KIMCO REALTY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Interim Financial Statements

Business -

Kimco Realty Corporation and subsidiaries (the "Company"), affiliates and related real estate joint ventures are engaged principally in the ownership, management, development and operation of open-air shopping centers, which are anchored generally by discount department stores, grocery stores or drugstores. Additionally, the Company provides complementary services that capitalize on the Company’s established retail real estate expertise.

The Company elected status as a Real Estate Investment Trust (a “REIT”) for federal income tax purposes beginning in its taxable year ended December 31, 1991 and operates in a manner that enables the Company to maintain its status as a REIT. As a REIT, with respect to each taxable year, the Company must distribute at least 90 percent of its taxable income (excluding capital gain) and does not pay federal income taxes on the amount distributed to its shareholders. The Company is not generally subject to federal income taxes if it distributes 100 percent of its taxable income. Most states, where the Company holds investments in real estate, conform to the federal rules recognizing REITs. Certain subsidiaries have made a joint election with the Company to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”), which permit the Company to engage in certain business activities which the REIT may not conduct directly. A TRS is subject to federal and state income taxes on its income, and the Company includes, when applicable, a provision for taxes in its condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company is subject to and also includes in its tax provision non-U.S. income taxes on certain investments located in jurisdictions outside the U.S. These investments are held by the Company at the REIT level and not in the Company’s taxable REIT subsidiaries. Accordingly, the Company does not expect a U.S. income tax impact associated with the repatriation of undistributed earnings from the Company’s foreign subsidiaries.

Principles of Consolidation -

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company. The Company’s subsidiaries include subsidiaries which are wholly-owned and all entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest, including where the Company has been determined to be a primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) in accordance with the Consolidation guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The information presented in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements is unaudited and reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to reflect a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 (the “10-K”), as certain disclosures in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2017, that would duplicate those included in the 10-K are not included in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Subsequent Events -

The Company has evaluated subsequent events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure in the condensed consolidated financial statements (see Footnote 9).

Earnings Per Share -

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of earnings and the weighted average number of shares used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share (amounts presented in thousands except per share data):

|  | Three Months Ended |  |  | Nine Months Ended |

Effect of dilutive securities (a): |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Equity awards |  |  | 513 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 556 |  |  |  | 1,405 |
Assumed conversion of convertible units |  |  | 110 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 63 |  |  |  | - |
Weighted average common shares outstanding – diluted |  |  | 424,311 |  |  |  | 420,073 |  |  |  | 424,193 |  |  |  | 418,234 |
Net income/(loss) available to the Company's common shareholders: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Basic earnings/(loss) per share |  |  | 0.24 |  |  |  | (0.13 | ) |  |  | 0.70 |  |  |  | 0.63 |
Diluted earnings/(loss) per share |  |  | 0.24 |  |  |  | (0.13 | ) |  |  | 0.70 |  |  |  | 0.63 |

(a) | The effect of the assumed conversion of certain convertible units had an anti-dilutive effect upon the calculation of Income from continuing operations per share. Accordingly, the impact of such conversions has not been included in the determination of diluted earnings/(loss) per share calculations. Additionally, there were 2,314,908 and 3,545,000 stock options that were not dilutive as of September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

The Company's unvested restricted share awards contain non-forfeitable rights to distributions or distribution equivalents. The impact of the unvested restricted share awards on earnings per share has been calculated using the two-class method whereby earnings are allocated to the unvested restricted share awards based on dividends declared and the unvested restricted shares' participation rights in undistributed earnings.

New Accounting Pronouncements –

The following table represents Accounting Standard Updates (“ASU”) to the FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) that are not yet effective for the Company and for which the Company has not elected early adoption, where permitted:

ASU | Description | Effective Date | Effect on the financial statements or other significant matters
ASU 2017-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting | The amendment provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. Under the new guidance, modification accounting is required only if the fair value, the vesting conditions, or the classification of the award (as equity or liability) changes as a result of the change in terms or conditions. The new guidance will be applied prospectively to awards modified on or after the adoption date. | January 1, 2018; Early adoption permitted | The adoption is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and/or results of operations.
ASU 2017-05, Other Income – Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (“Subtopic 610-20”): Clarifying the Scope of Asset Derecognition Guidance and Accounting for Partial Sales of Nonfinancial Assets | The amendment clarifies that a financial asset is within the scope of Subtopic 610-20 if it meets the definition of an in substance nonfinancial asset and defines the term in substance nonfinancial asset. ASU 2017-05 also clarifies that nonfinancial assets within the scope of Subtopic 610-20 may include nonfinancial assets transferred within a legal entity to a counterparty. Subtopic 610-20, which was issued in May 2014 as part of ASU 2014-09, discussed below, provides guidance for recognizing gains and losses from the transfer of nonfinancial assets in contracts with noncustomers. An entity is required to apply the amendments in ASU 2017-05 at the same time it applies the amendments in ASU 2014-09 discussed below. An entity may elect to apply the amendments in ASU 2017-05 either retrospectively to each period presented in the financial statements in accordance with the guidance on accounting changes in ASC Topic 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, paragraphs 10-45-5 through 10-45-10 (i.e. the retrospective approach) or retrospectively with a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption (i.e. the modified retrospective approach). An entity may elect to apply all of the amendments in ASU 2017-05 and ASU 2014-09 using the same transition method, or alternatively may elect to use different transition methods. | January 1, 2018; Early adoption is permitted if adopted with ASU 2014-09 | The Company will adopt the provisions of Subtopic 610-20 in the first quarter of fiscal 2018, using the modified retrospective approach. Upon adoption, the Company will appropriately apply the guidance to prospective disposals of nonfinancial assets within the scope of Subtopic 610-20.

