EXPLANATORY NOTE
This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
March 31, 2014
of Regency Centers Corporation and Regency Centers, L.P. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to “Regency Centers Corporation” or the “Parent Company” mean Regency Centers Corporation and its controlled subsidiaries; and references to “Regency Centers, L.P.” or the “Operating Partnership” mean Regency Centers, L.P. and its controlled subsidiaries. The term “the Company” or “Regency” means the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, collectively.
The Parent Company is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) and the general partner of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership's capital includes general and limited common Partnership Units (“Units”). As of
March 31, 2014
, the Parent Company owned approximately
99.8%
of the Units in the Operating Partnership and the remaining limited Units are owned by investors. The Parent Company owns all of the Series 6 and 7 Preferred Units of the Operating Partnership. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company has exclusive control of the Operating Partnership's day-to-day management.
The Company believes combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership into this single report provides the following benefits:
•
enhances investors' understanding of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;
•
eliminates duplicative disclosure and provides a more streamlined and readable presentation; and
•
creates time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.
Management operates the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership as one business. The management of the Parent Company consists of the same individuals as the management of the Operating Partnership. These individuals are officers of the Parent Company and employees of the Operating Partnership.
The Company believes it is important to understand the few differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership in the context of how the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership operate as a consolidated company. The Parent Company is a REIT, whose only material asset is its ownership of partnership interests of the Operating Partnership. As a result, the Parent Company does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, issuing public equity from time to time and guaranteeing certain debt of the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company does not hold any indebtedness, but guarantees all of the unsecured public debt and
approximately
18%
of the
secured debt of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership holds all the assets of the Company and retains the ownership interests in the Company's joint ventures. Except for net proceeds from public equity issuances by the Parent Company, which are contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for partnership units, the Operating Partnership generates all remaining capital required by the Company's business. These sources include the Operating Partnership's operations, its direct or indirect incurrence of indebtedness, and the issuance of partnership units.
Stockholders' equity, partners' capital, and noncontrolling interests are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of the Parent Company and those of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership's capital includes general and limited common Partnership Units, and Series 6 and 7 Preferred Units owned by the Parent Company. The limited partners' units in the Operating Partnership owned by third parties are accounted for in partners' capital in the Operating Partnership's financial statements and outside of stockholders' equity in noncontrolling interests in the Parent Company's financial statements. The Series 6 and 7 Preferred Units owned by the Parent Company are eliminated in consolidation in the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Parent Company and are classified as preferred units of general partner in the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Operating Partnership.
In order to highlight the differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, there are sections in this report that separately discuss the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, including separate financial statements, controls and procedures sections, and separate Exhibit 31 and 32 certifications. In the sections that combine disclosure for the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, this report refers to actions or holdings as being actions or holdings of the Company.
As general partner with control of the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting purposes, and the Parent Company does not have assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership. Therefore, while stockholders' equity and partners' capital differ as discussed above, the assets and liabilities of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership are the same on their respective financial statements.

1.
Organization and Principles of Consolidation
General
Regency Centers Corporation (the “Parent Company”) began its operations as a Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) in
1993
and is the general partner of Regency Centers, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”). The Parent Company currently owns approximately
99.8%
of the outstanding common Partnership Units of the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company engages in the ownership, management, leasing, acquisition, and development of retail shopping centers through the Operating Partnership, and has no other assets or liabilities other than through its investment in the Operating Partnership. As of
March 31, 2014
, the Parent Company, the Operating Partnership and their controlled subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (the "Company” or “Regency”) directly owned
206
retail shopping centers and held partial interests in an additional
126
retail shopping centers through investments in real estate partnerships (also referred to as "joint ventures" or "co-investment partnerships").
The financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. These adjustments are considered to be of a normal recurring nature.
Reclassification and Immaterial Correction to Prior Period Financial Statements
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. In addition, the Company has corrected the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows related to the timing of payments for development activity that were not correctly reclassified to investing activity. The correction was a reclassification between cash flows from operating activities and cash flows from investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The correction resulted in an increase in cash flows from operating activities of
$2.0 million
during the three months ended March 31, 2013, with a corresponding decrease in cash flow from investing activity during the same period, which the Company has concluded was not significant.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
On January 1, 2014, the Company prospectively adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, and all sales will be recorded in accordance with the ASU. The amendments in the ASU change the requirements for reporting discontinued operations. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. Those strategic shifts should have a major effect on the organization's operations and financial results. In addition, the new guidance requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income, and expenses of discontinued operations.

