raise initiatives; and

creation of other risks that may impact us or exacerbation of existing risks, including the risks described in the section entitled “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Ultimately, the significance of COVID-19 on our business remains highly uncertain and will depend on, among other things, the extent and duration of the pandemic, the severity of the disease and the number of people infected with the objectivevirus, the effects on the economy of gaining unauthorized accessthe pandemic and of the measures taken by governmental authorities and other third parties restricting day-to-day life and the length of time that such measures remain in place, and implementation of governmental programs to our systems or data or disrupting our operations.  Security breaches have, from time to time, occurredassist businesses and may occur inconsumers impacted by the future.  Due to the nature of these attacks, there is a risk that an attack or intrusion remains undetected for a period of time.  Though the cyber attacksCOVID-19 pandemic. While we have experienced have not had a material impact on our financial results to date, and we maintain cyber liability insurance coverage, there remains a risk that breaches in security could expose us, our tenants or our employees to a risk of loss, misappropriation of assets that cannot be recovered, or misuse of proprietary information and of sensitive or confidential data. In addition, our information technology systems, some of which are managed or hosted by third-parties, may be susceptible to damage, disruptions or shutdowns due to computer viruses, attacks by computer hackers, telecommunication failures, user errors or catastrophic events, failures during the process of upgrading or replacing software, databases or components thereof, power outages or hardware failures. Any of these occurrences could result in disruptions in our operations, the loss of existing or potential tenants or shoppers, damage to our brand and reputation, regulatory compliance efforts and costs, remediation costs, and litigation and potential liability. Even the most well-protected information remains potentially vulnerable, because the techniques and sophistication used to conduct cyber attacks and breaches of IT systems, as well as the sources of these attacks, change frequently and are often not recognized until they are launched and have been put in place for a period of time.  Although we make substantial efforts to maintain the security of our networks and related systems, there can be no assurance that our security efforts will be effective or that attempted security breaches would not be successful or damaging. Our efforts include conducting periodic assessments of internal and external threats to and vulnerabilities of our information and technology systems, security controls and processes in place and the effectiveness of our management of cybersecurity risk. The results of these assessments are used to create and implement strategies designed to prevent, detect and respond to cybersecurity threats, and we expect to continue to employ cybersecurity risk mitigation measures, as well as seek to improve and expand such measures.  We may incur increasing costs to deploy additional personnel and protection technologies, to train employees and engage third-party experts and consultants, or to notify employees, suppliers or the general public as partexperience an adverse impact on our notification obligations. The cost and operational consequences of implementing further data or system protection measures or remediation efforts could be significant. Our processes, procedures and controls to reduce these risks, our increased awareness of the risk of a cyber incident, and our insurance coverage, however, do not guarantee that ourbusiness, financial results would not be materially impacted by a cyber incident.

Our retailer tenants’ businesses also require the collection, transmission and retention of large volumes of shopper and employee data, including credit and debit card numbers and other personally identifiable information, in various information technology systems. The consequences of cyber attacks perpetrated against our retailer tenants, which may include the misappropriation of assets or sensitive information or an operational disruption, could diminish consumer confidence and spending, result in fines, legal claims or proceedings or other liability, as well as significant remediation costs, any of which could have a material and adverse effect on their financial condition, liquidity and results of operations, andwe cannot estimate the extent to which COVID-19 will impact our future business, generally. This could, in turn, have an adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.

If we are unable to comply with the covenants in our Credit Agreements, we will be adversely affected.

The Credit Agreements require us to satisfy certain customary affirmative and negative covenants and to meet numerous financial tests, including tests relating to our leverage, unencumbered debt yield, interest coverage, fixed charge coverage, tangible net worth, corporate debt yield and facility debt yield. These covenants could limit our ability to respond to changes and competition, reduce our flexibility in conducting our operations by limiting our ability to borrow money, sell or place liens on assets, manage our cash flows, repurchase securities, make capital expenditures or make distributions to shareholders, and restrict our ability to pursue acquisitions, redevelopment and development projects. We are subjectexpect the current conditions in the economy and the retail industry, particularly in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting unprecedented global economic disruption (including disruptions to risks associated with increasesour and our tenants’ businesses and operations), to continue to affect our operating results. The leverage covenant in interestthe Credit Agreements generally takes our net operating income and applies capitalization rates including in connection withto calculate Gross Asset Value, and consequently, deterioration or improvement to our variable interest rate debt.

Asoperating performance also affects the calculation of June 30, 2019, we had $992.3 million of indebtedness with variable interest rates, although we have fixed the interest rates on an aggregate of $796.5 million of this variable rate debt by using derivative instruments.our leverage. In addition, a material decline in future operating results could affect our unconsolidated partnerships have $149.7 million, atability to comply with other financial ratio covenants contained in our proportionate share,Credit Agreements, which are calculated on a trailing four quarter basis. While we are unable to predict or estimate the duration and scope of indebtedness with variable rates. Wethe effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our future operating results, we anticipate such effects will be material. Also, we might incur additional variable rate debtbe restricted in the future,amount we can borrow based on the Unencumbered Debt Yield covenant under the Credit Agreements. Following recent property sales, the NOI from our remaining unencumbered properties is at a level such that the maximum amount that was available to be borrowed by us under the 2018 Revolving Facility was $65.3 million as of March 31, 2020, which is not reduced by any usage of the borrowing capacity to fulfill our unrestricted cash liquidity requirement of $25 million as described further in Note 4 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Furthermore, to determine our compliance with the Credit Agreements, including the covenants, we must apply our judgment to our facts, taking into account our past practice, and interpret the contractual provisions in the agreements. To the extent that our lenders interpret these differently than us, we may have disagreements or disputes, and if we are unable to resolve them, these disagreements may result in material limitations on our ability to access funding under the facility, protracted negotiations, and/or legal proceedings.

