(Unaudited)

1. ORGANIZATION
Phillips Edison & Company, Inc. (“we,” the “Company,” “our,” or “us”) was formed as a Maryland corporation in October 2009. Substantially all of our business is conducted through Phillips Edison Grocery Center Operating Partnership I, L.P., (the “Operating Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership formed in December 2009. We are a limited partner of the Operating Partnership, and our wholly owned subsidiary, Phillips Edison Grocery Center OP GP I LLC, is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership.
We invest primarily in well-occupied, grocery-anchored, neighborhood and community shopping centers that have a mix of creditworthy national, regional, and regionallocal retailers that sell necessity-based goods and services in strong demographic markets throughout the United States. In addition to managing our own shopping centers,properties, our third-party investment management business provides comprehensive real estate and asset management services to certain(i) Phillips Edison Grocery Center REIT III, Inc. (“PECO III”), a non-traded publicly registered real estate investment trusts (“REITs”)REIT; (ii) three institutional joint ventures; and (iii) one private funds (“Managedfund (collectively, the “Managed Funds”). The Managed Funds include
In November 2018, we completed a merger (the “Merger”) with Phillips Edison Grocery Center REIT II, Inc. (“REIT II”), Phillips Edison Grocery Centera
public non-traded REIT III, Inc. (“PECO III”), Phillips Edison Limited Partnership (“PELP”),that was advised and managed by us, in a 100% stock-for-stock transaction valued at approximately
$1.9 billion. As a result of the Merger, we acquired 86 properties and a 20% equity interest in Necessity Retail Partners (“NRP” or the “NRP joint venture”).
As of September 30, 2018, we, a joint venture that owned fee simple interests in 233 real estate13 properties.
In July 2018 we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (“Merger Agreement”) pursuant to which, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, we will merge with REIT II, and we will continue as the surviving corporation (“Merger”). To complete the proposed Merger, we will issue 2.04 shares of our common stock in exchange for each issued and outstanding share of REIT II common stock, subject to closing adjustments. For a more detailed discussion, see Note 3.4.
In November 2018, through our direct or indirect subsidiaries, we entered into a joint venture with The Northwestern
Mutual Life Insurance Company (“Northwestern Mutual”). At formation, we contributed or sold 17 grocery-anchored shopping centers with a fair value of approximately $359 million to the new joint venture, Grocery Retail Partners I LLC (“GRP I” or the “GRP I joint venture”). GRP I also assumed a portfolio loan from us as part of this transaction. In exchange, we received a 15% ownership interest in GRP I and cash of $161.8 million. For a more detailed discussion, see Note 6.
As of June 30, 2019, we wholly-owned fee simple interests in 298 real estate properties. In addition, we owned a 20% equity interest in NRP and a 15% interest in GRP I, as described previously.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Certain of our accounting estimates are particularly important for an understanding of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by management. For example, significant estimates and assumptions have been made with respect to the useful lives of assets, recoverable amounts of receivables, and other fair value measurement assessments required for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. As a result, these estimates are subject to a degree of uncertainty.
Other than those noted below, there have been no changes to our significant accounting policies during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2018.2019. For a full summary of our accounting policies, refer to our 20172018 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 30, 2018.13, 2019.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation—The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Readers of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should refer to our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017,2018, which are included in our 20172018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the periods presented have been included in this Quarterly Report. Our results of operations for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2018,2019, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the full year.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.
Leases—We are party to a number of lease agreements, both as a lessor as well as a lessee of various types of assets.
Lessor—The majority of our revenue is lease revenue derived from our real estate assets, which is accounted for under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”). We adopted the accounting guidance contained within ASC 842 on January 1, 2019, the effective date of the standard for public companies. We record lease and lease-related revenue as Rental Income on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income, also referred to herein as our “consolidated statements of operations”, in accordance with ASC 842.
We enter into leases primarily as a lessor as part of our real estate operations, and leases represent the majority of our revenue. We lease space in our properties generally in the form of operating leases. Our leases typically provide for reimbursements from tenants for common area maintenance, insurance, and real estate tax expenses. Common area maintenance reimbursements can be fixed, with revenue earned on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, or variable, with revenue recognized as services are performed for which we will be reimbursed.


The terms and expirations of our operating leases with our tenants are generally similar. The majority of leases for inline (non-anchor) tenants have terms that range from 2 to 10 years, and the majority of leases for anchor tenants range from 3 to 13 years. In both cases, the full term of the lease prior to our acquisition or assumption of the lease will generally be longer, however, we are measuring the commencement date for these purposes as being the date that we acquired or assumed the lease, excluding option periods.
The lease agreements frequently contain fixed-price renewal options to extend the terms of leases and other terms and conditions as negotiated. In calculating the term of our leases, we consider whether these options are reasonably certain to be exercised. Our determination involves a combination of contract-, asset-, entity-, and market-based factors and involves considerable judgment. We retain substantially all of the risks and benefits of ownership of the real estate assets leased to tenants. Currently, our tenants have no options to purchase at the end of the lease term, although in a small number of leases, a tenant, usually the anchor tenant, may have the right of first refusal to purchase one of our properties if we elect to sell the center.
Beginning January 1, 2019, we evaluate whether a lease is an operating, sales-type, or direct financing lease using the criteria established in ASC 842. Leases will be considered either sales-type or direct financing leases if any of the following criteria are met:
if the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee by the end of the term;
if the lease grants the lessee an option to purchase the underlying asset that is reasonably certain to be exercised;
if the lease term is for the major part of the remaining economic life of the underlying asset; or
if the present value of the sum of the lease payments and any residual value guaranteed by the lessee equals or exceeds substantially all of the fair value of the underlying asset.
We utilize substantial judgment in determining the fair value of the leased asset, the economic life of the leased asset, and the relevant borrowing rate in performing our lease classification analysis. If none of the criteria listed above are met, the lease is classified as an operating lease. Currently all of our leases are classified as operating leases, and we expect that the majority, if not all, of our leases will continue to be classified as operating leases based upon our typical lease terms.
We commence revenue recognition on our leases based on a number of factors. In most cases, revenue recognition under a lease begins when the lessee takes possession of or controls the physical use of the leased asset. The determination of when revenue recognition under a lease begins, as well as the nature of the leased asset, is dependent upon our assessment of who is the owner, for accounting purposes, of any related tenant improvements. If we are the owner, for accounting purposes, of the tenant improvements, then the leased asset is the finished space, and revenue recognition begins when the lessee takes possession of the finished space, typically when the improvements are substantially complete.
If we conclude that we are not the owner, for accounting purposes, of the tenant improvements (i.e., the lessee is the owner), then the leased asset is the unimproved space and any tenant allowances funded under the lease are treated as lease incentives, which reduce revenue recognized over the term of the lease. In these circumstances, we begin revenue recognition when the lessee takes possession of the unimproved space to construct their own improvements. We consider a number of different factors in evaluating whether the lessee or we are the owner of the tenant improvements for accounting purposes. These factors include:
whether the lease stipulates how and on what a tenant improvement allowance may be spent;
whether the tenant or landlord retains legal title to the improvements;
the uniqueness of the improvements;
the expected economic life of the tenant improvements relative to the length of the lease; and
who constructs or directs the construction of the improvements.
The majority of our leases provide for fixed rental escalations, and we recognize rental income on a straight-line basis over the term of each lease in such instances. The difference between rental income earned on a straight-line basis and the cash rent due under the provisions of the lease agreements is recorded as deferred rent receivable and is included as a component of Other Assets, Net. Due to the impact of the straight-line adjustments, rental income generally will be greater than the cash collected in the early years and will be less than the cash collected in the later years of a lease.
Reimbursements from tenants for recoverable real estate taxes and operating expenses that are fixed per the terms of the applicable lease agreements are recorded on a straight-line basis, as described above. The majority of our lease agreements with tenants, however, provide for tenant reimbursements that are variable depending upon the applicable expenses incurred. These reimbursements are accrued as revenue in the period in which the applicable expenses are incurred. We make certain assumptions and judgments in estimating the reimbursements at the end of each reporting period. We do not expect the actual results to materially differ from the estimated reimbursements. Both fixed and variable tenant reimbursements are recorded as Rental Income in the consolidated statements of operations. In certain cases, the lease agreement may stipulate that a tenant make a direct payment for real estate taxes to the relevant taxing authorities. In these cases, beginning on January 1, 2019, we no longer record any revenue or expense related to these tenant expenditures. Although we expect such cases to be rare, in the event that a direct-paying tenant failed to make their required payment to the taxing authorities, we would potentially be liable for such amounts, although they are not recorded as a liability in our consolidated balance sheets per the requirements of ASC 842. We have made a policy election to exclude amounts collected from customers for all sales tax and other similar taxes from the transaction price in our recognition of lease revenue.
Additionally, we record an immaterial amount of variable revenue in the form of percentage rental income. Our policy for percentage rental income is to defer recognition of contingent rental income until the specified target (i.e., breakpoint) that triggers the contingent rental income is achieved.


