Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1.
Nature of Business and Financial Statement Presentation

Nature of Business

SITE Centers Corp. and its related consolidated real estate subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “SITE Centers”) and unconsolidated joint ventures are primarily engaged in the business of owning, leasing, acquiring, redeveloping, developing and managing shopping centers. Unless otherwise provided, references herein to the Company or SITE Centers include SITE Centers Corp. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company’s tenant base includes a mixture of national and regional retail chains and local tenants. Consequently, the Company’s credit risk is primarily concentrated in the retail industry.

Use of Estimates in Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Unaudited Interim Financial Statements

These financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, the interim financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results of the periods presented. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the results of the Company and all entities in which the Company has a controlling interest or has been determined to be the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in real estate joint ventures in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, but does not have financial or operating control, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the Company’s share of the earnings (or loss) of these joint ventures is included in consolidated net income (loss).

Revenue Recognition

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Revenue and Receivables

Beginning in March 2020, the retail sector was significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Though the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on tenant operations varied by tenant category, local conditions and applicable government mandates, a significant number of the Company’s tenants experienced a reduction in sales and foot traffic, and many tenants were forced to limit

9


their operations or close their businesses for a period of time, primarily in 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic also had a significant impact on the Company’s collection of rents from April 2020 through the end of 2020. The Company engaged in discussions with most of its larger tenants that failed to satisfy all or a portion of their rent obligations and agreed to terms on rent-deferral arrangements (and, in a small number of cases, rent abatements) and other lease modifications with a significant number of such tenants. As of September 30, 2022, the majority of these deferral arrangements for tenants that are not accounted for on the cash basis have been repaid.

For those tenants where the Company is unable to assert that collection of amounts due over the lease term is probable, regardless if the Company has entered into a deferral agreement to extend the payment terms, the Company has categorized these tenants on the cash basis of accounting. As a result, all existing accounts receivable relating to these tenants have been reserved in full, including straight-line rental income, and no rental income is recognized from such tenants once they have been placed on the cash basis of accounting until payments are received. The Company will remove the cash basis designation and resume recording rental income from such tenants on a straight-line basis at such time it believes collection from the tenants is probable based upon a demonstrated payment history, improved liquidity, the addition of credit-worthy guarantors or a recapitalization event.

The Company recorded net uncollectible revenue of $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to rental income paid in 2022 related to outstanding amounts owed for prior periods from tenants on the cash basis of accounting and related reserve adjustments.

Fee and Other Income

Fee and Other Income on the consolidated statements of operations includes revenue from contracts with customers, which is primarily from the Company's unconsolidated joint ventures (Note 3). Revenue from contracts with Retail Value Inc. was $0.1 million and $9.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and $0.9 million and $19.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Investments in and Advances to Joint Ventures

At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had ownership interests in various unconsolidated joint ventures that had investments in 19 and 47 shopping center properties, respectively.

Disposition of Shopping Centers and Joint Venture Interests

In the third quarter of 2022, the DDRM Joint Venture sold a portfolio of 13 shopping centers for an aggregate sales price of $387.6 million ($77.5 million at the Company's share) with the related mortgage debt of $225.0 million repaid upon closing. In 2022, the DDRM Joint Venture sold two additional shopping centers for an aggregate sales price of $41.0 million ($8.2 million at the Company’s share). The Company’s share of the gain on sale on these transactions was $27.3 million.

In the second quarter of 2022, the Company sold its 20% interest in the SAU Joint Venture to its partner, the State of Utah, based on a gross asset value of $155.7 million (at 100%). In addition, the Company sold its 50% interest in Lennox Town Center to its partner, based on a gross asset value of $77.0 million (at 100%). These transactions resulted in Gain on Sale of Interests of $42.2 million.

In the first quarter of 2022, the Company acquired its joint venture partner’s 80% interest in one asset owned by the DDRM Joint Venture (Casselberry Commons, Casselberry, Florida) for $35.6 million, and stepped up the previous 20% interest due to change in control. The transaction resulted in Gain on Change in Control of Interests of $3.3 million (Note 4).

Revolving Credit Facilities

As of September 30, 2022, the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below) had outstanding borrowings of $80.0 million with a weighted-average interest rate of 3.9%.

 

In June 2022, the Company amended and restated its unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of financial institutions and J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). The Revolving Credit Facility provides for borrowings of up to $950 million if certain borrowing conditions are satisfied, and an accordion feature for expansion of availability up to $1.45 billion, provided that new lenders agree to the existing terms of the facility or existing lenders increase their commitment level. The Revolving Credit Facility was amended to, among other things, (i) modify the financial covenants and certain other provisions contained therein, (ii) extend the maturity date to June 2026 subject to two six-month options to extend the maturity to June 2027 upon the Company’s request (subject to satisfaction of certain conditions), and (iii) change the interest rate benchmark from the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”).

The Company’s borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at variable rates at the Company’s election, based on either (i) the SOFR rate plus a spread (0.95% at September 30, 2022) or (ii) the alternative base rate plus a spread (0% at September 30, 2022). The Revolving Credit Facility also provides for an annual facility fee, which was 20 basis points on the entire facility at September 30, 2022. The specified spreads and facility fee vary depending on the Company’s long-term senior unsecured debt ratings from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., S&P Global Ratings and Fitch Investor Services, Inc. (or their respective successors). The Revolving Credit Facility also features a sustainability-linked pricing component whereby the applicable interest rate margin can be adjusted by one or two basis points if the Company meets certain sustainability performance targets. The Company is required to comply with certain covenants under the Revolving Credit Facility relating to total outstanding indebtedness, secured indebtedness, value of unencumbered real estate assets and fixed charge coverage. The Company was in compliance with these financial covenants at September 30, 2022.

In June 2022, in connection with the amendment to the Revolving Credit Facility described above, the Company terminated its separate $20 million unsecured revolving credit facility with PNC Bank, National Association.

7.
Term Loan

As of September 30, 2022, the Company’s Term Loan (as defined below) had outstanding borrowings of $200.0 million, all of which has been converted to a fixed interest rate through the utilization of the Swap (Note 8). The effective fixed rate which includes the applicable margin described below is 3.8%.

In June 2022, the Company amended and restated its $100 million unsecured term loan with a syndicate of financial institutions and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (the “Term Loan”) to, among other things, (i) modify the

13


financial covenants and certain other provisions contained therein in a manner consistent with the amendments made to the Revolving Credit Facility, (ii) extend the maturity date to June 2027, (iii) add a $100 million delayed draw feature (that was drawn upon in June 2022) and (iv) change the interest rate benchmark from LIBOR to SOFR. The Term Loan bears interest at variable rates, based on the Company’s long-term senior unsecured debt ratings, equal to (i) the SOFR rate plus a spread (1.05% at September 30, 2022) or (ii) the alternative base rate plus a spread (0.0% at September 30, 2022). The Company may increase the principal amount of the Term Loan in the future to up to $800 million in the aggregate provided that existing or new lenders are identified to provide additional loan commitments. The Term Loan also features a sustainability-linked pricing component whereby the applicable interest rate margin can be adjusted by one to two basis points if the Company meets certain sustainability performance targets. The Company is required to comply with covenants similar to those contained in the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company was in compliance with these financial covenants at September 30, 2022.

