Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Condensed and Unaudited)

~~March 31,~~
As of and for the period ended June 30, 2021


1. ORGANIZATION

Phillips Edison & Company, Inc. (“we,” the “Company,” “PECO,” “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 are a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) that invests primarily in ~~well-occupied,~~omni-channel grocery-anchored neighborhood and community shopping centers that have a mix of creditworthy national, regional, and local retailers that sell necessity-based goods and services in strong demographic markets throughout the United States. In addition to managing our own shopping centers, our third-party investment management business provides comprehensive real estate and asset management services to two unconsolidated institutional joint ventures, in which we have a partial ownership interest, and one private fund (collectively, the “Managed Funds”) as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, we wholly-owned ~~278~~272 real estate properties. Additionally, we owned ~~a 20% equity interest in Necessity Retail Partners (“NRP”), a joint venture that owned 2 properties, and~~ a 14% interest in Grocery Retail Partners I LLC (“GRP I”), a joint venture that owned 20 properties, and a 20% equity interest in Necessity Retail Partners (“NRP”), a joint venture that owned 2 properties.

On June 18, 2021, our stockholders approved an amendment to our charter (the “Articles of Amendment”) that effected a change of each share of our common stock outstanding at the time the amendment became effective into one share of a newly created class of Class B common stock (the “Recapitalization”). The Articles of Amendment became effective upon filing with, and acceptance by, the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland on July 2, 2021. Unless otherwise indicated, all information in this Form 10-Q disclosure gives effect to the Recapitalization and references to “shares” and per share metrics refer to our common stock and Class B common stock, collectively.

On July 2, 2021, our board of directors (the “Board”) approved an amendment to our articles of incorporation to effect a one-for-three reverse stock split. Concurrent with the reverse split, the Operating Partnership enacted a one-for-three reverse split of its outstanding Operating Partnership units (“OP units”). Unless otherwise indicated, the information in this Form 10-Q gives effect to the reverse stock and OP unit splits (Note 9).

On July 19, 2021, we closed our underwritten initial public offering (“underwritten IPO”), through which we offered 17.0 million shares of a new class of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, at an initial price of $28.00 per share, pursuant to a registration statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on Form S-11 (File No. 333-255846), as amended. These shares are listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the trading symbol “PECO”. The underwriters have since exercised a 30-day option to purchase additional shares of common stock to cover overallotments, and, accordingly, on August 2, 2021 we settled the sale of an additional 2.55 million shares, with gross proceeds to us of $71.4 million.


2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Set forth below is a summary of the significant accounting estimates and policies that management believes are important to the preparation of our condensed consolidated interim financial statements. 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, remaining hold period of assets, recoverable amounts of receivables, and other fair value measurement assessments required for the preparation of the consolidated interim financial statements. As a result, these estimates are subject to a degree of uncertainty.

Beginning in 2020, the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic has caused significant disruption to our operations. All temporarily closed tenants have since been permitted to ~~reopen. Some may be limiting the~~reopen; however, certain of our tenants have permanently closed. We have backfilled a number of ~~customers allowed in their stores, or have modified their operations in other ways that may impact their profitability, either as a result of government mandates or self-elected efforts~~these spaces, and continue to ~~reduce the spread of COVID-19. These actions, as well as the~~work on backfilling any remaining vacancies. The continuing economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic could result in increased permanent store ~~closures. In addition to the permanent~~ closures, ~~that have occurred in our portfolio, this could~~ reduce the demand for leasing space in our shopping centers, ~~and~~and/or result in a decline in occupancy and rental revenues in our real estate portfolio. Because of the adverse economic conditions that have occurred as a result of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and ~~the ongoing~~any remaining uncertainty related to the pandemic, it is possible that the estimates and assumptions that have been utilized in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements could change significantly. All of this activity impacts our estimates around the collectibility of revenue and valuation of real estate assets, goodwill and other intangible assets, and certain liabilities, among others.

There were no changes to our significant accounting policies during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31, 2021.~~June 30, 2021, except for those discussed below. For a full summary of our accounting policies, refer to our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K as originally filed with the ~~U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”)~~SEC on March 12, 2021.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation—The accompanying condensed 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, 2020, which are included in our 2020 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 six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 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.

~~Certain amounts~~Underwritten IPO Costs—Deferred underwritten IPO costs are currently recorded as Other Assets, Net on our consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2021, and will be offset against underwritten IPO proceeds and reclassified as a component of APIC on the consolidated balance sheets upon the consummation of the offering. Costs incurred that were related to our underwritten IPO activities but were not directly related to our equity raise were not capitalized and are included as transaction costs, currently in ~~prior periods have been reclassified to conform to current presentation.~~Other (Expense) Income, Net on our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) (“consolidated statements of operations”).

Income Taxes—Our consolidated financial statements include the operations of wholly-owned subsidiaries that have jointly elected to be treated as Taxable REIT Subsidiaries and are subject to U.S. federal, state, and local income taxes at regular corporate tax rates. We recognized an insignificant amount of federal, state, and local income tax expense for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and 2020, and we retain a full valuation allowance for our deferred tax asset. All income tax

amounts are included in Other (Expense) Income, Net on ~~the~~our consolidated statements of ~~operations and comprehensive income (loss) (“consolidated statements of operations”).~~operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements—On January 7, 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-01 to amend the scope of the guidance in ASU 2020-04 on facilitation of the effects of reference rate reform on financial reporting. Specifically, the amendments in ASU 2021-01 clarify that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 848, Reference Rate Reform for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. We adopted ASU 2021-01 upon its issuance and the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Reclassifications—The following line items on our consolidated statement of cash flows for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 were reclassified to conform to current year presentation:

•Return on Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures was listed on a separate line from Other Assets, Net; and

•Net Change in Credit Facility was separated into two lines, Proceeds from Revolving Credit Facility and Payments on Revolving Credit Facility.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we executed payment plans with our tenants. As of ~~April 20,~~June 30, 2021, we ~~have $5.2~~had $5.4 million of outstanding payment plans with our tenants, ~~and~~which represented approximately 2.1% of rental income during the six months ended June 30, 2021. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, we had recorded an immaterial amount of rent abatements ~~totaling~~related to 2021 missed charges. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded approximately ~~$4.4~~$0.5 million ~~during 2021. These payment plans and~~of rent abatements related to missed 2021 charges, which represented ~~approximately 1.4% and 1.1%~~less than 1% of rental income for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

No single tenant comprised 7% or more of our ~~wholly-owned portfolio’s~~aggregate annualized base rent (“ABR”), respectively. As of April 20, 2021, approximately 85% of payments are scheduled to be received by December 31, 2021 for all executed payment plans, and the weighted-average remaining term over which we expect to receive payment on executed payment plans is approximately twelve months. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we had $4.8 million and $2.8 million, respectively, in unfavorable monthly revenue adjustments for tenants not considered creditworthy. These amounts include the estimated impact of tenants who have filed for bankruptcy. Revenue for tenants deemed non-creditworthy is only recorded as cash is received.

~~No single tenant comprised 10% or more of our aggregate ABR~~ as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, our wholly-owned real estate investments in Florida and California represented ~~12.4%~~12.6% and ~~10.4%~~10.1% of our ABR, respectively. As a result, the geographic concentration of our portfolio makes it particularly susceptible to adverse weather or economic events, including the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, in the Florida and California real estate markets.

7. 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 changes in the fair value of derivatives designated, and that qualify, as cash flow hedges are recorded in AOCI and are subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and 2020, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with certain variable-rate debt. 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 ~~$18.9~~$18.2 million will be reclassified from AOCI as an increase to Interest Expense, Net.

The fair value of the five hedges assumed was $14.7 million and is amortized over the remaining lives of the respective hedges and recorded in Interest Expense, Net in the consolidated statements of operations. The net unamortized amount remaining as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was ~~$4.7~~$4.3 million and $5.0 million, respectively.

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 ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, 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 ~~$43.0~~$39.9 million. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, 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 ~~$43.0~~$39.9 million.


8. 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. Depending on the nature of the environmental matter, the seller of the property, a tenant of the property, and/or another third party may 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.

Captive Insurance—Our captive insurance company, Silver Rock Insurance, Inc. (“Silver Rock”) provides general liability insurance, wind, reinsurance, and other coverage to us and our related-party joint ventures. We capitalize Silver Rock in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements.

Silver Rock established annual premiums based on the past loss experience of the insured properties. An independent third party was engaged to perform an actuarial estimate of projected future claims, related deductibles, and projected future expenses necessary to fund associated risk management programs. Premiums paid to Silver Rock may be adjusted based on these estimates, and such premiums may be reimbursed by tenants pursuant to specific lease terms.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, we had four letters of credit outstanding totaling approximately ~~$8.0~~$9.0 million to provide security for our obligations under Silver Rock’s insurance and reinsurance contracts.

In connection with the reverse stock split, the number of shares of common stock and OP units underlying the outstanding share-based awards was also proportionately reduced. All references to ~~participate~~shares of common stock, number of OP units, and per share data for all periods presented in our consolidated financial statements and notes have been adjusted to reflect the ~~DRIP may choose to invest all or~~reverse split on a ~~portion~~retroactive basis.

~~Stockholders who elect~~common stock, except that (i) we do not intend to ~~participate in~~list our Class B common stock on a national securities exchange, and (ii) upon 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~~six month anniversary of the ~~shares~~listing of our common stock ~~purchased~~for trading on a national securities exchange, or January 15, 2022 (or such earlier date or dates as may be approved by our Board in certain circumstances with ~~reinvested distributions, even though such stockholders have elected not~~respect to ~~receive~~all or any portion of the ~~distributions in cash.~~outstanding shares of our Class B common stock), each share of our Class B common stock will automatically, and without any stockholder action, convert into one share of our listed common stock.

On ~~April 29,~~August 4, 2021, our Board authorized distributions ~~for May 2021~~ to the stockholders of record at the close of business on ~~May 17,~~August 16, 2021, equal to a monthly amount of ~~$0.02833333~~$0.085 per share of common stock. OP unit holders will receive distributions at the same rate as common stockholders. ~~We pay distributions to stockholders and OP unit holders based on monthly record dates, and we expect to pay the May 2021 distributions on June 1, 2021.~~

~~Share Repurchase Program (“SRP”)~~—The 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. The Fourth Amended and Restated Share Repurchase Program (the “Fourth Amended SRP”), which is currently limited to repurchases resulting from the death, qualifying disability, or the declaration of incompetence (“DDI”) of stockholders, has been suspended, and the March 31, 2021 repurchases related to stockholder DDI were not executed. The SRP for both standard and DDI requests will remain suspended until further notice.

Convertible Noncontrolling Interests—As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had approximately ~~40.1~~13.4 million and ~~39.8~~13.3 million outstanding OP units, respectively. Additionally, certain of our outstanding restricted share and performance share awards will result in the issuance of OP units upon vesting in future periods.

