Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Organization and Description of Business
City Office REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) was organized in the state of Maryland on November 26, 2013. On April 21, 2014, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) of shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company contributed the net proceeds of the IPO to City Office REIT Operating Partnership, L.P., a Maryland limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), in exchange for common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“common units”). Both the Company and the Operating Partnership commenced operations upon completion of the IPO and certain related formation transactions (the “Formation Transactions”).
The Company’s interest in the Operating Partnership entitles the Company to share in distributions from, and allocations of profits and losses of, the Operating Partnership in proportion to the Company’s percentage ownership of common units. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Company has the exclusive power under the Operating Partnership’s partnership agreement to manage and conduct the Operating Partnership’s business, subject to limited approval and voting rights of the limited partners.
The Company has elected to be taxed and will continue to operate in a manner that will allow it to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Subject to qualification as a REIT, the Company will be permitted to deduct dividend distributions paid to its stockholders, eliminating the U.S. federal taxation of income represented by such distributions at the Company level. REITs are subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal and state income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates and any applicable alternative minimum tax.
On February 1, 2016, the Company closed on the previously announced management internalization (“the Internalization”). The Company had previously entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (“Stock Purchase Agreement”) with certain stockholders of the Company’s external advisor, City Office Real Estate Management Inc. (the “Advisor”) pursuant to which the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of the Advisor. Pursuant to this Stock Purchase Agreement, at closing, the Company issued 297,321 shares of its common stock with a fair market value of $3.5 million to the stockholders of the Advisor (the “Sellers”), which included the Company’s three executive officers and Samuel Belzberg, a director of the Company. In addition, the Company was required to make cash payments to the Sellers of up to $3.5 million if the Company’s fully diluted market capitalization reached the following thresholds prior to December 31, 2016: $1 million upon the Company achieving a $200 million fully diluted market capitalization, an additional $1 million upon the Company achieving a $225 million fully diluted market capitalization and an additional $1.5 million upon the Company achieving a $250 million fully diluted market capitalization. The Company paid an additional $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2016 representing the payments to be made to the Sellers upon reaching these fully diluted market capitalizations, which, together with the initial payment and professional fees, resulted in a total cost of $7.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2016. The amount was recorded as an expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations as it represented the cost of terminating the relationship.
In connection with the closing of the Internalization, the Company entered into an amendment to the Advisory Agreement between the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Company’s former external Advisor (“Advisory Agreement”) that eliminates the payment of acquisition fees by the Company to the Advisor. In addition, each of the Company’s executive officers entered into an employment agreement with the Company and became employees of the Company, and, at the same time, approximately eleven additional former employees of the Advisor and its affiliates became employees of the Company.
In connection with the closing of the transactions under the Stock Purchase Agreement, a subsidiary of the Company entered into an Administrative Services Agreement (the “Administrative Services Agreement”) with Second City Capital II Corporation and Second City Real Estate II Corporation, related entities controlled by Mr. Belzberg. The Administrative Services Agreement has a three year term and pursuant to the agreement, the

Company will provide various administrative services and support to the related entities managing the Second City funds. The Company’s subsidiary will receive annual payments for these services under the Administrative Services Agreement as follows: first 12 months—$1.5 million, second 12 months—$1.15 million and third 12 months—$0.625 million, for a total of $3.275 million over the three-year term.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Preparation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations and generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and in the opinion of management contain all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-3, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. ASU 2015-3 requires an entity to present such costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Amortization of the costs will continue to be reported as interest expense. ASU 2015-3 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The new guidance must be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented. The Company adopted ASU 2015-3 on January 1, 2016 and retrospectively reclassified $3.4 million of debt issuance costs as of December 31, 2015 from deferred financing costs, net.
