EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 of Regency Centers Corporation and Regency Centers, L.P. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to “Regency Centers Corporation” or the “Parent Company” mean Regency Centers Corporation and its controlled subsidiaries; and references to “Regency Centers, L.P.” or the “Operating Partnership” mean Regency Centers, L.P. and its controlled subsidiaries. The term “the Company” or “Regency” means the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, collectively.

The Parent Company is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) and the general partner of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership's capital includes general and limited common Partnership Units (“Units”). As of June 30, 2015, the Parent Company owned approximately 99.8% of the Units in the Operating Partnership and the remaining limited Units are owned by investors. The Parent Company owns all of the Series 6 and 7 Preferred Units of the Operating Partnership. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company has exclusive control of the Operating Partnership's day-to-day management.

The Company believes combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership into this single report provides the following benefits:

• enhances investors' understanding of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;  

• eliminates duplicative disclosure and provides a more streamlined and readable presentation; and  

• creates time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports. 

Management operates the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership as one business. The management of the Parent Company consists of the same individuals as the management of the Operating Partnership. These individuals are officers of the Parent Company and employees of the Operating Partnership.

The Company believes it is important to understand the few differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership in the context of how the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership operate as a consolidated company. The Parent Company is a REIT, whose only material asset is its ownership of partnership interests of the Operating Partnership. As a result, the Parent Company does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, issuing public equity from time to time and guaranteeing certain debt of the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company does not hold any indebtedness, but guarantees all of the unsecured public debt and approximately 15% of the secured debt of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership holds all the assets of the Company and retains the ownership interests in the Company's joint ventures. Except for net proceeds from public equity issuances by the Parent Company, which are contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for partnership units, the Operating Partnership generates all remaining capital required by the Company's business. These sources include the Operating Partnership's operations, its direct or indirect incurrence of indebtedness, and the issuance of partnership units.

Stockholders' equity, partners' capital, and noncontrolling interests are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of the Parent Company and those of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership's capital includes general and limited common Partnership Units, and Series 6 and 7 Preferred Units owned by the Parent Company. The limited partners' units in the Operating Partnership owned by third parties are accounted for in partners' capital in the Operating Partnership's financial statements and outside of stockholders' equity in noncontrolling interests in the Parent Company's financial statements. The Series 6 and 7 Preferred Units owned by the Parent Company are eliminated in consolidation in the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Parent Company and are classified as preferred units of general partner in the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Operating Partnership.

In order to highlight the differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, there are sections in this report that separately discuss the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, including separate financial statements, controls and procedures sections, and separate Exhibit 31 and 32 certifications. In the sections that combine disclosure for the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, this report refers to actions or holdings as being actions or holdings of the Company. 

As general partner with control of the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting purposes, and the Parent Company does not have assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership. Therefore, while stockholders' equity and partners' capital differ as discussed above, the assets and liabilities of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership are the same on their respective financial statements.

REGENCY CENTERS CORPORATION AND REGENCY CENTERS, L.P.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2015

1. Organization and Principles of Consolidation

General

Regency Centers Corporation (the “Parent Company”) began its operations as a Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) in 1993 and is the general partner of Regency Centers, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”). The Parent Company currently owns approximately 99.8% of the outstanding common Partnership Units of the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company engages in the ownership, management, leasing, acquisition, and development of retail shopping centers through the Operating Partnership, and has no other assets or liabilities other than through its investment in the Operating Partnership. As of June 30, 2015, the Parent Company, the Operating Partnership and their controlled subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (the "Company” or “Regency”) directly owned 200 retail shopping centers and held partial interests in an additional 119 retail shopping centers through investments in real estate partnerships (also referred to as "joint ventures" or "co-investment partnerships").

The financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. These adjustments are considered to be of a normal recurring nature.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2018, with adoption as early as January 1, 2017 permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (Topic 810), which requires amendments to both the variable interest entity ("VIE") and voting models. The amendments (i) rescind the indefinite deferral of certain aspects of accounting standards relating to consolidations and provide a permanent scope exception for registered money market funds and similar unregistered money market funds, (ii) modify the identification of variable interests (fees paid to a decision maker or service provider), the VIE characteristics for a limited partnership or similar entity and primary beneficiary determination under the VIE model, and (iii) eliminate the presumption within the current voting model that a general partner controls a limited partnership or similar entity. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015 with early adoption permitted. The amendments may be applied using either a modified retrospective or full retrospective approach. The Company currently intends to adopt the standard during the first quarter of 2016 and does not currently anticipate a material impact upon adoption.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30), which simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs by requiring that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The amendments in this ASU are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt this ASU in the first quarter of 2016, which will result in a decrease to total assets and liabilities of the net unamortized balance of debt issuance costs, which is $6.4 million at June 30, 2015, exclusive of the line of credit costs.

⁽¹⁾ An interest rate swap is in place to establish a fixed interest rate on $28.1 million of this variable rate mortgage. See note 6.

The weighted average contractual interest rates were 5.4% and 1.1% on the fixed rate and variable rate debt, respectively, at June 30, 2015. Significant financing activity since December 31, 2014, excluding scheduled principal payments, includes:

• The Company repaid three mortgages totaling $76.0 million that were scheduled to mature during 2015;

• The Company drew $2.4 million on a construction loan for the ongoing redevelopment of a shopping center in a consolidated real estate partnership;

• The Company borrowed $45.0 million, net of repayments, on its $800.0 million Line of Credit (the "Line"); and

• In May 2015, the Company amended its Line to extend the maturity to May 13, 2019 and reduced the applicable interest rate. Based on current credit ratings, the Line bears interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 92.5 basis points on any drawn balance plus an annual 15 basis point facility fee on the entire $800.0 million capacity. The interest rates are based on the higher of the Company's current corporate credit ratings issued by Moody's or S&P. Further, the Company has options to extend the maturity for two additional six-month periods.

• Subsequent to June 30, 2015, the Company repaid the $350.0 million fixed rate unsecured loan that matured.

⁽¹⁾ Represents the date specified in the agreement for either optional or mandatory early termination which will result in cash settlement.

⁽²⁾ Derivatives in an asset position are included within Other Assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, while those in a liability position are included within Accounts Payable and Other Liabilities.

