Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Report”), including Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Item 2 of Part I of this Report, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding: our corporate strategy and estimated or future economic performance and results, including our expectations surrounding the impact of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic on our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, and prospects; our future capital expenditure and leverage levels, debt service obligations, and plans to fund our liquidity needs; prospective statements regarding our access to the capital markets, including our “at-the-market” program (“ATM Program”) and settlement of our forward equity offering; the outlook for the investment programs that we manage, including possible liquidity events for those programs; statements that we make regarding our ability to remain qualified for taxation as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”); and the impact of recently issued accounting pronouncements and regulatory activity.

These statements are based on the current expectations of our management. It is important to note that our actual results could be materially different from those projected in such forward-looking statements. There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable risks or uncertainties, like the risks related to the effects of pandemics and global outbreaks of contagious diseases (such as the current COVID-19 pandemic) or the fear of such outbreaks, could also have material adverse effects on our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, and prospects. You should exercise caution in relying on forward-looking statements as they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may materially affect our future results, performance, achievements, or transactions. Information on factors that could impact actual results and cause them to differ from what is anticipated in the forward-looking statements contained herein is included in this Report, as well as in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including but not limited to those described in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, as filed with the SEC on February ~~21, 2020~~12, 2021 (the ~~“2019~~“2020 Annual Report”). Moreover, because we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment, new risks are likely to emerge from time to time. Given these risks and uncertainties, potential investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements as a prediction of future results, which speak only as of the date of this Report, unless noted otherwise. Except as required by federal securities laws and the rules and regulations of the SEC, we do not undertake to revise or update any forward-looking statements.

All references to “Notes” throughout the document refer to the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements of the registrant in Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements (Unaudited).

W. P. CAREY INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Note 1. Business and Organization

W. P. Carey Inc. (“W. P. Carey”) is a REIT that, together with our consolidated subsidiaries, invests primarily in operationally-critical, single-tenant commercial real estate properties located in the United States and Northern and Western Europe on a long-term basis. We earn revenue principally by leasing the properties we own to companies on a triple-net lease basis, which generally requires each tenant to pay the costs associated with operating and maintaining the property.

Founded in 1973, our shares of common stock are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “WPC.”

We elected to be taxed as a REIT under Section 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code effective as of February 15, 2012. As a REIT, we are not subject to federal income taxes on income and gains that we distribute to our stockholders as long as we satisfy certain requirements, principally relating to the nature of our income and the level of our distributions, as well as other factors. We also own real property in jurisdictions outside the United States through foreign subsidiaries and are subject to income taxes on our pre-tax income earned from properties in such countries. Through our taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”), we also earn revenue as the advisor to certain non-traded investment programs. We hold all of our real estate assets attributable to our Real Estate segment under the REIT structure, while the activities conducted by our Investment Management segment subsidiaries have been organized under TRSs.

On April 13, 2020, two of the non-traded REITs that we advised, Carey Watermark Investors Incorporated (“CWI 1”) and Carey Watermark Investors 2 Incorporated (“CWI 2”) (together, the “CWI REITs”), merged in an all-stock transaction, with CWI 2 as the surviving entity (the “CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger”). Following the close of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger, our advisory agreements with CWI 1 and CWI 2 were terminated, CWI 2 was renamed Watermark Lodging Trust, Inc. (“WLT”), and we began to provide certain services to WLT pursuant to a transition services agreement. As a result, at ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we were the advisor to the following entities (Note 3):

•Corporate Property Associates 18 – Global Incorporated (“CPA:18 – Global”), a publicly owned, non-traded REIT that primarily invests in commercial real estate properties; we refer to CPA:18 – Global together with the CWI REITs as the “Managed REITs” (as used throughout this Report, the term “Managed REITs” does not include CWI 1 and CWI 2 after April 13, 2020); and

•Carey European Student Housing Fund I, L.P. (“CESH”), a limited partnership formed for the purpose of developing, owning, and operating student housing properties and similar investments in Europe; we refer to the Managed REITs and CESH collectively as the “Managed Programs.”

We no longer raise capital for new or existing funds, but currently expect to continue managing CPA:18 – Global and CESH through the end of their respective life cycles (Note 3).

Reportable Segments

Real Estate — Lease revenues from our real estate investments generate the vast majority of our earnings. We invest primarily in commercial properties located in the United States and Northern and Western Europe, which are leased to companies on a triple-net lease basis. At ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, our owned portfolio was comprised of our full or partial ownership interests in ~~1,215~~1,261 properties, totaling approximately ~~142~~146 million square feet, substantially all of which were net leased to 351 tenants, with a weighted-average lease term of 10.6 years and an occupancy rate of ~~98.9%~~98.3%. In addition, at ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, our portfolio was comprised of full or partial ownership interests in 20 operating properties, including 19 self-storage properties and 1 hotel, totaling approximately 1.4 million square feet.

Investment Management — Through our TRSs, we manage ~~portfolios of~~the real estate ~~investments~~investment portfolios for the Managed Programs, for which we earn asset management revenue. We may earn incentive revenue and receive other compensation through our advisory agreements with certain of the Managed Programs, including in connection with providing liquidity events for CPA:18 – Global’s stockholders. In addition, we include equity income generated through our (i) ownership of shares and limited partnership units of the Managed Programs (Note 7) and (ii) special general partner interest in the operating partnership of CPA:18 – Global, through which we participate in its cash flows (Note 3), in our Investment Management segment.

W. P. Carey ~~9/30/2020~~3/31/2021 10-Q – 98

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

At ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, the Managed Programs owned all or a portion of 5152 net-leased properties (including certain properties in which we also have an ownership interest), totaling approximately ~~10.2~~10.6 million square feet, substantially all of which were leased to 6465 tenants, with an occupancy rate of approximately ~~98.9%~~98.7%. The Managed Programs also had interests in 7269 operating properties (totaling approximately ~~5.9~~5.6 million square feet in the aggregate) and 1210 active build-to-suit projects at the same date.

Note 2. Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

Our interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not necessarily include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair statement of our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”).

In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial information for the interim periods presented in this Report reflects all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. Our interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, which are included in the ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report, as certain disclosures that would substantially duplicate those contained in the audited consolidated financial statements have not been included in this Report. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of operating results for an entire year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and the disclosure of contingent amounts in our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Our consolidated financial statements reflect all of our accounts, including those of our controlled subsidiaries. The portions of equity in consolidated subsidiaries that are not attributable, directly or indirectly, to us are presented as noncontrolling interests. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

When we obtain an economic interest in an entity, we evaluate the entity to determine if it should be deemed a VIE and, if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary and are therefore required to consolidate the entity. There have been no significant changes in our VIE policies from what was disclosed in the ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we had a net decrease of 5 entities considered to be consolidated VIEs, primarily related to disposition activity and certain lease amendments, partially offset by acquisition activity.

At ~~September 30, 2020~~both March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, we considered ~~13 and 18~~12 entities to be VIEs, ~~respectively,~~ of which we consolidated ~~6 and 11, respectively,~~5, as we are considered the primary beneficiary. The following table presents a summary of selected financial data of the consolidated VIEs included in our consolidated balance sheets (in thousands):

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

At both ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, our 7 unconsolidated VIEs included our interests in 5 unconsolidated real estate investments, which we account for under the equity method of accounting, and 2 unconsolidated entities, which we accounted for at fair value. We do not consolidate these entities because we are not the primary beneficiary and the nature of our involvement in the activities of these entities allows us to exercise significant influence on, but does not give us power over, decisions that significantly affect the economic performance of these entities. As of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, the net carrying amount of our investments in these entities was ~~$340.6~~$438.8 million and ~~$298.3~~$425.3 million, respectively, and our maximum exposure to loss in these entities was limited to our investments.

~~COVID-19~~Reclassifications

~~The global COVID-19 pandemic has created significant uncertainty~~Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Asset management revenue and ~~economic disruption, both~~structuring and other advisory revenue are now included within Asset management and other revenue in the ~~near-term and likely longer-term. The extent to which this pandemic could affect our financial condition, liquidity, and results~~consolidated statements of ~~operations is difficult to predict and depends on evolving factors, including: duration, scope, government actions, and other social responses.~~income.

We ~~are closely monitoring~~currently present Non-operating income on its own line item in the impact of COVID-19 on all aspects of our business, including the safety and health of our employees, our portfolio, and tenant credit health (including our tenants’ ability to pay rent), as well as our liquidity, capital allocation, and balance sheet management. We continue to actively engage in discussions with our tenants regarding the impact of COVID-19 on their business operations, liquidity, prospects, and financial position.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, approximately $5.5 million and $14.0 million, respectively, of rent was not collected as a result of COVID-19, which reduced lease revenues in our consolidated statements of income, ~~for those periods. These amounts include $3.8 million~~which was previously included within Other gains and ~~$7.9 million, respectively,~~(losses). Non-operating income primarily consists of ~~rent that has been contractually deferred~~realized gains and losses on derivative instruments, dividends from equity securities, and interest income on our cash deposits and loans to future periods. In addition, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the same periods in 2019, for our remaining hotel operating property, revenues decreased by $3.3 million and $8.1 million, respectively, and expenses decreased by $1.8 million and $4.3 million, respectively, due to the adverse effect of COVID-19 on the hotel’s operations.affiliates.

Segment Allocation Changes

Beginning with the second quarter of 2020, general and administrative expenses attributed to our Investment Management segment are comprised of the incremental costs of providing services to the Managed Programs, which are fully reimbursed by those funds (resulting in no net expense for us). All other general and administrative expenses are attributed to our Real Estate segment. Previously, general and administrative expenses were allocated based on time incurred by our personnel for the Real Estate and Investment Management segments. In addition, beginning with the second quarter of 2020, stock-based compensation expense and corporate depreciation and amortization expense are fully recognized within our Real Estate segment. In light of the termination of the advisory agreements with CWI 1 and CWI 2 in connection with the WLT management internalization (Note 3), we now view essentially all assets, liabilities, and operational expenses as part of our Real Estate segment, other than incremental activities that are expected to wind down as we manage CPA:18 – Global and CESH through the end of their respective life cycles. These changes ~~within~~between the segments had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In addition, our investments in WLT, and income recognized from our investments in WLT, are included within our Real Estate segment, since we are not the advisor to that company. Previously, our investments in CWI 1 and CWI 2, and income recognized from our investments in CWI 1 and CWI 2, were included within our Investment Management segment (Note 3).

Revenue Recognition

There have been no significant changes in our policies for revenue from contracts under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 from what was disclosed in the ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report. ASC 606 does not apply to our lease revenues, which constitute a majority of our revenues, but primarily applies to revenues generated from our hotel operating properties and our Investment Management segment. Revenue from contracts for our Real Estate segment primarily represented operating property revenues of ~~$0.6~~$0.7 million and ~~$7.4~~$4.6 million for the three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 and 2020, ~~and 2019, respectively and $5.3 million and $21.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019,~~ respectively (N ~~ote~~Note 15). Revenue from contracts under ASC 606 from our Investment Management segment is discussed in Note 3.

Lease revenue (including straight-line lease revenue) is only recognized when deemed probable of collection. Collectibility is assessed for each tenant receivable using various criteria including credit ratings (Note 5), guarantees, past collection issues, and the current economic and business environment affecting the tenant. If collectibility of the contractual rent stream is not deemed probable, revenue will only be recognized upon receipt of cash from the tenant.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020, lease revenues decreased by $2.9 million due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic (including uncollected rent, as well as property vacancies and lease amendments). In addition, for the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020, for our remaining hotel operating property, revenues decreased by $2.0 million and expenses decreased by $1.5 million, due to the adverse effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the hotel’s operations.

~~Recent Accounting Pronouncements~~

~~Pronouncements Adopted as of September 30, 2020~~

~~In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)~~ ~~2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses~~. ASU 2016-13 replaces the “incurred loss” model with an “expected loss” model, resulting in the earlier recognition of credit losses even if the risk of loss is remote. This standard applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, including loans receivable and net investments in direct financing leases. This standard does not apply to receivables arising from operating leases, which are within the scope of ~~Topic 842~~.

We adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective method, under which we recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment as a charge to retained earnings of $14.8 million, which is reflected within our consolidated statement of equity.

~~The allowance for credit losses, which is recorded as a reduction to Net investments in direct financing leases on our consolidated balance sheets, was measured on a pool basis by credit ratings (Note 5~~), using a probability of default method based on the lessees’ respective credit ratings, the expected value of the underlying collateral upon its repossession, and our historical loss experience related to other direct financing leases. Included in our model are factors that incorporate forward-looking information. Allowance for credit losses is included in our consolidated statements of income within Other gains and (losses).

~~In March 2020, the FASB issued~~ ~~ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting~~. ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform-related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives, and other contracts. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. During the first quarter of 2020, we elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 3. Agreements and Transactions with Related Parties

~~CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger~~

~~Background and Closing~~

On October 22, 2019, CWI 1 and CWI 2 announced that they had entered into a definitive merger agreement under which the two companies intended to merge in an all-stock transaction, with CWI 2 as the surviving entity. The CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger was approved by the stockholders of CWI 1 and CWI 2 on April 8, 2020 and closed on April 13, 2020. Subsequently, CWI 2 was renamed WLT, as described in ~~Note 1~~.

