Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Segments	Segments At December 31, 2020, the Company had three reportable operating segments: Core Portfolio, Funds and Structured Financing. The Company’s chief operating decision maker may review operational and financial data on a property-level basis and does not differentiate properties on a geographical basis for purposes of allocating resources or capital.
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of the Company and its investments in partnerships and limited liability companies in which the Company has control in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 810 “Consolidation.” The ownership interests of other investors in these entities are recorded as noncontrolling interests. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in entities for which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over, 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 losses) of these entities are included in consolidated net (loss) income.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The most significant assumptions and estimates relate to the valuation of real estate, depreciable lives, revenue recognition and the collectability of notes receivable and rents receivable. Application of these estimates and assumptions requires the exercise of judgment as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates. Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts with regard to right-of-use assets – operating leases, lease liabilities – operating leases and credit losses have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.
Reclassifications	Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts with regard to right-of-use assets – operating leases, lease liabilities – operating leases and credit losses have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.
Real Estate	Real Estate Land, buildings, and personal property are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Improvements and significant renovations that extend the useful life of the properties are capitalized, while replacements, maintenance, and repairs that do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are expensed as incurred. Real estate under development includes costs for significant property expansion and development. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the assets as follows: Buildings and improvements Useful lives of 40 years for buildings and 15 years for improvements Furniture and fixtures Useful lives, ranging from five years to 10 years Tenant improvements Shorter of economic life or lease terms Purchase Accounting – Upon acquisitions of real estate, the Company assesses the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities (including land, buildings and improvements, and identified intangibles such as above- and below-market leases and acquired in-place leases) and acquired liabilities in accordance with ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations” and ASC Topic 350 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other,” and allocates the acquisition price based on these assessments. When acquisitions of properties do not meet the criteria for business combinations, no goodwill is recorded and acquisition costs are capitalized. The Company assesses fair value of its tangible assets acquired and assumed liabilities based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information at the measurement period. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions that may affect the property. In determining the value of above- and below-market leases, the Company estimates the present value difference between contractual rent obligations and estimated market rate of leases at the time of the transaction. To the extent there were fixed-rate options at below-market rental rates, the Company included these along with the current term below-market rent in arriving at the fair value of the acquired leases. The discounted difference between contract and market rents is being amortized to rental income over the remaining applicable lease term, inclusive of any option periods. In determining the value of acquired in-place leases, the Company considers market conditions at the time of the transaction and values the costs to execute similar leases during the expected lease-up period from vacancy to existing occupancy, including carrying costs. The value assigned to in-place leases and tenant relationships is amortized over the estimated remaining term of the leases. If a lease were to be terminated prior to its scheduled expiration, all unamortized costs relating to that lease would be written off. The Company estimates the value of any assumption of mortgage debt based on market conditions at the time of acquisitions including prevailing interest rates, terms and ability to obtain financing for a similar asset. Mortgage debt discounts or premiums are amortized into interest expense over the remaining term of the related debt instrument. Real Estate Under Development – The Company capitalizes certain costs related to the development of real estate. Interest and real estate taxes incurred during the period of the construction, expansion or development of real estate are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated useful life of the building. The Company will cease the capitalization of these costs when construction activities are substantially completed and the property is available for occupancy by tenants, but no later than one year from the completion of major construction activity at which time the project is placed in service and depreciation commences. If the Company suspends substantially all activities related to development of a qualifying asset, the Company will cease capitalization of interest and taxes until activities are resumed. Real Estate Impairment – The Company reviews its real estate, real estate under development and right-of-use assets for impairment when there is an event or a change in circumstances that indicates that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. In cases where the Company does not expect to recover its carrying costs on properties held for use, the Company reduces its carrying costs to fair value. The determination of anticipated undiscounted cash flows is inherently subjective, requiring significant estimates made by management, and considers the most likely expected course of action at the balance sheet date based on current plans, intended holding periods and available market information. If the Company is evaluating the potential sale of an asset, the undiscounted future cash flows analysis is probability-weighted based upon management’s best estimate of the likelihood of the alternative courses of action as of the balance sheet date. Such cash flow projections consider factors such as expected future operating income, trends and prospects, as well as the effects of demand, competition and other factors. If an impairment is indicated, an impairment loss is recognized based on the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its estimated fair value. See Note 8 for information about impairment charges recorded during the periods presented.
Dispositions of Real Estate	Dispositions of Real Estate – The Company recognizes property sales in accordance with ASC Topic 970 “Real Estate.” Sales of real estate include the sale of land, operating properties and investments in real estate joint ventures. Beginning January 1, 2018, gains on sale of investment properties are recognized, and the related real estate derecognized, when the Company has satisfied its performance obligations by transferring control of the property. Typically, the timing of payment and satisfaction of performance obligations occur simultaneously on the disposition date upon transfer of the property’s ownership.
Real Estate Held for Sale	Real Estate Held for Sale – The Company generally considers assets to be held for sale when it has entered into a contract to sell the property, all material due diligence requirements have been satisfied, and management believes it is probable that the disposition will occur within one year. Assets that are classified as held for sale are recorded at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell.