These derivative financial instruments are all interest rate swaps, which are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and currently does not have any derivatives that are not designated as hedges. The Company has master netting agreements; however, the Company does not have multiple derivatives subject to a single master netting agreement with the same counterparties. Therefore, none are offset in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet.

The Company expects to issue new debt in 2015 and 2017. In order to mitigate the risk of interest rate volatility, the Company previously entered into $220 million of forward starting interest rate swaps to partially hedge the new debt expected to be issued in 2015 and another $220 million of forward starting interest rate swaps to partially hedge the new debt expected to be issued in 2017. These interest rate swaps lock in the 10-year treasury rate and swap spread at a weighted average fixed rate of 2.67% and 3.48%, respectively. A current market based credit spread applicable to Regency will be added to the locked in fixed rate at time of issuance that will determine the final bond yield.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI") and 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 within interest expense.

7.    Fair Value Measurements

(a) Disclosure of Fair Value of Financial Instruments

All financial instruments of the Company are reflected in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets at amounts which, in management's estimation, reasonably approximate their fair values, except for the following:

	June 30, 2015			December 31, 2014
(in thousands)	Carrying Amount		Fair Value	Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Financial assets:
Notes receivable	$	12,281	12,165	$	12,132	11,980
Financial liabilities:
Notes payable	$	1,868,700	1,990,000	$	1,946,357	2,116,000
Unsecured credit facilities	$	120,000	120,000	$	75,000	75,000

The table above reflects carrying amounts in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets under the indicated captions. The above fair values approximate the amounts that would be received from selling those assets or that would be paid to transfer those liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. These fair value measurements maximize the use of observable inputs. However, in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date, the fair value measurement reflects the Company's own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The Company develops its judgments based on the best information available at the measurement date, including expected cash flows, appropriately risk-adjusted discount rates, and available observable and unobservable inputs. Service providers involved in fair value measurements are evaluated for competency and qualifications on an ongoing basis. As considerable judgment is often necessary to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments, the fair

19

REGENCY CENTERS CORPORATION AND REGENCY CENTERS, L.P.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2015

values presented above are not necessarily indicative of amounts that will be realized upon disposition of the financial instruments.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments:

Notes Receivable

The fair value of the Company's notes receivable is estimated by calculating the present value of future contractual cash flows discounted at interest rates available for notes of the same terms and maturities, adjusted for counter-party specific credit risk. The fair value of notes receivable was determined primarily using Level 3 inputs of the fair value hierarchy, which considered counter-party credit risk and loan to value ratio on the underlying property securing the note receivable.

Notes Payable

The fair value of the Company's notes payable is estimated by discounting future cash flows of each instrument at rates that reflect the current market rates available to the Company for debt of the same terms and maturities. Fixed rate loans assumed in connection with real estate acquisitions are recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements at fair value at the time the property is acquired. The fair value of the notes payable was determined using Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy.

Unsecured Credit Facilities

The fair value of the Company's unsecured credit facilities is estimated based on the interest rates currently offered to the Company by financial institutions. The fair value of the credit facilities was determined using Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy.

The following interest rate ranges were used by the Company to estimate the fair value of its financial instruments:

	June 30, 2015		December 31, 2014
	Low	High	Low	High
Notes receivable	7.3%	7.3%	7.4%	7.4%
Notes payable	1.6%	3.8%	0.9%	3.4%
Unsecured credit facilities	1.1%	1.2%	1.3%	1.3%

(b) Fair Value Measurements

The following financial instruments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Trading Securities Held in Trust

The Company has investments in marketable securities, which are assets of the non-qualified deferred compensation plan ("NQDCP"), that are classified as trading securities held in trust on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the trading securities held in trust was determined using quoted prices in active markets, which are considered Level 1 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. Changes in the value of trading securities are recorded within net investment (income) loss from deferred compensation plan in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Available-for-Sale Securities

Available-for-sale securities consist of investments in certificates of deposit and corporate bonds, and are recorded at fair value using matrix pricing methods to estimate fair value, which are considered Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. Unrealized gains or losses on these securities are recognized through other comprehensive income.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2015

Interest Rate Derivatives

The fair value of the Company's interest rate derivatives is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty's nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements.

Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. The Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its interest rate swaps. As a result, the Company determined that its interest rate swaps valuation in its entirety is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The following tables present the placement in the fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

	Fair Value Measurements as of June 30, 2015
(in thousands)				Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets	Significant Other Observable Inputs		Significant Unobservable Inputs

REGENCY CENTERS CORPORATION AND REGENCY CENTERS, L.P.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2015

12.    Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is involved in litigation on a number of matters and is subject to certain claims, which arise in the normal course of business, none of which, in the opinion of management, is expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. Legal fees are expensed as incurred.

The Company is also subject to numerous environmental laws and regulations as they apply to real estate pertaining to chemicals used by the dry cleaning industry, the existence of asbestos in older shopping centers, and underground petroleum storage tanks. The Company believes that the ultimate disposition of currently known environmental matters will not have a material effect on its financial position, liquidity, or operations; however, it can give no assurance that existing environmental studies with respect to the shopping centers have revealed all potential environmental liabilities; that any previous owner, occupant or tenant did not create any material environmental condition not known to it; that the current environmental condition of the shopping centers will not be affected by tenants and occupants, by the condition of nearby properties, or by unrelated third parties; or that changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations or their interpretation will not result in additional environmental liability to the Company.

The Company has the right to issue letters of credit under the Line up to an amount not to exceed $50.0 million, which reduces the credit availability under the Line. These letters of credit are primarily issued as collateral to facilitate the construction of development projects. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had $5.9 million in letters of credit outstanding.

These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the real estate industry and markets in which the Company operates, and management's beliefs and assumptions. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, changes in national and local economic conditions; financial difficulties of tenants; competitive market conditions, including timing and pricing of acquisitions and sales of properties and building pads ("out-parcels"); changes in leasing activity and market rents; timing of development starts; meeting development schedules; natural disasters in geographic areas in which we operate; cost of environmental remediation; our inability to exercise voting control over the co-investment partnerships through which we own many of our properties; technology disruptions. For additional information, see “Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto of Regency Centers Corporation and Regency Centers, L.P. appearing elsewhere herein. We do not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to such forward-looking statements to reflect events or uncertainties after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of uncertain events.