In some instances, as part of our negotiations, we may offer lease incentives to our tenants. These incentives usually take the form of payments made to or on behalf of the tenant, and such incentives will be deducted from the lease payment and recorded on a straight-line basis over the term of the new lease.
We record lease termination income if there is a signed termination agreement, all of the conditions of the agreement have been met, collectability is reasonably assured and the tenant is no longer occupying the property. Upon early lease termination, we provide for losses related to unrecovered tenant-specific intangibles and other assets. We record lease termination income as Rental Income in the consolidated statements of operations.
Historically, we periodically reviewed the collectability of outstanding receivables. Following the adoption of ASC 842, as of January 1, 2019, lease receivables are reviewed continually to determine whether or not it is likely that we will realize all amounts receivable for each of our tenants (i.e., whether a tenant is deemed to be a credit risk). If we determine that the tenant is not a credit risk, no reserve or reduction of revenue is recorded, except in the case of disputed charges. If we determine that the tenant is a credit risk, revenue for that tenant is recorded on a cash basis, including any amounts relating to straight-line rent receivables and/or receivables for recoverable expenses. Under ASC 842, the aforementioned adjustments as well as any reserve for disputed charges are recorded as a reduction of Rental Income rather than in Property Operating, where our reserves were previously recorded, on the consolidated statements of operations.
Lessee—We enter into leases as a lessee as part of our real estate operations in the form of ground leases of land for certain properties, and as part of our corporate operations in the form of office space and office equipment leases. Ground leases typically have initial terms of 15-40 years with one or more options to renew for additional terms of 3-5 years, and may include options that grant us, as the lessee, the right to terminate the lease, without penalty, in advance of the full lease term. Our office space leases generally have terms of less than ten years with no renewal options. Office equipment leases typically have terms ranging from 3-5 years with options to extend the term for a year or less, but contain minimal termination rights. In calculating the term of our leases, we consider whether we are reasonably certain to exercise renewal and/or termination options. Our determination involves a combination of contract-, asset-, entity-, and market-based factors and involves considerable judgment.
Currently, neither our operating leases nor our finance leases have residual value guarantees or other restrictions or covenants, but a small number may contain nonlease components which have been deemed not material. Beginning January 1, 2019, we evaluate whether a lease is a finance or operating lease using the criteria established in ASC 842. The criteria we use to determine whether a lease is a finance lease are the same as those we use to determine whether a lease is sales-type lease as a lessor. If none of the finance lease criteria is met, we classify the lease as an operating lease.
We record right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets based upon the terms and conditions of the applicable lease agreement. We use discount rates to calculate the present value of lease payments when determining lease classification and measuring our lease liability. We use the rate implicit in the lease as our discount rate unless that rate cannot be readily determined, in which case we consider various factors to select an appropriate discount rate. This requires the application of judgment, and we consider the length of the lease as well as the length and securitization of our outstanding debt agreements in selecting an appropriate rate. Refer to Note 3 for further detail.
Revenue Recognition—In addition to our lease-related revenue, we also earn fee revenues by providing services to the Managed Funds. These fees are accounted for within the scope of ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), and are recorded as Fees and Management Income on the consolidated statements of operations. We provide services to the Managed Funds, all of which are considered related parties. These services primarily include asset acquisition and disposition services, asset management, operating and leasing of properties, construction management, and other general and administrative responsibilities. These services are currently provided under various combinations of advisory agreements, property management agreements, and other service agreements (the “Management Agreements”). The wide variety of duties within the Management Agreements makes determining the performance obligations within the contracts a matter of judgment. We have concluded that each of the separately disclosed fee types in the below table represents a separate performance obligation within the Management Agreements.


The table below shows the most significant of these fee types in the Management Agreements:
FeePerformance Obligation SatisfiedForm and Timing of PaymentDescription
Asset ManagementOver timeIn cash and/or ownership units, monthlyBecause each increment of service is distinct, although substantially the same, revenue is recognized at the end of each reporting period based upon asset base and the applicable rate.
Property ManagementOver timeIn cash, monthlyBecause each increment of service is distinct, although substantially the same, revenue is recognized at the end of each month based on a percentage of the properties’ cash receipts.
Leasing CommissionsPoint in time (upon close of a transaction)In cash, upon completionRevenue is recognized in an amount equal to the fees charged by unaffiliated persons rendering comparable services in the same geographic location.
Construction ManagementPoint in time (upon close of a project)In cash, upon completionRevenue is recognized in an amount equal to the fees charged by unaffiliated persons rendering comparable services in the same geographic location.
Acquisition/DispositionPoint in time (upon close of a transaction)In cash, upon close of the transactionRevenue is recognized based on a percentage of the purchase price or disposition price of the property acquired or sold.
Due to the nature of the services being provided under our Management Agreements, each performance obligation has a variable component. Therefore, when we determine the transaction price for the contracts, we are required to constrain our estimate to an amount that is not probable of significant revenue reversal. For most of these fee types, such as acquisition fees and leasing commissions, compensation only occurs if a transaction takes place and the amount of compensation is dependent upon the terms of the transaction. For our property and asset management fees, due to the large number and broad range of possible consideration amounts, we calculate the amount earned at the end of each month.
In addition to the fees listed above, certain of our Management Agreements include the potential for additional revenues if certain market conditions are in place or certain events take place. We have not recognized revenue related to these fees, nor will we until it is no longer highly probable that there would be a material reversal of revenue.
Additionally, effective January 1, 2018, sales or transfers to non-customers of non-financial assets or in substance non-financial assets that do not meet the definition of a business are accounted for within the scope of ASC Topic 610-20, Other Income—Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (“ASC 610-20”). Generally, our sales of real estate would be considered a sale of a non-financial asset as defined by ASC 610-20. Under ASC 610-20, if we determine we do not have a controlling financial interest in the entity that holds the asset and the arrangement meets the criteria to be accounted for as a contract, we would de-recognize the asset and recognize a gain or loss on the sale of the real estate when control of the underlying asset transfers to the buyer. Further, we may defer a tax gain through an Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) Section 1031 like-kind exchange by purchasing another property within a specified time period. For additional information regarding gain on sale of assets, refer to Note 5.
Income Taxes—Our consolidated financial statements include the operations of one wholly owned subsidiarysubsidiaries that hashave jointly elected to be treated as a Taxable REIT SubsidiarySubsidiaries (“TRS”) and isare subject to U.S. federal, state, and local income taxes at regular corporate tax rates. As of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, a full valuation allowance was recorded for the entire amount of the net deferred tax asset. During the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019 and 2018, no federal income tax expense or benefit was reported, asand we recorded a full valuation allowance for our net deferred tax asset. We recognized an immaterial amount of state and local income tax expense, which is included in Other (Expense) Income, Net on the consolidated statements of operations.


Recently Issued and Newly Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting PronouncementsThe following table provides a brief description of recent accounting pronouncements that could have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements:
StandardDescriptionDate of AdoptionEffect on the Consolidated Financial Statements or Other Significant Matters
Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326):
Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments

ASU 2018-19, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Codification Improvements

ASU 2019-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief

The amendments in this update replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. It clarifies that receivables arising from operating leases are not within the scope of Topic 326. Instead, impairment of receivables arising from operating leases should be accounted for in accordance with ASC 842. It also allows election of the fair value option on certain financial instruments. This update is effective for public entities in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted after December 15, 2018.January 1, 2020We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements. The majority of our financial instruments result from operating leasing transactions, which are not within the scope of this standard.
ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820)This ASU eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements as part of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s disclosure framework project.

ASU 2018-17, Consolidation (Topic 810): Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest EntitiesThis ASU amends two aspects of the related-party guidance in ASC 810: (1) adds an elective private-company scope exception to the variable interest entity guidance for entities under common control and (2) indirect interests held through related parties in common control arrangements should be considered on a proportional basis for determining whether fees paid to decision makers and service providers are variable interests. For entities other than private companies, the amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. All entities are required to apply the amendments in this update retrospectively with a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings at the beginning of the earliest period presented. Early adoption is permitted.January 1, 2020We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)This update outlines a comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. ASU 2014-09 states that “an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.” While ASU 2014-09 specifically references contracts with customers, it also applies to certain other transactions such as the sale of real estate or equipment. Expanded quantitative and qualitative disclosures are also required for contracts subject to ASU 2014-09.January 1, 2018Our revenue-producing contracts are primarily leases that are not within the scope of this standard. As a result, the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our rental or reimbursement revenue. However, the standard does apply to a majority of our fees and management income. We have evaluated the impact of this standard on our fees and management income; it did not have a material impact on our revenue recognition, but we have provided additional disclosures around fees and management revenue. We adopted this guidance on a modified retrospective basis.

ASU 2018-16, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Inclusion of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) Overnight Index Swap (OIS) Rate as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting PurposesThis update permitted use of the OIS rate based on the SOFR as a US benchmark interest rate for hedge accounting purposes under Topic 815. The purpose of this was to facilitate the LIBOR to SOFR transition and provide sufficient lead time for entities to prepare for changes to interest rate risk hedging strategies for both risk management and hedge accounting purposes.January 1, 2019
The adoption of this standard did not have identified areas withina material impact on our accounting policies we believe could be impacted by the new standard. This standard impacts the lessor’s ability to capitalize certain costs related to leasing, which will result in a reduction in the amount of execution costs currently being capitalized in connection with leasing activities and an increase to our Property Operating expenses. The standard will also require new disclosures within the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements.

We expect to adopt the practical expedients available for implementation under the standard. By adopting these practical expedients, we will not be required to reassess (i) whether an expired or existing contract meets the definition of a lease; (ii) the lease classification at the adoption date for existing leases; and (iii) whether the costs previously capitalized as initial direct costs would continue to be amortized. This allows us to continue to account for our leases where we are the lessee as operating leases, however, any new or renewed leases may be classified as financing leases. We currently have fewer than 50 leases of this type. We also expect to recognize right of use assets and lease liability on our consolidated balance sheets related to certain leases where we are the lessee.


In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11. The update allows lessors to use a practical expedient to account for non-lease components and related lease components as a single lease component instead of accounting for them separately, if certain conditions are met. We expect to utilize this practical expedient.

We will continue to evaluate the effect the adoption of these ASUs will have on our consolidated financial statements. However, we currently believe that the adoption will not have a material impact for operating leases where we are a lessor and will continue to record revenues from rental properties for our operating leases on a straight-line basis. We are still evaluating the impact for leases where we are the lessee.

