NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION
Readers of this Quarterly Report should refer to the Companys (as defined below) audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 which are included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K (our Annual Report) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 (Commission File No. 1-34948), as certain footnote disclosures which would substantially duplicate those contained in our Annual Report have been omitted from this Quarterly Report. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation (which include only normal recurring adjustments) have been included in this Quarterly Report. Unless context otherwise requires, capitalized terms used, but not defined in this Quarterly Report, have the same meanings as in our Annual Report.
General
GGP Inc. (GGP or the Company), a Delaware corporation, was organized in July 2010 and is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust, referred to as a REIT. In these notes, the terms we, us and our refer to GGP and its subsidiaries.
GGP, through its subsidiaries and affiliates, is an owner and operator of retail properties. As of June 30, 2018, we are the owner, either entirely or with joint venture partners, of 125 retail properties.
Substantially all of our business is conducted through GGP Operating Partnership, LP (GGPOP), GGP Nimbus, LP (GGPN) and GGP Limited Partnership (GGPLP, and together with GGPN and GGPOP, the Operating Partnerships), subsidiaries of GGP. The Operating Partnerships own an interest in the properties that are part of the consolidated financial statements of GGP. As of June 30, 2018, GGP held approximately a 99% common equity ownership (without giving effect to the potential conversion of the Preferred Units and LTIP Units, each as defined below) of GGPLP and GGPN, while the remaining 1% was held by limited partners and certain previous contributors of properties to GGPOP.
GGPOP is the general partner of, and owns a 1.5% equity interest in GGPN and GGPLP. GGPOP has common units of limited partnership (Common Units), which are redeemable for cash or, at our option, shares of GGP common stock. It also has preferred units of limited partnership interest (Preferred Units), of which, certain Preferred Units can be converted into Common Units and then redeemed for cash or, at our option, shares of GGP common stock (Note 8). GGPOP also has full value long term incentive plan units and appreciation only long term incentive plan units (collectively LTIP Units), which are redeemable for cash or, at our option, shares of GGP common stock (Note 10).
In addition to holding ownership interests in various joint ventures, the Operating Partnerships generally conduct their operations through General Growth Management, Inc. (GGMI), General Growth Services, Inc. (GGSI) and GGPLP REIT Services, LLC (GGPRS). GGMI and GGSI are taxable REIT subsidiaries (TRSs), which provide management, leasing, tenant coordination, business development, marketing, strategic partnership and other services for a majority of our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates (defined below) and for substantially all of our Consolidated Properties, as defined below. GGSI also serves as a contractor to GGMI for these services. GGPRS generally provides financial, accounting, tax, legal, development, and other services to our Consolidated Properties.
We refer to our ownership interests in properties in which we own a majority or controlling interest and are consolidated under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) as the Consolidated Properties. We also own interests in certain properties through joint venture entities in which we own a noncontrolling interest (Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates) and we refer to those properties as the Unconsolidated Properties.
As previously announced, we had reached an agreement with Brookfield Property Partners L.P. (BPY), pursuant to which, among other things, BPY will acquire all of our outstanding shares of common stock, other than those that BPY and its affiliates already own. The transactions provide for distribution and consideration per GGP share of up to $23.50 in cash or a choice of either one BPY limited partnership unit or one newly created BPY U.S. REIT share of Brookfield Property REIT Inc. (BPR), the successor to GGP, subject to proration in each case, based on aggregate cash amount of $9.25 billion. The BPR shares were structured with the intention of providing an economic return equivalent to BPY units, including identical distributions. BPR shareholders will have the right to exchange each BPR share for one BPY unit or the cash equivalent of one BPY unit at the election of BPY. On
July 26, 2018, the company held a special meeting of its common stockholders. At the special meeting, holders of record of GGP common stock on June 22, 2018, the record date for the special meeting, voted upon and approved the transactions. The completion of the transactions remains subject to certain customary closing conditions. The company expects that the transactions will be completed by the end of August this year.
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of GGP, our subsidiaries and joint ventures in which we have a controlling interest. For consolidated joint ventures, the noncontrolling partners share of the assets, liabilities and operations of the joint ventures (generally computed as the joint venture partners ownership percentage) is included in noncontrolling interests in consolidated real estate affiliates as permanent equity of the Company. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Noncontrolling interests are included on our Consolidated Balance Sheets related to the Common, Preferred, and LTIP Units of GGPOP and are presented either as redeemable noncontrolling interests or as noncontrolling interests in our permanent equity. Each of the Operating Partnerships and our consolidated joint ventures are variable interest entities as the limited partners do not have substantive kick-out rights or substantive participating rights. However, as the Company holds a majority voting interest in the Operating Partnerships and our consolidated joint ventures, it qualifies for the exemption from providing certain of the disclosure requirements associated with variable interest entities.
We operate in a single reportable segment, which includes the operation, development and management of retail and other rental properties. Our portfolio is targeted to a range of market sizes and consumer tastes. Each of our operating properties is considered a separate operating segment, as each property earns revenues and incurs expenses, individual operating results are reviewed and discrete financial information is available. The Companys chief operating decision maker is comprised of a team of several members of executive management who use Company NOI in assessing segment operating performance. We do not distinguish or group our consolidated operations based on geography, size or type for purposes of making property operating decisions. Our operating properties have similar economic characteristics and provide similar products and services to our tenants. There are no individual operating segments that are greater than 10% of combined revenue, Company NOI or combined assets. Company NOI excludes certain non-cash and non-comparable items such as straight-line rent, depreciation expense and intangible asset and liability amortization, which are a result of our emergence from bankruptcy, acquisition accounting and other capital contribution or restructuring events. Further, all material operations are within the United States and no customer or tenant comprises more than 10% of consolidated revenues. As a result, the Companys operating properties are aggregated into a single reportable segment.
Properties
Real estate assets are stated at cost less any provisions for impairments. Expenditures for significant betterments and improvements are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense when incurred. Construction and improvement costs incurred in connection with the development of new properties or the redevelopment of existing properties are capitalized. Real estate taxes, interest costs, and internal costs associated with leasing and development overhead incurred during construction periods are capitalized. Capitalization is based on qualified expenditures and interest rates. Capitalized real estate taxes, interest costs, and internal costs associated with leasing and development overhead are amortized over lives which are consistent with the related assets.
Pre-development costs, which generally include legal and professional fees and other third-party costs directly related to the construction assets, are capitalized as part of the property being developed. In the event a development is no longer deemed to be probable of occurring, the capitalized costs are expensed (see also our impairment policies in this note below).
We periodically review the estimated useful lives of our properties, and may adjust them as necessary. The estimated useful lives of our properties range from 10-45 years.
Depreciation or amortization expense is computed using the straight-line method based upon the following estimated useful lives:
|
|
Years |
Buildings and improvements |
|
10 - 45 |
Equipment and fixtures |
|
3 - 20 |
Tenant improvements |
|
Shorter of useful life or applicable lease term |

Reclassifications
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18 which requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the reporting period in the total of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. The Company adopted this guidance on December 31, 2017, which changes our statements of cash flows and related disclosures for all periods presented. The following is a summary of our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash total as presented in our statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017:

For the six months ended June 30, 2017 the changes in restricted cash related to cash flows provided by operating activities of $16.0 million, restricted cash related to cash flows used in investing activities of $0.4 million and restricted cash related to cash flows used in financing activities of $2.8 million were reclassified.
Acquisitions of Operating Properties (Note 3)
Acquisitions of properties are typically accounted for as acquisitions of assets rather than acquisitions of a business. Accordingly, the results of operations of acquired properties have been included in the results of operations from the respective dates of acquisition and acquisition costs are capitalized. Estimates of future cash flows and other valuation techniques are used to allocate the purchase price of acquired property between land, buildings and improvements, equipment, assumed debt liabilities and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities such as amounts related to in-place tenant leases, acquired above and below-market tenant and ground leases, and tenant relationships.
Identifiable intangible assets and liabilities are calculated for above-market and below-market tenant and ground leases where we are either the lessor or the lessee. The difference between the contractual rental rates and our estimate of market rental rates is measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the leases, including significantly below-market renewal options for which exercise of the renewal option appears to be reasonably assured. The remaining term of leases with renewal options at terms significantly below market reflect the assumed exercise of such below-market renewal options and assume the amortization period would coincide with the extended lease term.
The gross asset balances of the in-place value of tenant leases are included in buildings and equipment in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Investments in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates (Note 5)
We account for investments in joint ventures where we own a non-controlling joint interest using either the equity method or the cost method. If we have significant influence but not control over the investment, we utilize the equity method. If we have neither control nor significant influence, we utilize the cost method. Under the equity method, the cost of our investment is adjusted for our share of the earnings of such Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates from the date of acquisition, increased by our contributions and reduced by distributions received. Under the cost method, the cost of our investment is not adjusted for our share of the earnings of such Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates from the date of acquisition and distributions are treated as earnings when received.
To determine the method of accounting for partially owned joint ventures, we evaluate the characteristics of associated entities and determine whether an entity is a variable interest entity (VIE). A limited partnership or other similar entity is considered a VIE unless a simple majority of limited partners (excluding limited partners that are under common control with the general partner) have substantive kick-out rights or participating rights. Accounting guidance amended the following: (i) modified the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are VIEs or voting interest entities, (ii) eliminated the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership, (iii) affected the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs, and (iv) provided a scope exception for certain entities. If an entity is determined to be a VIE, we determine which party is the primary beneficiary by analyzing whether we have both the power to direct the entitys significant economic activities and the obligation to absorb potentially significant losses or receive potentially significant benefits. Significant judgments and assumptions inherent in this analysis include the nature of the entitys operations, future cash flow projections, the entitys financing and capital structure, and contractual relationship and terms.
Primary risks associated with our VIEs include the potential of funding the entities debt obligations or making additional contributions to fund the entities operations.
Generally, the operating agreements with respect to our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates provide that assets, liabilities and funding obligations are shared in accordance with our ownership percentages. Therefore, we generally also share in the profit and losses, cash flows and other matters relating to our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates in accordance with our respective ownership percentages. Except for Retained Debt (as described in Note 5), differences between the carrying amount of our investment in the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates and our share of the underlying equity of our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates are typically amortized over lives ranging from 5 to 45 years. When cumulative distributions exceed our investment in the joint venture, the investment is reported as a liability in our consolidated financial statements. The liability is limited to our maximum potential obligation to fund contractual obligations, including recourse related to certain debt obligations.
Partially owned, joint ventures over which we have controlling financial interest are consolidated in our consolidated financial statements. In determining if we have a controlling financial interest, we consider factors such as ownership interest, authority to

make decisions, kick-out rights and substantive participating rights. Partially owned joint ventures where we do not have a controlling financial interest, but have the ability to exercise significant influence, are accounted for using the equity method.
To the extent that we contribute assets to a joint venture accounted for using the equity method, our investment in the joint venture is recorded at the fair value of the consideration of the assets that were contributed to the joint venture. We will recognize gains and losses on the contribution of our real estate to joint ventures, relating to our entire investment in the property, to the extent the buyer is independent of the Company, the collection of the sales price is reasonably assured, and we will not be required to support the operations of the property or its related obligations to an extent greater than our proportionate interest.
The combined summarized financial information of unconsolidated joint ventures is disclosed in Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
We continually analyze and assess reconsideration events, including changes in the factors mentioned above, to determine if the consolidation treatment remains appropriate. Decisions regarding consolidation of partially owned entities frequently require significant judgment by our management.
Revenue Recognition and Related Matters
Minimum rents are recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related operating leases, including the effect of any free rent periods. Minimum rents also include lease termination income collected from tenants to allow for the tenant to vacate their space prior to their scheduled termination dates, as well as accretion related to above-market and below-market tenant leases on acquired properties and properties that were recorded at fair value at the emergence from bankruptcy.
Overage rent is paid by a tenant when the tenants sales exceed an agreed upon minimum amount and is recognized on an accrual basis once tenant sales exceed contractual tenant lease thresholds and is calculated by multiplying the sales in excess of the minimum amount by a percentage defined in the lease.
Tenant recoveries are established in the leases or computed based upon a formula related to real estate taxes, insurance and other property operating expenses and are generally recognized as revenues in the period the related costs are incurred.
Accounting for real estate sales distinguishes between sales to a customer or non-customer for purposes of revenue recognition. Once we, as the seller, determine that we have a contract, we will identify each distinct non-financial asset promised to the counter-party and whether the counter-party obtains control and transfers risks and rewards of ownership of each non-financial asset to determine if we should derecognize the asset.
We provide an allowance for doubtful accounts against the portion of accounts receivable including straight-line rents, which is estimated to be uncollectible. Such allowances are reviewed each period based upon our recovery experience and the specific facts of each outstanding amount.
Management Fees and Other Corporate Revenues
Management fees and other corporate revenues primarily represent management and leasing fees, development fees, financing fees and fees for other ancillary services performed for the benefit of certain of the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates. Management fees are reported at 100% of the revenue earned from the joint venture in management fees and other corporate revenues on our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Our share of the management fee expense incurred by the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates is reported within equity in income of Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates on our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and in property management and other costs in the Condensed Combined Statements of Income in Note 5. The following table summarizes the management fees from affiliates and our share of the management fee expense:

Based upon the new revenue recognition guidance, we determined that typical management fees including property and asset management, construction and development management services, leasing services, property acquisition and disposition services and financing services, needed to be evaluated for each separate performance obligation included in the contract in order to determine timing of revenue recognition. Revenues from contracts within the scope of the new revenue recognition guidance were $50.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Management determined that property and asset management and construction and development management services each represent a series of stand-ready performance obligations satisfied over time with each day of service being a distinct performance obligation. For property and asset management services, we are compensated for our services through a monthly management fee earned based on a specified percentage of the monthly rental income or rental receipts generated from the property under management. For construction and development services, we are compensated for planning, administering and monitoring the design and construction of projects at our joint venture properties typically based on a percentage of project costs, hourly rate of development staff or a fixed fee. Revenues from such contracts were $43.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and are recognized over the life of the applicable contract.
Conversely, leasing services, property acquisition and disposition services and financing services are each considered to be a single performance obligation, satisfied as of a point in time. Our fee is paid upon the occurrence of certain contractual event(s) that may be contingent and pattern of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment. For these services, the obligation is the execution of the lease, closing of the sale or acquisition, or closing of the financing or refinancing. As such, revenues are recognized at the point in time when the respective obligation has been satisfied. Revenues from such contracts were $6.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
Impairment
Operating properties
We regularly review our consolidated properties for potential impairment indicators whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Impairment indicators are assessed separately for each property and include, but are not limited to, significant decreases in real estate property net operating income, significant decreases in occupancy percentage, debt maturities, changes in managements intent with respect to the properties and prevailing market conditions.
If an indicator of potential impairment exists, the property is tested for recoverability by comparing its carrying amount to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows. Although the carrying amount may exceed the estimated fair value of certain properties, a real estate asset is only considered to be impaired when its carrying amount cannot be recovered through estimated future undiscounted cash flows. To the extent an impairment provision is determined to be necessary, the excess of the carrying amount of the property over its estimated fair value is expensed to operations. In addition, the impairment provision is allocated proportionately to adjust the carrying amount of the asset group. The adjusted carrying amount, which represents the new cost basis of the property, is depreciated over the remaining useful life of the property.
Although we may market a property for sale, there can be no assurance that the transaction will be complete until the sale is finalized. However, GAAP requires us to utilize the Companys expected holding period of our properties when assessing recoverability. If we cannot recover the carrying value of these properties within the planned holding period, we will estimate the fair values of the assets and record impairment charges for properties when the estimated fair value is less than their carrying value.
Impairment indicators for pre-development costs, which are typically costs incurred during the beginning stages of a potential development and construction in progress, are assessed by project and include, but are not limited to, significant changes in the Companys plans with respect to the project, significant changes in projected completion dates, tenant demand, anticipated revenues or cash flows, development costs, market factors and sustainability of development projects.