Derivatives in an asset position are included within Other Assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, while those in a liability position are included within Accounts Payable and Other Liabilities.
These derivative financial instruments are all interest rate swaps, which are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges. The Company does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and currently does not have any derivatives that are not designated as hedges. The Company has master netting agreements, however the Company does not have multiple derivatives subject to a single master netting agreement with the same counterparties. Therefore, none are offset in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The Company expects to issue new debt in
2014
and
2015
. In order to mitigate the risk of interest rates rising before new borrowings are obtained, the Company entered into
$440 million
of forward starting interest rate swaps for the new debt expected to be issued in
2014
and
2015
. These interest rate swaps lock in the 10-year treasury rate and swap spread at a weighted average fixed rate of
2.55%
.
A current market based credit spread applicable to Regency will be added to the locked in fixed rate at time of issuance that will determine the final bond yield.
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings within interest expense.

The table above reflects carrying amounts in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets under the indicated captions. The above fair values represent the amounts that would be received from selling those assets or that would be paid to transfer those liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants as of
March 31, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
. These fair value measurements maximize the use of observable inputs. However, in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date, the fair value measurement reflects the Company's own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The Company develops its judgments based on the best information available at the measurement date, including expected cash flows, appropriately risk-adjusted discount rates, and available observable and unobservable inputs. Service providers involved in fair value measurements are evaluated for competency and qualifications on an ongoing basis. The Company's valuation policies and procedures are determined by its Finance Group, which reports to the Chief Financial Officer, and the results of material fair value measurements are discussed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors on a quarterly basis. As considerable judgment is often necessary to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments, the fair values presented above are not necessarily indicative of amounts that will be realized upon disposition of the financial instruments.
18
REGENCY CENTERS CORPORATION AND REGENCY CENTERS, L.P.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2014
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments:
Notes Receivable
The fair value of the Company's notes receivable is estimated by calculating the present value of future contractual cash flows discounted at interest rates available for notes of the same terms and maturities, adjusted for counter-party specific credit risk. The fair value of notes receivable was determined primarily using Level 3 inputs of the fair value hierarchy, which considered counter-party credit risk and loan to value ratio on the underlying property securing the note receivable.
Notes Payable
The fair value of the Company's notes payable is estimated by discounting future cash flows of each instrument at rates that reflect the current market rates available to the Company for debt of the same terms and maturities. Fixed rate loans assumed in connection with real estate acquisitions are recorded in the accompanying consolidated financial statements at fair value at the time the property is acquired. The fair value of the notes payable was determined using Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy.
Unsecured Credit Facilities
The fair value of the Company's unsecured credit facilities is estimated based on the interest rates currently offered to the Company by financial institutions. The fair value of the credit facilities was determined using Level 2 inputs of the fair value hierarchy.
As of
March 31, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
, the following interest rate ranges were used by the Company to estimate the fair value of its financial instruments:

(b) Fair Value Measurements
The following financial instruments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:
Trading Securities Held in Trust
The Company has investments in marketable securities that are classified as trading securities held in trust on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value of the trading securities held in trust was determined using quoted prices in active markets, which are considered Level 1 inputs of the fair value hierarchy. Changes in the value of trading securities are recorded within net investment (income) loss from deferred compensation plan in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Interest Rate Derivatives
The fair value of the Company's interest rate derivatives is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty's nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements.
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, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by the
19
REGENCY CENTERS CORPORATION AND REGENCY CENTERS, L.P.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2014
Company and its counterparties. The Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its interest rate swaps. As a result, the Company determined that its interest rate swaps valuation in its entirety is classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The following tables present the placement in the fair value hierarchy of assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of

