1. BACKGROUND AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Description of Business: Alexander & Baldwin, Inc. ("A&B" or the "Company") is a real estate investment trust ("REIT") headquartered in Honolulu, Hawai‘i. The Company operates in 3 segments: Commercial Real Estate ("CRE"); Land Operations; and Materials & Construction ("M&C"). As of September 30, 2020, the Company owns a portfolio of commercial real estate improved properties in Hawai‘i consisting of 22 retail centers, 10 industrial assets and 4 office properties, representing a total of 3.9 million square feet of gross leasable area; it also owns a portfolio of ground leases in Hawai‘i representing 153.7 acres as of September 30, 2020. Throughout this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, references to "we," "our," "us" and "our Company" refer to Alexander & Baldwin, Inc., together with its consolidated subsidiaries.
Basis of Presentation: The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. Because of the nature of the Company's operations, the results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year. While these condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for fair presentation of the results of the interim period, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for complete financial statements. Therefore, the interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), equity and cash flows for each of the three years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 ("2019 Form 10-K"), and other subsequent filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").
Rounding: Amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are rounded to the nearest tenth of a million. Accordingly, a recalculation of some per-share amounts and percentages, if based on the reported data, may result in differences.
Reclassifications: Certain amounts presented in the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Refer to Note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for such reclassifications made in conjunction with the adoption of recent accounting pronouncements. Further, a reclassification was made to the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows to present, on a net basis, amounts previously presented separately within cash flows from operating activities (i.e., to present activity related to proceeds and expenditures of real estate development/other property for sale – normal operating activity in the Company's Land Operations segment – on a net basis similar to the presentation of changes in other inventories held by the Company). This change does not affect previously reported cash flows from operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company's significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of the Company's 2019 Form 10-K. Changes to significant accounting policies are included herein.
In April 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") staff issued a question-and-answer document focusing on lease concessions related to the effects of the 2019 coronavirus pandemic ("COVID-19") and the application of lease accounting guidance related to modifications (the "Lease Modification Q&A"). See Note 12 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion on the impact of applicable rent relief provided beginning in the quarter ended June 30, 2020 under the Lease Modification Q&A.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ("ASU 2016-13"), which requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost and available for sale debt securities, and amended the guidance thereafter. The guidance in ASU 2016-13 and related amendments was codified into Accounting Standards Codification Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses ("ASC 326"). ASC 326 amended prior guidance on the impairment of financial instruments by adding an impairment model based on expected losses rather than incurred losses that would be recognized through an allowance for credit losses. Amendments included in ASC 326 further clarified that operating lease receivables are not within the scope of ASC 326 and are to remain governed by lease guidance.
8
The Company completed its adoption of the provisions of ASU 2016-13, as amended, with an effective date of January 1, 2020, using a modified retrospective approach for its financial assets in the scope of ASC 326, which consisted of in-scope financial assets held at amortized cost (presented as part of the Company's accounts and retention receivables, other receivables and other contract assets). As a result of the guidance, the Company is required to estimate and record non-cash credit losses related to these financial assets and expand its credit quality disclosures. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2020 are presented under ASC 326 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable guidance. The Company recorded a net increase of $4.0 million to Distributions in excess of accumulated earnings as of January 1, 2020, with a corresponding increase to previously recorded valuation accounts for its financial assets held at amortized cost for the cumulative effect of adopting ASC 326. The new standard did not have a material impact to any of the Company's other financial assets or instruments presented on its condensed consolidated balance sheet.
The following table illustrates the impact of the Company's adoption of ASC 326 (in millions):
January 1, 2020 | ||||||||||||||||||||
As Reported under ASC 326 | Prior to ASC 326 Adoption | Impact of ASC 326 Adoption | ||||||||||||||||||

Total | $ | 5.9 | $ | 1.9 | $ | 4.0 |
1 Included in Prepaid expenses and other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The guidance amends and removes several disclosure requirements, including the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. This ASU also modifies some disclosure requirements and requires additional disclosures for changes in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements and requires the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements or footnote disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other: Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That is a Service Contract. The guidance aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). Accordingly, the amendments require an entity (customer) in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract to follow the guidance in Subtopic 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as an asset related to the service contract and which costs to expense. The amendments also require the entity (customer) to expense the capitalized implementation costs of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract over the term of the hosting arrangement, which includes reasonably certain renewals. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
Reclassifications in conjunction with recently adopted accounting pronouncements
In conjunction with its adoption of ASC 326 with an effective date of January 1, 2020, the Company made certain reclassifications in its presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets for amounts related to contract receivables and financing receivables; such reclassifications were not material to the condensed consolidated financial statements. One such reclassification was to present interest receivables in the same line as the related financing receivables (affecting Accounts receivable, net and Other receivables). Another was to aggregate Accounts receivable, net and Contracts retention into a single line item in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets (refer to Note 11 where such balances will continue to be presented separately). Further, certain amounts historically related to the allowance for doubtful accounts were reclassified under current presentation (e.g., certain amounts are now presented under the allowance for credit losses calculated under ASC 326 as described in Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements).

Recently issued accounting pronouncements
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans. The guidance clarifies current disclosures and removes several disclosure requirements including accumulated other comprehensive income expected to be recognized over the next fiscal year and amount and timing of plan assets expected to be returned to the employer. This ASU also requires additional disclosures as well as explanations for significant gains and losses related to changes in the benefit plan obligation. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new standard will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform. The new guidance provides practical expedients and exceptions for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts if certain criteria are met. The amendments apply only to contracts and hedging relationships that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. These amendments are effective immediately and may be applied prospectively to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated on or before December 31, 2022. The Company is currently assessing its contracts and the optional expedients provided by the new standard.
Allowance for credit losses
The Company estimates its allowance for credit losses for financial assets within the scope of ASC 326 at portfolio levels which include the CRE segment, the Land Operations segment and individual components of the M&C segment (e.g., "GPC," "GPRS," further described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of the Company's 2019 Form 10-K). Within these portfolio levels, the Company develops expected credit loss estimates by security type (which may include financing receivables or contract assets recognized in contracts with customers) by factoring historical loss information; information on both current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future conditions that may not be reflected in historical loss information; and other relevant credit quality information for the respective securities. As part of this process, the Company analyzes relevant information on a collective (pool) basis for securities with similar risk characteristics or separately on an individual basis when a financial asset does not share risk characteristics with other financial assets.
The portfolios of financial assets within the scope of ASC 326 relating to the CRE and Land Operations segments include financing receivables (i.e., notes receivable), which are primarily composed of historical development and other land-related transactions. The assets in these portfolios are analyzed on an individual basis, in which the Company considers certain, available information specific to the counterparties to the transactions (e.g., liquidity and solvency of the counterparties) and environmental factors that are relevant in the assessment of the expected collectability of the future cash flows for these assets (e.g., changes and expected changes in the general economic environment in which the counterparty operates). For these assets, the Company uses a discounted cash flow method to calculate the allowance for credit losses using the asset's effective interest rate.
The portfolios relating to the M&C segment represent discrete business components and are composed of contract assets from the Company's contracts with customers. The differing nature of the products and services provided by these components drive differences in historical and expected credit loss patterns and, as such, the Company tracks historical loss information at this portfolio level as part of information it uses to develop its estimate of expected credit losses. Further, as the Company believes its contract assets have different default risk expectations based on customer/project type, in addition to the historical loss information at the portfolio level, the Company also pools the respective portfolio's contract receivables by these different categories to make adjustments to its historical loss experience. Other information the Company analyzes and uses in its development of its allowance for credit losses include known customer information and environmental factors surrounding the customers' current and future ability to pay (i.e., changes and expected changes in the general economic environment in which the customers operate).

