Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Debt Disclosure [Text Block] | 9. Notes and Mortgages Payable In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. Beginning in its fiscal year 2015, the Company elected to early adopt ASU 2015-03 and appropriately retrospectively applied the guidance to its Notes Payable and Mortgages Payable to all periods presented. Unamortized debt issuance costs of $25.9 million and $3.1 million are included in Notes Payable and Mortgages Payable, respectively, as of September 30, 2015, and $20.4 million and $3.9 million of unamortized debt issuance costs are included in Notes Payable and Mortgages Payable, respectively, as of December 31, 2014 (previously included in Other assets on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets). Notes Payable - During January 2015, the Company entered into a new $650.0 million unsecured term loan (“Term Loan”) which is scheduled to mature in January 2017 (with three one-year extension options at the Company’s discretion) and accrues interest at a spread (currently 95 basis points) to LIBOR or at the Company’s option at a base rate as defined per the agreement (1.15% at September 30, 2015). The proceeds from the Term Loan were used to repay the Company’s $400.0 million term loan, which was scheduled to mature in April 2015 (with two additional one-year extension options) and bore interest at LIBOR plus 105 basis points, and for general corporate purposes. Pursuant to the terms of the credit agreement for the Term Loan, the Company, among other things, is subject to covenants requiring the maintenance of (i) maximum indebtedness ratios and (ii) minimum interest and fixed charge coverage ratios. The Company was in compliance with all of the covenants as of September 30, 2015. During March 2015, the Company issued $350.0 million of 30-year Senior Unsecured Notes at an interest rate of 4.25% payable semi-annually in arrears which are scheduled to mature in April 2045. The Company used the net proceeds from the issuance of $342.7 million, after the underwriting discount and related offering costs, for general corporate purposes including to pre-fund near-term debt maturities and partially reduce borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility. During October 2015, the Company issued $500.0 million of seven-year Senior Unsecured Notes at an interest rate of 3.400% payable semi-annually in arrears which are scheduled to mature in November 2022. Additionally, during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company repaid (i) its $100.0 million 4.904% medium term notes, which matured in February 2015 and (ii) its $100.0 million 5.250% senior unsecured notes, which matured in September 2015. Mortgages Payable - During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company (i) assumed $710.2 million of individual non-recourse mortgage debt relating to the acquisition of 35 operating properties, including an increase of $22.1 million associated with fair value debt adjustments and (ii) paid off $444.9 million of mortgage debt (including fair market value adjustment of $0.8 million) that encumbered 19 operating properties.
