LEXINGTON REALTY TRUST AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2021 and 2020

(Unaudited and dollars in thousands, except share/unit and per share/unit data)

(1) The Company and Financial Statement Presentation

Lexington Realty Trust (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, except when the context only applies to the parent entity, the “Company”) is a Maryland real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that owns a portfolio of equity investments focused on single-tenant industrial properties.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had ownership interests in approximately 135 consolidated real estate properties, located in 28 states. The properties in which the Company has an interest are primarily net leased to tenants in various industries.

The Company believes it has qualified as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Accordingly, the Company will not be subject to federal income tax, provided that distributions to its shareholders equal at least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined under the Code. The Company is permitted to participate in certain activities from which it was previously precluded in order to maintain its qualification as a REIT, so long as these activities are conducted in entities which elect to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”) under the Code. As such, the TRS are subject to federal income taxes on the income from these activities.

The Company conducts its operations indirectly through (1) property owner subsidiaries, which are single purpose entities, (2) a wholly-owned TRS, Lexington Realty Advisors, Inc. (“LRA”), and (3) joint ventures. Property owner subsidiaries are landlords under leases for properties in which the Company has an interest and/or borrowers under loan agreements secured by properties in which the Company has an interest and lender subsidiaries are lenders under loan agreements where the Company made an investment in a loan asset, but in all cases are separate and distinct legal entities. Each property owner subsidiary is a separate legal entity that maintains separate books and records. The assets and credit of each property owner subsidiary with a property subject to a mortgage loan are not available to creditors to satisfy the debt and other obligations of any other person, including any other property owner subsidiary or any other affiliate. Consolidated entities that are not property owner subsidiaries do not directly own any of the assets of a property owner subsidiary (or the general partner, member or managing member of such property owner subsidiary), but merely hold partnership, membership or beneficial interests therein, which interests are subordinate to the claims of such property owner subsidiary's (or its general partner's, member's or managing member's) creditors.

The financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 have been prepared by the Company in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). 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 normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC on February 18, 2021 (“Annual Report”).

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. The Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with GAAP. The financial statements reflect the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company consolidates the wholly-owned subsidiaries, partnerships and joint ventures which it controls (i) through voting rights or similar rights or (ii) by means other than voting rights if the Company is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity ("VIE"). Entities which the Company does not control and entities which are VIEs in which the Company is not a primary beneficiary are accounted for under appropriate GAAP.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company acquired an 80% interest in each of two joint ventures with developers, which each acquired land parcels to develop industrial properties. The Company determined that the joint ventures are variable interest entities in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance. The Company concluded that it is the primary beneficiary in each of the joint ventures and as such, the joint ventures' operations are consolidated in the Company’s financial statements.

(Unaudited and dollars in thousands, except share/unit and per share/unit data)

In addition, the Company is the primary beneficiary of certain VIEs as it has a controlling financial interest in these entities. Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P. ("LCIF") and ATL Fairburn L.P. ("Fairburn JV"), are consolidated and the Company, as of June 30, 2021, had an approximate 97% and 87% interest, respectively, are VIEs.

The assets of each VIE are only available to satisfy such VIE's respective liabilities. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the VIEs' mortgages and notes payable were non-recourse to the Company. Below is a summary of selected financial data of consolidated VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary included in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

In addition, the Company acquires, from time to time, properties using a reverse like-kind exchange structure pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code (a "reverse 1031 exchange") and, as such, the properties are in the possession of an Exchange Accommodation Titleholder ("EAT") until the reverse 1031 exchange is completed. The EAT is classified as a VIE as it is a “thinly capitalized” entity. The Company consolidates the EAT because it is the primary beneficiary as it has the ability to control the activities that most significantly impact the EAT's economic performance and can collapse the 1031 exchange structure at any time. The assets of the EAT primarily consist of leased property (net real estate and intangibles).

Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes lease revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another systematic and rational basis is more representative of the time pattern in which the use benefit is derived from the leased property. Revenue is recognized on a contractual basis for leases with escalations tied to a consumer price index with no floor. The Company evaluates the collectability of its rental payments and recognizes revenue on a cash basis when the Company believes it is no longer probable that it will receive substantially all of the remaining lease payments. Renewal options in leases with rental terms that are lower than those in the primary term are excluded from the calculation of straight-line rent if the renewals are not reasonably certain. If the Company funds tenant improvements and the improvements are deemed to be owned by the Company, revenue recognition will commence when the improvements are substantially completed and possession or control of the space is turned over to the tenant. If the Company determines that the tenant allowances are lease incentives, the Company commences revenue recognition when possession or control of the space is turned over to the tenant for tenant work to begin. The lease incentive is recorded as a deferred expense and amortized as a reduction of revenue on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. The Company recognizes lease termination fees as rental revenue in the period received and writes off unamortized lease-related intangible and other lease-related account balances, provided there are no further Company obligations under the lease. Otherwise, such fees and balances are recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining obligation period with the termination payments being recorded as a component of rent receivable-deferred on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Use of Estimates. Management has made a number of significant estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses to prepare these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. These estimates and assumptions are based on management's best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment. Management adjusts such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. The most significant estimates made include the recoverability of current and deferred accounts receivable, allocation of property purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the determination of VIEs and which entities should be consolidated, the determination of impairment of long-lived assets and equity method investments, valuation of derivative financial instruments, valuation of awards granted under compensation plans, the determination of the incremental borrowing rate for leases where the Company is the lessee and the useful lives of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Cost Capitalization. The Company capitalizes interest and direct and indirect project costs associated with the initial construction of a property up to the time the property is substantially complete and ready for its intended use within investments in real estate under construction in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition, the Company capitalizes operating costs, including real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, that have been allocated to vacant space based on the square footage of the portion of the building not held available for immediate occupancy during the extended lease-up periods after the construction of the building shell has been completed if costs are being incurred to ready the vacant space for its intended use. If costs and activities incurred to ready the vacant space cease, then cost capitalization is also discontinued until such activities are resumed. Once construction has been completed on a vacant space, project costs are no longer capitalized.

Restricted Cash. Restricted cash is comprised primarily of cash balances held by a qualified intermediary and operating cash reserves held at one property.

Fair Value Measurements. The Company follows the guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("Topic 820"), to determine the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments. Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities; Level 2 - observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and Level 3 - unobservable inputs, which are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as considering counterparty credit risk. The Company has formally elected to apply the portfolio exception within Topic 820 with respect to measuring counterparty risk for all of its derivative transactions subject to master netting arrangements.

The Company estimates the fair value of its real estate assets, including non-consolidated real estate assets, by using income and market valuation techniques. The Company may estimate fair values using market information such as recent sale contracts (Level 2 inputs) or recent sale offers or discounted cash flow models, which primarily rely on Level 3 inputs. The cash flow models include estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specified holding period. These cash flows may include contractual rental revenues, projected future rental revenues and expenses and forecasted tenant improvements and lease commissions based upon market conditions determined through discussion with local real estate professionals, experience the Company has with its other owned properties in such markets and expectations for growth. Capitalization rates and discount rates utilized in these models are estimated by management based upon rates that management believes to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for the respective properties based upon an analysis of factors such as property and tenant quality, geographical location and local supply and demand observations.

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional, applies for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effect of) reference rate reform on financial reporting, in response to concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates, and, particularly, the risk of cessation of LIBOR and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. As of March 31, 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. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.

In July 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-05, Leases (Topic 842): Lessors-Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments, to amend the guidance to provide alternative accounting for sales type and direct finance leases with variable lease payments. The amendments in ASU 2021-05 amend the accounting guidance to allow lessors to classify and account for a lease with variable leases payments that do not depend on a reference index or a rate as an operating lease if certain criteria are met. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 with early adoption permitted. The Company does not currently have any leases that are classified as sales-type or direct finance leases. Therefore, the Company determined that it will apply the amendment on a prospective basis to applicable leases that commence or are modified on or after July 1, 2021.

(2)Earnings Per Share

A portion of the Company's non-vested share-based payment awards are considered participating securities and as such, the Company is required to use the two-class method for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Under the two-class computation method, net losses are not allocated to participating securities unless the holder of the security has a contractual obligation to share in the losses. The non-vested share-based payment awards are not allocated losses as the awards do not have a contractual obligation to share in losses of the Company.

The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:

(4)Dispositions and Impairment

During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company disposed of its interests in various properties for an aggregate gross disposition price of $183,427 and $74,064, respectively, and recognized aggregate gains on sales of properties of $88,645 and $20,998, respectively. Included in the 2020 dispositions is one office property located in Charleston, South Carolina which was conveyed to the lender in forgiveness of the mortgage loan encumbering the property. The balance of the non-recourse mortgage loan was in excess of the value of the property collateral, resulting in a debt satisfaction gain, net of $1,393.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had three properties classified as held for sale because the properties met the criteria included under the held for sale accounting guidance and a sale to a third party within the next 12 months was deemed probable. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had two properties that met the held for sale criteria.

Assets and liabilities of the held for sale properties as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 consisted of the following:

	June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020
Assets:
Real estate, at cost	$	26,915	$	32,629
Real estate, intangible assets	2,535		7,941
Accumulated depreciation and amortization	(14,286)		(24,312)
Rent receivable - deferred	3,720		79
Other	1,387		193
	$	20,271	$	16,530
Liabilities:
Accounts payable and other liabilities	$	1,271	$	790

The Company assesses on a regular basis whether there are any indicators that the carrying value of its real estate assets may be impaired. Potential indicators may include an increase in vacancy at a property, tenant financial instability, change in the estimated holding period of the asset, the potential sale or transfer of the property in the near future and changes in economic conditions. An asset is determined to be impaired if the asset's carrying value is in excess of its estimated fair value and the Company estimates that its cost will not be recovered.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized one impairment charge of $1,617 on a vacant office property located in Houston, Texas. The property was sold in 2020. There were no impairment charges recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

(5)Fair Value Measurements

The following tables present the Company's assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall:

	Balance		Fair Value Measurements Using
Description	June 30, 2021		(Level 1)		(Level 2)		(Level 3)
Interest rate swap liabilities	$	(12,041)	$	—	$	(12,041)	$	—

years, a discount rate of 9.0% and residual capitalization rates ranging from 8.0% to 9.0%. As significant inputs to the models are unobservable, the Company determined that the value determined for these properties falls within Level 3 of the fair value reporting hierarchy.

