NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1.
Organization, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Organization and Basis of Presentation
AvalonBay Communities, Inc. (the "Company," which term, unless the context otherwise requires, refers to AvalonBay Communities, Inc. together with its subsidiaries), is a Maryland corporation that has elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for federal income tax purposes under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"). The Company focuses on the development, redevelopment, acquisition, ownership and operation of multifamily communities primarily in New England, the New York/New Jersey metro area, the Mid-Atlantic, the Pacific Northwest, and Northern and Southern California.
At
June 30, 2019
, the Company owned or held a direct or indirect ownership interest in
273
operating apartment communities containing
79,161
apartment homes in
12
states and the District of Columbia, of which
seven
communities containing
3,026
apartment homes were under redevelopment. In addition, the Company owned or held a direct or indirect ownership interest in
21
communities under development that are expected to contain an aggregate of
7,023
apartment homes when completed, as well as a mixed-use project being developed in which the Company is currently pursuing a potential for-sale strategy of individual condominium units. The Company also owned or held a direct or indirect ownership interest in land or rights to land on which the Company expects to develop an additional
28
communities that, if developed as expected, will contain an estimated
9,004
apartment homes.
The interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements required by GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company's
2018
Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. Management believes the disclosures are adequate to ensure the information presented is not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and eliminations, consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements for the interim periods, have been included.
Capitalized terms used without definition have meanings provided elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
Earnings per Common Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. All outstanding unvested restricted share awards contain rights to non-forfeitable dividends and participate in undistributed earnings with common shareholders and, accordingly, are considered participating securities that are included in the two-class method of computing basic earnings per share ("EPS"). Both the unvested restricted shares and other potentially dilutive common shares, and the related impact to earnings, are considered when calculating earnings per share on a diluted basis.
The Company's earnings per common share are determined as follows (dollars in thousands, except per share data):

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company enters into interest rate swap and interest rate cap agreements (collectively, "Hedging Derivatives") for interest rate risk management purposes and in conjunction with certain variable rate secured debt to satisfy lender requirements. The Company does not enter into Hedging Derivative transactions for trading or other speculative purposes. The Company assesses the effectiveness of qualifying cash flow and fair value hedges, both at inception and on an on-going basis. Hedge ineffectiveness is reported as a component of interest expense, net. The fair values of Hedging Derivatives that are in an asset position are recorded in prepaid expenses and other assets. The fair value of Hedging Derivatives that are in a liability position are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities. The Company does not present or disclose the fair value of Hedging Derivatives on a net basis. Fair value changes for derivatives that are not in qualifying hedge relationships are reported as a component of interest expense, net. For the Hedging Derivative positions that the Company has determined qualify as effective cash flow hedges, the Company has recorded the cumulative changes in the fair value of Hedging Derivatives in other comprehensive loss. Amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified into earnings in the periods in which earnings are affected by the hedged cash flow. The effective portion of the change in fair value of the Hedging Derivatives that the Company has determined qualified as effective fair value hedges is reported as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the corresponding debt being hedged.
See Note 11, "Fair Value," for further discussion of derivative financial instruments.
Legal and Other Contingencies
The Company is involved in various claims and/or administrative proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of its business. While no assurances can be given, the Company does not currently believe that any of these outstanding litigation matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.

Table of Contents
Acquisitions of Investments in Real Estate
The Company accounts for acquisitions of investments in real estate in accordance with the authoritative guidance for the initial measurement, which first requires that the Company determine if the real estate investment is the acquisition of an asset or a business combination. Under either model, the Company must identify and determine the fair value of any assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. Typical assets acquired and liabilities assumed include land, building, furniture, fixtures and equipment, debt and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above or below market leases and in-place leases. In making estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating purchase price, the Company utilizes various sources, including its own analysis of recently acquired and existing comparable properties in its portfolio and other market data. Consideration for acquisitions is typically in the form of cash unless otherwise disclosed. For a business combination, the Company records the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the fair value of each respective item. For an asset acquisition, the allocation of the purchase price is based on the relative fair value of the net assets. The Company expenses all applicable acquisition costs for a business combination and capitalizes all applicable acquisition costs for an asset acquisition. The Company expects that acquisitions of individual operating communities will generally be viewed as asset acquisitions.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to amounts in prior years' notes to financial statements to conform to current year presentations as a result of changes in held for sale classification, disposition activity and segment classification.
Leases
The Company is party to leases as both a lessor and a lessee, primarily as follows:
•
lessor of residential and retail space within its apartment communities; and
•
lessee under (i) ground leases for land underlying current operating or development communities, (ii) office leases for its corporate headquarters and regional offices and (iii) leases of equipment.
The Company adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases, as of January 1, 2019 using the prospective adoption approach, applying the provisions of the new standard to existing leases as of the date of adoption.
Lessee Considerations
The Company assessed whether a contract is or contains a lease based on whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, including specified portions of larger assets, for a period of time in exchange for consideration. The Company identified leases as contracts in which it has the right to direct the use of the property and obtain all of the economic benefits.
The Company’s leases include both fixed and variable lease payments, which are based on an index or rate such as the consumer price index (CPI) or percentage rents based on total sales. When evaluating what payments to include in the measurement of the lease liability, the Company included lease payments that depend on an index or rate only. Variable lease payments that are not based on an index or rate including changes in CPI, percentage rents based on total sales, fair market value resets and others are not included in the measurement of the lease liability, but will be recognized as variable lease expense in the period in which they are incurred.
For leases that have options to extend the term or terminate the lease early, the Company considered whether these options are reasonably certain to be exercised, taking into account physical improvements, installation or relocation costs, rent during the option periods and the cost of returning the assets to a contractually specified condition. The Company only factored the impact of options into the lease term if the option was considered reasonably certain to be exercised.
The Company determined the discount rate associated with its ground and office leases using the Company’s actual borrowing rates as well as indicative market pricing for longer term rates. The Company determined the discount rates on a lease by lease basis using the incremental borrowing rate and taking into consideration the remaining term of each of the lease agreements.

Table of Contents
Lessor Considerations
The Company evaluated leases in which it is the lessor, which are composed of residential and retail leases at its apartment communities. The accounting model for lessors did not significantly change as a result of ASU 2016-02, with the impacts primarily related to the accounting for sales-type and direct financing leases. The Company evaluated its residential and retail leases determining that they continue to be considered to be operating leases. For lease agreements that provide for rent concessions and/or scheduled fixed and determinable rent increases, rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the noncancellable term of the lease. The Company’s residential lease term is generally one year. Some of the Company’s retail leases have fixed-price renewal options, and the lessee may be able to exercise its renewal option at an amount less than the fair value of the rent at such time. The Company only includes renewal options in the lease term, if at the commencement of the lease, the option period rent is reasonably certain to be less than the base period rent and therefore exercised by the lessee.
Additionally, for the Company’s residential and retail leases, which are comprised of the lease component and common area maintenance as a non-lease component, the Company determined that (i) the leases are operating leases, (ii) the lease component is the predominant component and (iii) that all components of its operating leases share the same timing and pattern of transfer.
The Company changed its presentation of charges for uncollectible lease revenue associated with its residential and retail leasing activity, reflecting those amounts as a component of rental and other income on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
. However, in accordance with its prospective adoption of the lease standard, the Company did not adjust the prior year period presentation of charges for uncollectible lease revenue associated with its residential and retail leasing activity as a component of operating expenses, excluding property taxes, on the on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2018
.
Implementation Considerations and Impact
As discussed above, the Company used the prospective adoption approach for the standard. Additionally, in conjunction with the implementation of the standard, the Company elected to apply certain lessee practical expedients allowed under the standard including:
•
not reassessing (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (iii) the accounting for initial direct costs for any existing leases;
•
not evaluating short term leases;
•
not assessing whether existing land easements are, or contain leases; and
•
making an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset, to not separate non-lease components from lease components and instead to account for each separate lease and non-lease component as a single lease component.
Also in conjunction with the implementation of the standard, the Company elected to apply the following practical expedients for lessors, making an accounting policy election:
•
by class of underlying asset for retail and residential leases, to not separate non-lease components from lease components and instead to account for each separate lease and non- lease component as a single lease component;
•
to exclude costs paid by lessees directly to third parties on behalf of the Company; and
•
to exclude sales taxes and other similar taxes assessed by a government authority and collected by the Company from the lessee.
Upon adoption, the Company recorded lease liabilities and offsetting right of use lease assets for its ground and office leases of
$
122,276,000
. In addition, the Company made certain other reclassifications in the current year period of lease related amounts on its Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet to conform to the presentation under the new standard. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
Revenue and Gain Recognition
The majority of the Company’s revenue is derived from residential and retail rental income and other lease income, which are accounted for under ASU 2016-02, Leases, discussed above. The Company's revenue streams that are not accounted for under ASU 2016-02 include:

Table of Contents
•
Management fees - The Company has investment interests in real estate joint ventures, for which the Company may manage (i) the venture, (ii) the associated operating communities owned by the ventures and/or (iii) the development or redevelopment of those operating communities. For these activities, the Company receives asset management, property management, development and/or redevelopment fee revenue. The performance obligation is the management of the venture, community or other defined task such as the development or redevelopment of the community. While the individual activities that comprise the performance obligation of the management fees can vary day to day, the nature of the overall performance obligation to provide management service is the same and considered by the Company to be a series of services that have the same pattern of transfer to the customer and the same method to measure progress toward satisfaction of the performance obligation. The Company recognizes revenue for fees as earned on a monthly basis.
•
Rental and non-rental related income - The Company recognizes revenue for new rental related income not included as components of a lease, such as reservation and application fees, as well as for non-rental related income, as earned.
•
Gains or losses on sales of real estate
-
The Company accounts for the sale of real estate assets and any related gain recognition in accordance with the accounting guidance applicable to sales of real estate, which establishes standards for recognition of profit on all real estate sales transactions, other than retail land sales. The Company recognizes the sale, and associated gain or loss from the disposition, provided that the earnings process is complete and the Company does not have significant continuing involvement. A gain or loss is recognized when the criteria for an asset to be derecognized are met, which include when (i) a contract exists and (ii) the buyer obtained control of the nonfinancial asset that was sold. In addition, a gain or loss recognized on the sale of a nonfinancial asset to an unconsolidated entity is recognized at 100%, and not the Company’s proportionate ownership percentage.
The following table provides details of the Company’s revenue streams disaggregated by the Company’s reportable operating segments, further discussed in Note 8, “Segment Reporting,” for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
. Segment information for total revenue has been adjusted to exclude the real estate assets that were sold from January 1,
2018
through
June 30, 2019
, or otherwise qualify as held for sale as of
June 30, 2019
, as described in Note 6, "Real Estate Disposition Activities." Additionally, as discussed above, the Company changed its presentation of charges for uncollectible lease revenue for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, including it as an adjustment to revenue and not as a component of operating expenses, as it is presented for prior periods on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.

credit facility dated as of January 14, 2016. The term of the Credit Facility ends on February 28, 2024.
11
Table of Contents
The Credit Facility bears interest at varying levels based on (i) the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) applicable to the period of borrowing for a particular draw of funds from the facility (e.g., one month to maturity, three months to maturity, etc.) and (ii) the rating levels issued for our unsecured notes. The current stated pricing for drawn borrowings is LIBOR plus
0.775
%
per annum (
3.15
%
at
June 30, 2019
), assuming a one month borrowing rate. The stated spread over LIBOR can vary from LIBOR plus
0.70
%
to LIBOR plus
1.45
%
based upon the rating of the Company's unsecured notes. The Credit Facility also provides a competitive bid option that is available for borrowings of up to
65
%
of the Credit Facility amount. This option allows banks that are part of the lender consortium to bid to provide the Company loans at a rate that is lower than the stated pricing provided by the unsecured credit facility. The competitive bid option may result in lower pricing than the stated rate if market conditions allow. The annual facility fee for the Credit Facility remained
0.125
%
, resulting in a fee of
$
2,188,000
annually based on the
$
1,750,000,000
facility size and based on the Company's current credit rating.
The Company had no borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility as of
June 30, 2019
and
December 31, 2018
. The Company had
$
35,461,000
and
$
39,810,000
outstanding in letters of credit that reduced the borrowing capacity as of
June 30, 2019
and
December 31, 2018
, respectively. In addition, the Company had
$
100,000
outstanding in additional letters of credit as of
June 30, 2019
.
In the aggregate, secured notes payable mature at various dates from November 2019 through July 2066, and are secured by certain apartment communities (with a net carrying value of
$
1,667,725,000
, excluding communities classified as held for sale, as of
June 30, 2019
).
The weighted average interest rate of the Company's fixed rate secured notes payable (conventional and tax-exempt) was both
3.8
%
at
June 30, 2019
and
December 31, 2018
, respectively. The weighted average interest rate of the Company's variable rate secured notes payable (conventional and tax-exempt) including the effect of certain financing related fees, was

In December 2015, the Company commenced a fourth continuous equity program ("CEP IV") under which the Company was able to sell (and/or enter into forward sale agreements for the sale of) up to
$

Table of Contents
In May 2019, the Company replaced CEP IV with a new continuous equity program ("CEP V") under which the Company may sell (and/or enter into forward sale agreements for the sale of) up to
$
1,000,000,000
of its common stock from time to time. Actual sales will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by the Company, including market conditions, the trading price of the Company's common stock and determinations by the Company of the appropriate sources of funding for the Company. In conjunction with CEP V, the Company engaged sales agents who will receive compensation of up to
1.5
%
of the gross sales price for shares sold. The Company expects that, if entered into, it will physically settle each forward sale agreement on one or more dates specified by the Company on or prior to the maturity date of that particular forward sale agreement, in which case the Company will expect to receive aggregate net cash proceeds at settlement equal to the number of shares underlying the particular forward agreement multiplied by the relevant forward sale price. However, the Company may also elect to cash settle or net share settle a forward sale agreement. In connection with each forward sale agreement, the Company will pay the relevant forward seller, in the form of a reduced initial forward sale price, a commission of up to
1.5
%
of the sales prices of all borrowed shares of common stock sold. As of
June 30, 2019
, there are no outstanding forward sales agreements.
During the first quarter of 2019, the Company sold
755,054
shares at an average sales price of
$198.26
per share, for net proceeds of
$
147,450,000
under CEP IV. The Company did not have any sales under CEP IV during the three months ended
June 30, 2019
. During the three months ended
June 30, 2019
, the Company sold
239,580
shares at an average sales price of
$
208.70
per share, for net proceeds of
$

In conjunction with the acquisition of the Archstone Multifamily Partners AC LP (the "U.S. Fund"), Multifamily Partners AC JV LP (the "AC JV") and Brandywine Apartments of Maryland, LLC ("Brandywine"), the Company incurred costs in excess of its equity in the underlying net assets of the respective investments. These costs represent
$
30,544,000
and
$
31,188,000
at
June 30, 2019
and
December 31, 2018
, respectively, of the Company's respective investment balances. These amounts are being amortized over the lives of the underlying assets as a component of equity in income of unconsolidated real estate entities on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
Investments in Consolidated Real Estate Entities
During the
six months ended June 30, 2019
, the Company acquired
two
consolidated communities:
•
Avalon Southlands, located in Aurora, CO, which contains
338
apartment homes and was acquired for a purchase price of
$
91,250,000
.
•
Avalon Cerritos, located in Cerritos, CA, which contains
132
apartment homes and was acquired for a purchase price of
$
60,500,000
.
The Company accounted for these as asset acquisitions and recorded the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, including identifiable intangibles, at their relative fair values based on the purchase price and acquisition costs incurred. The Company used third party pricing or internal models for the values of the land, a valuation model for the values of the buildings, and an internal model to determine the fair values of the remaining real estate assets and in-place leases. Given the heterogeneous nature of multifamily real estate, the fair values for the land, debt, real estate assets and in-place leases incorporated significant unobservable inputs and therefore are considered to be Level 3 prices within the fair value hierarchy.
In conjunction with the development of Avalon Brooklyn Bay, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement to construct a mixed-use building that contains rental apartments, for-sale residential condominium units and related common elements. The Company owns a
70.0
%
interest in the venture, which represents a
100
%
interest in the rental apartments, and the venture partner owns the remaining
30.0
%
interest, which represents a
100
%
interest in the for-sale residential condominium units. The Company was responsible for the development and construction of the structure, and provided a loan to the venture partner for the venture partner's share of costs. The venture is considered a VIE, and the Company consolidates its interest in the rental apartments and common areas, which are included in total real estate, net on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The development of Avalon Brooklyn Bay was completed during 2018. The Company has a receivable from the venture partner in the form of a variable rate mortgage note, secured by the remaining for-sale residential condominium units. Beginning in 2018, the mortgage note is being repaid by the venture partner with the proceeds the venture partner receives from the sales of the residential condominium units. The balances as of
June 30, 2019
and
December 31, 2018
were
$
12,272,000
and
$
12,819,000
, respectively, representing outstanding principal and interest, net of repayments. These amounts are reported as a component of prepaid expenses and other assets on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recognizes interest income on the accrual basis.
As of
June 30, 2019
, the Company is pursuing a potential for-sale strategy of the individual condominium units for the residential portion of the 15 West 61st Street development, which is currently under construction and contains
172
residential units and
67,000
square feet of retail space for a projected total capitalized cost of
$
624,000,000
. The Company expects to complete construction of both the residential and retail components of this development during 2019, and intends to own and operate the retail portion of the development. The Company incurred
$
945,000
and
$
158,000
during the three months ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
, respectively, and
$
1,418,000
and
$
158,000
for the
six months ended June 30, 2019
and
2018
, respectively, in selling, general and administrative costs associated with 15 West 61st Street, included in expensed transaction, development and other pursuit costs, net of recoveries, on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.

