KIMCO REALTY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Business and Organization

Kimco Realty Corporation, a Maryland corporation, is a publicly traded owner and operator of open-air, grocery-anchored shopping centers and mixed-use assets. The terms “Kimco,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” each refers to Kimco Realty Corporation and our subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise. The Company, its 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 grocery stores, off-price retailers, home improvement centers, discounters and/or service-oriented tenants. 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.

Weingarten Merger

On August 3, 2021, Weingarten Realty Investors (“Weingarten”) merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving public company (the “Merger”), pursuant to the definitive merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) between the Company and Weingarten entered into on April 15, 2021. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each Weingarten common share was entitled to 1.408 newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock plus $2.89 in cash, subject to certain adjustments specified in the Merger Agreement.

On July 15, 2021, Weingarten’s Board of Trust Managers declared a special cash distribution of $0.69 per Weingarten common share (the “Special Distribution”) paid on August 2, 2021 to shareholders of record on July 28, 2021. The Special Distribution was paid in connection with the Merger and to satisfy REIT taxable income distribution requirements. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Weingarten’s payment of the Special Distribution adjusted the cash consideration paid by the Company at the closing of the Merger from $2.89 per Weingarten common share to $2.20 per Weingarten common share and had no impact on the payment of the common share consideration of 1.408 newly issued shares of Company common stock for each Weingarten common share owned immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company incurred merger related expenses of $50.2 million associated with the Merger. These charges are primarily comprised of severance, professional fees and legal fees. See Footnote 3 of the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further details.

COVID-19 Pandemic

The coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) pandemic continues to impact the retail real estate industry for both landlords and tenants. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, in the near term, will continue to depend on future developments, which are uncertain at this time. The Company’s business, operations and financial results will depend on numerous evolving factors, including the duration and scope of the pandemic, governmental, business and individual actions that have been and continue to be taken in response to the pandemic, the distribution and effectiveness of vaccines, impacts on economic activity from the pandemic and actions taken in response, the effects of the pandemic on the Company’s tenants and their businesses, the ability of tenants to make their rental payments, additional closures of tenants’ businesses and impacts of opening and reclosing of communities in response to the increase in positive COVID-19 cases. Any of these events could materially adversely impact the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or stock price. The Company will continue to monitor the economic, financial, and social conditions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and will assess its asset portfolio for any impairment indicators. In addition, the Company will continue to monitor for any material or adverse effects resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. If the Company has determined that any of its assets are impaired, the Company would be required to take impairment charges, and such amounts could be material.

The development and distribution of COVID-19 vaccines has assisted in allowing many restrictions to be lifted, providing a path to recovery. The U.S. economy continues to build upon the reopening trend as businesses reopen to full capacity and stimulus is flowing through to the consumer. The overall economy continues to recover but several issues including the lack of qualified employees, inflation risk, supply chain bottlenecks and COVID-19 variants have impacted the pace of the recovery.

Table of Contents

Although the Company continues to see an increase in collections of rental payments, the effects COVID-19 have had on its tenants are still heavily considered when evaluating the collectability of the tenant’s total accounts receivable balance, including the corresponding straight-line rent receivable. Management’s estimate of the collectability of accrued rents and accounts receivable is based on the best information available to management at the time of evaluation.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

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 or which the Company has a controlling 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, 2020 (the “10-K”), as certain disclosures in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2021 that would duplicate those included in the 10-K are not included in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Restricted Cash

Restricted deposits are held or restricted for a specific use. The Company had restricted cash totaling $9.2 million and $0.2 million at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, which is included in Cash and cash equivalents on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. This includes cash equivalents of $6.5 million that is held as collateral for letters of credit aggregating to $6.5 million at September 30, 2021.

Other Assets

In connection with the Merger, the Company acquired tax increment revenue bonds issued by an agency in connection with the development of a project in Sheridan, Colorado which mature on December 15, 2039. These Sheridan Redevelopment Agency issued Series B bonds have been classified as held to maturity and were recorded at estimated fair value upon the date of the Merger. The fair value estimates of the Company’s held to maturity tax increment revenue bonds, are based on discounted cash flow analysis, which are based on the expected future sales tax revenues of the project. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the bonds, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, such as market discount rates and unobservable market-based inputs, such as future growth and inflation rates. Interest on these bonds is recorded at an effective interest rate while cash payments are received at the contractual interest rate.

The held to maturity bonds are evaluated for credit losses based on discounted estimated future cash flows. Any future receipts in excess of the amortized basis will be recognized as revenue when received. The credit risk associated with the amortized value of these bonds is low as the bonds are earmarked for repayments from sales and property taxes associated with a government entity. At September 30, 2021, no credit allowance has been recorded.

Commitments and Contingencies

In connection with the Merger, the Company now provides a guaranty for the payment of any debt service shortfalls on the Sheridan Redevelopment Agency issued Series A bonds which are tax increment revenue bonds issued in connection with a development project in Sheridan, Colorado. These tax increment revenue bonds have a balance of $53.7 million outstanding at September 30, 2021. The bonds are to be repaid with incremental sales and property taxes and a public improvement fee ("PIF") to be assessed on current and future retail sales and, to the extent necessary, any amounts we may have to provide under a guaranty. The revenue generated from incremental sales, property taxes and PIF have satisfied the debt service requirements to date. The incremental taxes and PIF are to remain intact until the earlier of the payment of the bond liability in full or 2040.

Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (see Footnote 5 of the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

New Accounting Pronouncements

The following table represents an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) to the FASB’s ASCs that, as of September 30, 2021, 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 2021-05, July 2021, Lessors – Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments (Topic 842) | This ASU amends the lessor lease classification in ASC 842 for leases that include variable lease payments that are not based on an index or rate. Under the amended guidance, lessors will classify a lease with variable payments that do not depend on an index or rate as an operating lease if the lease would have been classified as a sales-type lease or a direct financing lease under the previous ASU 842 classification criteria and sales-type or direct financing lease classification would result in a Day 1 loss. | Effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021 and interim periods therein. | We are currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2021-05 on our consolidated financial statements, but do not believe the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

The following ASU to the FASB’s ASC has been adopted by the Company as of the date listed:

ASU | Description | Adoption Date | Effect on the financial statements or other significant matters
ASU 2020-01, Investments – Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)—Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815 (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force) | The amendments clarify the interaction between the accounting for equity securities, equity method investments, and certain derivative instruments. This ASU, among other things, clarifies that an entity should consider observable transactions that require a company to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting under Topic 323 for the purposes of applying the measurement alternative in accordance with Topic 321 immediately before applying or upon discontinuing the equity method. | January 1, 2021 | The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and/or results of operations.