Notes Receivable	Notes Receivable Notes receivable include certain loans that are held for investment and are collateralized by real estate-related investments and may be subordinate to other senior loans. Notes receivable are reported net of allowance for credit loss and are recorded at stated principal amounts or at initial investment less accretive yield for loans purchased at a discount, which is accreted over the life of the note. The Company defers loan origination and commitment fees, net of origination costs, and amortizes them over the term of the related loan. The Company evaluates the collectability of both principal and interest based upon an assessment of the underlying collateral value to determine whether it is impaired. Allowance for credit loss represents management’s estimate of future losses based on national historical economic loss rates for similar obligations, management’s estimate of future economic impacts and factors specific to the borrower. Certain of the Company’s loans are considered “collateral dependent” in that settlement of the amount is likely to be achieved by obtaining access to the collateral (e.g. notes in default). The same valuation techniques are used to value the collateral for such collateral dependent instruments as those used to determine the fair value of real estate investments for impairment purposes. Given the small number of notes outstanding, the Company believes the characteristics of its notes are not sufficiently similar to allow an evaluation as a group for credit loss allowance. As such, all of the Company’s notes are evaluated individually for this purpose. Interest income on performing notes is accrued as earned. A note is placed on non-accrual status when, based upon current information and events, it is probable that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. Income accrual is generally suspended for loans when recovery of income and principal becomes doubtful. Interest received is then recorded as a reduction in the outstanding principal balance until the accrual is resumed when it is probable that the Company will be able to collect amounts due according to the contractual terms of the notes.
Investments in and Advances to Unconsolidated Joint Ventures	Investments in and Advances to Unconsolidated Joint Ventures Some of the Company’s joint ventures obtain non-recourse third-party financing on their property investments, contractually limiting the Company’s exposure to losses. The Company recognizes income for distributions in excess of its investment where there is no recourse to the Company and no intention or obligation to contribute additional capital. For investments in which there is recourse to the Company or an obligation or intention to contribute additional capital exists, distributions in excess of the investment are recorded as a liability. When characterizing distributions from equity investees within the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows, all distributions received are first applied as returns on investment to the extent there are cumulative earnings related to the respective investment and are classified as cash inflows from operating activities. If cumulative distributions are in excess of cumulative earnings, distributions are considered return of investment. In such cases, the distribution is classified as cash inflows from investing activities. To the extent that the Company’s carrying basis in an unconsolidated affiliate is different from the basis reflected at the joint venture level, the basis difference is amortized over the life of the related assets and included in the Company’s share of equity in (loss) earnings of unconsolidated affiliates the joint venture. The Company periodically reviews its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures for other-than-temporary losses in investment value. Any decline that is not expected to be recovered based on the underlying assets of the investment, is considered other than temporary and an impairment charge is recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the investment. During the periods presented there were no impairment charges related to the Company’s investments in unconsolidated joint ventures.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained at financial institutions and, at times, balances may exceed the limits insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
Restricted Cash	Restricted Cash Restricted cash consists principally of cash held for real estate taxes, construction costs, property maintenance, insurance, minimum occupancy and property operating income requirements at specific properties as required by certain loan agreements.
Deferred Costs	Deferred Costs External fees and costs paid in the successful negotiation of leases are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. External fees and costs incurred in connection with obtaining financing are deferred and amortized as a component of interest expense over the term of the related debt obligation on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method. Effective January 1, 2019, internal leasing costs are no longer being capitalized as discussed further below under ASU 2016-02.
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities	Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities The Company measures derivative instruments at fair value and records them as assets or liabilities, depending on its rights or obligations under the applicable derivative contract. Derivatives that are not designated as hedges must be adjusted to fair value through earnings. For a derivative designated and that qualified as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative is recognized in Other comprehensive (loss) income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings. Although the Company's derivative contracts are subject to master netting arrangements, which serve as credit mitigants to both the Company and its counterparties under certain situations, the Company does not net its derivative fair values or any existing rights or obligations to cash collateral on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. For the periods presented, all of the Company's derivatives qualified and were designated as cash flow hedges, and none of its derivatives were deemed ineffective.
NonControlling Interests	Noncontrolling Interests Noncontrolling interests represent the portion of equity that the Company does not own in those entities it consolidates. The Company identifies its noncontrolling interests separately within the equity section on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The amounts of consolidated net earnings attributable to the Company and to the noncontrolling interests are presented separately on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Noncontrolling interests also include amounts related to common and preferred OP Units issued to unrelated third parties in connection with certain property acquisitions. In addition, the Company periodically issues common OP Units and LTIPs to certain employees of the Company under its share-based incentive program. Unit holders generally have the right to redeem their units for Common Shares subject to blackout and other limitations. Common and restricted OP Units are included in the caption Noncontrolling interest within the equity section on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable	Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable Effective January 1, 2019, and as further described below, the Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842. Pursuant to ASC 842, the Company has made an accounting policy election to not separate the non-lease components from its leases, such as common area maintenance, and has accounted for each of its leases as a single lease component. In addition, the Company has elected to account only for those taxes that it pays on behalf of the tenant as reimbursable costs and will not account for those taxes paid directly by the tenant. Minimum rents from tenants are recognized using the straight-line method over the non-cancelable lease term of the respective leases. Lease termination fees are recognized upon the effective termination of a tenant’s lease when the Company has no further obligations under the lease. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, unbilled rents receivable relating to the straight-lining of rents of $41.4 million and $48.4 million, respectively, are included in Rents Receivable, net on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Certain of these leases also provide for percentage rents based upon the level of sales achieved by the tenant. Percentage rent is recognized in the period when the tenants’ sales breakpoint is met. In addition, leases typically provide for the reimbursement to the Company of real estate taxes, insurance and other property operating expenses. These reimbursements are recognized as revenue in the period the related expenses are incurred. The Company assesses the collectability of its accounts receivable related to tenant revenues. The Company applies the guidance under ASC 842 in assessing its rents receivable: if collection of rents under specific operating leases is not probable, then the Company recognizes the lesser of that lease’s rental income on a straight-line basis or cash received, plus variable rents as earned. Once this initial assessment is completed, the Company applies a general reserve, as provided under ASC 450-20, if applicable. Rents receivable at December 31, 2020 and 2019 are shown net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $45.4 million and $11.4 million, respectively. Rental income for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 are reported net of adjustments of $46.8 million, $4.4 million and $2.5 million respectively, to allowance for doubtful accounts reflecting additional reserves, net of write-offs and recoveries, during 2020 due to the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic (Note 1).
Stock-Based Compensation	Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation expense for all equity-classified stock-based compensation awards is based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with current accounting guidance for share-based payments. The Company recognizes these compensation costs for only those shares or units expected to vest on a straight-line or graded-vesting basis, as appropriate, over the requisite service period of the award. The Company includes stock-based compensation within general and administrative expense on the consolidated statements of operations.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes The Company has made an election to be taxed, and believes it qualifies, as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). To maintain REIT status for Federal income tax purposes, the Company is generally required to distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to its shareholders as well as comply with certain other income, asset and organizational requirements as defined in the Code. Accordingly, the Company is generally not subject to Federal corporate income tax to the extent that it distributes 100% of its REIT taxable income each year. In connection with the REIT Modernization Act, the Company is permitted to participate in certain activities and still maintain its qualification as a REIT, so long as these activities are conducted in entities that elect to be treated as taxable subsidiaries under the Code. As such, the Company is subject to Federal and state income taxes on the income from these activities. The Tax Cut and Jobs Act was enacted in December 2017 and is generally effective for tax years beginning in 2018. This new legislation did not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and allows non-corporate shareholders to deduct a portion of the Company’s dividends. Although it may qualify for REIT status for federal income tax purposes, the Company is subject to state or local income or franchise taxes in certain jurisdictions in which some of its properties are located. In addition, taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through the Company’s Taxable REIT Subsidiary (“TRS”) is fully subject to federal, state and local income taxes. The Company accounts for TRS income taxes under the liability method as required by ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Under the liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the temporary differences between the GAAP basis and tax basis of the TRS income, assets and liabilities. The recently enacted Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) temporarily relaxes existing limitations on the use and carryback of net operating losses incurred by our TRSs. Net operating losses generated in taxable years beginning in 2018, 2019 or 2020 can be carried back to the preceding 5 years. In addition, TRSs can fully offset their taxable income for taxable years beginning before 2021 using net operating loss carrybacks and carryforwards and can fully offset their taxable income for taxable years beginning after 2020 using pre-2018 net operating loss carryforwards. Any post-2017 net operating loss carryforwards can be used to offset up to 80% of taxable income after using pre-2018 net operating loss carryforwards. In 2020, the Company carried back $3.1 million of net operating losses, resulting in a refund of $1.0 million. The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent it believes it is more likely than not that these assets will be realized. In 2019 and 2020, the Company recorded valuation allowances to reduce deferred tax assets when it determined that an uncertainty existed regarding their realization, which increased the provision for income taxes. In making such determination, the Company considered all available positive and negative evidence, including forecasts of future taxable income, the reversal of other existing temporary differences, available net operating loss carry-forwards, tax planning strategies and recent results of operations. Several of these considerations require assumptions and significant judgment about the forecasts of future taxable income and are consistent with the plans and estimates that the Company is utilizing to manage its business. To the extent facts and circumstances change in the future, further adjustments to the valuation allowances may be required.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements Credit Losses In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses. ASU 2016-13 introduced a new model for estimating credit losses for certain types of financial instruments, including loans receivable, held-to-maturity debt securities, and net investments in direct financing leases, amongst other financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 also modified the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and expands the disclosure requirements regarding an entity’s assumptions, models, and methods for estimating the allowance for losses. In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326) which provided relief to certain entities adopting ASU 2016-13. The amendments accomplish those objectives by providing entities with an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option in Subtopic 825-10, applied on an instrument-by-instrument basis for eligible instruments, that are within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, upon adoption of Topic 326. The fair value option election does not apply to held-to-maturity debt securities, therefore, the Company did not elect to apply this option. ASU 2016-13, and its related ASUs have been adopted by the Company effective January 1, 2020. Retrospective adjustments were applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to distributions in excess of accumulated earnings in shareholders equity. Upon implementation of ASU 2016-13 and other related guidance, the Company recorded loan loss allowances related to its Structured Financing portfolio (Note 3) of $0.4 million with a cumulative effect adjustment to distributions in excess of accumulated earnings. The Company recorded a credit loss allowance of $0.3 million during year ended December 31, 2020. Effective January 1, 2020, the Company has implemented a new methodology for computing credit losses for its Structured Financing portfolio under ASC 326 (as further described in Note 3), however, the Company has not made any changes to its accounting policies for accounting for credit losses for its receivables arising from operating leases. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses. This ASU modifies ASU 2016-13. The amendment clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses – Measure at Amortized Cost. Instead, impairment of receivables arising from operating leases should be accounted for in accordance with Topic 842, Leases. ASU 2018-19 was adopted by the Company effective January 1, 2020. The Company already accounted for its lease receivables utilizing the guidance of ASC 842 and did not make any adjustments related to the implementation of ASU 2018-19. Other Accounting Topics In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments, which provides updates and clarifications to three previously-issued ASUs: 2016-01 Financial Instruments — Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities; 2016-13 Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, described above; and 2017-12 Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities, which the Company early adopted effective January 1, 2018. The updates related to ASU 2019-04 were adopted by the Company effective January 1, 2020 with no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement which removes, modifies, and adds certain disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements in ASC 820. This guidance was adopted on January 1, 2020 and did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-03, Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments. The amendments in this Update represent changes to clarify or improve the Codification, were adopted effective January 1, 2020 and did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)—Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The amendments in this Update apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. Effective in the first quarter of 2020, the Company has elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation and does not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. On April 8, 2020, the FASB issued a Q&A allowing for reporting entities to make an accounting policy election to account for lease concessions related to the effects of COVID-19 consistent with how those concessions would be accounted for under Topic 842, which is as though the enforceable rights and obligations for those concessions existed regardless of whether those enforceable rights and obligations for the concessions explicitly exist in the contract. This election is available for concessions that result in the total cash flows required by the modified contract being substantially the same or less than total cash flows required by the original contract. Effective April 1, 2020, the Company has made the accounting policy election noted above. The Company entered into concession agreements both as lessor and lessee during the year ended December 31, 2020 (Note 1). The Company expects that it will grant further concessions during subsequent periods. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740) Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The amendments in this Update provide guidance for interim period and intra period tax accounting; provide tax accounting guidance for foreign subsidiaries; require that an entity recognize a franchise (or similar) tax that is partially based on income as an income-based tax and account for any incremental amount incurred as a non-income-based tax; as well as other changes to tax accounting. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. As a REIT, the Company usually does not have significant income taxes. Accordingly, the implementation of this guidance is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01 Investments—Equity securities (Topic 321), Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)—Clarifying the Interactions Between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815. The amendments in this Update affect all entities that apply the guidance in Topics 321, 323, and 815 and (i) elect to apply the measurement alternative or (ii) enter into a forward contract or purchase an option to purchase securities that, upon settlement of the forward contract or exercise of the purchased option, would be accounted for under the equity method of accounting. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Currently, the Company does not apply the measurement alternative and does not have any such forward contracts or purchase options. As a result, the implementation of this guidance is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06—Debt with conversion and other options (Subtopic 470-20) and derivatives and hedging—contracts in entity's own equity (Subtopic 815-40)—accounting for convertible instruments and contracts in an entity's own equity. This ASU simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. The ASU simplifies accounting for convertible instruments and simplifies the diluted earnings per share (EPS) calculation in certain areas. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Currently, the Company does not have any such debt instruments and, as a result, the implementation of this guidance is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. During October 2020, the SEC issued new rules modernizing certain Regulation S-K disclosure requirements. The final rule is intended to improve the readability of disclosures, reduce repetition, and eliminate immaterial information, thereby simplifying compliance for registrants and making disclosures more meaningful for investors. These changes will be effective for all filings on or after November 7, 2020. The Company has made minor disclosure changes to the "Business" and "Risk Factors" sections of this Form 10-K. In October 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-08 Codification Improvements to Subtopic 310-20, Receivables—Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs. The amendments in this Update clarify that an entity should reevaluate whether a callable debt security is within the scope of paragraph 310-20-35-33 for each reporting period. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. Early application is not permitted. Currently, the Company does not have any such callable debt securities. As a result, the implementation of this guidance is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) which modifies ASC 848 (ASU 2020-04 discussed above), which was intended to provide relief related to “contracts and transactions that reference LIBOR or a reference rate that is expected to be discontinued as a result of reference rate reform.” ASU 2021-01 expands the scope of ASC 848 to include all affected derivatives and give reporting entities the ability to apply certain aspects of the contract modification and hedge accounting expedients to derivative contracts affected by the discounting transition. ASU 2021-01 also adds implementation guidance to clarify which optional expedients in ASC 848 may be applied to derivative instruments that do not reference LIBOR or a reference rate that is expected to be discontinued, but that are being modified as a result of the discounting transition. Currently, the Company does not have any cleared trades. As a result, the implementation of this guidance is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Lease Intangibles	Upon acquisitions of real estate, the Company assesses the fair value of acquired assets (including land, buildings and improvements, and identified intangibles such as above- and below-market leases, including below-market options and acquired in-place leases) and assumed liabilities. The lease intangibles are amortized over the remaining terms of the respective leases, including option periods where applicable.
(Loss) Earnings Per Common Share	Basic earnings (loss) per Common Share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Common Shareholders by the weighted average Common Shares outstanding (Note 10). During the periods presented, the Company had unvested LTIP Units which provide for non-forfeitable rights to dividend equivalent payments. Accordingly, these unvested LTIP Units are considered participating securities and are included in the computation of basic earnings per Common Share pursuant to the two-class method. Diluted earnings per Common Share reflects the potential dilution of the conversion of obligations and the assumed exercises of securities including the effects of Restricted Share Units issued under the Company’s Share Incentive Plans (Note 13). The effect of such shares is excluded from the calculation of earnings per share when anti-dilutive as indicated in the table below. The effect of the conversion of Common OP Units is not reflected in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share, as they are exchangeable for Common Shares on a one-for-one basis. The income allocable to such units is allocated on this same basis and reflected as noncontrolling interests in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As such, the assumed conversion of these units would have no net impact on the determination of diluted earnings per share.