~~W. P. Carey 9/30/2020 10-Q~~– 12

~~Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)~~

In connection with the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger, we entered into an internalization agreement and a transition services agreement, which were filed by us as exhibits to a Form 8-K filed with the SEC on October 22, 2019. Immediately following the closing of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger, (i) the advisory agreements with each of CWI 1 and CWI 2 and each of their respective operating partnerships terminated, (ii) the subadvisory agreements with the subadvisors for CWI 1 and CWI 2 were terminated, (iii) pursuant to the internalization agreement, two of our representatives were appointed to the board of directors of WLT (however both representatives resigned from the board of directors of WLT on April 29, 2020), and (iv) we provide certain transition services at cost to WLT for, what is currently expected to be, a period of approximately 12 months from closing, pursuant to a transition services agreement.

~~Consideration Received~~

In accordance with the merger agreement, at the effective time of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger, each issued and outstanding share of CWI 1’s common stock (or fraction thereof), was converted into the right to receive 0.9106 shares (the “exchange ratio”) of CWI 2 Class A common stock. As a result, we exchanged 6,074,046 shares of CWI 1 common stock for 5,531,025 shares of CWI 2 Class A common stock.

Pursuant to the internalization agreement, the operating partnerships of each of CWI 1 and CWI 2 redeemed the special general partner interests that we previously held, for which we received 1,300,000 shares of CWI 2 preferred stock with a liquidation preference of $50.00 per share and 2,840,549 shares in CWI 2 Class A common stock (which was a non-cash investing activity). In connection with this redemption, we recognized a non-cash net gain on sale of $33.0 million, which was included within Equity in earnings (losses) of equity method investments in the Managed Programs and real estate in the consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. This net gain on sale was recorded based on:

•~~a fair value of $46.3 million for the 1,300,000 shares of CWI 2 preferred stock that we received (Note 8~~);

•~~a fair value of $11.6 million for the 2,840,549 shares in CWI 2 common stock that we received (Note 7~~);

•a gain recognized on the redemption of the noncontrolling interest in the special general partner interests previously held by the respective subadvisors for CWI 1 and CWI 2 of $9.9 million (which is included within Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in our consolidated statements of income and Redemption of noncontrolling interest in our consolidated statements of equity);

•~~an allocation of $34.3 million of goodwill within our Investment Management segment in accordance with ASC 350,~~ ~~Intangibles~~—~~goodwill and other~~, since the WLT management internalization resulted in a sale of a portion of our Investment Management business (the allocation of goodwill was based on the relative fair value of the portion of the Investment Management business sold) (~~Note 6); and~~

•~~the carrying value of our previously held equity investments in the operating partnerships of CWI 1 and CWI 2 (Note 7), which totaled $0.5 million on the date of the merger.~~

We account for our investment in shares of WLT (formerly CWI 2) preferred stock as available-for-sale debt securities, which is included in Other assets, net in the consolidated financial statements, at fair value. We classified this investment as Level 3 because we primarily used a discounted cash flow valuation model that incorporates unobservable inputs to determine its fair value. The fair value of our investment in preferred shares of WLT approximated its carrying value, which was $46.3 million as of September 30, 2020 (~~Note 8~~). We will accrue and record dividend income on these preferred shares of 5% per annum, pursuant to the internalization agreement, only recognizing such income when deemed collectible. We did not record dividend income on our investment in preferred shares of WLT during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Prior to the closing of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger, we owned 3,836,669 shares of CWI 2 Class A common stock. Following the closing of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger, execution of the internalization agreement, and CWI 2 being renamed WLT, we own 12,208,243 shares of WLT common stock, which we account for as an equity method investment. We follow the hypothetical liquidation at book value (“HLBV”) model and recognize within equity income our proportionate share of WLT’s earnings based on our ownership of common stock of WLT, after giving effect to preferred dividends owed by WLT. We record our investment in shares of common stock of WLT on a one quarter lag. Our investment in shares of common stock of WLT, which is included in Equity investments in the Managed Programs and real estate in the consolidated financial statements (as an equity method investment in real estate), had a carrying value of $48.4 million as of September 30, 2020 (~~Note 7~~).

Advisory Agreements and Partnership Agreements with the Managed Programs

We currently have advisory agreements with CPA:18 – Global and CESH, pursuant to which we earn fees and are entitled to receive reimbursement for certain fund management expenses. Upon completion of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger on April 13, 2020, as described ~~above,~~below, our advisory agreements with CWI 1 and CWI 2 were terminated, and we no longer receive fees, reimbursements, or distributions of Available Cash from CWI 1 and CWI 2. We no longer raise capital for new or existing funds, but we currently expect to continue to manage CPA:18 – Global and CESH and earn various fees (as described below) through the end of their respective life cycles. We have partnership agreements with CPA:18 – Global and CESH, and under the partnership agreement with CPA:18 – Global, we are entitled to receive certain cash distributions from its operating partnership.

Asset Management Revenue

Under the advisory agreements with the Managed Programs, we earn asset management revenue for managing their investment portfolios. The following table presents a summary of our asset management fee arrangements with the remaining Managed Programs:

Managed Program

Rate

Payable

Description

CPA:18 – Global

0.5% – 1.5%

In shares of its Class A common stock and/or cash, at the option of CPA:18 – Global; payable 50% in cash and 50% in shares of its Class A common stock for ~~2019~~2020 through March 31, 2020; payable in shares of its Class A common stock effective as of April 1, 2020

Rate depends on the type of investment and is based on the average market or average equity value, as applicable

CESH

1.0%

In cash

Based on gross assets at fair value

For CWI 1 and CWI 2 (prior to the closing of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger on April 13, 2020), we earned asset management fees of 0.5% and 0.55%, respectively, of the average market values of their respective investment portfolios, paid in shares of their common stock and Class A common stock, respectively. We were required to pay 20% and 25% of such fees to the subadvisors of CWI 1 and CWI 2, respectively.

Structuring and Other Advisory Revenue

Under the terms of the advisory agreements with the Managed Programs, we earn revenue for structuring and negotiating investments. For CPA:18 – Global and CESH, we may earn fees of 4.5% and 2.0%, respectively, of the total aggregate cost of the investments or commitments made. For CWI 1 and CWI 2 (prior to the closing of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger on April 13, 2020), we were entitled to fees for structuring investments and loan refinancings. We were required to pay 20% and 25% of such fees to the subadvisors of CWI 1 and CWI 2, respectively.

Reimbursable Costs from Affiliates

The existing Managed Programs reimburse us in cash for certain personnel and overhead costs that we incur on their behalf. For CPA:18 – Global, such costs, excluding those related to our legal transactions group, our senior management, and our investments team, are charged to CPA:18 – Global based on the average of the trailing 12-month aggregate reported revenues of the Managed Programs and us, and personnel costs are capped at 1.0% of CPA:18 – Global’s pro rata lease revenues for both ~~2020~~2021 and ~~2019;~~2020; for the legal transactions group, costs are charged according to a fee schedule. For the CWI REITs, the reimbursements were based on actual expenses incurred, excluding those related to our senior management, and allocated between the CWI REITs based on the percentage of their total pro rata hotel revenues for the most recently completed quarter. Reimbursements from the CWI REITs ceased followingFollowing the closing of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger on April 13, ~~2020; after that date,~~2020, we began recording reimbursements from WLT pursuant to a transition services agreement (described ~~above)~~below) based on actual expenses incurred. For CESH, reimbursements are based on actual expenses incurred.

Distributions of Available Cash

We are entitled to receive distributions of up to 10% of the Available Cash (as defined in CPA:18 – Global’s partnership agreement) from the operating partnership of CPA:18 – Global, payable quarterly in arrears. ~~After completion of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger on April 13, 2020 (Note 3~~), we no longer receive distributions of Available Cash from CWI 1 and CWI 2. Prior to the closing of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger, we were required to pay 20% and 25% of such distributions to the subadvisors of CWI 1 and CWI 2, respectively.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Back-End Fees and Interests in the Managed Programs

Under our advisory agreements with certain of the Managed Programs, we may also receive compensation in connection with providing liquidity events for their stockholders. For CPA:18 – Global, the timing and form of such a liquidity event is at the discretion of its board of directors. Therefore, there can be no assurance as to whether or when any of these back-end fees or interests will be realized. Such back-end fees or interests include or may include disposition fees, interests in disposition proceeds, and distributions related to ownership of shares or limited partnership units in the Managed Programs. ~~Back-end fees and interests related to the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger are described above.~~

Other Transactions with Affiliates

CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger

The CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger closed on April 13, 2020 and is discussed in detail in the 2020 Annual Report. Subsequently, CWI 2 was renamed WLT, as described in Note 1.

In connection with the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger, we entered into an internalization agreement and a transition services agreement. Immediately following the closing of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger, (i) the advisory agreements with each of CWI 1 and CWI 2 and each of their respective operating partnerships terminated, (ii) the subadvisory agreements with the subadvisors for CWI 1 and CWI 2 were terminated, and (iii) we provided certain transition services at cost to WLT generally for a period of 12 months from closing. As of the date of this Report, all services provided under the transition services agreement have terminated, except for certain information systems and data services. Our investments in common stock and preferred stock of WLT are disclosed in Note 7 and Note 8, respectively.

Loans to Affiliates

From time to time, our board of directors (“the Board”) has approved the making of secured and unsecured loans or lines of credit from us to certain of the Managed Programs, at our sole discretion, generally for the purpose of facilitating acquisitions or for working capital purposes.

The principal outstanding balance on our ~~loans~~line of credit to ~~CESH~~CPA:18 – Global was ~~$46.3~~$21.1 million as of December 31, ~~2019, excluding accrued interest of $1.5 million. CESH~~2020. CPA:18 – Global repaid the principal outstanding balance in full during the ~~nine~~three months ended September 30, 2020 and the loan matured on October 1, 2020. In addition, the loan agreements with CWI 1 and CWI 2 were terminated upon completion of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger on April 13, 2020. In July 2020, we provided CPA:18 – Global with a short-term unsecured revolving line of credit (with a maximum authorized loan amount of $25.0 million), which had not been drawn upon as of September 30, 2020.

~~CPA:17 Merger~~

~~On October~~March 31, 2018, Corporate Property Associates 17 – Global Incorporated (“CPA:17 – Global”), a former affiliate, merged with and into one of our wholly owned subsidiaries (the “CPA:17 Merger”), which we accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting. The purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based upon their preliminary fair values at October 31, 2018. We identified certain measurement period adjustments during the third quarter of 2019 that impacted the provisional accounting. As a result, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recorded a loss on change in control of interests of $8.4 million on the purchase of the remaining interest in a real estate investment from CPA:17 – Global in the CPA:17 Merger.2021.

We account for 8 such investments under the equity method of accounting (Note 7) and consolidate the remaining investment. In addition, we owned stock of CPA:18 – Global and limited partnership units of CESH at that date. We accounted for ~~these investments~~our investment in CPA:18 – Global under the equity method of accounting ~~or at~~and elected to account for our investment in CESH under the fair value option (Note 7).

In connection with changes in lease classifications due to modifications of the underlying leases, we reclassified 55 properties with an aggregate carrying value of $166.0 million from Net investments in direct financing leases to Land, buildings and improvements subject to operating leases during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 (~~Note 5~~).March 31, 2021.

During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021, we determined that the tenant/seller in the January 2020 acquisition of an industrial facility in Aurora, Oregon, would not be able to secure an easement on the property. As a result, the tenant/seller forfeited $5.0 million of the initial purchase price that we held back at the time of acquisition, the release of which was contingent on securing the easement. Since we previously accounted for this as a contingent liability and ~~2019, respectively.~~included the $5.0 million holdback within our capitalized real estate, we reduced the carrying value of Land, buildings and improvements subject to operating leases by this amount during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and removed the corresponding liability from Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets.

In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we reduced the allowance for credit losses balance by $7.4 million, in connection with the reclassification of certain properties from Net investments in direct financing leases to Land, buildings and improvements subject to operating leases, as described below.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we sold 1 property accounted for as a direct financing lease that had a net carrying value of $0.3 million.

Loans Receivable

At both March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, we had 2 loans receivable related to a domestic investment with an aggregate carrying value of ~~$47.7 million.

Credit Quality of Finance Receivables

We generally invest in facilities that we believe are critical to a tenant’s business and therefore have a lower risk of tenant default. At both ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, no material balances of our finance receivables were past due. ~~Other than the lease modifications noted under~~ ~~Net Investments in Direct Financing Leases~~ ~~above, there~~There were no material modifications of finance receivables during the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2020.~~March 31, 2021.

We evaluate the credit quality of our finance receivables utilizing an internal five-point credit rating scale, with one representing the highest credit quality and five representing the lowest. A credit quality of one through three indicates a range of investment grade to stable. A credit quality of four through five indicates a range of inclusion on the watch list to risk of default. The credit quality evaluation of our finance receivables is updated quarterly. We believe the credit quality of our deferred acquisition fees receivable falls under category one, as CPA:18 – Global is expected to have the available cash to make such payments (Note 3).