Long-lived assets held and used are comprised primarily of real estate. During the
three months ended
March 31, 2014
, the Company recognized a
$225,000
impairment on
three
parcels of land.
During the year ended
December 31, 2013
, the Company recognized a
$6 million
impairment on a single operating property as a result of an unoccupied anchor declaring bankruptcy, and the inability of the Company, thus far, to re-lease the anchor space.
Fair value for the long-lived assets held and used measured using Level 3 inputs was determined through the use of an income approach. The income approach estimates an income stream for a property (typically 10 years) and discounts this income plus a reversion (presumed sale) into a present value at a risk adjusted rate. Yield rates and growth assumptions utilized in this approach are derived from property specific information, market transactions, and other financial and industry data. The terminal cap rate and discount rate are significant inputs to this valuation. The fair value of real estate measured as of
March 31, 2014
, is based on the anticipated sales price of the land. The following are the key inputs used in determining the fair value of real estate measured using Level 3 inputs as of
December 31, 2013
:
2013
Direct cap rates
8.0
%
Rental growth rates
0.0
%
Discount rates
9.0
%
Terminal cap rates
8.5
%
Changes in these inputs could result in a significant change in the valuation of the real estate and a change in the impairment loss recognized during the period.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2014
12. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is involved in litigation on a number of matters and is subject to certain claims, which arise in the normal course of business, none of which, in the opinion of management, is expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. Legal fees are expensed as incurred.
The Company is also subject to numerous environmental laws and regulations as they apply to real estate pertaining to chemicals used by the dry cleaning industry, the existence of asbestos in older shopping centers, and underground petroleum storage tanks. The Company believes that the ultimate disposition of currently known environmental matters will not have a material effect on its financial position, liquidity, or operations; however, it can give no assurance that existing environmental studies with respect to the shopping centers have revealed all potential environmental liabilities; that any previous owner, occupant or tenant did not create any material environmental condition not known to it; that the current environmental condition of the shopping centers will not be affected by tenants and occupants, by the condition of nearby properties, or by unrelated third parties; or that changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations or their interpretation will not result in additional environmental liability to the Company.
The Company has the right to issue letters of credit under the Line up to an amount not to exceed
$80.0 million
, which reduces the credit availability under the Line. The Company also has stand alone letters of credit with other banks. These letters of credit are primarily issued as collateral to facilitate the construction of development projects. As of
March 31, 2014
and
December 31, 2013
, the Company had
$19.3 million
letters of credit outstanding.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
In addition to historical information, the following information contains forward-looking statements as defined under federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements include statements about anticipated changes in our revenues, the size of our development and redevelopment program, earnings per share and unit, returns and portfolio value, and expectations about our liquidity. These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the real estate industry and markets in which the Company operates, and management's beliefs and assumptions. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, changes in national and local economic conditions; financial difficulties of tenants; competitive market conditions, including timing and pricing of acquisitions and sales of properties and building pads ("out-parcels"); changes in leasing activity and market rents; timing of development starts; meeting development schedules; natural disasters in geographic areas in which we operate; cost of environmental remediation; our inability to exercise voting control over the co-investment partnerships through which we own many of our properties; and technology disruptions. For additional information, see “Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2013
. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto of Regency Centers Corporation and Regency Centers, L.P. appearing elsewhere herein. We do not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to such forward-looking statements to reflect events or uncertainties after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of uncertain events.
Overview of Our Strategy
Regency Centers Corporation began its operations as a REIT in 1993 and is the managing general partner of Regency Centers, L.P. We endeavor to be a preeminent, best-in-class grocery-anchored shopping center company, distinguished by total shareholder return and per share growth in Core Funds from Operations ("Core FFO") and Net Asset Value ("NAV"). We work to achieve these goals through:
•
reliable growth in net operating income ("NOI") from a high-quality, growing portfolio of thriving, neighborhood and community shopping centers;
•
disciplined value-add development and redevelopment activities that profitably create and enhance high-quality shopping centers;
•
a conservative balance sheet and track record of accessing capital in a cost effective manner to withstand market volatility and to efficiently fund investments; and,
•
an engaged and talented team of people reflecting our culture.
All of our operating, investing, and financing activities are performed through the Operating Partnership, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and through its co-investment partnerships. The Parent Company currently owns approximately
99.8%
of the outstanding common partnership units of the Operating Partnership.
As of
March 31, 2014
, we directly owned
206
shopping centers (the “Consolidated Properties”) located in
24
states representing
23.1 million
square feet of gross leasable area (“GLA”). Through co-investment partnerships, we own partial ownership interests in
126
shopping centers (the “Unconsolidated Properties”) located in
23
states and the District of Columbia representing
15.5 million
square feet of GLA.
We earn revenues and generate cash flow by leasing space in our shopping centers to grocery stores, major retail anchors, restaurants, side-shop retailers, and service providers, as well as ground leasing or selling building pads to these same types of tenants. We experience growth in revenues by increasing occupancy and rental rates in our existing shopping centers and by acquiring and developing new shopping centers. As of
March 31, 2014
, our Consolidated Properties were
94.3%
leased, as compared to
93.9%
as of
March 31, 2013
and
94.5%
as of
December 31, 2013
.
We grow our shopping center portfolio through acquisitions of operating centers and new shopping center development. We will continue to use our development capabilities, market presence, and anchor relationships to invest in value-added new developments and redevelopments of existing centers. Development serves the growth needs of our anchors and retailers, resulting in high-quality shopping centers with long-term anchor leases that produce attractive returns on our invested capital and we generally have an executed lease from the anchor tenant before we start construction. The development process typically requires two to three years once construction has commenced, but can vary subject to the size and complexity of the project. We fund our acquisition and development activity from various capital sources including property sales, equity offerings, and new debt.
27
Co-investment partnerships provide us with an additional capital source for shopping center acquisitions, developments, and redevelopments, as well as the opportunity to earn fees for asset management, property management, and other investing and financing services. As an asset manager, we are engaged by our partners to apply similar operating, investment, and capital strategies to the portfolios owned by the co-investment partnerships as those applied to the portfolio that we wholly-own.