Impairment charges are recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income when the carrying value of a property is not recoverable and it exceeds the estimated fair value of the property, which can occur in accounting periods preceding disposition and/or in the period of disposition.
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded a $38.4 million impairment charge on our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income related to one operating property that has non-recourse debt maturing during 2019 that exceeds the fair value of the operating property. No provisions for impairment were recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2018.
No provisions for impairment were recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.
Changes in economic and operating conditions that occur subsequent to our review of recoverability of our properties could impact the assumptions used in that assessment and could result in future impairment if assumptions regarding those properties differ from actual results.
Investment in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates
A series of operating losses of an investee or other factors may indicate that an other-than-temporary decline in value of our investment in an Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliate has occurred. The investment in each of the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates is evaluated for valuation declines below the carrying amount. Accordingly, in addition to the property-specific impairment analysis that we performed for such joint ventures (as part of our operating property impairment process described above), we also considered whether there were other-than-temporary declines with respect to the carrying values of our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates.
No impairments related to our investments in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates were recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.
Changes in economic and operating conditions that occur subsequent to our review of recoverability of our investments in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates could impact the assumptions used in that assessment and could result in future impairment if assumptions regarding those investments differ from actual results.
Notes Receivable
Notes receivable are evaluated for impairment at least quarterly. Impairment occurs when it is deemed probable that we will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan. If a loan is considered to be impaired, we record an allowance through the provision for loan losses to reduce the carrying value of the loan to the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loans contractual effective rate or the fair value of the collateral, if repayment is expected solely from the collateral.
No impairments related to our notes receivable were recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.
Held for Disposition
As of June 30, 2018, a non-refundable deposit of significance was received from the buyer for one property, making the sale probable. Therefore, the property was considered held for disposition as of June 30, 2018. Total assets held for disposition were $120.7 million, which included $119.4 million of net investment in real estate, and total liabilities held for disposition were $100.7 million, which included $100.0 million of mortgages, notes and loans payable. The property was subsequently sold on July 13, 2018 (Note 17).
Fair Value Measurements (Note 4)
The accounting principles for fair value measurements establish a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include:
· Level 1 - defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
GGP INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
(Unaudited)
· Level 2 - defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
· Level 3 - defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
Note 4 includes a discussion of properties measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis using Level 2 and Level 3 inputs and the fair value of debt, which is estimated on a recurring basis using Level 2 and Level 3 inputs. Note 8 includes a discussion of certain redeemable noncontrolling interests that are measured at fair value using Level 1 inputs.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. We are exposed to credit risk with respect to cash held at various financial institutions and access to our credit facility. Our credit risk exposure with regard to our cash and the $1.5 billion, including the uncommitted accordion feature, available under our credit facility is spread among a diversified group of investment grade financial institutions. We had $260.0 million outstanding and no amount outstanding under our credit facility as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Based upon the new revenue recognition guidance, revenue recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 is not significantly different as compared to what would have been recognized in the same period under guidance that was in effect before the change. Effective January 1, 2018, companies are required to apply a five-step model in accounting for revenue. The core principle of the revenue model is that a company recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Lease contracts are excluded from this revenue recognition criteria; however, the sale of real estate is required to follow the new model. Expanded quantitative and qualitative disclosures regarding revenue recognition are required for contracts that are subject to this pronouncement. The new standard can be adopted either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or on a modified retrospective approach as a cumulative effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company adopted the model effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach for implementation. We elected to use the practical expedient to apply the model only to contracts not yet completed as of the date of adoption. The adoption resulted in a cumulative-effect adjustment to increase equity as of January 1, 2018 of approximately $1.90 million related to changes in the revenue recognition pattern of lease commissions earned by the Company from our joint ventures and the sale of condos in our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates (Note 5).
In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02 which will require organizations that lease assets to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases. Under ASU 2016-02, a lessee will be required to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. Lessor accounting remains substantially similar to current GAAP. However, leasing costs that are currently eligible to be capitalized as initial direct costs are limited by ASU 2016-02. In addition, disclosures of leasing activities are to be expanded to include qualitative along with specific quantitative information. For public entities, ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. ASU 2016-02 mandates a modified retrospective transition method. The Company expects to adopt this guidance on January 1, 2019 and will continue to evaluate the potential impact of this pronouncement on its consolidated financial statements until the guidance becomes effective.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 which changes the model for the measurement of credit losses on financial instruments. Specifically, the amendments in the ASU replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The amendments in this ASU will be effective for the Company January 1, 2020 with early adoption permitted on January 1, 2019. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this pronouncement on its consolidated financial statements.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16 which changed the current income tax accounting for intra-entity asset sales to be only for inventory. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2018. For those companies that did not recognize the income tax impact of a sale other than inventory before the adoption date, the new ASU was applied on a modified retrospective

(Unaudited)
basis, with a cumulative-effect adjustment directly to retained earnings as of January 1, 2018. This resulted in a cumulative-effect adjustment to decrease retained earnings by the unamortized balance of the $18.8 million prepaid asset established in December 2016.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18 which requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the reporting period in the total of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. This standard is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The Company adopted this guidance on December 31, 2017, which changes our statements of cash flows and related disclosures for all periods presented.
In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05 which clarifies the accounting for the derecognition of nonfinancial assets by eliminating the exception in current GAAP for transfers of investments in real estate entities (including equity method investments). The amendments in this update provide guidance on the accounting of partial sales of nonfinancial assets and contributions of nonfinancial assets to a joint venture or other noncontrolling investee. Once this guidance is adopted, an entity would use the guidance in the new revenue recognition standard (discussed above) to determine whether it is transferring multiple, distinct assets and would recognize a gain or loss for each distinct asset transferred. When an entity transfers nonfinancial assets included in a subsidiary and retains or receives an equity interest, it first determines whether it has retained a controlling financial interest in the subsidiary. If so, the entity does not derecognize the assets and accounts for the sale of noncontrolling interest in the subsidiary under the consolidation guidance covering decreases in ownership which would result in recognizing a gain or loss. If an entity retains or receives a noncontrolling interest in the entity that owns the asset post-sale, that noncontrolling interest is considered noncash consideration and is included in the transaction price at its fair value. The retained noncontrolling interest is included at its fair value and results in an entity recognizing 100% of the gain on sale of the asset. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach for implementation. We elected to use the practical expedient to apply the standard only to contracts not yet completed as of the date of adoption. The adoption will result in higher gains on future sales of partial real estate interests due to recognizing 100% of the gain on the sale of the partial interest and recording the retained noncontrolling interest at fair value. As of the adoption date, January 1, 2018, there was no cumulative-effect adjustment recorded to retained earnings.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. For example, estimates and assumptions have been made with respect to allocating the purchase price of real estate acquisitions, the useful lives of assets, capitalization of development and leasing costs, provision for income taxes, recoverable amounts of receivables and deferred taxes, provision for loan loss, initial valuations and related amortization periods of deferred costs and intangibles, particularly with respect to acquisitions, impairment of long-lived assets, litigation related accruals and disclosures and fair value of debt. Actual results could differ from these and other estimates.
NOTE 3 ACQUISITIONS, SALES AND JOINT VENTURE ACTIVITY
On January 29, 2018, we completed the sale of a 49.49% joint venture interest in the Sears Box at Oakbrook Center for a sales price of $44.7 million, which resulted in a gain of $12.7 million recognized in gain from changes in control of investment properties and other for the six months ended June 30, 2018.
On September 15, 2016, joint ventures we formed with Simon Property Group and Authentic Brands Group LLC (ABG) acquired Aeropostale, Inc. (Aeropostale) for $80.0 million in total cash which included cash for working capital requirements of the retail business. The intellectual property and brand related assets were assigned to the Aero IpCo, LLC venture (IPCO) and the assets and liabilities necessary to run the stores were assigned to the Aero OpCo, LLC venture (OPCO). In connection with the transaction, our total investment was $20.4 million of cash contributed to the ventures for an effective ownership of approximately 26% in the two joint ventures. Aeropostale is a tenant at certain properties for which we receive rental income included in minimum rents on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