3. PROPOSEDLEASES
Standard Adoption—Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases. This standard was adopted in conjunction with the related updates, ASU 2018-01, Leases (Topic 842): Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842; ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases; ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements; and ASU 2018-20, Leases (Topic 842): Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors, collectively “ASC 842,” using a modified-retrospective approach, as required. Consequently, financial information will not be updated and the disclosures required under the new standard will not be provided for dates and periods before January 1, 2019.
The adoption of ASC 842 resulted in a $0.5 million adjustment to the current year’s opening balance in Accumulated Deficit on the consolidated balance sheets as a result of recognizing ROU assets and lease liabilities as well as adjustments to our collectability reserve. Beginning in January 1, 2019, due to the new standard’s narrowed definition of initial direct costs, we now expense significant lease origination costs as incurred, which were previously capitalized as initial direct costs and amortized to expense over the lease term. We capitalized $6.2 million of internal costs for the year ended December 31, 2018, some of which we will continue to capitalize in accordance with the standard. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the amounts capitalized were $1.9 million, compared to $2.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018. Amounts that were capitalized prior to the adoption of ASC 842 will continue to be amortized over their remaining lives.
Additionally, ASC 842 requires that lessors exclude from variable payments all costs paid by a lessee directly to a third party. For the year ended December 31, 2018, $8.0 million in real estate tax payments made by tenants directly to third parties was recorded by us as both Tenant Recovery Income and Real Estate Taxes. This amount was approximately $1.3 million and $2.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. Beginning January 1, 2019, such amounts are no longer recognized by us. As the recorded expense was completely offset by the tenant recovery income recorded, this has no net impact to earnings.
Beginning January 1, 2019, operating lease receivables are accounted for under ASC 842, which requires us to recognize changes in the collectability assessment for an operating lease as an adjustment to lease income. For the year ended December 31, 2018, $2.9 million of expense was recorded as Property Operating on our consolidated statements of operations, which would have been recorded as a reduction to Rental Income under the new standard. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the total amount recorded as a reduction to Rental Income as a result of collectability reserves was $0.1 million and $0.7 million, respectively.
Lessor—The majority of our leases are largely similar in that the leased asset is retail space within our properties, and the lease agreements generally contain similar provisions and features, without substantial variations. All of our leases are currently classified as operating leases.
Approximate future fixed contractual lease payments to be received under non-cancelable operating leases in effect as of June 30, 2019, assuming no new or renegotiated leases or option extensions on lease agreements, are as follows (in thousands):

No single tenant comprised 10% or more of our aggregate annualized base rent (“ABR”) as of June 30, 2019. As of June 30, 2019, our real estate investments in Florida and California represented 12.3% and 10.0% of our ABR, respectively. As a result, the geographic concentration of our portfolio makes it particularly susceptible to adverse economic or weather developments in the Florida and California real estate markets.


Lessee—As a lessee, we recognized additional operating lease liabilities of $6.2 million with corresponding ROU assets of $6.0 million, and the difference between them was recorded as an adjustment to Accumulated Deficit on the consolidated balance sheets. On adoption of ASC 842, these asset and liability amounts represented the present value of the remaining fixed minimum rental payments under current leasing standards for existing leases, adjusted as appropriate for amounts written off in transition to the new guidance. The initial measurement of a ROU asset may differ from the initial measurement of the corresponding lease liability due to initial direct costs, prepaid lease payments, and lease incentives.
Lease assets, grouped by balance sheet line where they are recorded, consisted of the following as of June 30, 2019 (in thousands):

4. MERGER WITH REIT II
In JulyNovember 2018, we entered intoacquired 86 properties as part of the Merger Agreement, pursuant to which we will merge with REIT II. Under the terms of the Merger, at the time of closing, the following consideration was given in exchange for REIT II in a 100%common stock transaction valued at approximately $1.9 billion. This proposed Merger will create a portfolio of approximately 320 grocery-anchored shopping centers encompassing more than 36 million square feet in established trade areas across 33 states.(in thousands):

To complete the proposed Merger, we will issueissued 2.04 shares of our common stock in exchange for each issued and outstanding share of REIT II common stock, which iswas equivalent to $22.54 based on our most recent estimated net asset value per share (“EVPS”), as of the date of the transaction, of $11.05. The exchange ratio iswas based on a thorough review of the relative valuation of each entity, including factoring in our growing investment management business as well as each company’s transaction costs. REIT II’s outstanding debt of approximately $800 million is expected to be refinanced or assumed by us at closing under the terms of the Merger Agreement.


The Merger Agreement provides certain termination rights for REIT II and us. In connection with the termination of the Merger Agreement, under certain specified circumstances, REIT II may be required to pay us a termination fee of $31.7 million and we may be required to pay REIT II a termination fee of $75.6 million. The Merger Agreement provided REIT II with a 30-day go-shop period pursuant to which they could solicit, receive, evaluate, and enter into negotiations with respect to alternative proposals from third-parties. The go-shop period ended during the third quarter.
On a pro forma basis, uponUpon completion of the Merger, we estimate that our continuing stockholders will ownowned approximately 71% of the issued and outstanding shares of the combined companyCompany on a fully diluted basis (determined as if each Operating Partnership unit (“OP unit”) were exchanged for one share of our common stock), and former REIT II stockholders will ownowned approximately 29% of the issued and outstanding shares of the combined companyCompany on a fully diluted basis (determined as if each OP unit were exchanged for one share of our common stock).
Assets Acquired and Liabilities AssumedAfter consideration of all applicable factors pursuant to the business combination accounting rules under ASC 805, Business Combinations(“ASC 805”), including the application of a screen test to evaluate if substantially all the fair value of the acquired properties is concentrated in a single asset or group of similar assets, we have concluded that the Merger will be treatedqualified as an asset acquisition.
Additionally, prior to the close of the Merger, all of REIT II’s real properties were managed and leased by us, under the terms of various management agreements. As we had contractual relationships with REIT II, we considered the provisions of ASC 805 regarding the settlement of pre-existing relationships. This guidance provides that a transaction that in effect settles pre-existing relationships between the acquirer and acquiree should be evaluated under the guidance set forth in ASC 805 for possible gain/loss recognition.
In applying the relevant guidance to the settlement of our contractual relationships with REIT II, we noted that the provisions of the various agreements provided both parties to each of the agreements with substantial termination rights. The agreements permitted either party to terminate without cause or penalty upon prior written notice within a specified number of days’ notice. Therefore, we determined that the termination of the agreements did not result in a settlement gain or loss under the relevant guidance, and thus no gain or loss was recorded in the consolidated financial statements.
Prior to the consummation of the Merger, we did, however, have an existing intangible asset related to our acquisition under GAAP. of certain REIT II management contracts. Because this relationship was internalized as part of the Merger, we derecognized the carrying value of these intangible assets upon completion of the Merger and have included the derecognized contract value of $30.4 million in our calculation of total consideration in the table above.


As of September 30,December 31, 2018, we have deferred for capitalization $2.8capitalized approximately $11.6 million in costs related to the merger.

4. PELP ACQUISITION
On October 4, 2017, we completed a transaction to acquire certain real estate assets,Merger. The following table summarizes the third-party investment management business, and the captive insurance company of PELP in a stock and cash transaction (“PELP transaction”). Under the terms of this transaction, the following consideration was given in exchange for the contribution of PELP’s ownership interests in 76 shopping centers, its third-party investment management business, and its captive insurance company (in thousands):

Total consideration974,790
PELP debt repaid by the Company on the transaction date(432,091)
Net consideration$542,699
We issued 39.4 million OP units with an estimated fair value per unit of $10.20 at the time of the transaction. Certain of our executive officers who received OP units as part of the PELP transaction entered into an agreement which provides that they will not transfer their OP units for either two or three years following the closing. The remaining holders of the OP units are subject to the terms of exchange for shares of common stock outlined in the Operating Partnership’s Third Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (“Partnership Agreement”) (see Note 10). The terms of the PELP transaction included an earn-out structure with an opportunity for up to an additional 12.5 million OP units to be issued. For more detail regarding this earn-out, see Note 14.
Immediately following the closing of the PELP transaction, our stockholders owned approximately 80.6% and former PELP stockholders owned approximately 19.4% of the combined company.


Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed—The PELP transaction was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting under ASC 805, Business Combinations, which requires, among other things, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The preliminary fair market value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed wasfinal purchase price allocation based on a valuation report prepared by a third-party valuation specialist that was subject to management’s review and approval. The following table summarizes the purchase price allocation based on that reportapproval (in thousands):

The allocation of the purchase price wasis based on management’s assessment, which may change in the future as more information becomes available and could have an impact on the unaudited pro forma financial information presented below. Subsequent adjustments made to the purchase price allocation upon the completion of our fair value assessment process will not exceed one year from the acquisition date. The allocation of the purchase price above requiredrequires a significant amount of judgment and representedrepresents management’s best estimate of the fair value as of the acquisition date.
Intangible Assets and Liabilities—The fair value and weighted-average amortization periods for the intangible assets and liabilities acquired in the PELP transaction as of the transaction date were as follows (dollars in thousands, useful life in years):

Acquired below-market leases(49,109)13
Goodwill—In connection with the PELP transaction, we recorded goodwill of $29.1 million as a result of the consideration exceeding the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill represents the estimated future benefits arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. We do not expect that the goodwill will be deductible for tax purposes. The goodwill recorded represents our management structure and its ability to generate additional opportunities for revenue and raise additional funds, and therefore the full amount of goodwill was allocated to the Investment Management segment, which comprises one reporting unit. For more information about each of our reporting segments, see Note 15.
Results of Operations—The consolidated net assets and results of operations of PELP’s contributions were included in the consolidated financial statements from the transaction date going forward and resulted in the following impact to Revenue and Net Loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 (in thousands):

Acquisition Costs—We incurred approximately $17.0 million of costs related to the PELP transaction, $9.8 million of which was incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, and was recorded as Transaction Expenses on the consolidated statements of operations. No costs related to the PELP transaction were recorded in 2018.