Under the terms of the Fourth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership (the “Partnership Agreement”), OP unit holders may elect to exchange their OP units. The Operating Partnership controls the form of the redemption, and may elect to exchange OP units either for shares of our common stock, provided that the OP units have been outstanding for at least one year, or for cash. As the form of redemption for OP units is within our control, the OP units outstanding as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are classified as Noncontrolling Interests within permanent equity on our consolidated balance sheets.

~~During~~The table below is a summary of our OP unit activity for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and 2020 ~~0.1 million~~ (dollars and shares in thousands):

Underwritten IPO Grants—In connection with our underwritten IPO, we issued a total of 0.5 million RSUs and restricted stock awards in the form of time-based stock compensation awards. The shares have a grant price of $28.00 per share and, with the exception of one individual whose award is subject to accelerated vesting provisions, 50% of the shares will vest after 18 months and the remaining 50% will vest after 36 months.

Estimated Value per Share—Prior to our underwritten IPO, on April 29, 2021, our Board increased the estimated value per share (“EVPS”) of our common stock to $31.65 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, 2021. We engaged a third-party valuation firm to provide a calculation of the range in EVPS of our common stock as of March 31, 2021, which reflected certain balance sheet assets and liabilities as of that date. Previously, our EVPS was $26.25, 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, 2020.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan and Share Repurchase Program (“SRP”)—On August 4, 2021, as a result of our underwritten IPO, our Board approved the termination of the DRIP and the SRP. The DRIP has been suspended since April 2021. The SRP, which was limited to repurchases resulting from the death, qualifying disability, or the declaration of incompetence (“DDI”) of stockholders, has been suspended since March 2021, and the SRP for standard repurchases had been suspended since August 2019.


10. 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 Income (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. EPS reflects earnings per common share prior to the Recapitalization.

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 Partnership Agreement.

The impact of these outstanding 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 during the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and 2020.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the earnings per share calculations, restated for prior periods to display the effect of the reverse split, and excluding the effects of the Recapitalization as it occurred after June 30, 2021 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

(1)OP units include units that are convertible into common stock or cash, at the Operating Partnership’s option. The Operating Partnership income or loss attributable to these OP units, which is included as a component of Net ~~Income~~(Income) Loss Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests on the consolidated statements of operations, has been added back in the numerator as these OP units were included in the denominator for all periods presented.

Approximately 0.4 million time-based and 0.9 million performance-based unvested stock awards were outstanding as of June 30, 2020. These securities were anti-dilutive for the three months ended June 30, 2020. As a result, their impact was excluded from the weighted-average common shares used to calculate diluted EPS for that period.

(1)Recurring fees include asset management fees and property management fees.

(2)Transactional revenue includes items such as leasing commissions, construction management fees, and acquisition fees.

(3)Insurance premium income includes amounts for reinsurance from third parties not affiliated with us.

Tax Protection Agreement—Through our Operating Partnership, we are currently party to a tax protection agreement (the “2017 TPA”) with certain partners that contributed property to our Operating Partnership on October 4, 2017, among them certain of our executive officers, including Jeffrey S. Edison, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, under which the Operating Partnership has agreed to indemnify such partners for tax liabilities that could accrue to them personally related to our potential disposition of certain properties within our portfolio. The 2017 TPA will expire on October 4, 2027. On July 19, 2021, we entered into an additional tax protection agreement (the “2021 TPA”) with certain of our executive officers, including Mr. Edison. The 2021 TPA carries a term of four years and will become effective upon the expiration of the 2017 TPA. As of June 30, 2021, the potential “make-whole amount” on the estimated aggregate amount of built-in gain subject to protection under the agreements is approximately $152.6 million. The protection provided under the terms of the 2021 TPA will expire in 2031. We have not recorded any liability related to the 2017 TPA or the 2021 TPA on our consolidated balance sheets for any periods presented, nor recognized any expense since the inception of the 2017 TPA, owing to the fact that any potential liability under the agreements is controlled by us and we will either (i) continue to own and operate the protected properties or (ii) be able to successfully complete Section 1031 Exchanges (unless there is a change in applicable law) or complete other tax-efficient transactions to avoid any liability under the agreements.

Other Related Party Matters—We are the limited guarantor for up to $190 million, capped at $50 million in most instances, of debt for our NRP joint venture. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, the outstanding loan balance related to our NRP joint venture was $32.1 million. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, we were also the limited guarantor of a $175 million mortgage loan ~~for~~secured by GRP I.I properties. Our guaranty infor both ~~cases~~the NRP and GRP I debt is limited to being the non-recourse carveout guarantor and the environmental indemnitor. Further, in both cases, we are also party to an agreement with our institutional joint venture partners in which any potential liability under such guarantees will be apportioned between us and our applicable joint venture partner based on our respective ownership percentages in the applicable joint venture. We have no liability recorded on our consolidated balance sheets for either guaranty as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Additionally, during 2021, we made a cash investment of $3.0 million into a third-party company in exchange for preferred shares of their stock. As part of the investment agreement, the third-party company committed to enter into leases at two of our properties. As of August 5, 2021, we had entered into two leases under the terms of the investment agreement, both of which carry a term of 10 years, over which period we expect to receive contractual rents of $2.6 million in total for both leases.


12. 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.

(1)We record derivative liabilities in Derivative Liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets.

(2)The carrying value of impaired real estate assets may have subsequently increased or decreased after the measurement date due to capital improvements, depreciation, or sale.

Derivative Instruments—As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had interest rate swaps that fixed LIBOR on portions of our unsecured term loan facilities.

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 ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 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.

Earn-out—As part of our acquisition of ~~Phillips Edison Limited Partnership (“PELP”)~~PELP in 2017, an earn-out structure was established which gave PELP the opportunity to earn additional OP units based upon the potential achievement of certain performance targets subsequent to the acquisition. After the expiration of certain provisions in 2019, PELP is now eligible to earn ~~up to 5~~a minimum of 1.0 million and a maximum of approximately 1.7 million OP units as contingent consideration based onupon the timing and valuation of a liquidity event for PECO. Certain of these performance targets are tied to the post-underwritten IPO trading price of our common stock. The number of OP units awarded will vary based on the highest volume weighted average price per share of our common stock over any 30 consecutive trading day period during the 180 days following the underwritten IPO commencement (the “liquidity event price per share”):

•if the liquidity event ~~can occur no later~~price per share is greater than ~~December 31,~~or equal to $33.60, PELP will receive approximately 1.7 million OP units;


PHILLIPS EDISON & COMPANY JUNE 30, 2021 FORM 10-Q									18

Table of Contents

•if the liquidity event price per share is less than $33.60 but greater than or equal to $26.40, PELP will receive a number of OP units equal to (i) 1.0 million plus (ii) the product of (A) approximately 0.7 million and (B) the quotient obtained by dividing the liquidity event price per share in excess of $26.40 by $7.20; or

•if the liquidity event price per share is less than $26.40, PELP will receive 1.0 million OP units.

Prior to the second quarter of 2021, ~~for the maximum shares to be awarded, but can occur as late as December 31, 2023.~~

~~We estimate~~we estimated the fair value of ~~this~~the earn-out liability on a quarterly basis using the Monte Carlo method. ~~This method requires us~~As of June 30, 2021, our underwritten IPO process had commenced and thus the only remaining variable for calculating final amounts to ~~make assumptions about future dividend yields, volatility, and timing and pricing of~~be paid under the earn-out agreement was the liquidity ~~events, which are unobservable and are considered Level 3 inputs in~~event price per share. Therefore, we estimated the fair value ~~hierarchy. A change in these inputs~~of the liability related to the earn-out using a ~~different amount might result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement at~~probability-weighted model to estimate the ~~reporting date.~~liquidity event price per share. In calculating the fair value of this liability as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, we have determined that 1.0 million OP units have been earned and the most likely range of potential outcomes includes a possibility of ~~1000000~~no additional OP units issued as well as up to a maximum of ~~five~~approximately 0.667 million units being issued.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded expense of $2.0 million related to the change in fair value of the earn-out liability. There was 0 change to the fair value of our earn-out liability for the three months ended June 30, 2020. We recorded expense of ~~$16.0~~$18.0 million and income of $10.0 million, respectively, for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 related to changes in the fair value of the earn-out liability. The increase in the fair value of the liability ~~during the three months ended March 31,~~as of June 30, 2021 was attributable to ~~an increase in~~ the ~~EVPS~~commencement of our ~~common stock (as compared with a decrease in EVPS in the comparable prior year period), as described in Note 9,~~underwritten IPO as well as improved market conditions in ~~the first quarter of~~ 2021. The change in fair value for ~~both periods~~each period has been recognized in Other (Expense) Income, Net in the consolidated statements of operations.

Real Estate Asset Impairment—Our real estate assets are measured and recognized at fair value, less costs to sell for held-for-sale properties, on a nonrecurring basis dependent upon when we determine an impairment has occurred. During the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, we impaired ~~an asset~~assets that ~~was~~were under contract at a disposition price that was less than carrying value, or that had other operational impairment indicators. The valuation technique used for the fair value of all impaired real estate assets was the expected net sales proceeds, which we consider to be a Level 2 input in the fair value hierarchy. There were no impairment charges recorded during the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020.

On a quarterly basis, we employ a multi-step approach to assess our real estate assets for possible impairment and record any impairment charges identified. The first step is the identification of potential triggering events, such as significant decreases in occupancy or the presence of large dark or vacant spaces. If we observe any of these indicators for a shopping center, we then perform an additional screen test consisting of a years-to-recover analysis to determine if we will recover the net carrying value of the property over its remaining economic life based upon net operating income (“NOI”) as forecasted for the current year. In the event that the results of this first step indicate a triggering event for a center, we proceed to the second step, utilizing an undiscounted cash flow model for the center to identify potential impairment. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the net book value of the center as of the balance sheet date, we proceed to the third step. In performing the third step, we utilize market data such as capitalization rates and sales price per square foot on comparable recent real estate transactions to estimate fair value of the real estate assets. We also utilize expected net sales proceeds to estimate the fair value of any centers that are actively being marketed for sale. If the estimated fair value of the property is less than the recorded net book value at the balance sheet date, we record an impairment charge.

In addition to these procedures, we also review undeveloped or unimproved land parcels that we own for evidence of impairment and record any impairment charges as necessary. Primary impairment triggers for these land parcels are changes to our plans or intentions with regards to such properties, or planned dispositions at prices that are less than the current carrying values.

Our quarterly impairment procedures have not been altered by the COVID-19 pandemic, as we believe key impairment indicators such as temporary store closings and large dark or vacant spaces will continue to be identified in our review. We have utilized forecasts that incorporate estimated decreases in NOI and cash flows as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic in performing our review procedures for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and 2020. However, it is possible that we could experience unanticipated changes in assumptions that are employed in our impairment review which could impact our cash flows and fair value conclusions. Such unanticipated changes relative to our expectations may include but are not limited to: increases or decreases in the duration or permanence of tenant closures, increases or decreases in collectibility reserves and write-offs, additional capital required to fill vacancies, extended lease-up periods, future closings of large tenants, changes in macroeconomic assumptions such as rate of inflation and capitalization rates, and changes to the estimated timing of disposition of the properties under review.