3. Weingarten Merger

Overview

On August 3, 2021, the Company completed the Merger with Weingarten, under which Weingarten merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving public company. The total purchase price of the Merger was $4.1 billion, which consists primarily of shares of the Company’s common stock issued in exchange for Weingarten common shares, plus $281.1 million of cash consideration. The total purchase price was calculated based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on August 3, 2021, which was $20.78 per share. At the effective time of the Merger, each Weingarten common share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (other than any shares owned directly by the Company or Weingarten and in each case not held on behalf of third parties) was converted into 1.408 shares of newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock. The number of Weingarten common shares outstanding as of August 3, 2021 converted to shares of the Company’s common stock was determined as follows:

Weingarten common shares outstanding as of August 3, 2021 |  |  | 127,784,006 |
Exchange ratio |  |  | 1.408 |
Kimco common stock issued |  |  | 179,919,880 |

Table of Contents

The following table presents the purchase price and the total value of stock consideration paid by Kimco at the close of the Merger (in thousands except share price of Kimco common stock):

|  | Price of Kimco Common Stock |  |  | Equity Consideration Given (Kimco Shares to be Issued) |  |  | Calculated Value of Weingarten Consideration |  |  | Cash Consideration * |  |  | Total Value of Consideration |
As of August 3, 2021 |  | $ | 20.78 |  |  |  | 179,920 |  |  | $ | 3,738,735 |  |  | $ | 320,424 |  |  | $ | 4,059,159 |

* Amounts include additional consideration of $39.1 million relating to reimbursements paid by the Company to Weingarten at the closing of the Merger for transaction costs incurred by Weingarten.

As a result of the Merger, Kimco acquired 149 properties, including 30 held through joint venture programs. The consolidated net assets and results of operations of Weingarten are included in the consolidated financial statements from the closing date, August 3, 2021.

Provisional Purchase Price Allocation

In accordance with ASC 805-10, Business Combinations, the Company accounted for the Merger as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. Based on the value of the common shares issued and cash consideration paid, the total fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Merger was $4.1 billion. The following table summarizes the provisional purchase price allocation based on the Company's initial valuation, including estimates and assumptions of the acquisition date fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed (in thousands):

|  | Provisional Allocation as of September 30, 2021 |
Land |  | $ | 1,166,922 |
Building and improvements |  |  | 4,041,244 |
In-place leases |  |  | 374,281 |
Above-market leases |  |  | 42,260 |
Real estate assets |  |  | 5,624,707 |
Investments in and advances to real estate joint ventures |  |  | 586,248 |
Cash, accounts receivable and other assets |  |  | 242,399 |
Total assets acquired |  |  | 6,453,354 |
Notes payable |  |  | (1,497,632 | )
Mortgages payable |  |  | (317,671 | )
Accounts payable and other liabilities |  |  | (279,414 | )
Below-market leases |  |  | (120,441 | )
Noncontrolling interests |  |  | (179,037 | )
Total liabilities assumed |  |  | (2,394,195 | )
Total purchase price |  | $ | 4,059,159 |

The provisional fair market value of the acquired properties is based upon a valuation prepared by the Company with assistance of a third-party valuation specialist. The Company and valuation specialist are still in the process of reviewing the inputs used by the third-party specialist to ensure reasonableness and that the procedures are performed in accordance with management's policy. Therefore, the final acquisition accounting adjustments, including the purchase price and its allocation, are not yet complete as of this filing. Once the purchase price and allocation are complete, an adjustment to the provisional purchase price or allocation may occur. Additionally, any excess purchase price, which could differ materially, may result in the recognition of goodwill, the amount of which may be significant.

The following table details the provisional weighted average amortization periods, in years, of the purchase price provisionally allocated to real estate and related intangible assets and liabilities acquired arising from the Merger:

|  | Weighted Average Amortization Period (in Years) |
Land |  |  | n/a |
Building |  |  | 50.0 |
Building improvements |  |  | 45.0 |
Tenant improvements |  |  | 4.0 |

Below-market leases |  |  | 16.9 |
Operating right-of-use intangible assets |  |  | 24.2 |
Fair market value of debt adjustment |  |  | 3.8 |

Lessee Leases

The Company currently leases real estate space under non-cancelable operating lease agreements for ground leases and administrative office leases. The Company’s operating leases have remaining lease terms ranging from less than one year to 64.3 years, some of which include options to extend the terms for up to an additional 75 years. The Company does not typically include any of its renewal options in its lease terms for calculating its lease liability as the renewal options allow the Company to maintain operational flexibility unless the Company is reasonably certain it will exercise these renewal options.

The Company’s operating lease liabilities are determined based on the estimated present value of the Company’s minimum lease payments under its lease agreements. The discount rate used to determine the lease liabilities is based on the estimated incremental borrowing rate on a lease-by-lease basis. When calculating the incremental borrowing rates, the Company utilized data from (i) its recent debt issuances, (ii) publicly available data for instruments with similar characteristics, (iii) observable mortgage rates and (iv) unlevered property yields and discount rates. The Company then applied adjustments to account for considerations related to term and security that may not be fully incorporated by the data sets.

In connection with the Merger, the Company obtained $32.6 million of operating right-of-use assets in exchange for new operating lease liabilities related to six properties under operating lease agreements for ground leases. In addition, the Company acquired two properties under finance leasing arrangements that consists of variable lease payments with a bargain purchase option. As a result, the Company obtained finance right-of-use assets of $23.8 million (which are included in Other assets on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets) in exchange for new finance lease liabilities (which are included in Other liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets).

The weighted-average remaining non-cancelable lease term and weighted-average discount rates for the Company’s operating and finance leases as of September 30, 2021 were as follows:

|  | Operating Leases |  |  | Finance Leases |
Weighted-average remaining lease term (in years) |  |  | 25.7 |  |  |  | 2.3 |
Weighted-average discount rate |  |  | 6.62 | % |  |  | 4.44 | %

In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company received $3.6 million in full payment of a mortgage loan receivable which accrued interest at a rate of 4.00% and was scheduled to mature in November 2021.

11. Notes and Mortgages Payable

Notes Payable

In February 2020, the Company obtained a $2.0 billion unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with a group of banks. The Credit Facility is scheduled to expire in March 2024, with two additional six-month options to extend the maturity date, at the Company’s discretion, to March 2025. The Credit Facility is a green credit facility tied to sustainability metric targets, as described in the agreement. The Company achieved such targets, which effectively reduced the rate on the Credit Facility by one basis point. The Credit Facility, which accrues interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 76.5 basis points (0.85% as of September 30, 2021), can be increased to $2.75 billion through an accordion feature. Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Facility, 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. As of September 30, 2021, the Credit Facility had no outstanding balance, appropriations for letters of credit of $1.9 million and the Company was in compliance with its covenants.

In connection with the Merger, the Company assumed senior unsecured notes aggregating $1.5 billion (including fair market value adjustment of $95.6 million), which have scheduled maturity dates ranging from October 2022 to August 2028 and accrue interest at rates ranging from 3.25% to 6.88% per annum. The senior unsecured notes assumed during the Merger have covenants that are similar to the Company’s existing debt covenants for its senior unsecured notes.

