Forward-Looking Statements
This document contains 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. These forward-looking statements represent our expectations, plans or beliefs concerning future events and may be identified by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “continue,” “predict,” or similar terms. Although the forward-looking statements made in this document are based on our good-faith beliefs, reasonable assumptions and our best judgment based upon current information, certain factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, including: our success or failure in implementing our business strategy; economic conditions generally and in the commercial real estate and finance markets specifically; the cost and availability of capital, which depends in part on our asset quality and our relationships with lenders and other capital providers; our business prospects and outlook; changes in governmental regulations, tax rates and similar matters; our continuing to qualify as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”); and other factors discussed elsewhere in this document and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future.
PART I
Item 1. Business
The terms “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us” refer to Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust, Ramco-Gershenson Properties, L.P., and/or its subsidiaries, as the context may require.
General
Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust is a premier, national publicly-traded shopping center real estate investment trust (REIT) based in Farmington Hills, Michigan. The Company’s primary business is the ownership and management of regional town centers and urban-infill properties in key growth sub-markets in the 40 largest metropolitan markets in the United States. Our target submarkets are affluent communities where our centers can offer value, variety, convenience, entertainment, and an experience for the consumer.
As of December 31, 2017, our property portfolio consisted of
56
wholly-owned shopping centers comprised of approximately
13.5 million
square feet. We also have ownership interests of 7%, 20%, 30%, and 30% in
four
joint ventures. Our joint ventures are reported using the equity method of accounting. We earn fees from certain of these joint ventures for managing, leasing and redeveloping the shopping centers they own. In addition, we own various parcels of land available for development or for sale, the majority of which are adjacent to certain of our existing developed properties.
We conduct substantially all of our business through our operating partnership, Ramco-Gershenson Properties, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership” or “OP”), a Delaware limited partnership. The Operating Partnership, either directly or indirectly through partnerships or limited liability companies, holds fee title to all owned properties. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, we have the exclusive power to manage and conduct the business of the Operating Partnership. As of
December 31, 2017
, we owned approximately
97.7%
of the Operating Partnership. The interests of the limited partners are reflected as noncontrolling interests in our financial statements and the limited partners are generally individuals or entities that contributed interests in certain assets or entities to the Operating Partnership in exchange for units of limited partnership interest (“OP Units”). The holders of OP units are entitled to exchange them for our common shares on a 1:1 basis or for cash. The form of payment is at our election.
We operate in a manner intended to qualify as a REIT pursuant to the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Certain of our operations, including property and asset management, as well as ownership of certain land parcels, are conducted through taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”), which are subject to federal and state income taxes.
1
Business Objectives, Strategies and Significant Transactions
Our business objective is to own and manage market dominant shopping centers that generate cash flow for distribution to our shareholders and that have the potential for capital appreciation. To achieve this objective, we seek to acquire, develop, or redevelop shopping centers that meet our investment criteria. We also seek to recycle capital through the sale of land or shopping centers that we deem to be fully valued or that no longer meet our investment criteria. We use debt, equity and operating cash flow to finance our activities and focus on managing the amount, structure and terms of our debt to limit the risks inherent in debt financing. From time to time, we enter into joint venture arrangements where we believe we can benefit by owning a partial interest in shopping centers and by earning fees for managing the centers for our partners.
We invest primarily in regional town centers and urban-infill properties that include national chain store tenants, market leading supermarket tenants, as well as a strong line-up of smaller national retailers to optimize the overall merchandise mix. Our centers also include entertainment components, including theaters, fitness centers and restaurants, which, in addition to supermarkets, are daily drivers of consumer traffic at our properties. National chain anchor tenants in our centers include, among others, TJ Maxx/Marshalls, Bed Bath and Beyond, Dick's Sporting Goods, and Home Depot. Supermarket anchor tenants in our centers include, among others, Publix Super Market, Whole Foods, Kroger, Aldi, and Sprouts. Theater, fitness and restaurant tenants include, among others, Regal Cinema, LA Fitness, Starbucks, Panera, and Rusty Bucket. Our shopping centers are primarily located in metropolitan markets such as Metro Detroit, Southeast Florida, Greater Denver, Cincinnati, St. Louis, Jacksonville, Tampa/Lakeland, Milwaukee, Chicago, Atlanta, and Minneapolis - St. Paul.
We also own land which is available for development or sale. At
December 31, 2017
, the three largest development sites, Hartland Towne Square, Lakeland Park Center and Parkway Shops, had phase one completed. We estimate that if we proceed with the development of the projects, up to approximately 510,000 square feet of gross leasable area ("GLA") could be developed, excluding various out parcels of land. It is our policy to start vertical construction on new development projects only after the project has received entitlements, significant anchor commitments and construction financing, if appropriate.
Our development and construction activities are subject to risks and uncertainties such as our inability to obtain the necessary governmental approvals for a project, our determination that the expected return on a project is not sufficient to warrant continuation of the planned development or our change in plan or scope for the development. If any of these events occur, we may record an impairment provision.
Operating Strategies and Significant Transactions
Our operating objective is to maximize the risk-adjusted return on invested capital at our shopping centers. We seek to do so by increasing the property operating income of our centers, controlling our capital expenditures, monitoring our tenants’ credit risk and taking actions to mitigate our exposure to that tenant credit risk.
During
2017

(1)
Base rent/sf (square foot) represents contractual minimum rent under the new lease for the first 12 months of the term.
(2)
Prior rent represents minimum rent, if any, paid by the prior tenant in the final 12 months of the term.
(3)
Includes tenant improvement cost, tenant allowances, and landlord costs. Excludes first generation space and new leases related to development and redevelopment activity.
(4)
Non-comparable lease transactions include leases for space vacant for greater than 12 months, leases for space which has been combined from smaller spaces or demised from larger spaces and leases structured differently from the prior lease. As a result, there is no comparable prior rent per square foot to compare to the base rent per square foot of the new lease.

Investing Strategies and Significant Transactions
Our investing objective is to generate an attractive risk-adjusted return on capital invested in acquisitions, developments, and redevelopments. In addition, we seek to sell land or shopping centers that we deem to be fully valued or that no longer meet our investment criteria. We underwrite acquisitions based upon current cash flow, projections of future cash flow and scenario analyses that take into account the risks and opportunities of ownership. We underwrite development of new shopping centers on the same basis, but also take into account the unique risks of entitling land, constructing buildings and leasing newly built space.
In February 2017, we acquired Providence Marketplace, a
632,000
square foot shopping center in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee and Webster Place, a
135,000
square foot shopping center in Chicago, Illinois for
$115.1 million
and
$53.2 million
, respectively. In addition, we sold eleven shopping centers and several land outparcels for gross proceeds of
$229.0 million
. Refer to Note 4 for additional information related to acquisitions and dispositions.
At
December 31, 2017
, we had seven redevelopment, expansion or re-anchoring projects in process with an anticipated cost of
$73.7 million
, of which
$33.9 million
remained to be invested. Completion dates are anticipated throughout 2018.
Financing Strategies and Significant Transactions
Our financing objective is to maintain a strong and flexible balance sheet to ensure access to capital at a competitive cost. In general, we seek to increase our financial flexibility by increasing our pool of unencumbered properties and borrowing on an unsecured basis. In keeping with our objective, we routinely benchmark our balance sheet on a variety of measures to our peers in the shopping center sector and to REITs in general.
Specifically, we completed the following financing transactions:
Debt
During 2017, we amended and restated our $350.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility that extended the maturity date from October 2018 to September 2021, we amended and repriced our $75.0 million term loan due in 2021 by reducing the interest rate 35 basis points, we issued $75.0 million in senior unsecured notes in three tranches with a weighted average interest rate of 4.46%, and we repaid $49.2 million in mortgage notes. Refer to Note 8 for additional information related to our debt.
Equity
In June 2016, we terminated our previous controlled equity offering arrangement and commenced a new distribution agreement that registered up to 8.0 million common shares for issuance from time to time, in our sole discretion. For the year ended December 31, 2017, we did not issue any common shares through either arrangement. The shares issuable in the new distribution agreement are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on our registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-211925).
As of
December 31, 2017
we had net debt to total market capitalization of
43.5%
as compared to
41.0%
, at December 31,
2016
. At
December 31, 2017
and
2016
we had
$318.7 million
and
$263.5 million
, respectively, available to draw under our unsecured revolving line of credit, subject to compliance with applicable covenants.
Competition
See page 6 of Item 1A. “Risk Factors” for a description of competitive conditions in our business.
Environmental Matters
See page 12 of Item 1A. "Risk Factors" for a description of environmental risks for our business.
Employment
As of
December 31, 2017
, we had 122 full-time employees. None of our employees is represented by a collective bargaining unit. We believe that our relations with our employees are good.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
You should carefully consider each of the risks and uncertainties described below and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as any amendments or updates reflected in subsequent filings with the SEC. We believe these risks and uncertainties, individually or in the aggregate, could cause our actual results to differ materially from expected and historical results and could materially and adversely affect our business operations, results of operations and financial condition. Further, additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our results and business operations.
Operating Risks
A shift in retail shopping from brick and mortar stores to online shopping may have an adverse impact on our cash flow, financial condition and results of operations.
In recent periods, sales by online retailers such as Amazon have increased, and many retailers operating brick and mortar stores have made online sales a vital piece of their businesses. Although many of the retailers operating in our properties sell groceries and other necessity-based soft goods or provide services, including entertainment and dining options, the shift to online shopping may cause declines in brick and mortar sales generated by certain of our tenants and/or may cause certain of our tenants to reduce the size or number of their retail locations in the future. As a result, our cash flow, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
National economic conditions and retail sales trends may adversely affect the performance of our properties.
Demand to lease space in our shopping centers generally fluctuates with the overall economy. Economic downturns often result in a lower rate of retail sales growth, or even declines in retail sales. In response, retailers that lease space in shopping centers typically reduce their demand for retail space during such downturns. As a result, economic downturns and unfavorable retail sales trends may diminish the income, cash flow, and value of our properties.
Our concentration of properties in Michigan and Florida makes us more susceptible to adverse market conditions in these states.
Our performance depends on the economic conditions in the markets in which we operate. As of December 31,
2017
, our wholly-owned properties located in Michigan and Florida accounted for approximately
20%
, and
21%
, respectively, of our annualized base rent. As of December 31,
2016
, Michigan and Florida accounted for approximately 28% and 21%, respectively. To the extent that market conditions in these or other states in which we operate deteriorate, the performance or value of our properties may be adversely affected.
Increasing sales through non-retail channels and changes in the supply and demand for the type of space we lease to our tenants could affect the income, cash flow and value of our properties.
Our tenants compete with alternate forms of retailing, including on-line shopping, home shopping networks and mail order catalogs. Alternate forms of retailing may reduce the demand for space in our shopping centers. Our shopping centers generally compete for tenants with similar properties located in the same neighborhood, community or region. Although we believe we own high quality centers, competing centers may be newer, better located or have a better tenant mix. In addition, new centers or retail stores may be developed, increasing the supply of retail space competing with our centers or taking retail sales from our tenants.
As a result, we may not be able to renew leases or attract replacement tenants as leases expire. When we do renew tenants or attract replacement tenants, the terms of renewals or new leases may be less favorable to us than current lease terms. In order to lease our vacancies, we often incur costs to reconfigure or modernize our properties to suit the needs of a particular tenant. Under competitive circumstances, such costs may exceed our budgets. If we are unable to lease vacant space promptly, if the rental rates upon a renewal or new lease are lower than expected, or if the costs incurred to lease space exceed our expectations, then the income and cash flow of our properties will decrease.
Our reliance on key tenants for significant portions of our revenues exposes us to increased risk of tenant bankruptcies that could adversely affect our income and cash flow.
As of
December 31, 2017
, we received
41.5%
of our combined annualized base rents from our top 25 tenants, including our top five tenants: TJ Maxx/Marshalls (
4.6%
), Dicks Sporting Goods (
3.6%
). Bed Bath & Beyond (
2.9%
), Regal Cinemas (
2.7%
) and LA Fitness (
2.5%
). No
other tenant represented more than 2.0% of our total annualized base rent. The credit risk posed by our major tenants varies.
5
If any of our major tenants experiences financial difficulties or files for bankruptcy protection, our operating results could be adversely affected. Bankruptcy filings by our tenants or lease guarantors generally delay our efforts to collect pre-bankruptcy receivables and could ultimately preclude full collection of these sums. If a tenant rejects a lease, we would have only a general unsecured claim for damages, which may be collectible only to the extent that funds are available and only in the same percentage as is paid to all other holders of unsecured claims.
Our properties generally rely on anchor tenants to attract customers. The loss of anchor tenants may adversely impact the performance of our properties.
If any of our anchor tenants becomes insolvent, suffers a downturn in business, abandons occupancy or decides not to renew its lease, such event would adversely impact the performance of the affected center. An abandonment or lease termination by an anchor tenant may give other tenants in the same shopping center the right to terminate their leases or pay less rent pursuant to the terms of their leases. Our leases with anchor tenants may, in certain circumstances, permit them to transfer their leases to other retailers. The transfer to a new anchor tenant could result in lower customer traffic to the center, which would affect our other tenants. In addition, a transfer of a lease to a new anchor tenant could give other tenants the right to make reduced rental payments or to terminate their leases.
We may be restricted from leasing vacant space based on existing exclusivity lease provisions with some of our tenants.
In a number of cases, our leases give a tenant the exclusive right to sell clearly identified types of merchandise or provide specific types of services at a particular shopping center. In other cases, leases with a tenant may limit the ability of other tenants to sell similar merchandise or provide similar services to that tenant. When leasing a vacant space, these restrictions may limit the number and types of prospective tenants suitable for that space. If we are unable to lease space on satisfactory terms, our operating results would be adversely impacted.
Increases in operating expenses could adversely affect our operating results.
Our operating expenses include, among other items, property taxes, insurance, utilities, repairs and the maintenance of the common areas of our shopping centers. We may experience increases in our operating expenses, some or all of which may be out of our control. Most of our leases require that tenants pay for a share of property taxes, insurance and common area maintenance costs. However, if any property is not fully occupied or if recovery income from tenants is not sufficient to cover operating expenses, then we could be required to expend our own funds for operating expenses. In addition, we may be unable to renew leases or negotiate new leases with terms requiring our tenants to pay all the property tax, insurance and common area maintenance costs that tenants currently pay, which would adversely affect our operating results.
If we suffer losses that are uninsured or in excess of our insurance coverage limits, we could lose invested capital and anticipated profits.
Catastrophic losses, such as losses resulting from wars, acts of terrorism, earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, and tornadoes or other natural disasters, pollution or environmental matters, generally are either uninsurable or not economically insurable, or may be subject to insurance coverage limitations, such as large deductibles or co-payments. Although we currently maintain “all risk” replacement cost insurance for our buildings, rents and personal property, commercial general liability insurance and pollution and environmental liability insurance, our insurance coverage may be inadequate if any of the events described above occurs to, or causes the destruction of, one or more of our properties. Under that scenario, we could lose both our invested capital and anticipated profits from that property.
Our real estate assets may be subject to additional impairment provisions based on market and economic conditions.
On a periodic basis, we assess whether there are any indicators that the value of our real estate properties and other investments may be impaired. Under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) a property’s value is impaired only if the estimate of the aggregate future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) to be generated by the property is less than the carrying value of the property. In our estimate of cash flows, we consider factors such as expected future operating income, trends and prospects, the effects of demand, competition and other factors. We are required to make subjective assessments as to whether there are impairments in the value of our real estate properties and other investments.
No assurance can be given that we will be able to recover the current carrying amount of all of our properties and those of our unconsolidated joint ventures. There can be no assurance that we will not take charges in the future related to the impairment of our assets. Any future impairment could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in the period in which the
6
charge is taken. We recorded an impairment provision of
$9.4 million
in
2017
related to our real estate properties. Refer to
Note 1
Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies -
Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for a further information related to impairment provisions.
We do not control all decisions related to the activities of joint ventures in which we are invested, and we may have conflicts of interest with our joint venture partners.
Various restrictive provisions and rights govern sales or transfers of interests in our joint ventures. We may be required to make decisions as to the purchase or sale of interests in our joint ventures at a time that is disadvantageous to us. In addition, a bankruptcy filing of one of our joint venture partners could adversely affect us because we may make commitments that rely on our partners to fund capital from time to time. The profitability of shopping centers held in a joint venture could also be adversely affected by the bankruptcy of one of our joint venture partners if, because of certain provisions of the bankruptcy laws, we were unable to make important decisions in a timely fashion or were to became subject to additional liabilities.
We may invest in additional joint ventures, the terms of which may differ from our existing joint ventures. In general, we would expect to share the rights and obligations to make major decisions regarding the venture with our partners, which would expose us to the risks identified above.
As of
December 31, 2017
, we had interests in unconsolidated joint ventures that collectively own
three
shopping centers. Although we manage certain properties owned by these joint ventures, we do not control the decisions for any of the joint ventures. Accordingly, we may not be able to resolve in our favor any issues which arise or we may have to provide financial or other inducements to our joint venture partners to obtain such favorable resolution.
Our equity investment in each of our unconsolidated joint ventures is subject to impairment testing in the event of certain triggering events, such as a change in market conditions or events at properties held by those joint ventures. If the fair value of our equity investment is less than our net book value on an other than temporary basis, an impairment charge is required to be recognized under generally accepted accounting principles. Refer to
Note
6
of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for further information related to our equity investments.
Market and economic conditions may impact our partners’ ability to perform in accordance with our real estate joint venture and partnership agreements resulting in a change in control.
Changes in control of our investments could result from events such as amendments to our real estate joint venture and partnership agreements, changes in debt guarantees or changes in ownership due to required capital contributions. Any changes in control will result in the revaluation of our investments to fair value, which could lead to impairment. We are unable to predict whether, or to what extent, a change in control may occur or what the impact of adverse market and economic conditions might be to our partners.
Our redevelopment projects may not yield anticipated returns, which would adversely affect our operating results.
Our redevelopment activities generally call for a capital commitment and project scope greater than that required to lease vacant space. To the extent a significant amount of construction is required, we are susceptible to risks such as permitting, cost overruns and timing delays as a result of the lack of availability of materials and labor, the failure of tenants to commit or fulfill their commitments, weather conditions and other factors outside of our control. Any substantial unanticipated delays or expenses would adversely affect the investment returns from these redevelopment projects and adversely impact our operating results.
Investing Risks
We face competition for the acquisition and development of real estate properties, which may impede our ability to grow our operations or may increase the cost of these activities.
We compete with many other entities for the acquisition of shopping centers and land suitable for new developments, including other REITs, private institutional investors and other owner-operators of shopping centers. In particular, larger REITs may enjoy competitive advantages that result from, among other things, a lower cost of capital. These competitors may increase the market prices we would have to pay in order to acquire properties. If we are unable to acquire properties that meet our criteria at prices we deem reasonable, our ability to grow will be adversely affected.
Commercial real estate investments are relatively illiquid, which could hamper our ability to dispose of properties that no longer meet our investment criteria or respond to adverse changes in the performance of our properties.

