Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Report”), including Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Item 2 of Part I of this Report, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding: the impact of the CPA:18 Merger (as defined herein); our corporate strategy and estimated or future economic performance and results, including our expectations surrounding the impact of the broader macroeconomic environment and the ability of tenants to pay rent, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, and prospects; our future capital expenditure and leverage levels, debt service obligations, and plans to fund our liquidity needs; prospective statements regarding our access to the capital markets, including our “at-the-market” program (“ATM Program”) and settlement of our Equity Forwards (as defined herein); the outlook for the investment program that we manage, including possible liquidity events for the program; statements that we make regarding our ability to remain qualified for taxation as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”); and the impact of recently issued accounting pronouncements and regulatory activity.
These statements are based on the current expectations of our management. It is important to note that our actual results could be materially different from those projected in such forward-looking statements. There are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable risks or uncertainties, like the risks related to inflation and increased interest rates, the effects of pandemics and global outbreaks of contagious diseases (such as the COVID-19 pandemic) and domestic or geopolitical crises, such as terrorism, military conflict (including the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the global response to it), war or the perception that hostilities may be imminent, political instability or civil unrest, or other conflict, could also have material adverse effects on our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, and prospects. You should exercise caution in relying on forward-looking statements as they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may materially affect our future results, performance, achievements, or transactions. Information on factors that could impact actual results and cause them to differ from what is anticipated in the forward-looking statements contained herein is included in this Report, as well as in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including but not limited to those described in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, as filed with the SEC on February 10, 2023 (the “2022 Annual Report”). Moreover, because we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment, new risks are likely to emerge from time to time. Given these risks and uncertainties, potential investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements as a prediction of future results, which speak only as of the date of this Report, unless noted otherwise. Except as required by federal securities laws and the rules and regulations of the SEC, we do not undertake to revise or update any forward-looking statements.
All references to “Notes” throughout the document refer to the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements of the registrant in Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements (Unaudited).

W. P. CAREY INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
Note 1.
Business and Organization
W. P. Carey Inc. (“W. P. Carey”) is a REIT that, together with our consolidated subsidiaries, invests primarily in operationally-critical, single-tenant commercial real estate properties located in the United States and Northern and Western Europe on a long-term basis. We earn revenue principally by leasing the properties we own to companies on a triple-net lease basis, which generally requires each tenant to pay the costs associated with operating and maintaining the property.
Founded in 1973, our shares of common stock are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “WPC.”
We elected to be taxed as a REIT under Section 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code effective as of February 15, 2012. As a REIT, we are not subject to federal income taxes on income and gains that we distribute to our stockholders as long as we satisfy certain requirements, principally relating to the nature of our income and the level of our distributions, as well as other factors. We also own real property in jurisdictions outside the United States through foreign subsidiaries and are subject to income taxes on our pre-tax income earned from properties in such countries. Through our taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”), we also earn revenue as the advisor to certain non-traded investment programs. We hold substantially all of our real estate assets under the REIT structure, while the activities conducted by our Investment Management segment subsidiaries have been organized under TRSs.
On August 1, 2022, a non-traded REIT that we advised, Corporate Property Associates 18 – Global Incorporated (“CPA:18 – Global”) merged with and into one of our indirect subsidiaries (the “CPA:18 Merger”). At March 31, 2023, we were the advisor to Carey European Student Housing Fund I, L.P. (“CESH”), a limited partnership formed for the purpose of developing, owning, and operating student housing properties in Europe (
Note 3
). We refer to CPA:18 – Global (prior to the CPA:18 Merger) and CESH collectively as the “Managed Programs.” We no longer raise capital for new or existing funds, but currently expect to continue managing CESH through the end of its life cycle (
Note 3
).
Reportable Segments
Real Estate
— Lease revenues from our real estate investments generate the vast majority of our earnings. We invest primarily in commercial properties located in the United States and Northern and Western Europe, which are leased to companies on a triple-net lease basis. At March 31, 2023, our portfolio was comprised of our full or partial ownership interests in
1,446
properties, totaling approximately
176
million square feet, substantially all of which were net leased to
397
tenants, with a weighted-average lease term of
10.9
years and an occupancy rate of
99.2
%. In addition, at March 31, 2023, our portfolio was comprised of full or partial ownership interests in
99
operating properties, including
84
self-storage properties,
13
hotels, and
two
student housing properties, totaling approximately
7.6
million square feet.
Investment Management
— Through our TRSs, we manage the real estate investment portfolio for CESH, for which we earn asset management revenue. We may also be entitled to receive certain distributions pursuant to our advisory arrangements with CESH. At March 31, 2023, CESH wholly owned (i)
two
net-leased properties, totaling approximately
0.2
million square feet, both of which were leased to
one
tenant, with an occupancy rate of
100.0
%, and (ii)
one
build-to-suit project.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Note 2.
Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation
Our interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not necessarily include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete statement of our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”).
In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial information for the interim periods presented in this Report reflects all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. Our interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2022, which are included in the 2022 Annual Report, as certain disclosures that would substantially duplicate those contained in the audited consolidated financial statements have not been included in this Report. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of operating results for an entire year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and the disclosure of contingent amounts in our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Basis of Consolidation
Our consolidated financial statements reflect all of our accounts, including those of our controlled subsidiaries. The portions of equity in consolidated subsidiaries that are not attributable, directly or indirectly, to us are presented as noncontrolling interests. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
When we obtain an economic interest in an entity, we evaluate the entity to determine if it should be deemed a VIE and, if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary and are therefore required to consolidate the entity. There have been no significant changes in our VIE policies from what was disclosed in the 2022 Annual Report.
At both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we considered
16
entities to be VIEs, of which we consolidated
11
, as we are considered the primary beneficiary.
The following table presents a summary of selected financial data of the consolidated VIEs included in our consolidated balance sheets (in thousands):

At both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our
five
unconsolidated VIEs included our interests in (i)
three
unconsolidated real estate investments, which we account for under the equity method of accounting (we do not consolidate these entities because we are not the primary beneficiary and the nature of our involvement in the activities of these entities allows us to exercise significant influence on, but does not give us power over, decisions that significantly affect the economic performance of these entities), and (ii)
two
unconsolidated investments in equity securities, which we accounted for as investments in shares of the entities at fair value. As of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the net carrying amount of our investments in these entities was $
705.5
million and $
693.4
million, respectively, and our maximum exposure to loss in these entities was limited to our investments.

Reclassifications
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
Amounts due from affiliates are now included within Other assets, net in the consolidated balance sheets. Previously, such amounts were included within Due from affiliates in the consolidated balance sheets.
Revenue Recognition
There have been no significant changes in our policies for revenue from contracts under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 from what was disclosed in the 2022 Annual Report. ASC 606 does not apply to our lease revenues, which constitute a majority of our revenues, but primarily applies to revenues generated from our hotel operating properties and our Investment Management segment.
Revenue from contracts for our Real Estate segment primarily represented hotel operating property revenues of $
15.5
million and $
2.2
million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, generated from
13
hotels located in the United States (
12
of which were reclassified from net leases to operating properties in the first quarter of 2023 (
Note 4
)).
Revenue from contracts under ASC 606 from our Investment Management segment is discussed in
Note 3
.
Lease revenue (including straight-line lease revenue) is only recognized when deemed probable of collection. Collectibility is assessed for each tenant receivable using various criteria including credit ratings (
Note 5
), guarantees, past collection issues, and the current economic and business environment affecting the tenant. If collectibility of the contractual rent stream is not deemed probable, revenue will only be recognized upon receipt of cash from the tenant.

