EXPLANATORY NOTE

This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2024 of Kite Realty Group Trust, Kite Realty Group, L.P. and its subsidiaries. Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to “Kite Realty Group Trust” or the “Parent Company” mean Kite Realty Group Trust, and references to the “Operating Partnership” mean Kite Realty Group, L.P. and its consolidated subsidiaries. The terms “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, collectively, and those entities owned or controlled by the Parent Company and/or the Operating Partnership.

The Operating Partnership is engaged in the ownership, operation, acquisition, development and redevelopment of high-quality, open-air shopping centers and mixed-use assets that are primarily grocery-anchored and located in high-growth Sun Belt markets and select strategic gateway markets in the United States, and the Parent Company conducts substantially all of its activities through the Operating Partnership and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Parent Company is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and, as of March 31, 2024, owned approximately 98.3% of the common partnership interests in the Operating Partnership (“General Partner Units”). The remaining 1.7% of the common partnership interests (“Limited Partner Units” and, together with the General Partner Units, the “Common Units”) are owned by the limited partners.

We believe combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership into this single report benefits investors by:

•enhancing investors’ understanding of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;

•eliminating duplicative disclosure and providing a more streamlined and readable presentation of information as a substantial portion of the Company’s disclosure applies to both the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership; and

•creating time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.

We believe it is important to understand the few differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership in the context of how we operate as an interrelated consolidated company. The Parent Company has no material assets or liabilities other than its investment in the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company issues public equity from time to time but does not have any indebtedness as all debt is incurred by the Operating Partnership. In addition, the Parent Company currently does not nor does it intend to guarantee any debt of the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership has numerous wholly owned subsidiaries, and it also owns interests in certain joint ventures. These subsidiaries and joint ventures own and operate retail shopping centers and other real estate assets. The Operating Partnership is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity. Except for net proceeds from equity issuances by the Parent Company, which are contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for General Partner Units, the Operating Partnership generates the capital required by the business through its operations, its incurrence of indebtedness, and the issuance of Limited Partner Units to third parties.

Shareholders’ equity and partners’ capital are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of the Parent Company and those of the Operating Partnership. In order to highlight this and other differences between the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, there are separate sections in this report, as applicable, that separately discuss the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, including separate financial statements and separate Exhibit 31 and 32 certifications. In the sections that combine disclosure of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, this report refers to actions or holdings as being actions or holdings of the collective Company.

KITE REALTY GROUP TRUST AND KITE REALTY GROUP, L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

($ in thousands, except share, per share, unit and per unit amounts and where indicated in millions or billions)

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Kite Realty Group Trust (the “Parent Company”), through its majority-owned subsidiary, Kite Realty Group, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), owns interests in various operating subsidiaries and joint ventures engaged in the ownership, operation, acquisition, development and redevelopment of high-quality, open-air shopping centers and mixed-use assets that are primarily grocery-anchored and located in high-growth Sun Belt markets and select strategic gateway markets in the United States. The terms “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership, collectively, and those entities owned or controlled by the Parent Company and/or the Operating Partnership.

The Operating Partnership was formed on August 16, 2004, when the Parent Company contributed properties and the net proceeds from an initial public offering (“IPO”) of shares of its common stock to the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company was organized in Maryland in 2004 to succeed in the development, acquisition, construction and real estate businesses of its predecessor. We believe the Company qualifies as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

The Parent Company is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and, as of March 31, 2024, owned approximately 98.3% of the common partnership interests in the Operating Partnership (“General Partner Units”). The remaining 1.7% of the common partnership interests (“Limited Partner Units” and, together with the General Partner Units, the “Common Units”) were owned by the limited partners. As the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company has full, exclusive and complete responsibility and discretion in the day-to-day management and control of the Operating Partnership. The Parent Company and the Operating Partnership are operated as one enterprise. The management of the Parent Company consists of the same members as the management of the Operating Partnership. As the sole general partner with control of the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting purposes, and the Parent Company does not have any significant assets other than its investment in the Operating Partnership.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) may have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the presentation not misleading. The unaudited consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2024 and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary in the opinion of management to present fairly the financial information set forth therein. The unaudited consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the combined Annual Report on Form 10-K of the Parent Company and the Operating Partnership for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected on an annual basis.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company’s portfolio consisted of the following:


	Properties	Square Footage
Operating retail properties(1)	180	28,096,542
Office properties	1	287,291
Development and redevelopment projects:
Carillon medical office building	1	126,000
The Corner – IN(2)	1	24,000
Hamilton Crossing Centre	1	92,283
Edwards Multiplex – Ontario	1	124,614

(1)Included within operating retail properties are 10 properties that contain an office component. Of the 180 operating retail properties, 177 are consolidated within these financial statements and the remaining three are accounted for under the equity method.

(2)This property is held in an unconsolidated joint venture in which the Company has a 50% ownership interest.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Components of Investment Properties

The following table summarizes the composition of the Company’s investment properties as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 (in thousands):


	Balance as of
	March 31, 2024		December 31, 2023
Land, buildings and improvements	$	7,696,890	$	7,684,066
Construction in progress	61,482		55,995
Investment properties, at cost	$	7,758,372	$	7,740,061

Components of Rental Income including Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts

Rental income related to the Company’s operating leases is comprised of the following for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2024		2023
Fixed contractual lease payments – operating leases	$	160,540	$	158,590
Variable lease payments – operating leases	40,470		39,754
Bad debt reserve	(589)		(1,555)
Straight-line rent adjustments	3,363		3,858
Straight-line rent reserve for uncollectibility	(237)		(314)
Amortization of in-place lease liabilities, net	2,266		2,730
Rental income	$	205,813	$	203,063

The Company makes estimates as to the collectability of its accounts receivable. In making these estimates, the Company reviews a variety of qualitative and quantitative data and considers such factors as the credit quality of our customer, historical write-off experience and current economic trends, to make a subjective determination. An allowance for uncollectible accounts, including future credit losses of the accrued straight-line rent receivables, is maintained for estimated losses resulting from the inability of certain tenants to meet contractual obligations under their lease agreements.

Short-Term Deposits

As of March 31, 2024, the Company has $265.0 million in short-term deposits invested at Goldman Sachs Bank USA and KeyBank National Association, which will be used to satisfy all 2024 debt maturities. The deposit balance approximates fair value and earns interest at a weighted average rate of 5.34% with a final maturity date of July 22, 2024. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company earned $2.9 million of interest income on the deposits, which is recorded within “Other income, net” in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

Consolidation and Investments in Joint Ventures

The accompanying financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis and include all accounts of the Parent Company, the Operating Partnership, the taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”) of the Operating Partnership, subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership that are controlled and any variable interest entities (“VIEs”) in which the Operating Partnership is the primary beneficiary. As of March 31, 2024, we owned investments in two consolidated joint ventures that were VIEs in which the partners did not have substantive participating rights and we were the primary beneficiary. As of March 31, 2024, these consolidated VIEs had mortgage debt totaling $111.5 million, which was secured by assets of the VIEs totaling $218.1 million. The Operating Partnership guarantees the mortgage debt of these VIEs.

The Operating Partnership is considered a VIE as the limited partners do not hold kick-out rights or substantive participating rights. The Parent Company consolidates the Operating Partnership as it is the primary beneficiary.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company also owned investments in four unconsolidated joint ventures accounted for under the equity method, which are not considered VIEs. On January 31, 2024, the joint venture that owned Glendale Center Apartments, of which we have an 11.5% ownership interest, sold the 267-unit property to a third party, resulting in a gain on sale of $20.2 million. The Company recognized its share of the gain on sale of unconsolidated property of $2.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024. In addition, the Company received a $1.6 million distribution upon the disposition of the property. The Company maintains an investment in the joint venture, which is in the process of winding up its activities and distributing remaining net assets. Glendale Center Apartments is adjacent to our Glendale Town Center operating retail property in the Indianapolis MSA.

Income Taxes and REIT Compliance

Parent Company

The Parent Company has been organized and operated, and intends to continue to operate, in a manner that will enable it to maintain its qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a result, it generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the earnings that it distributes to the extent it distributes its “REIT taxable income” (determined before the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains) to shareholders of the Parent Company and meets certain other requirements on a recurring basis. To the extent that it satisfies this distribution requirement but distributes less than 100% of its taxable income, it will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its undistributed REIT taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates. REITs are subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements. If the Parent Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates for a period of four years following the year in which qualification is lost. Additionally, we may also be subject to certain taxes enacted by the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 that are applicable to non-REIT corporations, including the nondeductible 1% excise tax on certain stock repurchases. We may also be subject to certain U.S. federal, state and local taxes on our income and property and to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed taxable income even if the Parent Company does qualify as a REIT. The Operating Partnership intends to continue to make distributions to the Parent Company in amounts sufficient to assist the Parent Company in adhering to REIT requirements and maintaining its REIT status.