Table of Contents

ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments | The new guidance introduces a new model for estimating credit losses for certain types of financial instruments, including loans receivable, held-to-maturity debt securities, and net investments in direct financing leases, amongst other financial instruments. ASU 2016-13 also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale debt securities and expands the disclosure requirements regarding an entity’s assumptions, models, and methods for estimating the allowance for losses. | January 1, 2020; Early adoption permitted | The adoption is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and/or results of operations.
ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying performance obligations and licensing ASU 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-scope improvements and practical expedients | ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model requiring a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount reflecting the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In adopting ASU 2014-09, companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach. ASU 2014-09 was anticipated to be effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption was not permitted. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, which delayed the effective date of ASU 2014-09 by one year making it effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Subsequently, in March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, which further clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations, and in April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, an update on identifying performance obligations and accounting for licenses of intellectual property. Additionally, in May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, which includes amendments for enhanced clarification of the guidance. Early adoption is permitted as of the original effective date. | January 1, 2018; Early adoption permitted as of original effective date, which was January 1, 2017 | The Company’s revenue-producing contracts are primarily leases that are not within the scope of this standard, except for the lease component relating to common area maintenance (“CAM”) reimbursement revenue, which will be within the scope of this standard upon the effective date of ASU 2016-02 discussed below. The Company continues to evaluate the effect the adoption will have on the Company’s other sources of revenue which include management and other fee income. However, the Company currently does not believe the adoption will significantly affect the timing of the recognition of the Company’s management and other fee income. The Company plans to adopt this standard using the modified retrospective approach, which requires a cumulative effect adjustment as of the date of adoption.
ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) | This ASU sets out the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both parties to a contract (i.e. lessees and lessors). The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than 12 months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. The new standard requires lessors to account for leases using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance for sales-type leases, direct financing leases and operating leases. ASU 2016-02 supersedes the previous leases standard, Leases (Topic 840). | January 1, 2019; Early adoption permitted | The Company continues to evaluate the effect the adoption will have on the Company’s financial position and/or results of operations. However, the Company currently believes that the adoption will not have a material impact for operating leases where it is a lessor and will continue to record revenues from rental properties for its operating leases on a straight-line basis. However, for leases where the Company is a lessee, primarily for the Company’s ground leases and administrative office leases, the Company will be required to record a lease liability and a right of use asset on its Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value upon adoption. In addition, direct internal leasing costs will continue to be capitalized, however, indirect internal leasing costs previously capitalized will be expensed. Within the terms of the Company’s leases where the Company is the lessor, the Company is entitled to receive reimbursement amounts from tenants for operating expenses such as real estate taxes, insurance and other CAM. CAM reimbursement revenue will be accounted for in accordance with Topic 606 upon adoption of this ASU 2016-02. The Company continues to evaluate the effect the adoption will have on this source of revenue. However, the Company currently does not believe the adoption will significantly affect the timing of the recognition of the Company’s CAM reimbursement revenue.

The following ASU’s to the FASB’s ASC have been adopted by the Company:

ASU | Description | Adoption Date | Effect on the financial statements or other significant matters
ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business | The update clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill, and consolidation. | January 1, 2017; Elected early adoption | The Company’s operating property acquisitions during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, qualified for asset acquisition treatment under ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, rather than business combination treatment under ASC 805 Business Combinations, and resulted in the capitalization of asset acquisition costs rather than directly expensing these costs.
ASU 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting | The update simplifies several aspects of accounting for employee share-based payment transactions for both public and nonpublic entities, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. | January 1, 2017 | The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and/or results of operations.

Dispositions and Assets Held for Sale –

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company disposed of 15 consolidated operating properties and eight parcels, in separate transactions, for an aggregate sales price of $230.2 million. These transactions resulted in (i) an aggregate gain of $62.1 million and (ii) aggregate impairment charges of $13.0 million.

At September 30, 2017, the Company had one property classified as held-for-sale at a carrying amount of $14.9 million, net of accumulated depreciation of $2.9 million, which is included in Other assets on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company’s determination of the fair value of the property was based upon an executed contract of sale with a third party.

Impairments –

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recognized aggregate impairment charges of $34.3 million. These impairment charges consist of (i) $13.0 million related to the sale of certain operating properties, as discussed above, (ii) $5.1 million related to adjustments to property carrying values for properties which the Company has marketed for sale as part of its active capital recycling program and as such has adjusted the anticipated hold periods for such properties and (iii) $16.2 million related to a property for which the Company has re-evaluated its long-term plan for the property due to unfavorable local market conditions. The Company’s estimated fair values of these properties were primarily based upon estimated sales prices from (i) signed contracts or letters of intent from third party offers or (ii) a discounted cash flow model. See Footnote 11 for fair value disclosure.

Hurricane Impact –

The impact of Hurricanes Harvey, which hit Texas on August 25, 2017, and Irma, which hit Florida on September 10, 2017, resulted in minimal damage to the Company’s properties located in Texas and Florida.