Overview of Our Strategy

Regency Centers began its operations as a publicly-traded REIT in 1993, and currently owns direct or partial interests in 319 shopping centers, the majority of which are grocery-anchored community and neighborhood centers. Our centers are located in the top markets of 27 states and the District of Columbia, and contain 38.0 million square feet of gross leasable area. All of our operating, investing, and financing activities are performed through the Operating Partnership, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and through its co-investment partnerships. The Parent Company currently owns approximately 99.8% of the outstanding common partnership units of the Operating Partnership.

Our mission is to be the preeminent grocery-anchored shopping center owner and developer through:

• First-rate performance of our exceptionally merchandised and located national portfolio;

• Value-enhancing services of the best team of professionals in the business; and

• Creation of superior growth in shareholder value.

Our strategic objectives are to:

• Sustain average annual 3% same-property net operating income (“NOI”) growth from a high-quality portfolio of community and neighborhood shopping centers;

• Develop new high quality shopping centers at attractive returns on investment from a disciplined development program;

• Cost-effectively enhance our already strong balance sheet to reduce our cost of capital, provide financial flexibility and weather economic downturns; and

• Engage a talented and dedicated team that operates efficiently and is recognized as a leader in the real estate industry and sustainability initiatives.

We earn revenues and generate cash flow by leasing space in our shopping centers to grocery stores, major retail anchors, restaurants, side-shop retailers, and service providers, as well as ground leasing or selling building pads to these same types of tenants. We experience growth in revenues by increasing occupancy and rental rates in our existing shopping centers and by acquiring and developing new shopping centers.

We grow our shopping center portfolio through acquisitions of operating centers and new shopping center development. We will continue to use our development capabilities, market presence, and anchor relationships to invest in value-added new developments and redevelopments of existing centers. We fund our acquisition and development activity from various capital sources including operating cash flow, property sales, equity offerings, new financing, and co-investment real estate partnerships. Co-investment real estate partnerships provide us with an additional capital source for shopping center acquisitions, developments, and redevelopments, as well as the opportunity to earn fees for asset management, property management, and other investing and financing services.

% Leased – Operating	95.9%	95.9%
Anchor	98.7%	98.8%
Shop space	91.4%	91.2%

We continue to see increases in shop space occupancy. The slight decrease in occupancy within our anchor space relates to redevelopment.

⁽²⁾ Totals for base rent, tenant improvements, and leasing commissions reflect the weighted average per square foot ("PSF").

Base rent PSF continues to improve in both new and renewal leasing activity. While there is a slight decrease in anchor space renewal rates, they still represents a 3.5% increase over prior rents for those units.  

29

Significant Tenants and Concentrations of Risk

We seek to reduce our operating and leasing risks through geographic diversification and by avoiding dependence on any single property, market, or tenant. The following table summarizes our three most significant tenants, each of which is a grocery tenant, occupying our shopping centers:

	June 30, 2015
Grocery Anchor	Number of Stores (1)	Percentage of Company- owned GLA (2)	Percentage  of Annualized Base Rent (2)
Kroger	55	8.7%	4.5%
Publix	46	6.5%	3.7%
Safeway/Albertsons	50	5.0%	3.0%
(1) Includes stores owned by grocery anchors that are attached to our centers.
(2) Includes Regency's pro-rata share of Unconsolidated Properties and excludes those owned by anchors.

Bankruptcies

Although base rent is supported by long-term lease contracts, tenants who file bankruptcy may have the legal right to reject any or all of their leases and close related stores. In the event that a tenant with a significant number of leases in our shopping centers files bankruptcy and cancels its leases, we could experience a significant reduction in our revenues. We monitor the operating performance and rent collections of all tenants in our shopping centers, especially those tenants operating retail formats that are experiencing significant changes in competition, business practice, and store closings in other locations. We are not currently aware of the pending bankruptcy or announced store closings of any tenants in our shopping centers that would individually cause a material reduction in our revenues, and no tenant represents more than 5% of our annual base rent on a pro-rata basis.

Our management team devotes significant time to monitoring consumer preferences, shopping behaviors, and demographics to anticipate both challenges and opportunities in the changing retail industry that may affect our tenants. As a result of our findings, we may reduce new leasing, suspend leasing, or curtail the allowance for the construction of leasehold improvements within a certain retail category or to a specific retailer.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our Parent Company has no capital commitments other than its guarantees of the commitments of our Operating Partnership. The Parent Company will from time to time access the capital markets for the purpose of issuing new equity and will simultaneously contribute all of the offering proceeds to the Operating Partnership in exchange for additional partnership units. All debt is held by our Operating Partnership or by our co-investment partnerships. The following table represents the remaining available capacity under our at the market ("ATM") equity program and unsecured credit facilities:

(in thousands)	June 30, 2015
ATM equity program
Total capacity	$	200,000
Remaining capacity	$	95,000
Term Loan (1)
Total capacity	$	165,000

Line of Credit (the "Line")
Total capacity	$	800,000
Remaining capacity (2)	$	749,100
Maturity (3)	May 13, 2019
(1) The Company has $75.0 million outstanding and may elect to borrow up to an additional $90.0 million through August 31, 2015.
(2) Net of letters of credit
(3) The Company has the option to extend the maturity for two additional six-month periods.

In January 2015, the Parent Company entered into an underwritten public offering for 2.875 million shares of its common stock at a price of $67.40 per share which will result in gross proceeds of approximately $193.8 million, before any underwriting discount and offering expenses. In connection with this offering, the Parent Company entered into a forward sale agreement (the "Forward Equity Offering") with an affiliate of Wells Fargo Securities, LLC for the underwritten shares. The Forward Equity Offering will settle on one or more dates occurring no later than 12 months after the date of the offering.

The following table summarizes net cash flows related to operating, investing, and financing activities of the Company:

	Six months ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2015			2014		Change
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	127,413		119,596		7,817
Net cash used in investing activities	(76,706		)	(162,636	)	85,930
Net cash used in financing activities	(137,369		)	(908	)	(136,461	)
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents	$	(86,662	)	(43,948	)	(42,714	)
Total cash and cash equivalents	$	27,114		36,736		(9,622	)

Net cash provided by operating activities:

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $7.8 million due to:

• $12.6 million increase in cash from operating income; and,

• $4.0 million increase in operating cash flow distributions from our unconsolidated real estate partnerships as several redevelopment projects were completed and began generating cash flows; offset by

• $4.6 million decrease as a result of the cash generated from settlement of the treasury hedges in May 2014 in connection with our bond issuance; and,

• $4.1 million net decrease in cash due to timing of cash receipts and payments related to operating activities.

