Phillips Edison Grocery Center REIT II, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. ORGANIZATION

Phillips Edison Grocery Center REIT II, Inc. (“we,” the “Company,” “our,” or “us”) was formed as a Maryland corporation in June 2013. Substantially all of our business is conducted through Phillips Edison Grocery Center Operating Partnership II, L.P., (the “Operating Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership formed in June 2013. We are a limited partner of the Operating Partnership, and our wholly owned subsidiary, PE Grocery Center OP GP II LLC, is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. We closed our primary offering of shares of common stock on September 15, 2015. We continue to offer up to 55.6 million shares of common stock under our distribution reinvestment plan (the “DRIP”).

Our advisor is Phillips Edison NTR II LLC (“PE-NTR II”), which is directly or indirectly owned by Phillips Edison Limited Partnership (the “Phillips Edison sponsor”). Under the terms of the advisory agreement between PE-NTR II and us (the “PE-NTR II Agreement”), PE-NTR II is responsible for the management of our day-to-day activities and the implementation of our investment strategy. The advisory agreement has a one-year term, but may be renewed for an unlimited number of successive one-year periods upon the mutual consent of the parties and approval of the independent members of our board of directors.

We invest primarily in well-occupied, grocery-anchored neighborhood and community shopping centers having a mix of creditworthy national and regional retailers selling necessity-based goods and services in strong demographic markets throughout the United States. In addition, we may invest in other retail properties including power and lifestyle shopping centers, multi-tenant shopping centers, free-standing single-tenant retail properties, and other real estate or real estate-related assets.

As of September 30, 2016, we wholly-owned fee simple interests in 70 real estate properties acquired from third parties unrelated to us or PE-NTR II. In addition, we own a 20% equity interest in a joint venture that owned seven real estate properties (see Note 4).

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Set forth below is a summary of the significant accounting estimates and policies that management believes are important to the preparation of our consolidated interim financial statements. Certain of our accounting estimates are particularly important for an understanding of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by management. As a result, these estimates are subject to a degree of uncertainty. There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, except for the items discussed below. For a full summary of our accounting policies, refer to our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 3, 2016.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation—The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“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. Readers of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should refer to the audited consolidated financial statements of Phillips Edison Grocery Center REIT II, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2015, which are included in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the periods presented have been included in this Quarterly Report. Our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the full year.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.

Gain on Sale of Assets—We recognize sales of assets only upon the closing of the transaction with the purchaser. We recognize gains (net of any taxes) on assets sold using the full accrual method upon closing if the collectibility of the sales price is reasonably assured, we are not obligated to perform any significant activities after the sale to earn the profit, we have received adequate initial investment from the purchaser, and other profit recognition criteria have been satisfied. We may defer recognition of gains in whole or in part until: (i) the profit is determinable, meaning that the collectibility of the sales price is reasonably assured or the amount that will not be collectible can be estimated; and (ii) the earnings process is virtually complete, meaning that we are not obliged to perform any significant activities after the sale to earn the profit. Gains and losses on transfers of operating properties resulting from the sale of a partial interest in properties to unconsolidated joint ventures are recognized using the partial sale provisions under Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 360-20, Property, Plant & Equipment - Real Estate Sales.

6

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture—We account for our investment in our unconsolidated joint venture using the equity method of accounting as we exercise significant influence over, but do not control, this entity. This investment was initially recorded at cost and is subsequently adjusted for contributions made to and distributions received from the joint venture. Earnings or loss for our investment are recognized in accordance with the terms of the applicable joint venture agreement, generally through a pro rata allocation. Under a pro rata allocation, net income or loss is allocated between the partners in the joint venture based on their respective stated ownership percentages.

To recognize the character of distributions from our unconsolidated joint venture, we review the nature of cash distributions received for purposes of determining whether such distributions should be classified as either a return on investment, which would be included in operating activities, or a return of investment, which would be included in investing activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows.

On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are indicators, including the operating performance of the underlying real estate and general market conditions, that the value of our investment in our unconsolidated joint venture may be impaired. An investment’s value is impaired only if management’s estimate of the fair value of the investment is less than its carrying value and such difference is deemed to be other-than-temporary. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over its estimated fair value.

Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon a discounted cash flow model for each specific investment that includes all estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specified holding period and, where applicable, any estimated debt premiums, capitalization rates, discount rates and credit spreads used in these models are based upon rates we believe to be within a reasonable range of current market rates.

Share-based Compensation—We account for our share-based compensation plan based on the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance which requires that compensation expense be recognized based on the fair value of the stock awards less estimated forfeitures. Our restricted stock grants vest based upon the completion of a service period (“service-based grants”). Service-based grants are valued according to the determined value per share for our common stock at the date of grant. Awards of service-based grants of stock are expensed as compensation on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. 

Reclassifications—The following line item on our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2015, was reclassified to conform to the current year presentation:

• Acquired Intangible Lease Assets was separated into Acquired Above-Market Lease Assets and Acquired In-Place Lease Assets.

Newly Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements—In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Topic 835): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”). This update amends existing guidance to require the presentation of certain debt issuance costs in the balance sheet as a deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability instead of a deferred charge. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15, Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements (“ASU 2015-15”). This update provides guidance regarding the presentation and subsequent measurement of debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements. We adopted ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 on January 1, 2016, and retrospectively applied the guidance for all periods presented. Unamortized debt issuance costs of $4.8 million and $1.4 million are included in Mortgages and Loans Payable, Net as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, which were previously included in Deferred Financing Expense, Net on our consolidated balance sheets. The remaining amounts included in Other Assets, Net on our consolidated balance sheets were related to our revolving credit facility. The adoption did not have an impact on our results of operations (see Note 6).

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis to ASC Topic 810 Consolidation (“ASU 2015-02”). ASU 2015-02 includes all reporting entities within the scope of Subtopic 810-10 Consolidation - Overall, including limited partnerships and similar legal entities, unless a scope exception applies. Overall the amendments in this update are to simplify the codification and reduce the number of consolidation models and place more emphasis on risk of loss when determining controlling financial interests. ASU 2015-02 was effective beginning in the first quarter of the year ending December 31, 2016. We have evaluated the impact of the adoption of ASU 2015-02 on our consolidated financial statements and have determined under ASU 2015-02 that the Operating Partnership is considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”). We are the primary beneficiary of the VIE and our partnership interest is considered a majority voting interest. As such, this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

7

The following table provides a brief description of recent accounting pronouncements that could have a material effect on our financial statements:

Standard	Description	Date of Adoption	Effect on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers	This update outlines a comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. ASU 2014-09 states that “an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.” While ASU 2014-09 specifically references contracts with customers, it may apply to certain other transactions such as the sale of real estate or equipment. In 2015, the FASB provided for a one-year deferral of the effective date for ASU 2014-09, making it effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017.	January 1, 2018	We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842)	This update amends existing guidance by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, but early adoption is permitted.	January 1, 2019	We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”) defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 emphasizes that fair value is intended to be a market-based measurement, as opposed to a transaction-specific measurement. Fair value is defined by ASC 820 as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, various techniques and assumptions can be used to estimate the fair value. Assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from three levels of the fair value hierarchy, as follows:

Level 1—Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access at the measurement date. An active market is defined as a market in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2—Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active (markets with few transactions), inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

Level 3—Unobservable inputs, only used to the extent that observable inputs are not available, reflect our assumptions about the pricing of an asset or liability.

Considerable judgment is necessary to develop estimated fair values of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts we did or could actually realize upon disposition of the financial assets and liabilities previously sold or currently held.

The following describes the methods we use to estimate the fair value of our financial and non-financial assets and liabilities:

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Accounts Receivable, and Accounts Payable and Other Liabilities—We consider the carrying values of these financial instruments to approximate fair value because of the short period of time between origination of the instruments and their expected realization.

Real Estate Investments—The purchase prices of the investment properties, including related lease intangible assets and liabilities, were allocated at estimated fair value based on Level 3 inputs, such as discount rates, capitalization rates, comparable sales, replacement costs, income and expense growth rates, and current market rents and allowances as determined by management.

8

Real estate assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the individual property may not be recoverable, or at least annually. In such an event, a comparison will be made of the projected operating cash flows of each property on an undiscounted basis to the carrying amount of such property. Such carrying amount would be adjusted, if necessary, to estimated fair values to reflect impairment in the value of the asset.

Mortgages and Loans Payable—We estimate the fair value of our debt by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at rates currently offered for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities by our lenders using Level 3 inputs. The discount rate used approximates current lending rates for loans or groups of loans with similar maturities and credit quality, assuming the debt is outstanding through maturity and considering the debt’s collateral (if applicable). We have utilized market information, as available, or present value techniques to estimate the amounts required to be disclosed.

The following is a summary of discount rates and borrowings as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 (dollars in thousands):

	September 30, 2016			December 31, 2015

⁽¹⁾  Recorded value does not include deferred financing costs of $4.8 million and $1.4 million as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

Derivative Instruments—In July 2016, we entered into interest rate swap agreements with a notional amount of $243 million that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These interest rate swaps effectively fix the LIBOR rate on the first tranche of $121.5 million and second tranche of $121.5 million of our unsecured term loan facility (the “Term Loans”) to a fixed rate of interest of 2.24% through July 2019 and 2.3075% through June 2020, respectively. These swaps qualify and have been designated as cash flow hedges.

As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we were also party to two interest rate swap agreements with a total notional amount of $15.8 million and $16.1 million, respectively. They were assumed as part of two property acquisitions, and are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The interest rate swap agreements, in effect, fix the variable interest of two of our secured variable-rate mortgage notes at an annual interest rate of 6.0% through July 2018. These swaps have not been designated as cash flow hedges.

The fair values of the interest rate swap agreements as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, were based on the estimated amounts we would receive or pay to terminate the contracts at the reporting date and were determined using interest rate pricing models and interest rate related observable inputs. Although we determined that the significant inputs used to value our derivatives fell within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with our counterparties and our own credit risk utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by us and our counterparties. However, as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we have assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of our derivative positions and have determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives. As a result, we have determined that our derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

We record derivative assets in Other Assets, Net and derivative liabilities in Accounts Payable and Other Liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. The fair value measurements of our financial liability and asset as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, are as follows (in thousands):

4. INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURE

On March 22, 2016, we entered into a joint venture (the “Joint Venture”) through our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, PE OP II Value Added Grocery, LLC (“REIT Member”) with a limited partnership (“Investor Member”) affiliated with TPG Real Estate, the real estate platform of the global private investment firm TPG, and with PECO Value Added Grocery Manager, LLC (“PECO Member”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of our Phillips Edison sponsor, and an affiliate of our advisor and property manager, Phillips Edison & Company Ltd. (“Property Manager”). REIT Member owns a 20% initial equity interest and Investor Member owns an 80% initial equity interest in the Joint Venture. REIT Member and Investor Member may contribute up to $50 million and $200 million of equity, respectively, to the Joint Venture.

PECO Member will manage and conduct the day-to-day operations and affairs of the Joint Venture. REIT Member has customary approval rights in respect to major decisions, but does not have the right to cause or prohibit various material transactions. The Joint Venture’s income, losses, and distributions will generally be allocated based on the members’ respective ownership interests. Therefore, we account for the joint venture under the equity method. Distributions of net cash are anticipated to be made on a monthly basis, as appropriate. Additional capital contributions in proportion to the members’ respective capital interests in the Joint Venture may be required.