A summary of our finance receivables by internal credit quality rating, excluding our deferred acquisition fees receivable and allowance for credit losses, is as follows (dollars in thousands):

Note 7. Equity Investments in the Managed Programs and Real Estate

We own interests in (i) the Managed Programs, (ii) certain unconsolidated real estate investments with CPA:18 – Global and third parties, and (iii) WLT. We account for our interests in these investments under the equity method of accounting (i.e., at cost, increased or decreased by our share of earnings or losses, less distributions, plus contributions and other adjustments required by equity method accounting, such as basis differences) or at fair value by electing the equity method fair value option available under GAAP.

We classify distributions received from equity method investments using the cumulative earnings approach. Distributions received are considered returns on the investment and classified as cash inflows from operating activities. If, however, the investor’s cumulative distributions received, less distributions received in prior periods determined to be returns of investment, exceeds cumulative equity in earnings recognized, the excess is considered a return of investment and is classified as cash inflows from investing activities.

Note 8. Fair Value Measurements

The fair value of an asset is defined as the exit price, which is the amount that would either be received when an asset is sold or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers are: Level 1, for which quoted market prices for identical instruments are available in active markets, such as money market funds, equity securities, and U.S. Treasury securities; Level 2, for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the instrument, such as certain derivative instruments including interest rate caps, interest rate swaps, and foreign currency collars; and Level 3, for securities that do not fall into Level 1 or Level 2 and for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring us to develop our own assumptions.

~~W. P. Carey 9/30/2020 10-Q~~– 24

~~Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)~~

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The methods and assumptions described below were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument. For significant Level 3 items, we have also provided the unobservable inputs.

Derivative Assets and Liabilities — Our derivative assets and liabilities, which are included in Other assets, net and Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively, in the consolidated financial statements, are comprised of foreign currency collars, interest rate swaps, interest rate caps, and stock warrants (Note 9).

The valuation of our derivative instruments (excluding stock warrants) is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, as well as observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves, spot and forward rates, and implied volatilities. We incorporate credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of our derivative instruments for the effect of nonperformance risk, we have considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts, and guarantees. These derivative instruments were classified as Level 2 as these instruments are custom, over-the-counter contracts with various bank counterparties that are not traded in an active market.

The stock warrants were measured at fair value using valuation models that incorporate market inputs and our own assumptions about future cash flows. We classified these assets as Level 3 because these assets are not traded in an active market.

Equity Investment in CESH — We have elected to account for our investment in CESH, which is included in Equity investments in the Managed Programs and real estate in the consolidated financial statements, at fair value by selecting the equity method fair value option available under GAAP (Note 7). We classified this investment as Level 3 because we primarily used valuation models that incorporate unobservable inputs to determine its fair value.

Investment in Shares of ~~a Cold Storage Operator~~Lineage Logistics — We have elected to apply the measurement alternative under ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments — Overall (Subtopic 825-10) to account for our investment in shares of aLineage Logistics (a cold storage ~~operator,~~REIT), which is included in Other assets, net in the consolidated financial statements. Under this alternative, the carrying value is adjusted for any impairments or changes in fair value resulting from observable transactions for similar or identical investments in the issuer. We classified this investment as Level 3 because it is not traded in an active market. During the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we recognized non-cash unrealized gains on our investment in shares of ~~a cold storage operator~~Lineage Logistics totaling ~~$48.8~~$23.4 million due to additional outside investments at a higher price per share, which was recorded within Other gains and (losses) in the consolidated financial statements. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2021, we received a cash dividend of $6.4 million from our investment in shares of Lineage Logistics, which was recorded within Non-operating income in the consolidated financial statements. See Note 13 for further discussion of the impact of ~~this cold storage operator’s~~Lineage Logistics’s conversion to a REIT during the first quarter of 2020. The fair value of this investment ~~approximated its carrying value, which~~ was ~~$195.0~~$313.4 million and ~~$146.2~~$290.0 million at ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. ~~In October 2020, we purchased additional shares of this cold storage operator for $95.5 million (~~N ~~ote 16~~).

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Investment in Shares of GCIF — We account for our investment in shares of Guggenheim Credit Income Fund (“GCIF”), which is included in Other assets, net in the consolidated financial statements, at fair value. We classified this investment as Level 2 because we used a quoted price from an inactive market to determine its fair value. During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we redeemed a portion of our investment in shares of GCIF for approximately ~~$3.7~~$0.8 million and recognized a net loss of ~~$0.4~~$0.1 million, which was included within Other gains and (losses) in the consolidated statements of income. ~~Distributions~~In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we received distributions from our investment in shares of ~~earnings from~~ GCIF totaling less than $0.1 million and ~~unrealized gains or losses recognized on GCIF are~~$0.2 million, respectively, which were recorded within ~~Other gains and (losses)~~Non-operating income in the consolidated financial statements. During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we recognized unrealized ~~losses~~gains on our investment in shares of GCIF totaling $0.3 million, due to ~~a decrease~~an increase in the net asset value of the ~~investment.~~investment, which was recognized within Other gains and (losses) in the consolidated financial statements. The fair value of our investment in shares of GCIF ~~approximated its carrying value, which~~ was ~~$7.7~~$5.5 million and ~~$12.2~~$6.1 million at ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively.

Investment in Preferred Shares of WLT — We account for our investment in preferred shares of WLT (Note 3), which is included in Other assets, net in the consolidated financial statements, as available-for-sale debt securities at fair value. The fair value was primarily determined by a discounted cash flow approach based on a weighted-average probability analysis of certain redemption options. We classified this investment as Level 3 because the discounted cash flow valuation model incorporates unobservable inputs to determine its fair value, including a cash flow discount rate of 15%. The fair value of our investment in preferred shares of WLT ~~approximated its carrying value, which~~ was $46.3 million as of ~~September 30,~~both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. We did not record dividend income on our investment in preferred shares of WLT during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

(c)We determined the estimated fair value of the Senior Unsecured Notes using observed market prices in an open market, ~~with~~which may experience limited trading volume.

(d)We determined the estimated fair value of our non-recourse mortgage loans using a discounted cash flow model that estimates the present value of the future loan payments by discounting such payments at current estimated market interest rates. The estimated market interest rates consider interest rate risk and the value of the underlying collateral, which includes quality of the collateral, the credit quality of the tenant/obligor, and the time until maturity.

We estimated that our other financial assets and liabilities, including amounts outstanding under our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility (Note 10) ~~and our loans receivable,~~, but excluding ~~net investments in direct financing leases,~~finance receivables (Note 5), had fair values that approximated their carrying values at both ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019.~~2020.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis (Including Impairment Charges)

We periodically assess whether there are any indicators that the value of our real estate investments may be impaired or that their carrying value may not be recoverable. There have been no significant changes in our impairment policies from what was disclosed in the ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report.

Impairment charges, and their related triggering events and fair value measurements, recognized during the ~~nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 were as follows (we did not recognize any impairment charges during the~~ three months ended ~~September 30, 2020):~~March 31, 2021 and 2020 were as follows:

Equity Investments in the Managed Programs and Real Estate

The other-than-temporary impairment charges described below are reflected within Equity in losses of equity method investments in the Managed Programs and real estate in our consolidated statements of income.

During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021, we recognized an other-than-temporary impairment charge of $6.8 million on a jointly owned real estate investment to reduce the carrying value of our investment to its estimated fair value, which declined due to changes in expected cash flows from the office facility owned by the investment, related to the existing tenant’s lease expiration in 2028. The fair value measurement was determined by estimating discounted cash flows using three significant unobservable inputs, which are the cash flow discount rate (5.75%), residual discount rate (7.50%), and residual capitalization rate (6.75%).

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recognized other-than-temporary impairment charges of $27.8 million and $19.3 million on our equity investments in CWI 1 and CWI 2, respectively, to reduce the carrying values of our investments to their estimated fair values, due to the ~~ongoing~~adverse effect of the COVID-19 pandemic ~~which had an adverse effect~~ on the operations of CWI 1 and CWI 2. The fair value measurements were estimated based on implied asset value changes and changes in market capitalizations for publicly traded lodging REITs, all of which was obtained from third-party market data. These other-than-temporary impairment charges are reflected within Equity in earnings (losses) of equity method investments in the Managed Programs and real estate in our consolidated statements of income.

Land, Buildings and Improvements and Intangibles

The impairment charges described below are reflected within Impairment charges in our consolidated statements of income.

During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2020, we recognized impairment charges totaling $16.0 million on 2 properties leased to the same tenant in order to reduce the carrying values of the properties to their estimated fair values, due to potential property vacancies. The fair value measurements for the properties were determined byusing a direct capitalization rate ~~analysis.~~analysis based on the probability of vacancy versus the tenant continuing in the lease; the capitalization rate for the various scenarios ranged from 6% to 11%.

In addition, we recognized an impairment charge of $3.4 million on a property in order to reduce the carrying value of the property to its estimated fair value. The fair value measurement for this property approximated its estimated selling price; it was sold in September 2020.

~~Net Investments in Direct Financing Leases~~

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized impairment charges totaling $25.8 million on a portfolio of 4 properties accounted for as Net investments in direct financing leases, based on the cash flows expected to be derived from the underlying assets (discounted at the rate implicit in the lease), in accordance with ASC 310, W.

Note 9. Risk Management and Use of Derivative Financial Instruments

Risk Management

In the normal course of our ongoing business operations, we encounter economic risk. There are four main components of economic risk that impact us: interest rate risk, credit risk, market risk, and foreign currency risk. We are primarily subject to interest rate risk on our interest-bearing liabilities, including our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility ~~and Senior Unsecured Notes~~ (Note 10). and unhedged variable-rate non-recourse mortgage loans. Credit risk is the risk of default on our operations and our tenants’ inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Market risk includes changes in the value of our properties and related loans, ~~as well as changes in the value of our~~Senior Unsecured Notes, other securities, and the shares or limited partnership units we hold in the Managed Programs, due to changes in interest rates or other market factors. We own investments in North America, Europe, and Japan and are subject to risks associated with fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates.

Interest Rate Swaps and Caps

We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through our borrowing activities. To limit this exposure, we generally seek long-term debt financing on a fixed-rate basis. However, from time to time, we or our investment partners have obtained, and may in the future obtain, variable-rate, non-recourse mortgage loans and, as a result, we have entered into, and may continue to enter into, interest rate swap agreements or interest rate cap agreements with counterparties. Interest rate swaps, which effectively convert the variable-rate debt service obligations of a loan to a fixed rate, are agreements in which one party exchanges a stream of interest payments for a counterparty’s stream of cash flow over a specific period. The notional, or face, amount on which the swaps are based is not exchanged. Interest rate caps limit the effective borrowing rate of variable-rate debt obligations while allowing participants to share in downward shifts in interest rates. Our objective in using these derivatives is to limit our exposure to interest rate movements.

The interest rate swaps and caps that our consolidated subsidiaries had outstanding at ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 are summarized as follows (currency in thousands):

Foreign Currency Collars

We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate movements, primarily in the euro and, to a lesser extent, the British pound sterling, the Danish krone, the Norwegian krone, and certain other currencies. In order to hedge certain of our foreign currency cash flow exposures, we enter into foreign currency collars. A foreign currency collar consists of a written call option and a purchased put option to sell the foreign currency at a range of predetermined exchange rates. A foreign currency collar guarantees that the exchange rate of the currency will not fluctuate beyond the range of the options’ strike prices. Our foreign currency collars have maturities of 62 months or less.

The following table presents the foreign currency collars that we had outstanding at ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 (currency in thousands):


Foreign Currency Derivatives	Foreign Currency Derivatives	Number of Instruments	Notional Amount		Fair Value at September 30, 2020		Foreign Currency Derivatives	Number of Instruments	Notional Amount		Fair Value at March 31, 2021

Credit Risk-Related Contingent Features

We measure our credit exposure on a counterparty basis as the net positive aggregate estimated fair value of our derivatives, net of any collateral received. NaN collateral was received as of ~~September 30, 2020.~~March 31, 2021. At ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, our total credit exposure and the maximum exposure to any single counterparty was ~~$8.1~~$6.7 million and ~~$2.9~~$2.4 million, respectively.

W. P. Carey 3/31/2021 10-Q– 26

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Some of the agreements we have with our derivative counterparties contain cross-default provisions that could trigger a declaration of default on our derivative obligations if we default, or are capable of being declared in default, on certain of our indebtedness. At ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we had not been declared in default on any of our derivative obligations. The estimated fair value of our derivatives in a net liability position was ~~$14.4~~$7.2 million and ~~$9.6~~$25.1 million at ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively, which included accrued interest and any nonperformance risk adjustments. If we had breached any of these provisions at ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 or December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, we could have been required to settle our obligations under these agreements at their aggregate termination value of ~~$14.8~~$7.3 million and ~~$9.9~~$25.6 million, respectively.

Net Investment Hedges

We have completed 56 offerings of euro-denominated senior notes, ~~each~~5 with a principal amount of €500.0 million, which we refer to as the 2.0% Senior Notes due 2023, 2.25% Senior Notes due 2024, 2.250% Senior Notes due 2026, 2.125% Senior Notes due 2027, and ~~1.350%~~1.35% Senior Notes due 2028, and one with a principal amount of €525.0 million, which we refer to as the 0.950% Senior Notes due 2030. We redeemed the 2.0% Senior Notes due 2023 in March 2021 using the proceeds from the 0.950% Senior Notes due 2030 (Note 10). In addition, at ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, the amount borrowed in Japanese yen outstanding under our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility was ¥2.4 billion (Note 10) ~~was ¥2.4 billion.~~. Also, at ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, the amounts borrowed in British pound sterling and euro outstanding under our Unsecured Term Loans (Note 10) were £150.0 million and €96.5 million, respectively. These borrowings are designated as, and are effective as, economic hedges of our net investments in foreign entities.