8.
Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

Measurement of Fair Value

At September 30, 2022, the Company used a pay-fixed interest rate swap to manage its exposure to changes in benchmark interest rates (the “Swap”). The estimated fair value was determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. In addition, credit valuation adjustments, which consider the impact of any credit enhancements to the contract, are incorporated in the fair value to account for potential non-performance risk, including the Company’s own non-performance risk and the respective counterparty’s non-performance risk. The Company determined that the significant inputs used to value its derivative fell within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Items Measured on Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The Company maintains an interest rate swap agreement (included in Other Assets) measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2022. The following table presents information about the Company’s financial assets and liabilities and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques used by the Company to determine such fair value (in millions):

Debt

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair value disclosures of debt. The fair market value of senior notes is determined using a pricing model to approximate the trading price of the Company’s public debt. The fair market value for all other debt is estimated using a discounted cash flow technique that incorporates future contractual interest and principal payments and a market interest yield curve with adjustments for duration, optionality and risk profile, including the Company’s non-performance risk and loan to value. The Company’s senior notes and all other debt are classified as Level 2 and Level 3, respectively, in the fair value hierarchy.

Considerable judgment is necessary to develop estimated fair values of financial instruments. Accordingly, the estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of the financial instruments.

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources and duration of its debt funding and, from time to time, through the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the

14


Company enters 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 values of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s borrowings.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company generally uses swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. The swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had one effective Swap with a notional amount of $200.0 million, expiring in June 2027, which converts SOFR rate debt to a fixed rate of 2.75%.

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 (“OCI”) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings, into interest expense, in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. All components of the Swap were included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness. The Company expects to reflect within the next 12 months, a decrease to interest expense (and a corresponding increase to earnings) of approximately $2.8 million.

The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparty to the Swaps if the derivative position has a positive balance. The Company believes it mitigates its credit risk by entering into swaps with major financial institutions. The Company continually monitors and actively manages interest costs on its variable-rate debt portfolio and may enter into additional interest rate swap positions or other derivative interest rate instruments based on market conditions. The Company has not entered, and does not plan to enter, into any derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Credit Risk-Related Contingent Features

The Company has an agreement with the Swap counterparty that contains a provision whereby if the Company defaults on certain of its indebtedness, the Company could also be declared in default on the Swap, resulting in an acceleration of payment under the Swap.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OPERATIONS

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) provides readers with a perspective from management on the financial condition, results of operations and liquidity of SITE Centers Corp. and its related consolidated real estate subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “SITE Centers”) and other factors that may affect the Company’s future results. The Company believes it is important to read the MD&A in conjunction with its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, as well as other publicly available information.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Company is a self-administered and self-managed Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) in the business of owning, leasing, acquiring, redeveloping, developing and managing shopping centers. As of September 30, 2022, the Company’s portfolio consisted of 122 shopping centers (including 19 shopping centers owned through unconsolidated joint ventures). At September 30, 2022, the Company owned approximately 28.2 million square feet of gross leasable area (“GLA”) through all its properties (wholly-owned and joint venture). At September 30, 2022, the aggregate occupancy of the Company’s operating shopping center portfolio was 91.4% versus 90.2% at September 30, 2021, on a pro rata basis, and the average annualized base rent per occupied square foot was $19.11 versus $18.44 at September 30, 2021, on a pro rata basis.

The following provides an overview of the Company’s key financial metrics (see Non-GAAP Financial Measures described later in this section) (in thousands, except per share amounts):

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the increase in net income attributable to common shareholders, as compared to the prior-year period, was primarily attributable to higher gain on sale of wholly-owned and joint venture assets, higher operating results driven by base rent growth at existing assets, the net impact of property acquisitions and the write-off of preferred share original issuance costs in 2021, partially offset by lower fee income from joint ventures and Retail Value Inc. (“RVI”).

In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized COVID-19 as a pandemic, and it continues to spread throughout the United States and other countries across the world. Beginning in mid-March 2020, federal, state and local governments took various actions to limit the spread of COVID-19, including ordering the temporary closure of non-essential businesses (which included many of the Company’s tenants) and imposing significant social distancing guidelines and restrictions on the continued operations of essential businesses and the subsequent reopening of non-essential businesses. The Company continues to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on its business and will take additional steps as needed in order to protect the health and safety of its workforce.

The Company’s collection rates continued to improve throughout 2021 reaching at or near pre-pandemic levels by year-end 2021. The Company's tenants, including tenants previously on the cash basis of accounting, are paying their monthly rent in a manner consistent with periods prior to the COVID-19 pandemic and have repaid deferred rents relating to prior periods. Rental income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $1.9 million of prior-period net revenue at SITE Centers’ share, primarily from cash basis tenants and related reserve adjustments.

Company Activity

The growth opportunities within the Company’s core property operations include rental rate increases, continued lease-up of the portfolio, and the adaptation of existing site plans and square footage to generate higher blended rental rates and operating cash flows. Additional growth opportunities include external acquisition investments and tactical redevelopment. Management intends to use retained cash flow, proceeds from the sale of lower growth assets and proceeds from equity offerings and debt financings to fund capital expenditures relating to new leasing activity, acquisitions and tactical redevelopment activity.

17


Year-to-date transaction and investment highlights for the Company through October 21, 2022, include the following:

Acquired 14 shopping centers for an aggregate purchase price of $301.1 million, including Artesia Village (Scottsdale, Arizona), Shops at Boca Center (Boca Raton, Florida), Shoppes of Crabapple (Alpharetta, Georgia), La Fiesta Square and Lafayette Mercantile (Lafayette, California), Shops at Tanglewood (Houston, Texas), Boulevard Marketplace, Fairfax Marketplace and Fairfax Pointe (Fairfax, Virginia), Parkwood Shops (Atlanta, Georgia), Chandler Center (Chandler, Arizona), Shops at Power and Baseline (Mesa, Arizona), Northsight Plaza (Scottsdale, Arizona) and Broadway Center (Tempe, Arizona).
Acquired its joint venture partner’s 80% interest in Casselberry Commons (Casselberry, Florida) for $35.6 million ($44.5 million at 100%).
Sold two wholly-owned shopping centers and one parcel at a wholly-owned shopping center in addition to two unconsolidated shopping centers for an aggregate sales price of $98.4 million or $65.6 million at the Company’s share. In addition, the DDRM Joint Venture sold 13 assets for an aggregate sales price of $387.6 million ($77.5 million at the Company's share) with $225.0 million of mortgage debt repaid upon closing.
Sold its 20% interest in the SAU Joint Venture to its partner based on a gross asset value of $155.7 million (at 100%) and its 50% interest in Lennox Town Center to its partner based on a gross asset value of $77.0 million (at 100%).
Amended and restated its $950 million revolving credit facility to extend the maturity date to June 2026 (subject to two six-month extension options). The Company amended its $100 million term loan to extend the maturity date to June 2027 and change the interest rate benchmark from LIBOR to SOFR. Also, in June 2022, the Company drew an additional $100.0 million on the term loan facility with total borrowings aggregating $200.0 million at September 30, 2022. As of October 21, 2022, the Company no longer maintains any indebtedness having an interest rate determined by reference to the LIBOR benchmark. The Company also executed a swap for the refinanced $200.0 million unsecured term loan to a fixed rate of 3.8% through the loan’s maturity in June 2027.
Repurchased 1.6 million of its common shares in open market transactions at an aggregate cost of $20.0 million, or $12.74 per share.
Settled 2.2 million common shares which were offered and sold on a forward basis in 2021 under its $250 million continuous equity program, resulting in gross proceeds of $35.1 million. In the second quarter of 2022, the Company sold 0.2 million common shares resulting in gross proceeds of $3.2 million.