With respect to Hurricane Maria, which hit the island of Puerto Rico on September 20, 2017, the Company is currently assessing damages at its seven operating properties located throughout Puerto Rico, aggregating 2.2 million square feet of GLA. Two of these operating properties, located in the southern region of the island were less impacted and most tenants have resumed operations, while the remaining five operating properties in the northern region sustained varying amounts of damage. Initial repairs are in progress, however, a final assessment and recovery plan will require additional time. The Company maintains a comprehensive property insurance policy on these properties with total coverage of up to $62.0 million, as well as business interruption insurance with coverage up to $39.3 million in the aggregate, subject to a collective deductible of $1.2 million. The Company anticipates that all damages and any loss of operations sustained will be covered under these existing policies. As further detailed information becomes available, the Company expects to recognize a charge, which it believes will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and/or results of operations. This charge will result from the write-down of the undepreciated portion of the property that has been permanently damaged, which would be less than the replacement costs and offset by insurance proceeds received by the Company.

3. Real Estate Under Development

The Company is engaged in various real estate development projects for long-term investment. As of September 30, 2017, the Company had in progress a total of five active real estate development projects and two additional projects held for future development.

5. Other Real Estate Investments

Preferred Equity Capital -

The Company previously provided capital to owners and developers of real estate properties through its Preferred Equity Program. The Company’s maximum exposure to losses associated with its preferred equity investments is primarily limited to its net investment. As of September 30, 2017, the Company’s net investment under the Preferred Equity Program was $198.1 million relating to 357 properties, including 345 net leased properties. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recognized income of $27.2 million from its preferred equity investments, including $14.8 million of cumulative foreign currency translation gain recognized as a result of the substantial liquidation of the Company’s investments in Canada during 2017. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company earned $22.3 million from its preferred equity investments, including $10.1 million in profit participation earned from four capital transactions. These amounts are included in Equity in income of other real estate investments, net on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Kimsouth (Albertsons) -

Kimsouth Realty Inc. (“Kimsouth”) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. KRS AB Acquisition, LLC (the “ABS Venture”) is a subsidiary of Kimsouth that has a 14.35% noncontrolling interest (of which the Company’s share is 9.8%), in AB Acquisition, LLC (“AB Acquisition”), a joint venture which owns Albertsons LLC (“Albertsons”), NAI Group Holdings Inc. and Safeway Inc. The Company holds a controlling interest in the ABS Venture and consolidates this entity.

During June 2017, the Company and ABS Venture received an aggregate cash distribution of $34.6 million from Albertsons, of which the Company’s combined share was $23.7 million with the remaining $10.9 million distributed to the two noncontrolling interest members in the ABS Venture. This distribution exceeded the Company’s carrying basis and as such was recognized as income and is included in Equity in income from other real estate investments, net on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

6. Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”)

Included within the Company’s consolidated operating properties at September 30, 2017, are 24 consolidated partnership entities that are VIEs, for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. These entities have been established to own and operate real estate property. The Company’s involvement with these entities is through its majority ownership and management of the properties. The entities were deemed VIEs primarily based on the fact that the unrelated investors do not have substantial kick-out rights to remove the general or managing partner by a vote of a simple majority or less and they do not have participating rights. The Company determined that it was the primary beneficiary of these VIEs as a result of its controlling financial interest. At September 30, 2017, total assets of these VIEs were $1.2 billion and total liabilities were $385.6 million.

The majority of the operations of these VIEs are funded with cash flows generated from the properties. The Company has not provided financial support to any of these VIEs that it was not previously contractually required to provide, which consists primarily of funding any capital expenditures, including tenant improvements, which are deemed necessary to continue to operate the entity and any operating cash shortfalls that the entity may experience.

Table of Contents

Additionally, included within the Company’s real estate development projects at September 30, 2017, are three consolidated partnership entities that are VIEs, for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. These entities have been established to develop real estate properties to hold as long-term investments. The Company’s involvement with these entities is through its majority ownership and management of the properties. These entities were deemed VIEs primarily based on the fact that the equity investments at risk are not sufficient to permit the entities to finance their activities without additional financial support. The initial equity contributed to these entities was not sufficient to fully finance the real estate construction as development costs are funded by the partners throughout the construction period. The Company determined that it was the primary beneficiary of these VIEs as a result of its controlling financial interest. At September 30, 2017, total assets of these real estate development VIEs were $269.3 million and total liabilities were $22.5 million.

Substantially all the projected development costs to be funded for these three real estate development projects, aggregating $129.3 million, will be funded with capital contributions from the Company, when contractually obligated. The Company has not provided financial support to these VIEs that it was not previously contractually required to provide.

All liabilities of these consolidated VIEs are non-recourse to the Company (“VIE Liabilities”). Of the 27 total VIEs, 22 are unencumbered and the assets of these VIEs are not restricted for use to settle only the obligations of these VIEs. The remaining five VIEs are encumbered by third party non-recourse mortgage debt. The assets associated with these encumbered VIEs (“Restricted Assets”) are collateral under the respective mortgages and are therefore restricted and can only be used to settle the corresponding liabilities of the VIE. The classification of the Restricted Assets and VIE Liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets are as follows (in millions):

|  | September 30, 2017 |  |  | December 31, 2016 |
Restricted Assets: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Real estate, net |  | $ | 630.9 |  |  | $ | 326.9 |
Cash and cash equivalents |  |  | 10.5 |  |  |  | 3.8 |
Accounts and notes receivable, net |  |  | 2.8 |  |  |  | 1.6 |
Other assets |  |  | 3.0 |  |  |  | 1.4 |
Total Restricted Assets |  | $ | 647.2 |  |  | $ | 333.7 |
VIE Liabilities: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Mortgages payable, net |  | $ | 341.4 |  |  | $ | 138.6 |
Other liabilities |  |  | 66.7 |  |  |  | 37.6 |
Total VIE Liabilities |  | $ | 408.1 |  |  | $ | 176.2 |

7. Mortgages and Other Financing Receivables

The Company has various mortgages and other financing receivables which consist of loans acquired and loans originated by the Company. The Company reviews payment status to identify performing versus non-performing loans.

