1. Business of Organization

(the "Company") is a full-service real estate company with extensive experience developing, building, owning, and managing high-quality, institutional-grade office, retail, and multifamily properties in attractive markets primarily throughout the Mid-Atlantic and Southeastern United States.
The Company is a real estate investment trust ("REIT"), the sole general partner of Armada Hoffler, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership") and, as of March 31, 2021, owned 74.2% of the economic interest in the Operating Partnership, of which 0.1% is held as general partnership units. The operations of the Company are carried on primarily through the Operating Partnership and the wholly owned subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership.

Refer to Note 5 for information related to the Company's recent acquisitions and dispositions of properties.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial position and results of operations of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and any interests in variable interest entities ("VIEs") where the Company has been determined to be the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which are necessary for the fair presentation of the financial condition and results of operations for the interim periods presented.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with the requirements for interim financial information. Accordingly, these interim financial statements have not been audited and exclude certain disclosures required for annual financial statements. Also, the operating results presented for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year, particularly in light of the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") pandemic and its effects on the domestic and global economies. The pandemic has led to continuous changes in operational restrictions imposed by governments and other authorities around the world, including federal, state, and local authorities in the United States, including restrictions on freedom of movement and business operations such as travel bans, border closings, business closures, quarantines, and shelter-in-place orders, causing many of the Company’s tenants, particularly in the Company’s retail portfolio, to suspend or limit operations for certain periods of time. We anticipate that the global health crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the related responses intended to mitigate its spread will continue to adversely affect business activity, particularly relating to our retail tenants, across the markets in which we operate. In light of the changing nature of the COVID-19 pandemic and uncertainty regarding the duration, severity, and possible resurgences of COVID-19 cases in future periods, the full impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our business is currently unknown and unquantifiable. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed. Such estimates are based on management’s historical experience and best judgment after considering past, current, and expected events and economic conditions. Actual results could differ significantly from management’s estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain items have been reclassified from their prior year classifications to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net income or stockholders' equity as previously reported.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted:
Reference Rate Reform
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2020-04 Reference Rate Reform - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (Topic 848), which became effective on March 12, 2020 and generally can be applied through December 31, 2022. ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that adopting this standard may have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
Earnings Per Share
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06 an update to ASC Topic 470 and ASC Topic 815, which will be effective beginning January 1, 2022. ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments and removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception. This ASU also simplifies diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas and provides updated disclosure requirements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-06 on its consolidated financial statements.
Other Accounting Policies
See the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 for a description of other accounting principles upon which basis the accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared.
3. Segments
Net operating income (segment revenues minus segment expenses) is the measure used by the Company’s chief operating decision-maker to assess segment performance. Net operating income is not a measure of operating income or cash flows from operating activities as measured by GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. As a result, net operating income should not be considered an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Not all companies calculate net operating income in the same manner. The Company considers net operating income to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income because it assists both investors and management in understanding the core operations of the Company’s real estate and construction businesses.
Net operating income of the Company’s reportable segments for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was as follows (in thousands):

4. Leases
Lessee Disclosures
As a lessee, the Company has nine ground leases on eight properties with initial terms that range from 5 to 61 years and options to extend up to an additional 70 years in certain cases. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company's sole discretion. The depreciable life of assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term. Six of these leases have been classified as operating leases and three of these leases have been classified as finance leases. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
Lessor Disclosures
As a lessor, the Company leases its properties under operating leases and recognizes base rents on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company also recognizes revenue from tenant recoveries, through which tenants reimburse the Company on an accrual basis for certain expenses such as utilities, janitorial services, repairs and maintenance, security and alarms, parking lot and ground maintenance, administrative services, management fees, insurance, and real estate taxes. Rental revenues are reduced by the amount of any leasing incentives amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the applicable lease. In addition, the Company recognizes contingent rental revenue (e.g., percentage rents based on tenant sales thresholds) when the sales thresholds are met. Many tenant leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term from one to 15 years or more. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the tenant's sole discretion. The Company includes a renewal period in the lease term only if it appears at lease inception that the renewal is reasonably assured.
Rental revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 comprised the following (in thousands):

Impairment of Real Estate
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recognized impairment of real estate of $3.0 million related to the Socastee Commons shopping center in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The Company anticipates a decline in cash flows due to the expiration of the anchor tenant lease. The Company has not re-leased the anchor tenant space and has determined that it is not probable that this space will be leased in the near future at rates sufficient to recover the Company’s investment in the property. The Company has recorded an impairment loss equal to the excess of the book value of the property’s assets over the estimated fair value of the property.
Equity Method Investment
Harbor Point Parcel 3
The Company owns a 50% interest in Harbor Point Parcel 3, a joint venture with Beatty Development Group, for purposes of developing T. Rowe Price's new global headquarters office building in Baltimore, Maryland. The Company is a noncontrolling partner in the joint venture and will serve as the project's general contractor. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company invested $3.9 million in Harbor Point Parcel 3. The Company has a total equity commitment of up to $30.0 million relating to this project. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the carrying value of the Company's investment in Harbor Point Parcel 3 was $5.0 million and $1.1 million, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, Harbor Point Parcel 3 had no operating activity, and therefore the Company received no allocated income.
Based on the terms of the operating agreement, the Company has concluded that Harbor Point Parcel 3 is a VIE and that the Company holds a variable interest. The Company does not have the power to direct the activities of the project that most significantly impact its performance. Accordingly, the Company is not the project's primary beneficiary and, therefore, does not consolidate Harbor Point Parcel 3 in its consolidated financial statements. The Company has significant influence over the project due to its 50% ownership as well as certain rights and responsibilities relating to the development project. The Company's investment in the project is recorded as an equity method investment in the consolidated balance sheets.