In addition, REIT Member entered into a Contribution Agreement with Investor Member and the Joint Venture (the “Contribution Agreement”), pursuant to which REIT Member contributed to the Joint Venture its ownership interests in six grocery-anchored shopping center properties. The contributed properties were valued at approximately $94.3 million. The Joint Venture distributed cash of $87.4 million to REIT Member, which was net of REIT Member’s initial investment of $6.9 million. Due to our 20% interest in the Joint Venture, the contribution of the six properties is considered a partial sale. As a result, we deferred 20% of the gain from the contribution and recognized an immediate net gain of $3.3 million from this transaction. As of September 30, 2016, we have contributed $9.3 million of the $50 million commitment.

Subsequent to September 30, 2016, the Joint Venture acquired two additional shopping centers, bringing their property total to nine. We also contributed additional $1.4 million to the Joint Venture for their upcoming subsequent acquisitions.

5. REAL ESTATE ACQUISITIONS

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we acquired 19 grocery-anchored shopping centers and additional real estate adjacent to a previously acquired grocery-anchored shopping center for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $406.7 million, including six acquisitions with $54.5 million of assumed debt with a fair value of $58.0 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we acquired 19 grocery-anchored shopping centers and additional real estate adjacent to a previously acquired grocery-anchored shopping center for an aggregate purchase price of $390.2 million, including $41.0 million of assumed debt with a fair value of $42.1 million. The following tables present certain additional information regarding our acquisitions of properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, we allocated the purchase price of acquisitions to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as follows (in thousands):

6. MORTGAGES AND LOANS PAYABLE

Our credit agreement provides access to an unsecured revolving credit facility and an unsecured term loan facility (the “Term Loans”). As of September 30, 2016, the capacity on our revolving credit facility was $350 million, with a current interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.3%. The revolving credit facility matures in January 2018 with additional options to extend the maturity to January 2019. The Term Loans include two tranches with an interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.3%. The first tranche of the Term Loans has a maximum principal amount of $185 million and matures in July 2019, with options to extend the maturity to June 2021. The second tranche of the Term Loans has a maximum principal amount of $185 million and matures in June 2020, with an option to extend the maturity to June 2021. The Operating Partnership borrowed $121.5 million under each tranche on the closing date of the first amendment. A maturity date extension for the first or second tranche of term loans requires the payment of an extension fee of 0.15% of the then-outstanding principal amount of the corresponding tranche.

As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the weighted-average interest rate for all of our mortgages and loans payable was 2.8% and 5.6%, respectively.

The following is a summary of our debt obligations as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 (in thousands):

	September 30, 2016			December 31, 2015
Unsecured term loans - fixed-rate(1)	$	243,000		$	—
Unsecured revolving credit facility - variable-rate (2)	56,000			—

Deferred financing costs, net(6)	(4,776		)	(1,415		)
Total	$	420,735		$	81,305

⁽¹⁾  As of September 30, 2016, the interest rate on $243 million outstanding under our Term Loans was, effectively, fixed at various interest rates by two interest rate swap agreements with maturities ranging from July 2019 to June 2020 (see Notes 3 and 8).

⁽²⁾  The gross borrowings under our revolving credit facility were $448.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The gross payments under our revolving credit facility were $392.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

⁽³⁾  Due to the non-recourse nature of our fixed-rate mortgages, the assets and liabilities of the properties securing such mortgages are neither available to pay the debts of the consolidated property-holding limited liability companies nor do they constitute obligations of such consolidated limited liability companies as of September 30, 2016. One of our mortgages has a limited exception which represents a potential $1.0 million obligation in the event of default.

⁽⁴⁾  As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the interest rates on $15.8 million and $16.1 million, respectively, outstanding under two of our variable-rate mortgage notes payable were, in effect, fixed at 6.0% by two interest rate swap agreements, which expire in July 2018 (see Notes 3 and 8).

⁽⁵⁾  Net of accumulated amortization of $1.3 million and $0.7 million as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

11

⁽⁶⁾  Net of accumulated amortization of $0.9 million and $0.2 million as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. Deferred financing costs related to the revolving credit facility were $2.2 million and $1.7 million, as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, which is net of accumulated amortization of $1.8 million and $1.1 million, respectively, and are recorded in Other Assets, Net.

7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation

In the ordinary course of business, we may become subject to litigation or claims. There are no material legal proceedings pending, or known to be contemplated, against us.

Environmental Matters

In connection with the ownership and operation of real estate, we may be potentially liable for costs and damages related to environmental matters. We record liabilities as they arise related to environmental obligations. We have not been notified by any governmental authority of any material non-compliance, liability or other claim, nor are we aware of any other environmental condition that we believe will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Operating Lease

We lease land under a long-term lease at one property, which was acquired in 2016. Total rental expense for the lease was $91,035 and $151,725 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. Minimum rental commitments remaining under the noncancelable terms of the lease as of September 30, 2016, are as follows: (i) 2016, $91,035; (ii) 2017, $364,140; (iii) 2018, $364,140; (iv) 2019, $364,140; and (v) 2020, $364,140.

8. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

We are exposed to certain risks arising from both our business operations and economic conditions. We principally manage our exposure to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of our core business activities. We manage economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of our debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, we enter into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. Our derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of our known or expected cash receipts and our known or expected cash payments principally related to our investments and borrowings.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

Our objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, we primarily use interest rate swaps as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for our making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. During the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with certain variable-rate debt. The ineffective portion, if any, of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. 

As of September 30, 2016, we had two interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $243 million that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk. Amounts reported in AOCI related to these derivatives will be reclassified to Interest Expense, Net as interest payments are made on the variable-rate debt. During the next 12 months, we estimate that an additional $0.1 million will be reclassified from Other Comprehensive Income as an increase to Interest Expense, Net. We had no derivatives outstanding during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and are used to manage our exposure to interest rate movements and other identified risks, but do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements to be classified as hedging instruments. Changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments, as well as any payments, are recorded directly in Other (Expense) Income, Net,

12

and resulted in a loss of $43,700 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. Changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments, as well as any payments, resulted in a gain of $0.1 million for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016. We had no derivatives outstanding during the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015.

Tabular Disclosure of the Effect of Derivative Instruments on AOCI and the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The table below presents the changes in AOCI and the effect of our derivative financial instruments on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 (in thousands):

Balance in AOCI as of January 1, 2016			$	—
Amount of gain recognized in other comprehensive income on derivative	$	1,012
Amount of loss reclassified from AOCI into interest expense	89
Current-period other comprehensive income			1,101
Balance in AOCI as of September 30, 2016			$	1,101

Credit Risk-Related Contingent Features

We have agreements with our derivative counterparties that contain provisions where, if we either default or are capable of being declared in default on any of our indebtedness, we could also be declared to be in default on our derivative obligations. As of September 30, 2016, the fair value of our derivatives excluded any adjustment for nonperformance risk related to this agreement. As of September 30, 2016, we have not posted any collateral related to these agreements.

9. EQUITY

On April 14, 2016, our board of directors established an estimated value per share of our common stock of $22.50 based substantially on the estimated market value of our portfolio of real estate properties as of March 31, 2016. We engaged a third party valuation firm to provide a calculation of the range in estimated value per share of our common stock as of March 31, 2016, which reflected certain balance sheet assets and liabilities as of that date.

Distribution Reinvestment Plan—We have adopted the DRIP which allows stockholders to invest distributions in additional shares of our common stock. We continue to offer up to approximately 55.6 million shares of our common stock under the DRIP. Initially, the purchase price per share under the DRIP was $23.75. In accordance with the DRIP, because we established an estimated value per share on April 14, 2016, subsequent to that date, participants acquired and continue to acquire shares of common stock through the DRIP at a price of $22.50 per share.

Share Repurchase Program (“SRP”)—Our SRP provides a limited opportunity for stockholders to have shares of common stock repurchased, subject to certain restrictions and limitations. Initially, shares were repurchased at a price equal to or at a discount from the stockholder’s original purchase prices paid for the shares being repurchased. Effective April 14, 2016, the repurchase price per share for all stockholders is equal to the estimated value per share of $22.50.

Effective May 15, 2016, under our amended SRP, the maximum amount of common stock that we may repurchase at the stockholder’s election during any calendar year is limited, among other things, to 5% of the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the prior calendar year. The maximum amount is reduced each reporting period by the current year share repurchases to date. In addition, the cash available for repurchases on any particular date is generally limited to the proceeds from the DRIP during the preceding four fiscal quarters, less amounts already used for repurchases since the beginning of that period.

Class B Units—The Operating Partnership issues limited partnership units that are designated as Class B units for asset management services provided by PE-NTR II. The vesting of the Class B units is contingent upon a market condition and service condition. We had outstanding unvested Class B units of 391,349 and 231,809 as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

13

10. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS considers the effect of any potentially dilutive share equivalents for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. In the third quarter of 2016, approximately 4,400 shares of restricted stock were granted under our 2013 Independent Director Stock Plan and are potentially dilutive. The securities were included in our diluted EPS calculation but did not have a material impact on EPS for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. Class B units are potentially dilutive securities as they contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents.

There were 391,349 and 142,714 Class B units of the Operating Partnership outstanding as of September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The vesting of the Class B units is contingent upon a market condition and service condition. Since the satisfaction of both conditions was not probable as of September 30, 2016 and 2015, the Class B units remained unvested and thus were not included in the diluted net income per share computations.

11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Economic Dependency—We are dependent on PE-NTR II, the Property Manager, and their respective affiliates for certain services that are essential to us, including asset acquisition and disposition decisions, asset management, operating and leasing of our properties, and other general and administrative responsibilities. In the event that PE-NTR II, the Property Manager, and/or their respective affiliates are unable to provide such services, we would be required to find alternative service providers, which could result in higher costs and expenses.

Advisory Agreement—Pursuant to the PE-NTR II Agreement, PE-NTR II is entitled to specified fees for certain services, including managing our day-to-day activities and implementing our investment strategy. PE-NTR II manages our day-to-day affairs and our portfolio of real estate investments subject to the board’s supervision. Expenses are reimbursed to PE-NTR II based on amounts incurred on our behalf.

Prior to December 3, 2015, our advisor was American Realty Capital PECO II Advisors, LLC (“ARC”). On November 2, 2015, the conflicts committee of our board of directors made the decision to terminate the former advisory agreement with ARC, effective as of December 3, 2015. Pursuant to the former advisory agreement, ARC was entitled to specified fees for certain services, including managing our day-to-day activities and implementing our investment strategy. ARC had entered into a sub-advisory agreement with PE-NTR II, who managed our day-to-day affairs and our portfolio of real estate investments on behalf of ARC, subject to the board’s supervision and with the condition that certain major decisions required the consent of both ARC and PE-NTR II. The expenses reimbursed to ARC and PE-NTR II were reimbursed in proportion to the amount of expenses incurred on our behalf by ARC and PE-NTR II, respectively.

Organization and Offering Costs—Under the terms of the former advisory agreement, we were to reimburse, on a monthly basis, ARC, PE-NTR II, or their respective affiliates for cumulative organization and offering costs and future organization and offering costs they incurred on our behalf, but only to the extent that the reimbursement would not exceed 2% of gross proceeds raised in all primary offerings measured at the completion of such primary offering.