On December 29, 2017, we sold approximately 54% of our interest in IPCO to ABG for a sales price of $16.6 million, which resulted in a gain of $12.0 million recognized in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates - gain on investment on our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the year ended December 31, 2017. On March 30, 2018, ABG exercised their call right to purchase our remaining 46% interest in IPCO for a sales price of $13.9 million, which resulted in a gain of $10.4 million recognized in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates - gain on investment on our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the six months ended June 30, 2018. In addition, we invested $30.5 million in ABG units on December 29, 2017. The investment is considered a cost method investment and is included in investment in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
On June 30, 2017, we conveyed Lakeside Mall to the lender in full satisfaction of $144.5 million in outstanding debt. This transaction resulted in a $55.1 million gain on extinguishment of debt for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.
On June 9, 2017, we closed on the acquisition of our joint venture partners 50% interest in Neshaminy Mall located in Bensalem, Pennsylvania for a gross purchase price of $65.0 million. Post acquisition, we own 100% of the mall. Prior to the acquisition of the remaining interest, the carrying value for our investment was $55.2 million. As a result of this acquisition, the implied fair value of our previous investment in Neshaminy Mall is $33.7 million, resulting in a loss of $21.5 million, recognized in loss from changes in control of investment properties and other for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.
On May 12, 2017, we closed on the sale of Red Cliffs Mall in St. George, Utah for $39.1 million. The transaction netted proceeds of approximately $36.3 million and resulted in a gain on sale of $5.6 million recognized in gain from changes in control of investment properties and other for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017.
NOTE 4 FAIR VALUE
Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements
We estimate fair value relating to impairment assessments based upon discounted cash flow and direct capitalization models that include all projected cash inflows and outflows over a specific holding period, or the negotiated sales price, if applicable. Such projected cash flows are comprised of contractual rental revenues and forecasted rental revenues and expenses based upon market conditions and expectations for growth. Capitalization rates and discount rates utilized in these models are based on a reasonable range of current market rates for each property analyzed. Based upon these inputs, we determined that our valuations of properties using a discounted cash flow or a direct capitalization model were classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. For our properties for which the estimated fair value was based on negotiated sales prices, we determined that our valuation was classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The following table summarizes certain of our assets that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as a result of impairment charges recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2018. No impairment charges were recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

The fair value of our Junior Subordinated Notes approximates their carrying amount as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. We estimated the fair value of mortgages, notes and other loans payable using Level 2 and Level 3 inputs based on recent financing transactions, estimates of the fair value of the property that serves as collateral for such debt, historical risk premiums for loans of comparable quality, current LIBOR, U.S. treasury obligation interest rates and on the discounted estimated future cash payments to be made on such debt. The discount rates estimated reflect our judgment as to what the approximate current lending rates for loans or groups of loans with similar maturities and assume that the debt is outstanding through maturity. We have utilized market information as available or present value techniques to estimate the amounts required to be disclosed. Since such amounts are estimates that are based on limited available market information for similar transactions and do not acknowledge transfer or other repayment restrictions that may exist in specific loans, it is unlikely that the estimated fair value of any such debt could be realized by immediate settlement of the obligation.

(1) The Condensed Combined Statements of Income - Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates include income from Miami Design District subsequent to June 1, 2017.
(2) Includes management fees charged to the unconsolidated joint ventures by GGMI and GGSI.
The Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates represent our investments in real estate joint ventures that are not consolidated. We hold interests in 22 domestic joint ventures, comprising 38 U.S. retail properties and one joint venture in Brazil. Generally, we share in the profits and losses, cash flows and other matters relating to our investments in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates in

accordance with our respective ownership percentages. We manage most of the properties owned by these joint ventures. We account for investments in joint ventures where we own a non-controlling joint interest using either the equity method or the cost method. If we have significant influence but not control over the investment, we utilize the equity method. If we have neither control nor significant influence, we utilize the cost method. If we control the joint venture, we account for the venture as a consolidated investment.
On June 1, 2017, we received an additional 7.3% of our joint venture partners membership interests in Miami Design District in full satisfaction of two promissory notes for $57.6 million and $40.4 million, respectively, resulting in a total ownership of 22.3%. We determined that we had significant influence over the investment subsequent to the acquisition of the additional interest, and therefore we changed our method of accounting for this joint venture from the cost method to the equity method (Note 2).
On July 12, 2017, we closed on the acquisition of the remaining 50% interest in 8 anchor boxes included in the GSPH joint venture with Seritage. We had previously owned a 50% interest in the joint venture and accounted for the joint venture using the equity method of accounting, but as a result of the transaction we now account for this joint venture using the consolidation method of accounting. Simultaneously, we distributed the 4 remaining anchor boxes in GSPH to a newly formed joint venture, GSPHII, between GGP and Seritage in which the ownership interest remains at 50% for both joint venture partners, and we continue to account for this joint venture using the equity method of accounting. Finally, we acquired a 50% interest in 5 anchor boxes through a newly formed joint venture, GSPH2017, which we account for using the equity method of accounting.
On September 19, 2017, we entered into three transactions with affiliates of Thor related to joint ventures between GGP and Thor at 218 West 57th Street, 530 Fifth Avenue and 685 Fifth Avenue. As a result of these transactions, we changed our method of accounting for these three joint ventures from the equity method of accounting. We now consolidate the joint ventures with our joint venture partners share of equity included in noncontrolling interest.
Condominium Sales and Condominium Cost of Sales
On March 7, 2014, GGP formed a joint venture, AMX Partners, LLC, with Kahikolu Partners, LLC, for the purpose of constructing a luxury residential condominium tower (the Park Lane condominium project) on a site located within the Ala Moana Shopping Center. Under the previous revenue recognition guidance, the percentage of completion method was used to account for the sales revenue of the Park Lane condominium project. Upon adoption of the new revenue recognition standard (Note 2), risks and rewards of ownership and control over the condominium unit transfers upon the closing of the sale to the customer, and as such, the joint venture will recognize revenue for the condominium unit upon closing.
Unconsolidated Mortgages, Notes and Loans Payable, and Retained Debt
Our proportionate share of the mortgages, notes and loans payable of the unconsolidated joint ventures was $5.1 billion as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, including Retained Debt (as defined below). There can be no assurance that the Unconsolidated Properties will be able to refinance or restructure such debt on acceptable terms or otherwise, or that joint venture operations or contributions by us and/or our partners will be sufficient to repay such loans.
We have debt obligations in excess of our pro rata share of the debt for one of our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates (Retained Debt). This Retained Debt represents distributed debt proceeds of the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates in excess of our pro rata share of the non-recourse mortgage indebtedness. The proceeds of the Retained Debt which were distributed to us are included as a reduction in our investment in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates. We had retained debt of $84.1 million at one property as of June 30, 2018, and $85.2 million as of December 31, 2017. We are obligated to contribute funds on an ongoing basis, as needed, to our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates in amounts sufficient to pay debt service on such Retained Debt. If we do not contribute such funds, our distributions from such Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates, or our interest in, could be reduced to the extent of such deficiencies. As of June 30, 2018, we do not anticipate an inability to perform on our obligations with respect to Retained Debt.