9. Notes and Mortgages Payable

Notes Payable -

In February 2017, the Company closed on a $2.25 billion unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with a group of banks, which is scheduled to expire in March 2021, with two additional six month options to extend the maturity date, at the Company’s discretion, to March 2022. This Credit Facility, which accrues interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 87.5 basis points (2.10% as of September 30, 2017), can be increased to $2.75 billion through an accordion feature. The Credit Facility replaced the Company’s $1.75 billion unsecured revolving credit facility that was scheduled to mature in March 2018. In addition, the Credit Facility includes a $500.0 million sub-limit which provides the company the opportunity to borrow in alternative currencies including Canadian Dollars, British Pounds Sterling, Japanese Yen or Euros. Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Facility, the Company, among other things, is subject to covenants requiring the maintenance of (i) maximum leverage ratios on both unsecured and secured debt and (ii) minimum interest and fixed coverage ratios. As of September 30, 2017, the Credit Facility had a balance of $25.0 million outstanding and $0.5 million appropriated for letters of credit.

11. Fair Value Measurements

All financial instruments of the Company are reflected in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at amounts which, in management’s estimation, based upon an interpretation of available market information and valuation methodologies, reasonably approximate their fair values except those listed below, for which fair values are disclosed. The valuation method used to estimate fair value for fixed-rate and variable-rate debt is based on discounted cash flow analyses, with assumptions that include credit spreads, market yield curves, trading activity, loan amounts and debt maturities. The fair values for marketable securities are based on published values, securities dealers’ estimated market values or comparable market sales. Such fair value estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that would be realized upon disposition.

As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the FASB’s Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).

The following are financial instruments for which the Company’s estimate of fair value differs from the carrying amounts (in thousands):

|  | September 30, 2017 |  |  | December 31, 201 6 |
|  | Carrying Amounts |  |  | Estimated Fair Value |  |  | Carrying Amounts |  |  | Estimated Fair Value |

| (1) | The Company determined that the valuation of its Senior Unsecured Notes and MTN notes were classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and its Term Loan and Credit Facility were classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The estimated fair value amounts classified as Level 2 as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, were $4.7 billion and $3.6 billion, respectively. The estimated fair value amounts classified as Level 3 as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, were $18.2 million and $272.5 million, respectively.

| (2) | The Company determined that its valuation of Mortgages payable, net was classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company has certain financial instruments that must be measured under the FASB’s Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures guidance, including available for sale securities. The Company currently does not have non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized impairment charges related to adjustments to property carrying values of $34.3 million and $68.1 million, respectively. The Company’s estimated fair values of these properties were primarily based upon estimated sales prices from (i) signed contracts or letters of intent from third party offers or (ii) a discounted cash flow model. The Company does not have access to the unobservable inputs used to determine the estimated fair values of third party offers. For the discounted cash flow model, a capitalization rate of 8.50% and a discount rate of 10.00% were utilized in the model based upon unobservable rates that the Company believes to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for this respective investment. Based on these inputs, the Company determined that its valuation of these investments was classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. (See Footnote 2 for additional discussion regarding impairment charges).

14. Incentive Plans

The Company accounts for equity awards in accordance with FASB’s Compensation – Stock Compensation guidance which requires that all share based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, restricted stock and performance shares, be recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations over the service period based on their fair values. Fair value is determined, depending on the type of award, using either the Black-Scholes option pricing formula or the Monte Carlo method for performance shares, both of which are intended to estimate the fair value of the awards at the grant date. Fair value of restricted shares is calculated based on the price on the date of grant.

The Company recognized expenses associated with its equity awards of $17.8 million and $15.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. As of September 30, 2017, the Company had $32.8 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock compensation granted under the Plans.

Executive Summary

Kimco Realty Corporation is one of the nation’s largest publicly-traded owners and operators of open-air shopping centers. As of September 30, 2017, the Company had interests in 508 shopping center properties aggregating 84.2 million square feet of gross leasable area (“GLA”) located in 32 states, Puerto Rico and Canada. In addition, the Company had 374 other property interests, primarily through the Company’s preferred equity investments and other real estate investments, totaling 5.9 million square feet of GLA.

The executive officers are engaged in the day-to-day management and operation of real estate exclusively with the Company, with nearly all operating functions, including leasing, asset management, maintenance, construction, legal, finance and accounting, administered by the Company.

The Company’s strategy is to be the premier owner and operator of open-air shopping centers through investments primarily in the U.S. To achieve this strategy the Company is (i) continuing to transform the quality of its portfolio by disposing of lesser quality assets and acquiring larger, higher quality properties in key markets identified by the Company, for which substantial progress has been achieved as of September 30, 2017, (ii) simplifying its business by: (a) reducing the number of joint venture investments and (b) exiting Mexico, South America and Canada, for which the exit of South America has been completed and Mexico and Canada have been substantially completed, (iii) pursuing redevelopment opportunities within its portfolio to increase overall value and (iv) selectively acquiring land parcels in our key markets for real estate development projects for long-term investment. As part of the Company’s strategy each property is evaluated for its highest and best use, which may include residential and mixed-use components. In addition, the Company may consider other opportunistic investments related to retailer controlled real estate such as, repositioning underperforming retail locations, retail real estate financing and bankruptcy transaction support. The Company has an active capital recycling program which provides for the disposition of certain U.S. properties. If the Company accepts sales prices for any of these assets that are less than their net carrying values, the Company would be required to take impairment charges and such amounts could be material. In order to execute the Company’s strategy, the Company intends to continue to strengthen its balance sheet by pursuing deleveraging efforts over time, providing it the necessary flexibility to invest opportunistically and selectively, primarily focusing on U.S. open-air shopping centers.