We seek to reduce our operating and leasing risks through geographic diversification, avoiding dependence on any single property, market, or tenant, and owning a portion of our shopping centers through co-investment partnerships. The
28
following table summarizes our three most significant tenants, each of which is a grocery tenant, occupying our shopping centers at

(2)

In March 2014, Safeway and Albertsons announced a definitive agreement to merge. In addition to the number of stores leased by Safeway noted above, we have 11 stores with Albertsons, representing 1% of annualized base rent. There is the possibility that store closures could occur at either of the grocery chains as a result of the merger.
Although base rent is supported by long-term lease contracts, tenants who file bankruptcy may have the legal right to reject any or all of their leases and close related stores. In the event that a tenant with a significant number of leases in our shopping centers files bankruptcy and cancels its leases, we could experience a significant reduction in our revenues. We monitor the operating performance and rent collections of all tenants in our shopping centers, especially those tenants operating retail formats that are experiencing significant changes in competition, business practice, and store closings in other locations.
Our management team devotes significant time to monitoring consumer preferences, shopping behaviors, and demographics to anticipate both challenges and opportunities in the changing retail industry that may affect our tenants. As a result of our findings, we may reduce new leasing, suspend leasing, or curtail the allowance for the construction of leasehold improvements within a certain retail category or to a specific retailer. We are not currently aware of the pending bankruptcy or announced store closings of any tenants in our shopping centers that would individually cause a material reduction in our revenues, and no tenant represents more than 5% of our annual base rent on a pro-rata basis.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our Parent Company has no capital commitments other than its guarantees of the commitments of our Operating Partnership. The Parent Company will from time to time access the capital markets for the purpose of issuing new equity and will simultaneously contribute all of the offering proceeds to the Operating Partnership in exchange for additional partnership units. All debt is issued by our Operating Partnership or by our co-investment partnerships. The following table represents the remaining available capacity under our ATM equity program and Line as of