Exchange rate variations impact our financial results because the financial results of our foreign subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars each period, with the effect of exchange rate variations being recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss) as part of the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment. As a result, changes in the value of our borrowings under our euro-denominated senior notes and changes in the value of our euro, Japanese yen, and British pound sterling borrowings under our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility, related to changes in the spot rates, will be reported in the same manner as foreign currency translation adjustments, which are recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss) as part of the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment.

Senior Unsecured Credit Facility

On February 20, 2020, we ~~amended~~entered into the Fourth Amended and ~~restated our senior unsecured credit facility to increase its~~Restated Credit Facility, which has capacity ~~from approximately $1.85 billion to~~of approximately $2.1 billion, comprised of (i) a $1.8 billion unsecured revolving credit facility for our working capital needs, acquisitions, and other general corporate purposes (our “Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility”), (ii) a £150.0 million term loan (our “Term Loan”), and (iii) a €96.5 million delayed draw term loan (our “Delayed Draw Term Loan”). We refer to our Term Loan and Delayed Draw Term Loan collectively as the “Unsecured Term Loans” and the entire facility collectively as our “Senior Unsecured Credit Facility.”

The Senior Unsecured Credit Facility includes the ability to borrow in certain currencies other than U.S. dollars and has a maturity date of February 20, 2025. The aggregate principal amount (of revolving and term loans) available under the Senior Unsecured Credit Facility may be increased up to an amount not to exceed the U.S. dollar equivalent of $2.75 billion, subject to the conditions to increase set forth in our credit agreement. In connection with the amendment and restatement our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility, we capitalized deferred financing costs totaling $10.0 million, which are being amortized to Interest expense over the remaining term of the Senior Unsecured Credit Facility.

~~On February 20,~~As of both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we ~~drew~~have drawn down our Unsecured Term ~~Loan~~Loans in ~~full by borrowing £150.0 million (equivalent to $193.1 million). On March 27, 2020, we drew down our Delayed Draw Term Loan in full by borrowing €96.5 million (equivalent to $105.9 million).~~full.

At ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility had available capacity of approximately ~~$1.6~~$1.8 billion (net of amounts reserved for standby letters of credit totaling $20.1 million). We incur an annual facility fee of 0.20% of the total commitment on our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, which is included within Interest expense in our consolidated statements of income.

(a)The grant date fair value of RSAs and RSUs reflect our stock price on the date of grant on a ~~one-for-one~~1-for-one basis. The grant date fair value of PSUs was determined utilizing (i) a Monte Carlo simulation model to generate an estimate of our future stock price over the three-year performance period and (ii) future financial performance projections. To estimate the fair value of PSUs granted during the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we used a risk-free interest rate of ~~1.6%~~0.2%, an expected volatility rate of ~~15.2%~~36.7%, and assumed a dividend yield of 0.

(b)The grant date fair value of shares vested during the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 was ~~$23.7~~$20.0 million. Employees have the option to take immediate delivery of the shares upon vesting or defer receipt to a future date pursuant to previously made deferral elections. At ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, we had an obligation to issue ~~986,859~~1,104,080 and ~~893,713~~986,859 shares, respectively, of our common stock underlying such deferred awards, which is recorded within Total stockholders’ equity as a Deferred compensation obligation of ~~$42.0~~$49.8 million and ~~$37.3~~$42.0 million, respectively.

(c)Vesting and payment of the PSUs is conditioned upon certain company and/or market performance goals being met during the relevant three-year performance period. The ultimate number of PSUs to be vested will depend on the extent to which the performance goals are met and can range from 0 to 3 times the original awards.

Earnings Per Share

Under current authoritative guidance for determining earnings per share, all nonvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends are considered to be participating securities and therefore are included in the computation of earnings per share under the two-class method. The two-class method is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common shares and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. During the prior year period, certain of our nonvested RSUs contained rights to receive non-forfeitable dividend equivalents or dividends, respectively, and therefore we apply the two-class method of computing earnings per share. The calculation of earnings per share below excludes the income attributable to the nonvested participating RSUs from the numerator and such nonvested shares in the denominator. The following table summarizes basic and diluted earnings ~~(in thousands, except share amounts)~~(dollars in thousands):

ATM Program

Our ATM Program is discussed in the 2020 Annual Report. During the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021, we issued 2,020,115 shares of our common stock under our ATM Program at a weighted-average price of $70.26 per share for net proceeds of $140.2 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we did 0t issue any shares of our common stock under our ATM Program, which is discussed in the 2019 Annual Report. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we issued 1,502,572 and 6,672,412 shares, respectively, of our common stock under our former ATM Program at a weighted-average price of $88.76 and $79.70 per share, respectively, for net proceeds of $131.4 million and $523.5 million, respectively.Program. As of ~~September 30, 2020, $616.6~~March 31, 2021, $474.5 million remained available for issuance under our ~~current~~ ATM Program.

~~Forward Equity Offering~~

~~On June 17, 2020,~~ In April 2021, we entered into an underwriting agreement, as well as certain forward sale agreements, with a syndicate of banks acting as underwriters, forward sellers, and/or forward purchasers in connection with an underwritten public offering of 4,750,000 shares of common stock at an initial forward sale price of $68.35 per share. The underwriters were granted a 30-day option to purchase up to anissued additional 712,500 shares of common stock at the initial forward sale price, which they fully exercised on June 18, 2020. Therefore, at closing on June 22, 2020, the forward purchasers borrowed from third parties and sold to the underwriters an aggregate of 5,462,500 shares of common stock, which the underwriters sold at a gross offering price of $70.00 per share, for gross proceeds of approximately $382.4 million. As a result of this forward construct, we did not receive any proceeds from the sale of such shares at closing.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, we settled a portion of the equity forwards by physically delivering 1,488,291 and 2,951,791 shares, respectively, of common stock to certain forward purchasers for net proceeds of $99.8 million and $199.7 million, respectively, which were primarily used to partially pay down amounts outstanding under our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility and for general corporate purposes. As of September 30, 2020, 2,510,709 shares remained outstanding under the forward sale agreements. We expect to settle the forward sale agreements in full within 18 months of the offering date via physical delivery of the outstanding shares of common stock in exchange for cash proceeds, although we may elect cash settlement or net share settlement for all or a portion of our obligations under the forward sale agreements, subject to certain conditions. The forward sale price that we will receive upon physical settlement of the agreements will be (i) subject to adjustment on a daily basis based on a floating interest rate factor equal to a specified daily rate less a spread (i.e., if the specified daily rate is less than the spread on any day, the interest rate factor will result in a daily reduction of the applicable forward sale price) and (ii) decreased based on amounts related to expected dividends on shares of our common stock ~~during the term of the forward sale agreements.~~under our ATM Program (Note 16).

Note 13. Income Taxes

We elected to be treated as a REIT and believe that we have been organized and have operated in such a manner to maintain our qualification as a REIT for federal and state income tax purposes. As a REIT, we are generally not subject to corporate level federal income taxes on earnings distributed to our stockholders. Since inception, we have distributed at least 100% of our taxable income ~~annually and intend to do so for the tax year ending December 31, 2020.~~annually. Accordingly, we have not included any provisions for federal income taxes related to the REIT in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and ~~2019.~~

In light of the COVID-19 outbreak during the first quarter of 2020, we are monitoring domestic and international tax considerations and the potential impact on our consolidated financial statements. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) (U.S. federal legislation enacted on March 27, 2020 in response to COVID-19) provides that net operating losses incurred in 2018, 2019, or 2020 may be carried back to offset taxable income earned during the five-year period prior to the year in which the net operating loss was incurred. As a result, we recognized a $4.7 million current tax

~~benefit during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 by carrying back certain net operating losses, which is included within current tax benefit described below.~~2020.

Certain of our subsidiaries have elected TRS status. A TRS may provide certain services considered impermissible for REITs and may hold assets that REITs may not hold directly. We also own real property in jurisdictions outside the United States through foreign subsidiaries and are subject to income taxes on our pre-tax income earned from properties in such countries. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include an interim tax provision for our TRSs and foreign subsidiaries, as necessary, for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and ~~2019.~~2020. Current income tax ~~expense~~(expense) benefit was ~~$8.9~~$(8.4) million and ~~$5.2~~$0.2 million for the three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 and 2020, ~~and 2019, respectively, and $19.3 million and $8.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019,~~ respectively. ~~Provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 included a current tax benefit of approximately $6.3 million due to a change in tax position for state and local taxes.~~

~~Our TRSs and foreign subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal, state, and foreign income taxes. As such,~~There have been no significant changes in our deferred tax assets and liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities at the enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is provided if we believe that it is more likely than not that we will not realize the tax benefit of deferred tax assets based on available evidence at the time the determination is made. A change in circumstances may cause us to change our judgment about whether the tax benefit of a deferred tax asset will more likely than not be realized. We generally report any changepolicies from what was disclosed in the valuation allowance through our income statement in the period in which such changes in circumstances occur. The majority of our deferred tax assets relate to the timing difference between the financial reporting basis and tax basis for stock-based compensation expense. The majority of our deferred tax liabilities relate to differences between the tax basis and financial reporting basis of the assets acquired in acquisitions in which the tax basis of such assets was not stepped up to fair value for income tax purposes.2020 Annual Report. Deferred income tax benefit was ~~$2.9~~$2.6 million and ~~$1.0~~$41.5 million for the three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 and 2020, ~~and 2019, respectively, and $47.4 million and $3.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019,~~ respectively. Benefit from income taxes for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2020 included a deferred tax benefit of $37.2 million as a result of the release of a deferred tax liability relating to our investment in shares of ~~a cold storage operator~~Lineage Logistics (Note 8), which converted to a REIT during the ~~current year~~ period and is therefore no longer subject to federal and state income taxes, as well as a deferred tax benefit of $6.5 million as a result of the other-than-temporary impairment charges that we recognized on our equity investments in CWI 1 and CWI 2 during the period (Note 8). As a result of the U.S. federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), which was enacted on March 27, 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we recognized a $7.2 million current tax benefit during the three months ended March 31, 2020 by carrying back certain net operating losses, which is included within current tax benefit described above.

Note 14. Property Dispositions

We have an active capital recycling program, with a goal of extending the average lease term through reinvestment, improving portfolio credit quality through dispositions and acquisitions of assets, increasing the asset criticality factor in our portfolio, and/or executing strategic dispositions of assets. We may ~~make a decision~~decide to dispose of a property when it is vacant as a result of tenants vacating space, tenants electing not to renew their leases, tenant insolvency, or lease rejection in the bankruptcy process. In such cases, we assess whether we can obtain the highest value from the property by selling it, as opposed to re-leasing it. We may also sell a property when we receive an unsolicited offer or negotiate a price for an investment that is consistent with our strategy for that investment. When it is appropriate to do so, we classify the property as an asset held for sale on our consolidated balance sheet. All property dispositions are recorded within our Real Estate segment.

~~2020~~2021 — During the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we sold ~~4 and 8~~2 properties ~~respectively,~~ for total proceeds, net of selling costs, of ~~$62.9~~$13.4 million and ~~$168.0~~recognized a net gain on these sales totaling $9.4 million (inclusive of income taxes totaling less than $0.1 million recognized upon sale). In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2021, we received gross proceeds of $74.6 million in connection with the sale of a 7-property international portfolio that closed in April 2021 (Note 16).

2020 — During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we sold 4 properties for total proceeds, net of selling costs, of $105.2 million (inclusive of $4.7 million attributable to a noncontrolling interest), ~~respectively,~~ and recognized a net gain on these sales totaling ~~$20.9 million and $32.7~~$11.8 million (inclusive of $0.6 million attributable to a noncontrolling ~~interest), respectively (inclusive of~~interest and income taxes totaling ~~$3.1~~less than $0.1 million ~~and $3.0 million, respectively,~~ recognized upon sale). Disposition activity included the sale of 1 of our 2 hotel operating properties in January 2020 for total proceeds, net of selling costs, of $103.5 million (inclusive of $4.7 million attributable to a noncontrolling interest)~~, which was held for sale as of December 31, 2019 (Note 4~~).

~~2019 —~~ During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, we sold 4 and 9 properties, respectively, for total proceeds, net of selling costs, of $13.9 million and $26.5 million, respectively, and recognized a net gain on these sales totaling $0.1 million and $0.7 million, respectively (inclusive of income taxes totaling $0.2 million for both periods recognized upon sale).

~~In addition, in June 2019, a loan receivable was repaid in full to us for $9.3 million, which resulted in a net loss of $0.1 million.~~

~~Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)~~

(a)Operating property revenues from our hotels include (i) ~~$0.6~~$0.7 million and ~~$3.9~~$2.7 million for the three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2021 and 2020, ~~and 2019, respectively, and $3.4 million and $11.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019,~~ respectively, generated from a hotel in Bloomington, Minnesota (revenues decreased due to the adverse effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the hotel’s operations), and (ii) ~~$3.5~~$1.9 million for the three months ended ~~September 30, 2019, and $1.9 million and $10.1 million for the nine months ended September 30,~~March 31, 2020, ~~and 2019, respectively,~~ generated from a hotel in Miami, Florida, which was sold in January 2020 (Note 14).