We have elected to treat Kite Realty Holdings, LLC and IWR Protective Corporation as TRSs with respect to the REIT, and we may elect to treat other subsidiaries as TRSs in the future. This election enables us to receive income and provide services that would otherwise be impermissible for a REIT. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting bases and the tax bases of assets and liabilities at the tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Operating Partnership

The allocated share of income and loss, other than the operations of our TRSs, is included in the income tax returns of the Operating Partnership’s partners. Accordingly, the only U.S. federal income taxes included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements are in connection with the TRSs.

Noncontrolling Interests

We report the non-redeemable noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries as equity, and the amount of consolidated net income attributable to these noncontrolling interests is set forth separately in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The following table summarizes the non-redeemable noncontrolling interests in consolidated properties for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2024		2023
Noncontrolling interests balance as of January 1,	$	2,430	$	5,370
Net income allocable to noncontrolling interests, excluding redeemable noncontrolling interests	67		104
Distributions to noncontrolling interests	(620)		—
Noncontrolling interests balance as of March 31,	$	1,877	$	5,474

Noncontrolling Interests – Joint Venture

Prior to the October 2021 merger with Retail Properties of America, Inc. (“RPAI”), RPAI entered into a joint venture related to the development, ownership and operation of the multifamily rental portion of the expansion project at One Loudoun Downtown – Pads G & H. The Company owns 90% of the joint venture.

Under terms defined in the joint venture agreement, after construction completion and stabilization of the development project (as defined in the joint venture agreement), the Company has the ability to call, and the joint venture partner has the ability to put to the Company, subject to certain conditions, the joint venture partner’s interest in the joint venture at fair value. As of March 31, 2024, these conditions for exercising the put and call options have been met but neither the Company nor the joint venture partner has exercised their respective options.

The joint venture is considered a VIE primarily because the Company’s joint venture partner does not have substantive kick-out rights or substantive participating rights. The Company is considered the primary beneficiary as it has a controlling financial interest in the joint venture. As such, the Company has consolidated this joint venture and presented the joint venture partner’s interests as noncontrolling interests.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests – Limited Partners

Limited Partner Units are redeemable noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership. We classify redeemable noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets outside of permanent equity because we may be required to pay cash to holders of Limited Partner Units upon redemption of their interests in the Operating Partnership or deliver registered shares upon their conversion. The carrying amount of the redeemable noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership is reflected at the greater of historical book value or redemption value with a corresponding adjustment to additional paid-in capital. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the redemption value of the redeemable noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership exceeded the historical book value, and the balances were accordingly adjusted to redemption value.

We allocate net operating results of the Operating Partnership after noncontrolling interests in the consolidated properties based on the partners’ respective weighted average ownership interest. We adjust the redeemable noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership at the end of each reporting period to reflect their interests in the Operating Partnership or redemption value. This adjustment is reflected in our shareholders’ and Parent Company’s equity. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the weighted average interests of the Parent Company and the limited partners in the Operating Partnership were as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2024		2023
Parent Company’s weighted average interest in the Operating Partnership	98.4	%	98.7	%
Limited partners’ weighted average interests in the Operating Partnership	1.6	%	1.3	%

As of March 31, 2024, the Parent Company’s interest and the limited partners’ redeemable noncontrolling ownership interests in the Operating Partnership were 98.3% and 1.7%. As of December 31, 2023, the Parent Company’s interest and the limited partners’ redeemable noncontrolling ownership interests in the Operating Partnership were 98.4% and 1.6%.

Concurrent with the Parent Company’s IPO and related formation transactions, certain individuals received Limited Partner Units of the Operating Partnership in exchange for their interests in certain properties. The limited partners have the right to redeem Limited Partner Units for cash or, at the Parent Company’s election, common shares of the Parent Company in an amount equal to the market value of an equivalent number of common shares of the Parent Company at the time of redemption. Such common shares must be registered, which is not fully in the Parent Company’s control. Therefore, the limited partners’ interest is not reflected within permanent equity. The Parent Company also has the right to redeem the Limited Partner Units directly from the limited partner in exchange for either cash in the amount specified above or a number of its common shares equal to the number of Limited Partner Units being redeemed.

There were 3,707,004 and 3,512,868 Limited Partner Units outstanding as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The increase in Limited Partner Units outstanding from December 31, 2023 is due to non-cash compensation awards granted to our executive officers in the form of Limited Partner Units.

The redeemable noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2024		2023
Redeemable noncontrolling interests balance as of January 1,	$	73,287	$	53,967
Net income allocable to redeemable noncontrolling interests	213		65
Distributions declared to redeemable noncontrolling interests	(882)		(728)
Other, net including adjustments to redemption value	1,095		3,750
Total limited partners’ interests in the Operating Partnership balance as of March 31,	$	73,713	$	57,054

Fair Value Measurements

We follow the framework established under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, for measuring fair value of non-financial assets and liabilities that are not required or permitted to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis but only in certain circumstances, such as a business combination or upon determination of an impairment.

Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets are categorized based on the inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:

•Level 1 fair value inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments to which we have access.

•Level 2 fair value inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for similar instruments, either directly or indirectly, and appropriately consider counterparty creditworthiness in the valuation.

•Level 3 fair value inputs reflect our best estimate of inputs and assumptions market participants would use in pricing an instrument at the measurement date. The inputs are unobservable in the market and significant to the valuation estimate.

In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based upon inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

Effects of Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2024, the SEC issued a final rule, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors. This final rule is effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning in 2025 and requires companies to annually disclose, among other things, (i) climate-related risks that have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the Company, including on its strategy, results of operations, or financial condition, (ii) activities to mitigate or adapt to such risks, including a quantitative and qualitative description of material expenditures incurred and impacts on estimates and assumptions, (iii) information about oversight by a company’s board of directors of climate-related risks and management’s role in managing material climate-related risks; and (iv) information on any climate-related targets or goals that are material to the company’s business, results of operations, or financial condition. In addition, the final rule requires (i) disclosure of Scope 1 and/or Scope 2 greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions on a phased-in basis when those emissions are material, (ii) the filing of an attestation

report covering the disclosure of the Scope 1 and/or Scope 2 emissions on a phased-in basis, and (iii) disclosure of the financial statement effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions. In April 2024, the SEC announced a stay of these climate disclosure rules pending judicial review. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of this final rule until it becomes effective.

NOTE 3. DEFERRED COSTS AND INTANGIBLES, NET

Deferred costs consist primarily of acquired lease intangible assets, broker fees and capitalized internal commissions incurred in connection with lease originations. Deferred leasing costs, lease intangibles and similar costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases.

(5)The revolving line of credit has two six-month extension options that the Company can exercise, at its election, subject to (i) customary representations and warranties, including, but not limited to, the absence of an event of default as defined in the unsecured credit agreement and (ii) payment of an extension fee equal to 0.075% of the revolving line of credit capacity.

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility

In July 2022, the Operating Partnership, as borrower, and the Company entered into the Second Amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of July 8, 2021 (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of financial institutions to provide for an unsecured revolving credit facility aggregating $1.1 billion (the “Revolving Facility”) and a seven-year $300.0 million unsecured term loan (the “$300M Term Loan”). Under the Second Amendment, the Operating Partnership has the option, subject to certain customary conditions, to increase the Revolving Facility and/or incur additional term loans in an aggregate amount for all such increases and additional loans of up to $600.0 million, for a total facility amount of up to $2.0 billion. The Revolving Facility has a scheduled maturity date of January 8, 2026, which maturity date may be extended for up to two additional periods of six months at the Operating Partnership’s option, subject to certain conditions.

Borrowings under the Revolving Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to SOFR plus a margin based on the Operating Partnership’s leverage ratio or credit rating, respectively, plus a facility fee based on the Operating Partnership’s leverage ratio or credit rating, respectively. The SOFR rate is also subject to an additional 0.10% spread adjustment as specified in the Second Amendment. The Revolving Facility is currently priced on the leverage-based pricing grid. In accordance with the Credit Agreement, the credit spread set forth in the leverage grid resets quarterly based on the Company’s leverage, as calculated at the previous quarter end. The Company may irrevocably elect to convert to the ratings-based pricing grid at any time. As of March 31, 2024, making such an election would have resulted in a lower interest rate; however, the Company had not made the election to convert to the ratings-based pricing grid. The Credit Agreement includes a sustainability metric based on targeted greenhouse gas emission reductions, which results in a reduction of the otherwise applicable interest rate margin by one basis point upon achievement of targets set forth therein.

The Operating Partnership’s ability to borrow under the Credit Agreement is subject to ongoing compliance by the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries with various restrictive covenants, including with respect to liens, transactions with affiliates, dividends, mergers and asset sales. In addition, the Credit Agreement requires that the Operating Partnership satisfy certain financial covenants, including (i) a maximum leverage ratio; (ii) a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio; (iii) a maximum secured indebtedness ratio; (iv) a maximum unsecured leverage ratio; and (v) a minimum unencumbered interest coverage ratio. As of March 31, 2024, we were in compliance with all such covenants.