In September 2021, the Company issued $500.0 million in senior unsecured notes, which are scheduled to mature in December 2031 and accrue interest at a rate of 2.25% per annum.

Mortgages Payable

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company repaid $137.2 million of mortgage debt (including fair market value adjustment of $1.0 million) that encumbered 16 operating properties.

In connection with the Merger, the Company assumed mortgage debt aggregating $317.7 million (including fair market value adjustment of $11.0 million) that encumber 16 operating properties, which have scheduled maturity dates ranging from April 2022 to August 2038 and accrue interest at rates ranging from 3.50% to 6.95% per annum.

12. Noncontrolling Interests

Noncontrolling interests represent the portion of equity that the Company does not own in entities it consolidates as a result of having a controlling interest or determining that the Company was the primary beneficiary of a VIE in accordance with the provisions of the FASB’s Consolidation guidance. The Company accounts and reports for noncontrolling interests in accordance with the Consolidation guidance and the Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity guidance issued by the FASB. The Company identifies its noncontrolling interests separately within the equity section on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the Company and to the noncontrolling interests are presented separately on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

In connection with the Merger, the Company acquired two consolidated joint ventures structured as DownREIT partnerships. These ventures allow the outside limited partners to redeem their interest in the partnership, and the Company has the option to redeem the interest in cash or shares of the Company's common stock. As of September 30, 2021, the aggregate redemption value of these noncontrolling interests was approximately $41.7 million. In addition, the Company acquired ownership interests in eight consolidated joint ventures in connection with the Merger, which have noncontrolling interests of $134.3 million.

Included within noncontrolling interests are units that were determined to be contingently redeemable that are classified as Redeemable noncontrolling interests and presented in the mezzanine section between Total liabilities and Stockholders equity on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Table of Contents

The following table presents the change in the redemption value of the Redeemable noncontrolling interests for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 (in thousands):

|  | Nine Months Ended September 30, |
|  | 2021 |  |  | 2020 |
Balance at January 1, |  | $ | 15,784 |  |  | $ | 17,943 |

Balance at September 30, |  | $ | 15,784 |  |  | $ | 17,943 |

| (1) | During January 2021, KIM RDC, LLC (“KIM RDC”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and KP Lancewood LLC (“KPR Member”) entered into a joint venture agreement wherein KIM RDC has a 100% controlling interest and KPR Member is entitled to a profit participation. The joint venture acquired two operating properties for a gross fair value of $104.0 million (see Footnote 4 of the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). This joint venture was accounted for as a consolidated VIE (see Footnote 13 of the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements). During June 2021, the two joint venture properties were sold for a combined sales price of $108.0 million of which the KPR Member received a distribution of $2.1 million.

13. Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”)

Included within the Company’s consolidated operating properties at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are 34 and 22 consolidated entities, respectively, that are VIEs for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. In August 2021, the Company acquired 11 of these VIEs in conjunction with the Merger. 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 because the unrelated investors do not have substantive kick-out rights to remove the general or managing partner by a vote of a simple majority or less, and they do not have substantive 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, 2021, total assets of these VIEs were $1.4 billion and total liabilities were $122.5 million. At December 31, 2020, total assets of these VIEs were $1.0 billion and total liabilities were $62.1 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 the entity may experience.

All liabilities of these consolidated VIEs are non-recourse to the Company (“VIE Liabilities”). The assets of the unencumbered VIEs are not restricted for use to settle only the obligations of these VIEs. The remaining VIE assets 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 table below summarizes the consolidated VIEs and the classification of the Restricted Assets and VIE Liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as follows (dollars in millions):

|  | As of September 30, 2021 |  |  | As of December 31, 2020 |
Number of unencumbered VIEs |  |  | 30 |  |  |  | 19 |
Number of encumbered VIEs |  |  | 4 |  |  |  | 3 |
Total number of consolidated VIEs |  |  | 34 |  |  |  | 22 |

14. 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.

17

Table of Contents

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 estimated fair value differs from the carrying value (in thousands):

|  | September 30, 2021 |  |  | December 31, 2020 |
|  | Carrying Value |  |  | Fair Value |  |  | Carrying Value |  |  | Fair Value |
Notes payable, net (1) |  | $ | 7,034,047 |  |  | $ | 7,418,103 |  |  | $ | 5,044,208 |  |  | $ | 5,486,953 |
Mortgages payable, net (2) |  | $ | 482,634 |  |  | $ | 484,699 |  |  | $ | 311,272 |  |  | $ | 312,933 |

| (1) | The Company determined that the valuation of its Senior Unsecured Notes were classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and its unsecured revolving credit facility was classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The estimated fair value amounts classified as Level 2, as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, were $7.4 billion and $5.5 billion, respectively.

| (2) | The Company determined that its valuation of its mortgages loan were 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.

The table below presents the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, aggregated by the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall (in thousands):

|  | Balance at September 30, 2021 |  |  | Level 1 |  |  | Level 2 |  |  | Level 3 |
Marketable equity securities |  | $ | 1,249,125 |  |  | $ | 1,249,125 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | - |

Marketable equity securities |  | $ | 706,954 |  |  | $ | 706,954 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | - |

The table below presents the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 (in thousands):

|  | Balance at September 30, 2021 |  |  | Level 1 |  |  | Level 2 |  |  | Level 3 |
Other investments |  | $ | 9,834 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | 9,834 |

Other investments |  | $ | 5,464 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | 5,464 |

The Company’s estimated fair values of these assets were primarily based upon estimated sales prices from signed contracts or letters of intent from third-party offers, which were less than the carrying value of the assets. The Company does not have access to the unobservable inputs used to determine the estimated fair values of third-party offers. Based on these inputs, the Company determined that its valuation of these investments was classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

15. Incentive Plans

In May 2020, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2020 Equity Participation Plan (the “2020 Plan”), which is a successor to the Restated Kimco Realty Corporation 2010 Equity Participation Plan (together with the 2020 Plan, the “Plans”) that expired in March 2020. The 2020 Plan provides for a maximum of 10,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to be reserved for the issuance of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance awards, dividend equivalents, stock payments and deferred stock awards. At September 30, 2021, the Company had 8.5 million shares of common stock available for issuance under the 2020 Plan.

Table of Contents

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 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 of performance awards is determined using the Monte Carlo method which is 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 $18.0 million and $18.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had $41.9 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock compensation granted under the Plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.8 years.

