1. Organization and description of business | |
PS Business Parks, Inc. (“PSB”) was incorporated in the state of California in 1990. As of September 30, 2014, PSB owned 77.8% of the common partnership units of PS Business Parks, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”). The remaining common partnership units are owned by Public Storage (“PS”). PSB, as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, has full, exclusive and complete responsibility and discretion in managing and controlling the Operating Partnership. PSB and its subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership are collectively referred to as the “Company.” Assuming issuance of the Company’s common stock upon redemption of its partnership units, PS would own 42.3% of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. | |
The Company is a fully-integrated, self-advised and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that owns, operates, acquires and develops commercial properties, primarily multi-tenant flex, office and industrial space. As of September 30, 2014, the Company owned and operated 29.7 million rentable square feet of commercial space located in eight states. The Company completed the sale of two business parks located in Beaverton, Oregon, on October 1, 2014. Excluding these two business parks, the Company owned and operated 28.8 million rentable square feet of commercial space located in eight states. The Company also manages 1.2 million rentable square feet on behalf of PS. | |
References to the number of properties or square footage are unaudited and outside the scope of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm's review of the Company’s financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). | |

2. Summary of significant accounting policies | ||||||||||||
Basis of presentation | ||||||||||||
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2014. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. | ||||||||||||
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PSB and the Operating Partnership. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. | ||||||||||||
Noncontrolling interests | ||||||||||||
The Company's noncontrolling interests are reported as a component of equity separate from the parent’s equity. Purchases or sales of equity interests that do not result in a change in control are accounted for as equity transactions. In addition, net income attributable to the noncontrolling interests is included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement and, upon a gain or loss of control, the interests purchased or sold, as well as any interests retained, are recorded at fair value with any gain or loss recognized in earnings. At the end of each reporting period, the Company determines the amount of equity (book value of net assets) which is allocable to the noncontrolling interests based upon the ownership interest, and an adjustment is made to the noncontrolling interests, with a corresponding adjustment to paid-in capital, to reflect the noncontrolling interests’ equity interest in the Company. | ||||||||||||
Use of estimates | ||||||||||||
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. | ||||||||||||
Allowance for doubtful accounts | ||||||||||||
The Company monitors the collectability of its receivable balances including the deferred rent receivable on an ongoing basis. Based on these reviews, the Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the possible inability of tenants to make contractual rent payments to the Company. A provision for doubtful accounts is recorded during each period. The allowance for doubtful accounts, which represents the cumulative allowances less write-offs of uncollectible rent, is netted against tenant and other receivables on the consolidated balance sheets. Tenant receivables are net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts totaling $400,000 at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Deferred rent receivable is net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts totaling $845,000 and $940,000 at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. | ||||||||||||
Financial instruments | ||||||||||||
The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments are described below. The Company has estimated the fair value of financial instruments using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop estimates of market value. Accordingly, estimated fair values are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized in current market exchanges. The Company determines the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities utilizing a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to a fair value measurement are considered to be observable or unobservable in a marketplace. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions. This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. The following is the fair value hierarchy: | ||||||||||||
· | Level 1—quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; | |||||||||||
· | Level 2—quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and | |||||||||||
· | Level 3—fair value measurements derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. | |||||||||||
Financial assets that are exposed to credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and receivables. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents, which consist primarily of money market investments, are only invested in entities with an investment grade rating. Receivables are comprised of balances due from a large number of customers. Balances that the Company expects to become uncollectible are reserved for or written off. Due to the short period to maturity of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other assets and accrued and other liabilities, the carrying values as presented on the consolidated balance sheets are reasonable estimates of fair value. | ||||||||||||
