Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)
September 30, 2016
(unaudited)
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Readers of this Quarterly Report should refer to the audited consolidated financial statements of InvenTrust Properties Corp. for the year ended December 31, 2015, which are included in InvenTrust Properties Corp.'s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, as certain note disclosures contained in such audited consolidated financial statements have been omitted from this Report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals, except as otherwise noted) necessary for a fair presentation have been included in these financial statements.
1. Organization
The Company was incorporated as Inland American Real Estate Trust, Inc. in October 2004 as a Maryland corporation and has elected to be taxed, and currently qualifies, as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for federal tax purposes. The Company changed its name to InvenTrust Properties Corp. in April 2015. The Company was formed to own, manage, acquire and develop a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate located throughout the United States and to own properties in development and partially own properties through joint ventures, as well as investments in marketable securities and other assets. As of September 30, 2016, the Company's portfolio comprises 74 properties, representing 12.2 million square feet of retail space and 0.3 million square feet of non-core space. As used in these Notes and throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the terms "Company," "InvenTrust," "we," "us," or "our" mean InvenTrust Properties Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiaries and consolidated joint venture investments.
Sale of Student Housing Platform
On June 21, 2016, the Company completed the sale of its student housing platform, University House, to UHC Acquisition Sub LLC (the "Acquiror"), a subsidiary of a joint venture formed between Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, GIC and Scion Communities Investors LLC, pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement"), dated as of January 3, 2016, by and among the Company, University House Communities Group, Inc. and the Acquiror, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement, dated as of May 30, 2016, and as further amended by that certain Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement, dated as of June 20, 2016. The Agreement's gross sales price was $1,410,000. Under the terms of the Agreement, the final net proceeds were determined at the closing of the transaction following the determination of several events and closing considerations. Following certain adjustments and the repayment of related debt, in each case pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company received at the closing net cash consideration, after transaction costs, of approximately $845,000, $9,900 of which was deposited into escrow and relates to post closing obligations, $8,000 of which is being held pending resolution in connection with the completion of a development property as of September 30, 2016.
Spin-Off of Highlands REIT, Inc.
On April 28, 2016, the Company completed the spin-off of its subsidiary, Highlands REIT, Inc. ("Highlands"), which the Company formed to hold substantially all of its remaining non-core assets, through the Company's pro rata taxable distribution of 100% of the outstanding common stock of Highlands to holders of record of the Company's common stock as of the close of business on the record date, which was April 25, 2016 (referred to herein as the "Highlands spin-off"). Each holder of record of the Company's common stock received one share of Highlands' common stock for every one share of the Company's common stock held at the close of business on the record date. Highlands did not list its common stock on any securities exchange or other market in connection with the spin-off.
In connection with the Highlands spin-off, the Company entered into a Separation and Distribution Agreement with Highlands to effect the separation and to provide for the allocation of assets and liabilities. Highlands' real property assets consisted of seven single- and multi-tenant office assets, two industrial assets, six retail assets, two correctional facilities, four parcels of unimproved land and one bank branch. Highlands assumed all liabilities relating to or arising out of these assets (excluding any liabilities relating to the properties previously owned and disposed of by subsidiaries of Highlands prior to the spin-off). The Company also entered into certain agreements with Highlands that, among other things, provide a framework for the relationship between the Company and Highlands as two separate companies, namely a Transition Services Agreement and an Employee Matters Agreement.

On February 3, 2015, the Company completed the spin-off of its lodging subsidiary, Xenia Hotels & Resorts, Inc. ("Xenia"), through a taxable pro rata taxable distribution by the Company of 95% of the outstanding common stock of Xenia to holders of record of the Company's common stock as of the close of business on the record date, which was January 20, 2015 (referred to herein as the "Xenia spin-off"). Each holder of record of the Company's common stock received one share of Xenia's common stock for every eight shares of the Company's common stock held at the close of business on the record date. In lieu of fractional shares, stockholders of the Company received cash. On February 4, 2015, Xenia's common stock began trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the ticker symbol "XHR".
Segment Reporting
Following the Xenia spin-off, the Company no longer has a lodging segment. Therefore, the 46 lodging assets included in the Xenia spin-off, which are disclosed in "Note 4. Disposed Properties", have been classified as discontinued operations as the Xenia spin-off represented a strategic shift that has had a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. The assets and liabilities of these 46 lodging assets are classified as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations on the consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The operations of these 46 lodging assets have been classified as income from discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015.
Following the Highlands spin-off, the Company no longer has a reportable non-core segment. Therefore, the 18 assets and four parcels of unimproved land included in the Highlands spin-off and one non-core asset sold in the second quarter of 2016, all of which are disclosed in "Note 4. Disposed Properties", have been classified as discontinued operations as the Highlands spin-off represented a strategic shift that has had a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. The assets and liabilities of the 18 assets and four parcels of unimproved land and one non-core asset sold in the second quarter of 2016, are classified as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations on the consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The operations of the 18 assets and four parcels of unimproved land and one non-core asset sold in the second quarter of 2016, have been classified as income from discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015.
Following the sale of the student housing platform, the Company no longer has a reportable student housing segment. Therefore, the 17 assets included in the student housing platform sale and one student housing asset sold in the third quarter of 2016, all of which are disclosed in "Note 4. Disposed Properties", have been classified as discontinued operations as the sale represented a strategic shift that has had a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. The assets and liabilities of these 17 assets and one student housing asset are classified as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations on the consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The operations of the 17 assets included in the student housing platform sale and one student housing asset sold in the third quarter of 2016 have been classified as income from discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015.
With the completion of the student housing platform sale on June 21, 2016, the Company completed its previously announced portfolio strategy to focus solely on the retail asset class. Of the former reporting segments identified by the Company, only the retail segment remains as both an operating and reportable segment as of September 30, 2016. Therefore, the Company will no longer present segment information.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of InvenTrust Properties Corp., as well as all wholly owned subsidiaries and consolidated joint venture investments. Wholly owned subsidiaries generally consist of limited liability companies (LLCs) and limited partnerships (LPs). The effects of all significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
Each property is owned by a separate legal entity that maintains its own books and financial records, and each entity's assets are not available to satisfy the liabilities of other affiliated entities, except as otherwise disclosed in "Note 7. Debt".
The Company owned 74 assets as of September 30, 2016, including 73 retail assets with 12,159,788 square feet and one non-core asset with 322,326 square feet. The Company owned 129 assets as of December 31, 2015 and 142 assets as of September 30, 2015.

2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Refer to the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015, as certain note disclosures contained in such audited consolidated financial statements have been omitted from these interim consolidated financial statements.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 to conform to the 2016 presentations. These reclassifications primarily represent the classification of salaries and benefits of corporate-level employees and overhead costs from property operating expenses to general and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 of $1,824 and $4,396, respectively, and the classification of specialty leasing income from rental income to other property income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 of $626 and $1,141, respectively.
Disposition of Real Estate
The Company accounts for dispositions in accordance with FASB ASC 360-20, Real Estate Sales. The Company recognizes gain in full when real estate is sold, provided (a) the profit is determinable, that is, the collectability of the sales price is reasonably assured or the amount that will not be collectible can be estimated, and (b) the earnings process is virtually complete, that is, the seller is not obliged to perform significant activities after the sale to earn the profit.
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, which includes amendments that change the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and require additional disclosures about discontinued operations. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on the entity’s results and operations would qualify as discontinued operations. In addition, ASU 2014-08 expands the disclosure requirements for disposals that meet the definition of a discontinued operation and requires entities to disclose information about disposals of individually significant components that do not meet the definition of discontinued operations. ASU No. 2014-08 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years that begin after December 15, 2014. The Company has elected to early adopt No. ASU 2014-08, effective January 1, 2014.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 and the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 to reflect the classification of the student housing platform sale, the Highlands spin-off and the Xenia spin-off as discontinued operations. The assets and liabilities of these disposal groups classified as held for sale have been classified as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations on the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The operations reflected in discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 include the 17 student housing assets included in the student housing platform sale, the unconsolidated student housing joint venture sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the 18 assets and four parcels of unimproved land included in the Highlands spin-off, one non-core asset, and one student housing asset. The operations of 46 assets included in the Xenia spin-off are also reflected in discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation. This update includes amendments that change the requirements for evaluating limited partnerships and similar entities for consolidation. Under the new guidance, limited partnerships and similar entities will be considered variable interest entities ("VIEs") unless a scope exception applies. As such, entities that consolidate limited partnerships and similar entities that are considered to be VIEs will be subject to VIE primary beneficiary disclosure requirements, and entities that do not consolidate a VIE will be subject to the disclosure requirements that apply to variable interest holders other than the primary beneficiary. The new guidance also eliminates three of the six criteria for determining if fees paid to a decision maker or service provider are considered to be variable interest in a VIE and changes the criteria used to determine if variable interests in a VIE held by related parties of a reporting entity require the reporting entity to consolidate the VIE. This standard is effective for financial statements issued by public companies for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements or disclosure requirements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected. Subsequently, in August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15, Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements, which allows an entity to present the costs related to securing a line-of-credit arrangement as an asset, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings. The Company adopted ASU 2015-03 and 2015-15 effective as of January 1, 2016 with retrospective application to the December 31, 2015 consolidated balance sheet. The effect of the adoption of ASU 2015-03 and 2015-15 was to reclassify debt issuance costs of approximately $8,496 as of December 31, 2015 from deferred costs and other assets in the consolidated balance sheet to a contra account as a deduction from debt in the consolidated balance sheet. There was no effect on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments, which requires that if the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete as of the end of the reporting period in which the acquisition occurs, the acquiror records provisional amounts based on information available at the acquisition date. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2016. The adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in GAAP when it becomes effective, although it will not affect the accounting for rental related revenues. In April 2015, the FASB approved an amendment to the ASU, deferring the effective date one year to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 for public entities. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU No. 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which revises an entity's accounting related to: (i) the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities; (ii) the presentation of certain fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value; and (iii) amends certain disclosure requirements associated with the fair value of financial instruments, including eliminating the requirement for public business entities to disclose the method and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value for financial instruments measured at amortized cost. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is continuing to evaluate this guidance; however, the Company does not expect its adoption will have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, amending the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor accounting. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted as of the standard's issuance date. The new standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. The Company is assessing whether the new standard will have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation, which outlines improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The new standard impacts certain aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statements of cash flows. ASU No. 2016-09, as issued, will be effective on January 1, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company is continuing to evaluate this guidance; however, the Company does not expect its adoption will have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230). The new guidance is intended to reduce the existing diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The core principle of the ASU requires the classification of eight specific issues identified under ASC 230 to be presented as either financing, investing or operating, or some combination thereof, depending upon the nature of the issue. ASU 2016-15 will be effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. Entities are required to use a retrospective transition approach for all of the issues identified to each period presented. The Company has not yet evaluated and cannot determine the impact this standard will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Dispositions included in discontinued operations
In line with the Company's adoption of the accounting standard governing discontinued operations during the year ended December 31, 2014, only disposals representing a strategic shift that have (or will have) a major effect on results and operations would qualify as discontinued operations. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company completed a number of transactions representing a strategic shift that will have a major effect on the results and operations of the Company.
Student housing platform disposition
On June 21, 2016, the Company completed the sale of its student housing platform, University House. The Agreement's sale price was $1,410,000. On the closing date, the Company received net cash consideration, after transaction costs, closing adjustments, payoff of certain debts, and assumption of certain debts by the buyer, of approximately $845,000, $9,900 of which was deposited into escrow and relates to post closing obligations, $8,000 of which is being held pending resolution in connection with the completion of a development property as of September 30, 2016. The Company sold one student housing asset separately from the sale of its student housing platform for a gross disposition price of $33,350 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016.
For the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recorded a gain on sale related to one student housing asset sold separately from the sale of its student housing platform of $10,494, which is included in discontinued operations.