Organization Consolidation And Presentation Of Financial Statements [Abstract]

At December 31, 2020, the Company had three reportable operating segments: Core Portfolio, Funds and Structured Financing. The Company’s chief operating decision maker may review operational and financial data on a property-level basis and does not differentiate properties on a geographical basis for purposes of allocating resources or capital.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of the Company and its investments in partnerships and limited liability companies in which the Company has control in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 810 “Consolidation.” The ownership interests of other investors in these entities are recorded as noncontrolling interests. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in entities for which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over, 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 losses) of these entities are included in consolidated net (loss) income.

Use of Estimates

GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The most significant assumptions and estimates relate to the valuation of real estate, depreciable lives, revenue recognition and the collectability of notes receivable and rents receivable. Application of these estimates and assumptions requires the exercise of judgment as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts with regard to right-of-use assets – operating leases, lease liabilities – operating leases and credit losses have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.

Reclassifications

Real Estate

Land, buildings, and personal property are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Improvements and significant renovations that extend the useful life of the properties are capitalized, while replacements, maintenance, and repairs that do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are expensed as incurred. Real estate under development includes costs for significant property expansion and development.

Depreciation is computed on the straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Buildings and improvements Useful lives of 40 years for buildings and 15 years for improvements

Furniture and fixtures Useful lives, ranging from five years to 10 years

Tenant improvements Shorter of economic life or lease terms

Purchase Accounting – Upon acquisitions of real estate, the Company assesses the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities (including land, buildings and improvements, and identified intangibles such as above- and below-market leases and acquired in-place leases) and acquired liabilities in accordance with ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations” and ASC Topic 350 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other,” and allocates the acquisition price based on these assessments. When acquisitions of properties do not meet the criteria for business combinations, no goodwill is recorded and acquisition costs are capitalized.

The Company assesses fair value of its tangible assets acquired and assumed liabilities based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information at the measurement period. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions that may affect the property.

In determining the value of above- and below-market leases, the Company estimates the present value difference between contractual rent obligations and estimated market rate of leases at the time of the transaction. To the extent there were fixed-rate options at below-market rental rates, the Company included these along with the current term below-market rent in arriving at the fair value of the acquired leases. The

discounted difference between contract and market rents is being amortized to rental income over the remaining applicable lease term, inclusive of any option periods.

In determining the value of acquired in-place leases, the Company considers market conditions at the time of the transaction and values the costs to execute similar leases during the expected lease-up period from vacancy to existing occupancy, including carrying costs. The value assigned to in-place leases and tenant relationships is amortized over the estimated remaining term of the leases. If a lease were to be terminated prior to its scheduled expiration, all unamortized costs relating to that lease would be written off.

The Company estimates the value of any assumption of mortgage debt based on market conditions at the time of acquisitions including prevailing interest rates, terms and ability to obtain financing for a similar asset. Mortgage debt discounts or premiums are amortized into interest expense over the remaining term of the related debt instrument.

Real Estate Under Development – The Company capitalizes certain costs related to the development of real estate. Interest and real estate taxes incurred during the period of the construction, expansion or development of real estate are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated useful life of the building. The Company will cease the capitalization of these costs when construction activities are substantially completed and the property is available for occupancy by tenants, but no later than one year from the completion of major construction activity at which time the project is placed in service and depreciation commences. If the Company suspends substantially all activities related to development of a qualifying asset, the Company will cease capitalization of interest and taxes until activities are resumed.

Real Estate Impairment – The Company reviews its real estate, real estate under development and right-of-use assets for impairment when there is an event or a change in circumstances that indicates that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. In cases where the Company does not expect to recover its carrying costs on properties held for use, the Company reduces its carrying costs to fair value. The determination of anticipated undiscounted cash flows is inherently subjective, requiring significant estimates made by management, and considers the most likely expected course of action at the balance sheet date based on current plans, intended holding periods and available market information. If the Company is evaluating the potential sale of an asset, the undiscounted future cash flows analysis is probability-weighted based upon management’s best estimate of the likelihood of the alternative courses of action as of the balance sheet date. Such cash flow projections consider factors such as expected future operating income, trends and prospects, as well as the effects of demand, competition and other factors. If an impairment is indicated, an impairment loss is recognized based on the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its estimated fair value. See Note 8 for information about impairment charges recorded during the periods presented.

Dispositions of Real Estate

Dispositions of Real Estate – The Company recognizes property sales in accordance with ASC Topic 970 “Real Estate.” Sales of real estate include the sale of land, operating properties and investments in real estate joint ventures. Beginning January 1, 2018, gains on sale of investment properties are recognized, and the related real estate derecognized, when the Company has satisfied its performance obligations by transferring control of the property. Typically, the timing of payment and satisfaction of performance obligations occur simultaneously on the disposition date upon transfer of the property’s ownership.

Real Estate Held for Sale

Real Estate Held for Sale – The Company generally considers assets to be held for sale when it has entered into a contract to sell the property, all material due diligence requirements have been satisfied, and management believes it is probable that the disposition will occur within one year. Assets that are classified as held for sale are recorded at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell.

