NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


1.	GENERAL

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2014, included in Stratus Properties Inc.’s (Stratus) Annual Report on Form 10-K (Stratus 2014 Form 10-K) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) considered necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods reported. Operating results for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015.


2.	EARNINGS PER SHARE

Stratus’ basic net income per share of common stock was calculated by dividing the net income attributable to common stock by the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding during the third-quarter and nine-month periods. A reconciliation of net income and weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding for purposes of calculating diluted net income per share (in thousands, except per share amounts) follows:



	Three Months Ended								Nine Months Ended

a. Excludes shares of common stock totaling approximately 22 thousand for third-quarter 2015, 28 thousand for the first nine months of 2015 and 30 thousand for the third quarter and first nine months of 2014 associated with anti-dilutive RSUs.

Outstanding stock options with exercise prices greater than the average market price for Stratus' common stock during the period are excluded from the computation of diluted net income per share of common stock. Excluded stock options totaled approximately 18 thousand for third-quarter 2015, 24 thousand for the first nine months of 2015, 57 thousand for third-quarter 2014 and 38 thousand for the first nine months of 2014.


3.	JOINT VENTURE WITH CANYON-JOHNSON URBAN FUND II, L.P.

On September 28, 2015, Stratus completed the purchase of Canyon-Johnson Urban Fund II, L.P.'s (Canyon-Johnson) approximate 58 percent interest in the CJUF II Stratus Block 21, LLC joint venture (the Block 21 Joint Venture), which owns a 36-story mixed-use development in downtown Austin, Texas, anchored by a W Austin Hotel & Residences (the W Austin Hotel & Residences project), for approximately $62 million. Canyon-Johnson triggered the process on May 12, 2015, requiring Stratus to elect to either sell its interest in the Block 21 Joint Venture to Canyon-Johnson for $44.5 million or purchase Canyon-Johnson’s interest in the Block 21 Joint Venture. On July 6, 2015, Stratus notified Canyon-Johnson of its election to purchase Canyon-Johnson’s interest in the Block 21 Joint Venture. The Block 21 Joint Venture, which was previously a variable interest entity consolidated by Stratus, is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Stratus and continues to be consolidated. The change in ownership was reflected in stockholder's equity on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, primarily as a reduction in noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries and capital in excess of par value, and an increase in deferred tax assets.

Stratus funded its acquisition of Canyon-Johnson’s interest in the Block 21 Joint Venture with (1) $32.3 million from its non-recourse term loan with Bank of America, (2) a $20.0 million term loan under Stratus’ credit facility with Comerica Bank and (3) $9.7 million in cash.

Table of Contents

Prior to Stratus' purchase of Canyon-Johnson's interest on September 28, 2015, cumulative capital contributions totaled $71.9 million for Stratus and $94.0 million for Canyon-Johnson, and the inception-to-date distributions totaled $53.4 million to Stratus and $62.6 million to Canyon-Johnson.

Prior to the purchase transaction, the Block 21 Joint Venture's cumulative profits were allocated based on a hypothetical liquidation of the Block 21 Joint Venture’s net assets as of each balance sheet date and through September 28, 2015, the allocation was 42 percent for Stratus and 58 percent for Canyon-Johnson.


4.	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value accounting guidance includes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 inputs) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs).

The carrying value for certain Stratus financial instruments (i.e., cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities) approximates fair value because of their short-term nature and generally negligible credit losses. A summary of the carrying amount and fair value of Stratus' other financial instruments follows (in thousands):



	September 30, 2015				December 31, 2014
	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value
Assets:
Interest rate cap agreement	$	2	$	2	$	79	$	79
Liabilities:
Interest rate swap agreement	909		909		596		596
Debt	255,567		255,578		196,477		196,856

Interest Rate Cap Agreement. On September 30, 2013, the Block 21 Joint Venture paid $0.5 million to enter into an interest rate cap agreement, which caps the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), the variable rate in the Bank of America loan agreement relating to the W Austin Hotel & Residences project (the BoA loan), at 1 percent for the first year the BoA loan is outstanding, 1.5 percent for the second year and 2 percent for the third year. Stratus uses an interest rate pricing model that relies on market observable inputs such as LIBOR to measure the fair value of the interest rate cap agreement. Stratus also evaluated the counterparty credit risk associated with the interest rate cap agreement, which is considered a Level 3 input, but did not consider such risk to be significant. Therefore, the interest rate cap agreement is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Interest Rate Swap Agreement. On December 13, 2013, Stratus' joint venture with LCHM Holdings, LLC, formerly Moffett Holdings, LLC, for the development of Parkside Village (the Parkside Village Joint Venture), entered into an interest rate swap agreement with Comerica Bank that Stratus had designated as a cash flow hedge with changes in fair value of the instrument recorded in other comprehensive income. The instrument effectively converted the variable rate portion of Parkside Village's loan from Comerica Bank (the Parkside Village loan) from one-month LIBOR to a fixed rate of 2.3 percent. On July 2, 2015, Stratus completed the sale of the Parkside Village property (see Note 9). In connection with the sale, Stratus fully repaid the amount outstanding under the Parkside Village loan. Stratus assumed the interest rate swap agreement and as a result, the instrument no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. Accordingly, the liability balance of $0.6 million on July 2, 2015, was reclassified to the statement of income as a loss on interest rate derivative instruments and future changes in the fair value of the instrument will be recorded in the statement of income (including a loss of $0.3 million in third-quarter 2015). Stratus also evaluated the counterparty credit risk associated with the interest rate swap agreement, which is considered a Level 3 input, but did not consider such risk to be significant. Therefore, the interest rate swap agreement is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Debt. Stratus' debt is recorded at cost and is not actively traded. Fair value is estimated based on discounted future expected cash flows at estimated current market interest rates. Accordingly, Stratus' debt is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of debt does not represent the amounts that will ultimately be paid upon the maturities of the loans.