In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments. The update requires that acquiring entities in a business combination recognize adjustments to provisional amounts identified in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined, including the cumulative effect of the change in provisional amount, as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. Adjustments related to previous reporting periods must be disclosed by income statement line item, either on the face of the income statement or in the notes, in the period for which the adjustment was identified. ASU 2015-16 was adopted January 1, 2016. The impact, if any, of adopting ASU 2015-16 on the Company’s financial statements will depend on the nature of business combinations that occur.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. The update amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor accounting. The standard requires a modified retrospective transition approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, with an option to use certain transition relief. ASU 2016-02 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new leases standard on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 30, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (ASU 2016-09), to amend and simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including: (i) income tax consequences, (ii) classification of awards as equity or liabilities and (iii) classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years, and early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing the impact of the guidance on our consolidated financial statements and notes to our consolidated financial statements.

Sale of Real Estate Property
On June 15, 2016, the Company sold the Corporate Parkway property in Allentown, Pennsylvania, and its related assets and liabilities, for a sales price of $44.9 million, resulting in an aggregate net gain of $15.9 million, net of $2.0 million in costs, which has been classified as net gain on sale of real estate property in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. In connection with the sale of the property, certain debt repayments were made. In accordance with ASU 2014-08, the sale was not considered a discontinued operation. Proceeds from the sale were applied subsequently in a like-kind exchange so as to qualify for tax-deferred treatment under Section 1031 of the Code. Net proceeds after debt repayments and costs are presented in restricted cash on the Company’s balance sheet.

6. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value measurements are based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. The hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value is as follows:
Level 1 Inputs – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 Inputs – observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities
Level 3 Inputs – unobservable inputs
Earn-Out Liability
The fair value of the Central Fairwinds earn-out (note 9) was derived by making assumptions on the timing of the lease up of vacant space and the gross effective rents of those new leases and then applying an 8% discount rate to the resulting cash-flows to obtain a present value. The earn-out valuation assumes that approximately 1,500 square feet of additional leasing is completed between the date of the valuation and the end of the calculation period which would take the earn-out occupancy from 88% at June 30, 2016 to 89% by July 2016 and stabilized at that level thereafter. The net effective rent and incremental operating costs per square foot is assumed to be $14 and $3, respectively.
The estimated fair value of the earn-out liability decreased from $5.7 million at December 31, 2015 to $1.9 million at March 31, 2016 due to a $3.8 million payment in March 2016, satisfied through the issuance of common stock and common units. The fair value was unchanged at June 30, 2016.
Level 3 sensitivity analysis:
The Company applies judgment in determining unobservable inputs used to calculate the fair value of Level 3 instruments. Level 3 instruments held by the Company include the earn-out. The unobservable inputs used in the valuation of the earn-out primarily include the net effective rent assumptions. A sensitivity analysis has been performed to determine the potential gain or loss by varying the significant unobservable inputs by increasing or decreasing them by 10%. The impact of applying these other reasonably possible inputs is a potential loss of $0.1 million and a potential gain of $0.1 million. This potential gain or loss would be recorded through profit and loss.
Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities
The Company estimates that the fair value approximates carrying value due to the relatively short-term nature of these instruments.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments Not Carried at Fair Value
With the exception of fixed rate mortgage loans payable, the carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments approximate their fair value. The Company determines the fair value of its fixed rate mortgage loan payable based on a discounted cash flow analysis using a discount rate that approximates the current borrowing rates
12
Table of Contents
for instruments of similar maturities. Based on this, the Company has determined that the fair value of these instruments was $288.2 million and $285.9 million as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. Although the Company has determined the majority of the inputs used to value its fixed rate debt fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its fixed rate debt utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads. Accordingly, mortgage loans payable have been classified as Level 3 fair value measurements.
7. Related Party Transactions
Equity Transactions
On February 1, 2016, the Company closed on the previously announced Internalization. The Company had previously entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with certain stockholders of the Company’s Advisor pursuant to which the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of the Advisor (see Note 1).