We have determined that, as of March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with all the financial covenants in our Credit Agreements. Particularly in light of recent property sales, reduction in our asset base and the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, however, we are at increased risk of being unable to comply with these covenants or having reduced borrowing capacity. We currently anticipate not meeting certain financial covenants applicable under the Credit Agreements during 2020. We regularly engage in discussions with lenders that participate in our senior unsecured credit facility regarding our capital and liquidity resources and needs, including to explore alternatives and ensure that we will remain in compliance with our financial covenants and have continued access to funding under the facility, which alternatives may include waivers or amendments. As discussed in “Liquidity and Capital Resources – Identical covenants and common provisions contained in the Credit Agreements,” on March 30, 2020, we entered into amendments of our Credit Agreements to obtain certain debt covenant relief through September 30, 2020. It was initially anticipated that we would not be in compliance with certain covenants after September 30, 2020, however, in light of COVID-19, our ability to comply with our financial covenants may be impacted prior to September 30, 2020. As of the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we are in active discussions with the lenders participating in our credit facilities to further modify the terms of those agreements, obtain debt covenant relief and pursue a longer term financing solution. There is no assurance that we could obtain such waivers or amendments, and even if obtained, we would likely incur additional costs. Our inability to obtain any such waiver or amendment could result in a breach and a possible event of default under our Credit Agreements, which could allow the lenders to discontinue lending or issuing letters of credit, terminate any commitments they have made to provide us with additional funds, and/or declare amounts outstanding to be immediately due and payable. If a default were to occur, we might have to refinance the debt through secured or unsecured debt financing or private or public offerings of debt or equity securities. If we are unable to do so, the proportionwe might have to liquidate assets, potentially on unfavorable terms. No assurance can be provided that we would be able to liquidate assets in a timely fashion or in satisfaction of our debt with variable interest rates might increase. See “Part I. Item 3. Quantitativeobligations. Any of such consequences could negatively affect our financial position, results of operations, cash flow and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.”                ability to make capital expenditures and distributions to shareholders.

An increaseWe have determined that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

In evaluating whether there are conditions or events, considered in market interest rates applicablethe aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the variable portiondate that the financial statements are issued, our management considered our current financial condition and liquidity sources, including current funds available, forecasted future cash flows and our conditional and unconditional obligations due over the next twelve months. Management considered the following: (i) our senior unsecured facility, which includes a revolving facility maturing in 2022 with a balance of $289.0 million as of March 31, 2020 and term loans maturing in 2023 with a balance of $550.0 million as of December 31, 2019; (ii) our mortgage loans with varying maturities through 2025 with a principal balance of $896.5 million as of March 31, 2020; (iii) the financial covenant compliance requirements of our credit agreements; and (iv) recurring costs of operating our business. As a result of the considerations articulated below, management concluded there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Although we plan to control costs, complete the sale-leaseback of certain properties, sell certain real estate assets and continue to work with the lenders participating in our credit facilities to obtain debt portfolio would increasecovenant relief and pursue longer term financing solutions, and we are also in discussions with the interest incurredlenders of our properties’ mortgage loans to seek modification of those loans, there are inherent risks, unknown results and cash flows necessary to service such debt, subject to our hedging arrangements on such debt. This hassignificant uncertainties associated with each of these matters and could, in the future, adversely affect our results of operationsdirect correlation between these matters and our ability to make distributionssatisfy financial obligations that may arise over the applicable twelve month period. Our ability to shareholders. Also, in coming years, assatisfy obligations under our currentsenior unsecured credit facility and mortgage loans, mature, if these mortgage loans are refinanced at higher interest rates than the ratesmaintain compliance with our debt covenants and fund recurring costs of operations, particularly in effect at the timelight of the prior loans,current COVID-19 pandemic and resulting adverse impacts on our interest expense in connection with debt secured by our properties will increase, and could adversely affect our results of operations andbusiness, depends on management’s ability to make distributionsexecute the sale-leaseback transactions, to shareholders.complete the sale of certain real estate assets, which sales will provide cash, to continue to control costs, and to obtain relief from lenders participating in our credit facilities and from lenders under our properties’ mortgage loans. While controlling costs is within management’s control to some extent, executing the sale-leaseback transactions, selling real estate assets and obtaining relief from lenders or other long term financing solutions involve performance by third parties and therefore cannot be considered probable of occurring.

Furthermore,The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the expected discontinuationrealization of the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR) after 2021assets and the transition away from LIBOR presents various riskssatisfaction of liabilities and challenges, including with respect to our borrowings and hedging arrangements that rely oncommitments in the LIBOR benchmark.  Various parties are working on industry wide and company specific transition plans as it relates to derivatives and cash markets exposed to USD-LIBOR.  We have material contracts indexed to USD-LIBOR and are monitoring this activity and evaluating the related risk. To the extent that our contracts that rely on the LIBOR benchmarknormal course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. Management is taking steps to mitigate the associated risks, but we can provide for replacement rates, we may seekno assurance that cash generated from our operations together with cash received in the future from our various sources of funding will be sufficient to amend such contracts.  While we are focused on effective planning for the phase-out of LIBOR, the transition may divert management attention and could have other adverse consequences for us, including by requiringenable us to pay higher interest on our obligations.continue as a going concern.