Table of Contents
Expensed Transaction, Development and Other Pursuit Costs and Casualty and Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company capitalizes pre-development costs incurred in pursuit of new development opportunities for which the Company currently believes future development is probable ("Development Rights"). Future development of these Development Rights is dependent upon various factors, including zoning and regulatory approval, rental market conditions, construction costs and the availability of capital. Initial pre-development costs incurred for pursuits for which future development is not yet considered probable are expensed as incurred. In addition, if the status of a Development Right changes, making future development by the Company no longer probable, any capitalized pre-development costs are expensed. The Company expensed costs related to the abandonment of Development Rights and costs for pursuits where development is not yet considered probable, as well as costs incurred in pursuing the acquisition or disposition of assets for which such acquisition and disposition activity did not occur, in the amounts of
$
1,766,000
and
$
889,000
for the three months ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
, respectively, and
$
2,388,000
and
$
1,689,000
for the six months ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
, respectively. These costs are included in expensed transaction, development and other pursuit costs, net of recoveries on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Abandoned pursuit costs can vary greatly, and the costs incurred in any given period may be significantly different in future periods.
The Company evaluates its real estate and other long-lived assets for impairment when potential indicators of impairment exist. Such assets are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization, unless the carrying amount of the asset is not recoverable. If events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a property or long-lived asset may not be recoverable, the Company assesses its recoverability by comparing the carrying amount of the property or long-lived asset to its estimated undiscounted future cash flows. If the carrying amount exceeds the aggregate undiscounted future cash flows, the Company recognizes an impairment loss to the extent the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the property or long-lived asset. Based on periodic tests of recoverability of long-lived assets, the Company did not recognize any impairment losses for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
.
The Company assesses its portfolio of land held for both development and investment for impairment if the intent of the Company changes with respect to either the development of, or the expected holding period for, the land. During the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
, the Company did not recognize any impairment charges on its investment in land.
The Company evaluates its unconsolidated investments for other than temporary impairment, considering both the extent and amount by which the carrying value of the investment exceeds the fair value, and the Company's intent and ability to hold the investment to recover its carrying value. The Company also evaluates its proportionate share of any impairment of assets held by unconsolidated investments. There were no other than temporary impairment losses recognized by any of the Company's investments in unconsolidated real estate entities during the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
.

Segment Reporting
The Company's reportable operating segments include Established Communities, Other Stabilized Communities, and Development/Redevelopment Communities. Annually as of January 1, the Company determines which of its communities fall into each of these categories and generally maintains that classification throughout the year for the purpose of reporting segment operations, unless disposition or redevelopment plans regarding a community change. In addition, the Company owns land for future development and has other corporate assets that are not allocated to an operating segment.
18
Table of Contents
The Company's segment disclosures present the measure(s) used by the chief operating decision maker for purposes of assessing each segment's performance. The Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is comprised of several members of its executive management team who use net operating income ("NOI") as the primary financial measure for Established Communities and Other Stabilized Communities. NOI is defined by the Company as total property revenue less direct property operating expenses (including property taxes), and excluding corporate-level income (including management, development and other fees), corporate-level property management and other indirect operating expenses, expensed transaction, development and other pursuit costs, net of recoveries, interest expense, net, loss on extinguishment of debt, net, general and administrative expense, equity in income of unconsolidated real estate entities, depreciation expense, corporate income tax expense, casualty and impairment (gain) loss, net, gain on sale of communities, (gain) loss on other real estate transactions, net and net operating income from real estate assets sold or held for sale. Although the Company considers NOI a useful measure of a community's or communities' operating performance, NOI should not be considered an alternative to net income or net cash flow from operating activities, as determined in accordance with GAAP. NOI excludes a number of income and expense categories as detailed in the reconciliation of NOI to net income.
A reconciliation of NOI to net income for the
three and six
months ended

The primary performance measure for communities under development or redevelopment depends on the stage of completion. While under development, management monitors actual construction costs against budgeted costs as well as lease-up pace and rent levels compared to budget.
The following table provides details of the Company's segment information as of the dates specified (dollars in thousands). The segments are classified based on the individual community's status at January 1,
2019
. Segment information for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
has been adjusted to exclude the real estate assets that were sold from January 1,
2018
through
June 30, 2019
, or otherwise qualify as held for sale as of
June 30, 2019
, as described in Note 6, "Real Estate Disposition Activities."
In addition to NOI, the Company's CODM considers total revenue in assessing each segment's performance. As discussed in Note 1, "Organization, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies," the Company changed its presentation of charges for uncollectible lease revenue beginning with the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, including it as an adjustment to revenue and not as a component of operating expenses, as it is presented for prior periods on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. Consistent with how the Company's CODM evaluates total revenue, and to
19
Table of Contents
provide comparability between periods presented in the Company's segment reporting, the Company has included charges for uncollectible lease revenue for its segment results as a component of revenue for all periods presented in the following table. Total revenue for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2018
as presented in the following table includes
$

Fair Value
Financial Instruments Carried at Fair Value
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company uses interest rate swap and interest rate cap agreements to manage its interest rate risk. These instruments are carried at fair value in the Company's financial statements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of counterparty nonperformance risk, the Company has considered the impact of its net position with a given counterparty, as well as any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts and guarantees. The Company minimizes its credit risk on these transactions by dealing with major, creditworthy financial institutions which have an A or better credit rating by the Standard & Poor's Ratings Group. As part of its on-going control procedures, the Company monitors the credit ratings of counterparties and the exposure of the Company to any single entity, thus reducing credit risk concentration. The Company believes the likelihood of realizing losses from counterparty nonperformance is remote. Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, such as interest rate, term to maturity and volatility, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives use Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. As of
June 30, 2019
, the Company assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined it is not significant. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivative valuations are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Represents the weighted average interest rate on the hedged debt.
During the three and
six months ended June 30, 2019
, in conjunction with the issuance of the Company's
3.30
%
notes due 2029 in May 2019, the Company settled
$
250,000,000
of forward interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges of the interest rate variability on the forecasted issuance of the unsecured notes, making a payment of
$
12,309,000
. The Company has deferred this amount in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, and will recognize the impact as a component of interest expense, net, over the
10
year term of the debt.
In addition, during the three and
six months ended June 30, 2019
, the Company entered into
$
250,000,000
of new forward interest rate swap agreements executed to reduce the impact of variability in interest rates on a portion of the Company's expected debt issuance activity in 2020.
As of
June 30, 2019
, the Company had
$
250,000,000
outstanding forward interest rate swap agreements. At maturity of the remaining outstanding swap agreements, the Company expects to cash settle the contracts and either pay or receive cash for the then current fair value. Assuming that the Company issues the debt as expected, the hedging impact from these positions will then be recognized over the life of the issued debt as a yield adjustment.
The Company had
four
derivatives designated as cash flow hedges and
five
derivatives not designated as hedges at
June 30, 2019
. Fair value changes for derivatives not in qualifying hedge relationships for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
were not material. During the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, the Company deferred
$
10,119,000