W. P. Carey 3/31/2021 10-Q– 35

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(b)Beginning with the second quarter of 2020, general and administrative expenses attributed to our Investment Management segment are comprised of the incremental costs of providing services to the Managed Programs, which are fully reimbursed by those funds (resulting in no net expense for us). All other general and administrative expenses are attributed to our Real Estate segment. Previously, general and administrative expenses were allocated based on time incurred by our personnel for the Real Estate and Investment Management segments. In addition, beginning with the second quarter of 2020, stock-based compensation expense and corporate depreciation and amortization expense are fully recognized within our Real Estate segment. In light of the termination of the advisory agreements with CWI 1 and CWI 2 in connection with the WLT management internalization (Note 3), we now view essentially all assets, liabilities, and operational expenses as part of our Real Estate segment, other than incremental activities that are expected to wind down as we manage CPA:18 – Global and CESH through the end of their respective life cycles (Note 2). These changes ~~within~~between the segments had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.

~~(c)~~Following the WLT management internalization and redemption of the special general partner interests in CWI 1 and CWI 2 on April 13, 2020, we no longer own equity investments in those funds, which were previously included within our Investment Management segment (~~Note 2~~, ~~Note 3~~, ~~Note 7). Our investment in shares of common stock of WLT is included within our Real Estate segment (as an equity method investment in real estate) (Note 7~~). In addition, we allocated $34.3 million of goodwill within our Investment Management segment during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, since the WLT management internalization resulted in a sale of a portion of our Investment Management business (~~Note 3~~, ~~Note 6~~).

Note 16. Subsequent Events

~~Issuance of Senior Unsecured Notes~~

~~On October 14, 2020, we completed an underwritten public offering of $500.0 million of 2.400% Senior Notes due 2031, at a price of 99.099% of par value. These 2.400% Senior Notes due 2031 have a~~ ~~10.3-year~~ ~~term and are scheduled to mature on February 1, 2031.~~

Acquisitions

In ~~October 2020,~~April 2021, we completed ~~three investments for a total purchase price of~~3 acquisitions totaling approximately ~~$186.8 million,~~$186.1 million. They are as follows:

•~~a 3-property industrial portfolio~~$119.3 million for 3 hypermarket retail facilities in ~~Winter Haven, Florida; Belvidere, Illinois; and Fayetteville, North Carolina, with a lease term of 20 years for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $51.0 million on October 12, 2020;~~

•~~a 27-property grocery store portfolio in Spain with a lease term of 20 years for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $101.8 million~~France (based on the exchange rate of the euro on the date of acquisition) ~~on October 30, 2020;~~;

•$52.8 million for a logistics facility in Detroit, Michigan; and

•$14.0 million for a food ~~manufacturing/headquarters~~production facility in ~~Little Canada, Minnesota, with a lease term of 20 years for approximately $34.0 million on October 30, 2020.~~Searcy, Arkansas.

It is not practicable to disclose the preliminary purchase price allocations for these transactions given the short period of time ~~period~~ between the acquisition dates and the filing of this Report.

~~Investment in Shares of a Cold Storage Operator~~Dispositions

In ~~October 2020, we purchased additional shares of a cold storage operator for $95.5 million. This increased the carrying value of our investment to approximately $290 million (Note 8~~).

~~Dispositions~~

~~In October 2020, we sold 2 cold storage properties in Rincon and Unadilla, Georgia, for gross proceeds totaling $95.5 million. The buyer was the cold storage operator noted directly above.~~

~~In addition, in October 2020,~~April 2021, we sold a ~~retail facility in Rockport, Texas,~~7-property international portfolio for gross proceeds of ~~$5.2 million. This property~~$74.6 million (based on the exchange rate of the euro on the date cash was received). NaN of these properties were classified as held for sale as of ~~September 30, 2020.~~March 31, 2021 (Note 4). In addition, in April 2021, we sold a domestic property for gross proceeds of $4.8 million.

Issuance of Common Stock under our ATM Program

In April 2021, we issued 443,460 shares of our common stock under our ATM Program at a weighted-average price of $71.67 per share for net proceeds of approximately $31 million (Note 12).

Dividend from our Investment in Preferred Shares of WLT

In April 2021, we received a $3.3 million cash dividend from our investment in preferred shares of WLT, reflecting amounts due for the prior four quarters.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to assist in understanding our financial statements and the reasons for changes in certain key components of our financial statements from period to period. This item also provides our perspective on our financial position and liquidity, as well as certain other factors that may affect our future results. The discussion also breaks down the financial results of our business by segment to provide a better understanding of how these segments and their results affect our financial condition and results of operations. Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report and subsequent reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of ~~1934.~~

~~Business Overview~~

~~As described in more detail in~~1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Refer to Item 1 of the ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report ~~we are~~for a ~~diversified net lease REIT with a portfolio~~description of operationally-critical, commercial real estate that includes 1,215 net lease properties covering approximately 142 million square feet and 20 operating properties as of September 30, 2020. We invest in high-quality single tenant industrial, warehouse, office, retail, and self-storage properties subject to long-term net leases with built-in rent escalators. Our portfolio is located primarily in the United States and Northern and Western Europe, and we believe it is well-diversified by tenant, property type, geographic location, and tenant industry.

~~We also earn fees and other income by managing the portfolios of the Managed Programs through~~ our ~~investment management~~ business. ~~We no longer raise capital for new or existing funds, but currently expect to continue managing CPA:18 – Global and CESH through the end of their respective life cycles (Note 1~~, ~~Note 3~~).

Significant Developments

~~Issuance of Senior Unsecured Notes~~

On October 14, 2020, we completed an underwritten public offering of $500.0 million of 2.400% Senior Notes due 2031, at a price of 99.099% of par value. These 2.400% Senior Notes due 2031 have a 10.3-year term and are scheduled to mature on February 1, 2031. We intend to use the net proceeds from the issuance of these 2.400% Senior Notes due 2031 to repay certain indebtedness, including amounts outstanding under our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility (which was used in part to repay secured mortgage debt outstanding), to fund potential future acquisitions, and for general corporate purposes (~~Note 16~~).

~~Board of Directors Change~~

~~On September 18, 2020, we announced that Ms. Tonit M. Calaway, age 52, was appointed to our Board. Please see our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on September 18, 2020 for additional information.~~

COVID-19

We are closely monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business, including the safety and health of our employees, our portfolio, and tenant credit health (including our tenants’ ability to pay rent), as well as our liquidity, capital allocation, and balance sheet management.

~~One of our core principles is our proactive approach to asset management. As such, we~~ continue to actively engage in discussions with our tenants regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their business operations, liquidity, and financial position. Through the date of this Report, we received from tenants approximately 98% of contractual base rent that was due during the ~~third~~first quarter of ~~2020~~2021 (based on contractual minimum annualized base rent (“ABR”) as of ~~June 30,~~December 31, 2020) ~~and approximately 99% of contractual base rent that was due in October (based on ABR as of September 30, 2020)~~.

Given the ~~significant~~ongoing uncertainty around the duration and severity of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are unable to predict the impact it will have on our tenants’ continued ability to pay rent. Therefore, information provided in this Report regarding recent rent collections should not serve as an indication of expected future rent collections.

~~Please see~~ ~~Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors~~ ~~in this Report for information about the global COVID-19 pandemic.~~

~~W. P. Carey 9/30/2020 10-Q~~– 44

As of September 30, 2020, we had $152.2 million of cash and cash equivalents, approximately $1.6 billion of available capacity under our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility (net of amounts reserved for standby letters of credit totaling $20.1 million), and available proceeds under our forward sale agreements of approximately $166.1 million (based on 2,510,709 remaining shares outstanding and a net offering price of $66.14 as of that date). Our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility, which we amended and restated on February 20, 2020, includes a $1.8 billion Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility and Unsecured Term Loans outstanding totaling $304.2 million as of September 30, 2020 (~~Note 10~~), and is scheduled to mature on February 20, 2025. As of September 30, 2020, scheduled debt principal payments total $28.7 million through December 31, 2020 and $172.8 million through December 31, 2021, and our Senior Unsecured Notes do not start to mature until January 2023 (~~Note 10~~).

~~The potential impact of COVID-19 on our tenants and properties could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, and prospects.~~

Financial Highlights

During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we completed the following (as further described in the consolidated financial statements):

Real Estate

Investments

•We acquired ~~seven~~three investments totaling ~~$354.6~~$149.3 million (Note 4).

•We completed ~~four~~two construction projects at a cost totaling ~~$168.1~~$55.1 million (Note 4).

•We committed to purchase a food production facility in Lawrence, Kansas, for approximately $27.3 million upon completion of construction of the property, which is expected to take place during the fourth quarter of 2021 (Note 4).

•We committed to fund a build-to-suit project for a research center in Wageningen, the Netherlands, for an aggregate amount of $29.5 million (based on the exchange rate of the euro at March 31, 2021). We currently expect to complete the project in the first quarter of 2022 (Note 4).

Dispositions

•As part of our active capital recycling program, we disposed of ~~eight~~two properties for total proceeds, net of selling costs, of ~~$168.0~~$13.4 million (inclusive of $4.7 million attributable to a noncontrolling interest). Disposition activity included the sale of one of our two hotel operating properties in January 2020 for total proceeds, net of selling costs, of $103.5 million (inclusive of $4.7 million attributable to a noncontrolling interest) (Note 14). In April 2021, we sold a seven-property international portfolio for gross proceeds of $74.6 million (proceeds were received during the three months ended March 31, 2021) (Note 14, Note 16).

W. P. Carey ~~9/30/2020~~3/31/2021 10-Q – 4537

Financing and Capital Markets Transactions

•On February ~~20, 2020,~~25, 2021, we ~~amended~~completed an underwritten public offering of $425.0 million of 2.250% Senior Notes due 2033, at a price of 98.722% of par value. These 2.250% Senior Notes due 2033 have a 12.1-year term and ~~restated our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility~~are scheduled to ~~increase its capacity~~mature on April 1, 2033. We used the net proceeds from this offering to ~~$2.1 billion, which is comprised~~prepay a total of ~~a $1.8 billion Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, a £150.0~~$425.2 million Term Loan, and a €96.5 million Delayed Draw Term Loan, all maturing in five years. On that date, we drew down our Term Loan in full by borrowing £150.0 million (equivalent to $193.1 million). On March 27, 2020, we drew down our Delayed Draw Term Loan in full by borrowing €96.5 million (equivalent to $105.9of non-recourse mortgage loans (including prepayment penalties totaling $31.8 million) (Note 10).

•On ~~June 17, 2020,~~March 8, 2021, we ~~entered into an underwriting agreement, as well as certain forward sale agreements, with a syndicate of banks acting as underwriters, forward sellers, and/or forward purchasers in connection with~~completed an underwritten public offering of ~~4,750,000~~€525.0 million of 0.950% Senior Notes due 2030, at a price of 99.335% of par value, issued by our wholly owned finance subsidiary, WPC Eurobond B.V., and fully and unconditionally guaranteed by us. These 0.950% Senior Notes due 2030 have a 9.2-year term and are scheduled to mature on June 1, 2030. We used the net proceeds from this offering to redeem the €500.0 million of 2.0% Senior Notes due 2023, for which we paid a “make-whole” amount of $26.2 million (based on the exchange rate of the euro as of the date of redemption) (Note 10).

•We issued 2,020,115 shares of our common stock under our ATM Program at ~~an initial forward sale~~a weighted-average price of ~~$68.35~~$70.26 per share. The underwriters were granted a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 712,500 shares of common stock at the initial forward sale price, which they fully exercised on June 18, 2020. Therefore, at closing on June 22, 2020, the forward purchasers borrowed from third parties and sold to the underwriters an aggregate of 5,462,500 shares of common stock, which the underwriters sold at a gross offering price of $70.00 per share for gross proceeds of approximately $382.4 million. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, we settled a portion of the equity forwards by physically delivering 1,488,291 and 2,951,791 shares, respectively, of common stock to certain forward purchasers for net proceeds of ~~$99.8~~$140.2 million ~~and $199.7 million, respectively, which~~(Note 12). Proceeds from issuances of common stock under our ATM Program during the three months ended March 31, 2021 were used primarily ~~used~~ to partially pay down the amounts then outstanding under our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility and for general corporate purposes. As of September 30, 2020, 2,510,709 shares remained outstanding under the forward sale agreements. We expect to settle the forward sale agreements in full within 18 months of the offering date via physical delivery of the outstanding shares of common stock in exchange for cash proceeds, although we may elect cash settlement or net share settlement for all or a portion of our obligations under the forward sale agreements, subject to certain conditions (~~Note 12~~).

•~~We reduced our mortgage debt outstanding by repaying at or close to maturity a total of $202.5 million of non-recourse mortgage loans with a weighted-average interest rate of 5.0% (Note 1~~0).

Investment Management

~~CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger~~

~~On April 13, 2020, the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger closed (Note 3~~).