(4) $1.4 billion of the variable-rate balance is cross-collateralized.
(5) Includes deferred financing costs, which are shown as a reduction to the debt balance. See table below for the balance excluding deferred financing costs. Excludes $100.0 million categorized as held for disposition as of June 30, 2018 (Note 2).
Collateralized Mortgages, Notes and Loans Payable
As of June 30, 2018, $18.2 billion of land, buildings and equipment (before accumulated depreciation) and construction in progress have been pledged as collateral for our mortgages, notes and loans payable. Certain of these consolidated secured loans, representing $1.4 billion of debt, are cross-collateralized. Although a majority of the $12.7 billion of fixed and variable rate collateralized mortgages, notes and loans payable are non-recourse, $808.4 million of such mortgages, notes and loans payable are recourse to the Company as guarantees on secured financings. In addition, certain mortgage loans contain other credit enhancement provisions which have been provided by GGP. Certain mortgages, notes and loans payable may be prepaid but are generally subject to a prepayment penalty equal to a yield-maintenance premium, defeasance or a percentage of the loan balance.
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we refinanced a consolidated mortgage note at 685 Fifth Avenue. The prior $340.0 million variable-rate consolidated mortgage note matured on July 1, 2018 and had an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.75%. In connection with the refinancing, $100.0 million remained related to the commercial office unit and a new $275.0 million fixed-rate consolidated mortgage note with a term-to-maturity of 10.0 years and an interest rate of 4.53% was obtained on the retail unit. The $100.0 million was paid down in full in conjunction with the sale of the commercial office unit on July 13, 2018 (Note 17 ).
During the year ended December 31, 2017, we paid down a $73.4 million consolidated mortgage note at Four Seasons Town Centre. The prior loan had a term-to-maturity of 0.2 years and an interest rate of 5.6%. Four Seasons Town Centre subsequently replaced a property that was sold during the year ended December 31, 2017 as collateral in our $1.4 billion loan secured by cross-collateralized mortgages on 14 properties. In addition, we obtained a new consolidated mortgage note at Mall of Louisiana for $325.0 million with an interest rate of 3.98%. Finally, as a result of the three transactions at 218 West 57th Street, 530 Fifth Avenue and 685 Fifth Avenue, we now consolidate a total of $450.0 million consolidated mortgage notes with interest rates of LIBOR plus 2.75% and LIBOR plus 3.25%. Finally, we refinanced a $190.0 million consolidated mortgage note with a $110.0 million consolidated mortgage note at 530 Fifth Avenue. Both notes had an interest rate of LIBOR plus 3.25%. We manage our exposure to interest rate fluctuations related to this debt using interest rate cap agreements. However, our efforts to manage risks associated with interest rate volatility may not be successful.

(2) Excludes deferred financing costs of $6.4 million in 2017 that decrease the total amount that appears outstanding in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Our revolving credit facility (the Facility) as amended on October 30, 2015, provides for revolving loans of up to $1.1 billion. The Facility has an uncommitted accordion feature for a total facility of up to $1.5 billion. The Facility is scheduled to mature in October 2020 and is unsecured. Borrowings under the Facility bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 130 to 190 basis points or at a base rate plus 30 to 90 basis points, which is determined by the Companys leverage level. The Facility contains certain restrictive covenants which limit material changes in the nature of our business conducted, including, but not limited to, mergers, dissolutions or liquidations, dispositions of assets, liens, incurrence of additional indebtedness, dividends, transactions with affiliates, prepayment of subordinated debt, negative pledges and changes in fiscal periods. In addition, we are required not to exceed a maximum net debt-to-value ratio, a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum net cash interest coverage ratio; we are not aware of any instances of non-compliance with such covenants as of June 30, 2018. As of June 30, 2018, $260.0 million was outstanding on the Facility, including $100.0 million categorized as held for disposition as of June 30, 2018 (Note 2).
Junior Subordinated Notes
GGP Capital Trust I, a Delaware statutory trust (the Trust) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of GGPN, completed a private placement of $200.0 million of trust preferred securities (TRUPS) in 2006. The Trust also issued $6.2 million of Common Securities to GGPOP. The Trust used the proceeds from the sale of the TRUPS and Common Securities to purchase $206.2 million of floating rate Junior Subordinated Notes of GGPOP due 2036. Distributions on the TRUPS are equal to LIBOR plus 1.45%. Distributions are cumulative and accrue from the date of original issuance. The TRUPS mature on April 30, 2036, but may be redeemed beginning on April 30, 2011 if the Trust exercises its right to redeem a like amount of Junior Subordinated Notes. The Junior Subordinated Notes bear interest at LIBOR plus 1.45% and are fully recourse to the Company. We have recorded the Junior Subordinated Notes as a liability and our common equity interest in the Trust as prepaid expenses and other assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.
Letters of Credit and Surety Bonds
We had outstanding letters of credit and surety bonds of $42.4 million as of June 30, 2018 and $51.3 million as of December 31, 2017. These letters of credit and bonds were issued primarily in connection with insurance requirements, special real estate assessments and construction obligations.
We are not aware of any instances of non-compliance with our financial covenants related to our mortgages, notes and loans payable as of June 30, 2018.

NOTE 7 INCOME TAXES
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code. We intend to maintain REIT status. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement to distribute at least 90% of our taxable ordinary income. In addition, the Company is required to meet certain asset and income tests.
As a REIT, we will generally not be subject to corporate level Federal income tax on taxable income we distribute currently to our stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to Federal income taxes at regular corporate rates (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent taxable years. Even if we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we may be subject to certain state and local taxes on our income or property, and to Federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed taxable income and capital gains. We are currently statutorily open to audit by the Internal Revenue Service for the years ended December 31, 2014 through 2017 and are statutorily open to audit by state taxing authorities for the years ended December 31, 2013 through 2017. We have one TRS that has extended the statute of limitations for the year ended December 31, 2013 until September 30, 2018 for purposes of reviewing a carryback claim.
We have no unrecognized tax benefits recorded pursuant to uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2018.

The noncontrolling interest related to the Common, Preferred, and LTIP Units of GGPOP are presented either as redeemable noncontrolling interests in mezzanine equity or as noncontrolling interests in our permanent equity on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Classification as redeemable or permanent equity is considered on a tranche-by-tranche basis and is dependent on whether we could be required, under certain events outside of our control, to redeem the securities for cash by the holders of the securities. Those tranches for which we could be required to redeem the security for cash are included in redeemable equity. If we control the decision to redeem the securities for cash, the securities are classified as permanent equity.
The redeemable Common and Preferred Units of GGPOP are recorded at the greater of the carrying amount adjusted for the noncontrolling interests share of the allocation of income or loss (and its share of other comprehensive income or loss) and dividends or their redemption value (i.e. fair value) as of each measurement date. The excess of the fair value over the carrying amount from period to period is recorded within additional paid-in capital in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Allocation to noncontrolling interests is presented as an adjustment to net income to arrive at net income (loss) attributable to GGP Inc.