Our ability to promptly sell one or more properties in our portfolio in response to changing economic, financial and investment conditions is limited because real estate investments are relatively illiquid. The real estate market is affected by many factors, such as general economic conditions, supply and demand, availability of financing, interest rates and other factors that are beyond our control. We cannot be certain that we will be able to sell any property for the price and other terms we seek, or that any price or other terms offered by a prospective purchaser would be acceptable to us. We also cannot estimate with certainty the length of time needed to find a willing purchaser and to complete the sale of a property. We may be required to expend funds to correct defects or to make improvements before a property can be sold. Factors that impede our ability to dispose of properties could adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.
We are seeking to develop new properties, an activity that has inherent risks including cost overruns related to entitling land, improving the site, constructing buildings, and leasing new space.
We are seeking to develop and construct retail properties at several land parcels we own. Our development and construction activities are subject to the following risks:
|
•
|
The pre-construction phase for a development project typically extends over several years, and the time to obtain anchor commitments, zoning and regulatory approvals and financing can vary significantly from project to project;
|
|
•
|
We may not be able to obtain the necessary zoning or other governmental approvals for a project, or we may determine that the expected return on a project is not sufficient. If we abandon our development activities with respect to a particular project, we may incur an impairment loss on our investment;
|
|
•
|
Construction and other project costs may exceed our original estimates because of increases in material and labor costs, delays and costs to obtain anchor and other tenant commitments;
|
|
•
|
We may not be able to obtain financing for construction;
|
|
•
|
Occupancy rates and rents at a completed project may not meet our projections; and
|
|
•
|
The time frame required for development, construction and lease-up of these properties means that we may have to wait years for a significant cash return.
|
If any of these events occur, our development activities may have an adverse effect on our results of operations, including additional impairment provisions. For a detailed discussion of development projects, refer to Notes 3 and 6 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Financing Risks
Increases in interest rates may affect the cost of our variable-rate borrowings, our ability to refinance maturing debt, and the cost of any such refinancings.
As of
December 31, 2017
, we had
nine
interest rate swap agreements in effect for an aggregate notional amount of
$210.0 million
converting our floating rate corporate debt to fixed rate debt. In addition we have entered into one forward starting interest rate swap agreement for an aggregate notional amount of
$60.0 million
. After accounting for these interest rate swap agreements, we had
$58.1 million
of variable rate debt outstanding, net of deferred financing costs at
December 31, 2017
. Increases in interest rates on our existing indebtedness would increase our interest expense, which would adversely affect our cash flow and our ability to distribute cash to our shareholders. For example, if market rates of interest on our variable rate debt outstanding as of
December 31, 2017
increased by 1.0%, the increase in interest expense on our existing variable rate debt would decrease future earnings and cash flows by approximately
$0.6 million
annually. Interest rate increases could also constrain our ability to refinance maturing debt because lenders may reduce their advance rates in order to maintain debt service coverage ratios.
We have no corporate debt limitations.
Our management and Board of Trustees (“Board”) have discretion to increase the amount of our outstanding debt at any time. Subject to existing financial covenants, we could become more highly leveraged, resulting in an increase in debt service costs that could adversely affect our cash flow and the amount available for distribution to our shareholders. If we increase our debt, we may also increase the risk of default on our debt.
Our debt must be refinanced upon maturity, which makes us reliant on the capital markets on an ongoing basis.
8
We are not structured in a manner to generate and retain sufficient cash flow from operations to repay our debt at maturity. Instead, we expect to refinance our debt by raising equity, debt or other capital prior to the time that it matures. As of
December 31, 2017
, we had
$1.0 billion
of outstanding indebtedness, net of deferred financing costs, including
$1.0 million
of capital lease obligations. The availability, price and duration of capital can vary significantly. If we seek to refinance maturing debt when capital market conditions are restrictive, we may find capital scarce, costly or unavailable. Refinancing debt at a higher cost would affect our operating results and cash available for distribution. The failure to refinance our debt at maturity would result in default and the exercise by our lenders of the remedies available to them, including foreclosure and, in the case of recourse debt, liability for unpaid amounts.
Our mortgage debt exposes us to the risk of loss of property, which could adversely affect our financial condition.
As of
December 31, 2017
, we had
$120.9 million
of mortgage debt, net of unamortized deferred financing costs, encumbering our properties. A default on any of our mortgage debt may result in foreclosure actions by lenders and ultimately our loss of the mortgaged property. We have entered into mortgage loans which are secured by multiple properties and contain cross-collateralization and cross-default provisions. Cross-collateralization provisions allow a lender to foreclose on multiple properties in the event that we default under the loan. Cross-default provisions allow a lender to foreclose on the related property in the event a default is declared under another loan. For federal income tax purposes, a foreclosure of any of our properties would be treated as a sale of the property for a purchase price equal to the outstanding balance of the debt secured by the mortgage. If the outstanding balance of the debt secured by the mortgage exceeds our tax basis in the property, we would recognize taxable income on foreclosure but would not receive any cash proceeds.
Financial covenants may restrict our operating, investing or financing activities, which may adversely impact our financial condition and operating results.
The financial covenants contained in our mortgages and debt agreements reduce our flexibility in conducting our operations and create a risk of default on our debt if we cannot continue to satisfy them. The mortgages on our properties contain customary negative covenants such as those that limit our ability, without the prior consent of the lender, to further mortgage the applicable property or to discontinue insurance coverage. In addition, if we breach covenants in our debt agreements, the lender can declare a default and require us to repay the debt immediately and, if the debt is secured, can ultimately take possession of the property securing the loan.
Our outstanding line of credit contains customary restrictions, requirements and other limitations on our ability to incur indebtedness, including limitations on the maximum ratio of total liabilities to assets, the minimum fixed charge coverage and the minimum tangible net worth. Our ability to borrow under our line of credit is subject to compliance with these financial and other covenants. We rely on our ability to borrow under our line of credit to finance acquisition, development and redevelopment activities and for working capital. If we are unable to borrow under our line of credit, our financial condition and results of operations would be adversely impacted.
We must distribute a substantial portion of our income annually in order to maintain our REIT status, and as a result we may not retain sufficient cash from operations to fund our investing needs.
As a REIT, we are subject to annual distribution requirements under the Code. In general, we must distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income annually, excluding net capital gains, to our shareholders to maintain our REIT status. We intend to make distributions to our shareholders to comply with the requirements of the Code.
Differences in timing between the recognition of taxable income and the actual receipt of cash could require us to sell assets or borrow funds on a short-term or long-term basis to meet the 90% distribution requirement. In addition, the distribution requirement reduces the amount of cash we retain for use in funding our capital requirements and our growth. As a result, we have historically funded our acquisition, development and redevelopment activities by any of the following: selling assets that no longer meet our investment criteria; selling common shares and preferred shares; borrowing from financial institutions; and entering into joint venture transactions with third parties. Our failure to obtain funds from these sources could limit our ability to grow, which could have a material adverse effect on the value of our securities.
9
There may be future dilution of our common shares
Our Declaration of Trust authorizes our Board to, among other things, issue additional common or preferred shares, or securities convertible or exchangeable into equity securities, without shareholder approval. We may issue such additional equity or convertible securities to raise additional capital. The issuance of any additional common or preferred shares or convertible securities could be dilutive to holders of our common shares. Moreover, to the extent that we issue restricted shares, options or warrants to purchase our common shares in the future and those options or warrants are exercised or the restricted shares vest, our shareholders may experience further dilution. Holders of our common shares have no preemptive rights that entitle them to purchase a pro rata share of any offering of shares of any class or series and, therefore, such sales or offerings could result in increased dilution to our shareholders.
We may issue debt and equity securities or securities convertible into equity securities, any of which may be senior to our common shares as to distributions and in liquidation, which could negatively affect the value of our common shares.
There were
412,195
shares of unvested restricted common shares outstanding at
December 31, 2017
.
Corporate Risks
The price of our common shares may fluctuate significantly.
The market price of our common shares fluctuates based upon numerous factors, many of which are outside of our control. A decline in our share price, whether related to our operating results or not, may constrain our ability to raise equity in pursuit of our business objectives. In addition, a decline in price may affect the perceptions of lenders, tenants or others with whom we transact. Such parties may withdraw from doing business with us as a result. An inability to raise capital at a suitable cost or at any cost, or to do business with certain tenants or other parties, would affect our operations and financial condition.
Our failure to qualify as a REIT would result in higher taxes and reduced cash available for distribution to our shareholders.
We intend to operate in a manner so as to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. Our continued qualification as a REIT will depend on our satisfaction of certain asset, income, investment, organizational, distribution, shareholder ownership and other requirements on a continuing basis. Our ability to satisfy the asset requirements depends upon our analysis of the fair market values of our assets, some of which are not susceptible to a precise determination and for which we will not obtain independent appraisals. In addition, our compliance with the REIT income and asset requirements depends upon our ability to manage successfully the composition of our income and assets on an ongoing basis. Moreover, the proper classification of an instrument as debt or equity for federal income tax purposes may be uncertain in some circumstances, which could affect the application of the REIT qualification requirements. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) will not contend that our interests in subsidiaries or other issuers constitute a violation of the REIT requirements. Moreover, future economic, market, legal, tax or other considerations may cause us to fail to qualify as a REIT.
If we were to fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we would be subject to federal income tax, including any applicable alternative minimum tax, on our taxable income at regular corporate rates and distributions to shareholders would not be deductible by us in computing our taxable income. Any such corporate tax liability could be substantial and would reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to our shareholders, which in turn could have an adverse impact on the value of and trading prices for, our common shares. Unless entitled to relief under certain Code provisions, we also would be disqualified from taxation as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which we ceased to qualify as a REIT.
Even as a REIT, we may be subject to various federal income and excise taxes, as well as state and local taxes.
Even as a REIT, we may be subject to federal income and excise taxes in various situations, such as if we fail to distribute all of our REIT taxable income. We also will be required to pay a 100% tax on non-arm’s length transactions between us and our TRSs and on any net income from sales of property that the IRS successfully asserts was property held for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business. Additionally, we may be subject to state or local taxation in various state or local jurisdictions, including those in which we transact business. The state and local tax laws may not conform to the federal income tax treatment. Any taxes imposed on us would reduce our operating cash flow and net income.
The rules dealing with federal income taxation are constantly under review by persons involved in the legislative process and by the IRS and the United States Treasury Department. Changes to tax laws, which may have retroactive application, could adversely affect our shareholders or us. We cannot predict how changes in tax laws might affect our shareholders or us.
10
We are party to litigation in the ordinary course of business, and an unfavorable court ruling could have a negative effect on us.
We are the defendant in a number of claims brought by various parties against us. Although we intend to exercise due care and consideration in all aspects of our business, it is possible additional claims could be made against us. We maintain insurance coverage including general liability coverage to help protect us in the event a claim is awarded; however, some claims may be uninsured. In the event that claims against us are successful and uninsured or underinsured, or we elect to settle claims that we determine are in our interest to settle, our operating results and cash flow could be adversely impacted. In addition, an increase in claims and/or payments could result in higher insurance premiums, which could also adversely affect our operating results and cash flow.
We are subject to various environmental laws and regulations which govern our operations and which may result in potential liability.
Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations relating to the protection of the environment, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances disposed, stored, released, generated, manufactured or discharged from, on, at, onto, under or in such property. Environmental laws often impose such liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence or release of such hazardous or toxic substance. The presence of such substances, or the failure to properly remediate such substances when present, released or discharged, may adversely affect the owner’s ability to sell or rent such property or to borrow using such property as collateral. The cost of any required remediation and the liability of the owner or operator therefore as to any property is generally not limited under such environmental laws and could exceed the value of the property and/or the aggregate assets of the owner or operator. Persons who arrange for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances may also be liable for the cost of removal or remediation of such substances at a disposal or treatment facility, whether or not such facility is owned or operated by such persons. In addition to any action required by federal, state or local authorities, the presence or release of hazardous or toxic substances on or from any property could result in private plaintiffs bringing claims for personal injury or other causes of action.
In connection with ownership (direct or indirect), operation, management and development of real properties, we have the potential to be liable for remediation, releases or injury. In addition, environmental laws impose on owners or operators the requirement of ongoing compliance with rules and regulations regarding business-related activities that may affect the environment. Such activities include, for example, the ownership or use of transformers or underground tanks, the treatment or discharge of waste waters or other materials, the removal or abatement of asbestos-containing materials (“ACMs”) or lead-containing paint during renovations or otherwise, or notification to various parties concerning the potential presence of regulated matters, including ACMs. Failure to comply with such requirements could result in difficulty in the lease or sale of any affected property and/or the imposition of monetary penalties, fines or other sanctions in addition to the costs required to attain compliance. Several of our properties have or may contain ACMs or underground storage tanks; however, we are not aware of any potential environmental liability which could reasonably be expected to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations. No assurance can be given that future laws, ordinances or regulations will not impose any material environmental requirement or liability, or that a material adverse environmental condition does not otherwise exist.
Our business and operations would suffer in the event of system failures or cyber security attacks.
We rely upon information technology network and systems, some of which are managed by third parties, to process, transmit and store electronic information, and to manage and support a variety of business processes and activities. Despite the implementation of security measures and the existence of a disaster recovery plan for our internal information technology systems, our systems are vulnerable to damages from any number of sources, including energy blackouts, natural disasters, terrorism, war, telecommunication failures and cyber security attacks, such as computer viruses or unauthorized access. Any system failure or accident that causes interruptions in our operations could result in a material disruption to our business. We may also incur additional costs to remedy damages caused by such disruptions. Risks that could result from a cyber incident include operational interruption, damage to our relationships with tenants and private data disclosures including, personally identifiable, confidential or proprietary information. Any compromise of our security could result in a violation of applicable privacy and other laws, significant legal and financial exposure, damage to our reputation, loss or misuse of the information and a loss of confidence in our security measures, which could harm our business.
Restrictions on the ownership of our common shares are in place to preserve our REIT status.
Our Declaration of Trust restricts ownership by any one shareholder to no more than 9.8% of our outstanding common shares, subject to certain exceptions granted by our Board. The ownership limit is intended to ensure that we maintain our REIT status given that the Code imposes certain limitations on the ownership of the stock of a REIT. Not more than 50% in value of our
11
outstanding shares of beneficial interest may be owned, directly or indirectly by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the Code) during the last half of any taxable year. If an individual or entity were found to own constructively more than 9.8% in value of our outstanding shares, then any excess shares would be transferred by operation of our Declaration of Trust to a charitable trust, which would sell such shares for the benefit of the shareholder in accordance with procedures specified in our Declaration of Trust.
The ownership limit may discourage a change in control, may discourage tender offers for our common shares and may limit the opportunities for our shareholders to receive a premium for their shares. Upon due consideration, our Board previously has granted limited exceptions to this restriction for certain shareholders who requested an increase in their ownership limit. However, the Board has no obligation to grant such limited exceptions in the future.
Certain anti-takeover provisions of our Declaration of Trust and Bylaws may inhibit a change of our control.
Certain provisions contained in our Declaration of Trust and Bylaws and the Maryland General Corporation Law, as applicable to Maryland REITs, may discourage a third party from making a tender offer or acquisition proposal to us. These provisions and actions may delay, deter or prevent a change in control or the removal of existing management. These provisions and actions also may delay or prevent the shareholders from receiving a premium for their common shares of beneficial interest over then-prevailing market prices.
These provisions and actions include:
|
•
|
the REIT ownership limit described above;
|
|
•
|
authorization of the issuance of our preferred shares of beneficial interest with powers, preferences or rights to be determined by our Board;
|
|
•
|
special meetings of our shareholders may be called only by the chairman of our Board, the president, one-third of the Trustees, or the secretary upon the written request of the holders of shares entitled to cast not less than a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast at such meeting;
|
|
•
|
a two-thirds shareholder vote is required to approve some amendments to our Declaration of Trust;
|
|
•
|
our Bylaws contain advance-notice requirements for proposals to be presented at shareholder meetings; and
|
|
•
|
our Board, without the approval of our shareholders, may from time to time (i) amend our Declaration of Trust to increase or decrease the aggregate number of shares of beneficial interest, or the number of shares of beneficial interest of any class, that we have authority to issue, and (ii) reclassify any unissued shares of beneficial interest into one or more classes or series of shares of beneficial interest.
|
In addition, the Trust, by Board action, may elect to be subject to certain provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law that inhibit takeovers such as the provision that permits the Board by way of resolution to classify itself, notwithstanding any provision our Declaration of Trust or Bylaws.
Our Chief Executive Officer may have potential conflicts of interests with respect to properties contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for OP Units.
Our Chief Executive Officer owns OP Units obtained in exchange for contributions of his partnership interests in properties to the Operating Partnership. By virtue of this exchange, he may have been able to defer some, if not all, of the income tax liability he could have incurred if the properties were sold for cash. As a result, he may have potential conflicts of interest with respect to these properties, such as sales or refinancings that might result in federal income tax consequences.
Our success depends on key personnel whose continued service is not guaranteed.
We depend on the efforts and expertise of our senior management team to manage our day-to-day operations and strategic business direction. While we have retention and severance agreements with certain members of our executive management team that provide for certain payments in the event of a change of control or termination without cause, we do not have employment agreements with all of the members of our executive management team. Therefore, we cannot guarantee their continued service. The loss of their services, and our inability to find suitable replacements, could have an adverse effect on our operations.
12
Changes in accounting standards may adversely impact our financial results.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board, in conjunction with the SEC, has several projects on its agenda, as well as recently issued updates that could impact how we currently account for material transactions, including lease accounting. At this time, we are unable to predict with certainty which, if any, proposals may be passed or what level of impact the lease accounting standard may have on the presentation of our consolidated financial statements, results of operations and financial ratios required by our debt covenants.
U.S. federal tax reform legislation could affect REITs generally, the geographic markets in which we operate, our stock and our results of operations, both positively and negatively in ways that are difficult to anticipate.
Changes to the federal income tax laws are proposed regularly. Additionally, the REIT rules are constantly under review by persons involved in the legislative process and by the Internal Revenue Service and the U.S. Department of the Treasury, which may result in revisions to regulations and interpretations in addition to statutory changes. If enacted, certain such changes could have an adverse impact on our business and financial results. In particular, H.R. 1, which generally takes effect for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2018 (subject to certain exceptions), makes many significant changes to the federal income tax laws that will profoundly impact the taxation of individuals, corporations (both regular C corporations as well as corporations that have elected to be taxed as REITs), and the taxation of taxpayers with overseas assets and operations. A number of changes that affect non-corporate taxpayers will expire at the end of 2025 unless Congress acts to extend them. These changes will impact us and our shareholders in various ways, some of which are adverse or potentially adverse compared to prior law. To date, the IRS has issued only limited guidance with respect to certain of the new provisions, and there are numerous interpretive issues that will require guidance. It is highly likely that technical corrections legislation will be needed to clarify certain aspects of the new law and give proper effect to Congressional intent. There can be no assurance, however, that technical clarifications or changes needed to prevent unintended or unforeseen tax consequences will be enacted by Congress in the near future. In addition, while certain elements of tax reform legislation would not impact us directly as a REIT, they could impact the geographic markets in which we operate, the tenants that populate our shopping centers and the customers who frequent our properties in ways, both positive and negative, that are difficult to anticipate.
Other legislative proposals could be enacted in the future that could affect REITs and their shareholders. Prospective investors are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the effect of H.R. 1 and any other potential tax law changes on an investment in our common stock.
We may have to borrow funds or sell assets to meet our distribution requirements.
Subject to some adjustments that are unique to REITs, a REIT generally must distribute 90% of its taxable income. For the purpose of determining taxable income, we may be required to accrue interest, rent and other items treated as earned for tax purposes but that we have not yet received. In addition, we may be required not to accrue as expenses for tax purposes some that which actually have been paid, including, for example, payments of principal on our debt, or some of our deductions might be disallowed by the Internal Revenue Service. As a result, we could have taxable income in excess of cash available for distribution. If this occurs, we may have to borrow funds or liquidate some of our assets in order to meet the distribution requirement applicable to a REIT.
Liquidation of our assets may jeopardize our REIT qualification.
To qualify as a REIT, we must comply with requirements regarding our assets and our sources of income. If we are compelled to liquidate our investments to repay obligations to our lenders, we may be unable to comply with these requirements, ultimately jeopardizing our qualification as a REIT, or we may be subject to a 100% tax on any gain if we sell assets in transactions that are considered to be “prohibited transactions,” which are explained in the risk factor below.
Dividends payable by REITs do not qualify for the reduced tax rates on dividend income from regular corporations.
The maximum federal income tax rate applicable to “qualified dividend income” payable by non-REIT corporations to certain non-corporate U.S. stockholders is generally 20%, and a 3.8% Medicare tax may also apply. Dividends paid by REITs, however, generally are not eligible for the reduced rates applicable to qualified dividend income. Commencing with taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2018 and continuing through 2025, H.R. 1 temporarily reduces the effective tax rate on ordinary REIT dividends (i.e., dividends other than capital gain dividends and dividends attributable to certain qualified dividend income received by us) for U.S. holders of our common stock that are individuals, estates or trusts by permitting such holders to claim a deduction in determining their taxable income equal to 20% of any such dividends they receive. Taking into account H.R. 1’s reduction in the maximum individual federal income tax rate from 39.6% to 37%, this results in a maximum effective rate of regular income tax on ordinary REIT dividends of 29.6% through 2025 (as compared to the 20% maximum federal income tax rate applicable to
13
qualified dividend income received from a non-REIT corporation). The more favorable rates applicable to regular corporate distributions could cause investors who are individuals to perceive investments in REITs to be relatively less attractive than investments in the stocks of non-REIT corporations that pay distributions. This could materially and adversely affect the value of the stock of REITs, including our common stock.