•In connection with the termination of our advisory agreements with CWI 1 and CWI 2, the operating partnerships of each of CWI 1 and CWI 2 redeemed the special general partner interests that we previously held, for which we received 1,300,000 shares of CWI 2 preferred stock with a fair value of $46.3 million and 2,840,549 shares in CWI 2 Class A common stock with a fair value of $11.6 million; in connection with this redemption, we recognized a non-cash net gain on sale of $33.0 million, which was included within Equity in earnings (losses) of equity method investments in the Managed Programs and real estate in the consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The carrying value of our investment in WLT preferred stock (formerly CWI 2 preferred stock) was $46.3 million as of September 30, 2020, and is included within Other assets, net on our consolidated balance sheets as available-for-sale debt securities (~~Note 8~~).

•We exchanged our 6,074,046 shares of CWI 1 common stock for 5,531,025 shares of CWI 2 Class A common stock, based on the exchange ratio set forth in the merger agreement. In addition, prior to the closing of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger, we owned 3,836,669 shares of CWI 2 Class A common stock. Together with the 2,840,549 shares in CWI 2 Class A common stock received (as described above), following the closing of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger (and CWI 2 being renamed WLT), we own 12,208,243 shares of WLT Class A common stock, which we account for as an equity method investment and which had a carrying value of $48.4 million as of September 30, 2020 (~~Note 7). The aggregate carrying value of our investments in preferred shares and shares of common stock of WLT totaled approximately $94.7 million as of September 30, 2020.~~

Assets Under Management

•As of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we managed total assets of approximately ~~$2.8~~$2.9 billion on behalf of CPA:18 – Global and CESH. We expect that the vast majority of our Investment Management earnings ~~going forward~~ will continue to be generated from asset management fees and our ownership interests in CPA:18 – Global and CESH.

Dividends to Stockholders

In March 2021, we declared cash dividends totaling $1.048 per share (Note 12).

W. P. Carey ~~9/30/2020~~3/31/2021 10-Q – 4638

~~Dividends to Stockholders~~

~~We declared cash dividends totaling $3.126 per share during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, comprised of three quarterly dividends per share of $1.040, $1.042, and $1.044.~~

(a)We consider Adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”), a supplemental measure that is not defined by GAAP (a “non-GAAP measure”), to be an important measure in the evaluation of our operating performance. See Supplemental Financial Measures below for our definition of this non-GAAP measure and a reconciliation to its most directly comparable GAAP measure.

~~(b)~~Amounts for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 reflect the impact of (i) settling a portion of our equity forwards by physically delivering 1,488,291 and 2,951,791 shares, respectively, of common stock to certain forward purchasers during the current year periods (~~Note 12) and (ii) issuing 6,672,412 shares of our common stock under our current and former ATM Programs during the year ended December 31, 2019 (Note 12~~).

These increases were~~, partially offset by ~~proceeds~~non-cash unrealized gains on, and a cash dividend received from, ~~a bankruptcy claim on a prior tenant received~~our investment in shares of Lineage Logistics recognized during the current year period (Note 8), impairment charges recognized during the prior year ~~periods.~~period (Note 8), and the impact of real estate acquisitions. Net income from Investment Management attributable to W. P. Carey ~~decreased~~increased due to other-than-temporary impairment charges on our equity investments in CWI 1 and CWI 2 during the prior year period (Note 8), partially offset by the cessation of Investment Management revenues ~~and distributions~~ previously earned from CWI 1 and CWI 2 (Note 3). ~~In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we recognized other-than-temporary impairment charges on our equity investments in CWI 1 and CWI 2 (Note 8), partially offset by a non-cash net gain recognized on the redemption of our special general partner interests in CWI 1 and CWI 2 in connection with the WLT management internalization (Note 3~~).

Terms and Definitions

Pro Rata Metrics — The portfolio information above contains certain metrics prepared under the pro rata consolidation method. We refer to these metrics as pro rata metrics. We have a number of investments, usually with our affiliates, in which our economic ownership is less than 100%. Under the full consolidation method, we report 100% of the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses of those investments that are deemed to be under our control or for which we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary, even if our ownership is less than 100%. Also, for all other jointly owned investments, which we do not control, we report our net investment and our net income or loss from that investment. Under the pro rata consolidation method, we present our proportionate share, based on our economic ownership of these jointly owned investments, of the portfolio metrics of those investments. Multiplying each of our jointly owned investments’ financial statement line items by our percentage ownership and adding or subtracting those amounts from our totals, as applicable, may not accurately depict the legal and economic implications of holding an ownership interest of less than 100% in our jointly owned investments.

ABR — ABR represents contractual minimum annualized base rent for our net-leased properties and reflects exchange rates as of ~~September 30, 2020.~~March 31, 2021. If there is a rent abatement, we annualize the first monthly contractual base rent following the free rent period. ABR is not applicable to operating properties.

Results of Operations

We operate in two reportable segments: Real Estate and Investment Management. We evaluate our results of operations with a primary focus on increasing and enhancing the value, quality, and number of properties in our Real Estate segment. We focus our efforts on accretive investing and improving portfolio quality through re-leasing efforts, including negotiation of lease renewals, or selectively selling assets in order to increase value in our real estate portfolio. Through our Investment Management segment, we expect to continue to earn fees and other income from the management of the portfolios of the remaining Managed Programs until those programs reach the end of their respective life cycles. Refer to Note 15 for tables presenting the comparative results of our Real Estate and Investment Management segments.

~~W. P. Carey 9/30/2020 10-Q~~– 55

Property level contribution is a non-GAAP measure that we believe to be a useful supplemental measure for management and investors in evaluating and analyzing the financial results of our net-leased and operating properties included in our Real Estate segment over time. Property level contribution presents our lease and operating property revenues, less property expenses, reimbursable tenant costs, and depreciation and amortization. We believe that Property level contribution allows for meaningful comparison between periods of the direct costs of owning and operating our net-leased assets and operating properties. While we believe that Property level contribution is a useful supplemental measure, it should not be considered as an alternative to Net income from Real Estate attributable to W. P. Carey as an indication of our operating performance.

~~Existing Net-Leased Properties~~Lease Revenues

Existing net-leased properties are those that we acquired or placed into service prior to January 1, ~~2019~~2020 and that were not sold or held for sale during the periods presented. For the periods presented, there were ~~1,126~~1,151 existing net-leased properties, which includes 27 self-storage properties that were reclassified from operating properties to net-leased properties during the year ended December 31, 2019 as a result of entering into net-lease agreements during the second quarter of 2019. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the same periods in 2019, for these 27 properties, lease revenues increased by $0.6 million and $10.2 million, respectively, depreciation and amortization decreased by $5.4 million (due to the in-place lease intangible assets recorded on certain of these 27 properties becoming fully amortized during 2020) and increased by $4.2 million, respectively, and property expenses decreased by less than $0.1 million and increased by $0.4 million, respectively, within properties.~~Existing Net-Leased Properties~~.

In addition to the increases in lease revenues due to the reclassification of 27 self-storage properties from operating properties to net-leased properties, described above, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the same periods in 2019, lease revenues from existing net-leased properties increased by $1.9 million and $7.3 million, respectively, related to scheduled rent increases and by $1.5 million and $4.2 million, respectively, due to new leases. Additionally, for the three months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019, lease revenues from existing net-leased properties increased by $4.6 million as a result of the strengthening of foreign currencies (primarily the euro) in relation to the U.S. dollar between the periods. These increases were partially offset by decreases of $5.4 million and $13.8 million, respectively, due to rents not collected as a result of COVID-19 (including reimbursable tenant costs).

For the three months ended ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2019, depreciation and amortization expense from existing net-leased properties decreased due to decline from the 27 self-storage properties described above, partially offset by the impact of the strengthening of foreign currencies (primarily the euro) in relation to the U.S. dollar between the periods. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, ~~as compared to the same period in 2019, depreciation and amortization expense~~lease revenues from existing net-leased properties increased due to the ~~impact of completed construction projects on existing properties and the increase from the 27 self-storage properties described above.~~following items (in millions):

~~Recently Acquired Net-Leased Properties~~

W. P. Carey 3/31/2021 10-Q– 46

Recently acquired net-leased properties are those that we acquired or placed into service subsequent to December 31, ~~2018~~2019 and that were not sold or held for sale during the periods presented. Since January 1, ~~2019,~~2020, we acquired 3018 investments, comprised of 5269 properties, and placed ~~three~~two properties into service.

~~Existing Operating Properties~~

~~W. P. Carey 9/30/2020 10-Q~~– 56

~~September 30, 2020 as compared to the same periods in 2019, for our existing hotel operating property, revenues decreased by $3.3 million and $8.1 million, respectively,~~ and expenses decreased by ~~$1.8~~$2.0 million and ~~$4.3~~$1.5 million, respectively, due to the adverse effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on ~~the~~our remaining hotel’s operations.

~~Properties Sold or Held~~ In addition, for ~~Sale~~

~~During~~ the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2020, ~~we disposed of four~~both operating property revenues and ~~eight properties, respectively, including~~expenses from the ~~sale of one of our two~~ hotel ~~operating properties~~sold in January ~~2020. At September 30,~~ 2020 ~~we had two properties classified as held for sale (Note 4), one of which was sold in October 2020 (Note 16). During the year ended December 31, 2019, we disposed of 22 properties, including the repayment of a loan receivable.~~

In addition to the impact on property level contribution related to properties we sold or classified as held for sale during the periods presented, we recognized gains on sale of real estate. The impact of these transactions is described in further detail below and in ~~Note 14~~.were $1.9 million.

~~Other Revenues and~~Operating Expenses

~~Lease Termination Income~~Depreciation and ~~Other~~Amortization

The following table presents depreciation and amortization expense within our Real Estate segment (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2021		2020		Change
Depreciation and Amortization
Net-leased properties	$	108,503	$	113,284	$	(4,781)

Corporate	1,123		304		819
	$	110,322	$	115,207	$	(4,885)

For the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020, depreciation and amortization expense for net-leased properties decreased primarily due to the in-place lease intangible assets recorded on certain net-leased self-storage properties becoming fully amortized during 2020, partially offset by the strengthening of foreign currencies (primarily the euro) in relation to the U.S. dollar between the periods.

~~2020~~ ~~— For~~Beginning with the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, lease termination income and other was $1.6 million and $10.0 million, respectively, primarily comprised of (i) deferred maintenance income of $0.8 million from a former tenant recognized during the thirdsecond quarter of 2020, corporate depreciation and amortization expense is fully recognized within our Real Estate segment, consistent with the segment allocation changes described below under ; General and Administrative(ii) income substantially from a parking garage attached to one of our net-leased properties totaling $0.5 million and $1.7 million, respectively; (iii) income of $4.2 million recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 ~~related to a lease restructuring in May 2019 that led to the recognition of rent receipts during the first and second quarters of 2020 on claims that were previously deemed uncollectible;~~ (iv) interest income from our loans receivable totaling $1.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 (we did not recognize income from our loans receivable during the three months ended September 30, 2020, since such income was deemed uncollectible as a result of COVID-19 (~~Note 2~~, ~~Note 5)); and (v) lease termination income of $0.6 million recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2020.~~

~~2019~~ — For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, lease termination income and other was $14.4 million and $24.0 million, respectively, primarily comprised of (i) income of $8.3 million and $9.1 million, respectively, from receipt of proceeds from a bankruptcy claim on a prior tenant, (ii) income of $3.3 million and $5.5 million, respectively, related to a lease restructuring in May 2019 that led to the recognition of $3.3 million in rent receipts during the third quarter of 2019 on claims that were previously deemed uncollectible, and a related value-added tax refund of $2.2 million that was recognized in May 2019, (iii) interest income from our loans receivable totaling $1.5 million and $5.4 million, respectively, and (iv) income substantially from a parking garage attached to one of our net-leased properties totaling $1.0 million and $2.5 million..

General and Administrative

Beginning with the second quarter of 2020, general and administrative expenses attributed to our Investment Management segment are comprised of the incremental costs of providing services to the Managed Programs, which are fully reimbursed by those funds (resulting in no net expense for us). All other general and administrative expenses are attributed to our Real Estate segment. Previously, general and administrative expenses were allocated based on time incurred by our personnel for the Real Estate and Investment Management segments. In light of the termination of the advisory agreements with CWI 1 and CWI 2 in connection with the WLT management internalization (Note 3), we now view essentially all assets, liabilities, and operational expenses as part of our Real Estate segment, other than incremental activities that are expected to wind down as we manage CPA:18 – Global and CESH through the end of their respective life cycles (Note 2). This change ~~within~~between the segments had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.

W. P. Carey 3/31/2021 10-Q– 47

For the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 as compared to the same ~~periods~~period in ~~2019,~~2020, general and administrative expenses allocated to our Real Estate segment increased by ~~$5.4~~$7.2 million, ~~and $7.6 million, respectively,~~ primarily due to the change in methodology for allocation of expenses between our Real Estate and Investment Management segments discussed ~~above.~~above, as well as higher office expenses due to the commencement of a new office lease in June 2020.

Property Expenses, Excluding Reimbursable Tenant Costs

~~W. P. Carey 9/30/~~For the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020, ~~10-Q~~– 57property expenses, excluding reimbursable tenant costs, increased by $0.8 million, primarily due to tenant vacancies during 2020 and 2021 (which resulted in property expenses no longer being reimbursable).