Reference Rate Reform
During the first quarter of 2023, we applied the guidance in ASC 848,
Reference Rate Reform
and elected the practical expedient to transition certain contracts that reference London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), including our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility (
Note 10
) and certain derivative instruments. The application of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Note 3.
Agreements and Transactions with Related Parties
Advisory Agreements and Partnership Agreements with the Managed Programs
We currently have advisory arrangements with CESH, pursuant to which we earn fees and are entitled to receive reimbursement for certain fund management expenses. Upon completion of the CPA:18 Merger on August 1, 2022 (
Note 1
), our advisory agreements with CPA:18 – Global were terminated, and we ceased earning revenue from CPA:18 – Global. We no longer raise capital for new or existing funds, but we currently expect to continue to manage CESH and earn various fees (as described below) through the end of its life cycle.

% based on its gross assets at fair value, paid in cash. After completion of the CPA:18 Merger on August 1, 2022, we no longer receive asset management revenue from CPA:18 – Global.
Reimbursable Costs from Affiliates
CESH reimburses us in cash for certain personnel and overhead costs that we incur on its behalf, based on actual expenses incurred.
Distributions of Available Cash
We were entitled to receive distributions of up to
10
% of the Available Cash (as defined in CPA:18 – Global’s partnership agreement) from the operating partnership of CPA:18 – Global, payable quarterly in arrears. After completion of the CPA:18 Merger on August 1, 2022, we no longer receive distributions of Available Cash from CPA:18 – Global.
Back-End Fees and Interests in the Managed Programs
Under our advisory arrangements with CESH, we may also receive compensation in connection with providing a liquidity event for its investors. Such back-end fees or interests include interests in disposition proceeds. There can be no assurance as to whether or when any back-end fees or interests will be realized.

Other Transactions with Affiliates
Loans to Affiliates
From time to time, our board of directors has approved the making of secured and unsecured loans or lines of credit from us to certain of the Managed Programs, at our sole discretion, generally for the purpose of facilitating acquisitions or for working capital purposes. The loan agreement with CPA:18 – Global was terminated upon completion of the CPA:18 Merger on August 1, 2022. No such line of credit with CESH existed during the reporting period.
Other
At March 31, 2023, we owned interests in
ten
jointly owned investments in real estate, with the remaining interests held by third parties. We consolidate
six
such investments and account for the remaining
four
investments under the equity method of accounting (
Note 7
). In addition, we owned limited partnership units of CESH at that date. We elected to account for our investment in CESH under the fair value option (

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the U.S. dollar weakened against the euro, as the end-of-period rate for the U.S. dollar in relation to the euro increased by
2.0
% to $
1.0875
from $
1.0666
. As a result of this fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates, the carrying value of our Land, buildings and improvements — net lease and other increased by $
66.4
million from December 31, 2022 to March 31, 2023.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we reclassified a portfolio of
78
properties classified as Land, buildings and improvements — net lease and other to Net investments in finance leases and loans receivable due to the tenant’s notice of intention to exercise a purchase option. As a result, the carrying value of our Land, buildings and improvements — net lease and other decreased by $
288.2
million from December 31, 2022 to March 31, 2023 (
Note 5
).
On January 31, 2023, the master lease expired on certain hotel properties previously classified as net-lease properties, which converted to operating properties. As a result, in February 2023, we reclassified
12
consolidated hotel properties with an aggregate carrying value of $
164.6
million from Land, buildings and improvements — net lease and other to Land, buildings and improvements — operating properties. Effective as of that time, we began recognizing operating property revenues and expenses from these properties, whereas previously we recognized lease revenues from these properties.
In connection with a change in lease classification due to an extension of the underlying lease, we reclassified
one
property with an aggregate carrying value of $
10.9
million from Net investments in finance leases and loans receivable to Land, buildings and improvements — net lease and other during the three months ended March 31, 2023 (
Note 5
).
Depreciation expense, including the effect of foreign currency translation, on our buildings and improvements subject to operating leases was $
91.3

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we reclassified
one
property with an aggregate carrying value of $
10.9
million from Net investments in finance leases and loans receivable to Land, buildings and improvements — net lease and other in connection with a change in lease classification due to an extension of the underlying lease. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the U.S. dollar weakened against the euro, resulting in a $
7.1
million increase in the carrying value of Net investments in finance leases and loans receivable from December 31, 2022 to March 31, 2023.
Net Investments in Sales-Type Leases
On February 28, 2023, the tenant of our portfolio of
78
net-lease self-storage properties located in the United States provided notice of its intention to exercise its option to repurchase the properties. The purchase price will be calculated using the U.S. CPI as of the closing date, which is expected on or around March 31, 2024.
In accordance with ASC 842,
Leases
, we reclassified these net-lease assets to net investments in sales-type leases totaling $
451.4
million on our consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2023 (based on the present value of remaining rents and estimated purchase price, using the CPI rates as of the exercise notice date), since the tenant provided notice of its intention to exercise its purchase option. In connection with this transaction, we reclassified the following amounts to Net investments in finance leases and loans receivable: (i) $
393.7
million from Land, buildings and improvements — net lease and other, (ii) $
36.6
million from In-place lease intangible assets and other, (iii) $

Credit Quality of Finance Receivables
We generally invest in facilities that we believe are critical to a tenant’s business and therefore have a lower risk of tenant default. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we reclassified certain assets to net investments in sales-type leases (which are considered finance receivables), as described above under
Net Investments in Sales-Type Leases
. At both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, no material balances of our finance receivables were past due. Other than the lease extension noted under
Net Investments in Direct Financing Leases
above, there were no material modifications of finance receivables during the three months ended March 31, 2023.
We evaluate the credit quality of our finance receivables utilizing an internal five-point credit rating scale, with one representing the highest credit quality and five representing the lowest. A credit quality of one through three indicates a range of investment grade to stable. A credit quality of four through five indicates a range of inclusion on the watch list to risk of default. The credit quality evaluation of our finance receivables is updated quarterly.
A summary of our finance receivables by internal credit quality rating, excluding our allowance for credit losses, is as follows (dollars in thousands):

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the U.S. dollar weakened against the euro, resulting in an increase of $
10.5
million in the carrying value of our net intangible assets from December 31, 2022 to March 31, 2023. See
Note 5
for a description of intangible assets and liabilities reclassified to net investments in sales-type leases during the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Net amortization of intangibles, including the effect of foreign currency translation, was $
67.5
million and $
52.7
million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Amortization of below-market rent and above-market rent intangibles is recorded as an adjustment to Lease revenues and amortization of internal-use software development and in-place lease intangibles is included in Depreciation and amortization.

Equity Method Investments
We own interests in certain unconsolidated real estate investments with third parties and in the Managed Programs. There have been no significant changes in our equity method investment policies from what was disclosed in the 2022 Annual Report.
Interests in Unconsolidated Real Estate Investments
We own equity interests in properties that are generally leased to companies through noncontrolling interests in partnerships and limited liability companies that we do not control but over which we exercise significant influence. The underlying investments are jointly owned with affiliates or third parties. We account for these investments under the equity method of accounting. Operating results of our unconsolidated real estate investments are included in the Real Estate segment.