(Unaudited)
The common redeemable noncontrolling interests have been recorded at fair value for all periods presented. The preferred redeemable noncontrolling interests have been recorded at carrying value.
Generally, the holders of the Common Units share in any distributions by GGPOP with our common stockholders. However, the GGPOP operating partnership agreement permits distributions solely to GGP if such distributions were required to allow GGP to comply with the REIT distribution requirements or to avoid the imposition of excise tax. Under certain circumstances, the conversion rate for each Common Unit is required to be adjusted to give effect to stock distributions. If the holders had requested redemption of the Common and Preferred Units as of June 30, 2018, the aggregate amount of cash we would have paid would have been $171.1 million and $52.3 million, respectively.
GGPOP issued Preferred Units that are, or were, convertible into Common Units of GGPOP at the rates below (subject to adjustment). The holder may convert the Series D and Series E Preferred Units into Common Units of GGPOP at any time, subject to certain restrictions. The Common Units are convertible into common stock at approximately a one-to-one ratio at the current stock price.

Our Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRIP) provides eligible holders of GGPs common stock with a convenient method of increasing their investment in the Company by reinvesting all or a portion of cash dividends in additional shares of common stock. Eligible stockholders who enroll in the DRIP on or before the fourth business day preceding the record date for a dividend payment will be able to have that dividend reinvested. As a result of the DRIP elections, 11,239 shares were issued during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 28,693 shares were issued during the six months ended June 30, 2017.
Preferred Stock
On February 13, 2013, we issued, in a public offering, 10,000,000 shares of 6.375% Series A Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock (the Preferred Stock) at a price of $25.00 per share, resulting in net proceeds of $242.0 million after issuance costs. The Preferred Stock is recorded net of issuance costs within equity on our Consolidated Balance Sheets, and accrues a quarterly dividend at an annual rate of 6.375%. The dividend is paid in arrears in preference to dividends on our common stock, and reduces net income available to common stockholders, and therefore, earnings per share.
The Preferred Stock does not have a stated maturity date but we may redeem the Preferred Stock after February 12, 2018, for $25.00 per share plus all accrued and unpaid dividends. We may redeem the Preferred Stock prior to February 12, 2018, in limited circumstances that preserve ownership limits and/or our status as a REIT, as well as during certain circumstances surrounding a change of control. Upon certain circumstances surrounding a change of control, holders of Preferred Stock may elect to convert each share of their Preferred Stock into a number of shares of GGP common stock equivalent to $25.00 plus accrued and unpaid dividends, but not to exceed a cap of 2.4679 common shares (subject to certain adjustments related to GGP common share splits, subdivisions, or combinations).

NOTE 9 EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed after adjusting the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation for the effects of all potentially dilutive common shares. The dilutive effect of the warrants and the dilutive effect of options and their equivalents (including fixed awards and nonvested stock issued under stock-based compensation plans), are computed using the treasury method.
Information related to our EPS calculations is summarized as follows:

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, dilutive options and dilutive shares related to the warrants are included in the denominator of diluted EPS.
Outstanding Common Units and LTIP Units have also been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because including such units would also require that the share of GGPOP income attributable to such units be added back to net income therefore resulting in no effect on EPS. Outstanding Preferred Units have been excluded from the diluted EPS calculation for all periods presented because including the Preferred Units would also require that the Preferred Units dividend be added back to the net income, resulting in anti-dilution.
During the year ended December 31, 2017, Brookfield, Abu Dhabi Investment Authority and Future Fund Board of Guardians exercised warrants for 83,866,187 shares of common stock using both full and net share settlement.
GGP owned 55,969,390 shares of treasury stock as of June 30, 2018 and 2017. These shares are presented as common stock in treasury, at cost, on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Additionally, GGPN holds 27,459,195 shares of stock as a result of warrants purchased during the year ended December 31, 2013. These shares are presented as issued, but not outstanding on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Accordingly, these shares have been excluded from the calculation of EPS.

NOTE 10 STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS
The GGP Inc. 2010 Equity Plan (the Equity Plan) reserved for issuance of 4% of outstanding shares on a fully diluted basis. The Equity Plan provides for grants of nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, other stock-based awards and performance-based compensation (collectively, the Awards). Directors, officers and other employees of GGP and its subsidiaries and affiliates are eligible for the Awards. The Equity Plan is not subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. No participant may be granted more than 4,000,000 shares, or the equivalent dollar value of such shares, in any year. Options granted under the Equity Plan will be designated as either nonqualified stock options or incentive stock options. An option granted as an incentive stock option will, to the extent it fails to qualify as an incentive stock option, be treated as a nonqualified option. The exercise price of an option may not be less than the fair value of a share of GGPs common stock on the date of grant. The term of each option will be determined prior to the date of grant, but may not exceed 10 years.
On November 12, 2014, the Companys Equity Plan was amended to allow for the grant of LTIP Units to certain officers, directors, and employees of the Company as an alternative to the Companys stock options or restricted stock. LTIP Units are classes of partnership interests that under certain conditions, including vesting, are convertible by the holder into common units, which are redeemable by the holder for common shares on a one-to-one ratio (subject to adjustment for changes to GGPs capital structure) or for the cash value of such shares at the option of the Company.
On February 17, 2016, the Companys Equity Plan was amended to allow for the grant of restricted stock or LTIP Units to certain officers, directors, and employees of the Company that vest based on the achievement of certain established metrics that are based on the performance of the Company.
On January 1, 2017, the Company adopted ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation. This new guidance allowed us to make the election to account for share-based payment forfeitures when they occur versus estimating a forfeiture rate. This resulted in a cumulative effect of accounting change adjustment of $3.0 million to additional paid-in capital, noncontrolling interests related to LTIP Units and accumulated distributions in excess of earnings as of January 1, 2017.
Compensation expense related to stock-based compensation plans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, and 2017 is summarized in the following table in thousands:

NOTE 15 LITIGATION
In the normal course of business, from time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings relating to the ownership and operations of our properties.