Carrying values of the Company’s mortgage notes payable, unsecured credit facility and term loan approximate fair value. The characteristics of these financial instruments, market data and other comparative metrics utilized in determining these fair values are “Level 2” inputs. | ||||||||||||
Real estate facilities | ||||||||||||
Real estate facilities are recorded at cost. Costs related to the renovation or improvement of the properties are capitalized. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Expenditures that are expected to benefit a period greater than two years and exceed $2,000 are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful life. Buildings and improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which generally range from five to 30 years. Transaction costs, which include tenant improvements and lease commissions, in excess of $1,000 for leases with terms greater than one year are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Transaction costs less than $1,000 or for leases of one year or less are expensed as incurred. | ||||||||||||
Land and building held for development | ||||||||||||
Property taxes, insurance, interest and costs essential to the development of property for its intended use are capitalized during the period of development. Upon classification of an asset as held for development, depreciation of the asset is ceased. | ||||||||||||
Properties held for disposition | ||||||||||||
An asset is classified as an asset held for disposition when it meets certain requirements, which include, among other criteria, the approval of the sale of the asset, the marketing of the asset for sale and the expectation by the Company that the sale will likely occur within the next 12 months. Upon classification of an asset as held for disposition, depreciation of the asset is ceased, and the net book value of the asset is included on the balance sheet as properties held for disposition. | ||||||||||||
Intangible assets/liabilities | ||||||||||||
Intangible assets and liabilities include above-market and below-market in-place lease values of acquired properties based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. The capitalized above-market and below-market lease values (included in other assets and accrued liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets) are amortized to rental income over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases. | ||||||||||||
The Company recorded net increases in rental income of $231,000 and $672,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, due to the amortization of net intangible liabilities resulting from the above-market and below-market lease values. The Company recorded net reductions to rental income of $27,000 and $148,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, due to the amortization of net intangible assets resulting from the above-market and below-market lease values. | ||||||||||||
As of September 30, 2014, the value of in-place leases resulted in net intangible assets of $2.7 million, net of $7.5 million of accumulated amortization with a weighted average amortization period of 7.7 years, and net intangible liabilities of $3.7 million, net of $6.4 million of accumulated amortization with a weighted average amortization period of 4.7 years. As of December 31, 2013, the value of in-place leases resulted in net intangible assets of $3.7 million, net of $6.6 million of accumulated amortization and net intangible liabilities of $5.4 million, net of $4.8 million of accumulated amortization. | ||||||||||||
Evaluation of asset impairment | ||||||||||||
The Company evaluates its assets used in operations for impairment by identifying indicators of impairment and by comparing the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows for each asset to the asset’s carrying value. When indicators of impairment are present and the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying value of such asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s current carrying value and its value based on discounting its estimated future cash flows. In addition, the Company evaluates its assets held for disposition for impairment. Assets held for disposition are reported at the lower of their carrying value or fair value, less cost of disposition. At September 30, 2014, the Company did not consider any assets to be impaired. | ||||||||||||
Stock compensation | ||||||||||||
All share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as stock compensation in the Company’s income statement based on their grant date fair values. See Note 11. | ||||||||||||
Revenue and expense recognition | ||||||||||||
The Company must meet four basic criteria before revenue can be recognized: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; the delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; the fee is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured. All leases are classified as operating leases. Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases. Straight-line rent is recognized for all tenants with contractual fixed increases in rent that are not included on the Company’s credit watch list. Deferred rent receivable represents rental revenue recognized on a straight-line basis in excess of billed rents. Reimbursements from tenants for real estate taxes and other recoverable operating expenses are recognized as rental income in the period the applicable costs are incurred. Property management fees are recognized in the period earned. | ||||||||||||
Costs incurred in connection with leasing (primarily tenant improvements and lease commissions) are capitalized and amortized over the lease period. | ||||||||||||
Gains from sales of real estate facilities | ||||||||||||
The Company recognizes gains from sales of real estate facilities at the time of sale using the full accrual method, provided that various criteria related to the terms of the transactions and any subsequent involvement by the Company with the properties sold are met. If the criteria are not met, the Company defers the gains and recognizes them when the criteria are met or uses the installment or cost recovery methods as appropriate under the circumstances. | ||||||||||||