Rental property expenses increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2016, primarily due to the acquisition/consolidation of operating properties in 2017 and 2016 and an increase in real estate tax expense primarily due to the receipt of real estate tax refunds during 2016, partially offset by the disposition of properties during 2017 and 2016.

(4) | Depreciation and amortization decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the corresponding period in 2016, primarily due to fewer tenant vacates, partially offset by the acquisition/consolidation of operating properties in 2017 and 2016.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized impairment charges related to adjustments to property carrying values of $34.3 million and $68.1 million, respectively, for which the Company’s estimated fair values of these properties were primarily based upon estimated sales prices from (i) signed contracts or letters of intent from third party offers or (ii) discounted cash flow models. These adjustments to property carrying values were recognized in connection with the Company’s efforts to market certain properties and management’s assessment as to the likelihood and timing of such potential transactions and the long-term plan for certain properties. Certain of the calculations to determine fair value utilized unobservable inputs and as such are classified as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Other income, net decreased $3.3 for the three months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to the corresponding period in 2016. This decrease is primarily due to a decrease in income from the Company’s investment in retail store leases related to the termination of a lease during the three months ended September 30, 2016.

Interest expense decreased $9.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to the corresponding period in 2016. This decrease is primarily due to the Company’s utilization of net proceeds from unsecured debt offerings during 2017 and 2016 to payoff secured debt which had higher interest rates. As a result, the Company effectively lowered its overall interest rate on borrowings for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to the corresponding period in 2016.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company incurred early extinguishment of debt charges aggregating $1.8 million in connection with the tender premium on Medium Term Notes that were partially tendered prior to maturity.

Benefit/(provision) for income taxes, net changed $62.1 million to a benefit of $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to a provision of $61.4 million for the corresponding period in 2016. This change is primarily due to (i) a decrease in tax provision of $63.5 million resulting from the recognition of a valuation allowance as a result of the Company’s merger of its taxable REIT subsidiary into a wholly-owned LLC of the Company on August 1, 2016.

Benefit/(provision) for income taxes, net changed $75.5 million to a benefit of $2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to a provision of $73.3 million for the corresponding period in 2016. This change is primarily due to (i) a decrease of $63.5 million resulting from the recognition of a valuation allowance as a result of the Company’s merger of its taxable REIT subsidiary into a wholly-owned LLC of the Company on August 1, 2016 and (ii) a decrease in foreign tax expense of $31.0 million primarily relating to the sale of certain unconsolidated properties during 2016 within the Company’s Canadian portfolio which were subject to foreign taxes at a consolidated reporting entity level, partially offset by (iii) a decrease in tax benefit of $17.1 million primarily related to impairments recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and (iv) an increase of $2.0 million resulting from the favorable settlement of a tax audit during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Equity in income of joint ventures, net decreased $153.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to the corresponding period in 2016.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company acquired, in separate transactions, a controlling interest in three operating properties from certain joint venture partners in which the Company had noncontrolling interests. As a result of these transactions, the Company recorded an aggregate gain on change in control of interests of $71.2 million related to the fair value adjustments associated with its previously held equity interest in the operating properties.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company acquired six operating properties and one development project from a joint venture in which the Company had a noncontrolling interest. As a result of these transactions, the Company recorded an aggregate gain on change in control of interests of $53.1 million related to the fair value adjustments associated with its previously held equity interest in the operating properties.

Equity in income of other real estate investments, net increased $16.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to the corresponding period in 2016. This increase is primarily due to (i) the recognition of cumulative foreign currency translation gain of $14.8 million as a result of the substantial liquidation of the Company’s investments in Canada during 2017 and (ii) an increase in earnings and profit participation from capital transactions within the Company’s Preferred Equity Program of $1.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to the corresponding period in 2016.

Tenant Concentration

The Company seeks to reduce its operating and leasing risks through diversification achieved by the geographic distribution of its properties, avoiding dependence on any single property, and a large tenant base. At September 30, 2017, the Company’s five largest tenants were TJX Companies, The Home Depot, Ahold Delhaize, Bed Bath & Beyond and Albertsons, which represented 3.7%, 2.5%, 2.1%, 1.9% and 1.7%, respectively, of the Company’s annualized base rental revenues including the proportionate share of base rental revenues from properties in which the Company has less than a 100% economic interest.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s capital resources include accessing the public debt and equity capital markets, mortgage and construction loan financing, borrowings under term loans and immediate access to an unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with bank commitments of $2.25 billion which can be increased to $2.75 billion through an accordion feature.

The Company has an ongoing program to redevelop and re-tenant its properties to maintain or enhance its competitive position in the marketplace. The Company is actively pursuing redevelopment opportunities within its operating portfolio which it believes will increase the overall value by bringing in new tenants and improving the assets’ value. The Company has identified three categories of redevelopment, (i) large scale redevelopment, which involves demolishing and building new square footage, (ii) value creation redevelopment, which includes the subdivision of large anchor spaces into multiple tenant layouts, and (iii) creation of out-parcels and pads which are located in the front of the shopping center properties. The Company anticipates its capital commitment toward these redevelopment projects and re-tenanting efforts during the remainder of 2017 will be approximately $75.0 million to $100.0 million. The funding of these capital requirements will be provided by cash flow from operating activities and availability under the Company’s revolving line of credit.