June 30, 2019
and

.
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
The Company is party to investments in
two
consolidated ventures, which contain redemption options (the "Puts") that allow joint venture partners of the Company to require the Company to purchase their interests in the investment at a guaranteed minimum amount. The Puts are payable in cash. The Company determines the fair value of the Puts based on unobservable inputs considering the assumptions that market participants would make in pricing the obligations, applying a guaranteed rate of return to the joint venture partners' net capital contribution balances as of period end. Given the significance of the unobservable inputs, the valuations are classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
23
Table of Contents
The Company issued units of limited partnership interest in DownREITs which provide the DownREIT limited partners the ability to present all or some of their units for redemption for cash as determined by the partnership agreement. Under the DownREIT agreements, for each limited partnership unit, the limited partner is entitled to receive cash in the amount equal to the fair value of the Company's common stock on or about the date of redemption. In lieu of cash redemption, the Company may elect to exchange such units for an equal number of shares of the Company's common stock. The limited partnership units in the DownREITs are valued using the market price of the Company's common stock, a Level 1 price under the fair value hierarchy.
Financial Instruments Not Carried at Fair Value
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalent balances are held with various financial institutions within accounts designed to preserve principal. The Company monitors credit ratings of these financial institutions and the concentration of cash and cash equivalent balances with any one financial institution and believes the likelihood of realizing material losses related to cash and cash equivalent balances is remote. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at their face amounts, which reasonably approximate their fair values and are Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy.
Other Financial Instruments
Rents and other receivables and prepaid expenses, accounts and construction payable and accrued expenses and other liabilities are carried at their face amounts, which reasonably approximate their fair values.
The Company values its unsecured notes using quoted market prices, a Level 1 price within the fair value hierarchy. The Company values its notes payable and outstanding amounts under the Credit Facility and Term Loans using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each instrument. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the instrument, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves. The process also considers credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect the Company's nonperformance risk. The Company has concluded that the value of its notes payable and amounts outstanding under its Credit Facility and Term Loans are Level 2 prices as the majority of the inputs used to value its positions fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Executive Overview
Business Description
We develop, redevelop, acquire, own and operate multifamily apartment communities primarily in New England, the New York/New Jersey metro area, the Mid-Atlantic, the Pacific Northwest, and Northern and Southern California. We focus on leading metropolitan areas that we believe are characterized by growing employment in high wage sectors of the economy, lower housing affordability and a diverse and vibrant quality of life. We believe these market characteristics offer the opportunity for superior risk-adjusted returns on apartment community investments relative to other markets that do not have these characteristics. We believe that the Denver, Colorado, and Southeast Florida markets share these characteristics, and in 2017 we began to invest in these markets through acquisitions and developments. We seek to create long-term shareholder value by accessing capital on cost effective terms; deploying that capital to develop, redevelop and acquire apartment communities in our selected markets; operating apartment communities; and selling communities when they no longer meet our long-term investment strategy or when pricing is attractive.
Our strategic vision is to be the leading apartment company in select U.S. markets, providing a range of distinctive living experiences that customers value. We pursue this vision by targeting what we believe are among the best markets and submarkets, leveraging our strategic capabilities in market research and consumer insight and being disciplined in our capital allocation and balance sheet management. Our communities are predominately upscale and generally command among the highest rents in their markets. However, we also pursue the ownership and operation of apartment communities that target a variety of customer segments and price points, consistent with our goal of offering a broad range of products and services. We regularly evaluate the allocation of our investments by the amount of invested capital and by product type within our individual markets.
Second Quarter
2019
Highlights
•
Net income attributable to common stockholders for the
three months ended June 30, 2019
was
$168,281,000
, a decrease of
$86,381,000
, or
33.9%
, as compared to the prior year period. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in real estate sales and related gains and an increase in depreciation expense in the current year period, partially offset by an increase in NOI from communities across the portfolio and a decrease in interest expense over the prior year period.
•
Established Communities NOI for the
three months ended June 30, 2019
was
$326,774,000
, an increase of
$8,938,000
, or
2.8%
, over the prior year period.
At
June 30, 2019
, we owned or held a direct or indirect interest in:
•
21
communities under construction, which are expected to contain
7,023
apartment homes with a projected total capitalized cost of
$2,578,000,000
; and
•
land or rights to land on which we expect to develop an additional
28
apartment communities that, if developed as expected, will contain
9,004
apartment homes, and will be developed for an aggregate total capitalized cost of
$3,842,000,000
.
26
Table of Contents
During the
three months ended June 30, 2019
, we sold Archstone Toscano, a wholly-owned operating community located in Houston, TX, containing
474
apartment homes. Archstone Toscano was sold for
$98,000,000
, and our gain in accordance with GAAP was
$20,604,000
.
During the
three months ended June 30, 2019
, we acquired Avalon Cerritos, a wholly-owned operating community located in Cerritos, CA. Avalon Cerritos contains
132
apartment homes and was acquired for a purchase price of
$60,500,000
.
In July and August 2019, we sold
two
wholly-owned operating communities containing
528
apartment homes for
$150,100,000
, and acquired
one
wholly-owned operating community containing
151
apartment homes for
$43,450,000
.
We expect to be able to meet our reasonably foreseeable liquidity needs, as they arise, through a combination of one or more of the following sources: existing cash on hand; operating cash flows; borrowings under our Credit Facility; secured debt; the issuance of corporate securities (which could include unsecured debt, preferred equity and/or common equity); the sale of apartment communities; or through the formation of joint ventures including the activity discussed above. See the discussion under "Liquidity and Capital Resources".
Communities Overview
Our real estate investments consist primarily of current operating apartment communities, communities in various stages of development ("Development Communities") and Development Rights (as defined below). Our current operating communities are further distinguished as Established Communities, Other Stabilized Communities, Lease-Up Communities, Redevelopment Communities and Unconsolidated Communities. While we generally establish the classification of communities on an annual basis, we update the classification of communities during the calendar year to the extent that our plans with regard to the disposition or redevelopment of a community change. The following is a description of each category:
Current Communities
are categorized as Established, Other Stabilized, Lease-Up, Redevelopment, or Unconsolidated according to the following attributes:
•
Established Communities (also known as Same Store Communities)
are consolidated communities in the markets where we have a significant presence (New England, New York/New Jersey, Mid-Atlantic, Pacific Northwest, and Northern and Southern California) and where a comparison of operating results from the prior year to the current year is meaningful, as these communities were owned and had stabilized occupancy as of the beginning of the respective prior year period. For the
six
month periods ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
, Established Communities are communities that are consolidated for financial reporting purposes, had stabilized occupancy as of January 1, 2018, are not conducting or are not probable to conduct substantial redevelopment activities and are not held for sale as of
June 30, 2019
or probable for disposition to unrelated third parties within the current year. A community is considered to have stabilized occupancy at the earlier of (i) attainment of
95%
physical occupancy or (ii) the
one
-year anniversary of completion of development or redevelopment.
•
Other Stabilized Communities
are all other completed consolidated communities that have stabilized occupancy, as defined above, as of January 1,
2019
, or which were acquired as of the beginning of the current calendar year. Other Stabilized Communities includes stabilized operating communities in our expansion markets of Denver, Colorado and Southeast Florida, but excludes communities that are conducting or are probable to conduct substantial redevelopment activities within the current year.
•
Lease-Up Communities
are consolidated communities where construction has been complete for less than
one
year and where physical occupancy has not reached
95%
.
•
Redevelopment Communities
are consolidated communities where substantial redevelopment is in progress or is probable to begin during the current year. Redevelopment is considered substantial when capital invested during the reconstruction effort is expected to exceed the lesser of
$5,000,000
or
10%
of the community's pre-redevelopment basis and is expected to have a material impact on the operations of the community, including occupancy levels and future rental rates.
•
Unconsolidated Communities
are communities that we have an indirect ownership interest in through our investment interest in an unconsolidated joint venture.
27
Table of Contents
Development Communities
are communities that are under construction and for which a certificate or certificates of occupancy for the entire community have not been received. These communities may be partially complete and operating.
Development Rights
are development opportunities in the early phase of the development process where we either have an option to acquire land or enter into a leasehold interest, where we are the buyer under a long-term conditional contract to purchase land, where we control the land through a ground lease or own land to develop a new community, or where we are the designated developer in a public-private partnership. We capitalize related pre-development costs incurred in pursuit of new developments for which we currently believe future development is probable.
We currently lease our corporate headquarters located in Arlington, Virginia, as well as our other regional and administrative offices under operating leases.

Results of Operations
Our year-over-year operating performance is primarily affected by both overall and individual geographic market conditions and apartment fundamentals and is reflected in changes in NOI of our Established Communities; NOI derived from acquisitions and development completions; the loss of NOI related to disposed communities. Our operating results are also affected by capital market and financing activity. A comparison of our operating results for the

Net income attributable to common
stockholders decreased
$86,381,000
, or
33.9%
, to
$168,281,000
for the three months ended
June 30, 2019
and decreased
$57,658,000
, or
14.5%
, to
$338,647,000
for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
as compared to the prior year periods. The decreases for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
are primarily due to decreases in real estate sales and related gains and increases in depreciation expense in the current year periods, partially offset by increases in NOI from communities across the portfolio and decreases in interest expense over the prior year periods.
NOI
is considered by management to be an important and appropriate supplemental performance measure to net income because it helps both investors and management to understand the core operations of a community or communities prior to the allocation of any corporate-level or financing-related costs. NOI reflects the operating performance of a community and allows for an easier comparison of the operating performance of individual assets or groups of assets. In addition, because prospective buyers of real estate have different financing and overhead structures, with varying marginal impact to overhead as a result of acquiring real estate, NOI is considered by many in the real estate industry to be a useful measure for determining the value of a real estate asset or group of assets. We define NOI as total property revenue less direct property operating expenses (including property taxes), and excluding corporate-level income (including management, development and other fees), corporate-level property management and other indirect operating expenses, expensed transaction, development and other pursuit costs, net of recoveries, interest expense, net, loss on extinguishment of debt, net, general and administrative expense, equity in income of unconsolidated real estate entities, depreciation expense, corporate income tax expense, casualty and impairment (gain) loss, net, gain on sale of communities, (gain) loss on other real estate transactions, net and net operating income from real estate assets sold or held for sale.
NOI does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, and NOI should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance. NOI should also not be considered an alternative to net cash flow from operating activities, as determined by GAAP, as a measure of liquidity, nor is NOI indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. Reconciliations of NOI for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019

to net income for each period are as follows (unaudited, dollars in thousands):

Historically for periods prior to January 1, 2019, we presented charges related to uncollectible lease revenue in operating expenses. With the adoption of ASU 2016-02, Leases, we are presenting such charges as an adjustment to revenue in our consolidated financial statements on a prospective basis, as of January 1, 2019. For reported segment financial information, including for Established Communities as discussed below, we have also included such charges as an adjustment to revenue for all prior year periods presented in order to provide comparability.
Rental and other income
increased in the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to the prior year periods due to additional rental income generated from newly developed, acquired and existing operating communities and an increase in rental rates at our Established Communities, discussed below. The change in classification of charges for uncollectible lease revenue, as described above, partially offsets the increase in rental and other income for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
over the prior year period.
Consolidated Communities — The weighted average number of occupied apartment homes decreased to
72,323
apartment homes for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, compared to
72,694
homes for the prior year period. The weighted average monthly revenue per occupied apartment home increased to
$2,626
for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to
$2,584
in the prior year period.
Established Communities — Rental revenue increased
$28,935,000
, or
3.3%
, for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to the prior year period due to an increase in average rental rates of
3.5%
to
$2,633
per apartment home, partially offset by a decrease in economic occupancy of
0.2%
to
96.0%
. Economic occupancy takes into account the fact that apartment homes of different sizes and locations within a community have different economic impacts on a community's gross revenue. Economic occupancy is defined as gross potential revenue less vacancy loss, as a percentage of gross potential revenue. Gross potential revenue is determined by valuing occupied homes at leased rates and vacant homes at market rents.
The Metro New York/New Jersey region accounted for
22.4%
of Established Community rental revenue for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, and experienced an increase in rental revenue of
3.1%
compared to the prior year period. Average rental rates increased
3.1%
to
$3,083
per apartment home, and economic occupancy remained consistent at
96.1%
for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, compared to the prior year period. The New York State Housing Stability and Tenant Protection Act of 2019 (the “Act”), which was signed into law on June 14, 2019, now limits some of the fees we previously charged in New York State (including late fees and new lease application fees), eliminates our ability to raise rents on rent stabilized apartments up to the full legal rent when residents with a preferential rent renew their lease, and implements other changes that are expected to limit our rent increases on rent stabilized apartments and increase tenant rights generally. We expect the impact of the Act to be immaterial to our Metro New York/New Jersey results of operations.
The Southern California region accounted for
22.2%
of Established Community rental revenue for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, and experienced an increase in rental revenue of
3.4%
compared to the prior year period. Average rental rates increased
3.7%
to
$2,385
per apartment home, and were partially offset by a
0.3%
decrease in economic occupancy to
95.9%
for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, compared to the prior year period.
The Northern California region accounted for
19.3%
of Established Community rental revenue for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, and experienced an increase in rental revenue of
3.3%
compared to the prior year period. Average rental rates increased
3.9%
to
$3,093
per apartment home, and were partially offset by a
0.6%
decrease in economic occupancy to
96.2%
for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, compared to the prior year period.
The Mid-Atlantic region accounted for
16.0%
of Established Community rental revenue for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, and experienced an increase in rental revenue of
3.0%
compared to the prior year period. Average rental rates increased
2.4%
to
$2,234
per apartment home, and economic occupancy increased
0.6%
to
96.3%
for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, compared to the prior year period.
The New England region accounted for
14.0%
of Established Community rental revenue for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, and experienced an increase in rental revenue of
3.0%
compared to the prior year period. Average rental rates increased
3.2%
to
$2,591
per apartment home, and were partially offset by a
0.2%
decrease in economic occupancy to
95.5%
for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, compared to the prior year period.
The Pacific Northwest region accounted for
6.1%
of Established Community rental revenue for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, and experienced an increase in rental revenue of
4.8%
compared to the prior year period. Average rental rates increased
4.9%
to
$2,344
per apartment home, and were partially offset by a
0.1%
decrease in economic occupancy to
96.4%
for the
six

