Investments In and Advances To Unconsolidated Affiliates

Investments in and Advances to Unconsolidated Affiliates

We have equity interests of up to 50.0% in various joint ventures with unrelated third parties that are accounted for using the equity method of accounting because we have the ability to exercise significant influence over their operating and financial policies.

The following table sets forth the summarized income statements of our unconsolidated affiliates:

We have a 20.0% interest in SF-HIW Harborview Plaza, LP (“Harborview”). We are the manager and leasing agent for Harborview’s property in Tampa, FL and receive customary management and leasing fees. During 2012, we also provided a three-year $20.8 million interest-only secured loan to Harborview that is scheduled to mature in September 2015. The loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 500 basis points, subject to a LIBOR floor of 0.5%. Previously, we accounted for the original contribution transaction as a financing obligation since our partner had the right to put its 80.0% equity interest back to us any time during the one-year period prior to September 11, 2015. During the second quarter of 2015, as a result of our partner’s irrevocable exercise of a buy-sell provision in our joint venture agreement, our partner’s right to put its 80.0% equity interest back to us became no longer exercisable, which resulted in recording the original contribution transaction as a partial sale. Harborview is now accounted for using the equity method of accounting. See Note 1.

See Note 2 for a description of our acquisition of a building in Orlando, FL from Highwoods DLF 98/29, LLC during the second quarter of 2015. The joint venture recorded a gain on disposition of property of $13.7 million. Our share of $3.1 million was recorded as a reduction to real estate assets.

During the second quarter of 2015, Highwoods KC Glenridge Office, LLC and Highwoods KC Glenridge Land, LLC collectively sold two buildings and land to an unrelated third party for an aggregate sale price of $24.5 million (before closing credits to buyer of $0.3 million for unfunded tenant improvements) and recorded gains on disposition of property of $2.4 million. We recorded $0.9 million as our share of these gains through equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates.

During the first quarter of 2015, Highwoods DLF 97/26 DLF 99/32, LP sold a building to an unrelated third party for a sale price of $7.0 million and recorded a gain on disposition of property of $2.1 million. We recorded $1.1 million as our share of this gain through equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates.