As of the acquisition date, the weighted-average amortization periods of the in-place and favorable leases were approximately 8.2 years and 4.7 years, respectively. The weighted-average amortization period of the unfavorable leases was approximately 18.6 years.
4. INVESTMENTS IN AFFILIATES
The Company's investments in affiliates principally consist of equity investments in limited liability companies in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of these investments. Accordingly, the Company accounts for its investments using the equity method of accounting.
Operating results presented in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements include the Company's proportionate share of net income (loss) from its equity method investments. Summarized financial information of entities

The credit quality of the Company's financing receivables is monitored each reporting period on an individual asset basis using specific information on the counterparties in these transactions. The following represents qualitative and quantitative information on each financing receivable within the applicable portfolios.
The CRE portfolio of financing receivables consists of 1 asset that originated in 2019 and had an amortized cost basis of $0.4 million as of both the adoption date of January 1, 2020 and September 30, 2020. Based on individual credit quality indicators of the counterparty as of the adoption date and September 30, 2020, the most likely outcome of expected cash flows for the asset in a range of possible outcomes (i.e., the single best estimate) was zero and, as a result, the Company recorded a full allowance for credit losses for the financing receivable on adoption of ASC 326 as of January 1, 2020 and as of September 30, 2020.
The Land Operations financing receivables consist of 3 assets. The first originated in 2008 and had an amortized cost basis of $1.6 million as of both the adoption date of January 1, 2020 and September 30, 2020. Based on individual credit quality indicators of the counterparty as of the adoption date and September 30, 2020, the most likely outcome of expected cash flows for the asset in a range of possible outcomes (i.e., the single best estimate) was zero and, as a result, the Company recorded a full allowance for credit losses for the financing receivable on adoption of ASC 326 as of January 1, 2020 and as of September 30, 2020. The second financing receivable within Land Operations was generated in 2016 and had an amortized cost basis of $13.5 million and $11.6 million as of the adoption date of January 1, 2020 and September 30, 2020, respectively. The third financing receivable within Land Operations was generated in 2017 and had an amortized cost basis of $2.6 million as of both the adoption date of January 1, 2020 and September 30, 2020. The second and third financing receivables were evaluated based on the credit quality indicators of the respective counterparties (as well as reasonable and supportable forecasts of future conditions that are relevant to determining the expected collectability of the receivable) as of the adoption date and September 30, 2020 and the estimated allowance for credit losses was calculated using a discounted cash flow approach.
The Company's contract assets represent trade receivables that are due in one year or less that result from revenue transactions from contracts with customers or other related balances that do not meet the definition of financing receivables.
For allowance for credit losses estimated using the discounted cash flow approach, changes in present value attributable to the passage of time are reported as an adjustment to credit loss expense. As a result, the provision for expected credit losses in any given period may be impacted by changes in expected credit losses on future payments or current period collections for receivables on which allowances were recorded in previous periods, both of which may be further impacted or offset by changes in present value attributable to the passage of time.

7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The fair value of the Company's cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and notes receivable with remaining terms less than 12 months approximate their carrying values due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The fair value of the Company's notes receivable with remaining terms greater than 12 months is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis in which the Company uses unobservable inputs such as market interest rates determined by the loan to value and market capitalization rates related to the underlying collateral at which management believes similar loans would be made and classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of these notes approximates the carrying amount of $11.7 million at September 30, 2020. The fair value and carrying value of these notes was $16.1 million at December 31, 2019 (see Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," for reclassifications related to these notes in conjunction with the adoption of ASC 326).
The carrying amount and fair value of the Company's debt at September 30, 2020 was $763.6 million and $758.9 million, respectively, and $704.6 million and $727.3 million at December 31, 2019, respectively. The fair value of debt is calculated by discounting the future cash flows of the debt at rates based on instruments with similar risk, terms and maturities as compared to the Company's existing debt arrangements (Level 2).
The Company carries its interest rate swaps at fair value. See Note 9, "Derivative Instruments," for fair value information regarding the Company's derivative instruments.

The Company believes that funds generated from results of operations, available cash and cash equivalents, and available borrowings under credit facilities will be sufficient to satisfy any maturities of debt due in the next twelve months.
Interest costs are capitalized for certain development and redevelopment projects that have not yet been placed into service. Capitalization of interest commences when development activities and expenditures begin and end upon completion, which is when the asset is ready for its intended use. There were 0 capitalized interest costs related to development activities for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. There were $0.2 million and $0.8 million of capitalized interest costs for the three months ended and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively.

9. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk related to its variable rate interest debt. The Company balances its cost of debt and exposure to interest rates primarily through its mix of fixed and variable rate debt. From time to time, the Company may use interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to interest rate risk.
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
As of September 30, 2020, the Company has 2 interest rate swap agreements designated as a cash flow hedges whose key terms are as follows (dollars in millions):
Effective | Maturity | Fixed Interest | Notional Amount at | Asset (Liability) Fair Value at | Classification on | |||||||||||||||
Date | Date | Rate | September 30, 2020 | September 30, 2020 | December 31, 2019 | Balance Sheet | ||||||||||||||
4/7/2016 | 8/1/2029 | 3.14% | $ | 58.3 | $ | (5.8) | $ | (0.2) | Accrued and other liabilities | |||||||||||
02/13/2020 | 02/27/2023 | 3.15% | $ | 50.0 | $ | (1.5) | N/A | Accrued and other liabilities |
The changes in fair value of the cash flow hedge are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently reclassified into interest expense as interest is incurred on the related-variable rate debt. As of September 30, 2020, the Company expects to reclassify $0.8 million of net gains (losses) on derivative instruments from accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings during the next 12 months.
Non-designated Hedges
As of September 30, 2020, the Company has 1 interest rate swap that has not been designated as a cash flow hedge whose key terms are as follows (dollars in millions):
Effective | Maturity | Fixed Interest | Notional Amount at | Asset (Liability) Fair Value at | Classification on | |||||||||||||||