The majority of the inputs used to value the Company's interest rate swaps fell within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, such as observable market interest rate curves; however, the credit valuation associated with the interest rate swaps utilized Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company determined that the credit valuation adjustment relative to the overall fair value of the interest rate swaps was not significant. As a result, the interest rate swaps were classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The table below sets forth the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments, excluding held for sale assets, as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

	As of June 30, 2021				As of December 31, 2020
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Liabilities
Debt	$	1,459,691	$	1,480,219	$	1,341,242	$	1,368,151

The fair value of the Company's debt is primarily estimated utilizing Level 3 inputs by using a discounted cash flow analysis, based upon estimates of market interest rates, except for the Company's senior notes payable. The Company determines the fair value of its senior notes payable using market prices. The inputs used in determining the fair value of these notes are categorized as Level 1 due to the fact that the Company uses quoted market rates to value these instruments. However, the inputs used in determining the fair value could be categorized as Level 2 if trading volumes are low.

Fair values cannot be determined with precision, may not be substantiated by comparison to quoted prices in active markets and may not be realized upon sale. Additionally, there are inherent uncertainties in any fair value measurement technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates, liquidity risks and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the fair value measurement amounts.

Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable. The Company estimates that the fair value of cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates carrying value due to the relatively short maturity of the instruments.

(6)Investments in Non-Consolidated Entities

Below is a schedule of the Company's investments in non-consolidated entities:

		Percentage Ownership at	Investment Balance as of
Investment		June 30, 2021	June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020

(8)    Derivatives and Hedging Activities

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 type, amount, sources, and duration of its debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the 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 value 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 investments and borrowings.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk. The Company's objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense, to manage its exposure to interest rate movements and therefore manage its cash outflows as it relates to the underlying debt instruments. To accomplish these objectives, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy relating to certain of its variable rate debt instruments. Interest rate 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.

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 (loss) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. The Company did not incur any ineffectiveness during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

During July 2019, the Company entered into four interest rate swap agreements with its counterparties. The swaps were designated as cash flow hedges of the risk of variability attributable to changes in the LIBOR swap rates on its $300,000 LIBOR-indexed variable-rate unsecured term loan. Accordingly, changes in fair value of the swaps are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified to earnings as interest becomes receivable or payable. The swaps expire coterminous with the extended maturity of the term loan in January 2025. During the next 12 months ending June 30, 2022, the Company estimates that an additional $4,841 will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense if the swaps remain outstanding.

The Company's agreements with swap derivatives counterparties contain provisions whereby if the Company defaults on the underlying indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then the Company could also be declared in default of the swap derivative obligation. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had not posted any collateral related to the agreements.

(9)    Lease Accounting

The following is a summary of the Company's accounting for leases as of and during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:

Lessor

Lexington’s lease portfolio as a lessor primarily includes general purpose, single-tenant net-leased industrial and office real estate assets. Most of the Company’s leases require tenants to pay fixed annual rental payments that escalate on an annual basis and variable payments for other operating expenses, such as real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance ("CAM"), and utilities, that are based on the actual expenses incurred.

Certain leases allow for the tenant to renew the lease term upon expiration or earlier. Periods covered by a renewal option are included within the lease term only when renewals are deemed to be reasonably certain. Certain leases allow for the tenant to terminate the lease before the expiration of lease term and certain leases provide the tenant with the right to purchase the leased property at fair market value or a stipulated price upon expiration of the lease term or before.

Accounting guidance under Topic 842 requires the Company to make certain assumptions and judgments in applying the guidance, including determining whether an arrangement includes a lease and determining the lease term when the contract has renewal, purchase or early termination provisions.

The Company analyzes its accounts receivable, customer creditworthiness and current economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the collectability of the lessee's total accounts receivable balance on a lease by lease basis. In addition, tenants in bankruptcy are analyzed and considerations are made in connection with the expected pre-petition and post-petition claims. If a lessee's accounts receivable balance is considered uncollectable, the Company will write-off the receivable balances associated with the lease to rental revenue and cease to recognize lease income, including straight-line rent, unless cash is received. If the Company subsequently determines that it is probable it will collect substantially all of the lessee's remaining lease payments under the lease term; the Company will reinstate the straight-line balance adjusting for the amount related to the period when the lease was accounted for on a cash basis. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company wrote off a deferred rent receivable balance of $615, as a reduction of rental revenue, related to a tenant that dissolved and surrendered its leased premises in an industrial property located in the Columbus, Ohio market.

Certain tenants have been experiencing financial difficulties as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company wrote off an aggregate deferred rent receivable balance of $1,360, as a reduction of rental revenue, related to tenants with rent collectability concerns. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company wrote off an aggregate of $334 and $40, respectively, accounts receivable relating to certain tenants suffering from the current economic conditions.

The Company determined that the lease and non-lease components in its leases are a single lease component, which is, therefore, being recognized as rental revenue in its unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The primary non-lease service is included within rental revenue is CAM services provided as part of the Company’s real estate leases. Topic 842 requires that the Company capitalize, as initial direct costs, only those costs that are incurred due to the execution of a lease. As of June 30, 2020, the Company incurred $29 of costs that were not incremental to the execution of leases, which are included in property operating expenses on its unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company incurred no leasing costs that were not incremental for the execution of leases as of June 30, 2021.

The Company manages the risk associated with the residual value of its leased properties by including contract clauses that make tenants responsible for surrendering the space in good condition upon lease termination, holding a diversified portfolio, and other activities. The Company does not have residual value guarantees on specific properties.

The following table presents the Company’s classification of rental revenue for its operating leases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
Classification	June 30, 2021		June 30, 2020		June 30, 2021		June 30, 2020
Fixed	$	70,630	$	73,374	$	142,572	$	144,639
Variable(1)(2)	9,942		7,720		29,645		15,190
Total	$	80,572	$	81,094	$	172,217	$	159,829

(1)    Primarily comprised of tenant reimbursements.

(2) Variable income contains termination income of $11,827 and $439 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The 2021 termination fee income primarily related to a tenant that terminated its lease at the Company's Durham, New Hampshire industrial property.

Lessee

The Company, as lessee, has ground leases, corporate leases for office space, and office equipment leases. All leases were classified as operating leases as of June 30, 2021. The leases have remaining lease terms of up to 42 years, some of which include options to extend the leases in 5 to 10-year increments for up to 52 years. Renewal periods are included in the lease term only when renewal is deemed to be reasonably certain. The lease term also includes periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise the termination option. The Company measures its lease payments by including fixed rental payments and variable rental payments that tie to an index or a rate, such as CPI. The Company recognizes lease expense for its operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease expense not included in the lease payment measurement as incurred.

The accounting guidance under Topic 842 requires the Company to make certain assumptions and judgments in applying the guidance, including determining whether an arrangement includes a lease, determining the term of a lease when the contract has renewal or termination provisions and determining the discount rate.

The Company determines whether an arrangement is or includes a lease at contract inception by evaluating whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. If the Company has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from and can direct the use of, the identified asset for a period of time, the Company accounts for the contract as a lease.

The Company uses the information available at the lease commencement date to determine the discount rate for any new leases. The Company used a portfolio approach to determine its incremental borrowing rate. Lease contracts were grouped based on similar lease terms and economic environments in a manner in which the Company reasonably expects that the outcome from applying a portfolio approach does not differ materially from an individual lease approach. The Company estimated a collateralized discount rate for each portfolio of leases.

(10)Concentration of Risk

The Company seeks to reduce its operating and leasing risks through the geographic diversification of its properties, tenant industry diversification, avoidance of dependency on a single asset and the creditworthiness of its tenants. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, no single tenant represented greater than 10% of rental revenues.

Cash and cash equivalent balances at certain institutions may exceed insurable amounts. The Company believes it mitigates this risk by investing in or through major financial institutions.

(11)Equity

Shareholders' Equity:

At-The-Market Offering Program. The Company maintains an At-The-Market offering program ("ATM program") under which the Company can issue common shares, including through forward sales contracts. There were no common share issuances under the ATM program for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The following table summarizes common share issuances under the ATM program for the six months ended June 30, 2020:

	Six Months Ended June 30, 2020
	Shares Sold	Net Proceeds
2020 ATM Issuances	5,321,588	$54,000

The Company entered into forward sales contracts, under its ATM program, for the sale of 3,649,023 common shares during the six months ended June 30, 2021 that have not yet been settled. Subject to the Company's right to elect cash or net share settlement, the Company expects to settle the forward sales contracts by the maturity dates in February 2022. The Company did not enter into forward sales contracts as of June 30, 2020. As of June 30, 2021, an aggregate of 8,639,740 common shares were sold in forward sales contracts that have not been settled and had an aggregate settlement price of $93,339, which is subject to adjustment in accordance with the forward sales contracts.

In February 2021, the Company amended the terms of its ATM offering program, under which the Company may, from time to time, sell up to $350,000 of common shares over the term of the program. As of June 30, 2021, common shares with an aggregate value of $309,048 remain available for issuance under the ATM program.

Underwritten equity offerings. In May 2021, the Company entered into forward sales contracts for the sale of 16,000,000 common shares at a public offering price of $12.11 per common share in an underwritten equity offering that have not yet settled. Subject to the Company's rights to elect cash or net share settlement, the Company expects to settle the forward sales contracts by the maturity date in May 2022. As of June 30, 2021, the forward sales contracts had an aggregate settlement price of $191,829, which is subject to adjustment in accordance with the forward sales contracts.

During 2020, the Company issued 17,250,000 common shares at a public offering price of $9.60 per common share in an underwritten equity offering and generated net proceeds of approximately $164,000. The proceeds were used for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and pending the application of the proceeds were used to pay down all of the then outstanding balance under the Company's revolving credit facility.

Nonemployee Stock Based Compensation. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company issued 27,565 and 23,480, respectively, of fully vested common shares to non-management members of the Company's Board of Trustees with a fair value of $300 and $250, respectively.

Share Repurchase Program. In July 2015, the Company's Board of Trustees authorized the repurchase of up to 10,000,000 common shares and increased this authorization by 10,000,000 in 2018. This share repurchase program has no expiration date. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company repurchased and retired 1,329,940 common shares at an average price of $8.28 per common share under the share repurchase program. There were no common shares repurchased during the six months ended June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, 8,976,315 common shares remain available for repurchase under this authorization. The Company records a liability for repurchases that have not yet been settled as of the period end.

Series C Preferred Stock. The Company had 1,935,400 shares of Series C Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series C Preferred”) outstanding at June 30, 2021. The shares have a dividend of $3.25 per share per annum, have a liquidation preference of $96,770, and the Company, if certain common share prices are achieved, can force conversion into common shares of the Company. As of June 30, 2021, each share was convertible into 2.4339 common shares. This conversion ratio may increase over time if the Company's common share dividend exceeds certain quarterly thresholds.