General and administrative expenses | ||||||||||||
General and administrative expenses include executive and other compensation, office expenses, professional fees, acquisition transaction costs, state income taxes and other such administrative items. | ||||||||||||
Income taxes | ||||||||||||
The Company has qualified and intends to continue to qualify as a REIT, as defined in Section 856 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As a REIT, the Company is not subject to federal income tax to the extent that it distributes its REIT taxable income to its shareholders. A REIT must distribute at least 90% of its taxable income each year. In addition, REITs are subject to a number of organizational and operating requirements. The Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property and to federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed taxable income. The Company believes it met all organization and operating requirements to maintain its REIT status during 2013 and intends to continue to meet such requirements for 2014. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. | ||||||||||||
The Company can recognize a tax benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that a particular tax position will be sustained upon examination or audit. To the extent that the “more likely than not” standard has been satisfied, the benefit associated with a position is measured as the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being recognized upon settlement. As of September 30, 2014, the Company did not recognize any tax benefit for uncertain tax positions. | ||||||||||||
Accounting for preferred equity issuance costs | ||||||||||||
The Company records issuance costs as a reduction to paid-in capital on its balance sheet at the time the preferred securities are issued and reflects the carrying value of the preferred equity at the stated value. Such issuance costs are recorded as non-cash preferred equity distributions at the time the Company notifies the holders of preferred stock or units of its intent to redeem such shares or units. | ||||||||||||
Net income per common share | ||||||||||||
Per share amounts are computed using the number of weighted average common shares outstanding. “Diluted” weighted average common shares outstanding includes the dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock units under the treasury stock method. “Basic” weighted average common shares outstanding excludes such effect. The Company's restricted stock units are participating securities and are included in the computation of basic and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. The Company’s restricted stock unit holders are paid non-forfeitable dividends in excess of the expense recorded which results in a reduction in net income allocable to common shareholders and unit holders. Earnings per share has been calculated as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts): | ||||||||||||

Recently issued accounting standards | ||||||||||||
In April, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued amendments to guidance for reporting discontinued operations and disposals of components of an entity. The amended guidance requires that a disposal representing a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s financial results or a business activity classified as held for sale should be reported as discontinued operations. The amendments also expand the disclosure requirements for discontinued operations and add new disclosures for individually significant dispositions that do not qualify as discontinued operations. The amendments are effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014 (early adoption is permitted only for disposals that have not been previously reported). During the first quarter of 2014, the Company early adopted the amended guidance, which did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial position or results of operations. | ||||||||||||
In May, 2014, the FASB issued new accounting guidance which amended the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition. The new accounting guidance establishes principles for recognizing revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the expected consideration received in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning October 1, 2017. Early adoption is not permitted. The amendments may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial application. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the new accounting guidance on its consolidated financial statements. | ||||||||||||

The purchase price of acquired properties is recorded to land, buildings and improvements and intangible assets and liabilities associated with in-place leases (including tenant improvements, unamortized lease commissions, value of above-market and below-market leases, acquired in-place lease values, and tenant relationships, if any) based on their respective estimated fair values. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. | ||||||||||||
In determining the fair value of the tangible assets of the acquired properties, management considers the value of the properties as if vacant as of the acquisition date. Management must make significant assumptions in determining the value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Using different assumptions in the recording of the purchase cost of the acquired properties would affect the timing of recognition of the related revenue and expenses. Amounts recorded to land are derived from comparable sales of land within the same region. Amounts recorded to buildings and improvements, tenant improvements and unamortized lease commissions are based on current market replacement costs and other market information. The amount recorded to acquired in-place leases is determined based on management’s assessment of current market conditions and the estimated lease-up periods for the respective spaces. | ||||||||||||
On July 24, 2014, the Company acquired a 149,000 square foot building in Miami, Florida, for $12.7 million.