Footnotes
(1)
Average base rent per leased SF is calculated based on annual minimum contractual base rent pursuant to the tenant lease, excluding percentage rent and recovery income from tenants, and is net of tenant concessions. Percentage rent and recovery income from tenants is presented separately in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) statement.
(2)
Anchor tenant is defined as any tenant leasing 10,000 square feet or more. Tenants in parenthesis represent non-company owned GLA.
(3)
Tenant closed - lease obligated.
(4)
Space delivered to tenant.
(5)
Space leased to tenant, not yet delivered.
18
Our leases for tenant space under 10,000 square feet generally have terms ranging from three to five years. Tenant leases greater than or equal to 10,000 square feet generally have lease terms of five years or longer, and are considered anchor leases. Many of the anchor leases contain provisions allowing the tenant the option of extending the lease term at expiration at contracted rental rates that often include fixed rent increases, consumer price index adjustments or other market rate adjustments from the prior base rent. The majority of our leases provide for monthly payment of base rent in advance, percentage rent based on the tenant’s sales volume, reimbursement of the tenant’s allocable real estate taxes, insurance and common area maintenance (“CAM”) expenses and reimbursement for utility costs if not directly metered.

Land Available for Development and/or Sale
At
December 31, 2017
, our three largest development sites, Hartland Towne Square, Lakeland Park Center and Parkway Shops, had phase one completed. We estimate that if we proceed with the development of the projects, up to approximately 510,000 square feet of GLA could be developed, excluding various outparcels of land. It is our policy to start vertical construction on new development projects only after the project has received entitlements, significant anchor commitments and construction financing, if appropriate.
Our development and construction activities are subject to risks and uncertainties such as our inability to obtain the necessary governmental approvals for a project, our determination that the expected return on a project is not sufficient to warrant continuation of the planned development, or our change in plan or scope for the development. If any of these events occur, we may record an impairment provision.
During
2017
, we recorded an impairment provision of
$9.4 million
related to income producing shopping centers and developable land. We also recorded impairment provisions of
$1.0 million
and
$2.5 million
in
2016
and
2015
, respectively, related to developable land that we decided to market for sale. Refer to
Note 1
Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies -
Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for a further information related to impairment provisions.
Insurance
Our tenants are generally responsible under their leases for providing adequate insurance on the spaces they lease. In addition we believe our properties are adequately covered by commercial general liability, fire, flood, terrorism, environmental, and where necessary, hurricane and windstorm insurance coverages, which are all provided by reputable companies, with commercially reasonable exclusions, deductibles and limits.

PART II
Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
Market Information
Our common shares are currently listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “RPT”. On
February 15
,
2018
, the closing price of our common shares on the NYSE was $11.74.
Shareholder Return Performance Graph
The following line graph sets forth the cumulative total return on a $100 investment (assuming the reinvestment of dividends) in each of our common shares, the NAREIT Equity Index, and the S&P 500 Index for the period December 31, 2012 through
December 31, 2017
. The stock price performance shown is not necessarily indicative of future price performance.

Holders
The number of holders of record of our common shares was 1,177
at
February 15
,
2018
. A substantially greater number of holders are beneficial owners whose shares of record are held by banks, brokers, and other financial institutions.
Dividends
Under the Code, a REIT must meet requirements, including a requirement that it distribute to its shareholders at least 90% of its REIT taxable income annually, excluding net capital gain. Distributions paid by us are at the discretion of our Board and depend on our actual net income available to common shareholders, cash flow, financial condition, capital requirements, the annual distribution requirements under REIT provisions of the Code, and such other factors as the Board deems relevant.
Distributions on our 7.25% Series D Cumulative Convertible Perpetual Preferred Shares declared in
2017
totaled $3.625 per share. We do not believe that the preferential rights available to the holders of our preferred shares or the financial covenants contained in our debt agreements had or will have an adverse effect on our ability to pay dividends in the normal course of business to our common shareholders or to distribute amounts necessary to maintain our qualification as a REIT.
For information on our equity compensation plans as of
December 31, 2017
, refer to Item 12 of Part III of this report and Note 15 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for further information regarding our share-based compensation and other benefit plans.