Direct property operating expenses, excluding property taxes,
decreased
$1,416,000
, or

, and
$10,238,000
, or
4.6%
, for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to the prior year periods. The decreases for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
are primarily due to the change in classification of charges for uncollectible lease revenue, as described above, as well as decreases from dispositions in the prior and current year periods. The decreases are partially offset by increases in expenses related to the addition of newly developed and acquired apartment communities.
For Established Communities, direct property operating expenses, excluding property taxes, increased
$4,074,000
, or
5.1%
, and
$3,802,000
, or
2.4%
, for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to the prior year periods. The increases for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
are primarily due to increased payroll and related benefit expenses, repair and maintenance costs and insurance costs, partially offset by decreased marketing costs.
Property taxes
increased
$2,193,000
, or
3.7%
, and
$3,625,000
, or
3.0%
, for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, compared to the prior year periods. The increases for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
are primarily due to the addition of newly developed and acquired apartment communities, partially offset by decreased property taxes from dispositions.
For Established Communities, property taxes increased
$1,200,000
, or
2.6%
, and
$1,582,000
, or
1.7%
, for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, compared to the prior year periods. The increases for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
are primarily due to increased assessments in the current year period in the Company's East Coast markets, partially offset by successful appeals in Metro New York/New Jersey in the current year periods and decreased tax rates in the Pacific Northwest. The increase for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
is also partially offset by a successful appeal in Northern California in the current year. For communities in California, property tax changes are determined by the change in the California Consumer Price Index, with increases limited by law (Proposition 13). We evaluate property tax increases internally and also engage third-party consultants to assist in our evaluations. We appeal property tax increases when appropriate.
Corporate-level property management and other indirect operating expenses
increased
$3,504,000
, or
17.0%
, and
$4,522,000
, or
11.2%
, for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to increased compensation related costs and spending on corporate initiatives in the current year periods.
Expensed acquisition, development and other pursuit costs, net of recoveries
primarily reflect abandoned pursuit costs, including costs incurred for development pursuits not yet considered probable for development, as well as the abandonment of Development Rights and costs related to abandoned acquisition and disposition pursuits. These costs can be volatile, particularly in periods of increased acquisition pursuit activity, periods of economic downturn or when there is limited access to capital, and therefore may vary significantly from period to period. Expensed acquisition, development and other pursuit costs, net of recoveries, were
$2,711,000
and
$1,047,000
for the three months ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
, respectively, and
$3,806,000
and
$1,847,000
for the six months ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
, respectively. These amounts include selling, general and administrative costs associated with the potential for-sale strategy for the residential portion of the 15 West 61
st
Street development of
$945,000
and
$158,000
for the three months ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
, respectively, and
$1,418,000
and
$158,000
for the six months ended
June 30, 2019
and
2018
, respectively.
Interest expense, net
decreased
$6,575,000
, or
11.6%
, and
$13,796,000
, or
12.4%
, for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, compared to the prior year periods. This category includes interest costs offset by capitalized interest pertaining to development and redevelopment activity, amortization of premium/discount on debt, and interest income. The decreases for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
are primarily due to increases in capitalized interest in the current year periods, as well as decreases in outstanding secured and unsecured indebtedness.
Depreciation expense
increased
$6,008,000
, or
3.8%
, and
$9,006,000
, or
2.9%
, for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to the addition of newly developed and acquired apartment communities, partially offset by dispositions.
General and administrative expense
increased
$3,756,000
, or
24.7%
, and
$3,031,000
, or
10.2%
, for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to increases in compensation related expenses in the current year periods. The increase for the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
is partially offset by a gain from a legal settlement and a decrease in legal fees in the current year period.

Equity in income (loss) of unconsolidated real estate entities
decreased
$592,000
and
$3,392,000
for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, compared to the prior year periods. The decreases for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
are primarily due to non-cash charges, including depreciation of in-place leases, associated with purchase accounting within the NYTA MF Investors LLC unconsolidated venture (the "NYC Joint Venture"), which were not present in the prior year periods.
Gain on sale of communities
decreased for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2019
compared to the prior year periods due to fewer sales in the current year periods. The amount of gain realized in a given period depends on many factors, including the number of communities sold, the size and carrying value of the communities sold and the market conditions in the local area.
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Consistent with the definition adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts® ("NAREIT"), we calculate Funds from Operations Attributable to Common Stockholders ("FFO") as net income or loss attributable to common stockholders computed in accordance with GAAP, adjusted for:
•
gains or losses on sales of previously depreciated operating communities;
•
cumulative effect of change in accounting principle;
•
impairment write-downs of depreciable real estate assets;
•
write-downs of investments in affiliates due to a decrease in the value of depreciable real estate assets held by those affiliates;
•
depreciation of real estate assets; and
•
similar adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
FFO and FFO adjusted for non-core items, or "Core FFO," as defined below, are generally considered by management to be appropriate supplemental measures of our operating and financial performance. In calculating FFO, we exclude gains or losses related to dispositions of previously depreciated property and exclude real estate depreciation, which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates. FFO can help one compare the operating performance of a real estate company between periods or as compared to different companies. By further adjusting for items that are not considered part of our core business operations, Core FFO allows one to compare the core operating performance of the Company between periods. We believe that in order to understand our operating results, FFO and Core FFO should be examined with net income as presented in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report.
We calculate Core FFO as FFO, adjusted for:
•
joint venture gains (if not adjusted through FFO), non-core costs, and promoted interests;
•
casualty and impairment losses or gains, net on non-depreciable real estate;
•
gains or losses from early extinguishment of consolidated borrowings;
•
abandoned pursuits;
•
business interruption insurance proceeds and the related lost NOI that is covered by the business interruption insurance proceeds;
•
property and casualty insurance proceeds and legal settlements;
•
gains or losses on sales of assets not subject to depreciation;
•
advocacy contributions, representing payments to promote our business interests;
•
hedge ineffectiveness;
•
severance related costs;
•
expensed transaction costs,
•
potential residential for-sale condominium marketing and administrative costs and imputed carry cost;
•
income taxes; and
•
other non-core items.
FFO and Core FFO do not represent net income in accordance with GAAP, and therefore should not be considered an alternative to net income, which remains the primary measure, as an indication of our performance. In addition, FFO and Core FFO as calculated by other REITs may not be comparable to our calculations of FFO and Core FFO.
The following is a reconciliation of net income attributable to common stockholders to FFO attributable to common stockholders and to Core FFO attributable to common stockholders (unaudited, dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):

