Equity [Abstract] |
Equity | Equity Non-controlling Interests Common units in the Operating Partnership Common units in the operating partnership consisted of 2,382,563 common units of partnership interests, or common units, not owned by us. Common units and shares of our common stock have essentially the same economic characteristics, as they share equally in the total net income or loss distributions of our operating partnership. Investors who own common units have the right to cause our operating partnership to redeem any or all of their common units for cash equal to the then-current market value of one share of common stock or, at our election, issue shares of our common stock in exchange for common units on a one-for-one basis. Non-controlling interest—members in consolidated entities Non-controlling interest—members in consolidated entities refers to our joint venture partner, Media Center Partners, LLC, a California limited liability company (“MCP”), with which we have entered into a joint venture, Hudson MC Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Pinnacle JV”), to acquire The Pinnacle, a two-building (Pinnacle I and Pinnacle II), 625,640 square-foot office property located in Burbank, California. As of March 31, 2015, we owned a 65.0% interest in the Pinnacle JV, which owns the 625,640 square-foot project known as The Pinnacle. As of December 31, 2012 and until the acquisition by the Pinnacle JV of the 231,864 square-foot Pinnacle II building on June 14, 2013, we owned a 98.25% interest in the Pinnacle JV, which owns the 393,776 square-foot Pinnacle I building. 6.25% series A cumulative redeemable preferred units of the Operating Partnership 6.25% series A cumulative redeemable preferred units of the Operating Partnership are 407,066 series A preferred units of partnership interest in the Operating Partnership, or series A preferred units, that are not owned by the Company. These series A preferred units are entitled to preferential distributions at a rate of 6.25%per annum on the liquidation preference of $25.00 per unit and became convertible at the option of the holder into common units or redeemable into cash or, at the Company’s election, exchangeable for registered shares of common stock, after June 29, 2013. For a description of the conversion and redemption rights of the series A preferred units, please see “Description of the Partnership Agreement of Hudson Pacific Properties, L.P.—Material Terms of Our Series A Preferred Units” in our June 23, 2010 Prospectus. 8.375% Series B cumulative redeemable preferred stock 8.375% series B cumulative redeemable preferred stock are 5,800,000 shares of 8.375% preferred stock, with a liquidation preference of $25.00 per share, $0.01 par value per share. In December 2010, we completed the public offering of 3,500,000 share of our series B preferred stock (including 300,000 shares of series B preferred stock issued and sold pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares in part). Total proceeds from the offering, after deducting underwriting discount, were approximately $83.9 million (before transaction costs). On January 23, 2012, we completed the public offering of 2,300,000 of our series B cumulative preferred stock (including 300,000 shares of series B preferred stock issued and sold pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase additional shares in full). Total proceeds from the offering, after deducting underwriting discount, were approximately $57.5 million (before transaction costs). Dividends on our series B preferred stock are cumulative from the date of original issue and payable quarterly on or about the last calendar day of each March, June, September and December, at the rate of 8.375% per annum of its $25.00 per share liquidation preference (equivalent to $2.0938 per share per annum). If, following a change of control of the Company, either our series B preferred stock (or any preferred stock of the surviving entity that is issued in exchange for our series B preferred stock) or the common stock of the surviving entity, as applicable, is not listed on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, or quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market, or NASDAQ (or listed or quoted on a successor exchange or quotation system), holders of our series B preferred stock will be entitled to receive cumulative cash dividends from, and including, the first date on which both the change of control occurred and either our series B preferred stock (or any preferred stock of the surviving entity that is issued in exchange for our series B preferred stock) or the common stock of the surviving entity, as applicable, is not so listed or quoted, at the increased rate of 12.375% per annum per share of the liquidation preference of our series B preferred stock (equivalent to $3.09375 per annum per share) for as long as either our series B preferred stock (or any preferred stock of the surviving entity that is issued in exchange for our series B preferred stock) or the common stock of the surviving entity, as applicable, is not so listed or quoted. Except in instances relating to preservation of our qualification as a REIT or in connection with a change of control of the Company, our series B preferred stock is not redeemable prior to December 10, 2015. On and after December 10, 2015, we may redeem our series B preferred stock in whole, at any time, or in part, from time to time, for cash at a redemption price of $25.00 per share, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends to, but not including, the date of redemption. If at any time following a change of control either our series B preferred stock (or any preferred stock of the surviving entity that is issued in exchange for our series B preferred stock) or the common stock of the surviving entity, as applicable, is not listed on the NYSE or quoted on NASDAQ (or listed or quoted on a successor exchange or quotation system), we will have the option to redeem our series B preferred stock, in whole but not in part, within 90 days after the first date on which both the change of control has occurred and either our series B preferred stock (or any preferred stock of the surviving entity that is issued in exchange for our series B preferred stock) or the common stock of the surviving entity, as applicable, is not so listed or quoted, for cash at $25.