7. Noncontrolling interests | |
As described in Note 2, the Company reports noncontrolling interests within equity in the consolidated financial statements, but separate from the Company’s shareholders’ equity. In addition, net income allocable to noncontrolling interests is shown as a reduction from net income in calculating net income allocable to common shareholders. | |
Common partnership units | |
The Company presents the accounts of PSB and the Operating Partnership on a consolidated basis. Ownership interests in the Operating Partnership that can be redeemed for common stock, other than PSB’s interest, are classified as noncontrolling interests — common units in the consolidated financial statements. Net income allocable to noncontrolling interests — common units consists of the common units’ share of the consolidated operating results after allocation to preferred units and shares. Beginning one year from the date of admission as a limited partner (common units) and subject to certain limitations described below, each limited partner other than PSB has the right to require the redemption of its partnership interest. | |
A limited partner (common units) that exercises its redemption right will receive cash from the Operating Partnership in an amount equal to the market value (as defined in the Operating Partnership Agreement) of the partnership interests redeemed. In lieu of the Operating Partnership redeeming the common units for cash, PSB, as general partner, has the right to elect to acquire the partnership interest directly from a limited partner exercising its redemption right, in exchange for cash in the amount specified above or by issuance of one share of PSB common stock for each unit of limited partnership interest redeemed. | |
A limited partner (common units) cannot exercise its redemption right if delivery of shares of PSB common stock would be prohibited under the applicable articles of incorporation, or if the general partner believes that there is a risk that delivery of shares of common stock would cause the general partner to no longer qualify as a REIT, would cause a violation of the applicable securities laws, or would result in the Operating Partnership no longer being treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. | |
At September 30, 2014, there were 7,305,355 common units owned by PS, which are accounted for as noncontrolling interests. Combined with PS’s existing common stock ownership, on a fully converted basis, PS has a combined ownership of 42.3% of the Company’s common equity. | |
Preferred partnership units | |
The Company had no preferred units outstanding through the Operating Partnership as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. | |

Effective March, 2014, the Company entered into a performance-based restricted stock unit program, the Senior Management Long-Term Equity Incentive Program for 2014-2017 (“LTEIP”), with selected employees of the Company. Under the LTEIP, the Company established three levels of targeted restricted stock unit awards for selected employees, which would be earned only if the Company achieved one of three defined targets during 2014 to 2017. The first type of award is an annual award following the end of each of the four years in the program, with the award subject to and based on the achievement of one of three defined targets during the previous year. The second type of award is an award based on achieving one of three defined targets during the cumulative four-year period 2014-2017. In the event the minimum defined target is not achieved for an annual award, the shares allocated to be awarded for such year are added to the shares that may be received if the four-year target is achieved. Both types of restricted stock unit awards vest in four equal annual installments beginning from the date of award. Up to approximately 84,514 restricted stock units would be granted for each of the four years assuming achievement was met and up to approximately 84,514 restricted stock units would be granted for the cumulative four-year period assuming achievement was met. Compensation expense is recognized based on the shares expected to be awarded based on the target level that is expected to be achieved. Net compensation expense of $1.9 million and $5.1 million related to the LTEIP was recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. | ||||||||||
Effective January 1, 2012, the Company entered into a performance-based restricted stock unit program, the Senior Management Long-Term Equity Incentive Program for 2012-2015 (“2012 LTEIP”), with selected employees of the Company.

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract] | ' | |||||||||||
Basis Of Presentation | ' | |||||||||||
Basis of presentation | ||||||||||||
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2014. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. | ||||||||||||
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PSB and the Operating Partnership. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. | ||||||||||||
Noncontrolling Interests | ' | |||||||||||
Noncontrolling interests | ||||||||||||
The Company's noncontrolling interests are reported as a component of equity separate from the parent’s equity. Purchases or sales of equity interests that do not result in a change in control are accounted for as equity transactions. In addition, net income attributable to the noncontrolling interests is included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement and, upon a gain or loss of control, the interests purchased or sold, as well as any interests retained, are recorded at fair value with any gain or loss recognized in earnings. At the end of each reporting period, the Company determines the amount of equity (book value of net assets) which is allocable to the noncontrolling interests based upon the ownership interest, and an adjustment is made to the noncontrolling interests, with a corresponding adjustment to paid-in capital, to reflect the noncontrolling interests’ equity interest in the Company. | ||||||||||||
Use Of Estimates | ' | |||||||||||
Use of estimates | ||||||||||||
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. | ||||||||||||
Allowance For Doubtful Accounts | ' | |||||||||||
Allowance for doubtful accounts | ||||||||||||
The Company monitors the collectability of its receivable balances including the deferred rent receivable on an ongoing basis. Based on these reviews, the Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the possible inability of tenants to make contractual rent payments to the Company. A provision for doubtful accounts is recorded during each period. The allowance for doubtful accounts, which represents the cumulative allowances less write-offs of uncollectible rent, is netted against tenant and other receivables on the consolidated balance sheets. Tenant receivables are net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts totaling $400,000 at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Deferred rent receivable is net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts totaling $845,000 and $940,000 at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. | ||||||||||||