5.	DEBT

Bank of America Loan. On September 28, 2015, Stratus amended its term loan with Bank of America, N.A. (the BoA Loan). Pursuant to the BoA Loan amendment and among other revisions, (1) the $100.0 million non-recourse term loan previously made available to the Block 21 Joint Venture was increased to $130.0 million, (2) the interest rate was reduced to the LIBOR daily floating rate plus 2.35 percent and (3) the maturity date was extended from September 29, 2016, to September 28, 2020. In addition, Canyon-Johnson was released as a guarantor. Accordingly, certain obligations of the Block 21 Joint Venture, including environmental indemnification and other customary carve-out obligations, are guaranteed by Stratus. All other terms and conditions remain unchanged.

Comerica Credit Facility. On August 21, 2015, Stratus amended its $48.0 million credit facility with Comerica (the Comerica credit facility), that was scheduled to mature on August 31, 2015. The amendment increases the borrowing capacity under the Comerica credit facility to $72.5 million, comprised of a $45.0 million revolving line of credit, a $7.5 million tranche for letters of credit and a $20.0 million term loan. The interest rate applicable to amounts borrowed under the Comerica credit facility is LIBOR plus 4.0 percent, with a minimum interest rate of 6.0 percent. The Comerica credit facility matures on August 31, 2017, however, to the extent amounts are outstanding under the $20.0 million term loan, a principal payment of $8.0 million is required on or before December 31, 2015, with quarterly principal payments of $1.75 million due thereafter. The Comerica credit facility is secured by substantially all of Stratus' assets except for properties that are encumbered by separate loan financing.The Comerica credit facility contains customary financial covenants including a requirement that Stratus maintain a minimum total stockholders' equity balance of $110.0 million. As of September 30, 2015, Stratus had $58.1 million outstanding under the Comerica credit facility, which was comprised of $38.1 million under the revolving line of credit and $20.0 million under the term loan.

Santal (formerly Tecoma) Construction Loan. On January 8, 2015, a Stratus subsidiary entered into a $34.1 million construction loan agreement with Comerica Bank to fund the development and construction of the first phase of a multi-family development in Section N of Barton Creek, which is referred to as the Santal Barton Creek multi-family project (the Santal construction loan). The interest rate on the Santal construction loan is a LIBOR-based rate (as defined in the loan agreement) plus 2.5 percent. The Santal construction loan matures on January 8, 2018, and Stratus has the option to extend the maturity date for two additional twelve-month periods, subject to certain debt service coverage conditions. The Santal construction loan is fully guaranteed by Stratus until certain operational milestones (as defined in the loan agreement) are met.

Interest Expense and Capitalization. Interest expense (before capitalized interest) totaled $2.2 million for third-quarter 2015, $2.0 million for third-quarter 2014, $6.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, and $5.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Stratus' capitalized interest costs totaled $1.4 million for third-quarter 2015, $1.1 million for third-quarter 2014, $4.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, and $2.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Capitalized interest costs for the 2015 and 2014 periods primarily related to development activities at Lakeway and certain properties in Barton Creek.

Stratus had deferred tax assets (net of deferred tax liabilities) totaling $16.0 million at September 30, 2015, and $11.8 million at December 31, 2014. Stratus’ future results of operations may be negatively impacted by an inability to realize a tax benefit for future tax losses or for items that will generate additional deferred tax assets.

The difference between Stratus' consolidated effective income tax rate for third-quarter and the first nine months of 2015, and the U.S. Federal statutory income tax rate of 35 percent, was primarily attributable to state income taxes partially offset by the tax effect of income attributable to noncontrolling interests. During the first nine months of 2014, Stratus was subject to state income taxes while maintaining a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets related to federal income taxes. During fourth-quarter 2014, Stratus released the valuation allowance and recorded a tax benefit.

7.	BUSINESS SEGMENTS

Stratus currently has four operating segments: Real Estate Operations, Hotel, Entertainment and Commercial Leasing.

The Real Estate Operations segment is comprised of Stratus’ real estate assets (developed, under development and available for development), which consist of its properties in Austin, Texas (the Barton Creek community, the Circle C community, Lantana and the condominium units at the W Austin Hotel & Residences project); in Lakeway, Texas (The Oaks at Lakeway) located in the greater Austin area; in Magnolia, Texas located in the greater Houston area; and in Killeen, Texas (The West Killeen Market).

The Hotel segment includes the W Austin Hotel located at the W Austin Hotel & Residences project.