31

We operate our business such that we expect net cash provided by operating activities will provide the necessary funds to pay our distributions to our common and preferred share and unit holders, which were $101.3 million and $96.6 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Our dividend distribution policy is set by our Board of Directors who monitors our financial position. Our Board of Directors recently declared our quarterly dividend on shares of our common stock of $0.485 per share, payable on September 2, 2015. Future dividends will be declared at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will be subject to capital requirements and availability. We plan to continue paying an aggregate amount of distributions to our stock and unit holders that, at a minimum, meet the requirements to continue qualifying as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes.

Net cash used in investing activities:

Net cash used in investing activities decreased by $85.9 million, primarily due to the Company completing no shopping center acquisitions in 2015:

	Six months ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2015			2014		Change

Net cash used in investing activities	$	(76,706	)	(162,636	)	85,930

Significant changes in investing and divesting activities include:

• We did not acquire any operating properties during 2015, compared to the acquisition of four shopping centers for $79.4 million in the same period of 2014.

• We invested an additional $15.4 million on real estate development and capital improvements, as further discussed in the table below.

• We received proceeds of $26.6 million from the sale of two shopping centers in 2015, compared to $7.8 million for two shopping centers and three out-parcels during 2014.

• Distributions from our unconsolidated real estate partnerships include return of capital from sales or financing proceeds. The $15.0 million received in 2015 is primarily driven by $12.3 million of proceeds from the sale of one shopping center with a co-investment partner and $2.3 million of financing proceeds. During 2014, we received $21.5 million from selling four operating properties and land held in partnerships.

• Acquisition of securities and proceeds from sale of securities result from investing activities, including our non-qualified deferred compensation plan.

32

We plan to continue developing and redeveloping shopping centers for long-term investment purposes. We deployed capital of $109.1 million for the development, redevelopment, and improvement of our real estate properties as comprised of the following:

	Six months ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2015		2014	Change
Capital expenditures:
Land acquisitions	$	—	17,282	(17,282	)
Building and tenant improvements	13,106		13,634	(528	)
Redevelopments	24,351		14,299	10,052
Developments	59,494		37,007	22,487
Capitalized interest	4,015		3,272	743
Capitalized direct compensation	8,152		8,270	(118	)
Real estate development and capital improvements	$	109,118	93,764	15,354

• There were no land acquisitions during 2015, as compared to the acquisition of two land parcels for $17.3 million during 2014.

• Redevelopment expenditures were higher during 2015 due to the timing, magnitude, and number of projects currently in process. We intend to continuously improve our portfolio of shopping centers through redevelopment which can include adjacent land acquisition, existing building expansion, new out-parcel building construction, and tenant improvement costs.  The size and magnitude of each redevelopment project varies with each redevelopment plan. 

• Development expenditures were higher during 2015 due to the larger size of and progress towards completion of our development projects. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had six and seven development projects, respectively, that were either under construction or in lease up.

We have a staff of employees who directly support our development and redevelopment program. Internal compensation costs directly attributable to these activities are capitalized as part of each project as summarized in the table above. Changes in the level of future development and redevelopment activity could adversely impact results of operations by reducing the amount of internal costs for development and redevelopment projects that may be capitalized. A 10% reduction in development and redevelopment activity without a corresponding reduction in the compensation costs directly related to our development and redevelopment activities could result in an additional charge to net income of $1.1 million per year.

Net cash used in financing activities:

Net cash flows used in financing activities increased by $136.5 million during 2015, for dividend payments and debt repayments with no offsetting debt issuance, as follows:

Net cash used in financing activities	$	(137,369	)	(908	)	(136,461	)

Significant financing activities during the six months endedJune 30, 2015 and 2014 include:

• During 2015, we borrowed $45.0 million on our Line, net of repayments, as compared to the $10.0 million during 2014.

34

• During the six months endedJune 30, 2015, we spent $78.9 million to repay three mortgages that were scheduled to mature in 2015 in addition to scheduled principal payments, as compared to $160.0 million in 2014, of which $150.0 million was used to repay maturing ten-year unsecured public debt, $6.6 million to repay one mortgage scheduled to mature in 2014, and scheduled principal payments.

We endeavor to maintain a high percentage of unencumbered assets. At June 30, 2015, 80.1% of our wholly-owned real estate assets were unencumbered. Such assets allow us to access the secured and unsecured debt markets and to maintain availability on the Line. Our coverage ratio, including our pro-rata share of our partnerships, was 2.7 times for the trailing four quarters ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. We define our coverage ratio as earnings before interest, taxes, investment transaction profits net of deal costs, depreciation and amortization (“Core EBITDA”) divided by the sum of the gross interest and scheduled mortgage principal paid to our lenders plus dividends paid to our preferred stockholders.

Through the remainder of 2015, we estimate that we will require approximately $458.7 million of cash, including $91.4 million to complete in-process developments and redevelopments, $350.1 million to repay maturing debt and approximately $17.2 million to fund our pro-rata share of estimated capital contributions to our co-investment partnerships for repayment of debt. If we start new developments or redevelop additional shopping centers, our cash requirements will increase. To meet our cash requirements, we will utilize cash generated from operations, proceeds from the sale of real estate, proceeds from settling our $193.8 million Forward Equity Offering, up to $839.1 million available borrowings from our Line and Term Loan, and when the capital markets are favorable, proceeds from the sale of equity under our remaining $95.0 million ATM program and the issuance of new long-term debt.

We continuously monitor the capital markets and evaluate our ability to issue new debt to repay maturing debt or fund our commitments. Based upon the current capital markets, our current credit ratings, and the number of high quality, unencumbered properties that we own which could collateralize borrowings, we currently expect that we will successfully issue new secured or unsecured debt to fund our obligations, as needed.