Unsecured Term Loans

As of March 31, 2024, the Operating Partnership has the following unsecured term loans: (i) a $120.0 million unsecured term loan due July 2024 (the “$120M Term Loan”), (ii) a $250.0 million unsecured term loan due October 2025 (the “$250M Term Loan”), (iii) a $150.0 million unsecured term loan due July 2026 (the “$150M Term Loan”), and (iv) the $300M Term Loan that matures in July 2029, each of which bears interest at a rate of SOFR plus a credit spread. The $120M Term Loan, $150M Term Loan and $300M Term Loan are each priced on a ratings-based pricing grid while the $250M Term Loan is priced on a leverage-based pricing grid. The agreements related to the $150M Term Loan and $300M Term Loan include a sustainability metric based on targeted greenhouse gas emission reductions, which results in a reduction of the otherwise applicable interest rate margin by one basis point upon achievement of targets set forth in each agreement.

(1)The maturity date may be extended for up to three additional periods of one year each at the Operating Partnership’s option, subject to certain conditions.

Under the agreement related to the $120M Term Loan and the $150M Term Loan, the Operating Partnership has the option to increase each of the term loans to $250.0 million upon the Operating Partnership’s request, subject to certain conditions, including obtaining commitments from any one or more lenders, whether or not currently party to the term loan agreement, to provide such increased amounts. The Operating Partnership is permitted to prepay each of the $120M Term Loan and $150M Term Loan, in whole or in part, at any time without being subject to a prepayment fee.

The Operating Partnership has the option to increase the $250M Term Loan to $300.0 million, subject to certain conditions including obtaining commitments from any one or more lenders, whether or not currently party to the term loan agreement, to provide such increased amounts. The Operating Partnership is permitted to prepay the $250M Term Loan in whole or in part, at any time, subject to a prepayment fee if prepaid on or before October 25, 2023.

The Operating Partnership is permitted to prepay the $300M Term Loan in whole or in part, at any time, subject to a prepayment fee if prepaid on or before July 29, 2024.

The unsecured term loan agreements contain representations, financial and other affirmative and negative covenants and events of default that are substantially similar to those contained in the Credit Agreement. The unsecured term loan agreements all rank pari passu with the Operating Partnership’s Revolving Facility and other unsecured indebtedness of the Operating Partnership.

Fair Value of Fixed and Variable Rate Debt

As of March 31, 2024, the estimated fair value of fixed rate debt was $2.2 billion compared to the book value of $2.3 billion. The fair value was estimated using Level 2 and 3 inputs with cash flows discounted at current borrowing rates for similar instruments, which ranged from 5.75% to 7.11%. As of March 31, 2024, the estimated fair value of variable rate debt was $839.9 million compared to the book value of $836.4 million. The fair value was estimated using Level 2 and 3 inputs with cash flows discounted at current borrowing rates for similar instruments, which ranged from 6.48% to 7.33%.

NOTE 6. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS, HEDGING ACTIVITIES AND OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

In order to manage potential future variable interest rate risk, we enter into interest rate derivative agreements from time to time. We do not use interest rate derivative agreements for trading or speculative purposes. The agreements with each of our derivative counterparties provide that in the event of default on any of our indebtedness, we could also be declared in default on our derivative obligations.

The following table summarizes the terms and fair values of the Company’s derivative financial instruments that were designated and qualified as part of a hedging relationship as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 (dollars in thousands):

Forward-Starting Cash Flow(3)	Three	$	150,000	SOFR	3.44	%	6/28/2024	6/28/2034	$	—	$	(700)

(1)Derivatives in an asset position are included within “Prepaid and other assets” and derivatives in a liability position are included within “Accounts payable and accrued expenses” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

(2)The derivative agreements swap a blended fixed rate of 4.52% for a blended floating rate of three-month SOFR plus 3.70%.

(3)The forward-starting interest rate swaps were terminated in conjunction with the issuance of the Notes Due 2034.

In December 2023, we entered into three forward-starting interest rate swap agreements with notional amounts totaling $150.0 million that swap a floating rate of compound SOFR for a fixed rate of 3.44% with an effective date of June 28, 2024 and a maturity date of June 28, 2034. These interest rate swaps fixed the interest rate on a portion of the Notes Due 2034, which were issued in January 2024, and were subsequently terminated upon issuance of the Notes Due 2034. We received $0.7 million upon termination, which is included as a component of “Accumulated other comprehensive income” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and is being reclassified as a reduction to interest expense over the term of the debt.

In October 2022, we terminated two forward-starting interest rate swaps with notional amounts totaling $150.0 million and a maturity date of June 1, 2032 and received $30.9 million upon termination. This settlement is included as a component of “Accumulated other comprehensive income” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and is being reclassified to earnings over time as the hedged items are recognized in earnings. During the year ended December 31, 2023, we accelerated the reclassification of $3.1 million in accumulated other comprehensive income as a reduction to interest expense as a result of a portion of the hedged forecasted transaction becoming probable not to occur. In January 2024, we completed a public offering of the Notes Due 2034. The remaining balance in accumulated other comprehensive income is being reclassified as a reduction to interest expense over the term of the debt.

These interest rate derivative agreements are the only assets or liabilities that we record at fair value on a recurring basis. The valuation of these assets and liabilities is determined using widely accepted techniques including discounted cash flow analysis. These techniques consider the contractual terms of the derivatives (including the period to maturity) and use observable market-based inputs such as interest rate curves and implied volatilities. We also incorporate credit valuation adjustments into the fair value measurements to reflect nonperformance risk on both our part and that of the respective counterparties.

We have determined that the majority of the inputs used to value our derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, although the credit valuation adjustments associated with our derivatives use Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by us and our counterparties. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of our derivative positions and determined that the credit valuation adjustments were not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives. As a result, we have determined that our derivative valuations were classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to earnings over time as the hedged items are recognized in earnings. Approximately $4.9 million and $4.2 million was reclassified as a reduction to interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. As interest payments on our derivatives are made over the next 12 months, we estimate the decrease to interest expense to be approximately $22.5 million, assuming the current SOFR curve.

Unrealized gains and losses on our interest rate derivative agreements are the only components of the change in accumulated other comprehensive income.

NOTE 7. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Distributions

Our Board of Trustees declared a cash distribution of $0.25 per common share and Common Unit for the first quarter of 2024. This distribution was paid on April 12, 2024 to common shareholders and common unitholders of record as of April 5, 2024.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we declared a cash distribution of $0.24 per common share and Common Unit.

At-The-Market Offering Program

In February 2021, the Company and the Operating Partnership entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement (the “Equity Distribution Agreement”) with each of BofA Securities, Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. and Raymond James & Associates, Inc., pursuant to which the Company may sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate sales price of $150.0 million of its common shares of beneficial interest, $0.01 par value per share, under an at-the-market offering program (the “ATM Program”). In November 2021, the Company and the Operating Partnership amended the Equity Distribution Agreement to reflect their filing of a shelf registration statement on November 16, 2021 with the SEC. The Operating Partnership intends to use the net proceeds, if any, to repay borrowings under its Revolving Facility and other indebtedness and for working capital and other general corporate purposes. The Operating Partnership may also use the net proceeds for acquisitions of operating properties and the development or redevelopment of properties, although there are currently no understandings, commitments or agreements to do so. As of March 31, 2024, the Company has not sold any common shares under the ATM Program.

Share Repurchase Program

The Company has an existing share repurchase program under which it may repurchase, from time to time, up to a maximum of $300.0 million of its common shares (the “Share Repurchase Program”). The Company intends to fund any future repurchases under the Share Repurchase Program with cash on hand or availability under the Revolving Facility, subject to any applicable restrictions. The timing of share repurchases and the number of common shares to be repurchased under the Share Repurchase Program will depend upon prevailing market conditions, regulatory requirements and other factors. In February 2024, the Company extended the Share Repurchase Program for an additional year to February 28, 2025, if not terminated or extended prior to that date. As of March 31, 2024, the Company has not repurchased any shares under the Share Repurchase Program.

NOTE 8. EARNINGS PER SHARE OR UNIT

Basic earnings per share or unit is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares/units outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share/unit is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares/units outstanding during the period combined with the incremental average common shares/units that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all potentially dilutive common shares/units into common shares/units as of the earliest date possible.

Potentially dilutive securities include (i) outstanding options to acquire common shares; (ii) Limited Partner Units, which may be exchanged for either cash or common shares at the Parent Company’s option and under certain circumstances; (iii) AO LTIP Units; and (iv) deferred common share units, which may be credited to the personal accounts of non-employee trustees in lieu of compensation paid in cash or the issuance of common shares to such trustees. Limited Partner Units have been omitted from the Parent Company’s denominator for the purpose of computing diluted earnings per share since the effect of including those amounts in the denominator would have no dilutive impact. Weighted average Limited Partner Units outstanding were 3.6 million and 3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

NOTE 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Other Commitments and Contingencies

We are obligated under various completion guarantees with certain lenders and lease agreements with tenants to complete all or portions of a development project and tenant-specific space currently under construction. We believe we currently have sufficient financing in place to fund these projects and expect to do so primarily through free cash flow or borrowings on the Revolving Facility.