Company Operational Highlights

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company completed the following operational activities:

Leased approximately 4.2 million square feet of GLA, including 178 new leases and 340 renewals for a total of 518 leases. At December 31, 2021, the Company had 339 leases expiring in 2022, with an average base rent per square foot of $20.31, on a pro rata basis. The Company has addressed substantially all of its remaining 2022 lease expirations;
For the comparable leases executed in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company generated positive leasing spreads on a pro rata basis of 20.0% for new leases and 6.0% for renewals. Leasing spreads are a key metric in real estate, representing the percentage increase of rental rates on new and renewal leases over rental rates on existing leases, though leasing spreads exclude consideration of the amount of capital expended in connection with new leasing activity. The Company’s leasing spread calculation includes only those deals that were executed within one year of the date the prior tenant vacated, in addition to other factors that limit comparability and as a result, is a useful benchmark to compare the average annualized base rent of expiring leases with the comparable executed market rental rates;
The Company’s total portfolio average annualized base rent per square foot increased to $19.11 at September 30, 2022, on a pro rata basis, as compared to $18.33 at December 31, 2021 and $18.44 at September 30, 2021, primarily due to the impact of acquisitions and new leases that commenced in the first nine months of 2022;
The aggregate occupancy of the Company’s operating shopping center portfolio was 91.4% at September 30, 2022, on a pro rata basis, as compared to 90.0% at December 31, 2021 and 90.2% at September 30, 2021 and
For new leases executed during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company expended a weighted-average cost of tenant improvements and lease commissions estimated at $7.31 per rentable square foot, on a pro rata basis, over

18


the lease term, as compared to $8.56 per rentable square foot in 2021. The Company generally does not expend a significant amount of capital on lease renewals.

Recoveries from tenants were approximately 78.1% and 77.7% of operating expenses and real estate taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
(3)
Primarily relates to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on rent collections, including the impact of lease modification accounting and tenants on the cash basis of accounting due to collectability concerns. The net amount reported as income was primarily attributable to rental income paid in each respective year from tenants on the cash basis of accounting and related reserve adjustments, which related to amounts (including deferred rents) originally owed in 2020 and 2021.
(B)
In 2022, Fee and Other Income was primarily earned from the Company's unconsolidated joint ventures. The decrease as compared to 2021 primarily relates to lower fee revenue from RVI and joint ventures as a result of assets sales, which trend is expected to continue in future periods. As of September 30, 2022, RVI does not own any remaining real estate investments. The management agreement with RVI in effect as of January 1, 2022, includes a reduced asset management fee to effectuate a wind-up of its operations. In 2022, the DDRM Joint Venture sold 15 assets. The Company expects that the DDRM Joint Venture may sell additional assets in the future.

Changes in the number of assets under management, or the fee structures applicable to such arrangements, will adversely impact the amount of revenue recorded in future periods. The Company’s other joint venture partners may also elect to terminate their joint venture arrangements with the Company in connection with a change in investment strategy or otherwise.

The increase in net income attributable to SITE Centers, as compared to the prior-year period, was primarily attributable to higher gain on sale of wholly-owned and joint venture assets, higher operating results driven by base rent growth at existing assets and the net impact of property acquisitions, partially offset by lower fee income from joint ventures and RVI.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Funds from Operations and Operating Funds from Operations

Definition and Basis of Presentation

The Company believes that Funds from Operations (“FFO”) and Operating FFO, both non-GAAP financial measures, provide additional and useful means to assess the financial performance of REITs. FFO and Operating FFO are frequently used by the real estate industry, as well as securities analysts, investors and other interested parties, to evaluate the performance of REITs. The Company also believes that FFO and Operating FFO more appropriately measure the core operations of the Company and provide benchmarks to its peer group.

FFO excludes GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate and real estate investments, which assume that the value of real estate assets diminishes ratably over time. Historically, however, real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions, and many companies use different depreciable lives and methods. Because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization unique to real estate and gains and losses from property dispositions, it can provide a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, interest costs and acquisition, disposition and development activities. This provides a perspective of the Company’s financial performance not immediately apparent from net income determined in accordance with GAAP.

FFO is generally defined and calculated by the Company as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), adjusted to exclude (i) preferred share dividends, (ii) gains and losses from disposition of real estate property and related investments, which are presented net of taxes, (iii) impairment charges on real estate property and related investments, (iv) gains and losses from changes in control and (v) certain non-cash items. These non-cash items principally include real property depreciation and amortization of intangibles, equity income (loss) from joint ventures and equity income (loss) from non-controlling interests and adding the Company’s proportionate share of FFO from its unconsolidated joint ventures and non-controlling interests, determined on a consistent basis. The Company’s calculation of FFO is consistent with the definition of FFO provided by NAREIT.

The Company believes that certain charges, income and gains recorded in its operating results are not comparable or reflective of its core operating performance. Operating FFO is useful to investors as the Company removes non-comparable charges, income and gains to analyze the results of its operations and assess performance of the core operating real estate portfolio. As a result, the Company also computes Operating FFO and discusses it with the users of its financial statements, in addition to other measures such as net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP and FFO. Operating FFO is generally defined and calculated by the Company as FFO excluding certain charges, income and gains that management believes are not comparable and indicative of the results of the Company’s operating real estate portfolio. Such adjustments include write-off of preferred share original issuance costs, gains/losses on the early extinguishment of debt, certain transaction fee income, transaction costs and other restructuring type costs. The disclosure of these adjustments is regularly requested by users of the Company’s financial statements.

The adjustment for these charges, income and gains may not be comparable to how other REITs or real estate companies calculate their results of operations, and the Company’s calculation of Operating FFO differs from NAREIT’s definition of FFO. Additionally, the Company provides no assurances that these charges, income and gains are non-recurring. These charges, income and gains could be reasonably expected to recur in future results of operations.