Summarized below are the cumulative organization and offering costs charged by and the cumulative costs reimbursed to ARC, PE-NTR II and their affiliates as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, and any related amounts reimbursable to us as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 (in thousands):

	September 30, 2016		December 31, 2015
Total organization and offering costs charged	$	18,081	$	18,081
Less: Total organization and offering costs reimbursed	18,081		19,020
Total organization and offering costs receivable	$	—	$	(939	)

Acquisition Fee—We paid ARC under the former advisory agreement, and we pay PE-NTR II under the PE-NTR II Agreement, an acquisition fee related to services provided in connection with the selection and purchase or origination of real estate and real estate-related investments. The acquisition fee is equal to 1% of the contract purchase price of each property we acquire, including acquisition or origination expenses and any debt attributable to such investments.

Acquisition Expenses—We reimburse PE-NTR II for direct expenses incurred related to selecting, evaluating, and acquiring assets on our behalf. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, we reimbursed PE-NTR II for personnel costs related to due diligence services for assets we acquired during the period.

Asset Management Subordinated Participation—Within 60 days after the end of each calendar quarter (subject to the approval of our board of directors), we will pay an asset management subordinated participation partially by issuing a number of restricted operating partnership units designated as Class B Units to PE-NTR II and ARC equal to: (i) 0.25% multiplied by (a)

14

prior to the date on which we calculated an estimated net asset value (“NAV”) per share, the cost of assets and (b) on and after the date on which we calculated an estimated NAV per share, the lower of the cost of assets and the applicable quarterly NAV divided by (ii) (a) prior to the date on which we calculated an estimated NAV per share, the value of one share of common stock as of the last day of such calendar quarter, which was equal to $22.50 (the primary offering price minus selling commissions and dealer manager fees) and (b) on and after the date on which we calculated an estimated NAV per share, the per share NAV. Our board of directors established an estimated NAV per share of $22.50 on April 14, 2016.

PE-NTR II and ARC are entitled to receive distributions on the Class B units at the same rate as distributions are paid to common stockholders. Such distributions are in addition to the incentive compensation that PE-NTR II, ARC, and their affiliates may receive from us. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Operating Partnership issued 159,540 Class B units to PE-NTR II and ARC under the advisory agreement for the asset management services performed during the period from October 1, 2015 to June 30, 2016. These Class B units will not vest until an economic hurdle has been met. PE-NTR II or one of its affiliates must continue to provide advisory services through the date that such economic hurdle is met. The economic hurdle will be met when the value of the Operating Partnership’s assets plus all distributions made equal or exceed the total amount of capital contributed by investors plus a 6.0% cumulative, pre-tax, non-compounded annual return thereon.

Under the PE-NTR II Agreement, beginning in January 2016, the asset management fee remained at 1% of the cost of our assets, but is paid 80% in cash and 20% in Class B units of the Operating Partnership instead of entirely in Class B units. The cash portion of the asset management fee is paid on a monthly basis in arrears at the rate of 0.06667% multiplied by the cost of our assets as of the last day of the preceding monthly period. Under the first amendment to the Operating Partnership’s amended and restated agreement of limited partnership, the Class B units portion of the asset management fee was based on the rate of 0.05% multiplied by the cost of our assets. On April 14, 2016, we established an estimated NAV and the calculation of the Class B units portion of the asset management fee was changed to be based on the rate of 0.05% multiplied by the lower of the cost of our assets and our estimated NAV. The Class B units continue to be issued quarterly in arrears and remain subject to existing forfeiture provisions.

Financing Coordination Fee—We paid PE-NTR II and ARC under the former advisory agreement a financing fee equal to 0.75% of all amounts made available under any loan or line of credit in connection with the origination or refinancing of any debt that we obtain and use to finance properties or other permitted investments. As of January 1, 2016, we no longer pay this fee.

Disposition Fee—We pay PE-NTR II under the PE-NTR II Agreement, and we paid ARC under the former advisory agreement, for substantial assistance in connection with the sale of properties or other investments up to the lesser of: (i) 2% of the contract sales price of each property or other investment sold; or (ii) one-half of the total brokerage commissions paid if a non-affiliated broker is also involved in the sale, provided that total real estate commissions paid (to PE-NTR II and others) in connection with the sale may not exceed the lesser of a competitive real estate commission or 6% of the contract sales price. The conflicts committee of our board of directors will determine whether PE-NTR II has provided substantial assistance to us in connection with the sale of an asset. Substantial assistance in connection with the sale of a property includes preparation of an investment package for the property (including an investment analysis, rent rolls, tenant information regarding credit, a property title report, an environmental report, a structural report and exhibits) or such other substantial services performed by PE-NTR II in connection with a sale.

General and Administrative Expenses—As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we owed PE-NTR II and their affiliates $35,000 and $18,000, respectively, for general and administrative expenses paid on our behalf.

Summarized below are the fees earned by and the expenses reimbursable to ARC and PE-NTR II, except for organization and offering costs and unpaid general and administrative expenses, which we disclose above, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, and any related amounts unpaid as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 (in thousands):

Property Manager—All of our real properties are managed and leased by the Property Manager. The Property Manager is wholly owned by our Phillips Edison sponsor. The Property Manager also manages real properties owned by Phillips Edison affiliates or other third parties.

Property Management Fee—We pay to the Property Manager a monthly property management fee of 4% of the monthly gross cash receipts from the properties it manages.

Leasing Commissions—In addition to the property management fee, if the Property Manager provides leasing services with respect to a property, we pay the Property Manager leasing fees in an amount equal to the leasing fees charged by unaffiliated persons rendering comparable services based on national market rates. The Property Manager shall be paid a leasing fee in connection with a tenant’s exercise of an option to extend an existing lease, and the leasing fees payable to the Property Manager may be increased by up to 50% in the event that the Property Manager engages a co-broker to lease a particular vacancy.

Construction Management Fee—If we engage the Property Manager to provide construction management services with respect to a particular property, we pay a construction management fee in an amount that is usual and customary for comparable services rendered to similar projects in the geographic market of the property.

Expenses and Reimbursements—The Property Manager hires, directs, and establishes policies for employees who have direct responsibility for the operations of each real property it manages, which may include, but is not limited to, on-site managers and building and maintenance personnel. Certain employees of the Property Manager may be employed on a part-time basis and may also be employed by PE-NTR II or certain of its affiliates. The Property Manager also directs the purchase of equipment and supplies and supervises all maintenance activity. We reimburse the costs and expenses incurred by the Property Manager on our behalf, including employee compensation, legal, travel and other out-of-pocket expenses that are directly related to the management of specific properties and corporate matters, as well as fees and expenses of third-party accountants.

Dealer Manager—The dealer manager for our initial public offering was Realty Capital Securities, LLC (the “Dealer Manager”). The Dealer Manager provided certain sales, promotional and marketing services in connection with the distribution of the shares of common stock offered under our offering. Excluding shares sold pursuant to the “friends and family” program, the Dealer Manager was generally paid a sales commission equal to 7% of the gross proceeds from the sale of shares of the common stock sold in the primary offering and a dealer manager fee equal to 3% of the gross proceeds from the sale of shares of the common stock sold in the primary offering.

The Dealer Manager typically reallowed 100% of the selling commissions and a portion of the dealer manager fee to participating broker-dealers. Alternatively, a participating broker-dealer could elect to receive a commission based upon the proceeds from the sale of shares by such participating broker-dealer, with a portion of such fee being paid at the time of such sale and the remaining amounts paid on each anniversary of the closing of such sale up to and including the fifth anniversary of the closing of such sale, in which event, a portion of the dealer manager fee could be reallowed such that the combined selling commission and dealer manager fee did not exceed 10% of the gross proceeds of our primary offering. The dealer manager agreement terminated upon termination of the initial public offering.

Prior to February 2016, we utilized transfer agent services provided by an affiliate of the Dealer Manager. Fees incurred from this transfer agent represented amounts paid by PE-NTR II to the affiliate of the Dealer Manager for such services. We reimbursed PE-NTR II for these fees through the payment of organization and offering costs. The transfer agent ceased services and the agreement was terminated in connection with the bankruptcy of the transfer agent and its parent company.

The following table details total selling commissions, dealer manager fees, and service fees paid to the Dealer Manager and its affiliate related to the sale of common stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 and any related amounts unpaid, which are included as a component of total unpaid organization and offering costs, as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 (in thousands):

Share Purchases by PE-NTR II and AR Capital Sponsor—PE-NTR II made an initial investment in us through the purchase of 8,888 shares of our common stock and may not sell any of these shares while serving as our advisor. AR Capital LLC, which is under common control with ARC, also purchased 17,778 shares of our common stock. PE-NTR II and AR Capital LLC purchased shares at a purchase price of $22.50 per share, reflecting no dealer manager fee or selling commissions paid on such shares.

12. OPERATING LEASES

The terms and expirations of our operating leases with our tenants vary. The lease agreements frequently contain options to extend the terms of leases and other terms and conditions as negotiated. We retain substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership of the real estate assets leased to tenants.

Approximate future rentals to be received under non-cancelable operating leases in effect at September 30, 2016, assuming no new or renegotiated leases or option extensions on lease agreements, are as follows (in thousands):

Year	Amount
October 1 to December 31, 2016	$	23,301
2017	93,793
2018	86,555
2019	75,108
2020	64,121
2021 and thereafter	268,886
Total	$	611,764

No single tenant comprised 10% or more of our aggregate annualized base rent as of September 30, 2016.

13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Distributions to Stockholders

Distributions equal to a daily amount of $0.0044398907 per share of common stock outstanding were paid subsequent to September 30, 2016, to the stockholders of record from September 1, 2016 through October 31, 2016 as follows (in thousands):

Distribution Period	Date Distribution Paid	Gross Amount of Distribution Paid		Distribution Reinvested through the DRIP		Net Cash Distribution

Overview

Organization

Phillips Edison Grocery Center REIT II, Inc. is a public non-traded real estate investment trust (REIT) that invests in retail real estate properties. Our primary focus is on necessity-anchored neighborhood and community shopping centers that meet the day-to-day needs of residents in the surrounding trade areas.

As of September 30, 2016, we wholly-owned fee simple interests in 70 real estate properties acquired from third parties unaffiliated with us or PE-NTR II. In addition, we own a 20% equity interest in a joint venture that owns seven real estate properties.

⁽¹⁾  We calculate ABR as monthly contractual rent as of September 30, 2016, multiplied by 12 months.

⁽²⁾  Subsequent to September 30, 2016, we renewed 13 of the 52 leases expiring in 2016, which accounts for total ABR of $0.8 million.

Portfolio Tenancy

Prior to the acquisition of a property, we assess the suitability of the grocery-anchor tenant and other tenants in light of our investment objectives, namely, preserving capital and providing stable cash flows for distributions. Generally, we assess the strength of the tenant by consideration of company factors, such as its financial strength and market share in the geographic area of the shopping center, as well as location-specific factors, such as the store’s sales, local competition, and demographics. When assessing the tenancy of the non-anchor space at the shopping center, we consider the tenant mix at each shopping center in light of our portfolio, the proportion of national and national franchise tenants, the creditworthiness of specific tenants, and the timing of lease expirations. When evaluating non-national tenancy, we attempt to obtain credit enhancements to leases, which typically come in the form of deposits and/or guarantees from one or more individuals.

Results of Operations

The Same-Center column in the tables below includes the 20 properties that were owned and operational prior to January 1, 2015. The Non-Same-Center column includes properties that were acquired after December 31, 2014, in addition to corporate-level income and expenses. In this section, we primarily explain fluctuations in activity shown in the Same-Center column as well as any notable fluctuations in the Non-Same-Center column related to corporate-level activity. We owned 70 properties as of September 30, 2016, and 31 properties as of September 30, 2015. This excludes properties owned by our unconsolidated joint venture (see Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements). Unless otherwise discussed below, year-over-year comparative differences for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, are almost entirely attributable to the number of properties owned and the length of ownership of these properties.

