Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited and include the accounts of Alexander’s and its consolidated subsidiaries. All intercompany amounts have been eliminated. In our opinion, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and changes in cash flows have been made. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, as filed with the SEC. We have made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. Subsequent to the issuance of our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, we determined that the $195,708,000 participation in our Rego Park II shopping center mortgage loan was incorrectly classified as an asset, presented as “Rego Park II loan participation,” instead of as a reduction to “mortgages payable, net of deferred debt issuance costs” on our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018. On December 12, 2018, we refinanced this mortgage loan and the interest rate on the existing loan participation was adjusted to equal the interest rate on the refinanced loan. Consequently, we should have considered $195,708,000 of the Rego Park II shopping center mortgage loan liability extinguished as the participation interest is considered the reacquisition of our debt. Accordingly, our consolidated balance sheet for the year ended December 31, 2018 has been restated to reclassify $195,708,000 from “Rego Park II loan participation” to “mortgages payable, net of deferred debt issuance costs.” This reclassification had no impact to our consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income or changes in equity for the three and nine months ending September 30, 2018 or our consolidated statement of cash flows for the nine months ending September 30, 2018. Certain prior year balances have been reclassified in order to conform to the current period presentation. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, “property rentals” of $38,250,000 and $115,109,000, respectively, and “expense reimbursements” of $20,875,000 and $60,149,000, respectively, were grouped into “rental revenues” on our consolidated statements of income in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 205 Presentation of Financial Statements. We operate in one reportable segment.