The Entertainment segment includes ACL Live, a live music and entertainment venue and production studio at the W Austin Hotel & Residences project. In addition to hosting concerts and private events, this venue is the home of Austin City Limits, a television program showcasing popular music legends. The Entertainment segment also includes revenues and costs associated with events hosted at other venues, and the results of the Stageside Productions joint venture with Pedernales Entertainment LLC (see Note 2 in the Stratus 2014 Form 10-K for further discussion).

The Commercial Leasing segment includes the office and retail space at the W Austin Hotel & Residences project and a retail building and a bank building in Barton Creek Village. On July 2, 2015, Stratus completed the sales of the Parkside Village and 5700 Slaughter properties, which were included in the Commercial Leasing segments. See Note 9 for further discussion.

Stratus uses operating income or loss to measure the performance of each segment. Stratus allocates parent company general and administrative expenses that do not directly relate to a particular operating segment between the Real Estate Operations and Commercial Leasing segments based on projected annual revenues for each segment. General and administrative expenses related to the W Austin Hotel & Residences project are allocated to the Real Estate Operations, Hotel, Entertainment and Commercial Leasing segments based on projected annual revenues for the W Austin Hotel & Residences project. The following segment information reflects management determinations that may not be indicative of what the actual financial performance of each segment would be if it was an independent entity.

8.	NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update (ASU) to simplify the presentation of debt issuance costs. This ASU requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. For public entities, this ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. Retrospective application of the ASU is required upon adoption and the impact of adopting this ASU on the Consolidated Balance Sheets would be a decrease in other assets and debt of $2.8 million at September 30, 2015, and $2.6 million at December 31, 2014. Stratus plans to adopt this ASU on January 1, 2016.


9.	ASSET SALES AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Parkside Village and 5700 Slaughter. As of June 30, 2015, Stratus' balance sheet had approximately $24.3 million of assets and $26.0 million of liabilities associated with the Parkside Village and 5700 Slaughter commercial properties. On July 2, 2015, Stratus completed the sales of its Austin-area Parkside Village and 5700 Slaughter commercial properties, both located in the Circle C community, to Whitestone REIT. The Parkside Village retail project, owned in a joint venture with LCHM Holdings, LLC, consisted of 90,184 leasable square feet and was sold for $32.5 million. The 5700 Slaughter retail project, wholly owned by Stratus, consisted of 25,698 leasable square feet and was sold for $12.5 million. Stratus used proceeds from these transactions to repay the $26 million outstanding under the Parkside Village construction loan with Comerica Bank and the term loan with United Heritage Credit Union, with the remainder being held in escrow while Stratus assessed potential tax free like-kind exchange transactions. In September 2015, Stratus used $2.6 million of the escrow funds to purchase an undeveloped tract of land for the West Killeen Market project and withdrew $12.1 million to fund distributions to Stratus and LCHM Holdings, of $9.4 million and $3.2 million respectively. The remaining proceeds are expected to be distributed to Stratus in fourth-quarter 2015. After debt repayments and closing costs, cash proceeds from these transactions approximated $17 million, and Stratus recorded a pre-tax gain in third-quarter 2015 of approximately $21 million, of which the noncontrolling interest share was $4 million. Stratus has determined that the sales of the Parkside Village and 5700 Slaughter commercial properties do not meet the criteria for classification as discontinued operations.

Net (loss) income before income taxes and net (loss) income attributable to Stratus associated with Parkside Village and 5700 Slaughter follow (in thousands):



	January 1, 2015, to July 2, 2015			Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014

7500 Rialto. In 2012, Stratus sold 7500 Rialto, an office building in Lantana. In connection with the sale, Stratus recognized a gain of $5.1 million and deferred a gain of $5.0 million because of a guaranty provided to the lender in connection with the buyer's assumption of the loan related to 7500 Rialto. The guaranty was released in January 2015, and Stratus recognized the deferred gain totaling $5.0 million ($3.2 million to net income attributable to common stock) in first-quarter 2015.


10.	SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 30, 2015, Stratus sold the Austin 290 undeveloped tract of land for $1.2 million, with the proceeds being held in escrow for potential tax free like-kind exchange transactions. Stratus expects to record a pre-tax gain of approximately $0.5 million in fourth-quarter 2015.

On December 2, 2010, and December 13, 2012, the Block 21 Joint Venture entered into common stock purchase warrants agreement with Ticketfly, Inc. to purchase 75,000 shares of common stock at an average price of $0.78 per share. In October 2015, Stratus received notification that it would receive $9.6195 per share in cash in exchange for the warrants as a result of Pandora Media, Inc.’s merger with Ticketfly, Inc. Prior to this notification, Stratus did not assign a value to these warrants, as Ticketfly, Inc. was a privately-held company and their value could not be readily determined. Stratus expects to record a gain of approximately $0.7 million in fourth-quarter 2015.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

OVERVIEW

In management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, “we,” “us,” “our” and "Stratus" refer to Stratus Properties Inc. and all entities owned or controlled by Stratus Properties Inc. You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our financial statements, the related management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations and the discussion of our business and properties included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 (2014 Form 10-K) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations reported and summarized below are not necessarily indicative of future operating results, and future results could differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements (refer to "Cautionary Statement" for further discussion). All subsequent references to “Notes” refer to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) located in Part I, Item 1. “Financial Statements” of this Form 10-Q, unless otherwise stated.