(a)
On June 10, 2021, we entered into an agreement to fund a construction loan of approximately $
261.9
million (as of March 31, 2023) for a retail complex in Las Vegas, Nevada. Through March 31, 2023, we funded $
206.9
million, including $
13.7
million during the three months ended March 31, 2023. Equity income from this investment was $
3.3
million and $
1.6
million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, which was recognized within Earnings from equity method investments in our consolidated statements of income.
(b)
The carrying value of this investment is affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate of the euro.
(c)
This investment is reported using the hypothetical liquidation at book value model, which may be different than pro rata ownership percentages, primarily due to the capital structure of the partnership agreement.
We received aggregate distributions of $
5.7
million and $
4.3
million from our unconsolidated real estate investments for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the aggregate unamortized basis differences on our unconsolidated real estate investments were $
18.8
million and $
19.1
million, respectively.
Managed Programs
We own interests in the Managed Programs and account for these interests under the equity method because, as their advisor, we do not exert control over, but we do have the ability to exercise significant influence over, the Managed Programs. Operating results of the Managed Programs are included in the Investment Management segment.
CPA:18 – Global
— On August 1, 2022, we acquired all of the remaining interests in CPA:18 – Global and the CPA:18 – Global operating partnership in the CPA:18 Merger (
Note 1
).
We received distributions from this investment during the three months ended March 31, 2022 of $
0.5
million. We received distributions from our investment in the CPA:18 – Global operating partnership during the three months ended March 31, 2022 of $
2.6
million (
Note 3
).
CESH
—
We have elected to account for our investment in
2.43
% of CESH at fair value by selecting the equity method fair value option available under GAAP. We record our investment in CESH on a one quarter lag; therefore, the balance of our equity method investment in CESH recorded as of March 31, 2023 is based on the estimated fair value of our investment as of December 31, 2022. The carrying amount of our investment in CESH was $
2.3
million and $
2.2
million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. We received distributions from this investment during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 of $
0.5
million and $
1.2
million, respectively.
Note 8.
Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of an asset is defined as the exit price, which is the amount that would either be received when an asset is sold or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers are: Level 1, for which quoted market prices for identical instruments are available in active markets, such as money market funds, equity securities, and U.S. Treasury securities; Level 2, for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the instrument, such as certain derivative instruments including interest rate caps, interest rate swaps, and foreign currency collars; and Level 3, for securities that do not fall into Level 1 or Level 2 and for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring us to develop our own assumptions.
W. P. Carey 3/31/2023 10-Q

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The methods and assumptions described below were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument. For significant Level 3 items, we have also provided the unobservable inputs.
Derivative Assets and Liabilities
— Our derivative assets and liabilities, which are included in Other assets, net and Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively, in the consolidated financial statements, are comprised of foreign currency collars, interest rate swaps, interest rate caps, and stock warrants (
Note 9
).
The valuation of our derivative instruments (excluding stock warrants) is determined using a 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, as well as observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves, spot and forward rates, and implied volatilities. We incorporate credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of our derivative instruments for the effect of nonperformance risk, we have considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts, and guarantees. These derivative instruments were classified as Level 2 as these instruments are custom, over-the-counter contracts with various bank counterparties that are not traded in an active market.
The stock warrants were measured at fair value using valuation models that incorporate market inputs and our own assumptions about future cash flows. We classified these assets as Level 3 because these assets are not traded in an active market.
Equity Method Investment in CESH
—
We have elected to account for our investment in CESH, which is included in Equity method investments in the consolidated financial statements, at fair value by selecting the equity method fair value option available under GAAP (
Note 7
). We classified this investment as Level 3 because we primarily used valuation models that incorporate unobservable inputs to determine its fair value.
Investment in Shares of Lineage Logistics
— We have elected to apply the measurement alternative under
Accounting Standards Update 2016-01, Financial Instruments — Overall (Subtopic 825-10)
to account for our investment in shares of Lineage Logistics (a cold storage REIT), which is included in Other assets, net in the consolidated financial statements. Under this alternative, the carrying value is adjusted for any impairments or changes in fair value resulting from observable transactions for similar or identical investments in the issuer. We classified this investment as Level 3 because it is not traded in an active market. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we received cash dividends of $
4.3
million from our investment in shares of Lineage Logistics, which was recorded within Non-operating income in the consolidated financial statements. The fair value of this investment was $
404.9
million at both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Investment in Shares of GCIF
—
We account for our investment in shares of Guggenheim Credit Income Fund (“GCIF”), which is included in Other assets, net in the consolidated financial statements, at fair value. We classified this investment as Level 2 because we used a quoted price from an inactive market to determine its fair value. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we received liquidating distributions from our investment in shares of GCIF totaling $
0.5
million, which reduced the cost basis of our investment (in March 2021, GCIF announced its intention to liquidate and to distribute substantially all of its assets). The fair value of our investment in shares of GCIF was $
1.2
million and $
1.7
million at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
Investment in Preferred Shares of WLT
— In January 2022, Watermark Lodging Trust, Inc. (“WLT”) redeemed in full our
1,300,000
shares of its preferred stock for gross proceeds of $
65.0
million (based on the liquidation preference of $
50.00
per share). In connection with this redemption, we reclassified an unrealized gain on this investment of $
18.7
million from Accumulated other comprehensive loss to Other gains and (losses) in the consolidated financial statements (
Note 12
). Prior to this redemption, we accounted for this investment, which was included in Other assets, net in the consolidated financial statements, as available-for-sale debt securities at fair value (Level 3). During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we received cash dividends of $
0.9
million from our investment in preferred shares of WLT, which was recorded within Non-operating income in the consolidated financial statements.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Investment in Common Shares of WLT
— In January 2022, we reclassified our investment in
12,208,243
shares of common stock of WLT from equity method investments to equity securities, since we no longer had significant influence over WLT, following the redemption of our investment in preferred shares of WLT, as described above. As a result, we accounted for this investment, which was included in Other assets, net in the consolidated financial statements, at fair value. We classified this investment as Level 3 because it was not traded in an active market. We recognized non-cash unrealized gains of $
28.0
million on our investment in common shares of WLT during the three months ended March 31, 2022, reflecting the most recently published net asset value of WLT, which was recorded within Other gains and (losses) in the consolidated financial statements. WLT completed its previously announced sale to private real estate funds in October 2022 and we received $
82.6
million in cash proceeds.
We did not have any transfers into or out of Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 category of measurements during either the three months ended March 31, 2023 or 2022. Gains and losses (realized and unrealized) recognized on items measured at fair value on a recurring basis included in earnings are reported within Other gains and (losses) on our consolidated financial statements.
Our other material financial instruments had the following carrying values and fair values as of the dates shown (dollars in thousands):

The carrying value of Senior Unsecured Notes, net (
Note 10
) includes unamortized deferred financing costs of $
24.8
million and $
25.9
million at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The carrying value of Non-recourse mortgages, net includes unamortized deferred financing costs of less than $
0.1
million at both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
(b)
The carrying value of Senior Unsecured Notes, net includes unamortized discount of $
23.2

9.2
million and $
10.3
million at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
(c)
For those Senior Unsecured Notes for which there are no observable market prices (specifically, our private placement Senior Unsecured Notes (
Note 10
)), we used a discounted cash flow model that estimates the present value of future loan payments by discounting such payments at current estimated market interest rates. We consider these notes to be within the Level 3 category. For all other Senior Unsecured Notes, we determined the estimated fair value using observed market prices in an open market, which may experience limited trading volume. We consider these notes to be within the Level 2 category.
(d)
We determined the estimated fair value of our non-recourse mortgage loans using a discounted cash flow model that estimates the present value of the future loan payments by discounting such payments at current estimated market interest rates. The estimated market interest rates consider interest rate risk and the value of the underlying collateral, which includes quality of the collateral, the credit quality of the tenant/obligor, and the time until maturity.
We estimated that our other financial assets and liabilities, including amounts outstanding under our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility (
Note 10
), but excluding finance receivables (
Note 5
), had fair values that approximated their carrying values at both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Items Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis (Including Impairment Charges)
We periodically assess whether there are any indicators that the value of our real estate investments may be impaired or that their carrying value may not be recoverable. There have been no significant changes in our impairment policies from what was disclosed in the 2022 Annual Report.

