Annual Report
on Form 10-K
for the year ended
December 31, 2022
Dear Fellow Shareholders:
This past year, 2022, began with robust tailwinds for the retail REIT sector in terms of both operating
fundamentals and a supportive debt and equity market for transactions. Leasing demand showed consistent
strength and there was abundant liquidity available in the capital markets for the shopping center space. But
last March marked a significant shift in Fed policy when it announced its first rate hike in over four years.
This started a slow and steady decline in capital markets conditions. We were nimble prior to the capital
markets disruption and raised approximately $125 million of equity and acquired over $600 million (at
100%) in both Core and Fund assets. The forecasted rate hikes elevated real estate investor concerns both
due to the impact of increased rates on cash flow and the increased risk that Fed tightening would result in a
recession. Notwithstanding these headwinds, the fundamentals of our business remained strong.
Reminder of Who We are and How We are Different
We own and manage a diverse curated portfolio of open-air retail assets. Both our portfolio and our
operating model are highly differentiated from other owners of shopping centers. These two levels of
differentiation have served us well through cycles in terms of growth, opportunistic investing, and sourcing
capital. They also presented challenges during Covid.
First, with respect to our portfolio, while we own a diverse group of properties, we focus on owning high
growth, high barrier-to-entry markets where we use our core competencies and deep tenant relationships to
grow and harvest value. This strategy has led to the ownership of our attractive portfolio of street retail assets
located in the key, must-have urban corridors desired by both tenants and shoppers. Our street retail assets
are physical storefronts clustered in affluent, in-fill submarkets of gateway cities and include a highly
concentrated presence on well-known walkable areas such as SoHo in New York City, Williamsburg in
Brooklyn, Rush & Walton and Armitage in Chicago, Melrose Place in Los Angeles, Henderson Avenue in
Dallas and M Street in Georgetown, Washington DC. When compared with other open-air formats, street
retail assets have higher embedded contractual growth and typically benefit from higher market rent growth.
Approximately half of our Core Portfolio is comprised of street retail properties.
Second, as to our operating model, we own, manage, and operate what we refer to as a “dual platform”
which features both our Core Portfolio, which is substantially owned by Acadia, and our Fund Portfolio,
which is owned by a series of private investment funds, where Acadia is the managing member and also
invests in the Funds alongside of our institutional partners. The Fund Portfolio is also comprised of a
relatively diverse group of open-air retail assets that have a value-add and/or opportunistic component, have
a shorter hold duration and are operated with higher leverage. The Funds invest in assets across the capital
stack and investments have included taking positions in retailer restructurings. Our Fund platform leverages
our retail skill set and experience while utilizing discretionary fund vehicles and third-party capital. This
structure allows us to access private capital when it is more advantageous to do so and invest
opportunistically which benefits both the third-party capital and our public shareholders.
Irrespective of whether it is a Core asset or a Fund asset, in 2022, tenant demand and tenant performance
were very strong, and based on current retailer sentiment, our portfolio is on track for strong multi-year
growth.
Our leasing activity in 2022 was strong in terms of both volume and rent levels achieved. Across our Core
Portfolio, occupancy increased year-over-year by 270 basis points to 92.7%.
Fundamentals
And this momentum continues in 2023. In fact, when looking at our current leasing pipeline, activity remains
on track with our prior forecasts, and we have not seen any meaningful fallout in tenant demand.
Our successful leasing wins and occupancy gains have translated into solid internal growth with our 2022
same-store NOI growth coming in at 6.3%, which compares with the average among shopping centers of
4.5%. And given the embedded growth in our Core Portfolio, we are projecting same-store NOI growth in
2023 at 5% - 6%; the midpoint of 5.5% compares with our peer average 2023 guidance of 2.1%.
Our tenants expanding their physical store presence range from luxury to value/off price retailers and from
established retailers to new exciting brands. For example, last year we signed two leases with Alo Yoga, a
very popular and successful brand. Alo is coming to M Street in Georgetown Washington DC - another
positive sign for the resurgence of that corridor. The second lease will bring Alo to 717 North Michigan
Avenue in Chicago (a Fund asset) - a positive vote of confidence for that slower-to-recover corridor. On the
luxury side, we expanded Watches of Switzerland on Greenwich Avenue in Connecticut. Greenwich Avenue
has thrived through and after the COVID crises.
Notwithstanding this progress, we are keeping an eye on the economic data and capital markets sentiment,
which has been recently sending mixed signals about the strength and durability of the consumer and thus the
impact on our retailors. While we are not (yet) seeing signs of any weakness in our results and tenant
performance, we built into our budgets a higher level of tenant disruption in 2023 as compared to what
transpired last year. However, this increase is coming off of record low levels, and we expect that our leasing
gains will more than compensate for this disruption.
Street Portfolio will be a Unique Growth Driver
While some of our sub-markets and street retail corridors such as Greenwich Avenue benefitted from a
“stay-close-to-home COVID boost”, other of our markets were hit very hard during the pandemic. Our street
assets in major cities such as Downtown Chicago, SoHo in New York City, Melrose Place in Los Angeles,
and M Street in Georgetown, Washington DC were all negatively impacted. Thankfully, in 2022, after
several challenging years, we saw significant improvements in the majority of the corridors where we are
active. In fact, to the surprise of many casual observers, many of our streets are already performing better (in
terms of both market rents and tenant performance) than before COVID. People returned to shopping in
stores after several years of on-line delivery. And people returned to shopping long before they returned to
the office. Furthermore, since we are still in the early stages of a rebound in these locations, we see several
years of above-trend growth.
Looking forward, our tenants are not ignoring the potential macro-economic challenges over the next year.
But in our conversations with retailers, they indicate they remain committed to their 2024 and 2025 store
openings. They are looking past the near-term cyclical headwinds and are executing leases for preferred
locations based on their medium-and long-term expectations. All of this simply reinforces our view that our
internal growth forecasts for 2023 and beyond remain on-track and suggests that fundamentals feel more
resilient today than at this point in prior cycles. There are a few likely reasons for this:
First, the headwinds from secular concerns of the so-called Retail Armageddon have passed – during
the period from 2016 to 2019 there was a persistent narrative that e-commerce was going to render
physical stores irrelevant. The repudiation of this storyline is now a tailwind. While the sentiment is
important, the data supports this as well. The Census Bureau reported that, as of the fourth quarter of
2022, e-commerce as a percentage of total sales was at 14.7% - a level which has remained relatively
flat over the last couple years and is down from the COVID peak of 16.4% in the second quarter of
2020. As we have been discussing for several years, retailers now universally recognize that the
physical store, especially in mission critical locations, is the most important and profitable channel
for their execution in an omni channel world.
Second, there is a scarcity of high-quality space. Against the backdrop of a lack of new development,
the growth in the importance of direct-to-consumer stores means that retailers are increasingly
choosing to add key stores to connect with their customers directly, at the same time that supply is
diminishing.
Third, and somewhat specific to our portfolio, our continued internal growth is being driven most
significantly from that portion of our portfolio that is still in the early stages of recovery, and, thus
has room to run. This above-average internal growth will be driven by a combination of occupancy
gains, lease structure and market rent improvements:
i. Occupancy Gains. All occupancy gains are not created equal. While overall we are about
95% leased in the entire portfolio, within that, our much higher dollar rent and value street
and urban portfolio is only 87% occupied and 90% leased. Based on continued leasing
momentum, and the early stages of the rebound in our street and urban markets, we are well
positioned for multi-year occupancy growth for this portion of our portfolio.
ii. Lease Structure. Street leases typically have higher annual contractual bumps than other
retail formats – our street portfolio currently has average annual lease bumps of about 3%
which is about 100-150 basis points higher than what is typical for other open air lease
formats. This structure results in internal growth over 10 years in a street lease of about 30%
versus about 14% for a typical suburban lease.
iii. Market Rent Growth. Looking forward, while scarcity and tenant demand is true throughout
the majority of our portfolio, both urban and suburban, the greatest market rent rebound is
now occurring in our street and urban corridors, where after several challenging years,
prospective tenants are showing up. And given the recovery in sales performance in those
corridors, we are once again seeing competition among desirable retailers for the best
locations. While retail rents have rebounded to pre-pandemic levels in many of our streets,
rents remain well below prior peak levels of five to ten years ago, even though many retailers’
sales are starting to approach those prior peaks. In SoHo, for example, market rents have
rebounded significantly over the past year, but are still 30%-50% below prior peaks. Our
current in-place rents in SoHo are up over 10% from a year ago, and our properties here are
91% leased (up from 76% a year ago). Our new SoHo leases in 2022 included Staud,
Outerknown, Restore Wellness, and a long-term extension with Faherty – all exemplifying the
sustained recovery in SoHo. Finally, while we are not rooting for a high inflationary
environment, to the extent that inflation does run hot, that will be a tailwind for street retail
market rent growth.
We Anticipate Multi-Year Above-Trend Growth
For the reasons listed above, our existing Core Portfolio is projected to deliver attractive, multi-year internal
NOI growth ranging from 5% to 10% annually during the period 2023 through 2026. And this growth is after
taking into account potential headwinds from anticipated tenant move-outs. Do we see any specific signs of
weakness so far in 2023? No, we do not – the leasing pipeline remains robust and tenant collections have not
wavered. But we are cognizant of the broader economic cross-currents we read about every day, and we are
trying to project conservatively.
Even with this conservatism, we are forecasting FFO growth of 2.1% in 2023 following 7.2% in 2022. And
when we step back and look at our normalized earnings growth after excluding the noise of heavy cash
collections of prior COVID-period rents in 2022 and 2021, our FFO growth in 2023 would be 5.8%
following 7.7% in 2022. In short, while predicting the future feels risky after the last few years, from an
earnings perspective, it now looks like the noise of the last few years is behind us and we are in a position
where our strong NOI growth should translate into earnings growth.
While I highlighted above the upside coming from our street retail portfolio, our suburban portfolio is also
performing well. We signed BJ’s Wholesale Club at a triple-digit rent spread at our Crossroads Shopping
Center in Westchester, New York. Other notable leases in the suburban portfolio included Ever/Body, DD’s
(a Ross concept) and Aspen Dental. Overall, as compared with last year, our suburban portfolio occupancy
increased 270 basis points to 94.1% and the average in-place rent per square foot increased 2.6%.
Also, our more recent acquisitions on the Henderson Avenue corridor in Dallas and 8833 Beverly in Los
Angeles have embedded upside that we expect to generate with our intensive management and our pursuit of
repositioning opportunities.
What About the Highly Publicized Tenant Issues?
As I indicated earlier, we are budgeting for a higher level of tenant disruption in 2023 than in 2022. In fact,
our earnings growth expectation of 5.8% in 2023 (excluding the impact of prior period cash rents) bakes in a
general credit reserve of about 2x our typical actual credit loss (excluding the pandemic years), despite not
yet seeing early signs of tenant stress. We have additionally reserved for known tenant issues, and it’s worthy
for me to address one here.
We have two Bed, Bath & Beyond stores in our Core Portfolio. The first is located at our Brandywine Town
Center in Wilmington, Delaware. We already have a fully executed lease with a national high credit
favorable tenant. The second Bed, Bath store is located at our urban shopping center at 555 9th Street in
downtown San Francisco. This property is already going through a long-planned major redevelopment.
Previously the upper level of this center did not have direct shopper access points and was only used as
auxiliary parking. Our redevelopment will turn the second level into its own open-air center with parking and
pedestrian access. In the fourth quarter of 2022, we signed a lease with the Container Store in a key location
with its entry on the second level of this center. This lease will allow us to activate the entire second floor,
with an accretive redevelopment plan of building-out a new community of shops in the upper-level space
currently controlled by Bed, Bath.
Capital Markets and Investment
From a capital markets perspective, as the Fed followed through on its commitment to fight inflation and
raise rates, typical costs for 10-year secured mortgages increased from about 4% to about 5.75%. As base
borrowing rates escalated, along with the volatility in spreads, both buyers and sellers of real estate re-
trenched – buyers trying to make deals pencil and making assumptions on the cost of permanent capital, and
sellers reflecting on whether the wider bid-ask spread would narrow in their favor or if the corresponding
step-up in cap rates was greater than they feared.
Notably, in early 2022, prior to the increase in the cost of debt, we were able to complete several strategic
and accretive investments totaling $430 million. These investments included:
Entered the Dallas market with our portfolio acquisition on Henderson Avenue. This collection of
shops also includes future development and redevelopment sites. It is located in the heart of rapidly
growing East Dallas, and in proximity to the city's most affluent communities of Highland Park,
University Park, Uptown and Lakewood. This avenue is one of the few walkable destinations in the
city and offers residents and visitors a unique, authentic district experience in a predominantly car-
centric metro. We intend to upgrade this corridor with our partner.
Entered Williamsburg, Brooklyn with the acquisition of a series of 11 retail storefronts and 23
residential units on Bedford Ave. Williamsburg has emerged as one of the leading retail submarkets
in New York City, fueled by robust tenant expansion and increasing residential density.
Added a flagship corner property at Spring and Greene Street to our SoHo portfolio, which is proving
out to be one of the most high-growth submarkets in the New York City Metro area.
Added a second street-retail corridor in Los Angeles with an acquisition on Beverly Boulevard, a
five-minute drive from our Melrose Place collection. This West Hollywood submarket continues to
be desired by design, fashion and restaurant retailers and benefits from high income and supply
constrained corridors.
Increased our ownership and stake in City Point, our 550,000 square foot flagship retail property in
Downtown Brooklyn.
Later in 2022, given the extreme shifts in the debt market and REIT equity market, there were fewer
actionable opportunities, and as it relates to Core acquisitions, we remained on the sidelines. But we were
able to harvest gains with opportunistic sales. For example, in the fourth quarter of 2022, we were able to sell
an urban asset with minimal growth in Boston at a sub-5% cap, which provided an accretive source of
capital. While we do not expect the disposition market to be particularly deep, where we can
opportunistically monetize assets, with minimal (if any) impact on our earnings, we will continue to do so.
Balance Sheet
We have a conservative balance sheet with no material scheduled unsecured Core debt maturities through
2026. Our current weighted average interest rate in our Core is 4.24% and substantially all of that debt is
fixed through 2026 and beyond utilizing long-dated interest rate swaps with expirations extending through
2030. Thus, our earnings are well protected against rising interest costs which sets us up for strong bottom-
line earnings growth as we execute on our internal growth for the next several years.
Given the multiple drivers of our business, whether it be from the retained cash flow from our portfolio,
profitable Core and Fund monetizations, or repayments from our lending business, we are on track to
generate excess cash proceeds equivalent to about 10% to 15% of our Core debt within the next year or so.
We will use these proceeds to deleverage a bit on an earnings neutral basis and to strategically pursue
accretive investment activities. We have a near term target of achieving a 6x Core debt-to-EBITDA ratio.
Funds Platform
Our Funds platform had very productive investment activity in 2022. Last year, we were able to both put
new dollars to work and successfully sell several assets. In fact, we were net sellers, with about $180 million
of investments and $250 million of dispositions.
In the fourth quarter, we completed the Fund IV disposition of Promenade at Manassas generating a 17%
IRR and a 2.2x multiple on the Fund's equity investment. In terms of new investments, with the remaining
equity in Fund V, we have about $250 million of gross acquisition capacity. We will remain disciplined
going forward, and we anticipate that there will be good opportunities and thus expect to add to the strong
gains already embedded in Fund V investments.
In early 2023, we made a Fund V acquisition of Mohawk Commons for $61 million. We believe that the
strong going-in yield at this property, a grocery-anchored center with a solid credit tenancy, reflects
appropriate pricing in a period of relative uncertainty. We acquired this asset along with the existing
operating partner DLC Management Corp, with which we have done several successful deals. Concurrent
with the closing, we locked in a new attractive fixed rate non-recourse mortgage with a local bank. We are
expecting a going-in levered cash return in the mid-teens and a levered IRR consistent with prior Fund
investments.
As indicated above, we increased our ownership stake in City Point during 2022 where we continue to
successfully execute on our business plan and our lease up and stabilization targets remain intact. City Point
is located at the center of a densifying Downtown Brooklyn, which has seen approximately 18,000 new
residential units since the area was rezoned. While there is still significant construction and improvements
occurring around this project, we have completed a significant amount of leasing. Primark opened at City
Point in December, and it was viewed as a ‘game-changer’ for the entire retail trade area. Primark’s
spectacularly well-received opening drove both foot traffic and sales volumes exceeding our expectations.
With the addition of Primark and the previously announced expansion of Alamo Drafthouse, we are about
60% occupied and 90% leased on the upper floors.
Last year saw the realization of a highly profitable investment made through one of our early generation
Funds. Along with a consortium of several other investors, in 2006 we made an investment in the
recapitalization of Albertsons supermarkets, which was at the time the nation’s second largest operator of
grocery stores with more than 2,500 stores in 37 states. Fund II held about 4 million shares of Albertsons, of
which Acadia's pro rata ownership was about 1.5 million shares. Based on the Albertsons share price at the
time of this publication, our Albertsons investment delivered about a 10x equity multiple on the Fund’s
original $24 million equity investment.
Our experienced and cycle tested management team has a proven track record of raising, managing and
profitably deploying institutional third-party capital that meets a diverse group of private capital returns
expectations. We have built deep trust-based relationships from a wide variety of investors, whether it be
institutional investors, family offices or high-net-worth individuals. Our long-standing successful history of
managing capital in the private markets has greatly benefitted our investors and public shareholders and we
consider this to be a core competency of Acadia.
ESG and People
We seek to drive financial performance while engaging in environmentally and socially responsible business
practices grounded in sound corporate governance. We believe that integrating ESG considerations into how
we manage our business will help drive performance and create long-term value for Acadia and our
stakeholders. We are proud to share some of our most notable recent ESG developments and
accomplishments:
Governance
o Our Board of Trustees is committed to ongoing Board refreshment and seeks to maintain a
diverse Board primarily comprised of independent Trustees who represent a mix of varied
experience, backgrounds, tenure and skills to ensure a broad range of perspectives is
represented. In 2021, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee formally
committed in its charter to seek to include candidates with a diversity of race, ethnicity and
gender in the pool from which it selects Trustee candidates.
o Since 2021, we have added three independent Trustees to the Board, two of whom represent
gender or racial and/or ethnic diversity. Currently two of our eight independent Trustees
standing for election represent gender diversity (following the recent retirement of a third
female independent Trustee in January 2023) and one independent Trustee represents racial
and/or ethnic diversity.
Environmental
o We have established a Greenhouse Gas (GHG) reduction goal and demonstrated that we are
on-track to accomplish a 20% reduction by end of 2024 (with a 2019 baseline).
o We were named a 2022 Green Lease Leader by the Institute for Market Transformation/the
U.S. Department of Energy’s Better Buildings Alliance and achieved Gold Status in making
our properties more sustainable.
o In 2022, we completed upgrades to parking lot LED lighting and smart lighting controls, and
smart irrigation controls at substantially all properties with landlord-controlled parking lots to
further our efficiency and conservation within our portfolio.
o We are building the resiliency of our portfolio to the physical and transition risks of climate
change.
o This year, we are developing our long-term GHG emissions reduction goal and the strategy
required to execute and reach that goal.
Social
o I believe that DEI are fundamental values of our business and that our potential for success is
maximized by having a diverse workforce that is reflective of our society and the
communities we serve. Our DEI Program is focused on fostering a professional environment
that fully embraces individuals with varied backgrounds, cultures, races, identities, ages,
perspectives, beliefs, and values. The four pillars of our DEI Program are awareness,
acknowledgment, acceptance and advancement, and our mission is to raise awareness of
systemic inequities and promote initiatives to dismantle any such inequities.
o Our current goals are to increase the diversity of our workforce by achieving at least 1/3
gender and/or ethnic or racial diversity in our summer internship program which provides an
opportunity for full employment and to increase diversity of our vendors and contractors.
o We have cultivated a Great Place to Work! And we have just been certified as such for the
fourth year.
o Watching our team members advance is, by far, the best part of my job. As a testament to the
strength and depth of our senior and junior management team, we had 19 promotions effective
earlier this year. Our promotions were in accounting, legal, property management,
acquisitions, development and IT and included 3 members of our senior leadership team, 4
promotions to VP-level, 2 promotions to director-level, and 10 promotions to more senior
positions across departments. Promotions included:
Jason Blacksberg (Executive Vice President, Chief Legal Officer); Reggie Livingston
(Senior Vice President, Chief Investment Officer); Heather Moore (Senior Vice
President, Leasing Operations and Chief Compliance Officer); Kevin Fitzgerald (Vice
President, Controller); Antonella Pomara (Vice President and Assistant General
Counsel); Tenisha Rencher (Vice President, Property Management Coordination); and
Lesley Valente (Vice President, Human Resources).
At this time, I want to extend my appreciation to our entire team of approximately 115 people and our Board,
who have all worked hard this past year on behalf of all our company’s stakeholders.
In Conclusion
I cannot conclude this letter without acknowledging my disappointment in Acadia’s valuation and stock
performance. And I recognize that it is not good enough to say that I and other members of the team are
experiencing the same returns as the rest of the shareholder base given our ownership stake in the Company.
But that is true nonetheless.
While Acadia’s stock price was impacted by the retail-wide negative sentiment associated so-called Retail
Armageddon, and then the operations of our portfolio were disproportionately affected by the COVID
Shutdowns in urban areas, for the reasons outlined above I believe that Acadia is well positioned to
outperform as these same markets rebound, we experience above-trend NOI growth, and this growth
translates into earnings growth. Moreover, as we begin to see signs of interesting new investment
opportunities, we will make sure we are positioned to create external earnings growth on top of our strong
internal growth.
I along with the team are committed to working hard on the fundamentals that we control, and I am
optimistic that the broader public markets will ultimately recognize our embedded growth and value.
Thank you for your continued support, and healthy regards,
Kenneth F. Bernstein