On August 3, 2015, we repaid $350.0 million of fixed rate, unsecured debt at maturity, from a $350.0 million draw on our unsecured credit facilities.  We currently expect to repay the credit facilities draw using proceeds from partially settling the Forward Equity Offering and issuing new long-term debt during 2015.  We also have $400.0 million of fixed rate, unsecured debt maturing June 15, 2017, which we expect to repay in 2017 from the proceeds of issuing new long-term debt, draws on the Line and other proceeds.  In order to mitigate the risk of interest rate volatility, we have $220.0 million of forward starting interest rate swaps to partially hedge any new long-term debt issued in 2015 and an additional $220.0 million of forward starting interest rate swaps to partially hedge any new long-term debt issued in 2017. These interest rate swaps lock in the 10-year treasury rate and swap spread at a weighted average fixed rate of 2.67% and 3.48%, respectively. A current market based credit spread applicable to Regency will be added to the locked in fixed rate at time of issuance that will determine the final bond yield. At June 30, 2015, the fair value of the interest rate swaps that are expected to settle in 2015 is a $3.6 million obligation.

Our Line, Term Loan, and unsecured loans require that we remain in compliance with various covenants, which are described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, with the Minimum Tangible Net Worth covenant removed from our Unsecured Credit Facilities. We are in compliance with these covenants at June 30, 2015 and expect to remain in compliance.

Investments in Real Estate Partnerships

At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had investments in real estate partnerships of $309.5 million and $333.2 million, respectively. The following table is a summary of the unconsolidated combined assets and liabilities of these co-investment partnerships and our pro-rata share:

At June 30, 2015, our investments in real estate partnerships had notes payable of $1.5 billion maturing through 2025, of which 99.2% had a weighted average fixed interest rate of 5.4%, and the remaining notes payable float over LIBOR and had a weighted average variable interest rate of 1.8%. These loans are all non-recourse, and our pro-rata share was $505.6 million as of June 30, 2015. As notes payable mature, they will be repaid from proceeds from refinancing and partner capital contributions. We are obligated to contribute our pro-rata share to fund maturities if they are not refinanced. We believe that our partners are financially sound and have sufficient capital or access thereto to fund future capital requirements.  In the event that a co-investment partner was unable to fund its share of the capital requirements of the co-investment partnership, we would have the right, but not the obligation, to loan the defaulting partner the amount of its capital call. 

Management fee income

In addition to earning our pro-rata share of net income or loss in each of these co-investment partnerships, we receive fees, as shown below:

Results from Operations

Comparison of the three months ended June 30, 2015 to 2014:

Our revenues increased as summarized in the following table:

	Three months ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2015		2014	Change
Minimum rent	$	102,390	97,778	4,612
Percentage rent	300		545	(245	)
Recoveries from tenants	30,421		28,146	2,275
Other income	2,010		2,170	(160	)
Management, transaction, and other fees	6,008		6,253	(245	)
Total revenues	$	141,129	134,892	6,237

Minimum rent increased as follows:

• $200,000 increase due to the 2014 acquisitions of operating properties and $2.5 million increase from operations beginning at development properties; and

• $4.1 million increase from same properties driven by higher rental rates and rent paying occupancy growth (same property includes operating properties owned for the entirety of both calendar year periods being presented, including redevelopments);

• offset by a $2.2 million decrease from the sale of operating properties.

Recoveries from tenants represent reimbursements to us for tenants' pro-rata share of the operating, maintenance, and real estate tax expenses that we incur to operate our shopping centers. Recoveries from tenants increased as follows:

• $241,000 increase due to the 2014 acquisitions of operating properties and $579,000 increase from operations beginning at development properties; and

• $2.0 million increase in recoveries at same properties, which was driven by an increase in recoverable costs and an increase in our recovery ratio, driven by occupancy improvements;

• offset by $570,000 decrease from the sale of operating properties.

Changes in our operating expenses are summarized in the following table:

	Three months ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2015		2014	Change
Depreciation and amortization	$	36,225	36,023	202
Operating and maintenance	20,185		19,498	687
General and administrative	15,099		15,223	(124	)
Real estate taxes	15,667		14,898	769
Other operating expenses	1,779		1,795	(16	)
Total operating expenses	$	88,955	87,437	1,518

Operating and maintenance costs increased $687,000 attributable to the following:

• $431,000 increase related to operations beginning at development properties;

• $238,000 related to 2014 acquired properties; and

• $464,000 at same properties, primarily driven by snow removal costs;

• offset by $446,000 decrease for sold properties.

38

General and administrative expenses decreased $124,000 from a $667,000 reduction in value of participant obligations within the deferred compensation plan, offset by higher salaries, benefits and incentives.

Real estate taxes increased $769,000, due to

• $188,000 increase related to operations beginning at development properties;

• $124,000 related to 2014 acquired properties; and

• $665,000 at same properties from increased tax assessments;

• offset by $208,000 decrease from sold properties.

The following table presents the components of other expense (income):

	Three months ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2015			2014		Change
Interest expense, net
Interest on notes payable	$	25,856		26,121		(265	)
Interest on unsecured credit facilities	786			1,069		(283	)
Capitalized interest	(1,956		)	(1,631	)	(325	)
Hedge expense	2,252			2,351		(99	)
Interest income	(263		)	(465	)	202
Interest expense, net	26,675			27,445		(770	)
Net investment income	(367		)	(628	)	261
Total other expense (income)	$	26,308		26,817		(509	)

Our interest expense decreased mainly due to higher capitalized interest, which is based on higher cumulative costs incurred on development and redevelopment projects. Additional decreases resulted from lower average outstanding balances and variable interest rates on our unsecured credit facilities, and from reducing our notes payable.

The $261,000 decrease in net investment income is largely related to the change in the fair value of plan assets in the non-qualified deferred compensation plan, which is consistent with the change in plan liabilities included in general and administrative expenses above.

Our equity in income of investments in real estate partnerships decreased as follows:

(1) On August 13, 2013, Regency Retail Partners, LP (the "Fund") sold 100% of its interest in its entire portfolio of shopping centers to a third party. The Fund was dissolved following the final distribution of proceeds in 2014.

The decrease in our equity in income of investments in real estate partnerships is principally due to the sale of operating properties and land from the various partnerships during the periods:

• The GRIR partnership income increase of $3.4 million was driven by our $1.1 million pro-rata gain on one operating property sold during 2015 coupled with $1.7 million less pro-rata depreciation expense due to a redevelopment demolition in 2014.

• The RegCal partnership income decreased $583,000 this quarter as 2014 included $651,000 of pro-rata gain from the sale of an operating property during the three months ended June 30, 2014.

• Our other real estate partnerships sold an operating property which generated a pro-rata gain of $4.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2014.

