OPERATIONS UPDATE

COVID-19 Impact on Operations

Fourth quarter and full year 2020 results were negatively impacted by approximately $5.6 million, or $0.06 and $32.5 million, or $0.36 of credit losses and straight-line rent reserves, respectively.

The amounts below represent Acadia’s pro-rata share of credit losses, abatements and straight-line rent reserves primarily associated with the COVID-19 Pandemic (in millions):

Fourth Quarter 2020 Credit Losses and Reserves | Core Same Store |  |  | Core Other |  |  | Funds |  |  | Total |  |  | Per Share |
Credit Loss and Abatements - Billed Rents and Recoveries (a) | $ | 2.8 |  |  | $ | 0.3 |  |  | $ | 0.7 |  |  | $ | 3.8 |  |  | $ | 0.04 |
Straight-Line Rent Reserves | N/A |  |  |  | 1.5 |  |  |  | 0.3 |  |  |  | 1.8 |  |  |  | 0.02 |
Total | $ | 2.8 |  |  | $ | 1.8 |  |  | $ | 1.0 |  |  | $ | 5.6 |  |  | $ | 0.06 |

| (a) | Offsetting the credit losses on billed rents and recoveries for the fourth quarter is a benefit of approximately $2.0 million of cash collections on previously-reserved tenant accounts.

Full Year 2020 Credit Losses and Reserves | Core Same Store |  |  | Core Other |  |  | Funds |  |  | Total |  |  | Per Share |
Credit Loss and Abatements - Billed Rents and Recoveries | $ | 14.7 |  |  | $ | 2.2 |  |  | $ | 2.9 |  |  | $ | 19.8 |  |  | $ | 0.22 |
Straight-Line Rent Reserves | N/A |  |  |  | 9.0 |  |  |  | 3.7 |  |  |  | 12.7 |  |  |  | 0.14 |
Total | $ | 14.7 |  |  | $ | 11.2 |  |  | $ | 6.6 |  |  | $ | 32.5 |  |  | $ | 0.36 |

In the tables above, “Credit loss and Abatements – Billed Rents and Recoveries” represent reserves taken against a tenant’s rent and recoveries that were billable pursuant to the terms of a lease agreement. “Straight-Line Rent Reserves” represent reserves against a tenant’s straight-line rent balance. The balance is derived from the cumulative difference, generally from inception of the lease, between a tenant’s billed rents and the amount of rent recognized in earnings on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease.

Core Portfolio Cash Collections

At December 31, 2020, monthly and quarterly cash collections for the Core Portfolio were as follows:

Asset Type |  | October 2020 |  |  | November 2020 |  |  | December 2020 |  |  | Q4 2020 |

Total Core Portfolio |  | 90% |  |  | 90% |  |  | 91% |  |  | 91% |

Additionally, through February 5, 2021, the Company has collected approximately 91% of January 2021 billed rents and recoveries comprised of 92% and 91% for Street/Urban and Suburban, respectively.

All amounts are based upon pre-COVID billings (original contract rents without regard to deferral or abatement agreements) and exclude the impact of any security deposits applied against tenant accounts.

Core Portfolio Opening Status

Core Portfolio store openings were as follows:

|  |  |  |  | % Open - ABR |  |  |  |  |  |  | % Open - GLA |
|  |  |  |  | As of |  |  |  |  |  |  | As of |

Based on pro-rata gross ABR, approximately 89% of Core Portfolio’s tenants were open for business which was comprised of 86% and 92% for Street/Urban and Suburban, respectively, as of January 31, 2021. Based on pro-rata gross GLA, approximately 92% of Core Portfolio’s tenants were open for business which was comprised of 91% and 92% for Street/Urban and Suburban, respectively, as of January 31, 2021.

Core Portfolio cash collections and openings generally continue to improve but could fluctuate on a monthly basis due to the timing and amount of payments between reported periods which may continue to occur from the COVID-19 Pandemic. Cash collections and store opening data are presented for information purposes and are not intended to represent future trends.

Core Disposition

60 Orange Street, Bloomfield, New Jersey. In January 2021, the Company completed a single-tenant suburban disposition for $16.4 million. The property was sold at attractive pricing and will result in a gain during the first quarter of 2021.

Core Portfolio Operating Results

The Company had a decrease in same-property NOI of 14.2% for the three months ended December 31, 2020 as compared to a decline of 21.4% for the third quarter 2020 predominantly due to credit reserves and abatements on billed Core Portfolio rents and recoveries.

During the fourth quarter, the Company generated a 13.9% increase in rent on a GAAP basis and 5.8% increase in rent on a cash basis, on 20 conforming new and renewal leases aggregating approximately 227,000 square feet.

The Company continued to expand its Core leasing pipeline, which currently exceeds $8.0 million.

2021 GUIDANCE

The following initial guidance is based upon Acadia’s current view of existing market conditions and assumptions for the year ended December 31, 2021 and assumes no further government mandated shut-downs.