Pro Forma Results (Unaudited)—The following unaudited pro forma information summarizes selected financial information from our combined results of operations, as if the PELP transaction had occurred on January 1, 2016. These results contain certain nonrecurring adjustments, such as the elimination of transaction expenses incurred related to the PELP transaction and the elimination of intercompany activity related to creating an internalized management structure. This pro forma information is presented for informational purposes only, and may not be indicative of what actual results of operations would have been had the PELP transaction occurred at the beginning of the period, nor does it purport to represent the results of future operations.

AcquisitionsDuringThe following table summarizes our real estate acquisitions during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2018, we acquired two grocery-anchored shopping centers. The first quarter acquisition closed out the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) Section 1031 like-kind exchange outstanding at December 31, 2017. We also acquired one land parcel adjacent to a property we currently own for $0.7 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, we acquired six grocery-anchored shopping centers.

6. INVESTMENTS IN UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES
We co-invest with third parties in joint ventures that own multiple properties. As a result of the Merger in November 2018, we acquired a 20% interest in the NRP joint venture. In November 2018, we also entered into an agreement (the “Joint Venture Agreement”) with Northwestern Mutual to create the GRP I joint venture. Under the terms of the Joint Venture Agreement, we contributed or sold all of our ownership interests in 17 grocery-anchored shopping centers to the GRP I joint venture.
The following table details our investment balances in these unconsolidated joint ventures, which are accounted for using the equity method of accounting and are considered to be related parties to us as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 (dollars in thousands):

8.9. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives—We are exposed to certain risks arising from both our business operations and economic conditions. We principally manage our exposure to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of our core business activities. We manage economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of our debt funding, and through the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, we enter into interest rate swaps to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. Our derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of our known or expected cash receipts and our known or expected cash payments principally related to our investments and borrowings.
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk—Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for our making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.
The changechanges in the fair value of derivatives designated, and that qualify, as cash flow hedges isare recorded in AOCI and isare subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. During the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20182019 and 2017,2018, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with certain variable-rate debt. The ineffectiveness previously reported in earnings for the period ended September 30, 2017, was adjusted to reflect application of the provisions of ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), as of the beginning of 2017. This adjustment was not material.
Amounts reported in AOCI related to these derivatives will be reclassified to Interest Expense, Net as interest payments are made on the variable-rate debt. During the next twelve months, we estimate that an additional $8.8$3.5 million will be reclassified from Other Comprehensive Income (“OCI”)AOCI as a decreasean increase to Interest Expense, Net.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features—We have agreements with our derivative counterparties that contain provisions where, if we default, or are capable of being declared in default, on any of our indebtedness, we could also be declared to be in default on our derivative obligations. As of June 30, 2019, the fair value of our derivatives in a net liability position, which included accrued interest but excluded any adjustment for nonperformance risk related to these agreements, was approximately $21.0 million. As of June 30, 2019, we had not posted any collateral related to these agreements and were not in breach of any agreement provisions. If we had breached any of these provisions, we could have been required to settle our obligations under the agreements at their termination value of $21.0 million.


9.10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation—We are involved in various claims and litigation matters arising in the ordinary course of business, some of which involve claims for damages. Many of these matters are covered by insurance, although they may nevertheless be subject to deductibles or retentions. Although the ultimate liability for these matters cannot be determined, based upon information currently available, we believe the resolution of such claims and litigation will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Environmental Matters—In connection with the ownership and operation of real estate, we may potentially be liable for costs and damages related to environmental matters. In addition, we may own or acquire certain properties that are subject to environmental remediation. Generally,Depending on the nature of the environmental matter, the seller of the property, thea tenant of the property, and/or another third party ismay be responsible for environmental remediation costs related to a property. Additionally, in connection with the purchase of certain properties, the respective sellers and/or tenants may agree to indemnify us against future remediation costs. We also carry environmental liability insurance on our properties that provides limited coverage for any remediation liability and/or pollution liability for third-party bodily injury and/or property damage claims for which we may be liable. We are not aware of any environmental matters which we believe are reasonably likely to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

10.11. EQUITY
On May 9, 2018,General—The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters voted on by stockholders, including one vote per nominee in the election of our board of directors (“Board”). Our charter does not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors.
On May 8, 2019, our Board increased the EVPS of our common stock to $11.05$11.10 based substantially on the estimated market value of our portfolio of real estate properties and our third-party investment management business as of March 31, 2018.2019. We engaged a third-party valuation firm to provide a calculation of the range in EVPS of our common stock as of March 31, 2018,2019, which reflected certain balance sheet assets and liabilities as of that date. Previously, on November 8, 2017,May 9, 2018, our Board increased the EVPS of our common stock to $11.00$11.05 from $10.20$11.00 based substantially on the estimated market value of our portfolio of real estate properties and our third-party investment management business as of October 5, 2017, the first full business day after the closing of the PELP transaction.March 31, 2018.
Shares of our common stock are issued under the Dividend Reinvestment Plan (the “DRIP”) and redeemed under the Share Repurchase Program (“SRP”),DRIP, as discussed below, at the same price as the EVPS in effect at the time of issuance or redemption.issuance.
Dividend Reinvestment Plan—The DRIP allows stockholders to invest distributions in additional shares of our common stock. stock, subject to certain limits. Stockholders who elect to participate in the DRIP may choose to invest all or a portion of their cash distributions in shares of our common stock at a price equal to our most recent estimated value per share.


Stockholders who elect to participate in the DRIP, and who are subject to U.S. federal income taxation laws, will incur a tax liability on an amount equal to the fair value on the relevant distribution date of the shares of our common stock purchased with reinvested distributions, even though such stockholders have elected not to receive the distributions in cash. In connection with the proposed Merger (see Note 3), the DRIP was temporarily suspended for the month of July 2018; therefore, all DRIP participants received their July 2018 distribution in cash rather than in stock. The DRIP plan resumed in August 2018, with the distribution paid in September 2018.
Share Repurchase Program (“SRP”)—Our SRP provides an opportunity for stockholders to have shares of common stock repurchased, subject to certain restrictions and limitations. The Board reserves the right, in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time, to reject any request for repurchase. Further, the cash available for repurchases on any particular date will generally be limited to the proceeds from the DRIP during the preceding four fiscal quarters, less amounts already used for repurchases since the beginning of that period. In connection with the Merger, the SRP was also temporarily suspended for the month of July 2018 and resumed in August 2018.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, repurchase requests surpassedDue to the funding limits, under the SRP. Approximately 4.5 million shares of our common stockno proceeds were repurchased under the SRPavailable for standard share repurchases during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2018.2019. Repurchase requests in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability,” or “determination of incompetence” were completed in full. The remaining repurchase requests thatIn July 2019, approximately 1.2 million shares of our common stock were in good order were fulfilled on a pro rata basis. Duerepurchased under the SRP.
On August 7, 2019, the Board suspended the SRP with respect to the program's funding limits, no funds will be available for the remainder of 2018. However, westandard repurchases. We will continue to fulfill repurchases sought upon a stockholder's death, “qualifying disability,” or “determination of incompetence” in accordance with the terms of the SRP.
In connection with the proposed Merger, the combined company will be required to reset its share repurchase queue. As a result, allamended SRP, requests currentlyadopted on file will be canceledAugust 7, 2019 and described in Part II, Item 5 of this Quarterly Report on the date the Merger closes. All stockholders wishing to participate in the SRP after the Merger must submit a new SRP form to the transfer agent, DST, after the Merger to be included in the next standard repurchase of the combined company. All standard repurchase requests must be on file and in good order to be included for next standard repurchase of the combined company, which is expected to be in July 2019. At that time, should the demand for standard redemptions exceed the funding available for repurchases, the combined company is expected to make pro-rata redemptions. Following that standard repurchase, standard repurchase requests that are on file with the combined company and in good order that have not been fully executed (due to pro-rata redemptions), will remain on file for future redemptions.Form 10-Q.
Convertible Noncontrolling InterestsAs part of the PELP transaction, we issued 39.4 million OP units that are classified as Noncontrolling Interests. Prior to the PELP transaction, the Operating Partnership also issued limited partnership units that were designated as Class B units for asset management services provided by our former advisor. Upon closing of the PELP transaction, all outstanding Class B units vested and were converted to OP units.
Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, OP unit holders may elect to exchange OP units. The Operating Partnership controls the form of the redemption, and may elect to exchange OP units for shares of our common stock, provided that the
OP units have been outstanding for at least one year. As the form of redemption for OP units is within our control, the OP units outstanding as of SeptemberJune 30, 20182019 and December 31, 2017,2018, are classified as Noncontrolling Interests within permanent equity on our consolidated balance sheets. The cumulative distributions that have been paid on OP units are included in Distributions to Noncontrolling Interests on the consolidated statements of equity. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, OP units were converted into shares of our common stock at a 1:1 ratio. There were approximately 42.7 million and 44.5 million OP units outstanding as of SeptemberJune 30, 20182019 and December 31, 2017.2018, respectively.
Nonconvertible Noncontrolling Interests—In addition to partnership units of the Operating Partnership, Noncontrolling Interests also includes a 25% ownership share of one of our subsidiaries who provides advisory services, which was not significant to our results.