Real Estate and Intangibles
The impairment charges described below are reflected within Impairment charges — real estate in our consolidated statements of income.
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recognized an impairment charge of $
10.9
million on a property in order to reduce its carrying value to its estimated fair value, which declined due to changes in expected cash flows related to the existing tenant’s lease expiration in 2023. The fair value measurement was determined by estimating discounted cash flows using two significant unobservable inputs, which were the cash flow discount rate (
14.0
%) and terminal capitalization rate (
11.0
%)
In March 2022, we entered into a transaction to restructure certain leases with Pendragon PLC (a tenant at certain automotive dealerships in the United Kingdom). Under this restructuring, we extended the leases on
30
properties by
11
years (no change to rent) and entered into an agreement to dispose of
12
properties, with the tenant continuing to pay rent until the earlier of sale date or certain specified dates over the following 12 months. As a result, during the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recognized impairment charges totaling $
9.3
million on
six
of these properties in order to reduce the carrying values of the properties to their estimated fair values. The fair value measurements for the properties were determined using a direct capitalization rate analysis; the capitalization rate for the various scenarios ranged from
4.75
% to
10.00
%.
Note 9.
Risk Management and Use of Derivative Financial Instruments
Risk Management
In the normal course of our ongoing business operations, we encounter economic risk. There are four main components of economic risk that impact us: interest rate risk, credit risk, market risk, and foreign currency risk. We are primarily subject to interest rate risk on our interest-bearing liabilities, including our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility (
Note 10
) and unhedged variable-rate non-recourse mortgage loans. Credit risk is the risk of default on our operations and our tenants’ inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments. Market risk includes changes in the value of our properties and related loans, Senior Unsecured Notes, other securities, and the limited partnership units we hold in CESH, due to changes in interest rates or other market factors. We own investments in North America, Europe, and Japan and are subject to risks associated with fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates.

Interest Rate Swaps and Caps
We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through our borrowing activities. To limit this exposure, we generally seek long-term debt financing on a fixed-rate basis. However, from time to time, we or our investment partners have obtained, and may in the future obtain, variable-rate, non-recourse mortgage loans and, as a result, we have entered into, and may continue to enter into, interest rate swap agreements or interest rate cap agreements with counterparties. Interest rate swaps, which effectively convert the variable-rate debt service obligations of a loan to a fixed rate, are agreements in which one party exchanges a stream of interest payments for a counterparty’s stream of cash flow over a specific period. The notional, or face, amount on which the swaps are based is not exchanged. Interest rate caps limit the effective borrowing rate of variable-rate debt obligations while allowing participants to share in downward shifts in interest rates. Our objective in using these derivatives is to limit our exposure to interest rate movements.
The interest rate swaps and caps that our consolidated subsidiaries had outstanding at March 31, 2023 are summarized as follows (currency in thousands):

Foreign Currency Collars
We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate movements, primarily in the euro and, to a lesser extent, the British pound sterling and certain other currencies. In order to hedge certain of our foreign currency cash flow exposures, we enter into foreign currency collars. A foreign currency collar consists of a written call option and a purchased put option to sell the foreign currency at a range of predetermined exchange rates. A foreign currency collar guarantees that the exchange rate of the currency will not fluctuate beyond the range of the options’ strike prices. Our foreign currency collars have maturities of
59
months or less.

Credit Risk-Related Contingent Features
We measure our credit exposure on a counterparty basis as the net positive aggregate estimated fair value of our derivatives, net of any collateral received.
No
collateral was received as of March 31, 2023. At March 31, 2023, our total credit exposure and the maximum exposure to any single counterparty was $
26.8
million and $
4.5
million, respectively.
Some of the agreements we have with our derivative counterparties contain cross-default provisions that could trigger a declaration of default on our derivative obligations if we default, or are capable of being declared in default, on certain of our indebtedness. At March 31, 2023, we had not been declared in default on any of our derivative obligations. The estimated fair value of our derivatives in a net liability position was $
2.1
million and $
1.7
million at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, which included accrued interest and any nonperformance risk adjustments. If we had breached any of these provisions at March 31, 2023 or December 31, 2022, we could have been required to settle our obligations under these agreements at their aggregate termination value of $
2.1
million and $
1.7
million, respectively.
Net Investment Hedges
Certain borrowings under our Senior Unsecured Notes, Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, and Unsecured Term Loans (all as defined in
Note 10
) denominated in euro, British pounds sterling, or Japanese yen are designated as, and are effective as, economic hedges of our net investments in foreign entities.
Exchange rate variations impact our financial results because the financial results of our foreign subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars each period, with the effect of exchange rate variations being recorded in Other comprehensive (loss) income as part of the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment. As a result, changes in the value of our borrowings under our euro-denominated senior notes and changes in the value of our euro, Japanese yen, and British pound sterling borrowings under our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility, related to changes in the spot rates, will be reported in the same manner as foreign currency translation adjustments, which are recorded in Other comprehensive (loss) income as part of the cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment. Such (losses) gains related to non-derivative net investment hedges were $(
71.5
) million and $
76.9
million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Senior Unsecured Credit Facility
As of December 31, 2022, we had a senior credit facility, which had capacity of approximately $
2.4
billion, comprised of (i) a $
1.8
billion unsecured revolving credit facility for our working capital needs, acquisitions, and other general corporate purposes (our “Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility”), (ii) a £
270.0
million term loan (our “Term Loan”), and (iii) a €
215.0
million delayed draw term loan (our “Delayed Draw Term Loan”). We refer to our Term Loan and Delayed Draw Term Loan collectively as the “Unsecured Term Loans” and the entire facility collectively as our “Senior Unsecured Credit Facility.” As of December 31, 2022, the aggregate principal amount (of revolving and term loans) available under the Senior Unsecured Credit Facility was able to be increased up to an amount not to exceed the U.S. dollar equivalent of $
2.75
billion, subject to the conditions to increase set forth in our credit agreement.
In January 2023, we entered into a Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement to transition from LIBOR to SOFR. In connection with this amendment, we also increased the aggregate principal amount (of revolving and term loans) available under the Senior Unsecured Credit Facility to an amount not to exceed the U.S. dollar equivalent of $
3.05
billion, subject to the conditions to increase set forth in the credit agreement (
Note 2
).
The Senior Unsecured Credit Facility includes the ability to borrow in certain currencies other than U.S. dollars and has a maturity date of February 20, 2025. At March 31, 2023, our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility had available capacity of approximately $
1.1
billion (net of amounts reserved for standby letters of credit totaling $
1.9
million). We incur an annual facility fee of
0.15
% of the total commitment on our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, which is included within Interest expense in our consolidated statements of income.

Covenants
The Credit Agreement, each of the Senior Unsecured Notes, and certain of our non-recourse mortgage loan agreements include customary financial maintenance covenants that require us to maintain certain ratios and benchmarks at the end of each quarter. There have been no significant changes in our debt covenants from what was disclosed in the 2022 Annual Report. We were in compliance with all of these covenants at March 31, 2023.
Non-Recourse Mortgages
At March 31, 2023, the weighted-average interest rate for our total non-recourse mortgage notes payable was
4.3
% (fixed-rate and variable-rate non-recourse mortgage notes payable were
4.4
% and
3.8
%, respectively), with maturity dates ranging from April 2023 to April 2039.
Repayments
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we (i) prepaid non-recourse mortgage loans totaling $
52.9
million and (ii) repaid a non-recourse mortgage loan at maturity with a principal balance of approximately $
28.5
million. We recognized a net gain on extinguishment of debt of $
2.8
million on these repayments, which is included within Other gains and (losses) on our consolidated statements of income. The weighted-average interest rate for these non-recourse mortgage loans on their respective dates of repayment was
6.6

Stock-Based Compensation and Equity
Stock-Based Compensation
We maintain several stock-based compensation plans, which are more fully described in the 2022 Annual Report. There have been no significant changes to the terms and conditions of any of our stock-based compensation plans or arrangements during the three months ended March 31, 2023. We recorded stock-based compensation expense of $
7.8
million during both the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, which was included in Stock-based compensation expense in the consolidated financial statements.