26
Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, the notes thereto, and the comparative summary of selected financial data appearing elsewhere in this report.
Overview
We are a fully integrated, self-administered, publicly-traded REIT specializing in the ownership, management, development and redevelopment of community shopping centers. Most of our properties are multi-anchored by supermarkets and/or national chain stores. Our primary business is managing and leasing space to tenants in the shopping centers we own. We also manage certain centers for our unconsolidated joint ventures for which we charge fees. Our credit risk, therefore, is concentrated in the retail industry.
At
December 31, 2017
, we owned and managed, either directly or through our interest in real estate joint ventures, a total of
59
shopping centers, with approximately
14.3 million
square feet of gross leasable area owned by us and our joint ventures. We also own various parcels of land available for development or for sale, the majority of which are adjacent to certain of our existing developed properties.
Our portfolio consists of town center and urban-infill neighborhood and power center properties that include national chain store tenants, market leading supermarket tenants, as well as a strong-line-up of smaller national retailers to optimize the overall merchandise mix. Our centers also include entertainment components, including theaters, fitness centers and restaurants, which, in addition to supermarkets, are daily drivers of consumer traffic at our properties. National chain anchor tenants in our centers include, among others, TJ Maxx/Marshalls, Bed Bath and Beyond, Dick’s Sporting Goods, and Home Depot. Supermarket anchor tenants in our centers include, among others, Publix Super Market, Whole Foods, Kroger, Aldi, and Sprouts. Theater, fitness and restaurant tenants include, among others, Regal Cinema, LA Fitness, Starbucks, Panera, and Rusty Bucket. Our shopping centers are primarily located in key growth markets in the 40 largest metropolitan markets in the United States such as Metro Detroit, Southeast Florida, Greater Denver, Cincinnati, St. Louis, Jacksonville, Tampa/Lakeland, Milwaukee, Chicago, Atlanta, and Minneapolis-St. Paul.
Our focus on these markets has enabled us to develop a thorough understanding of their unique characteristics and potentially take advantage of additional acquisition opportunities in these markets. Our consolidated portfolio was 93.3% leased at December 31, 2017 as compared to 94.4% at December 31, 2016. The decline in leased occupancy is primarily a result of the Gander Mountain, MC Sporting Goods and rue21 bankruptcies.
Hurricane Irma
In September 2017 Hurricane Irma made landfall in Florida where several of our shopping centers are located. Certain of these centers incurred minimal damage, primarily to rooftops, signage and landscaping, as a result of high winds. Overall, repair costs were less than $0.4 million which were partially offset by recovery income in accordance with our current tenant recovery rates. No centers incurred repairs that exceeded our insurance deductible.
Critical Accounting Policies
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Our estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We believe the following critical accounting policies require our most subjective judgment and use of estimates in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable
Most of our leases contain non-contingent rent escalations for which we recognize income on a straight-line basis over the non-cancelable lease term. This method results in rental income in the early years of a lease being higher than actual cash received, creating a straight-line rent receivable asset which is included in the “Other Assets” line item in our consolidated balance sheets. We review our unbilled straight-line rent receivable balance to determine the future collectability of revenue that will not be billed to
27
or collected from tenants due to early lease terminations, lease modifications, bankruptcies and other factors. An allowance to write down the straight-line receivable balance is taken in the period that future collectability is uncertain.
Additionally, we provide for bad debt expense based upon the allowance method of accounting. We continuously monitor the collectability of our accounts receivable from specific tenants, analyze historical bad debts, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in tenant payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for bad debts. Allowances are taken for those balances that we have reason to believe will be uncollectible.
For more information refer to
Note 1
Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,
Revenue Recognition
and
Accounts Receivable
subtopics of the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Acquisitions
Acquisitions of properties are accounted for utilizing the acquisition method and, accordingly, the results of operations of an acquired property are included in our results of operations from the date of acquisition. Estimates of fair values are based upon future cash flows and other valuation techniques in accordance with our fair value measurements policy, which are used to allocate the purchase price of acquired property among land, buildings on an “as if vacant” basis, tenant improvements, identifiable intangibles and any gain on purchase. Identifiable intangible assets and liabilities include the effect of above-and below-market leases, the value of having leases in place (“as-is” versus “as if vacant” and absorption costs), other intangible assets such as assumed tax increment revenue bonds and out-of-market assumed mortgages. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 40 years for buildings, and over the remaining terms of any intangible asset contracts and the respective tenant leases, which may include bargain renewal options. The impact of these estimates, including estimates in connection with acquisition values and estimated useful lives, could result in significant differences related to the purchased assets, liabilities and subsequent depreciation or amortization expense. For more information, refer to
Note 1
, Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Real Estate of the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Impairment
We review our investment in real estate, including any related intangible assets, for impairment on a property-by-property basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the property may not be recoverable. These changes in circumstances include, but are not limited to, changes in occupancy, rental rates, tenant sales, net operating income, geographic location, real estate values and expected holding period. The viability of all projects under construction or development, including those owned by unconsolidated joint ventures, is regularly evaluated under applicable accounting requirements, including requirements relating to abandonment of assets or changes in use. To the extent a project or an individual component of the project, is no longer considered to have value, the related capitalized costs are charged against operations.
Impairment provisions resulting from any event or change in circumstances, including changes in our intentions or our analysis of varying scenarios, could be material to our consolidated financial statements.
We recognize an impairment of an investment in real estate when the estimated discounted or undiscounted cash flow is less than the net carrying value of the property. If it is determined that an investment in real estate is impaired, then the carrying value is reduced to the estimated fair value as determined by cash flow models and discount rates or comparable sales in accordance with our fair value measurement policy. Refer to
Note 1
Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies -
Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
for further information regarding impairment provisions.

Results of Operations
Comparison of the Year Ended
December 31, 2017
to the Year Ended
December 31, 2016
The following summarizes certain line items from our audited statements of operations which we believe are important in understanding our operations and/or those items that have significantly changed during the year ended
December 31, 2017
as compared to
2016
:
Total revenue in
2017
increased
$4.2 million
, or
1.6%
from
2016
. The increase is primarily due to the following:
|
•
|
$17.3 million increase related to acquisitions completed in 2017 and 2016;
|
|
•
|
$3.1 million increase at existing centers; offset by
|
|
•
|
$14.8 million decrease related to properties sold in 2017 and 2016;
|
|
•
|
$1.1 million decrease related to disposal of our office building; and a
|
|
•
|
$0.1 million decrease in management and other fee income
|
The $3.1 million increase at existing centers was primarily the result of higher minimum rent. Recovery income from tenants decreased $1.4 million, or 2.2%, primarily due to lower net recoverable operating expenses and real estate taxes of $1.0 million.
Recoverable operating expense in
2017
decreased $1.9 million, or (6.5)%, from
2016
primarily due to a decrease at existing centers of $1.3 million, as a result of lower spending, as well as a net decrease in operating expenses from acquisition and disposition activity of $0.6 million.
Non-recoverable operating expense in
2017
increased $0.9 million, or 24.4%, from
2016
primarily due to ground rent expense at a property acquired in the fourth quarter of 2016.
Real estate tax expense in
2017
increased
$0.9 million
, or
2.3%
, from
2016
, primarily due to incremental tax increases within existing properties of $0.6 million, as well as net tax increases from acquisition and disposition activity of $0.3 million.
Depreciation and amortization expense in
2017
decreased
$(0.5) million
, or
(0.5)%
, from
2016
. The net decrease was primarily attributable to tenant bankruptcy and vacancy write-offs in 2017 resulting in partial year expense recognition, lease origination costs reaching full amortization and a reduction in expense from property dispositions. The net decrease was partially offset by depreciation and amortization on new building and improvement assets and lease origination costs from the 2017 and 2016 acquisitions.
General and administrative expense in
2017
increased
$4.1 million
, or
18.7%
, from 2016. The increase was primarily due to increased costs associated with professional fees, the change in performance-based executive compensation recognized in the respective periods and an increase in wages.
29
During 2017 we recorded an impairment provision totaling $9.4 million, of which $8.4 million was on shopping centers classified as income producing and $1.0 million on land held for development or sale. The adjustments were triggered by changes in associated sales price assumptions, a purchase price reduction at one property and changes in the expected use of the land. Impairment provisions of
$1.0 million
recorded in 2016 related to developable land held for sale triggered by unforeseen increases in development costs and changes in the associated sales price assumptions. Refer to
Note 1
Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies -
Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for further information related to impairment provisions.
Gain on sale of real estate was
$52.8 million
in
2017
. In the comparable period in
2016
we had a gain of
$35.8 million
. Refer to Note 4 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for further detail on dispositions.
Earnings from unconsolidated joint ventures in
2017
decreased
$0.2 million
from
2016
. The decrease was primarily due to the reduced level of properties in unconsolidated joint ventures for the majority of 2017 as compared to 2016.
Interest expense increased in
2017
by
$0.4 million
, or
0.8%
from
2016
, primarily due to a 7% increase in our average outstanding debt and lower debt premium amortization, offset partially by a 30 basis point decline in our weighted average interest rate.
Loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $1.3 million in 2016 resulted from a $0.9 million loss upon the conveyance of our Aquia office property to the lender and a $0.4 million cash prepayment penalty on a mortgage payoff in 2016. There was no loss on extinguishment of debt in 2017.
Comparison of the Year Ended
December 31, 2016
to the Year Ended
December 31, 2015
The following summarizes certain line items from our audited statements of operations which we believe are important in understanding our operations and/or those items which have significantly changed during the year ended
December 31, 2016
as compared to
2015
:
Total revenue in
2016
increased
$9.1 million
, or
3.6%
, from
2015
. The increase is primarily due to the following:
|
•
|
$16.0 million increase related to acquisitions completed in 2016 and 2015;
|
|
•
|
$3.9 million increase at existing centers; offset by
|
|
•
|
$9.2 million decrease related to properties sold in 2016 and 2015;
|
|
•
|
$1.2 million decrease in management and other fee income; and
|
|
•
|
$0.4 million decrease related to the disposal of our office building.
|
30
Operating expense in 2016 decreased $1.7 million, or 4.9%, from 2015 primarily due to certain operating costs direct billed to tenants by the service provider which were previously part of the Company’s recovery cost, lower bad debt expense and our dispositions which were partially offset by the impact of a full year from our 2015 acquisitions.
Real estate tax expense in 2016 increased $3.0 million, or 7.7%, from 2015, primarily due to our 2015 acquisitions and incremental tax increases within existing properties, partially offset by dispositions.
Depreciation and amortization expense in 2016 increased $2.4 million, or 2.6%, from 2015. The increase was primarily related to a $4.5 million increase from our nine acquisitions in 2015, one acquisition in 2016, new development completion and other capital activities offset by a decrease of $2.2 million related to properties disposed of.
General and administrative expense in 2016 increased $2.0 million, or 9.8%, from 2015. The increase was primarily due to increased costs associated with our long-term incentive plans, including increased stock compensation in 2016 related to a one-time award to our current Chief Financial Officer in December 2015. By way of contrast, general and administration expense in 2015 included a reversal of expense attributable to the resignation of our former Chief Financial Officer.
Impairment provisions of $1.0 million recorded in 2016 related to developable land held for sale triggered by unforeseen increases in development costs and changes in the associated sales price assumptions. In 2015 our impairment provisions totaled $2.5 million related to our plan to sell certain land parcels that we had previously intended to develop. Refer to Note 1 Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies -
Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for further information related to impairment provisions.
Gain on sale of real estate was $35.8 million in 2016. In the comparable period in 2015 we had a gain of $17.6 million. Refer to Note 4 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for further detail on dispositions.
Earnings from unconsolidated joint ventures in 2016 decreased $17.2 million from 2015. The decrease was primarily due to the reduced level of properties in unconsolidated joint ventures following sales in 2015.
Interest expense increased in 2016 by $2.3 million, or 5.5% from 2015, primarily due to an 8% increase in our average outstanding debt, offset partially by a 15 basis point decline in our weighted average interest rate.
Other gain on unconsolidated joint ventures in 2016 was $0.2 million, primarily due to the reduced level of activity in our unconsolidated joint ventures. In 2015 we acquired our partners' interest in seven properties. The 2015 gain of $7.9 million represents the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of our previously held equity investment in the seven properties. In 2016 only a single property was disposed of by a joint venture.
Loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $1.3 million in 2016 resulted from a $0.9 million loss upon the conveyance of our Aquia office property to the lender and a $0.4 million cash prepayment penalty on a mortgage payoff in 2016 with an original maturity of April 2017 in order to issue unsecured long term financing at a lower interest rate. The gain of $1.4 million in 2015 related to the write-off of debt premiums associated with the early payoff of corresponding debt.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary uses of capital include principal and interest payments on our outstanding indebtedness, recurring capital expenditures such as tenant improvements, leasing commissions, improvements made to individual properties, shareholder dividends, redevelopments, operating expenses of our business, debt maturities, acquisitions and developments. We generally strive to cover our principal and interest payments, operating expenses, shareholder distributions, and recurring capital expenditures from cash flow from operations, although from time to time we may borrow or sell assets to finance a portion of those uses. We believe the combination of cash flow from operations, cash balances, available borrowings under our Unsecured Credit Facility, issuance of long-term debt, property dispositions, and issuance of equity securities will provide adequate capital resources to fund all of our expected uses over at least the next 12 months. Although we believe that the combination of factors discussed above will provide sufficient liquidity, no such assurance can be given.
We believe our current capital structure provides us with the financial flexibility to fund our current capital needs. We intend to continue to enhance our financial and operational flexibility by extending the duration of our debt, appropriately ladder our debt maturities and further expand our unencumbered asset base. In addition, we believe we have access to multiple forms of capital which includes unsecured corporate debt, preferred and common equity including our at-the-market equity program we have in place.
31
At
December 31, 2017
and
2016
, we had
$12.9 million
and
$14.7 million
, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. Restricted cash was comprised primarily of funds held in escrow by lenders to pay real estate taxes, insurance premiums and certain capital expenditures, in addition to deposits on potential future acquisitions. In the fourth quarter of 2017 we repaid $36.3 million of mortgage debt originally scheduled to mature in early 2018. As of
December 31, 2017
we had no debt maturing in 2018. As of
December 31, 2017
we had
$318.7 million
available to be drawn on our
$350.0 million
unsecured revolving credit facility subject to our compliance with certain covenants.
Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay indebtedness at maturity, potential acquisitions of properties, redevelopment of existing properties, the development of land and non-recurring capital expenditures. We continually search for investment opportunities that may require additional capital and/or liquidity, which will afford us the opportunity to significantly increase our return on total investment. We will continue to pursue the strategy of selling mature properties or non-core assets that no longer meet our investment criteria. Our ability to obtain acceptable selling prices and satisfactory terms and financing will impact the timing of future sales. We anticipate using net proceeds from the sale of properties to reduce outstanding debt and support current and future growth initiatives. To the extent that asset sales are not sufficient to meet our long-term liquidity needs, we expect to meet such needs by incurring debt or issuing equity.