Represents the imputed carry cost of potential for-sale residential condominium units where construction is complete and a potential for-sale condominium strategy is being pursued. We compute this adjustment by multiplying the total capitalized cost of completed and unsold potential for-sale residential condominium units by our weighted average unsecured debt rate.
FFO and Core FFO also do not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, and therefore should not be considered an alternative to net cash flows from operating activities, as determined by GAAP, as a measure of liquidity. Additionally, it is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We employ a disciplined approach to our liquidity and capital management. When we source capital, we take into account both our view of the most cost effective alternative available and our desire to maintain a balance sheet that provides us with flexibility. Our principal short-term liquidity needs are to fund:
•
development and redevelopment activity in which we are currently engaged;
•
the minimum dividend payments on our common stock required to maintain our REIT qualification under the Code;
•
debt service and principal payments either at maturity or opportunistically before maturity; and
•
normal recurring operating expenses and corporate overhead expenses.
Factors affecting our liquidity and capital resources are our cash flows from operations, financing activities and investing activities (including dispositions) as well as general economic and market conditions. Operating cash flow has historically been determined by: (i) the number of apartment homes currently owned, (ii) rental rates, (iii) occupancy levels and (iv) operating expenses with respect to apartment homes. The timing and type of capital markets activity in which we engage, as well as our plans for development, redevelopment, acquisition and disposition activity, are affected by changes in the capital markets environment, such as changes in interest rates or the availability of cost-effective capital. We regularly review our liquidity needs, the adequacy of cash flows from operations and other expected liquidity sources to meet these needs.
We had cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of
$330,044,000
at
June 30, 2019
, an increase of
$112,180,000
from
$217,864,000
at
December 31, 2018
. As presented in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included elsewhere in this report, the following discussion relates to changes in cash due to operating, investing and financing activities.
Operating Activities — Net cash provided by operating activities increased to
$638,267,000
for the
six months ended June 30, 2019
from
$625,297,000
for the
six months ended June 30, 2018
. The change was driven primarily by increased NOI from existing, acquired and newly developed communities.
Investing Activities — Net cash used in investing activities totaled
$590,024,000
for the
six months ended June 30, 2019
. The net cash used was primarily due to:
•
investment of
$560,385,000
in the development and redevelopment of communities;
•
acquisition of
two
wholly-owned operating communities for
$152,260,000
; and
•
capital expenditures of
$52,228,000
for our operating communities and non-real estate assets.
These amounts are partially offset by proceeds from dispositions of
$168,034,000
.
Financing Activities — Net cash provided by financing activities totaled
$63,937,000
for the
six months ended June 30, 2019
. The net cash provided by was primarily due to:
•
proceeds from the issuance of unsecured notes in the amount of
$449,803,000
; and
•
the issuance of common stock in the amount of
$206,193,000
, primarily through CEP IV and CEP V.
These amounts are partially offset by:
•
payment of cash dividends in the amount of
$415,295,000
; and
•
the repayment of mortgage notes payable in the amount of
$137,653,000
.

Variable Rate Unsecured Credit Facility
On February 28, 2019, we entered into a
$1,750,000,000
Fifth Amended and Restated Revolving Loan Agreement (the “Credit Facility”) with a syndicate of banks, which replaces our prior
$1,500,000,000
credit facility dated as of January 14, 2016. The term of the Credit Facility ends on February 28, 2024.
The Credit Facility bears interest at varying levels based on (i) the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) applicable to the period of borrowing for a particular draw of funds from the facility (e.g., one month to maturity, three months to maturity, etc.) and (ii) the rating levels issued for our unsecured notes. The current stated pricing for drawn borrowings is LIBOR plus
0.775%
per annum (
3.00%
at
July 31, 2019
), assuming a one month borrowing rate. The stated spread over LIBOR can vary from LIBOR plus
0.70%
to LIBOR plus
1.45%
based upon the rating of our unsecured notes. The Credit Facility also provides a competitive bid option that is available for borrowings of up to
65%
of the Credit Facility amount. This option allows banks that are part of the lender consortium to bid to provide us loans at a rate that is lower than the stated pricing provided by the unsecured credit facility. The competitive bid option may result in lower pricing than the stated rate if market conditions allow. The annual facility fee for the Credit Facility remained at
0.125%
, resulting in a fee of
$2,188,000
annually based on the
$1,750,000,000
facility size and based on our current credit rating.
We had
no
borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility and had
$21,422,000
outstanding in letters of credit that reduced our borrowing capacity as of
July 31, 2019
. In addition, we had
$16,614,000
outstanding in additional letters of credit as of
July 31, 2019
.
Financial Covenants
We are subject to financial and other covenants contained in the Credit Facility, the Term Loans and the indentures under which our unsecured notes were issued. The principal financial covenants include the following:
•
limitations on the amount of total and secured debt in relation to our overall capital structure;
•
limitations on the amount of our unsecured debt relative to the undepreciated basis of real estate assets that are not encumbered by property-specific financing; and
•
minimum levels of debt service coverage.
We were in compliance with these covenants at
June 30, 2019
.
In addition, our secured borrowings may include yield maintenance, defeasance, or prepayment penalty provisions, which would result in us incurring an additional charge in the event of a full or partial prepayment of outstanding principal before the scheduled maturity. These provisions in our secured borrowings are generally consistent with other similar types of debt instruments issued during the same time period in which our borrowings were originated.
Continuous Equity Offering Program
In December 2015, we commenced a fourth continuous equity program ("CEP IV") under which we were able to sell (and/or enter into forward sale agreements for the sale of) up to
$1,000,000,000
of its common stock from time to time. In conjunction with CEP IV, we engaged sales agents who received compensation up to
2.0%
of the gross sales price for shares sold.
In May 2019, we replaced CEP IV with a new continuous equity program ("CEP V") under which we may sell (and/or enter into forward sale agreements for the sale of) up to
$1,000,000,000
of our common stock from time to time. Actual sales will depend on a variety of factors to be determined, including market conditions, the trading price of our common stock and determinations of the appropriate sources of funding. In conjunction with CEP V, we engaged sales agents who will receive compensation of up to
1.5%
of the gross sales price for shares sold. We expect that, if entered into, we will physically settle each forward sale agreement on one or more dates prior to the maturity date of that particular forward sale agreement, in which case we will expect to receive aggregate net cash proceeds at settlement equal to the number of shares underlying the particular forward agreement multiplied by the relevant forward sale price. However, we may also elect to cash settle or net share settle a forward sale agreement. In connection with each forward sale agreement, we will pay the relevant forward seller, in the form of a reduced initial forward sale price, a commission of up to
1.5%
of the sales prices of all borrowed shares of common stock sold. As of
June 30, 2019
, there are no outstanding forward sales agreements.
During the first quarter of 2019, we sold
755,054
shares at an average sales price of
$198.26
per share, for net proceeds of
$147,450,000
under CEP IV. We did not have any sales under CEP IV during the three months ended
June 30, 2019
. During the
36
Table of Contents
three months ended
June 30, 2019
, we sold
239,580
shares at an average sales price of
$208.70
per share, for net proceeds of
$49,250,000
under CEP V. We have not engaged in sales activity subsequent to
June 30, 2019
. As of
July 31, 2019
, we had
$950,000,000
remaining authorized for issuance under CEP V.
Forward Interest Rate Swap Agreements
During the
six months ended June 30, 2019
, in conjunction with the issuance of our
3.30%
notes due 2029 in May 2019, we settled
$250,000,000
of forward interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges of the interest rate variability of the unsecured notes, making a payment of
$12,309,000
.
During the
six months ended June 30, 2019
, the Company entered into
$250,000,000
of forward interest rate swap agreements executed to reduce the impact of variability in interest rates on a portion of our expected debt issuance activity in 2020, which are outstanding as of
June 30, 2019
. At maturity of the outstanding swap agreements, we expect to cash settle the contracts and either pay or receive cash for the then current fair value. Assuming that we issue the debt as expected, the hedging impact from these positions will then be recognized over the life of the issued debt as a yield adjustment.
Future Financing and Capital Needs — Debt Maturities
One of our principal long-term liquidity needs is the repayment of long-term debt at maturity. For both our unsecured and secured notes, a portion of the principal of these notes may be repaid prior to maturity. Early retirement of our unsecured or secured notes could result in gains or losses on extinguishment. If we do not have funds on hand sufficient to repay our indebtedness as it becomes due, it will be necessary for us to refinance or otherwise provide liquidity to satisfy the debt at maturity. This refinancing may be accomplished by uncollateralized private or public debt offerings, equity issuances, additional debt financing that is secured by mortgages on individual communities or groups of communities or borrowings under our Credit Facility. Although we believe we will have the capacity to meet our currently anticipated liquidity needs, we cannot assure you that additional debt financing or debt or equity offerings will be available or, if available, that they will be on terms we consider satisfactory.
In addition to the Credit Facility discussed in this Form 10-Q, the following debt activity occurred during the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
:
•
In February 2019, we amended and restated the
$250,000,000
variable rate unsecured term loan that we originally entered into in February 2017, of which
$100,000,000
matures in
February 2022
with stated pricing of LIBOR plus
0.90%
, which remained the same, and
$150,000,000
matures in
February 2024
with stated pricing of LIBOR plus
0.85%
that decreased from LIBOR plus
1.50%
.
•
In April 2019, we repaid
$13,363,000
of
2.99%
fixed rate debt and
$33,854,000
of variable rate debt secured by Avalon Natick at par on its maturity date.
•
In May 2019, we repaid
$7,635,000
principal amount of variable rate debt secured by Eaves Mission Viejo at par in advance of its scheduled maturity date. We utilized
$3,706,000
of restricted cash held in a principal reserve fund to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness.
•
In May 2019, we repaid
$20,800,000
principal amount of variable rate debt secured by AVA Nob Hill at par in advance of its scheduled maturity date. We utilized
$10,584,000
of restricted cash held in a principal reserve fund to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness.
•
In May 2019, we repaid
$38,800,000
principal amount of variable rate debt secured by Avalon Campbell at par in advance of its scheduled maturity date. We utilized
$22,622,000
of restricted cash held in a principal reserve fund to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness.
•
In May 2019, we repaid
$17,600,000
principal amount of variable rate debt secured by Eaves Pacifica at par in advance of its scheduled maturity date. We utilized
$10,263,000
of restricted cash held in a principal reserve fund to repay a portion of the outstanding indebtedness.
•
In May 2019, we issued
$450,000,000
principal amount of unsecured notes in a public offering under our existing shelf registration statement for net proceeds of approximately
$446,877,000
. The notes mature in June 2029 and were issued at a
3.30%
interest rate. The effective interest rate of the notes is
3.66%
, including the impact of the interest rate hedge discussed above and offering costs.
37
Table of Contents
In August 2019, in conjunction with the disposition of the wholly-owned operating community, we repaid
$21,700,000
principal amount of variable rate debt secured by Archstone Lexington at par in advance of its October 2020 maturity date. In addition, we entered into a
$30,250,000
fixed rate note secured by Avalon Cerritos, with a contractual interest rate of
3.26%
, maturing in
August 2029
.
The following table details our consolidated debt maturities for the next five years, excluding our Credit Facility and amounts outstanding related to communities classified as held for sale, for debt outstanding at
June 30, 2019
and
December 31, 2018
(dollars in thousands). We are not directly or indirectly (as borrower or guarantor) obligated in any material respect to pay principal or interest on the indebtedness of any unconsolidated entities in which we have an equity or other interest.