Net cash provided by operating activities:
Net cash provided by operating activities during the
three months ended
March 31, 2014
was
$11.0 million
more than the
three months ended
March 31, 2013
primarily due to higher net income and timing of cash receipts and payments within operating activities. We operate our business such that we expect net cash provided by operating activities will provide the necessary funds to pay our distributions to our common and preferred share and unit holders, which were
$48.3 million
and
$41.4 million
for the
three months ended
March 31, 2014
and
2013
, respectively. Our dividend distribution policy is set by our Board of Directors who monitor our financial position. Our Board of Directors recently declared our common stock quarterly dividend of $0.47 per share, payable on June 4, 2014. Future dividends will be declared at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will be subject to capital requirements and availability. We plan to continue paying an aggregate amount of distributions to our stock and unit holders that, at a minimum, meet the requirements to continue qualifying as a REIT for Federal income tax purposes.
Net cash used in investing activities:
Net cash used in investing activities during the
three months ended
March 31, 2014
increased by
$87.0 million
compared to the
three months ended
March 31, 2013
, primarily due to the acquisitions of shopping centers in 2014 and increased capital expenditures during 2014.
Significant investing and divesting activities during the
three months ended
March 31, 2014
include:
•
We received proceeds of
$4.5 million
from the sale of real estate investments, including
one
shopping center and
two
out-parcels;
•
We paid
$78.9 million
, net of debt assumed and other liabilities, for the acquisition of the 80% controlling interest in
three
shopping centers located in Fairfield, CT and
one
wholly-owned shopping center located in Austin, TX; and,
•
We paid

The increase in redevelopment costs is primarily due to the timing of our redevelopment projects. The redevelopment costs were higher in the three months ended March 31, 2014 primarily due to two redevelopments that started after March 31, 2013.
At

There were no development projects completed during the
three months ended
March 31, 2014
.
We plan to continue developing and redeveloping projects for long-term investment purposes and have a staff of employees who directly support our development and redevelopment program. Internal costs attributable to these development and redevelopment activities are capitalized as part of each project. During the
three months ended
March 31, 2014
, we capitalized
$1.6 million
of interest expense and
$3.0 million
of internal costs for salaries and related benefits for development and redevelopment activity. Changes in the level of future development and redevelopment activity could adversely impact results of operations by reducing the amount of internal costs for development and redevelopment projects that may be capitalized. A 10% reduction in development and redevelopment activity without a corresponding reduction in the compensation costs directly related to our development and redevelopment activities could result in an additional charge to net income of approximately $1 million per annum.
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities:
Net cash flows from financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2014 changed by
$30.4 million
compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013, primarily due to additional proceeds borrowed from the Line in 2014 and payments on our unsecured credit facilities in 2013, offset by additional proceeds received from common stock issuances in 2013.
Significant financing activities during the
three months ended
March 31, 2014
include:
•
We received $70 million from draws on our Line used to fund investing activities; and,
•
We paid dividends to our common and preferred stockholders of
$42.9 million
and
$5.3 million
, respectively.
We endeavor to maintain a high percentage of unencumbered assets. At
March 31, 2014
, 74.9% of our wholly-owned real estate assets were unencumbered. Such assets allow us to access the secured and unsecured debt markets and to maintain significant availability on the Line. Our coverage ratio, including our pro-rata share of our partnerships, was 2.5 times and 2.3 times for the
three months ended
March 31, 2014
and
2013
, respectively. We define our coverage ratio as earnings before interest, taxes, investment transaction profits net of deal costs, depreciation and amortization (“Core EBITDA”) divided by the
31
sum of the gross interest and scheduled mortgage principal paid to our lenders plus dividends paid to our preferred stockholders.
Through the remainder of 2014, we estimate that we will require approximately $350.6 million, including $165.8 million for in process developments and redevelopments,
$165.5 million
to repay maturing debt, and $19.3 million to fund our pro-rata share of estimated capital contributions to our co-investment partnerships for repayment of debt. If we start new developments or redevelop additional shopping centers, our cash requirements will increase. At
March 31, 2014
, our joint ventures had
$73.0 million
of scheduled secured mortgage loans and credit lines maturing through 2014.
To meet our cash requirements, we will utilize cash generated from operations, borrowings from our Line, proceeds from the sale of real estate, and when the capital markets are favorable, proceeds from the sale of common equity and the issuance of debt and may refinance maturing mortgages. Our Line, Term Loan, and unsecured loans require we remain in compliance with various covenants, which are described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2013
. We were in compliance with these covenants at
March 31, 2014
and expect to remain in compliance.
We continuously monitor the capital markets and evaluate our ability to issue new debt to repay maturing debt or fund our commitments. Based upon the current capital markets, our current credit ratings, and the number of high quality, unencumbered properties that we own which could collateralize borrowings, we expect that we will successfully issue new secured or unsecured debt to fund our obligations.
We had
$150.0 million
of fixed rate, unsecured debt mature in April 2014, and we have
$350.0 million
of fixed rate, unsecured debt maturing August 2015. On April 15, 2014, we repaid the
$150.0 million
of maturing unsecured debt from proceeds borrowed on the Line. In order to mitigate the risk of interest rate volatility, we entered into
$440.0 million
of forward starting interest rate swaps for the new debt expected to be issued in 2014 and 2015. These interest rate swaps lock in the 10-year treasury rate and swap spread at a weighted average fixed rate of
2.55%
. A current market based credit spread applicable to Regency will be added to the locked in fixed rate at time of issuance that will determine the final bond yield.