These measures of performance are used by the Company for several business purposes and by other REITs. The Company uses FFO and/or Operating FFO in part (i) as a disclosure to improve the understanding of the Company’s operating results among the

23


investing public, (ii) as a measure of a real estate asset company’s performance, (iii) to influence acquisition, disposition and capital investment strategies and (iv) to compare the Company’s performance to that of other publicly traded shopping center REITs.

For the reasons described above, management believes that FFO and Operating FFO provide the Company and investors with an important indicator of the Company’s operating performance. They provide recognized measures of performance other than GAAP net income, which may include non-cash items (often significant). Other real estate companies may calculate FFO and Operating FFO in a different manner.

Management recognizes the limitations of FFO and Operating FFO when compared to GAAP’s net income. FFO and Operating FFO do not represent amounts available for dividends, capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments and uncertainties. Management does not use FFO or Operating FFO as an indicator of the Company’s cash obligations and funding requirements for future commitments, acquisitions or development activities. Neither FFO nor Operating FFO represents cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, and neither is necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. Neither FFO nor Operating FFO should be considered an alternative to net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. FFO and Operating FFO are simply used as additional indicators of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that to further understand its performance, FFO and Operating FFO should be compared with the Company’s reported net income (loss) and considered in addition to cash flows determined in accordance with GAAP, as presented in its consolidated financial statements. Reconciliations of these measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measure of net income (loss) have been provided below.

The increase in FFO for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to the prior-year period, was primarily attributable to higher operating results driven by base rent growth at existing assets and the net impact of property acquisitions and lower general and administrative expenses due to the mark-to-market adjustment on certain PRSUs settled in 2021, partially offset by lower management fees and the write-off of preferred share original issuance costs in 2021. The change in Operating FFO primarily was due to positive operating results, partially offset by lower fee income.

Net Operating Income and Same Store Net Operating Income

Definition and Basis of Presentation

The Company uses Net Operating Income (“NOI”), which is a non-GAAP financial measure, as a supplemental performance measure. NOI is calculated as property revenues less property-related expenses. The Company believes NOI provides useful information to investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level and, when compared across periods, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs and acquisition and disposition activity on an unleveraged basis.

The Company also presents NOI information on a same store basis, or Same Store Net Operating Income (“SSNOI”). The Company defines SSNOI as property revenues less property-related expenses, which exclude straight-line rental income (including reimbursements) and expenses, lease termination income, management fee expense, fair market value of leases and expense recovery adjustments. SSNOI includes assets owned in comparable periods (15 months for quarter comparisons). In addition, SSNOI excludes all non-property and corporate level revenue and expenses. Other real estate companies may calculate NOI and SSNOI in a different manner. The Company believes SSNOI at its effective ownership interest provides investors with additional information regarding the operating performances of comparable assets because it excludes certain non-cash and non-comparable items as noted above. SSNOI is frequently used by the real estate industry, as well as securities analysts, investors and other interested parties, to evaluate the performance of REITs.

25


SSNOI is not, and is not intended to be, a presentation in accordance with GAAP. SSNOI information has its limitations as it excludes any capital expenditures associated with the re-leasing of tenant space or as needed to operate the assets. SSNOI does not represent amounts available for dividends, capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments and uncertainties. Management does not use SSNOI as an indicator of the Company’s cash obligations and funding requirements for future commitments, acquisitions or development activities. SSNOI does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. SSNOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. A reconciliation of NOI and SSNOI to their most directly comparable GAAP measure of net income (loss) is provided below.

SSNOI for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 included uncollectible revenue of $1.9 million as compared to $8.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, due to a decrease in the amount of net revenues received from tenants related to prior periods primarily from cash basis tenants and related reserve adjustments. The decrease in prior period cash receipts was offset by increases in rents and recoveries primarily attributable to sequential increases in occupancy for same-store assets.

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES

The Company periodically evaluates opportunities to issue and sell additional debt or equity securities, obtain credit facilities from lenders or repurchase or refinance long-term debt as part of its overall strategy to further strengthen its financial position. The Company remains committed to monitoring liquidity and the duration of its indebtedness and to maintaining prudent leverage levels in an effort to manage its overall risk profile.

The Company’s consolidated and unconsolidated debt obligations generally require monthly or semi-annual payments of principal and/or interest over the term of the obligation. While the Company currently believes it has several viable sources to obtain capital and fund its business, including capacity under its Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below), no assurance can be provided

26


that these obligations will be refinanced or repaid as currently anticipated. Any new debt financings may also entail higher rates of interest than the indebtedness being refinanced, which could have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations.

The Company has historically accessed capital sources through both the public and private markets. Acquisitions and redevelopments are generally financed through cash provided from operating activities, the Revolving Credit Facility, mortgages assumed, secured debt, unsecured debt, common and preferred equity offerings, joint venture capital and asset sales. Total consolidated debt outstanding was $1.8 billion at September 30, 2022, compared to $1.7 billion at December 31, 2021.

The Company had an unrestricted cash balance of $20.9 million at September 30, 2022 and an $80.0 million outstanding balance on its Revolving Credit Facility, and accordingly, availability under the Revolving Credit Facility of $870.0 million (subject to satisfaction of applicable borrowing conditions). The Company has no remaining debt maturing in 2022. The Company has $87.2 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes maturing in 2023. At September 30, 2022, the Company had $35.3 million aggregate principal amount of consolidated mortgage debt scheduled to mature in 2023, of which $15.7 million was repaid in October 2022. At September 30, 2022, the DDRM Joint Venture has approximately $23.2 million of mortgage debt outstanding at the Company’s share maturing in July 2023, which has a one-year extension option subject to certain conditions. As of September 30, 2022, the Company did not have any indebtedness outstanding having an interest rate determined by reference to LIBOR. As of September 30, 2022, the Company anticipates that it has approximately $25 million to be incurred on its pipeline of identified redevelopment projects. The Company declared a common share dividend of $0.39 per share in the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The Company believes it has sufficient liquidity to operate its business at this time.

Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan

The Company maintains an unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of financial institutions and J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) that provides for borrowings of up to $950 million, which limit may be increased to $1.45 billion provided that existing or new lenders agree to provide incremental commitments. The Revolving Credit Facility matures in June 2026 subject to two six-month options to extend the maturity to June 2027 at the Company's option (subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions). The Company’s borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at variable rates at the Company’s election, based on either (i) the SOFR rate plus a spread (0.95% at September 30, 2022) or (ii) the alternative base rate plus a spread (0% at September 30, 2022). The Revolving Credit Facility also provides for an annual facility fee, which was 20 basis points on the entire facility at September 30, 2022. The specified spreads and facility fee vary depending on the Company’s long-term senior unsecured debt ratings from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”), S&P Global Ratings (“S&P”) and Fitch Investor Services Inc. (“Fitch”) (or their respective successors). The Revolving Credit Facility also features a sustainability-linked pricing component whereby the applicable interest rate margin can be adjusted by one or two basis points if the Company meets certain sustainability performance targets.