Future Financing and Capital Needs — Portfolio and Capital Markets Activity
During the remainder of
2019
, we expect to meet our liquidity needs from one or more of a variety of internal and external sources, which may include (i) real estate dispositions, (ii) cash balances on hand as well as cash generated from our operating activities, (iii) borrowing capacity under our Credit Facility and (iv) secured and unsecured debt financings. Additional sources of liquidity in
2019
may include the issuance of common and preferred equity. Our ability to obtain additional financing will depend on a variety of factors, such as market conditions, the general availability of credit, the overall availability of credit to the real estate industry, our credit ratings and credit capacity, as well as the perception of lenders regarding our long or short-term financial prospects.
Before beginning new construction or reconstruction activity, including activity related to communities owned by unconsolidated joint ventures, we intend to plan adequate financing to complete these undertakings, although we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain such financing. In the event that financing cannot be obtained, we may have to abandon Development Rights, write-off associated pre-development costs that were capitalized and/or forego reconstruction activity. In such instances, we will not realize the increased revenues and earnings that we expected from such Development Rights or reconstruction activity and significant losses could be incurred.
From time to time we use joint ventures to hold or develop individual real estate assets. We generally employ joint ventures primarily to mitigate asset concentration or market risk and secondarily as a source of liquidity. We may also use joint ventures related to mixed-use land development opportunities and new markets where our partners bring development and operational expertise and/or experience to the venture. Each joint venture or partnership agreement has been individually negotiated, and our ability to operate and/or dispose of a community in our sole discretion may be limited to varying degrees depending on the terms of the joint venture or partnership agreement. We cannot assure you that we will achieve our objectives through joint ventures.

Table of Contents
In evaluating our allocation of capital within our markets, we sell assets that do not meet our long-term investment criteria or when capital and real estate markets allow us to realize a portion of the value created over our ownership periods and redeploy the proceeds from those sales to develop and redevelop communities. Because the proceeds from the sale of communities may not be immediately redeployed into revenue generating assets that we develop, redevelop or acquire, the immediate effect of a sale of a community for a gain is to increase net income, but reduce future total revenues, total expenses and NOI until such time as the proceeds have been redeployed into revenue generating assets. We believe that the temporary absence of future cash flows from communities sold will not have a material impact on our ability to fund future liquidity and capital resource needs.
Unconsolidated Real Estate Investments and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Unconsolidated Investments
As of
June 30, 2019
, we had investments in unconsolidated real estate accounted for under the equity method of accounting shown in the following table, excluding joint ventures formed with Equity Residential as part of the Archstone acquisition. Refer to Note 5, "Investments in Real Estate Entities," of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report, which includes information on the aggregate assets, liabilities and equity, as well as operating results, and our proportionate share of their operating results. For ventures holding operating apartment communities as of

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
In addition to our investment interests in consolidated and unconsolidated real estate entities, we have certain off-balance sheet arrangements with the entities in which we invest. Additional discussion of these entities can be found in Note 5, "Investments in Real Estate Entities," of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report.
We have not guaranteed the debt of our unconsolidated real estate entities, as referenced in the table above, nor do we have any obligation to fund this debt should the unconsolidated real estate entities be unable to do so. In the future, in the event the unconsolidated real estate entities were unable to meet their obligations under a loan, we cannot predict at this time whether we would provide any voluntary support, or take any other action, as any such action would depend on a variety of factors, including the amount of support required and the possibility that such support could enhance the return of the unconsolidated real estate entities and/or our returns by providing time for performance to improve.
There are no other material lines of credit, side agreements, financial guarantees or any other derivative financial instruments related to or between our unconsolidated real estate entities and us. In evaluating our capital structure and overall leverage, management takes into consideration our proportionate share of the indebtedness of unconsolidated entities in which we have an interest.
Contractual Obligations
We currently have contractual obligations consisting primarily of long-term debt obligations and lease obligations for certain land parcels and regional and administrative office space. We adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases, as of January 1, 2019, and the prospective adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our contractual lease obligations. Disclosures detailing the adoption and the associated contractual obligations can be found in Note 1, "Organization, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies," and Note 7, "Commitments and Contingencies," of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report. As of
June 30, 2019
, other than as discussed in this Form 10-Q, there have been no other material changes in our scheduled contractual obligations as disclosed in our Form 10-K.
Development Communities
As of
June 30, 2019
, we owned or held a direct or indirect interest in
21
Development Communities under construction. We expect these Development Communities, when completed, to add a total of
7,023
apartment homes and
94,000
square feet of retail space to our portfolio for a total capitalized cost, including land acquisition costs, of approximately
$2,578,000,000
. Additionally, we are pursuing a potential for-sale strategy of individual condominium units for the residential portion of the 15 West 61st Street development, which is currently under construction and contains
172
residential units and
67,000
square feet of retail space for a projected total capitalized cost of
$624,000,000
. We currently intend to own and operate the retail portion of the development. We cannot assure you that we will meet our schedule for construction completion or that we will meet our budgeted costs, either individually or in the aggregate. You should carefully review Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of our Form 10-K for a discussion of the risks associated with development activity.
The following table presents a summary of the Development Communities. We hold a fee simple ownership interest in these communities (directly or through a wholly-owned subsidiary) unless otherwise noted in the table.

Projected total capitalized cost for communities identified as having joint venture ownership, either during construction or upon construction completion, represents the total projected joint venture contribution amount unless otherwise noted.

Total capitalized cost is as of

We anticipate commencing the construction of

1,200
apartment homes and be constructed for a total capitalized cost of

Redevelopment Communities
As of
June 30, 2019
, there were
seven
communities under active redevelopment. We expect the total capitalized cost to redevelop these communities to be
$135,000,000
, excluding costs incurred prior to redevelopment. We have found that the cost to redevelop an existing apartment community is more difficult to budget and estimate than the cost to develop a new community. Accordingly, we expect that actual costs may vary from our budget by a wider range than for a new Development Community. We cannot assure you that we will meet our schedule for reconstruction completion or for attaining restabilized operations, or that we will meet our budgeted costs, either individually or in the aggregate. You should carefully review Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of our Form 10-K for a discussion of the risks associated with redevelopment activity.

Development Rights
At
June 30, 2019
, we had
$18,606,000
in acquisition and related capitalized costs for direct interests in land parcels we own, and
$60,217,000
in capitalized costs (including legal fees, design fees and related overhead costs) related to Development Rights for which we control the land parcel, typically through a conditional agreement or option to purchase or lease the land. Collectively, the land held for development and associated costs for deferred development rights relate to
28
Development Rights for which we expect to develop new apartment communities in the future. The cumulative capitalized costs for land held for development as of
June 30, 2019
includes
$16,842,000
in original land acquisition costs, net of any impairment loss recognized. The Development Rights range from those beginning design and architectural planning to those that have completed site plans and drawings and can begin construction almost immediately. We estimate that the successful completion of all of these communities would ultimately add approximately
9,004
apartment homes to our portfolio. Substantially all of these apartment homes will offer features like those offered by the communities we currently own.
For
21
Development Rights, we control the land through a conditional agreement or option to purchase or lease the parcel. While we generally prefer to hold Development Rights through conditional agreements or options to acquire land, for
one
Development Right we currently own the land on which a community would be built if we proceeded with development. In addition,
six
Development Rights are additional development phases of existing stabilized operating communities we own, and will be constructed on land currently adjacent to or directly associated with those operating communities. During the next 12 months we expect to commence construction of an apartment community on the Development Right for which we currently own the land, with a carrying basis of
$16,150,000
.
The properties comprising the Development Rights are in different stages of the due diligence and regulatory approval process. The decisions as to which of the Development Rights to invest in, if any, or to continue to pursue once an investment in a Development Right is made, are business judgments that we make after we perform financial, demographic and other analyses. In the event that we do not proceed with a Development Right, we generally would not recover any of the capitalized costs incurred in the pursuit of those communities, unless we were to recover amounts in connection with the sale of land; however, we cannot guarantee a recovery. Pre-development costs incurred in the pursuit of Development Rights for which future development is not yet considered probable are expensed as incurred. In addition, if the status of a Development Right changes, making future development no longer probable, any capitalized pre-development costs are charged to expense. During the
six
months ended
June 30, 2019
, we incurred a charge of
$2,388,000
for expensed transaction, development and other pursuit costs, net of recoveries, which include development pursuits that were not yet probable of future development at the time incurred, and pursuits that we determined were no longer probable of being developed.
You should carefully review Item 1A. "Risk Factors" of our Form 10-K for a discussion of the risks associated with Development Rights.