In 2017, we provided a repayment guaranty on a $33.8 million construction loan associated with the development of the Embassy Suites at the University of Notre Dame, consistent with our 35% ownership interest. Our portion of the repayment guaranty is limited to $5.9 million, and the guaranty’s term is through July 1, 2024, the maturity date of the construction loan. As of March 31, 2024, the outstanding loan balance was $32.5 million, of which our share was $11.4 million. The loan is secured by the hotel.

In 2021, we provided repayment and completion guaranties on loans totaling $66.2 million associated with the development of The Corner mixed-use project in the Indianapolis MSA. As of March 31, 2024, the outstanding balance of the loans was $65.6 million, of which our share was $32.8 million.

Legal Proceedings

We are not subject to any material litigation nor, to management’s knowledge, is any material litigation currently threatened against us. We are parties to routine litigation, claims, and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes that such matters will not have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows taken as a whole.

NOTE 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In connection with the preparation of our financial statements, we have evaluated events and transactions that occurred subsequent to March 31, 2024 for recognition and/or disclosure purposes. Based on this evaluation, there were no subsequent events from March 31, 2024 through the date the financial statements were issued.

Overview

Our Business and Properties

Kite Realty Group Trust is a publicly held REIT that, through its majority-owned subsidiary, Kite Realty Group, L.P., owns interests in various operating subsidiaries and joint ventures engaged in the ownership, operation, acquisition, development, and redevelopment of high-quality, open-air shopping centers and mixed-use assets that are primarily grocery-anchored and located in high-growth Sun Belt and select strategic gateway markets in the United States. We derive our revenue primarily from the collection of contractual rents and reimbursement payments from tenants under existing lease agreements at each of our properties. Therefore, our operating results depend materially on, among other things, the ability of our tenants to make required lease payments, the health and resilience of the U.S. retail sector, interest rate volatility, stability in the banking sector, job growth, the real estate market, and overall economic conditions.

As of March 31, 2024, we owned interests in 180 operating retail properties totaling approximately 28.1 million square feet and one office property with 0.3 million square feet. Of the 180 operating retail properties, 10 contain an office component. We also owned two development projects under construction as of this date and an additional two properties with future redevelopment opportunities.

Inflation

We believe inflationary concerns could negatively impact consumer confidence and spending and our tenants’ sales and overall health. This could, in turn, continue to put downward pricing pressure on rents that we are able to charge to new or renewing tenants, such that future rent spreads and, in some cases, our percentage rents, could be adversely impacted. Many of our leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation, including annual rent increases and requirements for tenants to pay a share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance or other operating expenses related to the maintenance of our properties, with escalation clauses in most leases. Over the last year, we have made significant improvements converting leases to include higher fixed-rent bumps while also including CPI-based, anti-gouging protection for tenants. However, the stated rent increases or limits on such tenant’s obligation to pay its share of operating expenses could be lower than the increase in inflation at any given time. Inflation may also increase labor or other general and administrative expenses that cannot be easily reduced.

Historically, economic indicators such as GDP growth, consumer confidence and employment have been correlated with demand for certain of our tenants’ products and services. If an economic recession returns, it could, among other impacts, (i) increase the number of our tenants that are unable to meet their lease obligations to us and (ii) limit the demand for space in our properties from new tenants.

Operating Activity

During the first quarter of 2024, we executed new and renewal leases on 185 individual spaces totaling 968,681 square feet (12.8% cash leasing spread on 130 comparable leases). New leases were signed on 38 individual spaces for 175,087 square feet of gross leasable area (“GLA”) (48.1% cash leasing spread on 19 comparable leases), while non-option renewal leases were signed on 93 individual spaces for 330,966 square feet of GLA (12.2% cash leasing spread on 57 comparable leases) and option renewals were signed on 54 individual spaces for 462,628 square feet of GLA (5.3% cash leasing spread). The blended cash spreads for comparable new and non-option renewal leases were 23.3%. Comparable new and renewal leases are defined as those for which the space was occupied by a tenant within the last 12 months.

Results of Operations

The comparability of results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 is affected by our development, redevelopment, and operating property acquisition and disposition activities during these periods. Therefore, we believe it is most useful to review the comparisons of our results of operations for these periods in conjunction with the discussion of our activities during those periods, which is set forth below.

Acquisitions

The following operating property was acquired during the period from January 1, 2023 through March 31, 2024:

(1)Transition date represents the date the property was transferred from our operating portfolio into redevelopment status. For legacy Retail Properties of America, Inc. (“RPAI”) projects, the transition date represents the later of the date of the closing of the merger (October 2021) and the date the project was transferred into redevelopment status.

(2)This property has been identified as a redevelopment property and is not included in the operating portfolio or the same property pool. The redevelopment projects at Hamilton Crossing Centre and The Corner – IN will include the creation of a mixed-used development.

(3)Approximately half of the Hamilton Crossing site was sold in January 2022 to Republic Airways, Inc. In addition to the sale, the Company entered into a development and construction management agreement for the development of a corporate campus for Republic Airways. Phase I of the corporate campus was completed in 2023.

Property operating expense to total revenue ratio			13.5		%				13.2		%

Rental income (including tenant reimbursements) increased $2.8 million, or 1.4%, due to the following (in thousands):


	Net change Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 to 2024
Properties or components of properties sold during 2023 and/or 2024	$	(3,629)
Properties under redevelopment or acquired during 2023 and/or 2024	2,691
Properties fully operational during 2023 and 2024 and other	3,688
Total	$	2,750

The net increase of $3.7 million in rental income for properties that were fully operational during 2023 and 2024 is primarily due to (i) an increase in lease termination income of $1.5 million, (ii) a decrease in bad debt expense of $1.1 million, (iii) an increase in tenant reimbursements of $0.7 million due to higher recoverable common area maintenance expenses, and

(iv) an increase in ancillary income of $0.4 million. The occupancy of the fully operational properties decreased from 92.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 to 90.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Other property-related revenue primarily consists of parking revenues, gains on the sale of land and other miscellaneous activity. This revenue decreased by $0.6 million primarily as a result of a decrease in parking revenue of $0.4 million due to the sale of Pam Am Plaza Garage in June 2023 along with a decrease in miscellaneous income of $0.2 million.

We recorded fee income of $0.3 million and $1.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, from property management and development services provided to third parties and unconsolidated joint ventures. The decrease in fee income is primarily related to a decrease in development fees earned related to the development of a corporate campus for Republic Airways at Hamilton Crossing Centre.

Property operating expenses increased $0.8 million, or 2.8%, due to the following (in thousands):


	Net change Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 to 2024
Properties or components of properties sold during 2023 and/or 2024	$	(1,328)
Properties under redevelopment or acquired during 2023 and/or 2024	273
Properties fully operational during 2023 and 2024 and other	1,822
Total	$	767

The net increase of $1.8 million in property operating expenses for properties that were fully operational during 2023 and 2024 is primarily due to increases in the following: (i) $0.7 million in landscaping and repairs and maintenance expenses, (ii) $0.6 million in insurance, (iii) $0.3 million in non-recoverable operating expenses, and (iv) $0.2 million in security expenses. As a percentage of revenue, property operating expenses increased from 13.2% to 13.5% due to an increase in expenses in 2024.

Real estate taxes decreased $0.6 million, or 2.4%, due to the following (in thousands):


	Net change Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 to 2024
Properties or components of properties sold during 2023 and/or 2024	$	(541)
Properties under redevelopment or acquired during 2023 and/or 2024	301
Properties fully operational during 2023 and 2024 and other	(409)
Total	$	(649)

The net decrease of $0.4 million in real estate taxes for properties that were fully operational during 2023 and 2024 is primarily due to higher capitalized real estate tax expenses related to signed anchor leases at certain properties in the portfolio in 2024. The majority of real estate tax expense is recoverable from tenants and such recovery is reflected within “Rental income” in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

General, administrative and other expenses decreased $0.6 million, or 4.5%, primarily due to a decrease in payroll costs due to lower head count.

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased $7.7 million, or 7.1%, due to the following (in thousands):


	Net change Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 to 2024
Properties or components of properties sold during 2023 and/or 2024	$	(2,510)
Properties under redevelopment or acquired during 2023 and/or 2024	1,722
Properties fully operational during 2023 and 2024 and other	(6,904)
Total	$	(7,692)

The net decrease of $6.9 million in depreciation and amortization at properties that were fully operational during 2023 and 2024 is primarily due to the timing of placing assets in service and writing-off tenant-related assets as a result of tenant move-outs along with certain assets with shorter useful lives acquired in the October 2021 merger with RPAI that became fully depreciated during the prior year.

Interest expense increased $4.9 million, or 19.4%, primarily due to interest on the January 2024 public offering of $350.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.50% senior unsecured notes due 2034 (“Notes Due 2034”), partially offset by favorable interest rate swaps.