__________
(a)
The grant date fair value of RSAs and RSUs reflect our stock price on the date of grant on a
one
-for-one basis. The grant date fair value of PSUs was determined utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation model to generate an estimate of our future stock price over the
three-year
performance period. To estimate the fair value of PSUs granted during the three months ended March 31, 2023, we used a risk-free interest rate of
3.8
%, an expected volatility rate of
38.2
%, and assumed a dividend yield of
zero
.
(b)
The grant date fair value of shares vested during the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $
33.7
million. Employees have the option to take immediate delivery of the shares upon vesting or defer receipt to a future date pursuant to previously made deferral elections. At March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had an obligation to issue
1,196,957
and
1,181,947
shares, respectively, of our common stock underlying such deferred awards, which is recorded within Total stockholders’ equity as a Deferred compensation obligation of $
62.0
million and $
57.0
million, respectively.
(c)
Vesting and payment of the PSUs is conditioned upon certain company and/or market performance goals being met during the relevant
three-year
performance period. The ultimate number of PSUs to be vested will depend on the extent to which the performance goals are met and can range from
zero
to
three
times the original awards. As a result, we recorded adjustments at March 31, 2023 to reflect the number of shares expected to be issued when the PSUs vest.
(d)
At March 31, 2023, total unrecognized compensation expense related to these awards was approximately $
66.2
million, with an aggregate weighted-average remaining term of
2.4
years.

ATM Program
On May 2, 2022, we established a continuous “at-the-market” offering program (“ATM Program”) with a syndicate of banks, pursuant to which shares of our common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $
1.0
billion may be sold (i) directly through or to the banks acting as sales agents or as principal for their own accounts or (ii) through or to participating banks or their affiliates acting as forward sellers on behalf of any forward purchasers pursuant to a forward sale agreement (our “ATM Forwards”). Effective as of that date, we terminated a prior ATM Program that was established on August 9, 2019.
Our prior ATM Program is discussed in the 2022 Annual Report.
The following table sets forth certain information regarding the issuance of shares of our common stock under our prior ATM Program during the periods presented (net proceeds in thousands):

Forward Equity
We expect to settle the ATM Forwards in full on or prior to the maturity date of each ATM Forward via physical delivery of the outstanding shares of common stock in exchange for cash proceeds. However, subject to certain exceptions, we may also elect to cash settle or net share settle all or any portion of our obligations under any ATM Forwards. The forward sale price that we will receive upon physical settlement of the ATM Forwards will be (i) subject to adjustment on a daily basis based on a floating interest rate factor equal to a specified daily rate less a spread (i.e., if the specified daily rate is less than the spread on any day, the interest rate factor will result in a daily reduction of the applicable forward sale price) and (ii) decreased based on amounts related to expected dividends on shares of our common stock during the term of the ATM Forwards.
We determined that our ATM Forwards meet the criteria for equity classification and are therefore exempt from derivative accounting. We recorded the ATM Forwards at fair value at inception, which we determined to be zero. Subsequent changes to fair value are not required under equity classification.
In addition, we refer to our forward equity offering presented below as the August 2021 Equity Forwards (the “Equity Forwards”), which are discussed in the 2022 Annual Report. Our ATM Forwards are also presented below (gross offering proceeds at closing in thousands):

Dividends Declared

Note 13.
Income Taxes
We elected to be treated as a REIT and believe that we have been organized and have operated in such a manner to maintain our qualification as a REIT for federal and state income tax purposes. As a REIT, we are generally not subject to corporate level federal income taxes on earnings distributed to our stockholders. Since inception, we have distributed at least 100% of our taxable income annually. Accordingly, we have not included any provisions for federal income taxes related to the REIT in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Certain of our subsidiaries have elected TRS status. A TRS may provide certain services considered impermissible for REITs and may hold assets that REITs may not hold directly. We also own real property in jurisdictions outside the United States through foreign subsidiaries and are subject to income taxes on our pre-tax income earned from properties in such countries. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include an interim tax provision for our TRSs and foreign subsidiaries, as necessary, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.
Current income tax expense was $
10.8
million and $
8.3
million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Deferred income tax (expense) benefit was $(
4.4
) million and $
1.2
million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Note 14.
Property Dispositions
We have an active capital recycling program, with a goal of extending the average lease term through reinvestment, improving portfolio credit quality through dispositions and acquisitions of assets, increasing the asset criticality factor in our portfolio, and/or executing strategic dispositions of assets. We may decide to dispose of a property when it is vacant as a result of tenants vacating space, tenants electing not to renew their leases, tenant insolvency, or lease rejection in the bankruptcy process. In such cases, we assess whether we can obtain the highest value from the property by selling it, as opposed to re-leasing it. We may also sell a property when we receive an unsolicited offer or negotiate a price for an investment that is consistent with our strategy for that investment. When it is appropriate to do so, we classify the property as an asset held for sale on our consolidated balance sheet. All property dispositions are recorded within our Real Estate segment and are also discussed in
Note 4

Subsequent Events
Acquisitions
In April 2023, we completed
two
acquisitions totaling approximately $
565.7
million. They are as follows:
•
$
467.8
million for a portfolio of
11
pharmaceutical manufacturing/research and development facilities in Canada; and
•
$
97.9
million for a portfolio of
nine
industrial facilities and an expansion at an industrial facility that we already own in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
New Term Loan Agreement
On April 24, 2023, we closed on a new €
500.0
million unsecured term loan maturing on April 24, 2026 (the “Term Loan due 2026”), which was drawn in full at closing. The Term Loan due 2026 is able to be increased up to an amount not to exceed €
750.0
million, subject to the conditions to increase set forth in the credit agreement.
The Term Loan due 2026 borrowing rate pursuant to the credit agreement is
85
basis points over EURIBOR, based on our credit ratings of BBB+ and Baa1. In conjunction with the closing of the Term Loan due 2026, we executed a variable-to-fixed interest rate swap that fixes the total per annum interest rate at
4.34
% through the end of 2024.
Proceeds from the Term Loan due 2026 were used for the repayment of debt, including amounts outstanding on our unsecured revolving credit facility.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is intended to assist in understanding our financial statements and the reasons for changes in certain key components of our financial statements from period to period. This item also provides our perspective on our financial position and liquidity, as well as certain other factors that may affect our future results. The discussion also breaks down the financial results of our business by segment to provide a better understanding of how these segments and their results affect our financial condition and results of operations. Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the 2022 Annual Report and subsequent reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Refer to Item 1 of the 2022 Annual Report for a description of our business.
Significant Developments
Purchase Option Exercise Notice
On February 28, 2023, U-Haul Moving Partners, Inc. and Mercury Partners, LP, the tenant of our portfolio of 78 net-lease self-storage properties located in the United States, provided notice of its intention to exercise its option to repurchase the properties. The purchase price will be calculated using the U.S. CPI as of the closing date, which is expected on or around March 31, 2024. ABR from this tenant totaled $38.8 million as of March 31, 2023.
In accordance with ASC 842,
Leases
, we reclassified these net-lease assets to net investments in sales-type leases totaling $451.4 million on our consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2023 (based on the present value of remaining rents and estimated purchase price, using the CPI rates as of the exercise notice date). We recognized an aggregate Gain on sale of real estate, net, of $176.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023 related to this transaction (
Note 5
).
Financial Highlights
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we completed the following (as further described in the consolidated financial statements):

Dispositions
•
We disposed of five properties for total proceeds, net of selling costs, of $41.0 million (
Note 14
).

In January 2023, we entered into a Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement to (i) transition from LIBOR to SOFR and (ii) increase the aggregate principal amount (of revolving and term loans) available under the Senior Unsecured Credit Facility to an amount not to exceed the U.S. dollar equivalent of $3.05 billion, subject to the conditions to increase set forth in the credit agreement (

(a)
We consider Adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”), a supplemental measure that is not defined by GAAP (a “non-GAAP measure”), to be an important measure in the evaluation of our operating performance. See
Supplemental Financial Measures
below for our definition of this non-GAAP measure and a reconciliation to its most directly comparable GAAP measure.
Revenues
Total revenues increased for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022. Real Estate revenue increased primarily due to higher lease revenues (substantially as a result of property acquisition activity and rent escalations, as well as the net-leased properties we acquired in the CPA:18 Merger on August 1, 2022) and higher operating property revenues (primarily from the operating properties we acquired in the CPA:18 Merger on August 1, 2022 and the 12 hotel properties that converted from net-lease to operating properties during the first quarter of 2023).
Net Income Attributable to W. P. Carey
Net income attributable to W. P. Carey increased for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022. Net income from Real Estate attributable to W. P. Carey increased primarily due to a higher aggregate gain on sale of real estate (
Note 5
,
Note 14
) and the impact of real estate acquisitions, partially offset by higher interest expense. Net income from Investment Management attributable to W. P. Carey decreased primarily due to the cessation of fees and distributions previously earned from CPA:18 – Global prior to the CPA:18 Merger.

