Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Accounting The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation, specifically the amortization of the basis difference related to our unconsolidated joint venture of $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 , which has been reflected as a component of income (loss) from unconsolidated joint venture instead of depreciation and amortization in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. See Note 4 — Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture . Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and consolidated joint venture arrangements in which the Company has controlling financial interests, either through voting or similar rights or by means other than voting rights if the Company is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity ("VIE"). The portions of the consolidated joint venture arrangements not owned by the Company are presented as noncontrolling interests. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company evaluates its relationships and investments to determine if it has variable interests in a VIE. A variable interest is an investment or other interest that will absorb portions of an entity’s expected losses or receive portions of the entity’s expected residual returns. If the Company determines that it has a variable interest in an entity, it evaluates whether such interest is in a VIE. A VIE is broadly defined as an entity where either (1) the equity investors as a group, if any, lack the power through voting or similar rights to direct the activities of an entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance or (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support. The Company consolidates any VIEs when it is determined to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE’s operations. A variable interest holder is considered to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE if it has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and has the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company continually evaluates the need to consolidate its joint ventures. In determining whether the Company has a controlling interest in a joint venture and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, management considers factors such as ownership interest, power to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the partners or members as well as whether the entity is a VIE for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management makes significant estimates regarding revenue recognition, purchase price allocations to record investments in real estate, derivative financial instruments and hedging activities, equity-based compensation expenses related to the 2014 Advisor Multi-Year Outperformance Agreement (as amended and restated effective August 5, 2015, the "OPP") and fair value measurements, as applicable. Investments in Real Estate The Company evaluates the inputs, processes and outputs of each asset acquired to determine if the transaction is a business combination or asset acquisition. If an acquisition qualifies as a business combination, the related transaction costs are recorded as an expense in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. If an acquisition qualifies as an asset acquisition, the related transaction costs are generally capitalized and subsequently amortized over the useful life of the acquired assets. In business combinations, the Company allocates the purchase price of acquired properties to tangible and identifiable intangible assets or liabilities and non-controlling interests based on their respective estimated fair values. Tangible assets may include land, land improvements, buildings, fixtures and tenant improvements. Intangible assets or liabilities may include the value of in-place leases, above- and below-market leases and other identifiable intangible assets or liabilities based on lease or property specific characteristics. The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property with an in-place operating lease is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to the tangible assets based on the fair value of the tangible assets. The fair value of in-place leases is determined by considering estimates of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods, current market conditions, as well as costs to execute similar leases. The fair value of above- or below-market leases and ground leases is recorded based on the present value of the difference between the contractual amount to be paid pursuant to the in-place lease and the Company's estimate of the comparable fair market lease rate, measured over the remaining term of the lease, including any below market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases. The fair value of other intangible assets, such as real estate tax abatements, are recorded based on the present value of the expected benefit and amortized over the expected useful life. Fair values of assumed mortgages, if applicable, are recorded as debt premiums or discounts based on the present value of the estimated cash flows, which is calculated to account for either above- or below-market interest rates. Non-controlling interests in property owning entities are recorded based on its fair value at the date of acquisition, as determined by the terms of the applicable agreement. The Company utilizes a number of sources in making its estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating purchase price, including real estate valuations prepared by independent valuation firms. The Company also considers information and other factors including: market conditions, the industry in which the tenant operates, characteristics of the real estate such as location, size, demographics, value and comparative rental rates, tenant credit profile