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
GENERAL
PART I
Acadia Realty Trust (the “Company”) was formed on March 4, 1993 as a Maryland real estate investment trust (“REIT”). All references to “Acadia,” “we,”
“us,” “our” and “Company” refer to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. We are a fully integrated REIT focused on the ownership, acquisition,
development, and management of high-quality retail properties located primarily in high-barrier-to-entry, supply-constrained, densely populated
metropolitan areas in the United States. We currently own or have an ownership interest in these properties through our Core Portfolio (as defined below).
We generate additional growth through our Funds (as defined below) in which we co-invest with high-quality institutional investors.
All of our assets are held by, and all of our operations are conducted through, Acadia Realty Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) and entities
in which the Operating Partnership owns an interest. As of December 31, 2022, the Company controlled approximately 95% of the Operating Partnership
as the sole general partner. As the general partner, the Company is entitled to share, in proportion to its percentage interest,
in the cash distributions and profits and losses of the Operating Partnership. The limited partners primarily represent entities or individuals that contributed
their interests in certain properties or entities to the Operating Partnership in exchange for common or preferred units of limited partnership interest
(“Common OP Units” or “Preferred OP Units,” respectively, and collectively, “OP Units”) and employees who have been awarded restricted Common OP
Units as long-term incentive compensation (“LTIP Units”). Limited partners holding Common OP and LTIP Units are generally entitled to exchange their
units on a one-for-one basis for our common shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (“Common Shares”). This structure
is referred to as an umbrella partnership REIT, or “UPREIT.”
BUSINESS OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGIES
Our primary business objective is to acquire and manage commercial retail properties that will provide cash for distributions to shareholders while also
creating the potential for capital appreciation to enhance investor returns. We focus on the following fundamentals to achieve this objective:
•
•
Own and operate a portfolio of high-quality retail properties located primarily in high-barrier-to-entry, densely populated metropolitan areas
(“Core Portfolio”). Our goal is to create value through accretive development and re-tenanting activities within our existing portfolio and
grow this platform through the acquisition of high-quality assets that have the long-term potential to outperform the asset class.
Generate additional growth through our Funds (as defined below) in which we co-invest with high-quality institutional investors. Our Fund
strategy focuses on opportunistic yet disciplined acquisitions with high inherent opportunity for the creation of additional value. We execute
on this opportunity and realize value through the sale of these assets. In connection with this strategy, we focus on:
▪
▪
▪
value-add investments in street retail properties, located in established and “next-generation” submarkets, with re-tenanting or
repositioning opportunities,
opportunistic acquisitions of well-located real estate anchored by distressed retailers, and
other opportunistic acquisitions, which vary based on market conditions and may include high-yield acquisitions and purchases
of distressed debt.
Some of these investments historically have also included, and may in the future include joint ventures with private equity investors for the
purpose of making investments in operating retailers with significant embedded value in their real estate assets.
•
Maintain a strong and flexible balance sheet through conservative financial practices while ensuring access to sufficient capital to fund future
growth.
Investment Strategy — Generate External Growth through our Dual Platforms: Core Portfolio and Funds
The objective that acquisitions be accretive on a long-term basis based on our cost of capital, as well as increase the overall Core Portfolio quality and
value, is a key strategic consideration to the growth of our Core Portfolio. As such, we constantly evaluate the blended cost of equity and debt and adjust
the amount of acquisition activity to align the level of investment activity with capital flows.
Given the growing importance of technology and e-commerce, many of our retail tenants are appropriately focused on omni-channel sales and how to best
utilize e-commerce initiatives to drive sales at their stores. Considering these initiatives, we have found retailers are becoming more selective as to the
location, size and format of their next-generation stores and are focused on dense, high-traffic retail corridors, where they can utilize smaller and more
productive formats closer to their shopping population. Accordingly, our focus for Core Portfolio and Fund acquisitions is on those properties which we
believe will not only remain relevant to our tenants but become even more so in the future.
In addition to our Core Portfolio investments in real estate assets, we have also capitalized on our expertise in the acquisition, development, leasing, and
management of retail real estate by establishing discretionary opportunity funds. Our Fund platform is an investment vehicle where the Operating
Partnership invests, along with outside institutional investors, including, but not limited to, endowments, foundations, pension funds and investment
management companies, in primarily opportunistic and value-add retail real estate. To date, we have launched five funds (“Funds”); Acadia Strategic
Opportunity Fund, LP (“Fund I,” which was liquidated in 2015), Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund II, LLC (“Fund II”), Acadia Strategic Opportunity
Fund III LLC (“Fund III”), Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund IV LLC (“Fund IV”) and Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund V LLC (“Fund V,” and our
“current fund”). Due to our level of control, we consolidate these Funds for financial reporting purposes. Fund I and Fund II have also included investments
5
in operating companies through Acadia Mervyn Investors I, LLC (“Mervyns I,” which was liquidated in 2018), Acadia Mervyn Investors II, LLC
(“Mervyns II”) and, in certain instances, directly through Fund II, all on a non-recourse basis. These investments comprise, and are referred to as, the
Company's Retailer Controlled Property Venture (“RCP Venture”).
The Operating Partnership is the sole general partner or managing member of the Funds and Mervyns II and earns priority distributions or fees for asset
management, property management, construction, development, leasing, and legal services. Cash flows from the Funds and the RCP Venture are
distributed pro-rata to their respective partners and members (including the Operating Partnership) until each receives a certain cumulative return
(“Preferred Return”), and the return of all capital contributions. Thereafter, remaining cash flows are distributed 20% to the Operating Partnership
(“Promote”) and 80% to the partners or members (including the Operating Partnership).
See Note 1 to Consolidated Financial Statements for a detailed discussion of the Funds.
Capital Strategy — Balance Sheet Focus and Access to Capital
Our primary capital objective is to maintain a strong and flexible balance sheet through conservative financial practices, including moderate use of leverage
within our Core Portfolio, while ensuring access to sufficient capital to fund future growth. We intend to continue financing acquisitions and property
development and redevelopment with sources of capital determined by management to be the most appropriate based on, among other factors, availability
in current capital markets, pricing, and other commercial and financial terms. Such sources of capital may include the issuance of public equity, unsecured
debt, mortgage and construction loans, and other capital alternatives including the issuance of OP Units. We manage our interest rate risk through the use
of fixed-rate debt and, where we use variable-rate debt, through the use of certain derivative instruments, including Secured Overnight Financing Rate
(“SOFR”) and London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) swap agreements and interest rate caps as discussed further in Item 7A of this Report.
We maintain a share repurchase program that authorizes management, at its discretion, to repurchase up to $200.0 million of outstanding Common Shares.
The program may be discontinued or extended at any time. We repurchased 1,219,065 shares for $22.4 million, inclusive of fees, during the year ended
December 31, 2020. We did not repurchase any shares during the years ended December 31, 2022 or 2021. As of December 31, 2022, management may
repurchase up to approximately $122.5 million of Common Shares under the program. See Note 10.
We also maintain an at-the-market equity issuance program (the "ATM Program") that provides us with an efficient and low-cost vehicle for raising capital
through public equity issuances on an as-we-go basis to fund our capital needs. Through the ATM Program, we have been able to effectively “match-fund”
a portion of the required capital for our Core Portfolio and Fund acquisitions through the issuance of Common Shares over extended periods employing a
price averaging strategy. In addition, from time to time, we have issued and intend to continue to issue equity in follow-on offerings separate from our
ATM Program. Net proceeds raised through our ATM Program and follow-on offerings are primarily used for acquisitions, both for our Core Portfolio and
our pro-rata share of Fund acquisitions and for other general corporate purposes. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we issued 5,525,419 Common
Shares under our ATM Program for gross proceeds of $123.9 million. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we issued 2,889,371 Common Shares
under our ATM Program for gross proceeds of $64.9 million. No such issuances were made during 2020. See Note 10.
Operating Strategy — Experienced Management Team with Proven Track Record
Our senior management team has decades of experience in the real estate industry. We have capitalized on our expertise in the acquisition,
development/redevelopment, leasing, and management of retail real estate by creating value through property development/redevelopment, re-tenanting
and establishing joint ventures, such as the Funds, in which we earn, in addition to a return on our equity interest, promotes, priority distributions and fees.
Operating functions such as leasing, property management, construction, finance and legal are generally provided by our personnel, providing for a
vertically integrated operating platform.
INVESTING ACTIVITIES
See Item 2. Properties for a description of the properties in our Core and Fund portfolios. See Significant Developments under Item 7. Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for a detailed discussion of our consolidated and unconsolidated acquisitions,
dispositions and financing activity for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Core Portfolio
Our Core Portfolio consists primarily of high-quality street retail and urban assets, as well as suburban properties located in high-barrier-to-entry, trade
areas.
As we typically hold our Core Portfolio properties for long-term investment, we review our portfolio and implement programs to renovate and re-tenant
targeted properties to enhance their market position. This in turn is expected to strengthen the competitive position of our leasing department to attract and
retain quality tenants, increasing cash flow, and consequently, property values. From time to time, we also identify certain properties for disposition and
redeploy the capital for acquisitions and for the repositioning of existing properties with greater potential for capital appreciation.
Funds
Our Fund investments consist of suburban shopping centers and urban retail assets structured as wholly-owned or jointly-owned investments.
Structured Finance Program
6
We also make investments in first mortgages and other notes receivable collateralized by real estate, (which we refer to as our Structured Finance Program)
either directly or through entities having an ownership interest therein.
Development and Redevelopment Activities
As part of our investing strategy, we invest in real estate assets that may require significant development. In addition, certain assets may require
redevelopment to meet the demand of changing markets. As of December 31, 2022, there were two Fund and two Core Portfolio development projects and
five Core Portfolio redevelopment projects. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we placed a portion of two Fund development properties into
service and placed two Core properties into development. See Item 2. Properties—Development Activities and Note 2.
GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS AND ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS
We are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations, including environmental laws and regulations. As of the date of this Report, we do not
expect the cost of compliance with such laws and regulations to have a material impact on our capital expenditures, earnings, or competitive position. See
Item 1A. Risk Factors — Risks Related to Litigation, Environmental Matters and Governmental Regulation.
We may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances at our property sites, as well as certain other potential
costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances (including government fines and penalties and damages for injuries to persons and adjacent property). These
laws may impose liability without regard to whether we knew of, or were responsible for, the presence or disposal of those substances. This liability may be
imposed on us in connection with the activities of an operator of, or tenant at our properties. The cost of any required remediation, removal, fines or
personal or property damages and our liability therefore could exceed the value of the property and/or our aggregate assets. In addition, the presence of
such substances, or the failure to properly dispose of or remove such substances, may adversely impact our ability to sell or rent an affected property or to
borrow using that property as collateral, which, in turn, would reduce our revenues and ability to make distributions.
Our existing properties, as well as properties we may acquire, as commercial facilities, are required to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act of
1990, as amended (the "ADA"). See Item 1A. Risk Factors — Compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and fire, safety and other regulations
may require us to make unplanned expenditures that could adversely affect our financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
In addition, we may become subject to new compliance requirements and/or new costs or taxes associated with natural resource or energy usage and related
emissions (such as a carbon tax), which could increase our operating costs. Compliance with new laws or regulations related to climate change may require
us to make improvements to our existing properties or pay additional taxes and fees assessed on us or our properties. See Item 1A. Risk Factors — Climate
change, natural disasters or health crises could adversely affect our properties and business.
CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS
Our executive office is located at 411 Theodore Fremd Avenue, Suite 300, Rye, New York 10580, and our telephone number is (914) 288-8100.
HUMAN CAPITAL
We recognize that our ability to achieve the high standards we set for our company can best be accomplished by curating a diverse team of top talent. We
are committed to fostering an energized and motivated workforce through programs and benefits that promote employee satisfaction, advancement, equity,
and inclusion.
As of December 31, 2022, we had 115 employees, of whom 94 were located at our executive office and 21 were located at regional property management
offices. During 2022, our total turnover rate was approximately 23%. None of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements and
management believes that its relationship with employees is good.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Diversity, equity, and inclusion (“DEI”) are fundamental values of our business. We believe that our potential for success is maximized by having a diverse
workforce that is reflective of our society and the communities we serve.
As of December 31, 2022, women represent 50% of our employees, 32% of our management-level positions and 22% of the independent trustees on our
board of trustees (the "Board"), and racially and ethnically diverse individuals represent 25% of our employees, 24% of our management-level positions,
and 11% of the independent trustees on our Board.
Our DEI Program is focused on fostering a professional environment that fully embraces individuals with varied backgrounds, cultures, races, identities,
ages, perspectives, beliefs, and values. The four pillars of our DEI Program are awareness, acknowledgment, acceptance and advancement, and our mission
is to raise awareness of systemic inequities and promote initiatives to dismantle any such inequities. Through education and awareness – including
compulsory unconscious bias training and training dedicated to allyship in 2022 – we are working to establish a corporate culture that is characterized by
respect, acceptance, and inclusivity. We believe that we have an individual and institutional responsibility to observe, promote and protect DEI principles.
As part of our commitment to promoting DEI principles, we signed the CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion pledge in 2020, which brings together more
than 2,400 CEOs who have pledged to, among other initiatives: (i) cultivate environments that support open dialogue on DEI; (ii) implement unconscious
bias education and training; (iii) share DEI programs and initiatives; and (iv) engage boards when developing and evaluating DEI strategies.
We are committed to providing equal employment opportunities without regard to any actual or perceived characteristic protected by applicable local, state
or federal laws, rules, or regulations.