Property Management Fees
Three of the Company’s properties (City Center, Central Fairwinds and AmberGlen) have engaged related parties to perform asset and property management services for a fee ranging from 3.0% to 3.5% of gross revenue. Management fees paid to the minority partners of these three properties totaled $0.3 million for each of the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Advisory Fee
During the six month period ended June 30, 2016, the Company incurred $0.1 million in advisory fees payable to the Advisor. Subsequent to the Internalization, such payments were no longer made.
Earn-Out Payments
During the year ended December 31, 2015, the 70% and 80% earn-out occupancy and net operating income thresholds were met at the Central Fairwinds property. This triggered a payment of approximately $3.2 million to Second City which was made on August 6, 2015 and a second payment of approximately $3.8 million which was made on March 3, 2016.
The estimated fair value of the earn-out liability decreased from $5.7 million at December 31, 2015 to $1.9 million at March 31, 2016 due to a $3.8 million payment in March 2016, satisfied through the issuance of common stock and common units. The fair value was unchanged at June 30, 2016.
8. Future Minimum Rent Schedule
Future minimum lease payments to be received as of June 30, 2016 under noncancellable operating leases for the next five years and thereafter are as follows (in thousands):
2016 | $ | 27,671 | ||
2017 | 53,718 | |||
2018 | 46,370 | |||
2019 | 40,035 | |||
2020 | 36,071 | |||
Thereafter | 118,793 | |||
|
| |||
$ | 322,658 | |||
|
|

Table of Contents
The above minimum lease payments to be received do not include reimbursements from tenants for certain operating expenses and real estate taxes and do not include early termination payments provided for in certain leases.
Fifteen state government tenants currently have the exercisable right to terminate their leases if the applicable state legislation does not appropriate rent in its annual budget. The Company has determined that the occurrence of any government tenant not being appropriated the rent in the applicable annual budget is a remote contingency and accordingly recognizes lease revenue on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. These tenants represent approximately 20.4% of the Company’s total future minimum lease payments as of June 30, 2016.
9. Commitments and Contingencies
Earn-Out
As part of the Formation Transactions and contribution agreement with respect to the Central Fairwinds property, the Company is obligated to make additional payments to Second City (each, an “Earn-Out Payment”) for up to a five year period commencing on the initial IPO date of April 21, 2014. Earn-Out Payments are contingent on the property reaching certain specified occupancy levels through new leases to qualified tenants and exceeding a net operating income threshold, which grows annually. Second City is entitled to receive an Earn-Out Payment (net of the associated leasing costs and inclusive of leasing commissions and tenant improvements/allowances and free rent) as and when the occupancy of Central Fairwinds reaches each of 70%, 80% and 90% (each, an “Earn-Out Threshold”) based on the incremental cash flow generated by new leases and a 7.75% stabilized capitalization rate. The Company will make any additional Earn-Out Payment within 30 days of the end of the earn-out term based on new qualified leases entered into since the achievement of the last Earn-Out Threshold. Earn-Out Payments will be subject to a claw-back if a qualified tenant defaults in the payment of rent and is not replaced with another qualified tenant (see note 6).
Other
The Company is obligated under certain tenant leases to fund tenant improvements and the expansion of the underlying leased properties.
Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations relating to the protection of the environment, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the cost of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances disposed, stored, generated, released, manufactured or discharged from, on, at, under, or in a property. As such, the Company may be potentially liable for costs associated with any potential environmental remediation at any of its formerly or currently owned properties.
The Company believes that it is in compliance in all material respects with all federal, state and local ordinances and regulations regarding hazardous or toxic substances. Management is not aware of any environmental liability that it believes would have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Management is unaware of any instances in which the Company would incur significant environmental costs if any or all properties were sold, disposed of or abandoned. However, there can be no assurance that any such non-compliance, liability, claim or expenditure will not arise in the future.
The Company is involved from time to time in lawsuits and other disputes which arise in the ordinary course of business. As of June 30, 2016 management believes that these matters will not have a material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

10. Stockholders’ Equity
On February 1, 2016, the Company closed on the Internalization. Upon closing of the Internalization, the Company and Buyer Sub acquired all of the outstanding stock of the Advisor. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, at closing, the Company issued 297,321 shares of its common stock to the Sellers. In addition, the Company recorded $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2016 in payments to the Sellers upon reaching certain fully diluted market capitalization thresholds.