The Company also maintains a $200 million unsecured term loan with a syndicate of financial institutions and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (the “Term Loan”), that bears interest at variable rates, based on the Company’s long-term senior unsecured debt ratings, equal to (i) the SOFR rate plus a spread (1.05% at September 30, 2022) or (ii) the alternative base rate plus a spread (0.0% at September 30, 2022). The Term Loan matures in June 2027. The Company may increase the principal amount of the Term Loan in the future to up to $800 million in the aggregate provided that existing or new lenders are identified to provide additional loan commitments. The Term Loan also features a sustainability-linked pricing component whereby the applicable interest rate margin can be adjusted by one to two basis points if the Company meets certain sustainability performance targets. The covenants governing the Term Loan are substantially identical to those governing the Revolving Credit Facility.

In late June 2022, the Company utilized the Term Loan’s delayed draw feature to borrow an additional $100.0 million on the Term Loan. As a result, the aggregate principal amount outstanding on the Term Loan was $200.0 million at September 30, 2022. In August 2022, the Company entered into a $200 million Swap to effectively convert the Term Loan to a fixed rate of 3.8% through the loan’s maturity in June 2027.

The Revolving Credit Facility, the Term Loan and the indentures under which the Company’s senior and subordinated unsecured indebtedness are, or may be, issued contain certain financial and operating covenants including, among other things, leverage ratios and debt service coverage and fixed charge coverage ratios, as well as limitations on the Company’s ability to incur secured and unsecured indebtedness, sell all or substantially all of the Company’s assets and engage in certain mergers and acquisitions. These credit facilities and indentures also contain customary default provisions including the failure to make timely payments of principal and interest payable thereunder, the failure to comply with the Company’s financial and operating covenants and the failure of the Company or its majority-owned subsidiaries (i.e., entities in which the Company has a greater than 50% interest) to pay, when due, certain indebtedness in excess of certain thresholds beyond applicable grace and cure periods. In the event the Company’s lenders or note holders declare a default, as defined in the applicable agreements governing the debt, the Company may be unable to obtain further funding and/or an acceleration of any outstanding borrowings may occur. As of September 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all of its financial covenants in the agreements governing its debt. Although the Company believes

27


it will continue to operate in compliance with these covenants, if the Company were to violate these covenants, the Company may be subject to higher finance costs and fees or accelerated maturities.

Consolidated Indebtedness – as of September 30, 2022

As discussed above, the Company is committed to maintaining prudent leverage levels and may utilize proceeds from equity offerings or the sale of properties or other investments to repay additional debt. These sources of funds could be affected by various risks and uncertainties. No assurance can be provided that the Company’s debt obligations will be refinanced or repaid as currently anticipated. See Item 1A. Risk Factors in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

The Company continually evaluates its debt maturities and, based on management’s assessment, believes it has viable financing and refinancing alternatives. The Company has sought to manage its debt maturities through executing a strategy to extend debt duration, increase liquidity, maintain prudent leverage and improve the Company’s credit profile with a focus of lowering the Company's balance sheet risk and cost of capital.

Unconsolidated Joint Ventures’ Mortgage Indebtedness – as of September 30, 2022

The Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures had aggregate outstanding indebtedness to third parties of $0.5 billion and $1.0 billion at September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Such mortgages are generally non-recourse to the Company and its partners; however, certain mortgages may have recourse to the Company and its partners in certain limited situations, such as misappropriation of funds, impermissible transfer, environmental contamination and material misrepresentation. The outstanding indebtedness of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures at September 30, 2022, which matures in the subsequent 13-month period (i.e., through October 2023), is $115.8 million ($23.2 million at the Company’s share). All of this amount is attributable to the DDRM Joint Venture and the Company expects the joint venture to repay the indebtedness with proceeds from asset sales or to exercise the option to extend the loan's maturity date by one year.

No assurance can be provided that these obligations will be refinanced or repaid as currently anticipated. Similar to SITE Centers, the Company’s joint ventures experienced a reduction in rent collections, beginning in the second quarter of 2020, as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Any future deterioration in rent collection may cause one or more of these joint ventures to be unable to refinance maturing obligations or satisfy applicable covenants, financial tests or debt service requirements or loan maturity extension conditions in the future, thereby allowing the mortgage lender to assume control of property cash flows, limit distributions of cash to joint venture members, declare a default, increase the interest rate or accelerate the loan’s maturity. In addition, rising interest rates may adversely impact the ability of the Company's joint ventures to sell assets at attractive prices in order to repay indebtedness.

Dividend Distribution

The Company declared common and preferred cash dividends of $91.9 million and $84.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company intends to distribute at least 100% of ordinary taxable income in the form of common and preferred dividends with respect to the year ending December 31, 2022 in order to maintain compliance with REIT requirements and in order to not incur federal income taxes (excluding federal income taxes applicable to its taxable REIT subsidiary activities).

The Company declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.13 per common share for each of the first three quarters of 2022. The Board of Directors of the Company intends to monitor the Company’s dividend policy in order to maintain sufficient liquidity for operating and in order to maximize the Company’s free cash flow while still adhering to REIT payout requirements.

SITE Centers’ Equity

In March 2022, the Company settled 2.2 million common shares, which were offered and sold on a forward basis in 2021 under its $250 million continuous equity program, resulting in gross proceeds of $35.1 million. In the second quarter of 2022, the Company sold 201,800 common shares at a weighted-average price of $16.03 per share before issuance costs generating gross proceeds of $3.2 million. At October 21, 2022, the Company had approximately $211.7 million available for the future offering of common shares under this program.

In the third quarter of 2022, the Company repurchased 1.6 million of its common shares in open market transactions at an aggregate cost of $20.0 million, or $12.74 per share. In November 2018, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a common share repurchase program. Under the terms of the program, the Company may purchase up to a maximum value of $100 million of its common shares. Through October 21, 2022, the Company had repurchased 6.7 million of its common shares under this program in open market transactions at an aggregate cost of approximately $77.9 million, or $11.66 per share.

SOURCES AND USES OF CAPITAL

Strategic Transaction Activity

The Company remains committed to maintaining sufficient liquidity, managing debt duration and maintaining prudent leverage levels in an effort to manage its overall risk profile. Equity offerings, debt financings, asset sales and cash flow from operations continue to represent a potential source of proceeds to be used to achieve these objectives.

Equity Transactions

In the third quarter of 2022, the Company repurchased 1.6 million of its common shares in open market transactions at an aggregate cost of $20.0 million, or $12.74 per share.

In March 2022, the Company settled 2.2 million common shares which were offered and sold on a forward basis in 2021 under its $250 million continuous equity program, resulting in gross proceeds of $35.1 million. In the second quarter of 2022, the Company sold 201,800 common shares, generating gross proceeds of $3.2 million.