The 17 student housing assets included in the student housing platform sale and the one student housing asset sold during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 have been classified as discontinued operations as the student housing platform sale represented a strategic shift away from its student housing portfolio and has had a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results.

The joint venture is known as 15th & Walnut Owner, LLC ("Eugene"). On February 25, 2016, GE purchased the Company's partnership interest in the joint venture. This joint venture has been classified as a discontinued operation as the student housing platform sale represented a strategic shift away from its student housing portfolio and has had a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results. A gain on the sale of the joint venture of $1,434 was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and is included as part of discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

(a) | On September 30, 2015, the Company was admitted as a member to Downtown Railyard Venture, LLC ("DRV"), which is a joint venture established in order to develop and sell a land development. Simultaneously, the Company structured and closed the sale of a non-core land development to DRV, which for accounting purposes is treated as a contribution of the land development to DRV in exchange for an equity interest of $46,174 in DRV (the foregoing transaction is referred to as the "Railyards Transaction"). The Company recorded a loss of $12,919 on the Railyards Transaction during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 due to the difference between the carrying value of the land and the fair value of the equity interest. The Company's ownership percentage in DRV is based upon a waterfall calculation outlined in the operating agreement. |
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded no impairment on its unconsolidated entities.
On February 4, 2013, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with GE in order to develop, construct and manage a student housing community. On February 25, 2016, GE purchased the Company's partnership interest in the joint venture. A gain on the sale of the joint venture of $1,434 was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and is included as part of discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) as the Company's exit from the student housing market is a strategic shift that has had a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results.

6. Investment in Marketable Securities
Investment in marketable securities of $181,879 and $177,431 at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, consists primarily of preferred and common stock investments in other REITs and certain real estate related bonds which are classified as available-for-sale securities and recorded at fair value. The cost basis, net of impairments, of available-for-sale securities was $136,029 and $138,318 as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. The Company's investment in marketable securities includes an approximately 5% ownership of the outstanding common stock of Xenia. The Company held an investment in Xenia securities reported at its fair value of $86,069 and $86,919 as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. The cost basis of the Xenia securities held by the Company was $80,748 as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, which is equal to 5% of the net equity, at historical cost basis, contributed to Xenia at the time of the Xenia spin-off.
Unrealized holding gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of comprehensive income until realized. The Company has net accumulated other comprehensive income related to its marketable securities portfolio of $45,850 and $39,113, which includes gross unrealized losses of $546 and $2,242 related to its marketable securities as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. Securities with gross unrealized losses have a related fair value of $2,977 and $10,712 as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. The unrealized gain on the Xenia securities held by the Company was $5,321 and $6,171 as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.
The Company's policy for assessing recoverability of its available-for-sale securities is to record a charge against net earnings when the Company determines that the fair value of a security drops below the cost basis and believes that decline to be other-than-temporary. Factors in the assessment of other-than-temporary impairment include determining whether (1) the Company has the ability and intent to hold the security until it recovers, and (2) the length of time and degree to which the security's price has declined. An other-than-temporary impairment to available-for-sale securities of $1,327 was recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. There was no impairment to available-for-sale securities recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.
During the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, dividend income of $2,650 and $2,390, respectively, was recognized and is included in interest and dividend income on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

Some of the mortgage loans require compliance with certain covenants, such as debt service coverage ratios, investment restrictions and distribution limitations. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all mortgage loan requirements except one loan with a carrying value of $3,151, which matures in 2016. This loan is not cross-collateralized with any other mortgage loans and is not recourse to the Company.
Term loan and line of credit
On November 5, 2015, the Company entered into a term loan credit agreement for a $300,000 unsecured credit facility with a syndicate of seven lenders led by Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith, Incorporated and PNC Capital Markets LLC as joint lead arrangers. The accordion feature allows the Company to increase the size of the unsecured term loan credit facility to $600,000, subject to certain conditions.
The term loan credit facility consists of two tranches: a five-year tranche maturing on January 15, 2021, and a seven-year tranche maturing on November 5, 2022. The credit facility can be drawn for one year from the agreement date, after which the unused portion of the credit facility will terminate. The credit facility is subject to maintenance of certain financial covenants. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants and default provisions under the credit agreement. Interest rates are based on the Company's total leverage ratio. Based upon the Company's total leverage ratios at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the five-year tranche bears an interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.30% and the seven-year tranche bears an interest rate of 1-month LIBOR plus 1.60%.

The unsecured revolving line of credit matures on February 2, 2019 and contains one twelve-month extension option that the Company may exercise upon payment of an extension fee equal to 0.15% of the commitment amount on the maturity date and subject to certain other conditions. The unsecured revolving line of credit bears interest at a rate equal to 1-month LIBOR plus 1.40% and requires the maintenance of certain financial covenants. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants and default provisions under the credit agreement. The Company had $300,000 and $300,000 available under the revolving line of credit as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

8. Fair Value Measurements
In accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures, the Company defines fair value based on the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company uses a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which are described below:
• | Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access. |
• | Level 2 – Observable inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. |
• | Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs. |
The Company has estimated the fair value of its financial and non-financial instruments using available market information and valuation methodologies the Company believes to be appropriate for these purposes. Considerable judgment and a high degree of subjectivity are involved in developing these estimates and, accordingly, they are not necessarily indicative of amounts that would be realized upon disposition.