The Company estimates (loss) earnings per share to be from ($0.12) to $0.04 per diluted share and FFO before Special Items, to be $0.98 to $1.14 per diluted share. The Company is not providing any guidance for mark-to-market adjustments which will be included in Special Items.

|  | 2021 Guidance |  |  | 2020 Actual |  |
Net (loss) earnings per share attributable to Common Shareholders |  | $(0.12) to $0.04 |  |  | $ | (0.10 | ) |
Depreciation of real estate and amortization of leasing costs |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
(net of noncontrolling interests' share) |  | 1.22 to 1.26 |  |  |  | 1.16 |  |
Impairment charges (net of noncontrolling interest share) |  |  | — |  |  |  | 0.19 |  |
Gain on disposition of properties (net of noncontrolling interests' share) |  | (0.05) to (0.07) |  |  |  | — |  |
Noncontrolling interest in Operating Partnership |  | (0.07) to (0.09) |  |  |  | — |  |
Funds from operations per share attributable to Common Shareholders and Common OP Unit holders |  | $0.98 to $1.14 |  |  | $ | 1.25 |  |
Adjustments for Special Items: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Less: Albertsons unrealized holding gain (net of noncontrolling interest share) |  |  | — |  |  |  | (0.23 | ) |
Funds from operations before Special Items per share attributable to Common Shareholders and Common OP Unit holders |  | $0.98 to $1.14 |  |  | $ | 1.02 |  |

Other assumptions for 2021 guidance include the following:

|  | 2021 Estimated |  |  | 2020 Actual |
(in $ millions) | Low |  |  | High |  |  |  |  |
Interest income (Structured Finance Portfolio) |  | $ | 6 |  |  | $ | 8 |  |  | $ | 8 |
Fund fee income, net |  |  | 16 |  |  |  | 19 |  |  | 21 |
Core and Fund transactional income (a) |  |  | 5 |  |  |  | 12 |  |  | 7 |
Interest expense, net of capitalized interest (b) |  |  | (47 | ) |  |  | (49 | ) |  |  | (46 | )

| (a) | 2021 FFO before Special Items guidance assumes the continued monetization of shares in Albertsons but excludes any unrealized mark-to-market adjustments on Albertsons shares. 2020 FFO before Special Items includes the realized gains on the sale of Albertsons shares.

| (b) | Includes above/below market interest, amortization of finance costs and finance lease interest.

The full year 2021 guidance assumes the continuation of elevated COVID-19 impacts through at least the first half of 2021, with an expectation of improving operating results in the latter portion of 2021. The improvement is anticipated from rent commencements on newly executed leases along with reduced credit reserves as tenant re-openings (primarily within our Street portfolio) occur. Additionally, given the ongoing uncertainties resulting from COVID-19, the 2021 guidance does not incorporate any assumptions involving adjustments to its straight-line rent reserves or predictions of the variability that inherently results from those tenants that are, or may be subsequently classified, on the cash basis of accounting. The impact of such amounts could be material. Accordingly, the Company will update its guidance throughout 2021, as appropriate, to reflect such items.

ACADIA REALTY TRUST AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Financial Highlights:

| (a) | For additional information and analysis concerning the Company’s balance sheet and results of operations, reference is made to the Company’s quarterly supplemental disclosures for the relevant periods furnished on Form 8-K to the SEC and included on the Company’s website at www.acadiarealty.com.

| (b) | Diluted earnings and (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised or converted into common shares. The effect of the conversion of common units of partnership interest (“OP Units”) in Acadia Realty Limited Partnership, the “Operating Partnership” of the Company, is not reflected in the above table as they are exchangeable for Common Shares on a one-for-one basis. The income allocable to such units is allocated on the same basis and reflected as noncontrolling interests in the consolidated financial statements. As such, the assumed conversion of these OP Units would have no net impact on the determination of diluted earnings per share.

| (c) | The Company considers funds from operations (“FFO”) as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) and net property operating income (“NOI”) to be appropriate supplemental disclosures of operating performance for an equity REIT due to their widespread acceptance and use within the REIT and analyst communities. In addition, the Company believes that given the atypical nature of certain unusual items (as further described below), “FFO before Special Items” is also an appropriate supplemental disclosure of operating performance. FFO, FFO before Special Items and NOI are presented to assist investors in analyzing the performance of the Company. They are helpful as they exclude various items included in net income (loss) that are not indicative of the operating performance, such as gains (losses) from sales of real estate property, depreciation and amortization, and impairment of real estate property. In addition, NOI excludes interest expense and FFO before Special Items excludes certain unusual items (as further described below). The Company’s method of calculating FFO and NOI may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. Neither FFO nor FFO before Special Items represent cash generated from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and is not indicative of cash available to fund all cash needs, including distributions. It should not be considered as an alternative to net income for the purpose of evaluating the Company’s performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Consistent with the NAREIT definition, the Company defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (losses) from sales of real estate property, plus depreciation and amortization, impairment of real estate property, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Also consistent with NAREIT’s definition of FFO, the Company has elected to include gains and losses incidental to its main business (including those related to its RCP investments such as Albertsons) in FFO. FFO before Special Items begins with the NAREIT definition of FFO and further adjusts FFO to take into account FFO without regard to certain unusual items including charges, income and gains that management believes are not comparable and indicative of the results of the Company’s operating real estate portfolio.

| (d) | The pro-rata share of NOI is based upon the Operating Partnership’s stated ownership percentages in each venture or Fund’s operating agreement. Does not include the Operating Partnership's share of NOI from unconsolidated joint ventures within the Funds.