On April 5, 2016, the Company completed a public offering pursuant to which the Company sold 8,050,000 shares of its common stock to the public at a price of $11.40 per share, inclusive of the overallotment option. The Company raised $91.8 million in gross proceeds, resulting in net proceeds to us of approximately $86.7 million after deducting $5.1 million in underwriting discounts and other expenses related to the offering.
Non-controlling Interests
Non-controlling interests in the Company represent common units not held by the Company. Non-controlling interests consisted of 3,201,085 common units and represented an approximately 13.1% interest in the Operating Partnership as of June 30, 2016. Common units and shares of common stock have essentially the same economic characteristics, as they share equally in the total net income or loss distributions of the Operating Partnership. Beginning on or after the date which is 12 months after the date on which a person first became a holder of common units, each limited partner and assignees of limited partners will have the right, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the partnership agreement, to require the Operating Partnership to redeem all or a portion of the common units held by such limited partner or assignee in exchange for a cash amount per common unit equal to the value of one share of common stock, determined in accordance with and subject to adjustment under the partnership agreement. The Company has the sole option at its discretion to redeem the tendered common units by issuing common stock on a one-for-one basis. The Operating Partnership unitholders are entitled to share in cash distributions from the Operating Partnership in proportion to its percentage ownership of common units.
During the six months ended June 30, 2016, 45,000 common units were converted to common stock.
Common Stock and Common Unit Distributions
On June 20, 2016, the Company’s board of directors approved and the Company declared a cash dividend distribution of $0.235 per share for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2016. The dividend was paid on July 21, 2016 to stockholders and common unitholders of record as of July 5, 2016 for an aggregate of $5.0 million in dividends to stockholders and $0.7 million to common unitholders, totaling $5.7 million.
Restricted Stock Units
The Company has an equity incentive plan (“Equity Incentive Plan”) for certain officers, directors, advisors and personnel, and, with approval of the board of directors, for subsidiaries and their respective affiliates. The Equity Incentive Plan provides for grants of restricted common stock, restricted stock units, phantom shares, stock options, dividend equivalent rights and other equity-based awards (including LTIP Units), subject to the total number of shares available for issuance under the plan. The Equity Incentive Plan is administered by the compensation committee of the board of directors (the “plan administrator”).
The maximum number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the Equity Incentive Plan is 1,263,580 shares. To the extent an award granted under the Equity Incentive Plan expires or terminates, the shares subject to any portion of the award that expires or terminates without having been exercised or paid, as the case may be, will again become available for the issuance of additional awards.
During the six months ended June 30, 2016, 78,250 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) were granted to directors and non-executive employees with a fair value of $1.0 million. The awards will vest in three equal, annual installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of grant. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recognized net compensation expense of $1.2 million related to the RSUs.
15
Table of Contents
A RSU award represents the right to receive shares of the Company’s common stock in the future, after the applicable vesting criteria, determined by the plan administrator, has been satisfied. The holder of an award of RSU has no rights as a stockholder until shares of common stock are issued in settlement of vested RSUs. The plan administrator may provide for a grant of dividend equivalent rights in connection with the grant of RSU; provided, however, that if the RSUs do not vest solely upon satisfaction of continued employment or service, any payment in respect to the related dividend equivalent rights will be held by the Company and paid when, and only to the extent that, the related RSU vest.
11. Subsequent Events
On July 12, 2016, the Company, through the Operating Partnership, completed the acquisition of properties located in Orlando, Florida, known as FRP Collection, for $49.8 million.
On July 14, 2016, the Company issued a total of 3,126,084 shares of its common stock to certain of the limited partners (“Second City”) of the Operating Partnership. The shares of common stock were issued in connection with Second City’s redemption of a total of 3,126,084 common units pursuant to the terms of the Operating Partnership’s limited partnership agreement, as amended and restated.