and the importance of the location of the real estate to the operations of the tenant’s business. Disposals of real estate investments that represent a strategic shift in operations that will have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results are presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for all periods presented; otherwise, the Company continues to report the results of these properties' operations within continuing operations. Properties that are intended to be sold will be designated as "held for sale" on the consolidated balance sheets at the lesser of carrying amount or fair value less estimated selling costs when they meet specific criteria to be presented as held for sale. Properties are no longer depreciated when they are classified as held for sale. The Company has three properties classified as held for sale as of December 31, 2015 . The Company did not have any properties held for sale as of December 31, 2014 . See Note 3 — Real Estate Investments . Acquired intangible assets and lease liabilities consist of the following as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 . December 31, 2015 (In thousands) Gross Carrying Amount Accumulated Amortization Net Carrying Amount Intangible assets: In-place leases $ 113,392 $ 31,120 $ 82,272 Other intangible 3,804 429 3,375 Above-market leases 20,398 3,713 16,685 Total acquired intangible assets $ 137,594 $ 35,262 $ 102,332 Intangible lease liabilities: Below-market leases $ 77,177 $ 21,110 $ 56,067 Above-market ground lease liability 17,968 952 17,016 Total market lease intangibles $ 95,145 $ 22,062 $ 73,083 December 31, 2014 (In thousands) Gross Carrying Amount Accumulated Amortization Net Carrying Amount Intangible assets: In-place leases $ 131,518 $ 27,450 $ 104,068 Other intangible 3,804 107 3,697 Above-market leases 23,061 3,605 19,456 Total acquired intangible assets $ 158,383 $ 31,162 $ 127,221 Intangible lease liabilities: Below-market leases $ 81,708 $ 14,953 $ 66,755 Above-market ground lease liability 17,968 503 17,465 Total market lease intangibles $ 99,676 $ 15,456 $ 84,220 Depreciation and Amortization Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of up to 40 years for buildings, 15 years for land improvements, five to seven years for fixtures and improvements and the shorter of the useful life or the remaining lease term for tenant improvements and leasehold interests. Acquired above-market leases are amortized as a reduction of rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases. Acquired below-market leases are amortized as an increase to rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases and expected below-market renewal option periods. Acquired above-market ground leases are amortized as a reduction of property operating expense over the remaining term of the respective leases. Acquired below-market ground lease values are amortized as an increase to property operating expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases and expected below-market renewal option period. The value of in-place leases, exclusive of the value of above- and below-market in-place leases, is amortized to depreciation and amortization expense over the remaining terms of the respective leases. Assumed mortgage premiums or discounts, if applicable, are amortized as a reduction or increase to interest expense over the remaining term of the respective mortgages. The following table provides the weighted-average remaining amortization and accretion periods as of December 31, 2015 , for intangible assets and liabilities and the projected amortization expense and adjustments to revenues for the next five years: (Dollar amounts in thousands) Weighted- Average Remaining Amortization Period 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 In-place leases 8.9 $ 10,665 $ 9,612 $ 8,655 $ 8,271 $ 8,033 Other intangible 10.5 321 321 321 321 321 Total to be included in depreciation and amortization expense $ 10,986 $ 9,933 $ 8,976 $ 8,592 $ 8,354 Above-market lease assets 12.4 $ (1,428 ) $ (1,420 ) $ (1,420 ) $ (1,420 ) $ (1,407 ) Below-market lease liabilities 9.1 7,446 6,660 5,875 5,490 5,250 Total to be included in rental income $ 6,018 $ 5,240 $ 4,455 $ 4,070 $ 3,843 Above-market ground lease liability to be deducted from property operating expenses 35.6 $ (449 ) $ (449 ) $ (449 ) $ (449 ) $ (449 ) For the years ended December 31, 2015 , 2014 and 2013 , amortization of in-place leases and other intangible of $19.8 million , $21.1 million and $8.1 million , respectively, is included in depreciation and amortization on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. For the years ended December 31, 2015 , 2014 and 2013 , net amortization of above- and below-market lease intangibles of $7.9 million , $9.3 million and $2.6 million , respectively, is included in rental income on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. For the years ended December 31, 2015 , 2014 and 2013 , amortization of above-market ground lease liability of $0.4 million , $0.4 million , and $0.1 million , respectively, is included in property operating expense on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Impairment of Long Lived Assets When circumstances indicate the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable, the Company reviews the asset for impairment. This review is based on an estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows, excluding interest charges, expected to result from the property’s use and eventual disposition. These estimates consider factors such as expected future operating income, market and other applicable trends and residual value, as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors. If such estimated cash flows are less than the carrying value of a property, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the property for properties to be held and used. For properties held for sale, the impairment loss is based on the adjustment to estimated fair value less estimated cost to dispose of the asset. Generally, the Company determines estimated fair value for properties held for sale based on the agreed-upon selling price of an asset. These assessments may result in the immediate recognition of an impairment loss, resulting in a reduction of net income (loss). The Company recognized impairment charges of $0.