Real Estate Under Development-

The Company is engaged in select real estate development projects, which are expected to be held as long-term investments. As of September 30, 2017, the Company had in progress a total of five active real estate development projects and two additional projects held for future development. The Company anticipates the total remaining costs to complete these projects to be approximately $225.0 million to $275.0 million. The Company anticipates its capital commitment toward these development projects during the remainder of 2017 will be approximately $75.0 million to $100.0 million. The funding of these capital requirements will be provided by cash flow from operating activities and availability under the Company’s revolving line of credit.

Financing Activities

Cash flows used for financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, were $201.4 million, as compared to $711.8 million for the comparable period in 2016.

The Company continually evaluates its debt maturities, and, based on management’s current assessment, believes it has viable financing and refinancing alternatives that will not materially adversely impact its expected financial results. The Company continues to pursue borrowing opportunities with large commercial U.S. and global banks, select life insurance companies and certain regional and local banks. The Company has noticed a continuing trend that, although pricing remains dependent on specific deal terms, spreads for non-recourse mortgage financing stabilized, the unsecured debt markets are functioning well and credit spreads are at manageable levels.

Debt maturities for the remainder of 2017 consist of $12.4 million of consolidated debt, which relates to a non-recourse mortgage that is currently in default for which the Company is working with the special servicer on a resolution.

The Company intends to maintain strong debt service coverage and fixed charge coverage ratios as part of its commitment to maintain its investment-grade debt ratings. The Company may, from time-to-time, seek to obtain funds through additional common and preferred equity offerings, unsecured debt financings and/or mortgage/construction loan financings and other capital alternatives.

Since the completion of the Company’s IPO in 1991, the Company has utilized the public debt and equity markets as its principal source of capital for its expansion needs. Since the IPO, the Company has completed additional offerings of its public unsecured debt and equity, raising in the aggregate over $13.6 billion. Proceeds from public capital market activities have been used for the purposes of, among other things, repaying indebtedness, acquiring interests in open-air shopping centers, funding real estate development projects, expanding and improving properties in the portfolio and other investments.

During February 2015, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which is effective for a term of three years, for the future unlimited offerings, from time-to-time, of debt securities, preferred stock, depositary shares, common stock and common stock warrants. The Company, pursuant to this shelf registration statement may, from time-to-time, offer for sale its senior unsecured debt for any general corporate purposes, including (i) funding specific liquidity requirements in its business, including property acquisitions, development and redevelopment costs and (ii) managing the Company’s debt maturities.

Preferred Stock-

During August 2017, the Company issued 9,000,000 Depositary Shares (the "Series L Depositary Shares"), each representing a one-thousandth fractional interest in a share of the Company's 5.125% Series L Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, $1.00 par value per share. Dividends on the Series L Depositary Shares are cumulative and payable quarterly in arrears at the rate of 5.125% per annum based on the $25.00 per share initial offering price, or $1.28125 per annum. The Series L Depositary Shares are redeemable, in whole or part, for cash on or after August 16, 2022, at the option of the Company, at a redemption price of $25.00 per depositary share, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon. The Series L Depositary Shares are not convertible or exchangeable for any other property or securities of the Company. The net proceeds received from this offering of $217.6 million were used for general corporate purposes, including the reduction of borrowings outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility and the redemption of shares of the Company’s preferred stock.

On August 7, 2017, the Company called for the partial redemption of 9,000,000 of its outstanding depositary shares of the Company’s 6.00% Series I Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, $1.00 par value per share (the "Series L Preferred Stock"), representing 56.25% of the issued and outstanding Series I Preferred Stock. The aggregate redemption amount of $225.0 million plus accumulated and unpaid dividends of $1.9 million, was paid on September 6, 2017. Upon partial redemption, the Company recorded a charge of $7.0 million resulting from the difference between the redemption amount and the carrying amount of the Series I Preferred Stock on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in accordance with the FASB’s guidance on Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. This $7.0 million charge was subtracted from net income/(loss) attributable to the Company to arrive at net income/(loss) available to the Company's common shareholders and used in the calculation of earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

At the Market Continuous Offering Program (“ATM program”) –

During February 2015, the Company established an ATM program, which is effective for a term of three years, pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, with an aggregate gross sales price of up to $500.0 million through a consortium of banks acting as sales agents. Sales of the shares of common stock may be made, as needed, from time to time in “at the market” offerings as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933, including by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions on the NYSE or otherwise (i) at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, (ii) at prices related to prevailing market prices or (iii) as otherwise agreed to with the applicable sales agent.

On August 1, 2017, the Company made a tender offer to purchase any and all of its $300.0 million 4.30% MTN notes outstanding. As a result, the Company accepted the tender of $211.0 million of its $300.0 million outstanding MTN notes on August 10, 2017. In connection with this tender offer, the Company recorded a tender premium of $1.8 million resulting from the partial repayment of this note. Subsequently, in October 2017, the Company announced its intention to redeem the remaining $89.0 million outstanding on November 1, 2017.