Level 1
At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the fair value of the available-for-sale real estate equity securities has been valued based upon quoted market prices for the same or similar issues when current quoted market prices were available. Unrealized gains or losses on investment are reflected in unrealized gain (loss) on investment securities in comprehensive income on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
Level 2
To calculate the fair value of the real estate related bonds and the derivative interest rate instruments, the Company primarily uses quoted prices for similar securities and contracts. For the real estate related bonds, the Company reviews price histories for similar market transactions. For the derivative interest rate instruments, the Company uses inputs based on data that is observed in the forward yield curve which is widely observable in the marketplace. The Company also incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparties’ nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements which utilizes Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads. However, as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives. As a result, the Company determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had outstanding interest rate swap agreements with a notional value of $150,000 and $157,000, respectively.
Level 3
At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had no Level 3 recurring fair value measurements.
Nonrecurring Measurements
The following table summarizes activity for the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The Company recognized certain impairment charges to reflect the investments at their fair values for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. The asset groups that were reflected at fair value through this evaluation are:

Investment properties, continuing operations
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company identified certain assets which may have a reduction in the expected holding period and reviewed the probability of these properties' disposition. The Company's estimated fair value relating to the investment assets' impairment analysis was based on purchase contracts and ten-year discounted cash flow models, which includes contractual revenues and unobservable inputs such as forecasted revenues and expenses. These unobservable inputs are based on market conditions and the Company's expected growth rates.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, capitalization rates ranging from 6.00% to 7.00% and discount rates ranging from 7.00% to 8.00% were utilized in the model and are based upon observable rates that the Company believes to be within a reasonable range of current market rates. For the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recorded a provision for asset impairment of $2,818 in continuing operations on one retail asset based on a discounted cash flow analysis. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recorded a provision for asset impairment of $41,139 in continuing operations on three retail assets and one non-core asset based on purchase contracts and discounted cash flow analysis.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company completed the Railyards Transaction. See joint venture disclosure in "Note 5. Investment in Partially Owned Entities". The Company’s estimated fair value relating to the investment property's impairment analysis was based on a third party independent appraisal obtained as of September 30, 2015. The appraisal utilized a twelve-year discounted cash flow model, which includes inflows and outflows over a specific holding period. The cash flows consist of unobservable inputs such as forecasted revenues and expenses. These unobservable inputs are based on market conditions and expected growth rates. A discount rate of 14% was utilized in the model and is based upon observable rates within a reasonable range of current market rates. It was determined the property was impaired and therefore was written down to fair value. The Company recorded an impairment charge of $92,167 on this property for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.
Investment properties, discontinued operations
As discussed in "Note 1. Organization", the Company completed the Highlands spin-off on April 28, 2016. In connection with the Highlands spin-off, the Company evaluated Highlands as a disposal group for impairment. The Company's estimated fair value relating to the disposal group's impairment analysis was based on 10-year discounted cash flow models, which includes contractual inflows and outflows over a specific holding period. The cash flows consist of observable inputs such as contractual revenues and unobservable inputs forecasted revenues and expenses. These unobservable inputs are based on market conditions and the Company's expected growth rates.
As of the spin date, capitalization rates ranging from 6.75% to 10.00% and discount rates ranging from 7.75% to 15.25% were utilized in the model and were based upon observable rates that the Company believes to be within a reasonable range of current market rates. Based on this analysis, the Company recorded an impairment related to the Highlands spin-off of $76,583 in discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as the net book value of the disposal group exceeded its fair value.
There was no impairment recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 for investment properties included in discontinued operations on the statement of operations and comprehensive income.
Financial Instruments Not Measured at Fair Value
The table below represents the fair value of financial instruments presented at carrying values in the Company's consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

The Company estimates the fair value of its mortgages payable using a weighted average effective market interest rate of 5.10% per annum. The fair value estimate of the line of credit and term loan approximates the carrying value due to limited market volatility in pricing. The assumptions reflect the terms currently available on similar borrowing terms to borrowers with credit profiles similar to the Company's. The Company has determined that its debt instrument valuations are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
9. Income Taxes
The Company has elected and has operated so as to qualify to be taxed as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), commencing with the tax year ended December 31, 2005. So long as it qualifies as a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax on taxable income that is distributed currently to stockholders. A REIT is subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements including a requirement that it currently distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income (subject to certain adjustments and excluding capital gains) to its stockholders each year. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, without the benefit of certain relief provisions, the Company will be subject to federal and state income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates and would not be able to re-elect REIT status during the four years following the year of the failure. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income, property or net worth and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income.
On December 15, 2015, MB REIT redeemed all of the outstanding shares of its Series B Preferred Stock and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of InvenTrust. At that time, MB REIT became a Qualified REIT Subsidiary ("QRS") of the Company and ceased to be treated as a separate REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a QRS, MB REIT was disregarded as a separate entity from the Company for federal income tax purposes. All assets, liabilities and items of income, deduction and credit of MB REIT were treated for federal income tax purposes as those of the Company. MB REIT was included in the Highlands spin-off as described in "Note 4. Disposed Properties." From December 15, 2015 through the date of the Highlands spin-off, the Company included all items of income, deduction, and credit of MB REIT.
The Company has elected to treat certain of its consolidated subsidiaries, and may in the future elect to treat certain newly formed subsidiaries, as taxable REIT subsidiaries pursuant to the Code. Taxable REIT subsidiaries may participate in non-real estate related activities (whether or not a REIT could engage in such activities) and/or perform non-customary services for tenants and are subject to federal and state income tax at regular corporate tax rates. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company's hotels were leased to certain of the Company's taxable REIT subsidiaries. Lease revenue from these taxable REIT subsidiaries and the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries is eliminated in consolidation.
For the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, an income tax expense of $286 and $1,556, respectively, was included in continuing operations on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, an income tax expense of $480 and $2,402, respectively, was included in continuing operations on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
For the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, income tax expense of $90 and benefit of $1,159, respectively, was included in net income from discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, income tax expense of $279 and $1,030, respectively, was included in net income from discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

10. Earnings per Share and Equity Transactions
Basic earnings per share ("EPS") are computed using the two-class method by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period (the "common shares"). Diluted EPS is computed using the treasury method if more dilutive, by dividing net income by the common shares plus potential common shares issuable upon exercising options or other contracts. The following table reconciles the amounts used in calculating basic and diluted income per share (in thousands, except weighted average share and per share amounts):

11. Stock-Based Compensation
Share Unit Plans
During 2014, the Company adopted the following three long-term incentive plans: (1) the Inland American Real Estate Trust, Inc. 2014 Share Unit Plan (the "Retail Plan"), with respect to the Company's retail business; (2) the Xenia Hotels & Resorts, Inc. 2014 Share Unit Plan (the "Lodging Plan"), with respect to the Company's lodging business; and (3) the Inland American Communities Group, Inc. 2014 Share Unit Plan (the "Student Housing Plan"), with respect to the Company's student housing business (collectively, the "Share Unit Plans"). Each Share Unit Plan provides for the grant of "share unit" awards to eligible participants. The value of a "share unit" was determined based on a phantom capitalization of the Company's retail/non-core business, lodging business and student housing business, and does not necessarily correspond to the value of a share of common stock of the Company, Xenia or Inland American Communities Group, Inc. (University House Communities Group, Inc.), as applicable. Vesting of the share units is conditioned upon the occurrence of a triggering event, such as a listing or a change in control of the applicable business, and if no triggering event occurs within five years following the applicable grant date, then the share units are forfeited. The Company does not recognize share-based compensation expense with respect to the Share Unit Plans until the occurrence of a triggering event.
As of February 3, 2015, the share units outstanding under the Lodging Plan were included in the Xenia spin-off.
As of June 19, 2015, in connection with the adoption of the Incentive Award Plan (as defined below), the Company terminated the Retail Plan. Awards outstanding as of June 19, 2015 with a grant date value of $7,845 under the Retail Plan will remain

outstanding and subject to the terms of the Retail Plan and the applicable award agreement. No additional awards will be granted under the Retail Plan.
The closing of the student housing platform sale on June 21, 2016 was a triggering event under the Student Housing Plan. As of June 20, 2016, share unit awards granted in 2016, 2015 and 2014 with an aggregate vested value of $2,246, $1,796 and $833, respectively, were outstanding under the Student Housing Plan, and were paid as part of the closing of the student housing platform sale and recorded as an offset of the gain on the student housing platform sale, which was included in discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Share unit awards vested under the Student Housing Plan during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 with an aggregate value of $313 are included in continuing operations on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
As a triggering event had not occurred with respect to the Company's retail business, the Company did not recognize stock-based compensation expense related to the Retail Plan for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015.
Incentive Award Plan
Effective as of June 19, 2015, the Company's board of directors adopted and approved the InvenTrust Properties Corp. 2015 Incentive Award Plan (the "Incentive Award Plan"), under which the Company may grant cash and equity incentive awards to eligible employees, directors, and consultants. Under the Incentive Award Plan, the Company is authorized to grant up to 30,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock pursuant to awards under the plan. At September 30, 2016, 26,523,304 shares were available for future issuance under the Incentive Award Plan. A summary of the Company's restricted stock unit activity as of September 30, 2016 is as follows:
Number of Restricted Stock Units | Weighted Average Price at Grant Date | |||
Outstanding at January 1, 2016 | 951,555 | $4.00 | ||
Restricted stock units granted | 2,334,226 | 3.14 | ||
Restricted stock units vested, granted in 2015 | (8,489 | ) | 4.00 | |
Restricted stock units vested, granted in 2016 | (9,969 | ) | 3.14 | |
Restricted stock units forfeited, granted in 2015 | (179,608 | ) | 4.00 | |
Restricted stock units forfeited, granted in 2016 | (258,172 | ) | 3.14 | |
Outstanding at September 30, 2016 | 2,829,543 | $3.37 |
At September 30, 2016, there was $7,112 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock-based compensation arrangements granted under the Incentive Award Plan. The restricted stock units outstanding as of September 30, 2016 have vesting schedules through December 2017 or 2018, as applicable. Stock-based compensation expense will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $1,247 and $2,583 related to the Incentive Award Plan for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $1,123 and $1,260 related to the Incentive Award Plan for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively.

12. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject, from time to time, to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes, based on currently available information, that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations or liquidity of the Company.
The Company is party to personal injury lawsuits from time to time. These lawsuits and any resulting damages are generally covered by the Company's insurance policies. However, on October 6, 2016, the Company's insurance carrier served the Company with a reservation of rights letter alleging that insurance coverage will not be provided for certain damages that could be awarded at the trial of one pending lawsuit. The Company believes the position of the insurer is not supported by any evidence and intends to vigorously contest any denial of insurance coverage. While management does not believe that an adverse outcome, if any, in this lawsuit would have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, there can be no assurance that an adverse outcome would not have a material effect on the Company's results of operations for any particular period. The Company is unable to estimate the effect of this lawsuit and therefore has not recorded an estimate as of September 30, 2016 on the consolidated balance sheets or the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015.
13. Subsequent Events
Distribution Rate
Effective for the quarterly distribution paid in October 2016, the Company reduced its annual distribution rate from $0.13 per share of common stock to $0.0675 per share of common stock. The adjustment to the distribution rate equates to a 2016 calendar year total distribution of $0.09875 per share (an annual rate of $0.13 per share through June 30, 2016 and an annual rate of $0.0675 per share from July 1, 2016 to year-end). Distributions were paid on October 6, 2016 to each stockholder of record on September 30, 2016 in the amount of $0.016875 per share.
Tender Offer
On October 27, 2016, the Company commenced a modified "Dutch Auction" self-tender offer to purchase for cash up to
$200 million in value of shares of its common stock. In accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the offer to purchase and letter of transmittal, the Company will select the lowest price, which will not exceed $2.94 nor be less than $2.45 per share, net to the seller in cash, less any applicable withholding of taxes and without interest, that will enable the Company to purchase up to the maximum number of shares of common stock having an aggregate purchase price not exceeding $200 million. The tender offer is scheduled to expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 28, 2016, unless the offer is extended or withdrawn.
Acquisitions
Subsequent to September 30, 2016, the Company acquired Northcross Commons in Huntersville, North Carolina on October 14, 2016. This retail community center consists of approximately 63,000 square feet and was purchased at a gross acquisition price of $31.0 million.
Dispositions
Subsequent to September 30, 2016, the Company disposed of, at a gain of approximately $13.9 million, four retail assets consisting of a combined 158,000 square feet for an aggregate gross disposition price of $36.6 million.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Certain statements in this "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and elsewhere in this quarterly report, other than purely historical information, are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements include statements about InvenTrust Properties Corp.’s plans, objectives, strategies, financial performance and outlook, trends, the amount and timing of future cash distributions, prospects or future events and involve known and unknown risks that are difficult to predict. As a result, our actual financial results, performance, achievements or prospects may differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the use of words such as "may," "could," "expect," "intend," "plan," "seek," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "guidance," "predict," "potential," "continue," "likely," "will," "would," "illustrative" and variations of these terms and similar expressions, or the negative of these terms or similar expressions. Such forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by us based on our knowledge and understanding of the business and industry, are inherently uncertain. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, and stockholders should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

Overview
We have been implementing our strategy of focusing our portfolio as described in more detail below under "Highlights for the nine months ended September 30, 2016" and "Recent Activities." As of September 30, 2016, we own 73 retail properties representing 12.2 million square feet of retail space. We also own one non-core property as of September 30, 2016.
On a consolidated basis, substantially all of our revenues and cash flows from operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 were generated by collecting rental payments from our tenants, distributions from unconsolidated entities and dividend income earned from investments in marketable securities. Our largest cash expenses relate to the operation of our properties and the interest expense on our mortgages. Our property operating expenses include, but are not limited to: real estate taxes; regular repair and maintenance; utilities; and insurance (some of which are recoverable).
In evaluating our financial condition and operating performance, management focuses on the following financial and non-financial indicators, discussed in further detail herein:
• | Funds from Operations ("FFO"), a supplemental non-GAAP (U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or "GAAP") measure to net income determined in accordance with GAAP; |
• | Property net operating income ("NOI"), which excludes interest expense, depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, net income of noncontrolling interest, and other investment income from corporate investments; |
• | Modified net operating income, which reflects the income from operations excluding lease termination income and GAAP rent adjustments; |
• | Cash flow from operations as determined in accordance with GAAP; |
• | Economic and physical occupancy and rental rates; |
• | Leasing activity and lease rollover; |
• | Management of operating expenses; |
• | Management of general and administrative expenses; |
• | Debt maturities and leverage ratios; and |
• | Liquidity levels. |

Highlights for the nine months ended September 30, 2016
Spin-Off of Highlands REIT, Inc.
On April 28, 2016, we completed the spin-off of our subsidiary, Highlands REIT, Inc. ("Highlands"), which we formed to hold substantially all of our remaining non-core assets, through the pro rata taxable distribution of 100% of the outstanding common stock of Highlands to holders of record of our common stock as of the close of business on the record date, which was April 25, 2016 (referred to herein as the "Highlands spin-off"). Each holder of record of our common stock received one share of Highlands' common stock for every one share of our common stock held at the close of business on the record date. Highlands did not list its common stock on any securities exchange or other market in connection with the spin-off.
In connection with the Highlands spin-off, we entered into a Separation and Distribution Agreement with Highlands to effect the separation and to provide for the allocation of assets and liabilities. Highlands’ real property assets consisted of seven single- and multi-tenant office assets, two industrial assets, six retail assets, two correctional facilities, four parcels of unimproved land and one bank branch. Highlands assumed all liabilities relating to or arising out of these assets (excluding any liabilities relating to the properties previously owned and disposed by subsidiaries of Highlands prior to the spin-off). In the Highlands spin-off, we disposed of net assets of $151.1 million as of April 28, 2016. We also entered into certain agreements with Highlands that, among other things, provide a framework for the relationship between InvenTrust Properties Corp. and Highlands as two separate companies, namely a Transition Services Agreement and an Employee Matters Agreement.
Sale of Student Housing Platform
On June 21, 2016, we completed the sale of our student housing platform, University House, to UHC Acquisition Sub LLC (the "Acquiror"), a subsidiary of a joint venture formed between Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, GIC and Scion Communities Investors LLC, pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement"), dated as of January 3, 2016, by and among the Company, University House Communities Group, Inc. and the Acquiror, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement, dated as of May 30, 2016, and as further amended by that certain Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement, dated as of June 20, 2016. The Agreement's gross sales price was $1.41 billion. Under the terms of the Agreement, the final net proceeds were determined at the closing of the transaction following the determination of several events and closing considerations. Following certain adjustments and the repayment of related debt, in each case pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, we received at the closing net cash consideration, after transaction costs, of approximately $845 million, $9.9 million of which was deposited into escrow and relates to post closing obligations, $8.0 million of which is being held pending resolution in connection with the completion of a development property as of September 30, 2016.
Joint Venture Activity
On February 25, 2016, our partner in a student housing joint venture purchased our partnership interest in the joint venture, a joint venture that has since been classified as a discontinued operation. A gain on the termination of this student housing joint venture of $1.4 million was recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 as a part of income from discontinued operations.
In addition, we received nonrecurring distributions that are in excess of two joint venture investments' carrying value by $4.0 million and $4.6 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively.
Acquisitions
During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we acquired six retail assets for an aggregate gross acquisition price of approximately $401.6 million and assumed mortgage debt of $16.0 million on one acquisition as a part of non-cash financing activities.
Dispositions
During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we disposed of one non-core asset, one student housing asset, twenty-four retail assets, and the student housing platform of 17 assets for an aggregate gross disposition price of approximately $1,887.6 million and generated net proceeds from these sales of approximately $1,533.5 million.