AFFO
AFFO increased for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to investment activity and rent escalations, as well as the accretive impact of the CPA:18 Merger, partially offset by higher interest expense.

Terms and Definitions
Pro Rata Metrics
— The portfolio information above contains certain metrics prepared on a pro rata basis.
We refer to these metrics as pro rata metrics. We have certain investments in which our economic ownership is less than 100%. On a full consolidation basis, we report 100% of the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses of those investments that are deemed to be under our control or for which we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary, even if our ownership is less than 100%. Also, for all other jointly owned investments, which we do not control, we report our net investment and our net income or loss from that investment. On a pro rata basis, we generally present our proportionate share, based on our economic ownership of these jointly owned investments, of the portfolio metrics of those investments. Multiplying each of our jointly owned investments’ financial statement line items by our percentage ownership and adding or subtracting those amounts from our totals, as applicable, may not accurately depict the legal and economic implications of holding an ownership interest of less than 100% in our jointly owned investments.
ABR
—
ABR represents contractual minimum annualized base rent for our net-leased properties and reflects exchange rates as of March 31, 2023. If there is a rent abatement, we annualize the first monthly contractual base rent following the free rent period. ABR is not applicable to operating properties.

Results of Operations
We operate in two reportable segments: Real Estate and Investment Management. We evaluate our results of operations with a primary focus on increasing and enhancing the value, quality, and number of properties in our Real Estate segment. We focus our efforts on accretive investing and improving portfolio quality through re-leasing efforts, including negotiation of lease renewals, or selectively selling assets in order to increase value in our real estate portfolio. Through our Investment Management segment, we expect to continue to earn fees and other income from the management of the portfolio of CESH until it reaches the end of its life cycle. Refer to
Note 15
for tables presenting the comparative results of our Real Estate and Investment Management segments.

Lease Revenues
“Existing net-leased properties” are those that we acquired or placed into service prior to January 1, 2022 and that were not sold or held for sale during the periods presented. For the periods presented, there were 1,080 existing net-leased properties.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, lease revenues from existing net-leased properties increased due to the following items (in millions):
__________
(a)
Excludes fixed minimum rent increases, which are reflected as straight-line rent adjustments within lease revenues.
(b)
Primarily comprised of higher reimbursable maintenance costs at certain properties.
“Recently acquired net-leased properties” are those that we acquired or placed into service subsequent to December 31, 2021 and that were not sold or held for sale during the periods presented. Since January 1, 2022, we acquired 24 investments (comprised of 139 properties) and placed two properties into service.
“Net-leased properties acquired in the CPA:18 Merger” on August 1, 2022 (
Note
1
) consisted of 38 net-leased properties that were not sold or held for sale during the periods presented.
“Net-leased properties sold, held for sale, or reclassified to operating properties or sales-type leases” include:
•
five net-leased properties disposed of during the three months ended March 31, 2023;
•
one net-leased property classified as held for sale at March 31, 2023;
•
23 net-leased properties disposed of during the year ended December 31, 2022;
•
a portfolio of 12 net-leased hotel properties that converted to operating properties in the first quarter of 2023 upon expiration of the master lease with the Marriott Corporation, after which we began recognizing operating property revenues and expenses from these properties (
Note 4
); and
•
a portfolio of 78 net-leased self-storage properties that were reclassified to net investments in sales-type leases in the first quarter of 2023, since the tenant provided notice of its intention to exercise its option to repurchase the properties; following this transaction, we began recognizing earnings from these properties within Income from finance leases and loans receivable in the consolidated financial statements (
Note 5
).
Our dispositions are more fully described in
Note 14
.

Income from Finance Leases and Loans Receivable
For the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, income from finance leases and loans receivable increased due to the following items (in millions):
Operating Property Revenues and Expenses
“Operating properties acquired in the CPA:18 Merger” on August 1, 2022 (
Note
1
) consisted of 65 self-storage properties and two student housing properties, which contributed operating property revenues, depreciation and amortization, and operating property expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2023.
“Operating properties recently reclassified from net-leased properties” are the portfolio of 12 net-leased hotel properties that converted to operating properties in the first quarter of 2023, after which we began recognizing operating property revenues and expenses from these properties (
Note 4
).
“Existing operating properties” are those that we acquired or placed into service prior to January 1, 2022 and that were not sold or held for sale during the periods presented. For the periods presented, we recorded operating property revenues from 11 existing operating properties, comprised of ten self-storage operating properties (which excludes nine self-storage properties accounted for under the equity method) and one hotel operating property, as well as a parking garage attached to one of our existing net-leased properties. For our existing hotel operating property, revenues and expenses increased by $0.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, reflecting higher occupancy.
Other Lease-Related Income
Other lease-related income is described in
Note 4
.
Operating Expenses
Depreciation and Amortization
For the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, depreciation and amortization expense increased primarily due to the impact of net acquisition activity (including properties acquired in the CPA:18 Merger), partially offset by the weakening of foreign currencies (primarily the euro and British pound sterling) in relation to the U.S. dollar between the periods.
W. P. Carey 3/31/2023 10-Q

46
General and Administrative
All general and administrative expenses are attributed to our Real Estate segment.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, general and administrative expenses increased by $3.4 million, primarily due to higher compensation expense, increased professional fees and expenses resulting from the assets acquired in the CPA:18 Merger (
Note 1
), and no longer receiving reimbursements from CPA:18 – Global.
Property Expenses, Excluding Reimbursable Tenant Costs
For the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, property expenses, excluding reimbursable tenant costs, decreased by $1.0 million, primarily due to dispositions of vacant properties (from which we previously incurred non-reimbursable property expenses), partially offset by property expenses incurred on acquisitions since January 1, 2022.
Merger and Other Expenses
For the three months ended March 31, 2022, merger and other expenses are primarily comprised of reversals of estimated liabilities for German real estate transfer taxes that were previously recorded in connection with mergers in prior years and costs incurred in connection with the CPA:18 Merger.
Impairment Charges — Real Estate
Our impairment charges on real estate are more fully described in

Gain on sale of real estate, net, consists of gains on the sale of properties that were disposed of or subject to a purchase option during the reporting period, as more fully described in
Note 5
and
Note 14
.
Interest Expense
For the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, interest expense increased by $21.1 million primarily due to (i) $10.3 million of interest expense incurred during the current year period related to non-recourse mortgage loans assumed in the CPA:18 Merger, (ii) higher outstanding balances and interest rates on our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility, and (iii) two senior unsecured notes issuances totaling $334.8 million (based on the exchange rate of the euro on the dates of issuance) with a weighted-average interest rate of 3.6% completed since January 1, 2022, partially offset by (i) the weakening of foreign currencies (primarily the euro and British pound sterling) in relation to the U.S. dollar between the periods and (ii) the reduction of our mortgage debt outstanding by prepaying or repaying at or close to maturity a total of $196.4 million of non-recourse mortgage loans with a weighted-average interest rate of 5.3% since January 1, 2022 (
Note 10

The timing and amount of such gains or losses cannot always be estimated and are subject to fluctuation. Certain
of our foreign currency-denominated unsecured debt instruments were designated as net investment hedges during the
three months ended March 31, 2023