Interlock Commercial
In March 2021, the Company loaned an additional $7.5 million as part of the Interlock Commercial loan to fund project costs not funded by the senior lender on the project.
Delray Beach Plaza
On February 26, 2021, the Company acquired Delray Beach Plaza, a Whole Foods-anchored retail property located in Delray Beach, Florida for a contract price of $27.6 million plus capitalized transaction costs of $0.2 million. The developer of this property repaid the Company's mezzanine note receivable of $14.3 million at the time of the acquisition.
Allowance for Loan Losses
The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily through its mezzanine lending activities. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had two mezzanine loans, both of which are financing development projects in various stages of completion or lease-up. Each of these projects is subject to a loan that is senior to the Company’s mezzanine loan. Interest on these loans is paid in kind and is generally not expected to be paid until a sale of the project after completion of the development.
The Company's management performs a quarterly analysis of the loan portfolio to determine the risk of credit loss based on the progress of development activities, including leasing activities, projected development costs, and current and projected mezzanine and senior construction loan balances. The Company estimates future losses on its notes receivable using risk ratings that correspond to probabilities of default and loss given default. The Company's risk ratings are as follows:
•Pass: loans in this category are adequately collateralized by a development project with conditions materially consistent with the Company's underwriting assumptions.
•Special Mention: loans in this category show signs that the economic performance of the project may suffer as a result of slower-than-expected leasing activity or an extended development or marketing timeline. Loans in this category warrant increased monitoring by management.
•Substandard: loans in this category may not be fully collected by the Company unless remediation actions are taken. Remediation actions may include obtaining additional collateral or assisting the borrower with asset management activities to prepare the project for sale. The Company will also consider placing the loan on nonaccrual status if it does not believe that additional interest accruals will ultimately be collected.
On a quarterly basis, the Company compares the risk inherent in its loans to industry loan loss data experienced during past business cycles. The Company updated the risk ratings for each of its notes receivable as of March 31, 2021 and obtained industry loan loss data relative to these risk ratings. The Company obtained industry loan loss data relative to these risk ratings as of December 31, 2020. Each of the outstanding loans as of March 31, 2021 was Pass-rated.
At December 31, 2020, the Company reported $135.4 million of notes receivable, net of allowances of $2.6 million. At
March 31, 2021, the Company reported $133.2 million of notes receivable, net of allowances of $1.7 million. Changes in the allowance for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 were as follows (in thousands):

Ending balance | | $ | 1,741 | | | $ | 3,202 | | | |
The Company places loans on non-accrual status when the loan balance, together with the balance of any senior loan, approximately equals the estimated realizable value of the underlying development project. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had one loan with non-accrual status with an amortized cost basis of $13.6 million. As of March 31, 2021, there were no loans on non-accrual status.
7. Construction Contracts
Construction contract costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings represent reimbursable costs and amounts earned under contracts in progress as of the balance sheet date. Such amounts become billable according to contract terms, which usually consider the passage of time, achievement of certain milestones, or completion of the project. The Company expects to bill and collect substantially all construction contract costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings as of March 31, 2021 during the next twelve months.
Billings in excess of construction contract costs and estimated earnings represent billings or collections on contracts made in advance of revenue recognized.
The following table summarizes the changes to the balances in the Company’s construction contract costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings account and the billings in excess of construction contract costs and estimated earnings account for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

Pre-contract costs of $2.0 million and $1.7 million were deferred as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Amortization of pre-contract costs for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

8. Indebtedness
Credit Facility
The Company has a senior credit facility that was amended and restated on October 3, 2019, which provides for a $355.0 million credit facility comprised of a $150.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the "revolving credit facility") and a $205.0 million senior unsecured term loan facility (the "term loan facility" and, together with the revolving credit facility, the "credit facility"), with a syndicate of banks.
The credit facility includes an accordion feature that allows the total commitments to be further increased to $700.0 million, subject to certain conditions, including obtaining commitments from any one or more lenders. The revolving credit facility has a scheduled maturity date of January 24, 2024, with two six-month extension options, subject to certain conditions, including payment of a 0.075% extension fee at each extension. The term loan facility has a scheduled maturity date of January 24, 2025.
The revolving credit facility bears interest at LIBOR (the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate) plus a margin ranging from 1.30% to 1.85% and the term loan facility bears interest at LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.80%, in each case depending on the Company's total leverage. The Company is also obligated to pay an unused commitment fee of 15 or 25 basis points on the unused portions of the commitments under the revolving credit facility, depending on the amount of borrowings under the credit facility.
As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the outstanding balance on the revolving credit facility was $10.0 million and the outstanding balance on the term loan facility was $205.0 million. As of March 31, 2021, the effective interest rates on the revolving credit facility and the term loan facility were 1.61% and 1.56%, respectively. The Company may, at any
time, voluntarily prepay any loan under the credit facility in whole or in part without premium or penalty. The Company's unencumbered borrowing pool will support revolving borrowings of up to $118 million as of March 31, 2021.
The Operating Partnership is the borrower, and its obligations under the credit facility are guaranteed by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries that are not otherwise prohibited from providing such guaranty. The credit agreement contains customary representations and warranties and financial and other affirmative and negative covenants. The Company's ability to borrow under the credit facility is subject to ongoing compliance with a number of financial covenants, affirmative covenants, and other restrictions. The credit agreement includes customary events of default, in certain cases subject to customary cure periods. The occurrence of an event of default, if not cured within the applicable cure period, would permit the lenders to, among other things, declare the unpaid principal, accrued and unpaid interest, and all other amounts payable under the credit facility to be immediately due and payable.
On January 7, 2021, the Operating Partnership entered into a $15.0 million standby letter of credit using the available capacity under the credit facility to guarantee the funding of its investment in the Harbor Point Parcel 3 partnership, which is the developer of T. Rowe Price's new global headquarters. This letter of credit is available for draw down on the revolving credit facility in the event the Company does not perform.
The Company is currently in compliance with all covenants governing the credit facility.

9. Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company enters into interest rate derivative contracts to manage exposure to interest rate risks. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Derivative financial instruments are recognized at fair value and presented within other assets and other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair value of derivatives that are neither designated nor qualify as hedging instruments are recognized within the change in fair value of interest rate derivatives in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income. For derivatives that qualify as cash flow hedges, the gain or loss is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into earnings in the periods during which the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings.

12. 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 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 — observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities
Level 3 — unobservable inputs
Except as disclosed below, the carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments approximate their fair values. Financial assets and liabilities whose fair values are measured on a recurring basis using Level 2 inputs consist of interest rate swaps and caps. The Company measures the fair values of these assets and liabilities based on prices provided by independent market participants that are based on observable inputs using market-based valuation techniques.
Financial assets and liabilities whose fair values are not measured at fair value but for which the fair value is disclosed include the Company's notes receivable and indebtedness. The fair value is estimated by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at estimated market rates consistent with the maturity, credit characteristics, and other terms of the arrangements, which are Level 3 inputs under the fair value hierarchy.
In certain cases, the inputs used to estimate the fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. For disclosure purposes, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Considerable judgment is used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments. The estimates of fair value presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized upon disposition of the financial instruments.
The carrying amounts and fair values of the Company’s financial instruments as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were as follows (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | March 31, 2021 | | December 31, 2020 |

The Company provides general contracting and real estate services to certain related party entities that are included in these condensed consolidated financial statements. Revenue from construction contracts with these entities was $12.4 million and $8.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Gross profit from such contracts was $0.5 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Real estate services fees from affiliated entities of the Company were not material for any of the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020. In addition, affiliated entities also reimburse the Company for monthly maintenance and facilities management services provided to the properties. Cost reimbursements earned by the Company from affiliated entities were not material for any of the three months ended March 31, 2021, and 2020.
The general contracting services described above include contracts with an aggregate price of $81.8 million with the developer of a mixed-use project, including an apartment building, retail space, and a parking garage to be located in Virginia Beach, Virginia. The developer is owned in part by certain executives of the Company, not including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. These contracts were executed in 2019 and are projected to result in aggregate gross profit of $3.1 million to the Company, representing a gross profit margin of 4.0%. As part of these contracts and per the requirements of the lender for this project, the Company issued a letter of credit for $9.5 million to secure certain performances of the Company's subsidiary construction company under the contracts, which remains outstanding as of March 31, 2021.

14. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings
The Company is from time to time involved in various disputes, lawsuits, warranty claims, environmental and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Management makes assumptions and estimates concerning the likelihood
and amount of any potential loss relating to these matters.
The Company currently is a party to various legal proceedings, none of which management expects will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. Management accrues a liability for litigation if an unfavorable outcome is determined to be probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. If an unfavorable outcome is determined to be probable and a range of loss can be reasonably estimated, management accrues the best estimate within the range; however, if no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other, the minimum amount within the range is accrued. Legal fees related to litigation are expensed as incurred. Management does not believe that the ultimate outcome of these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations; however, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties.
Under the Company’s leases, tenants are typically obligated to indemnify the Company from and against all liabilities, costs, and expenses imposed upon or asserted against it as owner of the properties due to certain matters relating to the operation of the properties by the tenant.
Guarantees
In connection with the Company's mezzanine lending activities, the Company has made guarantees to pay portions of certain senior loans of third parties associated with the development projects. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had an outstanding payment guarantee for Interlock Commercial for $34.3 million.
Commitments
The Company has a bonding line of credit for its general contracting construction business and is contingently liable under performance and payment bonds, bonds for cancellation of mechanics liens and defect bonds. Such bonds collectively totaled $2.4 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. In addition, as of March 31, 2021, the Company has outstanding a letter of credit for $9.5 million to secure certain performances of the Company's subsidiary construction company under a related party project.
On January 7, 2021, the Operating Partnership entered into a $15.0 million standby letter of credit using the available capacity under the credit facility to guarantee the funding of its investment in the Harbor Point Parcel 3 partnership, which is the developer of T. Rowe Price's new global headquarters. This letter of credit is available for draw down on the revolving credit facility in the event the Company does not perform.