Stock-based Compensation Expense

Beginning with the second quarter of 2020, stock-based compensation expense is fully recognized within our Real Estate segment. In light of the termination of the advisory agreements with CWI 1 and CWI 2 in connection with the WLT management internalization (Note 3), we believe that this allocation methodology is appropriate, as described above (Note 2). This change ~~within~~between the segments had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.

For the three months ended ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 as compared to the same period in ~~2019,~~2020, stock-based compensation expense allocated to our Real Estate segment increased by ~~$1.1~~$3.4 million, primarily due to a lower projected payout for PSUs determined during the prior year period, as well as the change in methodology for allocation of expenses between our Real Estate and Investment Management segments discussed above.

Impairment Charges

Our impairment charges are more fully described in Note 8.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we recognized impairment charges totaling $16.0 million on two properties leased to the same tenant in order to reduce the carrying values of the properties to their estimated fair values, due to potential property vacancies. In addition, we recognized an impairment charge of $3.4 million on a property in order to reduce the carrying value of the property to its estimated fair value, which approximated its estimated selling price. This property was sold in September 2020.

~~During the three~~Other Income and ~~nine months ended September 30, 2019, we recognized impairment charges totaling $25.8 million on a portfolio of four properties accounted~~Expenses, and Provision for ~~as Net investments in direct financing leases, based on the cash flows expected to be derived from the underlying assets (discounted at the rate implicit in the lease), in accordance with ASC 310,~~ ~~Receivables~~.Income Taxes

Our weighted-average interest rate was 3.0% and 3.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 3.1% and 3.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.(dollars in thousands):

~~Loss on Change in Control of Interests~~

~~During the third quarter of 2019, we identified certain measurement period adjustments that impacted the provisional accounting for an investment we acquired in the CPA:17 Merger (Note 3), in which we had a joint interest~~affiliates and accounted for under the equity method pre-merger. As a result, we recorded a loss on change in control of interests of $8.4 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, reflecting adjustments to the difference between our carrying value and the preliminary estimated fair value of this former equity interest on October 31, 2018 (the date of the CPA:17 Merger).

Investment Management

We earn revenue as the advisor to the Managed Programs. For the periods presented, we acted as advisor to the following Managed Programs: CPA:18 – Global, CWI 1 (through April 13, 2020), CWI 2 (through April 13, 2020), and CESH. The CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger closed on April 13, 2020, and as a result, the advisory agreements with each of CWI 1 and CWI 2 terminated and CWI 2 was renamed Watermark Lodging Trust, Inc., for which we provide certain services pursuant to a transition services agreement (Note 3).

We no longer raise capital for new or existing funds, but we currently expect to continue managing CPA:18 – Global and CESH and earn the various fees described below through the end of their respective life cycles (Note 1, Note 3). As of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we managed total assets of approximately ~~$2.8~~$2.9 billion on behalf of the Managed Programs.

Asset Management and Other Revenue

Asset management and other revenue includes asset management revenue, structuring revenue, and other advisory revenue. During the periods presented, we earned asset management revenue from (i) CPA:18 – Global based on the value of its real estate-related assets under management, (ii) the CWI REITs, prior to the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger (Note 3), based on the value of their lodging-related real estate assets under management, and (iii) CESH based on its gross assets under management at fair value. Asset management revenue may increase or decrease depending upon changes in the Managed Programs’ asset bases as a result of purchases, sales, or changes in the appraised value of the real estate-related and lodging-related assets in their investment portfolios. For ~~2020, (i) we received asset management fees from CPA:18 – Global 50% in cash and 50% in shares of its common stock through March 31, 2020; effective as of April 1, 2020,~~2021, we receive asset management fees from (i) CPA:18 – Global in shares of its common stock, ~~(ii) we primarily received asset management fees from the CWI REITs in shares of their common stock through April 13, 2020 (the date of the CWI 1~~ and ~~CWI 2 Merger), and (iii) we receive asset management fees from~~(ii) CESH in cash.

~~Structuring and Other Advisory Revenue~~

We earn structuring and other advisory revenue when we structure new investments on behalf of the Managed Programs. Since we no longer raise capital for new or existing funds, and we no longer serve as advisor to CWI 1 and CWI 2 (Note 3), structuring and other advisory revenue is expected to be insignificant going forward.

For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2020, structuring and other advisory revenue was primarily comprised of $0.3 million for structuring a mortgage refinancing on behalf of CWI 2 and $0.2 million related to increases in build-to-suit funding commitments for certain CPA:18 – Global investments. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, structuring and other advisory revenue was primarily comprised of $2.3 million for structuring an investment in a new student housing development project on behalf of CPA:18

Operating Expenses

General and Administrative, Stock-based Compensation Expense, and Depreciation and Amortization

Beginning with the second quarter of 2020, general and administrative expenses attributed to our Investment Management segment are comprised of the incremental costs of providing services to the Managed Programs, which are fully reimbursed by those funds (resulting in no net expense for us). All other general and administrative expenses are attributed to our Real Estate segment. Previously, general and administrative expenses were allocated based on time incurred by our personnel for the Real Estate and Investment Management segments. In addition, beginning with the second quarter of 2020, stock-based compensation expense and corporate depreciation and amortization expense are fully recognized within our Real Estate segment. In light of the termination of the advisory agreements with CWI 1 and CWI 2 in connection with the WLT management internalization (Note 3), we now view essentially all assets, liabilities, and operational expenses as part of our Real Estate segment, other than incremental activities that are expected to wind down as we manage CPA:18 – Global and CESH through the end of their respective life cycles (Note 2). These changes ~~within~~between the segments had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.

As discussed in Note 3, certain personnel costs and overhead costs are charged to the remaining Managed Programs and reimbursed to us in accordance with their respective advisory agreements. In addition, following the closing of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger on April 13, 2020, we began recording reimbursements from WLT within our Investment Management segment pursuant to a transition services agreement. As of the date of this Report, all services provided under the transition services agreement have terminated, except for certain information systems and data services.

Subadvisor Fees

Pursuant to the terms of the subadvisory agreements we had with the third-party subadvisors in connection with both CWI 1 and CWI 2, we paid a subadvisory fee equal to 20% of the amount of fees paid to us by CWI 1 and 25% of the amount of fees paid to us by CWI 2, including but not limited to: acquisition fees, asset management fees, loan refinancing fees, property management fees, and subordinated disposition fees, each as defined in the advisory agreements we had with each of CWI 1 and CWI 2. ~~We also paid to each subadvisor 20% and 25% of the net proceeds resulting from any sale, financing, or recapitalization or sale of securities of CWI 1 and CWI 2, respectively, by us, the advisor.~~ Upon completion of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger on April 13, 2020 (Note 3), the subadvisory agreements were terminated, and we no longer pay subadvisory fees.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources and Uses of Cash During the Period

We use the cash flow generated from our investments primarily to meet our operating expenses, service debt, and fund dividends to stockholders. Our cash flows fluctuate periodically due to a number of factors, which may include, among other things: the timing of our equity and debt offerings; the timing of purchases and sales of real estate; the timing of the repayment of mortgage loans and receipt of lease revenues; the timing and amount of other lease-related payments; the timing of settlement of foreign currency transactions; changes in foreign currency exchange rates; the receipt of ~~the~~ asset management fees in either shares of the common stock of ~~the Managed Programs~~CPA:18 – Global or cash; the timing of distributions from equity investments in the Managed Programs and real estate; and the receipt of distributions of Available Cash from CPA:18 – ~~Global; the timing of settlement of foreign currency transactions; and changes in foreign currency exchange rates.~~Global. Despite these fluctuations, we believe that we will generate sufficient cash from operations to meet our normal recurring short-term and long-term liquidity needs. We may also use existing cash resources, available capacity under our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility, proceeds from dispositions of properties, and the issuance of additional debt or equity securities, such as issuances of common stock through our forward sale agreements and ATM Program (Note 12), in order to meet these needs. We assess our ability to access capital on an ongoing basis. Our sources and uses of cash during the period are described below.

Operating Activities — Net cash provided by operating activities ~~decreased~~increased by ~~$20.9~~$8.7 million during the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 as compared to the same period in ~~2019,~~2020, primarily due to the adverse impact of COVID-19 on rent collections, proceeds from a bankruptcy claim on a prior tenant received during the prior year period, and the cessation of distributions of Available Cash from CWI 1 and CWI 2 following the WLT management internalization (~~Note 3), partially offset by a decrease in interest expense,~~ an increase in cash flow generated from net investment activity and scheduled rent increases at existing ~~properties.~~properties, as well as a cash dividend received from our investment in shares of Lineage Logistics during the current year period (Note 8), partially offset by the adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Financing Activities — Our financing activities are generally comprised of borrowings and repayments under our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, issuances of the Senior Unsecured Notes, payments and prepayments of non-recourse mortgage loans, and payments of dividends to stockholders. In addition to these types of transactions, during the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2020, proceeds from drawing down in full our Unsecured Term Loans were $299.0~~March 31, 2021, we redeemed the €500.0 million (~~Note 10).

Cash Resources

At ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, our cash resources consisted of the following:

•cash and cash equivalents totaling ~~$152.2~~$229.2 million. Of this amount, ~~$80.1~~$109.6 million, at then-current exchange rates, was held in foreign subsidiaries, and we could be subject to restrictions or significant costs should we decide to repatriate these amounts;

•our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, with available capacity of approximately ~~$1.6~~$1.8 billion (net of amounts reserved for standby letters of credit totaling $20.1 million);

•available proceeds under our forward sale agreements of approximately ~~$166.1~~$160.3 million (based on 2,510,709 remaining shares outstanding and a net offering price of ~~$66.14~~$63.86 as of ~~September 30, 2020)~~March 31, 2021); and

•unleveraged properties that had an aggregate asset carrying value of ~~$9.5~~approximately $10.9 billion at ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, although there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain financing for these properties.

In April 2021, we issued 443,460 shares of our common stock under our ATM Program at a weighted-average price of $71.67 per share for net proceeds of approximately $31 million (Note 16).

Our cash resources can be used for working capital needs and other commitments and may be used for future investments.

Cash Requirements and Liquidity

As of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we had ~~$152.2~~$229.2 million of cash and cash equivalents, approximately ~~$1.6~~$1.8 billion of available capacity under our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility (net of amounts reserved for standby letters of credit totaling $20.1 million), and available proceeds under our forward sale agreements of approximately ~~$166.1~~$160.3 million (based on 2,510,709 remaining shares outstanding and a net offering price of ~~$66.14~~$63.86 as of that date). Our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility ~~which we amended and restated on February 20, 2020,~~ includes a $1.8 billion Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility and Unsecured Term Loans outstanding totaling ~~$304.2~~$318.4 million as of ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 (Note 10), and is scheduled to mature on February 20, 2025. As of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, scheduled debt principal payments total ~~$28.7~~$42.9 million through December 31, ~~2020~~2021 and ~~$172.8~~$355.8 million through December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, and our Senior Unsecured Notes do not start to mature until ~~January 2023~~April 2024 (Note 10).

During the next 12 months following ~~the date of this Report,~~March 31, 2021 and thereafter, we expect that our significant cash requirements will ~~include funding capital commitments such as construction projects;~~ include:

•paying dividends to our stockholders; ~~making scheduled interest payments on the Senior Unsecured Notes (including the $500.0 million of 2.400% Senior Notes due 2031 that we issued in October 2020 (~~

•~~Note 16)) and~~making scheduled principal and balloon payments on our ~~mortgage loan obligations;~~debt obligations (Note 10);

•making scheduled interest payments on our debt obligations (future interest payments total $942.4 million, with $175.2 million due during the next 12 months; interest on unhedged variable-rate debt obligations was calculated using the applicable annual variable interest rates and balances outstanding at March 31, 2021);

•funding future capital commitments and tenant improvement allowances (Note 4); and

•other normal recurring operating expenses.

We expect to fund these cash requirements through cash generated from operations, cash received from dispositions of properties, the use of our cash reserves or unused amounts on our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility (as described above), issuances of common stock through our forward sale agreements and/or ATM Program (Note 12), and potential issuances of additional debt or equity securities. We may also choose to pursue the acquisitions of new investments and prepayments of certain of our non-recourse mortgage loan obligations, depending on our capital needs and improvements in ~~current~~ market ~~conditions.~~conditions at that time.

Our liquidity could be adversely affected by unanticipated costs, greater-than-anticipated operating expenses, and the adverse impact of ~~COVID-19.~~the COVID-19 pandemic. To the extent that our working capital reserve is insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, additional funds may be provided from cash from operations to meet our normal recurring short-term and long-term liquidity needs. We may also use existing cash resources, available capacity under our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, ~~(as described above),~~ mortgage loan proceeds, and the issuance of additional debt or equity securities ~~(as described above)~~ to meet these needs.

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our liquidity and debt covenants will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence. The potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our tenants and properties could also have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and debt covenants.

Certain amounts disclosed above are based on the applicable foreign currency exchange rate at March 31, 2021.