The Company records gains or losses related to interest rate swaps that have not been designated as cash flow hedges in Interest and other income in its condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company recognized a gain of $0.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. There were 0 amounts recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 related to changes in fair value.
The Company measures all of its interest rate swaps at fair value. The fair values of the Company's interest rate swaps (Level 2) are based on the estimated amounts that the Company would receive or pay to terminate the contracts at the reporting date and are determined using interest rate pricing models and interest rate related observable inputs.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Commitments and other financial arrangements
The Company has various financial commitments and other arrangements including standby letters of credit and bonds that are not recorded as liabilities on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2020:
•Standby letters of credit issued by the Company's lenders under the Company's revolving credit facilities totaled $1.1 million as of September 30, 2020. These letters of credit primarily relate to the Company's workers' compensation plans and construction activities; if drawn upon the Company would be obligated to reimburse the issuer.
•Bonds related to the Company's construction and real estate activities totaled $357.6 million as of September 30, 2020. Approximately $338.3 million represents the face value of construction bonds issued by third party sureties (bid, performance and payment bonds), and the remainder is related to commercial bonds issued by third party sureties (permit, subdivision, license and notary bonds); if drawn upon, the Company would be obligated to reimburse the surety that issued the bond for the amount of the bond, reduced for the work completed to date. As of September 30, 2020, the Company's maximum remaining exposure, in the event of defaults on all existing contractual construction obligations, was approximately $72.7 million.
The Company also provides certain bond indemnities and guarantees of indebtedness for certain of its unconsolidated affiliates that it accounts for as equity method investments (e.g., real estate joint ventures).
•Bond indemnities are provided for the benefit of the surety in exchange for the issuance of surety bonds and cover joint venture construction activities (such as project amenities, roads, utilities, and other infrastructure). Under such bond indemnities, the Company and the joint venture partners agree to indemnify the surety bond issuer from all losses and expenses arising from the failure of the joint venture to complete the specified bonded construction; the Company may be obligated to complete construction of the joint ventures' construction projects if the joint venture does not perform. The maximum potential amount of aggregate future payments is a function of the amount covered by outstanding bonds at the time of default by the joint venture, reduced by the amount of work completed to date.
•Guarantees of indebtedness of an unconsolidated equity method investee relate to a line of credit held by such investee with third party lenders. As of September 30, 2020, the Company's limited guarantees on indebtedness totaled $9.2 million.
The recorded amounts of the bond indemnities and guarantee of indebtedness were not material individually or in the aggregate. Other than obligations described above and those described in the Company's 2019 Form 10-K, obligations of the Company's joint ventures do not have recourse to the Company, and the Company's "at-risk" amounts are limited to its investment.
Legal proceedings and other contingencies
Prior to the sale of approximately 41,000 acres of agricultural land on Maui to Mahi Pono Holdings, LLC ("Mahi Pono") in December 2018, the Company, through East Maui Irrigation Company, LLC ("EMI"), also owned approximately 16,000 acres of watershed lands in East Maui and also held 4 water licenses to approximately 30,000 acres owned by the State of Hawai‘i in East Maui. The sale to Mahi Pono includes the sale of a 50% interest in EMI (which closed February 1, 2019), and provides for the Company and Mahi Pono, through EMI, to jointly continue the existing process to secure a long-term lease from the State for delivery of irrigation water to Mahi Pono for use in Central Maui.
The last of these water license agreements expired in 1986, and all 4 agreements were then extended as revocable permits that were renewed annually. In 2001, a request was made to the State Board of Land and Natural Resources (the "BLNR") to replace these revocable permits with a long-term water lease. Pending the completion by the BLNR of a contested case hearing it ordered to be held on the request for the long-term lease, the BLNR has kept the existing permits on a holdover basis. NaN parties filed a lawsuit on April 10, 2015 (the "Initial Lawsuit") alleging that the BLNR has been renewing the revocable permits annually rather than keeping them in holdover status. The lawsuit asked the court to void the revocable permits and to declare that the renewals were illegally issued without preparation of an environmental assessment ("EA"). In December 2015, the BLNR decided to reaffirm its prior decisions to keep the permits in holdover status. This decision by the BLNR was challenged by the 3 parties. In January 2016, the court ruled in the Initial Lawsuit that the renewals were not subject to the EA requirement, but that the BLNR lacked legal authority to keep the revocable permits in holdover status beyond one year (the "Initial Ruling"). The Initial Ruling was appealed to the Intermediate Court of Appeals ("ICA") of the State of Hawai‘i.
17
In May 2016, while the appeal of the Initial Ruling was pending, the Hawai‘i State Legislature passed House Bill 2501, which specified that the BLNR has the legal authority to issue holdover revocable permits for the disposition of water rights for a period not to exceed three years. The governor signed this bill into law as Act 126 in June 2016. Pursuant to Act 126, the annual authorization of the existing holdover permits was sought and granted by the BLNR in December 2016, November 2017 and November 2018 for calendar years 2017, 2018 and 2019. No extension of Act 126 was approved by the Hawai‘i State Legislature in 2019.
In June 2019, the ICA vacated the Initial Ruling, effectively reversing the determination that the BLNR lacked authority to keep the revocable permits in holdover status beyond one year (the "ICA Ruling"). The ICA remanded the case back to the trial court to determine whether the holdover status of the permits was both (a) "temporary" and (b) in the best interest of the State, as required by statute. The plaintiffs filed a motion with the ICA for reconsideration of its decision, which was denied on July 5, 2019. On September 30, 2019, the plaintiffs filed a request with the Supreme Court of Hawai‘i to review and reverse the ICA Ruling. On November 25, 2019, the Supreme Court of Hawai‘i granted the plaintiffs' request to review the ICA Ruling. On October 11, 2019, the BLNR took up the renewal of all the existing water revocable permits in the state, acting under the ICA Ruling, and approved the continuation of the 4 East Maui water revocable permits for another one-year period through December 31, 2020.
In a separate matter, on December 7, 2018, a contested case request filed by the Sierra Club contesting the BLNR's November 2018 approval of the 2019 revocable permits was denied by the BLNR. On January 7, 2019, Sierra Club filed a lawsuit in the circuit court of the first circuit in Hawai‘i against BLNR, A&B, and EMI, seeking to invalidate the 2019 extension of the revocable permits for, among other things, failure to perform an EA. The lawsuit also seeks to have the BLNR enjoin A&B/EMI from diverting more than 25 million gallons a day until a permit or lease is properly issued by the BLNR, and for the imposition of certain conditions on the revocable permits by the BLNR. The count seeking to invalidate the revocable permits based on the failure to perform an EA has been dismissed by the court, based on the ICA Ruling in the Initial Lawsuit. In connection with A&B’s obligation to continue the existing process to secure a long-term water lease from the State, A&B and EMI will defend against the remaining claims made by the Sierra Club.
The Company is a party to, or may be contingently liable in connection with, other legal actions arising in the normal conduct of its businesses, the outcomes of which, in the opinion of management after consultation with counsel, would not have a material effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements as a whole.
Further note that certain of the Company's properties and assets may become the subject of other types of claims and assessments at various times (e.g., environmental matters based on normal operations of such assets). Depending on the facts and circumstances surrounding such potential claims and assessments, the Company records an accrual if it is deemed probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated/valued as of the date of the financial statements.
11. REVENUE AND CONTRACT BALANCES
The Company disaggregates revenue from contracts with customers by revenue type, as the Company believes it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of the Company's revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. Through its CRE segment, the Company owns and operates a portfolio of commercial real estate properties and generates income as a lessor through leases of such assets. See Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements for further discussion. Revenue by type for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was as follows (in millions):

Total revenues | $ | 77.8 | $ | 89.1 | $ | 232.5 | $ | 327.6 | |||||||||||||||
In the context of guidance on revenue from contracts with customers and arrangements in its scope, the total amount of contract consideration allocated to either wholly unsatisfied or partially satisfied performance obligations was $106.6 million as of September 30, 2020. The Company expects to recognize as revenue approximately 15% - 20% of the remaining contract consideration allocated to either wholly unsatisfied or partially satisfied performance obligations in 2020, with the remaining recognized thereafter.
Timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. Certain construction contracts include retainage provisions that are customary in the industry (i.e., are not for financing purposes) and are included in Accounts receivable and retention, net. The balances billed but not paid by customers pursuant to these provisions generally become due upon completion and acceptance of the project work or products by the customers. Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts represent amounts earned and reimbursable under contracts, but have a conditional right for billing and payment, such as achievement of milestones or completion of the project. When events or conditions indicate that it is probable that the amounts outstanding become unbillable, the transaction price and associated contract asset is reduced. Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts are billings to customers on contracts in advance of work performed, including advance payments negotiated as a contract condition. Generally, unearned project-related costs will be earned over the next twelve months.

For the three months ended and nine months ended September 30, 2020 the Company recognized revenue of $1.2 million and $7.2 million, respectively, related to the Company's contract liabilities reported as of January 1, 2020.
12. LEASES - THE COMPANY AS LESSOR
The Company leases land and buildings to third parties under operating leases. Such activity is primarily composed of operating leases within its CRE segment.
Beginning in the quarter ended June 30, 2020, the Company began entering into rent relief arrangements with certain of its tenants due to the disruption from COVID-19 in the form of rent deferrals or other relief modifications that resulted in
19
changes to fixed contractual lease payments for specified months. Such other relief modifications included changing the nature of payments from fixed to variable (i.e., variable based on a percentage of the tenant's sales, typically subject to a minimum "floor" amount) or, in some cases, payment forgiveness. Consistent with lease accounting guidance and recent interpretations provided by the FASB in the Lease Modification Q&A, the Company elected to treat such eligible lease concessions (i.e., such rent deferrals, fixed-to-variable modifications or payment forgiveness arrangements that do not result in a substantial increase in the rights of the lessor or obligations of the lessee) outside of the lease accounting modification framework.
For rent deferrals, consistent with an acceptable method described in the Lease Modification Q&A, the Company accounts for the event as if no changes to the lease contract were made and continues to record lease receivables and recognize income during the deferral period. For the other relief modifications mentioned above that resulted in reductions to fixed contractual lease payments, consistent with the Lease Modification Q&A, the Company reports, for periods covered by the modification, reduced rental income (i.e., revenue) equal to the agreed-upon amounts (offset by any variable lease payments).
The Company continues to assess collectability on all such amounts due under leases and only recognizes revenue to the extent such amounts are probable of collection (or payment is received). During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company projected a higher amount of uncollectable tenant billings due to COVID-19 and, as a result, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded reductions in revenue of $5.6 million and $12.2 million, respectively, related to aggregate charges for CRE accounts receivable and unbilled straight-line lease receivables for which the Company assessed that the tenant's future payment of amounts due under leases was not probable. Further, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded reductions of revenue of $0.7 million and $3.4 million, respectively, related to the allowance for doubtful accounts for other impacted operating lease receivables.
As a result of COVID-19, certain tenants experiencing economic difficulties have sought and may continue to seek current and future rent relief, which may be provided in the form of additional rent deferrals or other relief modifications, among other possible agreements. The Company is evaluating each request on a case-by-case basis and will apply lease accounting guidance (including the Lease Modification Q&A) consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances. The future impact of any potential rent concessions in the context of lease accounting guidance and the Lease Modification Q&A is dependent upon the extent of relief granted to tenants as a result of COVID-19 in future periods and the elections made by the Company at the time of entering into such agreements.