We recorded the following expense upon impairment of real estate assets (in thousands):

~~Key Performance Indicators and Defined Terms~~


KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS AND DEFINED TERMS

We use certain key performance indicators (“KPIs”), which include both financial and nonfinancial metrics, to measure the performance of our operations. We believe these KPIs, as well as the core concepts and terms defined below, allow our Board, management, and investors to analyze trends around our business strategy, financial condition, and results of operations in a manner that is focused on items unique to the retail real estate industry.

We do not consider our non-GAAP measures ~~included as KPIs~~ to be alternatives to measures ~~calculated~~required in accordance with GAAP. Certain non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance as they may not reflect the operations of our entire portfolio, and they may not reflect the impact of general and administrative expenses, depreciation


PHILLIPS EDISON & COMPANY JUNE 30, 2021 FORM 10-Q									20

Table of Contents

and amortization, interest expense, other income (expense), or the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our ~~properties~~shopping centers that could materially impact our results from operations. Additionally, certain non-GAAP measures should not be considered as an indication of our liquidity, nor as an indication of funds available to cover our cash needs, including our ability to fund distributions, and 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 in the manner currently contemplated. Accordingly, non-GAAP measures 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. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating similar non-GAAP measures, and accordingly, our non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other REITs.

Our KPIs and terminology can be grouped into three key areas:

~~Portfolio~~PORTFOLIO—Portfolio metrics help management to gauge the health of our centers overall and individually.

•Anchor space—We define an anchor space as a space greater than or equal to 10,000 square feet of gross leasable area (“GLA”).

•ABR—We use ABR to refer to the monthly contractual base rent as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 multiplied by twelve months.

•ABR per Square Foot (“PSF”)—This metric is calculated by dividing ABR by leased GLA. Increases in ABR PSF can be an indication of our ability to create rental rate growth in our centers, as well as an indication of demand for our spaces, which generally provides us with greater leverage during lease negotiations.

•~~Inline space—We define an inline space as a space containing less than 10,000 square feet of GLA.~~

•GLA—We use GLA to refer to the total occupied and unoccupied square footage of a building that is available for tenants (whom we refer to as a “Neighbor” or our “Neighbors”) or other retailers to lease.

•Inline space—We define an inline space as a space containing less than 10,000 square feet of GLA.

•Leased Occupancy—This metric is calculated as the percentage of total GLA for which a lease has been signed regardless of whether the lease has commenced or the Neighbor has taken possession. High occupancy is an indicator of demand for our spaces, which generally provides us with greater leverage during lease negotiations.

•Underwritten incremental yield—This reflects the yield we target to generate from a project upon expected stabilization and is calculated as the estimated incremental NOI for a project at stabilization divided by its estimated net project investment. The estimated incremental NOI is the difference between the estimated annualized NOI we target to generate by project upon stabilization and the estimated annualized NOI without the planned improvements. Underwritten incremental yield does not include peripheral impacts, such as lease rollover risk or the impact on the long term value of the property upon sale or disposition. Actual incremental yields may vary from our underwritten incremental yield range based on the actual total cost to complete a project and its actual incremental NOI at stabilization.

~~Leasing~~LEASING—Leasing is a key driver of growth for our company.

•Comparable lease—We use this term to refer to a lease with consistent structure that is executed for substantially the exact same space that has been vacant less than twelve months.

•Comparable rent spread—This metric is calculated as being the percentage increase or decrease in first-year ABR (excluding any free rent or escalations) on new or renewal leases (excluding options) where the lease was considered a comparable lease. This metric provides an indication of our ability to generate revenue growth through leasing activity.

•Cost of executing new leases—We use this term to refer to certain costs associated with new leasing, namely, leasing commissions, tenant improvement costs, and tenant concessions.

•Portfolio retention rate—This metric is calculated by dividing ~~(a)~~(i) total square feet of retained Neighbors with current period lease expirations by ~~(b)~~(ii) the total square feet of leases expiring during the period. The portfolio retention rate provides insight into our ability to retain Neighbors at our shopping centers as their leases approach expiration. Generally, the costs to retain an existing Neighbor are lower than costs to replace with a new Neighbor.

•Recovery rate—This metric is calculated by dividing ~~(a)~~(i) total recovery income by ~~(b)~~(ii) total recoverable expenses during the period. A high recovery rate is an indicator of our ability to recover certain property operating expenses and capital costs from our Neighbors.

~~Financial Performance~~FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE—In addition to financial metrics calculated in accordance with GAAP, such as net income, ~~or cash flows from operations,~~ we utilize non-GAAP metrics to measure our operational and financial performance. See the section within this Item 2 titled Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Non-GAAP Measures for further discussion on the following metrics.

•Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization for Real Estate (“Adjusted EBITDAre”)—To arrive at Adjusted EBITDAre, we adjust EBITDAre, as defined below, to exclude certain recurring and non-recurring items including, but not limited to: (i) changes in the fair value of the earn-out liability; (ii) other impairment charges; (iii) amortization of basis differences in our investments in our unconsolidated joint ventures; and (iv) transaction and acquisition expenses. We use EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre as additional measures of operating performance which allow us to compare earnings independent of capital structure and evaluate debt leverage and fixed cost coverage.

•Core Funds From Operations (“Core FFO”)—To arrive at Core FFO, we adjust Nareit FFO attributable to stockholders and OP unit holders, as defined below, to exclude certain recurring and non-recurring items including, but not limited to: (i) depreciation and amortization of corporate assets; (ii) changes in the fair value of the earn-out liability; (iii) amortization of unconsolidated joint venture basis differences; (iv) gains or losses on the extinguishment or


PHILLIPS EDISON & COMPANY JUNE 30, 2021 FORM 10-Q									21

Table of Contents

modification of debt, (v) other impairment charges; and (vi) transaction and acquisition expenses. We believe Nareit FFO provides insight into our operating performance as it excludes certain items that are not indicative of such performance. Core FFO provides further insight into the sustainability of our 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).

•EBITDAre—The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“Nareit”) defines EBITDAre as net income (loss) computed in accordance with GAAP before: (i) interest expense; (ii) income tax expense; (iii) depreciation and amortization; (iv) gains or losses from disposition of depreciable property; and (v) impairment write-downs of depreciable property. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect EBITDAre on the same basis.

•Equity Market Capitalization—We calculate equity market capitalization as the total dollar value of all outstanding shares.

•Nareit FFO—Nareit defines FFO as net income (loss) computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding: (i) gains (or losses) from sales of property and gains (or losses) from change in control; (ii) depreciation and amortization related to real estate; (iii) impairment losses on 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; and (iv) adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures, calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. We calculate Nareit FFO ~~Attributable to Stockholders and OP Unit Holders~~ in a manner consistent with the Nareit definition.

•Net Debt—We calculate net debt as total debt, excluding market adjustments and deferred financing expenses, less cash and cash equivalents.

•Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDAre—This ratio is calculated by dividing net debt by Adjusted EBITDAre (included on an annualized basis within the calculation). It provides insight into our leverage rate based on earnings and is not impacted by fluctuations in our equity price.

•Net Debt to Total Enterprise Value—This ratio is calculated by dividing net debt by total enterprise value. It provides insight into our capital structure and usage of debt.

•NOI—We calculate NOI as total operating revenues, adjusted to exclude non-cash revenue items, less property operating expenses and real estate taxes. NOI provides insight about our financial and operating performance because it provides a performance measure of the revenues and expenses directly involved in owning and operating real estate assets and provides a perspective not immediately apparent from net income (loss).

•Same-Center—We use this term to refer to a property, or portfolio of properties, that ~~have~~has been owned and operational for the entirety of each reporting period (i.e., since January 1, 2020).

•Total Enterprise Value—We calculate total enterprise value as our net debt plus our equity market capitalization on a fully diluted basis.

~~Overview~~


OVERVIEW

We are ~~an internally-managed~~a REIT and one of the nation’s largest owners and operators of omni-channel grocery-anchored neighborhood and community shopping centers. The majority of our revenue is lease revenue derived from our real estate investments. Additionally, we operate an investment management business providing property management and advisory services to over $460 million of ~~third-party institutional~~unconsolidated joint ventures. This business provides comprehensive real estate and asset management services to the Managed Funds.

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, we wholly-owned ~~278~~272 real estate properties. Additionally, we owned ~~a 20% interest in NRP, a joint venture that owned two properties, and~~ a 14% interest in GRP I, a joint venture that owned 20 properties, and a 20% interest in NRP, a joint venture that owned two properties.

~~Liquidity Alternative Review Process~~


PHILLIPS EDISON & COMPANY JUNE 30, 2021 FORM 10-Q									22

Table of Contents

RECAPITALIZATION—On ~~March 25,~~June 18, 2021, our stockholders approved Articles of Amendment that effected the Recapitalization, wherein each share of our common stock outstanding at the time the amendment became effective was converted into one share of a newly created class of Class B common stock. The Articles of Amendment became effective upon filing with, and acceptance by, the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland on July 2, 2021. Unless otherwise indicated, all information in this Form 10-Q disclosure gives effect to the Recapitalization and references to “shares” and per share metrics refer to our common stock and Class B common stock, collectively (Note 9).

REVERSE STOCK SPLIT—On July 2, 2021, our Board ~~announced that we are reviewing alternatives in order to provide liquidity~~approved an amendment to our ~~shareholders. In connection~~articles of incorporation to effect a one-for-three reverse stock split. Concurrent with the ~~review process,~~reverse split, the Operating Partnership enacted a one-for-three reverse split of its outstanding OP units. Unless otherwise indicated, the information in this Form 10-Q gives effect to the reverse stock and OP unit splits (Note 9).

UNDERWRITTEN INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING—On July 19, 2021, we closed our underwritten IPO, through which we offered 17.0 million shares of a new class of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, at an initial price of $28.00 per share, pursuant to a registration statement filed with the SEC on Form S-11 (File No. 333-255846), as amended. These shares are listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the trading symbol “PECO”. The underwriters have since exercised a 30-day option to purchase additional shares of common stock to cover overallotments, and, accordingly, on August 2, 2021 we settled the sale of an additional 2.55 million shares, with gross proceeds to us of $71.4 million.

On August 4, 2021, as a result of our underwritten IPO, our Board approved the termination of the DRIP and the SRP. The DRIP has been suspended ~~beginning with the distribution payable~~since April 1, 2021. ~~Additionally, the Fourth Amended~~The SRP, which ~~is currently~~was limited to repurchases resulting from ~~stockholder~~the DDI of stockholders, has been ~~suspended. The~~suspended since March 2021, and the SRP for ~~both~~ standard ~~and DDI requests will remain~~repurchases had been suspended ~~until further notice.~~since August 2019.