11.12. COMPENSATION
Awards to employees under our Amended and Restated 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan are typically granted and vest during the first quarter of each year. We also grant restricted stock to our independent directors under our Amended and Restated 2010 Independent Director Stock Plan, which vest based upon the completion of a service period. Certain of our executives have made the election to receive OP units in lieu of shares of common stock upon vesting of their award grants. All share-based compensation awards, regardless of the form of payout upon vesting, are presented in the following table, which summarizes our stock-based award activity (number of units in thousands):

Certain performance-based awards granted during the period contain terms which dictate that the number of award units to be issued will vary based upon actual performance compared to target performance. The number of shares deemed to be issued per this table reflect our probability-weighted estimate of the number of shares that will vest based upon current and expected company performance. The maximum number of award units to be issued under all outstanding grants, excluding phantom stock units as they are settled in cash, was 4.0 million and 1.2 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

On an annual basis, we engage an independent third-party valuation advisory consulting firm to estimate the EVPS of our common stock.
On March 12, 2019, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Committee”) approved a new form of award agreement under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan for performance-based long term incentive units (“Performance LTIP Units”) and made one-time grants of Performance LTIP Units to certain of our executives. Any amounts earned under the Performance LTIP Unit award agreements will be issued in the form of LTIP Units, which represent OP units that are structured as a profits interest in the Operating Partnership. Dividends will accrue on the Performance LTIP Units until the measurement date, subject to a quarterly distribution of 10% of the regular quarterly distributions.
During the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the expense for all stock-based awards, including phantom stock units, was $3.3 million and $3.1 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the expense was $5.3 million and $4.7 million, respectively. We had $22.6 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to these awards that we expect to recognize over a weighted average period of approximately 4.3 years. The fair value at the vesting date for stock-based awards that vested during the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $2.2 million.



13. EARNINGS PER SHARE
We use the two-class method of computing earnings per share (“EPS”), which is an earnings allocation formula that determines EPS for common stock and any participating securities according to dividends declared (whether paid or unpaid). Under the two-class method, basic EPS is computed by dividing Net Loss Attributable to Stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur from share equivalent activity.

OP units held by limited partners other than us are considered to be participating securities because they contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents, and have the potential to be exchanged for an equal number of shares of our common stock in accordance with the terms of the Fourth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership Agreement.of the Operating Partnership. Phantom stock units are not considered to be participating securities, as they are not convertible into common stock.
The impact of OP units on basic and diluted EPS has been calculated using the two-class method whereby earnings are allocated to the OP units based on dividends declared and the OP units’ participation rights in undistributed earnings. The effects of the two-class method on basic and diluted EPS were immaterial to the consolidated financial statements as of SeptemberJune 30, 20182019 and 2017.2018.

12.14. REVENUE RECOGNITION AND RELATED PARTY REVENUETRANSACTIONS
Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted ASU 2014-09, RevenueRevenue from Contracts with Customers, using the modified retrospective approach. The majority of our revenue is lease revenue derived from our Owned Real Estate segment (see Note 15). We record these—Summarized below are amounts as Rental Income and Tenant Recovery Income on the consolidated statements of operations. These revenue amounts are excluded from the scope of ASU 2014-09, as they are accounted for under Topic 840, Leases.
included in Fee revenues from our Investment Management segment are earned by providing services to the Managed Funds. These fees are within the scope of ASU 2014-09 and are recorded as Fees and Management Income on the consolidated statements of operations. Additional immaterial revenue is recorded as Other Property Income on the consolidated statements of operations. The adoption of ASU 2014-09 did not result in any retrospective adjustments to prior periods as our previous revenue recognition policies aligned with the updated guidance.
The Investment Management segment provides services to Managed Funds that are considered related parties. These services primarily include asset acquisition and disposition services, asset management, operating and leasing of properties, construction management, and other general and administrative responsibilities. These services are currently provided under two types of contracts: advisory agreements and property management agreements. Advisory agreements have a duration of one year and are renewed annually at the discretion of the respective boards, but can be terminated upon notice by either party. Property management agreements include both property management agreements and master services agreements, which we have determined should be evaluated as a single agreement for revenue recognition under GAAP. Property management agreements have no defined term, but can be canceled by either party upon 30 days’ notice.


Summarized below is all fee and management revenue for the Investment Management segment.Income. The revenue includes the fees and reimbursements earned by us from the Managed Funds, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, and other revenues that are not in the scope of ASC 606Revenue from Contracts with Customers, but are included in this table for the purpose of disclosing all related party revenues (in thousands):

Insurance premium income from other parties wasincludes amounts from third parties not affiliated with us.us in the amount of $0.5 million and $1.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.
Because the PELP transaction occurred in October 2017, no fee and management income was earned during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
Advisory Agreements—Under our advisory agreements, we earn revenue for managing day-to-day activities and implementing the investment strategy for the Managed Funds. The wide variety of duties as the advisor within these contracts makes determining the performance obligations within the contracts a matter of judgment. We have concluded that each of the separately disclosed fee types in the below table represents a separate performance obligation within the contract.
Due to the nature of the services being provided under the Advisory Agreements, each performance obligation within the contract has a variable component. Therefore when we determine the transaction price for the contract we are required to constrain our estimate to an amount that is not probable of significant revenue reversal. For the acquisition and disposition services, compensation only occurs if the transaction takes place, and the amount of compensation is dependent upon the contract price for the transaction. Property acquisition and disposition fees are recognized when we satisfy a performance obligation by acquiring a property or transferring control of a property. These fees are billed subsequent to the acquisition or sale of the property and payment is due thereafter.
The following table summarizes the fee structure for our advisory agreements:
Fee Type

Performance Obligation SatisfiedTiming of PaymentRevenue Recognition
Acquisition FeePoint in time (upon close of transaction)In cash upon close of transactionRevenue is recognized based on a percentage of the contract purchase price, including acquisition expensesRecurring fees include asset management fees and any debt.

Asset Management Fee and Subordinated ParticipationOver timeMonthly, in cash and/or ownership unitsBecause each increment of service is distinct, although substantially the same, revenue is recognized at the end of each reporting period based on a percentage of the cost of assets underproperty management or the applicable NAV.fees.
In addition to the fees listed above, our management company contracts include the potential for additional revenues if certain market conditions are in place or certain events take place. We have not recognized revenue related to these fees, nor will we until it is no longer highly probable that there would be a material reversal of revenue.
Property Management Agreements—Under our property management agreements, we earn revenue for managing day-to-day activities at the properties of the Managed Funds, for which we receive a distinct fee based on a set percentage of gross cash receipts each month. Under the property management agreements, we also serve as a leasing agent to the Managed Funds. For each new lease, lease renewal, and expansion we receive a distinct fee in the form of a leasing commission.


Leasing commissions are recognized at lease execution and are dependent on the terms of the lease. Additionally, we assist in overseeing the construction of various improvements for Managed Funds, for which we receive a distinct fee based on a set percentage of total project cost calculated upon completion of construction. Because both parties in these contracts can cancel upon 30 days’ notice without penalties, their term is considered month-to-month.
The wide variety of duties as the property manager within these contracts makes determining the performance obligations within the contracts a matter of judgment. We have concluded that each of the separately disclosed fee types in the contracts, property management, leasing, and construction management, represents a separate performance obligation within the contract.
Due to the nature of the services being provided under the property management agreements, each performance obligation within the contract has a variable consideration component. However, due to the month-to-month term of these contracts, any uncertainty regarding the amounts to be earned over the contract term is resolved by the end of that month. As a result, we can reliably calculate the amount of the consideration to be recognized with regards to each performance obligation each month.
All property management agreements have terms as follows:

OrganizationalOrganization and Offering Costs—Under the terms of the advisory agreement,one of our Management Agreements, we have incurred organizationalorganization and offering costs related to PECO III, allIII’s private placement and public offering since 2017. In June 2019, PECO III’s Board of Directors approved the suspension of the public offering, effective June 14, 2019. In connection with the suspension, we reduced our organization and offering cost receivable to the contractually obligated amount as of June 30, 2019, which currently areresulted in a reduction of $2.3 million to Accounts Receivable - Affiliates on our consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, we had receivables for organization and offering costs of $2.5 million and $4.5 million, respectively, which were recorded in Accounts Receivable - Affiliates on our consolidated balance sheets.
In addition to organization and offering costs, we have receivables related to Management Agreements from related parties of $0.9 million and $0.6 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. These amounts were recorded in Accounts Receivable - Affiliates on the consolidated balance sheets. We have charged PECO III organizational and offering costs related to both its private placement and public offering, which were approximately $4.2 million and $2.0 million as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.
During the public offering period for PECO III we will receive a contingent advisor payment of 2.15% of the contract purchase price of each property or other real estate investment it acquires. This reimbursement is intended to allow us to recoup a portion of the dealer manager fees and organizational and offering expenses advanced by PECO III’s advisor, in which we have a 75% interest. Therefore, this reimbursement shall not exceed the amount of organizational and offering expenses and dealer manager fees outstanding at the time of closing for the acquired property.
The initial $4.5 million we may incur to fund organizational and offering expenses related to the PECO III public offering, shall be retained by PECO III until the termination of its public offering, at which time such amount shall be paid.



13. RELATED PARTY EXPENSE
Economic Dependency—Prior to the completion of the PELP transaction, we were dependent on Phillips Edison NTR LLC (“PE-NTR”), Phillips Edison & Company Ltd. (the “Property Manager”), and their respective affiliates for certain services that were essential to us, including asset acquisition and disposition decisions, asset management, operating and leasing of our properties, and other general and administrative responsibilities. Upon closing of the transaction in October 2017, our management structure became internalized and our relationship with PE-NTR and the Property Manager was acquired. As a result, we no longer pay the fees listed below and had no outstanding unpaid amounts related to those fees as of September 30, 2018 or December 31, 2017.
Advisory Agreement—PE-NTR and a previous advisor were entitled to specified fees and expenditure reimbursements for certain services, including managing our day-to-day activities and implementing our investment strategy under advisory agreements, as follows:

Other Related Party MattersUnder the terms of the advisory agreement, we have incurred organizational and offering costs related to PECO III. A portion of those costs were incurred by Griffin Capital CorporationCompany, LLC (“Griffin sponsor”), a co-sponsor of PECO III. The Griffin sponsor owns a 25% interest, and we own a 75% interest, in the PECO III advisor. A portion of organization and offering costs was incurred by the Griffin sponsor. In connection with the suspension of PECO III’s advisor.public offering, we have reduced our organization and offering cost payable to the contractually obligated amount as of June 30, 2019, which resulted in a $0.4 million reduction to Accounts Payable and Other Liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. This reduction, coupled with the $2.3 million reduction to Accounts Receivable - Affiliates, resulted in a net increase in expense of $1.9 million recorded in Other Impairment Charges in our consolidated statements of operations. As such, $1.0 million of the receivable we have from PECO III, is$0.9 million and $1.2 million were reimbursable to the Griffin sponsor as of June 30, 2019 and isDecember 31, 2018, respectively, and were recorded in Accounts Payable - Affiliatesand Other Liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.
Upon completionPECO Air L.L.C. (“PECO Air”), an entity in which Mr. Edison, our Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and President, owns a 50% interest, owns an airplane that we use for business purposes in the course of our operations. We paid approximately $0.2 million to PECO Air for use of its airplane for the PELP transaction,three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018. For the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, we assumed PELP’s obligation aspaid $0.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively.
We are the limited guarantor for up to $200 million, capped at $50 million in most instances, of NRP’s debt.debt for our NRP joint venture.