We are a diversified real estate company engaged primarily in the acquisition, entitlement, development, management, operation and sale of commercial, hotel, entertainment, and multi- and single-family residential real estate properties, primarily located in the Austin area, but including projects in certain other select markets in Texas. We generate revenues from sales of developed properties, from our hotel and entertainment operations and from rental income from our commercial properties. See Note 7 for further discussion of our operating segments.

Developed property sales can include an individual tract of land that has been developed and permitted for residential use, a developed lot with a home already built on it or condominium units at the W Austin Hotel & Residences project. We may sell properties under development, undeveloped properties or commercial properties, if opportunities arise that we believe will maximize overall asset values as part of our business plan. See "Business Strategy and Related Risks" below.

The principal holdings in our Real Estate Operations operating segment are in southwest Austin, Texas. The number of developed lots/units, acreage under development and undeveloped acreage as of September 30, 2015, that comprise our real estate development operations are presented in the following table.

Our residential holdings at September 30, 2015, included developed lots at Barton Creek and the Circle C community, and condominium units at the W Austin Hotel & Residences project. See "Development Activities - Residential" for further discussion. Our commercial leasing holdings at September 30, 2015, consisted of the office and retail space at the W Austin Hotel & Residences project, and the first phase of Barton Creek Village, in the Circle C community. See "Development Activities - Commercial" for further discussion.

The W Austin Hotel & Residences project is located on a two-acre city block in downtown Austin and contains a 251-room luxury hotel, 159 residential condominium units (of which the remaining two unsold units were being marketed as of September 30, 2015), and office, retail and entertainment space. The hotel is managed by Starwood

Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. The entertainment space, occupied by Austin City Limits Live at the Moody Theater (ACL Live), includes a live music and entertainment venue and production studio.

For third-quarter 2015, our revenues totaled $19.7 million and our net income attributable to common stock totaled $10.2 million, compared with revenues of $21.6 million and net income attributable to common stock of $0.6 million for third-quarter 2014. For the first nine months of 2015, our revenues totaled $59.9 million and our net income attributable to common stock totaled $11.9 million, compared with revenues of $67.5 million and net income attributable to common stock of $1.9 million for the first nine months of 2014. The decrease in revenues in the 2015 periods primarily relates to fewer condominium unit sales at the W Austin Residences and fewer lot sales at Verano Drive and Amarra Drive Phase II as inventory has declined as a result of previous sales activity. Our results for the third quarter and first nine months of 2015 included a gain of $20.7 million ($10.8 million to net income attributable to common stock) on the sales of our Parkside Village and 5700 Slaughter commercial developments (see "Results of Operations - Commercial Leasing"). The results for the first nine months of 2015 also included recognition of a deferred gain associated with the 2012 sale of 7500 Rialto totaling $5.0 million ($3.2 million to net income attributable to common stock). The results for the first nine months of 2014 included income of $2.5 million (including $1.5 million for third-quarter 2014) associated with a litigation settlement, an insurance settlement and the recovery of building repair costs associated with damage caused by the June 2011 balcony glass breakage incidents at the W Austin Hotel & Residence project.

In third-quarter 2015, we purchased the noncontrolling interest share of the CJUF II Stratus Block 21, LLC joint venture (the Block 21 Joint Venture) and we now own 100 percent of the joint venture (see "Business Strategy and Related Risks" below).

For discussion of operating cash flows and debt transactions see "Capital Resources and Liquidity" below.

BUSINESS STRATEGY AND RELATED RISKS

Our business strategy is to enhance the value of our properties by securing and maintaining development entitlements and developing and building real estate projects on these properties for sale or investment. We have also pursued opportunities for new projects that offer the possibility of acceptable returns and risks.

Our board of directors has approved a five-year plan to create value for stockholders by methodically developing certain existing assets and actively marketing other assets for possible sale at appropriate values. Under the plan, any future new projects will be complementary to existing operations and will be projected to be developed and sold within a five-year time frame. Consistent with our five-year plan, on July 2, 2015, we completed the sales of our Austin-area Parkside Village and 5700 Slaughter commercial properties, both located in the Circle C community, for $32.5 million and $12.5 million, respectively. We are also in the process of engaging or considering the engagement of advisers to market other developed and undeveloped properties.

Additionally, on September 28, 2015, we completed the purchase of Canyon-Johnson Urban Fund II, L.P.'s (Canyon-Johnson’s) approximate 58 percent interest in the Block 21 Joint Venture, for approximately $62 million. See Note 3 for further discussion. In connection with our acquisition of Canyon-Johnson's interest in the Block 21 Joint Venture, we completed the refinancing of the Block 21 Joint Venture. See "Capital Resources and Liquidity - Credit Facility and Other Financing Arrangements."