Insurance and Risk of Uninsured Losses
We maintain commercial general liability insurance and property insurance with respect to all of our communities. These policies, along with other insurance policies we maintain, have policy specifications, insured and self-insured limits, exclusions and deductibles that we consider commercially reasonable. There are, however, certain types of losses (including, but not limited to, losses arising from nuclear liability or acts of war) that are not insured, in full or in part, because they are either uninsurable or the cost of insurance makes it, in management’s view, economically impractical. You should carefully review the discussion under Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of our Form 10-K for a discussion of risks associated with an uninsured property or casualty loss.
Many of our West Coast communities are located in the general vicinity of active earthquake faults. Many of our communities are near, and thus susceptible to, the major fault lines in California, including the San Andreas Fault, the Hayward Fault or other geological faults that are known or unknown. We cannot assure you that an earthquake would not cause damage or losses greater than our current insured levels. We procure property damage and resulting business interruption insurance coverage with a loss limit of $175,000,000 for any single occurrence and in the annual aggregate for losses resulting from earthquakes. However, for any losses resulting from earthquakes at communities located in California or Washington, the loss limit is $200,000,000 for any single occurrence and in the annual aggregate. The deductible applicable to losses resulting from earthquakes occurring in California is five percent of the insured value of each damaged building subject to a minimum of $100,000 and a maximum of $25,000,000 per loss. Limits, deductibles, self-insured retentions and coverages may increase or decrease annually during the insurance renewal process which occurs on different dates throughout the calendar year.
Our communities are insured for certain property damage and business interruption losses through a combination of community specific insurance policies and/or a master property insurance program which covers the majority of our communities. This master property program provides a $400,000,000 limit for any single occurrence, subject to certain sublimits and exclusions. Under the master property program, we are subject to a $100,000 deductible per occurrence, as well as additional self-insured retention for the next $350,000 of loss, per occurrence, until the aggregate incurred self-insured retention exceeds $1,500,000 for the policy year.
Our communities are insured for third-party liability losses through a combination of community specific insurance policies and/or coverage provided under a master commercial general liability and umbrella/excess insurance program. The master commercial general liability and umbrella/excess insurance policies cover the majority of our communities and are subject to certain coverage limitations and exclusions, and they require a self-insured retention of $500,000 per occurrence.
We also maintain certain casualty policies (general liability, umbrella/excess and workers compensation) for construction related risks which have various exclusions and deductibles that, in management’s view, are commercially reasonable. Certain projects are insured through our master insurance policies while others are insured through project-specific insurance policies. The limits vary by project and may be subject to deductibles up to $1,500,000 per occurrence.
We utilize a wholly-owned captive insurance company to insure certain types and amounts of risks, which includes property damage and resulting business interruption losses, general liability insurance and other construction related liability risks. In addition to our potential liability for the various policy self-insured retentions and deductibles, our captive insurance company is directly responsible for (i) 50% of the first $25,000,000 of losses (per occurrence) and 10% of the first $50,000,000 of loss (per occurrence) incurred by the master property insurance policy and (ii) covered liability claims arising out of our primary commercial general liability policy, subject to a $2,000,000 per occurrence loss limit. The captive is utilized to insure other limited levels of risk, which may be in part reinsured by third party insurance.
Just as with office buildings, transportation systems and government buildings, there have been reports that apartment communities could become targets of terrorism. Our communities are insured for terrorism related losses through the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act (“TRIPRA”) program. This coverage extends to most of our casualty exposures (subject to deductibles and insured limits) and certain property insurance policies. We have also purchased private-market insurance for property damage due to terrorism with limits of $600,000,000 per occurrence and in the annual aggregate that includes certain coverages (not covered under TRIPRA) such as domestic-based terrorism. This insurance, often referred to as “non-certified” terrorism insurance, is subject to deductibles, limits and exclusions.

Inflation and Deflation
Substantially all of our apartment leases are for a term of one year or less. In an inflationary environment, this may allow us to realize increased rents upon renewal of existing leases or the beginning of new leases. Short-term leases generally minimize our risk from the adverse effects of inflation, although these leases generally permit residents to leave at the end of the lease term and therefore expose us to the effect of a decline in market rents. Similarly, in a deflationary rent environment, we may be exposed to declining rents more quickly under these shorter-term leases.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Form 10-Q contains "forward-looking statements" as that term is defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You can identify forward-looking statements by our use of the words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "assume," "project," "plan," "may," "shall," "will" and other similar expressions in this Form 10-Q, that predict or indicate future events and trends and that do not report historical matters. These statements include, among other things, statements regarding our intent, belief or expectations with respect to:
•
our potential development, redevelopment, acquisition or disposition of communities;
•
the timing and cost of completion of apartment communities under construction, reconstruction, development or redevelopment;
•
the timing of lease-up, occupancy and stabilization of apartment communities;
•
the pursuit of land on which we are considering future development;
•
the anticipated operating performance of our communities;
•
cost, yield, revenue, NOI and earnings estimates;
•
our declaration or payment of dividends;
•
our joint venture and discretionary fund activities;
•
our policies regarding investments, indebtedness, acquisitions, dispositions, financings and other matters;
•
our qualification as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code;
•
the real estate markets in Northern and Southern California, Denver, Colorado, and Southeast Florida, and markets in selected states in the Mid-Atlantic, New England, Metro New York/New Jersey and Pacific Northwest regions of the United States and in general;
•
the availability of debt and equity financing;
•
interest rates;
•
general economic conditions including the potential impacts from current economic conditions;
•
trends affecting our financial condition or results of operations; and
•
the impact of outstanding legal proceedings.
We cannot assure the future results or outcome of the matters described in these statements; rather, these statements merely reflect our current expectations of the approximate outcomes of the matters discussed. We do not undertake a duty to update these forward-looking statements, and therefore they may not represent our estimates and assumptions after the date of this report. You should not rely on forward-looking statements because they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. These risks, uncertainties and other factors may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from the anticipated future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. You should carefully review the discussion under Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in this report, for further discussion of risks associated with forward-looking statements.

Table of Contents
Some of the factors that could cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following:
•
we may fail to secure development opportunities due to an inability to reach agreements with third-parties to obtain land at attractive prices or to obtain desired zoning and other local approvals;
•
we may abandon or defer development opportunities for a number of reasons, including changes in local market conditions which make development less desirable, increases in costs of development, increases in the cost of capital or lack of capital availability, resulting in losses;
•
construction costs of a community may exceed our original estimates;
•
we may not complete construction and lease-up of communities under development or redevelopment on schedule, resulting in increased interest costs and construction costs and a decrease in our expected rental revenues;
•
occupancy rates and market rents may be adversely affected by competition and local economic and market conditions which are beyond our control;
•
financing may not be available on favorable terms or at all, and our cash flows from operations and access to cost effective capital may be insufficient for the development of our pipeline which could limit our pursuit of opportunities;
•
our cash flows may be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest, and we may be unable to refinance existing indebtedness or the terms of such refinancing may not be as favorable as the terms of existing indebtedness;
•
we may be unsuccessful in our management of the U.S. Fund, the AC JV or the REIT vehicles that are used with each respective joint venture;
•
we may be unsuccessful in managing changes in our portfolio composition;
•
laws and regulations implementing rent control or rent stabilization, or otherwise limiting our ability to increase rents, charge fees or evict tenants, may impact our revenue or increase our costs; and
•
our expectations, estimates and assumptions as of the date of this filing regarding outstanding legal proceedings are subject to change.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions had been different, or different assumptions were made, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied, resulting in different financial results or a different presentation of our financial statements. We have reassessed our critical accounting policies previously disclosed in Management's Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operations in our Form 10-K, and have determined that certain policies described in our Form 10-K no longer require complex or significant judgment in their application. As a result, we have updated our critical accounting policies to consist of the following: (i) cost capitalization and (ii) abandoned pursuit costs and asset impairment, as included in the discussion of our significant accounting policies found in Management's Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operations in our Form 10-K.

CONTROL AND PROCEDURES
(a)
Evaluation of 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 as of
June 30, 2019
. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms.
We continue to review and document our disclosure controls and procedures, including our internal controls and procedures for financial reporting, and may from time to time make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness and to ensure that our systems evolve with our business.
(b)
Changes in internal controls over financial reporting.
As of January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases. The Company implemented internal controls related to the lease accounting process, but there were no significant changes to the internal control over financial reporting due to the adoption of this new standard.
PART II.
OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Following the filing of a petition by Local 30 of the International Union of Operating Engineers ("Local 30"), on April 23, 2019 an election was held among our non-management, on-site maintenance associates at our Westchester County, New York operating communities, and the associates elected to be represented by Local 30 in collective bargaining. The Company has filed an objection with the National Labor Relations Board contesting the election on various grounds. Following the Westchester County election, Local 30 filed a petition to represent our non-management, on-site maintenance associates at our Connecticut operating communities, and the associates elected to not be represented by Local 30 in collective bargaining. The Company does not believe that these matters pertaining to Local 30 and their possible representation of our maintenance associates in Westchester County will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or its results of operations.
The Company is involved in various other claims and/or administrative proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. While no assurances can be given, the Company does not believe that any of these outstanding litigation matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or its results of operations.
ITEM 1A.
RISK FACTORS

Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results in the future. There have been no material changes to our risk factors since