13. LEASES - THE COMPANY AS LESSEE
There have been no material changes from the Company's leasing activities as a lessee described in Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements included in Item 8 of the Company's 2019 Form 10-K. Operating lease cost was $1.2 million and $1.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Operating lease cost was $3.5 million and $5.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Finance lease cost was $0.4 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Finance lease cost was $1.0 million and $0.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
14. SHARE-BASED PAYMENT AWARDS
The 2012 Incentive Compensation Plan ("2012 Plan") allows for the granting of stock options, restricted stock units and common stock. The shares of common stock authorized to be issued under the 2012 Plan may be drawn from the shares of the Company's authorized but unissued common stock or from shares of its common stock that the Company acquires, including shares purchased on the open market or private transactions. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company granted approximately 279,400 restricted stock unit awards with a weighted average grant date fair value of $22.26 under the 2012 Plan. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company granted approximately 264,000 restricted stock units with a weighted average grant date fair value of $20.05 under the 2012 Plan.
The fair value of the Company's time-based awards is determined using the Company's stock price on the date of grant. The fair value of the Company's market-based awards is estimated using the Company's stock price on the date of grant and the probability of vesting using a Monte Carlo simulation with the following weighted-average assumptions:
2020 Grants | 2019 Grants | |||||||||||||

The Company has made 0 contributions to its defined benefit pension plans during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and does 0t expect to make any such contributions in the current fiscal year.
16. INCOME TAXES
The Company has been organized and operates in a manner that enables it to qualify, and believes it will continue to qualify, as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. The Company’s effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 differed from the effective tax rate for the same period in 2019, primarily due to the benefit from interest income receivable on IRS tax refunds in 2019.
As of September 30, 2020, tax years 2016 and later are open to audit by the tax authorities. As of September 30, 2020, the Company has 1 open tax examination of the 2016 Hawaii state income tax return of a joint venture investment. The Company believes that the result of this audit will not have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.
17. EARNINGS PER SHARE ("EPS")
Basic earnings per common share excludes dilution and is calculated by dividing net earnings allocated to common shares by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated by dividing net earnings allocated to common shares by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, as adjusted for the potential dilutive effect of non-participating share-based awards as well as adjusted by the number of additional shares, if any, that would have been outstanding had the potentially dilutive common shares been issued.

21. LONG-LIVED ASSETS HELD FOR SALE OR DISPOSED OF
The following represents disclosures for long-lived assets (disposal groups) that either have been disposed of or were classified as held for sale during the periods presented.
Port Allen solar power facility asset sale
As described in Item 2 of the Company's 2019 Form 10-K, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, McBryde Resources, Inc., has produced renewable energy through hydroelectric and solar power facilities on Kauai. Energy generated from these hydroelectric and solar power facilities has been used for A&B-related operations or sold to Kauai Island Utility Cooperative. Such activities are included and reported in the Land Operations segment.
In connection with its strategy to simplify its business, during the quarter ended September 30, 2020, the Company executed a purchase and sale agreement and consummated the sale of assets related to its solar power facility in Port Allen on Kauai for purchase consideration (measured at the date of disposal) of approximately $17.1 million. As a result, the Company derecognized the carrying value of the net assets of the disposal group and recorded a gain on disposal of approximately $8.9 million which is included in Gain (loss) on disposal of non-core assets, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The disposal was not considered individually significant and does not qualify for presentation and disclosure as a discontinued operation.
GP/RM Prestress, LLC ("GPRM") sale of subsidiary
As described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in the Company's 2019 Form 10-K, as of December 31, 2019, the Company owned a 51% interest in GPRM, a provider of precast/prestressed concrete products and services, which the Company consolidated due to holding a controlling financial interest through its majority voting interests and reported as part of the M&C segment. Subsequent to the quarter ended March 31, 2020, GPRM met the criteria to be classified as held for sale. As a result, in the quarter ended June 30, 2020, the Company recorded a write-down of $5.6 million (based on fair value less cost to sell) related to the disposal group which was included in Impairment of assets related to Materials & Construction in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
25
On June 29, 2020, the Company consummated the sale of its 51% ownership interest in GPRM to an unrelated third-party through an LLC interest purchase agreement in exchange for cash proceeds received/to be received of approximately $5.0 million. In connection with the consummation of the disposal of GPRM, the Company recorded an entry to deconsolidate the carrying amounts of the GPRM disposal group and recognized a net loss of $0.1 million, which was included in Gain (loss) on disposal of non-core assets, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The GPRM disposal was not considered individually significant and does not qualify for presentation and disclosure as a discontinued operation. Subsequent to the disposal of GPRM, the Company's goodwill balance was $10.5 million and $15.4 million as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, of which $8.7 million relates to the Commercial Real Estate segment and the remainder relates to a separate reporting unit within the M&C segment, GP Roadway Solutions, Inc.
22. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
As described in Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements in the Company's 2019 Form 10-K, the GLP Asphalt revolving credit facility had a maturity date of October 5, 2020. Subsequent to September 30, 2020, the GLP Asphalt revolving credit facility maturity was extended to January 26, 2021.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW
Reportable segments
The Company operates three segments: Commercial Real Estate; Land Operations; and Materials & Construction. A description of each of the Company's reporting segments is as follows:
•Commercial Real Estate ("CRE") functions as a vertically integrated real estate investment company with core competencies in investments and acquisitions (i.e., raising capital, identifying opportunities and acquiring properties); construction and development (i.e., designing and ground-up development of new properties or repositioning and redevelopment of existing properties); in-house leasing and property management (i.e., executing new and renegotiating renewal lease arrangements, managing its properties' day-to-day operations and maintaining positive tenant relationships); and asset management (i.e., maintaining, upgrading and enhancing its portfolio of high-quality improved properties). The segment's preferred asset classes include improved properties in retail and industrial spaces and also urban ground leases. Its focus within improved retail properties, in particular, is on grocery-anchored neighborhood shopping centers that meet the daily needs of Hawai‘i citizens. Through its core competencies and with its experience and relationships in Hawai‘i, the Company seeks to create special places and experiences for Hawai‘i residents and attempts to provide venues and opportunities for tenants to thrive. Income from this segment is principally generated by owning, operating and leasing real estate assets.
•Land Operations involves the monetization and management of the Company's landholdings and land-related assets, pursuant to which primary activities of the segment include the following: planning and entitlement of real property to facilitate sales; selling undeveloped land; and other operationally-diverse legacy business activities to employ its landholdings at their highest and best use. Financial results from this segment are principally derived from real estate development sales, land parcel sales, income/loss from real estate joint ventures, renewable energy, trucking services and other legacy business activities.
•Materials & Construction ("M&C") operates as Hawai‘i's largest asphalt paving contractor and is one of the state's largest natural materials and infrastructure construction companies. Such activities are primarily conducted through the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Grace Pacific LLC ("Grace Pacific"), a materials and construction company in Hawai‘i.
Simplification strategy
As a result of its conversion to a REIT and consequent de-emphasis of non-REIT operating businesses, the Company has established a strategy to simplify its business, which includes ongoing efforts to accelerate the monetization of land and related assets and also includes evaluating strategic options for the eventual monetization of some or all of its Materials & Construction businesses.
While the Company continues to evaluate options for the Grace Pacific paving business, at the close of the quarter ended June 30, 2020, the Company consummated the sale of one of Grace Pacific's subsidiary operations, GP/RM Prestress, LLC ("GPRM"), a provider of precast/prestressed concrete products and services (which the Company historically consolidated through the disposal date due to holding a controlling financial interest through its majority voting interests). In connection with this sale and disposal, the Company recognized a write-down of $5.6 million (based on fair value less cost to sell) related to GPRM which was included in Impairment of assets related to Materials & Construction in the condensed consolidated statements of operations in the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
Related to the Land Operations segment, during the quarter ended September 30, 2020, the Company executed a purchase and sale agreement and consummated the sale of assets related to its solar power facility in Port Allen on Kauai for purchase consideration (measured at the date of disposal) of approximately $17.1 million. In connection with the sale, the Company recorded a gain on disposal of approximately $8.9 million which was included in Gain (loss) on disposal of non-core assets, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Moreover, related to its unconsolidated equity method investments in joint venture development projects at Kukui‘ula, the Company continues its evaluation of opportunities to monetize these investments or, in conjunction with the joint venture partners, its evaluation of a range of alternative strategies to accelerate the monetization of the land in the joint venture projects. Any potential transaction related to either the investments or the assets within the joint venture projects would be dependent upon a number of external factors that may be beyond the Company's and/or joint venture projects' control, including, among other factors, market conditions, industry trends and the interest of third parties in the Kukui‘ula development projects. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any of the options evaluated will be pursued or completed. Further, there can be no
28
assurance that the outcome of the evaluation of strategic alternatives or any potential transaction will result in the Company being able to maintain the carrying value of the Kukui‘ula joint venture development projects.
Coronavirus outbreak
In December 2019, COVID-19 was first reported in Wuhan, China, and on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted the global economy and has contributed to significant volatility in financial markets. Considerable uncertainty surrounds COVID-19 and its effects on the population, as well as the effectiveness of any responses taken by government authorities. The pandemic resulted in a significant decline in Hawai‘i tourism and increase in business closures during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020; it has significantly impacted the Company's business due largely to the extreme hardships facing its retail tenants. The ultimate extent of the impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity and capital resources will largely depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, the severity of economic disruptions and resulting impact on economic growth/recession, the response by all levels of government in their efforts to contain the outbreak and to mitigate the economic disruptions, the impact on travel and tourism behavior and the impact on consumer confidence and spending, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be reasonably predicted.
As of October 23, 2020, all of the Company's properties within its CRE portfolio remain open and the Company has estimated that approximately 95% of its tenants (based on total lease billings in October 2020) remain open and operating in some capacity. Further as of this date, the CRE portfolio tenants have paid approximately 81% of their third quarter billings and 75% of their October lease billings (which includes base rents and recoveries from tenants). Within this population, the Company's grocer tenants (designated as essential businesses and located within its grocery-anchored neighborhood shopping centers), have paid approximately 90% of their third quarter billings and approximately 85% of their October lease billings.
As a result of COVID-19, certain tenants experiencing economic difficulties have sought and may continue to seek current and future rent relief, which may be provided in the form of rent deferrals or other relief modifications that result in changes to fixed contractual lease payments for specific months, among other possible arrangements.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2020, rent assistance provided to certain tenants primarily consisted of rent deferrals which varied in terms of months covered and the repayment period (e.g., on a short-term basis to be repaid over the second half of 2020 or on a long-term basis to be repaid over 2021). During the quarter ended September 30, 2020, rent assistance arrangements involved additional deferrals as well as other relief modifications, including modifying the nature of rent payments from fixed to variable (i.e., variable based on a percentage of the tenant's sales, typically subject to a minimum "floor" amount) or, in some cases, payment forgiveness.
As of September 30, 2020, rent assistance arrangements offered and agreed to with tenants as a result of COVID-19 were as follows (dollars in millions):
Number of tenants | Total impacted lease billings | ||||||||||
Rent deferrals | 199 | $ | 4.5 | ||||||||
Other relief modifications1 | 81 | $ | 2.6 | ||||||||
1 Certain tenants that were provided other relief modifications may have also been subject to rent deferrals. | |||||||||||
Additionally, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company projected a higher amount of uncollectable tenant billings due to COVID-19. The reductions in revenue the Company recorded as a result of such
29
assessments were as follows (in millions):
Three Months Ended September 30, 2020 | Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 | ||||||||||
Impact to billed accounts receivable | $ | 4.0 | $ | 8.4 | |||||||
Impact to straight-line lease receivables | 1.6 | 3.8 | |||||||||
Total revenue reductions - tenant collectability assessments | 5.6 | 12.2 | |||||||||
Provision for allowance for doubtful accounts1 | 0.7 | 3.4 | |||||||||
Total revenue reductions | $ | 6.3 | $ | 15.6 | |||||||
1 Related to other impacted operating lease receivables. | |||||||||||
The Company’s financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 have been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic resulting in reductions in operating profit and its non-GAAP performance measures. As such, the comparability of the Company’s results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 to future periods may be significantly impacted by the effects of the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The causes of material changes in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019 are described below or in the Analysis of Operating Revenue and Profit by Segment sections below.
Operating revenue for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020 decreased 12.7%, or $11.3 million, to $77.8 million, primarily due to lower revenue from each of the Commercial Real Estate, Land Operations and Materials & Construction segments.
32
Cost of operations for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020 decreased 7.1% or $5.1 million, to $66.6 million, primarily due to decreases in costs incurred by the Materials & Construction and Commercial Real Estate segment partially offset by an increase in costs incurred by the Land Operations segment.
Selling, general and administrative for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020 decreased 12.0%, or $1.6 million, to $11.7 million, primarily due to lower corporate overhead costs, as well as lower costs incurred in each of the Commercial Real Estate, Land Operations and Materials & Construction segments. Such cost reductions were due primarily to lower personnel-related costs.
Impairment of assets related to Materials & Construction of $49.7 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 2019 was driven by a non-cash impairment to the carrying value of the Company's goodwill balance. There was no such impairment in the current quarter.
Gain (loss) on disposal of assets, net of $9.0 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 2019 was due primarily to the gain of $8.9 million resulting from the sale of the Company's solar power facility in Port Allen on Kauai.