In early 2017 we acquired two properties at a combined gross purchase price of $164.3 million, net of $4.0 million paid in the previous year as deposits and three outparcel acquisitions throughout the year with a combined gross purchase price of $1.6 million. In 2016 we acquired one property in the fourth quarter for $32.0 million. Proceeds of $19.0 million from a prior disposal were placed into escrow at closing and subsequently released for the 2016 acquisition under an Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 exchange.
At December 31, 2017, we had six properties under redevelopment or expansion that have an estimated cost of $73.7 million, of which $33.9 million remains to be invested. Completion for these projects is expected over the next year.
During 2017 we closed eleven property dispositions, a Walgreen’s Data Center and five outparcel sales with aggregate net selling proceeds of $216.5 million. In 2016 we sold six properties and six outparcels with aggregate net selling proceeds of $91.0 million. Refer to Note 4 Property Acquisitions and Dispositions of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for additional information related to dispositions.

Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities decreased
$25.4 million
compared to
2016
primarily due to:
|
•
|
costs associated with our share distribution agreement decreased
$0.2 million
;
|
|
•
|
an increase in cash dividends to common shareholders of
$2.5 million
primarily due to an increase in our per share quarterly dividend payment;
|
|
•
|
a decrease in cash paid for OP unit redemptions of
$1.5 million
;
|
|
•
|
an increase in cash paid for taxes on restricted stock vesting of
(0.1) million
; and
|
|
•
|
a decrease in net borrowings of
$26.2 million
including debt extinguishment costs and deferred financing costs.
|
As of
December 31, 2017
,
$318.7 million
was available to be drawn on our
$350.0 million
unsecured revolving credit facility subject to our compliance with certain covenants. It is anticipated that additional funds borrowed under our credit facilities will be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital, capital expenditures, the repayment of indebtedness or other corporate activities. For further information on the credit facilities and other debt, refer to Note 8 of notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Dividends and Equity
We currently qualify, and intend to continue to qualify in the future, as a REIT under the Code. As a REIT, we must distribute to our shareholders at least 90% of our REIT taxable income annually, excluding net capital gain. Distributions paid are at the discretion of our Board and depend on our actual net income available to common shareholders, cash flow, financial condition, capital requirements, restrictions in financing arrangements, the annual distribution requirements under REIT provisions of the Code and such other factors as our Board deems relevant.
We paid cash dividends of
$0.88
per common share to shareholders in
2017
. Cash dividends for
2016
and
2015
were
$0.85
and
$0.81
per common share, respectively. Our dividend policy is to make distributions to shareholders of at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, excluding net capital gain, in order to maintain qualification as a REIT. On an annualized basis, our current dividend is above our estimated minimum required distribution. Distributions paid by us are expected to be funded from cash flows from operating activities. To the extent that cash flows from operating activities are insufficient to pay total distributions for any period, alternative funding sources could be used. Examples of alternative funding sources may include proceeds from sales of real estate and bank borrowings. As of December 31, 2017 we had
$318.7 million
available to be drawn on our $350.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility subject to compliance with certain covenants.
In June 2016, we terminated our previous controlled equity offering arrangement and commenced a new distribution agreement that registered up to 8.0 million common shares for issuance from time to time, in our sole discretion. The shares issuable in the new distribution agreement are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission on our registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-211925).
Debt
At December 31, 2017, we had $30.0 million outstanding on our revolving credit facility, $120.9 million of fixed rate mortgage loans encumbering certain properties, $210.0 million of unsecured term loan facilities, $610.0 million in senior unsecured notes and $28.1 million of junior subordinated notes.
In 2017, we completed eleven property and five land dispositions, generating net proceeds of approximately $216.5 million. Proceeds from these dispositions were used to fund the acquisition of two properties, net of previous deposits, for $164.3 million and repay borrowings under our revolving credit facility.
On September 14, 2017, we closed on our amended and restated $350.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility. The credit facility matures September 2021 and may be extended one year to 2022 through two six-month options. Borrowings on the credit facility will be priced at LIBOR plus a margin of between 1.30% and 1.95% based on our leverage ratio as calculated under the credit facility. Additionally, the facility allows for increased borrowing capacity up to $650.0 million through an accordion feature.
In December 2017, we issued $75.0 million senior unsecured notes. The notes were issued in three maturity tranches as follows: $25.0 million, maturing 2022, at a rate of 4.13%; $30.0 million maturing 2027, at a rate of 4.57%; and $20.0 million maturing 2029, at a rate of 4.72%. Proceeds from this issuance were used to repay without penalty $36.3 million of mortgage debt originally scheduled to mature in early 2018 and for general corporate purposes.
33
In November 2017, we amended and repriced our $75.0 million term loan due 2021 to reduce the loans interest rate by 35 basis points for the remainder of the term.
In addition, we had interest rate swap derivative instruments in effect for an aggregate notional amount of $270.0 million converting a portion of our floating rate corporate debt to fixed rate debt. After taking into account the impact of converting our variable rate debt to fixed rate debt by use of the interest rate swap agreements, at December 31, 2017, we had $58.1 million of variable rate debt outstanding.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
Real Estate Joint Ventures
We consolidate entities in which we own less than 100% equity interest if we have a controlling interest or are the primary beneficiary in a variable interest entity, as defined in the Consolidation Topic of FASB ASC 810. From time to time, we enter into joint venture arrangements from which we believe we can benefit by owning a partial interest in one or more properties.
As of
December 31, 2017
, our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures were approximately
$3.5 million
representing our ownership inter
est in
four
join
t ventures. We accounted for these entities under the equity method. Refer to Note 6 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for further information regarding our equity investments in unconsolidated joint ventures.
We are engaged by certain our joint ventures to provide asset management, property management, leasing and investing services for such ventures' respective properties. We receive fees for our services, including a property management fee calculated as a percentage of gross revenues received.

Employment Contracts
At
December 31, 2017
, we had employment contracts with our Chief Executive, Chief Financial and Chief Operating Officers, that contain minimum guaranteed compensation.
Operating and Capital Leases
We lease office space for our corporate headquarters under an operating lease that expires in August 2019.
We have a capital ground lease at our Buttermilk Towne Center with the City of Crescent Springs, Kentucky. The lease provides for fixed annual payments of $0.1 million through maturity in December 2032, at which time we can acquire the land for one dollar.
We also have an operating ground lease at Centennial Shops located in Edina, Minnesota. The lease includes rent escalations throughout the lease period and expires in April 2105.
Construction Costs
In connection with the development and expansion of various shopping centers as of
December 31, 2017
, we have entered into agreements for construction activities with an aggregate cost of approximately
$20.8 million
.
Planned Capital Spending
We are focused on enhancing the value of our existing portfolio of shopping centers through successful leasing efforts and the completion of our redevelopment projects currently in process.
For
2018
, we anticipate spending
betwee
n $80.0 million and $100.0 million for capital expenditures, of which
$20.8 million
is reflected in the construction commitments in the above contractual obligations table. The total anticipated spending relates to redevelopment projects, tenant improvements and leasing costs. Estimates for future spending will change as new projects are approved.
Capitalization
At
December 31, 2017
our total market capitalization was
$2.3 billion
and is detailed below:
At
December 31, 2017
, noncontrolling interests represented a
2.3%
ownership in the Operating Partnership. The OP Units may, under certain circumstances, be exchanged for our common shares of beneficial interest on a one-for-one basis. We, as sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, have the option, but not the obligation, to settle exchanged OP Units held by others in cash. Assuming the exchange of all OP Units, there would have been 81,282,641 of our common shares of beneficial interest outstanding at
December 31, 2017
, with a market value of approximately $1.2 billion.
35
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Certain of our key performance indicators are considered non-GAAP financial measures. Management uses these measures along with our GAAP financial statements in order to evaluate our operations results. We believe these additional measures provide users of our financial information additional comparable indicators of our industry, as well as our performance.
Funds From Operations
We consider funds from operations, also known as “FFO,” to be an appropriate supplemental measure of the financial performance of an equity REIT. Under the NAREIT definition, FFO represents net income (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable property and impairment provisions on depreciable real estate or on investments in non-consolidated investees that are driven by measurable decreases in the fair value of depreciable real estate held by the investee, plus depreciation and amortization, (excluding amortization of financing costs). Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect funds from operations on the same basis.
In addition to FFO available to common shareholders, we include Operating FFO available to common shareholders as an additional measure of our financial and operating performance. Operating FFO excludes acquisition costs and periodic items such as impairment provisions on land available for development or sale, bargain purchase gains, accelerated amortization of debt premiums and gains or losses on extinguishment of debt that are not adjusted under the current NAREIT definition of FFO. We provide a reconciliation of FFO to Operating FFO. FFO and Operating FFO should not be considered alternatives to GAAP net income available to common shareholders or as alternatives to cash flow as measures of liquidity.
While we consider FFO available to common shareholders and Operating FFO available to common shareholders useful measures for reviewing our comparative operating and financial performance between periods or to compare our performance to different REITs, our computations of FFO and Operating FFO may differ from the computations utilized by other real estate companies, and therefore, may not be comparable.
We recognize the limitations of FFO and Operating FFO when compared to GAAP net income available to common shareholders. FFO and Operating FFO available to common shareholders do not represent amounts available for needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations, or other commitments and uncertainties. In addition, FFO and Operating FFO do not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and are not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs, including the payment of dividends. FFO and Operating FFO are simply used as additional indicators of our operating performance. The following table illustrates the calculations of FFO and Operating FFO:

Same Property Operating Income
Same Property Operating Income ("Same Property NOI with Redevelopment") is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure of real estate companies' operating performance. Same Property NOI with Redevelopment is considered by management to be a relevant performance measure of our operations because it includes only the NOI of comparable properties for the reporting period. Same Property NOI with Redevelopment excludes acquisitions and dispositions. Same Property NOI with Redevelopment is calculated using consolidated operating income and adjusted to exclude management and other fee income, depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expense, provision for impairment and non-comparable income/expense adjustments such as straight-line rents, lease termination fees, above/below market rents, and other non-comparable operating income and expense adjustments.
In addition to Same Property NOI with Redevelopment, the Company also believes Same Property NOI without Redevelopment to be a relevant performance measure of our operations. Same Property NOI without Redevelopment follows the same methodology as Same Property NOI with Redevelopment, however it excludes redevelopment activity that significantly impacts the entire property, as well as lesser redevelopment activity where we are adding GLA or retenanting a specific space. A property is designated as redevelopment when projected costs exceed $1.0 million, and the construction impacts approximately 20% or more of the income producing property's gross leasable area ("GLA") or the location and nature of the construction significantly impacts or disrupts the daily operations of the property. Redevelopment may also include a portion of certain properties designated as same property for which we are adding additional GLA or retenanting space.
Same Property NOI should not be considered an alternative to net income in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of liquidity. Our method of calculating Same Property NOI may differ from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.
The following is a summary of our wholly owned properties for the periods noted with consistent classification in the prior period for presentation of Same Property NOI:

Inflation
Inflation has been relatively low in recent years and has not had a significant impact on the results of our operations. Should inflation rates increase in the future, substantially all of our tenant leases contain provisions designed to partially mitigate the negative impact of inflation in the near term. Such lease provisions include clauses that require our tenants to reimburse us for real estate taxes and many of the operating expenses we incur. Also, many of our leases provide for periodic increases in base rent which are either of a fixed amount or based on changes in the consumer price index and/or percentage rents (where the tenant pays us rent based on a percentage of its sales). Significant inflation rate increases over a prolonged period of time may have a material adverse impact on our business.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We have exposure to interest rate risk on our variable rate debt obligations. Based on market conditions, we may manage our exposure to interest rate risk by entering into interest rate swap agreements to hedge our variable rate debt. We are not subject to any foreign currency exchange rate risk or commodity price risk, or other material rate or price risks. Based on our debt and interest rates and interest rate swap agreements in effect at
December 31, 2017
, a 100 basis point change in interest rates would impact our future earnings and cash flows by approximately
$0.6 million
annually. We believe that a 100 basis point increase in interest rates would decrease the fair value of our total outstanding debt by approximately $44.8 million at
December 31, 2017
.
We had interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of
$270.0 million
as of
December 31, 2017
. The agreements provided for fixed rates ranging from
1.46%
to
2.15%
and had expirations ranging from
October 2018
to
March 2023
.
The following table sets forth information as of
December 31, 2017
concerning our long-term debt obligations, including principal cash flows by scheduled maturity, weighted average interest rates of maturing amounts and fair market value. Net debt premium and unamortized deferred financing costs of approximately
$0.1 million
are excluded:

We estimated the fair value of our fixed rate mortgages using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements with the same remaining maturity. Considerable judgment is required to develop estimated fair values of financial instruments. The table incorporates only those exposures that exist at
December 31, 2017
and does not consider those exposures or positions which could arise after that date or firm commitments as of such date. Therefore, the information presented therein has limited predictive value. Our actual interest rate fluctuations will depend on the exposures that arise during the period and on market interest rates at that time.
Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
Our consolidated financial statements and supplementary data are included as a separate section in this Annual Report on Form 10-K commencing on page F-1 and are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), such as this report on Form 10-K, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information 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. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the design control objectives, and management was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
We carried out an assessment as of
December 31, 2017
of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. This assessment was done under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based on such evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of
December 31, 2017
.
Statement of Our Management
Our management has issued a report on its assessment of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting, which appears on page F-2 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and preparation of our consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that pertain to our ability to record, process, summarize and report reliable financial data. Management recognizes that there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any internal control and effective internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Additionally, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting may vary over time.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our management conducted an assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2017
using the framework established in 2013 by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control – Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of
December 31, 2017
.
Our independent registered public accounting firm, Grant Thornton LLP, has issued an attestation report on our internal control over financial reporting. Their report appears on page F-3 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Trustees and Shareholders
Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust
Opinion on internal control over financial reporting
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust (a Maryland corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of
December 31, 2017
, based on criteria established in the 2013
Internal Control-Integrated Framework
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2017
, based on criteria established in the 2013
Internal Control-Integrated Framework
issued by COSO.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended
December 31, 2017
, and our report dated
February 22, 2018
, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.
Basis for opinion
The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and limitations of internal control over financial reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Trustees and Shareholders
Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust
Opinion on the financial statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated
balance sheets of Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust (a Maryland corporation)
and subsidiaries
(the “Company”) as of
December 31, 2017
and
2016
, and the related consolidated
statements of operations and comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2017
, and the related notes and schedules (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the
financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of
December 31, 2017
and
2016
, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2017
, based on criteria established in the 2013
Internal Control-Integrated Framework
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”), and our report dated
February 22, 2018
expressed an unqualified opinion.
Basis for opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Company's auditor since 2005.