Credit Facility -

In February 2017, the Company closed on a $2.25 billion unsecured revolving Credit Facility with a group of banks, which is scheduled to expire in March 2021, with two additional six month options to extend the maturity date, at the Company’s discretion, to March 2022. This Credit Facility, which accrues interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 87.5 basis points (2.10% as of September 30, 2017), can be increased to $2.75 billion through an accordion feature. The Credit Facility replaced the Company’s $1.75 billion unsecured revolving credit facility that was scheduled to mature in March 2018. In addition, the Credit Facility includes a $500.0 million sub-limit which provides the company the opportunity to borrow in alternative currencies including Canadian Dollars, British Pounds Sterling, Japanese Yen or Euros. As of September 30, 2017, the Credit Facility had a balance of $25.0 million outstanding and $0.5 million appropriated for letters of credit.

Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Facility, the Company, among other things, is subject covenants requiring the maintenance of (i) maximum leverage ratios on both unsecured and secured debt and (ii) minimum interest and fixed coverage ratios. The Company is currently in compliance with these covenants. The financial covenants for the Credit Facility are as follows:

Covenant |  | Must Be |  | As of September 30, 2017
Total Indebtedness to Gross Asset Value (“GAV”) |  | <60% |  | 42%
Total Priority Indebtedness to GAV |  | <35% |  | 5%
Unencumbered Asset Net Operating Income to Total Unsecured Interest Expense |  | >1.75x |  | 4.6x
Fixed Charge Total Adjusted EBITDA to Total Debt Service |  | >1.50x |  | 2.8x

For a full description of the Credit Facility’s covenants refer to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of February 1, 2017, filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated January 30, 2017.

Term Loan –

The Company had a $650.0 million unsecured term loan (“Term Loan’) which was scheduled to mature in January 2017, with three one-year extension options at the Company’s discretion. The Term Loan accrued interest at LIBOR plus 95 basis points. During November 2016, the Company repaid $400.0 million of borrowings under the Company’s Term Loan and in January 2017, the Company repaid the remaining $250.0 million balance and terminated the agreement.

Mortgages Payable –

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company (i) consolidated $212.2 million of individual non-recourse mortgage debt (including a fair market value adjustment of $6.2 million) relating to a joint venture operating property which the Company now controls, (ii) paid off $684.6 million of maturing mortgage debt (including fair market value adjustments of $5.7 million) that encumbered 25 operating properties and (iii) obtained a $206.0 million non-recourse mortgage relating to one operating property.

In addition to the public equity and debt markets as capital sources, the Company may, from time-to-time, obtain mortgage financing on selected properties and construction loans to partially fund the capital needs of its real estate development projects. As of September 30, 2017, the Company had over 380 unencumbered property interests in its portfolio.

Dividends –

In connection with its intention to continue to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, the Company expects to continue paying regular dividends to its stockholders. These dividends will be paid from operating cash flows. The Company’s Board of Directors will continue to evaluate the Company’s dividend policy on a quarterly basis as the Board of Directors monitors sources of capital and evaluates the impact of the economy and capital markets availability on operating fundamentals. Since cash used to pay dividends reduces amounts available for capital investment, the Company generally intends to maintain a conservative dividend payout ratio, reserving such amounts as it considers necessary for the expansion and renovation of shopping centers in its portfolio, debt reduction, the acquisition of interests in new properties and other investments as suitable opportunities arise and such other factors as the Board of Directors considers appropriate. Cash dividends paid for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 were $381.2 million and $354.1 million, respectively.

Table of Contents

Although the Company receives substantially all its rental payments on a monthly basis, it generally intends to continue paying dividends quarterly. Amounts accumulated in advance of each quarterly distribution will be invested by the Company in short-term money market or other suitable instruments. On July 25, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.27 per common share payable to shareholders of record on October 4, 2017, which was paid on October 16, 2017. Additionally, on October 24, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors declared an increased quarterly cash dividend of $0.28 per common share, an annualized increase of 3.7%, payable to shareholders of record on January 2, 2018, which is scheduled to be paid on January 16, 2018.

The Board of Directors also declared quarterly dividends with respect to the Company’s various series of cumulative redeemable preferred shares (Series I, Series J, Series K and Series L). All dividends on the preferred shares are scheduled to be paid on January 16, 2018, to shareholders of record on January 2, 2018.

Hurricane Impact -

The impact of Hurricanes Harvey, which hit Texas on August 25, 2017, and Irma, which hit Florida on September 10, 2017, resulted in minimal damage to the Company’s properties located in Texas and Florida.

With respect to Hurricane Maria, which hit the island of Puerto Rico on September 20, 2017, the Company is currently assessing damages at its seven operating properties located throughout Puerto Rico, aggregating 2.2 million square feet of GLA. Two of these operating properties, located in the southern region of the island were less impacted and most tenants have resumed operations, while the remaining five operating properties in the northern region sustained varying amounts of damage. Initial repairs are in progress, however, a final assessment and recovery plan will require additional time. The Company maintains a comprehensive property insurance policy on these properties with total coverage of up to $62.0 million, as well as business interruption insurance with coverage up to $39.3 million in the aggregate, subject to a collective deductible of $1.2 million. The Company anticipates that all damages and any loss of operations sustained will be covered under these existing policies. As further detailed information becomes available, the Company expects to recognize a charge, which it believes will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and/or results of operations. This charge will result from the write-down of the undepreciated portion of the property that has been permanently damaged, which would be less than the replacement costs and offset by insurance proceeds received by the Company.