Selling, general and administrative for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 decreased 23.5%, or $10.6 million, to $34.5 million, primarily due to lower corporate overhead costs, as well as lower costs incurred in the Materials & Construction and CRE segments. Corporate overhead costs decreased from the prior period primarily due to lower personnel-related costs.
Impairment of assets related to Materials & Construction of $5.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was related to the sale and disposal of GPRM at the close of the quarter ended June 30, 2020 as described above.
Gain (loss) on disposal of assets, net of $9.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily driven by the consummation of the sale of assets related to the Company's solar power facility in Port Allen on Kauai.

Commercial Real Estate operating revenue decreased 16.4% or $7.0 million, to $35.7 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020, as compared to the third quarter ended September 30, 2019. Operating profit decreased 38.9%, or $7.0 million, to $11.0 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020, as compared to the third quarter ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in operating revenue and operating profit from the prior year is primarily driven by charges recorded related to the collectability of tenant billings as a result of COVID-19, as well as the impact of other relief modifications and other adjustments provided in the period. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded reductions in revenue of $5.6 million related to accounts receivable and unbilled straight-line lease receivables for tenants whose future payment of amounts due under leases was no longer considered probable; $2.6 million related to the impact of other relief modifications (e.g., rent forgiveness) and other adjustments provided in the period; and $0.7 million related to the allowance for doubtful accounts for other impacted operating lease receivables. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $0.6 million from the prior year's quarter primarily driven by lower personnel cost.
Commercial Real Estate interest and other income (expense), net from the prior year was primarily driven by miscellaneous other income recognized in settlements and release of liabilities related to tenants at Ho‘okele Shopping Center and The Shops at Kukui‘ula. There were no such amounts in the current year.

Commercial Real Estate operating revenue decreased 4.6% or $5.5 million, to $113.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Operating profit decreased 25.1%, or $12.7 million, to $37.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in each of Commercial Real Estate operating revenue and operating profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 reflects revenue charges of $15.6 million related to the collectability of tenant billings that the Company recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 due primarily to COVID-19, as well as the impact of other relief modifications (e.g., rent forgiveness) and other adjustments provided in the period of $2.6 million (described above). Such impacts were partially offset by the impacts of properties acquired in the first half of 2019 and redevelopment/new development projects commencing operations. Such impacts also drove the increase in operating costs and expenses of 11.7% or $7.5 million to $71.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $2.2 million from the prior year primarily driven by lower personnel cost.
Commercial Real Estate interest and other income (expense), net from the prior year was primarily driven by interest income earned on §1031 exchange funds from the sale of agricultural land on Maui in 2018 (which were utilized as of the end of the quarter ended June 30, 2019).
Commercial Real Estate Portfolio Acquisitions and Dispositions
There were no acquisitions of CRE improved properties or ground lease interests in land during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2020.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company made the following dispositions within one of its commercial real estate properties under a purchase option held and executed by the then-current tenant as follows (dollars in millions):

Leasing Activity
During the third quarter ended September 30, 2020, the Company signed 16 new leases and 54 renewal leases, covering 174,700 square feet of GLA. The 16 new leases comprise 26,400 square feet with an average annual base rent of $21.84 per square foot. Of the signed 16 new leases, three leases with total GLA of 2,900 square feet were considered
37
comparable (i.e., leases executed for units that have been vacated in the previous 12 months for comparable space and comparable lease terms) and, for these three leases, resulted in a 24.5% average base rent decrease over comparable expiring leases. The 54 renewal leases comprise 148,300 square feet with an average annual base rent of $35.17 per square foot. Of the signed 54 renewal leases, 20 were considered comparable and resulted in a 6.8% average base rent increase over comparable expiring leases.