If certain fundamental changes occur, holders may require the Company, in certain circumstances, to repurchase all or part of their shares of Series C Preferred. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain fundamental changes, the Company will, under certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of additional common shares or, in lieu thereof, may in certain circumstances elect to adjust the conversion rate upon the shares of Series C Preferred becoming convertible into shares of the public acquiring or surviving company.

The Company may, at the Company's option, cause shares of Series C Preferred to be automatically converted into that number of common shares that are issuable at the then prevailing conversion rate. The Company may exercise its conversion right only if, at certain times, the closing price of the Company's common shares equals or exceeds 125% of the then prevailing conversion price of the Series C Preferred.

Holders of shares of Series C Preferred generally have no voting rights, but will have limited voting rights if the Company fails to pay dividends for six or more quarters and under certain other circumstances. Upon conversion, the Company may choose to deliver the conversion value to investors in cash, common shares, or a combination of cash and common shares.

A summary of the changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to the Company's cash flow hedges is as follows:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020
Balance at beginning of period	$	(17,963)	$	(1,928)
Other comprehensive gain (loss) before reclassifications	3,486		(19,773)
Amounts of loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to interest expense	2,436		971
Balance at end of period	$	(12,041)	$	(20,730)

Noncontrolling Interests. In conjunction with several of the Company's acquisitions in prior years, sellers were issued operating partnership units (“OP units”) as a form of consideration. All OP units, other than OP units owned by the Company, are redeemable for common shares at certain times, at the option of the holders, and are generally not otherwise mandatorily redeemable by the Company. The OP units are classified as a component of permanent equity as the Company has determined that the OP units are not redeemable securities as defined by GAAP. Each OP unit is currently redeemable at the holder's option for approximately 1.13 common shares, subject to future adjustments.

As of June 30, 2021, there were approximately 2,458,000 OP units outstanding other than OP units owned by the Company. All OP units receive distributions in accordance with the LCIF partnership agreement. To the extent that the Company's dividend per common share is less than the stated distribution per OP unit per the LCIF partnership agreement, the distributions per OP unit are reduced by the percentage reduction in the Company's dividend per common share. No OP units have a liquidation preference.

(12)Related Party Transactions

There were no related party transactions other than those disclosed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and the audited consolidated financial statements in the Annual Report.

(13)Commitments and Contingencies

In addition to the commitments and contingencies disclosed elsewhere, the Company has the following commitments and contingencies.

The Company is obligated under certain tenant leases, including its proportionate share for leases for non-consolidated entities, to fund the expansion of the underlying leased properties. The Company, under certain circumstances, may guarantee to tenants the completion of base building improvements and the payment of tenant improvement allowances and lease commissions on behalf of its subsidiaries.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company has committed to develop four consolidated development projects and expects to incur approximately $90,533, $40,802 and $15,906 in 2021, 2022 and 2023, respectively, excluding noncontrolling interests' share, to substantially complete the construction of the projects. The remaining two development projects are owned by non-consolidated joint ventures. Due to the early stage of development of each non-consolidated project and the uncertainty of construction schedules at such stage, the Company is unable to estimate the timing of the required fundings for the non-consolidated development projects.

The Company and LCIF are parties to a funding agreement under which the Company may be required to fund distributions made on account of LCIF's OP units. Pursuant to the funding agreement, the parties agreed that, if LCIF does not have sufficient cash available to make a quarterly distribution to its limited partners in an amount in accordance with the partnership agreement, Lexington will fund the shortfall. Payments under the agreement will be made in the form of loans to LCIF and will bear interest at prevailing rates as determined by the Company in its discretion but, no less than the applicable federal rate. LCIF's right to receive these loans will expire if no OP units remain outstanding and all such loans are repaid. No amounts have been advanced under this agreement.

From time to time, the Company is directly or indirectly involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes, based on currently available information, and after consultation with legal counsel, that although the outcomes of those normal course proceedings are uncertain, the results of such proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company exercised extension options on leases that resulted in a non-cash increase of $438 and $373, respectively, to the related operating lease liability and right of use asset.

The acquisition of the RR Ocala 44, LLC joint venture included a $489 non-cash increase to investments in real estate under construction and the noncontrolling interest because a member of the joint venture made a non-cash contribution of the land in exchange for its ownership interest in the joint venture.

(15)Subsequent Events

Subsequent to June 30, 2021, the Company:

•acquired four industrial properties for an aggregate cost of approximately $105,600;

•formed a development joint venture to construct three speculative warehouses in the Greenville/Spartanburg, South Carolina market for an aggregate cost of approximately $132,800;

•redeemed 1,598,906 OP units in connection with the disposition of three non-industrial properties, and;

•borrowed $90,000 on the revolving credit facility.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL

CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Introduction

When we use the terms “the Company,” “we,” “us” and “our,” we mean Lexington Realty Trust and all entities owned by us, including non-consolidated entities, except where it is clear that the term means only Lexington Realty Trust. References herein to ‘‘this Quarterly Report” are to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. The results of operations contained herein for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year.

The following is a discussion and analysis of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial condition and results of operations of Lexington Realty Trust for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and significant factors that could affect its prospective financial condition and results of operations. This discussion should be read together with the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein and notes thereto and with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, on February 18, 2021, which we refer to as the Annual Report. Historical results may not be indicative of future performance.

Forward-Looking Statements. This Quarterly Report, together with other statements and information publicly disseminated by us, contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which we refer to as the Exchange Act. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and include this statement for purposes of complying with these safe harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe our future plans, strategies and expectations, are generally identifiable by use of the words “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “projects,” “may,” “plans,” “predicts,” “will,” “will likely result” or similar expressions. Readers should not rely on forward-looking statements since they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which are, in some cases, beyond our control and which could materially affect actual results, performances or achievements. In particular, the factors that could cause actual results, performances or achievements to differ materially from current expectations, strategies or plans include, among others, any risks discussed below in “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and under the headings “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report and “Risk Factors” and “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Annual Report and other periodic reports filed by the Company with the SEC. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly release any revisions to these forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Accordingly, there is no assurance that our expectations will be realized.

Overview

COVID-19 Impact. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic, and on March 13, 2020 the United States declared a national emergency with respect to COVID-19. Our management continues to monitor events and is taking steps to mitigate the potential impact and risks to us.

We have received a limited number of, and may in the future receive, rent relief requests from our tenants. However, as of June 30, 2021, we do not believe that these rent relief requests will have a material impact on our rental revenues. A limited number of our other tenants, particularly retail tenants and those with businesses tied to the aviation industry, continue to be impacted by COVID-19 and related government restrictions and social distancing requirements. We continue to believe that the impacts of COVID-19 on our portfolio are mitigated due to our focus on warehouse and distribution properties and the diversity of our tenant base, both geographically and by industry exposure.

There has continued to be increased competition for investment in warehouses and distribution properties due to the resilience of this part of the industrial sector during the COVID-19 pandemic. We are also seeing various supply chains constrained by COVID-19 impacts and change in consumer demands, including supply chains related to our tenants' businesses and our development projects.

We remain unable to estimate the long-term impacts COVID-19 will have on our financial condition.

•We also invested an aggregate of $23.7 million in six development projects, which amount excludes our joint venture partners' shares.

Capital Recycling:

•Disposed of our interests in three consolidated properties for an aggregate gross disposition price of $125.3 million.

Debt:

•Borrowed $125.0 million on our revolving credit facility.

26

Development Activity:

As of June 30, 2021, we had four consolidated development projects in process with an aggregate estimated total cost of $267.0 million. We anticipate our remaining funding obligation to substantially complete the construction of these four projects, exclusive of our joint venture partners' shares, to be approximately $147.2 million.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. In preparing our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, we make assumptions, judgments and estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our assumptions, judgments and estimates on historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, including the recent economic uncertainty primarily caused by COVID-19. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. On a regular basis, we evaluate our assumptions, judgments and estimates. Certain of our accounting policies are discussed under (1) Item 7, “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report, (2) note 2 to our consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report and (3) note 1 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report. We believe there have been no material changes to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies under Item 7, “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows. We believe that cash flows from operations will continue to provide adequate capital to fund our operating and administrative expenses, regular debt service obligations and all dividend payments in accordance with applicable REIT requirements in both the short-term and long-term. However, our cash flow from operations may be negatively affected in the near term if we grant tenant rent relief packages or experience tenant defaults as a result of the effects of COVID-19. In addition, we anticipate that cash on hand, borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility, capital recycling proceeds, issuances of equity, mortgage proceeds and other debt, as well as other available alternatives, will provide the necessary capital required by our business.

At June 30, 2021, one of our property owner subsidiaries has a balloon payment of $10.4 million maturing in 2021. Our property owner subsidiaries do not have additional mortgage maturities with balloon payments due until 2025.In addition, certain of our subsidiaries are obligated to fund the construction of our development projects and we sometimes guaranty these obligations. We believe our property owner subsidiaries have sufficient sources of liquidity to meet these obligations through future cash flows from operations, the credit markets and, if determined appropriate by us, a capital contribution from us from either cash on hand ($196.4 million at June 30, 2021), property sale proceeds, borrowing capacity under our unsecured revolving credit facility ($475.0 million at June 30, 2021, subject to covenant compliance), which expires in 2023, but can be extended by us to 2024, unsettled forward common share sale contracts, and future cash flows from operations.

Cash flows from operations were $108.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to $93.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily related to the impact of cash flow generated from acquiring properties and termination fee income, partially offset by property sales and vacancies. The underlying drivers that impact our working capital, and therefore cash flows from operations, are the timing of collection of rents, including reimbursements from tenants, payment of interest on mortgage debt and payment of operating and general and administrative costs. We believe the net-lease structure of the leases encumbering a majority of the properties in which we have an interest mitigates the risks of the timing of cash flows from operations since the payment and timing of operating costs related to the properties are generally borne directly by the tenant. The collection and timing of tenant rents are closely monitored by management as part of our cash management program.

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $140.3 million and $316.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Cash used in investing activities related primarily to acquisitions of real estate, investments in real estate under construction, capital expenditures, lease costs, investments in non-consolidated entities and changes in real estate deposits, net. Cash provided by investing activities primarily related to net proceeds received from the disposition of real estate and distributions from non-consolidated entities.

27

Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $50.4 million and $177.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Cash provided by financing activities primarily related to revolving credit facility borrowings, issuances of common shares and cash contributions from noncontrolling interests. Cash used in financing activities primarily related to dividend and debt service payments.