Increase for the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 is primarily due to funding of this construction loan since January 1, 2022, which has an interest rate of 6.0%.
Provision for Income Taxes
For the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, provision for income taxes within our Real Estate segment increased by $8.5 million, primarily due to (i) the release of deferred tax assets in connection with the tax restructuring of certain international properties during the current year period, (ii) higher current taxes as a result of rent increases driven by CPI adjustments at existing international properties, and (iii) the impact of international property acquisitions.
Investment Management
We earn revenue as the advisor to the Managed Programs. For the periods presented, we acted as advisor to the following Managed Programs: CPA:18 – Global (through August 1, 2022) and CESH. Upon completion of the CPA:18 Merger on August 1, 2022, the advisory agreement with CPA:18 – Global was terminated, and we ceased earning revenue from CPA:18 – Global.
We no longer raise capital for new or existing funds, but we currently expect to continue managing CESH and earn the various fees described below through the end of its life cycle (

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources and Uses of Cash During the Period
We use the cash flow generated from our investments primarily to meet our operating expenses, service debt, and fund dividends to stockholders. Our cash flows fluctuate periodically due to a number of factors, which may include, among other things: the timing of our equity and debt offerings; the timing of purchases and sales of real estate; the timing of the repayment of mortgage loans and receipt of lease revenues; the timing and amount of other lease-related payments; the timing of settlement of foreign currency transactions; changes in foreign currency exchange rates; and the timing of distributions from equity method investments. We no longer receive certain fees and distributions from CPA:18 – Global following the completion of the CPA:18 Merger on August 1, 2022 (
Note 1
). Despite these fluctuations, we believe that we will generate sufficient cash from operations to meet our normal recurring short-term and long-term liquidity needs. We may also use existing cash resources, available capacity under our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility, proceeds from term loans or other bank debt (
Note 16
), proceeds from dispositions of properties, and the issuance of additional debt or equity securities, such as issuances of common stock through our ATM Forwards (
Note 12
), in order to meet these needs. We assess our ability to access capital on an ongoing basis. Our sources and uses of cash during the period are described below.
Operating Activities
— Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $46.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to an increase in cash flow generated from net investment activity (including properties acquired in the CPA:18 Merger (
Note 1
)) and scheduled rent increases at existing properties, partially offset by higher interest expense.
Investing Activities
— Our investing activities are generally comprised of real estate-related transactions (purchases and sales) and funding for build-to-suit activities and other capital expenditures on real estate. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2023, we funded an investment deposit of $467.1 million related to an acquisition that closed in April 2023 (
Note 16
).
Financing Activities
— Our financing activities are generally comprised of borrowings and repayments under our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility and Unsecured Term Loans, issuances of the Senior Unsecured Notes, payments and prepayments of non-recourse mortgage loans, and payments of dividends to stockholders. In addition to these types of transactions, during the three months ended March 31, 2023, we received $249.9 million in net proceeds from the issuance of common stock under our ATM Program (
Note 12
).

•
cash and cash equivalents totaling $147.9 million. Of this amount, $110.5 million, at then-current exchange rates, was held in foreign subsidiaries, and we could be subject to restrictions or significant costs should we decide to repatriate these amounts;
•
our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, with available capacity of approximately $1.1 billion (net of amounts reserved for standby letters of credit totaling $1.9 million);
•
available proceeds under our ATM Forwards of approximately $385.2 million; and
•
unleveraged properties that had an aggregate asset carrying value of approximately $13.5 billion at March 31, 2023, although there can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain financing for these properties.
We may also access the capital markets through additional debt (denominated in both U.S. dollars and euros) and equity offerings, as well as term loans and other bank debt (

Cash Requirements and Liquidity
As of March 31, 2023, we had (i) $147.9 million of cash and cash equivalents, (ii) approximately $1.1 billion of available capacity under our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility (net of amounts reserved for standby letters of credit totaling $1.9 million), and (iii) available proceeds under our ATM Forwards of approximately $385.2 million. Our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility includes a $1.8 billion Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility and Unsecured Term Loans outstanding totaling $566.5 million as of March 31, 2023 (
Note 10
), and is scheduled to mature on February 20, 2025. As of March 31, 2023, scheduled debt principal payments total $325.6 million through December 31, 2023 and $1.6 billion through December 31, 2024, and our Senior Unsecured Notes do not start to mature until April 2024 (
Note 10
).
During the next 12 months following March 31, 2023 and thereafter, we expect that our significant cash requirements will include:
•
funding acquisitions of new investments (
Note 4
);
•
funding future capital commitments and tenant improvement allowances (
Note 4
);
•
making scheduled principal and balloon payments on our debt obligations (
Note 10
);
•
making scheduled interest payments on our debt obligations (future interest payments total $925.9 million, with $253.2 million due during the next 12 months; interest on unhedged variable-rate debt obligations was calculated using the applicable annual variable interest rates and balances outstanding at March 31, 2023); and
•
other normal recurring operating expenses.
We expect to fund these cash requirements through cash generated from operations, cash received from dispositions of properties, the use of our cash reserves or unused amounts on our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility (as described above), proceeds from term loans or other bank debt (
Note 16
), issuances of common stock through our ATM Program (
Note 12
), and potential issuances of additional debt or equity securities. We may also choose to prepay certain of our non-recourse mortgage loan obligations, depending on our capital needs and market conditions at that time.
Our liquidity could be adversely affected by unanticipated costs and greater-than-anticipated operating expenses. To the extent that our working capital reserve is insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, additional funds may be provided from cash from operations to meet our normal recurring short-term and long-term liquidity needs. We may also use existing cash resources, available capacity under our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, mortgage loan proceeds, and the issuance of additional debt or equity securities to meet these needs.
Certain amounts disclosed above are based on the applicable foreign currency exchange rate at March 31, 2023.
Supplemental Financial Measures
In the real estate industry, analysts and investors employ certain non-GAAP supplemental financial measures in order to facilitate meaningful comparisons between periods and among peer companies. Additionally, in the formulation of our goals and in the evaluation of the effectiveness of our strategies, we use Funds from Operations (“FFO”) and AFFO, which are non-GAAP measures defined by our management. We believe that these measures are useful to investors to consider because they may assist them to better understand and measure the performance of our business over time and against similar companies. A description of FFO and AFFO and reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided below.
Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations
Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), an industry trade group, has promulgated a non-GAAP measure known as FFO, which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental measure, when used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP, to reflect the operating performance of a REIT. The use of FFO is recommended by the REIT industry as a supplemental non-GAAP measure. FFO is not equivalent to, nor a substitute for, net income or loss as determined under GAAP.
W. P. Carey 3/31/2023 10-Q
–
53
We define FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the standards established by the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, as restated in December 2018. The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of property, impairment charges on real estate or other assets incidental to the company’s main business, gains or losses on changes in control of interests in real estate, and depreciation and amortization from real estate assets; and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments are calculated to reflect FFO.
We also modify the NAREIT computation of FFO to adjust GAAP net income for certain non-cash charges, such as amortization of real estate-related intangibles, deferred income tax benefits and expenses, straight-line rent and related reserves, other non-cash rent adjustments, non-cash allowance for credit losses on loans receivable and finance leases, stock-based compensation, non-cash environmental accretion expense, amortization of discounts and premiums on debt, and amortization of deferred financing costs. Our assessment of our operations is focused on long-term sustainability and not on such non-cash items, which may cause short-term fluctuations in net income but have no impact on cash flows. Additionally, we exclude non-core income and expenses, such as gains or losses from extinguishment of debt and merger and acquisition expenses. We also exclude realized and unrealized gains/losses on foreign currency exchange rate movements (other than those realized on the settlement of foreign currency derivatives), which are not considered fundamental attributes of our business plan and do not affect our overall long-term operating performance. We refer to our modified definition of FFO as AFFO. We exclude these items from GAAP net income to arrive at AFFO as they are not the primary drivers in our decision-making process and excluding these items provides investors a view of our portfolio performance over time and makes it more comparable to other REITs that are currently not engaged in acquisitions, mergers, and restructuring, which are not part of our normal business operations. AFFO also reflects adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and jointly owned investments. We use AFFO as one measure of our operating performance when we formulate corporate goals, evaluate the effectiveness of our strategies, and determine executive compensation.
We believe that AFFO is a useful supplemental measure for investors to consider as we believe it will help them to better assess the sustainability of our operating performance without the potentially distorting impact of these short-term fluctuations. However, there are limits on the usefulness of AFFO to investors. For example, impairment charges and unrealized foreign currency losses that we exclude may become actual realized losses upon the ultimate disposition of the properties in the form of lower cash proceeds or other considerations. We use our FFO and AFFO measures as supplemental financial measures of operating performance. We do not use our FFO and AFFO measures as, nor should they be considered to be, alternatives to net income computed under GAAP, or as alternatives to net cash provided by operating activities computed under GAAP, or as indicators of our ability to fund our cash needs.