Financial Instruments | ' | |||||||||||
Financial instruments | ||||||||||||
The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments are described below. The Company has estimated the fair value of financial instruments using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop estimates of market value. Accordingly, estimated fair values are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized in current market exchanges. The Company determines the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities utilizing a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to a fair value measurement are considered to be observable or unobservable in a marketplace. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions. This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. The following is the fair value hierarchy: | ||||||||||||
· | Level 1—quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; | |||||||||||
· | Level 2—quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and | |||||||||||
· | Level 3—fair value measurements derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. | |||||||||||
Financial assets that are exposed to credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and receivables. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents, which consist primarily of money market investments, are only invested in entities with an investment grade rating. Receivables are comprised of balances due from a large number of customers. Balances that the Company expects to become uncollectible are reserved for or written off. Due to the short period to maturity of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other assets and accrued and other liabilities, the carrying values as presented on the consolidated balance sheets are reasonable estimates of fair value. | ||||||||||||
Carrying values of the Company’s mortgage notes payable, unsecured credit facility and term loan approximate fair value. The characteristics of these financial instruments, market data and other comparative metrics utilized in determining these fair values are “Level 2” inputs. | ||||||||||||
Real Estate Facilities | ' | |||||||||||
Real estate facilities | ||||||||||||
Real estate facilities are recorded at cost. Costs related to the renovation or improvement of the properties are capitalized. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Expenditures that are expected to benefit a period greater than two years and exceed $2,000 are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful life. Buildings and improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which generally range from five to 30 years. Transaction costs, which include tenant improvements and lease commissions, in excess of $1,000 for leases with terms greater than one year are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Transaction costs less than $1,000 or for leases of one year or less are expensed as incurred. | ||||||||||||
Land And Building Held For Development | ' | |||||||||||
Land and building held for development | ||||||||||||
Property taxes, insurance, interest and costs essential to the development of property for its intended use are capitalized during the period of development. Upon classification of an asset as held for development, depreciation of the asset is ceased. | ||||||||||||
Properties Held For Disposition | ' | |||||||||||
Properties held for disposition | ||||||||||||
An asset is classified as an asset held for disposition when it meets certain requirements, which include, among other criteria, the approval of the sale of the asset, the marketing of the asset for sale and the expectation by the Company that the sale will likely occur within the next 12 months. Upon classification of an asset as held for disposition, depreciation of the asset is ceased, and the net book value of the asset is included on the balance sheet as properties held for disposition. | ||||||||||||
Intangible Assets/Liabilities | ' | |||||||||||
Intangible assets/liabilities | ||||||||||||
Intangible assets and liabilities include above-market and below-market in-place lease values of acquired properties based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. The capitalized above-market and below-market lease values (included in other assets and accrued liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets) are amortized to rental income over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases. | ||||||||||||
The Company recorded net increases in rental income of $231,000 and $672,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, due to the amortization of net intangible liabilities resulting from the above-market and below-market lease values. The Company recorded net reductions to rental income of $27,000 and $148,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, due to the amortization of net intangible assets resulting from the above-market and below-market lease values. | ||||||||||||
As of September 30, 2014, the value of in-place leases resulted in net intangible assets of $2.7 million, net of $7.5 million of accumulated amortization with a weighted average amortization period of 7.7 years, and net intangible liabilities of $3.7 million, net of $6.4 million of accumulated amortization with a weighted average amortization period of 4.7 years. As of December 31, 2013, the value of in-place leases resulted in net intangible assets of $3.7 million, net of $6.6 million of accumulated amortization and net intangible liabilities of $5.4 million, net of $4.8 million of accumulated amortization. | ||||||||||||
Evaluation Of Asset Impairment | ' | |||||||||||
Evaluation of asset impairment | ||||||||||||
The Company evaluates its assets used in operations for impairment by identifying indicators of impairment and by comparing the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows for each asset to the asset’s carrying value. When indicators of impairment are present and the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying value of such asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s current carrying value and its value based on discounting its estimated future cash flows. In addition, the Company evaluates its assets held for disposition for impairment. Assets held for disposition are reported at the lower of their carrying value or fair value, less cost of disposition. At September 30, 2014, the Company did not consider any assets to be impaired. | ||||||||||||