The $2.3 million gain on sale of unconsolidated property represents our share of the gain on the sale of Glendale Center Apartments during the three months ended March 31, 2024. No such gain was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Other income, net increased $3.2 million primarily due to interest income earned on the proceeds from the Notes Due 2034.

Net Operating Income and Same Property Net Operating Income

We use property net operating income (“NOI”), a non-GAAP financial measure, to evaluate the performance of our properties. We define NOI as income from our real estate, including lease termination fees received from tenants, less our property operating expenses. NOI excludes amortization of capitalized tenant improvement costs and leasing commissions and certain corporate level expenses, including merger and acquisition costs. We believe that NOI is helpful to investors as a measure of our operating performance because it excludes various items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of our operating performance, such as depreciation and amortization, interest expense, and impairment, if any.

We also use same property NOI (“Same Property NOI”), a non-GAAP financial measure, to evaluate the performance of our properties. Same Property NOI is net income excluding properties that have not been owned for the full periods presented. Same Property NOI also excludes (i) net gains from outlot sales, (ii) straight-line rent revenue, (iii) lease termination income in excess of lost rent, (iv) amortization of lease intangibles, and (v) significant prior period expense recoveries and adjustments, if any. When we receive payments in excess of any accounts receivable for terminating a lease, Same Property NOI will include such excess payments as monthly rent until the earlier of the expiration of 12 months or the start date of a replacement tenant. We believe that Same Property NOI is helpful to investors as a measure of our operating performance because it includes only the NOI of properties that have been owned for the full periods presented. We believe such presentation eliminates disparities in net income due to the acquisition or disposition of properties during the particular periods presented, and thus provides a more consistent metric for the comparison of our properties. Same Property NOI includes the results of properties that have been owned for the entire current and prior year reporting periods.

NOI and Same Property NOI should not, however, be considered as alternatives to net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP) as indicators of our financial performance. Our computation of NOI and Same Property NOI may differ from the methodology used by other REITs and, therefore, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

When evaluating the properties that are included in the same property pool, we have established specific criteria for determining the inclusion of properties acquired or those recently under development. An acquired property is included in the same property pool when there is a full quarter of operations in both years subsequent to the acquisition date. Development and redevelopment properties are included in the same property pool four full quarters after the properties have been transferred to the operating portfolio. A redevelopment property is first excluded from the same property pool when the execution of a redevelopment plan is likely and we (a) begin recapturing space from tenants or (b) the contemplated plan significantly impacts the operations of the property.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the same property pool excludes the following:

•properties acquired or placed in service during 2023 and 2024;

•The Landing at Tradition – Phase II, which was reclassified from active redevelopment into our operating portfolio in June 2023;

•our active development and redevelopment projects at Carillon medical office building and The Corner – IN;

•Hamilton Crossing Centre and Edwards Multiplex – Ontario, which were reclassified from our operating portfolio into redevelopment in June 2014 and March 2023, respectively;

•properties sold or classified as held for sale during 2023 and 2024; and

•office properties.

The following table presents Same Property NOI and a reconciliation to net income attributable to common shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (dollars in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2024	2023	Change

Gain on sale of unconsolidated property, net	2,325		—
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests	(280)		(170)
Net income attributable to common shareholders	$	14,156	$	5,391

(1)Same Property NOI excludes the following: (i) properties acquired or placed in service during 2023 and 2024; (ii) The Landing at Tradition – Phase II, which was reclassified from active redevelopment into our operating portfolio in June 2023; (iii) our active development and redevelopment projects at Carillon medical office building and The Corner – IN; (iv) Hamilton Crossing Centre and Edwards Multiplex – Ontario, which were reclassified from our operating portfolio into redevelopment in June 2014 and March 2023, respectively; (v) properties sold or classified as held for sale during 2023 and 2024; and (vi) office properties.

(2)Decrease in leased and economic occupancy percentages is primarily attributable to the Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. bankruptcy.

(3)Excludes leases that are signed but for which tenants have not yet commenced the payment of cash rent; calculated as a weighted average based on the timing of cash rent commencement and expiration during the period.

(4)Includes non-cash activity across the portfolio as well as NOI from properties not included in the same property pool, including properties sold during both periods.

Our Same Property NOI increased 1.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to the same period of the prior year primarily due to contractual rent growth and lower bad debt expense.

Funds From Operations

Funds From Operations (“FFO”) is a widely used performance measure for real estate companies and is provided here as a supplemental measure of our operating performance. We calculate FFO, a non-GAAP financial measure, in accordance with the best practices described in the April 2002 National Policy Bulletin of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), as restated in 2018. The NAREIT white paper defines FFO as net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP), excluding (i) depreciation and amortization related to real estate, (ii) gains and losses from the sale of certain real estate assets, (iii) gains and losses from change in control, and (iv) impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity.

Considering the nature of our business as a real estate owner and operator, the Company believes that FFO is helpful to investors in measuring our operational performance because it excludes various items included in net income that do not relate

to or are not indicative of our operating performance, such as gains or losses from sales of depreciated property and depreciation and amortization, which can make periodic and peer analyses of operating performance more difficult. FFO (a) should not be considered as an alternative to net income (calculated in accordance with GAAP) for the purpose of measuring our financial performance, (b) is not an alternative to cash flows from operating activities (calculated in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our liquidity, and (c) is not indicative of funds available to satisfy our cash needs, including our ability to make distributions. Our computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do.

From time to time, the Company may report or provide guidance with respect to “FFO, as adjusted,” which removes the impact of certain non-recurring and non-operating transactions or other items the Company does not consider to be representative of its core operating results including, without limitation, (i) gains or losses associated with the early extinguishment of debt, (ii) gains or losses associated with litigation involving the Company that is not in the normal course of business, (iii) merger and acquisition costs, (iv) the impact on earnings from employee severance, (v) the excess of redemption value over carrying value of preferred stock redemption, and (vi) the impact of prior period bad debt or the collection of accounts receivable previously written off (“prior period collection impact”) due to the recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, which are not otherwise adjusted in the Company’s calculation of FFO.

Our calculations of FFO and reconciliation to net income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 (unaudited) are as follows (dollars in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2024		2023
Net income	$	14,436	$	5,561
Less: net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in properties	(67)		(104)
Add: loss on sales of operating properties, net	236		—
Less: gain on sale of unconsolidated property, net	(2,325)		—

Add: depreciation and amortization of consolidated and unconsolidated entities, net of noncontrolling interests	100,560		108,309
FFO of the Operating Partnership(1)	112,840		113,766
Less: Limited Partners’ interests in FFO	(1,822)		(1,507)
FFO attributable to common shareholders(1)	$	111,018	$	112,259
FFO per share of the Operating Partnership – diluted	$	0.50	$	0.51

(1)“FFO of the Operating Partnership” measures 100% of the operating performance of the Operating Partnership’s real estate properties. “FFO attributable to common shareholders” reflects a reduction for the redeemable noncontrolling weighted average diluted interest in the Operating Partnership.

Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”)

We define EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, as net income before interest expense, income tax expense of the taxable REIT subsidiaries, and depreciation and amortization. For informational purposes, we also provide Adjusted EBITDA, which we define as EBITDA less (i) EBITDA from unconsolidated entities, as adjusted, (ii) gains on sales of operating properties or impairment charges, (iii) merger and acquisition costs, (iv) other income and expense, (v) noncontrolling interest Adjusted EBITDA, and (vi) other non-recurring activity or items impacting comparability from period to period. Annualized Adjusted EBITDA is Adjusted EBITDA for the most recent quarter multiplied by four. Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA is our share of net debt divided by Annualized Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Annualized Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA, as calculated by us, are not comparable to EBITDA and EBITDA-related measures reported by other REITs that do not define EBITDA and EBITDA-related measures exactly as we do. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Annualized Adjusted EBITDA do not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered alternatives to net income as an indicator of performance or as alternatives to cash flows from operating activities as an indicator of liquidity.

Considering the nature of our business as a real estate owner and operator, we believe that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and the ratio of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA are helpful to investors in measuring our operational performance because they exclude various items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of our operating performance, such as gains or losses from sales of depreciated property and depreciation and amortization, which can make periodic and peer analyses of operating performance more difficult. For informational purposes, we also provide Annualized Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted as described above. We believe this supplemental information provides a meaningful measure of our operating

performance. We believe presenting EBITDA and the related measures in this manner allows investors and other interested parties to form a more meaningful assessment of our operating results.

The following table presents a reconciliation of our EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Annualized Adjusted EBITDA to net income (the most directly comparable GAAP measure) and a calculation of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31, 2024
Net income	$	14,436

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our primary finance and capital strategy is to maintain a strong balance sheet with sufficient flexibility to fund our operating and investment activities in a cost-effective manner. We consider a number of factors when evaluating our level of indebtedness and making decisions regarding additional borrowings or equity offerings, including the interest or dividend rate, the maturity date and the Company’s debt maturity ladder, the impact of financial metrics such as overall Company leverage levels and coverage ratios, and the Company’s ability to generate cash flow to cover debt service. We continuously monitor the capital markets and may consider raising additional capital through the issuance of our common or preferred shares, unsecured debt securities, or other securities.