Acquisitions
Delray Beach Plaza
On February 26, 2021, we acquired Delray Beach Plaza, a Whole Foods-anchored retail property located in Delray Beach, Florida, for a contract price of $27.6 million plus capitalized transaction costs of $0.2 million. As a part of this transaction, the developer of this property repaid our mezzanine note receivable of $14.3 million at the time of the acquisition.
Dispositions
On January 4, 2021, we completed the sale of the 7-Eleven outparcel at Hanbury Village for a sale price of $2.9 million. The gain on disposition was $2.4 million.
On January 14, 2021, we completed the sale of a land outparcel at Nexton Square for a sale price of $0.9 million. There was no gain or loss on the disposition.
On March 16, 2021, we completed the sale of Oakland Marketplace for a sale price of $5.5 million. The gain on disposition was $1.1 million.
On March 18, 2021, we completed the sale of easement rights at Courthouse 7-Eleven for a sale price of $0.3 million. The gain on disposition was $0.2 million.
Impaired property
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recognized impairment of real estate of $3.0 million related to the Socastee Commons shopping center in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. We anticipate a decline in cash flows due to the expiration of the anchor tenant lease. We have not re-leased the anchor tenant space and have determined that it is not probable that this space will be leased in the near future at rates sufficient to recover our investment in the property. We have recorded an impairment loss equal to the excess of the book value of the property’s assets over the estimated fair value of the property.
Unconsolidated joint ventures
During December 2020 we formed a 50/50 joint venture that will develop and build T. Rowe Price's new global headquarters in Baltimore's Harbor Point. Plans for this development are preliminary and will evolve during the next several quarters. T. Rowe Price agreed to a 15-year lease and plans to relocate its downtown Baltimore operations to a facility Harbor Point that is planned to contain at least 450,000 square feet of office space in the first half of 2024. Project costs are currently estimated at $250 million. When a construction loan is obtained, we will be responsible for providing completion guarantees and a partial payment guarantee to the lender for this project.
In conjunction with this build-to-suit project, another joint venture will develop and build a new mixed-use facility with structured parking on a neighboring site to accommodate T. Rowe Price's parking requirements and other parking requirements for the surrounding area. Plans for this project are also preliminary and will evolve during the next several quarters. Estimated project costs are $167 million, and the terms of this joint venture are currently being negotiated. We anticipate that this will be a 50/50 joint venture.
Under current plans and estimates, our equity requirement combined for the two projects would be $60 million. We anticipate breaking ground in late 2021 for the Parcel 4 project and early 2022 for the Parcel 3 project.
Development Business update
Portions of the Wills Wharf project were completed during the second quarter of 2020. As of March 31, 2021 approximately 48% of the project was placed in service. The remaining portions of the project are expected to be completed this year.
We commenced construction on the Chronicle Mill multifamily project in the first quarter of 2021. Our project costs are estimated at $54.0 million, of which $35.1 million will be funded with a construction loan, which was originated on May 5, 2021. We expect to deliver this project beginning in the third quarter of 2022.
Mezzanine Lending Program updates
The development projects securing our mezzanine loans had the following activity during the quarter:
Delray Beach Plaza: We exercised our option to purchase Delray Beach Plaza on February 26, 2021. The mezzanine loan was repaid as part of this purchase.
Solis Apartments at Interlock: This project was partially completed during the fourth quarter of 2020 and fully completed in the first quarter of 2021. The developer is currently marketing the project for sale. Current estimates of future operating results and projected sales proceeds from this project continue to support the full collection of our principal and interest upon the sale of the project.
Interlock Commercial: Portions of this project were delivered to tenants during the first quarter of 2021, with additional space to be delivered during the remainder of 2021 and 2022. We are monitoring the stabilization plans for this project, and the projected sales proceeds from this project continue to support the full collection of our principal and interest upon the sale of the project.
We continue to monitor leasing activity at these projects, as applicable, and will monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on leasing activity and development activity at each of these projects.
Impact of COVID-19 on our Business
Overview
In light of the changing nature of the COVID-19 pandemic and uncertainty regarding the duration, severity, the unknown timing or effectiveness of vaccines or other treatments, and possible resurgences of COVID-19 cases in future periods, the full impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our business is currently unknown and unquantifiable. While the full extent of the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on the U.S. economy and the U.S. real estate industry remains to be seen, the pandemic has presented significant challenges for us and many of our tenants. In the near-term, we and many of our tenants are focusing on implementing contingency plans to manage business disruptions caused by the pandemic and related actions intended to mitigate its spread. In the long-term, we might need to re-assess and consider modifying our operating model, underwriting criteria, and liquidity position to mitigate the impacts of future economic downturns, including as a result of a future resurgence of COVID-19 cases, the timing, severity, and duration of which cannot be predicted.
We anticipate that the global health crisis caused by COVID-19 and the related responses intended to mitigate its spread will continue to adversely affect business activity, particularly relating to our retail tenants, across the markets in which we operate. We have observed the impact of COVID-19 manifest in the form of business closures or significantly limited operations for periods of time in our retail portfolio, with the exception of tenants operating in certain "essential" businesses, which has resulted, and may in the future result in, a decline in on-time rental payments, increased requests from tenants for temporary rental relief, and potentially permanent closure of certain businesses. We expect these conditions to continue in varying duration and severity until such time when the COVID-19 pandemic is effectively contained. When COVID-19 is contained, depending on the rate and effectiveness of the containment efforts deployed by various national, state, and local governments, we anticipate a rebound in economic activity, although we are unable to predict the nature, timing, and sustainability of an economic recovery.
In an effort to protect the health and safety of our employees, as part of our initial response to the COVID-19 outbreak we took proactive, aggressive actions to adopt social distancing policies at our offices, properties, and construction jobsites, including: transitioning our office employees to a remote work environment during certain periods of time, which was greatly assisted by recent enhancements to our IT systems; limiting the number of employees attending in-person meetings; implementing limitations on travel; and ensuring all construction jobsites continue to comply with state and local social distancing and other health and safety protocols implemented by the Company.
From an operational perspective, we have remained in regular communication with our tenants, property managers, and vendors, and, where appropriate, have provided guidance relating to the availability of government relief programs that could support our tenants’ businesses. In response to the market and industry trends, we also have pursued, and expect to continue to pursue, cost-saving initiatives to align our overall cost structure, including proactively deferring previously announced development activity at several of our projects, postponing certain acquisition activity, slowing down redevelopment activity at The Cosmopolitan, and suspending non-essential capital expenditures. Although we believe these measures and other measures we may implement in the future will help mitigate the financial impacts of the pandemic on our business, there can be no assurances that we will accurately forecast the impact of adverse economic conditions on our business or that we will effectively align our cost structure, capital investments, and other expenditures with our revenue and spending levels in the future.
To evaluate market trends affecting public REITs across asset classes and to assess our response to COVID-19 relative to our peers, we have been monitoring information that has been released by public REITs, summary data released by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("Nareit") and other publicly available sources, and information obtained during our regular discussions with tenants. While we view information gathered from publicly available sources as helpful in assessing broader trends affecting the commercial real estate industry, we can provide no assurances that the estimates and assumptions used in preparing this third-party information are applicable to our business or ultimately will prove to be accurate. In addition, our asset management team, together with the rest of senior management, has dedicated significant resources to monitoring detailed portfolio performance on a real-time basis, including rent collections, requests for rent relief and uncollected payments, as well as negotiating rent deferments and other relief with certain of our tenants.
We will continue to actively monitor the implications of the COVID-19 pandemic on our and our tenants’ businesses and may take further actions to alter our business practices if we determine that such changes are in the best interests of our employees, tenants, residents, stockholders, and third-party construction customers, or as required by federal, state, or local authorities. It is not clear what the potential effects of such alterations or modifications, if any, may have on our business, including the effects on our tenants and residents and the corresponding impact on our results of operations and financial condition for the remainder of fiscal 2021 and thereafter.