RAMCO-GERSHENSON PROPERTIES TRUST
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Years Ended
December 31, 2017
,
2016
and
2015
1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust, together with our subsidiaries (the “Company”), is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) primarily engaged in the business of owning and managing regionally dominant and urban-oriented infill shopping centers in key growth sub-markets in the
40
largest metropolitan markets in the United States. Our property portfolio consists of
56
wholly owned shopping centers comprising approximately
13.5 million
square feet. We also have ownership interests of
7%
,
20%
,
30%
and
30%
, respectively, in
four
joint ventures,
three
of which own a single shopping center and
one
with no significant activity. Our joint ventures are reported using equity method accounting. We earn fees from certain joint ventures for managing, leasing and redeveloping the shopping centers they own. We also own interests in several land parcels that are available for development or sale. Most of our properties are anchored by supermarkets and/or national chain stores. The Company's credit risk, therefore, is concentrated in the retail industry. As of December 31,
2017
, our wholly-owned properties located in Michigan and Florida accounted for approximately
20%
, and
21%
, respectively, of our annualized base rent. As of December 31, 2012, Michigan accounted for approximately
40%
.
We made an election to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax, provided that we annually distribute at least
90%
of our taxable income to our shareholders and meet other conditions.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of us and our majority owned subsidiary, the Operating Partnership, Ramco-Gershenson Properties, L.P. (
97.7%
,
97.6%
and
97.2%
owned by us at
December 31, 2017
,
2016
and
2015
, respectively), and all wholly-owned subsidiaries, including entities in which we have a controlling interest or have been determined to be the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). The presentation of consolidated financial statements does not itself imply that assets of any consolidated entity (including any special-purpose entity formed for a particular project) are available to pay the liabilities of any other consolidated entity, or that the liabilities of any other consolidated entity (including any special-purpose entity formed for a particular project) are obligations of any other consolidated entity. Investments in real estate joint ventures over which we have the ability to exercise significant influence, but for which we do not have financial or operating control, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, our share of the earnings (loss) of these joint ventures is included in consolidated net income (loss). All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.
We own
100%
of the non-voting and voting common stock of Ramco-Gershenson, Inc. (“Ramco”), and therefore it is included in the consolidated financial statements. Ramco has elected to be a taxable REIT subsidiary for federal income tax purposes. Ramco provides property management services to us and to other entities, including certain real estate joint venture partners.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and reported amounts that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications of prior period amounts have been made in the consolidated financial statements and footnotes in order to conform to the current presentation.
Correction of Immaterial Error
In the third quarter of 2017, management identified certain special assessment obligations on undeveloped land that required revision. The adjustment to revise the obligations approximated
$3.1 million
. The correction had no impact on earnings or cash flows for 2016 and 2015.
F-9
Pursuant to the guidance of Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 99, Materiality, the Company concluded that the adjustments were not material to any of its prior period financial statements. Although the adjustments were immaterial to prior periods, the prior period financial statements were revised, in accordance with SAB No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements, due to the significance of the out-of-period correction in the third quarter of 2017.
A reconciliation of the effects of the correction to the previously reported balance sheet at December 31, 2016 follows:

Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable
Our shopping center space is generally leased to retail tenants under leases that are classified as operating leases. We recognize minimum rents using the straight-line method over the terms of the leases commencing when the tenant takes possession of the space or when construction of landlord funded improvements is substantially complete. Certain of the leases also provide for contingent percentage rental income which is recorded on an accrual basis once the specified target that triggers this type of income is achieved. The leases also provide for reimbursement from tenants for common area maintenance (“CAM”), insurance, real estate taxes and other operating expenses ("Recovery Income"). The majority of our Recovery Income is estimated and recognized as revenue in the period the recoverable costs are incurred or accrued. Revenues from management, leasing, and other fees are recognized in the period in which the services have been provided and the earnings process is complete. Lease termination income is recognized when a lease termination agreement is executed by the parties and the tenant vacates the space. When a lease is terminated early but the tenant continues to control the space under a modified lease agreement, the lease termination fee is generally recognized evenly over the remaining term of the modified lease agreement.
Current accounts receivable from tenants primarily relate to contractual minimum rent, percentage rent and recovery income.
We provide for bad debt expense based upon the allowance method of accounting. We monitor the collectability of our accounts receivable from specific tenants on an ongoing basis, analyze historical bad debts, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends and changes in tenant payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for bad debts. Allowances are taken for those balances that we have reason to believe may be uncollectible. When tenants are in bankruptcy, we make estimates of
F-10
the expected recovery of pre-petition and post-petition claims. The period to resolve these claims can exceed one year. Management believes the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate to absorb currently estimated bad debts. However, if we experience bad debts in excess of the allowance we have established, our operating income would be reduced. At
December 31, 2017
and
2016
, our accounts receivable were
$26.1 million
and
$24.0 million
, respectively, net of allowances for doubtful accounts of
$1.4 million
and
$1.9 million
, respectively.
In addition, many of our leases contain non-contingent rent escalations for which we recognize income on a straight-line basis over the non-cancelable lease term. This method results in rental income in the early years of a lease being higher than actual cash received, creating a straight-line rent receivable asset which is included in the “Other assets, net” line item in our consolidated balance sheets. We review our unbilled straight-line rent receivable balance to determine the future collectability of revenue that will not be billed to or collected from tenants due to early lease terminations, lease modifications, bankruptcies and other factors. Our evaluation is based on our assessment of tenant credit risk changes indicating that expected future straight-line rent may not be realized. Depending on circumstances, we may provide a reserve against the previously recognized straight-line rent receivable asset for a portion, up to its full value, that we estimate may not be received. The balance of straight-line rent receivable at
December 31, 2017
and
2016
, net of allowances of
$2.7 million
and
$3.2 million
was
$19.4 million
and
$18.8 million
, respectively. To the extent any of the tenants under these leases become unable to pay its contractual cash rents, we may be required to write down the straight-line rent receivable from that tenant, which would reduce our operating income.
Real Estate
Real estate assets that we own directly are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives for computing depreciation are generally
10
–
40
years for buildings and improvements and
5
–
30
years for parking lot surfacing and equipment. We capitalize all capital improvement expenditures associated with replacements and improvements to real property that extend the property's useful life and depreciate them over their estimated useful lives ranging from
15
–
25
years. In addition, we capitalize qualifying tenant leasehold improvements and depreciate them over the lesser of the useful life of the improvements or the term of the related tenant lease. We also capitalize direct internal and external costs of procuring leases and amortize them over the base term of the lease. If a tenant vacates before the expiration of its lease, we charge unamortized leasing costs and undepreciated tenant leasehold improvements of no future value to expense. We charge maintenance and repair costs that do not extend an asset’s life to expense as incurred.
Sale of a real estate asset is recognized when it is determined that the sale has been consummated, the buyer’s initial and continuing investment is adequate, our receivable, if any, is not subject to future subordination, and the buyer has assumed the usual risks and rewards of ownership of the asset. We will classify properties as held for sale when executed purchase and sales agreement contingencies have been satisfied thereby signifying that the sale is legally binding.
Acquisitions of properties are accounted for utilizing the acquisition method and, accordingly, the results of operations of an acquired property are included in our results of operations from the date of acquisition. Estimates of fair values are based upon future cash flows and other valuation techniques in accordance with our fair value measurements policy, which are used to allocate the purchase price of acquired property among land, buildings on an “as if vacant” basis, tenant improvements, identifiable intangibles and any gain on purchase. Identifiable intangible assets and liabilities include the effect of above-and below-market leases, the value of having leases in place (“as-is” versus “as if vacant” and absorption costs), other intangible assets such as assumed tax increment revenue bonds and out-of-market assumed mortgages. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of
40 years
for buildings, and over the remaining terms of any intangible asset contracts and the respective tenant leases, which may include bargain renewal options. The impact of these estimates, including estimates in connection with acquisition values and estimated useful lives, could result in significant differences related to the purchased assets, liabilities and subsequent depreciation or amortization expense.
Real estate also includes costs incurred in the development of new operating properties and the redevelopment of existing operating properties. These properties are carried at cost and no depreciation is recorded on these assets until the commencement of rental revenue or no later than
one
year from the completion of major construction. These costs include pre-development costs directly identifiable with the specific project, development and construction costs, interest, real estate taxes and insurance. Interest is capitalized on land under development and buildings under construction based on the weighted average rate applicable to our borrowings outstanding during the period and the weighted average balance of qualified assets under development/redevelopment during the period. Indirect project costs associated with development or construction of a real estate project are capitalized until the earlier of
one
year following substantial completion of construction or when the property becomes available for occupancy.
The capitalized costs associated with development and redevelopment projects are depreciated over the useful life of the improvements. If we determine a development or redevelopment project is no longer probable, we expense all capitalized costs which are not recoverable.
F-11
It is our policy to start vertical construction on new development projects only after the project has received entitlements, significant anchor leasing commitments, construction financing and joint venture partner commitments, if appropriate. We are in the entitlement and pre-leasing phases at our development projects.
Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We review our investment in real estate, including any related intangible assets, for impairment on a property-by-property basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the property may not be recoverable. These changes in circumstances include, but are not limited to, changes in occupancy, rental rates, tenant sales, net operating income, real estate values and expected holding period. The viability of all projects under construction or development, including those owned by unconsolidated joint ventures, is regularly evaluated under applicable accounting requirements, including requirements relating to abandonment of assets or changes in use. To the extent a project, or individual components of the project, is no longer considered to have value, the related capitalized costs are charged against operations.
Impairment provisions resulting from any event or change in circumstances, including changes in management’s intentions or management’s analysis of varying scenarios, could be material to our consolidated financial statements.
We recognize an impairment of an investment in real estate when the estimated undiscounted cash flow is less than the net carrying value of the property. If it is determined that an investment in real estate is impaired, then the carrying value is reduced to the estimated fair value as determined by cash flow models and discount rates or comparable sales in accordance with our fair value measurement policy.
In 2017, we recorded impairment provisions totaling
$1.0 million
and
$8.4 million
, related to developable land and on shopping centers classified as income producing, respectively. The adjustment related to land was triggered by unforeseen increases in development costs and changes in associated sales price assumptions. The impairment provision on income producing properties was related to the Company's decision to market for potential sale certain wholly-owned income producing properties.
Investments in Real Estate Joint Ventures
We have
four
equity investments in unconsolidated joint venture entities in which we own
30%
or less of the total ownership interest. Under
three
of the joint ventures, because we can influence but not make significant decisions without our partners' approval, these investments are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. We provide leasing, development, asset and property management services to these joint ventures for which we are paid fees.
The fourth joint venture operating agreement does not provide any of the equity holders substantive kick-out rights nor substantive participating rights, therefore we have concluded it is a variable interest entity. We have evaluated all explicit and implicit interests and further concluded we do not control the entity, nor are we the primary beneficiary. Because we do not control the joint venture we do not consolidate it as a variable interest entity, but instead account for it using the equity method. Refer to Note 6 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for further information regarding our equity investments in unconsolidated joint ventures.
We review our equity investments in unconsolidated entities for impairment on a venture-by-venture basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the equity investment may not be recoverable. In testing for impairment of these equity investments, we primarily use cash flow models, discount rates, and capitalization rates to estimate the fair value of properties held in joint ventures, and mark the debt of the joint ventures to market. Considerable judgment by management is applied when determining whether an equity investment in an unconsolidated entity is impaired and, if so, the amount of the impairment. Changes to assumptions regarding cash flows, discount rates or capitalization rates could be material to our consolidated financial statements.
There were
no
impairment provisions on our equity investments in joint ventures recorded in
2017
, 2016 or 2015.
Deferred Financing Costs
Debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability is presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. Unamortized debt issuance costs of
$3.8 million
and
$3.7 million
are included in Notes payable, net as of
December 31, 2017
and
2016
, respectively.
F-12
Debt issuance costs associated with a line of credit arrangement is classified as an asset and subsequently amortized ratably over the term of the line of credit arrangement, regardless of whether there are any outstanding borrowings on the line of credit arrangement. Unamortized debt issuance costs related to our unsecured revolving credit facility of
$2.7 million
and
$1.2 million
are included in Other assets, net as of
December 31, 2017
and
2016
, respectively.