__________
(a)
Amount for the three months ended March 31, 2023 includes a gain on sale of real estate of $176.2 million recognized upon a tenant’s notice of its intention to repurchase a portfolio of 78 net-lease self-storage properties and the reclassification of the investment to net investments in sales-type leases (
N
ote 5
).
(b)
Amount for the three months ended March 31, 2022 includes our $4.6 million proportionate share of an impairment charge recognized on an equity method investment in real estate.
(c)
Equity income, including amounts that are not typically recognized for FFO and AFFO, is recognized within Earnings (losses) from equity method investments on the consolidated statements of income. This represents adjustments to equity income to reflect FFO and AFFO on a pro rata basis.
(d)
Adjustments disclosed elsewhere in this reconciliation are on a consolidated basis. This adjustment reflects our FFO or AFFO on a pro rata basis.
(e)
Primarily comprised of gains and losses on extinguishment of debt, the mark-to-market fair value of equity securities, and foreign currency exchange rate movements, as well as non-cash allowance for credit losses on loans receivable and finance leases.
(f)
Amount for the three months ended March 31, 2022 is primarily comprised of reversals of estimated liabilities for German real estate transfer taxes that were previously recorded in connection with mergers in prior years and costs incurred in connection with the CPA:18 Merger.
While we believe that FFO and AFFO are important supplemental measures, they should not be considered as alternatives to net income as an indication of a company’s operating performance. These non-GAAP measures should be used in conjunction with net income as defined by GAAP. FFO and AFFO, or similarly titled measures disclosed by other REITs, may not be comparable to our FFO and AFFO measures.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Market Risk
Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, and equity prices. The primary market risks that we are exposed to are interest rate risk and foreign currency exchange risk; however, we do not use derivative instruments to hedge credit/market risks or for speculative purposes. From time to time, we may enter into foreign currency collars to hedge our foreign currency cash flow exposures.
We are also exposed to further market risk as a result of tenant concentrations in certain industries and/or geographic regions, since adverse market factors can affect the ability of tenants in a particular industry/region to meet their respective lease obligations. In order to manage this risk, we view our collective tenant roster as a portfolio and we attempt to diversify such portfolio so that we are not overexposed to a particular industry or geographic region.
W. P. Carey 3/31/2023 10-Q
–
57
Interest Rate Risk
The values of our real estate and related fixed-rate debt obligations, as well as the values of our unsecured debt obligations, are subject to fluctuations based on changes in interest rates. The value of our real estate is also subject to fluctuations based on local and regional economic conditions and changes in the creditworthiness of lessees, which may affect our ability to refinance property-level mortgage debt when balloon payments are scheduled, if we do not choose to repay the debt when due. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political conditions, and other factors beyond our control. An increase in interest rates would likely cause the fair value of our assets to decrease. Increases in interest rates may also have an impact on the credit profile of certain tenants.
We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through our borrowing activities. To limit this exposure, we generally seek long-term debt financing on a fixed-rate basis. However, we are subject to variable-rate interest on our Unsecured Term Loans, Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility, and certain of our non-recourse mortgage debt. We have entered into, and may continue to enter into, interest rate swap agreements or interest rate cap agreements with counterparties related to certain of our variable-rate non-recourse mortgage loans. See
Note 9
for additional information on our interest rate swaps and caps.
At March 31, 2023, a significant portion (approximately 83.3%) of our long-term debt either bore interest at fixed rates or was swapped or capped to a fixed rate. Our debt obligations are more fully described in
Note 10
and
Liquidity and Capital Resources — Summary of Financing

(a)
Amounts are based on the exchange rate at March 31, 2023, as applicable.
(b)
Amounts after 2023 are primarily comprised of principal payments for our Senior Unsecured Notes (
Note 10
).
The estimated fair value of our fixed-rate debt and our variable-rate debt that currently bears interest at fixed rates or has effectively been converted to a fixed rate through the use of interest rate swaps, or that has been subject to interest rate caps, is affected by changes in interest rates. Annual interest expense on our unhedged variable-rate debt that does not bear interest at fixed rates at March 31, 2023 would increase or decrease by $7.4 million for our euro-denominated debt, by $3.8 million for our British pound sterling-denominated debt, by $2.0 million for our U.S. dollar-denominated debt, and by $0.2 million for our Japanese yen-denominated debt, for each respective 1% change in annual interest rates.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
We own international investments, primarily in Europe, Canada, and Japan, and as a result are subject to risk from the effects of exchange rate movements in various foreign currencies, primarily the euro, the British pound sterling, the Canadian dollar, the Japanese yen, and certain other currencies which may affect future costs and cash flows. We have obtained, and may in the future obtain, non-recourse mortgage financing in the local currency. We have also completed several offerings of euro-denominated senior notes, and have borrowed under our Senior Unsecured Credit Facility in foreign currencies, including the euro, British pound sterling, and Japanese yen (
Note 10
). Volatile market conditions arising from certain macroeconomic factors may result in significant fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. To the extent that currency fluctuations increase or decrease rental revenues, as translated to U.S. dollars, the change in debt service (comprised of principal and interest, excluding balloon payments), as translated to U.S. dollars, will partially offset the effect of fluctuations in revenue and, to some extent, mitigate the risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We estimate that, for a 1% increase or decrease in the exchange rate between the euro, British pound sterling, or Japanese yen and the U.S. dollar, there would be a corresponding change in the projected estimated cash flow (scheduled future rental revenues, net of scheduled future debt service payments for the next 12 months) for our consolidated foreign operations at March 31, 2023 of $2.8 million, $0.3 million, and less than $0.1 million, respectively, excluding the impact of our derivative instruments.
W. P. Carey 3/31/2023 10-Q
–
58
In addition, we may use currency hedging to further reduce the exposure to our equity cash flow. We are generally a net receiver of these currencies (we receive more cash than we pay out), and therefore our foreign operations benefit from a weaker U.S. dollar and are adversely affected by a stronger U.S. dollar, relative to the foreign currency.
We enter into foreign currency collars to hedge certain of our foreign currency cash flow exposures. See
Note 9
for additional information on our foreign currency collars.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Concentrations of credit risk arise when a number of tenants are engaged in similar business activities or have similar economic risks or conditions that could cause them to default on their lease obligations to us. We regularly monitor our portfolio to assess potential concentrations of credit risk. While we believe our portfolio is well-diversified, it does contain concentrations in certain areas. There have been no material changes in our concentration of credit risk from what was disclosed in the 2022 Annual Report.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our disclosure controls and procedures include internal controls and other procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in this and other reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the required time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. It should be noted that no system of controls can provide complete assurance of achieving a company’s objectives and that future events may impact the effectiveness of a system of controls.
Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, after conducting an evaluation, together with members of our management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2023, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective as of March 31, 2023 at a reasonable level of assurance.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
