Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited financial statements of EastGroup Properties, Inc. (“EastGroup” or “the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In management’s opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements contained in the 2017 annual report on Form 10-K and the notes thereto. Certain reclassifications have been made in the 2017 consolidated financial statements to conform to the 2018 presentation.