Recent Activities
Distribution Rate
On September 19, 2016, our board approved a reduction to the Company's annual distribution rate from $0.13 per share of common stock to $0.0675 per share of common stock, effective for the quarterly distribution paid in October 2016. Our board considered a number of factors in establishing our new distribution rate and expects to evaluate our distribution rate on a quarterly basis as we execute on our retail strategy. See "- Outlook" and "- Distributions" for more information.
Tender Offer
On October 27, 2016, we commenced a modified "Dutch Auction" self-tender offer to purchase for cash up to $200 million in value of shares of our common stock. In accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the offer to purchase and letter of transmittal, we will select the lowest price, which will not exceed $2.94 nor be less than $2.45 per share, net to the seller in cash, less any applicable withholding of taxes and without interest, that will enable us to purchase up to the maximum number of shares of common stock having an aggregate purchase price not exceeding $200 million. The tender offer is scheduled to expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 28, 2016, unless the offer is extended or withdrawn. See "-Liquidity and Capital Resources" for more information.
Acquisitions
On October 14, 2016, we acquired Northcross Commons in Huntersville, North Carolina. This retail community center consists of approximately 63,000 square feet and was purchased at a gross acquisition price of $31.0 million.
Dispositions
Subsequent to September 30, 2016, we disposed of, at a gain of approximately $13.9 million, four retail assets consisting of a combined 158,000 square feet for an aggregate gross disposition price of $36.6 million.
Outlook
We believe that the fundamentals in the retail segment continue to be favorable in our target markets and support our disciplined capital recycling model. Our grocer-anchored and necessity-based community and neighborhood centers bring consumers to our well-located properties, while our larger-format power center retailers continue to adapt their business models to embrace e-commerce and appeal to the consumer's continuing value focus. We see ongoing retailer demand for well-located grocer-anchored and power center assets, further supporting our key market approach. With limited new development and controlled retailer expansion, we believe retail rental rates in our target markets will continue to show improvement.
As we execute our portfolio strategy through the end of 2016 and into 2017, we expect our occupancy rate will increase, driving slight to modest rental income growth across the platform. We have also launched a coordinated program to increase rental income by maximizing re-development opportunities and identifying sites in our current retail portfolio where we can develop pad sites. In addition, we are working with our tenant partners to expand rentable square footage at select properties where demand warrants. The retail rental market continues to show strength and our leasing staff is capitalizing on this by leasing space at favorable rates, while establishing a more favorable tenant mix and identifying complementary uses to maximize tenant performance at our properties. Our property management team is focused on maintaining strong tenant relationships, controlling expenses, and providing an enhanced consumer shopping experience. We continue to implement a property branding program to leverage our market presence in our core markets.
Following our transition to self-management, we have made a significant commitment to enhancing our operational leadership team with key senior hires in most operational areas of the Company. We continue to make meaningful investments in technology, including enhancements to our data and reporting systems. In addition, as we continue to execute on our disciplined acquisition and disposition program, we continue the expansion of regional offices. In 2016, we opened regional offices in Orlando, Florida; Raleigh, North Carolina; Austin, Texas and La Palma, California.
While our portfolio is geographically diverse, approximately 39% of our retail platform is located in Texas and Oklahoma. While the energy sector continues to be depressed, to date, we have not experienced a negative impact with respect to our retailers in these markets. Prolonged lower oil prices, however, may negatively impact the economy in Texas, in particular, Houston, where we have several properties. Although the duration of the energy downturn is uncertain, we believe that the long term nature of the retail leases, combined with the national platform of most anchor or big box retailers, mitigates any short- to
36
medium-term impact these retailers may experience. We continue to closely monitor the performance of retailers in these markets.
We continue to execute on our key markets strategy of focusing on high job and high population growth markets. Currently, we view our retail portfolio as consisting of strategic and non-strategic assets. At this time, approximately one third of our 73 wholly owned retail and 15 IAGM Retail Fund I, LLC ("IAGM") joint venture retail assets are considered non-strategic. We are opportunistically selling these non-strategic retail properties and exiting markets that are low growth, lack sufficient asset concentration and do not provide a favorable opportunity to build significant concentration. We currently operate in up to 35 markets. However, as we continue to execute on our strategy, the number of our markets will decrease. This will serve to hone our strategy and provide capital that can be redeployed into our target retail markets.
Our disposition activity, including the sale of our student housing platform in June 2016 and ongoing sales of non-strategic retail assets, has caused and could continue to cause us to experience dilution in operating performance during the period we dispose of properties. We are redeploying a portion of the sales proceeds into select multi-tenant retail assets and intend to continue to do so during the remainder of 2016, which we believe will enhance the overall value of our platform. The dilution associated with the sale of the student housing platform will continue until the sales proceeds are reinvested.
Our board and management team continue to execute on allocating the proceeds from the sale of our student housing platform by investing in premier retail multi-tenant assets in our target markets with job and population growth, reducing debt and, in late October, launching a "Dutch Auction" tender offer to repurchase shares in order to provide stockholders with another liquidity opportunity. See "- Liquidity and Capital Resources" for more information.
We believe that our debt maturities over the next five years are manageable, and while we anticipate interest rates will rise over the long term, we expect low interest rates to prevail through the remainder of 2016. We will fund our distributions with cash flows from operations as well as from unconsolidated entities and a portion of the proceeds from our property sales.
On September 19, 2016, our board approved a reduction to the Company's annual distribution rate effective for the quarterly distribution paid in October 2016. In establishing the new distribution rate, our board considered a number of factors as described in "- Distributions." As we execute on our retail strategy, our board expects to evaluate our distribution rate on a quarterly basis and, if the board deems appropriate, adjust the rate to take into account our progress in refining and balancing our retail portfolio with stable income producing grocery-anchored properties and open-air power centers, with higher potential income growth, in our target strategic markets.
We believe that the continuing refinement of our retail portfolio, which we anticipate completing over the next 18 to 24 months, will position us for future success, maximize long-term value for stockholders, and put us in a position to evaluate and execute on strategic transactions aimed at achieving liquidity for our stockholders.

Results of Operations
Consolidated Results of Operations
This section describes and compares our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. We generate most of our net income from property operations. In order to evaluate our overall portfolio, management analyzes the operating performance of all properties from period to period and properties we have owned and operated for the same period during each year. Investment properties owned for the entire three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 are referred to herein as "same store" properties. Unless otherwise noted, all dollar amounts are stated in thousands (except per share amounts and per square foot amounts).

Our net income from continuing operations of $28.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was primarily driven by a gain on sale of investment properties of $29.6 million on six retail properties not included in discontinued operations and was offset by a provision for asset impairment of $2.8 million on one retail property. We also recognized an other than temporary impairment on one marketable security of $1.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016. Our net income of $37.3 million was primarily driven by these factors as well as a gain on sale of one student housing asset included in discontinued operations of $10.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016.
Our net loss from continuing operations of $100.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was primarily driven by a provision for asset impairment of $92.2 million related to a non-core land development contributed to the Downtown Railyard Venture during the three months ended September 30, 2015. On September 30, 2015, the Company was admitted as a member to Downtown Railyard Venture, LLC ("DRV"), which is a joint venture established in order to develop and sell a land development. Simultaneously, the Company structured and closed the sale of a non-core land development to DRV, which for accounting purposes is treated as a contribution of the land development to DRV in exchange for an equity interest in DRV (the foregoing transaction is referred to as the "Railyards Transaction"). Our contribution to this joint venture resulted in a loss of $12.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015 due to the difference between the carrying value of the land and the fair value of the retained equity interest in the joint venture. Our net loss of $95.6 million was primarily driven by these factors as well as net income from properties classified as discontinued operations of $5.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015.
Our net income from continuing operations of $62.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was primarily driven by the gain on sale of investment properties of $106.0 million on 24 retail properties not included in discontinued operations and was offset by a provision for asset impairment of $41.1 million on three retail properties and one non-core property. We also recognized an other than temporary impairment on one marketable security of $1.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Our net income of $226.4 million was driven by these factors as well as the gain on sale of the student housing platform of $235.8 million and was offset by the provision for asset impairment recorded as part of the April 28, 2016 Highlands spin-off of $76.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.
Our net loss from continuing operations of $48.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was primarily driven by a provision for asset impairment of $92.2 million and a loss on contribution to joint venture of $12.9 million, both as a result of the Railyards Transaction, as described earlier. These decreases were offset by the recognition in equity in earnings of $11.9 million from the sale of assets within two joint ventures. Furthermore, we also recognized the receipt of nonrecurring distributions in excess of two investments' carrying value by $17.6 million in equity in earnings of unconsolidated entities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. We also recognized a gain on sale of marketable securities of $20.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Our net loss of $27.8 million was primarily driven by these factors and was offset by the income from discontinued operations of $21.1 million, which included one month of Xenia activity, during the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Property Income and Operating Expenses
Rental income consists of basic monthly rent, straight-line rent adjustments, amortization of acquired above and below market leases, other property income, and percentage rental income recorded pursuant to tenant leases. Tenant recovery income consists of reimbursements for real estate taxes, common area maintenance costs, management fees, and insurance costs. Other property income consists of lease termination fees and other miscellaneous property income. Property operating expenses consist of regular repair and maintenance, management fees, utilities, and insurance (some of which are recoverable from the tenant).
• | Property income decreased $5.5 million and $11.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2015 largely as a result of the sale of 36 assets since September 30, 2015 that did not qualify as discontinued operations and was offset by the purchase of eight retail assets since September 30, 2015. |
• | Property operating expenses decreased $0.8 million and $4.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively, compared to the same period in 2015 also as a result of the sale of 36 assets since September 30, 2015 that did not qualify as discontinued operations and was offset by the purchase of eight retail assets since September 30, 2015. |
Provision for asset impairment
• | During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, we identified certain properties which may have a reduction in the expected holding period and reviewed the probability that we would dispose of these assets. As a result of our analysis, we identified two retail assets during the first quarter of 2016, one non-core asset during the second quarter 2016, and one retail asset during the third quarter of 2016 that we determined were impaired and subsequently written down to fair value. Therefore, we recorded a provision for asset impairment of $2.8 million and $41.1 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. |
• | During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded a provision for asset impairment of $92.2 million related to the Railyards Transaction. |
General and administrative expenses
• | During the three months ended September 30, 2016, general and administrative expenses decreased $3.0 million, from $15.4 million at September 30, 2015 to $12.4 million at September 30, 2016. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, general and administrative expenses decreased $11.2 million, from $52.5 million at September 30, 2015 to $41.2 million at September 30, 2016. These decreases are primarily a result of the elimination of certain positions during the first quarter of 2015 and the second quarter of 2016. |