Defined Benefit Plan

As part of the Merger, the Company assumed sponsorship of Weingarten's noncontributory qualified cash balance retirement plan (“the Benefit Plan”). At the date of the Merger, the Benefit Plan was frozen and as a result no new benefits will be offered to employees who were not already part of the Benefit Plan on the Merger date. The Benefit Plan is expected to be terminated by December 31, 2021. The Benefit Plan maintains a separate account for each participant. Annual additions to each participant’s account included an interest credit of 4.5% as the service credit was suspended upon the freeze. The participant data used in determining the liabilities and costs for the Benefit Plan was collected as of January 1, 2021.

Upon the Merger, the Benefit Plan’s projected benefit obligation and plan assets were fair valued as of the Merger date. The projected benefit obligation, fair value of the plan assets and the Benefit Plan’s funded status at the Merger date were (in thousands):

Projected benefit obligation |  | $ | (73,081) |
Fair value of plan assets |  |  | 74,025 |
Funded status (included in Other assets) |  | $ | 944 |

The weighted-average assumptions used to determine the benefit obligation are shown below:

Discount rate |  |  | 2.52 | %
Salary scale increases |  |  | 3.50 | %
Interest credit rate for cash balance plan |  |  | 4.50 | %

The Benefit Plan’s investment policy is to address the long-term needs of the Benefit Plan and consider the risk tolerances of participants, to select appropriate investments to be offered by the Benefit Plan and to establish procedures for monitoring and evaluating the performance of the investments of the Benefit Plan. The Benefit Plan’s overall objectives for selecting and monitoring investment options are (i) to promote and optimize retirement wealth accumulation, (ii) to provide a full range of asset classes and investment options that are intended to help diversify the portfolio to maximize return within reasonable and prudent levels of risk, (iii) to control costs of administering the Benefit Plan and (iv) to manage the investments held by the Benefit Plan.

The selection of investment options is determined using criteria based on the following characteristics: fund history, relative performance, investment style, portfolio structure, manager tenure, minimum assets, expenses and operation considerations. Investment options selected for use in the Benefit Plan are reviewed at least on a semi-annual basis to evaluate material changes from the selection criteria. Asset allocation is used to determine how the investment portfolio should be split between stocks, bonds and cash. The asset allocation decision is influenced by investment time horizon; risk tolerance; and investment return objectives. The primary factor in establishing asset allocation is demographics of the Benefit Plan. A broad market diversification model is used in considering all these factors, and the percentage allocation to each investment category may also vary depending upon market conditions. Re-balancing of the allocation of the Benefit Plan’s assets occurs semi-annually.

The fair value of plan assets was determined based on publicly quoted market prices for identical assets as of the date of the Merger, which are all classified as Level 1 observable inputs. The fair value and allocation of the plan assets were as follows (in thousands):

|  | Fair Value |  |  | Asset Allocation |
Cash and short-term investments |  | $ | 44,563 |  |  |  | 60 | %
Large company funds |  |  | 11,946 |  |  |  | 16 | %
Fixed income funds |  |  | 7,467 |  |  |  | 10 | %
International funds |  |  | 3,247 |  |  |  | 5 | %
Growth funds |  |  | 2,364 |  |  |  | 3 | %
Small company funds |  |  | 2,225 |  |  |  | 3 | %
Mid company funds |  |  | 2,213 |  |  |  | 3 | %
Total |  | $ | 74,025 |  |  |  | 100 | %

The components of net periodic benefit income include an expected return on plan assets of $0.9 million and an interest cost of $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, which are included in Other income/(expense), net in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

No contributions are anticipated to be made to the Benefit Plan during the remainder of 2021.

16. 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 September 30, |  |  | Nine Months Ended September 30, |
|  | 2021 |  |  | 2020 |  |  | 2021 |  |  | 2020 |
Computation of Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Earnings attributable to participating securities |  |  | (4,078 | ) |  |  | (251 | ) |  |  | (5,749 | ) |  |  | (5,259 | )
Net income/(loss) available to the Company’s common shareholders for basic earnings per share |  |  | 497,307 |  |  |  | (44,999 | ) |  |  | 737,567 |  |  |  | 775,278 |
Distributions on convertible units |  |  | 42 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 3,009 |  |  |  | 119 |
Net income/(loss) available to the Company’s common shareholders for diluted earnings per share |  | $ | 497,349 |  |  | $ | (44,999 | ) |  | $ | 740,576 |  |  | $ | 775,397 |
Weighted average common shares outstanding – basic |  |  | 546,842 |  |  |  | 429,994 |  |  |  | 469,885 |  |  |  | 429,899 |
Effect of dilutive securities (1): |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Equity awards |  |  | 1,718 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 1,837 |  |  |  | 1,496 |
Assumed conversion of convertible units |  |  | 206 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 2,730 |  |  |  | 207 |
Weighted average common shares outstanding – diluted |  |  | 548,766 |  |  |  | 429,994 |  |  |  | 474,452 |  |  |  | 431,602 |
Net income/(loss) available to the Company's common shareholders: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Basic earnings per share |  | $ | 0.91 |  |  | $ | (0.10 | ) |  | $ | 1.57 |  |  | $ | 1.80 |
Diluted earnings per share |  | $ | 0.91 |  |  | $ | (0.10 | ) |  | $ | 1.56 |  |  | $ | 1.80 |

(1) | The effect of the assumed conversion of certain convertible units had an anti-dilutive effect upon the calculation of Net income/(loss) available to the Company’s common shareholders per share. Accordingly, the impact of such conversions has not been included in the determination of diluted earnings per share calculations. Additionally, there were 0.5 million and 1.2 million stock options that were not dilutive as of September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and 2.5 million shares of restricted stock that were not dilutive for the three months ended September 30, 2020.

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.

Executive Overview

Kimco Realty Corporation, a Maryland corporation, is North America’s largest publicly traded owner and operator of open-air, grocery-anchored shopping centers and mixed-use assets in the U.S. The terms “Kimco,” the “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” each refers to Kimco Realty Corporation and our subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise. The Company’s mission is to create destinations for everyday living that inspire a sense of community and deliver value to our many stakeholders.

The Company is a self-administered real estate investment trust (“REIT”) and has owned and operated open-air shopping centers for over 60 years. The Company has not engaged, nor does it expect to retain, any REIT advisors in connection with the operation of its properties. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had interests in 545 U.S. shopping center properties, aggregating 93.7 million square feet of gross leasable area (“GLA”), located in 29 states. In addition, the Company had 58 other property interests, primarily through the Company’s preferred equity investments and other investments, totaling 6.3 million square feet of GLA. The Company’s ownership interests in real estate consist of its consolidated portfolio and portfolios where the Company owns an economic interest, such as properties in the Company’s investment real estate management programs, where the Company partners with institutional investors and also retains management.

22

Table of Contents

The Company’s primary business objective is to be the premier owner and operator of open-air, grocery-anchored shopping centers and mixed-use assets in the U.S. The Company believes it can achieve this objective by:

| ● | increasing the value of its existing portfolio of properties and generating higher levels of portfolio growth;

| ● | increasing cash flows for reinvestment and/or for distribution to shareholders;

| ● | continuing growth in desirable demographic areas with successful retailers; and

| ● | increasing capital appreciation.