Additionally, as a part of the GRP I joint venture, GRP I assumed from us a $175 million mortgage loan for which we assumed the obligation of limited guarantor. Our guarantee is limited to being the non-recourse carveout guarantor and the environmental indemnitor. We entered into a separate agreement with Northwestern Mutual in which we agree to apportion any potential liability under this guaranty between us and them based on our respective ownership percentages.

14.15. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The following describes the methods we use to estimate the fair value of our financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities: 
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Accounts Receivable, and Accounts Payable—We consider the carrying values of these financial instruments to approximate fair value because of the short period of time between origination of the instruments and their expected realization.
Real Estate Investments—The purchase prices of the investment properties, including related lease intangible assets and liabilities, were allocated at estimated fair value based on Level 3 inputs, such as discount rates, capitalization rates, comparable sales, replacement costs, income and expense growth rates, and current market rents and allowances as determined by management.
Debt Obligations—We estimate the fair value of our debt by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at rates currently offered for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities by our lenders using Level 3 inputs. The discount rates used approximate current lending rates for loans or groups of loans with similar maturities and credit quality, assuming the debt is outstanding through maturity and considering the debt’s collateral (if applicable). We have utilized market information, as available, or present value techniques to estimate the amounts required to be disclosed.

The estimated faircarrying value of impaired real estate assets may have subsequently increased or decreased after the earn-out is presented in Accounts Payable and Other Liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. We will continuemeasurement date due to estimate the fair value of this earn-out liability at each reporting date during the contingency period and record any changes on our consolidated statements of operations.capital improvements, depreciation, or sale.
Earn-out—The terms of the PELP transaction include an earn-out structure with an opportunity for up to an additional 12.5 million OP units to be issued to PELP as additional consideration if certain milestones are achieved. The milestones are related to a liquidity event for our stockholders and fundraising targets in PECO III, of which PELP was a co-sponsor.
We estimate the fair value of this liability using weighted-average probabilities of likely outcomes. These estimates require us to make various assumptions about future share prices, timing of liquidity events, equity raise projections, and other items that are unobservable and are considered Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. In calculating the fair value of this liability, we have determined that the most likely range of potential outcomes includes a possibility of no additional OP units issued as well as up to 6 million out of the maximum 12.5 million units being issued.
Derivative Instruments—As of SeptemberJune 30, 20182019 and December 31, 2017,2018, we had interest rate swaps that fixed LIBOR on portions of our unsecured term loan facilities. For a more detailed discussion of these cash flow hedges, see Note 8.
All interest rate swap agreements are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The fair values of interest rate swaps are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts (or payments)


and the discounted expected variable cash payments (or receipts). The variable cash payments (or receipts) are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves.
To comply with the provisions of ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, 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 contracts 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.
Although we determined that the significant inputs used to value our derivatives fell within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with our counterparties and our own credit risk utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by us and our counterparties. However, as of SeptemberJune 30, 20182019 and December 31, 2017,2018, we have assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of our derivative positions and have determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives. As a result, we have determined that our derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Nonrecurring Fair Value MeasurementsEarn-out—In connection with the PELP transaction, the Company entered into a contribution agreement (the “Contribution Agreement”), dated as of May 18, 2017, with the Operating Partnership and the contributors listed therein. The Contribution Agreement established an earn-out structure by which PELP was given the opportunity to earn a maximum of 12.5 million additional OP units if certain milestones related to (i) fundraising in the investment management business, and (ii) the timing and valuation related to a liquidity event for PECO, were achieved by certain dates. The liquidity event earn-out provisions provided, in relevant part, that the contributors would have the right to receive a minimum of three million and a maximum of five million OP units as contingent consideration if a “liquidity event” (as defined in the Contribution Agreement) was successfully achieved by the Company by December 31, 2019. On March 12, 2019, the Company entered into an amendment to the Contribution Agreement (“Amendment”). Pursuant to the terms of the Amendment, the initial liquidity earn-out term has been extended by two years through December 31, 2021 and the threshold for the maximum payout of five million OP units has been raised to $11.20 per share from $10.20 per share.
We estimate the fair value of this liability using weighted-average probabilities of likely outcomes. These estimates require us to make various assumptions about future share prices, timing of liquidity events, equity raise projections, and other items that are unobservable and are considered Level 3 inputs in the fair value hierarchy. In calculating the fair value of this liability, we have determined that the most likely range of potential outcomes includes a possibility of no additional OP units issued as well as up to five million out of the maximum 12.5 million units being issued.


The following table presents a reconciliation of the change in the earn-out liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs (in thousands):

Real Estate Asset Impairment—Our real estate assets are measured and recognized at fair value less costs to sell on a nonrecurring basis dependent upon when we determine an impairment has occurred. InDuring the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, we impaired real estate assets that were under contract beingor actively marketed for sale at a disposition price that was less than carrying value, or had other operational impairment indicators.

We determined that these valuationsvaluation to fall under Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. One real estate asset impaired during

15. SEGMENT INFORMATION
As of September 30, 2018, we operated through two business segments: Owned Real Estate and Investment Management. Prior to the completion ofCorporate Intangible Asset Impairment—In connection with the PELP transaction, we acquired a corporate intangible asset consisting of in-place management contracts. We evaluate our corporate intangible asset for impairment when a triggering event occurs, or circumstances change, that indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. For the three months ended June 30, 2019, the suspension of the PECO III public offering constituted a triggering event for further review of the corporate intangible asset’s fair value compared to its carrying value.
We estimate the fair value of the corporate intangible asset using a discounted cash flow model, leveraging certain Level 3 inputs. The evaluation of corporate intangible assets for potential impairment requires management to exercise significant judgment and to make certain assumptions. The assumptions utilized in October 2017,the evaluation include future cash flows and a discount rate. For our most recent impairment test for the corporate intangible asset during the three months ended June 30, 2019, we only operated throughused a discount rate of 19% in our discounted cash flow model.
Based on this analysis, we concluded the Owned Real Estate segment.carrying value exceeded the estimated fair value of the corporate intangible asset, and an impairment charge of $7.8 million was recorded in Other Impairment Charges on the consolidated statements of operations. As a result we did not report any segment disclosures forof this impairment, the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017. We generate revenues and Segment Profit as follows:
Owned Real Estate: Our business objective is to own and operate well-occupied grocery-anchored shopping centers that generate cash flows to support distributions to our shareholders with the potential for capital appreciation. We typically invest in neighborhood shopping centers (generally containing less than 125,000 leasable square feet) located in attractive demographic markets throughout the United States where our management believes our fully integrated operating platform can add value. Through this segment, we own a diversified portfolio of shopping centers subject to long-term net leases with creditworthy tenants in the grocery, retail, restaurant, and service industries. As of September 30, 2018, we owned 233 properties.
Investment Management: Through this segment, we are responsible for managing the day-to-day affairsestimated remaining future amortization of the Managed Funds, identifyingmanagement contracts is as follows: $0.7 million in 2019, $1.4 million in 2020, $1.4 million in 2021, and making acquisitions and investments on their behalf, maintaining and operating their real properties, and recommending an approach for providing investors of the Managed Funds with liquidity. We generate revenues by providing asset management and property management services, such as revenues from leasing, acquisition, construction, and disposition services (see Note 12).