Net income (loss) per share - basic and diluted	$	0.00		$	(0.05	)	$	0.05

Total revenues— Of the $17.6 million increase in total revenues, $17.1 million was related to the acquisition of 56 properties in 2015 and 2016. The remaining variance was the result of an increase in revenue among same-center properties, primarily due to a $0.5 million increase in rental income, which was driven by a $0.28 increase in same-center minimum rent per square foot and a 1.8% increase in same-center occupancy since September 30, 2015.

General and administrative expenses—The $3.8 million increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to the $2.6 million of cash asset management fees as a result of the change to our advisory fee structure as of January 1, 2016. Previously, the asset management fee had been deferred via the issuance of Class B units, which did not result in the recognition of expense under GAAP. The asset management fee percentage did not increase; however, 80% is now paid through cash and therefore recognized as expense under GAAP, with 20% remaining as Class B units. We also had increases of $0.3 million in transfer agent expense, $0.2 million in audit, accounting, and consulting fees, and $0.2 million in investor relations and travel expenses.

Interest expense, net— Of the $2.2 million increase in interest expense, net, $1.7 million is related to higher borrowings on the revolving credit facility and the new term loans that we entered into in June 2016. The remaining $0.5 million increase is related to mortgage loans assumed in connection with certain acquisitions in 2015 and 2016.

Total revenues—Of the $56.2 million increase in total revenues, $54.0 million was related to the acquisition of 56 properties in 2015 and 2016. The remaining variance was the result of an increase in revenue among same-center properties, primarily due to a $1.3 million increase in rental income, which was driven by a $0.28 increase in same-center minimum rent per square foot and a 1.8% increase in same-center occupancy since September 30, 2015.

Real estate tax expenses—Of the $8.8 million increase in real estate tax expenses, $8.2 million was related to the acquisition of 56 properties in 2015 and 2016. The remaining $0.6 million was primarily the result of changes in assessed property values and increased property tax rates at certain properties following acquisition.

General and administrative expenses—The $11.5 million increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to $7.3 million of cash asset management fees as a result of the change to our advisory fee structure as of January 1, 2016 as discussed above. We also had increases of $1.1 million in transfer agent expense, $0.7 million in investor relations and travel expense, and $2.4 million in professional fees that were primarily due to third-party valuation work for determination of our per share estimated value, higher costs for investor relations custodial fees, costs associated with the annual stockholders meeting held in June 2016, and certain corporate-level costs associated with managing a larger portfolio.

Interest expense, net— Of the $4.3 million increase in interest expense, net, $2.7 million of the increase is related to higher borrowings on the revolving credit facility and the new term loans that we entered into in June 2016. The remaining $1.6 million increase is related to mortgage loans assumed in connection with certain acquisitions in 2015 and 2016.

Gain on contribution of properties to unconsolidated joint venture—The $3.3 million increase is solely due to the gain on the contributions of six properties to the Joint Venture in March 2016.

24

The average rent per square foot and cost of executing leases fluctuates based on the tenant mix, size of the space, and lease term. Leases with national and regional tenants generally require a higher cost per square foot than those with local tenants. However, such tenants will also pay a higher rent per square foot for a longer term. As we continue to attract more of these national and regional tenants, our costs to lease may increase.

Non-GAAP Measures

Same-Center Net Operating Income

We present Same-Center Net Operating Income (“Same-Center NOI”) as a supplemental measure of our performance. We define Net Operating Income (“NOI”) as total operating revenues less property operating expenses, real estate taxes, and non-cash revenue items. Same-Center NOI represents the NOI for the 20 properties that were operational for the entire portion of both comparable reporting periods and that were not acquired during or subsequent to the comparable reporting periods. The six properties that were contributed to the unconsolidated joint venture in March are not included in the Same-Center presentation. We believe that NOI and Same-Center NOI provide useful information to our investors about our financial and operating performance because each provides a performance measure of the revenues and expenses directly involved in owning and operating real estate assets and provides a perspective not immediately apparent from net income. Because Same-Center NOI excludes the change in NOI from properties acquired after December 31, 2014, it highlights operating trends such as occupancy levels, rental rates, and operating costs on properties that were operational for both comparable periods. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating Same-Center NOI, and accordingly, our Same-Center NOI may not be comparable to other REITs.

Same-Center NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance since it does not reflect the operations of our entire portfolio, nor does it reflect the impact of general and administrative expenses, acquisition expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, other income, or the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties that could materially impact our results from operations.

The table below is a comparison of the Same-Center NOI for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, to the same periods ended September 30, 2015 (in thousands):

	Three months ended September 30,									Nine months ended September 30,

⁽¹⁾  Excludes straight-line rental income and net amortization of above- and below-market leases.

Same-Center NOI increased $1.8 million, or 11.1%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as compared to the same period in 2015. This positive growth was primarily due to a $0.28 increase in minimum rent per square foot, an improvement in occupancy of 1.8%, and an improvement in the tenant recovery income resulting from the combination of increases in real estate tax expense and our recovery rate.

Funds from Operations and Modified Funds from Operations

Funds from operations (“FFO”) is a non-GAAP performance financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. We use FFO as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) to be net income (loss), computed in accordance with GAAP and gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable real estate property (including deemed sales and settlements of pre-existing relationships), plus depreciation and amortization on real estate assets and impairment charges, and after related adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures and noncontrolling interests. We believe that FFO is helpful to our investors and our management as a measure of operating performance because it, when compared year to year, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, development activities, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs, which are not immediately apparent from net income.

Since the definition of FFO was promulgated by NAREIT, GAAP has expanded to include several new accounting pronouncements, such that management and many investors and analysts have considered the presentation of FFO alone to be insufficient. Accordingly, in addition to FFO, we use modified funds from operations (“MFFO”), which excludes from FFO the following items:

• acquisition fees and expenses;

• straight-line rent amounts, both income and expense;

• amortization of above- or below-market intangible lease assets and liabilities;

• amortization of discounts and premiums on debt investments;

• gains or losses from the early extinguishment of debt;

• gains or losses on the extinguishment of derivatives, except where the trading of such instruments is a fundamental attribute of our operations;

• gains or losses related to fair-value adjustments for derivatives not qualifying for hedge accounting;

• gains or losses related to consolidation from, or deconsolidation to, equity accounting;

• gains or losses related to contingent purchase price adjustments; and

• adjustments related to the above items for unconsolidated entities in the application of equity accounting.

We believe that MFFO is helpful in assisting management and investors with the assessment of the sustainability of operating performance in future periods and, in particular, after our acquisition stage is complete, because MFFO excludes acquisition expenses that affect operations only in the period in which the property is acquired. Thus, MFFO provides helpful information relevant to evaluating our operating performance in periods in which there is no acquisition activity.

26

Many of the adjustments in arriving at MFFO are not applicable to us. Nevertheless, as explained below, management’s evaluation of our operating performance may also exclude items considered in the calculation of MFFO based on the following economic considerations.

• Adjustments for straight-line rents and amortization of discounts and premiums on debt investments—GAAP requires rental receipts and discounts and premiums on debt investments to be recognized using various systematic methodologies. This may result in income recognition that could be significantly different than underlying contract terms. By adjusting for these items, MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the realized economic impact of lease terms and debt investments and aligns results with management’s analysis of operating performance. The adjustment to MFFO for straight-line rents, in particular, is made to reflect rent and lease payments from a GAAP accrual basis to a cash basis.

• Adjustments for amortization of above- or below-market intangible lease assets—Similar to depreciation and amortization of other real estate-related assets that are excluded from FFO, GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of intangibles diminishes ratably over the lease term and should be recognized in revenue. Since real estate values and market lease rates in the aggregate have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, and the intangible value is not adjusted to reflect these changes, management believes that by excluding these charges, MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the performance of the real estate.

• Gains or losses related to fair-value adjustments for derivatives not qualifying for hedge accounting—This item relates to a fair value adjustment, which is based on the impact of current market fluctuations and underlying assessments of general market conditions and specific performance of the holding, which may not be directly attributable to current operating performance. As these gains or losses relate to underlying long-term assets and liabilities, management believes MFFO provides useful supplemental information by focusing on the changes in core operating fundamentals rather than changes that may reflect anticipated, but unknown, gains or losses.

• Adjustment for gains or losses related to early extinguishment of derivatives and debt instruments—These adjustments are not related to continuing operations. By excluding these items, management believes that MFFO provides supplemental information related to sustainable operations that will be more comparable between other reporting periods and to other real estate operators.

Neither FFO nor MFFO should be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or income (loss) from continuing operations under GAAP, nor as an indication of our liquidity, nor is either of these measures indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to fund distributions. MFFO may not be a useful measure of the impact of long-term operating performance on value if we do not continue to operate our business plan in the manner currently contemplated.

Accordingly, FFO and MFFO should be reviewed in connection with other GAAP measurements. FFO and MFFO should not be viewed as more prominent measures of performance than our net income or cash flows from operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our FFO and MFFO as presented may not be comparable to amounts calculated by other REITs.

The following section presents our calculation of FFO and MFFO and provides additional information related to our operations. As a result of the timing of the commencement of our initial public offering and our active real estate operations, FFO and MFFO are not relevant to a discussion comparing operations for the periods presented. We expect revenues and expenses to increase in future periods as we acquire additional investments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

Our principal cash demands are for real estate and real estate-related investments, capital expenditures including redevelopment projects, operating expenses, repurchases of common stock, distributions to stockholders, and principal and interest on our outstanding indebtedness. Generally, we expect cash needed for items other than acquisitions and acquisition expenses to be generated from operating cash flows, proceeds from our distribution reinvestment plan (the “DRIP”), and proceeds from debt financings, including borrowings under our unsecured credit facility, as our primary sources of immediate and long-term liquidity. As of March 31, 2016, we had invested all of the proceeds from our initial public offering in real estate properties. We continue to acquire additional investments to complete our portfolio.

As of September 30, 2016, we had cash and cash equivalents of $10.0 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we had a net cash decrease of $7.3 million, primarily as a result of real estate acquisitions, offset by an increase in cash due to borrowings on the term loans.

Operating Activities

Our net cash provided by operating activities consists primarily of cash inflows from tenant rental and recovery payments and cash outflows for property operating expenses, real estate taxes, general and administrative expenses, acquisition expenses, and interest payments.

Our cash flows from operating activities were $34.7 million as of September 30, 2016, compared to $14.0 million from the same period in 2015, primarily due to an increase in the number of properties owned and the length of ownership of those properties. Operating cash flows are expected to continue to increase as additional properties are added to our portfolio.

28

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities is impacted by the nature, timing, and extent of improvements to and acquisition of real estate and real estate-related assets.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we had a total cash outlay of $348.6 million related to acquisition of 19 grocery-anchored shopping centers and additional real estate adjacent to a previously acquired grocery-anchored shopping center. During the same period in 2015, we acquired 19 grocery-anchored shopping centers and additional real estate adjacent to a previously acquired grocery-anchored shopping center for a total cash investment of $346.5 million, resulting in an increase in our cash paid for acquisitions. We continue to acquire additional investments to complete our portfolio.

In March 2016, we entered into a joint venture agreement under which we may contribute up to $50 million of equity. Our initial contribution was $6.9 million as we had contributed six properties with a fair value of approximately $94.3 million and received a distribution of $87.4 million in cash. In the three months ended September 30, 2016, we contributed an additional $2.6 million in cash to the joint venture to acquire additional assets.