~~Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations~~

The table below summarizes our debt, off-balance sheet arrangements, and other contractual obligations (primarily our capital commitments) at September 30, 2020 and the effect that these arrangements and obligations are expected to have on our liquidity and cash flow in the specified future periods (in thousands):

Amounts in the table above that relate to our foreign operations are based on the exchange rate of the local currencies at September 30, 2020, which consisted primarily of the euro. At September 30, 2020, we had no material capital lease obligations for which we were the lessee, either individually or in the aggregate.

Supplemental Financial Measures

In the real estate industry, analysts and investors employ certain non-GAAP supplemental financial measures in order to facilitate meaningful comparisons between periods and among peer companies. Additionally, in the formulation of our goals and in the evaluation of the effectiveness of our strategies, we use Funds from Operations (“FFO”) and AFFO, which are non-GAAP measures defined by our management. We believe that these measures are useful to investors to consider because they may assist them to better understand and measure the performance of our business over time and against similar companies. A description of FFO and AFFO and reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided below.

Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations

Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”), an industry trade group, has promulgated a non-GAAP measure known as FFO, which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental measure, when used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP, to reflect the operating performance of a REIT. The use of FFO is recommended by the REIT industry as a supplemental non-GAAP measure. FFO is not equivalent to, nor a substitute for, net income or loss as determined under GAAP.

We define FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the standards established by the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, as restated in December 2018. The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of property, impairment charges on real estate, gains or losses on changes in control of interests in real estate, and depreciation and amortization from real estate assets; and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments are calculated to reflect FFO.

We also modify the NAREIT computation of FFO to adjust GAAP net income for certain non-cash charges, such as amortization of real estate-related intangibles, deferred income tax benefits and expenses, straight-line rent and related reserves, other non-cash rent adjustments, non-cash allowance for credit losses on loans receivable and direct financing leases, ~~and other assets,~~ stock-based compensation, non-cash environmental accretion expense, amortization of discounts and premiums on debt, and amortization of deferred financing costs. Our assessment of our operations is focused on long-term sustainability and not on such non-cash items, which may cause short-term fluctuations in net income but have no impact on cash flows. Additionally, we exclude non-core income and expenses, such as gains or losses from extinguishment of debt and merger and acquisition expenses. We also exclude realized and unrealized gains/losses on foreign currency exchange transactions (other than those realized on the settlement of foreign currency derivatives), which are not considered fundamental attributes of our business plan and do not affect our overall long-term operating performance. We refer to our modified definition of FFO as AFFO. We exclude these items from GAAP net income to arrive at AFFO as they are not the primary drivers in our decision-making process and excluding these items provides investors a view of our portfolio performance over time and makes it more comparable to other REITs that are currently not engaged in acquisitions, mergers, and restructuring, which are not part of our normal business operations. AFFO also reflects adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. We use AFFO as one measure of our operating performance when we formulate corporate goals, evaluate the effectiveness of our strategies, and determine executive compensation.

~~W. P. Carey 9/30/2020 10-Q~~– 67

We believe that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for investors to consider as we believe it will help them to better assess the sustainability of our operating performance without the potentially distorting impact of these short-term fluctuations. However, there are limits on the usefulness of AFFO to investors. For example, impairment charges and unrealized foreign currency losses that we exclude may become actual realized losses upon the ultimate disposition of the properties in the form of lower cash proceeds or other considerations. We use our FFO and AFFO measures as supplemental financial measures of operating performance. We do not use our FFO and AFFO measures as, nor should they be considered to be, alternatives to net income computed under GAAP, or as alternatives to net cash provided by operating activities computed under GAAP, or as indicators of our ability to fund our cash needs.

~~(i)Amount for the nine months ended September 30,~~March 31, 2020 includes a non-cash deferred tax benefit of $37.2 million as a result of the release of a deferred tax liability relating to our investment in shares of ~~a cold storage operator,~~Lineage Logistics, which converted to a REIT during the current year period and is therefore no longer subject to federal and state income taxes (Note 13).

~~(j)~~(g)Amount for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2020 includes a one-time tax benefit of ~~$4.7~~$7.2 million as a result of carrying back certain net operating losses in accordance with the CARES Act, which was enacted on March 27, 2020 (Note 13).

~~(k)Amount for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 includes a current tax benefit, which is excluded from AFFO as it was incurred as a result of the CPA:17 Merger.~~

~~(l)~~(h)Beginning with the first quarter of 2020, this adjustment includes distributions received from CWI 1 and CWI 2 for both AFFO attributable to W. P. Carey and AFFO attributable to W. P. Carey — Investment Management (through April 13, 2020, the closing date of the CWI 1 and CWI 2 Merger) and from WLT for both AFFO attributable to W. P. Carey and AFFO attributable to W. P. Carey — Real Estate (after April 13, 2020) in place of our pro rata share of net income from our ownership of shares of CWI 1, CWI 2, and WLT, as applicable. We ~~did~~have not ~~receive~~received any such distributions during the ~~second or third quarter of 2020,~~reporting period, due to the adverse effect of ~~COVID-19.~~the COVID-19 pandemic.

While we believe that FFO and AFFO are important supplemental measures, they should not be considered as alternatives to net income as an indication of a company’s operating performance. These non-GAAP measures should be used in conjunction with net income as defined by GAAP. FFO and AFFO, or similarly titled measures disclosed by other REITs, may not be comparable to our FFO and AFFO measures.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Market Risk

Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, and equity prices. The primary market risks that we are exposed to are interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange risk; however, we ~~generally~~ do not use derivative instruments to hedge credit/market risks or for speculative purposes. From time to time, we may enter into foreign currency collars to hedge our foreign currency cash flow exposures.

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic both in the Unites States and globally continues to cause uncertainty and volatility in financial markets, including interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The outbreak is expected to have a continued adverse impact on market conditions for the foreseeable future and has triggered a period of global economic slowdown with no known duration. At ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, our net-lease portfolio (which excludes operating properties) had the following concentrations (as a percentage of our ABR) for property types with heightened risk as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic:

•~~17.4%~~17.7% related to retail facilities (primarily from do-it-yourself, grocery, convenience, and wholesale stores);

•1.7% related to hotel (net lease) properties; and

•~~1.5%~~1.6% related to fitness facilities, theaters, and restaurants.

There may be an impact across all industries and geographic regions in which our tenants operate as a result of ~~COVID-19.~~the COVID-19 pandemic. Given the significant uncertainty around the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are unable to predict the impact it will have on our tenants’ continued ability to pay rent.

We are also exposed to further market risk as a result of tenant concentrations in certain industries and/or geographic regions, since adverse market factors (such as the COVID-19 pandemic) can affect the ability of tenants in a particular industry/region to meet their respective lease obligations. In order to manage this risk, we view our collective tenant roster as a portfolio and we attempt to diversify such portfolio so that we are not overexposed to a particular industry or geographic region.

Interest Rate Risk

The values of our real estate and related fixed-rate debt obligations, as well as the values of our unsecured debt obligations, are subject to fluctuations based on changes in interest rates. The value of our real estate is also subject to fluctuations based on local and regional economic conditions (including the ongoing impact of ~~COVID-19)~~the COVID-19 pandemic) and changes in the creditworthiness of lessees, which may affect our ability to refinance property-level mortgage debt when balloon payments are scheduled, if we do

~~W. P. Carey 9/30/2020 10-Q~~– 72

not choose to repay the debt when due. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political conditions, and other factors beyond our control. An increase in interest rates would likely cause the fair value of our owned and managed assets to decrease, which would create lower revenues from managed assets and lower investment performance for the Managed Programs. Increases in interest rates may also have an impact on the credit profile of certain tenants.

At ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, a significant portion (approximately ~~91.0%~~93.6%) of our long-term debt either bore interest at fixed rates or was swapped or capped to a fixed rate. Our debt obligations are more fully described in Note 10 and Liquidity and Capital Resources — Summary of Financing in Item 2 above. The following table presents principal cash flows based upon expected maturity dates of our debt obligations outstanding at ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 (in thousands):

__________

(a)Amounts are based on the exchange rate at ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, as applicable.

W. P. Carey 3/31/2021 10-Q– 59

(b)Amounts after ~~2022~~2023 are primarily comprised of principal payments for our Senior Unsecured Notes (Note 10).

The estimated fair value of our fixed-rate debt and our variable-rate debt that currently bears interest at fixed rates or has effectively been converted to a fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps, or that has been subject to interest rate caps, is affected by changes in interest rates. Annual interest expense on our unhedged variable-rate debt that does not bear interest at fixed rates at ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 would increase or decrease by ~~$2.1~~$2.2 million for our British pound sterling-denominated debt, by $1.7 million for our euro-denominated ~~debt, by $1.6 million for our U.S. dollar-denominated~~ debt, and by $0.2 million for our Japanese yen-denominated debt, for each respective 1% change in annual interest rates.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We own international investments, primarily in Europe, Canada, and Japan, and as a result are subject to risk from the effects of exchange rate movements in various foreign currencies, primarily the euro, the British pound sterling, the Danish krone, the Canadian dollar, and the Japanese yen, which may affect future costs and cash flows. We have obtained, and may in the future obtain, non-recourse mortgage financing in the local currency. We have also completed ~~five~~several offerings of euro-denominated senior notes, and have borrowed under our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility in foreign currencies, including the euro, British pound sterling, and Japanese yen (Note 10). Volatile market conditions arising from the COVID-19 global pandemic may result in significant fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. To the extent that currency fluctuations increase or decrease rental revenues, as translated to U.S. dollars, the change in debt service (comprised of principal and interest, excluding balloon payments), as translated to U.S. dollars, will partially offset the effect of fluctuations in revenue and, to some extent, mitigate the risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We estimate that, for a 1% increase or decrease in the exchange rate between the euro, British pound sterling, or Japanese yen and the U.S. dollar, there would be a corresponding change in the projected estimated cash flow (scheduled future rental revenues, net of scheduled future debt service payments) for our consolidated foreign operations at ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 of ~~$29.7~~$2.6 million, ~~$5.2~~$0.5 million, and less than $0.1 million, respectively, excluding the impact of our derivative instruments.

In addition, we may use currency hedging to further reduce the exposure to our equity cash flow. We are generally a net receiver of these currencies (we receive more cash than we pay out), and therefore our foreign operations benefit from a weaker U.S. dollar and are adversely affected by a stronger U.S. dollar, relative to the foreign currency.

We enter into foreign currency collars to hedge certain of our foreign currency cash flow exposures. See Note 9 for additional information on our foreign currency collars.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Concentrations of credit risk arise when a number of tenants are engaged in similar business activities or have similar economic risks or conditions that could cause them to default on their lease obligations to us. We regularly monitor our portfolio to assess potential concentrations of credit risk. While we believe our portfolio is well-diversified, it does contain concentrations in certain areas. There have been no material changes in our concentration of credit risk from what was disclosed in the ~~2019~~2020 Annual Report.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our disclosure controls and procedures include internal controls and other procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in this and other reports filed under the ~~Securities~~ Exchange Act ~~of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”),~~ is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the required time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. It should be noted that no system of controls can provide complete assurance of achieving a company’s objectives and that future events may impact the effectiveness of a system of controls.

Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, after conducting an evaluation, together with members of our management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of ~~September 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective as of ~~September 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 at a reasonable level of assurance.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

W. P. Carey ~~9/30/2020~~3/31/2021 10-Q – 7561

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

~~Item 1A. Risk Factors.~~

~~We are including the following additional risk factor, which should be read in conjunction with our description of risk factors provided in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our 2019 Annual Report.~~

~~Our business may be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.~~

We face risks related to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which has severely impacted, and is likely to continue to adversely impact, global economies. The COVID-19 pandemic has evolved rapidly and often unpredictably, triggering a period of economic slowdown of unknown duration. The multifaceted impact and fluidity of this situation is without precedent in modern history. We are closely monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business, including the financial condition of our tenants and our portfolio metrics. The ongoing economic downturn and market volatility has already eroded the financial conditions of certain of our tenants and operating properties. Given the significant uncertainty around the duration and severity of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are unable to predict the impact that it will have on our tenants’ continued ability to pay rent. Therefore, information provided regarding historical rent collections should not serve as an indication of expected future rent collections.

It is likely that the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to cause severe economic, market, and other disruptions worldwide. The breadth and duration of business disruptions related to COVID-19, as well as its impact on the U.S. economy and consumer confidence, remains undetermined. The spread of COVID-19 has caused continuing volatility in U.S. and international debt and equity markets, which can also negatively impact consumer confidence. We cannot assure you that conditions in the bank lending, capital, and other financial markets will not further deteriorate as a result of the pandemic, causing our access to capital and other sources of funding to become constrained, which could adversely affect our ability to meet our financial covenants, as well as the terms or even availability of future borrowings, renewals, and refinancings. Rapid changes in laws and regulatory policies, including the effects of government fiscal and monetary policies, could subject us to additional market volatility and risks.

Any preventative actions related to COVID-19 that we or governmental authorities may take could result in business disruptions; however, failure to take a cautious approach could exacerbate the crisis and subject us to risks arising from potential legal liabilities. Consequently, the COVID-19 pandemic presents material risks with respect to our performance, including to our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, prospects, and ability to maintain our current dividends, as well as the estimated fair values of our investments and properties. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our results and operations will depend on future developments, including new information that may emerge concerning COVID-19 and potential vaccines or treatments, the duration of the outbreak, and actions taken to contain COVID-19 or mitigate its impacts, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence.