The following represents the remaining components that comprised net income attributable to the common stockholders and unit holders:

	Three months ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2015			2014		Change

Net income attributable to common unit holders	$	32,541		25,535		7,006

During the three months ended June 30, 2015, we sold an operating property for a gain of $5.7 million, net of taxes, as compared to $1.7 million gain for an operating property sold during the three months ended June 30, 2014.

Comparison of the six months endedJune 30, 2015 to 2014:

Our revenues increased as summarized in the following table:

	Six months ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2015		2014	Change
Minimum rent	$	203,695	192,314	11,381
Percentage rent	2,108		1,930	178
Recoveries from tenants	59,356		55,687	3,669
Other income	4,123		5,670	(1,547	)
Management, transaction, and other fees	12,246		12,572	(326	)
Total revenues	$	281,528	268,173	13,355

Minimum rent increased as follows:

• $2.8 million increase due to the 2014 acquisitions of operating properties and $4.3 million increase from operations beginning at development properties; and

• $8.1 million increase from same properties driven by higher rental rates and rent paying occupancy growth;

• offset by a $3.8 million decrease from the sale of operating properties.

Recoveries from tenants represent reimbursements to us for tenants' pro-rata share of the operating, maintenance, and real estate tax expenses that we incur to operate our shopping centers. Recoveries from tenants increased as follows:

• $855,000 increase due to the 2014 acquisitions of operating properties and $1.2 million increase from operations beginning at development properties; and

• $2.5 million increase from same properties associated with higher recoverable costs and rent paying occupancy improvements;

• offset by $866,000 decrease from the sale of operating properties.

Other income, which consists of incidental income earned at our centers, decreased primarily as a result of a large settlement fee earned in the first quarter of 2014.

We earned fees, at market-based rates, for asset management, property management, leasing, acquisition, and financing services that we provided to our co-investment partnerships and third parties as follows:    

	Six months ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2015		2014	Change
Asset management fees	$	3,121	3,014	107
Property management fees	6,631		6,610	21

Changes in our operating expenses are summarized in the following table:

	Six months ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2015		2014	Change
Depreciation and amortization	$	72,218	73,929	(1,711	)
Operating and maintenance	41,358		40,003	1,355
General and administrative	31,477		29,421	2,056
Real estate taxes	30,798		29,697	1,101
Other operating expenses	2,943		3,968	(1,025	)
Total operating expenses	$	178,794	177,018	1,776

Depreciation and amortization decreased $1.7 million:

• $464,000 increase from acquisitions;

• $1.1 million increase from new development operations;

• offset by a $1.4 million decrease at same properties attributable to a large redevelopment beginning during 2014;

• and a $1.9 million decrease from disposals.

Operating and maintenance increased $1.4 million:

• $781,000 from acquisitions;

• $866,000 from new development operations; and

• $462,000 at same properties;

• partially offset by a decrease $754,000 from sold properties.

General and administrative expenses increased $2.1 million due to higher salaries, benefits and incentives of $2.3 million, offset by a reduction in value of participant obligations within the deferred compensation plan.

Real estate taxes increased $1.1 million:

• $555,000 from acquisitions,

• $531,000 from new development operations, and

• $421,000 at same properties,

• partially offset by a decrease of $406,000 from sold properties.

Other operating expenses decreased $1.0 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2015 primarily due to increases in transaction costs in the second quarter of 2014 due to property acquisitions and pursuit costs.

The following table presents the components of other expense (income):

	Six months ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2015			2014		Change
Interest expense, net
Interest on notes payable	$	51,748		51,758		(10	)

Net investment income	(1,000		)	(821	)	(179	)
Total other expense (income)	$	52,247		53,984		(1,737	)

Our interest expense decreased mainly due to:

• lower average outstanding balances and variable interest rates on our unsecured credit facilities;

• higher capitalized interest, which is based on higher cumulative costs incurred on development and redevelopment projects; and

• hedge expense decreased as our 2014 favorably settled forward starting hedges are amortizing into interest expense to reduce our overall bond interest yield.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we recognized a $225,000 impairment on three parcels of land. We did not have any impairments during the six months ended June 30, 2015.

Our equity in income of investments in real estate partnerships decreased as follows:

(1) On August 13, 2013, the Fund sold 100% of its interest in its entire portfolio of shopping centers to a third party. The Fund was dissolved following the final distribution of proceeds in 2014.

The $4.3 million decrease in our equity in income in investments in real estate partnerships for 2015, as compared to 2014, is largely attributed to:

• $4.2 million increase in pro-rata share of income from our GRIR partnership was driven by our $1.1 million pro-rata gain on one operating property sold during 2015 coupled with $1.7 million less pro-rata depreciation expense due to redevelopment activity in 2014;

• $424,000 pro-rata share of impairment losses recognized upon sale of two properties within Columbia II during 2014;

43

• $654,000 of pro-rata gain on one operating property disposed of within RegCal during 2014; and

• $8.4 million decrease within our Other investment partnerships driven by the gains on sale of two land parcels and one operating property during 2014.

The following represents the remaining components that comprise net income attributable to the common stockholders and unit holders:

Supplemental Earnings Information

We use certain non-GAAP performance measures, in addition to the required GAAP presentations, as we believe these measures are beneficial to us in improving the understanding of the Company's operational results among the investing public. We believe such measures make comparisons of other REITs' operating results to the Company's more meaningful. We continually evaluate the usefulness, relevance, and calculation of our reported non-GAAP performance measures to determine how best to provide relevant information to the public, and thus such reported measures could change.

The following are our definitions of Same Property Net Operating Income ("NOI"), Funds from Operations ("FFO"), and Core FFO, which we believe to be beneficial non-GAAP performance measures used in understanding our operational results:

Ÿ NOI is calculated as total property revenues (minimum rent, percentage rents, and recoveries from tenants and other income) less direct property operating expenses (operating and maintenance and real estate taxes) from the properties owned by us, and excludes corporate-level income (including management, transaction, and other fees), for the entirety of the periods presented.

• Pro-Rata information includes 100% of our consolidated properties plus our ownership interest in our unconsolidated real estate investment partnerships.

• Same Property information is provided for operating properties that were owned and operated for the entirety of both calendar year periods being compared and excludes Non-Same Properties and Properties in Development. A Non-Same Property is a property acquired, sold, or development property completed during either calendar year period being compared.