Financing Activities

Our net cash provided by financing activities is impacted by the payment of distributions, borrowings during the period, and principal and other payments associated with our outstanding debt. As our debt obligations mature, we intend to refinance the remaining balance, if possible, or pay off the balances at maturity using proceeds from operations and/or corporate-level debt.

As of September 30, 2016, our debt to total enterprise value was 28.4%. Debt to total enterprise value is calculated as net debt (total debt, excluding below-market debt adjustments and deferred financing costs, less cash and cash equivalents) as a percentage of enterprise value (equity value, calculated as total common shares outstanding multiplied by the estimated value per share of $22.50, plus net debt).

We have access to a revolving credit facility with a capacity of up to $350 million with a current interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.30%. As of September 30, 2016, $200.7 million was available for borrowing under the revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility matures in June 2018, with additional options to extend to June 2019. Our credit facility may be expanded up to $700 million, from which we may draw funds to pay certain long-term debt obligations as they mature, acquire properties, or pay operating costs and expenses.

We also have access to the term loan facility (the “Term Loans”), which includes two term loan tranches with an interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.30%. As of September 30, 2016, $127.0 million was available to borrow under the Term Loans. The first tranche of term loans matures in July 2019, with options to extend to June 2021. The second tranche of Term Loans matures in June 2020, with an option to extend to June 2021. A maturity date extension for the first or second tranche of Term Loans requires the payment of an extension fee of 0.15% of the then outstanding principal amount of the corresponding tranche. In July 2016 we entered into interest rate swap agreements to fix the interest rate on $243 million of the Term Loans. The swaps convert the LIBOR rate on the first tranche of $121.5 million and second tranche of $121.5 million to a fixed interest rate of 2.24% through July 2019 and 2.3075% through June 2020, respectively.

We offer a share repurchase program (“SRP”) that provides a limited opportunity for stockholders to have shares of common stock repurchased, subject to certain restrictions and limitations. Effective as of May 15, 2016, the cash available for repurchases on any particular date is generally limited to the proceeds from the DRIP during the preceding four fiscal quarters, less amounts already used for repurchases since the beginning of that period. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we paid cash for repurchases of common stock in the amount of $18.8 million.

29

Activity related to distributions to our common stockholders for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 is as follows (in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended September 30,

Net cash provided by operating activities	34,746			14,012
FFO(1)	34,977			13,147

⁽¹⁾ See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Non-GAAP Measures - Funds from Operations and Modified Funds from Operations” for the definition of FFO, information regarding why we present FFO, as well as for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to net loss on the consolidated statements of operations.

We expect to continue paying distributions monthly unless our results of operations, our general financial condition, general economic conditions or other factors make it imprudent to do so. The timing and amount of distributions will be determined by our board and will be influenced in part by our intention to comply with REIT requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.

To maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must make aggregate annual distributions to our stockholders of at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (which is computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction or net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP). If we meet the REIT qualification requirements, we generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the income that we distribute to our stockholders each year. However, we may be subject to certain state and local taxes on our income, property or net worth, respectively, and to federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed income.

We have not established a minimum distribution level, and our charter does not require that we make distributions to our stockholders.

⁽¹⁾  Future variable-rate interest payments are based on interest rates as of September 30, 2016.

Our portfolio debt instruments and the unsecured revolving credit facility contain certain covenants and restrictions. The following is a list of certain restrictive covenants specific to the unsecured revolving credit facility that were deemed significant:

• limits the ratio of debt to total asset value, as defined, to 60% or 65% for four consecutive periods following a material acquisition, as defined within the applicable debt agreement;

• limits the ratio of secured debt to total asset value, as defined, to 40%, or 45% for four consecutive periods following a material acquisition;

• requires the fixed charge ratio, as defined, to be 1.5 or greater or 1.4 for four consecutive periods following a material acquisition;

• requires maintenance of certain minimum tangible net worth balances; and

• limits the ratio of cash dividend payments to a specified percentage of FFO that varies among the related debt agreements.

As of September 30, 2016, we were in compliance with the restrictive covenants of our outstanding debt obligations. We expect to continue to meet the requirements of our debt covenants over the short- and long-term.

Critical Accounting Policies

There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. For a summary of our critical accounting policies, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 filed with the SEC on March 3, 2016.

Newly Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements—Refer to Note 2 of our consolidated financial statements in this report for discussion of the impact of newly adopted and recently issued accounting pronouncements.

Item 3.       Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We hedge a portion of our exposure to interest rate fluctuations through the utilization of interest rate swaps in order to mitigate the risk of this exposure. We do not intend to enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes. Our hedging decisions are determined based upon the facts and circumstances existing at the time of the hedge and may differ from our currently anticipated hedging strategy. Because we use derivative financial instruments to hedge against interest rate fluctuations, we may be exposed to both credit risk and market risk. Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. If the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty will owe us, which creates credit risk for us. If the fair value of a derivative contract is negative, we will owe the counterparty and, therefore, do not have credit risk. We seek to minimize the credit risk in derivative instruments by entering into transactions with high-quality counterparties. Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of a financial instrument that results from a change in interest rates. The market risk associated with interest-rate contracts is managed by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken. 

As of September 30, 2016, we were party to two interest rate swap agreements that, in effect, fixed the variable interest rate on $15.8 million of two of our secured variable-rate mortgage notes at 6.0%. In July 2016, we entered into interest rate swap agreements to fix the interest rate on $243 million of the Term Loans. The swaps convert LIBOR on the first tranche of $121.5 million and second tranche of $121.5 million to a fixed interest rate of 2.24% through July 2019 and 2.3075% through June 2020, respectively.

As of September 30, 2016, we had not fixed the interest rate for $56 million of our unsecured variable-rate debt through derivative financial instruments, and as a result, we are subject to the potential impact of rising interest rates, which could negatively impact our profitability and cash flows. The impact on our annual results of operations of a one-percentage point increase in interest rates on the outstanding balance of our variable-rate debt at September 30, 2016, would result in approximately $0.6 million of additional interest expense. We had no other outstanding interest rate contracts as of September 30, 2016.

These amounts were determined based on the impact of hypothetical interest rates on our borrowing cost and assume no changes in our capital structure. As the information presented above includes only those exposures that exist as of September 30, 2016, it does not consider those exposures or positions that could arise after that date. Hence, the information represented herein has limited predictive value. As a result, the ultimate realized gain or loss with respect to interest rate fluctuations will depend on the exposures that arise during the period, the hedging strategies at the time, and the related interest rates.

We do not have any foreign operations, and thus we are not exposed to foreign currency fluctuations. 

Item 4.         Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2016. Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective as of September 30, 2016.

Internal Control Changes

During the quarter ended September 30, 2016, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.     OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.        Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are party to legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of our business. We are not currently involved in any legal proceedings of which the outcome is reasonably likely to have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition, nor are we aware of any such legal proceedings contemplated by governmental authorities.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The following risk factor supplements the risk factors set forth in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Risks Related to an Investment in Us

To date, we have not generated sufficient cash flow from operations to pay distributions, and, therefore, we have paid, and may continue to pay, a portion of our distributions from the net proceeds from the issuance of shares of our common stock and debt proceeds, which reduces the amount of cash we ultimately have to invest in assets, negatively impacting the value of our stockholders’ investment and is dilutive to our stockholders.

Our organizational documents permit us to pay distributions from sources other than cash flow from operations. Specifically, some or all of our distributions have been or may be paid from retained cash flow, from borrowings and from cash flow from investing activities, including the net proceeds from the sale of our assets, or from the net proceeds from the issuance of shares of our common stock. Accordingly, until such time as we are generating cash flow from operations sufficient to cover distributions, we will likely continue to pay distributions from our debt proceeds. We have not established any limit on the extent to which we may use alternate sources to pay distributions. We began declaring distributions to stockholders of record during February 2014. A portion of the distributions paid to stockholders to date have been paid from the net proceeds of the issuance of shares of our common stock, which reduced the proceeds available for other purposes.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we paid gross distributions to our common stockholders of $56.4 million, including distributions reinvested through the DRIP of $28.9 million, or 51.2%, of our distributions paid. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, our net cash provided by operating activities was $34.7 million, which represents a shortfall of $21.6 million, or 38.3%, of our distributions paid, while our FFO was $35.0 million, which represents a shortfall of $21.4 million, or 37.9%, of the distributions paid. The shortfall was funded by proceeds from our DRIP. To the extent we pay cash distributions, or a portion thereof, from sources other than cash flow from operations, we will have less capital available to invest in properties and other real estate-related assets, the book value per share may decline, and there will be no assurance that we will be able to sustain distributions at that level.

Item 2.        Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

a) We did not sell any equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

b) Not applicable.

c)Our SRP may provide a limited opportunity for stockholders to have shares of common stock repurchased, subject to certain restrictions and limitations. During the quarter ended September 30, 2016, we repurchased shares as follows (shares in thousands):

Period	Total Number of Shares Repurchased(1)	Average Price Paid per Share(2)		Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of a Publicly Announced Plan or Program(3)	Approximate Dollar Value of Shares Available That May Yet Be Repurchased Under the Program
July 2016	188	$	22.50	188	(4)
August 2016	77	22.50		77	(4)
September 2016	104	22.50		104	(4)

⁽¹⁾  All purchases of our equity securities by us in the three months ended September 30, 2016 were made pursuant to the SRP.  

⁽²⁾  Initially, the price paid under the SRP was equal to or at a discount from the stockholders’ original purchase prices paid for the shares being repurchased. On April 14, 2016, our board of directors established an estimated value per share of our common stock of $22.50. Effective as of that date, the repurchase price per share for all stockholders is equal to the estimated value per share of $22.50.

(3)We announced the commencement of the SRP on November 25, 2013, and it was subsequently amended effective May 15, 2016.

32

⁽⁴⁾  We currently limit the dollar value and number of shares that may yet be repurchased under the SRP as described below. During the three months ended September 30, 2016, we repurchased $8.3 million of common stock, which represented all repurchase requests received timely, in good order and eligible for repurchase during that period.

There are several limitations on our ability to repurchase shares under the program:

• Unless the shares are being repurchased in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability,” or “determination of incompetence,” we may not repurchase shares unless the stockholder has held the shares for one year.

• During any calendar year, we may repurchase no more than 5.0% of the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the prior calendar year.

• We have no obligation to repurchase shares if the repurchase would violate the restrictions on distributions under Maryland law, which prohibits distributions that would cause a corporation to fail to meet statutory tests of solvency.

• The cash available for repurchases on any particular date will generally be limited to the proceeds from the DRIP during the preceding four fiscal quarters, less any cash already used for repurchases since the beginning of the same period; however, subject to the limitations described above, we may use other sources of cash at the discretion of the board of directors. The limitations described above do not apply to shares repurchased due to a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability,” or “determination of incompetence.”

• Only those stockholders who purchased their shares from us or received their shares from us (directly or indirectly) through one or more non-cash transactions may be able to participate in the share repurchase program. In other words, once our shares are transferred for value by a stockholder, the transferee and all subsequent holders of the shares are not eligible to participate in the share repurchase program.

• The board of directors reserves the right, in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time, to reject any request for repurchase.

Our board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate the program upon 30 days’ notice. We may provide notice by including such information (a) in a current report on Form 8-K or in our annual or quarterly reports, all publicly filed with the SEC, or (b) in a separate mailing to the stockholders.

Item 3.        Defaults Upon Senior Securities

None.

Item 4.        Mine Safety Disclosures

Not applicable.