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date. Our series B preferred stock has no maturity date and will remain outstanding indefinitely unless redeemed by us, and it is not subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption and is not convertible into any of our other securities. For a full description of the Series B cumulative redeemable preferred stock, please see “Description of our Preferred Stock” in our December 7, 2010 Prospectus. January 2014 Common Stock Offering On January 28, 2014, we completed the public offering of 8,250,000 shares of common stock and the exercise of the underwriters’ option to purchase an additional 1,237,500 shares of our common stock at the public offering price of $21.50 per share. Total proceeds from the public offering, after underwriters’ discount, were approximately $195.8 million (before transaction costs). January 2015 Common Stock Offering On January 20, 2015, we completed the public offering of 11,000,000 shares of common stock and the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option to purchase an additional 1,650,000 shares of our common stock at the public offering price of $31.75 per share. Total proceeds from the public offering, after underwriters’ discount, were approximately $385.6 million (before transaction costs). Dividends During the first quarter for 2015, we declared dividends on our common stock and non-controlling common partnership interests of $0.125 per share and unit. We also declared dividends on our series A preferred partnership interests of $0.3906 per unit. In addition, we declared dividends on our series B preferred shares of $0.5234 per share. The first quarter dividends were declared on March 9, 2015 to holders of record on March 20, 2015. Taxability of Dividends Earnings and profits, which determine the taxability of distributions to stockholders, may differ from income reported for financial reporting purposes because of the differences for federal income tax purposes in the treatment of loss on extinguishment of debt, revenue recognition, and compensation expense and in the basis of depreciable assets and estimated useful lives used to compute depreciation. Stock-Based Compensation The Board of Directors awards restricted shares to non-employee board members on an annual basis as part of such board members’ annual compensation and to newly elected non-employee board members in accordance with our Non-Employee Director Compensation Program. The share-based awards are generally issued in the second quarter, and the individual share awards vest in equal annual installments over the applicable service vesting period, which is three years. In addition, the Board of Directors awards restricted shares to certain employees on an annual basis as part of the employees’ annual compensation. The share-based awards are generally issued in the fourth quarter, and the individual share awards vest in equal annual installments over the applicable service vesting period, which is three years. The following table summarizes the restricted share activity for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and status of all unvested restricted share awards to our non-employee board members and employees at March 31, 2015:

We recognize the total compensation expense for time-vested shares on a straight-line basis over the vesting period based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant. Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. Outperformance Programs In each of 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015, the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors adopted a Hudson Pacific Properties, Inc. Outperformance Program (individually, the “2012 OPP,” the “2013 OPP,” the “2014 OPP” and the “2015 OPP” and, together, the “OPPs”). Participants in the 2012 OPP, 2013 OPP, 2014 OPP and 2015 OPP may earn, in the aggregate, up to $10 million, $11 million, $12 million, and $15 million, respectively, of stock-settled awards based on our Total Shareholder Return, or TSR, for the three-year period beginning January 1 of the year in which the applicable OPP was adopted and ending December 31 of 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively. The 2014 OPP and the 2015 OPP provide for target bonus pools of $2.4 million and $3.8 million, re spectively, that would be attained if the Company achieves during the applicable performance period a TSR equal to that of the SNL REIT Index and a 10.5% simple annual TSR. Under each OPP, participants will be entitled to share in a performance pool with a value, subject to the applicable dollar-denominated cap described above, equal to the sum of: (i) 4% of the amount by which our TSR during the applicable performance period exceeds 9% simple annual TSR (the “absolute TSR component”), plus (ii) 4% of the amount by which our TSR during the applicable performance period exceeds that of the SNL Equity REIT Index (determined on a percentage basis that is then multiplied by the sum of (A) our market capitalization on that date, plus (B) the aggregate per share dividend over the applicable performance period through such date) (the “relative TSR component”), except that the relative TSR component will be reduced on a linear basis from 100% to zero percent for absolute TSR ranging from 7% to zero percent simple annual TSR over the applicable performance period. In addition, the relative TSR component may be a negative value equal to 4% of the amount by which we underperform the SNL Equity REIT Index by more than 3% per year during the applicable performance period (if any). With respect to the 2013 OPP, if we attain pro-rated TSR performance goals during 2013 and/or 2014 that yield hypothetical bonus pools of up to $2 million for 2013 performance