COVID-19 ~~Strategy~~STRATEGY—During 2020, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, many state governments issued “stay-at-home” mandates that generally limited travel and movement of the general public to essential activities only and required all non-essential businesses to close. In response to the pandemic, we enacted several initiatives including: (1) the implementation of expense reduction initiatives at the property and corporate levels, including reductions to our workforce and travel costs; (2) the reprioritization of our capital investments to support the reopening of our Neighbors and new leasing activity, or deferment of such capital expenditures if possible; (3) temporary reductions in compensation for certain of our executives and our Board; and (4) the temporary suspension of dividends, the DRIP, and the SRP.

At the peak of the pandemic-related closure activity, temporary closures reached 37% of all Neighbor spaces, totaling 27% of our ABR and 22% of our GLA. All temporarily closed Neighbors have since been permitted to reopen; however, a portion of our Neighbors have permanently closed, and we are working to backfill these spaces. We continue to closely monitor the occupancy, operating performance, and Neighbor sales results at our centers, including any Neighbors operating with reduced hours or under government-imposed restrictions.

Our management team ~~has~~ determined the following ~~are~~were the key actions for recovery in our portfolio (all statistics are approximate and include the prorated portion attributable to properties owned through our joint ventures):

•Returning to Monthly Payments—We continue to work with our Neighbors to resume normal monthly rent payments, and our efforts have included raising awareness of the benefits available through numerous governmental relief programs. We have seen our collections continue to improve from the second quarter of 2020. The following table

summarizes our collections by quarter, as they were originally reported as well as updated for payments received subsequent to the month billed:


		Originally Reported		Current(1)			Originally Reported		Current(1)
Q2 2020	Q2 2020	86	%	93	%	Q2 2020	86	%	93	%
Q3 2020	Q3 2020	94	%	96	%	Q3 2020	94	%	96	%
Q4 2020	Q4 2020	95	%	96	%	Q4 2020	95	%	97	%
Q1 2021	Q1 2021	N/A		95	%	Q1 2021	95	%	98	%
Q2 2021						Q2 2021	N/A		98	%

(1)Including collections received through ~~April~~July 20, 2021.

As of ~~April~~July 20, 2021, approximately ~~79%~~95% of our Neighbor spaces are paying their rent in full.

•Recovering Missed Rent Charges—We believe substantially all Neighbors, including those that were required to temporarily close under governmental mandates, are contractually obligated to continue with their rent payments as documented in our lease agreements with them. However, we ~~may~~decided to negotiate relief for a small subset of our Neighbors in the form of rent deferrals or abatements. As of ~~April~~July 20, 2021, we have ~~$5.4~~$5.3 million of outstanding payment plans with our Neighbors, and we had recorded rent abatements of approximately ~~$4.4~~$0.7 million during ~~2021.~~2021, related to 2021 missed rental income. These payment plans and rent abatements represented ~~1.4%~~approximately 2.0% and ~~1.1%~~0.3% of portfolio ~~ABR, respectively,~~rental income for the six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. As of July 20, 2021, approximately 54% of payments are scheduled to be received by December 31, 2021 for all executed payment plans, and the weighted-average term over which we expect to receive remaining amounts owed on executed payment plans is approximately 13twelve months.

We are still actively pursuing past due amounts under the terms negotiated with our Neighbors. For our entire portfolio, inclusive of our prorated share of properties owned through joint ventures, ~~43%~~69% of the missed monthly charges billed during the first ~~quarter~~and second quarters of 2021 have since been collected, ~~subsequent to the month billed~~ and 5% have been waived, as of ~~April~~July 20, ~~2021.~~2021, bringing both Q1 and Q2 2021 collections to 98%. We will continue to work with Neighbors on establishing plans to repay past due amounts, and will monitor the impact of such payment plans on our results of operations in future quarters. We cannot guarantee that we will ultimately be able to collect these amounts.


PHILLIPS EDISON & COMPANY JUNE 30, 2021 FORM 10-Q									23

•Monitoring for Credit Risk—The COVID-19 pandemic and resulting economic downturn has increased the uncertainty of collecting rents from a number of our Neighbors. We have been closely monitoring the status of our Neighbors to identify those who potentially pose a credit risk in order to appropriately account for the impact to revenue and in order to quickly take action when a Neighbor is ultimately unable to remain in a space.

For Neighbors with a higher degree of uncertainty as to their creditworthiness, we may not record revenue for amounts billed until the cash is received. Based on our analysis, no individual Neighbor category has been accounted for entirely on a cash basis as of ~~March 31, 2021;~~June 30, 2021 or throughout the pandemic; however, we continue to evaluate each Neighbor individually to determine if they should be accounted for on a cash basis. For the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, inclusive of the prorated portion attributable to properties owned through our joint ventures, we had $1.3 million in net favorable monthly revenue adjustments for Neighbors who are being accounted for on a cash basis. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, we had $3.6 million in net unfavorable monthly revenue adjustments for Neighbors who are being accounted for on a cash basis. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, inclusive of the prorated portion attributable to properties owned through our joint ventures, we had ~~$4.9~~$12.1 million and ~~$2.9~~$15.0 million, respectively, in net unfavorable monthly revenue adjustments for Neighbors who are being accounted for on a cash basis. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, our Neighbors currently being accounted for on a cash basis represented approximately ~~10%~~8% of our total Neighbor spaces, ~~which represented 8.4%~~or approximately 7.4% of portfolio ABR. Further, many of our Neighbors who are on a cash basis of accounting are actively making payments toward their outstanding balances. When considering the ABR associated with Neighbors who are currently on a cash basis of accounting, ~~56%~~76% of this ABR is represented by Neighbors who are actively making payments.

Additionally, certain of our Neighbors have entered into bankruptcy proceedings. While some of these cases have already been resolved, with the assumption or rejection of the lease already reflected in our results, in some cases these claims have yet to be resolved, and as such, the potential fallout is not yet reflected in our occupancy rate or ABR metrics. We believe that Neighbors in the bankruptcy process represent an exposure of ~~approximately~~less than 1% of our total portfolio ABR as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021. We have included our assessment of the impact of these bankruptcies in our estimate of rent collectibility, which impacted recorded revenue, as noted previously.

Certain of our Neighbors have been unable to remain in their spaces as a result of the factors previously noted. Despite this fallout, our leasing activity has been strong as demand for space in our centers remains high, allowing us to re-lease these spaces to Neighbors who may increase our concentration of necessity-based and omni-channel retailers. For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, our wholly-owned portfolio retention rate was ~~88.8%~~85.5% and 87.2%, respectively. Additionally, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, for our wholly-owned portfolio, we executed ~~153~~124 and 277 new leases, respectively, each an increase as compared to the same period a year ago.

~~Lease Expirations~~LEASE EXPIRATIONS—The following chart shows the aggregate scheduled lease expirations, excluding our Neighbors who are occupying space on a temporary basis, after ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 for each of the next ten years and thereafter for our wholly-owned properties and the prorated portion of those owned through our joint ventures:

Our ability to create rental rate growth generally depends on our leverage during new and renewal lease negotiations with prospective and existing Neighbors, which typically occurs when occupancy at our centers is high or during periods of economic growth and recovery. Conversely, we may experience rental rate decline when occupancy at our centers is low or during periods of economic recession, as the leverage during new and renewal lease negotiations may shift to prospective and existing Neighbors.

We define “Necessity-based goods and services” as goods and services that are indispensable, necessary, or common for day-to-day living, or that tend to be inelastic (i.e., those for which the demand ~~for which~~ does not change based on a consumer’s income level). We estimate that approximately 73% of our ABR, including the pro rata portion attributable to properties owned through our joint ventures, is from Neighbors providing necessity-based goods and services. Additionally, within these categories, we estimate that approximately ~~51%~~50% of our ABR is from retail and service businesses generally deemed essential under most state and local mandates issued in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

KNOWN TRENDS AND UNCERTAINTIES OF THE COVID-19 ~~Pandemic~~

PANDEMIC—The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in reduced revenues beginning with the second quarter of 2020 and continuing through the ~~first~~second quarter of 2021, and our estimates around collectibility will likely continue to create volatility in our earnings. The total impact on revenue in the future cannot be determined at this time. The duration of the pandemic and mitigating measures, and the resulting economic impact, has caused some of our Neighbors to permanently vacate their spaces and/or not renew their leases, and we may have difficulty leasing these spaces on the same or better terms or at all, and/or incur additional costs to lease vacant spaces, which may reduce our occupancy rates in the future and ultimately reduce our revenue. Extended periods of vacancy or reduced revenues may trigger impairments of our real estate assets. ~~Additionally, these factors have impacted disposition activity by decreasing demand and negatively impacting capitalization rates.~~

The magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on our results of operations in the near term and potentially beyond are uncertain as a result of a number of factors outside of our control. These factors include, but are not limited to: overall economic conditions on both a macro and micro level, including consumer demand as well as retailer demand for space within our shopping centers; the impact of social distancing guidelines, recommendations from governmental authorities, and consumer shopping preferences; the nature and effectiveness of any economic stimulus or relief measures; the timing of availability and distribution of vaccines to the general public and the resulting vaccination rates; and the impact of all of the factors above, including other potentially unknown factors, on our Neighbors’ ability to continue paying rent and related charges on time or at all and Neighbors’ willingness to renew their leases on the same terms or at all. The impact of these factors, some of which have already been realized, could include reduced revenue from Neighbor concessions, increased collectibility reserves, decreased recovery rates on expenses, and other unforeseen impacts that may arise in the course of operating during these circumstances. See “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Overview” for our observation of Neighbor impacts through April 20, 2021.

We believe that our investment focus on grocery-anchored shopping centers that provide daily necessities has helped and will continue to help lessen the negative effect of the pandemic on our business compared to non-grocery anchored shopping centers.

Our basis for analyzing significant fluctuations in our results of operations generally includes review of the results of our same-center portfolio, non-same-center portfolio, and revenues and expenses from our management activities. We define our same-center portfolio as the ~~274~~268 properties that were owned and operational prior to January 1, 2020. We define our non-same-center portfolio as those properties that were not fully owned and operational in both periods owing to real estate asset activity occurring after December 31, 2019, which includes 1319 properties disposed of and four properties acquired. Below are explanations of the significant fluctuations in the results of operations for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and 2020:

Rental Income ~~decreased $0.8~~increased $14.7 million as follows:

•$~~0.5~~15.5 million ~~decrease primarily related to our net disposition of 9 properties; and~~

•~~$0.3 million decrease~~increase related to our same-center portfolio primarily as follows:

▪$~~1.3~~16.0 million ~~decrease~~increase primarily due to stronger collections in 2021 as compared with lower collections in 2020, the increase owing largely ~~due~~ to the ongoing recovery of our portfolio in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic and its economic impact, including a ~~$1.1 million decrease due to rent abatement and a $0.2 million~~ decrease in ~~connection with~~ Neighbors we have identified as a credit risk ~~including the impact of straight-line rent adjustments for the related leases;~~as well as collections on charges that were uncollected in 2020;

▪$0.7 million increase due to lease buyout income owing largely to Neighbors (representing less than 1% of ABR and GLA) who opted not to remain in their space following negative impacts as a result of COVID-19; and

▪~~$0.3~~0.5 million increase primarily due to a ~~$0.52~~$0.57 increase in average minimum rent per square foot, partially offset by a 0.8% decrease in average economic occupancy; and

▪$1.0 million decrease attributable to lower recoveries from a lower recovery rate and lower economic occupancy.