As of March 31, 2024, we had approximately $83.6 million in cash and cash equivalents on hand, $5.4 million in restricted cash and escrow deposits, $265.0 million of short-term deposits, and $1.1 billion of remaining availability under the Revolving Facility compared to $269.6 million of debt maturing in the second through fourth quarters of 2024. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we completed a public offering of the Notes Due 2034, the proceeds of which are currently invested in short-term deposits that will be used to satisfy all 2024 debt maturities. We believe we will have adequate liquidity over the next 12 months and beyond to operate our business and meet our cash requirements.

We derive the majority of our revenue from tenants who lease space from us under existing lease agreements at each of our properties. Therefore, our ability to generate cash from operations is dependent upon the rents that we are able to charge and

collect from our tenants. While we believe that the nature of the properties in which we typically invest—primarily neighborhood and community shopping centers—provides a relatively stable revenue flow, an economic downturn, instability in the banking sector, tenant bankruptcies, inflation, labor shortages, supply chain constraints, and/or increasing energy prices and interest rates, among other events, could adversely affect the ability of some of our tenants to meet their lease obligations.

Our Principal Capital Resources

For a discussion of cash generated from operations, see “Cash Flows” beginning on page 37. In addition to cash generated from operations, our other principal capital resources are discussed below.

Over the last several years, we have made substantial progress in enhancing our liquidity position and reducing our leverage and borrowing costs. We continue to focus on a balanced approach to growth and staggering debt maturities in order to retain our financial flexibility.

As of March 31, 2024, we had approximately $1.1 billion available under the Revolving Facility for future borrowings. We also had $348.6 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term deposits as of March 31, 2024.

We were in compliance with all applicable financial covenants under the Revolving Facility, unsecured term loans and senior unsecured notes as of March 31, 2024.

In November 2021, the Company filed with the SEC a shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which is effective for a term of three years, relating to the offer and sale, from time to time, of an indeterminate amount of equity and debt securities. Equity securities may be offered and sold by the Parent Company, and the net proceeds of any such offerings would be contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for additional General Partner Units. Debt securities may be offered and sold by the Operating Partnership with the Operating Partnership receiving the proceeds. From time to time, we may issue securities under this shelf registration statement for general corporate purposes, which may include acquisitions of additional properties, repayment of outstanding indebtedness, capital expenditures, the expansion, redevelopment, and/or improvement of properties in our portfolio, working capital and other general purposes.

In February 2021, the Company and the Operating Partnership entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement (the “Equity Distribution Agreement”) with each of BofA Securities, Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. and Raymond James & Associates, Inc., pursuant to which the Company may sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate sales price of $150.0 million of its common shares of beneficial interest, $0.01 par value per share under an at-the-market offering program (the “ATM Program”). In November 2021, the Company and the Operating Partnership amended the Equity Distribution Agreement to reflect their filing of a shelf registration statement on November 16, 2021 with the SEC. The Operating Partnership intends to use the net proceeds, if any, to repay borrowings under the Revolving Facility and other indebtedness and for working capital and other general corporate purposes. The Operating Partnership may also use the net proceeds for acquisitions of operating properties and the development or redevelopment of properties, although there are currently no understandings, commitments or agreements to do so. As of March 31, 2024, the Company has not sold any common shares under the ATM Program.

In the future, we will continue to monitor the capital markets and may consider raising additional capital through the issuance of our common shares, preferred shares or other securities. We may also raise capital by disposing of properties, land parcels or other assets that are no longer core components of our growth strategy. The sale price may differ from our carrying value at the time of sale.

Our Principal Liquidity Needs

Short-Term Liquidity Needs

Near-Term Debt Maturities. As of March 31, 2024, we had no secured debt, excluding scheduled monthly principal payments, and $619.6 million of unsecured debt scheduled to mature prior to March 31, 2025. We believe we have sufficient liquidity to repay these obligations with proceeds from the Notes Due 2034, additional available cash on hand, and borrowings on the Revolving Facility.

Other Short-Term Liquidity Needs. The requirements for qualifying as a REIT and for a tax deduction for some or all of the dividends paid to shareholders necessitate that we distribute at least 90% of our taxable income on an annual basis. Such requirements cause us to have substantial liquidity needs over both the short and long term. Our short-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay operating expenses associated with our operating properties, scheduled interest and

principal payments on our debt of approximately $90.0 million and $3.9 million, respectively, for the remainder of 2024, expected dividend payments to our common shareholders and common unitholders, and recurring capital expenditures.

In February 2024, our Board of Trustees declared a cash distribution of $0.25 per common share and Common Unit for the first quarter of 2024. This distribution was paid on April 12, 2024 to common shareholders and common unitholders of record as of April 5, 2024. Future distributions, if any, are at the discretion of the Board of Trustees, who will continue to evaluate our sources and uses of capital, liquidity position, operating fundamentals, maintenance of our REIT qualification and other factors they may deem relevant. We believe we have sufficient liquidity to pay any dividend from available cash on hand and borrowings on the Revolving Facility.

Other short-term liquidity needs include expenditures for tenant improvements, external leasing commissions and recurring capital expenditures. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we incurred $5.7 million for recurring capital expenditures on operating properties and $18.4 million for tenant improvements and external leasing commissions, which includes costs to re-lease anchor space at our operating properties related to tenants open and operating as of March 31, 2024 (excluding development and redevelopment properties). We currently anticipate incurring approximately $100 million of additional major tenant improvement costs related to leasing activity for space that is currently vacant at a number of our operating properties over the next 12 to 24 months. We believe we have the ability to fund these costs through cash flows from operations or borrowings on the Revolving Facility.

As of March 31, 2024, we had development projects under construction at Carillon medical office building and The Corner – IN. Our share of total estimated costs for these two projects is $91.6 million, of which our share of the expected funding requirement is estimated to be $59.7 million. As of March 31, 2024, we have incurred $31.9 million of these costs. We anticipate incurring the majority of the remaining costs for these projects over the next 12 months and believe we have the ability to fund these projects through cash flows from operations or borrowings on the Revolving Facility.

Share Repurchase Program

The Company has an existing share repurchase program under which it may repurchase, from time to time, up to a maximum of $300.0 million of its common shares (the “Share Repurchase Program”). The Company intends to fund any future repurchases under the Share Repurchase Program with cash on hand or availability under the Revolving Facility, subject to any applicable restrictions. The timing of share repurchases and the number of common shares to be repurchased under the Share Repurchase Program will depend upon prevailing market conditions, regulatory requirements, and other factors. In February 2024, the Company extended the Share Repurchase Program for an additional year to February 28, 2025, if not terminated or extended prior to that date. As of March 31, 2024, the Company has not repurchased any shares under the Share Repurchase Program.

Long-Term Liquidity Needs

Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for any new development projects, redevelopment of existing properties, non-recurring capital expenditures, acquisitions of properties, payment of indebtedness at maturity and obligations under ground leases.

Selective Acquisitions, Developments and Joint Ventures. We may selectively pursue the acquisition, development and redevelopment of other properties, which would require additional capital. It is unlikely that we would have sufficient funds on hand to meet these long-term capital requirements; therefore, we would have to satisfy these needs through additional borrowings, sales of common or preferred shares, issuance of Operating Partnership units, cash generated through property dispositions and/or participation in joint venture arrangements. We cannot be certain that we would have access to these sources of capital on satisfactory terms, if at all, to fund our long-term liquidity requirements. We evaluate all future opportunities against pre-established criteria including, but not limited to, location, demographics, expected return, tenant credit quality, tenant relationships, and the amount of existing retail space. Our ability to access the capital markets will depend on a number of factors, including general capital market conditions.

Potential Debt Repurchases. We may from time to time, depending on market conditions and prices, contractual restrictions, our financial liquidity and other factors, seek to repurchase our senior unsecured notes maturing at various dates through March 2034 in open-market transactions, by tender offer or otherwise, as market conditions warrant.

Commitments under Ground Leases. We are obligated under 12 ground leases for approximately 98 acres of land as of March 31, 2024. Most of these ground leases require fixed annual rent payments and the expiration dates of the remaining

initial terms of these ground leases range from 2025 to 2092. Assuming we exercise all available options to extend the terms of our ground leases, our ground leases will expire between 2043 and 2115.