Loss on contribution to joint venture
• | On September 30, 2015, we completed the Railyards Transaction. We recognized a loss of $12.9 million on the Railyards Transaction due to the difference between the carrying value of the land and the fair value of the retained equity interest in the joint venture for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015. |
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated entities
Our equity in earnings of unconsolidated entities includes our share of the unconsolidated entity's operating income or loss. Also included in this amount are any one-time adjustments associated with the transactions of the unconsolidated entity.
• | For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, equity in earnings of $3.8 million and $7.7 million, respectively, reflected our share of our unconsolidated entities' operating income and losses, including the receipt of distributions in excess of two joint venture investments' carrying value of $4.0 million and $4.6 million, respectively. |
• | For the three months ended September 30, 2015, equity in earnings of unconsolidated entities of $5.3 million was a result of the receipt of nonrecurring distributions in excess of two investments' carrying value by $4.6 million in equity in earnings of unconsolidated entities and our share of our unconsolidated entities' operating income and losses. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, equity in earnings of unconsolidated entities of $33.3 million was primarily a result of the recognition in equity in earnings of $11.9 million from the sale of assets within two joint ventures, recognition of the receipt of nonrecurring distributions in excess of two investments' carrying value by $17.6 million, and our share of our unconsolidated entities' operating income and losses. |
(Impairment) and realized gain on sale of marketable securities, net
• | For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, impairment and realized (gain) on sale of marketable securities, net, was $1.3 million and $0.7 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, we recorded an other than temporary impairment on one marketable security of $1.3 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we recognized a gain on sale of marketable securities of $0.6 million. |
• | For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recognized a net realized gain of $0.3 million and $20.5 million, respectively, as a result of sales. |

Net income from discontinued operations
In line with our adoption of the accounting standard governing discontinued operations, ASU 2014-08, only disposals representing a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on our results and operations would qualify as discontinued operations.
The operations reflected in discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 include the 17 student housing assets included in the student housing platform sale, the unconsolidated student housing joint venture sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the l8 assets and four parcels of unimproved land included in the Highlands spin-off, one non-core asset sold in second quarter 2016 and one student housing asset sold in third quarter 2016. The operations of 46 assets included in the Xenia spin-off are also reflected in discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015. All other retail asset disposals are included as a component of income from continuing operations.
Income from discontinued operations was $9.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, compared to $5.0 million for the same period in 2015, an increase of $4.1 million. This increase is primarily a result of the gain on sale of $10.5 million from the sale of one student housing asset during third quarter 2016. Income from discontinued operations was $163.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, compared to $21.1 million for the same period in 2015, an increase of $142.5 million. These increases were primarily the result of the gain on the sale of the student housing platform of $235.8 million and was offset by the provision for asset impairment recorded as part of the Highlands spin-off of $76.6 million.
In connection with the Highlands spin-off, we evaluated Highlands as a disposal group for impairment. The Company's estimated fair value relating to the disposal group's impairment analysis was based on 10-year discounted cash flow models, which includes contractual inflows and outflows over a specific holding period. The cash flows consist of observable inputs such as contractual revenues and unobservable inputs forecasted revenues and expenses. These unobservable inputs are based on market conditions and our expected growth rates. As of the spin date, capitalization rates ranging from 6.75% to 10.00% and discount rates ranging from 7.75% to 15.25% were utilized in the model and are based upon observable rates that we believe to be within a reasonable range of current market rates. Based on this analysis, we recorded an impairment related to the Highlands spin-off of $76.6 million in discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 as the net book value of the disposal group exceeded its fair value.

Portfolio Leasing Results
We have been implementing our strategy of focusing on our remaining retail portfolio, most recently with the Highlands spin-off and the sale of our student housing platform. As a retail company, our strategy will be to tailor and grow our retail platform. Our objective has been, and will continue to be, maximizing stockholder value over the long term. Our retail assets consist solely of multi-tenant retail properties, primarily community and neighborhood centers and power centers.
A significant focus will be to continue to maximize the performance of the portfolio by accretive acquisitions in key markets and select dispositions of properties that are in markets that we do not believe offer the same opportunities for growth. We will support our key market approach by expanding our regional offices and further embedding leasing and operations staff in these respective markets, which we believe will provide us with stronger local market knowledge and enhanced tenant relationships. We intend to continue this focus throughout 2016 as we source acquisitions in key markets.
Performance evaluation
We evaluate performance primarily based on net operating income and modified net operating income. Net operating income excludes interest expense, depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, net income of noncontrolling interest and other investment income from corporate investments. Modified net operating income reflects the income from operations excluding lease termination income and GAAP rent adjustments in order to provide a comparable presentation of operating activity across periods.
The tables contained throughout summarize certain key operating performance measures for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. The rental rates shown are inclusive of rent abatements, lease inducements and straight-line rent GAAP adjustments, and exclusive of tenant improvements and lease commissions. Economic occupancy is defined as the percentage of total gross leasable area ("GLA") for which a tenant is obligated to pay rent under the terms of its lease agreement, regardless of the actual use or occupation by that tenant of the area being leased.
The following table summarizes our retail assets as of September 30, 2016:
Number of Properties | Gross Leasable Area (square feet) | Average Rent Per Square Foot | Average Occupancy | ||||
Community and neighborhood centers | 39 | 3,528,261 | $15.58 | 93% | |||
Power centers | 34 | 8,631,527 | $14.98 | 95% | |||

IAGM Retail Fund I, LLC ("IAGM") Retail joint venture, 55% ownership (b) | 15 | 2,977,768 | $16.45 | 96% | |||
Total number of joint venture and wholly owned retail properties | 88 | 15,137,556 | $15.41 | 95% |
(a) | Wholly owned retail properties are defined as those properties consolidated by the Company and not accounted for as an unconsolidated entity. Unless otherwise noted, all financial measurements relate to wholly owned properties. |
(b) | IAGM is a joint venture partnership between the Company and PGGM Private Real Estate Fund ("PGGM"). The joint venture was formed with the purpose of acquiring and managing retail properties in Texas and Oklahoma and sharing in the profits and losses from those properties and its activities. As of September 30, 2016, IAGM consists of 15 retail assets representing 2,977,768 gross leasable square feet and has economic occupancy of 96%. The Company is responsible for the management and leasing of the retail properties included in the IAGM joint venture. The Company accounts for its investment in the IAGM joint venture using the equity method. These entities are not consolidated by the Company and the equity method of accounting is used to account for these investments. |

Wholly owned and IAGM properties | |||
Economic occupancy (a) | 95% | 94% | |
Annualized base rent per square foot (b) | $15.41 | $14.77 |
(a) | Economic occupancy is defined as the percentage of total gross leasable area for which a tenant is obligated to pay rent under the terms of its lease agreement, regardless of the actual use or occupation by that tenant of the area being leased. Actual use may be less than economic square footage. Prior year economic occupancy excludes properties sold or classified as discontinued operations. |
(b) | Annualized Base Rent (ABR) is computed as revenue for the last month of the period multiplied by twelve months. ABR includes the effect of rent abatements, lease inducements and straight-line rent GAAP adjustments. ABR per square foot is computed as annualized base rent divided by the total occupied square footage at the end of the period. Specialty Leasing is excluded from the ABR and occupied square footage figures when computing the ABR per square foot. Prior year ABR per square foot excludes properties sold or classified as discontinued operations. |
The following table represents lease expirations for our retail assets as of September 30, 2016:

(a) | Specialty leasing represents leases of less than one year in duration for inline space. Examples include retail holiday stores, storage or space used to sell gym memberships. It may also include any term length for a common area space, including but not limited to: tent sales, farmer’s markets, ATMs, cell towers, billboards, and vending. |
We believe the percentage of leases expiring annually over the next five years will allow us to capture an appropriate portion of future market rent increases while allowing us to manage any potential re-leasing risk. For purposes of preparing the table, we have not assumed that contractual lease options contained in certain of our leases and which have not yet been exercised as of September 30, 2016 will in fact be exercised.

(b) | Non-comparable leases are not included in totals. |
As of September 30, 2016, we had GLA totaling 1,130,898 square feet set to expire in the first nine months ended 2016, of which 876,090 was rolled over. This achieved a retention rate of 78%.