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act, or the CARES Act, was enacted on March 27, 2020 in the United States. We have availed ourselves of the option to defer payment of the employer share of Social Security payroll taxes totaling $0.6 million that would otherwise have been owed from the date of enactment of the CARES Act through December 31, 2020. Congress passed the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 in December 2020, and the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 in March 2021 which include second and third economic stimulus packages, respectively, to address the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. We continue to assess the potential impacts of the current federal stimulus and relief legislation and any subsequent legislation, including our eligibility and our tenants for funding under programs designed to provide financial assistance to U.S. businesses.
We believe the diversification of our business across multiple asset classes (i.e., office, retail and multifamily), together with our third-party construction business, will help to mitigate the impact of the pandemic on our business to a greater extent than if our business were concentrated in a single asset class. However, as discussed in greater detail below, we expect the impact of the pandemic to continue to have a particularly adverse effect on many of our retail tenants, which will continue to adversely affect our results of operations even if the performance of our office and multifamily assets and our construction business remain close to historical levels. Furthermore, if the impacts of the pandemic continue for an extended period of time, we expect that certain office tenants and multifamily residents will experience greater financial distress, which could result in late payments, requests for rental relief, business closures, decreases in occupancy, reductions in rent, or increases in rent concessions or other accommodations, as applicable.
Operating Property Portfolio deferrals
We have received certain rent relief requests, most often in the form of rent deferral requests, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. We evaluate each tenant's rent relief request on an individual basis, considering a number of factors. As of March 31, 2021, we have deferred $5.3 million of recurring rental revenue. We have collected 88% of deferred rent due for
the first quarter of 2021. In addition to the deferrals, since the inception of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have granted approximately $1.6 million of COVID-19 related rental abatements. These rental abatements were generally accompanied by an increase in the tenant’s lease term or the lease terms were amended to be more favorable to us.
Multifamily Portfolio Residential Eviction Restrictions
Due to actions taken by state governments and limited working capacity for government courts and agencies, certain properties in our multifamily portfolio were subject to increased restrictions that limit our ability to evict tenants or charge late fees through June 30, 2021. At this time, certain restrictions previously in place have been lifted and many government courts and agencies have re-opened; however, there may be similar restrictions and limited working capacity for government courts and agencies in the future.
On September 4, 2020, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (the "CDC") issued an order to temporarily halt residential evictions to prevent the further spread of COVID-19 that effectively prohibits evictions for nonpayment through June 30, 2021 nationwide for residential tenants who submit a signed copy of a declaration form to their landlords. The specific declaration form to be used was prepared by the CDC and attached to the order. The order does not, on its own, prevent landlords from filing suits, obtaining judgments, or filing writs. It only prevents landlords from carrying out evictions if the tenant submits the signed declaration form to the landlord. If the tenant does not provide the declaration, the tenant can be evicted. The order does not apply to evictions that are for reasons other than nonpayment rent. The penalties for an organization that violates the order include fines of up to $200,000 per event ($500,000 if the eviction results in death). The order does not relieve any individual of any obligation to pay rent or comply with any other obligation under a lease, nor does it preclude the charging or collecting of fees, penalties, or interest as a result of the failure to pay rent under the terms of a lease. The order does not apply to commercial tenants.
As of the date of this filing, all residential landlords filing an eviction action in the State of North Carolina must provide the tenant with the required CDC Declaration form. If the landlord receives a completed Declaration form from the tenant, the landlord may not proceed to request a writ of possession. Evictions for reasons other than nonpayment of rent are not prohibited. These conditions apply to Greenside Apartments and are currently in effect through June 30, 2021.
State and local restrictions that remain in place for 1405 Point and Johns Hopkins Village, both located in Baltimore, Maryland, and for the Residences at Annapolis Junction, located in Howard County, Maryland are detailed below:
•City restrictions in place which prohibit rent increases, notices of increases, or assessment of late fees during the Maryland state of emergency. These restrictions will be in place until the governor's state of emergency is lifted and for ninety (90) days thereafter.
•State restrictions in place which prohibit evictions of tenants affected by COVID-19. Evictions cannot be processed until the state of emergency is terminated and the catastrophic health emergency is rescinded. The governor’s state of emergency order was renewed again on April 16, 2021.
Furthermore, the restriction on evictions in the State of Maryland applies to both our commercial and residential properties located in that state.
First Quarter 2021 and Recent Highlights
The following highlights our results of operations and significant transactions for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and other recent developments:
•Net income attributable to common stockholders and OP Unit holders of $3.1 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, compared to $8.2 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2020.
•Funds from operations attributable to common stockholders and OP Unit holders ("FFO") of $20.8 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, compared to $22.3 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2020. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."
•Normalized funds from operations available to common stockholders and OP Unit holders ("Normalized FFO") of $20.6 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, compared to $24.7 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2020. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."
•Announced a second quarter cash dividend of $0.16 per common share, resulting in the second consecutive quarter of dividend increases and a 45.5% cumulative increase year-to-date.
•Core operating property portfolio occupancy at 94.0% as of March 31, 2021 compared to 94.4% as of December 31, 2020. The Company's March 31, 2021 occupancy includes office at 97.2%, retail at 93.9%, and multifamily at 92.2% (conventional multifamily was 95.8% and student housing was 85.0%).
•Completed the sale of Oakland Marketplace, an unencumbered Kroger-anchored center, for gross proceeds of $5.5 million.
•Completed the off-market acquisition of Delray Beach Plaza, a Whole Foods-anchored center in Delray Beach, FL.
•Subsequent to quarter end, refinanced Southgate Square, the last of the Company's debt maturing in 2021.
•Board of Directors reaffirmed the Company’s commitment to leadership in corporate governance practices by amending the Company’s bylaws to implement a “proxy access” provision that enables eligible long-term stockholders to nominate and include their own director nominees in the Company’s proxy materials, along with the candidates nominated by the Company’s Board of Directors.
•Issued its 2020 Sustainability Report that highlights the Company's ongoing commitment to environmental, workplace health and safety, corporate social responsibility, corporate governance, and other sustainability matters over the course of 2020. The Sustainability Committee's 2020 Report can be accessed through the Sustainability page of the Company's website, ArmadaHoffler.com/Sustainability.
Segment Results of Operations
As of March 31, 2021, we operated our business in four segments: (i) office real estate, (ii) retail real estate, (iii) multifamily residential real estate, and (iv) general contracting and real estate services, which are conducted through our taxable REIT subsidiaries ("TRS"). Net operating income (segment revenues minus segment expenses) ("NOI") is the measure used by management to assess segment performance and allocate our resources among our segments. NOI is not a measure of operating income or cash flows from operating activities as measured by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") and is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. As a result, NOI should not be considered an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Not all companies calculate NOI in the same manner. We consider NOI to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income because it assists both investors and management in understanding the core operations of our real estate and construction businesses. See Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a reconciliation of NOI to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
We define same store properties as those properties that we owned and operated and that were stabilized for the entirety of both periods presented. We generally consider a property to be stabilized upon the earlier of: (i) the quarter after the property reaches 80% occupancy or (ii) the thirteenth quarter after the property receives its certificate of occupancy. Additionally, any property that is fully or partially taken out of service for the purpose of redevelopment is no longer considered stabilized until the redevelopment activities are complete, the asset is placed back into service, and the occupancy criterion above is again met. A property may also be fully or partially taken out of service as a result of a partial disposition, depending on the significance of the portion of the property disposed. Finally, any property classified as held for sale is taken out of service for the purpose of computing same store operating results.