Our chief operating decision makers rely primarily on Segment Profit and similar measures to make decisions regarding allocating resources and assessing segment performance. We allocate certain operating expenses, such as employee-related costs and benefits, to our segments. Items not directly attributable to our Owned Real Estate or Investment Management segments are allocated to corporate general and administrative expenses, which is a reconciling item. The table below compares Segment Profit for each of our operating segments and reconciles total Segment Profit to Net Loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 (in thousands):

Overview
We were formed as a Maryland corporation in 2009,are an internally-managed REIT and elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2010. We are one of the nation’s largest owners and operators of market-leading, grocery-anchored shopping centers. The majority of our revenues are lease revenues derived from our owned real estate investments. Additionally, we operate a third-partyan investment management business thatproviding property management and advisory services to approximately $725 million of third-party assets. This business provides comprehensive real estate and asset management services to (i) PECO III, a non-traded publicly registered REIT; (ii) three institutional joint ventures; and (iii) one private fund (collectively, the Managed Funds.“Managed Funds”).
Proposed REIT II MergerIn JulyNovember 2018, through our direct or indirect subsidiaries, we entered into a Merger Agreement, pursuantjoint venture with Northwestern Mutual. At formation, we contributed or sold 17 grocery-anchored shopping centers with a fair value of approximately $359 million to whichthe new joint venture, GRP I. GRP I also assumed a portfolio loan from us as part of this transaction. In exchange, we will mergereceived a 15% ownership interest in GRP I and cash of $161.8 million. For a more detailed discussion, see Note 6.
In November 2018, we completed the Merger with REIT II, a public non-traded REIT that was advised and we will continue as the surviving corporation,managed by us, in a 100% stockstock-for-stock transaction valued at approximately $1.9 billion. To complete the proposed Merger, we will issue 2.04 shares of our common stock in exchange for each issued and outstanding share of REIT II common stock, which is equivalent to $22.54 per share based on our most recent EVPS of $11.05. The exchange ratio is based onAs a thorough review of the relative valuation of each entity, including factoring in our growing investment management business as well as each company’s transaction costs. REIT II’s outstanding debt of approximately $800.0 million is expected to be refinanced or assumed by us at closing under the termsresult of the Merger, Agreement.
We expect the Merger to create meaningful operationalwe acquired 86 properties and financial benefits, including:
Materially Improve Portfolio while Maintaining Exclusive Grocery Focus -The Merger will resulta 20% equity interest in NRP, a portfolio comprising approximately 320 grocery-anchored shopping centers withjoint venture that owned 13 properties. For a more than 36 million square feet located in 33 states with an emphasis on necessity-based retailers, which have proven to be internet resistant and recession resilient. This institutional-quality portfolio has higher occupancy rates, higher annualized base rent (“ABR”) per square foot, and improved demographics on a pro forma basis.
Increase Size, Scale, and Market Prominence -Given our enhanced size, scale, and portfolio demographics, the combined company will have improved access to the capital markets, which can be used to support strategic investments to drive future growth opportunities.
Actively Position Us for Liquidity -This Merger is an important step towards a full cycle liquidity event for shareholders.
Improve Earnings Quality and Maintain Distribution Coverage - We expect the Merger to increase the percentage of earnings from real estate. Real estate earnings are more highly valued in the public equity markets than management fee income, given the long-term, recurring nature of owning and operating real estate. We estimate that pro forma Funds from Operations (“FFO”) for the combined company will exceed pro forma distributions.


Maintain Healthy Leverage Ratio and Strong Balance Sheet - The combined company’s leverage ratio is expected to improve on a net debt/total enterprise value basis. Our fixed-rate percentage of debt remains stable on a pro forma basis compared to prior to the Merger.
Accelerate Strategy to Simplify Business Model - We expect to realize the synergies of operating a combined enterprise that remains focused on driving shareholder value and expect a seamless integration process as our management company has overseen REIT II since inception.

Based on current market base rental rates, we continue to believe we will achieve an overall positive increase in our average ABR for expiring leases. However, changes in base rental income associated with individual signed leases on comparable spaces may be positive or negative, and we can provide no assurance that the base rents on new leases will continue to increase from current levels.

Portfolio TenancyPrior to the acquisition of a property, we assess the suitability of the grocery-anchor tenant and other tenants in light of our investment objectives, namely, preserving capital and providing stable cash flows for distributions. Generally, we assess the strength of the tenant by consideration of company factors, such as its financial strength and market share in the geographic area of the property, as well as location-specific factors, such as the store’s sales, local competition, and demographics. When assessing the tenancy of the non-anchor space at the property, we consider the tenant mix at each property in light of our portfolio, the proportion of national and national-franchise tenants, the creditworthiness of specific


tenants, and the timing of lease expirations. When evaluating non-national tenancy, we attempt to obtain credit enhancements to leases, which typically come in the form of deposits and/or guarantees from one or more individuals.
We define national tenants as those tenants that operate in at least three states. Regional tenants are defined as those tenants that have at least three locations. The following charts present the composition of our portfolio, including our wholly-owned properties and the prorated portion of those owned through our joint ventures, by tenant type as of SeptemberJune 30, 2018:2019:

Results of Operations
Segment information—As partDue to the timing of the PELP transaction we acquired PELP’s third-party investment management business. Prior to the completionclosing of the transaction, we were externally-managed, and our only reportable segment wasMerger with REIT II, there is no financial data included related to the aggregated operatingacquired properties in our results of our owned real estate. Therefore, there is no data availableoperations prior to October 4, 2017, for the Investment Management segment for comparative purposes. For more detail regarding our segments, see Note 15.
Segment Profit, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, represents revenues less property operating, real estate tax, and general and administrative expenses thatits closing on November 16, 2018. The variances to 2018 are attributable to our reportable segments. We use Segment Profit to evaluate the results of our segments and believe that this measure provides a useful comparison of our revenues based on the source of those revenues and the expenses that are directlyprimarily related to them. However, Segment Profit should not be viewed as an alternative to results prepared in accordance with GAAP.the Merger unless otherwise stated.

$1.3 million decrease related to the change in presentation of real estate tax payments paid directly by tenants. The adoption of ASC 842, which requires lessors to exclude from variable payments all costs paid by a lessee directly to a third party, precludes our recognition of real estate tax payments made by tenants directly to third parties as follows:

$4.4 million increase related to the 76 properties and management company acquired from PELP
Change related to our properties acquired before January 1, 2017
Change related to properties acquired after December 31, 2016, exclusive of the PELP transaction, net of properties disposed

$0.5 million income related to other non-recurring income associated with property acquisitions;
$1.0 million expense from our unconsolidated joint ventures, primarily due to the amortization of basis adjustments as a result of our Merger with REIT II; and
$0.3 million expense related to state and local income taxes.
$1.3 million expense, net during the six months ended June 30, 2018 was primarily attributable to $1.5a $1.5 million expense related to an increase in the fair value of our earn-out liability in 2018 (see Note 14), as well as outparcel sales in 2017.liability.



Leasing Activity—The average rent per square foot and cost of executing leases fluctuates based on the tenant mix, size of the space, and lease term. Leases with national and regional tenants generally require a higher cost per square foot than those with local tenants. However, such tenants will also pay for a longer term. As we continue to attract more of these national and regional tenants, our costs to lease may increase.

The cost of executing new leases, renewals, and options includes leasing commissions, tenant improvement costs, landlord work, and tenant concessions. The costs associated with landlord improvements are excludedwork for repositioning and redevelopment projects are excluded, if any.
(4)(5) 
A comparable lease is a lease that is executed for the exact same space (location and square feet) in which a tenant was previously located. For a lease to be considered comparable, it must have been executed within 365 days from the earlier of legal possession or the day the prior tenant physically vacated the space.
(5)(6) 
The comparable rent spread compares the first year ABRpercentage increase (or decrease) of a new lease overor renewal leases (excluding options) to the last year ABR of the priorexpiring lease of a unit that was occupied within the past twelve12 months.
(6)(7) 
The portfolio retention rate is calculated by dividing (a) total square feet of retained tenants with current period lease expirations by (b) the square feet of leases expiring during the period.

Non-GAAP Measures
Pro Forma Same-Center Net Operating Income (“NOI”)—Same-Center NOI represents the NOI for the properties that were owned and operational for the entire portion of both comparable reporting periods. For purposes of evaluating Same-Center NOI on a comparative basis, and in light of the PELP transaction, we are presenting Pro Forma Same-Center NOI, which is Same-Center NOI on a pro forma basis as if the transactionMerger had occurred on January 1, 2017.2018. This perspective allows us to evaluate Same-Center NOI growth over a comparable period. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2018,2019, we had 221291 same-center properties, including 7285 same-center properties acquired in the PELP transaction.Merger. Pro Forma Same-Center NOI is not necessarily indicative of what actual Same-Center NOI and growth would have been if the PELP transactionMerger had occurred on January 1, 2017,2018, nor does it purport to represent Same-Center NOI and growth for future periods.
Pro Forma Same-Center NOI highlights operating trends such as occupancy rates, rental rates, and operating costs on properties that were operational for both comparable periods. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating Same-Center NOI, and accordingly, our Pro Forma Same-Center NOI may not be comparable to other REITs.
Pro Forma Same-Center NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance since it does not reflect the operations of our entire portfolio, nor does it reflect the impact of general and administrative expenses, acquisition expenses, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, other income, or the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties that could materially impact our results from operations.

Funds from Operations (“FFO”) and Modified Funds from Operations (“MFFO”)—FFO is a non-GAAP performance financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) defines FFO as net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property and gains (or losses) from change in control, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for impairment losses on depreciable real estate and impairments of in-substance real estate investments in investees that are driven by measurable decreases in the fair value of the depreciable real estate held by the unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect funds from operationsFFO on the same basis. We calculate FFO Attributable to Stockholders and Convertible Noncontrolling Interests in a manner consistent with the NAREIT definition, with an additional adjustment made for noncontrolling interests that are not convertible into common stock.
MFFO is an additional performance financial measure used by us as FFO includes certain non-comparable items that affect our performance over time. MFFO excludes the following items:
acquisition and transaction expenses;
straight-line rent amounts, both income and expense;
amortization of above- or below-market intangible lease assets and liabilities;
amortization of discounts and premiums on debt investments;
gains or losses from the early extinguishment of debt;
gains or losses on the extinguishment of derivatives, except where the trading of such instruments is a fundamental attribute of our operations;
gains or losses related to fair value adjustments for derivatives not qualifying for hedge accounting;
gains or losses related to fair value adjustments for our earn-out liability;
certain other one-time costs; and
adjustments related to the above items for joint ventures and noncontrolling interests and unconsolidated entities in the application of equity accounting.
We believe that MFFO is helpful in assisting management and investors with the assessment of the sustainability of operating performance in future periods. We believe it is more reflective of our core operating performance and provides an additional measure to compare our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that may cause short-term fluctuations in net income (loss) but have no impact on cash flows.
FFO, FFO Attributable to Stockholders and Convertible Noncontrolling Interests, and MFFO should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss) or income (loss) from continuing operations under GAAP, as an indication of our liquidity, nor as an indication of funds available to cover our cash needs, including our ability to fund distributions. MFFO may not be a useful measure of the impact of long-term operating performance on value if we do not continue to operate our business plan in the manner currently contemplated.
Accordingly, FFO, FFO Attributable to Stockholders and Convertible Noncontrolling Interests, and MFFO should be reviewed in connection with other GAAP measurements, and should not be viewed as more prominent measures of performance than net income (loss) or cash flows from operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our FFO, FFO Attributable to Stockholders and Convertible Noncontrolling Interests, and MFFO, as presented, may not be comparable to amounts calculated by other REITs.