• Same Property NOI includes NOI for Same Properties, but excludes straight-line rental income, net of reserves, above and below market rent amortization, banking charges, and other fees. Same Property NOI is a key measure used by management in evaluating the performance of our properties.

Ÿ FFO is a commonly used measure of REIT performance, which the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") defines as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains and losses from sales of depreciable property, net of tax, excluding operating real estate impairments, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We compute FFO for all periods presented in accordance with NAREIT's definition. Many companies use different depreciable lives and methods, and real estate values historically fluctuate with market conditions. Since FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and gains and losses from depreciable property dispositions, and impairments, it can provide a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, acquisition and development activities, and financing costs. This provides a perspective of our financial performance not immediately apparent from net income determined in accordance with GAAP. Thus, FFO is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure of our operating performance, which does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and therefore, should not be considered an alternative for cash flow as a measure of liquidity.

• Core FFO is an additional performance measure used by Regency as the computation of FFO includes certain non-cash and non-comparable items that affect the Company's period-over-period performance.  Core FFO excludes from FFO, but is not limited to: (a) transaction related gains, income or expense; (b) impairments on land; (c) gains or losses from the early extinguishment of debt; and (d) other non-core amounts as they occur.  The Company provides a reconciliation of FFO to Core FFO.

Same Property NOI

Our pro-rata same property NOI grew 4.2% from the following major components:

	Three months ended June 30,					Six months ended June 30,

Growth				4.2	%				4.2	%

Pro-rata same property base rent increased $4.3 million and $8.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, because of contractual rent steps, rental rate growth, and improvements in rent paying occupancy.

Pro-rata same property recovery revenue increased $1.9 million and $2.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, from increases in recoverable costs and improvements in rent paying occupancy.

Pro-rata same property other income decreased $1.3 million during the six months ended June 30, 2015 as a result of a large settlement fee earned in 2014.    

Pro-rata same property operating expenses increased $1.1 million during the three months endedJune 30, 2015 primarily associated with increased real estate taxes and snow removal costs.

Environmental Matters

We are subject to numerous environmental laws and regulations as they apply to our shopping centers pertaining to chemicals used by the dry cleaning industry, the existence of asbestos in older shopping centers, and underground petroleum storage tanks. We believe that the tenants who currently operate dry cleaning plants or gas stations do so in accordance with current laws and regulations. Generally, we use all legal means to cause tenants to remove dry cleaning plants from our shopping centers or convert them to more environmentally friendly systems. Where available, we have applied and been accepted into state-sponsored environmental programs. We have a blanket environmental insurance policy for third-party liabilities and remediation costs on shopping centers that currently have no known environmental contamination. We have also placed environmental insurance, where possible, on specific properties with known contamination, in order to mitigate our environmental risk. We monitor the shopping centers containing environmental issues and in certain cases voluntarily remediate the sites. We also have legal obligations to remediate certain sites and we are in the process of doing so.

As of June 30, 2015 we had accrued liabilities of $9.5 million for our pro-rata share of environmental remediation. We believe that the ultimate disposition of currently known environmental matters will not have a material effect on our financial position, liquidity, or results of operations; however, we can give no assurance that existing environmental studies on our shopping centers have revealed all potential environmental liabilities; that any previous owner, occupant or tenant did not create any material environmental condition not known to us; that the current environmental condition of the shopping centers will not be affected by tenants and occupants, by the condition of nearby properties, or by unrelated third parties; or that changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations or their interpretation will not result in additional environmental liability to us.

Inflation/Deflation

Inflation has been historically low and has had a minimal impact on the operating performance of our shopping centers; however, inflation may become a greater concern in the future. Substantially all of our long-term leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation. Most of our leases require tenants to pay their pro-rata share of operating expenses, including common-area maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. In addition, many of our leases are for terms of less than ten years, which permits us to seek increased rents upon re-rental at market rates. However, during deflationary periods or periods of economic weakness, minimum rents and percentage rents will decline as the supply of available retail space exceeds demand and consumer spending declines. Occupancy declines resulting from a weak economic period will also likely result in lower recovery rates of our operating expenses.

Organization and Principles of Consolidation

Organization and Principles of Consolidation

General

Regency Centers Corporation (the “Parent Company”) began its operations as a Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) in 1993 and is the general partner of Regency Centers, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”). The Parent Company currently owns approximately 99.8% of the outstanding common Partnership Units of the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company engages in the ownership, management, leasing, acquisition, and development of retail shopping centers through the Operating Partnership, and has no other assets or liabilities other than through its investment in the Operating Partnership. As of June 30, 2015, the Parent Company, the Operating Partnership and their controlled subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (the "Company” or “Regency”) directly owned 200 retail shopping centers and held partial interests in an additional 119 retail shopping centers through investments in real estate partnerships (also referred to as "joint ventures" or "co-investment partnerships").

The financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. These adjustments are considered to be of a normal recurring nature.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2018, with adoption as early as January 1, 2017 permitted. The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (Topic 810), which requires amendments to both the variable interest entity ("VIE") and voting models. The amendments (i) rescind the indefinite deferral of certain aspects of accounting standards relating to consolidations and provide a permanent scope exception for registered money market funds and similar unregistered money market funds, (ii) modify the identification of variable interests (fees paid to a decision maker or service provider), the VIE characteristics for a limited partnership or similar entity and primary beneficiary determination under the VIE model, and (iii) eliminate the presumption within the current voting model that a general partner controls a limited partnership or similar entity. The new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015 with early adoption permitted. The amendments may be applied using either a modified retrospective or full retrospective approach. The Company currently intends to adopt the standard during the first quarter of 2016 and does not currently anticipate a material impact upon adoption.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30), which simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs by requiring that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The amendments in this ASU are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt this ASU in the first quarter of 2016, which will result in a decrease to total assets and liabilities of the net unamortized balance of debt issuance costs, which is $6.4 million at June 30, 2015, exclusive of the line of credit costs.

Therefore, none are offset in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet.

The Company expects to issue new debt in 2015 and 2017. In order to mitigate the risk of interest rate volatility, the Company previously entered into $220 million of forward starting interest rate swaps to partially hedge the new debt expected to be issued in 2015 and another $220 million of forward starting interest rate swaps to partially hedge the new debt expected to be issued in 2017. These interest rate swaps lock in the 10-year treasury rate and swap spread at a weighted average fixed rate of 2.67% and 3.48%, respectively. A current market based credit spread applicable to Regency will be added to the locked in fixed rate at time of issuance that will determine the final bond yield.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI") and 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 within interest expense.