Office same store NOI for the three months ended March 31, 2021 increased 0.8% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase relates primarily to decreased usage of utilities and cost saving measures implemented by the Company across the same store office portfolio in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Retail Segment Data

Segment NOI | | $ | 13,392 | | | $ | 15,225 | | | $ | (1,833) | | | | | | | |
Retail segment NOI for the three months ended March 31, 2021 decreased 12.0% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. The decrease relates primarily to the disposition of the seven-property retail portfolio in May 2020 and the Company’s decision to restructure the two leases with Regal Cinemas. These decreases were partially offset by the acquisition of Nexton Square in September 2020 and Delray Beach Plaza in February 2021.

Retail same store NOI for the three months ended March 31, 2021 decreased 7.1% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Retail rental revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2021 decreased 10.6% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 primarily as a result of the disposition of the seven-property retail portfolio in May 2020 and the Company’s decision to restructure the two leases with Regal Cinemas. These decreases were partially offset by the acquisition of Nexton Square in September 2020 and Delray Beach Plaza in February 2021.

Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2021 increased 26.5% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase was attributable to property acquisitions and development deliveries. The increase was partially offset by dispositions in 2020 and certain assets that became fully depreciated.
Amortization of right-of-use assets - finance leases for the three months ended March 31, 2021 had a nominal increase compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 primarily due to the acquisition of the Delray Beach Plaza shopping center, which has a ground lease classified as a finance lease.
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 increased by $0.2 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase resulted from higher compensation and benefit cost driven by annual merit increases.
Acquisition, development and other pursuit costs for the three months ended March 31, 2021 increased nominally compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 due to the cost write-off relating to a strategic decision to no longer pursue a potential development project.
Impairment charges for the three months ended March 31, 2021 increased by $2.9 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 due to the impairment of Socastee Commons recorded in the current period.
Gain on real estate dispositions for the three months ended March 31, 2021 relates to the sale of the 7-Eleven at Hanbury, Oakland Marketplace, and easement rights at a non-operating land parcel. There was no gain on real estate dispositions during the three months ended March 31, 2020.
Interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2021 decreased 43.0% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020, primarily as a result of the lower notes receivable balance in the current period due to the repayment of some of our mezzanine loans at the end of 2020 and the beginning of 2021.
Interest expense on indebtedness for the three months ended March 31, 2021 decreased 4.3% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020, primarily due to the overall decline in variable interest rates, the disposition of several properties, and the refinance of several loans at the end of 2020 and the beginning of 2021.
Interest expense on finance leases for the three months ended March 31, 2021 increased 58.1% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 primarily due to the acquisition of the Delray Beach Plaza shopping center, which has a ground lease classified as a finance lease.
The change in fair value of derivatives and other for the three months ended March 31, 2021 flipped to an increase in fair value from a decrease compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 as a result of significant decreases in forward LIBOR (the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate).
Unrealized credit loss release (provision) changed by $0.4 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 and switched from unrealized credit loss provision in 2020 to unrealized credit loss release in the 2021 period primarily due to differences in the economic outlook relating to the development projects securing the mezzanine loans.
Other income (expense), net for the three months ended March 31, 2021 increased by $0.1 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020, primarily due to insurance reimbursements on certain properties.
The income tax provision and benefits that we recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 were attributable to the taxable profits and losses of our development and construction businesses that we operate through our TRS.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We believe our primary short-term liquidity requirements consist of general contractor expenses, operating expenses, and other expenditures associated with our properties, including tenant improvements, leasing commissions and leasing incentives, dividend payments to our stockholders required to maintain our REIT qualification, debt service, capital expenditures, new real estate development projects, mezzanine loan funding requirements, and strategic acquisitions. We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements through net cash provided by operations, reserves established from existing cash, borrowings under construction loans to fund new real estate development and construction, borrowings available under our credit facility, and net proceeds from the sale of common stock through our at-the-market continuous equity offering program, which is discussed below.
Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary for the repayment of debt at or prior to maturity, general contracting expenses, property development and acquisitions, tenant improvements, and capital improvements. We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements with net cash from operations, long-term secured and unsecured indebtedness, the issuance of equity and debt securities, and the opportunistic disposition of non-core properties. We also may fund property development and acquisitions and capital improvements using our credit facility pending long-term financing.
As of March 31, 2021, we had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $24.8 million available for both current liquidity needs as well as development and redevelopment activities. We also had restricted cash in escrow of $9.8 million, some of which is available for capital expenditures and certain operating expenses at our operating properties. As of March 31, 2021, we had $93.2 million of available borrowings under our credit facility to meet our short-term liquidity requirements and $48.4 million of available borrowings under our construction loans to fund development activities.
We may enter into standby letters of credit using the available capacity under the credit facility. Letters of credit generally are available for draw down in the event the Company does not perform under certain obligations. As of March 31, 2021, the Operating Partnership had total outstanding letters of credit of $15.0 million to guarantee the funding of its investment in the Harbor Point Parcel 3 partnership (T. Rowe Price global headquarters).
