We develop, acquire and operate multi-tenant business distribution facilities for customers who are location sensitive. Our properties are designed for users primarily in the 15,000 to 50,000 square foot range and are clustered around major transportation features in supply constrained submarkets in the traditionally high growth major Sunbelt metropolitan areas. TEXT-EGAR17-8p to Broadridge R1.indd 2 3/9/18 1:00 PM Shiloh 400 Business Center, Atlanta, GAPage 3 San Francisco Fresno Las Vegas Denver Santa Barbara Los Angeles San Diego Phoenix Property Locations Charlotte Atlanta Tucson El Paso Dallas Jackson San Antonio Austin New Orleans Houston Jacksonville Orlando Tampa Ft. Myers Broward/ Palm Beach Properties Corporate Headquarters Regional Offices This continues to be a great time to be an investor in industrial real estate in the Sunbelt. Property fundamentals are good in our markets, and we see no reason this should change in the near term. In 2017, we grew all aspects of our business – funds from operations, same property operating results, new development, and acquisitions. EastGroup’s customer base is large and diverse which we believe increases the stability of our operations. At year-end, we had approximately 1,500 customers with an average size of 25,000 square feet and a weighted average lease term of 5.8 years. It is also important to note that EastGroup’s customers, whether national or local, primarily distribute to the metropolitan area in which their space is located rather than to a much larger region or to the entire country. This means that the economic vibrancy and growth of these metro areas is a major determinant of our customers’ success and our results. This is the reason we are investing in the fast growing major Sunbelt markets. E-commerce and the changing retail model are new demand drivers we see continuing and accelerating. Omnichannel retailing whereby retailers rely on fewer stores within major markets and rely more heavily on nearby industrial buildings for inventory and e-commerce shipments is driving demand. Some of the various formats we’ve leased to include online only retailers who have no brick and mortar presence, but merely industrial space and a website; retailers using our buildings as back of house with numerous daily pickups; and online pharmacy fulfillment to simply name a few. A more recent trend we are watching closely is the maturation of the e-commerce delivery model. As e-commerce delivery times shrink and thus, become more critical to their business model, the big box, edge of town fulfillment centers require accompanying in-fill site business distribution centers. Simply put, the traffic congestion within major markets is necessitating close in, smaller distribution space to meet accelerated delivery times. It is within this niche that EastGroup is uniquely well positioned among our peers. The majority of our institutional industrial ownership peers have developed large, big box (250,000 square feet and above), less in-fill projects. Whereas, our typical building is 80,000 –130,000 square feet in in-fill locations near transportation hubs, making them ideally suited for the prospective new and growing demand source. At 97% leased at year-end, we also have the luxury of patience as the supply chain evolution continues.

This represented the highest FFO per share in EastGroup’s history, and the seventh year in a row of growth in FFO per share as compared to the previous year’s results. Portfolio leasing and occupancy were 97.0% and 96.4% at year-end, respectively. We experienced a 16.8% increase in rents for leases (both new and renewal) executed in 2017 with straight lining (average rent over the life of the lease) and a 6.6% increase without (sometimes referred to as cash rent). Both of these figures represent increases over 2016 results continuing a seven year positive trend. 2017 Accomplishments n Paid 152nd Consecutive Quarterly Cash Dividend with a 3.2% Mid-Year Increase n 25th Consecutive Year of Dividends with 22 Years of Increases and No Reductions n Strong and Flexible Balance Sheet at December 31, 2017 with Debt to Total Market Capitalization of 27% and Interest and Fixed Charge Coverage Ratios of 5.2x for 2017 n Began Development of 12 Properties with 1.3 Million Square Feet and Projected Total Investment of $109 Million n Acquired Properties Totaling 840,000 Square Feet and 90 Acres of Land for $82 Million n Funds from Operations of $145 Million or $4.26 per Share, the Highest in EastGroup’s History i X T , o n o t n A n a S , k r a P s s e n i s u B e g d R o m a A i l Financial Highlights ($ in thousands, except per share data) Operations (for year ended December 31) Revenues ......................................................................................................................................... $ Net income attributable to common stockholders ....................................................... $ Funds from operations (FFO) attributable to common stockholders .................... $ Property Portfolio (at year-end) Real estate properties, at cost ................................................................................................ $ Total assets ...................................................................................................................................... $ Total debt ......................................................................................................................................... $ Stockholders’ equity ................................................................................................................... $ Square feet of real estate properties ....................................................................................

For the year, our interest and fixed charge coverage ratios were both 5.2 times, our seventh year in a row of improvement over the previous year. In May, Moody’s Investors Service affirmed EastGroup’s issuer rating of Baa2 with a stable outlook. We primarily use our lines of credit to fund our development program and property acquisitions. As market conditions permit, we issue equity and/or longer term debt to replace the short term bank borrowings. Approximately six years ago, we began the switch from traditional insurance company first mortgage secured debt to unsecured term loans with banks and the private placement of bonds. Both of these types of debt have interest only payments until maturity, and the rates are fixed for the life of the debt. We plan to primarily obtain unsecured fixed rate debt in the future as market conditions permit. One of the appealing factors of the unsecured fixed rate debt is the greater asset level flexibility it allows after closing. In addition to raising capital via the debt markets, we were active within the continuous equity sales market. For the year, we issued 1,370,500 shares at an average price per share of $80.71 providing gross proceeds to the Company of $111 million. In summary, we remain committed to maintaining a healthy balance sheet and to the value creation our development program produces. The steps we made during the year improved our balance sheet further enabling us to meet both goals. “. . . our seventh year in a row of improvement over the previous year.” TEXT-EGAR17-8p to Broadridge R2.indd 5 3/19/18 9:12 AM Operations (for year ended December 31) Revenues ......................................................................................................................................... $ Net income attributable to common stockholders ....................................................... $ Funds from operations (FFO) attributable to common stockholders .................... $ 274,150 83,183 145,102 253,047 95,509 131,184 235,008 47,866 118,169 Property Portfolio (at year-end) Real estate properties, at cost ................................................................................................ $ Total assets ...................................................................................................................................... $ Total debt ......................................................................................................................................... $ Stockholders’ equity ................................................................................................................... $ Square feet of real estate properties .................................................................................... 2,577,473 2,406,981 2,219,448 1,953,221 1,825,764 1,661,904 1,108,282 1,101,333 1,027,909 749,472 637,661 554,862 37,338,000 34,951,000 34,845,000 2017 2016 2015 Common Share Data (for year ended December 31, except as indicated below) Net income attributable to common stockholders per diluted share ................... $ FFO attributable to common stockholders per diluted share .................................. $ Dividends per share .................................................................................................................... $ Shares outstanding (in thousands at year-end) ............................................................................

We have added over 17 million square feet of quality, state-of-the-art assets. As a result, we have built roughly 45% of our current portfolio through our development efforts. Our early development efforts consisted of just one or two building projects. As EastGroup grew and the program successfully evolved, we began to develop parks with the potential for multiple buildings where we create and control a uniform high quality environment. This also allows us the flexibility to better serve our customers by being able to meet their changing space needs over time. EastGroup is an “in-fill” site developer. We are comfortable initiating speculative development in submarkets where we have experience and an existing successful presence. These development submarkets generally are supply constrained due to limited land for new industrial development or have cost or zoning barriers to entry. In addition, the vast majority of our new developments are subsequent phases of existing multi- building industrial parks; therefore, we view the risks materially lower versus traditional greenfield developments. Further reducing our risk is our approach to not bank land on our balance sheet. In other words, we actively work to minimize the time between closing and ground breaking. Within our business park phase developments, we typically start construction as leasing within the park dictates. For example, if we have more prospects than space, we have optimism about the next building as opposed to relying on a consultant’s market study. Due to the strong industrial property fundamentals and our own leasing success, we began construction on 12 projects containing 1.3 million square feet with projected total costs of $109 million in 2017. Those 12 projects are in 7 different cities. During the year, we transferred 12 properties with 2.2 million square feet into the portfolio which were 94.8% leased as of December 31. An important element of a successful development program is well located industrial land acquired at the right price. In 2017, we purchased 88 acres for new development for a combined investment of $12.2 million. These parcels are located in Austin, Atlanta, Charlotte and San Antonio. In addition to developable land, in fourth quarter we acquired a newly developed property, Gwinnett Progress Center, in Atlanta for $29.3 million. The property includes four recently completed distribution buildings totaling 392,000 square feet and an additional 10.5 acres for future development of an 85,000 square foot building. What attracted us was the ability to acquire well located, state of the art properties yet achieve above market returns by assuming the remaining leasing risk. At closing the property was 17% leased. We believe our development program will continue as a major creator of shareholder value. We have the right land, permitted buildings, available capital and an experienced and proven development team. We expect to continue our development momentum in 2018 to be slightly ahead of prior year’s pace. As always, however, it will be set by our own leasing activity as opposed to set targets or simply high level market research.

The process allows us to continually upgrade the quality, location and growth potential of our assets. Our 2017 sales were primarily targeted at exiting older assets, managing our portfolio allocation to Houston and land parcels which were too small for us to develop or where we did not have active development plans. During the year, EastGroup closed 4 sales transactions, consisting of 514,000 square feet of operating properties and 19 acres of land, generating proceeds of $41.8 million. Of the operating properties sold, just under 90% of the proceeds were from Houston asset sales. In February, we entered the Atlanta market with the acquisition of Shiloh 400 Business Center, a three-building 238,000 square foot business distribution complex for $20.3 million. Shiloh was 100% leased at acquisition. Later in April, we closed on Broadmoor Commerce Park in Atlanta for $6.4 million. The Broadmoor acquisition included the 100% leased, 84,000 square foot building and 5.3 acres of land for the future development of a 111,000 square foot building. Finally in May, we acquired Southpark Corporate Center 5-7 in Austin for $10.3 million. These three buildings total 99,000 square feet, were 100% leased at acquisition and are located adjacent to EastGroup’s Southpark Corporate Center 3 and 4 buildings in Austin’s southeast/airport submarket.

The December dividend was our 152nd consecutive quarterly cash distribution to shareholders. We have now increased or maintained our dividend for 25 consecutive years and raised it 22 years (including the last six) over that period. Reflecting EastGroup’s improving operating results, our 2017 FFO dividend payout ratio stood at only 59% in spite of the increase. THE FUTURE In 2017, we achieved the highest FFO per share in EastGroup’s history. We accomplished this with high occupancy levels, rent growth, and successfully bringing new development online. I’m especially proud as this was accomplished during a time of transition within our senior team and while improving our balance sheet. Our commitment is to maintain the long term results, broad strategy and culture you’ve come to expect but continue to evolve as our markets dictate and allow. We have a strong and experienced senior management team with a cycle proven track record, and we believe that we will continue this positive momentum through 2018 and future years. leased upon acquisition MARSHALL LOEB, CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER 10K TEXT-EGAR17-8p to Broadridge R1.indd 8 3/9/18 1:01 PM Parc North, Dallas, TX37% value add Oak Creek Distribution Center, Tampa, FLUNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION WASHINGTON, D.C. 20549 FORM 10-K ANNUAL REPORT PURSUANT TO SECTION 13 OR 15(d) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2017 COMMISSION FILE NUMBER 1-07094 EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC.

The Company has elected to be taxed and intends to continue to qualify as a REIT under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code), as amended. Available Information The Company maintains a website at eastgroup.net. The Company posts its annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as soon as reasonably practicable after it electronically files or furnishes such materials to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In addition, the Company's website includes items related to corporate governance matters, including, among other things, the Company's corporate governance guidelines, charters of various committees of the Board of Directors, and the Company's code of business conduct and ethics applicable to all employees, officers and directors. The Company intends to disclose on its website any amendment to, or waiver of, any provision of this code of business conduct and ethics applicable to the Company's directors and executive officers that would otherwise be required to be disclosed under the rules of the SEC or the New York Stock Exchange. Copies of these reports and corporate governance documents may be obtained, free of charge, from the Company's website. Any shareholder also may obtain copies of these documents, free of charge, by sending a request in writing to: Investor Relations, EastGroup Properties, Inc., 400 W. Parkway Place, Suite 100, Ridgeland, MS 39157. Administration EastGroup maintains its principal executive office and headquarters in Ridgeland, Mississippi. The Company also has regional offices in Orlando, Dallas and Los Angeles and asset management offices in Charlotte, Houston and Phoenix. EastGroup has property management offices in Jacksonville, Tampa, Ft. Lauderdale and San Antonio. Offices at these locations allow the Company to provide property management services to all of its Florida, Texas (except Austin and El Paso), Arizona, Mississippi and North Carolina properties, which together account for 78% of the Company’s total portfolio on a square foot basis. In addition, the Company currently provides property administration (accounting of operations) for its entire portfolio. The regional offices in Florida, Texas and California provide oversight of the Company's development program. As of February 13, 2018, EastGroup had 69 full-time employees and 2 part-time employees. Operations EastGroup's goal is to maximize shareholder value by being a leading provider in its markets of functional, flexible and quality business distribution space for location sensitive customers primarily in the 15,000 to 50,000 square foot range. The Company develops, acquires and operates distribution facilities, the majority of which are clustered around major transportation features in supply-constrained submarkets in major Sunbelt regions. The Company's core markets are in the states of Florida, Texas, Arizona, California and North Carolina. Over 99% of the Company’s revenue consists of rental income from real estate properties. During 2017, EastGroup increased its holdings in real estate properties through its acquisition and development programs. The Company purchased 840,000 square feet of properties and 90 acres of land for a total of $82 million. Also during 2017, the Company began construction of 12 development projects containing 1.3 million square feet and transferred 12 projects, which contain 2.2 million square feet and had costs of $160.1 million at the date of transfer, from its development program to real estate properties. Typically, the Company initially funds its development and acquisition programs through its $335 million unsecured bank credit facilities. As market conditions permit, EastGroup issues equity and/or employs fixed-rate debt, including variable-rate debt that has been swapped to an effectively fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps, to replace short-term bank borrowings. In May 2017, Moody's Investors Service affirmed the Company's issuer rating of Baa2 with a stable outlook. A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency. Each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. For future debt issuances, the Company intends to issue primarily unsecured fixed-rate debt, including variable-rate debt that has been swapped to an effectively fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps. The Company may also access the public debt market in the future as a means to raise capital. EastGroup holds its properties as long-term investments but may determine to sell certain properties that no longer meet its investment criteria. The Company may provide financing in connection with such sales of property if market conditions require. In addition, the Company may provide financing to a partner or co-owner in connection with an acquisition of real estate in certain situations. 4 Subject to the requirements necessary to maintain EastGroup’s qualifications as a REIT, the Company may acquire securities of entities engaged in real estate activities or securities of other issuers, including for the purpose of exercising control over those entities. The Company intends to continue to qualify as a REIT under the Code. To maintain its status as a REIT, the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its ordinary taxable income to its stockholders. If the Company has a capital gain, it has the option of (i) deferring recognition of the capital gain through a tax-deferred exchange, (ii) declaring and paying a capital gain dividend on any recognized net capital gain resulting in no corporate level tax, or (iii) retaining and paying corporate income tax on its net long-term capital gain, with shareholders reporting their proportional share of the undistributed long-term capital gain and receiving a credit or refund of their share of the tax paid by the Company. EastGroup has no present intention of acting as an underwriter of offerings of securities of other issuers. The strategies and policies set forth above were determined and are subject to review by EastGroup's Board of Directors, which may change such strategies or policies based upon its evaluation of the state of the real estate market, the performance of EastGroup's assets, capital and credit market conditions, and other relevant factors. EastGroup provides annual reports to its stockholders, which contain financial statements audited by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. Environmental Matters Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, an owner of real estate may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on or in such property. Many such laws impose liability without regard to whether the owner knows of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. The presence of such substances, or the failure to properly remediate such substances, may adversely affect the owner’s ability to sell or rent such property or to use such property as collateral in its borrowings. EastGroup’s properties have been subjected to Phase I Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs) by independent environmental consultants and, as necessary, have been subjected to Phase II ESAs. These reports have not revealed any potential significant environmental liability. Management of EastGroup is not aware of any environmental liability that would have a material adverse effect on EastGroup’s business, assets, financial position or results of operations. ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS. In addition to the other information contained or incorporated by reference in this document, readers should carefully consider the following risk factors. Any of these risks or the occurrence of any one or more of the uncertainties described below could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and the performance of its business. The Company refers to itself as "we", "us" or "our" in the following risk factors. Real Estate Industry Risks We face risks associated with local real estate conditions in areas where we own properties. We may be adversely affected by general economic conditions and local real estate conditions. For example, an oversupply of industrial properties in a local area or a decline in the attractiveness of our properties to tenants would have a negative effect on us. Other factors that may affect general economic conditions or local real estate conditions include: • • • • • • • population and demographic trends; employment and personal income trends; income and other tax laws; changes in interest rates and availability and costs of financing; increased operating costs, including insurance premiums, utilities and real estate taxes, due to inflation and other factors which may not necessarily be offset by increased rents; changes in the price of oil; and construction costs. We may be unable to compete for properties and tenants. The real estate business is highly competitive. We compete for interests in properties with other real estate investors and purchasers, some of whom have greater financial resources, revenues and geographical diversity than we have. Furthermore, we compete for tenants with other property owners. All of our industrial properties are subject to significant local competition. We also compete with a wide variety of institutions and other investors for capital funds necessary to support our investment activities and asset growth. We are subject to significant regulation that constrains our activities. Local zoning and land use laws, environmental statutes and other governmental requirements restrict our expansion, rehabilitation and reconstruction activities. These regulations may prevent 5 us from taking advantage of economic opportunities. Legislation such as the Americans with Disabilities Act may require us to modify our properties, and noncompliance could result in the imposition of fines or an award of damages to private litigants. Future legislation may impose additional requirements. We cannot predict what requirements may be enacted or what changes may be implemented to existing legislation. Risks Associated with Our Properties We may be unable to lease space. When a lease expires, a tenant may elect not to renew it. We may not be able to re-lease the property on similar terms, if we are able to re-lease the property at all. The terms of renewal or re-lease (including the cost of required renovations and/or concessions to tenants) may be less favorable to us than the prior lease. We also routinely develop properties with no pre-leasing. If we are unable to lease all or a substantial portion of our properties, or if the rental rates upon such leasing are significantly lower than expected rates, our cash generated before debt repayments and capital expenditures and our ability to make expected distributions to stockholders may be adversely affected. We have been and may continue to be affected negatively by tenant bankruptcies and leasing delays. At any time, a tenant may experience a downturn in its business that may weaken its financial condition. Similarly, a general decline in the economy may result in a decline in the demand for space at our industrial properties. As a result, our tenants may delay lease commencement, fail to make rental payments when due, or declare bankruptcy. Any such event could result in the termination of that tenant’s lease and losses to us, and distributions to investors may decrease. We receive a substantial portion of our income as rents under mid- term and long-term leases. If tenants are unable to comply with the terms of their leases because of rising costs or falling sales, we may deem it advisable to modify lease terms to allow tenants to pay a lower rent or a smaller share of taxes, insurance and other operating costs. If a tenant becomes insolvent or bankrupt, we cannot be sure that we could recover the premises from the tenant promptly or from a trustee or debtor-in-possession in any bankruptcy proceeding relating to the tenant. We also cannot be sure that we would receive rent in the proceeding sufficient to cover our expenses with respect to the premises. If a tenant becomes bankrupt, the federal bankruptcy code will apply and, in some instances, may restrict the amount and recoverability of our claims against the tenant. A tenant’s default on its obligations to us could adversely affect our financial condition and the cash we have available for distribution. We face risks associated with our property development. We intend to continue to develop properties where market conditions warrant such investment. Once made, our investments may not produce results in accordance with our expectations. Risks associated with our current and future development and construction activities include: • • • • • • • the availability of favorable financing alternatives; the risk that we may not be able to obtain land on which to develop or that due to the increased cost of land, our activities may not be as profitable; construction costs exceeding original estimates due to rising interest rates and increases in the costs of materials and labor; construction and lease-up delays resulting in increased debt service, fixed expenses and construction costs; expenditure of funds and devotion of management's time to projects that we do not complete; fluctuations of occupancy and rental rates at newly completed properties, which depend on a number of factors, including market and economic conditions, resulting in lower than projected rental rates and a corresponding lower return on our investment; and complications (including building moratoriums and anti-growth legislation) in obtaining necessary zoning, occupancy and other governmental permits. We face risks associated with property acquisitions. We acquire individual properties and portfolios of properties and intend to continue to do so. Our acquisition activities and their success are subject to the following risks: • when we are able to locate a desired property, competition from other real estate investors may significantly increase • • • the purchase price; acquired properties may fail to perform as expected; the actual costs of repositioning or redeveloping acquired properties may be higher than our estimates; acquired properties may be located in new markets where we face risks associated with an incomplete knowledge or understanding of the local market, a limited number of established business relationships in the area and a relative unfamiliarity with local governmental and permitting procedures; • we may be unable to quickly and efficiently integrate new acquisitions, particularly acquisitions of portfolios of properties, into our existing operations, and as a result, our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected; and 6 • we may acquire properties subject to liabilities and without any recourse, or with only limited recourse, to the transferor with respect to unknown liabilities. As a result, if a claim were asserted against us based upon ownership of those properties, we might have to pay substantial sums to settle it, which could adversely affect our cash flow. Coverage under our existing insurance policies may be inadequate to cover losses. We generally maintain insurance policies related to our business, including casualty, general liability and other policies, covering our business operations, employees and assets as appropriate for the markets where our properties and business operations are located. However, we would be required to bear all losses that are not adequately covered by insurance. In addition, there may be certain losses that are not generally insured against or that are not generally fully insured against because it is not deemed economically feasible or prudent to do so, including losses due to floods, wind, earthquakes, acts of war, acts of terrorism or riots. If an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occurs with respect to one or more of our properties, then we could lose the capital we invested in the properties, as well as the anticipated future revenue from the properties. In addition, if the damaged properties are subject to recourse indebtedness, we would continue to be liable for the indebtedness, even if these properties were irreparably damaged. We face risks due to lack of geographic and real estate sector diversity. Substantially all of our properties are located in the Sunbelt region of the United States with an emphasis in the states of Florida, Texas, Arizona, California and North Carolina. As of December 31, 2017, we owned operating properties totaling 5.5 million square feet in Houston and 4.2 million square feet in Tampa, which represent 14.8% and 11.4%, respectively, of the Company's total Real estate properties on a square foot basis. A downturn in general economic conditions and local real estate conditions in these geographic regions, as a result of oversupply of or reduced demand for industrial properties, local business climate, business layoffs and changing demographics, would have a particularly strong adverse effect on us. Our investments in real estate assets are concentrated in the industrial distribution sector. This concentration may expose us to the risk of economic downturns in this sector to a greater extent than if our business activities included other sectors of the real estate industry. We face risks due to the illiquidity of real estate which may limit our ability to vary our portfolio. Real estate investments are relatively illiquid. Our ability to vary our portfolio in response to changes in economic and other conditions will therefore be limited. In addition, because of our status as a REIT, the Internal Revenue Code limits our ability to sell our properties. If we must sell an investment, we cannot ensure that we will be able to dispose of the investment on terms favorable to the Company. We are subject to environmental laws and regulations. Current and previous real estate owners and operators may be required under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations to investigate and clean up hazardous substances released at the properties they own or operate. They may also be liable to the government or to third parties for substantial property or natural resource damage, investigation costs and cleanup costs. Such laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the release or presence of such hazardous substances. In addition, some environmental laws create a lien on the contaminated site in favor of the government for damages and costs the government incurs in connection with the contamination. Contamination may adversely affect the owner’s ability to use, sell or lease real estate or to borrow using the real estate as collateral. We have no way of determining at this time the magnitude of any potential liability to which we may be subject arising out of environmental conditions or violations with respect to the properties we currently or formerly owned. Environmental laws today can impose liability on a previous owner or operator of a property that owned or operated the property at a time when hazardous or toxic substances were disposed of, released from, or present at the property. A conveyance of the property, therefore, may not relieve the owner or operator from liability. Although ESAs have been conducted at our properties to identify potential sources of contamination at the properties, such ESAs do not reveal all environmental liabilities or compliance concerns that could arise from the properties. Moreover, material environmental liabilities or compliance concerns may exist, of which we are currently unaware, that in the future may have a material adverse effect on our business, assets or results of operations. 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. Proposed legislation could also increase the costs of energy and utilities. The cost of the proposed legislation may adversely affect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. We may be adversely affected by floods, hurricanes and other climate related events. Financing Risks We face risks associated with the use of debt to fund acquisitions and developments, including refinancing risk. We are subject to the risks normally associated with debt financing, including the risk that our cash flow will be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest. In addition, certain of our debt will have significant outstanding principal balances on their maturity dates, commonly known as “balloon payments.” Therefore, we will likely need to refinance at least a portion of our outstanding debt as it matures. There is a risk that we may not be able to refinance existing debt or that the terms of any refinancing will not be as favorable as the terms of the existing debt. 7 We face risks associated with our dependence on external sources of capital. In order to qualify as a REIT, we are required each year to distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our ordinary taxable income, and we are subject to tax on our income to the extent it is not distributed. Because of this distribution requirement, we may not be able to fund all future capital needs from cash retained from operations. As a result, to fund capital needs, we rely on third-party sources of capital, which we may not be able to obtain on favorable terms, if at all. Our access to third-party sources of capital depends upon a number of factors, including (i) general market conditions; (ii) the market’s perception of our growth potential; (iii) our current and potential future earnings and cash distributions; and (iv) the market price of our capital stock. Additional debt financing may substantially increase our debt-to-total market capitalization ratio. Additional equity financing may dilute the holdings of our current stockholders. Covenants in our credit agreements could limit our flexibility and adversely affect our financial condition. The terms of our various credit agreements and other indebtedness require us to comply with a number of customary financial and other covenants, such as maintaining debt service coverage and leverage ratios and maintaining insurance coverage. These covenants may limit our flexibility in our operations, and breaches of these covenants could result in defaults under the instruments governing the applicable indebtedness even if we had satisfied our payment obligations. If we are unable to refinance our indebtedness at maturity or meet our payment obligations, the amount of our distributable cash flow and our financial condition would be adversely affected. Adverse changes in our credit ratings could impair our ability to obtain additional debt and equity financing on favorable terms, if at all. Our credit ratings are based on our operating performance, liquidity and leverage ratios, overall financial position and other factors employed by the credit rating agencies in their rating analysis of us. Our credit ratings can affect the amount and type of capital we can access, as well as the terms of any financings we may obtain. There can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain our current credit ratings. In the event our current credit ratings deteriorate, it may be more difficult or expensive to obtain additional financing or refinance existing obligations and commitments. Also, a downgrade in our credit ratings would trigger additional costs or other potentially negative consequences under our current and future credit facilities and debt instruments. Increases in interest rates would increase our interest expense. At December 31, 2017, we had $116.3 million of variable-rate debt outstanding not protected by interest rate hedge contracts. We may incur additional variable-rate debt in the future. If interest rates increase, then so would the interest expense on our unhedged variable-rate debt, which would adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. From time to time, we manage our exposure to interest rate risk with interest rate hedge contracts that effectively fix or cap a portion of our variable-rate debt. In addition, we refinance fixed-rate debt at times when we believe rates and terms are appropriate. Our efforts to manage these exposures may not be successful. Our use of interest rate hedge contracts to manage risk associated with interest rate volatility may expose us to additional risks, including a risk that a counterparty to a hedge contract may fail to honor its obligations. Developing an effective interest rate risk strategy is complex and no strategy can completely insulate us from risks associated with interest rate fluctuations. There can be no assurance that our hedging activities will have the desired beneficial impact on our results of operations or financial condition. Termination of interest rate hedge contracts typically involves costs, such as transaction fees or breakage costs. A lack of any limitation on our debt could result in our becoming more highly leveraged. Our governing documents do not limit the amount of indebtedness we may incur. Accordingly, we may incur additional debt and would do so, for example, if it were necessary to maintain our status as a REIT. We might become more highly leveraged as a result, and our financial condition and cash available for distribution to stockholders might be negatively affected and the risk of default on our indebtedness could increase. Other Risks The market value of our common stock could decrease based on our performance and market perception and conditions. The market value of our common stock may be affected by the market’s perception of our operating results, growth potential, and current and future cash dividends and may also be affected by the real estate market value of our underlying assets. The market price of our common stock may be influenced by the dividend on our common stock relative to market interest rates. Rising interest rates may lead potential buyers of our common stock to expect a higher dividend rate, which would adversely affect the market price of our common stock. In addition, rising interest rates would result in increased expense, thereby adversely affecting cash flow and our ability to service our indebtedness and pay dividends. The state of the economy or other adverse changes in general or local economic conditions may adversely affect our operating results and financial condition. Turmoil in the global financial markets may have an adverse impact on the availability of credit to businesses generally and could lead to a further weakening of the U.S. and global economies. Currently these conditions have not impaired our ability to access credit markets and finance our operations. However, our ability to access the capital markets may be restricted at a time when we would like, or need, to raise financing, which could have an impact on our flexibility to react to changing economic and business conditions. Furthermore, deteriorating economic conditions including business layoffs, downsizing, industry slowdowns and other similar factors that affect our customers could continue to negatively impact commercial real estate fundamentals and result in lower occupancy, lower rental rates and declining values in our real estate portfolio and in 8 the collateral securing any loan investments we may make. Additionally, an adverse economic situation could have an impact on our lenders or customers, causing them to fail to meet their obligations to us. No assurances can be given that the effects of an adverse economic situation will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We may fail to qualify as a REIT. If we fail to qualify as a REIT, we will not be allowed to deduct distributions to stockholders in computing our taxable income and will be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates. In addition, we may be barred from qualification as a REIT for the four years following disqualification. The additional tax incurred at regular corporate rates would significantly reduce the cash flow available for distribution to stockholders and for debt service. Furthermore, we would no longer be required by the Internal Revenue Code to make any distributions to our stockholders as a condition of REIT qualification. Any distributions to stockholders would be taxable as ordinary income to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits. Corporate distributees, however, may be eligible for the dividends received deduction on the distributions, subject to limitations under the Internal Revenue Code. To qualify as a REIT, we must comply with certain highly technical and complex requirements. We cannot be certain we have complied with these requirements because there are few judicial and administrative interpretations of these provisions. In addition, facts and circumstances that may be beyond our control may affect our ability to qualify as a REIT. We cannot assure you that new legislation, regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions will not change the tax laws significantly with respect to our qualification as a REIT or with respect to the federal income tax consequences of qualification. We cannot assure you that we will remain qualified as a REIT. There is a risk of changes in the tax law applicable to real estate investment trusts. Since the Internal Revenue Service, the United States Treasury Department and Congress frequently review federal income tax legislation, we cannot predict whether, when or to what extent new federal tax laws, regulations, interpretations or rulings will be adopted. Any such legislative action may prospectively or retroactively modify our tax treatment and, therefore, may adversely affect taxation of us and/or our investors. We face possible adverse changes in tax laws. From time to time, changes in state and local tax laws or regulations are enacted which may result in an increase in our tax liability. A shortfall in tax revenues for states and municipalities in which we operate may lead to an increase in the frequency and size of such changes. If such changes occur, we may be required to pay additional taxes on our assets or income. These increased tax costs could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and the amount of cash available for the payment of dividends. To maintain our status as a REIT, we limit the amount of shares any one stockholder can own. The Internal Revenue Code imposes certain limitations on the ownership of the stock of a REIT. For example, not more than 50% in value of our outstanding shares of capital stock may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the Code) during the last half of any taxable year. To protect our REIT status, our charter prohibits any holder from acquiring more than 9.8% (in value or in number, whichever is more restrictive) of our outstanding equity stock (defined as all of our classes of capital stock, except our excess stock (of which there is none outstanding)) unless our Board of Directors grants a waiver. The ownership limit may limit the opportunity for stockholders to receive a premium for their shares of common stock that might otherwise exist if an investor were attempting to assemble a block of shares in excess of 9.8% of the outstanding shares of equity stock or otherwise effect a change in control. Certain tax and anti-takeover provisions of our charter and bylaws may inhibit a change of our control. Certain provisions contained in our charter and bylaws and the Maryland General Corporation Law may discourage a third party from making a tender offer or acquisition proposal to us. If this were to happen, it could delay, deter or prevent a change in control or the removal of existing management. These provisions also may delay or prevent the shareholders from receiving a premium for their common shares over then-prevailing market prices. These provisions include: • • • • the REIT ownership limit described above; special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by the chairman of the board, the chief executive officer, the president, a majority of the board or by stockholders possessing a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast at the meeting; our Board of Directors may authorize and issue securities without stockholder approval; and advance-notice requirements for proposals to be presented at stockholder meetings. In addition, Maryland law provides protection for Maryland corporations against unsolicited takeovers by limiting, among other things, the duties of the directors in unsolicited takeover situations. The duties of directors of Maryland corporations do not require them to (a) accept, recommend or respond to any proposal by a person seeking to acquire control of the corporation, (b) authorize the corporation to redeem any rights under, or modify or render inapplicable, any stockholders rights plan, (c) make a determination under the Maryland Business Combination Act or the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act, or (d) act or fail to act solely because of the effect of the act or failure to act may have on an acquisition or potential acquisition of control of the corporation or the amount or type of consideration that may be offered or paid to the stockholders in an acquisition. Moreover, under Maryland 9 law the act of a director of a Maryland corporation relating to or affecting an acquisition or potential acquisition of control is not subject to any higher duty or greater scrutiny than is applied to any other act of a director. Maryland law also contains a statutory presumption that an act of a director of a Maryland corporation satisfies the applicable standards of conduct for directors under Maryland law. The Maryland Business Combination Act provides that unless exempted, a Maryland corporation may not engage in business combinations, including mergers, dispositions of 10 percent or more of its assets, certain issuances of shares of stock and other specified transactions, with an "interested stockholder" or an affiliate of an interested stockholder for five years after the most recent date on which the interested stockholder became an interested stockholder, and thereafter unless specified criteria are met. An interested stockholder is generally a person owning or controlling, directly or indirectly, 10 percent or more of the voting power of the outstanding stock of the Maryland corporation. These provisions of Maryland law do not apply, however, to business combinations that are approved or exempted by a board of directors prior to the time that the interested stockholder becomes an interested stockholder. Pursuant to the statute, our Board of Directors has by resolution exempted business combinations between us and any other person and such resolution may not be revoked, altered or amended without prior stockholder approval. The Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act provides that "control shares" of a corporation acquired in a "control share acquisition" shall have no voting rights except to the extent approved by a vote of two-thirds of the votes eligible to cast on the matter. "Control Shares" means shares of stock that, if aggregated with all other shares of stock previously acquired by the acquirer, would entitle the acquirer to exercise voting power in electing directors within one of the following ranges of the voting power: one-tenth or more but less than one-third, one-third or more but less than a majority, or a majority or more of all voting power. A "control share acquisition" means the acquisition of control shares, subject to certain exceptions. If voting rights of control shares acquired in a control share acquisition are not approved at a stockholders' meeting, then subject to certain conditions and limitations, the issuer may redeem any or all of the control shares for fair value. If voting rights of such control shares are approved at a stockholders' meeting and the acquirer becomes entitled to vote a majority of the shares of stock entitled to vote, all other stockholders may exercise appraisal rights. Our bylaws contain a provision exempting from the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act any and all acquisitions by any person of our stock. Our bylaws prohibit the repeal, amendment or alteration of this provision without the approval by the Company’s stockholders; however, there can be no assurance that this provision will not be amended or eliminated at some time in the future. The Company faces risks in attracting and retaining key personnel. Many of our senior executives have strong industry reputations, which aid us in identifying acquisition and development opportunities and negotiating with tenants and sellers of properties. The loss of the services of these key personnel could affect our operations because of diminished relationships with existing and prospective tenants, property sellers and industry personnel. In addition, attracting new or replacement personnel may be difficult in a competitive market. We have severance and change in control agreements with certain of our officers that may deter changes in control of the Company. If, within a certain time period (as set in the officer’s agreement) following a change in control, we terminate the officer's employment other than for cause, or if the officer elects to terminate his or her employment with us for reasons specified in the agreement, we will make a severance payment equal to the officer's average annual compensation times an amount specified in the officer's agreement, together with the officer's base salary and vacation pay that have accrued but are unpaid through the date of termination. These agreements may deter a change in control because of the increased cost for a third party to acquire control of us. We rely on information technology in our operations, and any material failure, inadequacy, interruption or security failure of that technology could harm our business. We rely on information technology networks and systems, including the internet, to process, transmit and store electronic information, and to manage or support a variety of business processes, including financial transactions and records, and maintaining personal identifying information and customer and lease data. We purchase some of our information technology from vendors, on whom our systems depend. We rely on commercially available systems, software, tools and monitoring to provide security for the processing, transmission and storage of confidential customer data, including individually identifiable information relating to financial accounts. Although we have taken steps to protect the security of our information systems and the data maintained in those systems, it is possible that our safety and security measures will not prevent the systems' improper functioning or damage, or the improper access or disclosure of personally identifiable information such as in the event of cyber- attacks. Security breaches, including physical or electronic break-ins, computer viruses, attacks by hackers and similar breaches, can create system disruptions, shutdowns or unauthorized disclosure of confidential information. In some cases, it may be difficult to anticipate or immediately detect such incidents and the damage they cause. Any failure to maintain proper function, security and availability of our information systems could interrupt our operations, damage our reputation, subject us to liability claims or regulatory penalties and could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. 10 We may be impacted by changes in U.S. social, political, regulatory and economic conditions or laws and policies. Any changes to U.S. tax laws, foreign trade, manufacturing, and development and investment in the territories and countries where our customers operate could adversely affect our operating results and our business. ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS. None. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES. EastGroup owned 363 industrial properties and one office building at December 31, 2017. These properties are located primarily in the Sunbelt states of Florida, Texas, Arizona, California and North Carolina, and the majority are clustered around major transportation features in supply constrained submarkets. As of February 13, 2018, EastGroup’s portfolio was 96.7% leased and 96.2% occupied. The Company has developed approximately 45% of its total portfolio (on a square foot basis), including real estate properties and development properties in lease-up and under construction. The Company’s focus is the ownership of business distribution space (87% of the total portfolio) with the remainder in bulk distribution space (9%) and business service space (4%). Business distribution space properties are typically multi-tenant buildings with a building depth of 200 feet or less, clear height of 24-30 feet, office finish of 10-25% and truck courts with a depth of 100-120 feet. See Consolidated Financial Statement Schedule III – Real Estate Properties and Accumulated Depreciation for a detailed listing of the Company’s properties. At December 31, 2017, EastGroup did not own any single property with a book value that was 10% or more of total book value or with gross revenues that were 10% or more of total gross revenues.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION Certain statements contained in this report may be deemed “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as “will,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “believes,” “intends,” “plans,” “seeks,” “estimates,” variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. All statements that address operating performance, events or developments that the Company expects or anticipates will occur in the future, including statements relating to rent and occupancy growth, development activity, the acquisition or sale of properties, general conditions in the geographic areas where the Company operates and the availability of capital, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which the Company cannot predict, including, without limitation: changes in general economic conditions; the extent of tenant defaults or of any early lease terminations; the Company's ability to lease or re-lease space at current or anticipated rents; the availability of financing; the failure to maintain credit ratings with rating agencies; changes in the supply of and demand for industrial/warehouse properties; increases in interest rate levels; increases in operating costs; natural disasters, terrorism, riots and acts of war, and the Company's ability to obtain adequate insurance; changes in governmental regulation, tax rates and similar matters; and other risks associated with the development and acquisition of properties, including risks that development projects may not be completed on schedule, development or operating costs may be greater than anticipated or acquisitions may not close as scheduled, and those additional factors discussed under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in Part I of this report. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions at the time made, the Company can give no assurance that such expectations will be achieved. The Company assumes no obligation whatsoever to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements. See also the information contained in the Company’s reports filed or to be filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). OVERVIEW EastGroup’s goal is to maximize shareholder value by being a leading provider in its markets of functional, flexible and quality business distribution space for location sensitive customers primarily in the 15,000 to 50,000 square foot range. The Company develops, acquires and operates distribution facilities, the majority of which are clustered around major transportation features in supply constrained submarkets in major Sunbelt regions. The Company’s core markets are in the states of Florida, Texas, Arizona, California and North Carolina. The Company believes its current operating cash flow and unsecured bank credit facilities provide the capacity to fund the operations of the Company, and the Company also believes it can issue common and/or preferred equity and obtain debt financing. During 2017, EastGroup obtained unsecured debt totaling $60 million and issued 1,370,457 shares of common stock through its continuous common equity program, providing net proceeds to the Company of $109 million. EastGroup's financing and equity issuances are further described in Liquidity and Capital Resources. The Company’s primary revenue is rental income; as such, EastGroup’s greatest challenge is leasing space. During 2017, leases expired on 6,475,000 square feet (17.3% of EastGroup’s total square footage of 37,338,000), and the Company was successful in renewing or re-leasing 85% of the expiring square feet. In addition, EastGroup leased 2,120,000 square feet of other vacant space during the year. During 2017, average rental rates on new and renewal leases increased by 16.8%. Property net operating income (PNOI) from same properties, defined as operating properties owned during the entire current period and prior year reporting period, increased 2.8% for 2017 compared to 2016. EastGroup’s total leased percentage was 97.0% at December 31, 2017 compared to 97.3% at December 31, 2016. Leases scheduled to expire in 2018 were 11.0% of the portfolio on a square foot basis at December 31, 2017. As of February 13, 2018, leases scheduled to expire during the remainder of 2018 were 9.6% of the portfolio on a square foot basis. The Company generates new sources of leasing revenue through its development and acquisition programs. The Company mitigates risks associated with development through a Board-approved maximum level of land held for development and by adjusting development start dates according to leasing activity. During 2017, EastGroup acquired 840,000 square feet of properties and 90 acres of land for a total of $82 million. The Company began construction of 12 development projects containing 1,339,000 square feet in Austin, Dallas, San Antonio, Phoenix, Tampa, Orlando, and Charlotte. Also in 2017, the Company transferred 12 properties (2,197,000 square feet) in Dallas, San Antonio, Las Vegas, Orlando, Tampa, Charlotte and Phoenix from its development program to real estate properties with costs of $160.1 million 15 at the date of transfer. As of December 31, 2017, EastGroup's development program consisted of 18 buildings (2,166,000 square feet) located in 11 cities. The projected total cost for the development projects, which were collectively 50% leased as of February 13, 2018, is $185 million, of which $54 million remained to be invested as of December 31, 2017. During 2017, EastGroup sold 514,000 square feet of operating properties and 19 acres of land, generating gross sales proceeds of $41.8 million. The Company recognized $21,855,000 in Gain, net of loss, on sales of real estate investments and $293,000 in Gain, net of loss, on sales of non-operating real estate (included in Other on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income) during 2017. Typically, the Company initially funds its development and acquisition programs through its $335 million unsecured bank credit facilities (as discussed in Liquidity and Capital Resources). As market conditions permit, EastGroup issues equity and/or employs fixed-rate debt, including variable-rate debt that has been swapped to an effectively fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps, to replace short-term bank borrowings. In May 2017, Moody's Investors Service affirmed the Company's issuer rating of Baa2 with a stable outlook. A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency. Each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. For future debt issuances, the Company intends to issue primarily unsecured fixed-rate debt, including variable-rate debt that has been swapped to an effectively fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps. The Company may also access the public debt market in the future as a means to raise capital. EastGroup has one reportable segment – industrial properties. These properties are primarily located in major Sunbelt regions of the United States, have similar economic characteristics and also meet the other criteria permitting the properties to be aggregated into one reportable segment. The Company’s chief decision makers use two primary measures of operating results in making decisions: (1) property net operating income (PNOI), defined as Income from real estate operations less Expenses from real estate operations (including market-based internal management fee expense) plus the Company's share of income and property operating expenses from its less-than-wholly-owned real estate investments, and (2) funds from operations attributable to common stockholders (FFO), defined as net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders computed in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), excluding gains or losses from sales of depreciable real estate property and impairment losses, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The Company calculates FFO based on the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts’ (NAREIT) definition. PNOI is a supplemental industry reporting measurement used to evaluate the performance of the Company’s real estate investments. The Company believes the exclusion of depreciation and amortization in the industry’s calculation of PNOI provides a supplemental indicator of the properties’ performance since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions. PNOI as calculated by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled but differently calculated measures for other real estate investment trusts (REITs). The major factors influencing PNOI are occupancy levels, acquisitions and sales, development properties that achieve stabilized operations, rental rate increases or decreases, and the recoverability of operating expenses. The Company’s success depends largely upon its ability to lease space and to recover from tenants the operating costs associated with those leases. PNOI is comprised of Income from real estate operations, less Expenses from real estate operations plus the Company's share of income and property operating expenses from its less-than-wholly-owned real estate investments. PNOI was calculated as follows for the three fiscal years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015. Income from real estate operations Expenses from real estate operations Noncontrolling interest in PNOI of consolidated 80% joint ventures PNOI from 50% owned unconsolidated investment PROPERTY NET OPERATING INCOME (PNOI) 274,031 (80,108) (633) 897 194,187 $ $ 2017 Years Ended December 31, 2016 (In thousands) 252,961 (74,347) (823) 906 178,697 2015 234,918 (67,402) (851) 842 167,507 Income from real estate operations is comprised of rental income, expense reimbursement pass-through income and other real estate income including lease termination fees. Expenses from real estate operations is comprised of property taxes, insurance, utilities, repair and maintenance expenses, management fees, other operating costs and bad debt expense. Generally, the Company’s most significant operating expenses are property taxes and insurance. Tenant leases may be net leases in which the total operating expenses are recoverable, modified gross leases in which some of the operating expenses are recoverable, or gross leases in which no expenses are recoverable (gross leases represent only a small portion of the Company’s total leases). Increases in property 16 operating expenses are fully recoverable under net leases and recoverable to a high degree under modified gross leases. Modified gross leases often include base year amounts and expense increases over these amounts are recoverable. The Company’s exposure to property operating expenses is primarily due to vacancies and leases for occupied space that limit the amount of expenses that can be recovered. The following table presents reconciliations of Net Income to PNOI for the three fiscal years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015. Years Ended December 31, 2017 $ 83,589 NET INCOME (21,855) (Gain) loss on sales of real estate investments (293) (Gain), net of loss, on sales of non-operating real estate (247) Interest income (119) Other income — Interest rate swap ineffectiveness 83,874 Depreciation and amortization 124 Company's share of depreciation from unconsolidated investment 34,775 Interest expense General and administrative expense 14,972 — Acquisition costs (633) Noncontrolling interest in PNOI of consolidated 80% joint ventures 194,187 PROPERTY NET OPERATING INCOME (PNOI) $ 2016 (In thousands) 96,094 (42,170) (733) (255) (86) 5 77,935 124 35,213 13,232 161 (823) 178,697 2015 48,399 (2,903) (123) (258) (90) — 73,290 122 34,666 15,091 164 (851) 167,507 The Company believes FFO is a meaningful supplemental measure of operating performance for equity REITs. The Company believes excluding depreciation and amortization in the calculation of FFO is appropriate since real estate values have historically increased or decreased based on market conditions. FFO is not considered as an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of the Company’s financial performance, nor is it a measure of the Company’s liquidity or indicative of funds available to provide for the Company’s cash needs, including its ability to make distributions. In addition, FFO, as reported by the Company, may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition. The Company’s key drivers affecting FFO are changes in PNOI (as discussed above), interest rates, the amount of leverage the Company employs and general and administrative expenses. The following table presents reconciliations of Net Income Attributable to EastGroup Properties, Inc. Common Stockholders to FFO Attributable to Common Stockholders for the three fiscal years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015. 2017 Years Ended December 31, 2016 (In thousands, except per share data) 2015 NET INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, 83,183 INC.

For 2017, FFO was $4.26 per share compared with $4.02 per share for 2016, an increase of 6.0% per share. • For the year ended December 31, 2017, PNOI increased by $15,490,000, or 8.7%, compared to 2016. PNOI increased $10,327,000 from newly developed and redeveloped properties, $4,765,000 from same property operations and $3,355,000 from 2016 and 2017 acquisitions; PNOI decreased $2,767,000 from operating properties sold in 2016 and 2017. • The same property net operating income change represents the PNOI increase or decrease for the same operating properties owned during the entire current period and prior year reporting period. PNOI from same properties increased 2.8% for the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to 2016. • Same property average occupancy represents the average month-end percentage of leased square footage for which the lease term has commenced as compared to the total leasable square footage for the same operating properties owned during the entire current period and prior year reporting period. Same property average occupancy for the year ended December 31, 2017, was 96.8% compared to 96.5% for 2016. • Occupancy is the percentage of leased square footage for which the lease term has commenced as compared to the total leasable square footage as of the close of the reporting period. Occupancy at December 31, 2017 was 96.4%. Quarter- end occupancy ranged from 94.9% to 96.8% over the previous four quarters ended December 31, 2016 to September 30, 2017. • Rental rate change represents the rental rate increase or decrease on new and renewal leases compared to the prior leases on the same space. For the year 2017, rental rate increases on new and renewal leases (20.5% of total square footage) averaged 16.8%. • Lease termination fee income is included in Income from real estate operations. For the year 2017, lease termination fee income was $468,000 compared to $812,000 for 2016. • Bad debt expense is included in Expenses from real estate operations. The Company recorded bad debt expense of $499,000 in 2017 and $992,000 in 2016. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES The Company’s management considers the following accounting policies and estimates to be critical to the reported operations of the Company. Real Estate Properties The Company applied the principles of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 805, Business Combinations, when accounting for purchases of real estate until its adoption of ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which was effective October 1, 2016. ASU 2017-01 provides a new framework for determining whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. Under the new guidance, companies are required to utilize an initial screening test to determine whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets; if so, the set is not a business. EastGroup has determined that some of its real estate property acquisitions may be considered to be acquisitions of groups of similar identifiable assets; therefore, the acquisitions are not considered to be acquisitions of a business. The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Codification provides guidance on how to properly determine the allocation of the purchase price among the individual components of both the tangible and intangible assets based on their respective fair values. Goodwill for business combinations is recorded when the purchase price exceeds the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired. Factors considered by management in allocating the cost of the properties acquired include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. The allocation to tangible assets (land, building and improvements) is based upon management’s determination of the value of the property as if it were vacant using discounted cash flow models. The Company determines whether any financing assumed is above or below market based upon comparison to similar financing terms for similar properties. The cost of the properties acquired may be adjusted based on indebtedness assumed from the seller that is determined to be above or below market rates. 18 The purchase price is also allocated among the following categories of intangible assets: the above or below market component of in-place leases, the value of in-place leases, and the value of customer relationships. The value allocable to the above or below market component of an acquired in-place lease is determined based upon the present value (using a discount rate reflecting the risks associated with the acquired leases) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the lease over its remaining term, and (ii) management’s estimate of the amounts that would be paid using fair market rates over the remaining term of the lease. The amounts allocated to above and below market leases are included in Other assets and Other liabilities, respectively, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized to rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases. The total amount of intangible assets is further allocated to in-place lease values and customer relationship values based upon management’s assessment of their respective values. These intangible assets are included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized over the remaining term of the existing lease, or the anticipated life of the customer relationship, as applicable. For properties under development and properties acquired in the development stage, costs associated with development (i.e., land, construction costs, interest expense, property taxes and other costs associated with development) are aggregated into the total capitalized costs of the property. Included in these costs are management’s estimates for the portions of internal costs (primarily personnel costs) deemed related to such development activities. The internal costs are allocated to specific development properties based on development activity. The Company reviews its real estate investments for impairment of value whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If any real estate investment is considered permanently impaired, a loss is recorded to reduce the carrying value of the property to its estimated fair value. Real estate assets classified as held for sale are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less estimated costs of sale. The evaluation of real estate investments involves many subjective assumptions dependent upon future economic events that affect the ultimate value of the property. Currently, the Company’s management has not identified any impairment charges which should be recorded nor has it recorded any impairment charges in recent years. In the event of impairment, the property’s basis would be reduced, and the impairment would be recognized as a current period charge on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. Valuation of Receivables The Company is subject to tenant defaults and bankruptcies that could affect the collection of outstanding receivables. In order to mitigate these risks, the Company performs credit reviews and analyses on prospective tenants before significant leases are executed and on existing tenants before properties are acquired. On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates outstanding receivables and estimates the allowance for doubtful accounts. Management specifically analyzes aged receivables, customer credit-worthiness, historical bad debts and current economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company believes its allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate for its outstanding receivables for the periods presented. In the event the allowance for doubtful accounts is insufficient for an account that is subsequently written off, additional bad debt expense would be recognized as a current period charge on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. Tax Status EastGroup, a Maryland corporation, has qualified as a real estate investment trust under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code and intends to continue to qualify as such. To maintain its status as a REIT, the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its ordinary taxable income to its stockholders. If the Company has a capital gain, it has the option of (i) deferring recognition of the capital gain through a tax-deferred exchange, (ii) declaring and paying a capital gain dividend on any recognized net capital gain resulting in no corporate level tax, or (iii) retaining and paying corporate income tax on its net long-term capital gain, with shareholders reporting their proportional share of the undistributed long-term capital gain and receiving a credit or refund of their share of the tax paid by the Company. The Company distributed all of its 2017, 2016 and 2015 taxable income to its stockholders. Accordingly, no significant provisions for income taxes were necessary. FINANCIAL CONDITION EastGroup’s Total Assets were $1,953,221,000 at December 31, 2017, an increase of $127,457,000 from December 31, 2016. Total Liabilities increased $18,193,000 to $1,202,091,000, and Total Equity increased $109,264,000 to $751,130,000 during the same period. The following paragraphs explain these changes in detail. Assets Real Estate Properties Real estate properties increased $222,386,000 during the year ended December 31, 2017, primarily due to the transfer of 12 properties from Development, as detailed under Development below; the purchase of the operating properties detailed below; and 19 capital improvements at the Company's properties. These increases were partially offset by the operating property sales discussed below. During 2017, EastGroup acquired the following operating properties: REAL ESTATE OPERATING PROPERTIES ACQUIRED IN 2017 Shiloh 400 Broadmoor Commerce Park Southpark Corporate Center 5-7 Hurricane Shoals 1 & 2 Total Acquisitions Location Size (Square feet) Date Acquired Atlanta, GA Atlanta, GA Austin, TX Atlanta, GA 238,000 02/07/2017 84,000 99,000 260,000 681,000 04/26/2017 05/12/2017 12/12/2017 Cost (1) (In thousands) 18,712 $ 5,363 9,590 17,874 51,539 $ (1) Total cost of the operating properties acquired was $54,879,000, of which $51,539,000 was allocated to Real estate properties as indicated above. The Company allocated $9,984,000 of the total purchase price to land using third party land valuations for the Atlanta and Austin markets. The market values are considered to be Level 3 inputs as defined by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (see Note 18 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on ASC 820). Intangibles associated with the purchases of real estate were allocated as follows: $3,610,000 to in-place lease intangibles and $115,000 to above market leases (both included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets), and $385,000 to below market leases (included in Other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets). During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company made capital improvements of $27,471,000 on existing and acquired properties (included in the Capital Expenditures table under Results of Operations). Also, the Company incurred costs of $12,811,000 on development projects subsequent to transfer to Real estate properties; the Company records these expenditures as development costs on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. EastGroup sold the following operating properties during 2017: Stemmons Circle in Dallas and Techway Southwest I-IV in Houston. The properties (514,000 square feet combined) were sold for $38.0 million and the Company recognized gains on the sales of $21.9 million. Development EastGroup’s investment in development at December 31, 2017 consisted of properties in lease-up and under construction of $130,505,000 and prospective development (primarily land) of $111,509,000. The Company’s total investment in development at December 31, 2017 was $242,014,000 compared to $293,908,000 at December 31, 2016. Total capital invested for development during 2017 was $124,938,000, which primarily consisted of costs of $93,395,000 and $14,819,000 as detailed in the development activity table below and costs of $12,811,000 on development projects subsequent to transfer to Real estate properties. The capitalized costs incurred on development projects subsequent to transfer to Real estate properties include capital improvements at the properties and do not include other capitalized costs associated with development (i.e., interest expense, property taxes and internal personnel costs). EastGroup capitalized internal development costs of $4,754,000 during the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to $3,789,000 during 2016. During 2017, the Company acquired Progress Center 1 & 2, a development-stage operating property containing 132,000 square feet, in Atlanta for $10,364,000, of which $10,312,000 was allocated to Development. The Company allocated $1,297,000 of the total purchase price to land using third party land valuations for the Atlanta market. Intangibles associated with the purchase of real estate were allocated as follows: $52,000 to in-place lease intangibles (included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets). These costs are amortized over the remaining lives of the associated leases in place at the time of acquisition. Costs associated with the development-stage operating property acquisitions, except for the amounts allocated to in-place lease intangibles, are included in the development activity table below. During 2017, EastGroup purchased 88 acres of development land in San Antonio, Austin, Atlanta and Charlotte for $12,226,000. Costs associated with these acquisitions are included in the development activity table. These increases were offset by the sale of 19 acres of land for $3,778,000 and the transfer of 12 development projects to Real estate properties during 2017 with a total investment of $160,108,000 as of the date of transfer. 20 DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITY LEASE-UP Alamo Ridge IV, San Antonio, TX Weston, Ft.

Accumulated Depreciation Accumulated depreciation on real estate and development properties increased $55,351,000 during 2017 due primarily to depreciation expense of $69,010,000, offset by the sale of 514,000 square feet of operating properties during the period. Other Assets Other assets increased $12,474,000 during 2017.

The Company’s credit facilities are described in greater detail under Liquidity and Capital Resources. Unsecured debt increased $60,223,000 during 2017, primarily due to the closing of $60 million of senior unsecured private placement notes in December 2017, and the amortization of debt issuance costs. Secured debt decreased $57,993,000 during the year ended December 31, 2017. The decrease primarily resulted from the repayment of one mortgage loan with a balance of $45,069,000, regularly scheduled principal payments of $13,139,000 and amortization of premiums on Secured debt, offset by the amortization of debt issuance costs during the period. Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased $12,266,000 during 2017. A summary of the Company’s Accounts payable and accrued expenses follows: December 31, 2017 2016 (In thousands) Property taxes payable $ 12,081 Development costs payable Real estate improvements and capitalized leasing costs payable Interest payable Dividends payable on unvested restricted stock Book overdraft (1) Other payables and accrued expenses Total Accounts payable and accrued expenses $ 9,699 3,957 3,744 1,365 20,902 13,219 64,967 14,186 9,844 2,304 3,822 1,530 14,452 6,563 52,701 (1) Represents unfunded outstanding checks for which the bank has not advanced cash to the Company.

EastGroup issued 1,370,457 shares of common stock under its continuous common equity program with net proceeds to the Company of $109,207,000. 23 During 2017, Distributions in excess of earnings increased $3,377,000 as a result of dividends on common stock of $86,560,000 exceeding Net Income Attributable to EastGroup Properties, Inc. Common Stockholders of $83,183,000. Accumulated other comprehensive income increased $3,353,000 during 2017. The increase resulted from the change in fair value of the Company's interest rate swaps (cash flow hedges) which are further discussed in Notes 12 and 13 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 2017 Compared to 2016 Net Income Attributable to EastGroup Properties, Inc. Common Stockholders for 2017 was $83,183,000 ($2.45 per basic and $2.44 per diluted share) compared to $95,509,000 ($2.93 per basic and diluted share) for 2016.

PNOI increased $10,327,000 from newly developed and redeveloped properties, $4,765,000 from same property operations and $3,355,000 from 2016 and 2017 acquisitions; PNOI decreased $2,767,000 from operating properties sold in 2016 and 2017. For the year 2017, lease termination fee income was $468,000 compared to $812,000 for 2016. The Company recorded net bad debt expense of $499,000 in 2017 and $992,000 in 2016. Straight-lining of rent increased Income from real estate operations by $3,723,000 and $2,839,000 in 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Company signed 138 leases with certain free rent concessions on 3,919,000 square feet during 2017 with total free rent concessions of $5,672,000 over the lives of the leases, compared to 143 leases with free rent concessions on 4,176,000 square feet with total free rent concessions of $5,286,000 over the lives of the leases in 2016. The Company’s percentage of leased square footage was 97.0% at December 31, 2017, compared to 97.3% at December 31, 2016. Occupancy at the end of 2017 was 96.4% compared to 96.8% at the end of 2016. Same property average occupancy represents the average month-end percentage of leased square footage for which the lease term has commenced as compared to the total leasable square footage for the same operating properties owned during the entire current period and prior year reporting period. Same property average occupancy for the year ended December 31, 2017, was 96.8% compared to 96.5% for 2016. The same property average rental rate calculated in accordance with GAAP represents the average annual rental rates of leases in place for the same operating properties owned during the entire current period and prior year reporting period. The same property average rental rate was $5.79 per square foot for the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to $5.57 per square foot for 2016. 24 Interest Expense decreased $438,000 for 2017 compared to 2016. The following table presents the components of Interest Expense for 2017 and 2016: Years Ended December 31, 2017 2016 (In thousands) Increase (Decrease) VARIABLE RATE INTEREST EXPENSE Unsecured bank credit facilities interest - variable rate (excluding amortization of facility fees and debt issuance costs) 2,379 1,583 796 $ 670 670 Amortization of facility fees - unsecured bank credit facilities 451 Amortization of debt issuance costs - unsecured bank credit facilities 450 Total variable rate interest expense 3,500 FIXED RATE INTEREST EXPENSE Unsecured bank credit facilities interest - fixed rate (1) 2,703 — 1 797 (excluding amortization of facility fees and debt issuance costs) 1,616 1,002 614 Unsecured debt interest (1) (excluding amortization of debt issuance costs) Secured debt interest (excluding amortization of debt issuance costs) Amortization of debt issuance costs - unsecured debt 22,425 12,201 479 319 Amortization of debt issuance costs - secured debt Total fixed rate interest expense 37,040 40,540 Total interest (5,765) 34,775 Less capitalized interest TOTAL INTEREST EXPENSE $ 19,245 16,907 700 384 37,850 40,553 (5,340) 35,213 3,180 (4,706) (221) (65) (810) (13) (425) (438) (1) Includes interest on the Company's unsecured bank credit facilities and unsecured debt with fixed interest rates per the debt agreements or effectively fixed interest rates due to interest rate swaps, as discussed in Note 13 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. EastGroup's variable rate interest expense increased by $797,000 for 2017 as compared to 2016 primarily due to increases in the Company's weighted average interest rate and average borrowings on its unsecured bank credit facilities as shown in the following table: Average borrowings on unsecured bank credit facilities - variable rate Weighted average variable interest rates (excluding amortization of facility fees and debt issuance costs) Years Ended December 31, 2017 2016 Increase (Decrease) (In thousands, except rates of interest) $ 114,751 106,352 8,399 2.07% 1.49% The Company's fixed rate interest expense decreased by $810,000 for 2017 as compared to 2016 as a result of the secured debt, fixed rate unsecured bank credit facilities and unsecured debt activity described below. Secured debt interest decreased by $4,706,000 in 2017 as compared to 2016 as a result of regularly scheduled principal payments and debt repayments.

The Company's interest expense from fixed rate unsecured bank credit facilities increased by $1,002,000 during 2017 as compared to 2016. In August 2016, EastGroup repaid (with no penalty) an $80 million unsecured term loan with an effectively fixed interest rate of 2.770% and an original maturity date of August 15, 2018. On the same day, the Company borrowed $80 million through its $300 million unsecured bank credit facility; the maturity date for the credit facility is July 30, 2019. The Company re-designated the interest rate swap that was previously applied to the $80 million unsecured term loan to the $80 million unsecured bank credit facility borrowing. The $80 million unsecured bank credit facility draw has an effectively fixed interest rate of 2.020% through the interest rate swap's maturity date of August 15, 2018. The Company's interest expense from unsecured debt increased by $3,180,000 during 2017 as compared to 2016 as a result of the Company's unsecured debt activity described below.

The loan, which has a maturity date of December 20, 2020, now has an effectively fixed interest rate of 3.452%. Interest costs during the period of construction of real estate properties are capitalized and offset against interest expense. Capitalized interest increased by $425,000 for 2017 as compared to 2016. Depreciation and amortization expense increased $5,939,000 for 2017 compared to 2016 primarily due to the operating properties acquired by the Company during 2016 and 2017 and the properties transferred from Development in 2016 and 2017, partially offset by operating properties sold in 2016 and 2017. 26 Gain, net of loss, on sales of real estate investments, which includes gains and losses on the sales of operating properties, decreased $20,315,000 for 2017 as compared to 2016.

In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360), Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, the Company would report a disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity in discontinued 27 operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results when the component or group of components meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale or when the component or group of components is disposed of by sale or other than by sale. In addition, the Company would provide additional disclosures about both discontinued operations and the disposal of an individually significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations presentation in the financial statements. EastGroup performs an analysis of properties sold to determine whether the sales qualify for discontinued operations presentation. The Company did not classify any properties as held for sale as of December 31, 2017 and 2016. The Company does not consider its sales in 2016 and 2017 to be disposals of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity representing a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on the entity's operations and financial results.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS EastGroup has evaluated all ASUs recently released by the FASB through the date the financial statements were issued and determined that the following ASUs apply to the Company. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The FASB issued further guidance in ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, that provides clarifying guidance in certain narrow areas and adds some practical expedients. ASU 2014-09 will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The effective date of ASU 2014-09 was extended by one year by ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date. The new standard was effective for the Company on January 1, 2018, and the Company is using the modified retrospective approach upon adoption. The Company has made significant progress in evaluating the effect of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures beginning with the Form 10-Q for the period ending March 31, 2018. The Company has completed its inventory of its sources of revenue and does not believe there will be a material financial statement impact or that its pattern of revenue recognition will be materially impacted by the adoption of ASU 2014-09. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,which requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes, requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset, and eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized costs on the balance sheet. EastGroup adopted ASU 2016-01 effective January 1, 2018. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of ASU 2016-01 will have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: (1) a lease liability, which is a lessee's obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (2) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee's right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. The Company is a lessee on a limited number of leases, including office and ground leases, and while the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will impact the Company's accounting for office and ground leases, the Company anticipates the impact will not be material to its overall financial condition and results of operations. Lessor accounting is largely unchanged under ASU 2016-02. The Company's primary revenue is rental income; as such, the Company is a lessor on a significant number of leases. The Company is continuing to evaluate the potential impacts of the ASU and believes it will continue to account for its leases in substantially the same manner. The most significant changes for the Company related to lessor accounting include bifurcating its revenue into lease and non-lease components and the new standard's narrow definition of initial direct costs for leases. The new definition will result in certain costs (primarily legal costs related to lease negotiations) being expensed rather than capitalized upon adoption of the new standard. Public business entities are required to apply the amendments in ASU 2016-02 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. EastGroup plans to adopt ASU 2016-02 effective January 1, 2019. The Company is continuing the process of evaluating and quantifying the effect that ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures beginning with the Form 10-Q for the period ending March 31, 2019. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The ASU is intended to improve the accounting for share-based payments and affects all organizations that issue share-based payment awards to their employees. Several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment awards are simplified with the ASU, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as equity or liabilities and classification on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years; early adoption is permitted. EastGroup 32 adopted ASU 2016-09 effective January 1, 2017. As a result, the Company elected to reverse compensation cost of any forfeited awards when they occur and will continue to classify the cash flows resulting from remitting cash to the tax authorities for the payment of taxes on the vesting of share-based payment awards as a financing activity on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. In addition, upon vesting of share-based payments, the Company will withhold up to the maximum individual statutory tax rate and classify the entire award as equity. The adoption of ASU 2016-09 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which addresses certain cash flow issues, including how debt prepayments or debt extinguishment costs and distributions received from equity method investees are presented. ASU 2016-15 is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, and the Company has adopted ASU 2016-15 effective January 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The ASU is intended to provide a new framework for determining whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. Under the new guidance, companies are required to utilize an initial screening test to determine whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets; if so, the set is not a business. The Company has determined that some of its real estate property acquisitions may be considered to be acquisitions of groups of similar identifiable assets; therefore, the acquisitions are not considered to be acquisitions of a business. EastGroup adopted ASU 2017-01 for transactions beginning on October 1, 2016. As a result, the Company has capitalized acquisition costs related to its 2017 and fourth quarter 2016 acquisitions as they were determined not to be acquisitions of a business. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Others (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment by eliminating the requirement of performing a hypothetical purchase price allocation to measure goodwill impairment. The Company adopted ASU 2017-04 effective January 1, 2017, and is applying the new guidance for goodwill impairment tests with measurement dates after January 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2017-04 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting, which clarifies what constitutes a modification of a share-based payment award. The ASU is intended to provide clarity and reduce both diversity in practice and cost and complexity when applying the guidance in Topic 718 to a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. ASU 2017-09 is effective for public entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2017-09 on January 1, 2018, and it does not anticipate that the adoption of ASU 2017-09 will have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations, as the Company does not expect to have any modifications to share-based payment awards. However, if the Company does have a modification to an award in the future, it will follow the guidance in ASU 2017-09. In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The ASU is intended to better align a company's financial reporting for hedging activities with the economic objectives of those activities. The transition method is a modified retrospective approach that will require the Company to recognize the cumulative effect of initially applying the ASU as an adjustment to Accumulated other comprehensive income with a corresponding adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year the entity adopts the ASU. The primary provision in the ASU that will require an adjustment to beginning retained earnings is the change in timing and income statement presentation for ineffectiveness related to cash flow and net investment hedges. As a result of the transition guidance in the ASU, cumulative ineffectiveness that has previously been recognized on cash flow and net investment hedges that are still outstanding and designated as of the date of adoption will be adjusted and removed from beginning retained earnings and placed in Accumulated other comprehensive income. ASU 2017-12 is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted; however, the Company plans to adopt ASU 2017-12 on January 1, 2019. While the Company continues to assess all potential impacts of ASU 2017-12, it does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. 33 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Net cash provided by operating activities was $155,014,000 for the year ended December 31, 2017. The primary other sources of cash were from borrowings on unsecured bank credit facilities; proceeds from common stock offerings; proceeds from unsecured debt; and net proceeds from sales of real estate investments and non-operating real estate. The Company distributed $86,725,000 in common stock dividends during 2017. Other primary uses of cash were for repayments on unsecured bank credit facilities and secured debt; development of properties; purchases of real estate; and capital improvements at various properties. Total debt at December 31, 2017 and 2016 is detailed below. The Company’s unsecured bank credit facilities and unsecured debt instruments have certain restrictive covenants, such as maintaining debt service coverage and leverage ratios and maintaining insurance coverage, and the Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants at December 31, 2017 and 2016. Unsecured bank credit facilities - variable rate, carrying amount Unsecured bank credit facilities - fixed rate, carrying amount (1) $ Unamortized debt issuance costs Unsecured bank credit facilities Unsecured debt - fixed rate, carrying amount (1) Unamortized debt issuance costs Unsecured debt Secured debt - fixed rate, carrying amount (1) Unamortized debt issuance costs Secured debt December 31, 2017 2016 (In thousands) 116,339 80,000 (630) 195,709 715,000 (1,939) 713,061 200,354 (842) 199,512 112,020 80,000 (1,030) 190,990 655,000 (2,162) 652,838 258,594 (1,089) 257,505 Total debt $ 1,108,282 1,101,333 (1) These loans have a fixed interest rate or an effectively fixed interest rate due to interest rate swaps. EastGroup has a $300 million unsecured revolving credit facility with a group of nine banks that matures in July 2019. The credit facility contains options for a one-year extension (at the Company's election) and a $150 million expansion (with agreement by all parties). The interest rate on each tranche is usually reset on a monthly basis and as of December 31, 2017, was LIBOR plus 100 basis points with an annual facility fee of 20 basis points. The margin and facility fee are subject to changes in the Company's credit ratings. The Company has designated an interest rate swap to an $80 million unsecured bank credit facility draw that effectively fixes the interest rate on the $80 million draw to 2.020% through the interest rate swap's maturity date of August 15, 2018. As of December 31, 2017, EastGroup had an additional $110,000,000 of variable rate borrowings on this unsecured bank credit facility with a weighted average interest rate of 2.528%. The Company has a standby letter of credit of $674,000 pledged on this facility. The Company also has a $35 million unsecured revolving credit facility that matures in July 2019. This credit facility automatically extends for one year if the extension option in the $300 million revolving credit facility is exercised. The interest rate is reset on a daily basis and as of December 31, 2017, was LIBOR plus 100 basis points with an annual facility fee of 20 basis points. The margin and facility fee are subject to changes in the Company's credit ratings. At December 31, 2017, the interest rate was 2.564% on a balance of $6,339,000. As market conditions permit, EastGroup issues equity and/or employs fixed-rate debt, including variable-rate debt that has been swapped to an effectively fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps, to replace the short-term bank borrowings. The Company believes its current operating cash flow and unsecured bank credit facilities provide the capacity to fund the operations of the Company. The Company also believes it can obtain debt financing and issue common and/or preferred equity. For future debt issuances, the Company intends to issue primarily unsecured fixed-rate debt, including variable-rate debt that has been swapped to an effectively fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps. The Company may also access the public debt market in the future as a means to raise capital. 34 In August 2017, EastGroup repaid (with no penalty) a mortgage loan with a balance of $45.1 million, an interest rate of 5.57% and an original maturity date of September 5, 2017. The loan was collateralized by 1.4 million square feet of operating properties. In December 2017, the Company closed $60 million of senior unsecured private placement notes with an insurance company. The notes have a seven-year term and a fixed interest rate of 3.46% with semi-annual interest payments. The notes will not be and have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. Also in December, the Company refinanced a $75 million unsecured term loan, resulting in a 30 basis point reduction in the loan's interest rate. The loan, which has a maturity date of December 20, 2020, now has an effectively fixed interest rate of 3.452%. The refinancing will provide a net annual savings to the Company of approximately $170,000. In connection with EastGroup's continuous equity program, the Company has entered into sales agency financing agreements with various sales agents under which the Company may issue and sell up to 10,000,000 shares of its common stock from time to time in "at the market" offerings as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933. The Company previously sold an aggregate of 3,598,660 shares of common stock under the sales agency financing agreements and, as of February 14, 2018, EastGroup may offer and sell an additional 6,401,340 shares of common stock through the sales agents. During 2017, the Company issued and sold 1,370,457 shares of common stock under its continuous equity program at an average price of $80.71 per share with gross proceeds to the Company of $110,606,000. The Company incurred offering-related costs of $1,399,000 during the year, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $109,207,000. Contractual Obligations EastGroup’s fixed, non-cancelable obligations as of December 31, 2017 were as follows: Unsecured Bank Credit Facilities (1) (2) Interest on Unsecured Bank Credit Facilities (3) Unsecured Debt (1) Interest on Unsecured Debt Secured Debt (1) Interest on Secured Debt Operating Lease Obligations: Office Leases Ground Leases Real Estate Property Obligations (4) Development Obligations (5) Tenant Improvements (6) Purchase Obligations Total Payments Due by Period Total Less Than 1 Year 1-3 Years 3-5 Years More Than 5 Years $ 196,339 8,905 715,000 120,729 200,354 26,467 1,864 13,534 2,402 29,024 13,231 3,368 $ 1,331,217 (In thousands) 196,339 3,523 180,000 40,986 64,665 13,264 706 1,522 — — — 162 501,167 — 5,382 50,000 24,139 11,314 10,116 349 761 2,402 29,024 13,231 3,206 149,924 — — 115,000 29,517 122,332 2,809 809 1,522 — — — — 271,989 — — 370,000 26,087 2,043 278 — 9,729 — — — — 408,137 (1) These amounts are included on the Consolidated Balance Sheets net of unamortized debt issuance costs. (2) The Company’s balances under its unsecured bank credit facilities change depending on the Company’s cash needs and, as such, both the principal amounts and the interest rates are subject to variability. At December 31, 2017, the weighted average interest rate was 2.530% on the $116,339,000 of variable-rate debt that matures in July 2019. Unsecured bank credit facilities also included $80,000,000 of debt with an effectively fixed interest rate of 2.020% due to an interest rate swap that matures on August 15, 2018. The $300 million unsecured credit facility has options for a one-year extension (at the Company's election) and a $150 million expansion (with agreement by all parties). The $35 million unsecured credit facility automatically extends for one year if the extension option in the $300 million revolving facility is exercised. As of December 31, 2017, the interest rate on the $300 million facility was LIBOR plus 100 basis points (weighted average interest rate of 2.528%) with an annual facility fee of 20 basis points, and the interest rate on the $35 million facility, which resets on a daily basis, was LIBOR plus 100 basis points (2.564%) with an annual facility fee of 20 basis points. The margin and facility fee are subject to changes in the Company's credit ratings. (3) Represents an estimate of interest due on the Company's unsecured bank credit facilities based on the outstanding unsecured credit facilities as of December 31, 2017 and interest rates and maturity dates on the facilities as of December 31, 2017 as discussed in note 2 above. (4) Represents commitments on real estate properties, except for tenant improvement obligations. (5) Represents commitments on properties under development, except for tenant improvement obligations. (6) Represents tenant improvement allowance obligations. 35 The Company anticipates that its current cash balance, operating cash flows, borrowings under its unsecured bank credit facilities, proceeds from new debt and/or proceeds from the issuance of equity instruments will be adequate for (i) operating and administrative expenses, (ii) normal repair and maintenance expenses at its properties, (iii) debt service obligations, (iv) maintaining compliance with its debt covenants, (v) distributions to stockholders, (vi) capital improvements, (vii) purchases of properties, (viii) development, and (ix) any other normal business activities of the Company, both in the short-term and long-term. INFLATION AND OTHER ECONOMIC CONSIDERATIONS Most of the Company's leases include scheduled rent increases. Additionally, most of the Company's leases require the tenants to pay their pro rata share of operating expenses, including real estate taxes, insurance and common area maintenance, thereby reducing the Company's exposure to increases in operating expenses resulting from inflation. In the event inflation causes increases in the Company’s general and administrative expenses or the level of interest rates, such increased costs would not be passed through to tenants and could adversely affect the Company’s results of operations. EastGroup's financial results are affected by general economic conditions in the markets in which the Company's properties are located. The state of the economy, or other adverse changes in general or local economic conditions, could result in the inability of some of the Company's existing tenants to make lease payments and may therefore increase bad debt expense. It may also impact the Company’s ability to (i) renew leases or re-lease space as leases expire, or (ii) lease development space. In addition, an economic downturn or recession could also lead to an increase in overall vacancy rates or a decline in rents the Company can charge to re-lease properties upon expiration of current leases. In all of these cases, EastGroup’s cash flows would be adversely affected. ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK. The Company is exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of its unsecured bank credit facilities and long-term debt maturities. This debt is used to maintain liquidity and fund capital expenditures and expansion of the Company’s real estate investment portfolio and operations. The Company’s objective for interest rate risk management is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower its overall borrowing costs. The Company has two variable rate unsecured bank credit facilities as discussed under Liquidity and Capital Resources. As market conditions permit, EastGroup issues equity and/or employs fixed-rate debt, including variable-rate debt that has been swapped to an effectively fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps, to replace the short-term bank borrowings. The Company's interest rate swaps are discussed in Note 13 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The table below presents the principal payments due and weighted average interest rates, which include the impact of interest rate swaps, for both the fixed-rate and variable-rate debt as of December 31, 2017. 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 Thereafter Total Fair Value Unsecured bank credit facilities - variable rate (in thousands) Weighted average interest rate Unsecured bank credit facilities - fixed rate (in thousands) Weighted average interest rate Unsecured debt - fixed rate (in thousands) Weighted average interest rate Secured debt - fixed rate (in thousands) Weighted average interest rate $ — 116,339 (1) — 2.53% (3) $ — 80,000 — 2.02% — — — — — — — — — — — — — 116,339 116,277 (2) — — — 2.53% 80,000 80,003 (4) 2.02% $50,000 75,000 105,000 40,000 75,000 370,000 715,000 703,871 (4) 3.91% 2.85% 3.55% 2.34% 3.03% 3.56% 3.38% $11,314 55,569 9,096 89,563 32,769 2,043 200,354 206,408 (4) 5.21% 7.01% 4.43% 4.55% 4.09% 3.85% 5.18% (1) The variable-rate unsecured bank credit facilities mature in July 2019 and as of December 31, 2017, have balances of $110,000,000 (excluding the $80,000,000 draw with an effectively fixed rate due to an interest rate swap, as shown in the table above) on the $300 million unsecured bank credit facility and $6,339,000 on the $35 million unsecured bank credit facility. (2) The fair value of the Company’s variable-rate debt is estimated by discounting expected cash flows at current market rates, excluding the effects of debt issuance costs. (3) Represents the weighted average interest rate for the Company's variable rate unsecured bank credit facilities as of December 31, 2017. (4) The fair value of the Company’s fixed-rate debt, including variable-rate debt that has been swapped to an effectively fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps, is estimated by discounting expected cash flows at the rates currently offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities, as advised by the Company’s bankers, excluding the effects of debt issuance costs. 36 As the table above incorporates only those exposures that existed as of December 31, 2017, it does not consider those exposures or positions that could arise after that date. If the weighted average interest rate on the variable-rate unsecured bank credit facilities, as shown above, changes by 10% or approximately 25 basis points, interest expense and cash flows would increase or decrease by approximately $294,000 annually. This does not include variable-rate debt that has been effectively fixed through the use of interest rate swaps. ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA. The Registrant's Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and its Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income, Changes in Equity and Cash Flows and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 and the Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm thereon are included under Item 15 of this report and are incorporated herein by reference.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE. None. ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. (i) Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2017, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the Company’s periodic SEC filings. (ii) Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. (a) Management's annual report on internal control over financial reporting. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). EastGroup’s Management Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting is set forth in Part IV, Item 15 of this Form 10-K on page 43 and is incorporated herein by reference. (b) Report of the independent registered public accounting firm. The report of KPMG LLP, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, on the Company's internal control over financial reporting is set forth in Part IV, Item 15 of this Form 10-K on page 44 and is incorporated herein by reference. (c) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the Company's fourth fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2017, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. 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, 2017, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and our report dated February 14, 2018 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Basis for Opinion These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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. (Signed) KPMG LLP We have served as the Company's auditor since 1970.

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, EastGroup conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The design of any system of internal control over financial reporting is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Based on EastGroup’s evaluation under the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013), management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2017. /s/ EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC. Ridgeland, Mississippi February 14, 2018 43 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM TO THE STOCKHOLDERS AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC.: Opinion on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting We have audited EastGroup Properties, Inc. and subsidiaries’ (the "Company") internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017, based on the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017, based on the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB"), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2017, and the related notes and financial statement schedules III and IV (collectively, the "consolidated financial statements"), and our report dated February 14, 2018 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. Basis for Opinion The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. 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 audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 (1) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (a) Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of EastGroup Properties, Inc. ("EastGroup" or "the Company"), its wholly owned subsidiaries and its investment in any joint ventures in which the Company has a controlling interest. At December 31, 2015, EastGroup had a controlling interest in two joint ventures, the 80% owned University Business Center and the 80% owned Castilian Research Center. During the second quarter of 2016, Castilian Research Center was sold, and the joint venture was subsequently terminated. At December 31, 2016, the Company had a controlling interest in one joint venture, the 80% owned University Business Center. During the fourth quarter of 2017, EastGroup closed the acquisition of the 20% noncontrolling interest in two of the four University Business Center buildings; the Company now owns 100% of University Business Center 125 and 175. As of December 31, 2017, EastGroup had an 80% controlling interest in University Business Center 120 and 130. The Company records 100% of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the buildings held in joint ventures with the noncontrolling interests provided for in accordance with the joint venture agreements. The equity method of accounting is used for the Company’s 50% undivided tenant-in-common interest in Industry Distribution Center II. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. (b) Income Taxes EastGroup, a Maryland corporation, has qualified as a real estate investment trust (REIT) under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code and intends to continue to qualify as such. To maintain its status as a REIT, the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its ordinary taxable income to its stockholders. If the Company has a capital gain, it has the option of (i) deferring recognition of the capital gain through a tax-deferred exchange, (ii) declaring and paying a capital gain dividend on any recognized net capital gain resulting in no corporate level tax, or (iii) retaining and paying corporate income tax on its net long-term capital gain, with the shareholders reporting their proportional share of the undistributed long-term capital gain and receiving a credit or refund of their share of the tax paid by the Company. The Company distributed all of its 2017, 2016 and 2015 taxable income to its stockholders. Accordingly, no significant provisions for income taxes were necessary. The following table summarizes the federal income tax treatment for all distributions by the Company for the years ended 2017, 2016 and 2015. Federal Income Tax Treatment of Share Distributions Common Share Distributions: Ordinary dividends Nondividend distributions Unrecaptured Section 1250 capital gain Other capital gain Total Common Share Distributions Years Ended December 31, 2017 2016 2015 $ $ 2.49146 0.02686 — 0.00168 2.52000 2.10494 0.05202 0.12872 0.15432 2.44000 2.24258 0.02774 0.06968 — 2.34000 EastGroup applies the principles of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740, Income Taxes, when evaluating and accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. With few exceptions, the Company’s 2013 and earlier tax years are closed for examination by U.S. federal, state and local tax authorities. In accordance with the provisions of ASC 740, the Company had no significant uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2017 and 2016. The Company’s income may differ for tax and financial reporting purposes principally because of (1) the timing of the deduction for the provision for possible losses and losses on investments, (2) the timing of the recognition of gains or losses from the sale of investments, (3) different depreciation methods and lives, (4) real estate properties having a different basis for tax and financial reporting purposes, (5) mortgage loans having a different basis for tax and financial reporting purposes, thereby producing different gains upon collection of these loans, and (6) differences in book and tax allowances and timing for stock-based compensation expense. 49 EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (c) Income Recognition Minimum rental income from real estate operations is recognized on a straight-line basis. The straight-line rent calculation on leases includes the effects of rent concessions and scheduled rent increases, and the calculated straight-line rent income is recognized over the lives of the individual leases. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts receivable, including straight- line rents receivable, based upon estimates determined by management. Management specifically analyzes aged receivables, customer credit-worthiness and current economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. Revenue is recognized on payments received from tenants for early terminations after all criteria have been met in accordance with ASC 840, Leases. The Company recognizes gains on sales of real estate in accordance with the principles set forth in ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment. Upon closing of real estate transactions, the provisions of ASC 360 require consideration for the transfer of rights of ownership to the purchaser, receipt of an adequate cash down payment from the purchaser, adequate continuing investment by the purchaser and no substantial continuing involvement by the Company. If the requirements for recognizing gains have not been met, the sale and related costs are recorded, but the gain is deferred and recognized by a method other than the full accrual method. The Company recognizes interest income on mortgage loans on the accrual method unless a significant uncertainty of collection exists. If a significant uncertainty exists, interest income is recognized as collected. If applicable, discounts on mortgage loans receivable are amortized over the lives of the loans using a method that does not differ materially from the interest method. The Company evaluates the collectibility of both interest and principal on each of its loans to determine whether the loans are impaired. A loan is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. When a loan is considered to be impaired, the amount of loss is calculated by comparing the recorded investment to the value determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at the loan’s effective interest rate or to the fair value of the underlying collateral (if the loan is collateralized) less costs to sell. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, there was no significant uncertainty of collection; therefore, interest income was recognized. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company determined that no allowance for collectibility of the mortgage loans receivable was necessary. (d) Real Estate Properties EastGroup has one reportable segment–industrial properties. These properties are concentrated in major Sunbelt markets of the United States, primarily in the states of Florida, Texas, Arizona, California and North Carolina, have similar economic characteristics and also meet the other criteria that permit the properties to be aggregated into one reportable segment. The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows (including estimated future expenditures necessary to substantially complete the asset) expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company did not identify any impairment charges which should be recorded. Depreciation of buildings and other improvements is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of generally 40 years for buildings and 3 to 15 years for improvements. Building improvements are capitalized, while maintenance and repair expenses are charged to expense as incurred. Significant renovations and improvements that improve or extend the useful life of the assets are capitalized. Depreciation expense was $69,010,000, $63,793,000 and $59,882,000 for 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. (e) Development For properties under development and properties acquired in the development stage, costs associated with development (i.e., land, construction costs, interest expense, property taxes and other direct and indirect costs associated with development) are aggregated into the total capitalized costs of the property. Included in these costs are management’s estimates for the portions of internal costs (primarily personnel costs) deemed related to such development activities. The internal costs are allocated to specific development properties based on development activity. As the property becomes occupied, depreciation commences on the occupied portion of the building, and costs are capitalized only for the portion of the building that remains vacant. When the property becomes 80% occupied or one year after completion of the shell construction (whichever comes first), capitalization of development costs, including interest expense, property taxes and internal personnel costs, ceases. The properties are then transferred to Real estate properties, and depreciation commences on the entire property (excluding the land). 50 EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Effective January 1, 2018, the Company is implementing an accounting policy change and will begin transferring properties from Development to Real estate properties at the earlier of 90% occupancy or one year after completion of the shell construction. (f) Real Estate Held for Sale The Company considers a real estate property to be held for sale when it meets the criteria established under ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, including when it is probable that the property will be sold within a year. Real estate properties held for sale are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less estimated costs to sell and are not depreciated while they are held for sale. In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360), Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, the Company would report a disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results when the component or group of components meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale or when the component or group of components is disposed of by sale or other than by sale. In addition, the Company would provide additional disclosures about both discontinued operations and the disposal of an individually significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations presentation in the financial statements. EastGroup performs an analysis of properties sold to determine whether the sales qualify for discontinued operations presentation. (g) Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities EastGroup applies ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, which requires all entities with derivative instruments to disclose information regarding how and why the entity uses derivative instruments and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect the entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. See Note 13 for a discussion of the Company's derivative instruments and hedging activities. (h) Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. (i) Amortization Debt origination costs are deferred and amortized over the term of each loan using the effective interest method. Amortization of debt issuance costs was $1,250,000, $1,534,000 and $1,336,000 for 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Amortization of facility fees was $670,000, $670,000 and $608,000 for 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Leasing costs are deferred and amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the lease. Leasing costs paid during the period are included in Changes in other assets and other liabilities in the Investing Activities section on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Leasing costs amortization expense was $10,329,000, $9,932,000 and $9,038,000 for 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Amortization expense for in-place lease intangibles is disclosed below in Real Estate Property Acquisitions and Acquired Intangibles. (j) Real Estate Property Acquisitions and Acquired Intangibles Upon acquisition of real estate properties, EastGroup applies the principles of ASC 805, Business Combinations. Prior to the Company's adoption of ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, effective October 1, 2016, acquisition-related costs were recognized as expenses in the periods in which the costs were incurred and the services were received. As discussed in Note 1(o), beginning with acquisitions after October 1, 2016, the Company follows the guidance in ASU 2017-01, which provides a new framework for determining whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. Under the new guidance, companies are required to utilize an initial screening test to determine whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets; if so, the set is not a business. EastGroup has determined that its real estate property acquisitions in 2017 and the fourth quarter of 2016 are considered to be acquisitions of groups of similar identifiable assets; therefore, the acquisitions are not considered to be acquisitions of a business. As a result, the Company has capitalized acquisition costs related to its 2017 and fourth quarter 2016 acquisitions. The FASB Codification provides guidance on how to properly determine the allocation of the purchase price among the individual components of both the tangible and intangible assets based on their respective fair values. Goodwill for business combinations is recorded when the purchase price exceeds the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired. Factors considered by management 51 EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS in allocating the cost of the properties acquired include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. The allocation to tangible assets (land, building and improvements) is based upon management’s determination of the value of the property as if it were vacant using discounted cash flow models. The Company determines whether any financing assumed is above or below market based upon comparison to similar financing terms for similar properties. The cost of the properties acquired may be adjusted based on indebtedness assumed from the seller that is determined to be above or below market rates. The purchase price is also allocated among the following categories of intangible assets: the above or below market component of in-place leases, the value of in-place leases, and the value of customer relationships. The value allocable to the above or below market component of an acquired in-place lease is determined based upon the present value (using a discount rate reflecting the risks associated with the acquired leases) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the lease over its remaining term, and (ii) management’s estimate of the amounts that would be paid using fair market rates over the remaining term of the lease. The amounts allocated to above and below market leases are included in Other assets and Other liabilities, respectively, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized to rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases. The total amount of intangible assets is further allocated to in-place lease values and customer relationship values based upon management’s assessment of their respective values. These intangible assets are included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized over the remaining term of the existing lease, or the anticipated life of the customer relationship, as applicable. Amortization of above and below market leases increased rental income by $529,000, $488,000 and $448,000 in 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Amortization expense for in-place lease intangibles was $4,535,000, $4,210,000 and $4,370,000 for 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Projected amortization of in-place lease intangibles for the next five years as of December 31, 2017 is as follows: Years Ending December 31, 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 $ (In thousands) 3,576 2,555 1,911 1,482 893 During 2017, the Company acquired the following operating properties: Shiloh 400, Broadmoor Commerce Park and Hurricane Shoals 1 & 2 in Atlanta and Southpark Corporate Center 5-7 in Austin. The Company also acquired one development stage property, Progress Center 1 & 2 in Atlanta. At the time of acquisition, Progress Center 1 & 2 was classified in the lease-up phase of development. The total cost for the properties acquired by the Company was $65,243,000, of which $51,539,000 was allocated to Real estate properties and $10,312,000 was allocated to Development. EastGroup allocated $11,281,000 of the total purchase price to land using third party land valuations for the Atlanta and Austin markets. The market values are considered to be Level 3 inputs as defined by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (see Note 18 for additional information on ASC 820). Intangibles associated with the purchase of real estate were allocated as follows: $3,662,000 to in-place lease intangibles and $115,000 to above market leases (included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets), and $385,000 to below market leases (included in Other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets). These costs are amortized over the remaining lives of the associated leases in place at the time of acquisition. During 2016, the Company acquired the following development-stage properties: Parc North in Ft. Worth (Dallas), Weston Commerce Park in Weston (South Florida), and Jones Corporate Park in Las Vegas. At the time of acquisition, the properties were classified as under construction or in the lease-up phase of development. Also in 2016, the Company acquired Flagler Center, a three-building business distribution complex in Jacksonville, Florida. The properties purchased in 2016 were acquired for a total cost of $112,158,000, of which $22,228,000 was allocated to Real estate properties and $84,490,000 was allocated to Development. EastGroup allocated $29,164,000 of the total purchase price to land using third party land valuations for the Dallas, South Florida, Las Vegas and Jacksonville markets. The market values are considered to be Level 3 inputs as defined by ASC 820. Intangibles associated with the purchase of real estate were allocated as follows: $5,941,000 to in-place lease intangibles, $393,000 to above market leases and $894,000 to below market leases. 52 EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS During 2015, the Company acquired Southpark Corporate Center and Springdale Business Center, both in Austin, Texas, for a total cost of $31,574,000, of which $28,648,000 was allocated to Real estate properties. The Company allocated $5,494,000 of the total purchase price to land using third party land valuations for the Austin market. The market values are considered to be Level 3 inputs as defined by ASC 820. Intangibles associated with the purchase of real estate were allocated as follows: $3,453,000 to in-place lease intangibles and $527,000 to below market leases. The Company periodically reviews the recoverability of goodwill (at least annually) and the recoverability of other intangibles (on a quarterly basis) for possible impairment. In management’s opinion, no impairment of goodwill and other intangibles existed at December 31, 2017 and 2016. (k) Stock-Based Compensation In May 2004, the stockholders of the Company approved the EastGroup Properties, Inc. 2004 Equity Incentive Plan ("the 2004 Plan"), which was further amended by the Board of Directors in September 2005 and December 2006. This plan authorized the issuance of common stock to employees in the form of options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, deferred stock units, performance shares, bonus stock or stock in lieu of cash compensation. In April 2013, the Board of Directors adopted the EastGroup Properties, Inc. 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Equity Plan”) upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee; the 2013 Equity Plan was approved by the Company's stockholders and became effective May 29, 2013. The 2013 Equity Plan was further amended by the Board of Directors in March 2017. The 2013 Equity Plan replaced the 2004 Plan and the 2005 Directors Equity Incentive Plan. Typically, the Company issues new shares to fulfill stock grants or upon the exercise of stock options. EastGroup applies the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, to account for its stock-based compensation plans. ASC 718 requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements and that the cost be measured on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. The cost for market-based awards and awards that only require service are expensed on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods. The cost for performance-based awards is determined using the graded vesting attribution method which recognizes each separate vesting portion of the award as a separate award on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. This method accelerates the expensing of the award compared to the straight-line method. The total compensation expense for service and performance based awards is based upon the fair market value of the shares on the grant date. The grant date fair value for awards that have been granted and are subject to a future market condition (total shareholder return) are determined using a simulation pricing model developed to specifically accommodate the unique features of the awards. During the restricted period for awards no longer subject to contingencies, the Company accrues dividends and holds the certificates for the shares; however, the employee can vote the shares. Share certificates and dividends are delivered to the employee as they vest. (l) Earnings Per Share The Company applies ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, which requires companies to present basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS). Basic EPS represents the amount of earnings for the period attributable to each share of common stock outstanding during the reporting period. The Company’s basic EPS is calculated by dividing Net Income Attributable to EastGroup Properties, Inc. Common Stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding does not include any potentially dilutive securities or any unvested restricted shares of common stock. These unvested restricted shares, although classified as issued and outstanding, are considered forfeitable until the restrictions lapse and will not be included in the basic EPS calculation until the shares are vested. Diluted EPS represents the amount of earnings for the period attributable to each share of common stock outstanding during the reporting period and to each share that would have been outstanding assuming the issuance of common shares for all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the reporting period. The Company calculates diluted EPS by dividing Net Income Attributable to EastGroup Properties, Inc. Common Stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of unvested restricted stock. The dilutive effect of unvested restricted stock is determined using the treasury stock method. (m) Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses 53 EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS during the reporting period and to disclose material contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. (n) Risks and Uncertainties The state of the overall economy can significantly impact the Company’s operational performance and thus impact its financial position. Should EastGroup experience a significant decline in operational performance, it may affect the Company’s ability to make distributions to its shareholders, service debt, or meet other financial obligations. (o) Recent Accounting Pronouncements EastGroup has evaluated all ASUs recently released by the FASB through the date the financial statements were issued and determined that the following ASUs apply to the Company. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The FASB issued further guidance in ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, that provides clarifying guidance in certain narrow areas and adds some practical expedients. ASU 2014-09 will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The effective date of ASU 2014-09 was extended by one year by ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date. The new standard was effective for the Company on January 1, 2018, and the Company is using the modified retrospective approach upon adoption. The Company has made significant progress in evaluating the effect of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures beginning with the Form 10-Q for the period ending March 31, 2018. The Company has completed its inventory of its sources of revenue and does not believe there will be a material financial statement impact or that its pattern of revenue recognition will be materially impacted by the adoption of ASU 2014-09. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,which requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes, requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset, and eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized costs on the balance sheet. EastGroup adopted ASU 2016-01 effective January 1, 2018. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of ASU 2016-01 will have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: (1) a lease liability, which is a lessee's obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and (2) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee's right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. The Company is a lessee on a limited number of leases, including office and ground leases, and while the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will impact the Company's accounting for office and ground leases, the Company anticipates the impact will not be material to its overall financial condition and results of operations. Lessor accounting is largely unchanged under ASU 2016-02. The Company's primary revenue is rental income; as such, the Company is a lessor on a significant number of leases. The Company is continuing to evaluate the potential impacts of the ASU and believes it will continue to account for its leases in substantially the same manner. The most significant changes for the Company related to lessor accounting include bifurcating its revenue into lease and non-lease components and the new standard's narrow definition of initial direct costs for leases. The new definition will result in certain costs (primarily legal costs related to lease negotiations) being expensed rather than capitalized upon adoption of the new standard. Public business entities are required to apply the amendments in ASU 2016-02 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. EastGroup plans to adopt ASU 2016-02 effective January 1, 2019. The Company is continuing the process of evaluating and quantifying the effect that ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures beginning with the Form 10-Q for the period ending March 31, 2019. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The ASU is intended to improve the accounting for share-based payments and affects all organizations that issue share-based payment awards to their employees. Several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment awards are simplified with the ASU, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as equity or liabilities and classification on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years; early adoption is permitted. EastGroup adopted ASU 2016-09 effective January 1, 2017. As a result, the Company elected to reverse compensation cost of any forfeited awards when they occur and will continue to classify the cash flows resulting from remitting cash to the tax authorities for the payment of taxes on the vesting of share-based payment awards as a financing activity on the Consolidated Statements of Cash 54 EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Flows. In addition, upon vesting of share-based payments, the Company will withhold up to the maximum individual statutory tax rate and classify the entire award as equity. The adoption of ASU 2016-09 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which addresses certain cash flow issues, including how debt prepayments or debt extinguishment costs and distributions received from equity method investees are presented. ASU 2016-15 is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, and the Company has adopted ASU 2016-15 effective January 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The ASU is intended to provide a new framework for determining whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. Under the new guidance, companies are required to utilize an initial screening test to determine whether substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets; if so, the set is not a business. The Company has determined that some of its real estate property acquisitions may be considered to be acquisitions of groups of similar identifiable assets; therefore, the acquisitions are not considered to be acquisitions of a business. EastGroup adopted ASU 2017-01 for transactions beginning on October 1, 2016. As a result, the Company has capitalized acquisition costs related to its 2017 and fourth quarter 2016 acquisitions as they were determined not to be acquisitions of a business. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Others (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies the measurement of goodwill impairment by eliminating the requirement of performing a hypothetical purchase price allocation to measure goodwill impairment. The Company adopted ASU 2017-04 effective January 1, 2017, and is applying the new guidance for goodwill impairment tests with measurement dates after January 1, 2017. The adoption of ASU 2017-04 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting, which clarifies what constitutes a modification of a share-based payment award. The ASU is intended to provide clarity and reduce both diversity in practice and cost and complexity when applying the guidance in Topic 718 to a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. ASU 2017-09 is effective for public entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2017-09 on January 1, 2018, and it does not anticipate that the adoption of ASU 2017-09 will have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations, as the Company does not expect to have any modifications to share-based payment awards. However, if the Company does have a modification to an award in the future, it will follow the guidance in ASU 2017-09. In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The ASU is intended to better align a company's financial reporting for hedging activities with the economic objectives of those activities. The transition method is a modified retrospective approach that will require the Company to recognize the cumulative effect of initially applying the ASU as an adjustment to Accumulated other comprehensive income with a corresponding adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year the entity adopts the ASU. The primary provision in the ASU that will require an adjustment to beginning retained earnings is the change in timing and income statement presentation for ineffectiveness related to cash flow and net investment hedges. As a result of the transition guidance in the ASU, cumulative ineffectiveness that has previously been recognized on cash flow and net investment hedges that are still outstanding and designated as of the date of adoption will be adjusted and removed from beginning retained earnings and placed in Accumulated other comprehensive income. ASU 2017-12 is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted; however, the Company plans to adopt ASU 2017-12 on January 1, 2019. While the Company continues to assess all potential impacts of ASU 2017-12, it does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. (p) Classification of Book Overdraft on Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows The Company classifies changes in book overdraft in which the bank has not advanced cash to the Company to cover outstanding checks as an operating activity. Such amounts are included in Accounts payable, accrued expenses and prepaid rent in the Operating Activities section on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. (q) Reclassifications Certain reclassifications have been made in the 2016 and 2015 consolidated financial statements to conform to the 2017 presentation. 55 EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (2) REAL ESTATE PROPERTIES The Company’s Real estate properties and Development at December 31, 2017 and 2016 were as follows: Real estate properties: Land Buildings and building improvements Tenant and other improvements Development Less accumulated depreciation December 31, 2017 2016 (In thousands) $ $ 345,424 1,587,130 402,905 242,014 2,577,473 (749,601) 1,827,872 308,931 1,435,309 368,833 293,908 2,406,981 (694,250) 1,712,731 EastGroup acquired operating properties during 2017, 2016 and 2015 as discussed in Note 1(j).

(11) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION The Company applies the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, to account for its stock-based compensation plans. ASC 718 requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements and that the cost be measured on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. Equity Incentive Plan In May 2004, the stockholders of the Company approved the EastGroup Properties, Inc. 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2004 Plan”) that authorized the issuance of up to 1,900,000 shares of common stock to employees in the form of options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, deferred stock units, performance shares, bonus stock or stock in lieu of cash compensation. The 2004 Plan was further amended by the Board of Directors in September 2005 and December 2006. In April 2013, the Board of Directors adopted the EastGroup Properties, Inc. 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Equity Plan”) upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee; the 2013 Equity Plan was approved by the Company's stockholders and became effective May 29, 2013. The 2013 Equity Plan was further amended by the Board of Directors in March 2017. The 2013 Equity Plan replaced the 2004 Plan and the 2005 Directors Equity Incentive Plan. The 2013 Equity Plan permits the grant of awards to employees and directors with respect to 2,000,000 shares of common stock. There were 1,671,981, 1,752,345 and 1,802,000 total shares available for grant under the 2013 Equity Plan as of December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Typically, the Company issues new shares to fulfill stock grants. Stock-based compensation cost for employees was $6,309,000, $5,184,000 and $7,891,000 for 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively, of which $1,458,000, $1,183,000 and $1,672,000 were capitalized as part of the Company’s development costs for the respective years. 64 EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Employee Equity Awards The Company's restricted stock program is designed to provide incentives for management to achieve goals established by the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors (the Committee). The awards act as a retention device, as they vest over time, allowing participants to benefit from dividends on shares as well as potential stock appreciation. Equity awards align management's interests with the long-term interests of shareholders. The vesting periods of the Company’s restricted stock plans vary, as determined by the Compensation Committee. Restricted stock is granted to executive officers subject to both continued service and the satisfaction of certain annual performance goals and multi-year market conditions as determined by the Compensation Committee. Restricted stock is granted to non-executive officers subject only to continued service. The cost for market-based awards and awards that only require service is amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods. The total compensation expense for service and performance based awards is based upon the fair market value of the shares on the grant date. In March 2017, the Committee evaluated the Company's performance compared to certain annual performance measures (primarily funds from operations (FFO) per share and total shareholder return) for the year ended December 31, 2016. Based on the evaluation, 36,571 shares were awarded to the Company’s executive officers at the grant date (March 2, 2017) fair value of $74.80 per share. These shares vested 20% on the date shares were determined and awarded and will vest 20% per year on January 1 in years 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021. The shares are being expensed on a straight-line basis over the remaining service period. Also in March 2017, the Committee evaluated the Company’s total shareholder return, both on an absolute basis for 2016 as well as on a relative basis compared to the NAREIT Equity Index, NAREIT Industrial Index and Russell 2000 Index for the five-year period ended December 31, 2016. Based on the evaluation, 33,289 shares were awarded to the Company’s executive officers at the grant date (March 2, 2017) fair value of $74.80 per share. These shares vested 25% on the date shares were determined and awarded and will vest 25% per year on January 1 in years 2018, 2019 and 2020. The shares are being expensed on a straight-line basis over the remaining service period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the shares issued to the Company’s former Chief Financial Officer under these plans became fully vested on the grant date of the awards in the first quarter of 2017. In the second quarter of 2017, the Committee approved an equity compensation plan for certain of its executive officers based upon certain annual performance measures for 2017, including FFO per share, same property net operating income change, general and administrative costs, and fixed charge coverage. During the first quarter of 2018, the Committee will measure the Company's performance for 2017 against bright-line tests established by the Committee on the grant date of May 10, 2017. The number of shares that may be earned for the achievement of the annual performance measures could range from zero to 21,096. These shares, which have a grant date fair value of $78.18, would vest 20% on the date shares are determined and 20% per year on each January 1 for the subsequent four years. On the grant date of May 10, 2017, the Company began recognizing expense for its estimate of the shares that may be earned pursuant to these awards; the shares are being expensed using the graded vesting attribution method which recognizes each separate vesting portion of the award as a separate award on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Also in the second quarter of 2017, the Committee approved an equity compensation plan for certain of its executive officers based upon the achievement of individual goals for each of the officers included in the plan. Any shares issued pursuant to the individual goals in this compensation plan will be determined by the Committee in its discretion and issued in the first quarter of 2018. The number of shares to be issued on the grant date for the achievement of individual goals could range from zero to 5,274. These shares would vest 20% on the date shares are determined and awarded and 20% per year on each January 1 for the subsequent four years. The Company will begin recognizing the expense for any shares awarded on the grant date in the first quarter of 2018, and the shares will be expensed on a straight-line basis over the remaining service period. Also in the second quarter of 2017, the Committee approved a long-term equity compensation plan for certain of the Company’s executive officers that includes three components based on total shareholder return and one component based only on continued service as of the vesting dates. The three long-term equity compensation plan components based on total shareholder return are subject to bright-line tests that will compare the Company's total shareholder return to the NAREIT Equity Index and to the Company's industrial REIT peer group. The first plan will measure the bright-line tests over the one-year period ending December 31, 2017. During the first quarter of 2018, the Committee will measure the Company's performance for the one-year period against bright-line tests established by the Committee on the grant date of May 10, 2017. The number of shares to be earned on the measurement date could range from zero to 4,730. These shares would vest 100% on the date the earned shares are determined. On the grant date of May 10, 2017, the Company began recognizing expense for this plan based on the grant date fair value of the awards which was determined using a simulation pricing model developed to specifically accommodate the unique features of the award. 65 EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The second plan will measure the bright-line tests over the two-year period ending December 31, 2018. During the first quarter of 2019, the Committee will measure the Company's performance for the two-year period against bright-line tests established by the Committee on the grant date of May 10, 2017. The number of shares to be earned on the measurement date could range from zero to 9,460. These shares would vest 100% on the date the earned shares are determined. On the grant date of May 10, 2017, the Company began recognizing expense for this plan based on the grant date fair value of the awards which was determined using a simulation pricing model developed to specifically accommodate the unique features of the award. The third plan will measure the bright-line tests over the three-year period ending December 31, 2019. During the first quarter of 2020, the Committee will measure the Company's performance for the three-year period against bright-line tests established by the Committee on the grant date of May 10, 2017. The number of shares to be earned on the measurement date could range from zero to 18,917. These shares would vest 75% on the date the earned shares are determined in the first quarter of 2020 and 25% on January 1, 2021. On the grant date of May 10, 2017, the Company began recognizing expense for this plan based on the grant date fair value of the awards which was determined using a simulation pricing model developed to specifically accommodate the unique features of the award. The component of the long-term equity compensation plan based only on continued service as of the vesting dates was awarded on May 10, 2017. On that date, 5,406 shares were granted to certain executive officers subject only to continued service as of the vesting dates. These shares, which have a grant date fair value of $78.18 per share, will vest 25% in the first quarter of 2018 and 25% on January 1 in years 2019, 2020 and 2021. The shares are being expensed on a straight-line basis over the remaining service period. Also during the second quarter of 2017, 5,169 shares were granted to certain executive officers subject only to continued service as of the vesting dates. These shares, which have a weighted average grant date fair value of $81.27 per share, vested 20% on January 1, 2018, and will vest 20% per year on January 1 in years 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022. The shares are being expensed on a straight-line basis over the remaining service period. Also during the second quarter of 2017, 12,850 shares were granted to certain non-executive officers subject only to continued service as of the vesting dates. These shares, which have a grant date fair value of $84.57 per share, vested 20% on January 1, 2018, and will vest 20% per year on January 1 in years 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022. The shares are being expensed on a straight- line basis over the remaining service period. During the restricted period for awards no longer subject to contingencies, the Company accrues dividends and holds the certificates for the shares; however, the employee can vote the shares. For shares subject to contingencies, dividends are accrued based upon the number of shares expected to be awarded. Share certificates and dividends are delivered to the employee as they vest. As of December 31, 2017, there was $5,988,000 of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock compensation for employees and directors that is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.7 years. Following is a summary of the total restricted shares granted, forfeited and delivered (vested) to employees with the related weighted average grant date fair value share prices for 2017, 2016 and 2015. Of the shares that vested in 2017, 2016 and 2015, 33,695 shares, 57,316 shares and 32,409 shares, respectively, were withheld by the Company to satisfy the tax obligations for those employees who elected this option as permitted under the applicable equity plan. As of the grant date, the fair value of shares that were granted during 2017, 2016 and 2015 was $7,155,000, $4,736,000 and $6,145,000, respectively.

The Board of Directors has adopted a policy under the 2013 Equity Plan pursuant to which awards will be made to non-employee Directors. The current policy provides that the Company shall automatically award an annual retainer share award to each non- employee Director who has been elected or reelected as a member of the Board of Directors at the Annual Meeting. The number of shares shall be equal to $80,000 divided by the fair market value of a share on the date of such election. If a non-employee Director is elected or appointed to the Board of Directors other than at an Annual Meeting of the Company, the annual retainer share award shall be pro rated. The policy also provides that each new non-employee Director appointed or elected will receive an automatic award of restricted shares of Common Stock on the effective date of election or appointment equal to $25,000 divided by the fair market value of the Company's Common Stock on such date. These restricted shares will vest over a four-year period upon the performance of future service as a Director, subject to certain exceptions. Directors were issued 8,881 shares, 10,072 shares and 9,373 shares of common stock as annual retainer awards for 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. During the third quarter of 2017, 282 shares were granted to a newly elected non-employee Director subject only to continued service as of the vesting date. The shares, which have a grant date fair value of $88.86 per share, will vest 25% per year on September 8 in years 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021. The shares are being expensed on a straight-line basis over the remaining service period. During 2013, 417 shares were granted to a newly elected non-employee Director subject only to continued service as of the vesting date. The shares, which have a grant date fair value of $59.97 per share, vested 25% on each of December 6, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017. As of the vesting date, the fair value of shares that vested during 2017, 2016 and 2015 was $9,000, $8,000 and $6,000, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense for directors was $670,000, $589,000 and $514,000 for 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (13) DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risk, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its debt funding and, to a limited extent, the use of derivative instruments. Specifically, the Company has entered into derivative instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company's derivative instruments, described below, are used to manage differences in the amount, timing and duration of the Company's known or expected cash payments principally related to certain of the Company's borrowings. The Company's objective in using interest rate derivatives is to change variable interest rates to fixed interest rates by using interest rate swaps. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. As of December 31, 2017, EastGroup had seven interest rate swaps outstanding, all of which are used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with unsecured loans. All of the Company's interest rate swaps convert the related loans' LIBOR rate components to effectively fixed interest rates, and the Company has concluded that each of the hedging relationships is highly effective. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges is recorded in Other comprehensive income (loss) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings through interest expense as interest payments are made in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives, which is immaterial for the periods reported, is recognized directly in earnings (included in Other on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income). Amounts reported in Other comprehensive income (loss) related to derivatives will be reclassified to Interest expense as interest payments are made or received on the Company's variable-rate debt. The Company estimates the swap interest receipts will be $617,000 over the next twelve months. These receipts approximate the expected cash interest receipts due from counterparties for the swaps. Since the interest payments and receipts on the swaps in combination with the associated debt have been effectively fixed, this estimate is not in addition to the Company's total expected combined interest payments or expense for the next twelve months. The Company's valuation methodology for over-the-counter (“OTC”) derivatives is to discount cash flows based on Overnight Index Swap (“OIS”) rates. Uncollateralized or partially-collateralized trades are discounted at OIS, but include appropriate economic adjustments for funding costs (i.e., a LIBOR-OIS basis adjustment to approximate uncollateralized cost of funds) and credit risk. The Company calculates its derivative values using mid-market prices. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company had the following outstanding interest rate derivatives that are designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk: Interest Rate Derivative Notional Amount as of December 31, 2017 Notional Amount as of December 31, 2016 (In thousands) Interest Rate Swap Interest Rate Swap Interest Rate Swap Interest Rate Swap Interest Rate Swap Interest Rate Swap Interest Rate Swap $80,000 $75,000 $75,000 $65,000 $60,000 $40,000 $15,000 $80,000 $75,000 $75,000 $65,000 $60,000 $40,000 $15,000 The table below presents the fair value of the Company's derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2017 and 2016.

Derivative financial agreements expose the Company to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparties under the terms of the interest rate hedge agreements. The Company believes it minimizes the credit risk by transacting with financial institutions the Company regards as credit-worthy. The Company has an agreement with its derivative counterparties containing a provision stating that the Company could be declared in default on its derivative obligations if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender. As of December 31, 2017, the fair value of derivatives in an asset position related to these agreements was $6,034,000, and the fair value of derivatives in a liability position related to these agreements was $695,000. As of December 31, 2017, the Company has not posted any collateral related to these arrangements. If the Company had breached any of the contractual provisions of the derivative contract, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at their termination value. The swap termination value of derivatives in an asset position was an asset in the amount of $6,084,000, and the swap termination value of derivatives in a liability position was a liability in the amount of $717,000. 69 EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (16) DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN EastGroup maintains a 401(k) plan for its employees. The Company makes matching contributions of 50% of the employee’s contribution (limited to 10% of compensation as defined by the plan) and may also make annual discretionary contributions. The Company’s total expense for this plan was $672,000, $675,000 and $585,000 for 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. (17) LEGAL MATTERS The Company is not presently involved in any material litigation nor, to its knowledge, is any material litigation threatened against the Company or its properties, other than routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business and for which the Company is adequately insured. (18) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also provides guidance for using fair value to measure financial assets and liabilities. The Codification requires disclosure of the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall, including measurements using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1), quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active (Level 2), and significant valuation assumptions that are not readily observable in the market (Level 3). The following table presents the carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments in accordance with ASC 820 at December 31, 2017 and 2016. Financial Assets: Cash and cash equivalents Mortgage loans receivable Interest rate swap assets Financial Liabilities: Unsecured bank credit facilities - variable rate (2) Unsecured bank credit facilities - fixed rate (2) Unsecured debt (2) Secured debt (2) Interest rate swap liabilities December 31, 2017 2016 Carrying Amount (1) Fair Value Carrying Amount (1) Fair Value (In thousands) $ 16 4,581 6,034 116,339 80,000 715,000 200,354 695 16 4,569 6,034 116,277 80,003 703,871 206,408 695 522 4,752 4,546 112,020 80,000 655,000 258,594 2,578 522 4,747 4,546 111,923 79,998 623,147 266,585 2,578 (1) Carrying amounts shown in the table are included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets under the indicated captions, except as indicated in the notes below. (2) Carrying amounts and fair values shown in the table exclude debt issuance costs (see Notes 6 and 7 for additional information). The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments: Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments. Mortgage loans receivable (included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets): The fair value is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities (Level 2 input). Interest rate swap assets (included in Other assets on the Consolidated Balances Sheets): The instruments are recorded at fair value based on models using inputs, such as interest rate yield curves, LIBOR swap curves and OIS curves, observable for substantially the full term of the contract (Level 2 input). See Note 13 for additional information on the Company's interest rate swaps. 71 EASTGROUP PROPERTIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Unsecured bank credit facilities: The fair value of the Company’s unsecured bank credit facilities is estimated by discounting expected cash flows at current market rates (Level 2 input), excluding the effects of debt issuance costs. Unsecured debt: The fair value of the Company’s unsecured debt is estimated by discounting expected cash flows at the rates currently offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities, as advised by the Company’s bankers (Level 2 input), excluding the effects of debt issuance costs. Secured debt: The fair value of the Company’s secured debt is estimated by discounting expected cash flows at the rates currently offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities, as advised by the Company’s bankers (Level 2 input), excluding the effects of debt issuance costs. Interest rate swap liabilities (included in Other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets): The instruments are recorded at fair value based on models using inputs, such as interest rate yield curves, LIBOR swap curves and OIS curves, observable for substantially the full term of the contract (Level 2 input). See Note 13 for additional information on the Company's interest rate swaps. (19) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On January 26, 2018, EastGroup closed the sale of World Houston 18, a 33,000 square foot, non-EastGroup developed, single- tenant building in Houston, for $2.5 million. The transaction generated a gain on sale which will be recognized in the first quarter of 2018. Subsequent to December 31, 2017, the Company executed a commitment letter for $60 million of senior unsecured private placement notes with an insurance company. The notes, which are expected to close in April 2018, have a 10-year term and a fixed interest rate of 3.93% with semi-annual interest payments. The notes will not be and have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from