Notes Receivable

Notes receivable include certain loans that are held for investment and are collateralized by real estate-related investments and may be subordinate to other senior loans. Notes receivable are reported net of allowance for credit loss and are recorded at stated principal amounts or at initial investment less accretive yield for loans purchased at a discount, which is accreted over the life of the note. The Company defers loan origination and commitment fees, net of origination costs, and amortizes them over the term of the related loan. The Company evaluates the collectability of both principal and interest based upon an assessment of the underlying collateral value to determine whether it is impaired. Allowance for credit loss represents management’s estimate of future losses based on national historical economic loss rates for similar obligations, management’s estimate of future economic impacts and factors specific to the borrower. Certain of the Company’s loans are considered “collateral dependent” in that settlement of the amount is likely to be achieved by obtaining access to the collateral (e.g. notes in default). The same valuation techniques are used to value the collateral for such collateral dependent instruments as those used to determine the fair value of real estate investments for impairment purposes. Given the small number of notes outstanding, the Company believes the characteristics of its notes are not sufficiently similar to allow an evaluation as a group for credit loss allowance. As such, all of the Company’s notes are evaluated individually for this purpose. Interest income on performing notes is accrued as earned. A note is placed on non-accrual status when, based upon current information and events, it is probable that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. Income accrual is generally suspended for loans when recovery of income and principal becomes doubtful. Interest received is then recorded as a reduction in the outstanding principal balance until the accrual is resumed when it is probable that the Company will be able to collect amounts due according to the contractual terms of the notes.

Investments in and Advances to Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

Some of the Company’s joint ventures obtain non-recourse third-party financing on their property investments, contractually limiting the Company’s exposure to losses. The Company recognizes income for distributions in excess of its investment where there is no recourse to the Company and no intention or obligation to contribute additional capital. For investments in which there is recourse to the Company or an obligation or intention to contribute additional capital exists, distributions in excess of the investment are recorded as a liability.

When characterizing distributions from equity investees within the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows, all distributions received are first applied as returns on investment to the extent there are cumulative earnings related to the respective investment and are classified as cash inflows from operating activities. If cumulative distributions are in excess of cumulative earnings, distributions are considered return of investment. In such cases, the distribution is classified as cash inflows from investing activities.

To the extent that the Company’s carrying basis in an unconsolidated affiliate is different from the basis reflected at the joint venture level, the basis difference is amortized over the life of the related assets and included in the Company’s share of equity in (loss) earnings of unconsolidated affiliates the joint venture.

The Company periodically reviews its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures for other-than-temporary losses in investment value. Any decline that is not expected to be recovered based on the underlying assets of the investment, is considered other than temporary and an impairment charge is recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the investment. During the periods presented there were no impairment charges related to the Company’s investments in unconsolidated joint ventures.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained at financial institutions and, at times, balances may exceed the limits insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash consists principally of cash held for real estate taxes, construction costs, property maintenance, insurance, minimum occupancy and property operating income requirements at specific properties as required by certain loan agreements.

Deferred Costs

External fees and costs paid in the successful negotiation of leases are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. External fees and costs incurred in connection with obtaining financing are deferred and amortized as a component of interest expense over the term of the related debt obligation on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method. Effective January 1, 2019, internal leasing costs are no longer being capitalized as discussed further below under ASU 2016-02.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company measures derivative instruments at fair value and records them as assets or liabilities, depending on its rights or obligations under the applicable derivative contract. Derivatives that are not designated as hedges must be adjusted to fair value through earnings. For a derivative designated and that qualified as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative is recognized in Other comprehensive (loss) income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings.

Although the Company's derivative contracts are subject to master netting arrangements, which serve as credit mitigants to both the Company and its counterparties under certain situations, the Company does not net its derivative fair values or any existing rights or obligations to cash collateral on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. For the periods presented, all of the Company's derivatives qualified and were designated as cash flow hedges, and none of its derivatives were deemed ineffective.

NonControlling Interests

Noncontrolling Interests

Noncontrolling interests represent the portion of equity that the Company does not own in those entities it consolidates. The Company identifies its noncontrolling interests separately within the equity section on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The amounts of

consolidated net earnings attributable to the Company and to the noncontrolling interests are presented separately on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Noncontrolling interests also include amounts related to common and preferred OP Units issued to unrelated third parties in connection with certain property acquisitions. In addition, the Company periodically issues common OP Units and LTIPs to certain employees of the Company under its share-based incentive program. Unit holders generally have the right to redeem their units for Common Shares subject to blackout and other limitations. Common and restricted OP Units are included in the caption Noncontrolling interest within the equity section on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable

Effective January 1, 2019, and as further described below, the Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842. Pursuant to ASC 842, the Company has made an accounting policy election to not separate the non-lease components from its leases, such as common area maintenance, and has accounted for each of its leases as a single lease component. In addition, the Company has elected to account only for those taxes that it pays on behalf of the tenant as reimbursable costs and will not account for those taxes paid directly by the tenant. Minimum rents from tenants are recognized using the straight-line method over the non-cancelable lease term of the respective leases. Lease termination fees are recognized upon the effective termination of a tenant’s lease when the Company has no further obligations under the lease. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, unbilled rents receivable relating to the straight-lining of rents of $41.4 million and $48.4 million, respectively, are included in Rents Receivable, net on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Certain of these leases also provide for percentage rents based upon the level of sales achieved by the tenant. Percentage rent is recognized in the period when the tenants’ sales breakpoint is met. In addition, leases typically provide for the reimbursement to the Company of real estate taxes, insurance and other property operating expenses. These reimbursements are recognized as revenue in the period the related expenses are incurred.