As of March 31, 2021, we had a $19.5 million loan on Southgate Square scheduled to mature in 2021. In April 2021, this loan was refinanced and maturity date was extended to April 29, 2024. We believe that together with our cash on hand, revolving credit facility, and general ability to access the capital markets, we will have sufficient resources to finance our operations and fund our debt service requirements and capital expenditures over the next 12 months.
ATM Program
On March 10, 2020, we commenced an at-the-market continuous equity offering program (the "ATM Program") through which we may, from time to time, issue and sell shares of our common stock and shares of our 6.75% Series A
Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock") having an aggregate offering price of up to $300.0 million, to or through our sales agents and, with respect to shares of our common stock, may enter into separate forward sales agreements to or through the forward purchaser.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we issued and sold 717,388 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $12.82 per share under the ATM Program, receiving net proceeds, after offering costs and commissions, of $9.1 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we did not issue any shares of Series A Preferred Stock under the ATM Program. Shares having an aggregate offering price of $250.4 million remained unsold under the ATM Program as of May 4, 2021.
Credit Facility
We have a senior credit facility that was amended and restated on October 3, 2019. The total commitments are $355.0 million, comprised of a $150.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility and a $205.0 million senior unsecured term loan facility (the "term loan facility" and, together with the revolving credit facility, the "credit facility"), with a syndicate of banks. Subject to available borrowing capacity, we intend to use future borrowings under the credit facility for general corporate purposes, including funding acquisitions, mezzanine lending, and development and redevelopment of properties in our portfolio, and for working capital. Our unencumbered borrowing pool will support revolving borrowings of up to $118 million as of March 31, 2021.
The credit facility includes an accordion feature that allows the total commitments to be increased to $700.0 million, subject to certain conditions, including obtaining commitments from any one or more lenders. The revolving credit facility has a scheduled maturity date of January 24, 2024, with two six-month extension options, subject to certain conditions, including payment of a 0.075% extension fee at each extension. The term loan facility has a scheduled maturity date of January 24, 2025.
The revolving credit facility bears interest at LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.30% to 1.85% and the term loan facility bears interest at LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.80%, in each case depending on our total leverage. We are also obligated to pay an unused commitment fee of 15 or 25 basis points on the unused portions of the commitments under the revolving credit facility, depending on the amount of borrowings under the revolving credit facility. If we attain investment grade credit ratings from S&P or Moody’s, we may elect to have borrowings become subject to interest rates based on our credit ratings. We may, at any time, voluntarily prepay any loan under the credit facility in whole or in part without premium or penalty.
The Operating Partnership is the borrower under the credit facility, and its obligations under the credit facility are guaranteed by us and certain of our subsidiaries that are not otherwise prohibited from providing such guaranty.
The credit agreement contains customary representations and warranties and financial and other affirmative and negative covenants. Our ability to borrow under the credit facility is subject to our ongoing compliance with a number of financial covenants, affirmative covenants and other restrictions, including the following:
•Total leverage ratio of not more than 60% (or 65% for the two consecutive quarters following any acquisition with a purchase price of at least up to $100.0 million, but only up to two times during the term of the credit facility);
•Ratio of adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the credit agreement) to fixed charges of not less than 1.50 to 1.0;
•Tangible net worth of not less than the sum of $567,106,000 and amount equal to 75% of the net equity proceeds received after June 30, 2019;
•Ratio of secured indebtedness to total asset value of not more than 40%;
•Ratio of secured recourse debt to total asset value of not more than 20%;
•Total unsecured leverage ratio of not more than 60% (or 65% for the two consecutive quarters following any acquisition with a purchase price of at least up to $100.0 million, but only up to two times during the term of the credit facility);
•Unencumbered interest coverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) of not less than 1.75 to 1.0;
•Maintenance of a minimum of at least 15 unencumbered properties (as defined in the credit agreement) with an unencumbered asset value (as defined in the credit agreement) of not less than $300.0 million at any time;
•Minimum occupancy rate (as defined in the credit agreement) for all unencumbered properties of not less than 80% at any time; and
•Maximum aggregate rental revenue from any single tenant of not more than 30% of rental revenues with respect to all leases of unencumbered properties (as defined in the credit agreement).
The credit agreement limits our ability to pay cash dividends. However, so long as no default or event of default exists, the credit agreement allows us to pay cash dividends with respect to any 12-month period in an amount not to exceed the greater of: (i) 95% of adjusted funds from operations (as defined in the credit agreement) or (ii) the amount required for us (a) to maintain our status as a REIT and (b) to avoid income or excise tax under the Code. If certain defaults or events of default exist, we may pay cash dividends with respect to any 12-month period to the extent necessary to maintain our status as a REIT. The credit agreement also restricts the amount of capital that we can invest in specific categories of assets, such as unimproved land holdings, development properties, notes receivable, mortgages, mezzanine loans and unconsolidated affiliates, and restricts the amount of stock and Operating Partnership units that we may repurchase during the term of the credit facility.
We may, at any time, voluntarily prepay any loan under the credit facility in whole or in part without premium or penalty, except for those portions subject to an interest rate swap agreement.
The credit agreement includes customary events of default, in certain cases subject to customary periods to cure. The occurrence of an event of default, following the applicable cure period, would permit the lenders to, among other things, declare the unpaid principal, accrued and unpaid interest and all other amounts payable under the credit facility to be immediately due and payable.
On January 7, 2021, we entered into a $15.0 million standby letter of credit using the available capacity under the credit facility to guarantee the funding of our investment in the Harbor Point Parcel 3 partnership, which is the developer of T. Rowe Price's new global headquarters. This letter of credit is available for draw down on the revolving credit facility in the event we do not perform.
We are currently in compliance with all covenants under the credit agreement.

