COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Commitments

At March 31, 2020, the Company had outstanding performance bonds totaling $1.1 million. As a lessor, the Company had $237.1 million in future obligations under leases to fund tenant improvements and other future construction obligations at March 31, 2020.

Litigation

The Company is subject to various legal proceedings, claims, and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, some of which are expected to be covered by liability insurance. Management makes assumptions and estimates concerning the likelihood and amount of any potential loss relating to these matters using the latest information available. The Company records a liability for litigation if an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. If an unfavorable outcome is probable and a reasonable estimate of the loss is a range, the Company accrues the best estimate within the range. If no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, the Company accrues the minimum amount within the range. If an unfavorable outcome is probable but the amount of the loss cannot be reasonably estimated, the Company discloses the nature of the litigation and indicates that an estimate of the loss or range of loss cannot be made. If an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible and the estimated loss is material, the Company discloses the nature and estimate of the possible loss of the litigation. The Company does not disclose information with respect to litigation where an unfavorable outcome is considered to be remote or where the estimated loss would not be material. Based on current expectations, such matters, both individually and in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the liquidity, results of operations, business, or financial condition of the Company.

Contingencies

Recent events related to the COVID-19 pandemic and the actions taken to contain it have created substantial uncertainty for all businesses, including the Company. The Company’s financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2020 have been prepared in light of these circumstances. We have continued to follow the policies described in our footnotes in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, including those related to impairment and estimates of the likelihood of collectibility of amounts due from tenants. While the results of our current analysis did not result in any impairments or material valuation adjustments to amounts due from tenants as of March 31, 2020, circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic may result in recording impairments or material valuation adjustments to amounts due from tenants in future periods.

While the Company has not been obligated contractually or by law to provide its tenants with rent relief related to COVID-19, it will recognize any associated rent reductions in the period during which those obligations occur. Otherwise any COVID-19 related changes in negotiated rents or leasing terms will be accounted for as lease modifications and the Company will recognize the effects over time.