•$0.8 million decrease primarily related to our net disposition of 15 properties.

Property Operating Expenses increased$2.3 million as follows:

•$2.5 million increase related to our same-center portfolio and corporate operating activities, owing largely to lower expense for performance-based compensation during 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, as compared to 2021; and

•$0.2 million decrease related to our net disposition of 15 properties.

General and Administrative ~~Expenses:~~Expenses increased $2.1 million as follows:

•$3.4 million increase owing largely to lower expense for performance-based compensation during 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, as compared to 2021;

•$0.8 million decrease primarily due to lower third-party consultant and custodial costs; and

•$0.5 million decrease related to expense reductions taken to reduce the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, with the majority of these decreases related to overhead costs at our corporate offices.

Impairment of Real Estate Assets:

•The ~~$1.4~~$1.1 million increase in impairment of real estate assets was due to assets that are actively being marketed for sale at a disposition price that was less than the carrying value. Proceeds from dispositions will be used to fund tax-efficient acquisitions, to fund redevelopment opportunities in owned centers, and for general corporate purposes. We continue to sell non-core assets and may potentially recognize impairments in future quarters.

Interest Expense, Net:

•The $3.0 million decrease during the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020 was due to: (i) lower borrowings as a result of early repayments of debt; (ii) the repayment of our draw on the revolver during the second quarter of 2020; and (iii) lower interest rates due to the decrease in LIBOR and expiring interest rate swaps.

Other Expense, Net:

•The $2.4 million increase was largely due to the change in the fair value of our earn-out liability as a result of general improving market conditions. Other Expense, Net was comprised of the following (dollars in thousands):

NON-GAAP MEASURES

See “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Key Performance Indicators and Defined Terms” of this filing on Form 10-Q for a discussion related to the following non-GAAP measures.

~~Same-Center Net Operating Income~~SAME-CENTER NET OPERATING INCOME—Same-Center NOI is presented as a supplemental measure of our performance, as it highlights operating trends such as occupancy levels, rental rates, and operating costs for our Same-Center portfolio. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating Same-Center NOI, and accordingly, our Same-Center NOI may not be comparable to other REITs. For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 and 2020, Same-Center NOI represents the NOI for the ~~274~~268 properties that were wholly-owned and operational for the entire portion of both comparable periods.

Same-Center NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance as it does not reflect the operations of our entire portfolio, nor does it reflect the impact of general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, other income (expense), 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.

NAREIT FFO ~~and Core~~AND CORE FFO—Nareit FFO is a non-GAAP financial performance measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. Core FFO is an additional financial performance measure used by us as Nareit FFO includes certain non-comparable items that affect our performance over time. Core FFO is helpful in assisting management and investors with assessing the sustainability of our operating performance in future periods.


PHILLIPS EDISON & COMPANY JUNE 30, 2021 FORM 10-Q									35

Table of Contents

Nareit FFO, Nareit FFO Attributable to Stockholders and OP Unit Holders, and Core FFO should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss) 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. Core FFO 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, Nareit FFO, Nareit FFO Attributable to Stockholders and OP Unit Holders, and Core FFO 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 Nareit FFO, Nareit FFO Attributable to Stockholders and OP Unit Holders, and Core FFO, as presented, may not be comparable to amounts calculated by other REITs.

~~EBITDAre~~EBITDAre and ~~Adjusted EBITDAre~~ADJUSTED EBITDAre—We use EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre as additional measures of operating performance which allow us to compare earnings independent of capital structure, determine debt service and fixed cost coverage, and measure enterprise value. Additionally, we believe they are a useful indicator of our ability to support our debt obligations.

EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss), as an indication of our liquidity, nor as an indication of funds available to cover our cash needs, including our ability to fund distributions. Accordingly, EBITDAre and Adjusted EBITDAre 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.

~~Liquidity and Capital Resources~~


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

~~General~~GENERAL—Aside from standard operating expenses, we expect our principal cash demands to be for:

•cash distributions to stockholders;

•investments in real estate;

•capital expenditures and leasing costs;

•redevelopment and repositioning projects; and

•principal and interest payments on our outstanding indebtedness.

We expect our primary sources of liquidity to be:

•net proceeds from our underwritten IPO;

•operating cash flows;

•proceeds received from the disposition of properties;

•~~reinvested distributions~~;

•proceeds from equity and debt financings, including borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility;

•distributions received from our ~~third-party institutional~~unconsolidated joint ventures; and

•available, unrestricted cash and cash equivalents.

At this time, we believe our current sources of liquidity, most significantly the net proceeds from our underwritten IPO, our operating cash flows, and borrowing availability on our revolving credit facility, are sufficient to meet our short- and long-term cash demands.

~~Debt~~UNDERWRITTEN INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING—On July 19, 2021, we completed an underwritten IPO and issued 17.0 million shares of common stock at an offering price of $28.00 per share. We used a portion of the net proceeds to reduce our leverage and expect to use the remaining amount to fund external growth with property acquisitions and for other general corporate uses. As part of the underwritten IPO, underwriters were granted an option exercisable within 30 days from July 14, 2021 to purchase up to an additional 2.55 million shares of common stock at the underwritten IPO price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. On July 29, 2021, the underwriters exercised their option.

~~Operating Activities~~OPERATING ACTIVITIES—Our net cash provided by operating activities was primarily impacted by the following:

•Property operations and working capital—Most of our operating cash comes from rental and tenant recovery income and is offset by property operating expenses, real estate taxes, and general and administrative costs. During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, we had a net cash ~~outlay~~inflow of ~~$15.3~~$2.1 million from changes in working capital as compared to a net cash outlay of ~~$23.4~~$24.3 million during the same period in 2020. This change was primarily driven by improved collections on amounts due from Neighbors as well as expense reduction initiatives, and was partially offset by higher leasing commissions. Additionally, we had an increase in returns on our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures.

•Fee and management income—We also generate operating cash from our third-party investment management business, pursuant to various management and advisory agreements between us and the Managed Funds. Our fee and management income was ~~$2.3~~$4.7 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, ~~an increase~~a decrease of ~~$0.1~~$0.3 million as compared to the same period in 2020.

•Cash paid for interest—During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, we paid ~~$18.9~~$36.8 million for interest, a decrease of ~~$1.4~~$4.1 million over the same period in 2020, largely due to: (i) lower borrowings as a result of early repayments of debt; (ii) the repayment of our draw on the revolver during the second quarter of 2020; and (iii) lower interest rates due to athe decrease in LIBOR and expiring interest rate swaps.

~~Investing Activities~~INVESTING ACTIVITIES—Our net cash provided by (used in) investing activities was primarily impacted by the following:

•Real estate acquisitions—During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, our acquisitions resulted in a total cash outlay of ~~$39.9~~$40.5 million, as compared to a total cash outlay of $4.3 million during the same period in 2020.

•Real estate dispositions—During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, our dispositions resulted in a net cash inflow of ~~$58.4~~$119.6 million, as compared to a net cash inflow of ~~$17.4~~$25.8 million during the same period in 2020.

•Capital expenditures—We invest capital into leasing our properties and maintaining or improving the condition of our properties. During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, we paid ~~$13.5~~$30.2 million for capital expenditures, ~~a decrease~~an increase of ~~$2.4~~$1.7 million over the same period in 2020, primarily due to the timing of our development and redevelopment ~~projects.~~projects and reduced spend during the same period period a year ago.

•Return of investment in unconsolidated joint ventures—During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we had a return of investment in unconsolidated joint ventures of $3.9 million, including $2.0 million in connection with NRP primarily as a result of property dispositions. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we had a return of investment in unconsolidated joint ventures of $0.6 million.

•Investment in third parties—During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, we made an investment in a third party business that resulted in a net cash outflow of $3.0 million.

~~Financing Activities~~FINANCING ACTIVITIES—Our net cash used in financing activities was primarily impacted by the following:

•Debt borrowings and payments—During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, we had ~~$16.5~~$66.2 million in net repayment of debt primarily as a result of early repayments of mortgage loans. During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 we had net ~~borrowings~~payments of ~~$1.5~~$35.2 million, ~~largely~~primarily as a result of ~~drawing $34.0 million on our revolving credit facility, offset by~~ a pay down in January 2020 of $30.0 million on term loan debt maturing in 2021.

•Distributions to stockholders and OP unit holders—Cash used for distributions to common stockholders and OP unit holders decreased ~~$11.1~~$2.3 million for the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020, ~~primarily~~ due to a reduction of the distribution ~~rate beginning with the December 2020 distribution, which was paid in January 2021, and due to a lower share count as a result of a tender offer.~~rate.

CONTRACTUAL COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

We have debt obligations related to both our secured and unsecured debt. In ~~connection with~~addition, we have operating leases pertaining to office equipment for our business as well as ground leases at certain of our shopping centers. We are presenting our future contractual commitments and contingencies as of June 30, 2021 on an adjusted basis to reflect our material debt transactions occurring in July 2021 (see Note 6 for more details). The table below excludes obligations related to tenant allowances and improvements because such amounts are not fixed or determinable. However, we believe we currently have sufficient financing in place to fund any such amounts as they arise through cash from operations or borrowings. The following table details our pro forma contractual obligations as of June 30, 2021 (in thousands):

(1)In July 2021, we amended our $500 million revolving credit facility to extend the ~~liquidity alternative review process,~~maturity from October 2021 to January 2026, and lower the ~~Fourth Amended SRP, which is currently limited~~interest rate spread from 1.40% over LIBOR to ~~repurchases resulting from DDI~~1.35% over LIBOR. Additionally, the new terms include two six-month maturity extension options. As of ~~stockholders, has been suspended,~~June 30, 2021, we have 0 outstanding balance on our revolving credit facility.

(2)Future variable-rate interest payments are based on interest rates as of June 30, 2021, including the impact of our swap agreements.