Minimum rent increased during
2014
as compared to
2013
due to acquisitions, dispositions, and changes in overall occupancy and average base rent for our same properties, as follows:
•
$6.1 million increase due to the acquisitions of operating properties and operations beginning at development properties during
2013
and
2014
; and
•
$2.2 million increase in minimum rent from same properties, which was driven by rental rate and occupancy growth and increases from contractual rent steps in existing leases.
Recoveries from tenants and other income represent reimbursements from tenants for their pro-rata share of the operating, maintenance, and real estate tax expenses that we incur to operate our shopping centers, as well as other income earned at our operating properties. Recoveries from tenants increased during
2014
as compared to
2013
due to the following:
•
$1.5 million increase due to the acquisition of operating properties and operations beginning at development properties during
2013
and
2014
; and
•
$3.6 million increase in recoveries at same properties, which was driven by an increase in recoverable costs resulting from harsher winter weather conditions compared to 2013, an increase in our recovery ratio, and improvements in occupancy and market recovery rates.
We earned fees, at market-based rates, for asset management, property management, leasing, acquisition, and financing services that we provided to our co-investment partnerships and third parties as follows (in thousands):

Depreciation and amortization, operating and maintenance expenses, and real estate taxes increased due to the impact of dispositions, acquisitions and development operations, and same property operating costs, as follows:
•
$4.8 million increase due to the acquisition of operating properties and operations beginning at development properties during 2013 and 2014, and,
•
$7.0 million increase at same properties, primarily due to additional depreciation resulting from redevelopment and capital improvements to our existing centers and increased operating and maintenance costs primarily associated with snow removal costs stemming from harsher winter weather over the same period in 2013.
General and administrative expenses decreased
$3.8 million
primarily due to greater capitalization of development overhead costs of $2.4 million related to higher volume of development projects and leasing activity, and a $900,000 reduction in deferred compensation expense related to the Company's non-qualified deferred compensation plan. Excluding these amounts, all other general and administrative expenses declined $500,000 on a net basis.

On October 23, 2013, the Company sold 100% of its interest in the BRET unconsolidated real estate partnership and received a capital distribution of $47.5 million, its share of the undistributed income of the partnership, and a redemption premium. Regency no longer has any interest in the BRET partnership.
The
$1.9 million
increase in our equity in income in investments in real estate partnerships for
2014
, as compared to
2013
, is primarily due to a $2.9 million increase in 2014 from the Company's share of gain on sale of land in a single property partnership, offset by a decrease of $1.2 million on the ownership interest retained in BRET earned in 2013.