The Company further concentrated its business objectives to three main areas:

| ● | Sustainable Growth – Delivering consistent growth from a portfolio of well-located, essential-anchored shopping centers and mixed-use assets.

| ● | Financial Strength – Maintaining a strong balance sheet that will sustain dividend growth, with liquidity to be an opportunistic investor during periods of disruption.

| ● | Opportunistic Investment – Generating additional internal and external growth through accretive acquisitions, redevelopments and investments opportunities with retailers which have significant real estate holdings.

Weingarten Merger

On August 3, 2021, Weingarten Realty Investors (“Weingarten”) merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving public company (the “Merger”), pursuant to the definitive merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) between the Company and Weingarten which was entered into on April 15, 2021. The Merger brought together two industry-leading retail real estate platforms with highly complementary portfolios and created the preeminent open-air shopping center and mixed-use real estate owner in the country. As a result of the Merger, the Company acquired 149 properties, including 30 held through joint venture programs. The increased scale in targeted growth markets, coupled with a broader pipeline of redevelopment opportunities, has positioned the combined company to create significant value for its shareholders. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each Weingarten common share was entitled to 1.408 newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock plus $2.89 in cash, subject to certain adjustments specified in the Merger Agreement.

On July 15, 2021, Weingarten’s Board of Trust Managers declared a special cash distribution of $0.69 per Weingarten common share (the “Special Distribution”) payable on August 2, 2021 to shareholders of record on July 28, 2021. The Special Distribution was paid in connection with the Merger and to satisfy REIT taxable income distribution requirements. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Weingarten’s payment of the Special Distribution adjusted the cash consideration paid by the Company at the closing of the Merger from $2.89 per Weingarten common share to $2.20 per Weingarten common share and had no impact on the payment of the share consideration of 1.408 newly issued shares of Company common stock for each Weingarten common share owned immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger. In connection with the Merger the Company issued 179.9 million shares of common stock.

COVID-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a widespread health crisis that adversely affected businesses, economies and financial markets worldwide. The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the retail sector in which the Company operates. The majority of the Company’s tenants and their operations have been, and may continue to be impacted. Through the duration of the pandemic, a substantial number of tenants had to temporarily or permanently close their business, shortened their operating hours or offer reduced services for some period of time.

The development and distribution of COVID-19 vaccines has assisted in allowing many restrictions to be lifted, providing a path to recovery. The U.S. economy continues to build upon the reopening trend as businesses reopen to full capacity and stimulus is flowing through to the consumer. The overall economy continues to recover but several issues including lack of qualified employees, inflation risk, supply chain bottlenecks and COVID-19 variants have impacted the pace of the recovery.

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, in the near term, will continue to depend on future developments, which continue to be uncertain, including new information that may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19, variants, the distribution and effectiveness as well as the willingness to take the vaccines, the impact of COVID-19 on economic activity, the effect of COVID-19 on the Company’s tenants and their businesses, the ability of tenants to make their rental payments and any additional closures of tenants’ businesses.

The Company continues to monitor the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business, tenants and industry as a whole. The magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the Company’s operations and liquidity remains uncertain as the pandemic continues to evolve globally and within the United States. The Company will continue to monitor the economic, financial, and social conditions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and will assess its asset portfolio for any impairment indicators. In addition, the Company will continue to monitor for any material or adverse effects resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. If the Company determines that any of its assets are impaired, the Company would be required to take impairment charges, and such amounts could be material.

Table of Contents

Although the Company continues to see an increase in collections of rental payments, the effects COVID-19 have had on its tenants are still heavily considered when evaluating the adequacy of the collectability of the tenant’s total accounts receivable balance, including the corresponding straight-line rent receivable. As of September 30, 2021, the Company’s consolidated accounts receivable balance was 43% potentially uncollectible, including receivables from tenants that are being accounted for on a cash basis, and 13% of the Company’s straight-line rent receivables were potentially uncollectible, also inclusive of tenants that are being accounted for on a cash basis. These reserves are primarily attributable to the impact from the COVID-19 pandemic. Management’s estimate of the collectability of accrued rents and accounts receivable is based on the best information available to management at the time of evaluation. The Company will continue to monitor the economic, financial, and social conditions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and will continue to assess the collectability of its tenant accounts receivables. As such, the Company may determine that further adjustments to its accounts receivable may be required in the future, and such amounts may be material.

Cybersecurity

The Company’s Audit Committee receives quarterly briefings from the Company’s Chief Information Officer detailing any existing or emerging threats to the Company as well as the status of projects to strengthen the Company’s security systems and improve cyber readiness.

In addition, the Company has a Cyber Risk Committee (“Cyber Committee”) which reviews and reports on technology-based security issues. The Cyber Committee is comprised of Senior Management from all business units within the Company and meets quarterly to review the controls and procedures in place to identify potential cyber security risks throughout the Company. The Cyber Committee also develops strategies to mitigate risks and other potential breaches which could damage or harm the Company, its employees, data and systems.

The Company utilizes advanced endpoint protection, firewalls, intrusion detection and prevention, threat intelligence, security event logging and correlation, and 3rd party penetration testing, security monitoring and alerting to safeguard employees, data and systems. The Company has cybersecurity coverage incorporated in its insurance policies. The Company has not experienced any information security breaches over the last three years.

The Company requires all its employees to complete annual employee security awareness training and also conducts internal phishing exercises regularly to assess the effectiveness of the training and to identify where additional training is necessary.

Climate Change

The Company recognizes that climate change is one of the most significant stakeholder issues of our times, threatening the viability of economic and environmental systems globally. The scientific community has studied climate change and a consensus exists that warming is occurring outside the boundaries of historical planetary trends due in significant part to human activity. As a real estate portfolio owner, the Company monitors physical and transition risks as well as opportunities posed to its business by climate change. The Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) sets the Company’s overall Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) program objectives and oversees enterprise risk management. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board is responsible for ESG program oversight and performance evaluation.

Climate risks and opportunities are evaluated at both the corporate and individual asset level. The following table summarizes relevant climate risks identified as a part of the Company’s ongoing risk assessment process.