Stock Compensation | ' | |||||||||||
Stock compensation | ||||||||||||
All share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as stock compensation in the Company’s income statement based on their grant date fair values. See Note 11. | ||||||||||||
Revenue And Expense Recognition | ' | |||||||||||
Revenue and expense recognition | ||||||||||||
The Company must meet four basic criteria before revenue can be recognized: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; the delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; the fee is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured. All leases are classified as operating leases. Rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases. Straight-line rent is recognized for all tenants with contractual fixed increases in rent that are not included on the Company’s credit watch list. Deferred rent receivable represents rental revenue recognized on a straight-line basis in excess of billed rents. Reimbursements from tenants for real estate taxes and other recoverable operating expenses are recognized as rental income in the period the applicable costs are incurred. Property management fees are recognized in the period earned. | ||||||||||||
Costs incurred in connection with leasing (primarily tenant improvements and lease commissions) are capitalized and amortized over the lease period. | ||||||||||||
Gains From Sales Of Real Estate Facilities | ' | |||||||||||
Gains from sales of real estate facilities | ||||||||||||
The Company recognizes gains from sales of real estate facilities at the time of sale using the full accrual method, provided that various criteria related to the terms of the transactions and any subsequent involvement by the Company with the properties sold are met. If the criteria are not met, the Company defers the gains and recognizes them when the criteria are met or uses the installment or cost recovery methods as appropriate under the circumstances. | ||||||||||||
General And Administrative Expenses | ' | |||||||||||
General and administrative expenses | ||||||||||||
General and administrative expenses include executive and other compensation, office expenses, professional fees, acquisition transaction costs, state income taxes and other such administrative items. | ||||||||||||
Income Taxes | ' | |||||||||||
Income taxes | ||||||||||||
The Company has qualified and intends to continue to qualify as a REIT, as defined in Section 856 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As a REIT, the Company is not subject to federal income tax to the extent that it distributes its REIT taxable income to its shareholders. A REIT must distribute at least 90% of its taxable income each year. In addition, REITs are subject to a number of organizational and operating requirements. The Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property and to federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed taxable income. The Company believes it met all organization and operating requirements to maintain its REIT status during 2013 and intends to continue to meet such requirements for 2014. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. | ||||||||||||
The Company can recognize a tax benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that a particular tax position will be sustained upon examination or audit. To the extent that the “more likely than not” standard has been satisfied, the benefit associated with a position is measured as the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being recognized upon settlement. As of September 30, 2014, the Company did not recognize any tax benefit for uncertain tax positions. | ||||||||||||
Accounting For Preferred Equity Issuance Costs | ' | |||||||||||
Accounting for preferred equity issuance costs | ||||||||||||
The Company records issuance costs as a reduction to paid-in capital on its balance sheet at the time the preferred securities are issued and reflects the carrying value of the preferred equity at the stated value. Such issuance costs are recorded as non-cash preferred equity distributions at the time the Company notifies the holders of preferred stock or units of its intent to redeem such shares or units. | ||||||||||||
Net Income Per Common Share | ' | |||||||||||
Net income per common share | ||||||||||||
Per share amounts are computed using the number of weighted average common shares outstanding. “Diluted” weighted average common shares outstanding includes the dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock units under the treasury stock method. “Basic” weighted average common shares outstanding excludes such effect. The Company's restricted stock units are participating securities and are included in the computation of basic and diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. The Company’s restricted stock unit holders are paid non-forfeitable dividends in excess of the expense recorded which results in a reduction in net income allocable to common shareholders and unit holders. Earnings per share has been calculated as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts): | ||||||||||||

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||
Recently issued accounting standards | ||||||||||||
In April, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued amendments to guidance for reporting discontinued operations and disposals of components of an entity. The amended guidance requires that a disposal representing a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s financial results or a business activity classified as held for sale should be reported as discontinued operations. The amendments also expand the disclosure requirements for discontinued operations and add new disclosures for individually significant dispositions that do not qualify as discontinued operations. The amendments are effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2014 (early adoption is permitted only for disposals that have not been previously reported). During the first quarter of 2014, the Company early adopted the amended guidance, which did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial position or results of operations. | ||||||||||||
In May, 2014, the FASB issued new accounting guidance which amended the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition. The new accounting guidance establishes principles for recognizing revenue upon the transfer of promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the expected consideration received in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning October 1, 2017. Early adoption is not permitted. The amendments may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of initial application. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the new accounting guidance on its consolidated financial statements. | ||||||||||||