Employee Engagement
We have been recognized as a Great Place to Work® based on employee satisfaction surveys for three consecutive years. We analyze the survey results to
identify opportunity areas for enhancing employee satisfaction and engagement.
Training and Development
We believe in investing in talent at all levels within our organization. Whether through property tours that allow employees to learn about the projects they
work on, or through access to online learning tutorials, employees are encouraged to take full advantage of professional development opportunities.
Our senior management team focuses on succession planning for senior leadership and business unit lead roles and presents a succession plan to our Board
annually.
We are committed to building our own talent pipeline. Through our summer internship program, we hope to plant the seeds for future growth and
innovation. This program offers hands-on experience to students looking to specialize in the retail real estate industry and offers our company a fresh
perspective. We attempt to recruit diverse candidates for our internship program through partnerships with external organizations.
Health and Wellness
All employees are eligible to participate in our Wellness Program which advocates for and provides resources regarding nutrition, exercise, mental health,
and workplace ergonomics. We value the importance of personal growth and encourage employees to participate in company events, health initiatives and
training courses.
We offer a comprehensive benefits package to all employees.
ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE (“ESG”)
Achievements and Initiatives
We seek to drive financial performance while engaging in environmentally and socially responsible business practices grounded in sound corporate
governance. Our ESG program is overseen by the Board’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (“NCG Committee”). The NCG Committee
periodically reviews our ESG strategy, practices and policies, receives regular updates from management regarding our ESG activities and reports to the
full Board for further discussion and evaluation as needed and appropriate. Day-to-day management of our ESG program, including developing and
guiding the implementation of our ESG initiatives, is performed by our full-time dedicated Director of ESG and our internal ESG Committee, comprised of
senior leaders and representatives from various departments. The ESG Committee meets regularly, at least quarterly, and provides periodic updates on our
ESG program to our Chief Executive Officer and the Board.
We maintain a robust Enterprise Risk Management (“ERM”) plan to identify and formulate responses to the most critical risks to operations, including
those related to climate change and environmental impact. ERM planning serves as an additional forum for the integration of ESG considerations into our
business operations.
In addition to a dedicated team of professionals, we have established ESG policies and procedures that inform and guide our ESG approach and drive our
ESG goals forward, including a firm-wide ESG Policy and a Tenant Sustainability Guide. We have aligned our sustainability practices to the Global
Reporting Initiative (“GRI”) standards and to the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (“SASB”) and the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial
Disclosures (“TCFD”) frameworks. We seek to align our ESG strategy and goals with certain United Nations Sustainable Development Goals ("UN
SDGs"), such as goals to combat climate change and to promote the sustainability of our communities.
Below are some highlights of our ESG program. Additional information is available in our Proxy and Corporate Responsibility Report. Such information is
not incorporated by reference into, and is not part of this Report.
Environmental
We are committed to understanding the environmental impact of our operations and promoting environmental sustainability while maintaining high
standards for our company and our stakeholders.
We are building the resiliency of our portfolio to the physical and transition risks of climate change. For standing investments, we analyze climate-related
physical and transition risks and we consider any identified risks as part of our enterprise risk management and budgeting, and capital improvements
processes. Climate-related physical and transition risks are also assessed as part of the due diligence process for acquisitions. Understanding climate-related
risks in our portfolio enables us to implement mitigation measures, including increased insurance coverage and physical enhancements, such as
waterproofing systems, as necessary. In addition, we established a GHG emissions reduction goal for scope 1 and 2 emissions in our portfolio in an effort
to reduce our exposure to, and our contribution to, the negative impacts of climate change.
We prioritize energy efficiency to try to reduce the amount of GHG emissions generated by our properties. Our energy reduction strategy seeks to reduce
energy consumption through a variety of measures, including through LED lighting, smart lighting controls upgrades in our parking areas, and smart
8
thermostat installations in our vacant tenant spaces. For substantially all of our properties with landlord-controlled parking areas, we have installed LED
parking lot lighting and smart lighting controls .
Our energy reduction strategy is complemented by our renewable energy strategy which seeks to incorporate the use of electricity sourced from on-site and
off-site renewable energy projects, such as solar and wind, for the landlord-controlled common areas of our properties. We engage in renewable energy
projects through leasing roof and parking lot space at our properties for solar panel arrays and electric vehicle charging stations. This contributes to the
production of renewable energy for off-site consumption. Lastly, we are evaluating onsite offtake and using renewable energy credits (RECs).
Our water management program focuses on monitoring and reducing common area water consumption, while encouraging best water management
practices by our tenants. We leverage technology to track and analyze our water consumption to identify and decrease excessive use. A majority of our
properties benefit from the use of a landscape design focused on drought-resistant, native, pollinator-friendly plantings that save water. For substantially all
of our properties with landlord-controlled irrigation, we have installed smart irrigation systems with features like rain sensors, to ensure the irrigation is
turned on only when necessary. In addition, we use submeters at certain of our properties to give our retail tenants visibility into their water consumption
and a financial incentive to decrease their consumption.
We include a “green” clause into our standard form of retail leases to align tenant and landlord interests in promoting the sustainability of our properties,
which provides for, among other requirements, cooperation on environmental and social initiatives, and upgrades. We are proud to be named a 2022 Green
Lease Leader by the Institute for Market Transformation/the U.S. Department of Energy’s Better Buildings Alliance and achieved gold status for using
“green” leases to engage our tenants in making our properties more sustainable.
Our sustainable practices extend to our corporate offices where we have adopted energy reduction, waste management and water conservation initiatives.
These initiatives include, for example, installing LED lighting and automatic occupancy sensors for lighting and equipment, recycling programs,
implementing electronic communication systems for tenant billing, and using low-flow faucets. Our corporate headquarters is easily accessible by public
transit due to the close proximity to two train stations, helping to reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions from employee travel. As a result of
sustainability efforts made at our corporate headquarters, we were awarded the Outstanding Achievement in Land Use Award by the Green Business
Partnership in 2019.
Social
DEI are fundamental values of our business. For additional details regarding our DEI Program, as well as employee engagement, employee training and
development, and employee health and wellness initiatives, see Item 1. Human Capital.
Employee volunteerism and philanthropy program are key areas of focus for our company. We engage with local charitable and volunteer organizations to
connect with those in need and provide support. We also encourage our employees to participate in company-sponsored events and to give back through
time, effort, or monetary donations.
We value the importance of community engagement through the facilitation of events at our properties. We engage in partnerships with local communities
and non-profit organizations to host community events and fundraisers throughout our portfolio.
The health and well-being of our tenants and their employees and customers are important to us. Our property operations professionals conduct regular
inspections, repairs and improvements to maintain safe and secure shopping centers and enhance the retail experience.
We strive to respect and promote human rights in accordance with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. We support freedom of
association as proclaimed in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
Governance
We are dedicated to maintaining a high standard for corporate governance predicated on integrity, ethics, diversity, and transparency. All of our Board
members stand for re-election every year. We seek to maintain a diverse Board primarily comprised of independent trustees who represent a mix of varied
experience, backgrounds, tenure, and skills to ensure a broad range of perspectives is represented. In 2021, our NCG Committee formally committed in its
charter to seek to include candidates with a diversity of race, ethnicity, and gender in the pool from which it selects trustee candidates. The Committee
annually reviews the composition of the Board and recommends measures to ensure the Board reflects the appropriate balance of knowledge, experience,
skills, expertise, and diversity of backgrounds to enable the Company to execute its strategic plan and achieve its objectives. As of December 31, 2022, two
of our nine independent trustees are female and one independent trustee represents racial and ethnic diversity.
Additionally, we regularly monitor developments in the area of corporate governance and seek to enhance our corporate governance structure based upon a
review of new developments and recommended best practices, considering investor feedback. We believe that sound corporate governance strengthens the
accountability of our Board and management and promotes the long-term interests of our shareholders. Governance highlights include: opt-out of the Board
self-classification provisions of Subtitle 8; no shareholder rights plan; annual election of trustees; majority voting standard for trustees in uncontested
elections with a resignation policy if an incumbent trustee fails to receive the required vote for re-election; independent and diverse Board with a lead
independent trustee; regular succession planning; risk oversight by the full Board and committees; claw-back, anti-hedging and anti-pledging policies;
annual Say-on-Pay vote; and shareholders’ ability to call a special meeting.
Our Corporate Governance Guidelines and associated policies mandate an elevated level of excellence from our company, the Board and management.
Through transparency, alignment of interests, and removal of potential conflicts of interests, we ensure that our decisions and actions advance the interests
of our shareholders, employees, and other stakeholders.
9
We are diligent about cybersecurity risk management, strategy, and governance. Our Board is regularly briefed by management on cybersecurity risks and
initiatives, and our employees are trained to help safeguard our systems from unauthorized access, including phishing and hacking. We conduct
comprehensive monitoring of our computer networks and we maintain appropriate insurance coverage.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.
Set forth below are the risk factors that we believe are material to our investors. You should carefully consider these risk factors, together with all of the
other information included in this Report, including our consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto, before you decide whether to make an
investment in our securities. The occurrence of any of the following risks could adversely affect our financial condition, cash flows, results of operations,
and ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to make distributions to our shareholders. In such case, the trading price of our Common Shares could
decline, and you may lose all or a significant part of your investment. This section includes or refers to certain forward-looking statements. See “Special
Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”.
The following risk factors are not exhaustive. Other sections of this Report may include additional factors that could adversely affect our financial
condition, cash flows, results of operations, and ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to make distributions to our shareholders. Moreover, we
operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all such
risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may affect our
business. Investors should also refer to our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K for future periods for material updates to these
risk factors.
Risk factors pertaining to our Company generally fall within the following broad areas:
•
•
•
•
•
risks related to our business, properties and tenants;
risks related to litigation, environmental matters and government regulation;
risks related to our management and structure;
risks related to our REIT status; and
general risk factors.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS, OUR PROPERTIES AND OUR TENANTS
There are risks relating to investments in real estate that could adversely affect our financial condition, cash flows, results of operations, and
ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and make distributions to our shareholders.
Real property investments are subject to multiple risks. Real estate values are affected by several factors, including changes in the general economic
climate, local conditions (such as an oversupply of space or a reduction in demand), the quality and philosophy of management, competition from other
available space, and the ability to provide adequate maintenance and insurance and to control variable operating costs. Retail properties, in particular, may
be affected by changing perceptions of retailers or shoppers regarding the convenience and attractiveness of the property and by the overall climate for the
retail industry. Real estate values are also affected by such factors as government regulations, interest rate levels, the availability of financing and potential
liability under, and changes in, environmental, zoning, tax, and other laws. A significant portion of our income is derived from rental income from real
property. Our income and cash flow would be adversely affected if we were unable to rent our vacant space to viable tenants on economically favorable
terms or at all. In the event of default by a tenant, we may experience delays in enforcing, as well as incur substantial costs to enforce, our rights as a
landlord. In addition, certain significant expenditures associated with each equity investment (such as mortgage payments, real estate taxes and
maintenance costs) are generally not reduced even though there may be a reduction in income from the investment.
We rely on revenues derived from tenants, in particular our key tenants, and a decrease in those revenues could adversely affect our ability to
make distributions to our shareholders.
Revenue from our properties depends primarily on the ability of our tenants to pay the full amount of rent and other charges due under their leases on a
timely basis. We derive significant revenues from a concentration of 20 key tenants which occupy space at more than one property and collectively account
for approximately 19.3% of our consolidated revenue. We could be adversely affected in the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of, or a downturn in the
business of, any of our key tenants, or in the event that any such tenant does not renew its leases as they expire or renews such leases at lower rental rates.
See “Item 2. Properties—Major Tenants” for quantified information with respect to the percentage of our minimum rents received from major tenants.
Anchor tenants and co-tenancy are crucial to the success of retail properties and vacated anchor space directly and indirectly affects our rental
revenues.
Certain of our properties are supported by “anchor” tenants. Anchor tenants pay a significant portion of the total rents at a property and contribute to the
success of other tenants by drawing large numbers of customers to a property. Vacated anchor space not only directly reduces rental revenues, but, if not
re-tenanted with a tenant with comparable consumer attraction, could adversely affect the rest of the property primarily through the loss of customer
drawing power. This can also occur through the exercise of the right that most anchors have, to vacate and prevent re-tenanting by paying rent for the
balance of the lease term, also known as “going dark”, such as the case of the departure of a “shadow” anchor tenant that is owned by another landlord. In
addition, in the event that certain anchor tenants cease to occupy a property, such an action results in a significant number of other tenants having the
contractual right to terminate their leases, or pay a reduced rent based on a percentage of the tenant’s sales, at the affected property, which could adversely
affect the future income from such property, also known as “co-tenancy.” Although it may not directly reduce our rental revenues, and there are no
contractual co-tenancy conditions, vacant retail space adjacent to, or even on the same block as our street and urban properties may similarly affect shopper
traffic and re-tenanting activities at our properties. See “Item 2. Properties—Major Tenants”.
11
The bankruptcy of, or a downturn in the business of, any of our major tenants or a significant number of our smaller tenants may adversely affect
our financial condition, cash flows, results of operations and property values.
The bankruptcy of, or a downturn in the business of, any of our major tenants causing them to reject their leases, or to not renew their leases as they expire,
or renew at lower rental rates, may adversely affect our cash flows and property values. Furthermore, the impact of vacated anchor space and the potential
reduction in customer traffic may adversely impact the balance of tenants at a shopping center.
Historically and from time to time, certain of our tenants experienced financial difficulties and filed for bankruptcy protection, typically under Chapter 11
of the United States Bankruptcy Code. Pursuant to bankruptcy law, tenants have the right to reject some or all of their leases. In the event a tenant exercises
this right, the landlord generally has the right to file a claim for lost rent equal to the greater of either one year's rent (including tenant expense
reimbursements) for remaining terms greater than one year, or 15% of the rent remaining under the balance of the lease term, but not to exceed three years
rent. Actual amounts to be received in satisfaction of those claims will be subject to the tenant's final bankruptcy plan and the availability of funds to pay its
creditors. There can be no assurance that our major tenants will not declare bankruptcy, in which case we may be unable to recoup past and future rent in
full, and to re-lease a terminated or rejected space on comparable terms or at all.
We may not be able to renew current leases or the terms of re-letting (including the cost of concessions to tenants) may be less favorable to us than
current lease terms.
Upon the expiration of current leases for space located in our properties, we may not be able to re-let all or a portion of that space, or the terms of re-letting
(including the cost of concessions to tenants) may be less favorable to us than current lease terms. If we are unable to re-let promptly all or a substantial
portion of the space located in our properties or if the rental rates we receive upon re-letting are significantly lower than current rates, our net income and
ability to make expected distributions to our shareholders will be adversely affected due to the resulting reduction in revenues. There can be no assurance
that we will be able to retain tenants in any of our properties upon the expiration of their leases. See “Item 2. Properties—Lease Expirations” for additional
information regarding the scheduled lease expirations in our portfolio.
Our business is significantly influenced by demand for retail space generally, and a decrease in such demand may have a greater adverse effect on
our business than if we owned a more diversified real estate portfolio.
A decrease in the demand for retail space may have a greater adverse effect on our business and financial condition than if we owned a more diversified
real estate portfolio. The market for retail space has been, and could continue to be, adversely affected by weakness in the national, regional, and local
economies, the adverse financial condition of some large retailing companies and bankruptcy incidence, the ongoing consolidation in the retail sector, the
excess amount of retail space in a number of markets and increasing consumer purchases through the Internet. To the extent that any of these conditions
occur, they are likely to negatively affect market rents for retail space and could adversely affect our financial condition, cash flows, results of operations,
the trading price of our Common Shares and our ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay distributions to our shareholders.
E-commerce can have an impact on our business because it may cause a downturn in the business of our current tenants and affect future leases.
The use of the Internet by retail consumers continues to gain in popularity and the migration toward e-commerce is expected to continue. The increase in
Internet sales could result in a downturn in the business of our current tenants in their “brick and mortar” locations, adversely impacting their ability to
satisfy their rent obligations, and could affect the way future tenants lease space.
While we devote considerable effort and resources to analyze and respond to tenant trends, preferences, and consumer spending patterns, we cannot predict
with certainty what future tenants will want, what future retail spaces will look like and how much revenue will be generated at traditional “bricks and
mortar” locations. If we are unable to anticipate and respond promptly to trends in the market because of the illiquid nature of real estate our occupancy
levels and financial results could suffer. See the Risk Factor entitled, “Our ability to change our portfolio is limited because real estate investments are
illiquid” below.
Many of our real estate costs are fixed, even if income from our properties decreases, which would cause a decrease in net income.
Our financial results depend primarily on leasing space at our properties to tenants on terms favorable to us. Costs associated with real estate investment,
such as real estate taxes, insurance, and maintenance costs, generally are not reduced even when a property is not fully occupied, rental rates decrease, or
other circumstances cause a reduction in income from the property. As a result, cash flow from the operations of our properties may be reduced if a tenant
does not pay its rent or we are unable to fully lease our properties on favorable terms. Additionally, properties that we develop or redevelop may not
produce any significant revenue immediately, and the cash flow from existing operations may be insufficient to pay the operating expenses and debt service
associated with such projects until they are fully occupied.
Our ability to change our portfolio is limited because real estate investments are illiquid.
Equity investments in real estate are relatively illiquid and, therefore, our ability to change our portfolio promptly in response to changed conditions is
limited, which could adversely affect our financial condition, cash flows, and ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to make distributions to our
shareholders. In addition, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), contains restrictions on a REIT’s ability to dispose of properties
that are not applicable to other types of real estate companies. Our Board may establish investment criteria or limitations as it deems appropriate, but it
currently does not limit the number of properties in which we may seek to invest or on the concentration of investments in any one geographic region. As
discussed under the heading “Our Board may change our investment policy or objectives without shareholder approval” below, we could change our
investment, disposition and financing policies and objectives without a vote of our shareholders, but such change may be delayed or more difficult to
implement due to the illiquidity of real estate.
12
We could be adversely affected by conditions in the markets where our properties are geographically concentrated.
Our performance depends on the economic conditions in markets where our properties are geographically concentrated. We have significant exposure to
the greater New York and Chicago metropolitan regions, from which we derive 38.2% and 24.6% of the annual base rents within our Core Portfolio,
respectively. In addition, our Funds derive 32.8%, 22.6% and 22.2% of their annual base rents in the New York metropolitan, Southeast, and Northeast
regions of the United States, respectively. Our operating results could be adversely affected if market conditions, such as an oversupply of space or a
reduction in demand for real estate, occur in these areas.
Our development and construction activities could affect our operating results.
We intend to continue the selective development and construction of retail properties. See “Item 1. Business —Investing Activities–Funds–Development
Activities”.
As opportunities arise, we may delay construction until sufficient pre-leasing is reached, and financing is in place. Our development and construction
activities include the risk that:
•
•
•
•
•
•
we may abandon development opportunities after expending resources to determine feasibility;
construction costs of a project may exceed our original estimates;
occupancy rates and rents at a newly completed property may not be sufficient to make the property profitable;
financing for development of a property may not be available to us on favorable terms;
we may not complete construction and lease-up on schedule, resulting in increased debt service expense and construction costs, including
labor and material costs; and
we may not be able to obtain or may experience delays in obtaining necessary zoning and land use approvals as well as building, occupancy
and other required governmental permits and authorizations.
In addition, the entitlement and development of real estate entails extensive approval processes, sometimes involving multiple regulatory jurisdictions. It is
common for a project to require multiple approvals, permits and consents from U.S. federal, state and local governing and regulatory bodies. Compliance
with these and other regulations and standards is time intensive and costly and may require additional long range infrastructure review and approvals which
can add to project cost. In addition, development of properties containing delineated wetlands may require one or more permits from the U.S. federal
government and/or state and local governmental agencies. Any of these issues can materially affect the cost, timing and economic viability of our
development and redevelopment projects.
At times, we may also be required to use unionized construction workers or to pay the prevailing wage in a jurisdiction to unionized workers, which could
increase a project’s costs and the risk of a strike, thereby affecting construction timelines.
Additionally, the time frame required for development, construction and lease-up of these properties means that we may not realize a significant cash return
for several years. If any of the above events occur, the development of properties may hinder our growth and could have an adverse effect on our financial
condition, cash flows and results of operations. In addition, new development activities, regardless of whether or not they are ultimately successful,
typically require substantial time and attention from management.
Developments and acquisitions may fail to perform as expected, which could adversely affect our results of operations.
Our investment strategy includes the development and acquisition of retail properties in supply constrained markets in densely populated areas with high
average household incomes and significant barriers to entry. The acquisition of such properties is highly competitive. Additionally, the development and
acquisition of such properties entails risks that include the following, any of which could adversely affect our financial condition, cash flows, results of
operations, and our ability to meet our debt obligations and make distributions to shareholders:
•
•
•
•
•
•
The property may fail to achieve the returns we have projected, either temporarily or for extended periods;
We may not be able to identify suitable properties to acquire or may be unable to complete the acquisition of the properties we identify;
We may not be able to integrate an acquisition into our existing operations successfully;
Properties we redevelop or acquire may fail to achieve the occupancy or rental rates we project or within the time frames we project which
may result in the properties’ failure to achieve the returns we projected;
Our pre-acquisition evaluation of the physical condition of each new investment may not detect certain defects or identify necessary repairs
until after the property is acquired, which could significantly increase our total acquisition costs or decrease cash flow from the property; and
Our investigation of a property or building prior to our acquisition, and any representations we may receive from the seller of such building
or property, may fail to reveal various liabilities, which could reduce the cash flow from the property or increase our acquisition cost.
13
Historically, Fund I, Mervyns I and Fund III have provided Promote income. There can be no assurance that our joint ventures will continue to operate
profitably and thus provide additional Promote income in the future. These factors could limit the return that we receive from such investments or cause our
cash flows to be lower than our estimates. In addition, a partner or co-venturer may not have access to sufficient capital to satisfy its funding obligations to
the joint venture.
We may not be able to recover our investments in marketable securities or other investments, which may result in significant losses to us.
Our investments in marketable securities are subject to specific risks relating to the particular issuer of the securities, including the financial condition and
business outlook of the issuer, which may result in significant losses to us. Marketable securities are generally unsecured and may also be subordinated to
other obligations of the issuer. As a result, investments in marketable securities are subject to risks of substantial market price volatility, resulting from
changes in prevailing interest rates and the possibility that earnings of the issuer may be insufficient to meet its debt service and distribution obligations.
These risks may adversely affect the value of outstanding marketable securities and the ability of the issuers to make distribution payments.
See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and Note 17 for additional discussion regarding the shares
held by the Company of Albertsons Companies, Inc. (“Albertsons”).
The economic performance and value of our other investments, which we do not control and are in retail operations, are subject to risks associated with
owning and operating retail businesses, as outlined in our other risk factors provided herein. A decline in the value of our other investments may require us
to recognize an other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) against such assets. When the fair value of an investment is determined to be less than its
amortized cost at the balance sheet date, we assess whether the decline is temporary or other-than-temporary. If we intend to sell an impaired asset, or it is
more likely than not that we will be required to sell the impaired asset before any anticipated recovery, then we must recognize an OTTI through charges to
earnings equal to the entire difference between the asset’s amortized cost and its fair value at the balance sheet date. When an OTTI is recognized through
earnings, a new cost basis is established for the asset, and the new cost basis may not be adjusted through earnings for subsequent recoveries in fair value.
Our real estate assets may be subject to impairment charges.
We periodically assess whether there are any indicators that the value of our real estate assets and other investments may be impaired. A property’s value is
considered to be impaired only if the estimated aggregate future undiscounted property cash flows are less than the carrying value of the property. In our
estimate of cash flows, we consider factors such as trends and prospects and the effects of demand and competition on expected future operating income. If
we are evaluating the potential sale of an asset or redevelopment alternatives, the undiscounted future cash flows consider the most likely course of action
as of the balance sheet date based on current plans, intended holding periods and available market information. We are required to make subjective
assessments as to whether there are impairments in the value of our real estate assets and other investments. Impairment charges have an immediate direct
impact on our earnings. There can be no assurance that we will not take additional charges in the future related to the impairment of our assets. Any future
impairment could have a material adverse effect on our operating results in the period in which the charge is taken.
If a third-party vendor fails to provide agreed upon services, we may suffer losses.
We are dependent and rely on third party vendors, including Cloud providers, for redundancy of our network, system data, security, and data integrity. If a
vendor fails to provide services as agreed, suffers outages, business interruptions, financial difficulties, or bankruptcy, we may experience service
interruption, delays, or loss of information. Cloud computing is dependent upon having access to an Internet connection in order to retrieve data. If a
natural disaster, blackout, or other unforeseen event were to occur that disrupted the ability to obtain an Internet connection, we may experience a
slowdown or delay in our operations. We conduct appropriate due diligence on all services providers and restrict access, use and disclosure of personal
information. We engage vendors with formal written agreements clearly defining the roles of the parties and specifying privacy and data security
responsibilities.
Actual or perceived threats associated with epidemics, pandemics or other public health crises, including the COVID-19 Pandemic, have had and
could continue to have a material adverse effect on our and our tenants’ businesses, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, liquidity,
and ability to access the capital markets and satisfy debt service obligations.
Epidemics, pandemics, or other public health crises, including the COVID-19 Pandemic, that impact economic and market conditions, particularly in the
markets where our properties are located, and preventative measures taken to alleviate their impact may have a material adverse effect on our and our
tenants’ businesses, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and ability to access capital markets and satisfy debt service obligations.
Our retail tenants depend on in-person interactions with their customers to generate unit-level profitability, and an epidemic, pandemic or other public
health crisis may decrease customer willingness to frequent, and “shelter-in-place” or “stay-at-home” orders or recommendations may prevent customers
from frequenting our tenants’ businesses, which may result in their inability to maintain profitability and make timely rental payments to us under their
leases. Such restrictions may also affect customer behavior longer term by, among other things, creating a preference for e-commerce, discussed further in
our risk factors above.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR LIQUIDITY AND INDEBTEDNESS
If we decided to employ higher leverage levels, we would be subject to increased debt service requirements and a higher risk of default on our debt
obligations, which could adversely affect our financial conditions, cash flows and ability to make distributions to our shareholders. In addition,
increases or changes in interest rates could cause our borrowing costs to rise and may limit our ability to refinance debt.
Although we have historically used moderate levels of leverage, we have incurred, and expect to continue to incur, indebtedness to support our activities.
As of December 31, 2022, our outstanding indebtedness was $1,805.4 million, of which $364.6 million was variable-rate indebtedness.
14
None of our Declaration of Trust, our Bylaws or any policy statement formally adopted by our Board limits either the total amount of indebtedness or the
specified percentage of indebtedness that we may incur. Accordingly, we could become more highly leveraged, resulting in increased debt service
requirements and a higher risk of default on our debt obligations. This in turn could adversely affect our financial condition, cash flows and ability to make
distributions to our shareholders.
Although approximately 79.8% of our outstanding debt has fixed or effectively fixed interest rates, we also borrow funds at variable interest rates. We are
exposed to risks related to a potential rising interest rate environment for our current or any future variable interest rate debt, which could cause our
borrowing costs to rise and may limit our ability to refinance debt. Interest expense on our variable-rate debt as of December 31, 2022 would increase by
approximately $3.6 million annually for a 100-basis-point increase in interest rates. This exposure would increase if we sought additional variable-rate
financing based on pricing and other commercial and financial terms. We enter into interest rate hedging transactions, including interest rate swap and cap
agreements, with counterparties, generally, the same lenders who made the loan in question. There can be no guarantee that the future financial condition of
these counterparties will enable them to fulfill their obligations under these agreements.
We expect that all LIBOR settings relevant to us will cease to be published or will no longer be representative after June 30, 2023. As a result, any of our
LIBOR-based borrowings and hedges that extend beyond such date will need to be converted to a replacement rate. U.S. regulators identified the Secured
Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as their preferred alternative to USD LIBOR in derivatives and other financial contracts. We have contracts indexed to
LIBOR and are monitoring and evaluating the risks related to potential discontinuation of LIBOR, including transitioning contracts to a new alternative rate
and any resulting value transfer that may occur. When USD LIBOR is discontinued, the interest rates of our LIBOR-indexed debt following such event will
be based on either alternate base rates, such as SOFR, or agreed upon replacement rates. While the discontinuation of USD LIBOR would not affect our
ability to borrow or maintain already outstanding borrowings, it could result in higher interest rates and/or payments under our debt agreements.
Additionally, adjustments to systems and mathematical models to properly process and account for alternative rates will be required, which may strain the
model risk management and information technology functions and result in substantial incremental costs to the Company.
Our inability to raise capital for new Funds or to carry out our growth strategy could adversely affect our financial condition, cash flows and
results of operations.
Our earnings growth strategy is based on the acquisition and development of additional properties, including acquisitions of core properties through our
Operating Partnership and our high return investment programs through our Fund platform. The consummation of any future acquisitions will be subject to
satisfactory completion of our extensive valuation analysis and due diligence review and to the negotiation of definitive documentation. We cannot be sure
that we will be able to implement our strategy because we may have difficulty finding new properties, obtaining necessary entitlements, negotiating with
new or existing tenants or securing acceptable financing.
Acquisitions of additional properties entail the risk that investments will fail to perform in accordance with expectations, including operating and leasing
expectations. In the context of our business plan, “development” generally means an expansion or renovation of an existing property. Development is
subject to numerous risks, including risks of construction delays, cost overruns or uncontrollable events that may increase project costs, new project
commencement risks such as the receipt of zoning, occupancy and other required governmental approvals and permits, and incurring development costs in
connection with projects that are not pursued to completion.
Historically, a component of our growth strategy has been through private-equity type investments made through our RCP Venture, which have included
investments in operating retailers. The inability of such retailers to operate profitably would have an adverse impact on income realized from these
investments. Through our investments in joint ventures, we have also invested in operating businesses that have operational risk in addition to the risks
associated with real estate investments, including human capital issues, adequate supply of product and material, and merchandising issues.
Furthermore, if we were unable to obtain sufficient investor capital commitments in order to initiate future Funds, our current growth strategy would be
adversely impacted. Because the Operating Partnership is the sole general partner or managing member of our Funds and earns promote distributions or
fees for asset management, property management, construction, development, leasing, and legal services, such a situation would also adversely impact the
amount of or ability to earn such promotes or fees.
Our structured financing portfolio is subject to specific risks relating to the structure and terms of the instruments and the underlying collateral.
We invest in notes receivables and preferred equity investments that are collateralized by the underlying real estate, a direct interest or the borrower’s
ownership interest in the entities that own the properties and/or by the borrower’s personal guarantee. The underlying assets are sometimes subordinate in
payment and collateral to more senior loans. The ability of a borrower or entity to make payments on these investments may be subject to the senior lender
and/or the performance of the underlying real estate. In the event of a default by the borrower or entity on its senior loan, our investment will only be
satisfied after the senior loan and we may not be able to recover the full value of the investment. In the event of a bankruptcy of an entity in which we have
a preferred equity interest, or in which the borrower has pledged its interest, the assets of the entity may not be sufficient to satisfy our investment.
RISKS RELATED TO LITIGATION, ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS AND GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION
We are exposed to possible liability relating to environmental matters.
Under various Federal, state and local environmental laws, statutes, ordinances, rules, and regulations, as an owner of real property, we may be liable for
the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances at, on, in or under our property, as well as certain other potential costs relating
to hazardous or toxic substances (including government fines and penalties and damages for injuries to persons and adjacent property). These laws may
impose liability without regard to whether we knew of, or were responsible for, the presence or disposal of those substances. This liability may be imposed
on us in connection with the activities of an operator of, or tenant at, the property. The cost of any required remediation, removal, fines or personal or
property damages and our liability therefore could exceed the value of the property and/or our aggregate assets. In addition, the presence of those
15
substances, or the failure to properly dispose of or remove those substances, may adversely affect our ability to sell or rent that property or to borrow using
that property as collateral, which, in turn, could reduce our revenues and affect our ability to make distributions.
A property can also be adversely affected either through physical contamination or by virtue of an adverse effect upon value attributable to the migration of
hazardous or toxic substances, or other contaminants that have or may have emanated from other properties. Although our tenants are primarily responsible
for any environmental damages and claims related to the leased premises, in the event of the bankruptcy or inability of any of our tenants to satisfy any
obligations with respect to the property leased to that tenant, we may be required to satisfy such obligations. In addition, we may be held directly liable for
any such damages or claims irrespective of the provisions of any lease.
From time to time, in connection with the conduct of our business, and prior to the acquisition of any property from a third party or as required by our
financing sources, we authorize the preparation of Phase I environmental reports and, when necessary, Phase II environmental reports, with respect to our
properties. Based upon these environmental reports and our ongoing review of our properties, we are currently not aware of any environmental condition
with respect to any of our properties that we believe would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us. There can be no assurance,
however, that the environmental reports will reveal all environmental conditions at our properties or that the following will not expose us to material
liability in the future:
•
•
•
•
The discovery of previously unknown environmental conditions;
Changes in law;
Activities of tenants; and
Activities relating to properties in the vicinity of our properties.
Changes in laws increasing the potential liability for environmental conditions existing on properties or increasing the restrictions on discharges or other
conditions may result in significant unanticipated expenditures or may otherwise adversely affect the operations of our tenants, which could adversely
affect our financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
Uninsured losses or a loss in excess of insured limits could adversely affect our financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
We carry comprehensive general liability, all-risk property, extended coverage, loss of rent insurance, and environmental liability on our properties, with
policy specifications and insured limits customarily carried for similar properties. However, with respect to those properties where the leases do not provide
for abatement of rent under any circumstances, we maintain a minimum of twelve months loss of rent insurance. In addition, there are certain types of
losses, such as losses resulting from wars, terrorism or acts of God that generally are not insured because they are either uninsurable or not economically
insurable. Should an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occur, we could lose capital invested in a property, as well as the anticipated future
revenues from a property, while remaining obligated for any mortgage indebtedness or other financial obligations related to the property. Any loss of these
types could adversely affect our financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
We may from time to time be subject to litigation that could negatively impact our financial condition, cash flows, results of operations and the
trading price of our Common Shares.
We may from time to time be a defendant in lawsuits and regulatory proceedings relating to our business. Such litigation and proceedings may result in
defense costs, settlements, fines, or judgments against us, some of which may not be covered by insurance. Due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation
and regulatory proceedings, we cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of any such litigation or proceedings. An unfavorable outcome may result in
our having to pay significant fines, judgments, or settlements, which, if uninsured, or if exceeding insurance coverage, could adversely impact our financial
condition, cash flows, results of operations and the trading price of our Common Shares. Additionally, certain proceedings or the resolution of certain
proceedings may affect the availability or cost of some of our insurance coverage and expose us to increased risks that would be uninsured. See "Item 3. —
Legal Proceedings" and the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements as updated by our subsequent filings with the SEC, for pending litigation, if any.
Compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and fire, safety and other regulations may require us to make unplanned expenditures that
could adversely affect our financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
All of our properties are required to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act, as amended (the “ADA”). The ADA has separate compliance
requirements for “public accommodations” and “commercial facilities,” but generally requires that buildings be made accessible to people with disabilities.
Compliance with the ADA requirements could require removal of access barriers, and non-compliance could result in imposition of fines by the U.S.
government or an award of damages to private litigants, or both. While the tenants to whom we lease properties are obligated by law to comply with
applicable ADA provisions, and are typically obligated to cover costs of compliance, if required changes involve greater expenditures than anticipated, or if
the changes must be made on a more accelerated basis than anticipated, the ability of these tenants to cover costs could be adversely affected. As a result of
the foregoing or if a tenant is not obligated to cover the cost of compliance, we could be required to expend funds to comply with the provisions of the
ADA, which could adversely affect our financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. In addition, we are required to operate our properties in
compliance with fire and safety regulations, building codes and other land use regulations, as they may be adopted by governmental agencies and bodies
and become applicable to the properties. We may be required to make substantial capital expenditures to comply with those requirements, and these
expenditures could also adversely affect our financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
16
RISKS RELATED TO OUR MANAGEMENT AND STRUCTURE
The loss of key management members could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Our success depends on the contribution of key management members. The loss of the services of Kenneth F. Bernstein, President and Chief Executive