Item 5.        Other Information

Renewal of Advisory Agreement

On November 1, 2016, the conflicts committee of our board of directors approved the renewal of our advisory agreement with Phillips Edison NTR II LLC for an additional one year period through December 3, 2017. There were no other changes to the terms of the advisory agreement in connection with its renewal.

ORGANIZATION

Phillips Edison Grocery Center REIT II, Inc. (“we,” the “Company,” “our,” or “us”) was formed as a Maryland corporation in June 2013. Substantially all of our business is conducted through Phillips Edison Grocery Center Operating Partnership II, L.P., (the “Operating Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership formed in June 2013. We are a limited partner of the Operating Partnership, and our wholly owned subsidiary, PE Grocery Center OP GP II LLC, is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. We closed our primary offering of shares of common stock on September 15, 2015. We continue to offer up to 55.6 million shares of common stock under our distribution reinvestment plan (the “DRIP”).

Our advisor is Phillips Edison NTR II LLC (“PE-NTR II”), which is directly or indirectly owned by Phillips Edison Limited Partnership (the “Phillips Edison sponsor”). Under the terms of the advisory agreement between PE-NTR II and us (the “PE-NTR II Agreement”), PE-NTR II is responsible for the management of our day-to-day activities and the implementation of our investment strategy. The advisory agreement has a one-year term, but may be renewed for an unlimited number of successive one-year periods upon the mutual consent of the parties and approval of the independent members of our board of directors.

We invest primarily in well-occupied, grocery-anchored neighborhood and community shopping centers having a mix of creditworthy national and regional retailers selling necessity-based goods and services in strong demographic markets throughout the United States. In addition, we may invest in other retail properties including power and lifestyle shopping centers, multi-tenant shopping centers, free-standing single-tenant retail properties, and other real estate or real estate-related assets.

As of September 30, 2016, we wholly-owned fee simple interests in 70 real estate properties acquired from third parties unrelated to us or PE-NTR II. In addition, we own a 20% equity interest in a joint venture that owned seven real estate properties (see Note 4).

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Set forth below is a summary of the significant accounting estimates and policies that management believes are important to the preparation of our consolidated interim financial statements. Certain of our accounting estimates are particularly important for an understanding of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by management. As a result, these estimates are subject to a degree of uncertainty. There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2016, except for the items discussed below. For a full summary of our accounting policies, refer to our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 3, 2016.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation—The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“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. Readers of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should refer to the audited consolidated financial statements of Phillips Edison Grocery Center REIT II, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2015, which are included in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the periods presented have been included in this Quarterly Report. Our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the full year.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.

Gain on Sale of Assets—We recognize sales of assets only upon the closing of the transaction with the purchaser. We recognize gains (net of any taxes) on assets sold using the full accrual method upon closing if the collectibility of the sales price is reasonably assured, we are not obligated to perform any significant activities after the sale to earn the profit, we have received adequate initial investment from the purchaser, and other profit recognition criteria have been satisfied. We may defer recognition of gains in whole or in part until: (i) the profit is determinable, meaning that the collectibility of the sales price is reasonably assured or the amount that will not be collectible can be estimated; and (ii) the earnings process is virtually complete, meaning that we are not obliged to perform any significant activities after the sale to earn the profit. Gains and losses on transfers of operating properties resulting from the sale of a partial interest in properties to unconsolidated joint ventures are recognized using the partial sale provisions under Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 360-20, Property, Plant & Equipment - Real Estate Sales.

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture—We account for our investment in our unconsolidated joint venture using the equity method of accounting as we exercise significant influence over, but do not control, this entity. This investment was initially recorded at cost and is subsequently adjusted for contributions made to and distributions received from the joint venture. Earnings or loss for our investment are recognized in accordance with the terms of the applicable joint venture agreement, generally through a pro rata allocation. Under a pro rata allocation, net income or loss is allocated between the partners in the joint venture based on their respective stated ownership percentages.

To recognize the character of distributions from our unconsolidated joint venture, we review the nature of cash distributions received for purposes of determining whether such distributions should be classified as either a return on investment, which would be included in operating activities, or a return of investment, which would be included in investing activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows.

On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are indicators, including the operating performance of the underlying real estate and general market conditions, that the value of our investment in our unconsolidated joint venture may be impaired. An investment’s value is impaired only if management’s estimate of the fair value of the investment is less than its carrying value and such difference is deemed to be other-than-temporary. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over its estimated fair value.

Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon a discounted cash flow model for each specific investment that includes all estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specified holding period and, where applicable, any estimated debt premiums, capitalization rates, discount rates and credit spreads used in these models are based upon rates we believe to be within a reasonable range of current market rates.

Share-based Compensation—We account for our share-based compensation plan based on the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance which requires that compensation expense be recognized based on the fair value of the stock awards less estimated forfeitures. Our restricted stock grants vest based upon the completion of a service period (“service-based grants”). Service-based grants are valued according to the determined value per share for our common stock at the date of grant. Awards of service-based grants of stock are expensed as compensation on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. 

Reclassifications—The following line item on our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2015, was reclassified to conform to the current year presentation:

• Acquired Intangible Lease Assets was separated into Acquired Above-Market Lease Assets and Acquired In-Place Lease Assets.

Newly Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements—In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Topic 835): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”). This update amends existing guidance to require the presentation of certain debt issuance costs in the balance sheet as a deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability instead of a deferred charge. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15, Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements (“ASU 2015-15”). This update provides guidance regarding the presentation and subsequent measurement of debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements. We adopted ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 on January 1, 2016, and retrospectively applied the guidance for all periods presented. Unamortized debt issuance costs of $4.8 million and $1.4 million are included in Mortgages and Loans Payable, Net as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, which were previously included in Deferred Financing Expense, Net on our consolidated balance sheets. The remaining amounts included in Other Assets, Net on our consolidated balance sheets were related to our revolving credit facility. The adoption did not have an impact on our results of operations (see Note 6).

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis to ASC Topic 810 Consolidation (“ASU 2015-02”). ASU 2015-02 includes all reporting entities within the scope of Subtopic 810-10 Consolidation - Overall, including limited partnerships and similar legal entities, unless a scope exception applies. Overall the amendments in this update are to simplify the codification and reduce the number of consolidation models and place more emphasis on risk of loss when determining controlling financial interests. ASU 2015-02 was effective beginning in the first quarter of the year ending December 31, 2016. We have evaluated the impact of the adoption of ASU 2015-02 on our consolidated financial statements and have determined under ASU 2015-02 that the Operating Partnership is considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”). We are the primary beneficiary of the VIE and our partnership interest is considered a majority voting interest. As such, this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

The following table provides a brief description of recent accounting pronouncements that could have a material effect on our financial statements:

Standard	Description	Date of Adoption	Effect on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers	This update outlines a comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. ASU 2014-09 states that “an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.” While ASU 2014-09 specifically references contracts with customers, it may apply to certain other transactions such as the sale of real estate or equipment. In 2015, the FASB provided for a one-year deferral of the effective date for ASU 2014-09, making it effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017.	January 1, 2018	We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842)	This update amends existing guidance by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, but early adoption is permitted.	January 1, 2019	We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurement

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”) defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 emphasizes that fair value is intended to be a market-based measurement, as opposed to a transaction-specific measurement. Fair value is defined by ASC 820 as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, various techniques and assumptions can be used to estimate the fair value. Assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from three levels of the fair value hierarchy, as follows:

Level 1—Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access at the measurement date. An active market is defined as a market in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2—Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active (markets with few transactions), inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

Level 3—Unobservable inputs, only used to the extent that observable inputs are not available, reflect our assumptions about the pricing of an asset or liability.

Considerable judgment is necessary to develop estimated fair values of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts we did or could actually realize upon disposition of the financial assets and liabilities previously sold or currently held.

The following describes the methods we use to estimate the fair value of our financial and non-financial assets and liabilities:

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Accounts Receivable, and Accounts Payable and Other Liabilities—We consider the carrying values of these financial instruments to approximate fair value because of the short period of time between origination of the instruments and their expected realization.

Real Estate Investments—The purchase prices of the investment properties, including related lease intangible assets and liabilities, were allocated at estimated fair value based on Level 3 inputs, such as discount rates, capitalization rates, comparable sales, replacement costs, income and expense growth rates, and current market rents and allowances as determined by management.

Real estate assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the individual property may not be recoverable, or at least annually. In such an event, a comparison will be made of the projected operating cash flows of each property on an undiscounted basis to the carrying amount of such property. Such carrying amount would be adjusted, if necessary, to estimated fair values to reflect impairment in the value of the asset.

Mortgages and Loans Payable—We estimate the fair value of our debt by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at rates currently offered for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities by our lenders using Level 3 inputs. The discount rate used approximates current lending rates for loans or groups of loans with similar maturities and credit quality, assuming the debt is outstanding through maturity and considering the debt’s collateral (if applicable). We have utilized market information, as available, or present value techniques to estimate the amounts required to be disclosed.

The following is a summary of discount rates and borrowings as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 (dollars in thousands):

	September 30, 2016			December 31, 2015
Discount rates:
Unsecured variable-rate debt	1.98% - 2.22%			—		%
Secured fixed-rate debt	3.88		%	3.50		%
Borrowings:
Fair value	$	422,203		$	87,387
Recorded value(1)	425,511			82,720

⁽¹⁾  Recorded value does not include deferred financing costs of $4.8 million and $1.4 million as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

Derivative Instruments—In July 2016, we entered into interest rate swap agreements with a notional amount of $243 million that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These interest rate swaps effectively fix the LIBOR rate on the first tranche of $121.5 million and second tranche of $121.5 million of our unsecured term loan facility (the “Term Loans”) to a fixed rate of interest of 2.24% through July 2019 and 2.3075% through June 2020, respectively. These swaps qualify and have been designated as cash flow hedges.

As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we were also party to two interest rate swap agreements with a total notional amount of $15.8 million and $16.1 million, respectively. They were assumed as part of two property acquisitions, and are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The interest rate swap agreements, in effect, fix the variable interest of two of our secured variable-rate mortgage notes at an annual interest rate of 6.0% through July 2018. These swaps have not been designated as cash flow hedges.

The fair values of the interest rate swap agreements as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, were based on the estimated amounts we would receive or pay to terminate the contracts at the reporting date and were determined using interest rate pricing models and interest rate related observable inputs. Although we determined that the significant inputs used to value our derivatives fell within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with our counterparties and our own credit risk utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by us and our counterparties. However, as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we have assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of our derivative positions and have determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives. As a result, we have determined that our derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

We record derivative assets in Other Assets, Net and derivative liabilities in Accounts Payable and Other Liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. The fair value measurements of our financial liability and asset as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, are as follows (in thousands):

	September 30, 2016		December 31, 2015

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures Disclosure

INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURE

On March 22, 2016, we entered into a joint venture (the “Joint Venture”) through our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, PE OP II Value Added Grocery, LLC (“REIT Member”) with a limited partnership (“Investor Member”) affiliated with TPG Real Estate, the real estate platform of the global private investment firm TPG, and with PECO Value Added Grocery Manager, LLC (“PECO Member”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of our Phillips Edison sponsor, and an affiliate of our advisor and property manager, Phillips Edison & Company Ltd. (“Property Manager”). REIT Member owns a 20% initial equity interest and Investor Member owns an 80% initial equity interest in the Joint Venture. REIT Member and Investor Member may contribute up to $50 million and $200 million of equity, respectively, to the Joint Venture.