Overview
Company
We were formed as a Maryland corporation on November 26, 2013. On April 21, 2014, we completed our initial public offering (“IPO”) of shares of common stock. We contributed the net proceeds of the IPO to our Operating Partnership in exchange for common units in our Operating Partnership. Both we and our Operating Partnership commenced operations upon completion of the IPO and certain related formation transactions (the “Formation Transactions”).
The Company’s interest in the Operating Partnership entitles the Company to share in distributions from, and allocations of profits and losses of, the Operating Partnership in proportion to the Company’s percentage ownership of common units. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Company has the exclusive power under the Operating Partnership’s partnership agreement to manage and conduct the Operating Partnership’s business, subject to limited approval and voting rights of the limited partners.
The Company has elected to be taxed and will continue to operate in a manner that will allow it to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under the Code. Subject to qualification as a REIT, the Company will be permitted to deduct dividend distributions paid to its stockholders, eliminating the U.S. federal taxation of income represented by such distributions at the Company level. REITs are subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal and state income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates and any applicable alternative minimum tax.
On February 1, 2016, the Company closed on the previously announced Internalization. The Company had previously entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with certain stockholders of the Company’s external advisor, City Office Real Estate Management Inc. pursuant to which the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of the Advisor. Pursuant to this Stock Purchase Agreement, at closing, the Company issued 297,321 shares of its common stock with a fair market value of $3.5 million to the Sellers, which include the Company’s three executive officers and Samuel Belzberg, a director of the Company. In addition, the Company was required to make cash payments to the Sellers of up to $3.5 million if the Company’s fully diluted market capitalization reached the following thresholds prior to December 31, 2016: $1 million upon the Company achieving a $200 million fully diluted market capitalization, an additional $1 million upon the Company achieving a $225 million fully diluted market capitalization and an additional $1.5 million upon the Company achieving a $250 million fully diluted market capitalization. The Company paid an additional $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2016 representing the payments made to the Sellers upon reaching these fully diluted market capitalizations, which, together with the initial payment and professional fees, resulted in a total cost of $7.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2016. The amount was recorded as an expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations as it represented the cost of terminating the relationship.

In connection with the closing of the Internalization, the Company entered into an amendment to the Advisory Agreement that eliminates the payment of acquisition fees by the Company to the Company’s former external Advisor. In addition, each of the Company’s executive officers entered into an employment agreement with the Company and became employees of the Company, and, at the same time, approximately eleven additional former employees of the Advisor and its affiliates became employees of the Company.
In connection with the closing of the transactions under the Stock Purchase Agreement, a subsidiary of the Company entered into an Administrative Services Agreement with Second City Capital II Corporation and Second City Real Estate II Corporation, related entities controlled by Mr. Belzberg. The Administrative Services Agreement has a three year term and pursuant to the agreement, the Company will provide various administrative services and support to the related entities managing the Second City funds. The Company’s subsidiary will receive annual payments for these services under the Administrative Services Agreement as follows: first 12 months—$1.5 million, second 12 months—$1.15 million and third 12 months—$0.625 million, for a total of $3.275 million over the three-year term.
On April 5, 2016, the Company completed a public offering pursuant to which we sold 8,050,000 shares of our common stock to the public at a price of $11.40 per share, inclusive of the overallotment option. We raised $91.8 million in gross proceeds, resulting in net proceeds to us of approximately $86.7 million after deducting $5.1 million in underwriting discounts and other expenses related to the offering.
On June 15, 2016, the Company sold the Corporate Parkway property in Allentown, Pennsylvania for a sales price of $44.9 million, resulting in an aggregate net gain of $15.9 million, net of $2.0 million in costs, which has been classified as net gain on sale of real estate property in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. In connection with the sale of the property, certain debt repayments were made. In accordance with ASU 2014-08, the sale was not considered a discontinued operation. Proceeds from the sale were applied subsequently in a like-kind exchange so as to qualify for tax-deferred treatment under Section 1031 of the Code. Net proceeds after debt repayments and costs are presented in restricted cash on the Company’s balance sheet.