We believe that the Austin and surrounding sub-markets continue to be desirable. Many of our developments are in locations where development approvals have historically been subject to regulatory constraints, which has made it difficult to obtain entitlements. Our Austin assets, which are located in desirable areas with significant regulatory constraints, are highly entitled and, as a result, we believe that through strategic planning and development, we can maximize and fully realize their value. Our development plans require significant additional capital, and may be pursued through joint ventures or other means. In addition, our strategy is subject to continued review by our board of directors and may change as a result of market conditions or other factors deemed relevant by our board of directors.

In years past, economic conditions, including the constrained capital and credit markets, negatively affected the execution of our business plan, primarily by decreasing the pace of development to match economic and market conditions. We responded to these conditions by successfully restructuring our existing debt, including reducing interest rates and extending maturities, which enabled us to preserve our development opportunities until market conditions improved. Economic conditions have improved and we believe we have the financial flexibility to fully

exploit our development opportunities and resources. During the first nine months of 2015, our operating cash flows reflect purchases and development of real estate properties totaling $20.6 million, funded primarily from construction and term loans, to invest in new development opportunities to be executed over the next 24 months.

As of September 30, 2015, we had $33.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and $6.9 million of availability under our revolving line of credit with Comerica Bank, which matures in August 2017.

Although we have scheduled debt maturities of $16.2 million in fourth-quarter 2015 and $20.8 million in 2016, and significant recurring costs, including property taxes, maintenance and marketing, we believe we will have sufficient sources of debt financing and cash from operations to address our cash requirements. See "Capital Resources and Liquidity" below regarding recent debt repayments and refinancing and “Risk Factors” included in Part 1, Item 1A. of our 2014 Form 10-K for further discussion.

Our development of the properties identified under the heading “Potential Development” is dependent upon the approval of our development plans and permits by governmental agencies, including the City of Austin (the City). Those governmental agencies may not approve one or more development plans and permit applications related to such properties or may require us to modify our development plans. Accordingly, our development strategy with respect to those properties may change in the future. While we may be proceeding with approved infrastructure projects on some of these properties, they are not considered to be “under development” for disclosure in this table unless other development activities necessary to fully realize the properties’ intended final use are in progress or scheduled to commence in the near term.

Amarra Drive. Amarra Drive Phase I, which was the initial phase of the Amarra Drive subdivision, was completed in 2007 and included six lots with sizes ranging from approximately one to four acres. Amarra Drive Phase II, which consisted of 35 lots on 51 acres, was substantially completed in October 2008. We have not sold any Phase II lots in 2015. During the first nine months of 2014, we sold 12 Phase II lots for $5.9 million, including 3 lots for $1.7 million in third-quarter 2014. As of September 30, 2015, 14 Phase II lots remained unsold.

In first-quarter 2015, we completed the development of Amarra Drive Phase III, which consists of 64 lots on 166 acres. During the first nine months of 2015, we sold 7 Phase III lots for $5.1 million (including 4 lots for $3.3 million in third-quarter 2015) and as of September 30, 2015, 57 lots remained unsold. During October 2015, we sold one lot and as of October 31, 2015, four lots were under contract.

Santal (formerly Tecoma) Multi-family. The Santal Multi-family project is a garden-style apartment complex consisting of 236 units. Construction commenced in January 2015 and pre-leasing is expected to begin in September 2015. The project is expected to be completed in April 2016.

Table of Contents

Circle C. We are developing the Circle C community based on the entitlements secured in our Circle C settlement with the City. Our Circle C settlement, as amended in 2004, permits development of 1.16 million square feet of commercial space, 504 multi-family units and 830 single-family residential lots. Meridian is an 800-lot residential development at the Circle C community. Development of the final phase of Meridian, which consisted of 57 one-acre lots, was completed in first-quarter 2014. During the first nine months of 2015, we sold 18 Meridian lots for $5.0 million (including 9 lots for $2.6 million in third-quarter 2015) and as of September 30, 2015, 32 lots remained unsold. As of October 31, 2015, two lots were under contract.

Calera. Calera is a residential subdivision with plat approval for 155 lots. The initial phase of the Calera subdivision included 16 courtyard homes at Calera Court. The second phase of the Calera subdivision, Calera Drive, consisted of 53 single-family lots. Construction of the final phase, known as Verano Drive, was completed in July 2008 and included 71 single-family lots. During 2014, we sold the remaining nine Verano Drive lots for $3.5 million.

W Austin Residences. During the first nine months of 2014, we sold five condominium units for $7.9 million, including two units for $3.5 million in third-quarter 2014. There were no sales during the first nine months of 2015 and as of September 30, 2015, two condominium units remained unsold. The two unsold units are being marketed for sale.

Commercial. As of September 30, 2015, the number of square feet of our commercial property developed, under development and our remaining entitlements for potential development (excluding property associated with our unconsolidated joint venture with Tramell Crow Central Texas Development, Inc. relating to Crestview Station in Austin (the Crestview Station Joint Venture)) are shown below:

The decrease in developed property sales revenues in the 2015 periods primarily resulted from fewer sales of higher priced condominium units at the W Austin Residences and fewer lot sales at Verano Drive and Amarra Drive Phase II as inventories have declined, partly offset by increased lot sales at Meridian and Amarra Drive Phase III, which was completed in first-quarter 2015.

Commissions and Other. Commissions and other totaled $0.3 million for third-quarter 2015, $0.2 million for third-quarter 2014, $0.8 million for the first nine months of 2015 and $0.4 million for the first nine months of 2014.