Evaluation of Portfolio Performance
In order to evaluate our overall portfolio, management analyzes the operating performance of properties on a same store basis, which is defined as those properties that we have owned and operated for the entirety of both periods being compared. A total of 65 of our investment properties met the same store criteria for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 and 63 of our investment properties met our same store criteria for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. Properties are classified as same store once they have been owned and operated for the entirety of both periods presented and are fully operational. This same store analysis allows management to monitor the operations of our existing properties for comparable periods to determine the effects of our acquisitions and dispositions on net income.
Properties classified as non-same store for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 include properties acquired after September 30, 2015, properties sold in 2016 and 2015 that did not qualify as discontinued operations and our remaining non-core asset.
Same Store Modified Net Operating Income
Certain reclassifications have been made to the statement of operations and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 to conform to the 2016 presentations. These reclassifications primarily represent the classification of salaries and benefits of corporate-level employees and overhead costs from property operating expenses to general and administrative expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and the classification of specialty leasing income from rental income to other property income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.
For the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to the same period in 2015, on a same store basis, modified net operating income increased $0.6 million, or 1.8%. The increase was primarily due to lower bad debt expense of $0.3 million, other non-recoverable repair and maintenance costs of $0.2 million, and lower property insurance costs of $0.08 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 compared to the same period in 2015, on a same store basis, modified net operating income increased $1.1 million, or 1.1%. The increase was primarily due to lower property operating expenses, in which we incurred lower snow removal costs of $0.3 million, lower marketing costs of $0.4 million, and lower property insurance costs of $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.
Total Modified Net Operating Income
For the three months ended September 30, 2016 compared to the same period in 2015, total modified net operating income decreased $5.3 million, or 11.3%. The decrease was due to the sale of 36 assets since third quarter 2015 that did not qualify as discontinued operations.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 compared to the same period in 2015, total modified net operating income decreased $10.5 million, or 7.5%. The decrease was due to the sale of 36 assets since third quarter 2015 that did not qualify as discontinued operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2016, we had $578.7 million of cash and cash equivalents. We continually evaluate the economic and credit environment and its impact on our business. We believe we are appropriately positioned to have significant liquidity to utilize in executing our strategy.
The following table summarizes direct and indirect costs incurred through development, re-development, and leasing activities at the Company’s assets owned during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. These costs are classified as cash used in investment in development projects and capital expenditures and tenant improvements on the consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Short-Term Liquidity and Capital Resources
On a short-term basis, our principal demands for funds are to pay our operating, corporate, and transaction readiness expenses, as well as property capital expenditures, make distributions to our stockholders, and pay interest and principal payments on our current indebtedness. We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements from cash flows from operations, distributions from our joint venture investments and sales from our marketable securities portfolio.
Strategic transactions have reduced our cash flows from operations. On April 28, 2016, we completed the spin-off of Highlands, which held substantially all of the remaining assets included in our non-core segment. In addition, on June 21, 2016, we sold our student housing platform. Each of these transactions is further described in "- Highlights for the nine months ended September 30, 2016." This disposition activity has caused us to experience dilution in our operating performance during the period after we disposed of properties in our student housing platform and prior to reinvestment of the proceeds.
Our board considered the diminished cash flow that resulted from these strategic dispositions, as well as the need to retain cash flow to support our retail capital rotation strategy and pursuit of a lower-levered balance sheet, in establishing a new lower distribution rate, effective for the quarterly distribution paid in October 2016. Our board expects to evaluate our distribution rate on a quarterly basis as we execute on our retail strategy. See "- Distributions" and "- Outlook" for more information.
On October 27, 2016, we commenced a modified “Dutch Auction” self-tender offer to purchase for cash up to $200 million in value of shares of our common stock. In accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the offer to purchase and letter of transmittal, we will select the lowest price, which will not exceed $2.94 nor be less than $2.45 per share, net to the seller in cash, less any applicable withholding of taxes and without interest, that will enable us to purchase up to the maximum number of shares of common stock having an aggregate purchase price not exceeding $200 million. The tender offer is scheduled to expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 28, 2016, unless the offer is extended or withdrawn.
In accordance with rules promulgated by the SEC, we may increase the number of shares accepted for payment in the tender offer by up to 2% of the outstanding shares without amending or extending the tender offer. This could result in the dollar value of the tender offer increasing by up to approximately $42 million assuming a purchase price at the low end of the range or $51 million assuming a purchase price at the high end of the range. All shares purchased by us pursuant to the tender offer will be purchased at the same price. We expect to fund the tender offer with cash on hand.
The above is a summary provided for informational purposes only and is not an offer to buy or the solicitation of an offer to sell any securities of the Company. The full details of the modified "Dutch Auction" tender offer, including complete instructions on how to tender shares, are included in the offer to purchase, the letter of transmittal and other related materials, which we

Long-Term Liquidity and Capital Resources
Following the completion of the Highlands spin-off and the sale of our student housing platform, our objectives are to maximize revenue generated by our existing retail properties, to further enhance the value of our retail segment to produce attractive current yield and long-term risk-adjusted returns to our stockholders and to generate sustainable and predictable cash flow from our operations to distribute to our stockholders. We believe the repositioning and growing of our retail properties will increase our operating cash flows.
Our principal demands for funds have been and will continue to be:
• | to pay our expenses and the operating expenses of our properties; |
• | to make distributions to our stockholders; |
• | to service or pay down our debt; |
• | to fund capital expenditures and leasing related costs; |
• | to invest in properties and portfolios of properties; and |
• | to fund development investments. |
Generally, our cash needs have been and will be funded from:
• | cash flows from our investment properties; |
• | income earned on our investment in marketable securities; |
• | distributions from our joint venture investments; |
• | proceeds from sales of properties and marketable securities; |
• | proceeds from borrowings on properties; and |
• | proceeds from our line of credit. |
We may, from time to time, seek to retire or purchase additional amounts of our outstanding equity and/or debt securities through cash purchases for other securities. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions, and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

Distributions
We declared cash distributions to our stockholders per weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period from January 1, 2016 to September 30, 2016 totaling $70.6 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we paid cash distributions of $84.1 million. These cash distributions were paid with $96.7 million from our cash flow from operations, $8.7 million provided by distributions from unconsolidated entities, as well as $341.8 million from the gain on sale of one non-core asset, one student housing asset, 24 retail assets, and the student housing platform sale.
The following chart summarizes the sources of our cash used to pay distributions. Our primary source of cash is cash flow provided by operating activities from our investments as presented in our cash flow statement. We also include distributions from unconsolidated entities to the extent that the underlying real estate operations in these entities generate these cash flows. Gain on sales of properties relate to net profits from the sale of certain properties. Our presentation is not intended to be an alternative to our consolidated statements of cash flows and does not present all the sources and uses of our cash.
The following table presents a historical view of our distribution coverage.

This reduction in the annualized distribution rate is a result of the Xenia spin-off. Xenia generated a substantial portion of our cash flows from operations and as a result, our previous distribution rate of $0.50 was not sustainable after the Xenia spin-off. Beginning in the third quarter of 2015, we moved to quarterly distributions. The distributions declared are paid in the month subsequent to quarter end. |
(c) | Our cash flow provided by operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 were impacted by the Highlands spin-off and sale of the student housing platform. Our cash flow provided by operations in the first quarter of 2015 were impacted by the Xenia spin-off, as well as annual real estate taxes paid in January. |

On February 3, 2015, we completed the Xenia spin-off through the pro rata taxable distribution of 95% of the outstanding common stock of Xenia to holders of record of our common stock as of the close of business on the record date, which was January 20, 2015. Each holder of record of our common stock received one share of Xenia’s common stock for every eight shares of our common stock held at the close of business on the record date. In lieu of fractional shares, stockholders of the Company received cash. On February 4, 2015, Xenia’s common stock began trading on the NYSE under the ticker symbol "XHR".
Upon completing the Xenia spin-off, our board of directors analyzed and reviewed our distribution rate, and on February 24, 2015, announced a new distribution rate of $0.13 per share on an annualized basis beginning with the distribution paid in March 2015.
49
In October 2015, we moved from monthly to quarterly distributions.
On April 28, 2016, we completed the Highlands spin-off through the pro rata taxable distribution of 100% of the outstanding common stock of Highlands to holders of record of our common stock as of the close of business on the record date, which was April 25, 2016. Each holder of record of our common stock received one share of Highlands' common stock for every one share of our common stock held at the close of business on the record date. Highlands did not list its common stock on any securities exchange or other market in connection with the spin-off.
Effective for the quarterly distribution paid in October 2016, we reduced our annual distribution rate from $0.13 per share of common stock to $0.0675 per share of common stock. The adjustment to the distribution rate equates to a 2016 calendar year total distribution of $0.09875 per share (an annual rate of $0.13 per share through June 30, 2016 and an annual rate of $0.0675 per share from July 1, 2016 to year-end). The reduction in the distribution rate was effective for the most recent quarterly distribution. Distributions were paid on October 6, 2016 to each stockholder of record on September 30, 2016 in the amount of $0.016875 per share. Our board considered a number of factors in establishing the new distribution rate, including the items set forth below.
• | Sale of Student Housing Properties. In June 2016, we completed the sale of our student housing platform, University House. As previously disclosed, the student housing properties produced significant cash flow for us. Because the student housing properties are no longer part of our portfolio, the previous distribution rate is not sustainable. |
• | Spin-Off of Highlands. As noted above, in April 2016, we completed the spin-off of Highlands, which we formed to hold substantially all of our remaining non-core assets. The Highlands spin-off was also a factor in establishing the new distribution rate because several of the assets included in the spin-off produced cash flow for us and are no longer part of our portfolio. |
• | Retail Platform Capital Rotation Strategy. In addition to considering the dispositions of the student housing properties and the non-core asset portfolio, our board considered our retail platform capital rotation strategy. The board determined that it is in the best interest of the Company to retain additional operating cash flow, especially during the execution of our capital rotation strategy of refining our retail portfolio by disposing of non-strategic retail assets in non-core, non-growth markets and redeploying that capital into strategic retail assets in higher growth, target markets. |
• | Pursuit of Flexible Low-Levered Balance Sheet. Our board also considered that the additional retained operating cash flow will help maintain a flexible low debt balance sheet in the future and diminish the impact of upcoming debt maturities. Furthermore, executing on this capital strategy should put us in a better position to evaluate various strategic transactions and potentially pursue a transaction aimed at achieving liquidity for our stockholders over the next 18 to 24 months. |
As we execute on our retail strategy, our board expects to evaluate our distribution rate on a quarterly basis. See "Outlook" for more information regarding our retail strategy.