The following table represents the effect of the derivative financial instruments on the accompanying consolidated financial statements:

⁽¹⁾ An interest rate swap is in place to establish a fixed interest rate on $28.1 million of this variable rate mortgage. See note 6.

The weighted average contractual interest rates were 5.4% and 1.1% on the fixed rate and variable rate debt, respectively, at June 30, 2015. Significant financing activity since December 31, 2014, excluding scheduled principal payments, includes:

• The Company repaid three mortgages totaling $76.0 million that were scheduled to mature during 2015;

• The Company drew $2.4 million on a construction loan for the ongoing redevelopment of a shopping center in a consolidated real estate partnership;

• The Company borrowed $45.0 million, net of repayments, on its $800.0 million Line of Credit (the "Line"); and

• In May 2015, the Company amended its Line to extend the maturity to May 13, 2019 and reduced the applicable interest rate. Based on current credit ratings, the Line bears interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 92.5 basis points on any drawn balance plus an annual 15 basis point facility fee on the entire $800.0 million capacity. The interest rates are based on the higher of the Company's current corporate credit ratings issued by Moody's or S&P. Further, the Company has options to extend the maturity for two additional six-month periods.

• Subsequent to June 30, 2015, the Company repaid the $350.0 million fixed rate unsecured loan that matured.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

(a) Disclosure of Fair Value of Financial Instruments

All financial instruments of the Company are reflected in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets at amounts which, in management's estimation, reasonably approximate their fair values, except for the following:

	June 30, 2015			December 31, 2014
(in thousands)	Carrying Amount		Fair Value	Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Financial assets:
Notes receivable	$	12,281	12,165	$	12,132	11,980
Financial liabilities:
Notes payable	$	1,868,700	1,990,000	$	1,946,357	2,116,000
Unsecured credit facilities	$	120,000	120,000	$	75,000	75,000

The table above reflects carrying amounts in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets under the indicated captions. The above fair values approximate the amounts that would be received from selling those assets or that would be paid to transfer those liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. These fair value measurements maximize the use of observable inputs. However, in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date, the fair value measurement reflects the Company's own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The Company develops its judgments based on the best information available at the measurement date, including expected cash flows, appropriately risk-adjusted discount rates, and available observable and unobservable inputs. Service providers involved in fair value measurements are evaluated for competency and qualifications on an ongoing basis. As considerable judgment is often necessary to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments, the fair values presented above are not necessarily indicative of amounts that will be realized upon disposition of the financial instruments.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments:

Notes Receivable

The fair value of the Company's notes receivable is estimated by calculating the present value of future contractual cash flows discounted at interest rates available for notes of the same terms and maturities, adjusted for counter-party specific credit risk. The fair value of notes receivable was determined primarily using Level 3 inputs of the fair value hierarchy, which considered counter-party credit risk and loan to value ratio on the underlying property securing the note receivable.

Notes Payable

The fair value of the Company's notes payable is estimated by discounting future cash flows of each instrument at rates that reflect the current market rates available to the Company for debt of the same terms and maturities. Fixed rate loans assumed in connection with real estate acquisitions are recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements at fair value at the time the property is acquired. The fair value of the notes payable was determined using Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy.

Unsecured Credit Facilities

The fair value of the Company's unsecured credit facilities is estimated based on the interest rates currently offered to the Company by financial institutions. The fair value of the credit facilities was determined using Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy.

The following interest rate ranges were used by the Company to estimate the fair value of its financial instruments:

	June 30, 2015		December 31, 2014
	Low	High	Low	High
Notes receivable	7.3%	7.3%	7.4%	7.4%
Notes payable	1.6%	3.8%	0.9%	3.4%
Unsecured credit facilities	1.1%	1.2%	1.3%	1.3%

(b) Fair Value Measurements

The following financial instruments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Trading Securities Held in Trust

The Company has investments in marketable securities, which are assets of the non-qualified deferred compensation plan ("NQDCP"), that are classified as trading securities held in trust on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the trading securities held in trust was determined using quoted prices in active markets, which are considered Level 1 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. Changes in the value of trading securities are recorded within net investment (income) loss from deferred compensation plan in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Available-for-Sale Securities

Available-for-sale securities consist of investments in certificates of deposit and corporate bonds, and are recorded at fair value using matrix pricing methods to estimate fair value, which are considered Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. Unrealized gains or losses on these securities are recognized through other comprehensive income.

Interest Rate Derivatives

The fair value of the Company's interest rate derivatives is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty's nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements.

Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. The Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its interest rate swaps. As a result, the Company determined that its interest rate swaps valuation in its entirety is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The following tables present the placement in the fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

	Fair Value Measurements as of June 30, 2015

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is involved in litigation on a number of matters and is subject to certain claims, which arise in the normal course of business, none of which, in the opinion of management, is expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. Legal fees are expensed as incurred.

The Company is also subject to numerous environmental laws and regulations as they apply to real estate pertaining to chemicals used by the dry cleaning industry, the existence of asbestos in older shopping centers, and underground petroleum storage tanks. The Company believes that the ultimate disposition of currently known environmental matters will not have a material effect on its financial position, liquidity, or operations; however, it can give no assurance that existing environmental studies with respect to the shopping centers have revealed all potential environmental liabilities; that any previous owner, occupant or tenant did not create any material environmental condition not known to it; that the current environmental condition of the shopping centers will not be affected by tenants and occupants, by the condition of nearby properties, or by unrelated third parties; or that changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations or their interpretation will not result in additional environmental liability to the Company.

The Company has the right to issue letters of credit under the Line up to an amount not to exceed $50.0 million, which reduces the credit availability under the Line. These letters of credit are primarily issued as collateral to facilitate the construction of development projects. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had $5.9 million in letters of credit outstanding.

Income allocated to noncontrolling interests of the Operating Partnership has been excluded from the numerator and exchangeable Operating Partnership units have been omitted from the denominator for the purpose of computing diluted earnings per share since the effect of including these amounts in the numerator and denominator would have no impact. Weighted average exchangeable Operating Partnership units outstanding for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2015 were 154,170, and for the three and six months endedJune 30, 2014 were 159,338 and 159,804, respectively.