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2015 . The Company was not required to recognize any impairment charges for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 . Impairment of Equity Method Investments The Company monitors the value of its equity method investments for indicators of impairment. An impairment charge is recognized when the Company determines that a decline in the fair value of the investment below its carrying value is other-than-temporary. The assessment of impairment is subjective and involves the application of significant assumptions and judgments about the Company's intent and ability to recover its investment given the nature and operations of the underlying investment. The Company was not required to recognize any impairment charges related to equity method investments during the years ended December 31, 2015 , 2014 or 2013 . Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in bank accounts as well as investments in highly-liquid money market funds with original maturities of three months or less. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014 , $0.2 million and $0.3 million , respectively, was held in money market funds with the Company's financial institutions. The Company deposits cash with high-quality financial institutions. These deposits are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Company (the "FDIC") up to an insurance limit. At December 31, 2015 and 2014 the Company had deposits of $98.6 million and $22.5 million , respectively, of which $96.3 million and $18.9 million , respectively, were in excess of the amount insured by the FDIC. Although the Company bears risk to amounts in excess of those insured by the FDIC, it does not anticipate any losses as a result. Restricted Cash Restricted cash primarily consists of maintenance, real estate tax, structural, and debt service reserves. Investment Securities The Company classifies its investments in debt or equity securities into one of three classes: held-to-maturity, available-for-sale or trading, as applicable. Investments in debt securities that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold until maturity are classified as held-to-maturity and are reported at amortized cost. Debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for the purposes of selling them in the near future are classified as trading securities. Debt and equity securities not classified as trading securities or as held-to-maturity securities are classified as available-for-sale securities and are reported at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported as a component of equity within accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. Gains or losses on securities sold are based on the specific identification method. The Company evaluates its investments in securities for impairment or other-than-temporary impairment on a quarterly basis. The Company reviews each investment individually and assesses factors that may include (i) if the carrying amount of an investment exceeds its fair value, (ii) if there has been any change in the market as a whole or in the investee’s market, (iii) if there are any plans to sell the investment in question or if the Company believes it may be forced to sell its investment, and (iv) if there have been any other factors that would indicate the possibility of the existence of an other-than-temporary impairment. The fair value of the Company’s investments in available-for-sale securities generally rise and fall based on current market conditions. If, after reviewing relevant factors surrounding an impaired security, the Company determines that it will not recover its full investment in an impaired security, the Company recognizes an other-than-temporary impairment charge in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss in the period in which the other-than-temporary impairment is discovered, regardless of whether or not the Company plans to sell or believes it will be forced to sell the security in question. The Company was not required to recognize any other-than-temporary impairment charges for the years ended December 31, 2015 , 2014 or 2013 . Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture The Company accounts for its investment in unconsolidated joint venture under the equity method of accounting because the Company exercises significant influence over, but does not control, the entity and is not considered to be the primary beneficiary. This investment was recorded initially at cost and subsequently adjusted for equity in net income (loss) and cash contributions and distributions. Any difference between the carrying amount of this investment and the underlying equity in net assets is depreciated and amortized over the estimated useful lives of the assets and liabilities with a corresponding adjustment to the equity income (loss) from unconsolidated joint venture on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Equity income (loss) from unconsolidated joint venture is allocated based on the Company's ownership or economic interest in the joint venture. A loss in the value of a joint venture investment that is determined to be other than temporary is recognized in the period in which the loss occurs. See Note 4 — Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture . Deferred Costs, Net Deferred costs, net consists of deferred financing