Common Share Issuances:

At-The-Market Offering Program. We maintain an At-The-Market offering program ("ATM program") under which the Company can issue common shares, including through forward sales contracts. The following table summarizes common share issuances under the ATM program for the six months ended June 30, 2020:

	Six Months Ended June 30, 2020
	Shares Sold	Net Proceeds
2020 ATM Issuances	5,321,588	$	54.0	million

We entered into forward sales contracts for the sale of 3,649,023 common shares during the six months ended June 30, 2021 that have not yet been settled. Subject to our right to elect cash or net share settlement, we expect to settle the forward sales transactions by the maturity dates in February 2022. As of June 30, 2021, an aggregate of 8,639,740 common shares were sold in forward sales contracts that have not been settled and had an aggregate settlement price of $93.3 million, which is subject to adjustment in accordance with the forward sales contracts.

In February 2021, we amended the terms of our ATM offering program, under which we may, from time to time, sell up to $350.0 million common shares over the term of the program. As of June 30, 2021, common shares with an aggregate value of $309.0 million remain available for issuance under the ATM program.

Underwritten Equity Offerings. In May 2021, we entered into forward sales contracts for the sale of 16,000,000 common shares at a public offering price of $12.11 per common share in an underwritten equity offering that have not yet settled. Subject to our rights to elect cash or net share settlement, we expect to settle the forward sales contracts by the maturity date of May 2022. As of June 30, 2021, the forward sales contracts had an aggregate settlement price of $191.8 million, which is subject to adjustment in accordance with the forward sales contracts.

During 2020, we issued 17,250,000 common shares at a public offering price of $9.60 per common share in an underwritten equity offering and generated net proceeds of approximately $164.0 million. The proceeds were used for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and pending the application of the proceeds were used to pay down all of the then outstanding balance under our revolving credit facility.

The volatility in the capital markets primarily resulting from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic may negatively affect our ability to access the capital markets through our ATM program and other offerings.

Dividends. Dividends paid to our common and preferred shareholders were $64.7 million and $57.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

We declared a quarterly dividend of $0.1075 per common share during the three months ended June 30, 2021, which is an increase from the $0.1050 per common share quarterly dividend declared during the three months ended June 30, 2020.

UPREIT Structure. As of June 30, 2021, 2.5 million units of limited partner interests, or OP units, in our operating partnership, LCIF, were outstanding not including OP units held by us. Assuming all outstanding OP units not held by us were redeemed on such date, the estimated fair value of such OP units was $33.1 million based on our closing price of $11.95 per common share as of June 30, 2021 and a redemption factor of approximately 1.13 common shares per OP unit.

Financings. The following senior notes were outstanding as of June 30, 2021:

Issue Date	Face Amount ($000)		Interest Rate		Maturity Date	Issue Price
August 2020	$	400,000	2.70	%	September 2030	99.233	%
May 2014	198,932		4.40	%	June 2024	99.883	%
June 2013	188,756		4.25	%	June 2023	99.026	%
	$	787,688

28

Each series of senior notes is unsecured and requires payment of interest semi-annually in arrears. We may redeem the notes at our option at any time prior to maturity in whole or in part by paying the principal amount of the Senior Notes being redeemed plus a make-whole premium.

A summary of the maturity dates and interest rates of our unsecured credit agreement, as of June 30, 2021, are as follows:

	Maturity Date	Current Interest Rate
$600.0 Million Revolving Credit Facility(1)	February 2023	LIBOR + 0.90%
$300.0 Million Term Loan(2)	January 2025	LIBOR + 1.00%

(1)    Maturity date of the revolving credit facility can be extended to February 2024 at our option. The interest rate ranges from LIBOR plus 0.775% to 1.45%. At June 30, 2021, we had $125.0 million borrowings outstanding and availability of $475.0 million, subject to covenant compliance.

(2)    The LIBOR portion of the interest rate was swapped to obtain a current fixed rate of 2.732% per annum.

As of June 30, 2021, we were compliant with all applicable financial covenants contained in our corporate-level debt agreements.

Results of Operations

Three months ended June 30, 2021 compared with three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in net income attributable to common shareholders of $53.7 million was primarily due to the items discussed below.

The decrease in rental revenues of $0.5 million was primarily due to a decrease in rental revenue due to the sale of properties, partially offset by acquisition revenue.

The increase in depreciation and amortization expense of $3.2 million was primarily due to acquisition activity.

The increase in property operating expense of $1.4 million was primarily due to an increase in operating expense responsibilities at certain properties.

The decrease in interest and amortization expense of $2.7 million related primarily to a decrease in the amount of our mortgage debt outstanding and a decrease in our overall borrowing rate.

The decrease in impairment charges of $1.6 million is related to the timing of an impairment charge recognized on a property in 2020. The impairment was primarily due to a potential sale, vacancy and lack of leasing prospects. There were no impairment charges in 2021.

The increase in gains on sales of properties of $55.5 million related to the timing of property dispositions.

The increase in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests of $0.8 million was primarily attributable to an allocation of the OP unit's share of gains on sale of properties from LCIF.

Six months ended June 30, 2021 compared with six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in net income attributable to common shareholders of $76.6 million was primarily due to the items discussed below.

The increase in total gross revenues of $11.5 million was primarily a result of an increase in rental revenue. Rental revenue increased $12.4 million primarily due to acquisitions and an increase of $11.4 million in termination income recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was partially offset by a $0.9 million decrease in other revenue primarily due to an incentive fee earned upon the sale of a property that we managed for a third-party real estate owner in 2020 with no comparable revenue earned in 2021.

The increase in depreciation and amortization expense of $4.9 million was primarily due to acquisition activity.

The increase in property operating expense of $2.0 million was primarily due to an increase in operating expense responsibilities at certain properties.

The increase in general and administrative expenses of $1.0 million was primarily due to an increase in payroll expense.

29

The decrease in interest and amortization expense of $6.0 million related primarily to a decrease in the amount of our mortgage debt outstanding and a decrease in our overall borrowing rate.

The decrease in debt satisfaction gains, net, of $1.4 million was primarily related to the foreclosure of our Charleston, South Carolina property in 2020 with no comparable transactions in 2021.

The decrease in impairment charges of $1.6 million is related to the timing of an impairment charge recognized on a property in 2020. The impairment was primarily due to a potential sale, vacancy and lack of leasing prospects. There were no impairment charges in 2021.

The increase in gains on sales of properties of $67.6 million related to the timing of property dispositions.

The increase in income allocated to noncontrolling interests of $1.0 million is due to an allocation of the OP unit's share of gains on sales of properties from LCIF.

The increase in net income or decrease in net loss in future periods will be closely tied to the level of acquisitions made by us. Without acquisitions, the sources of growth in net income are limited to fixed rent adjustments and index adjustments (such as the consumer price index), reduced interest expense on amortizing mortgages and variable rate indebtedness and by controlling other variable overhead costs. However, there are many factors beyond management's control that could offset these items including, without limitation, changes in economic conditions such as the recent economic uncertainty primarily caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, increased interest rates and tenant monetary defaults and the other risks described in this Quarterly Report. Furthermore, our ability to complete acquisitions may be limited due to travel restrictions and social distancing measures during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Same-Store Results

Same-store net operating income, or NOI, which is a non-GAAP measure, represents the NOI for consolidated properties that were owned and included in our portfolio for two comparable reporting periods. We define NOI as operating revenues (rental income (less GAAP rent adjustments and lease termination income), and other property income) less property operating expenses. As same-store NOI excludes the change in NOI from acquired and disposed of properties, it highlights operating trends such as occupancy levels, rental rates and operating costs on properties. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating same-store NOI, and accordingly same-store NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. Management believes that same-store NOI is a useful supplemental measure of our operating performance. However, same-store NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance since it does not reflect the operations of our entire portfolio, nor does it reflect the impact of general and administrative expenses, acquisition-related expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization costs, other nonproperty income and losses, the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties, or trends in development and construction activities which are significant economic costs and activities that could materially impact our results from operations. We believe that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP measure to same-store NOI.

The following presents our consolidated same-store NOI, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 ($000's):

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020
Total cash base rent	$	114,918	$	114,080
Tenant reimbursements	14,144		13,120
Property operating expenses	(16,925)		(16,097)
Same-store NOI	$	112,137	$	111,103

Our reported same-store NOI increased from the first six months of 2020 to the first six months of 2021 by 0.9%. As of June 30, 2021 and 2020, our historical same-store square footage leased was 97.4% and 99.3%, respectively.

The increase in same-store NOI between periods primarily related to an increase in cash base rent and tenant reimbursements, which was partially offset by an increase in operating expense responsibilities at certain properties. Our same-store results could be further impacted in the future due to COVID-19 related rent deferrals, rent forgiveness or tenant defaults (in the short-term and/or long-term).

Funds From Operations

We believe that Funds from Operations, or FFO, which is a non-GAAP measure, is a widely recognized and appropriate measure of the performance of an equity REIT. We believe FFO is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO when reporting their results. FFO is intended to exclude GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate and related assets, which assumes that the value of real estate diminishes ratably over time. Historically, however, real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions. As a result, FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, development activities, interest costs and other matters without the inclusion of depreciation and amortization, providing perspective that may not necessarily be apparent from net income.

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, defines FFO as “net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding depreciation and amortization related to real estate, gains and losses from the sales of certain real estate assets, gains and losses from change in control and impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity. The reconciling items include amounts to adjust earnings from consolidated partially-owned entities and equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates to FFO.” FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.

We present FFO available to common shareholders and unitholders - basic and also present FFO available to all equityholders and unitholders - diluted on a company-wide basis as if all securities that are convertible, at the holder's option, into our common shares, are converted at the beginning of the period. We also present Adjusted Company FFO available to all equityholders and unitholders - diluted which adjusts FFO available to all equityholders and unitholders - diluted for certain items which we believe are not indicative of the operating results of our real estate portfolio. We believe this is an appropriate presentation as it is frequently requested by security analysts, investors and other interested parties. Since others do not calculate these measures in a similar fashion, these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures as reported by others. These measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2021, we had investments in various real estate entities with varying structures. The real estate investments owned by these entities are generally financed with non-recourse debt. Non-recourse debt is generally defined as debt whereby the lenders' sole recourse with respect to borrower defaults is limited to the value of the assets collateralized by the debt. The lender generally does not have recourse against any other assets owned by the borrower or any of the members or partners of the borrower, except for certain specified exceptions listed in the particular loan documents. These exceptions generally relate to "bad boy" acts, including fraud, prohibited transfers and breaches of material representations. We have guaranteed such obligations for certain of our non-consolidated entities with respect to $395.5 million of such non-recourse debt. We believe the likelihood of making any payments under such guaranties is remote and we generally have an agreement from each partner to reimburse us for its proportionate share of any liability related to a guarantee trigger unless such trigger is caused solely by us.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE

DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our exposure to market risk relates primarily to our variable-rate indebtedness not subject to interest rate swaps and our fixed-rate debt. Our consolidated aggregate principal variable-rate indebtedness not subject to interest rate swaps was $254.1 million and $169.1 million at each of June 30, 2021 and 2020, which represented 17.3% and 12.6%, respectively, of our aggregate principal consolidated indebtedness. During the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, our variable-rate indebtedness had a weighted-average interest rate of 1.9% and 2.4%, respectively. Had the weighted-average interest rate been 100 basis points higher, our interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 would have increased by $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, our variable-rate interest rate was 1.9% and 2.7%, respectively. Had the weighted-average interest rate been 100 basis points higher, our interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 would have increased by $0.7 million and $1.0 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2021 and 2020, our aggregate principal consolidated fixed-rate debt was $1.2 billion, respectively, which represented 82.7% and 87.4%, respectively, of our aggregate principal indebtedness.