Revenue Base
As of June 30, 2016, we owned 14 properties comprised of 28 office buildings with a total of approximately 3.2 million square feet of net rentable area (“NRA”). As of June 30, 2016, our properties were approximately 88.3% leased.
Office Leases
Historically, most leases for our properties were on a full-service gross or net lease basis, and we expect to continue to use such leases in the future. A full-service gross lease generally has a base year expense “stop”, whereby we pay a stated amount of expenses as part of the rent payment while future increases (above the base year stop) in property operating expenses are billed to the tenant based on such tenant’s proportionate square footage in the property. The property operating expenses are reflected in operating expenses; however, only the increased property operating expenses above the base year stop recovered from tenants are reflected as tenant recoveries in our statements of operations. In a triple net lease, the tenant is typically responsible for all property taxes and operating expenses. As such, the base rent payment does not include any operating expenses, but rather all such expenses are billed to or paid by the tenant. The full amount of the expenses for this lease type is reflected in operating expenses, and the reimbursement is reflected in tenant recoveries. The tenants in the Lake Vista Pointe, FRP Ingenuity Drive and Superior Pointe properties have triple net leases. We are also a lessor for a fee simple ground lease at the AmberGlen property. All of our remaining leases are full-service gross leases.

Factors That May Influence Our Operating Results and Financial Condition
Business and Strategy
We focus on owning and acquiring office properties in our target markets. Our target markets generally possess what we believe are favorable economic growth trends, growing populations with above-average employment growth forecasts, a large number of government offices, large international, national and regional employers across diversified industries, are generally low-cost centers for business operations, and exhibit favorable occupancy trends. We utilize our management’s market-specific knowledge and relationships as well as the expertise of local real estate operators and our investment partners to identify acquisition opportunities that we believe will offer cash flow stability and long-term value appreciation. Our target markets are attractive, among other reasons, because we believe that ownership is often concentrated among local real estate operators that typically do not benefit from the same access to capital as public REITs and there is a relatively low level of participation of large institutional investors. We believe that these factors result in attractive pricing levels and risk-adjusted returns.
Rental Revenue and Tenant Recoveries
The amount of net rental revenue generated by our properties will depend principally on our ability to maintain the occupancy rates of currently leased space and to lease currently available space and space that becomes available from lease terminations. As of June 30, 2016, our properties were approximately 88.3% leased. The amount of rental revenue generated also depends on our ability to maintain or increase rental rates at our properties. We believe that the average rental rates for our portfolio of properties are generally in-line or slightly below the current average quoted market rates. Negative trends in one or more of these factors could adversely affect our rental revenue in future periods. Future economic downturns or regional downturns affecting our markets or submarkets or downturns in our tenants’ industries that impair our ability to renew or re-let space and the ability of our tenants to fulfill their lease commitments, as in the case of tenant bankruptcies, could adversely affect our ability to maintain or increase rental rates at our properties. In addition, growth in rental revenue will also partially depend on our ability to acquire additional properties that meet our investment criteria.
Our Properties
As of June 30, 2016, we own fourteen office complexes comprised of 28 office buildings with a total of approximately 3.2 million square feet of NRA in the metropolitan areas of Boise (ID), Denver (CO), Portland (OR), Tampa (FL), Dallas (TX) and Orlando (FL). The following table presents an overview of our portfolio as of June 30, 2016 (properties listed by descending NRA by market).

Operating Expenses
Our operating expenses generally consist of utilities, property and ad valorem taxes, insurance and site maintenance costs. Increases in these expenses over tenants’ base years (until the base year is reset at expiration) are generally passed along to tenants in our full-service gross leased properties and are generally paid in full by tenants in our net leased properties.
Conditions in Our Markets
Positive or negative changes in economic or other conditions in the markets we operate in, including state budgetary shortfalls, employment rates, natural hazards and other factors, may impact our overall performance.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Analysis of Liquidity and Capital Resources
We had approximately $7.7 million of cash and cash equivalents and $53.0 million of restricted cash as of June 30, 2016. In addition, we had drawn $17 million from the Secured Credit Facility.