GGP is subject to litigation related to the agreements with BPY (Note 1). GGP cannot predict the outcome of pending litigation, nor can it predict the amount of time and expense that will be required to resolve such litigation.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
CONSOLIDATED INCOME STATEMENTS FOR BPY
On March 26, 2018, Brookfield Property Partners L.P. (BPY) entered into a definitive merger agreement to acquire all of the outstanding shares of GGP Inc. (GGP) common stock held by unaffiliated GGP common stockholders (the merger agreement) through a series of transactions, including a pre-closing dividend and certain financing transactions, as described herein (collectively, the Transactions). On July 26, 2018, GGP shareholders approved the merger, which closed on August 28, 2018. The unaffiliated GGP common stockholders were entitled to receive, for each share of issued and outstanding GGP common stock and each share of GGP common stock deemed held, and subject to proration, total consideration of up to $23.50 in cash or one (1) share of class A stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Brookfield Property REIT Inc. (BPR and such stock class A stock), a new U.S. REIT security formed by recapitalizing GGP and amending its governing documents, or one limited partnership unit of BPY (a BPY unit) at the election of such GGP common stockholders (with deemed stockholders being deemed to have elected cash). Immediately following the effective time of the merger on August 28, 2018, BPY or an affiliate of BPY exchanged shares of class A stock distributed in the pre-closing dividend and held by unaffiliated GGP common stockholders who made (or were deemed to have made) an election to receive BPY units for an equal number of BPY units in the BPY unit exchange (as described below). Upon initial issuance, one (1) share of class A stock was intended to provide an economic return equivalent to one BPY unit, including identical distributions, and holders of class A stock have the right to exchange each share of class A stock for one BPY unit or the cash equivalent of one BPY unit, at the election of BP US REIT LLC (formerly, Brookfield Properties, Inc.), a subsidiary of BPY, in its sole discretion. The total consideration in the Transactions paid to unaffiliated GGP common stockholders consisted of (i) the pre-closing dividend consisting of class A stock, BPY units or cash at the election of such GGP common stockholders and subject to proration and (ii) merger consideration paid in cash. The cash portion of the consideration was funded by a combination of funds from joint venture equity partners, financings from a syndicate of lenders and asset-level financings and borrowings under a BPY corporate revolver.
The following unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements for BPY adjust BPYs consolidated income statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017 to give effect to (i) the acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of GGP common stock held by unaffiliated GGP common stockholders, including the pre-closing dividend and financing transactions, and (ii) the other pro forma adjustments described in the notes to these pro forma consolidated income statements. These pro forma adjustments are made as if the Transactions occurred as of January 1, 2017.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements have been prepared based upon elections made by unaffiliated GGP common stockholders and related Transactions, including payment of the pre-closing dividend and financing transactions, that occurred between the date the merger agreement was entered into and the consummation of the merger. Following the consummation of the merger, BPR is the surviving corporation succeeding the business of GGP. These unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements should be read in conjunction with BPYs financial statements and related disclosures, as applicable, which are included in certain of BPYs reports filed on Form 6-K and BPYs annual report filed on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2017. The preparation of the unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements requires BPY management to make estimates and assumptions deemed appropriate. The assumptions and estimates underlying the unaudited adjustments to the pro forma income statements are described in the accompanying notes, which should be read together with the pro forma income statements.
These unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements have been prepared based on the actual elections made by each unaffiliated GGP common stockholder to receive class A stock or BPY units. BPR class A stock is accounted for as a participating interest in BPY given that each BPR class A stock provides an economic return equivalent to one BPY limited partnership unit. Earnings per share of BPR class A stock are consistent with earnings per BPY limited partnership unit and BPR class A stock represents a proportionate share of total BPY unitholder equity. Consistent with the features of the class A stock, the exchange of a share of BPR class A stock into a BPY limited partnership unit following the consummation of the Transactions is not intended to change the economic rights of the exchanging stockholder. While BPY will receive additional class B stock in BPR to effect the exchange of class A stock, the exchange will not change the extent to which BPY participates in the economic returns from BPR and is not expected to be accounted for as an acquisition of additional interests in BPR or a step acquisition.
Unless otherwise stated, pro forma adjustments are preliminary and have been made solely for the purpose of providing unaudited pro forma financial information. Differences between these preliminary estimates and the final
accounting for these transactions may occur and these differences could have a material impact on the accompanying unaudited pro forma income statements. The unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements are not intended to represent, or be indicative of, the actual results of operations that would have occurred if the Transactions described therein had been effected on the dates indicated, nor are they indicative of BPYs future results.
All financial data in these unaudited pro forma income statements are presented in millions of U.S. dollars and have been prepared on a basis consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IFRS) and BPYs accounting policies. For the purposes of these pro forma income statements, the consolidated income statements for GGP and BPR, as its successor following consummation of the Transactions, for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and for the year ended December 31, 2017 have been conformed to IFRS and BPYs accounting policies for material accounting policy differences based on available information.

Notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Income Statements
1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF THE BUSINESS
BPY was formed as an exempted limited partnership under the laws of Bermuda, pursuant to a limited partnership agreement dated January 3, 2013, as amended and restated on August 8, 2013. BPY is a subsidiary of Brookfield Asset Management Inc. (BAM).
BPYs sole material asset at September 30, 2018 is a 47% managing general partnership unit interest in Brookfield Property L.P., which we refer to as BPY property partnership, which holds BPYs interest in commercial and other income producing property operations. BPYs interest in BPY property partnership is comprised solely of an interest in managing general partner units, which provide BPY with the power to direct the relevant activities of BPY property partnership.
The BPY units are listed and publicly traded on the NASDAQ and the Toronto Stock Exchange under the trading symbols BPY and BPY.UN, respectively.
The registered head office and principal place of business of BPY is 73 Front Street, 5th Floor, Hamilton HM 12, Bermuda.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
BPYs unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017 reflect adjustments that are: (i) directly attributable to the Transactions; (ii) factually supportable; and (iii) expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results following the consummation of the Transactions, which were completed on August 28, 2018.
BPYs unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements have been prepared using the consolidated income statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017. The unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements assume the Transactions, including the pre-closing dividend and financing transactions, occurred as of January 1, 2017. Due to the closing of the Transactions on August 28, 2018, the pro forma consolidated income statement reflects the actual results of BPR following the closing through to September 30, 2018 (with certain assumptions regarding performance of the business as a standalone entity and adjustments for nonrecurring items), as such activity is recorded within BPYs consolidated accounts following the August 28, 2018 closing.
The pro forma adjustments for the Transactions are made on the basis that the Transactions constitute a business combination that is accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with IFRS 3, Business Combinations. Accordingly, BPY has estimated the fair value of GGPs assets acquired and liabilities assumed and conformed GGPs accounting policies to its own for material policy differences and based on available information.
The unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements have been prepared based upon currently available information and assumptions deemed appropriate by BPY management and for informational purposes only and should be read in conjunction with BPYs and GGP/BPRs financial statements and related disclosures. The preparation of these unaudited pro forma income statements requires BPY management to make estimates and assumptions deemed appropriate. The unaudited pro forma income statements are not intended to represent, or be indicative of, the actual financial position and results of operations that would have occurred if the Transactions described below had been effected on the dates indicated, nor are they indicative of BPYs or GGP/BPRs future results.
3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting policies used in the preparation of BPYs unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements are those that are set out in BPYs consolidated financial statements included in BPYs latest annual report filed on Form 20-F. The adoption of IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (IFRS 15), and IFRS 9, Financial Instruments (IFRS 9), set out in BPYs interim condensed consolidated financial statements
included in BPYs 2018 third quarter report filed on Form 6-K, dated November 8, 2018, have been reflected in BPYs unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as at and for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The adoption of IFRS 15 did not result in any material change to the pattern of revenue recognition by BPY. BPY adopted the standard using the modified retrospective approach with no restatement of comparative financial information and did not record any adjustment upon adoption. BPY made additional disclosures in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as at and for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 as a result of the adoption. IFRS 9 did not have any material impact on BPYs condensed consolidated financial statements.
All financial data in these unaudited pro forma income statements are presented in millions of U.S. dollars.
While BPY prepares its financial statements consistent with IFRS, BPRs financial data have been prepared on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). However, the results of operations of BPR commencing August 28, 2018 are included in BPYs consolidated accounts and are therefore already conformed to IFRS and BPYs accounting policies from August 28, 2018 as the closing date of the Transactions is when BPY obtained control of BPR. Consequently, in order to present the pro forma consolidated income statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017 in alignment with IFRS and BPYs accounting policies, the consolidated income statements for GGP, as predecessor to BPR, for the period ended August 27, 2018 and for the year ended December 31, 2017 have also been conformed to IFRS from GAAP for material accounting policy differences.
The tables below present a reconciliation of GGPs consolidated statements of operations under GAAP to BPYs consolidated income statements under IFRS:

Material differences in accounting policies for the historical periods presented resulting in adjustments to GGPs results under GAAP include the following:
· Depreciation on consolidated investment properties of $444 million and $678 million reflected in GGPs consolidated statements of operations under GAAP for the period ended August 27, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively, was reversed, as BPY elected the fair value model to record its investment properties in its consolidated financial statements.
· Similarly, GGPs share of depreciation of unconsolidated properties of $201 million and $293 million recorded within equity in income of Unconsolidated Real Estates Affiliates within GGPs consolidated statements of operations for the period ended August 27, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively, was added back within share of net earnings from equity accounted investments under IFRS in conformity with BPYs financial statement presentation.
· Under the fair value model, investment properties are measured at fair value subsequent to initial recognition on the consolidated balance sheet. Consequently, for the period ended August 27, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, fair value losses of $1,598 million and $2,440 million, respectively, were reflected within fair value gains, net in BPYs consolidated income statements.
· Under IFRS, for the year ended December 31, 2017, fair value gains, net, of $398 million were recorded on warrants to purchase shares of GGP common stock, including on warrants held by BPY and its affiliates. Under GAAP, these warrants were not measured at fair value in 2017. The warrants were exercised in October and November 2017.
· An increase in net income of nil and $60 million for the period ended August 27, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively, resulting from differences in revenue recognition policies applied under IFRS related to certain residential development activities.
4. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS
This note should be read in conjunction with Note 2 to the unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements, Basis of Presentation. The unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements adjust BPYs consolidated income statements to give effect to the Transactions, including the pre-closing dividend and financing transactions, as if they occurred as of January 1, 2017. Due to the closing of the Transactions on August 28, 2018, the pro forma adjustments are generally made up to this date for purposes of the pro forma consolidated income statement for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, as the actual impact to the income statement is recorded within BPYs consolidated accounts from this date forward.
The pro forma adjustments set forth in this Note 4 are based on the actual elections made by each unaffiliated GGP common stockholder to receive class A stock or BPY units.
The following adjustments have been reflected in the unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements:
a) Acquisition of GGP (Brookfield Affiliate Exchange)
The unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements have been adjusted to reflect the results of operations of GGP for the period ended August 27, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017 before taking into consideration the sale of interests in certain properties to joint venture equity partners and acquisition financing but reflecting the derecognition of $(274) million and $179 million related to BPYs existing investment in GGP recorded within share of net earnings from equity accounted investments for the period ended August 27, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively. In addition, nil and $(268) million related to changes in the fair value of warrants of GGP held by BPY recorded within fair value gains, net, was derecognized for the period ended August 27, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively.
b) Pre-closing Transactions
The unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements have been adjusted to reflect the following:
i. The unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements have been adjusted to reflect the sale of joint venture interests in certain properties to fund the cash component of the Transactions as follows:
· Net loss of $730 million and $58 million related to the joint venture assets was derecognized for the period ended August 27, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively. Net loss recognized on the interests retained was $516 million and nil for the period ended August 27, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively. Additionally, the allocation of losses to non-controlling interests increased by $72 million and $94 million for the period ended August 27, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively, due to the increase in non-controlling interests of others in operating subsidiaries and properties.
· Property management fee income of $19 million and $18 million was recorded within investment and other revenue for fees to be paid by joint venture partners for the period ended August 27, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively, pursuant to the terms of the joint venture agreements.
ii. Financing of $5,536 million, for distribution to shareholders of GGP in connection with the transaction, as well as certain other related transactions, including the payoff of accrued dividends of $217 million, for which the related interest expense of $178 million at an assumed weighted average interest rate of 5.38% and $272 million at an assumed weighted-average interest rate of 5.38% for the period ended August 27, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively, have been reflected in the pro forma consolidated income statements. An increase in the assumed interest rate of 0.125% would result in incremental interest expense of $4 million and $7 million for the period ended August 27, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively.
iii. Payment of a pre-closing dividend and merger consideration to the holders of the outstanding shares of common stock of GGP, other than those currently held by BPY and its affiliates, totaling $14,447 million, comprised of $9,250 million in cash, including $200 million of merger consideration, share-based payment awards to GGP employees with a fair value of $28 million, $3,383 million in the form of class A stock and $1,786 million in the form of BPY units issued as part of the BPY unit exchange, for which the pro forma consolidated income statements reflect the allocation of BPYs net income to the class A stock consistent with the income allocation to limited partners of BPY.
c) Conversion of BPY Class C Junior Preferred Shares
The unaudited pro forma consolidated income statements have been adjusted to reflect the conversion of $500 million of BPY class C junior preferred shares held by BAM into BPY units at a price of $23.50 per unit, resulting in BAMs acquisition of approximately 21.3 million BPY units and the related reversal of interest expense of $22 million and $34 million for the period ended August 27, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively.
d) Transaction Expenses
Transaction expenses directly attributable to the Transactions of approximately $205 million and $1 million were added back to the period ended August 27, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017 pro forma consolidated income statements, respectively, as these transaction costs were non-recurring in nature.
e) Management Fee Expense
Pursuant to the master services agreement, certain BAM-owned entities provide certain management and administration services to BPR.
For the first twelve months following closing of the Transactions, BAM has agreed to waive management fees payable by BPR and the incremental management fees BPY would otherwise be required to pay in respect of the units issued in exchange for GGP common stock. The pro forma consolidated income statements, however, include an adjustment for the incremental management fees payable for illustrative purposes as such fees will be incurred and payable beginning during the second year following the Transactions. For the purposes of the pro
forma consolidated income statements, the management fee was calculated based on the issuance of approximately 161 million shares of class A stock and 88 million BPY units based on a price of $21.00 per share for illustrative purposes. The price of $21.00 is determined with reference to the trading price of the Class A stock at closing of the Transactions.
At a base management fee of 1.25% of BPR and BPYs capitalization, incremental management fees would have totaled $49 million and $66 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, respectively. Notwithstanding the waiver of the management fees, as noted above, the illustrative pro forma adjustment for the incremental management fees has been calculated for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, as such management fee expense will be recurring following the waiver period.
f) Bargain Purchase Gain and Remeasurement Loss
The acquisition of GGP was accounted for as a business combination achieved in stages. Immediately prior to the acquisition date of August 28, 2018, BPYs existing equity interest in GGP was remeasured to fair value based on BPYs interest in the fair value of the identifiable net assets and liabilities of GGP at the time. As a result of this remeasurement, a loss of approximately $580 million was recognized in fair value gains, net, within BPYs consolidated income statement for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
In connection with the acquisition of GGP on August 28, 2018, BPY recognized a bargain purchase gain of $657 million in fair value gains, net, within its consolidated income statement for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. BPY determined the purchase price allocation, on a provisional basis, is complete and appropriately measured giving consideration to fact that the fair value of the investment properties acquired was determined based on transaction prices agreed with third parties for the sale of partial interests in certain of the GGP assets and valuation models prepared by an independent external appraiser.
The bargain purchase gain of $657 million and the remeasurement loss of $580 million were removed for the purposes of the nine months ended September 30, 2018 pro forma consolidated income statement as they are non-recurring in nature and directly attributable to the Transactions.
As of September 30, 2018, the valuation of the investment properties, equity accounted investments, debt obligations, deferred tax liabilities, transaction costs, certain working capital balances and the acquisition date fair value of BPYs existing equity interest in GGP were still under evaluation by BPY. Accordingly, the business combination has been accounted for on a provisional basis.