costs and leasing costs. Deferred financing costs represent commitment fees, legal fees, and other costs associated with obtaining commitments for financing. These costs are amortized to interest expense over the terms of the respective financing agreements using the effective interest method. Unamortized deferred financing costs are expensed when the associated debt is refinanced or repaid before maturity. Costs incurred in seeking financial transactions that do not close are expensed in the period in which it is determined that the financing will not close. Deferred leasing costs, consisting primarily of lease commissions and professional fees incurred, are deferred and amortized to depreciation and amortization expense over the term of the lease. Derivative Instruments The Company uses derivative financial instruments to hedge the interest rate risk associated with a portion of its borrowings. The principal objective of such agreements is to minimize the risks and costs associated with the Company's operating and financial structure as well as to hedge specific anticipated transactions. The Company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that is attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge. The Company may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain of its risk, even though hedge accounting does not apply or if the Company does not elect to apply hedge accounting. If the Company designates a qualifying derivative as a hedge, changes in the value of the derivative are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. If a derivative does not qualify as a hedge, or if the Company does not elect to apply hedge accounting, changes in the value of the derivative are reflected in other income (loss) on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Revenue Recognition The Company's revenues, which are derived primarily from rental income, include rents that each tenant pays in accordance with the terms of each lease reported on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease. Because many of the Company's leases provide for rental increases at specified intervals, GAAP requires that the Company record a receivable, and include in revenues on a straight-line basis, unbilled rent receivables that it will only receive if the tenant makes all rent payments required through the expiration of the initial term of the lease. The Company defers the revenue related to lease payments received from tenants in advance of their due dates. When the Company acquires a property, the acquisition date is considered to be the commencement date for purposes of this calculation. Rental revenue recognition commences when the tenant takes possession of or controls the physical use of the leased space. For the tenant to take possession, the leased space must be substantially ready for its intended use. To determine whether the leased space is substantially ready for its intended use, the Company evaluates whether the Company owns or if the tenant owns the tenant improvements. When the Company is the owner of tenant improvements, rental revenue recognition begins when the tenant takes possession of the finished space, which is on the date on which such improvements are substantially complete. When the tenant is the owner of tenant improvements, rental revenue recognition begins when the tenant takes possession of or controls the space. When the Company concludes that it is the owner of tenant improvements, the Company capitalizes the cost to construct the tenant improvements, including costs paid for or reimbursed by the tenants. When the Company concludes that the tenant is the owner of tenant improvements for accounting purposes, the Company records its contribution towards those improvements as a lease incentive, which is included in deferred leasing costs, net on the consolidated balance sheets and amortized as a reduction to rental income on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. The Company continually reviews receivables related to rent and unbilled rent receivables and determines collectability by taking into consideration the tenant's payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located. In the event that the collectability of a receivable is in doubt, the Company will record an increase in its allowance for uncollectible accounts or record a direct write-off of the receivable in its consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company owns certain properties with leases that include provisions for the tenant to pay contingent rental income based on a percent of the tenant's sales upon the achievement of certain sales thresholds or other targets which may be monthly, quarterly or annual targets. As the lessor to the aforementioned leases, the Company defers the recognition of contingent rental income until the specified target that triggered the contingent rental income is achieved, or until such sales upon which percentage rent is based are known. If contingent rental income is recognized pursuant to these provisions, contingent rental income is included in rental income on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company recognized contingent rental revenue of $0.