The Company assesses the collectability of its accounts receivable related to tenant revenues. The Company applies the guidance under ASC 842 in assessing its rents receivable: if collection of rents under specific operating leases is not probable, then the Company recognizes the lesser of that lease’s rental income on a straight-line basis or cash received, plus variable rents as earned. Once this initial assessment is completed, the Company applies a general reserve, as provided under ASC 450-20, if applicable. Rents receivable at December 31, 2020 and 2019 are shown net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $45.4 million and $11.4 million, respectively. Rental income for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 are reported net of adjustments of $46.8 million, $4.4 million and $2.5 million respectively, to allowance for doubtful accounts reflecting additional reserves, net of write-offs and recoveries, during 2020 due to the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic (Note 1).

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense for all equity-classified stock-based compensation awards is based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with current accounting guidance for share-based payments. The Company recognizes these compensation costs for only those shares or units expected to vest on a straight-line or graded-vesting basis, as appropriate, over the requisite service period of the award. The Company includes stock-based compensation within general and administrative expense on the consolidated statements of operations.

Income Taxes

The Company has made an election to be taxed, and believes it qualifies, as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). To maintain REIT status for Federal income tax purposes, the Company is generally required to distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to its shareholders as well as comply with certain other income, asset and organizational requirements as defined in the Code. Accordingly, the Company is generally not subject to Federal corporate income tax to the extent that it distributes 100% of its REIT taxable income each year.

In connection with the REIT Modernization Act, the Company is permitted to participate in certain activities and still maintain its qualification as a REIT, so long as these activities are conducted in entities that elect to be treated as taxable subsidiaries under the Code. As such, the Company is subject to Federal and state income taxes on the income from these activities.

The Tax Cut and Jobs Act was enacted in December 2017 and is generally effective for tax years beginning in 2018. This new legislation did not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and allows non-corporate shareholders to deduct a portion of the Company’s dividends.

Although it may qualify for REIT status for federal income tax purposes, the Company is subject to state or local income or franchise taxes in certain jurisdictions in which some of its properties are located. In addition, taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through the Company’s Taxable REIT Subsidiary (“TRS”) is fully subject to federal, state and local income taxes.

The Company accounts for TRS income taxes under the liability method as required by ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Under the liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the temporary differences between the GAAP basis and tax basis of the TRS income, assets and liabilities.

The recently enacted Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) temporarily relaxes existing limitations on the use and carryback of net operating losses incurred by our TRSs. Net operating losses generated in taxable years beginning in 2018, 2019 or 2020 can be carried back to the preceding 5 years. In addition, TRSs can fully offset their taxable income for taxable years beginning before 2021 using net operating loss carrybacks and carryforwards and can fully offset their taxable income for taxable years beginning after 2020 using pre-2018 net operating loss carryforwards. Any post-2017 net operating loss carryforwards can be used to offset up to 80% of taxable income after using pre-2018 net operating loss carryforwards. In 2020, the Company carried back $3.1 million of net operating losses, resulting in a refund of $1.0 million.

The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent it believes it is more likely than not that these assets will be realized. In 2019 and 2020, the Company recorded valuation allowances to reduce deferred tax assets when it determined that an uncertainty existed regarding their realization, which increased the provision for income taxes. In making such determination, the Company considered all available positive and negative evidence, including forecasts of future taxable income, the reversal of other existing temporary differences, available net operating loss carry-forwards, tax planning strategies and recent results of operations. Several of these considerations require assumptions and significant judgment about the forecasts of future taxable income and are consistent with the plans and estimates that the Company is utilizing to manage its business. To the extent facts and circumstances change in the future, further adjustments to the valuation allowances may be required.

Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses. ASU 2016-13 introduced a new model for estimating credit losses for certain types of financial instruments, including loans receivable, held-to-maturity debt securities, and net investments in direct financing leases, amongst other financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 also modified the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and expands the disclosure requirements regarding an entity’s assumptions, models, and methods for estimating the allowance for losses.

In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326) which provided relief to certain entities adopting ASU 2016-13. The amendments accomplish those objectives by providing entities with an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option in Subtopic 825-10, applied on an instrument-by-instrument basis for eligible instruments, that are within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, upon adoption of Topic 326. The fair value option election does not apply to held-to-maturity debt securities, therefore, the Company did not elect to apply this option.

ASU 2016-13, and its related ASUs have been adopted by the Company effective January 1, 2020. Retrospective adjustments were applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to distributions in excess of accumulated earnings in shareholders equity. Upon implementation of ASU 2016-13 and other related guidance, the Company recorded loan loss allowances related to its Structured Financing portfolio (Note 3) of $0.4 million with a cumulative effect adjustment to distributions in excess of accumulated earnings. The Company recorded a credit loss allowance of $0.3 million during year ended December 31, 2020. Effective January 1, 2020, the Company has implemented a new methodology for computing credit losses for its Structured Financing portfolio under ASC 326 (as further described in Note 3), however, the Company has not made any changes to its accounting policies for accounting for credit losses for its receivables arising from operating leases.

In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses. This ASU modifies ASU 2016-13. The amendment clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses – Measure at Amortized Cost. Instead, impairment of receivables arising from operating leases should be accounted for in accordance with Topic 842, Leases. ASU 2018-19 was adopted by the Company effective January 1, 2020. The Company already accounted for its lease receivables utilizing the guidance of ASC 842 and did not make any adjustments related to the implementation of ASU 2018-19.