Supplemental Earnings Information
We use certain non-GAAP performance measures, in addition to the required GAAP presentations, as we believe these measures are beneficial to us in improving the understanding of the Company's operational results among the investing public. We believe such measures make comparisons of other REITs' operating results to the Company's more meaningful. We continually evaluate the usefulness, relevance, and calculation of our reported non-GAAP performance measures to determine how best to provide relevant information to the public, and thus such reported measures could change.
The following are our definitions of Same Property Net Operating Income ("NOI"), Funds from Operations ("FFO"), and Core FFO, which we believe to be beneficial non-GAAP performance measures used in understanding our operational results:
NOI
is calculated as total property revenues (minimum rent, percentage rents, and recoveries from tenants and other income) less direct property operating expenses (operating and maintenance and real estate taxes) from the properties owned by us, and excludes corporate-level income (including management, transaction, and other fees), for the entirety of the periods presented.
•
Same Property
information is provided for operating properties that were owned and operated for the entirety of both periods being compared and excludes all Properties in Development and Non-Same Properties. A Non-Same Property is a property acquired during either period being compared, a development completion that is less than 90% funded and 95% leased or features less than two years of anchor operations. Same Property also excludes projects in development, which represent projects owned and intended to be developed, including partially operating properties acquired specifically for redevelopment and excluding land held for future development.
•
Same Property NOI
includes NOI for Same Properties, but excludes straight-line rental income, net of reserves, above and below market rent amortization, banking charges, and other fees. Same Property NOI is a key measure used by management in evaluating the performance of our properties.
FFO
is a commonly used measure of REIT performance, which the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") defines as net income, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains and losses from sales of depreciable property, net of tax, excluding operating real estate impairments, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We compute FFO for all periods presented in accordance with NAREIT's definition. Many companies use different depreciable lives and methods, and real estate values historically fluctuate with market conditions. Since FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and gains and losses from depreciable property dispositions, and impairments, it can provide a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, acquisition and development activities, and financing costs. This provides a perspective of our financial performance not immediately apparent from net income determined in accordance with GAAP. Thus, FFO is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure of our operating performance, which does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and therefore, should not be considered an alternative for cash flow as a measure of liquidity.
•
Core FFO
is an additional performance measure used by Regency as the computation of FFO includes certain non-cash and non-comparable items that affect the Company's period-over-period performance. Core FFO excludes from FFO, but is not limited to: (a) transaction related gains, income or expense; (b) impairments on land; (c) gains or losses from the early extinguishment of debt; and (d) other non-core amounts as they occur. The Company provides a reconciliation of FFO to Core FFO.

Environmental Matters
We are subject to numerous environmental laws and regulations as they apply to our shopping centers pertaining to chemicals used by the dry cleaning industry, the existence of asbestos in older shopping centers, and underground petroleum storage tanks. We believe that the tenants who currently operate dry cleaning plants or gas stations do so in accordance with current laws and regulations. Generally, we use all legal means to cause tenants to remove dry cleaning plants from our shopping centers or convert them to more environmentally friendly systems. Where available, we have applied and been accepted into state-sponsored environmental programs. We have a blanket environmental insurance policy for third-party liabilities and remediation costs on shopping centers that currently have no known environmental contamination. We have also placed environmental insurance, where possible, on specific properties with known contamination, in order to mitigate our environmental risk. We monitor the shopping centers containing environmental issues and in certain cases voluntarily remediate the sites. We also have legal obligations to remediate certain sites and we are in the process of doing so. We believe that the ultimate disposition of currently known environmental matters will not have a material effect on our financial position, liquidity, or results of operations; however, we can give no assurance that existing environmental studies on our shopping centers have revealed all potential environmental liabilities; that any previous owner, occupant or tenant did not create any material environmental condition not known to us; that the current environmental condition of the shopping centers will not be affected by tenants and occupants, by the condition of nearby properties, or by unrelated third parties; or that changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations or their interpretation will not result in additional environmental liability to us.
Inflation/Deflation
Inflation has been historically low and has had a minimal impact on the operating performance of our shopping centers; however, inflation may become a greater concern in the future. Substantially all of our long-term leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation. Most of our leases require tenants to pay their pro-rata share of operating expenses, including common-area maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, thereby reducing our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. In addition, many of our leases are for terms of less than ten years, which permits us to seek increased rents upon re-rental at market rates. However, during deflationary periods or periods of economic weakness, minimum rents and percentage rents will decline as the supply of available retail space exceeds demand and consumer spending declines. Occupancy declines resulting from a weak economic period will also likely result in lower recovery rates of our operating expenses.