Other -

The Company is subject to taxes on its activities in Canada, Puerto Rico and Mexico. In general, under local country law applicable to the structures the Company has in place and applicable treaties, the repatriation of cash to the Company from its subsidiaries and joint ventures in Canada, Puerto Rico and Mexico generally is not subject to withholding tax. The Company is subject to and also includes in its tax provision non-U.S. income taxes on certain investments located in jurisdictions outside the U.S. These investments are held by the Company at the REIT level and not in the Company’s taxable REIT subsidiary. Accordingly, the Company does not expect a U.S. income tax impact associated with the repatriation of undistributed earnings from the Company’s foreign subsidiaries.

Funds F rom Operations

Funds From Operations (“FFO”) is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure utilized to evaluate the operating performance of real estate companies. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) defines FFO as net income/(loss) available to the Company’s common shareholders computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), excluding (i) gains or losses from sales of operating real estate assets and change in control of interests, plus (ii) depreciation and amortization of operating properties and (iii) impairment of depreciable real estate and in substance real estate equity investments and (iv) after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.

The Company presents FFO available to the Company’s common shareholders as it considers it an important supplemental measure of our operating performance and believes it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO available to the Company’s common shareholders when reporting results. Comparison of our presentation of FFO available to the Company’s common shareholders to similarly titled measures for other REITs may not necessarily be meaningful due to possible differences in the application of the NAREIT definition used by such REITs.

The Company also presents FFO available to the Company’s common shareholders as adjusted as an additional supplemental measure as it believes it is more reflective of its core operating performance and provides investors and analysts an additional measure to compare the Company’s performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. FFO available to the Company’s common shareholders as adjusted is generally calculated by the Company as FFO available to the Company’s common shareholders excluding certain transactional income and expenses and non-operating impairments which management believes are not reflective of the results within the Company’s operating real estate portfolio.

FFO is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure of real estate companies’ operating performances, which does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and therefore should not be considered an alternative for net income as a measure of liquidity. Our method of calculating FFO available to the Company’s common shareholders and FFO available to the Company’s common shareholders as adjusted may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

Same Property Net Operating Income (“S ame property NOI”)

Same property NOI is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure of real estate companies’ operating performance and should not be considered an alternative to net income in accordance with GAAP or as a measure of liquidity. The Company considers Same property NOI as an important operating performance measure because it is frequently used by securities analysts and investors to measure only the net operating income of properties that have been owned by the Company for the entire current and prior year reporting periods including those properties under redevelopment. It excludes properties under development and pending stabilization; properties are deemed stabilized at the earlier of (i) reaching 90% leased or (ii) one year following a project’s inclusion in operating real estate. Same property NOI assists in eliminating disparities in net income due to the development, acquisition or disposition of properties during the particular period presented, and thus provides a more consistent performance measure for the comparison of the Company's properties.

Table of Contents

Same property NOI is calculated using revenues from rental properties (excluding straight-line rent adjustments, lease termination fees and amortization of above/below market rents) less charges for bad debt, operating and maintenance expense, real estate taxes and rent expense plus the Company’s proportionate share of Same property NOI from unconsolidated real estate joint ventures, calculated on the same basis. The Company’s method of calculating Same property NOI may differ from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

Same property NOI increased by $7.0 million or 3.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to the corresponding period in 2016. This increase is primarily the result of (i) an increase of $3.2 million related to lease-up and rent commencements in the portfolio, (ii) an increase in other property income of $3.3 million and (iii) a decrease of $0.5 million of credit losses.

Same property NOI increased by $11.7 million or 1.7% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, as compared to the corresponding period in 2016. This increase is primarily the result of (i) an increase of $8.2 million related to lease-up and rent commencements in the portfolio, (ii) a decrease of $2.8 million of credit losses and (iii) an increase in other property income of $0.7 million.

Leasing Activity

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company executed 918 leases totaling 7.1 million square feet in the Company’s consolidated operating portfolio comprised of 330 new leases and 588 renewals and options. The leasing costs associated with new leases are estimated to aggregate $58.0 million or $28.74 per square foot. These costs include $45.1 million of tenant improvements and $12.9 million of external leasing commissions. The average rent per square foot on new leases was $18.53 and on renewals and options was $15.70.

Tenant Lease Expirations

The following table sets forth the aggregate lease expirations for each of the next ten years, assuming no renewal options are exercised. For purposes of the table, the Total Annual Base Rent Expiring represents annualized rental revenue, for each lease that expires during the respective year.

Based on the Company’s variable-rate debt balances, interest expense would have increased by $0.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 if short-term interest rates were 1% higher.

The following table presents the Company’s foreign investments in their respective local currencies and the U.S. dollar equivalents:

Foreign Investment (in millions) |
Country |  | Local Currency |  |  | U.S. D ollars |
Mexican real estate investments |  |  | 53.5 |  |  | $ | 4.8 |
Canadian real estate investments |  | 19.1 |  |  | $ | 15.4 |

The Company has not, and does not plan to, enter into any derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Currency fluctuations between local currency and the U.S. dollar, for investments for which the Company has determined that the local currency is the functional currency, for the period in which the Company held its investment result in a cumulative translation adjustment (“CTA”). This CTA is recorded as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The CTA amounts are subject to future changes resulting from ongoing fluctuations in the respective foreign currency exchange rates. Changes in exchange rates are impacted by many factors that cannot be forecasted with reliable accuracy. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the Company substantially liquidated its investments in Canada and as such, recognized a net cumulative foreign currency translation gain of $10.0 million. As of a result of the substantial liquidation of the Company’s foreign investments, any future currency changes, which could have a favorable or unfavorable impact, will be recognized as earnings in Other income/(expense), net in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