On April 5, 2016, we completed a public offering pursuant to which we sold 8,050,000 shares of our common stock to the public at a price of $11.40 per share, inclusive of the overallotment option. We raised $91.8 million in gross proceeds, resulting in net proceeds to us of approximately $86.7 million after deducting $5.1 million in underwriting discounts and other expenses relating to the offering.
On June 15, 2016, the Company sold the Corporate Parkway property in Allentown, Pensylvania for a sales price of $44.9 million, resulting in an aggregate net gain of $15.9 million, net of $2.0 million in costs, which has been classified as net gain on sale of real estate property in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. In connection with the sale of the property, certain debt repayments were made. In accordance with ASU 2014-08, the sale was not considered a discontinued operation. Proceeds from the sale were applied subsequently in a like-kind exchange so as to qualify for tax-deferred treatment under Section 1031 of the Code. Net proceeds after debt repayments and costs are presented in restricted cash on the Company’s balance sheet.
Our short-term liquidity requirements primarily consist of operating expenses and other expenditures associated with our properties, distributions to our limited partners and distributions to our stockholders required to qualify for REIT status, capital expenditures and, potentially, acquisitions. We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements through net cash provided by operations, reserves established from existing cash and borrowings under our Secured Credit Facility.
Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary for the repayment of debt at maturity, property acquisitions and non-recurring capital improvements. We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements with net cash from operations, long-term secured and unsecured indebtedness and the issuance of equity and debt securities. We also may fund property acquisitions and non-recurring capital improvements using our Secured Credit Facility pending longer term financing.
We believe we have access to multiple sources of capital to fund our long-term liquidity requirements, including the incurrence of additional debt and the issuance of additional equity securities. However, we cannot assure you that this is or will continue to be the case. Our ability to incur additional debt is dependent on a number of factors, including our degree of leverage, the value of our unencumbered assets and borrowing restrictions that may be imposed by lenders. Our ability to access the equity capital markets is dependent on a number of factors as well, including general market conditions for REITs and market perceptions about us.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2016, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Inflation
Substantially all of our office leases provide for real estate tax and operating expense escalations. In addition, most of the leases provide for fixed annual rent increases. We believe that inflationary increases may be at least partially offset by these contractual rent increases and expense escalations.
Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk |
Our future income, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments are dependent upon prevailing market interest rates. Market risk refers to the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. We have used, and will use, derivative financial instruments to manage or hedge interest rate risks related to borrowings. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and only enter into contracts with major

financial institutions based upon their credit rating and other factors. We have entered, and we will only enter into, contracts with major financial institutions based on their credit rating and other factors. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, our Company did not have any outstanding derivatives.
As of June 30, 2016, approximately $276.0 million, or 94.2%, of our debt had fixed interest rates and approximately $17.0 million, or 5.8%, had variable interest rates. The variable rate indebtedness relates to borrowings under the Secured Credit Facility.
The variable rate component of our consolidated indebtedness is LIBOR-based. Assuming no increase in the amount of our variable rate debt as of June 30, 2016, if LIBOR were to increase by 100 basis points, the increase in interest expense on our variable rate debt would decrease our future earnings and cash flows by approximately $0.2 million annually. If LIBOR were to decrease by 100 basis points, interest expense on our variable rate debt would decrease by approximately $0.2 million annually.
The primary market risk to which we are exposed is interest rate risk. Our primary interest rate exposure is LIBOR. We primarily use fixed interest rate financing to manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates.
Interest risk amounts are our management’s estimates based on our Company’s capital structure and were determined by considering the effect of hypothetical interest rates on our financial instruments. These analyses do not consider the effect of any change in overall economic activity that could occur in that environment nor the change to the capital structure as a result of the Internalization. We may take actions to further mitigate our exposure to changes in interest rates. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, these analyses assume no changes in our Company’s financial structure.