| | (in thousands) |
Operating Activities | | $ | 8,135 | | | $ | 20,307 | | | $ | (12,172) | |
Investing Activities | | (31,119) | | | (49,170) | | | 18,051 | |
Financing Activities | | 7,142 | | | 38,072 | | | (30,930) | |

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash, End of Period | | $ | 34,588 | | | $ | 52,788 | | | |
Net cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2021 decreased $12.2 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 primarily as a result of timing differences in operating assets and liabilities.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we invested $18.1 million less in cash compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 primarily due to decreased development activity, increased disposition activity, lower levels of mezzanine funding, and the repayment of the Delray Beach Plaza mezzanine loan, which was partially offset by more cash invested in the acquisition of operating properties and equity method investments.
Net cash provided by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2021 decreased by $30.9 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 primarily as a result of decreased borrowings under the revolving credit facility and mortgage loans, which was partially offset by an increase in net proceeds from equity issuances and a decrease in dividends and distributions paid.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We calculate FFO in accordance with the standards established by Nareit. Nareit defines FFO as net income (loss) (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable operating property, real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of deferred financing costs), impairment of real estate assets, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
FFO is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure. Management uses FFO as a supplemental performance measure because we believe that FFO is beneficial to investors as a starting point in measuring our operational performance. Specifically, in excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization and gains and losses from property dispositions, which do not relate to or are not indicative of operating performance, FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared year-over-year, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. We also believe that, as a widely recognized measure of the performance of REITs, FFO will be used by investors as a basis to compare our operating performance with that of other REITs.
However, because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and captures neither the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions nor the level of capital expenditures and leasing commissions necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, all of which have real economic effects and could materially impact our results from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of our performance is limited. In addition, other equity REITs may not calculate FFO in accordance with the Nareit definition as we do, and, accordingly, our calculation of FFO may not be comparable to such other REITs’ calculation of FFO. Accordingly, FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income as a measure of our performance. FFO should not be used as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends or service indebtedness. Also, FFO should not be used as a supplement to or substitute for cash flow from operating activities computed in accordance with GAAP.
We also believe that the computation of FFO in accordance with Nareit’s definition includes certain items that are not indicative of the results provided by our operating property portfolio and affect the comparability of our year-over-year performance. Accordingly, management believes that Normalized FFO is a more useful performance measure that excludes certain items, including but not limited to, debt extinguishment losses and prepayment penalties, impairment of intangible assets and liabilities, property acquisition, development and other pursuit costs, mark-to-market adjustments for interest rate
derivatives, provision for unrealized credit losses, amortization of right-of-use assets attributable to finance leases, severance related costs, and other non-comparable items.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of FFO and Normalized FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure:

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to exercise our best judgment in making estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience and other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis, based upon then-currently available information. Actual results could differ from these estimates. We discuss the accounting policies and estimates that are most critical to understanding our reported financial results in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is processed, recorded, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and regulations of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding
required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
We have carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, regarding the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2021, the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded, as of March 31, 2021, that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act: (i) is processed, recorded, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There have been no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