Our portfolio debt instruments and the ~~March 31, 2021 repurchases related~~unsecured revolving credit facility contain certain covenants and restrictions. The following list provides an update to ~~stockholder DDI~~certain restrictive covenants specific to the unsecured revolving credit facility and unsecured term loans that were ~~not executed. The SRP~~deemed significant as a result of our debt activity occurring in July 2021:

•limits the ratio of total debt to total asset value, as defined, to 60% or less with a surge to 65% for ~~both standard~~a period of four consecutive fiscal quarters following a material acquisition;

•limits the ratio of secured debt to total asset value, as defined, to 35% or less with a surge to 40% for a period of four consecutive fiscal quarters following a material acquisition;

•requires the fixed-charge ratio, as defined, to be 1.5:1 or greater

•limits the ratio of cash dividend payments to Nareit FFO, as defined, to 95%;

•limits the ratio of unsecured debt to unencumbered total asset value, as defined, to 60% or less with a surge to 65% for a period of four consecutive fiscal quarters following a material acquisition;

•requires the unencumbered NOI to interest expense ratio, as defined, to be 1.75:1 or greater; and ~~DDI requests~~

•if we were to lose our investment grade rating in the future, the current tangible net worth will ~~remain suspended until further notice.~~be required to exceed the minimum tangible net worth, as defined, at that time.

~~Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates~~


CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, originally filed with the SEC on March 12, 2021, contains a description of our critical accounting policies and estimates, including those relating to real estate acquisitions, rental income, and the valuation of real estate assets. There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies during 2021.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

~~There~~We utilize interest rate swaps in order to hedge a portion of our exposure to interest rate fluctuations. We do not intend to enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes. Our hedging decisions are determined based upon the facts and circumstances existing at the time of the hedge and may differ from our currently anticipated hedging strategy. Because we use derivative financial instruments to hedge against interest rate fluctuations, we may be exposed to both credit risk and market risk. Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. If the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty will owe us, which creates credit risk for us. If the fair value of a derivative contract is negative, we will owe the counterparty and, therefore, do not have ~~been no material changes~~credit risk. We seek to minimize the credit risk in derivative instruments by entering into transactions with high-quality counterparties. Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of a financial instrument that results from ~~the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about~~a change in interest rates. The market risk ~~disclosed~~associated with interest-rate contracts is managed by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken.

As of June 30, 2021, we had five interest rate swaps that fixed LIBOR on $930 million of our unsecured term loan facilities. In July 2021, we paid down $375 million in unsecured term loan debt using proceeds from our underwritten IPO. Taking into effect our pay down of this unsecured term loan as if such pay down occurred on June 30, 2021 (“as adjusted”), we had not


PHILLIPS EDISON & COMPANY JUNE 30, 2021 FORM 10-Q									43

Table of Contents

fixed the interest rate on $325 million of our unsecured debt through derivative financial instruments. Further, as of June 30, 2021, we estimate that a one percentage point increase in interest rates on the outstanding balance of our variable rate debt (as adjusted) would result in approximately $3.3 million of additional interest expense annually.

The additional interest expense was determined based on the impact of hypothetical interest rates on our borrowing cost and assumes no changes in our capital structure, other than the effect of the unsecured term loan pay down as described above. For further discussion of certain quantitative details related to our interest rate swaps, see Note 7.

See “Part II, Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” of our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K originally filed with the SEC on March 12, ~~2021.~~2021 for more details associated with our exposure to credit risk and market risk.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021. Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the quarter ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2021, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.


w PART II OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

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

The following risk factor supplements the risk factors set forth in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 12, 2021. Except to the extent updated below or previously updated, or to the extent additional factual information disclosed elsewhere in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relates to such risk factors (including, without limitation, the matters discussed in “Part I, Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”), there were no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 12, 2021.

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has had, and is expected to continue to have, a negative effect on our and our Neighbors’ businesses, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and liquidity.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has caused, and is expected to continue to cause, significant disruptions to the United States and global economy and has contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in financial markets. The global impact of the outbreak is continually evolving and, as additional cases of the virus are identified, many countries, including the United States, reacted by instituting quarantines, restrictions on travel, and/or mandatory closures of businesses. Certain states and cities, including where our properties are located, also reacted by instituting quarantines, restrictions on travel, “shelter-in-place” or “stay-at-home” rules, restrictions on types of businesses that may continue to operate, and/or restrictions on the types of construction projects that may continue. In May 2020, many state and local governments began lifting, in whole or in part, the “stay-at-home” mandates, effectively removing or lessening the limitations on travel and allowing many businesses to reopen in full or limited capacity.

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our business and financial performance, and we expect this impact to continue. Our retail and service-based tenants (whom we refer to as a “Neighbor” or our “Neighbors”) depend on in-person interactions with their customers to generate unit-level profitability, and the COVID-19 pandemic has decreased, and may continue to decrease, customers’ willingness to frequent, and mandated “shelter-in-place” or “stay-at-home” orders may prevent customers from frequenting our Neighbors’ businesses, which may result in their inability to maintain profitability and make timely rental payments to us under their leases or to otherwise seek lease modifications or to declare bankruptcy. At the peak of the pandemic-related closure activity, for our wholly-owned properties and those owned through our joint ventures, our temporary closures reached approximately 37% of all Neighbor spaces, totaling 27% of our annualized base rent (“ABR”) and 22% of our gross leasable area (“GLA”). All temporarily closed Neighbors have since been permitted to reopen; however, ~~a portion~~there are


PHILLIPS EDISON & COMPANY JUNE 30, 2021 FORM 10-Q									44

Table of our Neighbors have permanently closed, and we are working to backfill these spaces. Some may be limiting the number of customers allowed in their stores, or have modified their operations in other ways that may impact their profitability, either as a result of government mandates or self-elected efforts to reduce the spread of COVID-19. These actions, as well as the Contents

continuing economic impacts offrom the COVID-19 pandemic which could result in ~~increased permanent~~future store ~~closures. In addition to the permanent~~ closures ~~that have occurred in our portfolio, this~~or could reduce the demand for leasing space in our shopping ~~centers and result in a decline in average rental rates on expiring leases.~~centers.

While most of our Neighbors have reopened, we cannot presently determine how many of the Neighbors that remain closed will reopen, or whether a portion of those that have reopened will be required by government mandates to temporarily close again or will encounter financial difficulties that require them to close permanently. We believe substantially all Neighbors, including those that were required to temporarily close under governmental mandates, are contractually obligated to continue with their rent payments as documented in our lease agreements with them. However, we believe it is best to begin negotiation of relief only once a Neighbor has reopened and made payments toward rent and recovery charges accrued. Inclusive of our prorated share of properties owned through our joint ventures, as of ~~April~~July 20, 2021, we have ~~$5.4~~$5.3 million of outstanding payment plans with our Neighbors, and we had recorded rent abatements of approximately ~~$4.4~~$0.7 million during

2021. These payment plans and rent abatements represented ~~1.4%~~approximately 2.0% and ~~1.1%~~0.3% of portfolio ~~ABR, respectively,~~rental income for the six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. As of July 20, 2021, approximately 54% of payments are scheduled to be received by December 31, 2021 for all executed payment plans, and the weighted-average term over which we expect to receive remaining amounts owed on executed payment plans is approximately 13twelve months. We are still actively pursuing past due amounts under the terms negotiated with our Neighbors. We are in negotiations with additional Neighbors, which we believe will lead to more Neighbors repaying their past due charges. As of ~~April~~July 20, 2021, we have collected approximately 95% of rent and recoveries billed during the second through fourth quarters of 2020, and approximately ~~95%~~98% of rent and recoveries billed during the first ~~quarter~~and second quarters of 2021. In the event of any default by a Neighbor under its lease agreement or relief agreement, we may not be able to fully recover, and/or may experience delays in recovering and additional costs in enforcing our rights as landlord to recover, amounts due to us under the terms of the lease agreement and/or relief agreement. Additionally, certain Neighbors have declared bankruptcy as a result of the effects of the pandemic. As of March 31, 2021, we have several Neighbors in bankruptcy proceedings where we have not yet received notice that the lease has been assumed or rejected, representing an exposure of approximately 1% of our total ABR.

Moreover, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, restrictions intended to prevent and mitigate its spread, resulting consumer behavior, and the economic slowdown or recession could have additional adverse effects on our business, including with regards to:

•the ability and willingness of our Neighbors to renew their leases upon expiration, our ability to re-lease the properties on the same or better terms in the event of nonrenewal or in the event we exercise our right to replace an existing Neighbor, and obligations we may incur in connection with the replacement of an existing Neighbor, particularly in light of the adverse impact to the financial health of many retailers and service providers that has occurred and continues to occur as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the significant uncertainty as to when and the conditions under which certain potential Neighbors will be able to operate physical retail locations in the future;

•a potential sustained or permanent increase in online shopping instead of shopping at physical retail properties, thereby reducing demand for space in our shopping centers and possible related reductions in rent or increased costs to lease space;

•the adverse impact of current economic conditions on the market value of our real estate portfolio and our third-party investment management business, and consequently on the estimated value per share of our common stock;

•the adverse impact of the current economic conditions on our ability to effect a liquidity event at an attractive price or at all in the near term and for a potentially lengthy period of time;

•the financial impact and continued economic uncertainty that could continue to negatively impact our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders and/or to repurchase shares;

•to the extent we were seeking to sell properties in the near term, significantly greater uncertainty regarding our ability to do so at attractive prices or at all;

•anticipated returns from development and redevelopment projects, which have been prioritized to support the reopening of our Neighbors and new leasing activity, or deferred if possible;

•the broader impact of the severe economic contraction due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the resulting increase in unemployment that has occurred in the short-term and its effect on consumer behavior, and negative consequences that will occur if these trends are not reversed in a timely way;

•state, local, or industry-initiated efforts, such as a rent freeze for Neighbors or a suspension of a landlord’s ability to enforce evictions, which may affect our ability to collect rent or enforce remedies for the failure to pay rent;

•severe disruption and instability in the global financial markets or deteriorations in credit and financing conditions, which could make it difficult for us to access debt and equity capital on attractive terms, or at all, and impact our ability to fund business operations and activities and repay liabilities on a timely basis;

•our ability to pay down, refinance, restructure, or extend our indebtedness as it becomes due, and our potential inability to comply with the financial covenants of our credit facility and other debt agreements, which could result in a default and potential acceleration of indebtedness and impact our ability to make additional borrowings under our credit facility or otherwise in the future; and

•the potential negative impact on the health of our personnel, particularly if a significant number of them and/or key personnel are impacted, and the potential impact of adaptations to our operations in order to protect our personnel, such as remote work arrangements, could introduce operational risk, including but not limited to cybersecurity risks, and could impair our ability to manage our business.

We may in the future choose to pay distributions in shares of our common stock rather than solely in cash, which may result in our stockholders having a tax liability with respect to such distributions that exceeds the amount of cash received, if any.

Table of Contents

While the rapid developments regarding the COVID-19 pandemic preclude any prediction as to its ultimate adverse impact, the current economic, political, and social environment presents material risks and uncertainties with respect to our and our Neighbors’ business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity, and ability to satisfy debt service obligations. Moreover, to the extent any of these risks and uncertainties adversely impact us in the ways described above or otherwise, they may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described under the section entitled “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Actual incremental yields for our development and redevelopment projects may vary from our underwritten incremental yield range.