1 Other operating revenue includes revenue related to trucking, renewable energy and diversified agriculture.
Third quarter of 2020: Land Operations revenue during the quarter ended September 30, 2020 was $7.7 million and included the sales of two development parcels at Maui Business Park II. Revenue also included other operating revenue related to the Company's legacy business activities in the Land Operations segment (e.g., trucking service, renewable energy and diversified agribusiness operations). Land Operations operating costs and expenses of $13.0 million included a charge of $6.7M related to the estimated costs of probable remediation work for reservoirs on Kauai.
Further, as noted above, during the quarter ended September 30, 2020, the Company executed a purchase and sale agreement and consummated the sale of assets related to its solar power facility in Port Allen on Kauai for purchase consideration (measured at the date of disposal) of approximately $17.1 million. In connection with the sale, the Company recorded a gain on disposal of approximately $8.9 million.
Land Operations operating profit of $3.4 million during the third quarter ended September 30, 2020 was due primarily to the impact of these aforementioned events (including margins realized for the sales activity), as well as profits generated from the operations of the segment's other legacy business activities.
Third quarter of 2019: Land Operations revenue was $8.5 million and included the impact of sales of 0.5 acres at Maui Business Park II and a 1-acre unimproved parcel on the island of Kauai. Revenue also included other operating revenues related to the Company's trucking service, renewable energy, and diversified agribusiness operations.
Land Operations operating profit of $2.8 million during the third quarter ended September 30, 2019 was composed of the margins on the Maui Business Park II development lot and Kauai unimproved property, as well as income from the operations of the Company's trucking service and renewable energy business. The Land Operations segment results also included $0.2 million of other net expense primarily consisting of other pension expense.

First nine months of 2020: Land Operations revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $29.0 million and included the sales of development parcels at Maui Business Park II and unimproved land sales on the island of Kauai and Maui. Revenue also included other operating revenue related to the Company's legacy business activities in the Land Operations segment (e.g., trucking service, renewable energy, and diversified agribusiness operations).
Land Operations operating profit of $13.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was composed of the margins on the sales noted above, as well as profits generated from the operations of the segment's other legacy business activities. Other primary drivers of operating profit during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 included the gain of $8.9 million realized on the sale of the Company's solar power facility in Port Allen during the third quarter, a charge of $6.7M related to the estimated costs of probable remediation work for reservoirs on Kauai, as well as the impact of a favorable resolution of certain contingent liabilities during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 related to the sale of agricultural land on Maui in 2018.
First nine months of 2019: Land Operations revenue was $82.4 million and included the impact of the sales of 42 acres of land and related improvements in Wailea, the remaining 44 units in Increment 1 of the Kamalani planned community, two Kahala lots, approximately 800 acres of agricultural land on Maui, two Maui Business Park lots and a 1-acre parcel on the island of Kauai. Revenue also included other operating revenue related to the Company's trucking service, renewable energy, and diversified agribusiness operations. Operating profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 of $15.9 million was primarily driven by the sales of land and related improvements mentioned above and also included real estate development joint venture earnings of $5.3 million, a gain of $2.6 million related to the sale of 50% interest in EMI and $2.2 million in pension related expenses
Known Trends, Events and Uncertainties
The asset class mix of real estate sales in any given year or quarter can be diverse and may include developed residential real estate, developable subdivision lots, undeveloped land, or property sold under threat of condemnation. Further, the timing of property or parcel sales can significantly affect operating results in a given period.
Additionally, the operating profit reported in each quarter does not necessarily follow a percentage of sales trend because the cost basis of property sold can differ significantly between transactions. For example, the sale of undeveloped land and vacant parcels in Hawai‘i generally provides higher margins than does the sale of developed property, due to the low historical cost basis of the Company's land owned in Hawai‘i.
As a result, direct year-over-year comparison of the Land Operations segment results may not provide a consistent, measurable indicator of future performance. Further, Land Operations revenue trends, cash flows from the sales of real estate, and the amount of real estate held for sale on the Company's balance sheet do not necessarily indicate future profitability trends for this segment.

1 Intersegment operating charges, net for Materials & Construction is primarily from the Commercial Real Estate segment and are eliminated in the consolidated results of operations.
2 Backlog represents the total amount of revenue that Grace Pacific and Maui Paving, LLC, a 50-percent-owned unconsolidated affiliate, expect to realize on contracts awarded. Backlog primarily consists of asphalt paving and, to a lesser extent, Grace Pacific’s consolidated revenue from its construction-and traffic control-related products. Backlog includes estimated revenue from the remaining portion of contracts not yet completed, as well as revenue from approved change orders. The length of time that projects remain in backlog can span from a few days for a small volume of work to 36 months for large paving contracts and contracts performed in phases. As of September 30, 2020 and 2019, these amounts include $57.4 million and $21.0 million of opportunity backlog consisting of government contracts in which Grace Pacific has been confirmed to be the lowest bidder and formal communication of the award is perfunctory at the time of this disclosure. Circumstances outside the Company's control such as procurement or technical protests may arise that prevent the finalization of such contracts. Maui Paving's backlog at September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $7.3 million and $7.2 million, respectively.
Materials & Construction revenue was $34.4 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to $37.9 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 2019. Operating profit was $1.3 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to operating loss of $57.9 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 2019. During the quarter ended September 30, 2020, the segment operating profit was primarily driven by improved results from Grace paving and quarry operations during the third quarter ended September 30, 2020. During the quarter ended September 30, 2019, the segment operating loss was primarily driven by the $49.7 million non-cash impairment to the carrying value of the Company's goodwill balance.
Backlog at September 30, 2020 was $114.0 million (as a result of the disposal of GPRM at the end of the second quarter ended June 30, 2020, this metric excludes backlog related to GPRM). On a comparable basis (i.e., adjusted to exclude GPRM backlog of $24.5 million as of September 30, 2019), backlog increased from $93.9 million at September 30, 2019. The increase in backlog was primarily driven by an increase in the amount of marketed bid opportunities and an improvement in the rate of bids won by the Company.
Related to the calculation of the backlog metric, as noted in prior periods, certain agencies award "maintenance contracts" under which a contractor can secure all paving work within a certain geographic area, but jobs are not identified in advance (and, therefore, will not meet the requirement for inclusion in backlog). Under this maintenance contract system, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company also secured significant maintenance contract awards, including the Oahu State Pavement Preservation maintenance contracts for the entire island of Oahu. Procedurally, the Company must receive specific work orders that would meet the definition of backlog and provide actionable scopes of work, including quantities, location, materials and project economics.