Climate Risk | Description
Physical |
Windstorms | Increased frequency and intensity of windstorms, such as hurricanes, could lead to property damage, loss of property value and interruptions to business operations
Sea Level Rise | Rising sea levels could lead to storm surge and other potential impacts for low-lying coastal properties leading to damage, loss of property value and interruptions to business operations
Flooding | Change in rainfall conditions leading to increased frequency and severity of flooding could lead to property damage, loss of property value and interruptions to business operations
Wildfires | Change in fire potential could lead to permanent loss of property, stress on human health (air quality) and stress on ecosystem services
Heat and Water Stress | Increases in temperature could lead to droughts and decreased available water supply could lead to higher utility usage, supply interruptions and reputational issues in local communities
Transition |
Regulation | Regulations at the federal, state and local levels could impose additional operating and capital costs associated with utilities, energy efficiency, building materials and building design
Reputation | Increased interest among retail tenants in building efficiency, sustainable design criteria and "green leases", which incorporate provisions intended to promote sustainability at the property, could result in decreased demand for outdated space

The Company’s approach in mitigating these risks include but are not limited to (i) carrying additional insurance coverage relating to flooding and windstorms, (ii) maintaining a geographically diversified portfolio which assists in limiting exposure to event driven risks and (iii) creating a form “green lease” for its tenants which incorporates varied criteria that align landlord and tenant sustainability priorities as well as establishing green construction criteria.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020

Results from operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 reflect the results of the Company’s Merger with Weingarten on August 3, 2021. Accordingly, our results of operations will reflect the combined operations for the entire period for future quarters, unlike the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, which only reflects the combined operations for two months. Therefore, our historical financial statements may not be indicative of future operating results.

Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests –

The increase in Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests of $3.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the corresponding period in 2020, is primarily due to (i) an increase in net gain on sale of properties, within consolidated joint ventures, during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the corresponding period in 2020 and (ii) an increase in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests recognized in connection with the Merger.

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.

Debt maturities for the remainder of 2021 consist of: $9.1 million of debt included in the Company’s Preferred Equity Program, assuming the utilization of extension options where available. These 2021 debt maturities are anticipated to be repaid through operating cash flows, debt refinancing, proceeds from property sales and partner capital contributions, as deemed appropriate.

The Company intends to maintain strong debt service coverage and fixed charge coverage ratios as part of its commitment to maintain or improve its unsecured 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 $16.2 billion. Proceeds from public capital market activities have been used for the purposes of, among other things, repaying indebtedness, acquiring interests in open-air, grocery-anchored shopping centers and mixed-use assets, funding real estate under development projects, expanding and improving properties in the portfolio and other investments.

During August 2021, 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 securities for any general corporate purposes, including (i) funding specific liquidity requirements in its business, including property acquisitions and development and redevelopment costs and (ii) managing the Company’s debt maturities.

Common Stock –

During February 2020, the Company extended its share repurchase program for a term of two years, which will expire in February 2022, pursuant to which the Company may repurchase shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, with an aggregate gross purchase price of up to $300.0 million. The Company did not repurchase any shares under the share repurchase program during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had $224.9 million available under this share repurchase program.

During August 2021, the Company established an at-the-market continuous offering program (the “ATM program”) pursuant to which the Company may offer and sell from time to time 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 New York Stock Exchange 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. In addition, the Company may from time to time enter into separate forward sale agreements with one or more banks. During 2021, the Company issued 3,515,500 shares and received net proceeds after commissions of $76.9 million. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had $422.4 million available under this ATM program.

In connection with the Merger, each Weingarten common share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, was converted into 1.408 shares of newly issued shares of Kimco common stock, resulting in approximately 179.9 million common shares issued to effect the Merger.

Credit Facility –

In February 2020, the Company obtained a $2.0 billion Credit Facility with a group of banks. The Credit Facility is scheduled to expire in March 2024, with two additional six-month options to extend the maturity date, at the Company’s discretion, to March 2025. The Credit Facility is a green credit facility tied to sustainability metric targets, as described in the agreement. The Company achieved such targets, which effectively reduced the rate on the Credit Facility by one basis point. The Credit Facility, which accrues interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 76.5 basis points (0.85% as of September 30, 2021), can be increased to $2.75 billion through an accordion feature. Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Facility, 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. As of September 30, 2021, the Credit Facility had no outstanding balance and appropriations for letters of credit of $1.9 million.

Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Facility, the Company, among other things, is subject to maintenance of various covenants. 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, 2021 |
Total Indebtedness to Gross Asset Value (“GAV”) |  | <60% |  |  | 38% |
Total Priority Indebtedness to GAV |  | <35% |  |  | 1% |

For a full description of the Credit Facility’s covenants, refer to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of February 27, 2020, filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated February 28, 2020.

Mortgages Payable –

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company repaid $137.2 million of mortgage debt (including fair market value adjustment of $1.0 million) that encumbered 16 operating properties.

In connection with the Merger, the Company assumed mortgage debt of $317.7 million (including fair market value adjustment of $11.0 million) that encumber 16 operating properties, which have scheduled maturity dates ranging from April 2022 to August 2038 and accrue interest at rates ranging from 3.50% to 6.95% per annum.

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 loan financing to partially fund the capital needs of its real estate development projects. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had over 480 unencumbered property interests in its portfolio.

Commitments and Contingencies –

In connection with the Merger, the Company now provides a guaranty for the payment of any debt service shortfalls on the Sheridan Redevelopment Agency issued Series A bonds which are tax increment revenue bonds issued in connection with a development project in Sheridan, Colorado. These tax increment revenue bonds have a balance of $53.7 million outstanding at September 30, 2021. The bonds are to be repaid with incremental sales and property taxes and a public improvement fee ("PIF") to be assessed on current and future retail sales and, to the extent necessary, any amounts we may have to provide under a guaranty. The revenue generated from incremental sales, property taxes and PIF have satisfied the debt service requirements to date. The incremental taxes and PIF are to remain intact until the earlier of the payment of the bond liability in full or 2040.

COVID-19 –

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve, uncertainty remains regarding the long-term economic impact it will have. As a result, the Company has focused on creating a strong liquidity position, including, but not limited to, maintaining availability under its Credit Facility, cash and cash equivalents on hand and having access to unencumbered property interests.

The Company continues to monitor the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business, tenants and industry as a whole. The magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the Company’s operations and liquidity is uncertain as of the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as this pandemic continues to evolve globally and within the United States. However, if the COVID-19 pandemic continues, such impacts could grow, become material and materially disrupt the Company’s business operations and materially adversely affect the Company’s liquidity.

Dividends –

The Company’s Board of Directors will continue to evaluate the Company’s dividend policy on a quarterly basis as they monitor sources of capital and evaluate 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 dividend payout ratio that reserves 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 common and preferred issuances of stock for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 were $271.0 million and $304.3 million, respectively.

Although the Company receives substantially all of 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. The Company’s Board of Directors will continue to monitor the impact the COVID-19 pandemic has on the Company's financial performance and economic outlook. The Company’s objective is to establish a dividend level that maintains compliance with the Company’s REIT taxable income distribution requirements. On August 13, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.17 per common share payable to shareholders of record on September 9, 2021, which was paid on September 23, 2021. Also, on July 27, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors also declared quarterly dividends with respect to the Company’s classes of cumulative redeemable preferred shares (Classes L and M), which were paid on October 15, 2021, to shareholders of record on October 1, 2021.