For certain of our financial instruments, fair values are not readily available since there are no active trading markets as characterized by current exchanges between willing parties. Accordingly, we derive or estimate fair values using various valuation techniques, such as computing the present value of estimated future cash flows using discount rates commensurate with the risks involved. However, the determination of estimated cash flows may be subjective and imprecise. Changes in assumptions or estimation methodologies can have a material effect on these estimated fair values, especially given the volatility of the current economic environment. The following fair value was determined using the interest rates that we believe our outstanding fixed-rate indebtedness would warrant as of June 30, 2021. We believe the fair value is indicative of the interest rate environment as of June 30, 2021, but this amount does not take into consideration the effects of subsequent interest rate fluctuations. Accordingly, we estimate that the fair value of our fixed-rate indebtedness was $1.3 billion as of June 30, 2021.

Our interest rate risk objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate fluctuations on earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, we manage our exposure to fluctuations in market interest rates through the use of fixed-rate debt instruments to the extent that reasonably favorable rates are obtainable with such arrangements. We may enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps or caps to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument or to effectively lock the interest rate on a portion of our variable-rate debt. As of June 30, 2021, we had four interest rate swap agreements (see note 8 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report).

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such terms are defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report to determine if such controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management, including each of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2021.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this Quarterly Report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls. Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.Legal Proceedings.

From time to time, we are directly and indirectly involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business, including claims by lenders under non-recourse carve-out guarantees. We believe, based on currently available information, and after consultation with legal counsel, that although the outcomes of those normal course proceedings are uncertain, the results of such proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

ITEM 1A.Risk Factors.

There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in the Annual Report.

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

There were no share repurchases during the quarter ended June 30, 2021 under our share repurchase authorization most recently announced on November 2, 2018, which has no expiration date. There were 8,976,315 shares that may yet be purchased under our share repurchase authorization.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

The Company and Financial Statement Presentation

The Company and Financial Statement Presentation

Lexington Realty Trust (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, except when the context only applies to the parent entity, the “Company”) is a Maryland real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that owns a portfolio of equity investments focused on single-tenant industrial properties.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had ownership interests in approximately 135 consolidated real estate properties, located in 28 states. The properties in which the Company has an interest are primarily net leased to tenants in various industries.

The Company believes it has qualified as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Accordingly, the Company will not be subject to federal income tax, provided that distributions to its shareholders equal at least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined under the Code. The Company is permitted to participate in certain activities from which it was previously precluded in order to maintain its qualification as a REIT, so long as these activities are conducted in entities which elect to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”) under the Code. As such, the TRS are subject to federal income taxes on the income from these activities.

The Company conducts its operations indirectly through (1) property owner subsidiaries, which are single purpose entities, (2) a wholly-owned TRS, Lexington Realty Advisors, Inc. (“LRA”), and (3) joint ventures. Property owner subsidiaries are landlords under leases for properties in which the Company has an interest and/or borrowers under loan agreements secured by properties in which the Company has an interest and lender subsidiaries are lenders under loan agreements where the Company made an investment in a loan asset, but in all cases are separate and distinct legal entities. Each property owner subsidiary is a separate legal entity that maintains separate books and records. The assets and credit of each property owner subsidiary with a property subject to a mortgage loan are not available to creditors to satisfy the debt and other obligations of any other person, including any other property owner subsidiary or any other affiliate. Consolidated entities that are not property owner subsidiaries do not directly own any of the assets of a property owner subsidiary (or the general partner, member or managing member of such property owner subsidiary), but merely hold partnership, membership or beneficial interests therein, which interests are subordinate to the claims of such property owner subsidiary's (or its general partner's, member's or managing member's) creditors.

The financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 have been prepared by the Company in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). 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 normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC on February 18, 2021 (“Annual Report”).

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. The Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with GAAP. The financial statements reflect the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company consolidates the wholly-owned subsidiaries, partnerships and joint ventures which it controls (i) through voting rights or similar rights or (ii) by means other than voting rights if the Company is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity ("VIE"). Entities which the Company does not control and entities which are VIEs in which the Company is not a primary beneficiary are accounted for under appropriate GAAP.

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company acquired an 80% interest in each of two joint ventures with developers, which each acquired land parcels to develop industrial properties. The Company determined that the joint ventures are variable interest entities in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance. The Company concluded that it is the primary beneficiary in each of the joint ventures and as such, the joint ventures' operations are consolidated in the Company’s financial statements.

In addition, the Company is the primary beneficiary of certain VIEs as it has a controlling financial interest in these entities. Lepercq Corporate Income Fund L.P. ("LCIF") and ATL Fairburn L.P. ("Fairburn JV"), are consolidated and the Company, as of June 30, 2021, had an approximate 97% and 87% interest, respectively, are VIEs.

The assets of each VIE are only available to satisfy such VIE's respective liabilities. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the VIEs' mortgages and notes payable were non-recourse to the Company. Below is a summary of selected financial data of consolidated VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary included in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

	June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020
Real estate, net	$	610,344	$	569,461
Total assets	$	673,307	$	679,786
Mortgages and notes payable, net	$	25,611	$	25,600
Total liabilities	$	41,816	$	40,974

In addition, the Company acquires, from time to time, properties using a reverse like-kind exchange structure pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code (a "reverse 1031 exchange") and, as such, the properties are in the possession of an Exchange Accommodation Titleholder ("EAT") until the reverse 1031 exchange is completed. The EAT is classified as a VIE as it is a “thinly capitalized” entity. The Company consolidates the EAT because it is the primary beneficiary as it has the ability to control the activities that most significantly impact the EAT's economic performance and can collapse the 1031 exchange structure at any time. The assets of the EAT primarily consist of leased property (net real estate and intangibles).

Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes lease revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another systematic and rational basis is more representative of the time pattern in which the use benefit is derived from the leased property. Revenue is recognized on a contractual basis for leases with escalations tied to a consumer price index with no floor. The Company evaluates the collectability of its rental payments and recognizes revenue on a cash basis when the Company believes it is no longer probable that it will receive substantially all of the remaining lease payments. Renewal options in leases with rental terms that are lower than those in the primary term are excluded from the calculation of straight-line rent if the renewals are not reasonably certain. If the Company funds tenant improvements and the improvements are deemed to be owned by the Company, revenue recognition will commence when the improvements are substantially completed and possession or control of the space is turned over to the tenant. If the Company determines that the tenant allowances are lease incentives, the Company commences revenue recognition when possession or control of the space is turned over to the tenant for tenant work to begin. The lease incentive is recorded as a deferred expense and amortized as a reduction of revenue on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. The Company recognizes lease termination fees as rental revenue in the period received and writes off unamortized lease-related intangible and other lease-related account balances, provided there are no further Company obligations under the lease. Otherwise, such fees and balances are recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining obligation period with the termination payments being recorded as a component of rent receivable-deferred on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Use of Estimates. Management has made a number of significant estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses to prepare these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. These estimates and assumptions are based on management's best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment. Management adjusts such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. The most significant estimates made include the recoverability of current and deferred accounts receivable, allocation of property purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the determination of VIEs and which entities should be consolidated, the determination of impairment of long-lived assets and equity method investments, valuation of derivative financial instruments, valuation of awards granted under compensation plans, the determination of the incremental borrowing rate for leases where the Company is the lessee and the useful lives of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Cost Capitalization. The Company capitalizes interest and direct and indirect project costs associated with the initial construction of a property up to the time the property is substantially complete and ready for its intended use within investments in real estate under construction in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition, the Company capitalizes operating costs, including real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, that have been allocated to vacant space based on the square footage of the portion of the building not held available for immediate occupancy during the extended lease-up periods after the construction of the building shell has been completed if costs are being incurred to ready the vacant space for its intended use. If costs and activities incurred to ready the vacant space cease, then cost capitalization is also discontinued until such activities are resumed. Once construction has been completed on a vacant space, project costs are no longer capitalized.

Restricted Cash. Restricted cash is comprised primarily of cash balances held by a qualified intermediary and operating cash reserves held at one property.

Fair Value Measurements. The Company follows the guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("Topic 820"), to determine the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments. Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities; Level 2 - observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and Level 3 - unobservable inputs, which are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as considering counterparty credit risk. The Company has formally elected to apply the portfolio exception within Topic 820 with respect to measuring counterparty risk for all of its derivative transactions subject to master netting arrangements.

The Company estimates the fair value of its real estate assets, including non-consolidated real estate assets, by using income and market valuation techniques. The Company may estimate fair values using market information such as recent sale contracts (Level 2 inputs) or recent sale offers or discounted cash flow models, which primarily rely on Level 3 inputs. The cash flow models include estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specified holding period. These cash flows may include contractual rental revenues, projected future rental revenues and expenses and forecasted tenant improvements and lease commissions based upon market conditions determined through discussion with local real estate professionals, experience the Company has with its other owned properties in such markets and expectations for growth. Capitalization rates and discount rates utilized in these models are estimated by management based upon rates that management believes to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for the respective properties based upon an analysis of factors such as property and tenant quality, geographical location and local supply and demand observations.

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional, applies for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effect of) reference rate reform on financial reporting, in response to concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates, and, particularly, the risk of cessation of LIBOR and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. As of March 31, 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. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.