Acquisitions

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company acquired 14 assets for an aggregate purchase price of $301.1 million: Chandler Center (Chandler, Arizona); Shops at Power and Baseline (Mesa, Arizona); Northsight Plaza (Scottsdale, Arizona); Broadway Center (Tempe, Arizona); Artesia Village (Scottsdale, Arizona); La Fiesta Square and Lafayette Mercantile (Lafayette, California); Shops at Boca Center (Boca Raton, Florida); Shoppes of Crabapple (Alpharetta, Georgia); Parkwood Shops (Atlanta, Georgia); Shops at Tanglewood (Houston, Texas) and Boulevard Marketplace, Fairfax Marketplace and Fairfax Pointe (Fairfax, Virginia).

The Company also acquired its joint venture partner’s 80% equity interest in Casselberry Commons (Casselberry, Florida) owned by the DDRM Joint Venture for $35.6 million ($44.5 million at 100%). This transaction resulted in a Gain on Change in Control of Interests of $3.3 million.

29


Dispositions

In the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company sold two wholly-owned shopping centers and one parcel at a wholly-owned shopping center in addition to two unconsolidated shopping centers generating proceeds totaling $98.4 million, of which the Company’s share was $65.6 million. In addition, in the third quarter of 2022, the DDRM Joint Venture sold 13 shopping centers for an aggregate sales price of $387.6 million ($77.5 million at the Company's share) with the related mortgage debt of $225.0 million repaid upon closing.

In the second quarter of 2022, the Company sold its 20% interest in the SAU Joint Venture to its partner, the State of Utah, based on a gross asset value of $155.7 million (at 100%). In addition, the Company sold its 50% interest in Lennox Town Center to its partner based on a gross asset value of $77.0 million (at 100%). These transactions resulted in a Gain on Sale of Interests of $42.2 million.

Changes in investment strategies for assets may impact the Company’s hold-period assumptions for those properties. The disposition of certain assets could result in a loss or impairment recorded in future periods. The Company evaluates all potential sale opportunities taking into account the long-term growth prospects of the assets, the use of proceeds and the impact to the Company’s balance sheet, in addition to the impact on operating results.

Redevelopment Opportunities

One key component of the Company’s long-term strategic plan will be the evaluation of additional tactical redevelopment potential within the portfolio, particularly as it relates to the efficient use of the underlying real estate. The Company will generally commence construction on redevelopment projects only after substantial tenant leasing has occurred. At September 30, 2022, the Company anticipates that it has approximately $25 million to be incurred on its pipeline of identified redevelopment projects.

Redevelopment Projects

As part of its strategy to expand, improve and re-tenant various properties, at September 30, 2022, the Company had approximately $60 million in construction in progress in various active consolidated redevelopment and other projects on a net basis. The Company’s major redevelopment projects are typically substantially complete within two years of the construction commencement date. Redevelopment projects placed into service in 2022 were completed at a cost of approximately $322 per square foot.

CAPITALIZATION

At September 30, 2022, the Company’s capitalization consisted of $1.8 billion of debt, $175.0 million of preferred shares and $2.3 billion of market equity (market equity is defined as common shares and OP Units outstanding multiplied by $10.71, the closing price of the Company’s common shares on the New York Stock Exchange on September 30, 2022). The closing price of the Company’s common shares on the New York Stock Exchange was $15.44 at September 30, 2021. At September 30, 2022 and 2021,

30


the Company’s total debt consisted of $1.7 billion and $1.6 billion, respectively, of fixed-rate debt and $0.1 billion and $0.2 billion, respectively, of variable-rate debt. At September 30, 2022, the fixed-rate debt includes $200.0 million of variable-rate debt that had been effectively swapped to a fixed rate through the use of interest rate derivative contracts.

Management’s strategy is to maintain access to the capital resources necessary to manage the Company’s balance sheet and to repay upcoming maturities. Accordingly, the Company may seek to obtain funds through additional debt or equity financings and/or joint venture capital in a manner consistent with its intention to operate with a conservative debt capitalization policy and to reduce the Company’s cost of capital by maintaining an investment grade rating with Moody’s, S&P and Fitch. A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities, as it may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the rating organization. Each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. The Company may not be able to obtain financing on favorable terms, or at all, which may negatively affect future ratings.

The Company’s credit facilities and the indentures under which the Company’s senior and subordinated unsecured indebtedness are, or may be, issued contain certain financial and operating covenants, including, among other things, debt service coverage and fixed charge coverage ratios, as well as limitations on the Company’s ability to incur secured and unsecured indebtedness, sell all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, engage in certain mergers and acquisitions and make distribution to its shareholders. Although the Company intends to operate in compliance with these covenants, if the Company were to violate these covenants, the Company may be subject to higher finance costs and fees or accelerated maturities. In addition, certain of the Company’s credit facilities and indentures permit the acceleration of maturity in the event certain other debt of the Company is in default or has been accelerated. Foreclosure on mortgaged properties or an inability to refinance existing indebtedness would have a negative impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND OTHER COMMITMENTS

The Company has no remaining consolidated debt maturing in 2022. As of October 21, 2022, the Company has $87.2 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes and $19.6 million of consolidated secured mortgage debt maturing in 2023. The Company expects to fund future maturities from utilization of its Revolving Credit Facility, proceeds from asset sales and other investments, cash flow from operations and/or additional debt or equity financings. No assurance can be provided that these obligations will be repaid as currently anticipated or refinanced.

Other Guaranties

In conjunction with the redevelopment of shopping centers, the Company had entered into commitments with general contractors aggregating approximately $30.1 million for its consolidated properties at September 30, 2022. These obligations, composed principally of construction contracts, are generally due within 12 to 24 months, as the related construction costs are incurred, and are expected to be financed through operating cash flow, asset sales or borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. These contracts typically can be changed or terminated without penalty.

The Company routinely enters into contracts for the maintenance of its properties. These contracts typically can be canceled upon 30 to 60 days’ notice without penalty. At September 30, 2022, the Company had purchase order obligations, typically payable within one year, aggregating approximately $7.7 million related to the maintenance of its properties and general and administrative expenses.

ECONOMIC CONDITIONS

The Company continues to believe there is retailer demand for quality real estate locations within well-positioned shopping centers and continues to see demand from a broad range of tenants for its space, despite growing uncertainty and increasing e‑commerce distribution. The Company has experienced strong momentum in new lease discussions and renewal negotiations with tenants. The Company executed new leases and renewals aggregating approximately 3.5 million square feet of space for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, on a pro rata basis. Although there may be some additional disruption among existing tenants due to inflationary pressures, supply chain impacts, labor shortages and capital markets volatility, the Company believes that recent strong leasing volumes are attributable to the location of the Company’s portfolio in suburban, high household income communities and to its national tenants’ strong financial positions and increasing emphasis and reliance on physical store locations to improve the spread and efficiency of purchases agnostic of channel.