As part of our standard development and redevelopment underwriting process, we analyze the yield for each project and establish a range of target yields (“underwritten incremental yields”). Underwritten incremental yields reflect the yield we target to generate from each project upon expected stabilization and are calculated as the estimated incremental NOI for a project at stabilization divided by its estimated net project investment. The estimated incremental NOI is the difference between the estimated annualized NOI we target to generate from a project upon stabilization and the estimated annualized NOI without the planned improvements. Underwritten incremental yield does not include peripheral impacts, such as lease rollover risk or the impact on the long term value of the property upon sale or disposition.

Underwritten incremental yields are based solely on our estimates, using data available to us in our development and redevelopment underwriting processes. The actual total cost to complete a development or redevelopment project may differ substantially from our estimates due to various factors, including unanticipated expenses, delays in the estimated start and/or completion date of planned development projects, effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, and other contingencies. In addition, the actual incremental NOI from our planned development and redevelopment activities may differ substantially from our estimates based on numerous other factors, including delays and/or difficulties in leasing and stabilizing a development or redevelopment project, failure to obtain estimated occupancy and rental rates, inability to collect anticipated rental revenues, Neighbor bankruptcies, and unanticipated expenses that we cannot pass on to our Neighbors. Actual incremental yields may vary from our underwritten incremental yield range based on the actual total cost to complete a project and its incremental NOI at stabilization.

We and ~~the~~our consolidated subsidiary, Phillips Edison Grocery Center Operating Partnership I, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), entered into a tax protection ~~agreement~~agreements with certain protected partners, which may limit the Operating Partnership’s ability to sell or otherwise dispose of certain ~~properties~~shopping centers and may require the Operating Partnership to maintain certain debt levels that otherwise would not be required to operate its business.

We and ~~our consolidated subsidiary, Phillips Edison Grocery Center~~the Operating Partnership ~~I, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”),~~ entered into a tax protection agreement on October 4, 2017 (the “2017 TPA”) with, among others, Jeffrey S. Edison, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and certain entities controlled by him at the closing of a transaction in May 2017 pursuant to which we internalized our management structure through the acquisition of certain real estate assets and the third party investment management business of Phillips Edison Limited Partnership in exchange for ownership units of the Operating Partnership (“OP units”) and cash. Pursuant to ~~this tax protection agreement,~~the 2017 TPA, if the Operating Partnership: (i) sells, exchanges, transfers or otherwise disposes of certain ~~properties~~shopping centers in a taxable transaction, or undertakes any taxable merger, combination, consolidation or similar transaction (including a transfer of all or substantially all assets), for a period of ten years commencing on October 4, 2017; or (ii) fails, prior to the expiration of such period, to maintain certain minimum levels of indebtedness that would be allocable to each protected partner for tax purposes or, under certain circumstances, fails to offer such protected partners the opportunity to guarantee certain types of the Operating Partnership’s indebtedness, then the Operating Partnership will indemnify each affected protected partner, including ~~our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Jeffrey S.~~Mr. Edison, against certain resulting tax liabilities. Our tax indemnification obligations include a tax gross-up. As of June 30, 2021, 36 of our 272 wholly-owned properties, comprising approximately 11.4% of our ABR, are subject to the protection described in clause (i) above, and the potential “make-whole amount” on the estimated aggregate amount of built-in gain subject to such protection is approximately $152.6 million.

We and the Operating Partnership entered into an additional tax protection agreement (the “2021 TPA”) on July 19, 2021 with Mr. Edison; Devin I. Murphy, our President; and Robert F. Myers, our Chief Operating Officer and Executive Vice President, which will become effective upon the expiration of the 2017 TPA. The 2021 TPA generally has the following terms: (i) the 2021 TPA will severally provide to Mr. Edison, Mr. Murphy and Mr. Myers the same protection provided under the 2017 TPA until 2031, so long as (a) Mr. Edison, Mr. Murphy or Mr. Myers (or their permitted transferees), as applicable, individually owns at least 65% of the OP units owned by him as of the date of the execution of the 2021 TPA and (b) in the case of Mr. Murphy or Mr. Myers, Mr. Edison individually owns at least 65% of the OP units owned by him as of the date of the execution of the 2021 TPA; and (ii) the 2021 TPA will provide that following the expiration of the four-year tax protection period under the 2021 TPA, for so long as Mr. Edison holds at least $5.0 million in value of OP units, (a) Mr. Edison will have the opportunity to guarantee debt of the Operating Partnership or enter into a “deficit restoration” obligation, and (b) the Operating Partnership will provide reasonable notice to Mr. Edison before effecting a significant transaction reasonably likely to result in the recognition of more than one-third of the built-in gain allocated to Mr. Edison that is protected under the 2017 TPA as of the date that the 2021 TPA is executed, and will consider in good faith any proposal made by Mr. Edison relating to structuring such transaction in a manner to avoid or mitigate adverse tax consequences to him.

Therefore, although it may be in our stockholders’ best interest for us to cause the Operating Partnership to sell, exchange, transfer or otherwise dispose of one or more of these ~~properties,~~shopping centers, it may be economically prohibitive for us to do so until the expiration of the applicable protection period ~~in 2027~~ because of these indemnity obligations. Moreover, these obligations may require us to cause the Operating Partnership to maintain more or different indebtedness than we would otherwise require for our business. As a result, the tax protection ~~agreement~~agreements could, during ~~its~~their term, restrict our ability to take actions or make decisions that otherwise would be in our best interests.

~~(1)We announced~~As described in Item 5. “Other Information”, our Board has approved the ~~commencement~~termination of the ~~Share Repurchase Program~~share repurchase program (“SRP”) ~~in August 2010. It has subsequently been amended, most recently in January 2021.~~

~~(2)~~We currently limit the dollar value and number of shares that may yet be repurchased under the SRP, as described in “Part II, Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters, and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 12, 2021.

~~(3)~~During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we repurchased approximately 54,000 shares for an aggregate purchase price of $0.5 million (average price of $8.75 per share) in connection with common shares surrendered to us to satisfy statutory minimum tax withholding obligations associated with the vesting of restricted stock awards under our equity-based compensation plan.

On March 25, 2021, our Board announced that we are reviewing alternatives in order to provide liquidity to our shareholders. In connection with the review process, the Fourth Amended and Restated SRP has been suspended, and the March 31, 2021 repurchases related to stockholder death, qualifying disability, or determination of incompetence (“DDI”) were not executed. The SRP for both standard and DDI requests will remain suspended until further notice..

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

~~Long-Term Incentive Award~~

On ~~April 29,~~August 4, 2021, as a result of our underwritten IPO, our Board approved the ~~Compensation Committee~~termination of the ~~Board of Directors of~~Dividend Reinvestment Plan (“DRIP”) and the ~~Company (the “Committee”) modified the Company’s long-term incentive program applicable~~SRP. The DRIP has been suspended since April 2021. The SRP, which was limited to Devin I. Murphy, President of the Company, and granted Mr. Murphy a long-term incentive award (the “2021 LTIP Award”) in the form of 41,143 fully vested Class B limited partnership units of Phillips Edison Grocery Center Operating Partnership I, L.P. and 123,429 performance-based Class C Units of Phillips Edison Grocery Center Operating Partnership I, L.P. (“Class C Units”).

In March 2019, the Compensation Committee granted Mr. Murphy a one-time long-term incentive award of performance-based Class C units (the “Special LTIP Award”) in order to drive long-term incremental revenue streamsrepurchases resulting from the ~~investment management business, focusing his efforts more on building recurring revenue than transaction-based fee income. In 2018, prior to approval~~death, qualifying disability, or the declaration of ~~the Special LTIP Award tied specifically to performance~~incompetence of the investment management business, the form of Mr. Murphy’s long-term incentive mirrored that of the other executives, consisting of an annual restricted time-based award, and a performance-based award. At the time the Special LTIP Award was granted, the Committee intended that the Special LTIP Award would be in lieu of any other long-term incentive awards to Mr. Murphy under the Company’s 2019 long-term incentive program. Several factors have led the Committee to reinstate an annual long-term incentive award, like those granted to each of the other executives, in addition to the Special LTIP, including: (1) continued focus on building recurring revenue streams from the investment management business; (2) further alignment of incentives across the executive team on 3-year Core FFO per share and Same-Center NOI growth; and (3) a market evaluation of Mr. Murphy’s total compensation package and structure, including but not limited to the retention value of the plan.

Mr. Murphy’s performance-based 2021 LTIP Award is earned based on the achievement of the following two equally-weighted performance metrics measured at the end of the three-year performance period commencing January 1,stockholders, has been suspended since March 2021, and ~~ending December 31, 2023: (i)~~ the Company’s three-year average Same-Center NOI growth measured against a peer group of eight public retail real estate investment trusts, and (ii) the Company’s three-year Core FFO per share growth measured against the same peer group. The maximum number of Class C Units earned under the performance-based 2021 LTIP Award cannot exceed two times the target number of Class C Units. One hundred percent of the Class C Units earned under the performance-based 2021 LTIP Award will vest when earned at the end of the three-year performance period. If Mr. Murphy’s employment terminatesSRP for any reason other than by the Company for cause, he will remain eligible to vest in the performance-based 2021 LTIP Award as follows: (i) if the termination occurs before 50% of the performance period has elapsed, a pro-rated portion of the award actually earned will vest based on performance at the end of the performance period, with the pro-ration calculated based on the ratio of the number of days employed during the performance period to the total number of days in the performance period, and (ii) if the termination occurs after 50% or more performance period has elapsed, 100% of the Class C Units that are actually earned at the end of the performance period will vest.standard repurchases had been suspended since August 2019.

The performance metrics, threshold, target, and maximum performance levels, and other terms of the performance-based 2021 LTIP Award are substantially similar to those applicable to similar performance-based long-term incentive awards granted to the Company’s other named executive officers and described in the Company’s proxy statement filed on April 9, 2021.

~~Estimated Value per Share~~

~~Valuation Overview~~—On April 29, 2021, the independent directors of our Board declared the estimated value per share (“EVPS”) of our common stock as $10.55. The valuation was based substantially on the estimated “as is” market value of our portfolio of real estate properties in various geographic locations in the United States as well as our pro rata share of those properties owned through our joint ventures (collectively, our “Portfolio”) and the estimated value of in-place contracts of our third-party asset management business as of March 31, 2021.

We provided the EVPS to assist broker-dealers that participated in our public offering in meeting their customer account statement reporting obligations under Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) Rule 2231. This valuation was performed in accordance with the provisions of Practice Guideline 2013-01, Valuations of Publicly Registered Non-Listed REITs, issued by the Institute for Portfolio Alternatives (“IPA”) in April 2013 (“IPA Valuation Guidelines”).

