Organization and Basis of Presentation |
Organization and Basis of Presentation | 1. Organization and Basis of Presentation Organization JBG SMITH Properties ("JBG SMITH"), a Maryland real estate investment trust, owns, operates and develops mixed-use properties concentrated in amenity-rich, Metro-served submarkets in and around Washington, D.C., most notably National Landing, where through our focus on placemaking, we cultivate vibrant, highly amenitized, walkable neighborhoods. Almost 80.0% of our portfolio is in the National Landing submarket in Northern Virginia. In addition, our third-party real estate services business provides fee-based real estate services. Substantially all our assets are held by, and our operations are conducted through, JBG SMITH Properties LP ("JBG SMITH LP"), our operating partnership. As of December 31, 2025, JBG SMITH, as its sole general partner, controlled JBG SMITH LP and owned 82.0% of its OP Units, after giving effect to the conversion of certain vested long-term incentive partnership units ("LTIP Units") that are convertible into OP Units. JBG SMITH is referred to herein as "we," "us," "our" or other similar terms. References to "our share" refer to our ownership percentage of consolidated and unconsolidated assets in real estate ventures, but exclude our 10.0% subordinated interest in one commercial building and our 33.5% subordinated interest in four commercial buildings (the "Fortress Assets"), as well as the associated non-recourse mortgage loans, held through unconsolidated real estate ventures; these interests and debt are excluded because our investment in each real estate venture is zero, we do not anticipate receiving any near-term cash flow distributions from the real estate ventures, and we have not guaranteed their obligations or otherwise committed to providing financial support. We were organized for the purpose of receiving, via the spin-off on July 17, 2017 (the "Separation"), substantially all the assets and liabilities of Vornado Realty Trust's Washington, D.C. segment. On July 18, 2017, we acquired the management business and certain assets and liabilities of The JBG Companies ("JBG") (the "Combination"). The Separation and the Combination are collectively referred to as the "Formation Transaction." As of December 31, 2025, our Operating Portfolio consisted of 39 operating assets comprising 15 multifamily assets totaling 6,519 units (6,333 units at our share), 22 commercial assets totaling 7.3 million square feet (6.9 million square feet at our share) and two wholly owned land assets for which we are the ground lessor. Additionally, our development pipeline, which consists of owned and entitled land on which we have the potential to commence construction subject to completion of design and/or market conditions, totaled 4.9 million square feet (3.6 million square feet at our share) of estimated potential development density. Our development pipeline excludes unentitled land parcels and land parcels controlled through an option agreement. We derive our revenue primarily from leases with multifamily and commercial tenants. Revenue under our multifamily leases is generally due on a monthly basis with terms of approximately one year or less, and may include income from utility recoveries, parking and other miscellaneous items. Our commercial leases include fixed and percentage rents, and reimbursements from tenants for certain expenses such as real estate taxes, property operating expenses, and repairs and maintenance. In addition, our third-party real estate services business provides fee-based real estate services. Only commercial leases with the U.S. federal government accounted for 10% or more of our total revenue as follows: ​