1 Intersegment operating charges, net for Materials & Construction is primarily from the Commercial Real Estate segment and are eliminated in the consolidated results of operations.
Materials & Construction revenue was $90.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $126.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Operating loss was $10.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to operating loss of $66.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the segment operating loss was primarily driven by the write-down of $5.6 million (based on fair value less cost to sell) related to GPRM that was recorded in advance of the sale and disposal consummated at the close of the quarter ended June 30, 2020. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the segment operating loss of $66.7 million was primarily driven by the $49.7 million non-cash impairment to the carrying value of the Company's goodwill balance.
The remaining operating loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was due primarily to the impact of low paving volumes due in part to government agency-imposed delays and the impact of COVID-19 (including travel restrictions and resource availability for projects on neighbor islands) during the second quarter; these losses were only partially offset by the operating profit generated in the third quarter (described above). The Company is continuing to monitor the performance of the M&C segment in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, based on the inherent uncertainty in the general economic environment, there can be no assurance that the carrying values associated with the long-lived assets and goodwill will be recoverable and impairments on such long-lived assets and goodwill may be required.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company uses non-GAAP measures when evaluating operating performance because management believes that they provide additional insight into the Company's and segments' core operating results, and/or the underlying business trends affecting performance on a consistent and comparable basis from period to period. These measures generally are provided to investors as an additional means of evaluating the performance of ongoing core operations. The non-GAAP financial information presented herein should be considered supplemental to, and not as a substitute for or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
FFO is presented by the Company as a widely used non-GAAP measure of operating performance for real estate companies. FFO is defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("Nareit") December 2018 Financial Standards White Paper as follows: net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding (1) depreciation and amortization related to real estate, (2) gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, (3) gains and losses from change in control and (4) impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity.
42
The Company believes that, subject to the following limitations, FFO provides a supplemental measure to net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP) for comparing its performance and operations to those of other REITs. FFO does not represent an alternative to net income calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, nor does it represent cash available to pay distributions and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities, determined in accordance with GAAP, as a measure of our liquidity. The Company presents different forms of FFO:
•"Core FFO" represents a non-GAAP measure relevant to the operating performance of the Company's commercial real estate business (i.e., its core business). Core FFO is calculated by adjusting CRE operating profit to exclude items noted above (i.e., depreciation and amortization related to real estate included in CRE operating profit) and to make further adjustments to include expenses not included in CRE operating profit but that are necessary to accurately reflect the operating performance of its core business (i.e., corporate expenses and interest expense attributable to this core business). The Company believes such adjustments facilitate the comparable measurement of the Company's core operating performance over time. The Company believes that Core FFO, which is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure, provides an additional and useful means to assess and compare the operating performance of REITs.
•FFO represents the Nareit-defined non-GAAP measure for the operating performance of the Company as a whole. The Company's calculation refers to net income (loss) available to A&B common shareholders as its starting point in the calculation of FFO.
The Company presents both non-GAAP measures and reconciles each to the most directly-comparable GAAP measure as well as reconciling FFO to Core FFO. The Company's FFO and Core FFO may not be comparable to FFO non-GAAP measures reported by other REITs. These other REITs may not define the term in accordance with the current Nareit definition or may interpret the current Nareit definition differently.
NOI is a non-GAAP measure used internally in evaluating the unlevered performance of the Company's Commercial Real Estate portfolio. The Company believes NOI provides useful information to investors regarding the Company's financial condition and results of operations because it reflects only those cash income and expense items that are incurred at the property level, and when compared across periods, can be used to determine trends in earnings of the Company's properties as this measure is not affected by non-cash revenue and expense recognition items, the impact of depreciation and amortization expenses or other gains or losses that relate to the Company's ownership of properties. The Company believes the exclusion of these items from operating profit (loss) is useful because the resulting measure captures the actual revenue generated and actual expenses incurred in operating the Company's Commercial Real Estate portfolio as well as trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, and operating costs. NOI should not be viewed as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
NOI represents total Commercial Real Estate cash-based operating revenues (i.e., billings for which collectability is deemed probable), less direct property-related operating expenses. The calculation of NOI excludes the impact of depreciation and amortization (including amortization of maintenance capital, tenant improvements and leasing commissions); straight-line lease adjustments (including amortization of lease incentives); amortization of favorable/unfavorable lease assets/liabilities; lease termination income; other income and expense, net; selling, general, administrative and other expenses; and impairment of commercial real estate assets.
The Company reports NOI and Occupancy on a Same-Store basis, which includes the results of properties that were owned and operated for the entirety of the prior calendar year and current reporting period, year-to-date. The Same-Store pool excludes properties under development or redevelopment and also excludes properties acquired or sold during either of the comparable reporting periods. While there is management judgment involved in classifications, new developments and redevelopments are moved into the Same-Store pool after one full calendar year of stabilized operation. New developments and redevelopments are generally considered stabilized upon the initial attainment of 90% occupancy. Properties included in held for sale are excluded from Same-Store.
The Company believes that reporting on a Same-Store basis provides investors with additional information regarding the operating performance of comparable assets separate from other factors (such as the effect of developments, redevelopments, acquisitions or dispositions).
To emphasize, the Company's methods of calculating non-GAAP measures may differ from methods employed by other companies and thus may not be comparable to such other companies.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Overview
The Company's primary liquidity needs have historically been to support and fund shareholder distributions; satisfaction of its regular debt service requirements and maturities under its notes payable and other debt arrangements; working capital requirements; and capital expenditures, commercial real estate acquisitions and real estate developments. The Company's principal sources of liquidity have been available cash and cash equivalent balances; cash flows provided by operating activities; and borrowing capacity under its various credit facilities.
The Company's operating income (loss) is generated by its subsidiaries. There are no material restrictions on the ability of the Company's wholly owned subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other distributions to the Company. The Company regularly evaluates investment opportunities, including development-for-hold projects, commercial real estate acquisitions, joint venture investments, share repurchases, business acquisitions and other strategic transactions to increase shareholder value. The Company cannot predict whether or when it may make investments or what impact any such transactions could have on the Company's results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.
As noted above, the COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted global commercial activity; has contributed to significant volatility in financial markets; and both its near-term and long-term economic impacts remain uncertain. As a result, the Company proactively drew $120 million on its credit facility at the end of the first quarter ended March 31, 2020 to ensure it had ample access to capital and increase flexibility (and, at the end of the second quarter ended June 30, 2020, elected to repay $50 million of the amounts outstanding, in part, with proceeds from asset monetization efforts in the quarter). Additionally, the Company announced in the second quarter ended June 30, 2020 that it has temporarily suspended quarterly dividend distributions. The Company will continue to monitor its financial performance and economic outlook each quarter with the intention of paying 100% of REIT taxable income, and ensuring compliance with REIT taxable income distribution requirements for the full year.
Cash Flows
Cash flows provided by operations were $37.2 million and $104.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Cash flows from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were primarily driven by the cash generated from the CRE segment, which represents the Company's core business. Cash flows from the Land Operations segment has decreased as compared to the prior year comparable period due to Land Operations successfully closing out of two development-for-sale projects in 2019 (resulting in a lower volume of comparable development-for-sale projects in the current period).
Cash flows provided by investing activities was $20.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to cash flows used in investing activities of $238.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The nine months ended September 30, 2020 included cash proceeds from the disposal of property, investments and other assets of $27.1 million (which was primarily driven by the consummation of sales related to the Company's solar power facility in Port Allen on Kauai and also its former GPRM subsidiary described above), cash outlays of $17.7 million related to capital expenditures and cash returns of $11.1 million received from investments in affiliates and other investments as cash distributions. The nine months ended September 30, 2019 included cash outlays of $250.2 million related to capital expenditures which was largely driven by $218.4 million related to the Company's acquisition of five commercial real estate assets.
As it relates to the CRE segment, the Company differentiates capital expenditures as follows:
•Growth Capital Expenditures: Property acquisition, development and redevelopment activity to generate income and cash flow growth.
•Maintenance Capital Expenditures: Activity necessary to maintain building value, the current income stream and position in the market.
Capital expenditures for the respective periods were as follows:

1 Excludes capital expenditures for real estate developments to be held and sold as real estate development inventory, which are classified in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows as operating activities and are excluded from the tables above.
Given the uncertainty around the duration and economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company is not able to project capital expenditures in 2020 related to any of its segments. However, for 2020, the Company anticipates activity related to property acquisitions, development and redevelopment will decline over the prior year, and the Company expects building/area improvements and tenant space improvements to be consistent or lower than 2019 expenditures.
Net cash flows provided by financing activities was $44.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, as compared to net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 of $93.2 million. The change in cash flows from financing activities in 2020 as compared to 2019 was due primarily to the Company drawing $120 million on its credit facility as a safeguard due to uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic during the first quarter ended March 31, 2020 (offset by the subsequent election to repay $50 million in the second quarter ended June 30, 2020).
Other Sources of Liquidity
In addition to cash and cash equivalents of $117.1 million as of September 30, 2020, other sources of liquidity for the Company include trade receivables, contracts retention, and inventories (excluding parts, materials and supplies), totaling $76.2 million at September 30, 2020. Further, the Company's revolving credit and term facilities provide additional sources of liquidity for working capital requirements or investment opportunities on a short-term as well as longer-term basis. With respect to the revolving credit facility, as of September 30, 2020, the Company had $181.0 million of borrowings outstanding, $1.1 million letters of credit issued against and $267.9 million of available capacity on such revolving credit facility.
Known Trends, Events and Uncertainties
As noted above, the COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted the global economy; has contributed to significant volatility in financial markets; and both its near-term and long-term economic impacts remain uncertain. This uncertainty includes the potential need for additional capital resources to maintain the Company's business and operations during a period of potential declining or delayed rent payments from CRE tenants and/or potential declining revenue from its other businesses.
The Company's ability to retain outstanding borrowings and utilize remaining amounts available under its revolving credit facility will depend on its continued compliance with the applicable financial covenants and other terms of the Company's notes payable and other debt arrangements. The Company was in compliance with its financial covenants for all outstanding balances as of September 30, 2020. However, as a result of the various uncertainties and factors surrounding COVID-19, the Company may be unable to continue to maintain compliance with certain of its financial covenants. Failure to maintain compliance with its financial covenants or obtain waivers or agree to modifications with its lenders would have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial condition. The Company intends to closely monitor the impact of COVID-19 on its business and intends to operate in compliance with these covenants or seek to obtain waivers or modifications to these financial covenants to enable the Company to maintain compliance.
As of September 30, 2020, the Company had $14.5 million of future payments related to notes payable and other debt maturing/coming due in the next twelve months (based on the filing date of this report) and $14.7 million of future payments related to notes payable and other debt maturing/coming due in 2021.
Based on its current outlook, the Company believes that funds generated from results of operations; available cash and cash equivalents; and available borrowings under credit facilities will be sufficient to finance the Company's business requirements for the next twelve months, including debt service and maturities under its notes payable and other debt arrangements; working capital; capital expenditures; and distributions to shareholders. However, as the circumstances underlying its current outlook may change, the Company will continue to actively monitor the situation and may take further actions that it determines is in the best interest of its business, financial condition and liquidity and capital resources.

Tax-Deferred Real Estate Exchanges
Sales: During the third quarter ended September 30, 2020, there were no cash proceeds from sales activity that qualified for potential tax-deferral treatment under Internal Revenue Code §1031 or §1033.
Purchases: During the third quarter ended September 30, 2020, there were no acquisitions utilizing proceeds from tax-deferred sales or condemnations.
Proceeds from §1031 tax-deferred sales are held in escrow pending future use to purchase new real estate assets. The proceeds from §1033 condemnations are held by the Company until the funds are redeployed. As of September 30, 2020, there are no cash proceeds from tax-deferred sales and approximately $14.3 million from tax-deferred condemnations that had not yet been reinvested.
OTHER MATTERS
Commitments, Contingencies and Off-balance Sheet Arrangements: A description of other commitments, contingencies, and off-balance sheet arrangements at September 30, 2020, and herein incorporated by reference, is included in Note 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements of Item 1 in this Form 10-Q.
Critical Accounting Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, upon which the Management's Discussion and Analysis is based, requires that management exercise judgment when making estimates and assumptions about future events that may affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty and actual results will, inevitably, differ from those critical accounting estimates. These differences could be material. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company's financial statements were described in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in the Company's 2019 Form 10-K.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As noted above, the COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted the global economy; has contributed to significant volatility in financial markets; and both its near-term and long-term economic impacts remain uncertain. With respect to material market risk exposures, as the Company is exposed to changes in interest rates, primarily as a result of its borrowing and investing activities used to maintain liquidity and to fund business operations, the Company will continue to actively monitor the situation and its impact on interest rates and may take further actions that it determines is in the best interest of its business, financial condition and liquidity and capital resources.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
With the exception of the following, there have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K.
Risks Relating to Our Business
The COVID-19 pandemic and measures intended to prevent its spread has had, and could continue to have, an adverse effect on our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
In December 2019, a new strain of coronavirus ("COVID-19") was first reported in Wuhan, China, and on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic. The pandemic has led governments around the world, including federal, state and local authorities in the United States, to implement measures intended to control its spread, including restrictions on freedom of movement and business operations such as travel bans, border closings, business closures, quarantines and shelter-in-place orders. The pandemic has caused a decline in Hawai‘i tourism, visitor arrivals and commercial activity, which, if prolonged, may have an adverse impact on Hawai‘i’s economy.
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and measures to prevent its spread has adversely affected, and could continue to adversely affect, our businesses, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition. Our leasing rental revenue and operating results depend significantly on the occupancy levels at our properties and the ability of our tenants to meet their rent and other obligations to us. Tenants that experience deteriorating financial conditions as a result of the pandemic may be unwilling or unable to pay rent in full on a timely basis or at all. Certain of our tenants may incur significant costs or losses responding to the pandemic, lose business due to any interruption in the operations of our properties, or incur other losses or liabilities related to shelter-in-place orders, quarantines, infection or other related factors. Federal, state, local and industry-initiated efforts may also limit our ability to collect rent or enforce remedies for the failure to pay rent. In addition, the deterioration of economic conditions as a result of the pandemic may decrease occupancy levels and rents across our portfolio as tenants reduce or defer their spending, which could adversely affect the value of our properties.
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused, and may continue to cause, severe economic, market and other disruptions worldwide. Conditions in the lending, capital and other financial markets may continue to deteriorate as a result of the pandemic, and our access to capital and other sources of funding may become constrained, which could adversely affect the availability and terms of future borrowings, renewals, or refinancings.
Failure to comply with certain restrictive financial covenants contained in our credit facilities could impose restrictions on our business segments, capital availability or the ability to pursue other activities.
Our credit facilities and term debt contain certain restrictive financial covenants. If we breach any of the covenants and such breach is not cured in a timely manner or waived by the lenders, and such event results in default, our access to credit may be limited or terminated and the lenders could declare any outstanding amounts immediately due and payable. We further may be limited in our ability to make distributions to our shareholders in event of default.
An economic downturn, which may be brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, could challenge our ability to maintain ongoing compliance with these financial covenants. While we, if in breach of such covenants, intend to apply for temporary waivers of such requirements, our failure to receive such waivers would have an adverse effect on our liquidity and capital resources.
The COVID-19 pandemic has led to remote working by our employees, which may result in certain increases in cyber and privacy risks, which could have an adverse effect on us.
We have transitioned a significant subset of our employees to a remote work environment in compliance with State and local orders pertaining to individuals and businesses and safe practices, which may exacerbate certain risks to our businesses, including an increased demand for information technology resources, increased risk of phishing and other cybersecurity attacks and increased risk of unauthorized dissemination of sensitive personal information or proprietary or confidential information.
49
Risks Relating to Our Commercial Real Estate Segment
The COVID-19 pandemic may have an adverse effect on our tenants' operations and financial condition and could adversely impact our profitability.
Considerable uncertainty surrounds the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on the population, as well as the effectiveness of any responses taken by government authorities. The pandemic has caused a decline in Hawai‘i tourism, visitor arrivals and commercial activity, which, if prolonged, may have an adverse impact on Hawai‘i’s economy and our tenants' operations and financial condition.
On March 21, 2020, the Hawai‘i governor issued a proclamation requiring all persons arriving or returning to the State of Hawai‘i to comply with a mandatory fourteen day (or the duration the individual's presence in the State, if shorter) self-quarantine. Following this order, the governor and mayors of the Hawai‘i counties have issued and continue to issue proclamations and orders in response to the pandemic restricting activities and mandating safe practices and procedures for individuals and businesses. Such proclamations and orders continue to evolve and such restrictions could be in place for an extended period.
These restrictions have adversely impacted, and could continue to adversely impact, our tenants, as governmental instructions regarding safe practices and travel to the State have reduced and, in some cases, eliminated customer foot traffic and has also caused certain of our tenants to close their brick-and-mortar stores and spaces.
The COVID-19 pandemic may have a continued adverse impact on economic and market conditions and may trigger a protracted period of economic slowdown globally and in Hawai‘i. The rapidly evolving nature of the COVID-19 pandemic makes it difficult to ascertain the long-term impact it will have on commercial real estate markets and our real estate investments.
Risks Relating to Our Materials & Construction Segment
The COVID-19 pandemic may have an adverse effect on infrastructure and other projects and could reduce our revenues and profits from our materials and construction businesses.
Considerable uncertainty surrounds the COVID-19 pandemic and its effect on the economy globally and in Hawai‘i. Any resulting slowdown or delays in, or work stoppages or workforce disruptions relating to, infrastructure and other projects could reduce the revenues and profits from our materials and construction businesses.