and/or up to $4 million for combined 2013/2014 performance, stock awards issued under the final bonus pool at the end of the applicable performance period will cover a number of shares in the aggregate at least equal to the number of shares that would have been subject to stock awards issued at the end of 2013 or 2014 (whichever is greater) based on our TSR performance and common stock price for such prior years (subject to reduction to comply with the $11 million bonus pool limitation). At the end of the applicable three-year performance period, participants who remain employed with us will be paid their percentage interest in the bonus pool as stock awards based on the value of our common stock at the end of the performance period. Half of each such participant’s bonus pool interest will be paid in fully vested shares of our common stock and the other half will be paid in RSUs that vest in equal annual installments over the two years immediately following the applicable performance period (based on continued employment) and which carry tandem dividend equivalent rights. However, if the applicable performance period is terminated in connection with a change in control, OPP awards will be paid entirely in fully vested shares of our common stock immediately prior to the change in control. In addition to these share/RSU payments, each OPP award entitles its holder to a cash payment equal to the aggregate dividends that would have been paid during the applicable performance period on the total number of shares and RSUs ultimately issued or granted in respect of such OPP award, had such shares and RSUs been outstanding throughout the performance period. If a participant’s employment is terminated without “cause,” for “good reason” or due to the participant’s death or disability during the applicable performance period (referred to as qualifying terminations), the participant will be paid his or her OPP award at the end of the performance period entirely in fully vested shares (except for the performance period dividend equivalent, which will be paid in cash at the end of the performance period). Any such payment will be pro-rated in the case of a termination without “cause” or for “good reason” by reference to the participant’s period of employment during the applicable performance period. If we experience a change in control or a participant experiences a qualifying termination of employment, in either case, after the end of the applicable performance period, any unvested RSUs that remain outstanding will accelerate and vest in full upon such event. With respect to the 2012 OPP, we attained the maximum $10.0 million bonus pool. Only 75% of the participation intere sts remained outstanding at the end of the 2012 OPP performance period; therefore we granted 125,477 shares of common stock and 125,475 RSUs with respect to the outstanding participation interests. The cost of the 2012 OPP, 2013 OPP, the 2014 OPP and the 2015 OPP (approximately $2.62 million, $3.52 million, $3.21 million and $3.98 million, respectively, subject to a forfeiture adjustment equal to 6%, 6% , 10% and 6%, respectively, of the total cost) will be amortized through the final vesting period under a graded vesting expense recognition schedule. The 2012 OPP, 2013 OPP, 2014 OPP and 2015 OPP were valued, in accordance with ASC 718, at an aggregate of approximately $3.49 million, $4.14 million, $3.21 million and $4.27 million, respectively, utilizing a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate the probability of the performance vesting conditions being satisfied. The Monte Carlo simulation used a statistical formula underlying the Black-Scholes and binomial formulas and such simulation was run 100,000 times. For each simulation, the payoff is calculated at the settlement date, which is then discounted to the award date at a risk-free interest rate. The average of the values over all simulations is the expected value of the unit on the award date. Assumptions used in the valuations included (1) factors associated with the underlying performance of the Company’s stock price and total shareholder return over the term of the performance awards including total stock return volatility and risk-free interest and (2) factors associated with the relative performance of the Company’s stock price and total shareholder return when compared to the SNL Equity REIT Index. The valuation was performed in a risk-neutral framework, so no assumption was made with respect to an equity risk premium. The fair value of the OPP awards is based on the sum of: (1) the present value of the expected payoff to the awards on the measurement date, if the TSR over the applicable measurement period exceeds performance hurdles of the absolute and the relative TSR components; and (2) the present value of the distributions payable on the awards. The ultimate reward realized on account of the OPP awards by the holders of the awards is contingent on the TSR achieved on the measurement date, both in absolute terms and relative to the TSR of the SNL Equity REIT Index. The per unit fair value of each 2012 OPP award, 2013 OPP award, 2014 OPP award and 2015 OPP award was estimated on the date of grant using the following assumptions in the Monte Carlo valuation: expected price volatility for the Company and the SNL Equity REIT index of 36% and 35%, 33% and 25%, and 28% and 26% and 22% and 22%, respectively; a risk-free rate of 0.40%, 0.38%, 0.77% and 1.13%, respectively; and total dividend payments over the measurement period of $1.62, $1.50, $1.50 and $1.50 , respectively, per share. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, $2.3 million and $1.4 million, respectively, of non-cash compensation expense for all stock compensation was recognized as additional paid-in capital, of which $2.1 million and $1.3 million, respectively, was included in general and administrative expenses, with the remaining $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, of stock compensation capitalized to tenant improvement and deferred leasing costs and lease intangibles, net.