Other assets consist primarily of acquired development agreement intangibles, an acquired ground lease intangible, straight-line rent receivable, deferred leasing costs, deferred financing costs related to our unsecured revolving credit facility and prepaid expenses. Deferred financing costs related to our unsecured revolving credit facility and leasing costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the terms of the respective agreements, which approximates the effective interest method. Should a tenant terminate its lease, the unamortized portion of the leasing cost is expensed. Unamortized deferred financing costs are expensed when the related agreements are terminated before their scheduled maturity dates. Lastly, the acquired development agreement and acquired ground lease intangible assets are amortized over the terms of the respective agreements as well.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash balances in individual banks may exceed the federally insured limit by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”). As of
December 31, 2017
, we had
$11.1 million
in excess of the FDIC insured limit.
Recognition of Share-based Compensation Expense
We grant share-based compensation awards to employees and trustees in the form of restricted common shares and in the past we have granted stock options to employees and trustees. Our share-based award costs are equal to each grant date fair value and are recognized over the service periods of the awards using the graded vesting method. See Note 15 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for further information regarding our share based compensation.
Income Tax Status
We made an election, and believe our operating activities permit us, to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, we generally will not be subject to federal income tax, provided that we distribute at least
90%
of our taxable income annually to our shareholders and meet other conditions. We are obligated to pay state taxes, generally consisting of franchise or gross receipts taxes in certain states which are not material to our consolidated financial statements.
Certain of our operations, including property and asset management, as well as ownership of certain land parcels, are conducted through taxable REIT subsidiaries, (“TRSs”) which are subject to federal and state income taxes. During the years ended
December 31, 2017
,
2016
, and
2015
, we sold various properties and land parcels at a gain, resulting in both a federal and state tax liability. See Note 16 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for further information regarding income taxes.
Variable Interest Entities
Certain entities that do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties or in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest qualify as VIEs. VIEs are required to be consolidated by their primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary of a VIE has both (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact economic performance of the VIE, and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
We have evaluated our investments in joint ventures and determined that
three
of our joint ventures do not meet the requirements of a VIE and, therefore, consolidation of these ventures is not required. While the fourth joint venture does meet the requirements of a VIE, we have concluded we are not the primary beneficiary and therefore do not consolidate the entity. Accordingly, all our investments are accounted for using the equity method.
Noncontrolling Interest in Subsidiaries
There are third parties who have certain noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership that are exchangeable for our common shares on a
1
:
1
basis or cash, at our election. Noncontrolling interest is classified as a separate component of equity outside of the permanent equity section of our consolidated balance sheets. Consolidated net income and comprehensive income includes the noncontrolling interest’s share. The calculation of earnings per share is based on income available to common shareholders.
F-13
Segment Information
Our primary business is the ownership, management, redevelopment, development and operation of retail shopping centers. We do not distinguish our primary business or group our operations on a geographical basis for purposes of measuring performance. We review operating and financial data for each property on an individual basis and define an operating segment as an individual property. The individual properties have been aggregated into
one
reportable segment based upon their similarities with regard to both the nature and economics of the centers, tenants and operational processes, as well as long-term financial performance. No one individual property constitutes more than
10%
of our revenue or property operating income and none of our shopping centers is located outside the United States. Accordingly, we have a single reportable segment for disclosure purposes.
2. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2017-01, "Clarifying the Definition of a Business" ("ASU 2017-01"). ASU 2017-01 changes the definition of a business to exclude acquisitions where substantially all of the fair value of the assets acquired are concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets. While there are various differences between the accounting for an asset acquisition and a business combination, the largest impact is that certain transaction costs are capitalized for asset acquisitions rather than expensed when they are considered business combinations. ASU 2017-01 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018; however the Company early adopted this standard during the first quarter of 2017. Transaction costs of
$0.6 million
have been capitalized in connection with our 2017 acquisitions.
In 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-07 "Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting" ("ASU 2016-07"). ASU 2016-07 eliminates the requirement that when an investment qualifies for use of the equity method as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence, an investor must adjust the investment, results of operations, and retained earnings retroactively on a step-by-step basis as if the equity method had been in effect during all previous periods that the investment had been held. The amendments require that the equity method investor add the cost of acquiring the additional interest in the investee to the current basis of the investor’s previously held interest and adopt the equity method of accounting as of the date the investment becomes qualified for equity method accounting. Therefore, upon qualifying for the equity method of accounting, no retroactive adjustment of the investment is required. The amendments also requires that an entity that has an available-for-sale equity security that becomes qualified for the equity method of accounting recognize through earnings the unrealized holding gain or loss in accumulated other comprehensive income at the date the investment becomes qualified for use of the equity method. The amendments should be applied prospectively upon their effective date to increases in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence that result in the adoption of the equity method. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2017 and it did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB updated ASC Topic 718 "Compensation - Stock Compensation" with ASU 2016-09 "Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting" ("ASU 2016-09"). ASU 2016-09 simplifies several aspects of share-based payment award transactions, including tax consequences, classification of awards and the classification on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual periods (including interim periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2016. The adoption of this standard resulted in classifying cash paid by the Company to taxing authorities when directly withholding shares upon vesting as financing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12 "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities" ("ASU 2017-12"). These amendments refine and expand hedge accounting for both financial (e.g., interest rate) and commodity risks. Its provisions create more transparency around how economic results are presented, both on the face of the financial statements and in the footnotes. It also makes certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of hedge accounting guidance. It is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years, however the Company early adopted this standard during the fourth quarter of 2017. The adoption resulted in a cumulative effect adjustment of approximately
$0.2 million
as reflected in the consolidated statements of stockholders' equity.
F-14
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-13 "'Revenue Recognition (Topic 605), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Leases (Topic 840), and Leases (Topic 842): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to the Staff Announcement at the July 20, 2017 EITF Meeting and Rescission of Prior SEC Staff Announcements and Observer Comments" ("ASU 2017-13"). The amendments in ASU 2017-13 amend the early adoption date option for certain companies related to the adoption of ASU 2014-09 related to revenue and ASU 2016-02 related to leases and is effective consistent with each of these updates. The adoption of this update is not anticipated to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09 "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting" ("ASU 2017-09"). ASU 2017-09 clarifies guidance about what changes to the terms and conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. It is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. The adoption of this standard is not anticipated to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05 "Other Income - Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets" ("ASU 2017-05"). ASU 2017-05 clarifies that a financial asset is within the scope of Subtopic 610-20 if it meets the definition of an in substance nonfinancial asset. ASU 2017-05 also defines the term in substance nonfinancial asset. In addition, ASU 2017-05 eliminates the guidance specific to real estate sales in ASC 360-20. It is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We will adopt ASU 2017-05 simultaneously with the new revenue standard using the modified retrospective method on January 1, 2018.
In preparing for the adoption of ASU 2017-05, the Company identified the sale of a nonfinancial asset (real estate) in the fourth quarter of 2017 that the new guidance applies to. As such, the Company anticipates an adjustment under the modified retrospective method on January 1, 2018 of approximately
$2.2 million
to equity associated with this transaction. The adjustment will have no impact on earnings or cash flows in 2018.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04 "Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment" ("ASU 2017-04"). ASU 2017-04 simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairment by removing Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and should be applied on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. We do not anticipate the adoption of ASU 2017-04 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18 "Statement of Cash Flows". This new guidance is effective January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted, and requires amounts that are generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents to be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The pronouncement requires a retrospective transition method of adoption. Upon adoption, the Company will include amounts generally described as restricted cash within the beginning-of-period, change and end-of-period total amounts on the statement of cash flows rather than within an activity on the statement of cash flows.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15 "Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments" ("ASU 2016-15"), which clarifies the treatment of several cash flow categories. In addition, ASU 2016-15 clarifies that when cash receipts and cash payments have aspects of more than one class of cash flows and cannot be separated, classification will depend on the predominant source or use. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted, including adoption in an interim period. We are currently evaluating the guidance and have not determined the impact this standard may have on our consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB updated Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 326 "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses" with ASU 2016-13 “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” ("ASU 2016-13"). ASU 2016-13 enhances the methodology of measuring expected credit losses to include the use of forward-looking information to better inform credit loss estimates. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual periods (including interim periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2019. We are currently evaluating the guidance and have not determined the impact this standard may have on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB updated ASC Topic 842 "Leases" ("ASU 2016-02"). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to record operating and financing leases as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet and lessors to expense costs that are not direct leasing costs. ASU 2016-02 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted using a modified retrospective approach. The Company continues to evaluate the effect the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on our consolidated
F-15
financial statements and related disclosures. However, we currently believe the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will not have a material impact for operating leases where we are a lessor and we will continue to record revenues from rental properties for operating leases on a straight-line basis. In addition, for leases where the Company is a lessee, primarily the Company’s ground lease and administrative office lease, the Company believes it will record a lease liability and a right of use asset at fair value upon adoption related to these items. Also under this new pronouncement, non-lease components of new or modified leases, including common area maintenance reimbursements, will be accounted for under the Revenue from Contracts with Customers guidance described below. The Company anticipates that it will be required to bifurcate certain lease revenues between lease and non-lease components. Additionally, only incremental direct leasing costs may be capitalized under this new guidance. The Company expects to adopt this new guidance on January 1, 2019 and will continue to evaluate the impact of this guidance until it becomes effective.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASU 2014-09"). ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive revenue recognition standard that will supersede nearly all existing GAAP revenue recognition guidance as well as impact the existing GAAP guidance governing the sale of non-financial assets. The standard’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it satisfies performance obligations, by transferring promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for fulfilling those performance obligations. In doing so, companies will need to exercise more judgment and make more estimates than under existing GAAP guidance. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for public entities for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and early adoption is permitted in periods ending after December 15, 2016. The guidance permits two methods of adoption: retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (full retrospective method), or retrospectively with the cumulative effect initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application (modified retrospective method). We will adopt the standard and the related updates subsequently issued by the FASB using the modified retrospective method on January 1, 2018.
ASU 2014-09 applies only to certain revenue included in Other Property Income and Management and Other Fee Income in our Consolidated Statement of Operations which approximate
$4.8 million
or less than
2.0%
of total revenue. The timing of revenue recognition associated with these items is expected to remain substantially unchanged and no adjustment is expected upon adoption.
In addition, ASU 2014-09 may result in additional disclosures associated with disaggregation of revenue, contract balances included in the consolidated balance sheet, information associated with our performance obligations included in our contracts with customers, significant judgments and changes in judgments made by management around contracts, and assets recognized from costs to obtain or fulfill a contract, where applicable.

Construction in progress represents existing development, redevelopment and tenant build-out projects. When projects are substantially complete and ready for their intended use, balances are transferred to land or building and improvements as appropriate.
Land available for development or sale includes real estate projects where vertical construction has yet to commence, but which have been identified by us and are available for future development when market conditions dictate the demand for a new shopping center.

In November
2017
, we disposed of Millennium Park to an entity in which we hold a
30.0%
equity interest. Net proceeds from closing excluded
$3.0 million
which was used to fund our equity investment. In addition, as a result of our continuing involvement with the shopping center, we deferred approximately
$2.2 million
of gain on the transaction.
In September
2016
, approximately
$19.0 million
of the proceeds related to the Livonia Plaza disposition were placed into escrow at closing for the acquisition of Centennial Shops under an Internal Revenue Code 1031 exchange.
In August
2016
, we conveyed the title to and interest in The Towne Center at Aquia to the mortgage lender for the property. At the time of conveyance, the outstanding balance of the mortgage loan was
$11.8 million
, resulting in a loss on extinguishment of debt of
$0.8 million
.

During 2017, the Company's decision to market for potential sale certain wholly-owned income producing properties resulted in an impairment provision of $
8.4 million
. The adjustment was triggered by changes in the associated market prices and expected hold period assumptions related to these shopping centers.
During 2017, changes in the expected use and changes in associated sales price assumptions related to land held for development or sale resulted in an impairment provision of
$1.0 million
.
During 2016 and 2015, unforeseen increases in development costs and changes in associated sales price assumptions related to land held for development or sale resulted in impairment provisions of
$1.0 million
and
2.5 million
, respectively.

6. Equity Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
We have
four
joint venture agreements whereby we own
7%
,
20%
,
30%
and
30%
, respectively, of the equity in each joint venture.
Under
three
of the joint ventures, we and the joint venture partners have joint approval rights for major decisions, including those regarding property operations. We cannot make significant decisions without our partner’s approval. Accordingly, we account for our interest in the joint ventures using the equity method.
The fourth joint venture was created in November 2017. The Company became a
30.0%
equity investor in the entity for
$3.0 million
. In connection with the formation of the joint venture, the joint venture also acquired the Millennium Park shopping center from the Company. The partial disposal resulted in a deferred gain of approximately
$2.2 million
. The operating agreement of the joint venture does not provide the equity investors substantive kick-out rights nor substantive participating rights, therefore we have concluded it is a variable interest entity. The Company has evaluated all explicit and implicit interests and further concluded we do not control the entity, nor are we the primary beneficiary. Because we do not control the joint venture we do not consolidate it as a variable interest entity, but instead account for it using the equity method. As of
December 31, 2017
, the Company's exposure to loss in the variable interest joint venture approximated the carrying value of its equity investment of
$0.8 million
.
Combined financial information of our unconsolidated joint ventures is summarized as follows:

During 2015 Ramco 450 sold all of the properties from the joint venture. Ramco acquired its partners interest in
six
properties, our joint venture partner acquired our interest in
one
property and the final property, Chester Springs, was sold to an unrelated third party. The
seven
properties sold to partners in the venture generated a gain of
$65.6 million
, our share,
$13.1 million
, is recognized in the earnings (loss) from unconsolidated joint ventures. Ramco 450 recognized the gain as a distribution to the partners.

In November 2017, we disposed of Millennium Park to an entity in which we hold a
30.0%
equity interest. Net proceeds from closing excluded
$3.0 million
which was used to fund our equity investment. In addition, as a result of our continuing involvement with the shopping center, we deferred approximately
$2.2 million
of gain on the transaction.

Acquired lease intangible assets have a remaining weighted-average amortization period of
10.3
years as of
December 31, 2017
. These intangible assets are being amortized over the lives of the applicable lease. Amortization of lease origination costs is an increase to amortization expense and amortization of above-market leases is a reduction to minimum rent revenue over the applicable terms of the respective leases. Amortization of the above market lease asset resulted in a reduction of revenue of approximately
$2.0 million
,
$2.5 million
, and
$3.1 million
for the years ended
December 31, 2017

Senior unsecured notes and unsecured term loans
We completed the following financing transactions during
2017
:
The Company closed a
$75.0 million
private placement of senior unsecured notes. The notes were issued in three tranches with terms of
5
,
10
, and
12
years and a weighted average interest rate of
4.46%
. Proceeds were used to pay off without penalty
two
existing mortgages and for general corporate purposes.
In addition, the Company amended and repriced its
$75.0 million
term loan due
2021
. The transaction reduced the loan’s interest rate by
35 basis points
for the remainder of the term.
Our
$820.0 million
of senior unsecured notes and unsecured term loans have interest rates ranging from
2.84%
to
4.74%
and are due at various maturity dates from
May 2020
through
December 2029
.
Mortgages
During
2017
we had the following mortgage transactions:
|
•
|
In November
2017
, we repaid a maturing mortgage note secured by Market Plaza totaling
$14.3 million
with an interest rate of
2.86%
.
|
F-25
|
•
|
In December
2017
, we repaid a mortgage note secured by Jackson Crossing totaling
$22.3 million
with an interest rate of
5.76%
.
|
Our
$120.9 million
of fixed rate mortgages have interest rates ranging from
3.76%
to
7.38%
and are due at various maturity dates from
December 2019
through
June 2026
. The fixed rate mortgage notes are secured by mortgages on properties that have an approximate net book value of
$179.9 million
as of
December 31, 2017
.
We have
no
mortgages maturing in
2018
and only
one
mortgage maturing in
2019
for
$3.0 million
. It is our intent to repay this mortgage using cash flow from operations, borrowings under our unsecured line of credit, or other sources of financing.
The mortgage loans encumbering our properties are generally nonrecourse, subject to certain exceptions for which we would be liable for any resulting losses incurred by the lender. These exceptions vary from loan to loan but generally include fraud or a material misrepresentation, misstatement or omission by the borrower, intentional or grossly negligent conduct by the borrower that harms the property or results in a loss to the lender, filing of a bankruptcy petition by the borrower, either directly or indirectly and certain environmental liabilities. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain events, such as fraud or filing of a bankruptcy petition by the borrower, we or our joint ventures would be liable for the entire outstanding balance of the loan, all interest accrued thereon and certain other costs, including penalties and expenses.
We have entered into mortgage loans which are secured by multiple properties and contain cross-collateralization and cross-default provisions. Cross-collateralization provisions allow a lender to foreclose on multiple properties in the event that we default under the loan. Cross-default provisions allow a lender to foreclose on the related property in the event a default is declared under another loan.
Revolving Credit Facility
In September
2017
, the Company closed on its amended and restated
$350.0 million
unsecured revolving credit facility. The credit facility matures September
2021
and can be extended
one
year to
2022
through
two
six
-month options. Borrowings on the credit facility are priced on a leverage grid ranging from LIBOR plus
130
basis points to LIBOR plus
195
basis points. At
December 31, 2017
borrowings were priced at LIBOR plus
135
basis points. Additionally, the facility allows for increased borrowing capacity up to
$650.0 million
through an accordion feature.
During
2017
we had net payments of
$56.0 million
on our revolving credit facility and had outstanding letters of credit issued under our revolving credit facility, not reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, totaling
$1.3 million
. These letters of credit reduce borrowing availability under our bank facility. As of
December 31, 2017
,
$318.7 million
was available to be drawn on our
$350.0 million
unsecured revolving credit facility subject to our compliance with certain covenants. As of
December 31, 2017
the variable interest rate was
2.71%
.
Junior Subordinated Notes
Our junior subordinated notes have a variable rate of LIBOR plus
3.30%
, for an effective rate of
4.68%
at
December 31, 2017
. The maturity date is January 2038.
Capital lease
At
December 31, 2017
we had a capital ground lease at our Buttermilk Towne Center with the City of Crescent Springs, Kentucky with a gross carrying value of
$13.2 million
classified as land. Total amounts expensed as interest relating to this lease were
$0.1 million
,
$0.1 million
and
$0.1 million
for each of the years ended
December 31, 2017
,
2016
, and
2015
respectively.
Covenants
Our revolving credit facility, senior unsecured notes and term loans contain financial covenants relating to total leverage, fixed charge coverage ratio, tangible net worth and various other calculations. As of
December 31, 2017
, we were in compliance with these covenants.