In July 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-05, Leases (Topic 842): Lessors-Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments, to amend the guidance to provide alternative accounting for sales type and direct finance leases with variable lease payments. The amendments in ASU 2021-05 amend the accounting guidance to allow lessors to classify and account for a lease with variable leases payments that do not depend on a reference index or a rate as an operating lease if certain criteria are met. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 with early adoption permitted. The Company does not currently have any leases that are classified as sales-type or direct finance leases. Therefore, the Company determined that it will apply the amendment on a prospective basis to applicable leases that commence or are modified on or after July 1, 2021.

Earnings Per Share

Earnings Per Share

A portion of the Company's non-vested share-based payment awards are considered participating securities and as such, the Company is required to use the two-class method for the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Under the two-class computation method, net losses are not allocated to participating securities unless the holder of the security has a contractual obligation to share in the losses. The non-vested share-based payment awards are not allocated losses as the awards do not have a contractual obligation to share in losses of the Company.

The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:

For per common share amounts, all incremental shares are considered anti-dilutive for periods that have a loss from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders. In addition, other common share equivalents may be anti-dilutive in certain periods.

Dispositions and Impairment

Dispositions and Impairment

During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company disposed of its interests in various properties for an aggregate gross disposition price of $183,427 and $74,064, respectively, and recognized aggregate gains on sales of properties of $88,645 and $20,998, respectively. Included in the 2020 dispositions is one office property located in Charleston, South Carolina which was conveyed to the lender in forgiveness of the mortgage loan encumbering the property. The balance of the non-recourse mortgage loan was in excess of the value of the property collateral, resulting in a debt satisfaction gain, net of $1,393.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had three properties classified as held for sale because the properties met the criteria included under the held for sale accounting guidance and a sale to a third party within the next 12 months was deemed probable. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had two properties that met the held for sale criteria.

Assets and liabilities of the held for sale properties as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 consisted of the following:

	June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020
Assets:
Real estate, at cost	$	26,915	$	32,629
Real estate, intangible assets	2,535		7,941
Accumulated depreciation and amortization	(14,286)		(24,312)
Rent receivable - deferred	3,720		79
Other	1,387		193
	$	20,271	$	16,530
Liabilities:
Accounts payable and other liabilities	$	1,271	$	790

The Company assesses on a regular basis whether there are any indicators that the carrying value of its real estate assets may be impaired. Potential indicators may include an increase in vacancy at a property, tenant financial instability, change in the estimated holding period of the asset, the potential sale or transfer of the property in the near future and changes in economic conditions. An asset is determined to be impaired if the asset's carrying value is in excess of its estimated fair value and the Company estimates that its cost will not be recovered.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company recognized one impairment charge of $1,617 on a vacant office property located in Houston, Texas. The property was sold in 2020. There were no impairment charges recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

The following tables present the Company's assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall:

	Balance		Fair Value Measurements Using
Description	June 30, 2021		(Level 1)		(Level 2)		(Level 3)
Interest rate swap liabilities	$	(12,041)	$	—	$	(12,041)	$	—
	Balance		Fair Value Measurements Using
Description	December 31, 2020		(Level 1)		(Level 2)		(Level 3)
Interest rate swap liabilities	$	(17,963)	$	—	$	(17,963)	$	—
Impaired real estate assets	$	21,141	$	—	$	2,480	$	18,661

(1)    Represents non-recurring fair value measurement. The fair value is calculated as of the impairment date. $2,480 was based on an observable contract thus Level 2. The Company measured $18,661 of these fair values based on discounted cash flow analysis, using a hold period of ten

years, a discount rate of 9.0% and residual capitalization rates ranging from 8.0% to 9.0%. As significant inputs to the models are unobservable, the Company determined that the value determined for these properties falls within Level 3 of the fair value reporting hierarchy.

The majority of the inputs used to value the Company's interest rate swaps fell within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, such as observable market interest rate curves; however, the credit valuation associated with the interest rate swaps utilized Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company determined that the credit valuation adjustment relative to the overall fair value of the interest rate swaps was not significant. As a result, the interest rate swaps were classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The table below sets forth the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments, excluding held for sale assets, as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

	As of June 30, 2021				As of December 31, 2020
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Liabilities
Debt	$	1,459,691	$	1,480,219	$	1,341,242	$	1,368,151

The fair value of the Company's debt is primarily estimated utilizing Level 3 inputs by using a discounted cash flow analysis, based upon estimates of market interest rates, except for the Company's senior notes payable. The Company determines the fair value of its senior notes payable using market prices. The inputs used in determining the fair value of these notes are categorized as Level 1 due to the fact that the Company uses quoted market rates to value these instruments. However, the inputs used in determining the fair value could be categorized as Level 2 if trading volumes are low.

Fair values cannot be determined with precision, may not be substantiated by comparison to quoted prices in active markets and may not be realized upon sale. Additionally, there are inherent uncertainties in any fair value measurement technique, and changes in the underlying assumptions used, including discount rates, liquidity risks and estimates of future cash flows, could significantly affect the fair value measurement amounts.

Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable. The Company estimates that the fair value of cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates carrying value due to the relatively short maturity of the instruments.

Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Derivatives and Hedging Activities

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 type, amount, sources, and duration of its debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the 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 value 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 investments and borrowings.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk. The Company's objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense, to manage its exposure to interest rate movements and therefore manage its cash outflows as it relates to the underlying debt instruments. To accomplish these objectives, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy relating to certain of its variable rate debt instruments. Interest rate 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.

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 (loss) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. The Company did not incur any ineffectiveness during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

During July 2019, the Company entered into four interest rate swap agreements with its counterparties. The swaps were designated as cash flow hedges of the risk of variability attributable to changes in the LIBOR swap rates on its $300,000 LIBOR-indexed variable-rate unsecured term loan. Accordingly, changes in fair value of the swaps are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified to earnings as interest becomes receivable or payable. The swaps expire coterminous with the extended maturity of the term loan in January 2025. During the next 12 months ending June 30, 2022, the Company estimates that an additional $4,841 will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense if the swaps remain outstanding.

Interest Rate Derivative	Number of Instruments	Notional
Interest Rate Swaps	4	$300,000

The table below presents the fair value of the Company's derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the condensed consolidated balance sheets:

	As of June 30, 2021			As of December 31, 2020

Total interest expense presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations in which the effects of cash flow hedges are recorded was $22,960 and $28,961 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

The Company's agreements with swap derivatives counterparties contain provisions whereby if the Company defaults on the underlying indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then the Company could also be declared in default of the swap derivative obligation. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had not posted any collateral related to the agreements.

Leases [Abstract]

Lease Accounting

Lease Accounting

The following is a summary of the Company's accounting for leases as of and during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:

Lessor

Lexington’s lease portfolio as a lessor primarily includes general purpose, single-tenant net-leased industrial and office real estate assets. Most of the Company’s leases require tenants to pay fixed annual rental payments that escalate on an annual basis and variable payments for other operating expenses, such as real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance ("CAM"), and utilities, that are based on the actual expenses incurred.

Certain leases allow for the tenant to renew the lease term upon expiration or earlier. Periods covered by a renewal option are included within the lease term only when renewals are deemed to be reasonably certain. Certain leases allow for the tenant to terminate the lease before the expiration of lease term and certain leases provide the tenant with the right to purchase the leased property at fair market value or a stipulated price upon expiration of the lease term or before.

Accounting guidance under Topic 842 requires the Company to make certain assumptions and judgments in applying the guidance, including determining whether an arrangement includes a lease and determining the lease term when the contract has renewal, purchase or early termination provisions.

The Company analyzes its accounts receivable, customer creditworthiness and current economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the collectability of the lessee's total accounts receivable balance on a lease by lease basis. In addition, tenants in bankruptcy are analyzed and considerations are made in connection with the expected pre-petition and post-petition claims. If a lessee's accounts receivable balance is considered uncollectable, the Company will write-off the receivable balances associated with the lease to rental revenue and cease to recognize lease income, including straight-line rent, unless cash is received. If the Company subsequently determines that it is probable it will collect substantially all of the lessee's remaining lease payments under the lease term; the Company will reinstate the straight-line balance adjusting for the amount related to the period when the lease was accounted for on a cash basis. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company wrote off a deferred rent receivable balance of $615, as a reduction of rental revenue, related to a tenant that dissolved and surrendered its leased premises in an industrial property located in the Columbus, Ohio market.

Certain tenants have been experiencing financial difficulties as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company wrote off an aggregate deferred rent receivable balance of $1,360, as a reduction of rental revenue, related to tenants with rent collectability concerns. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company wrote off an aggregate of $334 and $40, respectively, accounts receivable relating to certain tenants suffering from the current economic conditions.

The Company determined that the lease and non-lease components in its leases are a single lease component, which is, therefore, being recognized as rental revenue in its unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The primary non-lease service is included within rental revenue is CAM services provided as part of the Company’s real estate leases. Topic 842 requires that the Company capitalize, as initial direct costs, only those costs that are incurred due to the execution of a lease. As of June 30, 2020, the Company incurred $29 of costs that were not incremental to the execution of leases, which are included in property operating expenses on its unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company incurred no leasing costs that were not incremental for the execution of leases as of June 30, 2021.

The Company manages the risk associated with the residual value of its leased properties by including contract clauses that make tenants responsible for surrendering the space in good condition upon lease termination, holding a diversified portfolio, and other activities. The Company does not have residual value guarantees on specific properties.

The following table presents the Company’s classification of rental revenue for its operating leases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
Classification	June 30, 2021		June 30, 2020		June 30, 2021		June 30, 2020
Fixed	$	70,630	$	73,374	$	142,572	$	144,639
Variable(1)(2)	9,942		7,720		29,645		15,190
Total	$	80,572	$	81,094	$	172,217	$	159,829

(1)    Primarily comprised of tenant reimbursements.

(2) Variable income contains termination income of $11,827 and $439 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The 2021 termination fee income primarily related to a tenant that terminated its lease at the Company's Durham, New Hampshire industrial property.

Future fixed rental receipts for leases, assuming no new or re-negotiated leases as of June 30, 2021 were as follows:

2021 - remainder	$	133,585
2022	267,171
2023	266,388
2024	230,957
2025	203,554
Thereafter	1,094,536
Total	$	2,196,191

Lessee

The Company, as lessee, has ground leases, corporate leases for office space, and office equipment leases. All leases were classified as operating leases as of June 30, 2021. The leases have remaining lease terms of up to 42 years, some of which include options to extend the leases in 5 to 10-year increments for up to 52 years. Renewal periods are included in the lease term only when renewal is deemed to be reasonably certain. The lease term also includes periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise the termination option. The Company measures its lease payments by including fixed rental payments and variable rental payments that tie to an index or a rate, such as CPI. The Company recognizes lease expense for its operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease expense not included in the lease payment measurement as incurred.