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2015 . The Company did not recognize any revenue or deferred revenue related to contingent rental income during the years ended December 31, 2014 or 2013 . Cost recoveries from tenants are included in operating expense reimbursement in the period the related costs are incurred, as applicable. The Company's hotel revenues are recognized as earned and are derived from room rentals and other sources such as charges to guests for telephone service, movie and vending commissions, meeting and banquet room revenue and laundry services. Share-Based Compensation The Company has a stock-based incentive award plan for its directors, which is accounted for under the guidance for employee share based payments. The cost of services received in exchange for a stock award is measured at the grant date fair value of the award and the expense for such awards is included in general and administrative expenses and is recognized over the service period or when the requirements for exercise of the award have been met. During the year ended December 31, 2015 , the Company granted restricted shares to employees of the Advisor, which are accounted for under the guidance for non-employee share-based payments. The fair value of the awards granted to employees of the Advisor are remeasured quarterly, with the resulting amortization adjustments reflected in general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. 2014 Advisor Multi-Year Outperformance Agreement On April 15, 2014 (the "Effective Date"), in connection with the Listing, the Company entered into the OPP with the OP and the Advisor, which is accounted for under the guidance for non-employee share-based payments. The Company records equity based compensation expense associated with the awards over the requisite service period of five years. Equity-based compensation expense is adjusted each reporting period for changes in the estimated market-related performance. See Note 16 — Share-Based Compensation . Income Taxes The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 2010. If the Company continues to qualify for taxation as a REIT, it generally will not be subject to federal corporate income tax to the extent it distributes annually all of its REIT taxable income to its stockholders, determined without regard for the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains. REITs are subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that the Company distribute annually at least 90% of the Company’s REIT taxable income to the Company’s stockholders. If the Company fails to continue to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year and does not qualify for certain statutory relief provisions, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes at regular corporate rates (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) beginning with the year in which it fails to qualify and may be precluded from being able to elect to be treated as a REIT for the Company’s four subsequent taxable years. The Company distributed to its stockholders 100% of its REIT taxable income for each of the years ended December 31, 2015 , 2014 and 2013 . Accordingly, no provision for federal or state income taxes related to such REIT taxable income was recorded on the Company’s financial statements. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company purchased a hotel, which is owned by a subsidiary of the OP and leased to a taxable REIT subsidiary ("TRS"), that is owned by the OP. A TRS is subject to federal, state and local income taxes. The TRS is a tax paying component for purposes of classifying deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent the Company believes these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. In the event the Company determines that it would not be able to realize the deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of the net recorded amount, the Company establishes a valuation allowance which offsets the previously recognized income tax benefit. Deferred income taxes result from temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities of the TRS for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The TRS had deferred tax assets and a corresponding valuation allowance of $3.1 million and $1.7 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 , respectively. The TRS had federal and state net operating loss carry forwards as of December 31, 2015 of $6.7 million , which will expire through 2036. The Company estimated income tax relating to its TRS using a combined federal and state rate of approximately 43% for the year ended December 31, 2015 . The Company has concluded that it is more likely than not that the net operating loss carry forwards will not be utilized during the carry forward period and as such the Company has established a valuation allowance against these deferred tax assets. The Company had immaterial current and deferred federal and state income tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2015 , 2014 and 2013 . As of December 31, 2015 , the Company had no material uncertain income tax positions. The tax years subsequent to and including the year ended December 31, 2012 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject. Per Share Data The Company calculates basic income (loss) per share of common stock by dividing net income (loss) for the period by the weighted-average shares of its common stock outstanding for the respective period. Diluted income per share takes into account the effect of dilutive instruments such as unvested restricted stock, Long-term Incentive Plan ("LTIP") units and OP units (assuming such units are not antidilutive), based on the average share price for the period in determining the number of incremental shares that are to be added to the weighted-average number of shares outstanding. See Note 18 — Net Loss Per Share . Reportable Segments The Company has determined that it has one reportable segment, with activities related to investing in real estate. The Company's investments in real estate generate rental revenue and other income through the leasing and management of properties. Management evaluates the operating performance of the Company's investments in real estate at the individual property level. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued revised guidance relating to revenue recognition. Under the revised guidance, an entity is required to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which |