Other Accounting Topics

In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments, which provides updates and clarifications to three previously-issued ASUs: 2016-01 Financial Instruments — Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities; 2016-13 Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, described above; and 2017-12 Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities, which the Company early adopted effective January 1, 2018. The updates related to ASU 2019-04 were adopted by the Company effective January 1, 2020 with no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Disclosure Framework — Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement which removes, modifies, and adds certain disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements in ASC 820. This guidance was adopted on January 1, 2020 and did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-03, Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments. The amendments in this Update represent changes to clarify or improve the Codification, were adopted effective January 1, 2020 and did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)—Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The amendments in this Update apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. Effective in the first quarter of 2020, the Company has elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation and does not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

On April 8, 2020, the FASB issued a Q&A allowing for reporting entities to make an accounting policy election to account for lease concessions related to the effects of COVID-19 consistent with how those concessions would be accounted for under Topic 842, which is as though the enforceable rights and obligations for those concessions existed regardless of whether those enforceable rights and obligations for the concessions explicitly exist in the contract. This election is available for concessions that result in the total cash flows required by the modified contract being substantially the same or less than total cash flows required by the original contract. Effective April 1, 2020, the Company has made the accounting policy election noted above. The Company entered into concession agreements both as lessor and lessee during the year ended December 31, 2020 (Note 1). The Company expects that it will grant further concessions during subsequent periods.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740) Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The amendments in this Update provide guidance for interim period and intra period tax accounting; provide tax accounting guidance for foreign subsidiaries; require that an entity recognize a franchise (or similar) tax that is partially based on income as an income-based tax and account for any incremental amount incurred as a non-income-based tax; as well as other changes to tax accounting. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. As a REIT, the Company usually does not have significant income taxes. Accordingly, the implementation of this guidance is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01 Investments—Equity securities (Topic 321), Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)—Clarifying the Interactions Between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815. The amendments in this Update affect all entities that apply the guidance in Topics 321, 323, and 815 and (i) elect to apply the measurement alternative or (ii) enter into a forward contract or purchase an option to purchase securities that, upon settlement of the forward contract or exercise of the purchased option, would be accounted for under the equity method of accounting. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Currently, the Company does not apply the measurement alternative and does not have any such forward contracts or purchase options. As a result, the implementation of this guidance is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06—Debt with conversion and other options (Subtopic 470-20) and derivatives and hedging—contracts in entity's own equity (Subtopic 815-40)—accounting for convertible instruments and contracts in an entity's own equity. This ASU simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. The ASU simplifies accounting for convertible instruments and simplifies the diluted earnings per share (EPS) calculation in certain areas. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Currently, the Company does not have any such debt instruments and, as a result, the implementation of this guidance is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

During October 2020, the SEC issued new rules modernizing certain Regulation S-K disclosure requirements. The final rule is intended to improve the readability of disclosures, reduce repetition, and eliminate immaterial information, thereby simplifying compliance for registrants and making disclosures more meaningful for investors. These changes will be effective for all filings on or after November 7, 2020. The Company has made minor disclosure changes to the "Business" and "Risk Factors" sections of this Form 10-K.

In October 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-08 Codification Improvements to Subtopic 310-20, Receivables—Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs. The amendments in this Update clarify that an entity should reevaluate whether a callable debt security is within the scope of paragraph 310-20-35-33 for each reporting period. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after

December 15, 2020. Early application is not permitted. Currently, the Company does not have any such callable debt securities. As a result, the implementation of this guidance is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) which modifies ASC 848 (ASU 2020-04 discussed above), which was intended to provide relief related to “contracts and transactions that reference LIBOR or a reference rate that is expected to be discontinued as a result of reference rate reform.” ASU 2021-01 expands the scope of ASC 848 to include all affected derivatives and give reporting entities the ability to apply certain aspects of the contract modification and hedge accounting expedients to derivative contracts affected by the discounting transition. ASU 2021-01 also adds implementation guidance to clarify which optional expedients in ASC 848 may be applied to derivative instruments that do not reference LIBOR or a reference rate that is expected to be discontinued, but that are being modified as a result of the discounting transition. Currently, the Company does not have any cleared trades. As a result, the implementation of this guidance is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Lease Intangibles

Upon acquisitions of real estate, the Company assesses the fair value of acquired assets (including land, buildings and improvements, and identified intangibles such as above- and below-market leases, including below-market options and acquired in-place leases) and assumed liabilities. The lease intangibles are amortized over the remaining terms of the respective leases, including option periods where applicable.

(Loss) Earnings Per Common Share

Basic earnings (loss) per Common Share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Common Shareholders by the weighted average Common Shares outstanding (Note 10). During the periods presented, the Company had unvested LTIP Units which provide for non-forfeitable rights to dividend equivalent payments. Accordingly, these unvested LTIP Units are considered participating securities and are included in the computation of basic earnings per Common Share pursuant to the two-class method.

Diluted earnings per Common Share reflects the potential dilution of the conversion of obligations and the assumed exercises of securities including the effects of Restricted Share Units issued under the Company’s Share Incentive Plans (Note 13). The effect of such shares is excluded from the calculation of earnings per share when anti-dilutive as indicated in the table below.

The effect of the conversion of Common OP Units is not reflected in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share, as they are exchangeable for Common Shares on a one-for-one basis. The income allocable to such units is allocated on this same basis and reflected as noncontrolling interests in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As such, the assumed conversion of these units would have no net impact on the determination of diluted earnings per share.