The accounting guidance under Topic 842 requires the Company to make certain assumptions and judgments in applying the guidance, including determining whether an arrangement includes a lease, determining the term of a lease when the contract has renewal or termination provisions and determining the discount rate.

The Company determines whether an arrangement is or includes a lease at contract inception by evaluating whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. If the Company has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from and can direct the use of, the identified asset for a period of time, the Company accounts for the contract as a lease.

The Company uses the information available at the lease commencement date to determine the discount rate for any new leases. The Company used a portfolio approach to determine its incremental borrowing rate. Lease contracts were grouped based on similar lease terms and economic environments in a manner in which the Company reasonably expects that the outcome from applying a portfolio approach does not differ materially from an individual lease approach. The Company estimated a collateralized discount rate for each portfolio of leases.

Supplemental information related to operating leases is as follows:

	Six Months Ended
	June 30, 2021		June 30, 2020
Weighted-average remaining lease term
Operating leases (years)	11.3		12.4
Weighted-average discount rate
Operating leases	4.1	%	4.2	%

The components of lease expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were as follows:

Income Statement Classification	Fixed		Variable		Total
2021:
Property operating	$	1,824	$	—	$	1,824

If the Company subsequently determines that it is probable it will collect substantially all of the lessee's remaining lease payments under the lease term; the Company will reinstate the straight-line balance adjusting for the amount related to the period when the lease was accounted for on a cash basis. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company wrote off a deferred rent receivable balance of $615, as a reduction of rental revenue, related to a tenant that dissolved and surrendered its leased premises in an industrial property located in the Columbus, Ohio market.

Certain tenants have been experiencing financial difficulties as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company wrote off an aggregate deferred rent receivable balance of $1,360, as a reduction of rental revenue, related to tenants with rent collectability concerns. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company wrote off an aggregate of $334 and $40, respectively, accounts receivable relating to certain tenants suffering from the current economic conditions.

The Company determined that the lease and non-lease components in its leases are a single lease component, which is, therefore, being recognized as rental revenue in its unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The primary non-lease service is included within rental revenue is CAM services provided as part of the Company’s real estate leases. Topic 842 requires that the Company capitalize, as initial direct costs, only those costs that are incurred due to the execution of a lease. As of June 30, 2020, the Company incurred $29 of costs that were not incremental to the execution of leases, which are included in property operating expenses on its unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company incurred no leasing costs that were not incremental for the execution of leases as of June 30, 2021.

The Company manages the risk associated with the residual value of its leased properties by including contract clauses that make tenants responsible for surrendering the space in good condition upon lease termination, holding a diversified portfolio, and other activities. The Company does not have residual value guarantees on specific properties.

The following table presents the Company’s classification of rental revenue for its operating leases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
Classification	June 30, 2021		June 30, 2020		June 30, 2021		June 30, 2020
Fixed	$	70,630	$	73,374	$	142,572	$	144,639
Variable(1)(2)	9,942		7,720		29,645		15,190
Total	$	80,572	$	81,094	$	172,217	$	159,829

(1)    Primarily comprised of tenant reimbursements.

(2) Variable income contains termination income of $11,827 and $439 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The 2021 termination fee income primarily related to a tenant that terminated its lease at the Company's Durham, New Hampshire industrial property.

Future fixed rental receipts for leases, assuming no new or re-negotiated leases as of June 30, 2021 were as follows:

2021 - remainder	$	133,585
2022	267,171
2023	266,388
2024	230,957
2025	203,554
Thereafter	1,094,536
Total	$	2,196,191

Lessee

The Company, as lessee, has ground leases, corporate leases for office space, and office equipment leases. All leases were classified as operating leases as of June 30, 2021. The leases have remaining lease terms of up to 42 years, some of which include options to extend the leases in 5 to 10-year increments for up to 52 years. Renewal periods are included in the lease term only when renewal is deemed to be reasonably certain. The lease term also includes periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise the termination option. The Company measures its lease payments by including fixed rental payments and variable rental payments that tie to an index or a rate, such as CPI. The Company recognizes lease expense for its operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease expense not included in the lease payment measurement as incurred.

The accounting guidance under Topic 842 requires the Company to make certain assumptions and judgments in applying the guidance, including determining whether an arrangement includes a lease, determining the term of a lease when the contract has renewal or termination provisions and determining the discount rate.

The Company determines whether an arrangement is or includes a lease at contract inception by evaluating whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. If the Company has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from and can direct the use of, the identified asset for a period of time, the Company accounts for the contract as a lease.

The Company uses the information available at the lease commencement date to determine the discount rate for any new leases. The Company used a portfolio approach to determine its incremental borrowing rate. Lease contracts were grouped based on similar lease terms and economic environments in a manner in which the Company reasonably expects that the outcome from applying a portfolio approach does not differ materially from an individual lease approach. The Company estimated a collateralized discount rate for each portfolio of leases.

Supplemental information related to operating leases is as follows:

Risks and Uncertainties [Abstract]

Concentration of Risk

Concentration of Risk

The Company seeks to reduce its operating and leasing risks through the geographic diversification of its properties, tenant industry diversification, avoidance of dependency on a single asset and the creditworthiness of its tenants. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, no single tenant represented greater than 10% of rental revenues.

Cash and cash equivalent balances at certain institutions may exceed insurable amounts. The Company believes it mitigates this risk by investing in or through major financial institutions.

Equity

Shareholders' Equity:

At-The-Market Offering Program. The Company maintains an At-The-Market offering program ("ATM program") under which the Company can issue common shares, including through forward sales contracts. There were no common share issuances under the ATM program for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The following table summarizes common share issuances under the ATM program for the six months ended June 30, 2020:

	Six Months Ended June 30, 2020
	Shares Sold	Net Proceeds
2020 ATM Issuances	5,321,588	$54,000

The Company entered into forward sales contracts, under its ATM program, for the sale of 3,649,023 common shares during the six months ended June 30, 2021 that have not yet been settled. Subject to the Company's right to elect cash or net share settlement, the Company expects to settle the forward sales contracts by the maturity dates in February 2022. The Company did not enter into forward sales contracts as of June 30, 2020. As of June 30, 2021, an aggregate of 8,639,740 common shares were sold in forward sales contracts that have not been settled and had an aggregate settlement price of $93,339, which is subject to adjustment in accordance with the forward sales contracts.

In February 2021, the Company amended the terms of its ATM offering program, under which the Company may, from time to time, sell up to $350,000 of common shares over the term of the program. As of June 30, 2021, common shares with an aggregate value of $309,048 remain available for issuance under the ATM program.

Underwritten equity offerings. In May 2021, the Company entered into forward sales contracts for the sale of 16,000,000 common shares at a public offering price of $12.11 per common share in an underwritten equity offering that have not yet settled. Subject to the Company's rights to elect cash or net share settlement, the Company expects to settle the forward sales contracts by the maturity date in May 2022. As of June 30, 2021, the forward sales contracts had an aggregate settlement price of $191,829, which is subject to adjustment in accordance with the forward sales contracts.

During 2020, the Company issued 17,250,000 common shares at a public offering price of $9.60 per common share in an underwritten equity offering and generated net proceeds of approximately $164,000. The proceeds were used for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and pending the application of the proceeds were used to pay down all of the then outstanding balance under the Company's revolving credit facility.

Nonemployee Stock Based Compensation. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company issued 27,565 and 23,480, respectively, of fully vested common shares to non-management members of the Company's Board of Trustees with a fair value of $300 and $250, respectively.

Share Repurchase Program. In July 2015, the Company's Board of Trustees authorized the repurchase of up to 10,000,000 common shares and increased this authorization by 10,000,000 in 2018. This share repurchase program has no expiration date. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company repurchased and retired 1,329,940 common shares at an average price of $8.28 per common share under the share repurchase program. There were no common shares repurchased during the six months ended June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, 8,976,315 common shares remain available for repurchase under this authorization. The Company records a liability for repurchases that have not yet been settled as of the period end.

Series C Preferred Stock. The Company had 1,935,400 shares of Series C Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series C Preferred”) outstanding at June 30, 2021. The shares have a dividend of $3.25 per share per annum, have a liquidation preference of $96,770, and the Company, if certain common share prices are achieved, can force conversion into common shares of the Company. As of June 30, 2021, each share was convertible into 2.4339 common shares. This conversion ratio may increase over time if the Company's common share dividend exceeds certain quarterly thresholds.

If certain fundamental changes occur, holders may require the Company, in certain circumstances, to repurchase all or part of their shares of Series C Preferred. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain fundamental changes, the Company will, under certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate by a number of additional common shares or, in lieu thereof, may in certain circumstances elect to adjust the conversion rate upon the shares of Series C Preferred becoming convertible into shares of the public acquiring or surviving company.

The Company may, at the Company's option, cause shares of Series C Preferred to be automatically converted into that number of common shares that are issuable at the then prevailing conversion rate. The Company may exercise its conversion right only if, at certain times, the closing price of the Company's common shares equals or exceeds 125% of the then prevailing conversion price of the Series C Preferred.

Holders of shares of Series C Preferred generally have no voting rights, but will have limited voting rights if the Company fails to pay dividends for six or more quarters and under certain other circumstances. Upon conversion, the Company may choose to deliver the conversion value to investors in cash, common shares, or a combination of cash and common shares.

A summary of the changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to the Company's cash flow hedges is as follows:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020
Balance at beginning of period	$	(17,963)	$	(1,928)
Other comprehensive gain (loss) before reclassifications	3,486		(19,773)
Amounts of loss reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income to interest expense	2,436		971
Balance at end of period	$	(12,041)	$	(20,730)

Noncontrolling Interests. In conjunction with several of the Company's acquisitions in prior years, sellers were issued operating partnership units (“OP units”) as a form of consideration. All OP units, other than OP units owned by the Company, are redeemable for common shares at certain times, at the option of the holders, and are generally not otherwise mandatorily redeemable by the Company. The OP units are classified as a component of permanent equity as the Company has determined that the OP units are not redeemable securities as defined by GAAP. Each OP unit is currently redeemable at the holder's option for approximately 1.13 common shares, subject to future adjustments.

As of June 30, 2021, there were approximately 2,458,000 OP units outstanding other than OP units owned by the Company. All OP units receive distributions in accordance with the LCIF partnership agreement. To the extent that the Company's dividend per common share is less than the stated distribution per OP unit per the LCIF partnership agreement, the distributions per OP unit are reduced by the percentage reduction in the Company's dividend per common share. No OP units have a liquidation preference.