Capital Expenditures on Consolidated Properties

The following table summarizes cash capital expenditures for our development and redevelopment projects and other capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2024 (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31, 2024
Active development and redevelopment projects	$	3,712



Recurring operating capital expenditures (primarily tenant improvements) and other	24,488
Total	$	28,200

We capitalize certain indirect costs such as interest, payroll, and other general and administrative costs related to these development activities. If we had experienced a 10% reduction in development and redevelopment activities without a corresponding decrease in indirect project costs, we would have recorded additional expense of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Debt Maturities

The following table summarizes the scheduled maturities and principal amortization of the Company’s indebtedness as of March 31, 2024, presented on a calendar year basis (in thousands):


	Secured Debt
	Scheduled Principal Payments		Term Maturities		Unsecured Debt		Total
2024	$	3,853	$	—	$	269,635	$	273,488
2025	5,248		—		680,000		685,248
2026	4,581		10,600		550,000		565,181
2027	3,120		—		250,000		253,120
2028	3,757		—		100,000		103,757
Thereafter	28,091		92,788		1,150,000		1,270,879
	$	48,650	$	103,388	$	2,999,635	$	3,151,673
Debt discounts, premiums and issuance costs, net							15,840
Total							$	3,167,513

Failure to comply with the obligations under our debt agreements, including payment obligations, could cause an event of default under such debt, which, among other things, could result in the loss of title to the assets securing the debt, acceleration of the payment of all principal and interest and/or termination of the agreements, or exposure to the risk of foreclosure. In addition, certain of our variable rate loans contain cross-default provisions whereby a violation by the Company of any financial covenant set forth in the Revolving Facility will constitute an “Event of Default” under the loans, which could allow the lenders to accelerate the amounts due under our debt agreements if we fail to satisfy these financial covenants. See Item 1A. “Risk Factors – Risks Related to Our Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 for more information related to the risks associated with our indebtedness.

Impact of Changes in Credit Ratings on Our Liquidity

We have received investment grade corporate credit ratings from three nationally recognized credit rating agencies. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we received a credit rating upgrade with a stable outlook from one of the rating agencies and a positive credit rating outlook from another rating agency.

In the future, these ratings could change based upon, among other things, the impact that prevailing economic conditions may have on our results of operations and financial condition. Credit rating reductions by one or more rating agencies could also adversely affect our access to funding sources, the cost and other terms of obtaining funding, as well as our overall financial condition, operating results and cash flow.

Cash Flows

As of March 31, 2024, we had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $89.0 million. We may be subject to concentrations of credit risk with regard to our cash and cash equivalents. We place our cash and short-term investments with highly rated financial institutions. While we attempt to limit our exposure at any point in time, occasionally such cash and investments may temporarily exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (“SIPC”) insurance limits. We also maintain certain compensating balances in several financial institutions in support of borrowings from those institutions. Such compensating balances were not material to the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023

Our cash flow activities are summarized as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2024		2023		Change
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	53,581	$	63,603	$	(10,022)
Net cash used in investing activities	(289,338)		(41,514)		(247,824)
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities	283,291		(91,364)		374,655
Increase (decrease) in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	47,534		(69,275)		116,809
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, at beginning of period	41,430		121,970
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, at end of period	$	88,964	$	52,695

Cash provided by operating activities was $53.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and $63.6 million for the same period of 2023. The cash flows were negatively impacted due to the timing of annual insurance premium payments, partially offset by an increase in net operating income.

Cash used in investing activities was $289.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and $41.5 million for the same period of 2023. Highlights of significant cash sources and uses in investing activities are as follows:

•We invested $265.0 million of proceeds from the Notes Due 2034 in short-term certificates of deposit during the three months ended March 31, 2024;

•Capital expenditures decreased by $10.9 million primarily related to the timing of capital projects along with a change in construction payables of $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024;

•We received net proceeds of $1.8 million from the sale of land at Broadstone Station during the three months ended March 31, 2024. We did not sell any land during the three months ended March 31, 2023; and

•We received a $1.6 million distribution upon the joint venture’s disposition of Glendale Center Apartments, of which we own an 11.5% interest, to a third party during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Cash provided by financing activities was $283.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to cash used in financing activities of $91.4 million for the same period of 2023. Highlights of significant cash sources and uses in financing activities are as follows:

•We received $345.3 million of proceeds from the Notes Due 2034 and borrowed $40.0 million on the Revolving Facility during the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to borrowings of $162.0 million on the Revolving Facility during the three months ended March 31, 2023;

•We repaid $40.0 million of borrowings on the Revolving Facility and $1.3 million of mortgages payable during the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to repayments of $37.0 million of borrowings on the Revolving Facility and $162.3 million of mortgages payable during the three months ended March 31, 2023; and

•We made distributions to common shareholders and holders of common partnership interests in the Operating Partnership of $55.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to distributions of $53.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Critical Accounting Estimates

We based the discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. There were no changes made by management to the critical accounting policies in the three months ended March 31, 2024. We discuss the most critical estimates in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on February 20, 2024.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market Risk Related to Fixed and Variable Rate Debt

As of March 31, 2024, we had $3.2 billion of outstanding consolidated indebtedness (inclusive of net unamortized debt discounts, premiums and issuance costs of $15.8 million). In addition, we were party to various consolidated interest rate hedge agreements totaling $975.0 million with maturities over various terms through 2026. Reflecting the effects of these hedge agreements, our fixed and variable rate debt would have been $3.0 billion (95%) and $171.4 million (5%), respectively, of our total consolidated indebtedness as of March 31, 2024.

As of March 31, 2024, we had $619.6 million of fixed rate debt scheduled to mature within the next 12 months. A 100-basis point change in interest rates on this debt as of March 31, 2024 would change our annual cash flow by $6.2 million. A 100-basis point change in interest rates on our unhedged variable rate debt as of March 31, 2024 would change our annual cash flow by $1.7 million. Based upon the terms of our variable rate debt, we are most vulnerable to a change in short-term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) interest rates.

These shares were repurchased by the Company.

The following table summarizes all of these repurchases during the three months ended March 31, 2024:


Period	Total number of shares purchased	Average price paid per share		Total number of shares purchased as part of publicly announced plans or programs	Maximum number of shares that may yet be purchased under the plans or programs(1)

Stockholders' Equity Note [Abstract]
SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY	SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY Distributions Our Board of Trustees declared a cash distribution of $0.25 per common share and Common Unit for the first quarter of 2024. This distribution was paid on April 12, 2024 to common shareholders and common unitholders of record as of April 5, 2024. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we declared a cash distribution of $0.24 per common share and Common Unit. At-The-Market Offering Program In February 2021, the Company and the Operating Partnership entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement (the “Equity Distribution Agreement”) with each of BofA Securities, Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. and Raymond James & Associates, Inc., pursuant to which the Company may sell, from time to time, up to an aggregate sales price of $150.0 million of its common shares of beneficial interest, $0.01 par value per share, under an at-the-market offering program (the “ATM Program”). In November 2021, the Company and the Operating Partnership amended the Equity Distribution Agreement to reflect their filing of a shelf registration statement on November 16, 2021 with the SEC. The Operating Partnership intends to use the net proceeds, if any, to repay borrowings under its Revolving Facility and other indebtedness and for working capital and other general corporate purposes. The Operating Partnership may also use the net proceeds for acquisitions of operating properties and the development or redevelopment of properties, although there are currently no understandings, commitments or agreements to do so. As of March 31, 2024, the Company has not sold any common shares under the ATM Program. Share Repurchase Program The Company has an existing share repurchase program under which it may repurchase, from time to time, up to a maximum of $300.0 million of its common shares (the “Share Repurchase Program”). The Company intends to fund any future repurchases under the Share Repurchase Program with cash on hand or availability under the Revolving Facility, subject to any applicable restrictions. The timing of share repurchases and the number of common shares to be repurchased under the Share Repurchase Program will depend upon prevailing market conditions, regulatory requirements and other factors. In February 2024, the Company extended the Share Repurchase Program for an additional year to February 28, 2025, if not terminated or extended prior to that date. As of March 31, 2024, the Company has not repurchased any shares under the Share Repurchase Program.