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales includes cost of property sold, project operating and marketing expenses and allocated overhead costs, partly offset by reductions for certain municipal utility district (MUD) reimbursements. Cost of sales totaled $4.5 million for third-quarter 2015 and $8.8 million for the first nine months of 2015, compared with $5.5 million for third-quarter 2014 and $14.2 million for the first nine months of 2014. The decrease in cost of sales for the 2015 periods primarily reflects lower sales of condominium units that have higher average costs. Cost of sales for our real estate operations also includes significant recurring costs (including property taxes, maintenance and marketing), which totaled $1.4 million for third-quarter 2015 and $3.4 million for the first nine months of 2015, compared with $1.0 million for third-quarter 2014 and $2.9 million for the first nine months of 2014. Cost of sales for the first nine months of 2015 included Barton Creek MUD reimbursements totaling less than $0.1 million. Cost of sales also included costs of $0.1 million for third-quarter 2014 and credits of $0.4 million for the first nine months of 2014 related to the recovery of building repair costs associated with damage caused by the June 2011 balcony glass breakage incidents at the W Austin Hotel & Residences project.

Litigation and Insurance Settlements. We recorded a gain on a litigation settlement totaling $1.5 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2014 related to the termination of a lease. The first nine months of 2014 also reflected a gain of $0.6 million related to an insurance settlement.

General and Administrative Expenses. Consolidated general and administrative expenses primarily consist of employee salaries, wages and other costs and totaled $2.2 million in third-quarter 2015 and $6.3 million for the first nine months of 2015, compared with $1.7 million in third-quarter 2014 and $5.8 million for the first nine months of 2014. Costs were higher in the 2015 periods, primarily reflecting higher legal fees associated with debt modifications and the purchase of Canyon-Johnson's interest in the Block 21 Joint Venture. General and administrative expenses allocated to real estate operations totaled $1.7 million for third-quarter 2015 and $4.7 million for the first nine months of 2015, compared with $1.3 million for third-quarter 2014 and $4.4 million for the first nine months of 2014. For more information about the allocation of general and administrative expenses to our operating segments, see Note 7.

Hotel

The following table summarizes our Hotel operating results (in thousands):



	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2015		2014		2015		2014
Hotel revenue	$	8,597	$	9,799	$	31,411	$	31,400

General and administrative expenses	120		83		510		298
Operating income	$	191	$	708	$	3,170	$	3,890

Hotel Revenue. Hotel revenue reflects the results of operations for the W Austin Hotel, and primarily includes revenue from room reservations and food and beverage sales. Revenue per Available Room, which is calculated by dividing total room revenue by total rooms available, averaged $241 for third-quarter 2015 and $282 for the first nine months of 2015, compared with $264 for third-quarter 2014 and $286 for the first nine months of 2014. Lower hotel revenues for third-quarter 2015, compared to third-quarter 2014, primarily reflects decreased food and beverage sales and room revenue.

Hotel Cost of Sales. Hotel operating costs totaling $6.8 million in third-quarter 2015, were lower compared with $7.5 million in third-quarter 2014, primarily related to decreased food and beverage sales. Hotel operating costs totaled $23.2 million for the first nine months of 2015, compared with $22.8 million for the first nine months of 2014. The increase in hotel cost of sales for the first nine months of 2015 primarily reflects higher property taxes.

Entertainment

The following table summarizes our Entertainment operating results (in thousands):



	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2015		2014		2015		2014

General and administrative expenses	43		31		184		110
Operating income	$	322	$	261	$	1,772	$	1,903

Entertainment Revenue. Entertainment revenue primarily reflects the results of operations for ACL Live including ticket sales, revenue from private events, sponsorships, personal seat license sales and suite sales, and sales of concessions and merchandise. Entertainment revenue also reflects revenues associated with outside events hosted at venues other than ACL Live and production of recorded content for artists performing at ACL Live, as well as the results of the joint venture with Pedernales Entertainment LLC relating to Stageside Productions. Revenues from the Entertainment segment will vary from period to period as a result of factors such as the price of tickets and number of tickets sold, as well as the number and type of events. The increase in entertainment revenue for the 2015 periods primarily resulted from increases in the number of events hosted and ticket sales.

Certain key operating statistics specific to the concert and event hosting industry are included below to provide additional information regarding our ACL Live operating performance.

Entertainment Cost of Sales. Entertainment operating costs totaled $3.5 million in third-quarter 2015 and $10.7 million for the the first nine months of 2015, compared with $3.1 million in third-quarter 2014 and $9.7 million for the first nine months of 2014. Costs from the Entertainment segment will vary from period to period as a result of the number and types of events hosted. The increase in Entertainment operating costs in the 2015 periods primarily reflects higher costs associated with an increase in the number of events hosted.