The following discloses the effects of changes in the Company's ownership interests in its noncontrolling interests:

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies

In addition to the commitments and contingencies disclosed elsewhere, the Company has the following commitments and contingencies.

The Company is obligated under certain tenant leases, including its proportionate share for leases for non-consolidated entities, to fund the expansion of the underlying leased properties. The Company, under certain circumstances, may guarantee to tenants the completion of base building improvements and the payment of tenant improvement allowances and lease commissions on behalf of its subsidiaries.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company has committed to develop four consolidated development projects and expects to incur approximately $90,533, $40,802 and $15,906 in 2021, 2022 and 2023, respectively, excluding noncontrolling interests' share, to substantially complete the construction of the projects. The remaining two development projects are owned by non-consolidated joint ventures. Due to the early stage of development of each non-consolidated project and the uncertainty of construction schedules at such stage, the Company is unable to estimate the timing of the required fundings for the non-consolidated development projects.

The Company and LCIF are parties to a funding agreement under which the Company may be required to fund distributions made on account of LCIF's OP units. Pursuant to the funding agreement, the parties agreed that, if LCIF does not have sufficient cash available to make a quarterly distribution to its limited partners in an amount in accordance with the partnership agreement, Lexington will fund the shortfall. Payments under the agreement will be made in the form of loans to LCIF and will bear interest at prevailing rates as determined by the Company in its discretion but, no less than the applicable federal rate. LCIF's right to receive these loans will expire if no OP units remain outstanding and all such loans are repaid. No amounts have been advanced under this agreement.

From time to time, the Company is directly or indirectly involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes, based on currently available information, and after consultation with legal counsel, that although the outcomes of those normal course proceedings are uncertain, the results of such proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Company and Financial Statement Presentation (Policies)

6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2021

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. The Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with GAAP. The financial statements reflect the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Variable Interest Entity

The Company consolidates the wholly-owned subsidiaries, partnerships and joint ventures which it controls (i) through voting rights or similar rights or (ii) by means other than voting rights if the Company is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity ("VIE"). Entities which the Company does not control and entities which are VIEs in which the Company is not a primary beneficiary are accounted for under appropriate GAAP.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes lease revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease unless another systematic and rational basis is more representative of the time pattern in which the use benefit is derived from the leased property. Revenue is recognized on a contractual basis for leases with escalations tied to a consumer price index with no floor. The Company evaluates the collectability of its rental payments and recognizes revenue on a cash basis when the Company believes it is no longer probable that it will receive substantially all of the remaining lease payments. Renewal options in leases with rental terms that are lower than those in the primary term are excluded from the calculation of straight-line rent if the renewals are not reasonably certain. If the Company funds tenant improvements and the improvements are deemed to be owned by the Company, revenue recognition will commence when the improvements are substantially completed and possession or control of the space is turned over to the tenant. If the Company determines that the tenant allowances are lease incentives, the Company commences revenue recognition when possession or control of the space is turned over to the tenant for tenant work to begin. The lease incentive is recorded as a deferred expense and amortized as a reduction of revenue on a straight-line basis over the respective lease term. The Company recognizes lease termination fees as rental revenue in the period received and writes off unamortized lease-related intangible and other lease-related account balances, provided there are no further Company obligations under the lease. Otherwise, such fees and balances are recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining obligation period with the termination payments being recorded as a component of rent receivable-deferred on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates. Management has made a number of significant estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses to prepare these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. These estimates and assumptions are based on management's best estimates and judgment. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment. Management adjusts such estimates when facts and circumstances dictate. The most significant estimates made include the recoverability of current and deferred accounts receivable, allocation of property purchase price to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the determination of VIEs and which entities should be consolidated, the determination of impairment of long-lived assets and equity method investments, valuation of derivative financial instruments, valuation of awards granted under compensation plans, the determination of the incremental borrowing rate for leases where the Company is the lessee and the useful lives of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Cost Capitalization

Cost Capitalization. The Company capitalizes interest and direct and indirect project costs associated with the initial construction of a property up to the time the property is substantially complete and ready for its intended use within investments in real estate under construction in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition, the Company capitalizes operating costs, including real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, that have been allocated to vacant space based on the square footage of the portion of the building not held available for immediate occupancy during the extended lease-up periods after the construction of the building shell has been completed if costs are being incurred to ready the vacant space for its intended use. If costs and activities incurred to ready the vacant space cease, then cost capitalization is also discontinued until such activities are resumed. Once construction has been completed on a vacant space, project costs are no longer capitalized.

Restricted Cash

Restricted Cash. Restricted cash is comprised primarily of cash balances held by a qualified intermediary and operating cash reserves held at one property.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements. The Company follows the guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("Topic 820"), to determine the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments. Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three levels: Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities; Level 2 - observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted in active markets, but corroborated by market data; and Level 3 - unobservable inputs, which are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. In determining fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible, as well as considering counterparty credit risk. The Company has formally elected to apply the portfolio exception within Topic 820 with respect to measuring counterparty risk for all of its derivative transactions subject to master netting arrangements.The Company estimates the fair value of its real estate assets, including non-consolidated real estate assets, by using income and market valuation techniques. The Company may estimate fair values using market information such as recent sale contracts (Level 2 inputs) or recent sale offers or discounted cash flow models, which primarily rely on Level 3 inputs. The cash flow models include estimated cash inflows and outflows over a specified holding period. These cash flows may include contractual rental revenues, projected future rental revenues and expenses and forecasted tenant improvements and lease commissions based upon market conditions determined through discussion with local real estate professionals, experience the Company has with its other owned properties in such markets and expectations for growth. Capitalization rates and discount rates utilized in these models are estimated by management based upon rates that management believes to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for the respective properties based upon an analysis of factors such as property and tenant quality, geographical location and local supply and demand observations.

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional, applies for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effect of) reference rate reform on financial reporting, in response to concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates, and, particularly, the risk of cessation of LIBOR and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. As of March 31, 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. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur. In July 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-05, Leases (Topic 842): Lessors-Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments, to amend the guidance to provide alternative accounting for sales type and direct finance leases with variable lease payments. The amendments in ASU 2021-05 amend the accounting guidance to allow lessors to classify and account for a lease with variable leases payments that do not depend on a reference index or a rate as an operating lease if certain criteria are met. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 with early adoption permitted. The Company does not currently have any leases that are classified as sales-type or direct finance leases. Therefore, the Company determined that it will apply the amendment on a prospective basis to applicable leases that commence or are modified on or after July 1, 2021.

Lessor

Lessor

Lexington’s lease portfolio as a lessor primarily includes general purpose, single-tenant net-leased industrial and office real estate assets. Most of the Company’s leases require tenants to pay fixed annual rental payments that escalate on an annual basis and variable payments for other operating expenses, such as real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance ("CAM"), and utilities, that are based on the actual expenses incurred.

Certain leases allow for the tenant to renew the lease term upon expiration or earlier. Periods covered by a renewal option are included within the lease term only when renewals are deemed to be reasonably certain. Certain leases allow for the tenant to terminate the lease before the expiration of lease term and certain leases provide the tenant with the right to purchase the leased property at fair market value or a stipulated price upon expiration of the lease term or before.

Accounting guidance under Topic 842 requires the Company to make certain assumptions and judgments in applying the guidance, including determining whether an arrangement includes a lease and determining the lease term when the contract has renewal, purchase or early termination provisions.

The Company analyzes its accounts receivable, customer creditworthiness and current economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the collectability of the lessee's total accounts receivable balance on a lease by lease basis. In addition, tenants in bankruptcy are analyzed and considerations are made in connection with the expected pre-petition and post-petition claims. If a lessee's accounts receivable balance is considered uncollectable, the Company will write-off the receivable balances associated with the lease to rental revenue and cease to recognize lease income, including straight-line rent, unless cash is received. If the Company subsequently determines that it is probable it will collect substantially all of the lessee's remaining lease payments under the lease term; the Company will reinstate the straight-line balance adjusting for the amount related to the period when the lease was accounted for on a cash basis. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company wrote off a deferred rent receivable balance of $615, as a reduction of rental revenue, related to a tenant that dissolved and surrendered its leased premises in an industrial property located in the Columbus, Ohio market.

Certain tenants have been experiencing financial difficulties as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company wrote off an aggregate deferred rent receivable balance of $1,360, as a reduction of rental revenue, related to tenants with rent collectability concerns. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company wrote off an aggregate of $334 and $40, respectively, accounts receivable relating to certain tenants suffering from the current economic conditions.

The Company determined that the lease and non-lease components in its leases are a single lease component, which is, therefore, being recognized as rental revenue in its unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The primary non-lease service is included within rental revenue is CAM services provided as part of the Company’s real estate leases. Topic 842 requires that the Company capitalize, as initial direct costs, only those costs that are incurred due to the execution of a lease. As of June 30, 2020, the Company incurred $29 of costs that were not incremental to the execution of leases, which are included in property operating expenses on its unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company incurred no leasing costs that were not incremental for the execution of leases as of June 30, 2021.

The Company manages the risk associated with the residual value of its leased properties by including contract clauses that make tenants responsible for surrendering the space in good condition upon lease termination, holding a diversified portfolio, and other activities. The Company does not have residual value guarantees on specific properties.

Lessee

Lessee

The Company, as lessee, has ground leases, corporate leases for office space, and office equipment leases. All leases were classified as operating leases as of June 30, 2021. The leases have remaining lease terms of up to 42 years, some of which include options to extend the leases in 5 to 10-year increments for up to 52 years. Renewal periods are included in the lease term only when renewal is deemed to be reasonably certain. The lease term also includes periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise the termination option. The Company measures its lease payments by including fixed rental payments and variable rental payments that tie to an index or a rate, such as CPI. The Company recognizes lease expense for its operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease expense not included in the lease payment measurement as incurred.

The accounting guidance under Topic 842 requires the Company to make certain assumptions and judgments in applying the guidance, including determining whether an arrangement includes a lease, determining the term of a lease when the contract has renewal or termination provisions and determining the discount rate.

The Company determines whether an arrangement is or includes a lease at contract inception by evaluating whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. If the Company has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from and can direct the use of, the identified asset for a period of time, the Company accounts for the contract as a lease.

The Company uses the information available at the lease commencement date to determine the discount rate for any new leases. The Company used a portfolio approach to determine its incremental borrowing rate. Lease contracts were grouped based on similar lease terms and economic environments in a manner in which the Company reasonably expects that the outcome from applying a portfolio approach does not differ materially from an individual lease approach. The Company estimated a collateralized discount rate for each portfolio of leases.