EARNINGS PER SHARE OR UNIT	3 Months Ended
EARNINGS PER SHARE OR UNIT	Mar. 31, 2024
Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
EARNINGS PER SHARE OR UNIT	EARNINGS PER SHARE OR UNIT Basic earnings per share or unit is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares/units outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share/unit is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares/units outstanding during the period combined with the incremental average common shares/units that would have been outstanding assuming the conversion of all potentially dilutive common shares/units into common shares/units as of the earliest date possible. Potentially dilutive securities include (i) outstanding options to acquire common shares; (ii) Limited Partner Units, which may be exchanged for either cash or common shares at the Parent Company’s option and under certain circumstances; (iii) AO LTIP Units; and (iv) deferred common share units, which may be credited to the personal accounts of non-employee trustees in lieu of compensation paid in cash or the issuance of common shares to such trustees. Limited Partner Units have been omitted from the Parent Company’s denominator for the purpose of computing diluted earnings per share since the effect of including those amounts in the denominator would have no dilutive impact. Weighted average Limited Partner Units outstanding were 3.6 million and 3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Other Commitments and Contingencies We are obligated under various completion guarantees with certain lenders and lease agreements with tenants to complete all or portions of a development project and tenant-specific space currently under construction. We believe we currently have sufficient financing in place to fund these projects and expect to do so primarily through free cash flow or borrowings on the Revolving Facility. In 2017, we provided a repayment guaranty on a $33.8 million construction loan associated with the development of the Embassy Suites at the University of Notre Dame, consistent with our 35% ownership interest. Our portion of the repayment guaranty is limited to $5.9 million, and the guaranty’s term is through July 1, 2024, the maturity date of the construction loan. As of March 31, 2024, the outstanding loan balance was $32.5 million, of which our share was $11.4 million. The loan is secured by the hotel. In 2021, we provided repayment and completion guaranties on loans totaling $66.2 million associated with the development of The Corner mixed-use project in the Indianapolis MSA. As of March 31, 2024, the outstanding balance of the loans was $65.6 million, of which our share was $32.8 million. Legal Proceedings We are not subject to any material litigation nor, to management’s knowledge, is any material litigation currently threatened against us. We are parties to routine litigation, claims, and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management believes that such matters will not have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows taken as a whole.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)	Mar. 31, 2024
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Consolidation and Investments in Joint Ventures	Consolidation and Investments in Joint Ventures The accompanying financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis and include all accounts of the Parent Company, the Operating Partnership, the taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”) of the Operating Partnership, subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership that are controlled and any variable interest entities (“VIEs”) in which the Operating Partnership is the primary beneficiary. As of March 31, 2024, we owned investments in two consolidated joint ventures that were VIEs in which the partners did not have substantive participating rights and we were the primary beneficiary. As of March 31, 2024, these consolidated VIEs had mortgage debt totaling $111.5 million, which was secured by assets of the VIEs totaling $218.1 million. The Operating Partnership guarantees the mortgage debt of these VIEs. The Operating Partnership is considered a VIE as the limited partners do not hold kick-out rights or substantive participating rights. The Parent Company consolidates the Operating Partnership as it is the primary beneficiary. As of March 31, 2024, the Company also owned investments in four unconsolidated joint ventures accounted for under the equity method, which are not considered VIEs. On January 31, 2024, the joint venture that owned Glendale Center Apartments, of which we have an 11.5% ownership interest, sold the 267-unit property to a third party, resulting in a gain on sale of $20.2 million. The Company recognized its share of the gain on sale of unconsolidated property of $2.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024. In addition, the Company received a $1.6 million distribution upon the disposition of the property. The Company maintains an investment in the joint venture, which is in the process of winding up its activities and distributing remaining net assets. Glendale Center Apartments is adjacent to our Glendale Town Center operating retail property in the Indianapolis MSA.
Income Taxes and REIT Compliance	Income Taxes and REIT Compliance Parent Company The Parent Company has been organized and operated, and intends to continue to operate, in a manner that will enable it to maintain its qualification as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a result, it generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the earnings that it distributes to the extent it distributes its “REIT taxable income” (determined before the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains) to shareholders of the Parent Company and meets certain other requirements on a recurring basis. To the extent that it satisfies this distribution requirement but distributes less than 100% of its taxable income, it will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its undistributed REIT taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates. REITs are subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements. If the Parent Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate income tax rates for a period of four years following the year in which qualification is lost. Additionally, we may also be subject to certain taxes enacted by the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 that are applicable to non-REIT corporations, including the nondeductible 1% excise tax on certain stock repurchases. We may also be subject to certain U.S. federal, state and local taxes on our income and property and to U.S. federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed taxable income even if the Parent Company does qualify as a REIT. The Operating Partnership intends to continue to make distributions to the Parent Company in amounts sufficient to assist the Parent Company in adhering to REIT requirements and maintaining its REIT status. We have elected to treat Kite Realty Holdings, LLC and IWR Protective Corporation as TRSs with respect to the REIT, and we may elect to treat other subsidiaries as TRSs in the future. This election enables us to receive income and provide services that would otherwise be impermissible for a REIT. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting bases and the tax bases of assets and liabilities at the tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Operating Partnership The allocated share of income and loss, other than the operations of our TRSs, is included in the income tax returns of the Operating Partnership’s partners. Accordingly, the only U.S. federal income taxes included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements are in connection with the TRSs.
Noncontrolling Interests	Noncontrolling Interests We report the non-redeemable noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries as equity, and the amount of consolidated net income attributable to these noncontrolling interests is set forth separately in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Noncontrolling Interests – Joint Venture Prior to the October 2021 merger with Retail Properties of America, Inc. (“RPAI”), RPAI entered into a joint venture related to the development, ownership and operation of the multifamily rental portion of the expansion project at One Loudoun Downtown – Pads G & H. The Company owns 90% of the joint venture. Under terms defined in the joint venture agreement, after construction completion and stabilization of the development project (as defined in the joint venture agreement), the Company has the ability to call, and the joint venture partner has the ability to put to the Company, subject to certain conditions, the joint venture partner’s interest in the joint venture at fair value. As of March 31, 2024, these conditions for exercising the put and call options have been met but neither the Company nor the joint venture partner has exercised their respective options. The joint venture is considered a VIE primarily because the Company’s joint venture partner does not have substantive kick-out rights or substantive participating rights. The Company is considered the primary beneficiary as it has a controlling financial interest in the joint venture. As such, the Company has consolidated this joint venture and presented the joint venture partner’s interests as noncontrolling interests. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests – Limited Partners Limited Partner Units are redeemable noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership. We classify redeemable noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets outside of permanent equity because we may be required to pay cash to holders of Limited Partner Units upon redemption of their interests in the Operating Partnership or deliver registered shares upon their conversion. The carrying amount of the redeemable noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership is reflected at the greater of historical book value or redemption value with a corresponding adjustment to additional paid-in capital. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the redemption value of the redeemable noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership exceeded the historical book value, and the balances were accordingly adjusted to redemption value. We allocate net operating results of the Operating Partnership after noncontrolling interests in the consolidated properties based on the partners’ respective weighted average ownership interest. We adjust the redeemable noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership at the end of each reporting period to reflect their interests in the Operating Partnership or redemption value. This adjustment is reflected in our shareholders’ and Parent Company’s equity. As of March 31, 2024, the Parent Company’s interest and the limited partners’ redeemable noncontrolling ownership interests in the Operating Partnership were 98.3% and 1.7%. As of December 31, 2023, the Parent Company’s interest and the limited partners’ redeemable noncontrolling ownership interests in the Operating Partnership were 98.4% and 1.6%. Concurrent with the Parent Company’s IPO and related formation transactions, certain individuals received Limited Partner Units of the Operating Partnership in exchange for their interests in certain properties. The limited partners have the right to redeem Limited Partner Units for cash or, at the Parent Company’s election, common shares of the Parent Company in an amount equal to the market value of an equivalent number of common shares of the Parent Company at the time of redemption. Such common shares must be registered, which is not fully in the Parent Company’s control. Therefore, the limited partners’ interest is not reflected within permanent equity. The Parent Company also has the right to redeem the Limited Partner Units directly from the limited partner in exchange for either cash in the amount specified above or a number of its common shares equal to the number of Limited Partner Units being redeemed. There were 3,707,004 and 3,512,868 Limited Partner Units outstanding as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The increase in Limited Partner Units outstanding from December 31, 2023 is due to non-cash compensation awards granted to our executive officers in the form of Limited Partner Units.
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements We follow the framework established under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, for measuring fair value of non-financial assets and liabilities that are not required or permitted to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis but only in certain circumstances, such as a business combination or upon determination of an impairment. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets are categorized based on the inputs to the valuation techniques as follows: •Level 1 fair value inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments to which we have access. •Level 2 fair value inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for similar instruments, either directly or indirectly, and appropriately consider counterparty creditworthiness in the valuation. •Level 3 fair value inputs reflect our best estimate of inputs and assumptions market participants would use in pricing an instrument at the measurement date. The inputs are unobservable in the market and significant to the valuation estimate. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based upon inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
Effects of Accounting Pronouncements	Effects of Accounting Pronouncements In March 2024, the SEC issued a final rule, The Enhancement and Standardization of Climate-Related Disclosures for Investors. This final rule is effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning in 2025 and requires companies to annually disclose, among other things, (i) climate-related risks that have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on the Company, including on its strategy, results of operations, or financial condition, (ii) activities to mitigate or adapt to such risks, including a quantitative and qualitative description of material expenditures incurred and impacts on estimates and assumptions, (iii) information about oversight by a company’s board of directors of climate-related risks and management’s role in managing material climate-related risks; and (iv) information on any climate-related targets or goals that are material to the company’s business, results of operations, or financial condition. In addition, the final rule requires (i) disclosure of Scope 1 and/or Scope 2 greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions on a phased-in basis when those emissions are material, (ii) the filing of an attestation report covering the disclosure of the Scope 1 and/or Scope 2 emissions on a phased-in basis, and (iii) disclosure of the financial statement effects of severe weather events and other natural conditions. In April 2024, the SEC announced a stay of these climate disclosure rules pending judicial review. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact of this final rule until it becomes effective.