PECO Member will manage and conduct the day-to-day operations and affairs of the Joint Venture. REIT Member has customary approval rights in respect to major decisions, but does not have the right to cause or prohibit various material transactions. The Joint Venture’s income, losses, and distributions will generally be allocated based on the members’ respective ownership interests. Therefore, we account for the joint venture under the equity method. Distributions of net cash are anticipated to be made on a monthly basis, as appropriate. Additional capital contributions in proportion to the members’ respective capital interests in the Joint Venture may be required.

In addition, REIT Member entered into a Contribution Agreement with Investor Member and the Joint Venture (the “Contribution Agreement”), pursuant to which REIT Member contributed to the Joint Venture its ownership interests in six grocery-anchored shopping center properties. The contributed properties were valued at approximately $94.3 million. The Joint Venture distributed cash of $87.4 million to REIT Member, which was net of REIT Member’s initial investment of $6.9 million. Due to our 20% interest in the Joint Venture, the contribution of the six properties is considered a partial sale. As a result, we deferred 20% of the gain from the contribution and recognized an immediate net gain of $3.3 million from this transaction. As of September 30, 2016, we have contributed $9.3 million of the $50 million commitment.

Subsequent to September 30, 2016, the Joint Venture acquired two additional shopping centers, bringing their property total to nine. We also contributed additional $1.4 million to the Joint Venture for their upcoming subsequent acquisitions.

Mortgages and Loans Payable

MORTGAGES AND LOANS PAYABLE

Our credit agreement provides access to an unsecured revolving credit facility and an unsecured term loan facility (the “Term Loans”). As of September 30, 2016, the capacity on our revolving credit facility was $350 million, with a current interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.3%. The revolving credit facility matures in January 2018 with additional options to extend the maturity to January 2019. The Term Loans include two tranches with an interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.3%. The first tranche of the Term Loans has a maximum principal amount of $185 million and matures in July 2019, with options to extend the maturity to June 2021. The second tranche of the Term Loans has a maximum principal amount of $185 million and matures in June 2020, with an option to extend the maturity to June 2021. The Operating Partnership borrowed $121.5 million under each tranche on the closing date of the first amendment. A maturity date extension for the first or second tranche of term loans requires the payment of an extension fee of 0.15% of the then-outstanding principal amount of the corresponding tranche.

As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the weighted-average interest rate for all of our mortgages and loans payable was 2.8% and 5.6%, respectively.

The following is a summary of our debt obligations as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 (in thousands):

	September 30, 2016			December 31, 2015
Unsecured term loans - fixed-rate(1)	$	243,000		$	—
Unsecured revolving credit facility - variable-rate (2)	56,000			—

Total	$	420,735		$	81,305

⁽¹⁾  As of September 30, 2016, the interest rate on $243 million outstanding under our Term Loans was, effectively, fixed at various interest rates by two interest rate swap agreements with maturities ranging from July 2019 to June 2020 (see Notes 3 and 8).

⁽²⁾  The gross borrowings under our revolving credit facility were $448.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016. The gross payments under our revolving credit facility were $392.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

⁽³⁾  Due to the non-recourse nature of our fixed-rate mortgages, the assets and liabilities of the properties securing such mortgages are neither available to pay the debts of the consolidated property-holding limited liability companies nor do they constitute obligations of such consolidated limited liability companies as of September 30, 2016. One of our mortgages has a limited exception which represents a potential $1.0 million obligation in the event of default.

⁽⁴⁾  As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the interest rates on $15.8 million and $16.1 million, respectively, outstanding under two of our variable-rate mortgage notes payable were, in effect, fixed at 6.0% by two interest rate swap agreements, which expire in July 2018 (see Notes 3 and 8).

⁽⁵⁾  Net of accumulated amortization of $1.3 million and $0.7 million as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

⁽⁶⁾  Net of accumulated amortization of $0.9 million and $0.2 million as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. Deferred financing costs related to the revolving credit facility were $2.2 million and $1.7 million, as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, which is net of accumulated amortization of $1.8 million and $1.1 million, respectively, and are recorded in Other Assets, Net.

Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Text Block]

DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

We are exposed to certain risks arising from both our business operations and economic conditions. We principally manage our exposure to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of our core business activities. We manage economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of our debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, we enter into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. Our derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of our known or expected cash receipts and our known or expected cash payments principally related to our investments and borrowings.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

Our objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, we primarily use interest rate swaps as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for our making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. During the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with certain variable-rate debt. The ineffective portion, if any, of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. 

As of September 30, 2016, we had two interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $243 million that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk. Amounts reported in AOCI related to these derivatives will be reclassified to Interest Expense, Net as interest payments are made on the variable-rate debt. During the next 12 months, we estimate that an additional $0.1 million will be reclassified from Other Comprehensive Income as an increase to Interest Expense, Net. We had no derivatives outstanding during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and are used to manage our exposure to interest rate movements and other identified risks, but do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements to be classified as hedging instruments. Changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments, as well as any payments, are recorded directly in Other (Expense) Income, Net, and resulted in a loss of $43,700 for the three months ended September 30, 2016. Changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments, as well as any payments, resulted in a gain of $0.1 million for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016. We had no derivatives outstanding during the three and nine months endedSeptember 30, 2015.

Tabular Disclosure of the Effect of Derivative Instruments on AOCI and the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The table below presents the changes in AOCI and the effect of our derivative financial instruments on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the nine months endedSeptember 30, 2016 (in thousands):

Amount of gain recognized in other comprehensive income on derivative	$	1,012
Amount of loss reclassified from AOCI into interest expense	89
Current-period other comprehensive income			1,101
Balance in AOCI as of September 30, 2016			$	1,101

Credit Risk-Related Contingent Features

We have agreements with our derivative counterparties that contain provisions where, if we either default or are capable of being declared in default on any of our indebtedness, we could also be declared to be in default on our derivative obligations. As of September 30, 2016, the fair value of our derivatives excluded any adjustment for nonperformance risk related to this agreement. As of September 30, 2016, we have not posted any collateral related to these agreements.

Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract]

Equity

EQUITY

On April 14, 2016, our board of directors established an estimated value per share of our common stock of $22.50 based substantially on the estimated market value of our portfolio of real estate properties as of March 31, 2016. We engaged a third party valuation firm to provide a calculation of the range in estimated value per share of our common stock as of March 31, 2016, which reflected certain balance sheet assets and liabilities as of that date.

Distribution Reinvestment Plan—We have adopted the DRIP which allows stockholders to invest distributions in additional shares of our common stock. We continue to offer up to approximately 55.6 million shares of our common stock under the DRIP. Initially, the purchase price per share under the DRIP was $23.75. In accordance with the DRIP, because we established an estimated value per share on April 14, 2016, subsequent to that date, participants acquired and continue to acquire shares of common stock through the DRIP at a price of $22.50 per share.

Share Repurchase Program (“SRP”)—Our SRP provides a limited opportunity for stockholders to have shares of common stock repurchased, subject to certain restrictions and limitations. Initially, shares were repurchased at a price equal to or at a discount from the stockholder’s original purchase prices paid for the shares being repurchased. Effective April 14, 2016, the repurchase price per share for all stockholders is equal to the estimated value per share of $22.50.

Effective May 15, 2016, under our amended SRP, the maximum amount of common stock that we may repurchase at the stockholder’s election during any calendar year is limited, among other things, to 5% of the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the prior calendar year. The maximum amount is reduced each reporting period by the current year share repurchases to date. In addition, the cash available for repurchases on any particular date is generally limited to the proceeds from the DRIP during the preceding four fiscal quarters, less amounts already used for repurchases since the beginning of that period.

Class B Units—The Operating Partnership issues limited partnership units that are designated as Class B units for asset management services provided by PE-NTR II. The vesting of the Class B units is contingent upon a market condition and service condition. We had outstanding unvested Class B units of 391,349 and 231,809 as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share [Text Block]

EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted EPS considers the effect of any potentially dilutive share equivalents for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. In the third quarter of 2016, approximately 4,400 shares of restricted stock were granted under our 2013 Independent Director Stock Plan and are potentially dilutive. The securities were included in our diluted EPS calculation but did not have a material impact on EPS for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016. Class B units are potentially dilutive securities as they contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents.

There were 391,349 and 142,714 Class B units of the Operating Partnership outstanding as of September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The vesting of the Class B units is contingent upon a market condition and service condition. Since the satisfaction of both conditions was not probable as of September 30, 2016 and 2015, the Class B units remained unvested and thus were not included in the diluted net income per share computations.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Economic Dependency—We are dependent on PE-NTR II, the Property Manager, and their respective affiliates for certain services that are essential to us, including asset acquisition and disposition decisions, asset management, operating and leasing of our properties, and other general and administrative responsibilities. In the event that PE-NTR II, the Property Manager, and/or their respective affiliates are unable to provide such services, we would be required to find alternative service providers, which could result in higher costs and expenses.

Advisory Agreement—Pursuant to the PE-NTR II Agreement, PE-NTR II is entitled to specified fees for certain services, including managing our day-to-day activities and implementing our investment strategy. PE-NTR II manages our day-to-day affairs and our portfolio of real estate investments subject to the board’s supervision. Expenses are reimbursed to PE-NTR II based on amounts incurred on our behalf.

Prior to December 3, 2015, our advisor was American Realty Capital PECO II Advisors, LLC (“ARC”). On November 2, 2015, the conflicts committee of our board of directors made the decision to terminate the former advisory agreement with ARC, effective as of December 3, 2015. Pursuant to the former advisory agreement, ARC was entitled to specified fees for certain services, including managing our day-to-day activities and implementing our investment strategy. ARC had entered into a sub-advisory agreement with PE-NTR II, who managed our day-to-day affairs and our portfolio of real estate investments on behalf of ARC, subject to the board’s supervision and with the condition that certain major decisions required the consent of both ARC and PE-NTR II. The expenses reimbursed to ARC and PE-NTR II were reimbursed in proportion to the amount of expenses incurred on our behalf by ARC and PE-NTR II, respectively.

Organization and Offering Costs—Under the terms of the former advisory agreement, we were to reimburse, on a monthly basis, ARC, PE-NTR II, or their respective affiliates for cumulative organization and offering costs and future organization and offering costs they incurred on our behalf, but only to the extent that the reimbursement would not exceed 2% of gross proceeds raised in all primary offerings measured at the completion of such primary offering.

Summarized below are the cumulative organization and offering costs charged by and the cumulative costs reimbursed to ARC, PE-NTR II and their affiliates as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, and any related amounts reimbursable to us as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 (in thousands):

	September 30, 2016		December 31, 2015

Less: Total organization and offering costs reimbursed	18,081		19,020
Total organization and offering costs receivable	$	—	$	(939	)

Acquisition Fee—We paid ARC under the former advisory agreement, and we pay PE-NTR II under the PE-NTR II Agreement, an acquisition fee related to services provided in connection with the selection and purchase or origination of real estate and real estate-related investments. The acquisition fee is equal to 1% of the contract purchase price of each property we acquire, including acquisition or origination expenses and any debt attributable to such investments.

Acquisition Expenses—We reimburse PE-NTR II for direct expenses incurred related to selecting, evaluating, and acquiring assets on our behalf. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, we reimbursed PE-NTR II for personnel costs related to due diligence services for assets we acquired during the period.