Officer, or other key executive-level employees could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Management continues to strengthen our team and we have CEO succession planning in place, but there can be no assurance that such planning will be
capable of implementation or that our efforts will be successful. We have obtained key-man life insurance for Mr. Bernstein. In addition, we have entered
into an employment agreement with Mr. Bernstein and into severance agreements with other senior executives; however, Mr. Bernstein and such
executives may terminate their employment with us at will.
We have pursued and may in the future continue to pursue extensive growth opportunities, including investing in new markets, which may
result in significant demands on our operational, administrative, and financial resources.
We have pursued and may pursue growth opportunities, some of which have been, and in the future may be, in locations in which we have not historically
invested. This expansion places significant demands on our operational, administrative, and financial resources. The continued growth of our real estate
portfolio can be expected to continue to place a significant strain on our resources. Our future performance will depend in part on our ability to successfully
attract and retain qualified management personnel to manage the growth and operations of our business. In addition,
the acquired properties may fail to operate at expected levels due to the numerous factors that may affect the value of real estate. There can be no assurance
that we will have sufficient resources to identify and manage the newly acquired properties.
Our Board may change our investment policy or objectives without shareholder approval.
Our Board may determine to change our investment and financing policies or objectives, our growth strategy and our debt, capitalization, distribution,
acquisition, disposition, and operating policies. Our Board may establish investment criteria or limitations as it deems appropriate, but currently does not
limit the number of properties in which we may seek to invest or the concentration of investments in any one geographic region. Although our Board has
no present intention to revise or amend our strategies and policies, it may do so at any time without a vote by our shareholders. Accordingly, the results of
decisions made by our Board as implemented by management may or may not serve the interests of all of our shareholders and could adversely affect our
financial condition, cash flows, results of operations, and ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to make distributions to our shareholders.
Concentration of ownership by certain investors may allow these investors to exert influence over the business and affairs of our Company.
As of December 31, 2022, four institutional shareholders own 5% or more individually, and 54.4% in the aggregate, of our Common Shares. While this
ownership concentration does not jeopardize our qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes (due to certain “look-through provisions” of
the Code), a significant concentration of ownership may allow an investor or a group of investors to exert a greater influence over our management and
affairs and may have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change in control of us. Additionally, our Board may, in its sole discretion, waive or
modify the 9.8% Common Shares ownership limit in our Declaration of Trust with respect to one or more persons if it is satisfied that ownership in excess
of the limit will not jeopardize our qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. From time to time, we have entered into waivers with
certain institutional investors, subject to certain representations from such investors, including that the Common Shares held by the investors will be held in
the ordinary course of business and not with the purpose or effect of changing or influencing control of us.
Restrictions on a potential change of control could prevent changes that would be beneficial to our shareholders.
Our Board is authorized by our Declaration of Trust to establish and issue one or more series of preferred shares of beneficial interest without shareholder
approval. We have not established any series of preferred shares other than the Series A and Series C Preferred OP Units in the Operating Partnership.
However, the establishment and issuance of a class or series of preferred shares could make a change of control of us that could be in the best interests of
the shareholders more difficult. In addition, we have entered into an employment agreement with our Chief Executive Officer and severance agreements
with certain of our executives, which provide that, upon the occurrence of a change in control of us and either the termination of their employment without
cause (as defined) or their resignation for good reason (as defined), such executive officers would be entitled to certain termination or severance payments
made by us (which may include a lump sum payment equal to defined percentages of annual salary and prior years’ average bonuses, paid in accordance
with the terms and conditions of the respective agreement), which could deter a change of control of us that could be in the best interests of our
shareholders generally.
Certain provisions of Maryland law may limit the ability of a third party to acquire control of our Company.
Under the provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law (the “MGCL”) applicable to REITs, certain business combinations, including certain
mergers, consolidations, share exchanges and asset transfers and certain issuances and reclassifications of equity securities, between a Maryland REIT and
any person who beneficially owns 10% or more of the voting power of the REIT’s outstanding voting shares or an affiliate or an associate, as defined in the
MGCL, of the REIT who, at any time within the two-year period immediately prior to the date in question, was the beneficial owner of 10% or more of the
voting power of the then-outstanding shares of beneficial interest of the REIT (an “interested shareholder”) or an affiliate of the interested shareholder, are
prohibited for five years after the most recent date on which the interested shareholder becomes an interested shareholder. After that five-year period, any
such business combination must be recommended by the board of trustees of the REIT and approved by the affirmative vote of at least (i) 80% of the votes
entitled to be cast by holders of outstanding voting shares of beneficial interest of the REIT and (ii) two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of
voting shares of beneficial interest of the REIT other than shares held by the interested shareholder with whom, or with whose affiliate, the business
combination is to be effected or held by an affiliate or associate of the interested shareholder, unless, among other conditions, the REIT’s common
17
shareholders receive a minimum price, as defined in the MGCL, for their shares and the consideration is received in cash or in the same form as previously
paid by the interested shareholder for its common shares.
These provisions of the MGCL do not apply, however, to business combinations that are approved or exempted by the board of trustees of the REIT before
the interested shareholder becomes an interested shareholder, and a person is not an interested shareholder if the board of trustees approved in advance the
transaction by which the person otherwise would have become an interested shareholder. In approving a transaction, our Board may provide that its
approval is subject to compliance, at or after the time of approval, with any terms and conditions determined by the Board. We have not elected to opt out
of the business combination statute.
The MGCL also provides that holders of “control shares” of a Maryland REIT (defined as voting shares that, when aggregated with all other shares owned
by the acquirer or in respect of which the acquirer is entitled to exercise or direct the exercise of voting power (except solely by virtue of a revocable
proxy), would entitle the acquirer to exercise one of three increasing ranges of voting power in electing trustees) acquired in a “control share acquisition”
(defined as the direct or indirect acquisition of ownership or control of “control shares”) have no voting rights except to the extent approved by the
affirmative vote of holders of at least two-thirds of all the votes entitled to be cast on the matter, excluding shares owned by the acquirer, by officers or by
employees who are also trustees of the REIT. Our Bylaws contain a provision exempting from the control share acquisition statute any and all acquisitions
by any person of our shares of beneficial interest. Our Bylaws can be amended by our Board by majority vote or by our shareholders, pursuant to a binding
proposal properly submitted for consideration at a meeting of shareholders, by the affirmative vote of a majority of all votes entitled to be cast on the
matter, and there can be no assurance that this provision will not be amended or eliminated at any time in the future.
Additionally, Title 3, Subtitle 8 of the MGCL permits our Board, without shareholder approval and regardless of what is currently provided in our
Declaration of Trust or Bylaws, to elect to be subject to certain provisions relating to corporate governance that may have the effect of delaying, deferring
or preventing a transaction or a change of control of our Company that might involve a premium to the market price of our Common Shares or otherwise be
in the best interests of our shareholders. We are subject to some of these provisions (for example, a two-thirds vote requirement for removing a trustee) by
provisions of our Declaration of Trust and Bylaws unrelated to Subtitle 8. However, pursuant to the Articles Supplementary filed with the State Department
of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland on November 9, 2017, which are referenced in Part IV Item 15 hereto, the Board approved a resolution to opt
out of Section 3-803 of Subtitle 8 of Title 3 of the MGCL that allows the Board, without shareholder approval, to elect to classify into three classes with
staggered three-year terms. The Articles Supplementary prohibit the Company, without the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on the matter by
shareholders entitled to vote generally in the election of trustees, from classifying the Board under Subtitle 8.
Becoming subject to, or the potential to become subject to, these provisions of the MGCL could inhibit, delay, or prevent a transaction or a change of
control of our Company that might involve a premium price for our shareholders or otherwise be in our or their best interests. In addition, the provisions of
our Declaration of Trust on removal of trustees and the provisions of our Bylaws regarding advance notice of shareholder nominations of trustees and other
business proposals and restricting shareholder action outside of a shareholders meeting unless such action is taken by unanimous written consent could
have a similar effect.
Our rights and shareholders’ rights to take action against trustees and officers are limited, which could limit recourse in the event of actions not in
the best interests of shareholders.
As permitted by Maryland law, our Declaration of Trust eliminates the liability of our trustees and officers to the Company and its shareholders for money
damages, except for liability resulting from:
•
•
actual receipt of an improper benefit or profit in money, property, or services; or
a final judgment based upon a finding of active and deliberate dishonesty by the trustee or officer that was material to the cause of action
adjudicated.
In addition, our Declaration of Trust authorizes, and our Bylaws obligate, us to indemnify each present or former trustee or officer, to the maximum extent
permitted by Maryland law, who is made a party to any proceeding because of his or her service to our Company in those or certain other capacities. As
part of these indemnification obligations, we may be obligated to fund the defense costs incurred by our trustees and officers.
We operate through a partnership structure, which could have an adverse effect on our ability to manage our assets.
Our primary property-owning vehicle is the Operating Partnership, of which we are the general partner. Our acquisition of properties through the Operating
Partnership in exchange for interests in the Operating Partnership may permit certain tax deferral advantages to limited partners who contribute properties
to the Operating Partnership. Since properties contributed to the Operating Partnership may have unrealized gains attributable to the differences between
the fair market value and adjusted tax basis in such properties prior to contribution, the sale of such properties could cause adverse tax consequences to the
limited partners who contributed such properties. Although we, as the general partner of the Operating Partnership, generally have no obligation to consider
the tax consequences of our actions to any limited partner, we own several properties subject to material contractual restrictions for varying periods of time
designed to minimize the adverse tax consequences to the limited partners who contributed such properties. Such restrictions may result in significantly
reduced flexibility to manage some of our assets.
We currently have an exclusive obligation to seek investments for our Funds, which may prevent us from making acquisitions directly.
Under the terms of the organizational documents of our Funds, our primary goal is to seek investments for the Funds, subject to certain exceptions. We may
only pursue opportunities to acquire retail properties directly through the Operating Partnership if (i) the ownership of the acquisition opportunity by the
Funds would create a material conflict of interest for us; (ii) we require the acquisition opportunity for a “like-kind” exchange; (iii) the consideration
payable for the acquisition opportunity is our Common Shares, OP Units or other securities or (iv) the investment is outside the parameters of our
18
investment goals for the Funds (which, in general, seek more opportunistic level returns). As a result, we may not be able to make attractive acquisitions
directly and instead may only receive a minority interest in such acquisitions through the Funds.
Our joint venture investments carry additional risks not present in our direct investments.
Partnership or joint venture investments (that may include, among others, tenancy-in common and other similar investments) may involve risks not
otherwise present for investments made solely by us, including the possibility that our partner or co-venturer might become bankrupt, and that our partner
or co-venturer may take action contrary to our instructions, requests, policies, or objectives, including with respect to maintaining our qualification as a
REIT. Actions by, or disputes with, joint venture partners might result in subjecting properties owned by the joint venture to additional risks. Other risks of
joint venture investments include impasses on decisions, such as a sale, because neither we nor a joint venture partner may have full control over the joint
venture. Also, there is no limitation under our organizational documents as to the amount of our funds that may be invested in joint ventures.
Additionally, our partners or co-venturers may engage in malfeasance in spite of our efforts to perform a high level of due diligence on them, which may
jeopardize an investment and/or subject us to reputational risk. Such acts may or may not be covered by insurance.
Any disputes that may arise between joint venture partners and us may result in potentially costly litigation or arbitration that would prevent our officers
and/or trustees from focusing their time and effort on our business. In addition, we may in certain circumstances be liable for the actions of our third-party
joint venture partners.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR REIT STATUS
There can be no assurance we have qualified or will remain qualified as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes.
We believe that we have consistently met the requirements for qualification as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes beginning with our taxable year
ended December 31, 1993, and we intend to continue to meet these requirements in the future. However, qualification as a REIT involves the application of
highly technical and complex provisions of the Code, for which there may be only limited judicial or administrative interpretations. No assurance can be
given that we have qualified or will remain qualified as a REIT. The Code provisions and income tax regulations applicable to REITs differ significantly
from those applicable to other entities. The determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control can potentially affect
our ability to continue to qualify as a REIT. In addition, no assurance can be given that future legislation, regulations, administrative interpretations, or
court decisions will not significantly change the requirements for qualification as a REIT or adversely affect the Federal income tax consequences of such
qualification. Under current law, if we fail to qualify as a REIT, we would not be allowed a deduction for dividends paid to shareholders in computing our
net taxable income. In addition, our income would be subject to tax at the regular corporate rates. Also, we could be disqualified from treatment as a REIT
for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification was lost. Cash available for distribution to our shareholders would be significantly
reduced for each year in which we do not qualify as a REIT. In that event, we would not be required to continue to make distributions. Although we
currently intend to continue to qualify as a REIT, it is possible that future economic, market, legal, tax or other considerations may cause us, without the
consent of our shareholders, to revoke the REIT election or to otherwise take action that would result in disqualification.
Legislative or regulatory tax changes could have an adverse effect on us.
There are a number of issues associated with an investment in a REIT that are related to the Federal income tax laws, including, but not limited to, the
consequences of our failing to continue to qualify as a REIT. At any time, the Federal income tax laws governing REITs, or the administrative
interpretations of those laws may be amended or modified. Any new laws or interpretations may take effect retroactively and could adversely affect us or
our shareholders.
We may be required to borrow funds or sell assets to satisfy our REIT distribution requirements.
Our cash flows may be insufficient to fund distributions required to maintain our qualification as a REIT as a result of differences in timing between the
actual receipt of income and the recognition of income for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, or as a result of our inability to currently deduct certain
expenditures that we must currently pay, such as capital expenditures, payments of compensation for which Section 162(m) of the Code denies a deduction,
any business interest expense that is disallowed under Section 163 (j) of the Code (unless we elect to be an “electing
real property trade or business”), and the creation of reserves or required amortization payments. While we have historically satisfied these distribution
requirements by making cash distributions to our stockholders, a REIT is permitted to satisfy these requirements by making distributions of cash or other
property, including, in limited circumstances, its own stock. Assuming we continue to satisfy these distribution requirements with cash, we may need to
borrow funds on a short term basis or sell assets, to meet the REIT distribution requirements and avoid the payment of income and excise taxes even if the
then prevailing market conditions are not favorable for these borrowings or sales. These cash needs could result from differences in timing between the
actual receipt of cash and inclusion of income for U.S. federal income tax purposes, or the effect of non-deductible capital expenditures, the creation of
cash reserves or required debt or amortization payments. These sources, however, may not be available on favorable terms or at all. Our access to third-
party sources of capital depends on a number of factors, including the market's perception of our growth potential, our current debt levels, the market price
of our common stock, and our current and potential future earnings. Such actions could adversely affect our cash flow and results of operations.
Dividends payable by REITs generally do not qualify for reduced tax rates.
Certain qualified dividends paid by corporations to individuals, trusts and estates that are U.S. shareholders are taxed at capital gain rates, which are lower
than ordinary income rates. Dividends of current and accumulated earnings and profits payable by REITs, however, are taxed at ordinary income rates as
opposed to the capital gain rates. Pursuant to section 199A of the Code, from 2018 through 2025, certain REIT shareholders will be permitted to deduct
20% of ordinary REIT dividends received. Dividends payable by REITs in excess of these earnings and profits generally are treated as a non-taxable
reduction of the shareholders’ basis in the shares to the extent thereof and thereafter as taxable gain. The more favorable rates applicable to regular
19
corporate dividends could cause investors who are individuals, trusts, and estates to perceive investments in REITs, including us, to be relatively less
attractive than investments in the stock of non-REIT corporations that pay dividends, which may negatively impact the trading prices of our securities.
Complying with REIT requirements may cause us to forego otherwise attractive opportunities or liquidate otherwise attractive investments.
To qualify as a REIT, we must continually satisfy tests concerning, among other things, the sources of our income, the nature and diversification of our
assets, the amounts we distribute to our shareholders and the ownership of our Common Shares. In order to meet these tests, we may be required to forego
investments we might otherwise make and refrain from engaging in certain activities. Thus, compliance with the REIT requirements may hinder our
performance.
In addition, if we fail to comply with certain asset ownership tests at the end of any calendar quarter, we must correct the failure within 30 days after the
end of the calendar quarter or qualify for certain statutory relief provisions to avoid losing our REIT qualification. As a result, we may be required to
liquidate otherwise attractive investments.
We have limits on ownership of our shares of beneficial interest.
For us to qualify as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes, among other requirements, not more than 50% of the value of our shares of beneficial interest
may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the Code to include certain entities) at any time during the last half of each
taxable year, and such shares of beneficial interest must be beneficially owned by 100 or more persons during at least 335 days of a taxable year of 12
months or during a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year (in each case, other than the first such year). Our Declaration of Trust includes certain
restrictions regarding transfers of our shares of beneficial interest and ownership limits that are intended to assist us in satisfying these limitations, among
other purposes. These restrictions and limits may not be adequate in all cases, however, to prevent the transfer of our shares of beneficial interest in
violation of the ownership limitations. The ownership limits contained in our Declaration of Trust may have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing
a change of control of us.
Actual or constructive ownership of our shares of beneficial interest in excess of the share ownership limits contained in our Declaration of Trust would
cause the violative transfer or ownership to be null and void from the beginning and subject to purchase by us at a price equal to the fair market value of
such shares (determined in accordance with the rules set forth in our Declaration of Trust). As a result, if a violative transfer were made, the recipient of the
shares would not acquire any economic or voting rights attributable to the transferred shares. Additionally, the constructive ownership rules for these limits
are complex and groups of related individuals or entities may be deemed a single owner and consequently in violation of the share ownership limits.
Distribution requirements imposed by law limit our operating flexibility.
To maintain our status as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes, we are generally required to distribute to our shareholders at least 90% of our taxable
income for each calendar year. Our taxable income is determined without regard to any deduction for dividends paid and by excluding net capital gains. To
the extent that we satisfy the distribution requirement, but distribute less than 100% of our taxable income, we will be subject to Federal corporate income
tax on our undistributed income. In addition, we will incur a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any, by
which our distributions in any year are less than the sum of (i) 85% of our ordinary income for that year; (ii) 95% of our capital gain net income for that
year; and (iii) 100% of our undistributed taxable income from prior years. We intend to continue to make distributions to our shareholders to comply with
the distribution requirements of the Code and to minimize exposure to Federal income and excise taxes. Differences in timing between the receipt of
income and the payment of expenses in determining our income as well as required debt amortization payments and the capitalization of certain expenses
could require us to borrow funds on a short-term basis to meet the distribution requirements that are necessary to achieve the tax benefits associated with
qualifying as a REIT. The distribution requirements also severely limit our ability to retain earnings to acquire and improve properties or retire outstanding
debt.
GENERAL RISK FACTORS
The economic environment may cause us to lose tenants and may impair our ability to borrow money to purchase properties, refinance existing
debt or finance our current development projects.
Our operations and performance depend on general economic conditions, including consumer health. The U.S. economy has historically experienced
financial downturns from time to time, including a decline in consumer spending, credit tightening and high unemployment.
While we currently believe we have adequate sources of liquidity, there can be no assurance that, in the event of a financial downturn, we will be able to
obtain secured or unsecured loan facilities to meet our needs, including to purchase additional properties, to complete current development projects, or to
successfully refinance our properties as loans become due. To the extent that the availability of credit is limited, it would also adversely impact our notes
receivable, as counterparties may not be able to obtain the financing required to repay the loans upon maturity.
Certain sectors of the U. S. economy are still experiencing weakness. Over the past several years, this structural weakness has resulted in periods of high
unemployment, rising inflation, the bankruptcy or weakened financial condition of a number of retailers, decreased consumer spending, increased home
foreclosures, low consumer confidence, and reduced demand and rental rates for certain retail space. There can be no assurance that an economic recovery
will occur or continue. General economic factors that are beyond our control, including, but not limited to, economic recessions, decreases in consumer
confidence, reductions in consumer credit availability, increasing consumer debt levels, rising energy costs, higher tax rates, continued business layoffs,
downsizing and industry slowdowns, and/or rising inflation, could have a negative impact on the business of our retail tenants. In turn, this could have a
material adverse effect on our business because current or prospective tenants may, among other things, (i) have difficulty paying their rent obligations as
they struggle to sell goods and services to consumers, (ii) be unwilling to enter into or renew leases with us on favorable terms or at all, (iii) seek to
terminate their existing leases with us or request rental concessions on such leases, or (iv) be forced to curtail operations or declare bankruptcy.
20
Political and economic uncertainty could have an adverse effect on our business.
In the past year, microeconomic and macroeconomic conditions, including the fallout from the COVID-19 Pandemic, the war in Ukraine, supply-chain
disruptions, and the recessionary outlook of the current financial markets, has increased volatility in the market and has caused a surge in already increasing
inflation and interest rates. We cannot predict how current political and economic uncertainty will affect our critical tenants, joint venture partners, lenders,
financial institutions, and general economic conditions, including the health and confidence of the consumer and the volatility of the stock market.
Political and economic uncertainty poses a risk to us in that it may cause consumers to postpone discretionary spending in response to tighter credit, reduced
consumer confidence and other macroeconomic factors affecting consumer spending behavior, resulting in a downturn in the business of our tenants. In the event
current political and economic uncertainty results in financial turmoil affecting the banking system and financial markets generally or significant financial service
institution failures, there could be a new or incremental tightening in the credit markets, low liquidity, and extreme volatility in fixed income, credit, currency, and
equity markets. Each of these factors could adversely affect our financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
Inflation may adversely affect our financial condition, cash flows and results of operations.
Increased inflation could have a more pronounced negative impact on our mortgage and debt interest, any of our remaining development and
redevelopment costs, and general and administrative expenses, as these costs could increase at a rate higher than our rents. Also, inflation may adversely
affect tenant leases with stated rent increases or limits on such tenant’s obligation to pay its share of operating expenses, which could be lower than the
increase in inflation at any given time. It may also limit our ability to recover all of our operating expenses. Inflation could also have an adverse effect on
consumer spending, which could impact our tenants’ sales and, in turn, our average rents, and in some cases, our percentage rents, where applicable. In
addition, renewals of leases or future leases may not be negotiated on current terms, in which event we may recover a smaller percentage of our operating
expenses.
Competition may adversely affect our ability to purchase properties and to attract and retain tenants.
There are numerous commercial developers, real estate companies, financial institutions, and other investors with greater financial resources than we have
that compete with us in seeking properties for acquisition and tenants who will lease space in our properties. Our competitors include other REITs,
financial institutions, private funds, insurance companies, pension funds, private companies, family offices, sovereign wealth funds and individuals. This
competition may result in a higher cost for properties than we wish to pay. In addition, retailers at our properties (both in our Core Portfolio and in the
portfolios of the Funds) face increasing competition from outlet malls, discount shopping clubs, e-commerce, direct mail, and telemarketing, which could
(i) reduce rents payable to us and (ii) reduce our ability to attract and retain tenants at our properties leading to increased vacancy rates at our properties.
Changes in market conditions could have an adverse effect on our share price and our ability to access the public equity markets.
The market price of our Common Shares may fluctuate significantly in response to many factors, including:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
actual or anticipated variations in our operating results, funds from operations, cash flows or liquidity;
changes in our earnings estimates or those of analysts;
changes in our dividend policy;
impairment charges affecting the carrying value of one or more of our properties or other assets;
publication of research reports about us, the retail industry, or the real estate industry generally;
increases in market interest rates that lead purchasers of our securities to seek higher dividend or interest rate yields;
changes in market valuations of similar companies;
adverse market reaction to the amount of our outstanding debt at any time, the amount of our maturing debt in the near and medium term and
our ability to refinance such debt and the terms thereof or our plans to incur additional debt in the future;
additions or departures of key management personnel;
actions by institutional security holders;
proposed or adopted regulatory or legislative changes or developments;
speculation in the press or investment community;
the occurrence of any of the other risk factors included in, or incorporated by reference in, this Report; and
general market and economic conditions.
Many of the factors listed above are beyond our control. Those factors may cause the market price of our Common Shares to decline significantly,
regardless of our financial performance, condition, and prospects. We cannot provide any assurance that the market price of our Common Shares will not
21
fall in the future, and it may be difficult for holders to sell such securities at prices they find attractive, or at all. A decline in our share price, as a result of
this or other market factors, could unfavorably impact our ability to raise additional equity in the public markets.
Outages, computer viruses and similar events could disrupt our operations.
We rely on information technology networks and systems, some of which are owned and operated by third parties, to process, transmit and store electronic
information. Any of these systems may be susceptible to outages due to fire, floods, power loss, telecommunications failures, terrorist or cyber-attacks and
similar events. Despite the implementation of network security measures, our systems and those of third parties on which we rely may also be vulnerable to
computer viruses and similar disruptions. If we or the third parties on whom we rely are unable to prevent such outages and breaches, our operations could
be disrupted.
Increased Information Technology (“IT”) security threats and more sophisticated computer crime could pose a risk to our systems, networks,
and services.
Cyber incidents can result from deliberate attacks or unintentional events. There have been an increased number of significant cyber-attacks targeted at the
retail, insurance, financial and banking industries that include, but are not limited to, gaining unauthorized access to digital systems for purposes of
misappropriating assets or sensitive information, corrupting data or causing operational disruption. Cyber-attacks may also be carried out in a manner that
does not require gaining unauthorized access, such as by causing denial-of-service attacks on websites. Cyber-attacks by third parties or insiders utilize
techniques that range from highly sophisticated efforts to electronically circumvent network security or overwhelm a website to more traditional
intelligence gathering, and social engineering aimed at obtaining information necessary to gain access.
Increased global IT security threats are more sophisticated and targeted computer crimes pose a risk to the security of our systems and networks and the
confidentiality, availability and integrity of our data. The open nature of interconnected technologies may allow for a network or Web outage or a privacy
breach that reveals sensitive data or transmission of harmful/malicious code to business partners and clients. Because the techniques used to obtain
unauthorized access, disable, or degrade service, or sabotage systems change frequently and may be difficult to detect for long periods of time, we may be
unable to anticipate these techniques or implement adequate preventive measures.
Cyber-attacks may result in substantial financial and reputational cost, including but are not limited to:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Compromising of confidential information;
Manipulation and destruction of data;
Loss of trade secrets;
System downtimes and operational disruptions;
Remediation costs that may include liability for stolen assets or information and repairing system damage, as well as incentives offered to
customers, tenants, or other business partners in an effort to maintain business relationships;
Loss of revenues resulting from unauthorized use of proprietary information;
Cost to deploy additional protection strategies, training employees and engaging third party experts and consultants;
Reputational damage adversely affecting investor and tenant confidence; and
Costly litigation.
The control environment for cyber security is an ever-changing risk landscape across the entire attack surface which includes risks from on-premises, cloud
infrastructure, software as a service and mobile applications. While we attempt to mitigate these risks by employing a number of measures, including a
dedicated IT team, employee training and background checks, maintenance of backup systems, utilization of third-party service providers to provide
redundancy over multiple locations, and comprehensive monitoring of our networks and systems along with purchasing cyber security insurance coverage,
our systems, networks, and services remain potentially vulnerable to advanced threats.
Use of social media may adversely impact our reputation and business.
There has been a significant increase in the use of social media platforms, including weblogs, social media websites and other forms of Internet-based
communications, which allow individuals access to a broad audience, including our significant business constituents. The availability of information
through these platforms is virtually immediate as is its impact and may be posted at any time without affording us an opportunity to redress or correct it
timely. This information may be adverse to our interests, may be inaccurate and may harm our reputation, brand image,
goodwill, performance, prospects, or business. Furthermore, these platforms increase the risk of unauthorized disclosure of material non-public Company
information.
Climate change, natural disasters or health crises could adversely affect our properties and business.
Some of our current or future properties could be subject to natural disasters and may be impacted by climate change. To the extent climate change causes
adverse changes in weather patterns, rising sea levels or extreme temperatures, our properties in certain markets may be adversely affected. Specifically,
22
properties located in coastal regions, including Florida, Virginia, Georgia, New York, and Massachusetts could be affected by any future increases in sea
levels or in the frequency or severity of hurricanes and storms, whether caused by climate change or other factors. Additionally, we own properties in
California, which in recent years has experienced intense drought and wildfires and has had earthquake activity.
Climate change could have a variety of direct or indirect adverse effects on our properties and business, including:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Property damage to our retail properties;
Indirect financial and operational impacts from disruptions to the operations of major tenants located in our retail properties from severe
weather, such as hurricanes, floods, wildfires or other natural disasters;
Increased insurance premiums and deductibles, or a decrease in or unavailability of coverage, for properties in areas subject to severe
weather, such as hurricanes, floods, wildfires or other natural disasters;
Increased insurance claims and liabilities;
Increases in energy costs impacting operational returns;
Changes in the availability or quality of water or other natural resources on which the tenant’s business depends;
Decreased consumer demand for products or services resulting from physical changes associated with climate change (e.g., warmer
temperatures or decreasing shoreline could reduce demand for residential and commercial properties previously viewed as desirable);
Incorrect long-term valuation of an equity investment due to changing conditions not previously anticipated at the time of the investment; and
Economic disruptions arising from the above.
Moreover, compliance with new laws or regulations related to climate change, including compliance with “green” building codes, may require us to make
improvements to our existing properties or pay additional taxes and fees assessed on us or our properties. Although we strive to identify, analyze, and
respond to the risk and opportunities that climate change presents, at this time there can be no assurance that climate change will not have an adverse effect
on us.
Public health crises, pandemics, and epidemics, such as those caused by new strains of viruses such as H5N1 (avian flu), severe acute respiratory syndrome
(SARS) and, most recently, the COVID-19 Pandemic, may increase as international travel continues to rise and could adversely impact our business by
interrupting our tenants’ business, supply chains and transactional activities, disrupting travel, and negatively impacting local, national, or global
economies.
Future terrorist attacks or civil unrest could harm the demand for, and the value of, our properties.
Over the past several years, a number of highly publicized terrorist acts and shootings have occurred at domestic and international retail properties. Future
terrorist attacks, civil unrest and other acts of terrorism or war could harm the demand for, and the value of, our properties. Terrorist attacks could directly
impact the value of our properties through damage, destruction, loss or increased security costs, and the availability of insurance for such acts may be
limited or may be subject to substantial cost increases. To the extent that our tenants are impacted by future attacks, their ability to continue to honor
obligations under their existing leases could be adversely affected. A decrease in retail demand could make it difficult for us to renew or re-lease our
properties at lease rates equal to or above historical rates. These acts might erode business and consumer confidence and spending and might result in
increased volatility in national and international financial markets and economies. Any
one of these events might decrease demand for real estate, decrease or delay the occupancy of our properties, and limit our access to capital or increase our
cost of raising capital.
Increased scrutiny by and changing expectations from investors, tenants, employees, and other stakeholders regarding our ESG practices and
reporting could cause us to incur additional costs and adversely impact our reputation, tenant and employee acquisition and retention, and access
to capital.
Companies across all industries are facing increasing scrutiny related to their ESG practices and disclosure. Investors, tenants, employees, and other
stakeholders have begun to focus increasingly on ESG practices and to place heightened importance on the environmental and social cost of their
investments, business decisions and consumer choices. For example, an increasing number of investment funds focus on positive ESG practices and
sustainability scores when making an investment decision. Additionally, certain institutional investors have demonstrated increased activism with respect to
their existing investments, including by urging companies to take certain actions in areas of perceived ESG significance.
Investors, particularly institutional investors, use or may use third-party benchmarks and scores to assess our ESG practices against our peers and if we are
perceived as lagging, such investors may decide to not invest in our Common Shares or to divest from their current investment, and we may face
reputational challenges. Alternatively, such investors may decide to actively engage with us to improve ESG disclosure or performance, and may also make
voting decisions on this basis. Given increased investor focus and demand, public disclosure regarding ESG practices is becoming more broadly expected.
Any disclosure we make may include our policies and practices on a variety of ESG matters, including corporate governance, environmental compliance,
human capital management, and workforce inclusion and diversity. It is possible that stakeholders may not be satisfied with our ESG practices, reporting
23
and goals, or with our speed of adoption. If our ESG practices and disclosures do not meet investor, tenant, employee or other stakeholder expectations,
which continue to evolve, our reputation and tenant and employee retention, and access to capital may be negatively impacted.
In 2022, the SEC proposed extensive rules aimed at enhancing and standardizing climate-related disclosures in an effort to foster greater consistency,
comparability and reliability of climate-related information among public issuers. The proposal, if adopted, would require public issuers to include
prescribed climate-related information in their registration statements and annual reports, including information regarding greenhouse gas emissions and
climate-related risks and opportunities and related financial impacts, governance and strategy. Additionally, we may become subject to new compliance
requirements and/or new costs or taxes associated with natural resource or energy usage and related emissions (such as a “carbon tax”), which could
increase our operating costs.
We could incur additional costs relating to implementing, monitoring and reporting various ESG practices and initiatives, as well as complying with
applicable law, which could place a strain on our personnel, systems and resources. Our failure, or perceived failure, to meet the goals and objectives we set
in any ESG disclosure within the timelines announced or at all, or the expectations of our various stakeholders could negatively impact our reputation,
tenant and employee retention, and access to capital.
We previously identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting which resulted in the restatement of certain of our
previously issued consolidated financial statements, which resulted in unanticipated costs and may affect investors' confidence and raise
reputational issues. If we fail to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial
results.
Effective internal controls over financial reporting are necessary for us to provide reliable and accurate financial reports. We previously identified and
reported a deficiency in internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021 and determined that the Company did not maintain effective
internal control over financial reporting because of an error in accounting treatment at the time of formation related to the improper consolidation of two
investments that are less-than-wholly-owned through the Company’s opportunity funds. As a consequence, these two Fund Investments, which were
formed in 2012 and 2013, were adjusted from consolidated investments to investments in unconsolidated affiliates within the restated financial statements,
as of and for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, and as of and for each of the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, June 30, 2021
and 2020, September 30, 2021 and 2020, and December 31, 2020 (collectively, the "Restatement"). The Restatement also included corrections for certain
immaterial unrecorded adjustments in the Company's previously issued financial statements. See Item 9A, “Controls and Procedures”, in this Annual
Report on Form 10-K for additional information regarding the previously identified material weakness and our actions to date to remediate the material
weakness.
The Restatement may affect investor confidence in the accuracy of our financial disclosure and may raise reputational risks for our business, both of which
could harm our business and financial results. Additionally, if material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting are discovered or occur
in the future, our financial statements may contain material misstatements, and we could be required to restate such financial results, which could
materially and adversely affect our business and financial results, restrict our ability to access the capital markets, require us to expend significant resources
to correct the material weaknesses, subject us to fines, penalties or judgements, harm our reputation or otherwise cause a decline in investor confidence.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS.
None.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.
Retail Properties
The discussion and tables in this Item 2. include wholly-owned and partially-owned properties held through our Core Portfolio and our Funds. We define
our Core Portfolio as those properties either 100% owned by, or partially owned through joint venture interests by the Operating Partnership or subsidiaries
thereof, not including those properties owned through our Funds.
As of December 31, 2022, our Core Portfolio consisted of 143 operating properties totaling approximately 5.6 million square feet (or 5.2 million at our pro
rata share) of gross leasable area (“GLA”) excluding five properties under redevelopment and three properties in development. The Core Portfolio
properties are located in 13 states and the District of Columbia and primarily consist of street retail and dense suburban shopping centers. These properties
are diverse in size, ranging from approximately 1,000 to 800,000 square feet and as of December 31, 2022, were 92.1% occupied and 94.4% leased (or
92.7% occupied and 94.9% leased at our pro rata share), excluding properties under development or redevelopment.
As of December 31, 2022, we owned and operated 49 properties totaling approximately 8.0 million square feet in total (or 1.7 million square feet at our pro
rata share) of GLA in our Funds, excluding two properties under development. In addition to shopping centers, the Funds have invested in mixed-use
properties, which generally include retail activities. The Fund properties are located in 19 states and the District of Columbia and, as of December 31, 2022,
were 88.9% occupied and 92.5% leased (or 86.1% occupied and 91.4% leased at our pro rata share), excluding the properties under development.
Within our Core Portfolio and Funds, we had more than 1,100 retail leases as of December 31, 2022. A significant portion of our rental revenues are from
national retailers and consist of rents received under long-term leases. These leases generally provide for the monthly payment of fixed minimum rent and
the tenants' pro-rata share of the real estate taxes, insurance, utilities, and common area maintenance of the shopping centers. An insignificant portion of
our leases also provide for the payment of rent based on a percentage of a tenant's gross sales in excess of a stipulated annual amount, either in addition to,
or in place of, minimum rents, which we refer to as percentage rents. Minimum rents and expense reimbursements accounted for substantially all of our
total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Six of our Core Portfolio properties and two of our Fund properties are subject to long-term ground leases in which a third party owns and has leased the
underlying land to us. We pay rent for the use of the land and are responsible for all costs and expenses associated with the building and improvements at
all of these locations.
No individual property or tenant contributed in excess of 10% of our total revenues for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 or 2020. See Note 7 for
information on the mortgage debt pertaining to our properties.

No single market, except as discussed below under Geographic Concentrations, represents a material amount of rent exposure to the Company. Given the diversity of our markets,
properties and characteristics of the individual spaces, the Company cannot make any general representations relating to the expiring rents and the rates at which these spaces may be
re-leased.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
From time to time, we are a party to various legal proceedings, claims or regulatory inquiries and investigations arising out of, or incident to, our ordinary
course of business. While we are unable to predict with certainty the outcome of any particular matter, management does not currently expect, when any
such matters are resolved, that our resulting exposure to loss contingencies, if any, will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial

Share Price Performance
The following graph compares the cumulative total shareholder return for our Common Shares for the period commencing December 31, 2017, through
December 31, 2022, with the cumulative total return on the Russell 2000 Index (“Russell 2000”), the NAREIT All Equity REITs Index (the “All Equity”)
and the NAREIT Equity Shopping Centers Index (the “Equity Shopping Centers”) (previously SNL REIT Shopping Center Index which was discontinued)
over the same period. Total return values for the Russell 2000, the All Equity, the Equity Shopping Centers and the Common Shares were calculated based
upon cumulative total return assuming the investment of $100.00 in each of the Russell 2000, the All Equity, the Equity Shopping Centers and our
Common Shares on December 31, 2017, and assuming reinvestment of dividends. The shareholder return as set forth in the table below is not necessarily
indicative of future performance. The information in this section is not “soliciting material,” is not deemed “filed” with the SEC and is not to be

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
OVERVIEW
As of December 31, 2022, there were 202 properties, which we own or have an ownership interest in, within our Core Portfolio and Funds. Our Core
Portfolio consists of those properties either 100% owned, or partially owned through joint venture interests by the Operating Partnership, or subsidiaries
thereof, not including those properties owned through our Funds. These properties primarily consist of street and urban retail, and suburban shopping
centers. See Item 2. Properties for a summary of our wholly-owned and partially-owned retail properties and their physical occupancies at December 31,
2022.
The majority of our operating income is derived from rental revenues from operating properties, including expense recoveries from tenants, offset by
operating and overhead expenses.
Our primary business objective is to acquire and manage commercial retail properties that will provide cash for distributions to shareholders while also
creating the potential for capital appreciation to enhance investor returns. We focus on the following fundamentals to achieve this objective:
•
•
•
•
Own and operate a Core Portfolio of high-quality retail properties located primarily in high-barrier-to-entry, densely populated metropolitan
areas and create value through accretive development and re-tenanting activities coupled with the acquisition of high-quality assets that have
the long-term potential to outperform the asset class as part of our Core asset recycling and acquisition initiative.
Generate additional external growth through an opportunistic yet disciplined acquisition program within our Funds. We target transactions
with high inherent opportunity for the creation of additional value through:
ovalue-add investments in street retail properties, located in established and “next generation” submarkets, with re-tenanting or repositioning
opportunities,
oopportunistic acquisitions of well-located real-estate anchored by distressed retailers, and
oother opportunistic acquisitions which may include high-yield acquisitions and purchases of distressed debt.
Some of these investments historically have also included, and may in the future include, joint ventures with private equity investors for the
purpose of making investments in operating retailers with significant embedded value in their real estate assets.
Maintain a strong and flexible balance sheet through conservative financial practices while ensuring access to sufficient capital to fund future
growth.
SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENTS DURING THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2022
Acquisitions
During the year ended December 31, 2022, we made four new consolidated investments in our Core Portfolio and Fund V acquired three unconsolidated

on August 1, 2022, we made an additional $5.8 million investment in Fund II and increased our ownership by 21.67% to 61.67% (Note 1). As the Company
retained its controlling interest in Fund II and Mervyns II, we accounted for these additional investments as equity transactions.

subsequently consolidated the property (Note 2, Note 4).
39
On January 27, 2023, Fund V acquired a 90% interest in an unconsolidated venture. The venture purchased a shopping center referred to as Mohawk

We recognized aggregate gains of $57.1 million on the sales of the above properties, excluding the gain recognized on the sale of our unconsolidated
interest in Self Storage Management and Promenade at Manassas, during the year ended December 31, 2022, of which our share is $23.3 million.
In addition, during the third quarter of 2022, we entered into an agreement to sell a property for approximately $18.0 million. As this disposition is deemed
probable within one year, this property has been classified as "held-for-sale" on the Company's consolidated balance sheet (Note 17).

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we effected the following financing activities (Note 7):
•
•

40
The Operating Partnership has a $700.0 million senior unsecured credit facility, as amended (the “Credit Facility”), with Bank of America, N.A. as
administrative agent, comprised of a $300.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) which bears interest at a floating rate based
on SOFR with margins based on leverage or credit rating, and a $400.0 million senior unsecured term loan (the “Term Loan”) which bears interest at a
floating rate based on SOFR with margins based on leverage or credit rating. Currently, the Revolver bears interest at SOFR + 1.50% and the Term Loan
bears interest at SOFR + 1.65%. The Revolver matures on June 29, 2025, subject to two six-month extension options, and the Term Loan matures on June
29, 2026. The Credit Facility provides for an accordion feature, which allows for one or more increases in the revolving credit facility or term loan facility,
for a maximum aggregate principal amount not to exceed $900.0 million. The Credit Facility is guaranteed by the Company and certain subsidiaries of the
Company.
On April 6, 2022, the Operating Partnership entered into the $175.0 million term loan facility, with Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent, which
bears interest at a floating rate based on SOFR with margins based on leverage or credit rating, and which matures on April 6, 2027. The proceeds of the
$175.0 million term loan were used to pay down the Revolver. Currently the $175.0 million term loan bears interest at SOFR + 1.60%. The $175.0 million
term loan is guaranteed by the Company and certain subsidiaries of the Company.
On July 29, 2022, the Operating Partnership entered into the $75.0 million term loan, with TD Bank, N.A. as administrative agent, which bears interest at a
floating rate based on SOFR with margins based on leverage or credit rating and which matures on July 29, 2029. Currently the $75.0 million term loan
bears interest at SOFR + 2.05%. The proceeds of the $75.0 million term loan were used to pay down the Revolver. The $75.0 million term loan is
guaranteed by the Company and certain subsidiaries of the Company.
Structured Financing Investments
During the year ended December 31, 2022, we:
•
•
•
•
•
received full payment on a $16.0 million and a $13.5 million first mortgage loan, respectively (Note 3);
extended one note receivable maturity date for one year (Note 3);
originated a loan to other Fund II investors ("City Point Loan") of $65.9 million (Note 10). Fund V originated a temporary bridge loan of
$52.0 million to an unconsolidated venture in the first quarter, which was repaid during the second quarter, and originated a temporary bridge
loan of $31.7 million to an unconsolidated venture in the third quarter (Note 4);
funded $7.5 million of a $12.8 million construction loan commitment to an unconsolidated venture (Note 4); and
through an affiliate of Fund III foreclosed upon its $5.3 million note receivable, which had previously been in default. We have one Core
Portfolio note receivable that remains in default (Note 3);
ATM Program Activity
We sold 5,525,419 Common Shares under our ATM Program during the year ended December 31, 2022 for gross proceeds of $123.9 million, or $119.5
million net of issuance costs, at a weighted-average gross price per share of $22.43 (Note 10).
Albertsons
On January 20, 2023, Mervyns II received cash dividends totaling $28.2 million related to the special dividend received from its investment in Albertsons
Companies Inc. ("Albertsons") (Note 4). The special dividend was originally scheduled to be paid on November 7, 2022 and was delayed by a temporary
restraining order which enjoined Albertsons from paying the special dividend. The Company's proportionate share of the special dividend was $11.3
million. The special dividend will be recognized in the first quarter of 2023 given the uncertainty that existed as of December 31, 2022, which was resolved
following the lifting of the temporary restraining order by the Supreme Court of the State of Washington on January 17, 2023 (Note 17).
Fund II and City Point Refinancing
During the second and third quarter, we further increased our effective ownership in Fund II from 28.33% to 61.67% (Note 1). The purchase price of the
combined 33.34% interest was $120.8 million, inclusive of $112.0 million of assumed obligations.
Additionally, in August 2022, through Fund II, we refinanced and de-levered City Point. The outstanding mortgage debt of $257.9 million and term loan of
$40.0 million were refinanced with a single mortgage loan of $198.0 million, with initial proceeds of $132.2 million (Note 7). We provided a loan, through
a separate lending subsidiary, to other Fund II investors in City Point, through a separate borrower subsidiary, to fund the investors' pro rata contribution
necessary to complete the refinancing of the City Point debt, of which $65.9 million was funded at closing ("City Point Loan") (Note 3). In addition, the
remaining partners have certain redemption rights that could enable us to further increase our ownership in Fund II (Note 10).

Core Portfolio
The results of operations for our Core Portfolio segment are depicted in the table above under the headings labeled “Core.” Segment net income attributable
to Acadia for our Core Portfolio decreased $36.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year as a result of the changes further
described below.
Revenues for our Core Portfolio increased $21.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year primarily due to (i) $15.1
million from Core Portfolio property acquisitions in 2021 and 2022 (Note 2), (ii) $2.2 million from lease up within the Core Portfolio, (iii) $2.1 million
collection of cash for a fully reserved tenant, (iv) $1.8 million from the write off of two tenant's below market leases, and (v) $0.9 million from the
conversion of tenants from cash to accrual basis. These increases were offset by a $0.9 million credit loss benefit related to the collection of previously
reserved tenants accounts in 2021.
Depreciation and amortization for our Core Portfolio increased $6.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year primarily
due to Core Portfolio acquisitions in 2021 and 2022.
Property operating expenses, other operating and real estate taxes for our Core Portfolio increased $3.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022
compared to the prior year primarily due to Core Portfolio property acquisitions in 2021 and 2022.
The gain on disposition of properties for our Core Portfolio of $7.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 relates to the sale of 330-340 River
Street of $7.4 million offset by a loss of $0.2 million for the sale of the Henderson Parcel. The gain on disposition of properties for our Core Portfolio of
$4.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 relates to the sale of 60 Orange Street (Note 3).
Equity in (losses) earnings of unconsolidated affiliates for our Core Portfolio decreased $46.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to
the prior year primarily due to the Company's $50.8 million proportionate share of an impairment charge at 840 N. Michigan Avenue
(Note 4). This decrease was offset by (i) a $2.2 million decrease in credit loss reserves in 2022 at unconsolidated properties related to the COVID-19
Pandemic, and (ii) $1.3 million for the acceleration of a below market tenant lease at a property in 2022.
Interest expense for our Core Portfolio increased $8.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year primarily due to $7.1
million from higher average outstanding borrowings in 2022, and by $1.3 million higher average interest rates in 2022.
Realized and unrealized holding gains (losses) on investments and other for our Core Portfolio includes $1.2 million related to the bargain purchase gain on
the acquisition of the Williamsburg Collection (Note 2).
42
Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests for our Core Portfolio decreased $3.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior
year based on the noncontrolling interests’ share of the variances discussed above.
Funds
The results of operations for our Funds segment are depicted in the table above under the headings labeled “Funds.” Segment net income attributable to
Acadia for the Funds decreased $28.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year as a result of the changes described below.
Revenues for the Funds increased $12.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year primarily due to (i) $13.7 million from
consolidated Fund property acquisitions in 2021 (Note 2), (ii) $4.4 million related to the completion and rent commencement from development projects
placed in service during 2021, (iii) $4.0 million from new tenant lease up, and (iv) a $3.0 million increase from the consolidation of a previously
unconsolidated investment. These increases were offset by a $11.4 million decrease from consolidated Fund property dispositions in 2021 and 2022 and
$1.0 million decrease due to reversals of credit loss reserves in 2021.
Depreciation and amortization for the Funds increased $6.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year primarily due to Fund
property acquisitions in 2021 (Note 2).
Impairment charges for the Funds increased $23.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year (Note 8). Impairment charges
totaling $33.3 million during 2022 relate to 146 Geary Street and 717 N. Michigan Avenue in Fund IV. Impairment charges totaling $9.9 million in 2021
related to 27 East 61st Street and 210 Bowery in Fund IV.
Gain on disposition of properties for the Funds increased $44.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year due to the sales of
Cortlandt Crossing at Fund III, Wake Forest Crossing, Lincoln Place, Mayfair and Dauphin at Fund IV, and a New Towne outparcel at Fund V in 2022
compared to the dispositions of 654 Broadway at Fund III, and the NE Grocer Portfolio and 110 University at Fund IV in 2021 (Note 2, Note 11).
Equity in (losses) earnings of unconsolidated affiliates for the Funds increased $8.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior
year due to the $12.8 million gain on sale of Promenade at Manassas in 2022 offset by a $3.2 million gain on sale related to two land parcels at Riverdale
Family Center in Fund V (Note 5) in 2021.
Interest expense for the Funds increased $3.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year primarily due to $6.6 million from
higher average rates in 2022, offset by $2.6 million from lower average outstanding borrowings in 2022.
Realized and unrealized holding gains (losses) on investments and other for the Funds decreased $89.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022
compared to the prior year primarily due to a $38.9 million mark-to-market unrealized loss on the Investment in Albertsons offset by $ 1.5 million related
to the Company's proportionate share of the gain on sale of Fund III's interest in Self Storage Management (Note 4) in 2022 compared to a $51.9 million
mark-to-market unrealized gain on the Investment in Albertsons in 2021.
Net loss (income) attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interests for the Funds increased $5.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared
to the prior year due to the City Point Loan in 2022 (Note 10).
Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests for the Funds decreased $23.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year
based on the noncontrolling interests’ share of the variances discussed above. Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Funds includes asset
management fees earned by the Company of $9.5 million and $11.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Structured Financing
The results of operations for our Structured Financing segment are depicted in the table above under the headings labeled “SF.” Interest and other income
for the Structured Financing portfolio increased $5.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year period primarily due to new
notes issued in 2021 and 2022 (Note 3). Realized and unrealized holding gains (losses) on investments and other for the Structured Financing Portfolio
increased $3.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the prior year due to a decrease in the allowance for credit loss.
Unallocated
The Company does not allocate general and administrative expense and income taxes to its reportable segments. These unallocated amounts are depicted in
the table above under the headings labeled “Total.” Unallocated general and administrative expense increased $4.0 million for the year ended December 31,
2022 compared to the prior year due to $2.0 million related to acquisition costs (Note 2) and $2.0 million from an increase in salaries.
Discussions of 2020 items and comparisons between the year ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, that are not included in this Report can be
found in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II, Item 7 of the Company’s Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Net Property Operating Income
The following discussion of net property operating income (“NOI”) and rent spreads on new and renewal leases includes the activity from both our
consolidated and our pro-rata share of unconsolidated properties within our Core Portfolio. Our Funds invest primarily in properties that typically require
43
significant leasing and development. Given that the Funds are finite-life investment vehicles, these properties are sold following stabilization. For these
reasons, we believe NOI and rent spreads are not meaningful measures for our Fund investments.
NOI represents property revenues less property expenses. We consider NOI and rent spreads on new and renewal leases for our Core Portfolio to be
appropriate supplemental disclosures of Core Portfolio operating performance due to their widespread acceptance and use within the REIT investor and
analyst communities. NOI and rent spreads on new and renewal leases are presented to assist investors in analyzing our property performance, however,
our method of calculating these may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

Funds from Operations
We consider funds from operations (“FFO”) as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) to be meaningful non-
GAAP measure of operating performance for an equity REIT due to its widespread acceptance and use within the REIT and analyst communities. FFO is
presented to assist investors in analyzing our performance. It is helpful as it excludes various items included in net income that are not indicative of the
operating performance, such as gains (losses) from sales of depreciated property, depreciation and amortization, and impairment of real estate. Our method
of calculating FFO may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. FFO does not
represent cash generated from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and is not indicative of cash available to fund
all cash needs, including distributions. It should not be considered as an alternative to net income for the purpose of evaluating our performance or to cash
flows as a measure of liquidity. Consistent with the NAREIT definition, we define FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding
gains (losses) from sales of depreciated property and impairment of depreciable real estate, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for
unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Also consistent with NAREIT’s definition of FFO, the Company has elected to include gains and losses
incidental to its main business (including those related to its RCP investments such as Albertsons) in FFO. A reconciliation of net income attributable to
Acadia to FFO follows (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Uses of Liquidity and Cash Requirements
Generally, our principal uses of liquidity are (i) distributions to our shareholders and OP unit holders, (ii) investments which include the funding of our
capital committed to the Funds and property acquisitions and development/re-tenanting activities within our Core Portfolio, (iii) distributions to our Fund
investors, (iv) debt service and loan repayments and (v) share repurchases.
Distributions
In order to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we must currently distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to our shareholders. During
the year ended December 31, 2022, we paid dividends and distributions on our Common Shares, Common OP Units and Preferred OP Units totaling $68.3
million.
Investments
During the year ended December 31, 2022, we made four new consolidated investments in our Core Portfolio and Fund V acquired three unconsolidated
properties totaling $425.0 million as described below (Note 2, Note 4):
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
On January 12, 2022, we acquired a retail condominium referred to as 121 Spring Street located in Soho, New York City, for $39.6 million,
inclusive of transaction costs.
On February 18, 2022, we invested $97.8 million in a group of properties referred to as the Williamsburg Collection located in Brooklyn,
New York.

On June 27, 2022, we made an $18.5 million investment in Fund II and Mervyns II increasing our ownership in each by 11.67% to 40.00%. Additionally,
on August 1, 2022, we made an additional $5.8 million investment in Fund II and increased our ownership by 21.67% to 61.67% (Note 1). As the Company
retained its controlling interest in Fund II and Mervyns II, we accounted for these additional investments as equity transactions.
On January 27, 2023, Fund V acquired a 90% interest in an unconsolidated venture. The venture purchased a shopping center referred to as Mohawk
Commons in Schenectady, New York, for $62.1 million, inclusive of transaction costs (Note 17).
Structured Financing Investments
On August 1, 2022, we originated the City Point Loan to other Fund II investors of $65.9 million (Note 3, Note 10). We funded $7.5 million of a $12.8
million construction loan commitment to an unconsolidated venture (Note 4). Fund V originated a temporary bridge loan of $31.7 million to an
unconsolidated venture in the third quarter (Note 4).
Capital Commitments
During the year ended December 31, 2022, we made capital contributions aggregating $25.6 million to our Funds and $106.1 million to Fund II along with
the City Point Loan to other Fund II investors (see Structured Financing Investments above) (Note 10). Additionally, we made an additional $24.3 million
investment in Fund II and Mervyns II, increasing our ownership from 28.33% in each to 61.67% and 40.00%, respectively (Note 1).
At December 31, 2022, our share of the remaining capital commitments to our Funds aggregated $44.8 million as follows:
•
•
$0.0 million to Fund II. During August 2020, a recallable distribution of $15.7 million was made by Mervyn’s II to its investors, of which our
share is $4.5 million. During 2021 and 2022, Mervyn’s II recalled $11.9 million and $3.8 million, respectively, of the $15.7 million of which our
share is $3.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively.
$0.5 million to Fund III. Fund III was launched in May 2007 with total committed capital of $450.0 million of which our share was $89.6
million. During 2015, we acquired an additional interest, which had an original capital commitment of $20.9 million.
47
•
•
$9.7 million to Fund IV. Fund IV was launched in May 2012 with total committed capital of $530.0 million of which our share was $122.5
million.
$34.6 million to Fund V. Fund V was launched in August 2016 with total committed capital of $520.0 million of which our share is $104.5
million.
Development Activities
During the year ended December 31, 2022, capitalized costs associated with development activities totaled $4.9 million (Note 2). At December 31, 2022,
we had a total of nine consolidated projects and one unconsolidated project under development or redevelopment, for which the estimated total cost to
complete these projects through 2025 was $70.8 million to $98.0 million, and our estimated share was approximately $49.7 million to $69.2 million.
Substantially all remaining development and redevelopment costs are discretionary, which could be affected by various risks and uncertainties, including,
but not limited to, the effects of the current inflationary environment, rising interest rates, and other risks detailed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors.

As of December 31, 2022, our consolidated indebtedness aggregated $1,805.4 million, excluding unamortized premium of $0.3 million and unamortized
loan costs of $12.7 million, and were collateralized by 31 properties and related tenant leases. Stated interest rates on our outstanding indebtedness ranged
from 3.35% to LIBOR + 3.65% with maturities that ranged from January 2023 to April 2035, without regard to available extension options. Taking into
consideration $1,264.0 million of notional principal under variable to fixed-rate swap agreements currently in effect, $1,440.8 million of the portfolio debt,
or 79.8%, was fixed at a 5.19% weighted-average interest rate and $364.6 million, or 20.2% was floating at a 6.13% weighted average interest rate as of
December 31, 2022. Our variable-rate debt includes $103.8 million of debt subject to interest rate caps.
Without regard to available extension options, at December 31, 2022 there is $333.0 million of debt maturing in 2023 at a weighted-average interest rate of
6.06%; there is $7.1 million of scheduled principal amortization due in 2023; and our share of scheduled 2023 principal payments and maturities on our
unconsolidated debt was $47.2 million. In addition, $251.7 million of our total consolidated debt and $45.0 million of our
pro-rata share of unconsolidated debt will come due in 2024. As it relates to the aforementioned maturing debt in 2023 and 2024, we have options to extend
consolidated debt aggregating $51.2 million and $0.0 million at December 31, 2022, respectively; however, there can be no assurance that we will be able
to successfully execute any or all of its available extension options. As it relates to the remaining maturing debt in 2023 and 2024, we may not have
sufficient cash on hand to repay such indebtedness, and, therefore, we expect to refinance at least a portion of this indebtedness or select other alternatives
based on market conditions as these loans mature; however, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain financing at acceptable terms or at all.
Our ability to obtain financing could be affected by various risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the effects of the current inflationary
environment, rising interest rates, and other risks detailed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors
Share Repurchase Program
We maintain a share repurchase program under which $122.5 million remains available as of December 31, 2022 (Note 10). The Company did not
repurchase any of its Common Shares under this program during the year ended December 31, 2022.
Sources of Liquidity
Our primary sources of capital for funding our short-term (less than 12 months) and long-term (12 months and longer) liquidity needs include (i) the
issuance of both public equity and OP Units, (ii) the issuance of both secured and unsecured debt, (iii) unfunded capital commitments from noncontrolling
interests within our Funds, (iv) future sales of existing properties, (v) repayments of structured financing investments, and (vi) cash on hand and future cash
flow from operating activities. Our cash on hand in our consolidated subsidiaries at December 31, 2022 totaled $17.2 million. Our remaining sources of
liquidity are described further below.
ATM Program
48
We have an ATM Program (Note 10) that provides us with an efficient and low-cost vehicle for raising capital through public equity issuances on an as-
we-go basis to fund our capital needs. Through this program, we have been able to effectively “match-fund” the required capital for our Core Portfolio and
Fund acquisitions through the issuance of Common Shares over extended periods employing a price averaging strategy. In addition, from time to time, we
have issued and intend to continue to issue, equity in follow-on offerings separate from our ATM Program. Net proceeds raised through our ATM Program
and follow-on offerings are primarily used for acquisitions, both for our Core Portfolio and our pro-rata share of Fund acquisitions, and for general
corporate purposes. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we sold 5,525,419 shares under our ATM Program for gross proceeds of $123.9 million, or
$119.5 million net of issuance costs, at a weighted-average gross price per share of $22.43.
Fund Capital
During the year ended December 31, 2022, Funds II and V called for capital contributions of $175.8 million and $121.7 million, respectively, of which our
aggregate share was $131.7 million, inclusive of $106.1 million to Fund II along with the City Point Loan to other Fund II investors (see Structured
Financing Investments above). At December 31, 2022, unfunded capital commitments from noncontrolling interests within our Funds II, III, IV and V were
zero, $1.4 million, $32.2 million, and $137.5 million, respectively.
Asset Sales and Other Transactions
During the year ended December 31, 2022, we disposed of one Core property, five consolidated Fund properties, two land parcels and two unconsolidated
investments as follows (Note 2):
•
•
•
•
•
•

On February 1, 2022, Fund V sold a land parcel at its consolidated New Towne Center property for $2.2 million, and recognized a gain of
$1.8 million, of which the Company’s proportionate share was $0.4 million. Fund V used a portion of the proceeds to repay $1.1 million of
the property's mortgage.
On February 9, 2022, Fund III sold its consolidated Cortlandt Crossing property for $65.5 million and repaid the related debt of $34.5

On May 25, 2022, Fund IV sold its consolidated Lincoln Place shopping center for $40.7 million, repaid the related debt of $22.7 million and
recognized a gain of $12.2 million, of which the Company's proportionate share was $3.0 million.
On August 24, 2022, Fund IV solids its consolidated Wake Forest Crossing property for $38.9 million and repaid the related debt of $20.7
million. Fund IV recognized a gain of $8.9 million, of which the Company's proportionate share was $2.1 million.
On October 7, 2022, we sold a land parcel at our Henderson Avenue property for $3.0 million and recognized a loss of $0.2 million.
On October 13, 2022, Fund IV sold its unconsolidated Promenade at Manassas property for a total of $46.0 million and repaid the related

On December 13, 2022, we sold our 330-340 River Street properties for $26.4 million, repaid the related debt of $10.3 million and
recognized a gain of $7.4 million.
We recognized aggregate gains of $57.1 million on the sales of the above properties during the year ended December 31, 2022, excluding the gain
recognized on the sale of our unconsolidated properties, of which our share was $23.3 million.
In January 2023, we recognized cash dividends totaling $28.2 million related to the special dividend received from Mervyns II investment in Albertsons, of
which our share was $11.3 million (Note 17).
Structured Financing Repayments
During the year ended December 31, 2022, we received full payment on a $16.0 million and $13.5 million first mortgage loan, respectively (Note 3). In
January 2022, through an affiliate of Fund III, foreclosed on one Structured Financing loan in the amount of $10.0 million including accrued interest
(exclusive of default interest and other amounts due on the loan that have not been recognized), which had previously been in default. We also have one
Structured Financing investment in the amount of $21.6 million including accrued interest (exclusive of default interest and other amounts due on the loan
that have not been recognized), that previously matured and has not been repaid. Scheduled maturities of Structured Financing loans include $39.3 million
maturing during 2023 (Note 3).
49
Financing and Debt
As of December 31, 2022, we had $173.5 million of additional capacity under existing consolidated Core and Fund revolving debt facilities. In addition, at
that date within our Core and Fund portfolios, we had 94 unleveraged consolidated properties with an aggregate carrying value of approximately $1.8
billion, although there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain financing for these properties at favorable terms, if at all.
Inflation and Economic Condition Considerations
In the past two years, microeconomic and macroeconomic conditions, including the fallout from the COVID-19 Pandemic, the war in Ukraine, supply-
chain disruptions, and the recessionary outlook of the current financial markets, has increased volatility in the market and has caused a surge in already
increasing inflation and interest rates. We believe we manage our properties in a cost-conscious manner to minimize recurring operational expenses and
utilize multi-year contracts to alleviate the impact of inflation on our business and our tenants. Most of our leases require tenants to pay their share of
operating expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in costs and operating
expenses resulting from inflation. These provisions are designed to partially mitigate the impact of inflation; however, current inflation levels are much
greater than the contractual rent increases we obtain from our tenant base. The rate hikes enacted by the Federal Reserve have had a significant impact on
interest rate indexes such as LIBOR, SOFR and the Prime Rate. As of December 31, 2022, approximately 79.8% of our outstanding debt is fixed or
effectively fixed interest rate with the remaining 20.2% indexed to LIBOR, SOFR or Prime plus an applicable margin per the loan agreement. As of
December 31, 2022, we were counterparty to 36 interest rate swap agreements and three interest rate cap agreements, all of which qualify for and are
designated as hedging instruments, which helps to alleviate the impact of rising interest rates on our operations. While we have not experienced any
material negative impacts at this time, we are actively managing our business to respond to the ongoing economic and social impact from such events. See
Item 1A Risk Factors.

Our operating activities provided $28.2 million more cash during the year ended December 31, 2022 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021,
primarily due to Core and Fund property acquisitions and an increase in cash receipts from tenants.
Investing Activities
During the year ended December 31, 2022 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021, our investing activities used $74.3 million less cash,
primarily due to (i) $160.7 million more cash received from the disposition of properties, (ii) $60.1 million more cash received from return of capital from
unconsolidated affiliates and other, (iii) $57.9 million less cash used in the issuance of notes receivable, and (iv) $29.5 million more cash received from
proceeds from notes receivable. These sources of cash were primarily offset by (i)$139.9 million more cash used for investments in and advances to
unconsolidated affiliate, (ii) $81.5 million more cash used to acquire properties in 2022, and (iii) $10.4 million more cash used for development,
construction and property improvement costs.
Financing Activities
Our financing activities used $95.7 million more cash during the year ended December 31, 2022 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2021,
primarily from (i) $125.0 million more cash used by net borrowings, (ii) $78.6 million more cash used for the acquisition of and distributions to
noncontrolling interests, and (iii) $25.1 million more cash used in dividends paid to common shareholders. These uses of cash were partially offset by (i)
$79.3 million more cash provided by contributions from noncontrolling interests and (ii) $55.6 million more cash provided by the sale of Common Shares.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have the following investments made through joint ventures (that may include, among others, tenancy-in common and other similar investments) for
the purpose of investing in operating properties. We account for these investments using the equity method of accounting. As such, our financial statements
reflect our investment and our share of income and loss from, but not the individual assets and liabilities, of these joint ventures.
See Note 4 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, for a discussion of our unconsolidated investments. The Operating Partnership’s pro-rata
share of unconsolidated non-recourse debt related to those investments is as follows (dollars in millions):

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our Consolidated Financial Statements, which have
been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and
judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience and assumptions
that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying value of assets and
liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We
believe the following critical accounting policies affect the significant judgments and estimates used by us in the preparation of our Consolidated Financial
Statements.
Impairment of Properties and Investments in and Advances to Unconsolidated Affiliates
On a periodic basis, we assess whether there are any indicators that the value of real estate assets, including undeveloped land and construction in progress,
may be impaired. A property’s value is impaired only if the estimate of the aggregate future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) to be
generated by the property are less than the carrying value of the property. The determination of undiscounted cash flows requires significant estimates by
management. In management’s estimate of cash flows, it considers factors such as expected future sale of an asset or development alternatives,
capitalization rates and the undiscounted future cash flows analysis, which is probability-weighted based upon management’s best estimate of the
likelihood of the alternative courses of action. Expected future cash flows and recoverability conclusions could be materially impacted by changes in items
such as future leasing activity, occupancy, property operating costs, market pricing, our view or strategy relative to a tenant’s business or industry, the
manner in which a property is used and the expected hold period of an asset. Subsequent changes in estimated undiscounted cash flows arising from
changes in anticipated actions could affect the determination of whether an impairment exists and whether the effects could have a material impact on the
Company’s net income. To the extent an impairment has occurred, the loss will be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the property over the
fair value of the property.
The Company is required to make subjective assessments as to whether there are impairments in the value of its real estate properties and other
investments. These assessments have a direct impact on the Company’s estimates of the projected future cash flows, anticipated holding periods or market
conditions change, its evaluation of the impairment charges may be different, and such differences could be material to the Company’s consolidated
financial statements. Plans to hold properties over longer periods decrease the likelihood of recording impairment losses.
We periodically review our investment in unconsolidated joint ventures and other cost-method investments for other-than-temporary declines in market
value. An impairment charge is recorded for a decline that is considered to be other-than-temporary as a reduction in the carrying value of the investment.
During 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized impairment charges on properties of $33.3 million and $9.9 million, respectively. See Note 8 for a
discussion of impairments recognized during the periods presented.
Additionally, during 2022, the Company impaired its unconsolidated investment in 840 N. Michigan Avenue resulting in a charge of $50.8 million. See
Note 4 for a discussion of impairments recognized during the periods presented.
51
Bad Debts
We assess the collectability of our accounts receivable related to tenant revenues under ASC Topic 842 “Leases” (“ASC 842”). Management exercises
judgment in assessing collectability and considers customer credit worthiness, assessment of risk associated with the tenant, and current economic trends,
among other factors. In addition to the lease-specific collectability assessment performed under ASC 842, the Company may also recognize a general
reserve based on the Company’s historical collection experience, as provided under ASC 450-20, as a reduction to Lease income for its portfolio of
operating lease receivables which are not expected to be fully collectible. Billed tenant receivables, and receivables arising from the straight-lining of rents,
are reserved when management deems the collectability of substantially all future lease payments from a specific lease is not probable, at which point, the
Company will begin recognizing revenue from such leases prospectively on a cash basis, based on actual amounts received. If the Company subsequently
determines that it is probable it will collect substantially all of the lessee’s remaining lease payments under the lease term, the Company will reinstate the
receivables balance, including those arising from the straight-lining of rents, adjusting for the amount related to the period when the lease was accounted
for on a cash basis.
Rents receivable at December 31, 2022 and 2021 are shown net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $32.1 million and $38.5 million, respectively
(Note 11). Rental income for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 are reported net of adjustments to allowances for doubtful accounts of
$(0.4) million, $(0.1) million, and $46.4 million, respectively.
Real Estate
Real estate assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for acquisition, development, construction and improvement of properties,
as well as significant renovations are capitalized. Interest costs are capitalized until construction is substantially complete. Construction in progress
includes costs for significant property expansion and development. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of 40
years for buildings, the shorter of the useful life or lease term for tenant improvements and five years for furniture, fixtures, and equipment. Expenditures
for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.
Upon acquisitions of real estate, we assess the fair value of acquired assets (including land, buildings and improvements, and identified intangibles such as
above and below-market leases and acquired in-place leases) and acquired liabilities in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805 “Business Combinations” and ASC Topic 350 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other,” and
allocate purchase price based on their relative fair values. When acquisitions of properties do not meet the criteria for business combinations, as is the case
for the majority of the Company’s acquisitions, no goodwill is recorded, and acquisition costs are capitalized. We assess fair value based on estimated cash
flow projections that utilize appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a
number of factors including the historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions that may affect the property.
Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable
Leases with tenants are accounted for as operating leases. Minimum rents are recognized on a straight-line basis over the non-cancelable term of the
respective leases. Certain of these leases also provide for percentage rents based upon the level of sales achieved by the tenant. Percentage rent is
recognized in the period when the tenants’ sales breakpoint is met. In addition, leases typically provide for the reimbursement to us of real estate taxes,
insurance, and other property operating expenses. These reimbursements are recognized as revenue in the period the expenses are incurred.
We assess the collectability of our accounts receivable related to tenant revenues as described under the heading “Bad Debts” above.
Structured Financings
Real estate notes receivable investments and preferred equity investments (“Structured Financings”) are intended to be held to maturity and are carried at
cost less an allowance for credit loss. Interest income from Structured Financings is recognized on the effective interest method over the expected life of
the loan. Under the effective interest method, interest or fees to be collected at the origination of the Structured Financing investment is recognized over the
term of the loan as an adjustment to yield. Changes in cash flows from previous estimates are included in future interest income on a prospective basis and
a new effective interest rate is computed based on the current cost basis of the instrument and remaining cash flows.
Allowances for credit loss related to our Structured Financing investments are established based upon management’s quarterly review of the investments.
In performing this review, management considers the estimated net recoverable value of the investment as well as other factors, including the fair value of
any collateral, the amount and status of any senior debt, and the prospects for the borrower. Because this determination is based upon projections of future
economic events, which are inherently subjective, the amounts ultimately realized from the Structured Financings may differ materially from the carrying
value at the balance sheet date. Interest income recognition is generally suspended for investments when, in the opinion of management, a full recovery of
income and principal becomes doubtful. Income recognition is resumed when the suspended investment becomes contractually current, and performance is
demonstrated to be resumed.
Notes receivable at December 31, 2022 and 2021 are reported net of an allowance for credit loss of $0.9 million and $5.8 million, respectively (Note 3).

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Information as of December 31, 2022
Our primary market risk exposure is to changes in interest rates related to our mortgage and other debt. See Note 7 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements, for certain quantitative details related to our mortgage and other debt.
Currently, we manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates primarily through the use of fixed-rate debt and interest rate swap and cap agreements.
As of December 31, 2022, we had total mortgage and other notes payable of $1,805.4 million, excluding the unamortized premium of $0.3 million and
unamortized debt issuance costs of $12.7 million, of which $1,440.8 million, or 79.8% was fixed-rate, inclusive of debt with rates fixed through the use of
derivative financial instruments, and $364.6 million, or 20.2%, was variable-rate based upon LIBOR rates plus certain spreads. As of December 31, 2022,
we were party to 36 interest rate swap and three interest rate cap agreements to hedge our exposure to changes in interest rates with respect to $1,264.0
million and $103.8 million of LIBOR or SOFR-based variable-rate debt, respectively. For a discussion of the risks associated with the discontinuation of
LIBOR, see Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Liquidity and Indebtedness — If we decided to employ higher leverage levels, we would be
subject to increased debt service requirements and a higher risk of default on our debt obligations, which could adversely affect our financial conditions,
cash flows and ability to make distributions to our shareholders. In addition, increases or changes in interest rates could cause our borrowing costs to rise
and may limit our ability to refinance debt.
The following table sets forth information as of December 31, 2022 concerning our long-term debt obligations, including principal cash flows by scheduled
maturity and weighted average interest rates of maturing amounts (dollars in millions):

Without regard to available extension options, in 2023, $340.1 million of our total consolidated debt and $47.2 million of our pro-rata share of
unconsolidated outstanding debt will become due. In addition, $251.7 million of our total consolidated debt and $45.0 million of our pro-rata share of
unconsolidated debt will become due in 2024. As it relates to the maturing debt in 2023 and 2024, we have options to extend consolidated debt aggregating
$51.2 million and $0.0 million, respectively; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully execute any or all of its
available extension options. As we intend on refinancing some or all of such debt at the then-existing market interest rates, which may be greater than the
current interest rate, our interest expense would increase by approximately $6.8 million annually if the interest rate on the refinanced debt increased by 100
basis points. After giving effect to noncontrolling interests, our share of this increase would be $1.3 million. Interest expense on our variable-rate debt of
$364.6 million, net of variable to fixed-rate swap agreements currently in effect, as of December 31, 2022, would increase $3.6 million if interest rates
increased by 100 basis points. After giving effect to noncontrolling interests, our share of this increase would be $1.2 million. We may seek additional
variable-rate financing if and when pricing and other commercial and financial terms warrant. As such, we would consider hedging against the interest rate
risk related to such additional variable-rate debt through interest rate swaps and protection agreements, or other means.
Based on our outstanding debt balances as of December 31, 2022, the fair value of our total consolidated outstanding debt would decrease by
approximately $5.4 million if interest rates increase by 1%. Conversely, if interest rates decrease by 1%, the fair value of our total outstanding debt would
increase by approximately $6.5 million.
As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, we had consolidated notes receivable of $123.9 million and $153.9 million, respectively. We determined the
estimated fair value of our notes receivable by discounting future cash receipts utilizing a discount rate equivalent to the rate at which similar notes
receivable would be originated under conditions then existing.
Based on our outstanding notes receivable balances as of December 31, 2022, the fair value of our total outstanding notes receivable would decrease by
approximately $0.4 million if interest rates increase by 1%. Conversely, if interest rates decrease by 1%, the fair value of our total outstanding notes
receivable would increase by approximately $2.6 million.
Summarized Information as of December 31, 2021
As of December 31, 2021, we had total mortgage and other notes payable of $1,819.7 million, excluding the unamortized premium of $0.4 million and
unamortized debt issuance costs of $7.9 million, of which $1,038.8 million, or 57.1% was fixed-rate, inclusive of debt with rates fixed through the use of
derivative financial instruments, and $780.9 million, or 42.9%, was variable-rate based upon LIBOR, SOFR or Prime rates plus certain spreads. As of
December 31, 2021, we were party to 28 interest rate swap and three interest rate cap agreements to hedge our exposure to changes in interest rates with
respect to $860.4 million and $110.5 million of variable-rate debt, respectively.
Interest expense on our variable-rate debt of $780.9 million as of December 31, 2021, would have increased $7.8 million if corresponding rate indices
increased by 100 basis points. Based on our outstanding debt balances as of December 31, 2021, the fair value of our total outstanding debt would have
decreased by approximately $8.4 million if interest rates increased by 1%. Conversely, if interest rates decreased by 1%, the fair value of our total
outstanding debt would have increased by approximately $16.0 million.
Changes in Market Risk Exposures from December 31, 2021 to December 31, 2022
Our interest rate risk exposure from December 31, 2021, to December 31, 2022, has decreased on an absolute basis, as the $780.9 million of variable-rate
debt as of December 31, 2021, has decreased to $364.6 million as of December 31, 2022. As a percentage of our overall debt, our interest rate risk exposure
has decreased as our variable-rate debt accounted for 42.9% of our consolidated debt as of December 31, 2021 compared to 20.2% as of December 31,
2022.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Shareholders and Board of Trustees
Acadia Realty Trust
Rye, New York
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Acadia Realty Trust (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the related
consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 2022, and the related notes and financial statement schedules listed in the accompanying index (collectively referred to as the
“consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
the Company at December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December
31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the Company's
internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued
by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) and our report dated March 1, 2023 expressed an unqualified
opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s
consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with
respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or
fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and
disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was
communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated
financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of a critical audit matter does not
alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below,
providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Assessment of Impairment of Real Estate and Real Estate Related Investments
As described in Notes 2, 4 and 6 to the consolidated financial statements, as of December 31, 2022, the Company’s net investment in real estate was $3.5
billion, the net carrying value of intangible lease assets was $0.1 billion, and the carrying value of investments in and advances to unconsolidated affiliates
was $0.3 billion. The Company tests the recoverability of the real estate and intangible lease assets held by the Company and its unconsolidated affiliates,
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that amounts may not be recoverable. The Company identified impairment indicators, which resulted
in the Company recording impairment charges of $33.3 million in 2022 related to its consolidated real estate investments and $50.8 million, representing
the Company’s share of real estate impairment related to its unconsolidated affiliate.
We identified the assessment of impairment of the real estate and intangible lease assets held by the Company and its unconsolidated affiliates as a critical
audit matter due to the complexity of management’s judgments relating to: (i) the assessment of impairment indicators for the real estate and intangible
lease assets held by the Company and its unconsolidated affiliates, including long-term vacancy, recurring negative cash flows and tenant bankruptcies, (ii)
the assessment of assumptions used in the expected future undiscounted cash flows for certain properties, and (iii) the assessment of assumptions used in
the measurement of impairment of certain properties, including discount rates, market rents and capitalization rates, given the inherent uncertainties that
exist related to the Company’s forecasts and how various economic and other factors could affect the Company’s forecasted future cash flows. Auditing
management’s assumptions relating to its assessment of potential impairment indicators, market rents and capitalization rates used in the cash flow
projections, and the discount rates used in the measurement of impairment, involved especially challenging auditor judgment due to the nature and extent of
audit effort required to address these matters, including the extent of specialized skill or knowledge required.
The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
•
•
Evaluating management's assessment of potential impairment indicators which could result in impairment, including long-term vacancy,
recurring negative cash flows and tenant bankruptcies.

ACADIA REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization
Acadia Realty Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust (collectively with its subsidiaries, the “Company”), is a fully-integrated equity real estate
investment trust (“REIT”) focused on the ownership, acquisition, development, and management of retail properties located primarily in high-barrier-to-
entry, supply-constrained, densely populated metropolitan areas in the United States.
All of the Company’s assets are held by, and all of its operations are conducted through, Acadia Realty Limited Partnership (the “Operating Partnership”)
and entities in which the Operating Partnership owns an interest. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company controlled approximately 95% of the
Operating Partnership as the sole general partner and is entitled to share, in proportion to its percentage interest, in the cash distributions and profits and
losses of the Operating Partnership. The limited partners primarily represent entities or individuals that contributed their interests in certain properties or
entities to the Operating Partnership in exchange for common or preferred units of limited partnership interest (“Common OP Units” or “Preferred OP
Units”) and employees who have been awarded restricted Common OP Units (“LTIP Units”) as long-term incentive compensation (Note 13). Limited
partners holding Common OP and LTIP Units are generally entitled to exchange their units on a one-for-one basis for common shares of beneficial interest,
par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (“Common Shares”). This structure is referred to as an umbrella partnership REIT or “UPREIT.”
As of December 31, 2022, the Company has ownership interests in 151 properties within its core portfolio, which consist of those properties either 100%
owned, or partially owned through joint venture interests, by the Operating Partnership, or subsidiaries thereof, not including those properties owned
through its funds (“Core Portfolio”). The Company also has ownership interests in 51 properties within its opportunity funds, Acadia Strategic Opportunity
Fund II, LLC (“Fund II”), Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund III LLC (“Fund III”), Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund IV LLC (“Fund IV”), and Acadia
Strategic Opportunity Fund V LLC (“Fund V” and, collectively with Fund II, Fund III, and Fund IV, the “Funds”). The 202 Core Portfolio and Fund
properties primarily consist of street and urban retail, and suburban shopping centers. In addition, the Company, together with the investors in the Funds,
invested in operating companies through Acadia Mervyn Investors I, LLC (“Mervyns I,” which was liquidated in 2018) and Acadia Mervyn Investors II,
LLC (“Mervyns II”), all on a non-recourse basis.
The Operating Partnership is the sole general partner or managing member of the Funds and Mervyns II and earns fees or priority distributions for asset
management, property management, construction, development, leasing, and legal services. Cash flows from the Funds and Mervyns II are distributed pro-
rata to their respective partners and members (including the Operating Partnership) until each receives a certain cumulative return (“Preferred Return”) and
the return of all capital contributions. Thereafter, remaining cash flow is distributed 20% to the Operating Partnership (“Promote”) and 80% to the partners
or members (including the Operating Partnership). All transactions between the Funds and the Operating Partnership have been eliminated in consolidation.

During the second quarter of 2022, the Company increased its ownership in Fund II and Mervyns II through an acquisition of its partner's interest by 11.67%, from 28.33% to
40.00%, for $18.5 million. Additionally, during the third quarter of 2022, the Company increased its ownership in Fund II through an acquisition of a partner's interest by
21.67%, from 40.00% to 61.67%, for $5.8 million. Each of the remaining partners in Fund II have a right to put their equity interests to the Company beginning in August 2023. As
the Company retained its controlling interest, these additional investments were accounted for as equity transactions (Note 10).

During August 2020, a recallable distribution of $15.7 million was made by Mervyn’s II to its investors, of which $4.5 million was the Company’s share. During 2021 and 2022,
Mervyn’s II recalled $11.9 million and $3.8 million, respectively, of the $15.7 million, of which the Company's share is $3.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively.
As of August 23, 2022, Fund V's investment period was extended to August 25, 2023.
Basis of Presentation
Segments
At December 31, 2022, the Company had three reportable operating segments: Core Portfolio, Funds and Structured Financing. The Company’s chief
operating decision maker may review operational and financial data on a property-level basis and does not differentiate properties on a geographical basis
for purposes of allocating resources or capital.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of the Company and its investments in partnerships and limited liability companies
in which the Company has control, including where the Company has been determined to be a primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity ("VIE"), in
accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810 “Consolidation” (“ASC Topic
810”). The ownership interests of other investors in these entities are recorded as noncontrolling interests. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements
and accompanying notes. The most significant assumptions and estimates relate to the valuation of real estate, depreciable lives, revenue recognition and
the collectability of notes receivable and rents receivable. Application of these estimates and assumptions requires the exercise of judgment as to future
uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Real Estate
Land, buildings, and personal property are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Improvements and significant renovations that extend the useful
life of the properties are capitalized, while replacements, maintenance, and repairs that do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are
expensed as incurred. Real estate under development includes costs for significant property expansion and development.
Depreciation is computed on the straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:
Buildings and improvements
Furniture and fixtures
Tenant improvements
Useful lives of 40 years for buildings and 15 years for improvements
Useful lives, ranging from five years to 10 years
Shorter of economic life or lease terms
Purchase Accounting – Upon acquisitions of real estate, the Company assesses the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities (including land,
buildings and improvements, and identified intangibles such as above- and below-market leases and acquired in-place leases) and assumed liabilities in
accordance with ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations” and ASC Topic 350 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other,” and allocates the acquisition price
based on their relative fair values. When acquisitions of properties do not meet the criteria for business combinations, they are accounted for as asset
acquisitions; therefore, no goodwill is recorded, and acquisition costs are capitalized.
The Company assesses fair value of its tangible assets acquired and assumed liabilities based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate
discount and capitalization rates and available market information at the measurement period. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of
factors including the historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions that may affect the property.
In determining the value of above- and below-market leases, the Company estimates the present value difference between contractual rent obligations and
estimated market rate of leases at the time of the transaction. To the extent there were fixed-rate options at below-market rental
65
ACADIA REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
rates, the Company included these periods along with the current term below-market rent in arriving at the fair value of the acquired leases. The discounted
difference between contract and market rents is being amortized to rental income over the remaining applicable lease term, inclusive of any option periods.
In determining the value of acquired in-place leases, the Company considers market conditions at the time of the transaction and values the costs to execute
similar leases during the expected lease-up period from vacancy to existing occupancy, including carrying costs. The value assigned to in-place leases and
tenant relationships is amortized over the estimated remaining term of the leases. If a lease were to be terminated prior to its scheduled expiration, all
unamortized costs (e.g., lease intangibles) relating to that lease would be written off.
The Company estimates the value of any assumption of mortgage debt based on market conditions at the time of acquisitions including prevailing interest
rates, terms, and ability to obtain financing for a similar asset. Mortgage debt discounts or premiums are amortized into interest expense over the remaining
term of the related debt instrument.
Real Estate Under Development – The Company capitalizes certain costs related to the development of real estate. Interest and real estate taxes incurred
during the period of the construction, expansion or development of real estate are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated useful life of the building.
The Company will cease the capitalization of these costs when construction activities are substantially completed and the property is available for
occupancy by tenants, but no later than one year from the completion of major construction activity at which time the project is placed in service and
depreciation commences. If the Company suspends substantially all activities related to the development of a qualifying asset, the Company will cease
capitalization of interest and taxes until activities are resumed.
Real Estate Impairment – The Company reviews its real estate, real estate under development and right-of-use assets for impairment when there is an event
or a change in circumstances that indicates that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. In cases where the Company does not expect to recover its
carrying amounts on properties held for use, the Company reduces its carrying amounts to fair value. The determination of anticipated undiscounted cash
flows is inherently subjective, requiring significant estimates made by management, and considers the most likely expected course of action at the balance
sheet date based on current plans, intended holding periods and available market information. If the Company is evaluating the potential sale of an asset,
the undiscounted future cash flows analysis is probability-weighted based upon management’s best estimate of the likelihood of the alternative courses of
action as of the balance sheet date. Such cash flow projections consider factors such as expected future operating income, trends, and prospects, as well as
the effects of demand, competition, and other factors. If an impairment is indicated, an impairment loss is recognized based on the excess of the carrying
amount of the asset over its estimated fair value. See Note 8 for information about impairment charges recorded during the periods presented.
Dispositions of Real Estate – The Company recognizes property sales in accordance with ASC Topic 610-20 “Other Income—Gains and losses from the
derecognition of nonfinancial assets.” Sales of real estate include the sale of land, operating properties, and investments in real estate joint ventures. Gains
on sale of investment properties are recognized, and the related real estate derecognized, when the Company has satisfied its performance obligations by
transferring control of the property. Typically, the timing of payment and satisfaction of performance obligations occur simultaneously on the disposition
date upon transfer of the property’s ownership.
Real Estate Held for Sale – The Company generally considers assets to be held for sale when it has entered into a contract to sell the property, all material
due diligence requirements have been satisfied, and management believes it is probable that the disposition will occur within one year. Assets that are
classified as held for sale are recorded at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell.
Notes Receivable
Notes receivable include certain loans that are held for investment and are collateralized by real estate-related investments and may be subordinate to other
senior loans. Notes receivable are reported net of allowance for credit loss ("CECL") and are recorded at stated principal amounts or at initial investment
less accretive yield for loans purchased at a discount, which is accreted over the life of the note. The Company defers loan origination and commitment
fees, net of origination costs, and amortizes them over the term of the related loan. Changes in cash flows from previous estimates are included in future
interest income on a prospective basis and a new effective interest rate is computed based on the current cost basis of the instrument and remaining cash
flows. The Company evaluates the collectability of both principal and interest based upon an assessment of the underlying collateral value to determine
whether it is impaired. Allowance for credit loss represents management’s estimate of future losses based on national historical economic loss rates for
similar obligations, management’s estimate of future economic impacts and factors specific to the borrower. Certain of the Company’s loans are considered
“collateral dependent” in that settlement of the amount is likely to be achieved by obtaining access to the collateral (e.g., notes in default). The same
valuation techniques are used to value the collateral for such collateral dependent instruments as those used to determine the fair value of real estate
investments for impairment purposes. Given the small number of notes outstanding, the Company believes the characteristics of its notes are not
sufficiently similar to allow an evaluation as a group for credit loss allowance. As such, all of the Company’s notes are evaluated individually for this
purpose. Interest income on performing notes is
66
ACADIA REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
accrued as earned. A note is placed on non-accrual status when, based upon current information and events, it is probable that the Company will not be able
to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. Income accrual is generally suspended for loans when recovery of income and
principal becomes doubtful. Interest received is then recorded as a reduction in the outstanding principal balance until the accrual is resumed when it is
probable that the Company will be able to collect amounts due according to the contractual terms of the notes.
Investments in and Advances to Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
Some of the Company’s joint ventures obtain non-recourse third-party financing on their property investments, contractually limiting the Company’s
exposure to losses. The Company recognizes income for distributions in excess of its investment where there is no recourse to the Company and no
intention or obligation to contribute additional capital. For investments in which there is recourse to the Company or an obligation or intention to contribute
additional capital exists, distributions in excess of the investment are recorded as a liability.
When characterizing distributions from equity investees within the Company's consolidated statements of cash flows, all distributions received are first
applied as returns on investment to the extent there are cumulative earnings related to the respective investment and are classified as cash inflows from
operating activities. If cumulative distributions are in excess of cumulative earnings, distributions are considered return of investment. In such cases, the
distribution is classified as cash inflows from investing activities.
To the extent that the Company’s carrying basis in an unconsolidated affiliate is different from the basis reflected at the joint venture level, the basis
difference is amortized over the life of the related assets and included in the Company’s share of equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated affiliates the
joint venture.
The Company periodically reviews its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures for other-than-temporary losses in investment value. Any decline that is
not expected to be recovered based on the underlying assets of the investment, is considered other than temporary and an impairment charge is recorded as
a reduction in the carrying value of the investment. During the periods presented there were no impairment charges related to the Company’s investments
in unconsolidated joint ventures.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash and
cash equivalents are maintained at financial institutions and, at times, balances may exceed the limits insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash consists principally of cash held for real estate taxes, construction costs, property maintenance, insurance, minimum occupancy, and
property operating income requirements at specific properties as required by certain loan agreements.
Deferred Costs
External fees and costs paid in the successful negotiation of leases are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective
leases. External fees and costs incurred in connection with obtaining financing are deferred and amortized as a component of interest expense over the term
of the related debt obligation on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method.
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company measures derivative instruments at fair value and records them as assets or liabilities, depending on its rights or obligations under the
applicable derivative contract. Derivatives that are not designated as hedges must be adjusted to fair value through earnings. For a derivative designated and
that qualified as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative is recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive
loss until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative’s change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings.
Although the Company's derivative contracts are subject to master netting arrangements, which serve as credit mitigants to both the Company and its
counterparties under certain situations, the Company does not net its derivative fair values or any existing rights or obligations to cash collateral on the
consolidated balance sheets. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. For the periods presented, all of the Company's
derivatives qualified and were designated as cash flow hedges, and none of its derivatives were deemed ineffective.
67
ACADIA REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Noncontrolling Interests
Noncontrolling interests represent the portion of equity that the Company does not own in those entities it consolidates. The Company identifies its
noncontrolling interests separately within the equity section on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The amounts of consolidated net earnings
attributable to the Company and to the noncontrolling interests are presented separately on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
Noncontrolling interests also include amounts related to common and preferred OP Units issued to unrelated third parties in connection with certain
property acquisitions. In addition, the Company periodically issues common OP Units and LTIPs to certain employees of the Company under its share-
based incentive program. Unit holders generally have the right to redeem their units for Common Shares subject to blackout and other limitations. Common
and restricted OP Units are included in the caption Noncontrolling interest within the equity section on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
Variable Interest Entities
The Company consolidates a VIE in which it is considered the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the entity that has (i) the power to direct the
activities that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses of the VIE or the right to receive benefits
from the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. The Company assesses the accounting treatment and determines whether it is the primary beneficiary of a
VIE at the time it becomes involved with a VIE and continuously reconsiders that conclusion. In determining whether the Company is the primary
beneficiary, it evaluates its control rights as well as economic interests in the entity held either directly or indirectly by the Company. Each entity is
assessed on an individual basis to determine the rights provided to each party and whether those rights are protective or participating. For all VIEs, the
Company reviews such agreements in order to determine which party has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity's
economic performance.
For those entities evaluated under the voting interest model, the Company consolidates the entity if it has a controlling financial interest. The Company has
a controlling financial interest in a voting interest entity (“VOE”) if it owns a majority voting interest in the entity. Investments in entities for which the
Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over but does not have financial or operating control through its voting interest and entities which
are VIEs but where the Company is not the primary beneficiary, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the Company’s
share of the earnings (or losses) of these entities are included in consolidated net income or loss.
Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable
The Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842. Pursuant to ASC 842, the Company has made an accounting policy election to not separate the non-
lease components from its leases, such as common area maintenance, and has accounted for each of its leases as a single lease component. In addition, the
Company has elected to account only for those taxes that it pays on behalf of the tenant as reimbursable costs and will not account for those taxes paid
directly by the tenant. Minimum rents from tenants are recognized using the straight-line method over the non-cancelable lease term of the respective
leases. Lease termination fees are recognized upon the effective termination of a tenant’s lease when the Company has no further obligations under the
lease. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, unbilled rents receivable relating to the straight-lining of rents of $48.1 million and $43.4 million, respectively,
are included in Rents Receivable, net on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Certain of these leases also provide for percentage rents based
upon the level of sales achieved by the tenant. Percentage rent is recognized in the period when the tenants’ sales breakpoint is met. In addition, leases
typically provide for the reimbursement to the Company of real estate taxes, insurance, and other property operating expenses. These reimbursements are
recognized as revenue in the period the related expenses are incurred.
The Company assesses the collectability of its accounts receivable related to tenant revenues under ASC 842. The Company estimates the collectability of
the accounts receivable related to billed rents, straight-line rents, recoveries from tenants, and other revenue taking into consideration the Company's
historical write-off experience, tenant creditworthiness, current economic trends, and remaining lease terms. Rents receivable at December 31, 2022 and
2021 are shown net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $32.1 million and $38.5 million, respectively. Rental income for the years ended December
31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 are reported net of adjustments of $0.4 million, $0.1 million, and $46.4 million, respectively, to allowance for doubtful accounts.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation expense for all equity-classified stock-based compensation awards is based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance
with current accounting guidance for share-based payments. The Company recognizes these compensation costs for only those shares or units expected to
vest on a straight-line or graded-vesting basis, as appropriate, over the requisite service period of the award. The Company includes stock-based
compensation within general and administrative expense on the consolidated statements of operations.
Income Taxes
68
ACADIA REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company has made an election to be taxed, and believes it qualifies, as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the “Code”). To maintain REIT status for Federal income tax purposes, the Company is generally required to distribute at least 90% of its
REIT taxable income to its shareholders as well as comply with certain other income, asset and organizational requirements as defined in the Code.
Accordingly, the Company is generally not subject to Federal corporate income tax to the extent that it distributes 100% of its REIT taxable income each
year.
The Company is permitted to participate in certain activities and still maintain its qualification as a REIT, so long as these activities are conducted in
entities that elect to be treated as taxable subsidiaries under the Code. As such, the Company is subject to Federal and state income taxes on the income
from these activities.
Although it may qualify for REIT status for federal income tax purposes, the Company is subject to state or local income or franchise taxes in certain
jurisdictions in which some of its properties are located. In addition, taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through the Company’s Taxable
REIT Subsidiary (“TRS”) is fully subject to federal, state and local income taxes.
The Company accounts for TRS income taxes under the liability method as required by ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Under the liability method,
deferred income taxes are recognized for the temporary differences between the GAAP basis and tax basis of the TRS income, assets, and liabilities.
In March 2020, Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) temporarily relaxed existing limitations on the use and carryback
of net operating losses incurred by our TRSs. Net operating losses generated in taxable years beginning in 2019, 2020 or 2021 can be carried back to the
preceding 5 years. In addition, TRSs can fully offset their taxable income for taxable years beginning before 2022 using net operating loss carrybacks and
carryforwards and can fully offset their taxable income for taxable years beginning after 2021 using pre-2019 net operating loss carryforwards. Any post-
2018 net operating loss carryforwards can be used to offset up to 80% of taxable income after using pre-2019 net operating loss carryforwards. In 2020, the
Company carried back $3.1 million of net operating losses, resulting in a refund of $1.0 million.
The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent it believes it is more likely than not that these assets will be realized. In 2022 and 2021, the
Company recorded valuation allowances to reduce deferred tax assets when it determined that an uncertainty existed regarding their realization, which
increased the provision for income taxes. In making such determination, the Company considered all available positive and negative evidence, including
forecasts of future taxable income, the reversal of other existing temporary differences, available net operating loss carryforwards, tax planning strategies
and recent results of operations. Several of these considerations require assumptions and significant judgment about the forecasts of future taxable income
and are consistent with the plans and estimates that the Company is utilizing to manage its business. To the extent facts and circumstances change in the
future, further adjustments to the valuation allowances may be required.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2021, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-01 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) which modifies ASC 848, which
was intended to provide relief related to “contracts and transactions that reference LIBOR or a reference rate that is expected to be discontinued as a result
of reference rate reform.” ASU 2021-01 expands the scope of ASC 848 to include all affected derivatives and give reporting entities the ability to apply
certain aspects of the contract modification and hedge accounting expedients to derivative contracts affected by the discounting transition. ASU 2021-01
also adds implementation guidance to clarify which optional expedients in ASC 848 may be applied to derivative instruments that do not reference LIBOR
or a reference rate that is expected to be discontinued, but that are being modified as a result of the discounting transition. The Company has elected the
optional practical expedient under ASU 2020-04 and 2021-01, which allows entities to account for the modification as if the modification was not
substantial. As a result, the implementation of this guidance did not have an effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). The guidance in this update defers the sunset date of Topic 848
from December 31, 2022, to December 31, 2024, after which entities will no longer be permitted to apply the relief in Topic 848. The amendments are
effective for all entities in scope upon issuance of the ASU. The Company plans to transition all variable rate loans currently indexed to LIBOR to SOFR or
another applicable benchmark index based on discussions with its lenders.
Any other recently issued accounting standards or pronouncements not disclosed above have been excluded as they are not relevant to the Company, or
they are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

The Company invested $2.8 million in its 49.99% equity interest and, through a separate lending subsidiary, provided a $64.1 million first mortgage loan and a $30.9 million mezzanine
loan to subsidiaries of the venture (such equity and loans have been eliminated in consolidation). Pursuant to the entity’s operating agreement, the venture partner has a one-time right to
put its 50.01% interest in the entity (the "Williamsburg NCI", which is further described in Note 10) to the Company for fair value

at a future date. Given the preferred rate of return of the Company embedded in its equity interests and the accruing debt senior to the equity, the Company did not attribute any initial
redemption value to the Williamsburg NCI and recognized a bargain purchase gain of $1.2 million, which is included in Realized and unrealized holding (losses) gains on investments and
other in the consolidated statements of operations.
The Henderson Avenue Portfolio comprises 14 operating retail assets, one residential building and two development and redevelopment sites. One of the development sites was sold in
October 2022.
The entity was previously accounted for as an equity method investment until an affiliate of Fund III acquired the venture partner's interest in a foreclosure action. Fund III now indirectly
owns 100% of the entity and consolidates it (Note 4).

million of acquisition costs (including a $1.5 million acquisition fee paid to an affiliate of a joint venture partner). Acquisition costs that were expensed are
included in General and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company
assumed a $36.0 million mortgage with the consolidation of 640 Broadway and during the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company assumed a $31.8
million mortgage with the acquisition of Canton Marketplace (Note 7).
Purchase Price Allocations
The purchase prices for the 2022 Acquisitions and Foreclosure and 2021 Acquisitions were allocated to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities based on

The Company determines the fair value of the individual components of income producing real estate asset acquisitions primarily through calculating the
"as-if vacant" value of a building, using an income approach, which relies significantly upon internally determined assumptions. The Company has
determined that these estimates primarily rely on Level 3 inputs, which are unobservable inputs based on our own assumptions. The most significant
assumptions used in calculating the "as-if vacant" value for acquisition activity during 2022 and 2021, respectively, are as follows:

Annual net rental rate per square foot on acquired buildings
Annual net rental rate per square foot on acquired ground lease

through Fund III obtained the remaining venture partner's interest in an entity that held a property, which was collateral for a note with a
balance of $5.3 million, accrued interest of $4.7 million, less credit loss reserve of $4.6 million (exclusive of default interest and other
amounts due on the loan that have not been recognized), via a foreclosure auction in January 2022. The entity was previously accounted for
as an equity method investment until Fund III acquired the venture partner's interest in a foreclosure auction. Fund III now owns 100% of the
entity and consolidates it (Note 4);
originated a new loan to other Fund II investors of $65.9 million in the third quarter, which is presented in redeemable noncontrolling interest
on the Company's consolidated balance sheets (Note 10);
funded $7.5 million of a $12.8 million construction loan commitment to an unconsolidated venture, which is presented in investments in and
advances to unconsolidated affiliates, net of an allowance for credit loss (Note 4). The loan has a stated interest rate of Prime + 1.00%,
matures on December 28, 2023 and is collateralized by the venture members' interest in an entity that holds the 1238 Wisconsin development
property;
Fund V made a bridge loan to an unconsolidated venture for $52.0 million during the first quarter, which was repaid during the second
quarter. Additionally, Fund V made a bridge loan to an unconsolidated venture for $31.7 million during the third quarter, which is presented
in investments in and advances to unconsolidated affiliates, net of an allowance for credit loss (Note 4). The loan has a stated interest rate of
8.0%, matures on February 6, 2023 and is collateralized by the Shoppes at South Hills property. The bridge loan was refinanced with third-
party mortgage debt in February 2023 (Note 17) ;
received full payment on a $16.0 million Core Portfolio loan during the second quarter, and full payment on a $13.5 million Core Portfolio
loan and partial payment of $5.7 million of accrued interest on a Core Portfolio loan during the third quarter;
extended the maturity date of one Core note receivable of $54.0 million from January 13, 2023 to January 9, 2024; and
decreased its allowance for credit loss by $4.9 million, of which approximately $4.6 million was attributable to the aforementioned Fund III
foreclosure.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company:
•
originated a new Core Portfolio note for $16.0 million with a stated interest rate of 9% and a maturity date of October 20, 2022 collateralized
by a single tenant property in Silver Spring, Maryland on April 20, 2021;

exchanged 21,109 OP Units in settlement of a note receivable in the amount of $0.5 million on July 12, 2021 (Note 10);
originated a new Core Portfolio note for $43.0 million, of which $42.0 million was funded, with three tranches with stated interest rates
ranging from 5% to 12% and a maturity date of September 17, 2024 collateralized by a retail condominium in Soho, New York on September
17, 2021;
extended the maturity date of one Core note receivable of $13.5 million from October 28, 2021 to June 1, 2022; and
recorded an increase in its allowance for credit loss of approximately $4.5 million primarily attributable to the Fund III note that matured in
July 2020.

Default
One Core Portfolio note aggregating $21.6 million including accrued interest (exclusive of default interest and other amounts due on the loan that have not
been recognized) was in default at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. On April 1, 2020, the loan matured and was not repaid. The Company
expects to take appropriate actions to recover the amounts due under the loan and has issued a reservation of rights letter to the borrowers and guarantor,
reserving all of its rights and remedies under the applicable loan documents and otherwise. The Company has determined that the collateral for this loan is
sufficient to cover the loan’s carrying value at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The Company monitors the credit quality of its notes receivable on an ongoing basis and considers indicators of credit quality such as loan payment
activity, the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, the seniority of the Company’s loan in relation to other debt secured by the collateral and the
prospects of the borrower.
Earnings from these notes and mortgages receivable are reported within the Company’s Structured Financing segment (Note 12). Interest receivable is
included in Other assets (Note 5).
The Company’s estimated allowance for credit losses related to its Structured Financing segment has been computed for its amortized cost basis in the
portfolio, including accrued interest (Note 5), factoring historical loss experience in the United States for similar loans, as adjusted for current conditions,
as well as the Company’s expectations related to future economic conditions. Due to the lack of comparability across the Structured Financing portfolio,
each loan was evaluated separately. As a result, there were three non-collateral-dependent loans with a total amortized cost of $112.9 million, inclusive of
accrued interest of $11.9 million, for which an allowance for credit losses has been recorded aggregating $0.9 million at December 31, 2022. For two loans
in this portfolio, aggregating $27.9 million, inclusive of accrued interest of $4.1 million at December 31, 2022, the Company has elected to apply a
practical expedient in accordance with ASC 326 and did not establish an allowance for credit losses because (i) these loans are collateral-dependent loans,
which due to their settlement terms are not expected to be settled in cash but rather by the Company’s possession of the real estate collateral; and (ii) at
December 31, 2022, the Company determined that the estimated fair value of the collateral at the expected realization date for these loans was sufficient to
cover the carrying value of its investments in these notes receivable. Impairment charges may be required if and when such amounts are estimated to be
nonrecoverable upon a realization event, which is generally at the time a loan is repaid, or in the case of foreclosure, when the underlying asset is sold;
however, non-recoverability may also be concluded if it is reasonably certain that all amounts due will not be collected.

At December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company’s mortgages were collateralized by 31 and 37 properties, respectively, and the related tenant leases. Certain
loans are cross-collateralized and contain cross-default provisions. The loan agreements contain customary representations, covenants, and events of
default. Certain loan agreements require the Company to comply with affirmative and negative covenants, including the maintenance of debt service
coverage and leverage ratios. The Operating Partnership has guaranteed up to $50.0 million related to the Fund II City Point mortgage loan. The Company
is not in default on any of its loan agreements at December 31, 2022. A portion of the Company’s variable-rate mortgage debt has been effectively fixed
through certain cash flow hedge transactions (Note 8).
Unsecured Notes Payable
Unsecured notes payable for which total availability was $41.8 million and $16.3 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, are comprised of

8. Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of an asset is defined as the exit price, which is the amount that would either be received when an asset is sold or paid to transfer a liability in
an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy
85
ACADIA REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
based on the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers are: Level 1, for which quoted market prices for identical instruments are available in active
markets, such as money market funds, equity securities, and U.S. Treasury securities; Level 2, for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included
within Level 1 that are observable for the instrument, such as certain derivative instruments including interest rate caps and interest rate swaps; and Level 3,
for financial instruments or other assets/liabilities that do not fall into Level 1 or Level 2 and for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring
the Company to develop its own assumptions.
Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The methods and assumptions described below were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument. For significant Level 3 items, the
Company has also provided the unobservable inputs.
Money Market Funds — The Company has money market funds, which at times have zero balances and are included in Cash and cash equivalents in the
consolidated balance sheets, and are comprised of government securities and/or U.S. Treasury bills. These funds were classified as Level 1 as the Company
used quoted prices from active markets to determine their fair values.
Equity Investments – Albertsons became publicly traded during 2020 (Note 4). Upon Albertsons’ IPO, the Company’s Investment in Albertsons has a
readily determinable market value (traded on an exchange) and is being accounted for as a Level 1 investment.
Derivative Assets — The Company has derivative assets, which are included in Other assets, net on the consolidated balance sheets, and comprised of
interest rate swaps and caps. The derivative instruments were measured at fair value using readily observable market inputs, such as quotations on interest
rates, and were classified as Level 2 as these instruments are custom, over-the-counter contracts with various bank counterparties that are not traded in an
active market. See “Derivative Financial Instruments,” below.
Derivative Liabilities — The Company has derivative liabilities, which are included in Accounts payable and other liabilities on the consolidated balance
sheets and are comprised of interest rate swaps. These derivative instruments were measured at fair value using readily observable market inputs, such as
quotations on interest rates, and were classified as Level 2 because they are custom, over-the-counter contracts with various bank counterparties that are not
traded in an active market. See “Derivative Financial Instruments,” below.
The Company did not have any transfers into or out of Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 measurements during the year ended December 31, 2022 or 2021.
The following table presents the Company’s fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands):
Assets
Money market funds
Derivative financial instruments
Investment in Albertsons (Note 4)
Liabilities

In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair
value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its
entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers
factors specific to the asset or liability.

Includes one swap with an aggregate fair value of $0.8 million at December 31, 2022, with a notional value of $50.0 million which was acquired during December 2022 and is not

All of the Company’s derivative instruments have been designated as cash flow hedges and hedge the future cash outflows on variable-rate debt (Note 7). It
is estimated that approximately $26.4 million included in Accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest
expense within the next twelve months. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, no derivatives were designated as fair value hedges or hedges of net
investments in foreign operations. Additionally, the Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and currently does not have any
derivatives that are not designated hedges.
During the first quarter of 2021, the Company terminated two interest rate swaps with forward effective dates with an aggregate notional value of $100.0
million (Note 7) for cash proceeds of $3.4 million. As the hedged forecasted transaction is still expected, amounts deferred in Accumulated other
comprehensive loss has been amortized into earnings as a reduction of interest expense over the original term of the swaps beginning in 2022.

ACADIA REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company manages economic risks,
including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its debt funding and, from time to time,
through the use of derivative financial instruments. The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that result in the receipt
or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the values of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial
instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or
expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s investments and borrowings.
The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to the swaps if the derivative position has a positive balance.
The Company believes it mitigates its credit risk by entering into swaps with major financial institutions. The Company continually monitors and actively
manages interest costs on its variable-rate debt portfolio and may enter into additional interest rate swap positions or other derivative interest rate
instruments based on market conditions.
Credit Risk-Related Contingent Features
The Company has agreements with each of its swap counterparties that contain a provision whereby if the Company defaults on certain of its unsecured
indebtedness, the Company could also be declared in default on its swaps, resulting in an acceleration of payment under the swaps.
Other Financial Instruments
The Company’s other financial instruments had the following carrying values and fair values as of the dates shown (dollars in thousands, inclusive of
amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests where applicable):

The Company determined the estimated fair value of these financial instruments using a discounted cash flow model with rates that take into account the credit of the borrower or
tenant, where applicable, and interest rate risk. The Company also considered the value of the underlying collateral, taking into account the quality of the collateral, the credit quality
of the borrower, the time until maturity and the current market interest rate environment. Amounts exclude discounts and loan costs. The estimated market rates are between 5.27% to
13.92% for the Company's notes receivable and City Point Loan, and 6.27% to 10.82% for the Company's mortgage and other notes payable, depending on the attributes of the
specific loans.
Represents the Operating Partnership’s cost-method investment in Fifth Wall (Note 4).
The Company determined the estimated fair value of the unsecured notes payable and unsecured line of credit using quoted market prices in an open market with limited trading
volume where available. In cases where there was no trading volume, the Company determined the estimated fair value using a discounted cash flow model using a rate that reflects
the average yield of similar market participants.

9. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is involved in various matters of litigation arising out of, or incidental to, its business. While the Company is unable to predict with certainty
the outcome of any particular matter, management does not expect, when such litigation is resolved, that the Company’s resulting exposure to loss
contingencies, if any, will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Preferred OP Units
There were no issuances of Preferred OP Units during the year ended December 31, 2022 or 2021.
In 1999 the Operating Partnership issued 1,580 Series A Preferred OP Units in connection with the acquisition of a property, which have a stated value of
$1,000 per unit, and are entitled to a preferred quarterly distribution of the greater of (i) $22.50 (9.00% annually) per Series A Preferred OP Unit or (ii) the
quarterly distribution attributable to a Series A Preferred OP Unit if such unit was converted into a Common OP Unit. Through December 31, 2022, 1,392
Series A Preferred OP Units were converted into 185,600 Common OP Units and then into Common Shares. The 188 remaining Series A Preferred OP
Units are currently convertible into Common OP Units based on the stated value divided by $7.50. Either the Company or the holders can currently call for
the conversion of the Series A Preferred OP Units at the lesser of $7.50 or the market price of the Common Shares as of the conversion date.
During 2016, the Operating Partnership issued 442,478 Common OP Units and 141,593 Series C Preferred OP Units to a third party to acquire Gotham
Plaza (Note 4). The Series C Preferred OP Units have a value of $100.00 per unit and are entitled to a preferred quarterly distribution of $0.9375 per unit
and are convertible into Common OP Units at a rate based on the share price at the time of conversion. If the share price is below $28.80 on the conversion
date, each Series C Preferred OP Unit will be convertible into 3.4722 Common OP Units. If the share price is between $28.80 and $35.20 on the conversion
date, each Series C Preferred OP Unit will be convertible into a number of Common OP Units equal to $100.00 divided by the closing share price. If the
share price is above $35.20 on the conversion date, each Series C Preferred OP Unit will be convertible into 2.8409 Common OP Units. The Series C
Preferred OP Units have a mandatory conversion date of December 31, 2025, at which time all units that have not been converted will automatically be
converted into Common OP Units based on the same calculations. Through December 31, 2022, 15,209 Series C Preferred OP Units were converted into
52,613 Common OP Units and then into Common Shares.
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
Williamsburg Portfolio
In connection with the Williamsburg Portfolio acquisition in February 2022 (Note 2), the Company evaluated the Williamsburg Noncontrolling Interest
("NCI"), which represents the venture partner's one-time right to put its 50.01% interest in the property to the Company for redemption at fair value at a
future date. As it was unlikely as of the acquisition date that the venture partner would receive any consideration on redemption due to the Company’s
preferential returns, the initial fair value of the Williamsburg NCI was determined to be zero. The Company is required to periodically evaluate the NCI
and adjust it to redemption value. At December 31, 2022, the Company determined that the fair value of the Williamsburg NCI was zero.
City Point Loan
In August 2022, the Company provided a loan, through a separate lending subsidiary, to other Fund II investors in City Point, through a separate borrower
subsidiary, to fund the investors' pro rata contribution necessary to complete the refinancing of the City Point debt (Note 7), of which $65.9 million was
funded at closing ("City Point Loan"). The City Point Loan has a five-year term which matures on August 1, 2027 and is collateralized by the investors'
equity in City Point ("City Point NCI"). Because the City Point Loan was granted in return for a capital contribution from the investors, and is
collateralized by the City Point NCI, the City Point Loan, net of a $0.5 million allowance for credit loss, and accrued interest are presented as a reduction of
the City Point NCI balance. The borrower subsidiary of the City Point Loan was determined to be a variable interest entity ("VIE") for which the Company
is not the primary beneficiary. The maximum loss in the VIE is limited to the amount of the City Point Loan and any accrued interest.
In connection with the City Point Loan, each partner has a one-time right to put its City Point NCI to the Company for redemption in exchange for the
settlement of its proportion of the City Point Loan amount plus either (i) a fixed cash amount or (ii) a cash amount equal to the value of fixed number of
Common Shares of the Company on the trading day prior to the election, at a future point in time beginning in August 2023 ("redemption value"). As a
result of granting these redemption rights, the City Point NCI, net of the City Point Loan, has been reclassified and presented as redeemable noncontrolling
interests on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Given the carrying value of the City Point NCI at the time of the transaction exceeded the
maximum redemption value, the Company did not recognize any initial adjustment to accrete the City Point NCI to the redemption value. The Company is
required to periodically evaluate the maximum redemption amount of the NCI interest and recognize an increase in the carrying value of the City Point NCI
if the redemption value exceeds the then current carrying value. At December 31, 2022, the Company determined that the carrying value exceeded the
maximum redemption value and no adjustment was required.

11. Leases
Operating Leases
As Lessor
The Company is engaged in the operation of shopping centers and other retail properties that are either owned or, with respect to certain shopping centers,
operated under long-term ground leases (see below) that expire at various dates through June 20, 2066, with renewal options. Space in the shopping centers
is leased to tenants pursuant to agreements that provide for terms ranging generally from one month to sixty years and generally provide for additional rents
based on certain operating expenses as well as tenants’ sales volumes. During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company earned $59.3
million and $58.3 million, respectively, in variable lease revenues, primarily for real estate taxes and common area maintenance charges, which are
included in rental income in the consolidated statements of operations.
Reserve Analysis
The activity for the reserves related to billed rents and straight-line rents (including those under specific operating leases where the collection of rents is
assessed not to be probable) is as follows:

Tenant Settlement
On September 24, 2021, the Company entered into a conditional settlement agreement with its former tenant ("Former Tenant") and lease guarantor at one
of its Core properties for the payment by Former Tenant and guarantor of a minimum of $5.4 million in accordance with a payment schedule set forth and
subject to the terms in the conditional settlement agreement. The payments relate to judgments entered in favor of the Company totaling $8.6 million, plus
interest, for the Former Tenant’s default under the lease and its subsequent termination by the Company. Given the inherent uncertainties involving
collectability, the Company has deferred any amounts not received in its consolidated financial statements and such amounts will be recognized when
realized. Through December 31, 2022 the Company had received a total of $2.7 million, of which $2.4 million was recognized as Other revenues on the
statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2022.
As Lessee
During the year ended December 31, 2022, there were no leasing transactions where the Company acted as lessee.

Financing segment consists of earnings and expenses related to notes and mortgages receivable which are held within the Core Portfolio or the Funds (Note
3). Fees earned by the Company as the general partner or managing member of the Funds are eliminated in the Company’s consolidated financial
statements and are not presented in the Company’s segments.

13. Share Incentive and Other Compensation
Share Incentive Plan
On March 23, 2020, the Board approved the 2020 Share Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”), which increased the aggregate number of Common Shares
authorized for issuance by 2,650,000 shares. The 2020 Plan authorizes the Company to issue options, Restricted Shares, LTIP Units and other securities
(collectively “Awards”) to, among others, the Company’s officers, trustees, and employees. At December 31, 2022 a total of 1,540,116 shares remained
available to be issued under the 2020 Plan.
Restricted Shares and LTIP Units
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company issued 603,267 LTIP Units and 15,878 restricted share units (“Restricted Share Units”) to
employees of the Company pursuant to the 2020 Plan. Certain of these equity awards were granted in performance-based Restricted Share Units or LTIP
Units with market conditions as described below (“2021 Performance Shares”). These awards were measured at their fair value on the grant date,
incorporating the following factors:
•
A portion of these annual equity awards is granted in performance-based Restricted Share Units or LTIP Units that may be earned based on the
Company’s attainment of specified relative total shareholder returns (“Relative TSR”) hurdles.

ACADIA REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
•
•
•
In the event the Relative TSR percentile falls between the 25th percentile and the 50th percentile, the Relative TSR vesting percentage is
determined using a straight-line linear interpolation between 50% and 100% and in the event that the Relative TSR percentile falls between the
50th percentile and 75th percentile, the Relative TSR vesting percentage is determined using a straight-line linear interpolation between 100%
and 200%.
Two-thirds (2/3) of the performance-based LTIP Units will vest based on the Company’s total shareholder return (“TSR”) for the three -year
forward-looking performance period relative to the constituents of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT")
Shopping Center Property Subsector and one-third (1/3) on the Company’s TSR for the three-year forward-looking performance period as
compared to the constituents of the NAREIT Retail Property Sector (both on a non-weighted basis).
If the Company’s performance fails to achieve the aforementioned hurdles at the culmination of the three-year performance period, all
performance-based shares will be forfeited. Any earned performance-based shares vest 60% at the end of the performance period, with the
remaining 40% of shares vesting ratably over the next two years.
For valuation of the 2022 and 2021 Performance Shares, a Monte Carlo simulation was used to estimate the fair values based on probability of satisfying
the market conditions and the projected share prices at the time of payments, discounted to the valuation dates over the three-year performance periods. The
assumptions include volatility (49.0% and 48.0%) and risk-free interest rates of (1.7% and 0.2%) for 2022 and 2021, respectively. The total value of the
2022 and 2021 Performance Shares will be expensed over the vesting period regardless of the Company’s performance.
The total value of the above Restricted Share Units and LTIP Units as of the grant date was $13.1 million. Total long-term incentive compensation
expense, including the expense related to the 2020 Plan, was $7.4 million, $9.4 million, and $8.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and
2020, respectively and is recorded in General and Administrative on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
In addition, members of the Board have been issued shares and units under the 2020 Plan. During 2022, the Company issued 36,471 LTIP Units and 29,935
Restricted Shares to Trustees of the Company in connection with Trustee fees. A portion of LTIP Units and Restricted Shares vest over three years with
33% vesting May 9, 2023 and the remaining amount vesting ratably on May 9, 2024 and May 9, 2025. The remaining awards vest on May 9, 2023. The
Restricted Shares do not carry voting rights or other rights of Common Shares until vesting and may not be transferred, assigned, or pledged until the
recipients have a vested non-forfeitable right to such shares. Dividends are not paid currently on unvested Restricted Shares but are paid cumulatively from
the issuance date through the applicable vesting date of such Restricted Shares. Total trustee fee expense, including the expense related to the 2020 Plan,
was $1.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, $1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 and $1.4 million for 2020, respectively, and is
recorded in General and Administrative on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
In 2009, the Company adopted the Long-Term Investment Alignment Program (the “Program”) pursuant to which the Company may grant awards to
employees, entitling them to receive up to 25% of any potential future payments of Promote to the Operating Partnership from Funds III, IV and V. As of
December 31, 2022, the Company has granted such awards to employees representing 25% of the potential Promote payments from Fund III to the
Operating Partnership and 23.1% of the potential Promote payments from Fund IV to the Operating Partnership and 10.7% of the potential Promote
payments from Fund V to the Operating Partnership. Payments to senior executives under the Program require further Board approval at the time any
potential payments are due pursuant to these grants. Compensation relating to these awards will be recognized in each reporting period in which Board
approval is granted.
As payments to other employees are not subject to further Board approval, compensation relating to these awards will be recorded based on the estimated
fair value at each reporting period in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. The awards in connection with Fund IV were
determined to have no intrinsic value as of December 31, 2022.
The Company recognized $0.4 million and $0.1 million compensation expense for Funds III and V, respectively for the year ended December 31, 2022 in
connection with the resignation of an employee. No compensation expense was recognized for the years ended 2021, and 2020, related to the Program in
connection with Fund III, Fund IV, or Fund V.

$19.51, respectively. As of December 31, 2022, there was $15.7 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share-based
compensation arrangements granted under the 2020 Plan. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years. The total fair
value of Restricted Shares that vested for each of the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, was $0.8 million. The total fair value of LTIP Units that
vested (LTIP units vest primarily in the first quarter) during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, was $7.1 million and $7.5 million, respectively.
Other Plans
On a combined basis, the Company incurred a total of $0.4 million, $0.4 million, and $0.3 million of compensation expense related to the following
employee benefit plans for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively:
Employee Share Purchase Plan
The Acadia Realty Trust Employee Share Purchase Plan (the “Purchase Plan”) allows eligible employees of the Company to purchase Common Shares
through payroll deductions. The Purchase Plan provides for employees to purchase Common Shares on a quarterly basis at a 15% discount to the closing
price of the Company’s Common Shares on either the first day or the last day of the quarter, whichever is lower. A participant may not purchase more than
$25,000 in Common Shares per year. Compensation expense will be recognized by the Company to the extent of the above discount to the closing price of
the Common Shares with respect to the applicable quarter. On March 23, 2021, the Board adopted, which was subsequently approved by the Company’s
shareholders at the 2021 annual meeting of shareholders, the Acadia Realty Trust 2021 Employee Share Purchase Plan which allows for a maximum
aggregate issuance of 200,000 Common Shares. A total of 9,747 and 7,721 Common Shares were purchased by employees under the Purchase Plan for the
years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Deferred Share Plan
The Company maintains a Trustee Deferral and Distribution Election program, under which the participating Trustees earn deferred compensation.
Employee 401(k) Plan
The Company maintains a 401(k) plan for employees under which the Company currently matches 50% of a plan participant’s contribution up to 6% of the
employee’s annual salary. A plan participant may contribute up to a maximum of 15% of their compensation, up to $20,500, for the year ended December
31, 2022.

14. Federal Income Taxes
The Company has elected to qualify as a REIT in accordance with Sections 856 through 860 of the Code and intends at all times to qualify as a REIT under
the Code. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it currently
distribute at least 90% of its annual REIT taxable income to its shareholders. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to corporate Federal
income tax, provided that distributions to its shareholders equal at least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined under the Code. As the Company
distributed sufficient taxable income for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, no U.S. Federal income or excise taxes were incurred. If the
Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to Federal income taxes at the regular corporate rates (including any applicable
alternative minimum tax) and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for the four subsequent taxable years. Even though the Company qualifies for taxation
as a REIT, the Company is subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property and Federal income and excise taxes on any undistributed
taxable income. In addition, taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through the Company’s TRS’s is subject to Federal, state and local income
taxes. No more than 20% of the value of our total assets may consist of the securities of one or more TRS.
In the normal course of business, the Company or one or more of its subsidiaries is subject to examination by Federal, state and local jurisdictions, in which
it operates, where applicable. The Company expects to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, as income tax expense. For
the three years ended December 31, 2022, the Company recognized no material adjustments regarding its tax accounting treatment for uncertain tax
provisions. As of December 31, 2022, the tax years that remain subject to examination by the major tax jurisdictions under applicable statutes of limitations
are generally the year 2019 and forward.

As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, the Company’s deferred tax assets were $0.0 and $0.0 million net of applicable reserves of $4.3 million and $3.7
million, respectively and were comprised of capital loss carryovers of $0.1 and $0.1 million and net operating loss carryovers of $4.2 million and $3.6
million, respectively.
Under GAAP a reduction of the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance is required, if, based on the evidence available, it is more
likely than not (a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The valuation allowance should
be sufficient to reduce the deferred tax asset to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021, and
2020, the Company determined that the realization of its deferred tax assets was not likely and as such, the Company recorded a valuation allowance
against its deferred tax assets of $0.7 million, $1.1 million, and $0.9 million, respectively.

15. Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic earnings (loss) per Common Share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Common Shareholders by the weighted average
Common Shares outstanding (Note 10). During the periods presented, the Company had unvested LTIP Units which provide for non-forfeitable rights to
dividend equivalent payments. Accordingly, these unvested LTIP Units are considered participating securities and are included in the computation of basic
earnings per Common Share pursuant to the two-class method.
Diluted earnings per Common Share reflects the potential dilution of the conversion of obligations and the assumed exercises of securities including the
effects of Restricted Share Units issued under the Company’s Share Incentive Plans (Note 13). The effect of such shares is excluded from the calculation of
earnings per share when anti-dilutive as indicated in the table below.
The effect of the conversion of Common OP Units is not reflected in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share, as they are exchangeable for
Common Shares on a one-for-one basis. The income allocable to such units is allocated on this same basis and reflected as noncontrolling interests in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements. As such, the assumed conversion of these units would have no net impact on the determination of diluted
earnings per share.

16. Variable Interest Entities
Pursuant to GAAP consolidation guidance, the Company consolidates certain VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Operating
Partnership is considered a VIE in which the Company is the primary beneficiary because the limited partners do not have substantive kick-out or
participating rights. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Operating Partnership held interests in the Funds and two consolidated entities
owning properties that were determined to be VIEs in which the Company is the primary beneficiary as it has (i) the power to direct the activities of the
entity that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance, and (ii) the obligation to absorb the entity's losses or receive benefits from the
entity that could potentially be significant to the entity.
The majority of the operations of these VIEs are funded with fees earned from investment opportunities or cash flows generated from the properties. The
Company has not provided financial support to any of these VIEs that it was not previously contractually required to provide, which consists primarily of
funding any capital commitments and capital expenditures, which are deemed necessary to continue to operate the entity and any operating cash shortfalls
the entity may experience.
Since the Company conducts its business through and substantially all of its interests are held by the Operating Partnership, the assets and liabilities on the
consolidated balance sheets represent the assets and liabilities of the Operating Partnership. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the
consolidated balance sheets include the following assets and liabilities of the consolidated VIEs of the Operating Partnership:

million, respectively, related to third-party mortgages that are collateralized by the real estate assets of City Point, a Fund II property, and 27 East 61st Street, 801 Madison Avenue,
and 1035 Third Avenue, Fund IV properties, of which $72.5 million is guaranteed by the Operating Partnership (Note 7). The remaining VIE assets are generally encumbered by
third-party non-recourse mortgage debt and are collateral under the respective mortgages and are therefore restricted and can only be used to settle the corresponding liabilities of the
VIE. The remaining VIE assets may only be used to settle obligations of these consolidated VIEs and the remaining VIE liabilities are only the obligations of these consolidated VIEs
and they do not have recourse to the Operating Partnership or the Company.

The Company also holds variable interest in certain VIEs which are not consolidated as it is determined that the Company is not the primary beneficiary
(Note 4). The Company's involvement with such entities is in the form of direct and indirect equity interests and fee arrangements. The maximum exposure
to loss is limited to the amount of the Company's equity investment in these VIEs, except with regard to the Company's remaining $5.3 million construction
commitment related to its investment in 1238 Wisconsin. The Company's aggregate investment in the unconsolidated VIEs assets was $41.5 million and
$32.2 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company's aggregate investment in unconsolidated VIE liabilities was $49.2 million and
$41.9 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

share special dividend (the “Special Dividend”), originally scheduled to be paid November 7, 2022. Albertsons further announced that the temporary
restraining order preventing the payment of the Special Divided was lifted as a result of the decision. Albertsons paid the Special Dividend on January 20,
2023 to record holders as of October 24, 2022. On January 20, 2023 the Company received its share of the Special Dividend of $11.3 million which will be
recognized in January 2023.