The Company benefits from a diversified tenant base, with only one tenant whose annualized rental revenue equals or exceeds 3% of the Company’s annualized consolidated revenues plus the Company’s proportionate share of unconsolidated joint venture revenues (TJX Companies at 5.8%). Other significant national tenants generally have relatively strong financial positions, have outperformed other retail categories over time and the Company believes remain well-capitalized. Historically these national tenants have provided a stable revenue base, and the Company believes that they will continue to provide a stable revenue base going forward, given the long-term nature of these leases. The majority of the tenants in the Company’s shopping centers provide day-to-day

31


consumer necessities with a focus on value and convenience, versus discretionary items, which the Company believes will enable many of its tenants to outperform under a variety of economic conditions. The Company recognizes the risks posed by current economic conditions but believes that the position of its portfolio and the general diversity and credit quality of its tenant base should enable it to successfully navigate through a potentially challenging economic environment. The Company has relatively little reliance on overage or percentage rents generated by tenant sales performance.

The Company believes that its shopping center portfolio is well positioned, as evidenced by its recent leasing activity, historical property income growth and consistent growth in average annualized base rent per occupied square foot. Historical occupancy has generally ranged from 89% to 96% since the Company’s initial public offering in 1993. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the shopping center portfolio occupancy, on a pro rata basis, was 91.4% and 90.0%, respectively, and the total portfolio average annualized base rent per occupied square foot, on a pro rata basis, was $19.11 and $18.33, respectively. The Company’s portfolio was impacted by tenant bankruptcies and closures in 2020, primarily due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the Company expects to expend significant amounts of capital in coming periods in connection with recently executed leases to backfill these closures. Although the per square foot cost of leasing capital expenditures has been predominantly consistent with the Company’s historical trends, the high volume of the Company’s recent leasing activity will cause aggregate leasing capital expenditure levels to remain elevated. The weighted-average cost of tenant improvements and lease commissions estimated to be incurred over the expected lease term for new leases executed during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, on a pro rata basis, was $7.31 and $8.56 per rentable square foot, respectively. The Company generally does not expend a significant amount of capital on lease renewals.

Beginning in March 2020, the retail sector was significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Though the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on tenant operations varied by tenant category, local conditions and applicable government mandates, a significant number of the Company’s tenants experienced a reduction in sales and foot traffic, and many tenants were forced to limit their operations or close their businesses for a period of time. The Company worked with tenants to maximize the collection of unpaid 2020 rents by offering rent deferment on a case-by-case basis often in exchange for concessions in the form of tenant extensions of lease terms, the relaxation of leasing restrictions and co-tenancy provisions and, in some cases, alterations of control areas allowing for future redevelopment of the shopping center. The Company’s collection rates showed significant improvements in 2021 and the Company’s tenants, including cash basis tenants, are paying their monthly rent in a manner consistent with the period prior to the COVID-19 pandemic and have repaid deferred rents relating to prior periods. As of September 30, 2022, the majority of rent deferral arrangements for tenants that are not accounted for on the cash basis have been repaid. Any new surges in contagion or new COVID‑19 variants could adversely impact the Company's ability to lease space and collect rents. Certain tenant categories remain especially vulnerable to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including movie theaters, fitness centers and local restaurants. For additional risks relating to the COVID-19 pandemic, see Item 1A. Risk Factors in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Although disruptions in rent collections stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic have subsided, inflation, labor shortages, supply chain disruptions and global capital markets volatility continue to pose risks to the U.S. economy, the Company’s tenants and business. Inflationary pressures and rising interest rates could result in reductions in consumer spending and retailer profitability which could impact the Company’s ability to grow rents and tenant demand for new and existing store locations. Regardless of accelerating inflation levels, base rent under most of the Company’s long-term anchor leases will remain constant (subject to tenants’ exercise of renewal options at pre-negotiated rent increases) until the expiration of their lease terms. While many of these leases require tenants to pay their share of shopping center operating expenses (including common area maintenance, real estate tax and insurance expenses), the Company’s ability to collect the passed-through expense increases to tenants is dependent on their ability to absorb and pay these increases. Inflation may also impact other aspects of the Company’s operating costs, including employee retention costs, the cost to complete redevelopments and build-outs of recently leased vacancies and interest rate costs relating to variable rate loans and refinancing of fixed-rate indebtedness. Increasing interest rates or capital availability constraints may also adversely impact the transaction market, asset values and the Company's ability to buy or sell properties. While the Company has not been significantly impacted by any of these items to date, no assurances can be provided that these inflationary pressures will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business in the future.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

MD&A should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report. Historical results and percentage relationships set forth in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, including trends that might appear, should not be taken as indicative of future operations. The Company considers portions of this information to be “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, both as amended, with respect to the Company’s expectations for future periods. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements related to acquisitions (including any related pro forma financial information) and other business development activities, future capital expenditures, financing sources and availability and the effects of environmental and other regulations. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that its expectations will be achieved. For this purpose,

32


any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical fact should be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the foregoing, the words “will,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “expects,” “seeks,” “estimates” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Readers should exercise caution in interpreting and relying on forward-looking statements because such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that are, in some cases, beyond the Company’s control and that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements and that could materially affect the Company’s actual results, performance or achievements. For additional factors that could cause the results of the Company to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements see Item 1A. Risk Factors in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Factors that could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following:

The Company is subject to general risks affecting the real estate industry, including the need to enter into new leases or renew leases on favorable terms to generate rental revenues, and any economic downturn may adversely affect the ability of the Company’s tenants, or new tenants, to enter into new leases or the ability of the Company’s existing tenants to renew their leases at rates at least as favorable as their current rates;
The Company could be adversely affected by changes in the local markets where its properties are located, as well as by adverse changes in national economic and market conditions;
The Company may fail to anticipate the effects on its properties of changes in consumer buying practices, including sales over the internet and the resulting retailing practices and space needs of its tenants, or a general downturn in its tenants’ businesses, which may cause tenants to close stores or default in payment of rent;
The Company is subject to competition for tenants from other owners of retail properties, and its tenants are subject to competition from other retailers and methods of distribution. The Company is dependent upon the successful operations and financial condition of its tenants, in particular its major tenants, and could be adversely affected by the bankruptcy of those tenants;
The Company relies on major tenants, which makes it vulnerable to changes in the business and financial condition of, or demand for its space by, such tenants;
The Company may not realize the intended benefits of acquisition or merger transactions. The acquired assets may not perform as well as the Company anticipated, or the Company may not successfully integrate the assets and realize improvements in occupancy and operating results. The acquisition of certain assets may subject the Company to liabilities, including environmental liabilities;
The Company may fail to identify, acquire, construct or develop additional properties that produce a desired yield on invested capital, or may fail to effectively integrate acquisitions of properties or portfolios of properties. In addition, the Company may be limited in its acquisition opportunities due to competition, the inability to obtain financing on reasonable terms or any financing at all and other factors;
The Company may fail to dispose of properties on favorable terms, especially in regions experiencing deteriorating economic conditions. In addition, real estate investments can be illiquid, particularly as prospective buyers may experience increased costs of financing or difficulties obtaining financing due to local or global conditions, and could limit the Company’s ability to promptly make changes to its portfolio to respond to economic and other conditions;
The Company may abandon a development or redevelopment opportunity after expending resources if it determines that the opportunity is not feasible due to a variety of factors, including a lack of availability of construction financing on reasonable terms, the impact of the economic environment on prospective tenants’ ability to enter into new leases or pay contractual rent, or the inability of the Company to obtain all necessary zoning and other required governmental permits and authorizations;
The Company may not complete development or redevelopment projects on schedule as a result of various factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, such as weather, labor conditions, governmental approvals, material shortages or general economic downturn, resulting in limited availability of capital, increased debt service expense and construction costs and decreases in revenue;
The Company’s financial condition may be affected by required debt service payments, the risk of default, restrictions on its ability to incur additional debt or to enter into certain transactions under its Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan and other documents governing its debt obligations and the risk of downgrades from debt rating services. In addition, the