9. Acquired Lease Intangible Liabilities, Net
Acquired lease intangible liabilities, net were
$60.2 million
and
$63.7 million
as of
December 31, 2017
and
2016
, respectively. The lease intangible liabilities relate to below-market leases and are being accreted over the applicable terms of the acquired leases, which resulted in an increase in revenue of
$6.4 million
,
$5.9 million
, and
$5.8 million
for the years ended
December 31, 2017
,
2016
and
2015
, respectively.
We completed
two
acquisitions in
2017
and the purchase price allocations included
$6.6 million
of acquired lease intangible liabilities.
10. Fair Value
We utilize fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. Derivative instruments (interest rate swaps) are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, we, from time to time, may be required to record other assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, GAAP establishes three fair value levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. The assessed inputs used in determining any fair value measurement could result in incorrect valuations that could be material to our consolidated financial statements. These levels are:
|
Level 1
|
Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.
|
|
Level 2
|
Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.
|
|
Level 3
|
Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
|
The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for our assets and liabilities recorded at fair value.
F-27
Derivative Assets and Liabilities
All of our derivative instruments are interest rate swaps for which quoted market prices are not readily available. For those derivatives, we measure fair value on a recurring basis using valuation models that use primarily market observable inputs, such as yield curves. We classify derivative instruments as Level 2. Refer to Note 11 of notes to the consolidated financial statements for additional information on our derivative financial instruments.
The table below presents the recorded amount of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of
December 31, 2017
and
2016

Other Assets and Liabilities
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables and accounts payable and accrued liabilities are reasonable estimates of their fair values because of the short maturity of these financial instruments.
Debt
We estimated the fair value of our debt based on our incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements with the same remaining maturity and on the discounted estimated future cash payments to be made for other debt. The discount rates used approximate current lending rates for loans or groups of loans with similar maturities and credit quality, assumes the debt is outstanding through maturity and considers the debt’s collateral (if applicable). Since such amounts are estimates that are based on limited available market information for similar transactions, there can be no assurance that the disclosed value of any financial instrument could be realized by immediate settlement of the instrument. Fixed rate debt (including variable rate debt swapped to fixed through derivatives) with carrying values of
$940.9 million
and
$905.7 million
as of
December 31, 2017
and
2016
, respectively, have fair values of approximately
$940.8 million
and
$900.3 million
, respectively. Variable rate debt’s fair value is estimated to be the carrying values of
$58.1 million
and
$114.1 million
as of
December 31, 2017
and
2016
, respectively. We classify our debt as Level 2.
F-28
Net Real Estate
Our net real estate, including any identifiable intangible assets, are regularly subject to impairment testing but marked to fair value on a nonrecurring basis. To estimate fair value, we use discounted cash flow models that include assumptions of the discount rates that market participants would use in pricing the asset. To the extent impairment has occurred, we charge to expense the excess of the carrying value of the property over its estimated fair value. We classify impaired real estate assets as nonrecurring Level 3.
The table below presents the recorded amount of assets at the time they were marked to fair value during the years ended
December 31, 2017
and
2016
on a nonrecurring basis. We did not have any material liabilities that were required to be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the years ended
December 31, 2017
and
2016

Equity Investments in Unconsolidated Entities
Our equity investments in unconsolidated joint venture entities are subject to impairment testing on a nonrecurring basis if a decline in the fair value of the investment below the carrying amount is determined to be a decline that is other-than-temporary. To estimate the fair value of properties held by unconsolidated entities, we use cash flow models, discount rates, and capitalization rates based upon assumptions of the rates that market participants would use in pricing the asset. To the extent other-than-temporary impairment has occurred, we charge to expense the excess of the carrying value of the equity investment over its estimated fair value. We classify other-than-temporarily impaired equity investments in unconsolidated entities as nonrecurring Level 3.
11. Derivative Financial Instruments
We utilize interest rate swap agreements for risk management purposes to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on our variable rate debt. We may also enter into forward starting swaps to set the effective interest rate on planned fixed rate financing. On the date we enter into an interest rate swap, the derivative is designated as a hedge against the variability of cash flows that are to be paid in connection with a recognized liability. Subsequent changes in the fair value of a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge that is determined to be highly effective are recorded in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) until earnings are affected by the variability of cash flows of the hedged transaction. The differential between fixed and variable rates to be paid or received is accrued, as interest rates change, and recognized currently as interest expense in our consolidated statements of operations. We assess effectiveness of our cash flow hedges both at inception and on an ongoing basis. Our cash flow hedges become ineffective if critical terms of the hedging instrument and the debt do not perfectly match such as notional amounts, settlement dates, reset dates, calculation period and LIBOR rate. At
December 31, 2017
, all of our hedges were highly effective.
As of
December 31, 2017
, we had
nine
interest rate swap agreements in effect for an aggregate notional amount of
$210.0 million
converting our floating rate corporate debt to fixed rate debt. In addition we have entered into
one
forward starting interest rate swap agreements for an aggregate notional amount of
$60.0 million
. All of our interest rate swap agreements are designated as cash flow hedges The agreements provide for swapping one-month LIBOR interest rates ranging from
1.460%
to
2.150%
and have expirations ranging from
October 2018
to
March 2023
.

|
The assumed conversion of preferred shares are anti-dilutive for all periods presented and accordingly, have been excluded from the weighted average common shares used to compute diluted EPS.
|
|
(2)
|
The effect of the conversion of Common OP Units is not reflected in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share, as they are exchangeable for Common Shares on a
one
-for-one basis. The income allocable to such units is allocated on this same basis and reflected as noncontrolling interests in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As such, the assumed conversion of these units would have no net impact on the determination of diluted earnings per share.

14. Shareholders’ Equity
Underwritten public offerings
We did not complete any underwritten public offerings in
2017
,
2016
nor
2015
.
Controlled equity offerings
In June
2016
, we terminated our previous controlled equity offering arrangement and commenced a new distribution agreement that registered up to
8.0 million
common shares for issuance from time to time, in our sole discretion. The shares issuable in the new distribution agreement are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission on our registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-211925). We issued no shares under the arrangement in either
2017
or
2016
.
In
2015
, through our previous controlled equity offering we issued
0.9 million
common shares at an average price of
$19.28
and received approximately
$17.1 million
in net proceeds, after sales commissions and fees of
$0.3 million
.

$1.5 million
and
$3.8 million
, respectively.
Preferred Shares
As of
December 31, 2017
,
2016

1,848,539
shares of
7.25%
Series D Cumulative Convertible Preferred Shares (“Preferred Shares”) outstanding that have a liquidation preference of
$50
per share and par value
$0.01
per share, respectively. The Preferred Shares are convertible at any time by the holders to our common shares at a conversion rate of
$13.71
,
$13.94

Dividend reinvestment plan
We have a dividend reinvestment plan that allows for participating shareholders to have their dividend distributions automatically invested in additional shares of beneficial interest based on the average price of the shares acquired for the distribution.
15. Share-Based Compensation and Other Benefit Plans
Incentive and Stock Option Plans
As of
December 31, 2017
we have
one
share-based compensation plan in effect, the 2012 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2012 LTIP”). Under the plan our compensation committee may grant, subject to performance conditions as specified by the compensation committee, restricted shares, restricted share units, options and other awards for up to
2.0 million
of our common shares, units or stock options, of which
1.2 million
is available for issuance as of
December 31, 2017
.
The following share-based compensation plans have been terminated, except with respect to awards outstanding under each plan:
|
•
|
The 2009 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan ("2009 LTIP") which allowed for the grant of restricted shares, restricted share units, options and other awards to trustees, officers and other key employees; and
|
|
•
|
The 2008 Restricted Share Plan for Non-Employee Trustees (the "Trustees' Plan") which allowed for the grant of restricted shares to non-employee trustees of the Company;
|
We recognized total share-based compensation expense of
$4.4 million
,
$3.4 million
, and
$1.6 million
for
2017
,
2016
, and
2015
, respectively.
Restricted Stock Share-Based Compensation
Under the 2012 LTIP, the Company has made grants of service-based restricted shares, performance-based cash awards and performance-based equity awards.
The service-based employee restricted share awards include a
five
year vesting period and the compensation expense is recognized on a graded vesting basis. The service-based trustee restricted share awards include a
one
year vesting period. We recognized expense related to all restricted share awards of
$2.7 million
for the year ended
December 31, 2017
,
$2.9 million
for year ended December 31, 2016 and
$1.9 million
for the year ended December 31, 2015.
The performance-based cash awards granted prior to 2017 are earned subject to a future performance measurement based on a
three
-year shareholder return peer comparison (the “TSR Grants”). If the performance criterion is met the actual value of the grant earned will be determined and
50%
of the award will be paid in cash immediately while the balance will be paid in cash the following year. The performance-based equity awards granted in 2017 are also earned subject to a future performance measurement based upon a three-year shareholder return peer comparison. We recognized compensation expense of
$1.5 million
,
$0.5 million
and
$0.4 million
related to these performance awards recorded during the years ended
December 31, 2017
,
2016
and
2015
, respectively.
Pursuant to ASC 718 – Stock Compensation, we determine the grant date fair value of the cash and equity TSR Grants, and any subsequent re-measurements, based upon a Monte Carlo simulation model. We recognize the compensation expense ratably over the requisite service period and we are required to re-value the performance cash awards at the end of each quarter. We use the same methodology as was used at the initial grant date and adjust the compensation expense accordingly. If it is determined that the performance criteria will not be met, compensation expense previously recognized is reversed.

years.
Stock Option Share-Based Compensation
When we grant options, the fair value of each option granted, used in determining the share-based compensation expense, is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This model incorporates certain assumptions for inputs including risk-free rates, expected dividend yield of the underlying common shares, expected option life and expected volatility.
No
options were granted under the LTIP in the years ended
December 31, 2017
,
2016
and
2015
.

Other Benefit Plan
The Company has a defined contribution profit sharing plan and trust (the "Plan") with a qualified cash or deferred 401(k) arrangement covering all employees. Participation in the Plan is discretionary for all full-time employees who have attained the age of 21. The entry date eligibility is the first pay date of a quarter following the date of hire.
Our expense for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 was approximately
$0.2 million
,
$0.2 million
and
$0.2 million
, respectively.

16. Taxes
Income Taxes
We conduct our operations with the intent of meeting the requirements applicable to a REIT under sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code. In order to maintain our qualification as a REIT, we are required to distribute annually at least
90%
of our REIT taxable income, excluding net capital gain, to our shareholders. As long as we qualify as a REIT, we will generally not be liable for federal corporate income taxes.
Certain of our operations, including property management and asset management, as well as ownership of certain land, are conducted through our TRSs which allows us to provide certain services and conduct certain activities that are not generally considered as qualifying REIT activities.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the impact of temporary differences between the amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the bases of such assets and liabilities as measured by tax laws. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the amount where realization is more likely than not assured after considering all available evidence, including expected taxable earnings and potential tax planning strategies. Our temporary differences primarily relate to deferred compensation, depreciation, impairment charges and net operating loss carryforwards.
As of
December 31, 2017
, we had a federal and state deferred tax asset of
$6.7 million
and a valuation allowance of
$6.7 million
, which represents a decrease of
$4.4 million
from December 31, 2016. The decrease of
$4.4 million
is primarily attributable to the reduction in the federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% enacted by the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and effective for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017. Our deferred tax assets, such as net operating losses and land basis differences, are reduced by an offsetting valuation allowance where there is uncertainty regarding their realizability. We believe that it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will not generate sufficient taxable income to recognize the deferred tax assets. These future operations are primarily dependent upon the profitability of our TRSs, the timing and amounts of gains on land sales, and other factors affecting the results of operations of the TRSs.
If in the future we are able to conclude it is more likely than not that we will realize a future benefit from a deferred tax asset, we will reduce the related valuation allowance by the appropriate amount. The first time this occurs, it will result in a net deferred tax asset on our balance sheet and an income tax benefit of equal magnitude in our statement of operations in the period we made the determination.
During the years ended
December 31, 2017
,
2016
and 2015, we recorded an income tax provision of approximately
$143 thousand
,
$299 thousand
, and
$339 thousand
, respectively.
We had
no
unrecognized tax benefits as of or during the three year period ended
December 31, 2017
. We expect
no
significant increases or decreases in unrecognized tax benefits due to changes in tax positions within one year of
December 31, 2017
.
No
material interest or penalties relating to income taxes were recognized in the statement of operations for the years ended
December 31, 2017
,
2016
, and
2015
or in the consolidated balance sheets as of
December 31, 2017
,
2016
, and
2015
. It is our accounting policy to classify interest and penalties relating to unrecognized tax benefits as tax expense. As of
December 31, 2017
, returns for the calendar years
2014
through
2017
remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and various state and local tax jurisdictions. As of
December 31, 2017
, certain returns for calendar year
2013
also remain subject to examination by various state and local tax jurisdictions.
Sales Tax
We collect various taxes from tenants and remit these amounts, on a net basis, to the applicable taxing authorities.
17. Commitments and Contingencies
Construction Costs
In connection with the development and expansion of various shopping centers as of
December 31, 2017
, we had entered into agreements for construction costs of approximately
$20.8 million
.
F-36
Litigation
We are currently involved in certain litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. We are not aware of any matters that would have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Environmental Matters
We are subject to numerous federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations in the areas where we own or operate properties. We are not aware of any contamination which may have been caused by us or any of our tenants that would have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
As part of our risk management activities, we have applied and been accepted into state sponsored environmental programs which will expedite and assure satisfactory compliance with environmental laws and regulations should contaminants need to be remediated. We also have an environmental insurance policy that covers us against third party liabilities and remediation costs.
While we believe that we do not have any material exposure to environmental remediation costs, we cannot give absolute assurance that changes in the law or new discoveries of contamination will not result in additional liabilities to us.
18. Subsequent Events
We have evaluated subsequent events through the date that the consolidated financial statements were issued.