We engaged Duff & Phelps, LLC (“Duff & Phelps”), an independent valuation expert that has expertise in appraising commercial real estate assets, to provide a calculation of the range in EVPS of our common stock as of March 31, 2021. Duff & Phelps prepared a valuation report (“Valuation Report”) that provided this range based substantially on its estimate of the “as is” market value of the Portfolio and the estimated value of in-place contracts of the third-party asset management business. Duff & Phelps made adjustments to the aggregate estimated value of our Portfolio to reflect balance sheet assets and liabilities provided by our management as of March 31, 2021, before calculating a range of estimated values based on the number of outstanding shares of our common stock as of March 31, 2021. These calculations produced an EVPS in the range of $9.87 to $11.22 as of March 31, 2021, and the independent directors, after discussions with management, approved $10.55 as the EVPS as of March 31, 2021. We previously established an EVPS of $8.75 (as of March 31, 2020) on May 6, 2020 based substantially on the same methodology and process. We expect to review the EVPS at least annually.

~~The following table summarizes the material components of the EVPS of our common stock as of March 31, 2021 (in thousands, except per share amounts):~~

Our goal is to provide an estimate of the market value of our shares. However, the majority of our assets consist of commercial real estate, and as with any valuation methodology, the methodologies used were based upon a number of assumptions and estimates that may not have been accurate or complete. Different parties with different assumptions and estimates could have derived a different EVPS, and those differences could have been significant. These limitations are discussed further under “Limitations of Estimated Value per Share” below.

~~Valuation Methodologies~~—Our goal in calculating an EVPS was to arrive at a value that was reasonable and based off of what we deemed to be appropriate valuation and appraisal methodologies and assumptions and a process that was in accordance with the IPA Valuation Guidelines. The following is a summary of the valuation methodologies and components used to calculate the EVPS.

~~Independent Valuation Firm~~—We retained Duff & Phelps on February 11, 2021, as authorized by the independent directors of the Board, to provide independent valuation services. Duff & Phelps, who is not affiliated with us, is a leading global valuation advisor with expertise in complex valuation work. Duff & Phelps had previously provided services to us pertaining to the allocation of acquisition purchase prices for financial reporting purposes in connection with the Portfolio, for which it received usual and customary compensation. Duff & Phelps may be engaged to provide professional services to us in the future. The Duff & Phelps personnel who prepared the valuation had no present or prospective interest in the Portfolio and no personal interest with us.

Duff & Phelps’ engagement for its valuation services was not contingent upon developing or reporting predetermined results. In addition, Duff & Phelps’ compensation for completing the valuation services was not contingent upon the development or reporting of a predetermined value or direction in value that favors the cause of us, the amount of the value opinion, the attainment of a stipulated result, or the occurrence of a subsequent event directly related to the intended use of its Valuation Report. We agreed to indemnify Duff & Phelps against certain liabilities arising out of this engagement.

Duff & Phelps’ analyses, opinions, or conclusions were developed, and the Valuation Report was prepared, in conformity with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice. The Valuation Report was reviewed, approved and signed by individuals with the professional designation of MAI (Member of the Appraisal Institute). The use of the Valuation Report is subject to the requirements of the Appraisal Institute relating to review by its duly authorized representatives. Duff & Phelps did not inspect the properties that formed the Portfolio.

In preparing the Valuation Report, Duff & Phelps relied on information provided by us regarding the Portfolio. For example, we provided information regarding building size, year of construction, land size and other physical, financial, and economic characteristics. We also provided lease information, such as current rent amounts, rent commencement and expiration dates, and rent increase amounts and dates.

Duff & Phelps did not investigate the legal description or legal matters relating to the Portfolio, including title or encumbrances, and title to the properties was assumed to be good and marketable. The Portfolio was also assumed to be free and clear of liens, easements, encroachments and other encumbrances, and to be in full compliance with zoning, use, occupancy, environmental and similar laws unless otherwise stated by us. The Valuation Report contains other assumptions, qualifications and limitations that qualify the analysis, opinions and conclusions set forth therein. Furthermore, the prices at which our real estate properties may actually be sold could differ from their appraised values.

~~The foregoing is a summary of the standard assumptions, qualifications and limitations that generally apply to the Valuation Report.~~

~~Real Estate Portfolio Valuation~~—Duff & Phelps estimated the “as is” market values of the Portfolio as of March 31, 2021 using various methodologies. Generally accepted valuation practice suggests assets may be valued using a range of methodologies. Duff & Phelps utilized the income capitalization approach with support from the sales comparison approach for each property. The income approach was the primary indicator of value, with secondary consideration given to the sales approach. Duff & Phelps performed a study of each market to measure current market conditions, supply and demand factors, growth patterns, and their effect on each of the subject properties.

The income capitalization approach simulates the reasoning of an investor who views the cash flows that would result from the anticipated revenue and expense on a property throughout its lifetime. Under the income capitalization approach, Duff & Phelps used an estimated net operating income (“NOI”) for each property, and then converted it to a value indication using a discounted cash flow analysis. The discounted cash flow analysis focuses on the operating cash flows expected from a property and the anticipated proceeds of a hypothetical sale at the end of an assumed holding period, with these amounts then being discounted to their present value. The discounted cash flow method is appropriate for the analysis of investment properties with multiple leases, particularly leases with cancellation clauses or renewal options, and especially in volatile markets.

The sales comparison approach estimates value based on what other purchasers and sellers in the market have agreed to as a price for comparable improved properties. This approach is based upon the principle of substitution, which states that the limits of prices, rents and rates tend to be set by the prevailing prices, rents and rates of equally desirable substitutes. Duff & Phelps gathered comparable sales data throughout various markets as secondary support for its valuation estimate.

~~The following summarizes the upper and lower bounds of the average terminal capitalization rates and discount rates that were used to arrive at the estimated market values of our Portfolio:~~


			~~Range in Values~~
~~Terminal Capitalization Rate~~			~~6.77% - 7.27%~~
~~Discount Rate~~			~~7.38% - 7.88%~~

~~Management Company Valuation~~—Duff & Phelps estimated the aggregate market value associated with our third-party asset management business using various methodologies. Duff & Phelps considered various applications of the income approach, market approach, and underlying assets approach, with the income approach determined to be the most reliable method for purposes of the analysis. The income approach analysis considered the projected fee income earned for services provided pursuant to various management and advisory agreements over the expected duration of that contract, assuming normal and customary renewal provisions. Such services include property management services performed for the properties in the Portfolio, as well as property and asset management services for certain unaffiliated real estate investment portfolios. In performing this analysis, solely fee income related to properties owned as of March 31, 2021 was considered. The income approach also considered a reasonable level of expenses to support such activities, as well as other adjustments, and a discount rate that accounted for the time value of money and the risk of achieving the projected cash flows. All other assets

and liabilities acquired are short term in nature and therefore the carrying value is considered to approximate the fair value. The result of the income approach analysis was the aggregate market value of the third-party asset management business, from which an estimated market value of net tangible assets (liabilities) was subtracted (added), to result in the aggregate intangible value of the management company.

~~Sensitivity Analysis~~

—While we believe that Duff & Phelps’ assumptions and inputs were reasonable, a change in these assumptions would have impacted the calculations of the estimated value of the Portfolio, the estimated value of our third-party asset management business, and our EVPS. The table below illustrates the impact on Duff & Phelps’ range in EVPS if the terminal capitalization rates or discount rates were adjusted by 25 basis points and assumes all other factors remain unchanged. Additionally, the table illustrates the impact if only one change in assumptions was made, with all other factors held constant. Further, each of these assumptions could change by more than 25 basis points or 5%.

~~Other Assets and Other Liabilities~~—Duff & Phelps made adjustments to the aggregate estimated values of our investments to reflect our other assets and other liabilities based on balance sheet information provided by us as of March 31, 2021.

~~Role of the Independent Directors~~—The independent directors discussed the valuation process and results with representatives of Duff & Phelps. The independent directors also discussed the results, the Portfolio, the third-party asset management business, our other assets and liabilities, and other matters with management. Management recommended to the independent directors that $10.55 per share be approved as the EVPS of our common stock. The independent directors discussed the rationale for this value with management.

Following the independent directors’ discussion with Duff & Phelps and the recommendation of management, and in light of other factors considered by the independent directors, the independent directors concluded that the range in EVPS of $9.87 to $11.22 was appropriate. The independent directors agreed to accept the recommendation of management and approved $10.55 as the EVPS of our common stock as of March 31, 2021, which determination was ultimately and solely the responsibility of the independent directors.

~~Limitations of Estimated Value per Share~~—We are providing this EVPS to assist broker-dealers that participated in our public offering in meeting our customer account statement reporting obligations. This valuation was performed in accordance with the provisions of the IPA Valuation Guidelines. As with any valuation methodology, the methodologies used were based upon a number of estimates and assumptions that may not have been accurate or complete. Different parties with different assumptions and estimates could have derived a different EVPS, and this difference could have been significant. The EVPS is not audited and does not represent a determination of the fair value of our assets or liabilities based on accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), nor does it represent a liquidation value of our assets and liabilities, the price a third party would pay to acquire us, the price at which our shares of common stock would trade in secondary markets, or the amount at which our shares of common stock would trade on a national securities exchange.

~~Accordingly, we can give no assurance that:~~

•~~our shares would trade at or near the EVPS if listed on a national securities exchange;~~

•~~a stockholder would be able to resell his or her shares at the EVPS;~~

•~~a stockholder would ultimately realize distributions per share equal to the EVPS upon a liquidation of our assets and settlement of our liabilities;~~

•~~a stockholder would receive an amount per share equal to the EVPS upon a sale of the Company;~~

•~~a third party would offer the EVPS in an arm’s-length transaction to purchase all or substantially all of our shares of common stock;~~

•~~another independent third-party appraiser or third-party valuation firm would agree with our EVPS; or~~

•the methodologies used to calculate our EVPS would be acceptable to FINRA for use on customer account statements or that the EVPS will satisfy the applicable annual valuation requirements under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.

Further, we have not made any adjustments to the valuation of our EVPS for the impact of other transactions occurring subsequent to March 31, 2021, including, but not limited to, (1) acquisitions or dispositions of assets; (2) the issuance of common stock under the Dividend Reinvestment Plan (“DRIP”), which was suspended beginning with the distribution payable April 1, 2021; (3) NOI and dividends declared (see “Part I, Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Non-GAAP Measures - Same-Center Net Operating Income” of this filing on Form 10-Q for the calculation of NOI); (4) the repurchase of shares; and (5) changes in leases, tenancy, or other business and operational changes. The value of our shares of common stock will fluctuate over time in response to developments related to individual real estate assets, the management of those assets, and changes in the real estate and finance markets. Because of, among other factors, the high concentration of our total assets in real estate and the number of shares of our common stock outstanding, changes in the value of individual real estate assets or changes in valuation assumptions could have a very significant impact on the value of our shares of common stock. The EVPS does not take into account any disposition costs or fees for real estate properties, debt prepayment penalties that may be incurred upon the prepayment of certain of our debt obligations, or the impact of restrictions on the assumption of debt. Accordingly, the EVPS of our common stock may or may not be an accurate reflection of the fair market value of our stockholders’ investments and will not likely represent the amount of net proceeds that would result from an immediate sale of our assets.