33


Company may encounter difficulties in obtaining permanent financing or refinancing existing debt. Borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facility are subject to certain representations and warranties and customary events of default, including any event that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business or financial condition;
Changes in interest rates could adversely affect the market price of the Company’s common shares, its ability to sell properties and prices realized, as well as its performance and cash flow;
Debt and/or equity financing necessary for the Company to continue to grow and operate its business may not be available or may not be available on favorable terms;
Disruptions in the financial markets could affect the Company’s ability to obtain financing on reasonable terms and have other adverse effects on the Company and the market price of the Company’s common shares;
The Company is subject to complex regulations related to its status as a REIT and would be adversely affected if it failed to qualify as a REIT;
The Company must make distributions to shareholders to continue to qualify as a REIT, and if the Company must borrow funds to make distributions, those borrowings may not be available on favorable terms or at all;
Joint venture investments may involve risks not otherwise present for investments made solely by the Company, including the possibility that a partner or co-venturer may become bankrupt, may at any time have interests or goals different from those of the Company and may take action contrary to the Company’s instructions, requests, policies or objectives, including the Company’s policy with respect to maintaining its qualification as a REIT. In addition, a partner or co‑venturer may not have access to sufficient capital to satisfy its funding obligations to the joint venture or may seek to terminate the joint venture, resulting in a loss to the Company of property revenues and management fees. The partner could cause a default under the joint venture loan for reasons outside the Company’s control. Furthermore, the Company could be required to reduce the carrying value of its equity investments, including preferred investments, if a loss in the carrying value of the investment is realized;
The Company’s decision to dispose of real estate assets, including undeveloped land and construction in progress, would change the holding period assumption in the undiscounted cash flow impairment analyses, which could result in material impairment losses and adversely affect the Company’s financial results;
The outcome of pending or future litigation, including litigation with tenants or joint venture partners, may adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and financial condition;
Property damage, expenses related thereto, and other business and economic consequences (including the potential loss of revenue) resulting from extreme weather conditions or natural disasters in locations where the Company owns properties may adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and financial condition;
Sufficiency and timing of any insurance recovery payments related to damages and lost revenues from extreme weather conditions or natural disasters may adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and financial condition;
The Company and its tenants could be negatively affected by the impacts of pandemics (including the COVID-19 pandemic) and other public health crises;
The Company is subject to potential environmental liabilities;
The Company may incur losses that are uninsured or exceed policy coverage due to its liability for certain injuries to persons, property or the environment occurring on its properties;
The Company could incur additional expenses to comply with or respond to claims under the Americans with Disabilities Act or otherwise be adversely affected by changes in government regulations, including changes in environmental, zoning, tax and other regulations;
Changes in accounting standards or other standards may adversely affect the Company’s business;
The Company’s Board of Directors, which regularly reviews the Company’s business strategy and objectives, may change the Company’s strategic plan based on a variety of factors and conditions, including in response to changing market conditions and

34


The Company and its vendors could sustain a disruption, failure or breach of their respective networks and systems, including as a result of cyber-attacks, which could disrupt the Company’s business operations, compromise the confidentiality of sensitive information and result in fines or penalties.

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company’s primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk. The Company’s debt, excluding unconsolidated joint venture debt and adjusted to reflect the $200.0 million of variable-rate debt that SOFR was swapped to a fixed rate of 2.75% at September 30, 2022 is summarized as follows:

The Company intends to use retained cash flow, proceeds from asset sales, equity and debt financing and variable-rate indebtedness available under its Revolving Credit Facility to repay indebtedness and fund capital expenditures at the Company’s shopping centers. Thus, to the extent the Company incurs additional variable-rate indebtedness or needs to refinance existing fixed-rate indebtedness in a rising interest rate environment, its exposure to increases in interest rates in an inflationary period could increase. The Company does not believe, however, that increases in interest expense will significantly impact the Company’s distributable cash flow given the Company’s outstanding debt maturity profile.

The interest rate risk on a portion of the Company’s variable-rate debt has been mitigated through the use of an interest rate swap agreement with major financial institutions. At September 30, 2022, the interest rate on $200.0 million of the Company’s consolidated variable-rate debt was swapped to a fixed rate. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to the swaps. The Company believes it mitigates its credit risk by entering into swaps with major financial institutions.

The carrying value of the Company’s fixed-rate debt is adjusted to include the $200.0 million of variable-rate debt that was swapped to a fixed rate at September 30, 2022. The fair value of the Company's fixed-rate debt is adjusted to include (i) the swap reflected in the carrying value and (ii) the Company’s proportionate share of the joint ventures' fixed-rate debt. An estimate of the effect of a 100 basis-point increase at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, is summarized as follows (in millions):

The sensitivity to changes in interest rates of the Company’s fixed-rate debt was determined using a valuation model based upon factors that measure the net present value of such obligations that arise from the hypothetical estimate as discussed above. A 100 basis-point increase in short-term market interest rates on variable-rate debt at September 30, 2022, would result in an increase in interest expense of approximately $0.6 million for the Company and $0.1 million representing the Company’s proportionate share of

35


the joint ventures’ interest expense relating to variable-rate debt outstanding for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The estimated increase in interest expense for the year does not give effect to possible changes in the daily balance of the Company’s or joint ventures’ outstanding variable-rate debt.

The Company and its joint ventures intend to continually monitor and actively manage interest costs on their variable-rate debt portfolio and may enter into swap positions based on market fluctuations. In addition, the Company believes it has the ability to obtain funds through additional equity and/or debt offerings and joint venture capital. Accordingly, the cost of obtaining such protection agreements versus the Company’s access to capital markets will continue to be evaluated. The Company has not entered, and does not plan to enter, into any derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had no other material exposure to market risk.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), conducted an evaluation, pursuant to Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on their evaluation as required, the CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Securities Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and were effective as of the end of such period to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its CEO and CFO, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

During the three months ended September 30, 2022, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to various legal proceedings, which, taken together, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company is also subject to a variety of legal actions for personal injury or property damage arising in the ordinary course of its business, most of which are covered by insurance. While the resolution of all matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the final outcome of such legal proceedings and claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, financial position or results of operations.