Commercial Leasing

The following table summarizes our Commercial Leasing operating results (in thousands):



	Three Months Ended September 30,						Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2015			2014			2015			2014

Operating income (loss)	$	20,407		$	(107	)	$	20,566		$	70

Rental Revenue. Rental revenue primarily reflects revenue from the office and retail space at the W Austin Hotel & Residences project, Barton Creek Village, and Parkside Village and 5700 Slaughter, which are both in the Circle C community. On July 2, 2015, we completed the sales of Parkside Village and 5700 Slaughter for $32.5 million and $12.5 million, respectively. See Note 9 for further discussion. The decrease in rental revenue in the 2015 periods primarily reflects the sales of Parkside Village and 5700 Slaughter.

Rental Cost of Sales. Rental operating costs totaled $0.5 million in third-quarter 2015 and $2.3 million for the the first nine months of 2015, compared with $1.1 million in third-quarter 2014 and $2.5 million for the first nine months of 2014. The decrease in rental costs in the 2015 periods primarily reflects the sales of Parkside Village and 5700 Slaughter (see Note 9).

Gain on Sales of Assets. Gains on sales of assets totaled $20.7 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2015 related to the sales of the Parkside Village and 5700 Slaughter commercial properties (see Note 9).

Non-Operating Results

Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense (before capitalized interest) totaled $2.2 million for third-quarter 2015 and $6.8 million for the first nine months of 2015, compared with $2.0 million for third-quarter 2014 and $5.6 million for the first nine months of 2014. The increase in interest expense in the 2015 periods primarily reflects higher average debt balances. Capitalized interest totaled $1.4 million for third-quarter 2015 and $4.1 million for the first nine months of 2015, compared with $1.1 million for third-quarter 2014 and $2.8 million for the first nine months of 2014, and is primarily related to certain properties in Barton Creek and development activities at The Oaks at Lakeway.

(Loss) Gain on Interest Rate Derivative Instruments. We recorded losses of $0.9 million for third-quarter 2015 and $1.0 million for the first nine months of 2015, compared with a gain of less than $0.1 million in third-quarter 2014 and a loss of $0.2 million for the first nine months of 2014, associated with changes in the fair value of our interest rate cap agreement and the recognition of cumulative changes in the fair value of our interest rate swap agreement in third-quarter 2015 because it no longer qualified for hedge accounting treatment (see Note 4).

Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt. We recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt totaling less than $0.1 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2014 associated with the refinancing in July 2014 of the term loan secured by 5700 Slaughter.

Other Income, Net. We recorded other income of less than $0.1 million for third-quarter 2015 and $0.3 million for the first nine months of 2015, compared with less than $0.1 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2014. The increase in other income in the first nine months of 2015 primarily reflects interest received in connection with Barton Creek MUD reimbursements.

Table of Contents

Equity in Unconsolidated Affiliates' (Loss) Income. We account for our interests in our unconsolidated affiliates, Crestview Station, Stump Fluff and Guapo Enterprises, using the equity method. Our equity in the net (loss) income of these entities totaled $(0.3) million for third-quarter 2015 and $(0.4) million for the first nine months of 2015, compared with $(0.2) million for third-quarter 2014 and $0.2 million for the first nine months of 2014. The decrease in the first nine months of 2015 reflects the third closing in the take-down agreement between Crestview Station and DR Horton and a decrease in the number of events hosted by Stump Fluff during the South by Southwest festival, both of which occurred in the first nine months of 2014.

Provision for Income Taxes. We recorded a provision for income taxes of $5.2 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2015, compared with $0.1 million for third-quarter 2014 and $0.6 million for the first nine months of 2014. Our tax provision for both the 2015 and 2014 periods also includes the Texas state margin tax. The difference between our consolidated effective income tax rate for each of the 2015 and 2014 periods, and the U.S. Federal statutory income tax rate of 35 percent, was primarily attributable to state income taxes partially offset by the tax effect of income attributable to non-controlling interests. During the first nine months of 2014, we were subject to state income taxes while maintaining a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets related to federal income taxes. During fourth-quarter 2014, we released the valuation allowance and recorded a tax benefit.

Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests in Subsidiaries. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries totaled $3.5 million for third-quarter 2015 and $5.4 million for the first nine months of 2015, compared with $0.2 million for third-quarter 2014 and $3.0 million for the first nine months of 2014. The increase for the 2015 periods primarily relates to the gain on the sale of Parkside Village (see Note 9).

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In 2012, we sold 7500 Rialto, an office building in Lantana. In connection with the sale, we recognized a gain of $5.1 million and deferred a gain of $5.0 million because of a guaranty provided to the lender in connection with the buyer's assumption of the loan related to 7500 Rialto. The guaranty was released in January 2015, and we recognized the deferred gain totaling $5.0 million ($3.2 million to net income attributable to common stock) in first-quarter 2015.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

Volatility in the real estate market, including the markets in which we operate, can impact sales of our properties from period to period. However, we believe that the unique nature and location of our assets will provide us positive cash flows over time. See "Business Strategy and Related Risks" for further discussion of our liquidity.

Comparison of Cash Flows for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 and 2014

Cash provided by (used in) operating activities totaled $3.3 million during the first nine months of 2015, compared with $(25.1) million during the first nine months of 2014. Expenditures for purchases and development of real estate properties totaled $20.6 million during the first nine months of 2015 and $47.6 million during the first nine months of 2014, and primarily included development costs for our Barton Creek properties and for the West Killeen Market project.