Asset Management Subordinated Participation—Within 60 days after the end of each calendar quarter (subject to the approval of our board of directors), we will pay an asset management subordinated participation partially by issuing a number of restricted operating partnership units designated as Class B Units to PE-NTR II and ARC equal to: (i) 0.25% multiplied by (a) prior to the date on which we calculated an estimated net asset value (“NAV”) per share, the cost of assets and (b) on and after the date on which we calculated an estimated NAV per share, the lower of the cost of assets and the applicable quarterly NAV divided by (ii) (a) prior to the date on which we calculated an estimated NAV per share, the value of one share of common stock as of the last day of such calendar quarter, which was equal to $22.50 (the primary offering price minus selling commissions and dealer manager fees) and (b) on and after the date on which we calculated an estimated NAV per share, the per share NAV. Our board of directors established an estimated NAV per share of $22.50 on April 14, 2016.

PE-NTR II and ARC are entitled to receive distributions on the Class B units at the same rate as distributions are paid to common stockholders. Such distributions are in addition to the incentive compensation that PE-NTR II, ARC, and their affiliates may receive from us. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Operating Partnership issued 159,540 Class B units to PE-NTR II and ARC under the advisory agreement for the asset management services performed during the period from October 1, 2015 to June 30, 2016. These Class B units will not vest until an economic hurdle has been met. PE-NTR II or one of its affiliates must continue to provide advisory services through the date that such economic hurdle is met. The economic hurdle will be met when the value of the Operating Partnership’s assets plus all distributions made equal or exceed the total amount of capital contributed by investors plus a 6.0% cumulative, pre-tax, non-compounded annual return thereon.

Under the PE-NTR II Agreement, beginning in January 2016, the asset management fee remained at 1% of the cost of our assets, but is paid 80% in cash and 20% in Class B units of the Operating Partnership instead of entirely in Class B units. The cash portion of the asset management fee is paid on a monthly basis in arrears at the rate of 0.06667% multiplied by the cost of our assets as of the last day of the preceding monthly period. Under the first amendment to the Operating Partnership’s amended and restated agreement of limited partnership, the Class B units portion of the asset management fee was based on the rate of 0.05% multiplied by the cost of our assets. On April 14, 2016, we established an estimated NAV and the calculation of the Class B units portion of the asset management fee was changed to be based on the rate of 0.05% multiplied by the lower of the cost of our assets and our estimated NAV. The Class B units continue to be issued quarterly in arrears and remain subject to existing forfeiture provisions.

Financing Coordination Fee—We paid PE-NTR II and ARC under the former advisory agreement a financing fee equal to 0.75% of all amounts made available under any loan or line of credit in connection with the origination or refinancing of any debt that we obtain and use to finance properties or other permitted investments. As of January 1, 2016, we no longer pay this fee.

Disposition Fee—We pay PE-NTR II under the PE-NTR II Agreement, and we paid ARC under the former advisory agreement, for substantial assistance in connection with the sale of properties or other investments up to the lesser of: (i) 2% of the contract sales price of each property or other investment sold; or (ii) one-half of the total brokerage commissions paid if a non-affiliated broker is also involved in the sale, provided that total real estate commissions paid (to PE-NTR II and others) in connection with the sale may not exceed the lesser of a competitive real estate commission or 6% of the contract sales price. The conflicts committee of our board of directors will determine whether PE-NTR II has provided substantial assistance to us in connection with the sale of an asset. Substantial assistance in connection with the sale of a property includes preparation of an investment package for the property (including an investment analysis, rent rolls, tenant information regarding credit, a property title report, an environmental report, a structural report and exhibits) or such other substantial services performed by PE-NTR II in connection with a sale.

General and Administrative Expenses—As of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we owed PE-NTR II and their affiliates $35,000 and $18,000, respectively, for general and administrative expenses paid on our behalf.

Summarized below are the fees earned by and the expenses reimbursable to ARC and PE-NTR II, except for organization and offering costs and unpaid general and administrative expenses, which we disclose above, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, and any related amounts unpaid as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 (in thousands):

Expenses and Reimbursements—The Property Manager hires, directs, and establishes policies for employees who have direct responsibility for the operations of each real property it manages, which may include, but is not limited to, on-site managers and building and maintenance personnel. Certain employees of the Property Manager may be employed on a part-time basis and may also be employed by PE-NTR II or certain of its affiliates. The Property Manager also directs the purchase of equipment and supplies and supervises all maintenance activity. We reimburse the costs and expenses incurred by the Property Manager on our behalf, including employee compensation, legal, travel and other out-of-pocket expenses that are directly related to the management of specific properties and corporate matters, as well as fees and expenses of third-party accountants.

Dealer Manager—The dealer manager for our initial public offering was Realty Capital Securities, LLC (the “Dealer Manager”). The Dealer Manager provided certain sales, promotional and marketing services in connection with the distribution of the shares of common stock offered under our offering. Excluding shares sold pursuant to the “friends and family” program, the Dealer Manager was generally paid a sales commission equal to 7% of the gross proceeds from the sale of shares of the common stock sold in the primary offering and a dealer manager fee equal to 3% of the gross proceeds from the sale of shares of the common stock sold in the primary offering.

The Dealer Manager typically reallowed 100% of the selling commissions and a portion of the dealer manager fee to participating broker-dealers. Alternatively, a participating broker-dealer could elect to receive a commission based upon the proceeds from the sale of shares by such participating broker-dealer, with a portion of such fee being paid at the time of such sale and the remaining amounts paid on each anniversary of the closing of such sale up to and including the fifth anniversary of the closing of such sale, in which event, a portion of the dealer manager fee could be reallowed such that the combined selling commission and dealer manager fee did not exceed 10% of the gross proceeds of our primary offering. The dealer manager agreement terminated upon termination of the initial public offering.

Prior to February 2016, we utilized transfer agent services provided by an affiliate of the Dealer Manager. Fees incurred from this transfer agent represented amounts paid by PE-NTR II to the affiliate of the Dealer Manager for such services. We reimbursed PE-NTR II for these fees through the payment of organization and offering costs. The transfer agent ceased services and the agreement was terminated in connection with the bankruptcy of the transfer agent and its parent company.

The following table details total selling commissions, dealer manager fees, and service fees paid to the Dealer Manager and its affiliate related to the sale of common stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 and any related amounts unpaid, which are included as a component of total unpaid organization and offering costs, as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 (in thousands):

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation—The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“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. Readers of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should refer to the audited consolidated financial statements of Phillips Edison Grocery Center REIT II, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2015, which are included in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the periods presented have been included in this Quarterly Report. Our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the full year.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.

Gain on Sale of Assets

Gain on Sale of Assets—We recognize sales of assets only upon the closing of the transaction with the purchaser. We recognize gains (net of any taxes) on assets sold using the full accrual method upon closing if the collectibility of the sales price is reasonably assured, we are not obligated to perform any significant activities after the sale to earn the profit, we have received adequate initial investment from the purchaser, and other profit recognition criteria have been satisfied. We may defer recognition of gains in whole or in part until: (i) the profit is determinable, meaning that the collectibility of the sales price is reasonably assured or the amount that will not be collectible can be estimated; and (ii) the earnings process is virtually complete, meaning that we are not obliged to perform any significant activities after the sale to earn the profit. Gains and losses on transfers of operating properties resulting from the sale of a partial interest in properties to unconsolidated joint ventures are recognized using the partial sale provisions under Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 360-20, Property, Plant & Equipment - Real Estate Sales.

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Venture—We account for our investment in our unconsolidated joint venture using the equity method of accounting as we exercise significant influence over, but do not control, this entity. This investment was initially recorded at cost and is subsequently adjusted for contributions made to and distributions received from the joint venture. Earnings or loss for our investment are recognized in accordance with the terms of the applicable joint venture agreement, generally through a pro rata allocation. Under a pro rata allocation, net income or loss is allocated between the partners in the joint venture based on their respective stated ownership percentages.

To recognize the character of distributions from our unconsolidated joint venture, we review the nature of cash distributions received for purposes of determining whether such distributions should be classified as either a return on investment, which would be included in operating activities, or a return of investment, which would be included in investing activities on the consolidated statements of cash flows.

On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are indicators, including the operating performance of the underlying real estate and general market conditions, that the value of our investment in our unconsolidated joint venture may be impaired. An investment’s value is impaired only if management’s estimate of the fair value of the investment is less than its carrying value and such difference is deemed to be other-than-temporary. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over its estimated fair value.

Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon a discounted cash flow model for each specific investment that includes all estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specified holding period and, where applicable, any estimated debt premiums, capitalization rates, discount rates and credit spreads used in these models are based upon rates we believe to be within a reasonable range of current market rates.

Share-based Compensation

Share-based Compensation—We account for our share-based compensation plan based on the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance which requires that compensation expense be recognized based on the fair value of the stock awards less estimated forfeitures. Our restricted stock grants vest based upon the completion of a service period (“service-based grants”). Service-based grants are valued according to the determined value per share for our common stock at the date of grant. Awards of service-based grants of stock are expensed as compensation on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. 

Reclassifications

Reclassifications—The following line item on our consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2015, was reclassified to conform to the current year presentation:

• Acquired Intangible Lease Assets was separated into Acquired Above-Market Lease Assets and Acquired In-Place Lease Assets.

Newly Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Newly Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements—In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Topic 835): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”). This update amends existing guidance to require the presentation of certain debt issuance costs in the balance sheet as a deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability instead of a deferred charge. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15, Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements (“ASU 2015-15”). This update provides guidance regarding the presentation and subsequent measurement of debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements. We adopted ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 on January 1, 2016, and retrospectively applied the guidance for all periods presented. Unamortized debt issuance costs of $4.8 million and $1.4 million are included in Mortgages and Loans Payable, Net as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, which were previously included in Deferred Financing Expense, Net on our consolidated balance sheets. The remaining amounts included in Other Assets, Net on our consolidated balance sheets were related to our revolving credit facility. The adoption did not have an impact on our results of operations (see Note 6).

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis to ASC Topic 810 Consolidation (“ASU 2015-02”). ASU 2015-02 includes all reporting entities within the scope of Subtopic 810-10 Consolidation - Overall, including limited partnerships and similar legal entities, unless a scope exception applies. Overall the amendments in this update are to simplify the codification and reduce the number of consolidation models and place more emphasis on risk of loss when determining controlling financial interests. ASU 2015-02 was effective beginning in the first quarter of the year ending December 31, 2016. We have evaluated the impact of the adoption of ASU 2015-02 on our consolidated financial statements and have determined under ASU 2015-02 that the Operating Partnership is considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”). We are the primary beneficiary of the VIE and our partnership interest is considered a majority voting interest. As such, this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

The following table provides a brief description of recent accounting pronouncements that could have a material effect on our financial statements:

Standard	Description	Date of Adoption	Effect on the Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers	This update outlines a comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. ASU 2014-09 states that “an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.” While ASU 2014-09 specifically references contracts with customers, it may apply to certain other transactions such as the sale of real estate or equipment. In 2015, the FASB provided for a one-year deferral of the effective date for ASU 2014-09, making it effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017.	January 1, 2018	We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842)	This update amends existing guidance by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, but early adoption is permitted.	January 1, 2019	We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurement, Policy

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”) defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 emphasizes that fair value is intended to be a market-based measurement, as opposed to a transaction-specific measurement. Fair value is defined by ASC 820 as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, various techniques and assumptions can be used to estimate the fair value. Assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from three levels of the fair value hierarchy, as follows:

Level 1—Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access at the measurement date. An active market is defined as a market in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2—Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active (markets with few transactions), inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

Level 3—Unobservable inputs, only used to the extent that observable inputs are not available, reflect our assumptions about the pricing of an asset or liability.