The following table presents our calculation of FFO, FFO Attributable to Stockholders and Convertible Noncontrolling Interests, and MFFO and provides additional information related to our operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 (in thousands)thousands, except per share amounts):

Liquidity and Capital Resources
General—Aside from standard operating expenses, we expect our principal cash demands to be for:
investments in real estate, including the anticipated Merger with REIT II;cash distributions to stockholders;
capital expenditures and leasing costs;
investments in real estate;
redevelopment and repositioning projects;
repurchases of common stock;
cash distributions to stockholders; and
principal and interest payments on our outstanding indebtedness.


We expect our primary sources of liquidity to be:
operating cash flows;
available, unrestricted cash and cash equivalents;proceeds received from dispositions of properties;
reinvested distributions, which are used for share repurchases;distributions;
proceeds from debt financings, including borrowings under our unsecured credit facility;
distributions received from joint ventures; and
proceeds from real estate dispositions.

Operating Activities—Our net cash provided by operating activities was primarily impacted by the following:
Property operations—Most of our operating cash comes from rental and tenant recovery income and is offset by property operating expenses, real estate taxes, and property-specific general and administrative costs. Our change in cash flows from property operations primarily results from owning a larger portfolio year-over-year as well as a 5.1% increase in Pro Forma Same-Center NOI.
result of the Merger with REIT II.
Fee and management income—Following the completion of the PELP transaction, weWe also generate operating cash from our third-party investment management business, offset bypursuant to various management and advisory agreements between us and the operational costs of the business.Managed Funds. Our fee and management income increased bywas $26.86.3 million for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019, a decrease of $11.5 million as compared to the same period in 2018., primarily due to fee and management income no longer received from the properties acquired in the Merger with REIT II, offset by increased fee and management income as a result of our joint ventures.
Cash paid for interest—During the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20182019, we paid $49.2$44.2 million for interest, an increase of $22.7$11.7 million over the same period in 20172018. This increase was largely due to $464.5 million of debt assumed and new debt entered into in connection with the Merger with REIT II.
Working capital—During the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20182019, aside from timing differences, the decreaseincrease in cash flows related to 2017used for working capital was primarily driven by higher prepaid PELP acquisition costs, not incurred in 2018,expenses, partially offset by deferredhigher third party payables as a result of owning a larger portfolio.
Accounting for lease costs—The adoption of ASC 842 has caused us to expense as incurred significant lease origination costs anticipated to be capitalized relatedwhich were previously capitalized. Such origination costs are now included as operating expenses and are therefore included as a reduction of our cash flows from operations rather than classified as capital expenditures on the statements of cash flows in the current period. As a result of the adoption, we recognized an additional $1.9 million of lease origination costs as operating cash outflows during the six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to the Mergersame period in 2018.2018.
Investing Activities—Our net cash used in investing activities was primarily impacted by the following:
Real estate acquisitions and dispositions—During the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20182019, we acquired twoone shopping centersproperty and one outparcel for a total cash outlay of $31.349.9 million. During, as compared to one property acquisition during the same period in 20172018, we acquired six shopping centers for a total cash outlay of $111.79.2 million. During the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20182019, we disposed of fivesix properties for a totalnet cash inflow of $44.347.9 million. We did not have any, as compared to two property dispositions for a net cash inflow of $13.3 million during the same period in 20172018.
Capital expenditures—We invest capital into leasing our properties and maintaining or improving the condition of our properties. During the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20182019, cash usedwe paid $27.2 million for capital expenditures, increased byan increase of $6.89.9 million over the same period in 20172018 as a result of, primarily driven by tenant improvements due to higher leasing activity, and an increase in building improvements due to our larger portfolio. Additionally, we have invested in other value-added redevelopment and new development in our existing centers.
Financing Activities—Net cash (used in) provided byused in financing activities werewas primarily impacted by the following:
Debt borrowings and payments—Cash from financing activities is primarily affected by inflows from borrowings and outflows from payments on debt. As our debt obligations mature, we intend to refinance the remaining balance, if possible, or pay off the balances at maturity using proceeds from operations and/or corporate-level debt. During the six months endedJune 30, 2019, our cash from borrowings decreased by $47.7 million as a result of an increase in cash flows received from the sale of properties as well as higher cash flows from operations. In January 2018,May 2019, we executed a $65$60 million delayed draw feature on one of our term loans, that originated in October 2017 and used the proceeds of which were used to increase availability onto pay down our revolving credit facility. During thefacility balance. As of nine months endedSeptemberJune 30, 20182019, we had no outstanding balance on our net borrowings decreased by $103.5 million as a result of higher cash flows from operations and fewer acquisitions than the same period in 2017.revolver.


Distributions to stockholders and OP unit holders—There was a large increase in distributions paid to OP unit holders in 2018 as a result of issuing 39.4 million OP units in the PELP transaction. Cash used for distributions to common stockholders additionallyand OP unit holders increased$22.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018 primarily due to the temporary suspensionincrease in the number of common stockholders as a result of the DRIP for the month of July 2018 in connection with the proposed Merger; therefore all DRIP participants received their July 2018 distribution in cash rather than stock. The DRIP resumed in August 2018.Merger.
Share repurchases—Our SRP provides an opportunity for stockholders to have shares of common stock repurchased, subject to certain restrictions and limitations (see Note 1011). Cash outflows for share repurchases increaseddecreased by $5.632.7 million due to the timing of our standard share repurchase in the third quarter of 2019 as compared to the second quarter of 2018.


Distributions—Activity related to distributions to our common stockholders and OP unit holders for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20182019 and 2017,2018, was as follows (in thousands):

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Non-GAAP Measures - Funds from Operations and Modified Funds from Operations for the definition of FFO, for information regarding why we present FFO, as well as for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to Net Loss.
We paid distributions monthly and expect to continue paying distributions monthly (subject to Board authorization) unless our results of operations, our general financial condition, general economic conditions, or other factors, as determined by our Board, make it imprudent to do so. The timing and amount of distributions is determined by our Board and is influenced in part by our intention to comply with REIT requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. 
To maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must make aggregate annual distributions to our stockholders of at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (which is computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction or net capital gain, and which does not necessarily equal net income (loss) as calculated in accordance with GAAP). We generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the income that we distribute to our stockholders each year due to meeting the REIT qualification requirements. However, we may be subject to certain state and local taxes on our income, property, or net worth and to federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed income.


We have not established a minimum distribution level, and our charter does not require that we make distributions to our stockholders.

From time to time, we are party to legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of our business. We are not currently involved in any legal proceedings for which we are not covered by our liability insurance or the outcome is reasonably likely to have a material impact on our results of operations or financial condition, nor are we aware of any such legal proceedings contemplated by governmental authorities.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
For a listing ofThe following risk factor supplements the risk factors associated with investingset forth in us, please see Item 1A. Risk Factors in Part I of our 20172018 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SECU.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 30, 2018,13, 2019:
If we continue to pay distributions from sources other than our cash flows from operations, we may not be able to sustain our distribution rate, we may have fewer funds available for investment in properties and other assets, and our stockholders’ overall returns may be reduced.
Our organizational documents permit us to pay distributions from any source without limit (other than those limits set forth under Maryland law). To the extent we continue to fund distributions from borrowings, we will have fewer funds available for investment in Item 1A. Risk Factors in Part II ofreal estate properties and other real estate-related assets, and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q forstockholders’ overall returns may be reduced.
At times, we may need to borrow funds to pay distributions, which could increase our operating costs. Furthermore, if we cannot cover our distributions with cash flows from operations, we may be unable to sustain our distribution rate. For the quartersix months ended June 30, 2018.2019, we paid gross distributions to our common stockholders of $109.6 million, including distributions reinvested through the dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) of $35.0 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2019, our net cash provided by operating activities was $100.1 million, which represents a shortfall of of $9.5 million, or 8.7%, of our distributions paid, while our funds from operations (“FFO”) Attributable to Stockholders and Convertible Noncontrolling Interests were $104.1 million, which represents a shortfall of $5.5 million, or 5.0%, of the distributions paid. The shortfall was funded by proceeds from borrowings. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, we paid distributions of $76.8 million, including distributions reinvested through the DRIP of $24.9 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, our net cash provided by operating activities was $77.8 million, which represents a surplus of $1.0 million, or 1.3%, of our distributions paid, while our FFO was $79.1 million, which represents a surplus of $2.3 million, or 3.0% of our distributions paid.

We currently limit the dollar value and number of shares that may yet be repurchased under the SRP, as described below.in Part II Item 5 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed March 13, 2019. In addition, in August 2019, the SRP was suspended with respect to standard share repurchases.
OurOn August 7, 2019, the Board amended the SRP, may provideadopting the Third Amended and Restated Share Repurchase Program (the “Third Amended SRP”). Under the Third Amended SRP, the repurchase price per share will be equal to the lesser of $10.00 or our most recent EVPS. The Third Amended SRP will become effective 30 days after the date of this filing and the full text of the Third Amended SRP is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
On August 7, 2019, the Board suspended the SRP for standard repurchases. However, we will continue to fulfill repurchases sought upon a limited opportunity for stockholders to havestockholder's death, “qualifying disability,” or “determination of incompetence” in accordance with the terms of the Third Amended SRP.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we repurchased approximately 1.1 million shares of our common stock repurchased, subject to certain restrictions and limitations that are discussed below:
