1.	ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Business and Organization

Acadia Realty Trust (the "Trust") and subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") is a fully-integrated equity real estate investment trust ("REIT") focused on the ownership, acquisition, redevelopment and management of high-quality retail properties located primarily in high-barrier-to-entry, supply-constrained, densely-populated metropolitan areas in the United States.

All of the Company's assets are held by, and all of its operations are conducted through, Acadia Realty Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership") and entities in which the Operating Partnership owns an interest. As of March 31, 2016, the Trust controlled approximately 94% of the Operating Partnership as the sole general partner. As the general partner, the Trust is entitled to share, in proportion to its percentage interest, in the cash distributions and profits and losses of the Operating Partnership. The limited partners primarily represent entities or individuals that contributed their interests in certain properties or entities to the Operating Partnership in exchange for common or preferred units of limited partnership interest ("Common OP Units" or "Preferred OP Units") and employees who have been awarded restricted OP units ("LTIP Units") as long-term incentive compensation (Note 13). Limited partners holding Common OP Units are generally entitled to exchange their units on a one-for-one basis for common shares of beneficial interest of the Trust ("Common Shares").

As of March 31, 2016, the Company has ownership interests in 92 properties within its core portfolio, which consist of those properties either wholly owned, or partially owned through joint venture interests, by the Operating Partnership, or subsidiaries thereof, not including those properties owned through its opportunity funds (the "Core Portfolio"). The Company also has ownership interests in 59 properties within its opportunity funds, Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund II, LLC ("Fund II"), Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund III LLC ("Fund III") and Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund IV LLC ("Fund IV" and together with Funds II and III, the "Funds"). The 151 Core Portfolio and Fund properties consist of commercial properties, which are primarily high-quality urban and/or street retail properties, community shopping centers and mixed-use properties with a retail component. The Company and Fund II also include investments in operating companies through Acadia Mervyn Investors I, LLC ("Mervyns I"), Acadia Mervyn Investors II, LLC ("Mervyns II") and, in certain instances, directly through Fund II, all on a non-recourse basis. These investments comprise and are referred to as the Company's Retailer Controlled Property Initiative ("RCP Venture").

The Operating Partnership is the sole general partner or managing member of the Funds, Mervyns I and Mervyns II and earns fees or priority distributions for asset management, property management, construction, redevelopment, leasing and legal services. Cash from the Funds and RCP Venture is distributed pro-rata to the respective partners and members (including the Operating Partnership) until each receives a certain cumulative return ("Preferred Return"), and the return of all capital contributions. Thereafter, remaining cash flow is distributed 20% to the Operating Partnership ("Promote") and 80% to the partners or members (including the Operating Partnership).

Following is a table summarizing the general terms and the Operating Partnership's equity interests in the Funds and Mervyns I and II:



Entity	Formation Date	Operating Partnership Share of Capital	Fund Size	Capital Called as of March 31, 2016 (4)	Unfunded Commitment	Equity Interest Held By Operating Partnership	Preferred Return	Total Distributions as of March 31, 2016 (4)
Mervyns I (1)	9/2001	22.22%	$90.0	$86.6	$—	37.78%	9%	$194.5
Fund II and Mervyns II (2)	6/2004	28.33%	300.0	300.0	47.1	28.33%	8%	131.6
Fund III (3)	5/2007	24.54%	502.5	387.5	62.5	39.63%	6%	497.7

1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)

Notes:

(1) Mervyns I was originally formed in conjunction with Acadia Strategic Opportunity Fund, LP ("Fund I"). Fund I was liquidated and dissolved as of December 31, 2015. The above table reflects the combined activity of Fund I and Mervyns I. Fund I and Mervyns I have returned all capital and preferred return. The Operating Partnership is entitled to a Promote on all future cash distributions from Mervyns I.

(2) During 2013, a distribution of $47.1 million was made to the Fund II investors, including the Operating Partnership. This amount is subject to recontribution to Fund II until December 2016, if needed to fund the on-going development and construction of existing projects.

(3) Fund III has returned all capital and preferred return. The Operating Partnership is now entitled to a Promote on all future cash distributions.

(4) Represents the total for the Funds, including the Operating Partnership and noncontrolling interests' shares.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of the Company and its investments in entities in which the Company is presumed to have control in accordance with the consolidation guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"). Investments in entities for which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence but does not have financial or operating control are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the Company's share of the net earnings (or losses) of entities accounted for under the equity method are included in consolidated net income under the caption, Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Affiliates. Investments in entities for which the Company does not have the ability to exercise any influence are accounted for under the cost method.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016. The information furnished in the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflects all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the aforementioned consolidated financial statements for the interim periods. Such adjustments consisted of normal recurring items. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on February 19, 2016.

Real Estate

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment when there is an event or change in circumstances that indicates that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company measures and records impairment losses and reduces the carrying value of properties when indicators of impairment are present and the expected undiscounted cash flows related to those properties are less than their carrying amounts. In cases where the Company does not expect to recover its carrying costs on properties held for use, the Company reduces its carrying cost to fair value, and for properties held-for-sale, the Company reduces its carrying value to the fair value less costs to dispose. During the quarter ended June 30, 2015, as a result of the loss of a key anchor tenant, one of the properties in the Company's Brandywine Portfolio, in which an unaffiliated third party has a 77.78% noncontrolling interest, did not generate sufficient cash flow to meet the full debt service requirements leading to a default on the mortgage loan. Management performed an analysis and determined that the carrying amount of this property was not recoverable. Accordingly, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $5.0 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2015. The Operating Partnership's share of this charge, net of the noncontrolling interest, was $1.1 million. The property is collateral for $26.3 million of non-recourse mortgage debt which matures July 1, 2016. Management does not believe that the carrying values of any of its other properties are impaired as of March 31, 2016.

1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

During February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-02, "Leases." ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted and shall be applied retrospectively. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

On January 1, 2016, the Company adopted ASU No. 2015-02, "Consolidation - Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis," which modified the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are variable interest entities ("VIE's"), particularly those with fee arrangements and related party relationships. There were no entities qualifying under the scope of the revised guidance that were consolidated as a result of the adoption. Accordingly, the adoption of ASU 2015-02 had no impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

2. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

Basic earnings per Common Share is computed by dividing net income attributable to Common Shareholders by the weighted average Common Shares outstanding. At March 31, 2016, the Company has unvested LTIP Units (Note 13) which provide for non-forfeitable rights to dividend equivalent payments. Accordingly, these unvested LTIP Units are considered participating securities and are included in the computation of basic earnings per Common Share pursuant to the two-class method.

Diluted earnings per Common Share reflects the potential dilution of the conversion of obligations and the assumed exercises of securities including the effects of restricted share unit ("Restricted Share Units") and share option awards issued under the Company's Share Incentive Plans (Note 13). The effect of the assumed conversion of 188 Series A Preferred OP Units and 141,593 Series C Preferred OP Units into an aggregate 428,121 and 25,067 Common Shares, for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015, respectively, would be dilutive and therefore are included in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

The effect of the conversion of Common OP Units is not reflected in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share, as they are exchangeable for Common Shares on a one-for-one basis. The income allocable to such units is allocated on this same basis and reflected as noncontrolling interests in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As such, the assumed conversion of these units would have no net impact on the determination of diluted earnings per share.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the periods indicated:

Funds

RCP Venture

The Funds, together with two unaffiliated partners formed an investment group, the RCP Venture, for the purpose of making investments in surplus or underutilized properties owned by retailers and, in some instances, the retailers' operating company. The RCP Venture is neither a single entity nor a specific investment and the Company has no control or rights with respect to the formation and operation of these investments. The Company has made these investments through its subsidiaries, Mervyns I, Mervyns II and Fund II, (together the "Acadia Investors"), all on a non-recourse basis. Through March 31, 2016, the Acadia Investors have made investments in Mervyns Department Stores ("Mervyns") and Albertsons including additional investments in locations that are separate from these original investments ("Add-On Investments"). Additionally, they have invested in Shopko, Marsh and Rex Stores Corporation (collectively "Other RCP Investments"). The Company accounts for its investments in Mervyns and Albertsons on the equity method as it has the ability to exercise significant influence, but does not have any rights with respect to financial or operating control. The Company accounts for its investments in its Add-On Investments and Other RCP Investments on the cost method as it does not have any influence over such entities' operating and financial policies nor any rights with respect to the control and operation of these entities. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company received distributions from its RCP Venture of $0.1 million, of which the Operating Partnership's aggregate share was $0.02 million.

The following table summarizes activity related to the RCP Venture investments from inception through March 31, 2016:

Other Fund Investments

The unaffiliated partners in Fund III's investments in Arundel Plaza as well as Fund IV's investments in 1701 Belmont Avenue, 2819 Kennedy Boulevard, Promenade at Manassas, Eden Square and the Broughton Street Portfolio, maintain control over these entities. The Company accounts for these investments under the equity method as it has the ability to exercise significant influence, but does not have any rights with respect to financial or operating control.

Self-Storage Management, a Fund III investment, was determined to be a variable interest entity. Management has evaluated the applicability of ASC Topic 810 to this joint venture and determined that the Company is not the primary beneficiary and, therefore, consolidation of this venture is not required. The Company accounts for this investment using the equity method of accounting.

During January 2016, Fund III completed the disposition of a 65% interest in Cortlandt Town Center for a sales price of $107.3 million. The Company now accounts for this investment under the equity method as it has the ability to exercise significant influence, but does not have any rights with respect to financial or operating control.

6.	STRUCTURED FINANCING PORTFOLIO (continued)

The Company monitors the credit quality of its notes receivable on an ongoing basis and considers indicators of credit quality such as loan payment activity, the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral, the seniority of the Company's loan in relation to other debt secured by the collateral and the prospects of the borrower. As of March 31, 2016, the Company held one non-performing note.


7.	DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

As of March 31, 2016, the Company's derivative financial instruments consisted of 16 interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional value of $305.7 million, which effectively fix the London Inter-Bank Offer Rate ("LIBOR") at rates ranging from 1.3% to 3.8% and mature between July 2018 and March 2025. The Company also has one derivative financial instrument with a notional value of $29.5 million which caps LIBOR at 4.0% and matures April 2018. The fair value of these derivative instruments that represent liabilities are included in other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and totaled $12.4 million and $5.9 million at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. The fair value of these derivative instruments representing assets are included in prepaid expenses and other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and totaled $0.8 million at December 31, 2015. The notional value does not represent exposure to credit, interest rate, or market risks.

These derivative instruments have been designated as cash flow hedges and hedge the future cash outflows of variable-rate interest payments on mortgage and other debt. Such instruments are reported at their fair values as stated above. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, unrealized losses totaling $11.5 million and $4.5 million, respectively, were reflected in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

10. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The FASB's fair value measurements and disclosure guidance requires the valuation of certain of the Company's financial assets and liabilities, based on a three-level fair value hierarchy. Market value assumptions obtained from sources independent of the Company are observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy, and the Company's own assumptions about market value assumptions are unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.

The following table presents the Company’s fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2016:



(dollars in thousands)	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Liabilities
Derivative financial instruments (Note 7)	$	—	$	12,450	$	—

In addition to items that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company also has assets and liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. As these assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, they are not included in the table above. Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations as well as any assets that have been impaired (Note 4).

Financial Instruments

Certain of the Company’s assets and liabilities meet the definition of financial instruments. Except as disclosed below, the carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate their fair values.

The Company has determined the estimated fair values of the following financial instruments within Level 2 of the hierarchy by discounting future cash flows utilizing a discount rate equivalent to the rate at which similar financial instruments would be originated at the reporting date:



(dollars in thousands)	March 31, 2016				December 31, 2015
	Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Estimated Fair Value
Notes receivable and preferred equity investments, net	$	154,679	$	154,679	$	147,188	$	147,188

11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company earned property management fees, construction, legal and leasing fees from its investments in unconsolidated affiliates totaling $0.1 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

12. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company has three reportable segments: Core Portfolio, Funds and Structured Financing Portfolio. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates property performance primarily based on net operating income before depreciation, amortization and certain nonrecurring items. Investments in the Core Portfolio are typically held long-term. Given the contemplated finite life of the Funds, these investments are typically held for shorter terms. Fees earned by the Company as the general partner/managing member of the Funds are eliminated in the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Structured Financing Portfolio represents the Company's investments in notes receivable and preferred equity. The following tables set forth certain segment information for the Company, as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, and does not include unconsolidated affiliates:

The total value of the above Restricted Share Units and LTIP Units as of the grant date was $10.4 million, of which $1.9 million was recognized as compensation expense in 2015, and $8.5 million will be recognized as compensation expense over the vesting period. Compensation expense of $0.5 million has been recognized in the accompanying consolidated statements of income related to these awards for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Total long-term incentive compensation expense, including the expense related to the above-mentioned plans, was $1.9 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

In addition, members of the Board of Trustees have been issued units under the Share Incentive Plan. Total trustee fee expense related to these issuances was $0.2 million for each of the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

In 2009, the Company adopted the Long Term Investment Alignment Program (the "Program") pursuant to which the Company may grant awards to employees, entitling them to receive up to 25% of any potential future payments of Promote to the Operating Partnership from Funds III and IV. The Company has awarded units to employees representing 25.0% of the potential Promote payments from Fund III to the Operating Partnership and 9.3% of the potential Promote payments from Fund IV to the Operating Partnership. Payments to senior executives under the Program require further Board approval at the time any potential payments are due pursuant to these grants. Compensation relating to these awards will be recognized in each reporting period in which Board approval is granted.

13. LONG-TERM INCENTIVE COMPENSATION (continued)

As payments to other employees are not subject to further Board approval, compensation relating to these awards will be recorded based on the change in the estimated fair value at each reporting period in accordance with ASC Topic 718, "Compensation - Stock Compensation."

During the three months ended March 31, 2016, compensation expense of $1.5 million was recognized related to the Program in connection with Fund III.

The awards in connection with Fund IV were determined to have no value as of March 31, 2016.

14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

During April 2016, the Company entered into a forward sale and an underwritten public offering of 3.6 million Common Shares, which, if settled in Common Shares, will result in gross proceeds of approximately $125.0 million, before any underwriting discount and offering expenses. The forward sale will settle on one or more dates occurring no later than approximately 12 months after the date of the offering.

During April 2016, Fund III completed the disposition of Heritage Shops in Chicago, Illinois for a sales price of $46.5 million.

During April 2016, the Company borrowed $130.0 million under its unsecured credit facility, and repaid $140.0 million of secured debt that was scheduled to mature July 1, 2016. Additionally, the Company received repayment on a note receivable with accrued interest to an affiliated third party of $42.7 million that was scheduled to mature November 9, 2020 and issued a new note for $153.4 million, which is secured by the affiliates interest in the related property, bears interest at 8.1% and matures April 30, 2019.

OVERVIEW

Our primary business objective is to acquire and manage commercial retail properties that will provide cash for distributions to shareholders while also creating the potential for capital appreciation to enhance investor returns. We focus on the following fundamentals to achieve this objective:

•

Own and operate a Core Portfolio of high-quality retail properties located primarily in high-barrier-to-entry, densely-populated metropolitan areas. Our goal is to create value through accretive redevelopment and re-tenanting activities within our existing portfolio and grow this platform through the acquisition of high-quality assets that have the long-term potential to outperform the asset class.


•	Generate additional growth through our Funds in which we co-invest with high-quality institutional investors. Our Fund strategy focuses on opportunistic yet disciplined acquisition with high inherent opportunity for the creation of additional value, execution on this opportunity and the realization of value through the sale of these assets. In connection with this strategy, we focus on:


◦	value-add investments in street retail properties, located in established and "next generation" submarkets, with re-tenanting or repositioning opportunities,


◦	opportunistic acquisitions of well-located real estate anchored by distressed retailers, and


◦	other opportunistic acquisitions, which vary based on market conditions and may include high-yield acquisitions and purchases of distressed debt.


•	Some of these investments have also included, and may in the future include, joint ventures with private equity investors for the purpose of making investments in operating retailers with significant embedded value in their real estate assets.


•	Maintain a strong and flexible balance sheet through conservative financial practices while ensuring access to sufficient capital to fund future growth.

As of March 31, 2016, we operated 151 properties, which we own or have an ownership interest in, within our Core Portfolio and Funds. These properties primarily consist of high-quality retail properties located in key street and urban retail corridors as well as suburban locations within high-barrier-to-entry, densely-populated metropolitan areas in the United States.


•	Core Portfolio

◦

Our Core Portfolio consists of those properties we either entirely own, or partially own in joint ventures, through the Operating Partnership, or subsidiaries thereof, not including those properties owned through our Funds. There are 92 properties in our Core Portfolio totaling 4.7 million square feet. As of March 31, 2016, the Core Portfolio physical occupancy was 96.3% and leased occupancy, which includes executed leases for which rent has not yet commenced, was 96.6%.


•	Funds


◦	Fund II has four properties, two of which (representing 0.3 million square feet) are operating, one of which is under construction, and one of which is in the design phase.


◦	Fund III has 10 properties, seven of which (representing 1.1 million square feet) are operating and three of which are in various stages of redevelopment.


◦	Fund IV has investments in 20 individual properties, 16 of which (representing 1.0 million square feet) are operating and 4 of which are in various stages of development. In addition, Fund IV is invested in a portfolio of 25 properties (the Broughton Street Portfolio), 14 of which are operating and 11 of which are in various stages of development.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe there have been no material changes to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies under Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," in our 2015 Form 10-K.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

A discussion of the significant variances and primary factors contributing thereto within our results of operations are addressed below. Where there were no significant variances from period to period, the information in the following tables is presented without further discussion:

Comparison of the three months ended March 31, 2016 ("2016") to the three months ended March 31, 2015 ("2015")



(dollars in millions)	2016						2015
Revenues	Core Portfolio		Funds		Structured Financing Portfolio		Core Portfolio		Funds		Structured Financing Portfolio
Rental income	$	30.4	$	8.2	$	—	$	28.5	$	9.7	$	—
Interest income	—		—		4.6		—		—		3.4
Expense reimbursements	6.5		1.4		—		6.7		3.4		—
Other	1.2		0.3		—		0.4		0.4		—
Total revenues	$	38.1	$	9.9	$	4.6	$	35.6	$	13.5	$	3.4

Rental income in the Core Portfolio increased $1.9 million primarily as a result of additional rents from property acquisitions in 2015 and 2016 ("Core Acquisitions"). Rental income in the Funds decreased $1.5 million due to decreases of $2.4 million relating to property dispositions in 2015 and 2016 ("Fund Dispositions"). These decreases were partially offset by property acquisitions in 2015 and 2016 ("Fund Acquisitions").

The $1.2 million increase in interest income in the Structured Financing Portfolio was primarily the result of new loans originated during 2015 and 2016.

Expense reimbursements in the Funds decreased $2.0 million primarily due to Fund Dispositions and a decrease in property operating expenses during 2016.



(dollars in millions)	2016						2015
Operating Expenses	Core Portfolio		Funds		Structured Financing Portfolio		Core Portfolio		Funds		Structured Financing Portfolio
Property operating	$	3.9	$	1.6	$	—	$	5.1	$	2.6	$	—
Other operating	0.2		0.1		—		0.5		1.6		—
Real estate taxes	4.5		1.7		—		4.1		2.2		—
General and administrative	9.1		0.3		—		6.8		0.7		—

Total operating expenses	$	31.2	$	7.1	$	—	$	26.4	$	10.9	$	—

Property operating expenses in the Core Portfolio decreased $1.2 million primarily as a result of lower seasonal costs during 2016. Property operating expenses in the Funds decreased $1.0 million primarily as a result of lower seasonal costs during 2016 and Fund Dispositions.

Other operating expenses in the Funds decreased $1.5 million as a result of lower acquisition costs during 2016.

General and administrative in the Core Portfolio increased $2.3 million due to increased compensation expense, which included $1.5 million related to the Program (Note 13).

The $3.6 million increase in depreciation and amortization in the Core Portfolio was attributable to Core Acquisitions.



(dollars in millions)	2016								2015
Other	Core Portfolio			Funds			Structured Financing Portfolio		Core Portfolio			Funds			Structured Financing Portfolio
Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates	$	0.6		$	1.4		$	—	$	0.4		$	6.2		$	—
Loss on debt extinguishment	—			—			—		—			(0.1		)	—
Gain on disposition of properties	—			65.4			—		—			27.1			—
Interest and other finance expense	(6.8		)	(1.3		)	—		(6.5		)	(2.4		)	—
Income tax benefit (provision)	0.1			—			—		(0.5		)	(0.9		)	—
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests -
- Continuing operations	(2.8		)	(42.1		)	—		(0.2		)	(21.8		)	—

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates in the Funds decreased $4.8 million primarily as a result of additional distributions in excess of basis from the RCP Venture in 2015.

The gain on disposition of properties in the Funds during 2016 represents our gain on sale from Cortlandt Town Center. Gain on disposition of properties in the Funds in 2015 represents our gain on sale from Lincoln Park Center.

Interest and other finance expense in the Funds decreased $1.1 million primarily due to a $1.5 million increase in capitalized interest related to our City Point redevelopment project during 2016, offset by a $0.5 million increase related to higher average interest rates during 2016.

The variance in the income tax benefit (provision) in the Funds resulted from a 2015 corporate federal tax incurred by a Fund IV investor.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Funds represents their share of all Fund variances discussed above.

CORE PORTFOLIO PERFORMANCE

The following discussion of net property operating income ("NOI") and rent spreads on new and renewal leases includes the activity from both our consolidated and our pro-rata share of unconsolidated properties within our Core Portfolio. Our Funds invest primarily in properties that frequently require significant leasing and redevelopment. Given that the Funds are finite-life investment vehicles, these properties are sold following stabilization. For these reasons, we believe NOI and rent spreads are not meaningful measures for our Fund investments.

NOI represents property revenues, excluding above and below market rent as well as straight-line rent, less property expenses. We consider NOI and rent spreads on new and renewal leases for our Core Portfolio to be appropriate supplemental disclosures of portfolio operating performance due to their widespread acceptance and use within the REIT investor and analyst communities. NOI and rent spreads on new and renewal leases are presented to assist investors in analyzing our property performance, however, our method of calculating these may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

Net Property Operating Income

NOI is determined as follows:



(dollars in millions)
Reconciliation of Consolidated Operating Income to NOI - Core Portfolio
	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2016			2015
Consolidated Operating Income	$	14.5		$	15.1

Less: Operating Partnership's interest in Fund NOI included above	(1.3		)	(1.6		)
Add: Operating Partnership's share of unconsolidated joint ventures NOI ¹	3.3			2.5
Core Portfolio NOI	$	27.5		$	23.9

Note:

(1) Does not include the Operating Partnership's share of NOI from unconsolidated joint ventures within the Funds

Same-property NOI includes properties in our Core Portfolio that we owned for both the current and prior periods presented, but excludes those properties which we acquired, sold or expected to sell, and redeveloped during these periods. We define a redevelopment property as an asset that is being repositioned in its market or undergoing significant renovation. Redevelopment activities involve taking a substantial portion of leasable space temporarily out of service and typically include structural work, demising of existing space and/or facade renovation. The following table summarizes same-property NOI for our Core Portfolio for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015:



(dollars in millions)
Reconciliation of Core Portfolio NOI to Same-Property NOI

Core Portfolio NOI	$	27.5		$	23.9

Same-Property Revenues	$	31.7		$	31.5
Same-Property Operating Expenses	(7.5		)	(8.2		)
Same-Property NOI	$	24.2		$	23.3

The increase in Same-Property NOI in the Core Portfolio for the three months ended March 31, 2016 were primarily attributable to contractual rent increases and the realization of rent increases from below-market leases.

The following table summarizes rent spreads on both a cash basis and straight-line basis for new and renewal leases based on leases executed within our Core Portfolio during the three months ended March 31, 2016. Cash basis represents a comparison of rent most recently paid on the previous lease as compared to the initial rent paid on the new lease. Straight-line basis represents a comparison of rents as adjusted for contractual escalations, abated rent and lease incentives for the same comparable leases.

Weighted average lease term (years)	8.2			8.2

Note:

(1) The average cost per square foot includes tenant improvement costs, leasing commissions and tenant allowances.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS

Consistent with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") definition, we define funds from operations ("FFO") as net income attributable to common shareholders (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciated property, plus depreciation and amortization, impairment of depreciable assets and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

We consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental disclosure of operating performance for an equity REIT due to its widespread acceptance and use within the REIT and analyst communities. FFO is presented to assist investors in analyzing our performance. It is helpful as it excludes various items included in net income that are not indicative of operating performance, such as gains (losses) from sales of depreciated property, depreciation and amortization, and impairment of depreciable real estate. Although we calculate FFO consistent with the NAREIT definition, other REITs may calculate it differently and, accordingly, our calculation may not be comparable to such other REITs. FFO does not represent cash generated from operations as defined by GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund all cash needs, including distributions. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income for the purpose of evaluating our performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.

The reconciliation of net income to FFO for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 is as follows:



	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
(amounts in millions, except per share amounts)	2016			2015
Funds From Operations
Net income attributable to Common Shareholders	$	28.9		$	16.5
Depreciation of real estate and amortization of leasing costs (net of noncontrolling interests’ share)	15.3			10.9
Gain on sale (net of noncontrolling interests’ share)	(15.1		)	(5.4		)
Income attributable to Common OP Unit holders	2.0			1.0
Funds from operations attributable to Common Shareholders and Common OP Unit holders	$	31.1		$	23.0
Funds From Operations per Share - Diluted
Weighted average number of Common Shares and Common OP Units	75.8			72.6
Diluted funds from operations, per Common Share and Common OP Unit	$	0.41		$	0.32

USES OF LIQUIDITY

Our principal uses of liquidity are (i) distributions to our shareholders and OP unit holders, (ii) investments which include the property acquisitions and redevelopment/re-tenanting activities within our Core Portfolio and the funding of our capital committed to the Funds, (iii) distributions to our Fund investors and (iv) debt service and loan repayments.

Distributions

In order to qualify as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes, we must currently distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to our shareholders. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, we paid dividends and distributions on our Common Shares, Common OP Units and LTIP Units totaling $37.6 million. This amount included an $18.8 million special dividend which related to the Operating Partnership's share of cash proceeds from property dispositions during 2015. The balance of the distribution was funded from the Operating Partnership's share of operating cash flow.

Distributions of $47.0 million were made to noncontrolling interests in Fund III during the three months ended March 31, 2016. This resulted from proceeds following the disposition of Cortlandt Town Center as discussed in Note 4 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Investments

Core Portfolio

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, we acquired two properties for an aggregate purchase price of $116.3 million. This was funded primarily through the issuance of OP Units and the assumption of our pro-rata share of debt. See Note 4 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of these investments.

We currently have an acquisition pipeline of $156.3 million under contract, including $59.7 million of mortgage indebtedness with various lenders that we expect to assume in connection with this pipeline. As this acquisition pipeline is subject to customary closing conditions, no assurance can be given that closing will be successfully completed.

Structured Financing Portfolio

As of March 31, 2016, our structured financing portfolio aggregated $154.7 million with related accrued interest of $15.9 million. The notes were collateralized by the underlying properties, the borrower's ownership interest in the entities that own the properties and/or by the borrower's personal guarantee. Effective interest rates on our notes receivable ranged from 2.5% to 18.0% with maturities from April 2016 through January 2021.

During 2016, we have made investments aggregating $27.8 million in our structured financing portfolio. See Note 6 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of these investments.

Funds

During 2016, Fund IV has acquired two properties for an aggregate purchase price of $13.8 million, of which the Operating Partnership's share was $3.0 million. See Note 4 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of these investments.

As part of our Fund investment strategy, we acquire real estate assets that require significant redevelopment. As of March 31, 2016, we had 10 redevelopment projects, four of which are under construction and six of which are in various stages of development as follows:



(dollars in millions)
Property	Owner	Costs to date		Anticipated additional costs (1)	Status	Anticipated square feet upon completion	Anticipated completion dates
City Point (2) (3)	Fund II	$	366.7	$23.3 - $43.3	Construction commenced	763,000	2016/2020

Total		$	587.3	$133.4 - $196.4

Notes:

(1) Anticipated additional costs are estimated ranges for completing the projects and include costs for tenant improvements and leasing commissions. The Operating Partnership's share of these costs are estimated to range from $33.0 million to $48.9 million.

(2) Phases I and II have an estimated completion date of 2016. Phase III has an estimated completion date of 2020.

(3) Net of actual and anticipated contributions from retail tenants and proceeds from residential tower sales. In addition, costs to date and anticipated additional costs excludes Tower I. Costs to date are reduced by $5.3 million relating to the New Markets Tax Credits received.

Debt Service and Loan Repayments

For the three months ended March 31, 2016 the Company repaid six loans with an aggregate principal balance of $98.0 million. See Note 8 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of these repayments. In addition, the Company made scheduled amortization payments totaling $1.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Share Repurchase

We have an existing share repurchase program that authorizes management, at its discretion, to repurchase up to $20.0 million of our outstanding Common Shares. The program may be discontinued or extended at any time and there is no assurance that we will purchase the full amount authorized. Under this program we have repurchased 2.1 million Common Shares, none of which were repurchased after December 2001. As of March 31, 2016, management has remaining authority to repurchase up to approximately $7.5 million of our outstanding Common Shares under this program.

SOURCES OF LIQUIDITY

Our principal sources of liquidity include (i) the issuance of both Common Shares and OP Units, (ii) the issuance of both secured and unsecured debt, (iii) unfunded capital commitments from noncontrolling interests within our Funds III and IV of $47.1 million and $231.6 million, respectively, (iv) future sales of existing properties, (v) cash on hand of $84.9 million as of March 31, 2016 and (vi) future cash flows from operating activities.

Issuance of Equity

During May 2014, we filed a universal, unlimited shelf registration on Form S-3. The registration is effective through May 2017 and allows the Company to issue Common Shares, Preferred Shares, debt securities and other securities with no restrictions on the amount.

During 2016, we have issued 1.1 million Common Shares under our at-the-market ("ATM") equity program for net proceeds of $35.2 million. See Note 3 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information related to our ATM equity program.

During 2016, we issued 442,478 Common OP Units and 141,593 Series C Preferred OP Units to acquire real estate (Note 3).

During April 2016, we entered into a forward sale and an underwritten public offering of 3.6 million Common Shares, which will result in gross proceeds of approximately $125.0 million, before any underwriting discount and offering expenses. The forward sale will settle on one or more dates occurring no later than approximately 12 months after the date of the offering.

Asset Sales

During January 2016, we completed the disposition of a 65% interest in Fund III's Cortlandt Town Center for $107.3 million. The Operating Partnership's share of net proceeds was $19.9 million.

During April 2016, Fund III completed the disposition of Heritage Shops in Chicago, Illinois for a sales price of $46.5 million. The Operating Partnership's share of net proceeds, net of the repayment of debt was $8.7 million.

See Note 4 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information related to our asset dispositions.

Structured Financing Portfolio Repayments

During 2016, we have received repayments in our structured financing portfolio aggregating $20.5 million. See Note 6 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, for further information of our notes receivable and preferred equity investments, and for payments received during the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Debt Financings

During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we received loan proceeds of $136.6 million, and made repayments of $201.0 million. See Notes 8 and 9 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the transactions related to mortgage loans, bond financing and credit facilities completed during the three months ended March 31, 2016.

As of March 31, 2016, mortgages, other notes payable and unsecured notes payable aggregated $1,306.0 million, excluding unamortized premium and unamortized loan costs, collateralized by 34 properties and related tenant leases. Interest rates on our outstanding mortgage indebtedness and other notes payable ranged from 1.00% to 6.65% with maturities that ranged from May 2016 to October 2025. Taking into consideration $305.7 million of notional principal under variable to fixed-rate swap agreements currently in effect, $844.1 million of the mortgages and other notes payable, or 64.6%, was fixed at a 5.16% weighted average interest rate and $461.9 million, or 35.4% was floating at a 2.29% weighted average interest rate as of March 31, 2016. There is $449.0 million of debt maturing in 2016 at a weighted average interest rate of 3.86%. In addition, there is $3.9 million of scheduled principal amortization due in 2016. As it relates to the maturing debt in 2016, we may not have sufficient cash on hand to repay such indebtedness, and, therefore, we expect to refinance at least a portion of this indebtedness or select other alternatives based on market conditions as these loans mature.

The following table sets forth certain information pertaining to our secured and unsecured credit facilities:

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND OTHER COMMITMENTS

At March 31, 2016, maturities on our mortgages and other notes payable ranged from May 2016 to October 2025. In addition, we have non-cancelable ground leases, with terms expiring between 2020 and 2078, at five of our properties. We also lease space for our corporate headquarters for a term expiring in 2027. The following table summarizes our debt maturities, obligations under non-cancelable operating and capital leases and construction contracts as of March 31, 2016:



(dollars in millions)	Payments due by period
Contractual obligations	Total		Less than 1 year		1 to 3 years		3 to 5 years		More than 5 years
Future debt maturities	$	1,306.0	$	557.1	$	207.8	$	432.5	$	108.6
Interest obligations on debt	125.2		39.8		46.7		28.5		10.2
Lease obligations (1)	216.6		3.7		12.7		10.9		189.3
Construction commitments	83.6		83.6		—		—		—
Total	$	1,731.4	$	684.2	$	267.2	$	471.9	$	308.1

(1) The ground lease expiring during 2078 has an option to purchase the underlying land during 2031. If we do not exercise the option, the rents that will be due are based on future values and as such are not determinable at this time. Accordingly, the above table does not include rents for this lease beyond 2031.

HISTORICAL CASH FLOW

The following table compares the historical cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2016 ("2016") with the cash flow for the three months ended March 31, 2015 ("2015"):



	Three Months Ended March 31,
(dollars in millions)	2016			2015			Change
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	18.0		$	26.6		$	(8.6	)
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities	72.8			(235.1		)	307.9
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities	(78.7		)	110.5			(189.2		)
Total	$	12.1		$	(98.0	)	$	110.1

A discussion of the significant changes in cash flows for 2016 compared to 2015 is as follows:

Operating Activities

Our operating activities used $8.6 million of additional cash during 2016, primarily from the following:


•	An upfront payment of a capital lease obligation during 2016

Investing Activities

During 2016, we used $307.9 million less cash for investing activities, primarily due to the following:


•	$241.0 million less cash was used for the acquisition of real estate


•	$41.3 million increase in cash received from the disposition of properties


•	$32.3 million increase in cash collected from the return of capital from unconsolidated affiliates

These items were partially offset by:


•	$6.7 million of additional cash was issued for notes receivable, net of repayments

Financing Activities

Our financing activities used $196.7 million more cash during 2016, primarily from the following:


•	Cash provided from net borrowings decreased $228.9 million


•	$29.8 million of additional cash distributed to noncontrolling interests

These items were partially offset by:


•	$46.3 million of additional cash contributed from noncontrolling interests


•	$13.4 million more cash received from the issuance of Common Shares

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We have investments in the following joint ventures for the purpose of investing in operating properties. We account for these investments using the equity method of accounting. As such, our financial statements reflect our investment in and our share of income and loss from, but not the individual assets and liabilities of, these joint ventures.

See Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of our unconsolidated investments. Our pro-rata share of debt related to these unconsolidated investments is as follows:



(dollars in millions)	Operating Partnership
Investment	Pro-rata share of mortgage debt		Interest rate at March 31, 2016		Maturity Date
Promenade at Manassas	$	5.7	1.84	%	November 2016
1701 Belmont Avenue	0.7		4.00	%	January 2017
Arundel Plaza	2.2		2.44	%	April 2017
2819 Kennedy Boulevard	1.6		2.59	%	December 2017
Eden Square	3.6		2.44	%	December 2017
230/240 W. Broughton	1.0		2.34	%	May 2018
Crossroads	33.1		3.94	%	October 2024
840 N. Michigan	65.0		4.36	%	February 2025
Georgetown Portfolio	8.7		4.72	%	December 2027
Cortlandt Town Center	8.0		2.19	%	January 2020
Gotham Plaza	10.4		2.04	%	June 2023
Total	$	140.0

Note:

In addition, we have arranged for the provision of two separate letters of credit in connection with certain leases and investments. As of March 31, 2016, there was no outstanding balance under the letters of credit. If the letters of credit were fully drawn, the maximum amount of our exposure would be $17.5 million.

In addition to our derivative financial instruments, two of our unconsolidated affiliates are parties to one interest rate LIBOR swap and one interest rate LIBOR cap with notional values of $21.3 million and $93.0 million, respectively. The interest rate LIBOR swap effectively fixes the interest rate at 3.49% and expires in June 2023. The interest rate LIBOR cap is at 3.00% and expires in February 2029. Our pro-rata share of the fair value of such affiliates' derivative liabilities, net totaled $0.4 million as of March 31, 2016.

INFLATION

Our long-term leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation on our net income. Such provisions include clauses enabling us to receive percentage rents based on tenants' gross sales, which generally increase as prices rise, and/or, in certain cases, escalation clauses, which generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases. Such escalation clauses are often related to increases in the consumer price index or similar inflation indexes. In addition, many of our leases are for terms of less than ten years, which permits us to seek to increase rents upon re-rental at market rates if current rents are below the then existing market rates. Most of our leases require the tenants to pay their share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Our primary market risk exposure is to changes in interest rates related to our mortgage debt and other debt. See the discussion under Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for certain quantitative details related to our mortgage debt and other debt.

Currently, we manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates primarily through the use of fixed-rate debt and interest rate swap and cap agreements. As of March 31, 2016, we had total mortgage debt and other notes payable of $1,306.0 million, net of unamortized premium and unamortized loan costs, of which $844.1 million or 64.6% was fixed-rate, inclusive of interest rate swaps, and $461.9 million or 35.4% was variable-rate based upon certain indices, primarily LIBOR, plus certain spreads. As of March 31, 2016, we were a party to 16 interest rate swap transactions and one interest rate caps to hedge our exposure to changes in interest rates with respect to $305.7 million and $29.5 million of LIBOR-based variable-rate debt, respectively.

Of our total consolidated outstanding debt, $453.0 million and $225.5 million will become due in 2016 and 2017, respectively. As we intend on refinancing some or all of such debt at the then-existing market interest rates, which may be greater than the current interest rate, our interest expense would increase by approximately $6.8 million annually if the interest rate on the refinanced debt increased by 100 basis points. After giving effect to noncontrolling interests, our share of this increase would be $2.4 million.

Interest expense on our consolidated variable-rate debt, net of variable to fixed-rate swap agreements currently in effect, as of March 31, 2016 would increase by $4.6 million annually if the indices increased by 100 basis points. After giving effect to noncontrolling interests, our share of this increase would be $1.0 million. We may seek additional variable-rate financing if and when pricing and other commercial and financial terms warrant. As such, we would consider hedging against the interest rate risk related to such additional variable-rate debt through interest rate swaps and protection agreements, or other means.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. In accordance with paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

(b) Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