Cash and cash equivalents, at end of period | $ | 578,730 | $ | 253,247 |
Cash provided by operating activities was $96.7 million and $143.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and was primarily generated from operating income from property operations, interest, and dividends. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities of $47.1 million from the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the same period in 2016 is primarily related to the sale of 24 retail assets, the student housing platform sale, one non-core asset, and one student housing asset.
Cash provided by investing activities was $1,093.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 compared to cash used in investing activities of $66.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, cash provided by investing activities was primarily a result of proceeds from the sale of 24 retail assets, the student housing platform sale, one non-core asset, and one student housing asset. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, cash used in investing activities primarily related to the development of five student housing developments, the acquisition of two retail properties and one student housing property as well as capital expenditures.
Cash used in financing activities was $815.2 million and $557.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, cash used in financing activities was primarily a result of debt payoffs of $999.1 million and was offset by proceeds from debt of $299.7 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, cash used in financing activities was primarily a result of cash contributed to Xenia of $165.9 million, the contribution of cash held by the lodging properties of $130.1 million to Xenia, and debt payoffs of $293.4 million.
We consider all demand deposits, money market accounts and investments in certificates of deposit and repurchase agreements with a maturity of three months or less, at the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents. We maintain our cash and cash equivalents at financial institutions. The combined account balances at one or more institutions periodically exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance coverage and, as a result, there is a concentration of credit risk related to amounts on deposit in excess of FDIC insurance coverage.

(a) The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), an industry trade group, has promulgated a standard known as FFO, or Funds from Operations. As defined by NAREIT, FFO is net income (loss) in accordance with GAAP excluding gains (or losses) resulting from dispositions of properties, plus depreciation and amortization and impairment charges on depreciable property, after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures in which we hold an interest, and extraordinary items. We have adopted the NAREIT definition in our calculation of NAREIT FFO Applicable to Common Shares as management considers FFO a widely accepted and appropriate measure of performance for REITs.
In calculating FFO, impairment charges of depreciable real estate assets are added back even though the impairment charge may represent a permanent decline in value due to decreased operating performance of the applicable property. Further, because gains and losses from sales of property are excluded from FFO, it is consistent and appropriate that impairments, which are often early recognition of losses on prospective sales of property, also be excluded. If evidence exists that a loss reflected in the investment of an unconsolidated entity is due to the write-down of depreciable real estate assets, these impairment charges are added back to FFO. The methodology is consistent with the concept of excluding impairment charges of depreciable assets or early recognition of losses on sale of depreciable real estate assets held by the Company.
53
We believe that FFO is a better measure of our properties' operating performance because FFO excludes non-cash items from GAAP net income. FFO is neither intended to be an alternative to "net income" nor to "cash flows from operating activities" as determined by GAAP as a measure of our capacity to pay distributions. Other REITs may use alternative methodologies for calculating similarly titled measures, which may not be comparable to our calculation of NAREIT FFO Applicable to Common Shares. FFO is calculated as follows:

The table below reflects additional information related to certain items that significantly impact the comparability of our FFO and net income (loss) or significant non-cash items from the periods presented. We have included this table because these items are not included in NAREIT’s definition of FFO, but we believe these items provide useful supplemental information that may facilitate comparisons of our ongoing operating performance between periods, as well as between REITs that include similar disclosure. We believe these items help our investors better assess the sustainability of our operating performance without the distortions created by non-cash revenues or expenses, or the impacts of certain transactions that are not related to the ongoing profitability of our portfolio of properties, and that including this table is beneficial to our investors' complete understanding of our operating performance.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are subject to market risk associated with changes in interest rates both in terms of variable-rate debt and the price of new fixed-rate debt upon maturity of existing debt and for acquisitions. We are also subject to market risk associated with our marketable securities investments.
Interest Rate Risk
Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. As of September 30, 2016, our debt included an outstanding variable rate term loan of $150.0 million, which has been swapped to a fixed rate as of September 30, 2016. If market rates of interest on all of the floating rate debt as of September 30, 2016 permanently increased by 1%, the increase in interest expense on the floating rate debt would decrease future earnings and cash flows by $1.5 million. If market rates of interest on all of the floating rate debt as of September 30, 2016 permanently decreased by 1%, the decrease in interest expense on the floating rate debt would increase future earnings and cash flows by $1.5 million.
With regard to our variable rate financing, we assess interest rate cash flow risk by continually identifying and monitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact expected future cash flows and by evaluating hedging opportunities. We maintain risk management control systems to monitor interest rate cash flow risk attributable to both of our outstanding or forecasted debt obligations as well as our potential offsetting hedge positions. The risk management control systems involve the use of analytical techniques, including cash flow sensitivity analysis, to estimate the expected impact of changes in interest rates on our future cash flows.
We monitor interest rate risk using a variety of techniques, including periodically evaluating fixed interest rate quotes on all variable rate debt and the costs associated with converting the debt to fixed rate debt. Also, existing fixed and variable rate loans that are scheduled to mature in the next year or two are evaluated for possible early refinancing and or extension due to consideration given to current interest rates.
We may use financial instruments to hedge exposures to changes in interest rates on loans secured by our properties. To the extent we do, we are exposed to credit risk and market risk. Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. When the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty owes us, which creates credit risk for us. When the fair value of a derivative contract is negative, we owe the counterparty and, therefore, it does not possess credit risk. In the alternative, we seek to minimize the credit risk in derivative instruments by entering into transactions with what we believe are high-quality counterparties. Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of a financial instrument that results from a change in interest rates. The market risk associated with interest-rate contracts is managed by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken.
As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had entered into interest rate swap agreements with a notional value of $150.0 million and $157.0 million, respectively. The fair value liabilities of our interest rate swap contracts outstanding as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 were $2.3 million and $1.9 million, respectively.
We have, and may in the future enter into, derivative positions that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment. The gains or losses resulting from marking-to-market these derivatives at the end of each reporting period are recognized as an increase or decrease in interest expense on our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). In addition, we are, and may in the future be, subject to additional expense based on the notional amount of the derivative positions and a specified spread over LIBOR.
Equity Price Risk
We are exposed to equity price risk as a result of our investments in marketable equity securities. Equity price risk is based on volatility of equity prices and the values of corresponding equity indices.
We incurred no impairments on our investment in marketable securities for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. We believe that our investments will continue to generate dividend income and we could continue to recognize gains on sale. However, due to general economic and credit market uncertainties it is difficult to project where the REIT market and our portfolio will perform in 2016.
Although it is difficult to project what factors may affect the prices of equity sectors and how much the effect might be, the table below illustrates the impact of a 10% increase and a 10% decrease in the price of the equities held by us would have on the value of the total assets and the book value of the Company as of September 30, 2016.
Historical Cost of Securities | Fair Value of Securities at September 30, 2016 | Hypothetical 10% Decrease in Market Value | Hypothetical 10% Increase in Market Value | ||||
Equity securities | $134,811 | $180,249 | $162,224 | $198,274 |

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) and Rule 15d-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer evaluated, as of September 30, 2016, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of September 30, 2016, were effective at a reasonable assurance level for the purpose of ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in this report is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the Exchange Act and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Part II - Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are subject, from time to time, to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. While the resolution of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe, based on currently available information, that the final outcome of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in response to Item 1A. to Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
Not applicable.
Item 5. Other Information
Our board of directors has established June 1, 2017 as the date of our next annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”). Because the date of the Annual Meeting will be more than 30 days after the anniversary of our previous annual meeting of stockholders, we are informing stockholders of the change in accordance with Rule 14a-5(f) under the Exchange Act. The timing of the Annual Meeting generally aligns our practice with the vast majority of other public companies, which also have a fiscal year ending on December 31. The timing also streamlines, simplifies and reduces costs related to preparation and processes for our Annual Report on Form 10-K and proxy statement, as we expect to incorporate by reference certain sections of the proxy statement into the Form 10-K, which is permitted under SEC rules if the proxy statement is filed within 120 days after the end of the fiscal year.
Stockholder nominations of director candidates for the Annual Meeting must be submitted in advance to the Company in accordance with the procedures specified in Section 9(a) of Article II of our current bylaws. For the Annual Meeting, to be timely under our current bylaws, a stockholder must provide written notice to the Company of a director candidate nomination not earlier than January 2, 2017 and not later than 5:00 p.m., eastern time, on February 1, 2017. Stockholders intending to present any other proposal for action by the stockholders at the Annual Meeting are subject to the same notice provisions and
57
must provide written notice to the Company of a proposal not earlier than January 2, 2017 and not later than 5:00 p.m., eastern time, on February 1, 2017. A copy of our bylaws may be obtained by written request to our corporate secretary at the address below.
In accordance with Rule 14a-8(e) under the Exchange Act, the deadline for receipt by the Company of stockholder proposals to be considered for inclusion in our proxy statement for the Annual Meeting is 5:00 p.m., eastern time, on December 14, 2016. Stockholder proposals must otherwise comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act.
Any director nominations or stockholder proposals described above must be submitted in writing and addressed to our general counsel and secretary, c/o InvenTrust Properties Corp., 2809 Butterfield Road, Suite 360, Oak Brook, Illinois 60523.