On October 26, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors declared quarterly dividends with respect to the Company’s classes of cumulative redeemable preferred shares (Classes L and M), which are scheduled to be paid on January 17, 2022, to shareholders of record on January 3, 2022. Additionally, on October 26, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.17 per common share, payable on December 23, 2021 to shareholders of record on December 9, 2021.

Funds From Operations

Funds From Operations (“FFO”) is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure utilized to evaluate the operating performance of real estate companies. 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) depreciation and amortization related to real estate, (ii) gains or losses from sales of certain real estate assets, (iii) gains and losses from change in control, (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 and (v) after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. The Company also made an election to exclude from its calculation of FFO (i) gains and losses on the sale of assets and impairments of assets incidental to its main business and (ii) mark-to-market changes in the value of its equity securities. As such, the Company does not include gains/impairments on land parcels, gains/losses (realized or unrealized) from marketable securities, allowance for credit losses on mortgage receivables or gains/impairments on preferred equity participations in NAREIT defined FFO. As a result of this election, the Company will no longer disclose FFO available to the Company’s common shareholders as adjusted (“FFO as adjusted”) as an additional supplemental measure. The incidental adjustments noted above which were previously excluded from NAREIT FFO and used to determine FFO as adjusted are now included in NAREIT FFO and therefore the Company believes FFO as adjusted is no longer necessary.

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.

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 or cash flows from operations as a measure of liquidity. Our method of calculating FFO available to the Company’s common shareholders may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

Same Property Net Operating Income (“Same 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 cash flows from operations 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. It excludes properties under redevelopment, 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.

Same property NOI is calculated using revenues from rental properties (excluding straight-line rent adjustments, lease termination fees, TIFs 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 available to the Company’s common shareholders may differ from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

The following is a reconciliation of net income/(loss) available to the Company’s common shareholders to Same property NOI (in thousands):

Same property NOI increased by $23.9 million or 12.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2021, as compared to the corresponding period in 2020. This increase is primarily the result of (i) a decrease in credit losses of $28.7 million due to increased collections, partially offset by (ii) a decrease in revenues from rental properties of $3.7 million primarily related to tenant rent abatements and lower occupancy levels as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and (iii) an increase in non-recoverable operating expenses of $1.1 million.

Leasing Activity

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company executed 817 leases totaling over 5.7 million square feet in the Company’s consolidated operating portfolio comprised of 305 new leases and 512 renewals and options. The leasing costs associated with these new leases are estimated to aggregate $68.1 million or $39.67 per square foot. These costs include $53.1 million of tenant improvements and $15.0 million of external leasing commissions. The average rent per square foot for (i) new leases was $21.12 and (ii) renewals and options was $16.04.

Tenant Lease Expirations

At September 30, 2021, the Company has a total of 8,161 leases in its consolidated operating portfolio. 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, excluding the impact of straight-line rent, for each lease that expires during the respective year.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

The Company’s primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk. The Company periodically evaluates its exposure to short-term interest rates and will, from time-to-time, enter into interest rate protection agreements which mitigate, but do not eliminate, the effect of changes in interest rates on its floating-rate debt. The Company has not entered, and does not plan to enter, into any derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The following table presents the Company’s aggregate fixed rate debt obligations outstanding, including fair market value adjustments and unamortized deferred financing costs, as of September 30, 2021, with corresponding weighted average interest rates sorted by maturity date. The Company had no variable rate debt outstanding at September 30, 2021. The table does not include extension options where available (amounts in millions).

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

On August 3, 2021, the Company completed the Merger and accordingly the Company’s management is in the process of integrating Weingarten’s operations into its internal control over financial reporting, as necessary, to accommodate modifications to its business processes related to the Merger transaction. None of these integration activities are expected to have a material impact on our system of internal control over financial reporting.

Other than as noted above, there have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

The following information supplements and amends our discussion set forth under Part I, Item 3 "Legal Proceedings" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.

The Company is not presently involved in any litigation nor, to its knowledge, is any litigation threatened against the Company or its subsidiaries that, in management's opinion, would result in any material adverse effect on the Company's ownership, management or operation of its properties taken as a whole, or which is not covered by the Company's liability insurance.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Except as set forth below, as of the date of this report, there are no material changes to our risk factors as previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Risks Relating to the Company after Completion of the Merger

We have incurred substantial expenses related to the Merger and may continue to incur additional expenses.

We have incurred substantial expenses in connection with the Merger and may continue to incur additional expenses relating to integrating the business, operations, networks, systems, technologies, policies and procedures of the Company and Weingarten. There are a large number of processes that must be integrated in the Merger, including leasing, billing, management information, purchasing, accounting and finance, sales, payroll and benefits, fixed asset, lease administration and regulatory compliance. While we and Weingarten have assumed that a certain level of transaction and integration expenses would be incurred, there are a number of factors beyond our control that could affect the total amount or the timing of integration expenses.

Our stockholders have been diluted by the Merger and the trading price of shares of the combined company may be affected by factors different from those affecting the price of shares of our common stock before the Merger.

The Merger has diluted the ownership position of our stockholders. Upon completion of the Merger, our legacy stockholders own approximately 71% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock, and legacy Weingarten stockholders own approximately 29% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock. Consequently, our stockholders have less influence over our management and policies after the effective time of the Merger than they currently exercise over our management and policies. The results of our operations and the trading price of our common stock after the Merger may also be affected by factors different from those currently affecting our results of operations and the trading prices of our common stock. For example, some of our and Weingarten’s existing institutional investors may elect to decrease their ownership in the combined company. Accordingly, the historical trading prices and financial results of the Company and Weingarten may not be indicative of these matters for the combined company after the Merger.

Following the Merger, we may be unable to integrate the business of Weingarten successfully or realize the anticipated synergies and related benefits of the Merger or do so within the anticipated time frame.

The Merger involves the combination of two companies which currently operate as independent public companies. We will be required to devote significant management attention and resources to integrating the business practices and operations of Weingarten. Potential difficulties we may encounter in the integration process include the following:

| ● | the inability to successfully combine the businesses of the Company and Weingarten in a manner that permits the Company to achieve the cost savings anticipated to result from the Merger, which would result in some anticipated benefits of the Merger not being realized in the time frame currently anticipated, or at all;

| ● | the inability to successfully realize the anticipated value from some of Weingarten’s assets, particularly from the redevelopment projects;

| ● | lost sales and tenants as a result of certain tenants of either of the Company or Weingarten deciding not to continue to do business with the combined company;

| ● | the complexities associated with integrating personnel from the two companies;

| ● | the additional complexities of combining two companies with different histories, cultures, markets, strategies and customer bases;

| ● | the failure of the combined company to retain key employees of either of the two companies;

37

Table of Contents

| ● | potential unknown liabilities and unforeseen increased expenses, delays or regulatory conditions associated with the Merger; and

| ● | performance shortfalls at one or both of the two companies as a result of the diversion of management’s attention caused by completing the Merger and integrating the companies’ operations.

