The unaudited condensed consolidated and combined financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared in accordance with GAAPaccounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) applicable to interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10‑Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of only those of a normal and recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and interim results of Brookfield DTLA and the Predecessor Entities as of and for the periods presented have been included. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those that may be expected for a full fiscal year.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 20132014 has been derived from Brookfield DTLA’s audited financial statements; however, the accompanying notes to the condensed consolidated and combined financial statements do not include all disclosures required by GAAP.

The preparation of condensed consolidated and combined financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated and combined financial statements and accompanying notes. For example, estimates and assumptions have been made with respect to fair values of assets and liabilities for applying the acquisition method of accounting, the useful lives of assets, recoverable amounts of receivables, impairment of long-lived assets and fair value of debt. Actual results could ultimately differ from such estimates.

Brookfield DTLA has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) pursuant to Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), commencing with its tax yearperiod ended December 31, 2013. Brookfield DTLA intends to conduct its operations so as to continue to qualify as a REIT. Accordingly, Brookfield DTLA is not subject to U.S. federal income tax, provided that it continues to qualify as a REIT and distributions to its stockholders, if any, generally equal or exceed its taxable income.

Qualification and taxation as a REIT depends upon Brookfield DTLA’s ability to meet the various qualification tests imposed under the Code related to annual operating results, asset diversification, distribution levels and diversity of stock ownership. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that Brookfield DTLA will be organized or be able to operate in a manner so as to continue to qualify as a REIT. If Brookfield DTLA fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal and state income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates, and it may be ineligible to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent tax years. Brookfield DTLA may also be subject to certain state or local income taxes, or franchise taxes on its REIT activities.

Brookfield DTLA has made no provision for income taxes in its condensed consolidated and combined financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2015 and 2014, and 2013, respectively. Brookfield DTLA’s taxable income or loss is different than its financial statement income or loss.

Brookfield DTLA recognizes tax benefits from uncertain tax positions when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits. Income tax positions must meet a more likely than not recognition threshold. Brookfield DTLA had no unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2014March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2013,2014, and Brookfield DTLA does not expect its unrecognized tax benefits balance to change during the next 12 months.

The Predecessor Entities’ 2010, 2011 and 2012 tax years as well as the Predecessor Entities’ short tax period ended October 15, 2013 for Brookfield DTLA and its subsidiaries remain open due to the statute of limitations and may be subject to examination by federal, state and local tax authorities.

Brookfield DTLA was formed for the purpose of consummating the transactions contemplated in the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of April 24, 2013, as amended (the “Merger Agreement”), and the issuance of shares of 7.625% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Series A preferred stock”) in connection with the acquisition of MPG Office Trust, Inc. and MPG Office, L.P. (together, “MPG”). Brookfield DTLA is a direct subsidiary of Brookfield DTLA Holdings LLC (“Brookfield DTLA Holdings”), a Delaware limited liability company, and an indirect subsidiary of Brookfield Office Properties Inc. (“BPO”).

Brookfield DTLA has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) pursuant to Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), commencing with its tax yearperiod ended December 31, 2013. Brookfield DTLA intends to conduct its operations so as to continue to qualify as a REIT. Accordingly, Brookfield DTLA is not subject to U.S. federal income tax, provided that it continues to qualify as a REIT and distributions to its stockholders, if any, generally equal or exceed its taxable income.

Brookfield DTLA receives its income primarily from rental income (including tenant reimbursements) generated from the operations of its office and retail properties, and to a lesser extent, from its parking garages.

Brookfield DTLA’s business requires continued access to adequate cash to fund its liquidity needs. OverThe amount of cash Brookfield DTLA currently generates from its operations is not sufficient to cover Brookfield DTLA’s operating, financing and investing activities, resulting in a “negative cash burn,” and there can be no assurance that the last several years,amount of Brookfield DTLA’s negative cash burn will decrease, or that it will not increase, in the Predecessor Entities have maintained their liquidity position throughfuture. If Brookfield DTLA’s operating cash generated from operationsflow and contributions from TRZ.capital are not sufficient to cover our operating costs or to repay our indebtedness as it comes due, we may issue additional debt and/or equity, including to affiliates of Brookfield DTLA, which issuances could further adversely impact the amount of funds available to Brookfield DTLA for any purpose, including for dividends or other distributions to holders of its capital stock, including the Series A preferred stock. In many cases, such securities may be issued if authorized by board of directors of Brookfield DTLA without the approval of the holders of the Series A preferred stock. See “—Potential Uses of Liquidity—Property Operations” below.

Brookfield DTLA’s potential liquidity sources and uses are, among others, as follows:

As of September 30,March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, Brookfield DTLA had cash and cash equivalents totaling $168.0 million.$115.9 million and $125.0 million, respectively.

Brookfield DTLA’s cash generated from operations is primarily dependent upon (1) the occupancy level of its portfolio, (2) the rental rates achieved on its leases, and (3) the collectability of rent and other amounts billed to its tenants. Net cash generated from operations is tied to the level of operating expenses, described below under “—Potential Uses of Liquidity.”