Cash provided by (used in) investing activities totaled $5.9 million during the first nine months of 2015, compared with $(0.9) million during the first nine months of 2014. Development of commercial leasing properties increased during the first nine months of 2015 to $36.6 million, compared with $2.1 million during the first nine months of 2014, primarily for The Oaks at Lakeway and Santal multi-family projects. The first nine months of 2015 also included $43.3 million in proceeds from the sales of the Parkside Village and 5700 Slaughter commercial properties. The first nine months of 2014 included a return of investment from Crestview Station totaling $1.4 million.

Cash (used in) provided by financing activities totaled $(5.7) million for the first nine months of 2015, compared with $31.3 million during the first nine months of 2014. During the first nine months of 2015, net borrowings on the Comerica credit facility totaled $35.0 million, compared with $18.7 million for the first nine months of 2014. Net borrowings on other project and term loans totaled $24.1 million for the first nine months of 2015, compared with $17.7 million for the first nine months of 2014. The increase in borrowings for the 2015 period primarily reflects the amendments to the BoA loan and Comerica Credit facility (see Note 5). Noncontrolling interest distributions for the Parkside Village Joint Venture and the Block 21 Joint Venture (see Note 3) totaled $4.2 million for the first nine months of 2015 and $4.3 million for the first nine months of 2014. Additionally, on September 28, 2015, we

Table of Contents

completed the purchase of Canyon-Johnson’s approximate 58 percent interest in the Block 21 Joint Venture for approximately $62 million. See also Note 5 and “Credit Facility and Other Financing Arrangements” for a discussion of our outstanding debt at September 30, 2015.

Credit Facility and Other Financing Arrangements

At September 30, 2015, we had total debt of $255.6 million, compared with $196.5 million at December 31, 2014. Increased debt since year-end 2014 is primarily related to increased borrowings under our Comerica revolving credit facility to fund the purchase of Canyon-Johnson's interest in the Block 21 Joint Venture and the construction loan agreement with PlainsCapital Bank to fund the construction, development and leasing of The Oaks at Lakeway (the Lakeway construction loan). Our debt outstanding at September 30, 2015, consisted of the following:


•	$130.0 million outstanding under the BoA loan related to the W Austin Hotel & Residences project (see Note 5).

•

$58.1 million outstanding under the $72.5 million Comerica credit facility, which is comprised of a $45.0 million revolving loan, $6.9 million of which was available at September 30, 2015; a $7.5 million letters of credit tranche, against which $2.4 million of letters of credit were committed and $5.1 million was available at September 30, 2015; and a $20.0 million term loan, none of which was available at September 30, 2015 (see Note 5). The Comerica credit facility is secured by substantially all of our assets except for properties that are encumbered by separate loan financing.


•	$34.3 million outstanding under the Lakeway construction loan.


•	$14.5 million outstanding under the three unsecured term loans with Diversified Real Asset Income Fund (DRAIF), formerly American Strategic Income Portfolio or ASIP, which include an $8.0 million loan, a $3.5 million loan and a $3.0 million loan.


•	$9.1 million outstanding under the Santal construction loan (see Note 5).


•	$5.8 million outstanding under the term loan agreement with PlainsCapital Bank secured by assets at Barton Creek Village (the Barton Creek Village term loan).


•	$3.8 million outstanding under the term loan agreement with Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P., the proceeds of which were used to purchase approximately 142 acres of land in Magnolia, Texas (the Magnolia loan).

The Comerica credit facility and our DRAIF unsecured term loans contain customary financial covenants, including a requirement that we maintain a minimum total stockholders’ equity balance of $110.0 million. As of September 30, 2015, Stratus' total stockholders' equity was $136.3 million. See Note 7 in our 2014 Form 10-K for further discussion of our outstanding debt.

Important factors that can cause our actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, our ability to refinance and service our debt and the availability of financing for development projects and other corporate purposes, our ability to sell properties at prices our board considers acceptable, a decrease in the demand for real estate in the Austin, Texas market, changes in economic and business conditions, reductions in discretionary spending by consumers and corporations, competition from other real estate developers, hotel operators and/or entertainment venue operators and promoters, business opportunities that may be presented to and/or pursued by us, the failure of third parties to satisfy debt service obligations, the failure to complete agreements with strategic partners and/or appropriately manage relationships with strategic partners, the termination of sales contracts or letters of intent due to, among other factors, the failure of one or more closing conditions or market changes, the failure to attract customers for our developments or such customers' failure to satisfy their purchase commitments, increases in interest rates, declines in the market value of our assets, increases in operating costs, including real estate taxes and the cost of construction materials, changes in external perception of the W Austin Hotel, changes in consumer preferences, changes in laws, regulations or the regulatory environment affecting the development of real estate, opposition from special interest groups with respect to development projects, weather-related risks and other factors described in more detail under the heading “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A. in our 2014 Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), as updated by our subsequent filings with the SEC.

Investors are cautioned that many of the assumptions upon which our forward-looking statements are based are likely to change after the forward-looking statements are made. Further, we may make changes to our business plans that could affect our results. We caution investors that we do not intend to update our forward-looking statements notwithstanding any changes in our assumptions, business plans, actual experience, or other changes, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, except as required by law.