For all these reasons, you should be aware that it is possible that the integration process could result in the distraction of our management, the disruption of our ongoing business or inconsistencies in our services, standards, controls, procedures and policies, any of which could adversely affect the ability of the Company to maintain relationships with tenants, vendors and employees or to achieve the anticipated benefits of the Merger, or could otherwise adversely affect our business and financial results.

Following the Merger, we have a substantial amount of indebtedness and may need to incur more in the future.

We have substantial indebtedness and, in connection with the Merger, incurred additional indebtedness. The incurrence of new indebtedness could have adverse consequences on our business following the Merger, such as:

| ● | requiring the Company to use a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to service our indebtedness, which would reduce the available cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, development projects, and other general corporate purposes and reduce cash for distributions;

| ● | limiting our ability to obtain additional financing to fund our working capital needs, acquisitions, capital expenditures, or other debt service requirements or for other purposes;

| ● | increasing our costs of incurring additional debt;

| ● | increasing our exposure to floating interest rates;

| ● | limiting our ability to compete with other companies that are not as highly leveraged, as we may be less capable of responding to adverse economic and industry conditions;

| ● | restricting the Company from making strategic acquisitions, developing properties, or exploiting business opportunities;

| ● | restricting the way in which we conduct our business because of financial and operating covenants in the agreements governing our existing and future indebtedness;

| ● | exposing the Company to potential events of default (if not cured or waived) under covenants contained in our debt instruments that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results;

| ● | increasing our vulnerability to a downturn in general economic conditions; and

| ● | limiting our ability to react to changing market conditions in its industry.

The impact of any of these potential adverse consequences could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity.

Counterparties to certain agreements with the Company or Weingarten may exercise their contractual rights under such agreements in connection with the Merger.

We and Weingarten are each party to certain agreements that give the counterparty certain rights following a “change in control,” including in some cases the right to terminate such agreements. Under some such agreements, for example certain debt obligations, the Merger may constitute a change in control and therefore the counterparty may exercise certain rights under the agreement upon the closing of the Merger. Any such counterparty may request modifications of its respective agreements as a condition to granting a waiver or consent under its agreement. There is no assurance that such counterparties will not exercise their rights under the agreements, including termination rights where available, that the exercise of any such rights will not result in a material adverse effect or that any modifications of such agreements will not result in a material adverse effect to the combined company subsequent to the Merger.

We face risks relating to cybersecurity attacks and security incidents which could cause loss of confidential information, disrupt operations and materially affect our business and financial results.

We, like all businesses, are subject to cyberattacks and security incidents, which threaten the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of our systems and information resources. Those attacks and incidents may be due to intentional or unintentional acts by employees, contractors or third-parties, who seek to gain unauthorized access to our or our service providers’ systems to disrupt operations, corrupt data, or steal confidential information. through malware, computer viruses, ransomware, social engineering (e.g., phishing attachments to e-mails) or other vectors.

The risk of a cybersecurity attack, data breach or disruption, including by computer hackers, foreign governments and cyber terrorists, has increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks and intrusions from around the world have increased. Our IT networks and related systems are essential to the operation of our business and our ability to perform day-to-day operations and, in some cases, may be critical to the operations of certain of our tenants. While we maintain some of our own critical information technology systems, we also depend on third-parties to provide important software, technologies, tools and a broad array of services and functions, such as payroll, human resources, electronic communications and certain finance functions, among others. In addition, in the ordinary course of our business, we collect, process, transmit and store sensitive data, including intellectual property, our proprietary business information and that of our customers, suppliers and business partners, as well as personally identifiable information.

Table of Contents

Although we, and our service providers, have various measures in place to maintain and manage the security and integrity of IT networks, related systems and information assets, there can be no assurance that these efforts will be effective or that attempted attacks, breaches or disruptions will not be successful or damaging. Our measures to prevent, detect and mitigate these threats, such as password protection, firewalls, backup servers, threat monitoring, log aggregation, vulnerability scanning, data encryption, periodic penetration testing and multifactor authentication, may not be successful in preventing a security incident or data breach or limiting the effects of such a breach. Furthermore, the security measures employed by third-party service providers may prove to be ineffective at preventing breaches of their systems. This is particularly so because attack methodologies change frequently or are not recognized until launched, and we also may be unable to investigate or remediate incidents because attackers are increasingly using techniques and tools designed to circumvent controls, to avoid detection, and to remove or obfuscate forensic evidence.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, employees working remotely has amplified certain risks to our business. The number of points of potential cyberattack, such as laptops and mobile devices have increased and any failure to effectively manage these risks, including to timely identify and appropriately respond to any cyberattacks or other disruption to our technology infrastructure, may adversely affect our business. Cyber criminals are targeting their attacks on individual employees, utilizing interest in pandemic related information to increase business email compromise scams designed to trick victims into transferring sensitive data or funds, or steal credentials that compromise information systems which extend to multiple platforms throughout the Company.

The primary risks that could directly result from the occurrence of a cyberattack or security incident include operational interruption, damage to our relationship with our tenants, and private data exposure. We could be required to expend significant capital and other resources to address an attack or incident, which may not be covered or fully covered by our insurance and which may involve payments for investigations, forensic analyses, legal advice, public relations advice, system repair or replacement, or other services, in addition to any remedies or relief that may result from legal proceedings. Our financial results may be negatively impacted by such attacks and incidents or any resulting negative media attention.

A cyberattack or security incident could:

| ● | disrupt the proper functioning of our networks and systems and therefore our operations and/or those of certain of our tenants;

| ● | result in misstated financial reports, violations of loan covenants and/or missed reporting deadlines;

| ● | result in our inability to properly monitor our compliance with the rules and regulations regarding our qualification as a REIT;

| ● | result in the unauthorized access to, and destruction, loss, theft, misappropriation or release of proprietary, confidential, sensitive or otherwise valuable information of ours or others, which others could use to compete against us or for disruptive, destructive or otherwise harmful purposes and outcomes;

| ● | result in our inability to maintain the building systems relied upon by our tenants for the efficient use of their leased space;

| ● | require significant management attention and resources to remediate systems, fulfill compliance requirements and/or to remedy any damages that result;

| ● | subject us to regulatory enforcement, including investigative costs and fines or penalties, as the White House, SEC and other regulators have increased their focus on companies’ cybersecurity vulnerabilities and risks;

| ● | subject us to claims for breach of contract, damages, credits, penalties or termination of leases or other agreements or other causes of action; or

| ● | damage our reputation among our tenants, investors and associates.

Moreover, cyber incidents perpetrated against our tenants, including unauthorized access to customers’ credit card data and other confidential information, could diminish consumer confidence and consumer spending and negatively impact our business.
